The Fund's dividend policy is established by its Board of Trustees. The dividend is set by the Board at regular intervals with consideration of investment income and realized gains expected for the year. Each distribution is expected to be paid from some or all of the following sources: net investment income, realized capital gains and, in certain cases, return of capital. The Fund's distribution rate should not be confused with pure income or yield. The Fund strives to establish a level regular dividend that, over the course of the year, will serve to distribute all income and realized gains, minimizing the need for special distributions.

CBRE Clarion Global Real Estate Income Fund is a closed-end fund, which is traded on the New York Stock Exchange, and invests primarily in real estate securities. Holdings are subject to change. Past performance is no guarantee of future results.

For the current fiscal year (January 1, 2013 to June 30, 2013), the Fund has made or declared six (6) regular monthly distributions totaling $0.27 per share. The source of the distributions declared for the current month and fiscal year to date is estimated as follows:

The amounts and sources of distributions reported are only estimates and are not provided for tax reporting purposes.The actual amounts and sources of the amounts for accounting and tax reporting purposes will depend upon the Fund's investment experience during the remainder of its fiscal year and may be subject to changes based on tax regulations.

SHAREHOLDERS SHOULD NOT USE THE INFORMATION PROVIDED HERE IN PREPARING THEIR TAX RETURNS.SHAREHOLDERS WILL RECEIVE A FORM 1099-DIV FOR THE CALENDAR YEAR INDICATING HOW TO REPORT FUND DISTRIBUTIONS FOR FEDERAL INCOME TAX PURPOSES.

The Fund invests primarily in real estate investment trusts (REITs) and similar companies. When these companies make distributions during the year, they do not disclose the character of those distributions. The Fund uses historical information to generate the estimated character reflected in this notice. Until the Fund receives information as to the character of distributions it has received from these companies - generally around January 31 of the following year - it cannot provide a definitive characterization of the source of distributions paid to shareholders.

The Fund invests in certain companies that have been designated as "passive foreign investment companies" ("PFICs") for purposes of U.S. tax regulations. Increases in the value of these PFICs ("PFIC Income") increase the income of the Fund. PFIC Income does not reflect dividends or other income actually received by the Fund, although it does serve to increase the Net Investment Income the Fund is required to distribute. Distributions of PFIC Income may result in a Return of Capital. The amount of Net Investment Income described in the foregoing table (Estimated Source of Distributions) may include PFIC Income. Decreases in the value of these PFICs ("PFIC Losses") offset the other investment income of the Fund. PFIC Losses do not reflect a diminution in the amount of dividends or income actually received by the Fund, although they do serve to reduce the Net Investment Income the Fund is required to distribute. The amount of Net Investment Income in the foregoing table (Estimated Source of Distributions) may have been reduced by PFIC Losses.

The Fund estimates that it has distributed more than its income and capital gains; therefore, a portion of your distribution may be a return of capital. A return of capital may occur, for example, when some or all of the money that you invested in the Fund is paid back to you. A return of capital distribution does not necessarily reflect the Fund's investment performance and should not be confused with "yield" or "income".

Shareholders should not draw any conclusions about the Fund's investment performance from the amount of this distribution or from the terms of the Fund's managed distribution policy.Please note that all performance figures below are based on the Fund's net asset value ("NAV") and not the market price of the Fund's shares.Performance figures are not meant to represent individual shareholder performance.The value of a shareholder's investment in the Fund is determined by the market price of the Fund's shares.

The Fund's cumulative year-to-date total return for fiscal year 2013 (January 1, 2013 through May 31, 2013) is set forth below. Shareholders should take note of the relationship between the Year-to-date Cumulative Total Return on NAV and the Fund's Cumulative Distribution Rate for 2013, as well as its Current Annualized Distribution Rate. Moreover, the Fund's Average Annual Total Return (in relation to its NAV) for the preceding five-year period (June 1, 2008 through May 31, 2013) is set forth below. Shareholders should take note of the relationship between the Fund's Average Annual Total Return on NAV for the preceding five-year period and the Fund's Average Annual Distribution Rate for the preceding five-year period. The performance and distribution rate information disclosed in the table below is based on the Fund's net asset value (NAV).
