IMPORTANT NOTICE YOUR RESPONSE IS NEEDED
PIMCO
July 20, 2021
To our shareholders:
The Board of Trustees of PIMCO Dynamic Income Fund (“PDI”) & PIMCO Income Opportunity Fund (“PKO”) is requesting that shareholders vote on proposals relating to the reorganizations of each of PKO and PIMCO Dynamic Credit and Mortgage Income Fund (“PCI”) with and into PDI (the “Reorganizations”) at a Special Meeting of Shareholders scheduled for August 6, 2021 (the “Special Meeting”).
please take a moment now to cast your vote

For your convenience, the joint proxy statement/prospectus is also located at https://vote.proxyonline.com/PIMCOFunds/docs/PDI__PKO_PROXY.pdf. For assistance in voting your shares, please call 1 (800) 814-0439 Extension 12.
PROXY VOTING OPTIONS
1. MAIL your signed and voted proxy back in the postage paid envelope provided
2. ONLINE at the website indicated on the enclosed proxy card
3. By PHONE with a live operator when you call toll-free 1-800-814- 0439 Ext. 12 Monday through Friday 9 a.m. to 10 p.m. Eastern Time
What are shareholders being asked to approve?
PDI - shareholders are asked to approve the issuance of additional common shares of beneficial interest of PDI to be issued to the common shareholders of PKO and PCI in connection with the acquisition by PDI of all of the assets and liabilities of each of PKO and PCI.
PKO - shareholders are asked to approve an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization pursuant to which PKO would be reorganized with and into PDI.
How will the Reorganizations affect my investment?
If you are a shareholder of PDI, the Reorganizations will not affect the number of PDI shares that you own or the net asset value of those shares. Because PDI will issue additional common shares in connection with the Reorganizations, your shares will represent a smaller portion of PDI’s assets and voting rights following the Reorganizations. If you are a shareholder of PKO, you will receive common shares of PDI (and cash in lieu of fractional shares, if any) with a net asset value equal to the net asset value of the common shares of PKO that you own on the date of the consummation of the Reorganization of PKO into PDI.
Why has the Board recommended the Reorganizations?
The Board believes the Reorganizations will benefit shareholders of each Fund in several ways, including but not limited to the potential for greater access to attractive investment opportunities and investment efficiencies for the combined fund as well as greater secondary market liquidity and increased trading volume relative to each fund as a result of the combined fund’s larger asset base, which may result in potentially tighter bid-ask spreads and better trade execution for the combined fund’s shareholders when purchasing or selling shares.
