4 August, 2026

Dear Registered Shareholder,

1. Introduction

As you are aware, the Company is an investment company with variable capital and with segregated liability between Funds, incorporated with limited liability under the laws of Ireland, authorised on 9 December, 2010 by the Central Bank of Ireland (the "Central Bank") pursuant to the European Communities (Undertakings for Collective Investment in Transferable Securities) Regulations 2011, as amended (the "Regulations"). The Company is an umbrella company, which comprises a number of sub-funds.

Unless the context otherwise requires and except as varied or otherwise specified in this circular, words and expressions (including defined terms) used in the circular shall bear the same meaning as in the current Prospectus of the Company.

The Directors will convene an annual general meeting of the Company on 16 September, 2026, at which the General Business outlined below will be presented to Citivic Nominees Limited as the sole registered Shareholder of the Company (the "Registered Shareholder").

As the Company uses the International Central Securities Depository ("ICSD") model of settlement and Citivic Nominees Limited is the sole Registered Shareholder of the Company under the ICSD settlement model, physical attendance of investors who are not the Registered Shareholder does not take place at annual general meetings of the Company. Investors should send voting instructions through the relevant ICSD or the relevant participant in an ICSD (such as a local central securities depository). If any investor has invested in Funds of the Company through a broker/dealer/other intermediary, the investor should contact this entity or its relevant proxy voting agent to provide voting instructions. The Registered Shareholder will collate the voting instructions of each investor and will vote in favour of or against the proposed amendments based on the voting instructions received.

General Business

(a) To receive and consider the Directors' report, the Auditor's report and financial statements for the fiscal year ended 31 March, 2026 and to review the Company's affairs

The Registered Shareholder will be asked to receive and consider the Directors' report, the Auditor's report and financial statements for the fiscal year ended 31 March, 2026 (which are available at www.pimco.com) and to review the Company's affairs.

(b) To re-appoint Grant Thornton as Auditors to the Company

The Registered Shareholder will be asked to approve the reappointment of Grant Thornton as Auditors to the Company.

2

(c) To authorise the Directors to fix the remuneration of the Auditors

The Registered Shareholder will be asked to authorise the Directors to fix the annual remuneration of the Auditors.

Special Business

Amendments to the Memorandum & Articles of Association of the Company

Subject to Shareholder approval and the requirements of the Central Bank, it is proposed to make the following amendments to the Articles of Association to include all re-numbering and updating of cross-references and dates, as appropriate.

The text of the proposed changes to the Articles of Association are outlined in Appendix III.

1. Liquidity Management Tools

It is proposed to amend the Articles of Association to comply with the disclosure requirements pertaining to the use of liquidity management tools ("LMTs") introduced by Directive (EU) 2024/927 (the "Omnibus Directive") and the related regulatory technical standards adopted by the European Commission (the "RTS", together with the Omnibus Directive, the "LMT Requirements").

The existing provisions in the Articles of Association are being updated in accordance with the LMT requirements for the following LMTs:

· Side Pockets - while the Articles of Association currently provide for the power to introduce side pockets, the mechanics on how it would operate in practice are to be aligned with the LMT Requirements. Side pockets can only be used in exceptional circumstances and shareholders shall be notified in the event of activation;

· Redemption Gates - the current power to implement a redemption gate shall be updated to align with the LMT Requirements. Currently, the redemption gate thresholds are expressed as a proportion of the Net Asset Value of a Fund; and

· Redemption Fees - while redemption fees are not currently imposed by the Company, it is proposed to align the disclosure requirements with those of the Central Bank and the LMT Requirements. The Company shall not implement redemption fees in practice until Shareholders have been notified in advance. The Company does not currently intend to implement redemption fees.

2. Update to list of Issuers for Specific Investment

It is proposed to amend the Articles of Association to add a new issuer to the Specific Investment list, in accordance with the revised list provided by the Central Bank. The specific issuer to be added is:

· Government of Saudi Arabia. 2. Shareholders' Approval

For the sanctioning of the ordinary resolutions in relation to the re-appointment of Grant Thornton as Auditors to the Company and the authorisation of the Directors to fix the remuneration of the Auditors, the Registered Shareholder must pass the ordinary resolutions (consisting of a simple majority of the total number of votes cast).

The sanctioning of the proposed amendments to the Company's Memorandum & Articles of Association, requires a special resolution to be passed in favour of that proposal by a majority of Shareholders of the Company, consisting of seventy-five per cent (75%) or more of the total number of votes cast present in person or by proxy, who cast votes at the annual general meeting of the Shareholders of the Company.

The quorum for the annual general meeting of the Company is one Registered Shareholder present (in person or by proxy). If within half an hour from the time appointed for the annual general meeting, a quorum is not present, it shall be adjourned to the same day in the next week, at the same time and place or to such other day and at such other time and place as the Directors may determine.

3

If you are a registered holder of Shares, you will receive a proxy form with this circular. Please read the notes printed on the form, which will assist you in completing the proxy form, and return the proxy form to us. To be valid, your appointment of proxy must be received no later than 48 hours before the time appointed for the annual general meeting and therefore by 1 p.m. on 14 September, 2026 (Irish time) at the latest.

3. Fees and Expenses

The legal and administrative costs of drafting and implementing the proposed change to the Company's Articles of Association will be borne by the Company's Manager, PIMCO Global Advisors (Ireland) Limited.

4. Director's Recommendation

We believe that the proposed resolutions are in the best interests of investors as a whole and therefore recommend that you vote in favour of the proposals. These proposals do not change the value of your investments.

We propose that the suggested change to the Articles of Association of the Company as outlined above be approved at the annual general meeting of the Company by way of special business after the general business has been considered. Should you be in any doubt as to the actions you should take, we recommend that you consult with your own tax and legal advisers.

Investors may continue to redeem their investments in the Company free of charge on any Dealing Day in accordance with the provisions of the Prospectus.
