Important Information Regarding 2021 Shareholder Meeting

The annual meeting of shareholders (the “Annual Meeting”) of Nuveen Global High Income Fund (NYSE:JGH) (the “Fund”) has been scheduled for April 6, 2021.

The Board has nominated Jack B. Evans, Albin F. Moschner and Matthew Thornton III to stand for election at the Annual Meeting to serve as Class III Trustees for a term expiring at the annual meeting of shareholders to be held in 2024 or until their successors have been duly elected and qualified.

On December 18, 2020, the Fund received a notice from Saba Capital Master Fund, Ltd. of its intention to nominate persons for election as trustees at the Annual Meeting. The Board intends to meet to consider this notice and make a recommendation in due course that it believes will best serve the interests of the Fund and all of its shareholders.

This communication is not a solicitation of a proxy from any Fund shareholder. The Board will present its recommendation regarding trustee nominees in the Fund’s proxy statement and other materials, to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and made available to all shareholders eligible to vote at the Annual Meeting. Promptly after filing its definitive proxy statement in connection with the solicitation of proxies for the Annual Meeting (the “2021 Proxy Statement”) with the SEC, the Fund will mail the 2021 Proxy Statement and a WHITE proxy card to each shareholder entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting.

Fund shareholders do not need to take any action at this time.

Additional information regarding the interests of such potential participants will be included in the 2021 Proxy Statement and other relevant documents to be filed with the SEC in connection with the Annual Meeting.

Promptly after filing its definitive 2021 Proxy Statement with the SEC, the Fund will mail the definitive 2021 Proxy Statement and a WHITE proxy card to each shareholder entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting.
