DEAR FELLOW SHAREHOLDER:
As promised, I continue to update you in connection with the Joint
Special Meeting of Shareholders of Stone Harbor Emerging Markets Income Fund and Stone Harbor Emerging Markets Total Income Fund (the
“Funds”).
We received strong support from your fellow investors in connection
with the meeting agenda. We passed the Election of Trustees proposal and received FOR votes of approximately 80% of votes cast for approval
of a new investment advisory agreement (Proposal 2) and approval of a new subadvisory agreement (Proposal 3). Unfortunately, we are slightly
short of the vote requirement for Proposal 2 and 3 and have adjourned the Joint Shareholder Meeting until February 17, 2022. The additional
votes needed is attributed to voting rules that impose different requirements depending on the proposal. We ask for the support of unvoted
retail shareholders to pass the proposals.
Please make one last effort to join your fellow shareholders in supporting
the meeting agenda by signing, dating, and mailing the enclosed proxy card in the prepaid envelope or follow the instructions below to
vote by internet or telephone.
