Neuberger Berman Closed-End Funds Announce Final Results of Tender Offers

Neuberger Berman California Intermediate Municipal Fund Inc. (NYSE Amex: NBW), Neuberger Berman Income Opportunity Fund Inc. (NYSE Amex: NOX) and Neuberger Berman Real Estate Securities Income Fund Inc. (NYSE Amex: NRO) (each, a “Fund” and, collectively, the “Funds”) each announced the final results of its tender offer.

The tender offers, which expired at 5:00 p.m., New York City time on Friday October 16, 2009, were oversubscribed. In accordance with the terms of each Fund’s Offer to Purchase, notwithstanding that its tender offer is oversubscribed, each Fund will accept all common stock properly tendered by stockholders holding fewer than 100 shares of common stock who tendered all their shares and provided appropriate certification as part of their tender (“odd-lot adjustment”). Since the total number of shares tendered exceeds the number of shares each Fund offered to purchase, each Fund will purchase the maximum percentage of outstanding common stock previously announced (10% for each of NOX and NBW and 5% for NRO) on a pro-rata basis, after making the odd-lot adjustment, based on the number of shares properly tendered, the “Pro-Ration Factor.” The final results of the tender offers are provided in the table below.
