On March 17, 2022 RiverNorth Opportunities
Fund, Inc. (the “Fund”) announced that the Fund’s Board of Directors had approved a new investment advisory agreement
with RiverNorth Capital Management, LLC (“RiverNorth”), subject to shareholder approval. The Fund’s current investment
adviser, ALPS Advisors and RiverNorth, the Fund’s current sub-adviser, made the recommendation to the Board of Directors at a meeting
held on March 17, 2022.
The new investment advisory agreement
will not affect the Fund’s name, investment objective, investment strategy, portfolio management, or ticker symbol. Since the Fund’s
inception, RiverNorth has been responsible for making day-to-day investment decisions, with the anticipated transition to adviser, no
changes are expected.
Shareholders of the Fund will
receive a related proxy statement describing the proposal and will be asked to consider the approval of the new investment advisory agreement
at a special shareholder meeting that will take place in the second quarter of this year. If approved by shareholders, the Fund anticipates
the transition between ALPS Advisors and RiverNorth will occur in the third quarter of 2022.
