IGR's current annualized distribution rate is 13.7% based on the closing market price of $5.25 on July 8, 2025, and 14.5 % based on a closing NAV of $4.97 as of the same date.

Future earnings of the Trust cannot be guaranteed, and the Trust's distribution policy is subject to change. For more information on the Trust, please visit www.cbreim.com/igr.

The Trust's monthly distribution is set by its Board of Trustees. The Board reviews the Trust's distribution on a quarterly basis in view of the investment management team's market outlook as well as the net investment income, realized and unrealized gains, and other net unrealized appreciation or income potential. The Trust strives to establish a level monthly distribution that will serve to distribute an amount closely approximating the Trust's net investment income and net realized capital gains over time.

The Trust, acting in accordance with an exemptive order received from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), utilizes a managed distribution policy under which the Trust's regular monthly distribution may include both income and, where applicable, realized capital gains. If the Trust's total distributions for a period exceed the total amount of net income and net capital gains realized by the Trust, the excess will generally be a return of capital.

Dividends from net investment income, if any, are declared quarterly and paid monthly. Dividends and other distributions to common shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. A portion of distributions for a period may be a return of capital if the amount of the distributions paid for the period exceeds the net investment income and net realized capital gains for the period. The Trust may offset realized capital gains with realized capital losses and capital loss carryforwards rather than distribute such gains.

The Board continues to regularly review the level of the Trust's distribution and the ability to sustain it.

CBRE 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 period from January 1, 2025, to September 30, 2025, the Trust has made or declared nine (9) regular monthly distributions totaling $0.54 per share. The sources of the distribution declared for each month and the full period from January 1, 2025, to September 30, 2025, are estimated as follows:

The allocations reported in this notice are only estimates and are not provided for tax reporting purposes. The actual allocations will depend on the Trust's investment experience during the remainder of its fiscal year and will not be finalized until after year-end. In addition, the allocations reported to shareholders for tax reporting purposes will also reflect adjustments required under applicable tax regulations. Some of these tax adjustments are significant, and amounts reported to you for tax reporting may be substantially different than those presented in this notice. SHAREHOLDERS WILL BE SENT A FORM 1099-DIV FOR THE CALENDAR YEAR INDICATING HOW TO REPORT TRUST DISTRIBUTIONS FOR FEDERAL INCOME TAX PURPOSES.

The estimated allocations presented above are based on the Trust's monthly calculation of its year-to-date net investment income, capital gains and returns of capital. The Trust's investment income is mainly comprised of distributions received from the real estate investment trusts ("REITs") and other companies in which it invests. "Net investment income" refers to the Trust's investment income offset by its expenditures, which include the fees paid to the investment adviser and other service providers. "Net realized capital gains" represents the aggregation of the capital gains and losses realized by the Trust from its purchase and sale of investment securities during the year-to-date period. Short-term capital gains are those arising from the sale of securities held by the Trust for less than one year. Long-term capital gains are those arising from the sale of securities held by the Trust for a year or more. The amount of net realized capital gains may also be offset by capital losses realized in prior years. Adjustments to net investment income are made based on the character of distributions received by the Trust. A portion of the distributions the Trust receives from REITs will be characterized by the REITs as capital gains or returns of capital. Because REITs often reclassify the distributions they make, the Trust does not know the ultimate character of these distributions at the time they are received, so the Trust estimates the character based on historical information. The Trust's net investment income is reduced by the amounts characterized by the REITs as capital gains and returns of capital. Amounts characterized by the REITs as capital gains are added to the Trust's net realized capital gains. Amounts characterized by the REITs as return of capital are classified as such by the Trust.

The Trust estimates that it has distributed more than its net investment income and net realized 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 the money that you invested in the Trust is paid back to you. A return of capital distribution does not necessarily reflect the Trust's investment performance and should not be confused with "yield" or "income".

Shareholders should not draw any conclusions about the Trust's investment performance from the amount of this distribution or from the terms of the Trust's managed distribution policy. The performance and distribution rate information disclosed in the table below is based on the Trust's net asset value ("NAV"). The Trust's NAV is calculated as the total market value of all the securities and other assets held by the Trust minus the total value of its liabilities. Performance figures are not meant to represent individual shareholder performance. The value of a shareholder's investment in the Trust is determined by the market price of the Trust's shares.

The Trust's Cumulative Total Return for fiscal year 2025 (January 1, 2025 through June 30, 2025) is set forth below. Shareholders should take note of the relationship between the Cumulative Total Return and the Trust's Cumulative Distribution Rate for 2025, as well as its Current Annualized Distribution Rate. Moreover, the Trust's Average Annual Total Return for the preceding five-year period (July 1, 2020 through June 30, 2025) is set forth below. Shareholders should take note of the relationship between the Trust's Average Annual Total Return and its Average Annual Distribution Rate for the preceding five-year period.

     reinvestment of those distributions. 
2    Cumulative Distribution Rate for fiscal year-to-date 2025 (January 1, 
     2025 through June 30, 2025) is determined by dividing the dollar value of 
     distributions in the period by the Trust's NAV as of June 30, 2025.

     Distribution Rates are calculated by taking the total distributions paid

     distribution rate annualized as a percentage of the Trust's NAV as of
