Allocation Fund Cash Distribution Ex-Date: October 14, 2008Record
Date: October 16, 2008Payable Date: October 31, 2008 The Fund has
approximately $320 million in total assets, the net asset value was
$16.99 per share and the market price was $13.75 as of October 1,
2008. Subject to market conditions, the Fund intends to distribute
subsequent regular quarterly cash distributions. Chuck Clough,
founder of Clough Capital Partners and portfolio manager for the
Fund notes, �Our intent has been, and continues to be, that the
distribution should reflect the changes in the Fund�s net asset
value over time. Due to the recent decline in the Fund�s net asset
value and the challenging overall market conditions that exist, we
think it is appropriate to decrease the Fund�s distribution at this
time to a level that we believe is more sustainable. We are
confident, however, that the current financial turmoil is creating
longer term opportunities in global equities.� A portion of the
distribution may be treated as paid from sources other than net
income, including but not limited to short-term capital gain,
long-term capital gain and return of capital. The final
determination of the source of all distributions in 2008, including
the percentage of qualified dividend income, will be made after
year-end. The Clough Global Allocation Fund The Fund is a
