WHEREAS, the Wells Fargo Parties are substantial holders of auction rate preferred shares issued by the Funds, each a closed-end investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, for which PIMCO serves as investment manager (“ARPS”);

WHEREAS, the Wells Fargo Parties have engaged in discussions with the Fund Parties regarding a proposal that each Fund conduct an issuer tender offer for its ARPS (the “Discussions”), and in that connection entered into a letter agreement dated June 15, 2017, and extended January 4, 2018, regarding confidentiality obligations with respect to the discussions (the “Confidentiality Letter Agreement”).

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises and covenants contained in this Agreement, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:

1.        Tender Offers. With respect to each Fund, subject to satisfaction of Section 2 below, the Fund Parties (each Fund with respect to itself only) agree to conduct a tender offer by each Fund for 100% of its issued and outstanding ARPS at a price equal to 85% of the $25,000 face value (i.e., a tender offer of $21,250 per ARPS share), scheduled to expire as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange on September 11, 2018 (such date, as it may be extended in accordance with the terms of the Tender Offers, the “Expiration Date”), subject only to substantially the same conditions as are set forth in Appendix A hereto (each, a “Tender Offer” and, collectively, the “Tender Offers”), which conditions do not include any minimum level of participation in the Tender Offer by ARPS holders of the Fund. Subject to Section 2(a) and (c) of this Agreement, each Fund (with respect to itself only) hereby agrees that if, as of the Expiration Date of its Tender Offer, all of such conditions are satisfied, it shall accept for payment all ARPS properly tendered pursuant to its Tender Offer.

2.        Agreements and Obligations of the Wells Fargo Parties and the Fund Parties.

  (a)    The Wells Fargo Parties hereby agree and undertake that, with respect to each Fund, they (and/or their affiliates) shall engage in good faith negotiations with the Fund to purchase privately placed preferred securities (the “New Preferred Shares”) to be issued by the

Fund with such terms and conditions as are acceptable to the Fund Parties and the Wells Fargo Parties (and/or their affiliates) with an aggregate liquidation preference at least equal to the aggregate liquidation preference of the Fund’s ARPS accepted for purchase in the Fund’s Tender Offer, with such purchase to be completed on or before the date of completion of the Fund’s Tender Offer, it being understood that the Fund’s successful issuance of New Preferred Shares in accordance with the purchase agreement and the Funds’ Bylaws shall be a condition to the completion of the Fund’s Tender Offer (the “New Preferred Share Condition”); provided, however, that the Fund may waive such condition in its sole discretion.

  (b)    The Wells Fargo Parties hereby agree and undertake that, with respect to each Fund, if a Tender Offer is conducted by the Fund, the Wells Fargo Parties shall tender one-hundred percent (100%) of their holdings in ARPS of the Fund, such that the Wells Fargo Parties would have no holdings in the Fund’s ARPS following completion of the Fund’s Tender Offer.

  (c)    The Fund Parties hereby agree and undertake that, solely with respect to PNF and PYN, respectively, if such Fund’s ARPS with an aggregate liquidation preference of at least $9 million are not tendered and accepted for purchase by the Fund in accordance with this Agreement, the Fund will waive the New Preferred Share Condition with respect to such Fund’s Tender Offer and the Wells Fargo Parties (and/or their affiliates) will be under no obligation to purchase any New Preferred Shares from such Fund.

3.        Release of Any Claims; Covenants Not to Sue.

  (a)    Subject to and upon completion of the Tender Offers, each of the Wells Fargo Parties, on behalf of itself, its heirs, beneficiaries, administrators, personal representatives, successors, assigns, parents, subsidiaries, shareholders, affiliates, and predecessors, as applicable, in exchange for the agreements and other consideration in this Agreement, (i) does hereby compromise, settle, and absolutely, unconditionally, and fully release and forever discharge each of the Fund Parties and their current and former respective successors, subsidiaries, affiliates, employees, officers, directors, trustees, managers, investors and shareholders, and each of their respective attorneys, administrators, personal representatives, insurers and assigns (together, the “Released Fund Parties”) of and from any and all claims, demands, debts, liens, obligations, fees and expenses, harm, injuries, liabilities, cause or causes of action, whether known or unknown, claimed or alleged, asserted or unasserted, either at law or in equity, whether statutory, in contract or in tort, of any kind or character which it has, or owns, or may now or in the future have or own for any claims arising out of or relating in any way to the Discussions, the Tender Offer or the Wells Fargo Parties’ acquisition of, transactions in, ownership of or holdings in the Funds’ ARPS and (ii) acknowledges and agrees that it will not now or in the future bring any claim, action, lawsuit, arbitration proceeding or other form of action against any of the Released Fund Parties, directly or indirectly, arising out of or in any way connected with any claim or potential claim released under this Agreement as referenced in sub-paragraph 3(a)(i) above, and that this Agreement is a bar to any such claim, action, lawsuit, proceeding or other form of action.

  (b)    Subject to and upon completion of the Tender Offers, each of the Fund Parties, on behalf of itself, its heirs, beneficiaries, administrators, personal representatives, successors, assigns, parents, subsidiaries, shareholders, affiliates, and predecessors, as applicable, in exchange for the agreements and other consideration in this Agreement, (i) does hereby

compromise, settle, and absolutely, unconditionally, and fully release and forever discharge each of the Wells Fargo Parties and their current and former respective successors, subsidiaries, affiliates, employees, officers, directors, trustees, managers, investors and shareholders, and each of their respective attorneys, administrators, personal representatives, insurers and assigns (together, the “Released Wells Fargo Parties”) of and from any and all claims, demands, debts, liens, obligations, fees and expenses, harm, injuries, liabilities, cause or causes of action, whether known or unknown, claimed or alleged, asserted or unasserted, either at law or in equity, whether statutory, in contract or in tort, of any kind or character which it has, or owns, or may now or in the future have or own for any claims arising out of or relating in any way to the Discussions, the Tender Offers or the Wells Fargo Parties’ acquisition of, transactions in, ownership of or holdings in the Funds’ ARPS and (ii) acknowledges and agrees that it will not now or in the future bring any claim, action, lawsuit, arbitration proceeding or other form of action against any of the Released Wells Fargo Parties, directly or indirectly, arising out of or in any way connected with any claim or potential claim released under this Agreement as referenced in sub-paragraph 3(b)(i) above, and that this Agreement is a bar to any such claim, action, lawsuit, proceeding or other form of action.

  (c)    The Wells Fargo Parties and the Fund Parties acknowledge and agree that the releases and covenants provided in this Section 3 are in no way an admission or acknowledgment of any liabilities, claims or causes of action that one party may have against the other.

  (d)    The provisions of Section 3(a) and Section 3(b) shall not be deemed to preclude any claim by any party hereto alleging a breach of the terms of this Agreement.

4.        Injunctive Relief. Each party acknowledges that a breach of its obligations under this Agreement may result in irreparable harm to the other party for which monetary damages may not be sufficient. Each party hereto agrees that, in the event of a breach or threatened breach by the other party of its obligations under this Agreement, the non-breaching party shall be entitled, in addition to its other rights and remedies hereunder or at law, to seek injunctive or other equitable relief, and such further relief as may be proper from a court of competent jurisdiction, including specific performance of the obligations set forth in Section 2 of this Agreement.

5.        Confidentiality. The Wells Fargo Parties and the Fund Parties hereby agree to and do hereby extend the term of the Confidentiality Letter Agreement and their respective obligations thereunder in accordance with Section 6 hereof; provided that the Fund Parties may disclose the subject matter of the Tender Offers to third parties, including to other holders of the Funds’

ARPS and to service providers and agents who may be engaged to assist in conducting the Tender Offers, before the Tender Offers are publicly announced. For the avoidance of doubt, the Wells Fargo Parties acknowledge that each Fund will be required to file a copy of this Agreement with its Form TO filings in connection with its Tender Offer.

6.        Term. This Agreement shall terminate on the earlier of (i) the close of the New York Stock Exchange on the business day next following the Expiration Date, if the Funds have not accepted validly tendered ARPS for purchase pursuant to the Tender Offers by such time and (ii) the date of completion of the Tender Offers, In the case of termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 6(i), all provisions of this Agreement shall terminate and have no further force or effect upon such termination, except that the confidentiality obligations of the parties
