Portfolio Management Discussion & Analysis - Unaudited
Across financial markets, the 12-months ended January 31, 2026, could easily be characterized as ongoing uncertainty. Much of the uncertainty stemmed from the new Trump administration in Washington and the seemingly daily changes to policy announcements. Implications of DOGE, the One Big Beautiful Bill, Liberation Day tariff reform, and the longest government shutdown in U.S. history kept market participants on their toes throughout the year. In addition, investors had to contend with mixed economic and inflation data, mounting geopolitical tensions, and dueling optimism and cynicism regarding rapid advancements in artificial intelligence. Amidst all of this, Federal Reserve (the Fed) rate policy felt almost like background noise but, of course, still heavily influenced fixed income markets. After much anticipation, the Fed resumed policy easing by cutting rates in September, October, and December, but left the future path uncertain. Despite volatility throughout the year, the U.S. Treasury market ultimately benefited from curve steeping, with the 5-year falling 55 basis points and the 30-year rising 8 basis points. The Bloomberg US Treasury Total Return index returned +5.67% during the period.
Within the municipal market, investment-grade municipals largely followed the path of the U.S. Treasury market. Short-term, high-grade rates fell over 40 basis points and the Bloomberg Municipal Bond Index returning +4.70%. However, the municipal market also contended with its own technical factors. Record new-issue supply proved to be the prevailing theme, with total issuance over $575 billion, a 17% increase compared to the prior year and 42% higher than the trailing 10-year average. The heavy supply was absorbed by steady investor demand, keeping the market relatively balanced. Total inflows into all municipal funds and exchange-traded funds (ETFs) exceeded $50 billion. However, high-yield municipal funds displayed softer demand and pockets of outflow activity. Combined with heavy supply pressure, this led to underperformance in high-yield municipals. The Bloomberg Barclays Municipal High Yield Index returned +2.68% over the 12-month period. Given the underperformance, high-yield municipals did not experience the same degree of spread tightening as investment-grade municipals or other fixed-income asset classes, increasing the relative attractiveness of the asset class.
A notable event in the high-yield municipal market was the demise of the Easterly High Income Municipal Bond Fund (the Easterly Fund) which fell from $340 million in assets in October 2024 to $9 million by mid-2025. We detailed this event in our August 2025 newsletter (which can be found on www.lindcapitalpartners.com). In summary, the open-end mutual fund faced accelerating investor redemptions and,
1
Portfolio Management Discussion & Analysis - Unaudited (continued)
due to the mismatch between daily fund liquidity and illiquid underlying assets, was unable to efficiently liquidate positions to fulfill redemptions. This, combined with a high percentage of speculative and distressed credits in the portfolio, caused a precipitous drop in the Easterly Funds net asset value (NAV) and ultimately a full liquidation at fire-sale prices. This proved to be a one-off event and did not spark any contagion across the high-yield market. Our biggest takeaways from the Easterly Fund debacle support our core investment philosophies: We believe that investment structure needs to match the strategy and asset class (a mismatch can have catastrophic consequences), fundamental credit analysis is the foundation of every decision, and opportunistic capital deployment during periods of dislocation can significantly benefit long-term investors. In fact, we were able to strategically purchase select assets from the Easterly Fund portfolio that we believed offered very attractive value.
For the 12-months ended January 31, 2026, the Lind Capital Partners Municipal Credit Income Fund (the Fund) narrowly outperformed the Index, with a total return of +2.73% versus +2.68% for the Index. The following factors contributed positively to the Fund performance throughout the year:
| ● | Outperformance in two of the Funds highest weighted sectors, Senior Living and Charter Schools. |
| ● | The Funds intentional underweight to the Tobacco Securitization sector, which is heavily weighted in the Index and underperformed during the period, contributed positively to the Funds relative outperformance. |
| ● | Strong individual credit performances, including several individual positions returning >10% during the period. |
| ● | Culmination of two long-term credit theses, resulting in execution or announcement of planned full redemptions at par. |
| ● | High coupon income outweighing modest price depreciation. |
For the 12-months ended January 31, 2026, detractors from performance included:
| ● | Underperformance in the Economic Development and Higher Education sector, largely driven by two individual holdings. |
| ● | Temporary price dislocation as a result of the Easterly Fund liquidation. |
| ● | General market conditions presented pockets of volatility and upward pressure on yields, which limited price performance, broadly. |
Effects of derivatives and leverage on Fund performance:
| ● | None. The Fund intentionally does not utilize derivatives or leverage. |

Portfolio Management Discussion & Analysis - Unaudited (continued)
Throughout the 12-month period, there was no material change to the Funds investment strategy. With the Fund continuing to grow assets under management, we were able to capitalize on the favorable yield environment. Given the heavy new-issue supply, the primary market provided excellent opportunities to deploy capital. We were also able to act opportunistically in the secondary market, particularly during short periods of outflows from high-yield funds and, as mentioned, during the Easterly Fund sell-off. Through the 12-month period ended January 31, 2026, the average yield-to-worst on portfolio purchases was 6.61%. Given the attractive yield environment, we looked for opportunities to relative value swap out of lower yielding positions and redeploy capital. The weighted average yield-to-worst on portfolio credit sales was 5.44%. The Fund also experienced over $2 million in positions called (redeemed by Borrower), which provided additional opportunity to trade up in yield as capital was redeployed. We continued to maintain a constructive view on the overall credit environment. While we paid close attention to sector specific risks, such as the potential funding threat to Higher Education from the Trump administration, no material concerns developed over the period. We are also paying close attention to budget policy impacts on the Healthcare sector. Across the portfolio, any credit stress has been isolated to specific projects, without more systemic concerns. As a result, our sector allocation remained relatively consistent, with a slight uptick in Charter Schools (22% vs. 16% last year) primarily driven by the prevalence of new issue deals in this sector and our positive credit outlook. Overall, we have confidence that the Fund is well positioned from an individual credit and sector exposure standpoint
Looking ahead, we expect to see another year of heavy new-issue supply, which should provide abundant investment opportunities. As spreads across other fixed-income asset classes have tightened, yields on non-rated municipals look very attractive on a relative basis. There are also growing concerns surrounding the private credit markets, which may cause income-oriented investors to look to allocate capital elsewhere. These factors could drive heavier inflows into our asset class. Should strong demand outweigh anticipated heavy supply, we could see some compression in yield. We will be monitoring both of these market factors closely in the coming year. However, in our opinion, the non-rated market still presents very compelling investment opportunities and attractive tax-exempt yields. The Fund is in a great position to capitalize on the environment as it continues to scale.

Important Risk Information
Performance data quoted represents past performance. Past performance does not guarantee future results. The investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate so that an investors shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. For performance current to the most recent month end, please call 833-615-3031.
Investment involves risk, including loss of principal. There is no guarantee that the Fund will achieve its investment objectives.
An investment in the Fund is appropriate for investors who can bear the risks associated with the limited liquidity of the Funds shares and should be viewed as a long-term investment. Investors will not be able to redeem shares daily because the Fund is a closed-end fund operating as an interval fund. The Funds shares are not traded on an active market and there is currently no secondary market for the shares, nor does the Fund expect a secondary market in the shares to develop.
Fixed income investments are affected by a number of risks, including fluctuation in interest rates, credit risk, and prepayment risk. In general, as prevailing interest rates rise, fixed income prices will fall. Credit risk is the risk that issuers and counter parties will not make payments on securities and other investments held by the Fund, resulting in losses to the Fund. Generally, the longer the maturity and the lower the credit quality of a security, the more sensitive it is to credit risk. The Fund invests in high yield securities, also known as high yield or junk bonds. High yield securities provide greater income and opportunity for gain but entail greater risk of loss of principal.
The Fund is subject to municipal bond risk, which is the risk that the Fund may be affected significantly by the economic, regulatory or political developments affecting the ability of obligors of municipal bonds to pay interest or repay principal. While the Fund intends to invest in municipal bond free from federal income tax, income from municipal bonds held by the Fund could be declared taxable because of, among other things, unfavorable changes in tax laws, adverse interpretations by the Internal Revenue Service or state tax authorities, or noncompliant conduct of a bond issuer or other obligated party. Investments in taxable municipal bonds and certain derivatives utilized by the Fund may cause the Fund to have taxable investment income.
There is a risk that a particular investment may be difficult to purchase or sell and that the Fund may be unable to sell illiquid investments at an advantageous time or price or achieve its desired level of exposure to a certain sector. Illiquid securities may trade at a discount from comparable, more liquid investments. The Fund is non-diversified, which means it may be invested in a limited number of issuers and susceptible to any economic, political and regulatory events than a more diversified fund.

| NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
| January 31, 2026 |
| 1. | ORGANIZATION |
Lind Capital Partners Municipal Credit Income Fund (the Fund) was organized as a Delaware statutory trust on May 13, 2021, and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, (the 1940 Act), as a non-diversified, closed-end management investment company that operates as an interval fund with a continuous offering of Fund shares. The investment objectives of the Fund is to generate high current income from investments in municipal securities exempt from federal income tax and capital preservation. Additional return via capital appreciation is a secondary investment objective of the Fund. The Fund commenced operations on February 2, 2022.
| 2. | SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Fund in preparation of its financial statements. These policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. 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.
Segment Reporting - An operating segment is defined as a component of a public entity that engages in business activities from which it may recognize revenues and incur expenses, has operating results that are regularly reviewed by the public entitys chief operating decision maker (CODM) to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance, and has discrete financial information available. The CODM is comprised of the portfolio manager and Treasurer of the Fund. The Fund operates as a single operating segment. The Funds income, expenses, assets, changes in net assets resulting from operations and performance are regularly monitored and assessed as a whole by the CODM responsible for oversight functions of the Fund, using the information presented in the financial statements and financial highlights.
Security Valuation - Pursuant to the valuation procedures approved by the Funds Board of Trustees (the Board) pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act, the Fund relies on certain security pricing services to provide the current market value of securities. Securities listed on an exchange are valued at the last reported sale price at the close of the regular trading session of the primary exchange on the business day the value is being determined, or in the case of securities listed on NASDAQ at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price. In the absence of a sale such securities shall be valued at the mean between the current bid and ask prices on the day of valuation. Debt securities not traded on an exchange may be valued at prices supplied by a pricing agent(s) based on broker or dealer supplied valuations or matrix pricing, a method of valuing securities by reference to the value of other securities with similar characteristics, such as rating, interest rate and maturity. The independent pricing service does not distinguish between smaller-sized bond positions known as odd lots and larger institutional-sized bond positions known as round lots. The Fund may fair value a particular bond if the adviser does not believe that the round lot value provided by the independent pricing service reflects fair value of the Funds holding. Short-term debt obligations having 60 days or less remaining until maturity, at time of purchase, may be valued at amortized cost.
When the Fund uses fair valuation to determine the value of a portfolio security or other asset for purposes of calculating its net asset value (NAV), such investments will not be priced on the basis of quotes from the primary market in which they are traded, but rather may be priced by the valuation designee pursuant to Rule 2a-5. Fair valuation may require subjective determinations about the value of a security. Although the Funds policy is intended to result in a calculation of the Funds NAV that fairly reflects security values as of the time of pricing, the Fund cannot ensure that fair values determined by the Board or persons acting at its direction will accurately reflect the price that the Fund could obtain for a security if it were to dispose of that security as of the time of pricing (for instance, in a forced or distressed sale). The prices used by the Fund may differ from the value that would be realized if the securities were sold.
There is no single standard for determining fair value of a security. Rather, the valuation designees fair value calculations will involve significant professional judgment in the application of both observable and unobservable attributes, and as a result, the fair value determined for a security may differ from its actual realizable value or future fair value. As part of its due diligence,
18
| Lind Capital Partners Municipal Credit Income Fund |
| NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) |
| January 31, 2026 |
the Valuation Designee will attempt to obtain current information on an ongoing basis from market sources or issuers to value all fair valued securities.
The Fund utilizes various methods to measure the fair value of its investments on a recurring basis. GAAP establishes a hierarchy that prioritizes inputs to valuation methods. The three levels of input are:
Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities that the Fund has the ability to access.
Level 2 - Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These inputs may include quoted prices for the identical instrument on an inactive market, prices for similar instruments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, yield curves, default rates and similar data.
Level 3 - Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, to the extent relevant observable inputs are not available, representing the Funds own assumptions about the assumptions a market participant would use in valuing the asset or liability, and would be based on the best information available.
The availability of observable inputs can vary from security to security and is affected by a wide variety of factors, including, for example, the type of security, whether the security is new and not yet established in the marketplace, the liquidity of markets, and other characteristics particular to the security. To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in Level 3.
The inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement falls in its entirety, is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. The following tables summarize the inputs used as of January 31, 2026 for the Funds assets measured at fair value:
| Assets* | Level I | Level 2 | Level 3 | Total | ||||||||||||
| Municipal Bonds | $ | - | $ | 64,433,583 | $ | - | $ | 64,433,583 | ||||||||
| Short-Term Investments | 1,274,724 | - | - | 1,274,724 | ||||||||||||

| * | Refer to the Schedule of Investments for state classifications. |
The Fund did not hold any Level 3 securities.
Security Transactions and Investment Income - Investment security transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Cost is determined and gains and losses are based upon the specific identification method for both financial statement and federal income tax purposes. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date and interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Purchase discounts and premiums on securities are accreted and amortized over the life of the respective securities using the effective interest method or where applicable, the first call date of the security.
Federal Income Taxes - The Fund intends to continue to comply with the requirements of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and will distribute all of its taxable income, if any, to shareholders. Accordingly, no provision for Federal income taxes is required in the financial statements.
The Fund recognizes the tax benefits of uncertain tax positions only when the position is more likely than not to be sustained assuming examination by tax authorities. Management has analyzed the Funds tax positions and has concluded that no liability for unrecognized tax benefits should be recorded related to uncertain tax positions taken on returns filed for the open tax year ended January 31, 2023, to January 31, 2025, or expected to be taken in the Funds January 31, 2026, year-end tax returns. The Fund recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the Statement of Operations. During the year, the Fund did not incur any interest or penalties.

| NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) |
| January 31, 2026 |
Distributions to Shareholders - Distributions from investment income are declared and recorded on a daily basis and paid monthly. Distributions from net realized capital gains, if any, are declared and paid annually and are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The character of income and gains to be distributed is determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These book/tax differences are considered either temporary (e.g., deferred losses) or permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are permanent in nature, such amounts are reclassified within the composition of net assets based on their federal tax-basis treatment; temporary differences do not require reclassification. All or a portion of a distribution may consist of return of capital, shareholders should not assume that the source of a distribution is net income.
Indemnification - The Fund indemnifies its officers and the Board for certain liabilities that may arise from the performance of their duties to the Fund. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnities. The Funds maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss due to these warranties and indemnities to be remote.
| 3. | PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT RISKS |
Credit Risk - the risk that the Fund could lose money if the issuer, guarantor, or insurers of a fixed-income security, or the counterparty to a derivative considered primarily speculative regarding the issuers continuing ability to make principal and interest payments and may be more volatile than higher-rated securities of similar maturity. Changes in the actual or perceived creditworthiness of an issuer, or a downgrade or default affecting any of the Funds securities could affect the Funds performance. Generally, the longer the maturity and the lower the credit quality of a security, the more sensitive it is to credit risk.
Municipal Bond Risk - the risk that a Fund may be affected significantly by the economic, regulatory, or political developments affecting the ability of obligors of Municipal Bonds to pay interest or repay principal. The values of Municipal Bonds held by the Fund may be adversely affected by local political and economic conditions and developments. The Fund may make significant investments in a particular segment of the municipal bond market or in the debt of issuers located in the same state or territory. Adverse conditions in such industry or location could have a correspondingly adverse effect on the financial condition of issuers. These conditions may cause the value of the Funds shares to fluctuate more than the values of shares of funds that invest in a greater variety of investments. The amount of public information available about municipal bonds is generally less than for certain corporate equities or bonds, meaning that the investment performance of the Fund may be more dependent on the analytical abilities of the Funds Adviser than funds that invest in stock or other corporate investments.
Interest Rate Risk - the risk that fixed-income securities will decline in value because of an increase in interest rates. The values of debt instruments, including Municipal Bonds, usually rise and fall in response to changes in interest rates. Declining interest rates generally increase the value of existing debt instruments, and rising interest rates generally decrease the value of existing debt instruments. Securities with floating interest rates generally are less sensitive to interest rate changes but may decline in value if their interest rates do not rise as much, or as quickly, as interest rates in general. Conversely, floating rate instruments will not generally increase in value if interest rates decline. Changes in interest rates will also affect the amount of interest income the fund earns on its floating rate investments.
High Yield Risk - Lower-quality bonds, known as high yield or junk bonds, present greater risk than bonds of higher quality, including an increased risk of default. Such bonds are considered predominantly speculative and may be questionable as to principal and interest payments. An economic downturn or period of rising interest rates could adversely affect the market for these bonds and reduce the Funds ability to sell its bonds. The lack of a liquid market for these bonds could decrease the Funds share price. Unrated municipal bonds determined by the Funds Adviser to be of comparable quality to rated municipal bonds which the Fund may purchase may pay a higher interest rate than such rated municipal bonds and be subject to a greater risk of illiquidity or price changes. Less public information is typically available about unrated municipal bonds or issuers than rated bonds or issuers.
Liquidity Risk - the risk that a particular investment may be difficult to purchase or sell and that the Fund may be unable to sell illiquid investments at an advantageous time or price or achieve its desired level of exposure to a certain sector. Liquidity risk
20
| Lind Capital Partners Municipal Credit Income Fund |
| NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) |
| January 31, 2026 |
may result from the lack of an active market, reduced number and capacity of traditional market participants to make a market in fixed income securities. Inventories of municipal bonds held by brokers and dealers have decreased in recent years, lessening their ability to make a market in these securities. This reduction in market making capacity has the potential to decrease the Funds ability to buy or sell bonds, and increase bond price volatility and trading costs, particularly during periods of economic or market stress. In addition, recent federal banking regulations may cause certain dealers to reduce their inventories of municipal bonds, which may further decrease the Funds ability to buy or sell bonds. As a result, the Fund may be forced to accept a lower price to sell a security, to sell other securities to raise cash, or to give up an investment opportunity, any of which could have a negative effect on performance. If the Fund needed to sell large blocks of bonds to raise cash (such as to meet heavy shareholder redemptions), those sales could further reduce the bonds prices and hurt performance. The Fund may invest in securities which are, or which become, illiquid. Illiquid securities may trade at a discount from comparable, more liquid investments, and may be subject to wide fluctuations in market value. Also, the Fund may not be able to dispose readily of illiquid securities when that would be beneficial at a favorable time or price or at prices approximating those at which the Fund currently values them. Further, the lack of an established secondary market for illiquid securities may make it more difficult to value such securities, which may negatively affect the price the Fund would receive upon disposition of such securities.
| 4. | INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT AND TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES |
Advisory Fees - Lind Capital Partners, LLC serves as the Funds investment adviser (the Adviser). Pursuant to an investment advisory agreement with the Fund, the Adviser, under the oversight of the Board, directs the daily operations of the Fund and supervises the performance of administrative and professional services provided by others. As compensation for these services and the related expenses borne by the Adviser, the Fund has agreed to pay the Adviser as compensation under the Investment Management Agreement (the Management Fee). The management fee is calculated and payable monthly in arrears at the annual rate of 1.00% of the Funds average daily net assets.
The Adviser and the Fund have entered into an expense limitation and reimbursement agreement (the Expense Limitation Agreement) under which the Adviser has agreed contractually to waive its fees and to pay or absorb the ordinary operating expenses of the Fund (excluding brokerage costs, taxes, interest, borrowing costs such as interest and dividend expenses on securities sold short, acquired fund fees and expenses, other expenditures which are capitalized in accordance with GAAP, extraordinary expenses such as litigation and merger or reorganization costs, and other expenses not incurred in the ordinary course of such Funds business), to the extent that they exceed 1.25% per annum of the Funds average daily net assets of the Fund (the Expense Limitation). In consideration of the Advisers agreement to limit the Funds expenses, the Fund has agreed to repay the Adviser in the amount of any fees waived and Fund expenses paid or absorbed, subject to the limitations that: (1) the reimbursement for fees and expenses will be made only if payable not more than 36 months from when they were incurred; and (2) the reimbursement may not be made if it would cause the expense limitation (at the time of waiver/reimbursement or recapture) to be exceeded. The expense limitation will be in effect through May 31, 2027. During the year ended January 31, 2026, the Adviser waived its fees and reimbursed other expenses in the amount of $274,462. As of January 31, 2026 the cumulative expenses subject to recapture amounted to $876,119, of which $274,462 expires January 31, 2029, $299,594 expires January 31, 2028, and $302,063 expires January 31, 2027.

For the year ended January 31, 2026, cost of purchases and proceeds from sales of portfolio securities for in-kind transactions, amounted to $18,917,443 and $0 respectively.
| 6. | AGGREGATE UNREALIZED APPRECIATION AND DEPRECIATION - TAX BASIS |

| 8. | NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS |
The Fund adopted the FASB Accounting Standards Update 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740) Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (ASU 2023-09), which establishes new income tax disclosure requirements and modifies or eliminates certain existing disclosure provisions. The amendments in this ASU are intended to address investor requests for more transparency about income tax information and to improve the effectiveness of income tax disclosures. The Funds adoption of ASU 2023-09 did not have a material impact on the Funds financial statements.
| 9. | CONTROL OWNERSHIP |
The beneficial ownership, either directly or indirectly, of more than 25% of the voting securities of the Fund creates presumption of the control of the Fund, under Section 2(a)(9) of the 1940 Act. As of January 31, 2026, National Financial Services, LLC held 60.50% of the voting securities of the Fund. The Fund has no knowledge as to whether all or any portion of the shares owned by National Financial Services, LLC are also beneficially owned by National Financial Services, LLC.
| 10. | REPURCHASE OFFERS |
The Fund is an interval fund and, in order to provide liquidity to shareholders, it intends to conduct quarterly repurchase offers of the outstanding shares at NAV, subject to approval of the Board. In each quarter, such repurchase offers will be at least 5% of its outstanding shares at NAV, pursuant to Rule 23c-3 under the 1940 Act. The Fund currently expects to conduct quarterly repurchase offers for 5% of its outstanding shares under ordinary circumstances. If shareholders tender for repurchase more than 5% of the outstanding shares (the Repurchase Offer Amount), the Fund may, but is not required to, repurchase an additional amount of shares not to exceed 2% of the outstanding shares on the repurchase request deadline. If the Fund determines not to repurchase more than the Repurchase Offer Amount, or if shareholders tender shares in an amount exceeding the Repurchase Offer Amount plus 2% of the outstanding shares on the repurchase request deadline, the Fund will repurchase shares pro rata based upon the number of shares tendered by each shareholder. Repurchase offers and the need to fund repurchase obligations may affect the Funds ability to be fully invested or force the Fund to maintain a higher percentage of its assets in liquid investments, which may harm the Funds investment performance. Moreover, diminution in the size of the Fund through repurchases may result in untimely sales of portfolio securities (with associated imputed transaction costs, which may be significant), and may limit the ability of the Fund to participate in new investment opportunities or to achieve its investment objectives. The Fund may accumulate cash by holding back (i.e., not reinvesting) payments received in connection with the Funds investments.
During the year ended January 31, 2026, the Fund completed four quarterly repurchase offers. In those offers, the Fund offered to repurchase up to 5% of the number of its outstanding shares as of the repurchase pricing dates. The results of those repurchase offers were as follows:

Item 12. Disclosure of Proxy Voting Policies and Procedures for Closed-End Management Investment Companies.
The Board has adopted Proxy Voting Policies and Procedures (Policies) on behalf of the Fund, which delegate the responsibility for voting proxies to the Adviser, subject to the Boards continuing oversight. The Policies require that the Adviser elect to vote or not to vote proxies received in a manner consistent with the best interests of the Fund and shareholders. The Policies also require the Adviser to present to the Board, at least annually, the Advisers Proxy Policies and a record of each proxy voted or not voted by the Adviser on behalf of the Fund, including a report on the resolution of all proxies identified by the Adviser involving a conflict of interest.
Where a proxy proposal raises a material conflict between the interests of the Adviser, any affiliated person(s) of the Adviser, the Distributor or any affiliated person of the Distributor, or any affiliated person of the Fund and the Funds or its shareholders interests, the Adviser will resolve the conflict by voting in accordance with the policy guidelines or at the Funds directive using the recommendation of an independent third party. If the third partys recommendations are not received in a timely fashion, the Adviser will abstain from voting.
Although it is uncommon given the fixed income nature of our investment strategy, Lind has the authority to vote proxies for the Fund. Proxies for high yield municipal bonds, often occur in restructures and workouts, if any. We vote the proxies in a way that we believe is consistent with our fiduciary duty to the Fund and that will cause the Funds securities to increase the most or decline the least in value. Lind does not have, per se, proxy vote guidelines as proxies for municipal securities are often unique and are not standardized. Consideration is provided to both long and short-term implications of the proposal to be voted upon when considering the vote that is in the best interest of the Fund.
Procedure
Lind goal is to act in the best interest of the Fund and its shareholders. Given the nature of the Funds investments, Lind does not have a formal proxy vote guideline or policy and procedure. We generally vote with management on standard matters (i.e., officers or directors, auditor, etc.). We separately evaluate other matters on a case-by-case basis. Lind Capital Partners will comply with the Funds policies and procedures related to the Funds Form N-PX filing requirements and maintains all records related to proxy ballots, including:
a. Date received.
b. Reconciliation to number of bonds in the Fund
c. Date voted and how we voted (typically, on line)
d. Records are maintained consistent with our general books and records: For 5 years from the end of the fiscal year the record was created.
Form N-PX: On an annual basis, following the end of the 12-month period ending June 30, the Adviser will furnish to the administrator of its Fund clients a full record detailing how the Firm voted all proxies for the prior 12-month period.
Item 13. Portfolio Managers of Closed-End Management Investment Companies.
J. Robert Lind is a founding member of the Adviser and the portfolio manager primarily responsible for managing the Funds assets. Mr. Lind has over 40 years of experience in the municipal bond market. Mr. Lind has an B.A. in History from Kenyon College and a MBA in Finance and Accounting from the University of Chicago.
