RFR Rmr F I R E Fd

After the close of business on Wednesday, June 17, 2009, RMR Real Estate Fund (NYSE Amex: RMR) was reorganized into RMR Real Estate Income Fund.

On Wednesday, June 17, 2009, the NAV for RIF was $4.240, and RIF completed a 4:1 reverse stock split. Accordingly, the opening NAV of RIF on Thursday, June 18, 2009 will be $16.952. On Wednesday, June 17, 2009, the closing net asset value per share (�NAV�) of common stock for RMR was $3.306. Since the reorganization was based on the relative NAVs of these funds, the reorganization conversion ratio resulted in RMR common shareholders receiving 0.195 shares of RIF common stock for each share of RMR common stock they previously held. Common shareholders of RMR may receive fractional shares in connection with the reorganization.

RMR Real Estate Income Fund will trade on the NYSE Amex using the ticker symbol �RIF�. RIF�s NAV will be reported under the ticker �XRMRX� until further notice.

As a result of the reorganization, preferred shareholders of RMR received an equivalent number of shares of a new series of RIF preferred stock, �Series T�. The auction date, rate period, dividend payment date and liquidation preference per share of the RIF preferred stock, Series T, received by RMR preferred shareholders in the reorganization is the same as the RMR preferred stock, Series T, that RMR preferred shareholders exchanged in the reorganization.

The CUSIP numbers of the RIF common stock and preferred stock are different from the CUSIP numbers of the RMR common stock and preferred stock, respectively. RIF�s common stock CUSIP number is 74964K609 and RIF�s preferred stock, Series T, CUSIP number is 74964K302.

As previously announced, common shareholders of record of RMR will receive the following final cash distribution consisting of the fund's estimated undistributed federal investment company taxable income and net capital gains:

Record Date � � � Pay Date* � � � Amount Per Share June 16, 2009 June 30, 2009 $0.0747

*On or about.

RMR has substantial investments in real estate investment trusts. Because real estate investment trusts generally classify distributions to RMR subsequent to the end of each calendar year as ordinary income, net capital gain or return of capital, it is expected that some portion of the distribution declared by RMR may be similarly characterized for tax purposes subsequent to this year end.

The existing common shares and preferred shares of RMR will be cancelled and the fund will be dissolved under applicable state law as soon as practicable.

Also, as previously announced, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions set forth in each Agreement and Plan of Reorganization, the reorganization of each of RMR Hospitality and Real Estate Fund (NYSE Amex: RHR), RMR F.I.R.E. Fund (NYSE Amex: RFR), RMR Preferred Dividend Fund (NYSE Amex: RDR) and RMR Dividend Capture Fund (NYSE Amex: RCR) with RIF are currently expected to close after the end of business on the following dates:

• RFR: Thursday, June 18, 2009
• RHR: Friday, June 19, 2009
• RCR: Monday, June 22, 2009
• RDR: Tuesday, June 23, 2009

Details of the common share conversions and dividend payment amounts, if any, will be determined after the end of business on each of the aforementioned closing dates and will be announced by press release prior to the beginning of trading on the NYSE Amex on the first business day following each closing date.
