PIMCO Global Income Opportunities Fund Renews At-The-Market Equity Program

TORONTO, ONTARIO (February 18, 2025) – PIMCO Global Income Opportunities Fund (TSX: PGI.UN) (the “Fund”) announced today that the Fund has renewed its at-the-market equity program (the “ATM Program”). The ATM Program allows the Fund to issue Class A units of the Fund (the “Units”) having an aggregate sale price of up to $80,000,000, to the public from time to time, at the discretion of PIMCO Canada Corp. (the “Manager”). Any Units issued under the ATM Program will be sold at the prevailing market price at the time of sale through the Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX”) or any other marketplace in Canada on which the Units are listed, quoted or otherwise traded. This ATM Program replaces the prior at-the-market equity program of the Fund, which commenced on January 20, 2023 and expired on February 16, 2025.

The volume and timing of distributions under the ATM Program, if any, will be determined at the Manager’s sole discretion. The ATM Program will be effective until March 14, 2027, unless terminated prior to such date by the Fund. The Fund intends to use the proceeds from the ATM Program in accordance with its investment objectives, investment strategies and investment restrictions.

Sales of Units through the ATM Program will be made pursuant to the terms of an equity distribution agreement entered into by the Fund (the “Equity Distribution Agreement”), dated February 18, 2025, with National Bank Financial Inc. (the “Agent”).

Sales of Units will be made by way of “at-the-market distributions” as defined in National Instrument 44-102 Shelf Distributions on the TSX or on any marketplace for the Units in Canada. Since Units will be distributed at prevailing market prices at the time of the sale, prices may vary among purchasers during the period of distribution. The ATM Program is being offered pursuant to a prospectus supplement dated February 18, 2025 (the “Prospectus Supplement”) to the Fund’s short form base shelf prospectus dated February 14, 2025 (the “Shelf Prospectus”).

Copies of the Prospectus Supplement, the Shelf Prospectus and the Equity Distribution Agreement may be obtained from your registered financial advisor using the contact information for such advisor, or from representatives of the Agent, and are available on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca.

The Manager retains Pacific Investment Management Company LLC (“PIMCO”), to provide investment management services to the Fund.
