The following dates apply to the distributions declared:

The Fund's Board of Trustees may amend the terms of, or terminate, the managed distribution policy at any time without prior notice to shareholders. Investors should not make any conclusions about the Fund's investment performance from the amount of the Fund's distributions or distribution policy. 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.

For any distribution that does not consist solely of net investment income, the Fund will issue a notice to shareholders that will provide detailed information regarding the amount and composition of the distribution and other related information. The amounts and sources of distributions reported in the notice to shareholders are only estimates and are not provided for tax reporting purposes. The actual amounts and sources of the amounts for tax reporting purposes will depend upon the Fund's investment experience during its full fiscal year and are subject to changes based on tax regulations. The final determination of the source of all distributions, including the percentage of qualified dividend income, will be made after year-end.

The Clough Global Equity Fund is a closed-end fund and closed-end funds do not continuously issue shares for sale as open-end mutual funds do. Since the initial public offering, the Fund now trades in the secondary market. Investors wishing to buy or sell shares need to place orders through an intermediary or broker. The share price of a closed-end fund is based on the market's value.

An investment in the Fund is subject to investment risk, including the possible loss of the entire principal amount invested. An investment in the Fund represents an indirect investment in the securities owned by the Fund, which are generally traded on a securities exchange or in the over-the-counter markets. The value of these securities, like other market investments, may move up or down, sometimes rapidly and unpredictably. An investment in the Fund's shares may be worth less than the original investment, even after taking into account any reinvestment of dividends and distributions. The Fund utilizes leverage, which may increase the volatility of the Fund's NAV. If leverage costs exceed the income from the Fund's leveraged investments, use of leverage may reduce the Fund's returns.

The Fund's distribution policy may, under certain circumstances, have adverse consequences to the Fund and its shareholders because it may result in a return of capital resulting in less of a shareholder's assets being invested in the Fund and, over time, increase the Fund's expense ratio.

The performance data quoted above represents past performance. Past performance does not guarantee future results, and current performance may be lower or higher than the performance quoted. For the most current month-end performance data, please visit www.cloughcapital.com/cefs/glq. Performance reflects the deduction of management fees and other applicable expenses. Dividends and distributions, if any, are assumed to be reinvested at a price obtained under the Fund's dividend reinvestment plan.
