<p>这些基金根据管理分配计划进行分配，该计划规定以每年最低固定利率 8.00% 为 Allspring Utilities and High Income Fund，8.75% 为 Allspring Income Opportunities Fund，以及 8.75% 为 Allspring Multi-Sector Income Fund，向基金的普通股股东声明每月分配，基于基金在过去 12 个月的平均每股净资产值（NAV）。根据管理分配计划，分配来源于收入，也可能来源于实收资本和/或资本收益。基金在任何期间的分配可能多于或少于基金在其投资上获得的净回报，因此不应作为业绩的衡量标准或与收益或收入混淆。超过基金回报的分配将导致基金的净资产值下降。投资者不应根据基金的分配金额或管理分配计划的条款得出关于基金投资表现的任何结论。</p>
<p>Allspring Income Opportunities Fund 是一个封闭式高收益债券基金。该基金的投资目标是寻求高水平的当前收入。该基金可能作为次要目标，寻求资本增值，以符合其投资目标。</p>
<p>Allspring Multi-Sector Income Fund 是一个封闭式收入基金。该基金的投资目标是寻求高水平的当前收入，同时限制其对国内利率风险的整体暴露。</p>
<p>Allspring Utilities and High Income Fund 是一个封闭式股票和高收益债券基金。该基金的投资目标是寻求高水平的当前收入和适度的资本增长，重点提供税收优惠的股息收入。</p>
<p>本年度所有股息分配的最终来源确定将在年末后进行。用于税务报告的实际金额和来源将取决于基金在财政年度剩余期间的投资经验，并可能根据税收法规的变化而有所不同。每个基金将在日历年向股东发送 1099-DIV 表格，告知股东如何为联邦所得税目的报告这些分配。</p>

<p>这些封闭式基金的股份仅可在其上市的证券交易所以当前市场价格进行购买和出售。基金的股份可能以溢价或折价交易，相对于基金的净资产值，并且不能保证任何折价会减少。基金持有的证券的价值和/或产生的收入可能因一般市场条件或其他因素而下降，包括直接涉及这些证券发行人的因素。</p>
<p>股票证券的价值会因与证券发行人相关的特定因素而波动。债务证券面临信用风险和利率风险，高收益证券和类似信用质量的未评级证券的违约风险更大，其价值往往比具有相似到期日的高评级证券更为波动。由于政治气候变化、外国市场不稳定和外汇波动等固有风险，外国投资可能包含更多风险。国际投资的风险在新兴或发展市场中被放大。集中投资于单一行业或部门的基金可能面临比更为多样化的基金更大的价格波动风险，因为该行业或部门的不利发展。小型和中型市值证券可能面临与其大型市值同行相比，产品线较窄和财务资源有限相关的特殊风险。每个基金通过循环信贷设施进行杠杆，并且未来可能通过发行优先股来增加杠杆。</p>
<p>使用杠杆会带来某些风险，包括但不限于净资产值和普通股市场价格更大波动的可能性。衍生品涉及额外风险，包括利率风险、信用风险、不当估值风险以及与其设计对冲或紧密跟踪的相关工具不相关的风险。与证券期权交易相关的风险众多。</p>

</div><p>These funds make distributions in accordance with a managed distribution plan that provides for the declaration of monthly distributions to common shareholders of the fund at an annual minimum fixed rate of 8.00% for the Allspring Utilities and High Income Fund, 8.75% for the Allspring Income Opportunities Fund, and 8.75% for the Allspring Multi-Sector Income Fund based on the fund's average monthly net asset value (NAV) per share over the prior 12 months. Under the managed distribution plan, distributions are sourced from income and also may be sourced from paid-in capital and/or capital gains. The fund's distributions in any period may be more or less than the net return earned by the fund on its investments and therefore should not be used as a measure of performance or confused with yield or income. Distributions in excess of fund returns will cause the fund's NAV to decline. Investors should not draw any conclusions about the fund's investment performance from the amount of its distribution or from the terms of its managed distribution plan.</p>

</div><p>The final determination of the source of all dividend distributions in the current year will be made after year-end. The actual amounts and sources of the amounts for tax-reporting purposes will depend upon a fund's investment experience during the remainder of the fiscal year and may be subject to change based on tax regulations.

</div><p>Shares of these closed-end funds are only available for purchase and sale at the current market price on the stock exchange on which it is listed. Shares of a fund may trade at either a premium or discount relative to the fund's net asset value, and there can be no assurance that any discount will decrease.

</div><p>Equity securities fluctuate in value in response to factors specific to the issuer of the security. Debt securities are subject to credit risk and interest rate risk, and high-yield securities and unrated securities of similar credit quality have a much greater risk of default and their values tend to be more volatile than higher-rated securities with similar maturities. Foreign investments may contain more risk due to the inherent risks associated with changing political climates, foreign market instability, and foreign currency fluctuations. Risks of international investing are magnified in emerging or developing markets. Funds that concentrate their investments in a single industry or sector may face increased risk of price fluctuation over more diversified funds due to adverse developments within that industry or sector. Small- and mid-cap securities may be subject to special risks associated with narrower product lines and limited financial resources compared with their large-cap counterparts. Each fund is leveraged through a revolving credit facility and also may incur leverage by issuing preferred shares in the future.</p>
