VOTE FOR THE KING STREET SUB-ADVISORY AGREEMENT
Your Fund’s experienced Board
unanimously recommends shareholders to vote “FOR” a better |
XAI Floating Rate & Alternative Income Trust (XFLT) (the “Fund”) is holding a Special Meeting of Shareholders on July 30, 2026, to approve a new investment sub-advisory agreement (the “King Street Sub-Advisory Agreement”) among the Fund, XA Investments LLC and Rockford Tower Asset Management, L.L.C. (the “King Street Sub-Adviser”), a wholly owned subsidiary of King Street Capital Management, L.P. (“King Street”). King Street’s collateralized loan obligations (CLOs) platform manages $12.3 billion in assets across 20 U.S. CLOs, nine European CLOs and one collateralized bond obligation.
If the proposal is approved, your Fund’s Board believes the King Street Sub-Adviser will be well positioned to improve the Fund’s performance, potentially increase your dividend and execute the Fund’s strategy more dynamically.
