Tax-Free Fixed Income Fund III for Puerto Rico Residents, Inc. Announces Adjournment of Annual Meeting of Shareholders to September 22, 2022

SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico – July 28, 2022 – Tax-Free Fixed Income Fund III for Puerto Rico Residents, Inc. (the “Fund”) today convened and then adjourned the Annual Meeting of Shareholders of the Fund (the “Annual Meeting”) without transacting any other business. The Annual Meeting, which was originally convened on October 28, 2021 and was subsequently adjourned to November 30, 2021, January 13, 2022, February 17, 2022, March 17, 2022, May 5, 2022, June 9, 2022, and July 28, 2022 has been adjourned again to be reconvened virtually on Thursday, September 22, 2022 at 11:30 AM Atlantic Standard Time (11:30 AM Eastern Daylight Time).

The transaction of business at the Annual Meeting requires a quorum of more than one-half of the outstanding shares of the Fund entitled to vote, represented in person or by proxy. Based on a determination by the inspectors of election, there was no quorum present at the Annual Meeting. Accordingly, the Annual Meeting has been adjourned to provide the Fund with additional time to solicit proxies from its shareholders to achieve a quorum at the Annual Meeting.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS, INCLUDING ALL THE INDEPENDENT DIRECTORS, RECOMMENDS THAT THE SHAREHOLDERS VOTE ON THE WHITE PROXY CARD: (1) “FOR” PROPOSAL 1 TO ELECT THE THREE DIRECTOR NOMINEES NAMED THEREIN FOR ELECTION AS DIRECTORS OF THE FUND TO SERVE UNTIL THE END OF THEIR RESPECTIVE TERM OR UNTIL THEIR SUCCESSORS ARE ELECTED AND QUALIFIED; AND (2) “AGAINST” PROPOSAL 2 TO REPEAL ANY PROVISION OF, OR AMENDMENT TO, THE AMENDED AND RESTATED BY-LAWS OF THE FUND ADOPTED BY THE BOARD WITHOUT THE APPROVAL OF THE FUND’S SHAREHOLDERS SUBSEQUENT TO SEPTEMBER 23, 2021. THESE PROPOSALS ARE DISCUSSED IN GREATER DETAIL IN THE PROXY STATEMENT, WHICH WE ADVISE YOU TO READ IN ITS ENTIRETY.

The record date for the adjourned Annual Meeting remains the close of business on September 8, 2021. Shareholders who have already voted do not need to recast their votes unless they wish to change their votes. Proxies previously submitted will be voted at the reconvened meeting unless properly revoked. Shareholders who have not already voted or wish to change their vote are encouraged to do so promptly using the instructions provided in their voting instruction form or proxy card.

The Board of Directors does not know of any matters to be properly brought before the Annual Meeting other than the proposals described in the Proxy Statement.

In the event you receive any materials from Ocean Capital LLC (“Ocean Capital”) or any of its affiliates, we urge you to discard any such materials. The Fund also encourages you NOT to sign or return any blue proxy cards that may be sent to you by Ocean Capital or any of its affiliates in favor of Ocean Capital’s director nominees or shareholder proposal. If you vote—or have already voted—using a blue proxy card sent to you by Ocean Capital, you can revoke it by voting using the WHITE proxy card sent to you or by voting virtually at the Annual Meeting. Only your latest dated proxy will count, and any proxy may be revoked at any time prior to its exercise at the Annual Meeting.

If shareholders have questions about how to vote their shares, they should immediately contact the Fund’s proxy solicitor, Okapi Partners, at (877) 566-1922 or at info@okapipartners.com.
