PROXY STATEMENT

June 3, 2019

FOR THE JOINT ANNUAL MEETINGS OF SHAREHOLDERS

TO BE HELD ON JULY 11, 2019

INTRODUCTION

This Proxy Statement is furnished in connection with the solicitation by the Boards of Trustees (the “Board”) of the shareholders of AllianzGI Convertible & Income Fund (“NCV”), AllianzGI Convertible & Income Fund II (“NCZ”), AllianzGI Convertible & Income 2024 Target Term Fund (“CBH”), AllianzGI Diversified Income & Convertible Fund (“ACV”), AllianzGI Equity & Convertible Income Fund (“NIE”) and AllianzGI NFJ Dividend, Interest & Premium Strategy Fund (“NFJ”) (each a “Fund” and, collectively, the “Funds”) of proxies to be voted at the joint Annual Meetings of Shareholders of the Funds and any adjournment(s) or postponement(s) thereof. The term “Meeting” is used throughout this joint Proxy Statement to refer to each of the joint Annual Meetings of Shareholders of NCV, NCZ and ACV, the Annual Meeting of Shareholders of NIE and the joint Annual Meetings of Shareholders of NFJ and CBH, as dictated by the context. Each Meeting will be held at the offices of Allianz Global Investors U.S. LLC (“AllianzGI U.S.” or the “Manager”), at 1633 Broadway, between West 50th and West 51st Streets, 42nd Floor, New York, New York 10019, on Thursday, July 11, 2019, with the Meeting to be held at 10:00 A.M., Eastern Time, for NCV, NCZ and ACV, at 11:00 A.M., Eastern Time,

1

for NIE, and at 1:30 P.M., Eastern Time, for NFJ and CBH. The Notice of joint Annual Meetings of Shareholders (the “Notice”), this Proxy Statement and the enclosed proxy cards are first being sent to Shareholders on or about June 3, 2019.

Each Meeting is scheduled as a joint meeting of the holders of all shares of the applicable Fund(s), which consist of holders of common shares of each Fund (the “Common Shareholders”) and holders of preferred shares of NCV, NCZ and ACV (the “Preferred Shareholders” and, together with the Common Shareholders, the “Shareholders”). The Shareholders of each Fund are expected to consider and vote on similar matters. The Shareholders of each Fund will vote on the applicable proposal set forth herein (the “Proposal”) and on any other matters that may properly be presented for vote by the Shareholders of that Fund. The outcome of voting by the Shareholders of one Fund does not affect the outcome for any other Fund.

The Board of each Fund has fixed the close of business on May 16, 2019 as the record date (the “Record Date”) for the determination of Shareholders of each Fund entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the applicable Meeting. The Shareholders of each Fund on the Record Date will be entitled to one vote per share on each matter to which they are entitled to vote and that is to be voted on by Shareholders of the Fund, and a fractional vote with respect to fractional shares, with no cumulative voting rights in the election of Trustees, except as otherwise described in the following paragraph.

At the Meeting, the election of certain Trustees (the “Preferred Shares Trustees”) of NCV, NCZ and ACV will be voted on exclusively by the applicable Fund’s Preferred Shareholders. For NCV and NCZ, with regard to any matter where holders of shares of preferred stock (the “Preferred Shares”) are entitled to vote as a class separate from holders of shares of common stock (the “Common Shares” and, together with the Preferred Shares, the “Shares”), including the election of Preferred Shares Trustees, each Preferred Share will entitle its holder to one vote for every $25.00 in liquidation preference represented by such Preferred Share (and any fraction of $25.00 shall be entitled to a proportionate fractional vote). For ACV, Preferred Shares will entitle their holders to one vote per share in the election of the Preferred Shares Trustees. On each other proposal to be brought before the Meeting (including the election of the nominees other than the Preferred Shares Trustees by all Shareholders), the Preferred Shareholders of each of NCV, NCZ and ACV will have equal voting rights (i.e., one vote per Share) with the applicable Fund’s Common Shareholders and will vote together with Common Shareholders as a single class. As of the Record Date, NCV and NCZ each had outstanding series of auction rate preferred shares (“Auction Rate Preferred Shares”) with liquidation preference of $25,000 per share and cumulative preferred shares (“Cumulative Preferred Shares”) with liquidation preference of $25.00 per share.

⁽¹⁾  A Trustee of a Fund elected at an annual meeting shall hold office until the annual meeting for the year in which his or her term expires and until his or her successor shall be elected and shall qualify, subject, however, to prior death, resignation, retirement, disqualification or removal from office.

⁽²⁾  Each of Messrs. Fuccillo and Holt is an “interested nominee,” as defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act, due to his affiliation with the Manager and its affiliates.

12

Under this classified Board structure, generally only those Trustees in a single Class may be replaced in any one year, and it would require a minimum of two years to change a majority of the Board under normal circumstances. This structure, which may be regarded as an “anti-takeover” provision, may make it more difficult for a Fund’s Shareholders to change the majority of Trustees of the Fund, and thus promotes the continuity of management.

Unless authority is withheld, it is the intention of the persons named in the enclosed proxy for a Fund to vote each proxy for the persons listed above for that Fund. Each of the nominees has indicated he or she will serve if elected, but if he or she should be unable to serve for a Fund, the proxy holders may vote in favor of such substitute nominee as the Board may designate (or, alternatively, the Board may determine to leave a vacancy).

Trustees and Officers

The business of each Fund is managed under the direction of the Fund’s Board of Trustees. Subject to the provisions of each Fund’s Declaration, its Bylaws and applicable state law, the Trustees have all powers necessary and convenient to carry out this responsibility, including the election and removal of the Fund’s officers.

Board Leadership Structure — Assuming the nominees are elected as proposed, the Board of Trustees will consist of twelve Trustees, ten of whom are not “interested persons” (within the meaning of Section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act) of the Fund or of the Manager (the “Independent Trustees”), which would mean more than 83% of Board members are Independent Trustees. An Independent Trustee serves as Chair of the Board and is selected by a vote of the majority of the Independent Trustees. The Chair of the Board presides at meetings of the Board and acts as a liaison with service providers, officers, attorneys and other Trustees generally between meetings, and performs such other functions as may be requested by the Board from time to time. Mr. Rappaport has been selected by the Independent Trustees to serve as Chair of the Board of each Fund. If re-elected by Shareholders of NCV, NCZ and ACV at the Meeting, Mr. Rappaport will continue to serve as the Chair of the Board of each Fund. Messrs. Kertess and Scoon have been selected by the Independent Trustees to serve as Vice Chair of the Board of each Fund. If re-elected by Shareholders of NCV and ACV, Mr. Kertess will continue to serve as Vice Chair of the Board of each Fund. If re-elected by Shareholders of ACV, Mr. Scoon will continue to serve as the Vice Chair of the Board of each Fund.

The Board of Trustees of each Fund meets regularly four times each year to discuss and consider matters concerning the Funds, and also holds special meetings to address matters arising between regular meetings. The Independent Trustees regularly meet outside the presence of management and are advised by independent legal counsel. Regular meetings generally take place in-person; other meetings may take place in-person or by telephone.

13

The Board of Trustees has established six standing Committees to facilitate the Trustees’ oversight of the management of each Fund: the Audit Oversight Committee, the Compliance Committee, the Contracts Committee, the Governance and Nominating Committee, the Performance Committee and the Valuation Committee. The functions and role of each Committee are described below under “— Board Committees and Meetings.” The membership of each Committee includes, at a minimum, all of the current Independent Trustees, which the Board believes allows them to participate in the full range of the Board’s oversight duties.

The Board reviews its leadership structure periodically and has determined that this leadership structure, including an Independent Chair, a supermajority of Independent Trustees and having Independent Trustees serve as Committee Chairs, is appropriate in light of the characteristics and circumstances of each Fund. In reaching this conclusion, the Board considered, among other things, the predominant role of the Manager in the day-to-day management of Fund affairs, the extent to which the work of the Board is conducted through the Committees, the number of portfolios that comprise the Fund Complex (as defined in the instructions to Schedule 14A), the variety of asset classes those portfolios include, the net assets of each Fund and the Fund Complex and the management and other service arrangements of each Fund and the Fund Complex. The Board also believes that its structure, including the presence of two Trustees who are executives with one or more Manager-affiliated entities (which would continue to be the case for all Funds, if Mr. Holt is re-elected to serve as Trustee of NCV, NCZ, NIE and NFJ, and if Mr. Fuccillo is elected to serve as Trustee of all Funds), facilitates an efficient flow of information concerning the management of each Fund to the Independent Trustees.

Risk Oversight — Each of the Funds has retained the Manager to provide investment advisory services, administrative services, and is responsible for the management of risks that may arise from Fund investments and operations. Some employees of the Manager and its affiliates serve as the Funds’ officers, including, but not limited to, the Funds’ principal executive officer and principal financial and accounting officer, chief compliance officer and chief legal officer. The Manager employs different processes, procedures and controls to identify and manage different types of risks that may affect the Funds. The Board oversees the performance of these functions by the Manager both directly and through the Committee structure it has established, including the Compliance Committee. The Board, either directly or through its Compliance Committee, receives from the Manager a wide range of reports and presentations, both on a regular and as-needed basis, relating to the Funds’ activities and to the actual and potential risks of the Funds. These include, among others, reports and presentations on investment risks, custody and valuation of Fund assets, compliance with applicable laws, the Funds’ financial accounting and reporting and the Board’s oversight of risk management functions. In addition, the Performance Committee of the Board meets periodically with the individual portfolio managers of the Funds or their delegates to receive reports regarding the portfolio management of the Funds and their performance, including their investment risks. In the course of

14

these meetings and discussions with the Manager, the Board has emphasized the importance of maintaining vigorous risk- management programs and procedures with respect to the Funds.

In addition, the Board has appointed a Chief Compliance Officer (“CCO”). The CCO oversees the development of compliance policies and procedures that are reasonably designed to minimize the risk of violations of the federal securities laws (“Compliance Policies”). The CCO reports directly to the Independent Trustees, interacts with individuals within the Manager’s organization, including its Head of Risk Management, and provides presentations to the Board at its quarterly meetings and an annual report on the application of the Compliance Policies. The Board periodically discusses relevant risks affecting the Funds with the CCO at these meetings. The Board has approved the Compliance Policies and reviews the CCO’s reports. Further, the Board annually reviews the sufficiency of the Compliance Policies, as well as the appointment and compensation of the CCO.

The Board recognizes that the reports it receives concerning risk management matters are, by their nature, typically summaries of the relevant information. Moreover, the Board recognizes that not all risks that may affect the Funds can be identified in advance; that it may not be practical or cost-effective to eliminate or mitigate certain risks; that it may be necessary to bear certain risks (such as investment-related risks) in seeking to achieve the Funds’ investment objectives; and that the processes, procedures and controls employed to address certain risks may be limited in their effectiveness. As a result of the foregoing and for other reasons, the Board’s risk management oversight is subject to substantial limitations.

The Trustees of the Funds, their years of birth, the position they hold with the Funds, their term of office and length of time served, a description of their principal occupations during the past five years, the number of portfolios in the Fund Complex that the Trustees oversee and other directorships held by the Trustees of the Trust are listed in the following tables. Except as shown, each Trustee’s principal occupation and business experience for the last five years have been with the employer(s) indicated, although in some cases the Trustee may have held different positions with such employer(s).

* Securities are valued as of the Record Date

To the knowledge of the Funds, as of the Record Date, Trustees and Nominees who are Independent Trustees or Independent Nominees and their immediate family members did not own securities of an investment adviser or principal underwriter of the Funds or a person (other than a registered investment company) directly or indirectly controlling, controlled by, or under common control with an investment adviser or principal underwriter of the Funds.

Trustees’ Compensation

Each of the Independent Trustees and Nominees also serve as a trustee of Allianz Funds, AllianzGI Institutional Multi-Series Trust (“IMST”), Premier Multi-Series VIT (“VIT”) and Allianz Funds Multi-Strategy Trust (“MST”) (each, an “Allianz-Sponsored Open-End Fund,” and collectively with the Funds, the “Allianz-Sponsored Funds”). In addition, each of Messrs. Gallagher, Jacobson, Kertess, Ogden and Rappaport and Mses. Cogan and DeCotis serves as a trustee or director of a number of closed-end and open-end funds for which Allianz Global Investors Fund Management LLC (“AGIFM”) previously served as investment manager and its affiliate, Pacific Investment Management Company LLC (“PIMCO”), served as sub-adviser (together, the “PIMCO- Sponsored Funds”). The PIMCO-Sponsored Funds were transitioned to the PIMCO Funds platform effective September 5, 2014, such that AGIFM no longer served as the investment manager to those funds. Since that time, the Independent Trustees have received separate compensation from the Allianz-Sponsored Funds in addition to amounts received for service on the Boards of the PIMCO-Sponsored Funds. Effective October 1, 2016, AGIFM merged into AllianzGI U.S., by means of a statutory merger (the “Reorganization”). At the time of the Reorganization, AllianzGI U.S. assumed the role of primary investment manager to the Funds.

Each of the Allianz-Sponsored Funds are expected to hold joint meetings of their Boards of Trustees whenever possible. Each Trustee, other than any Trustee who is a director, officer, partner or employee of the Manager or any entity controlling, controlled by or under common control with the Manager receives annual compensation of $235,000, payable quarterly. The Independent Chairman of the Boards receives an additional $75,000 per year, payable quarterly. The Audit Oversight Committee Chairman receives an additional $25,000 annually, payable quarterly. The Performance Committee Chair receives and additional $10,000 annually, payable quarterly. The Contracts Committee Chair receives an additional $10,000 annually, payable quarterly. The Valuation Committee Chair receives an additional $5,000

22

annually, payable quarterly. The Compliance Committee Chair receives an additional $5,000 annually, payable quarterly. Trustees are also reimbursed for meeting- related expenses.

Each Trustee’s compensation and other costs in connection with joint meetings are allocated among the Allianz-Sponsored Funds, as applicable, on the basis of fixed percentages as between each such group of funds. Trustee compensation and other costs are then further allocated pro rata among the individual Funds based on the complexity of issues relating to each such Fund and relative time spent by the Trustees in addressing them, and on each such Fund’s relative net assets.

The Trustees do not currently receive any pension or retirement benefits from the Funds or the Fund Complex. In calendar year 2018 and certain prior periods, the Trust maintained a deferred compensation plan pursuant to which each Independent Trustee had the opportunity to elect not to receive all or a portion of his or her fees from the Funds on a current basis, but instead to receive in a subsequent period chosen by the Trustee an amount equal to the value of such compensation if such compensation had been invested in one or more series of Allianz Funds or Allianz Funds Multi-Strategy Trust selected by the Trustees from and after the normal payment dates for such compensation. The deferred compensation program was closed to new deferrals effective January 1, 2019, and all Trustee fees earned with respect to service in calendar year 2019 and beyond have been or will be paid in cash, on a current basis, unless the Board of Trustees of the Allianz-Sponsored Funds reopens the program to new deferrals. The Funds still have obligations with respect to Trustee fees deferred in 2018 and in prior periods, and will continue to have such obligations until all deferred Trustee fees are paid out pursuant to the terms of the deferred compensation plan.

The following table provides information concerning the compensation paid to the Trustees/Nominees of the Funds who are not “interested persons” (as defined in the 1940 Act) for the fiscal years or periods, as applicable, ended January 31, 2019 for ACV, NIE and NFJ, and February 28, 2019 for NCV, NCZ and CBH. For the calendar year ended December 31, 2018, the Trustees received the compensation set forth in the table below for serving as Trustees of the Funds and other funds in the same Fund Complex as the Funds. Each officer and each Trustee who is a director, officer, partner, member or employee of the Manager, or of any entity controlling, controlled by or under common control with the Manager, including any Trustee who is an interested person, serves without any compensation from the Funds.

Trustee Qualifications — The Board has determined that each Trustee/Nominee should serve as such based on several factors (none of which alone is decisive). As mentioned above, each Independent Trustee/Nominee, with the exception of Ms. Cogan and Mr. Fuccillo, has served as a Trustee of each Fund for a number of years and/or has served as a Trustee of one or more investment companies affiliated with the Funds for a number of years. Each Trustee/Nominee is knowledgeable about the Funds’ business and service provider arrangements, which are for the most part common among the Funds, Allianz Funds, IMST, MST and VIT. Among the factors the Board considered when concluding that an individual should serve on the Board were the following: (i) the individual’s business and professional experience and accomplishments; (ii) the individual’s ability to work effectively with other members of the Board; (iii) the individual’s prior experience, if any, serving on the boards of public companies (including, where relevant, other investment companies) and other complex enterprises and organizations; and (iv) how the individual’s skills, experiences and attributes would contribute to an appropriate mix of relevant skills and experience on the Board.

In respect of each current Trustee, the individual’s substantial professional accomplishments and prior experience, including, in some cases, in fields related to the operations of the Funds, were a significant factor in the determination by the Board that the individual is qualified to serve as a Trustee of the Funds. The following is a summary of various qualifications, experiences and skills of each Trustee (in addition to business experience during the past five years set forth in the table above) that contributed to the Board’s conclusion that an individual is qualified to serve on the Board.

Board Committees and Meetings.

Audit Oversight Committee. The Board of each Fund has established an Audit Oversight Committee in accordance with Section 3(a)(58)(A) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).

Cogan and DeCotis, each of whom is an Independent Trustee. Mr. Jacobson is the current Chair of each Fund’s Audit Oversight Committee.

Each Fund’s Audit Oversight Committee provides oversight with respect to the internal and external accounting and auditing procedures of each Fund and, among

27

other things, determines the selection of the independent registered public accounting firm for the Funds and considers the scope of the audit, approves all audit and permitted non-audit services proposed to be performed by the independent registered public accounting firm on behalf of the Funds, and approves non-audit services to be performed by the independent registered public accounting firm for certain affiliates, including the Manager and entities in a control relationship with the Manager that provide services to the Funds where the engagement relates directly to the operations and financial reporting of the Funds. The Audit Oversight Committee considers the possible effect of those services on the independence of the Funds’ independent registered public accounting firm. Each member of each Fund’s Audit Oversight Committee is “independent,” as independence for audit committee members is defined in the currently applicable listing standards of the NYSE, on which the Common Shares of each Fund are listed.

The Board of each Fund has adopted a written Audit Oversight Committee charter for its Audit Oversight Committee. A copy of the written charter for each Fund, as amended to date, is attached to this Proxy Statement as Exhibit A. A report of the Audit Oversight Committee of ACV, NIE and NFJ, dated March 21, 2019, is attached to this Proxy Statement as Exhibit B-1.

The Governance and Nominating Committee was called the Nominating Committee prior to March 5, 2015.

Qualifications, Evaluation and Identification of Trustee Nominees. The Governance and Nominating Committee requires that Trustee candidates have a college degree or equivalent business experience, but has not otherwise established specific, minimum qualifications that must be met by an individual to be considered by the Governance and Nominating Committee for nomination as a Trustee. The Governance and Nominating Committee may take into account a wide variety of factors in considering Trustee candidates, including, but not limited to: (i) availability and commitment of a candidate to attend meetings and perform his or her responsibilities on the Board; (ii) relevant industry and related experience, (iii) educational background; (iv) ability, judgment and expertise; and (v) overall diversity of the Board’s composition. The Governance and Nominating Committee may consider candidates for Trustee recommended by the Funds’ current Trustees, the Funds’ officers, the Manager, shareholders of any Fund and any other source the Governance and Nominating Committee deems appropriate.

Shareholder Communications with the Board of Trustees. The Board of Trustees of each Fund has adopted procedures by which Shareholders may send communications to the Board. Shareholders may mail written communications to the Board to the attention of the Board of Trustees, [name of Fund], c/o Angela Borreggine, Chief Legal Officer (“CLO”), Allianz Global Investors U.S. LLC, 1633 Broadway, New York, New York 10019. Shareholder communications must (i) be in writing and be signed by the Shareholder and (ii) identify the class and number of Shares held by the Shareholder. The CLO of each Fund or her designee is responsible for reviewing properly submitted shareholder communications. The CLO shall either (i) provide a copy of each properly submitted shareholder communication to the Board at its next regularly scheduled Board meeting or (ii) if the CLO determines that the communication requires more immediate attention, forward the communication to the Trustees promptly after receipt. The CLO may, in good faith, determine that a shareholder communication should not be provided to the Board because it does not reasonably relate to a Fund or its operations, management, activities, policies, service providers, Board, officers, shareholders or other matters relating to an investment in the Fund or is otherwise routine or ministerial in nature. These procedures do not apply to (i) any communication from an officer or Trustee of a Fund, (ii) any communication from an employee or agent of a Fund, unless such communication is made solely in such employee’s or agent’s capacity as a shareholder, or (iii) any shareholder proposal submitted pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act or any communication made in connection with such a proposal. A Fund’s Trustees are not required to attend the Fund’s annual shareholder meetings or to otherwise make themselves available to shareholders for communications, other than by the aforementioned procedures.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance. Each Fund’s Trustees and certain officers, investment advisers, certain affiliated persons of the investment advisers and persons who beneficially own more than 10% of any class of outstanding securities of a Fund (i.e., a Fund’s Common Shares or Preferred Shares) are required to file forms reporting their affiliation with the Fund and reports of ownership and changes in ownership of the Fund’s securities with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and the NYSE. These persons and entities are required by SEC regulation to furnish the Fund with copies of all such forms they file. Based solely on a review of these forms furnished to each Fund, each Fund believes that each of the Trustees, relevant officers, investment advisers and relevant affiliated persons of the investment advisers and the persons who beneficially own more than 10% of any class of outstanding securities of a Fund has complied with all applicable filing requirements during each Fund’s respective fiscal year, except, due to administrative oversight, two amendments to Form 4 were filed on October 10, 2018 for Justin Kass (for CBH) to correct inadvertent errors in the number of shares of Common Stock previously reported as acquired in two separate transactions.

Each of the Funds’ executive officers is an “interested person” of each Fund (as defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act) as a result of his or her position(s) set forth in the table above.

Investment Manager. The Manager, located at 1633 Broadway, New York, New York 10019, serves as the investment manager of the Funds and is responsible for managing the Funds’ business affairs and administrative matters. AllianzGI U.S. is an investment adviser based in New York, New York, Dallas, Texas and San Diego, California. The Manager is a majority-owned indirect subsidiary of Allianz SE, a publicly traded European-based multinational insurance and financial services holding company.

Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm. The Audit Oversight Committee of each Fund’s Board and the full Board of each Fund unanimously selected PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (“PwC”) as the independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal years ending January 31, 2019 for ACV, NIE and NFJ, and February 28, 2019 for NCV, NCZ and CBH. PwC served as the independent registered public accounting firm of each Fund for the last fiscal year, and also serves as the independent registered public accounting firm of various other investment companies for which the Manager serves as investment adviser. PwC is located at 300 Madison Avenue, New York, New York 10017. None of the Funds knows of any direct financial or material indirect financial interest of PwC in the Funds.

A representative of PwC, if requested by any Shareholder, will be present at the Meeting via telephone to respond to appropriate questions from Shareholders and will have an opportunity to make a statement if he or she chooses to do so.

Pre-approval Policies and Procedures. Each Fund’s Audit Oversight Committee has adopted written policies relating to the pre-approval of audit and permitted non- audit services to be performed by the Fund’s independent registered public accounting firm. Under the policies, on an annual basis, a Fund’s Audit Oversight Committee reviews and pre-approves proposed audit and permitted non-audit services to be performed by the independent registered public accounting firm on behalf of the Fund. The President of each Fund also pre-approves any permitted non-audit services to be provided to the Fund.

In addition, each Fund’s Audit Oversight Committee pre-approves annually any permitted non-audit services (including audit-related services) to be provided by the independent registered public accounting firm to the Manager and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the Manager that provides ongoing services to the Fund (together, the “Accounting Affiliates”), provided, in each case, that the engagement relates directly to the operations and financial reporting of the Fund. Although the Audit Oversight Committee does not pre-approve all services provided by the independent registered public accounting firm to Accounting Affiliates (for instance, if the engagement does not relate directly to the operations and financial

37

reporting of the Fund), the Committee receives an annual report from the independent registered public accounting firm showing the aggregate fees paid by Accounting Affiliates for such services.

Each Fund’s Audit Oversight Committee may also from time to time pre-approve individual non-audit services to be provided to the Fund or an Accounting Affiliate that were not pre-approved as part of the annual process described above. The Chairman of each Fund’s Audit Oversight Committee (or any other member of the Committee to whom this responsibility has been delegated) may also pre-approve these individual non-audit services, provided that the fee for such services does not exceed certain pre- determined dollar thresholds. Any such pre-approval by the Chairman (or by a delegate) is reported to the full Audit Oversight Committee at its next regularly scheduled meeting.

The pre-approval policies provide for waivers of the requirement that the Audit Oversight Committee pre-approve permitted non-audit services provided to the Funds or their Accounting Affiliates pursuant to de minimis exceptions described in Section 10A of the Exchange Act and applicable regulations (referred to herein as the “de minimis exception”).

Audit Fees. Audit Fees are fees related to the audit and review of the financial statements included in annual reports and registration statements, and other services that are normally provided in connection with statutory and regulatory filings or engagements.

Each Fund’s Audit Oversight Committee has determined that the provision by PwC of non-audit services to the Fund’s Accounting Affiliates that were not pre- approved by the Committee was compatible with maintaining the independence of PwC as the Fund’s principal auditors.

Other Business. As of the date of this Proxy Statement, each Fund’s officers and the Manager know of no business to come before the Meeting other than as set forth in the Notice. If any other business is properly brought before the Meeting, the persons named as proxies will vote in their sole discretion.

Quorum, Adjournments and Methods of Tabulation. A quorum for each of NIE and NFJ at the applicable Meeting will consist of the presence in person or by proxy of thirty percent (30%) of the total Shares of the Fund entitled to vote at such Meeting, except that, where the Preferred Shares or Common Shares will vote as separate classes, then 30% of the shares of each class entitled to vote will be necessary to constitute a quorum for the transaction of business by that class. A quorum for each of NCV and NCZ at the applicable Meeting will consist of the presence in person or by proxy of thirty percent (30%) of the total Shares of the Fund entitled to vote at Meeting, except that, (i) where the Common Shares will vote as a separate class, then 30% of such Common Shares entitled to vote will be necessary to constitute a quorum for the transaction of business by such Common Shares and (ii) where the Preferred Shares will vote as a separate class, 30% of the votes represented by such Preferred

40

Shares entitled to vote will be necessary to constitute a quorum for the transaction of business by such Preferred Shares, with each Preferred Share entitling its holder to one vote per $25.00 in liquidation preference represented by such Preferred Share. A quorum for ACV or CBH at its Meeting will consist of the presence in person or by proxy of thirty-three and one-third percent (33¹⁄₂%) of the total Shares of the Fund entitled to vote at such Meeting, except that, where the Preferred Shares or Common Shares will vote as separate classes, then 33¹⁄₂% of the shares of each class entitled to vote will be necessary to constitute a quorum for the transaction of business by that class. If the quorum required for a Proposal has not been met, the persons named in the proxies may propose adjournment of the Meeting with respect to such Proposal and, if adjournment is proposed, will vote all Shares that they are entitled to vote in favor of such adjournment. Any adjournments with respect to the Proposal for a Fund will require the affirmative vote of a plurality of the Shares of the relevant Fund to be adjourned.

Where the Common Shares will vote as a separate class, the affirmative vote of a plurality of Common Shares present in person or by proxy at the session of the Meeting to be adjourned will be necessary to adjourn the Meeting with respect to such Common Shares. Where the Preferred Shares will vote as a separate class, the affirmative vote of a plurality of votes represented by the Preferred Shares present in person or by proxy at the session of the Meeting to be adjourned will be necessary to adjourn the Meeting with respect to such Preferred Shares, with each Preferred Share of NCV and NCZ entitling its holder to one vote per $25.00 in liquidation preference represented by such Preferred Share. The costs of any additional solicitation and of any adjourned session will be borne by the applicable Fund. Any proposals properly before the Meeting for which sufficient favorable votes have been received by the time of the Meeting will be acted upon and such action will be final regardless of whether the Meeting is adjourned to permit additional solicitation with respect to any other proposal with respect to which a quorum has not been reached. In certain circumstances in which a Fund has received sufficient votes to approve a matter being recommended for approval by the Fund’s Board, the Fund may request that brokers and nominee entities, in their discretion, withhold or withdraw submission of broker non-votes in order to avoid the need for solicitation of additional votes in favor of the proposal.

Votes cast by proxy or in person at the Meeting will be counted by persons appointed by NCV, NCZ, ACV, NIE, CBH and NFJ as tellers (collectively, the “Tellers”) for the Meeting. For purposes of determining the presence of a quorum for each Fund, the Tellers will include the total number of Shares present at the Meeting in person or by proxy, including Shares represented by proxies that reflect abstentions and “broker non-votes” (i.e., shares held by brokers or nominees as to which instructions have not been received from the beneficial owners or the persons entitled to vote and the broker or nominee does not have the discretionary voting power on a particular matter). For a proposal requiring approval of a plurality of votes cast, such as the election of Trustees, abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of such Proposal. For a proposal requiring approval by a specific percentage of shares present or outstanding, abstentions and broker non-votes will have the same effect as a vote against the proposal.

Shareholder Proposals for the Annual Meeting for the 2019-2020 Fiscal Year. It is currently anticipated that each Fund’s next annual meeting of Shareholders after the Meeting addressed in this Proxy Statement will be held in July, 2020. Proposals of Shareholders intended to be presented at that annual meeting of a Fund must be received by the applicable Fund no later than February 4, 2020 for inclusion in the Fund’s proxy statement and proxy cards relating to that meeting.

Shareholders submitting any other proposals (including proposals to elect Trustee nominees) for a Fund intended to be presented at the annual meeting for the 2020-2021 fiscal year (i.e., other than those to be included in the Fund’s proxy materials) must ensure that such proposals are received by the applicable Fund, in good order and complying with all applicable legal requirements and requirements set forth in the Fund’s Bylaws. Each Fund’s Bylaws provide that any such proposal must be received in writing by the Fund not less than 45 days nor more than 60 days prior to the first anniversary date of the date on which the Fund first mailed its proxy materials for the prior year’s shareholder meeting; provided that, if, in accordance with applicable law, the upcoming shareholder meeting is set for a date that is not within 30 days from the anniversary of the Fund’s prior shareholder meeting, such proposal must be received by the later of the close of business on (i) the date 45 days prior to such upcoming shareholder meeting date or (ii) the 10th business day following the date such upcoming shareholder meeting date is first publicly announced or disclosed.

Assuming the next annual meeting is ultimately scheduled to be within 30 days of the July 11 anniversary of this year’s meeting, such proposals must be received no earlier than April 4, 2020 and no later than April 19, 2020. If a Shareholder who wishes to present a proposal fails to notify the Fund within the dates described above,

42

the proxies solicited for the meeting will be voted on the Shareholder’s proposal, if it is properly brought before the meeting, in accordance with the judgment of the persons named in the enclosed proxy card(s). If a Shareholder makes a timely notification, the proxies may still exercise discretionary voting authority under circumstances consistent with the SEC’s proxy rules. Shareholder proposals should be addressed to the attention of the Secretary of the applicable Fund, at the address of the principal executive offices of the Fund, with a copy to David C. Sullivan, Ropes & Gray LLP, Prudential Tower, 800 Boylston Street, Boston, Massachusetts 02199-3600.

IT IS IMPORTANT THAT YOUR SHARES BE REPRESENTED AT THE APPLICABLE MEETING IN PERSON OR BY PROXY, NO MATTER HOW MANY SHARES YOU OWN. IF YOU DO NOT EXPECT TO ATTEND THE APPLICABLE MEETING, PLEASE COMPLETE, DATE, SIGN AND RETURN THE APPLICABLE ENCLOSED PROXY OR PROXIES IN THE ACCOMPANYING ENVELOPE, WHICH REQUIRES NO POSTAGE IF MAILED IN THE UNITED STATES.

Exhibit A to Proxy Statement

Audit Oversight Committee Charter

Allianz Global Investors U.S. LLC Sponsored Closed-End Funds

(Adopted as of January 14, 2004, as amended through June 14, 2011)

The Board of Trustees or Directors (each a “Board”) of each of the registered investment companies listed in Appendix A hereto (each a “Fund” and, collectively, the “Funds”), as the same may be periodically updated, has adopted this Charter to govern the activities of the Audit Oversight Committee (the “Committee”) of the particular Board with respect to its oversight of the Fund. This Charter applies separately to each Fund and its particular Board and Committee, and shall be interpreted accordingly. This Charter supersedes and replaces any audit committee charter previously adopted by the Board or a committee of the Board.

Statement of Purpose and Functions

The Committee’s general purpose is to oversee the Fund’s accounting and financial reporting policies and practices and its internal controls, including by assisting with the Board’s oversight of the integrity of the Fund’s financial statements, the Fund’s compliance with legal and regulatory requirements, the qualifications and independence of the Fund’s independent registered public accounting firm (“IA”), and the performance of the Fund’s internal control systems and IA. The Committee’s purpose is also to prepare reports required by Securities and Exchange Commission rules to be included in the Fund’s annual proxy statements, if any.

The Committee’s function is oversight. While the Committee has the responsibilities set forth in this Charter, it is not the responsibility of the Committee to plan or conduct audits, to prepare or determine that the Fund’s financial statements are complete and accurate and are in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, or to assure compliance with laws, regulations or any internal rules or policies of the Fund. Fund management is responsible for Fund accounting and the implementation and maintenance of the Fund’s internal control systems, and the IA is responsible for conducting a proper audit of the Fund’s financial statements. Members of the Committee are not employees of the Funds and, in serving on this Committee, are not, and do not hold themselves out to be, acting as accountants or auditors. As such, it is not the duty or responsibility of the Committee or its members to conduct “field work” or other types of auditing or accounting reviews or procedures. Each member of the Committee shall be entitled to rely on (i) the integrity of those persons and organizations within management and outside the Fund from which the Committee receives information and (ii) the accuracy of financial and other information provided to the Committee by such persons or organizations absent actual knowledge to the contrary.

44

Membership

The Committee shall be comprised of as many trustees as the Board shall determine, but in any event not less than three (3) Trustees. Each member of the Committee must be a member of the Board. The Board may remove or replace any member of the Committee at any time in its sole discretion. One or more members of the Committee may be designated by the Board as the Committee’s chairman or co- chairman, as the case may be.

Each member of the Committee may not be an “interested person” of the Fund, as defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), and must otherwise satisfy the standards for independence of an audit committee member of an investment company issuer as set forth in Rule 10A-3(b) (taking into account any exceptions to those requirements set for in such rule) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and under applicable listing standards of the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”). Each member of the Committee must be “financially literate” (or must become so within a reasonable time after his or her appointment to the Committee) and at least one member of the Committee must have “accounting or related financial management expertise,” in each case as the Board interprets such qualification in its business judgment under NYSE listing standards.

Responsibilities and Duties

The Committee’s policies and procedures shall remain flexible to facilitate the Committee’s ability to react to changing conditions and to generally discharge its functions. The following describe areas of attention in broad terms. The Committee shall:

1. Determine the selection, retention or termination of the Fund’s IA based on an evaluation of their independence and the nature and performance of the audit and any permitted non-audit services. Decisions by the Committee concerning the selection, retention or termination of the IA shall be submitted to the Board for ratification in accordance with the requirements of Section 32(a) of the Investment Company Act. The Fund’s IA must report directly to the Committee, which shall be responsible for resolution of disagreements between management and the IA relating to financial reporting.

2. To consider the independence of the Fund’s IA at least annually, and in connection therewith receive on a periodic basis formal written disclosures and letters from the IA as required by Rule 3526 of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board.

3. To the extent required by applicable regulations, pre-approve (i) all audit and permitted non-audit services rendered by the IA to the Fund and (ii) all non-audit services rendered by the IA to the Fund’s investment advisers (including sub-advisers)

45

and to certain of the investment advisers’ affiliates. The Committee may implement policies and procedures by which such services are approved other than by the full Committee.

4. Review the fees charged by the IA to the Fund, the investment advisers and certain affiliates of the investment advisers for audit, audit-related and permitted non-audit services.

5. If and to the extent that the Fund intends to have employees, set clear policies for the hiring by the Fund of employees or former employees of the Fund’s IA.

6. Obtain and review at least annually a report from the IA describing (i) the IA’s internal quality-control procedures and (ii) any material issues raised (a) by the IA’s most recent internal quality-control review or peer review or (b) by any governmental or other professional inquiry or investigation performed within the preceding five years respecting one or more IA carried out by the firm, and any steps taken to address any such issues.

7. Review with the Fund’s IA arrangements for and the scope of the annual audit and any special audits, including the form of any opinion proposed to be rendered to the Board and shareholders of the Fund.

8. Meet with management and the IA to review and discuss the Fund’s annual audited financial statements, including a review of any specific disclosures of management’s discussion of the Fund’s investment performance; and, with respect to the Fund’s audited financial statements, discuss with the IA matters required by Statement of Accounting Standards (“SAS”) No. 61 and any other matters required to be reported to the Committee under applicable law; and provide a statement whether, based on its review of the Fund’s audited financial statements, the Committee recommends to the Board that the audited financial statements be included in the Fund’s Annual Report.

Meet with management to review and discuss the Fund’s unaudited financial statements included in the semi-annual report, including, if any, a review of any specific disclosure of management’s discussion of the Fund’s investment performance

9. Discuss with management and, as needed, the IA the Fund’s unaudited financial statements.

10. Review with the IA any audit problems or difficulties encountered in the course of their audit work and management’s responses thereto.

11. Review with management and, as applicable, with the IA the Fund’s accounting and financial reporting policies, practices and internal controls, including the effect on the Fund of any recommendation of changes in accounting principles or practices by management or the IA.

46

12. Discuss with management its policies with respect to risk assessment and risk management.

13. Discuss with management any press releases discussing the Fund’s investment performance and other financial information about the Fund, as well as any financial information provided by management to analysts or rating agencies.

AllianzGI Diversified Income & Convertible Fund (“ACV”)

(each, a “Fund” and, collectively, the “Funds”)

Dated March 21, 2019

The Audit Oversight Committees (collectively, the “Committee”) oversee the Funds’ financial reporting process on behalf of the Board of Trustees of each Fund (collectively, the “Board”) and operate under a written Charter adopted by the Board. The Committee meets with the Funds’ management (“Management”) and independent registered public accounting firm and reports the results of its activities to the Board. Management has the primary responsibility for the financial statements and the reporting process, including the system of internal controls. In connection with the Committee’s and independent accountant’s responsibilities, Management has advised that the Funds’ financial statements for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2019 were prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

The Committee has reviewed and discussed with Management and PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (“PwC”), the Funds’ independent registered public accounting firm, the audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2019. The Committee has discussed with PwC the matters required to be discussed by Statements on Auditing Standard No. 1301 — Communications with Audit Committees (“SAS 1301”). SAS 1301 requires the independent registered public accounting firm to communicate to the Committee matters including, if applicable: 1) methods used to account for significant unusual transactions; 2) the effect of significant accounting policies in controversial or emerging areas for which there is a lack of authoritative guidance or consensus; 3) the process used by management in formulating particularly sensitive accounting estimates and the basis for the auditor’s conclusions regarding the reasonableness of those estimates; and 4) disagreements with Management over the application of accounting principles and certain other matters.

With respect to each Fund, the Committee has received the written disclosure and the letter from PwC required by Rule 3526 of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (requiring registered public accounting firms to make written disclosure to and discuss with the Committee various matters relating to the auditor’s independence), and has discussed with PwC their independence. The Committee has also reviewed the aggregate fees billed by PwC for professional services rendered to each Fund and for non-audit services provided to Allianz Global Investors U.S. LLC (“AllianzGI U.S.”), each Fund’s investment manager , and any entity controlling, controlled by or under common control with AllianzGI U.S. that provided services to a Fund. As part of this review, the Committee considered, in addition to other practices and requirements relating to selection of the Fund’s independent registered public accounting firm, whether the provision of such non-audit services was compatible with maintaining the independence of PwC.

The members of the Committee are not employed by the Funds as experts in the fields of auditing or accounting and are not employed by the Funds for accounting, financial management or internal control purposes. Members of the Committee rely without independent verification on the information provided and the representations made to them by management and PwC.

Based on the foregoing review and discussions, and subject to the limitation on the role and responsibilities of the Audit Oversight Committees set forth above, the Committee presents this Report to the Board and recommends that (1) the audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2019 be included in the relevant Fund’s Annual Report to shareholders for such fiscal year, (2) such Annual Report be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and the New York Stock Exchange and (3) PwC be reappointed as each Fund’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending January 31, 2020.
