Advent/Claymore Global Convertible Securities & Income Fund (NYSE: AGC)
and Advent/Claymore Enhanced Growth & Income Fund (NYSE:LCM)
announce the declaration of new regular distribution amounts to be paid
in February.
The new regular monthly distribution for AGC
will be $0.047 per share. This new monthly distribution compares to
$0.0664 per share for the Fund's most recent distribution. The new
regular quarterly distribution for LCM
will be $0.210 per share. This new quarterly distribution compares to
$0.264 per share for the Fund's most recent distribution. The
modifications were made in an effort to more closely align the earnings
potential of the Funds' investments with the distribution rates of each
Fund while also seeking to provide investors with greater long-term
total return potential. Lower interest rates in U.S. Treasuries, high
yield, investment grade and convertible securities have also influenced
this decision.
The February 2012 distribution will be paid on February 29, 2012 to
shareholders of record as of February 15, 2012 with an ex-dividend date
of February 13, 2012. For additional commentary, news, portfolio
holdings and other regularly updated information, please visit www.guggenheimfunds.com/CEF.

is determined that a notification is required, pursuant to Section 19(a)
of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, such notice will be
posted to such Fund's website after the close of business three business
days prior to the payable date. Distributions may be comprised of
sources other than income, which may not reflect actual Fund performance.
