Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.
Amended and Restated By-Laws. On March 7, 2011, the Board of Trustees of Guggenheim Enhanced Equity Income Fund (the “Fund”) amended and restated in its entirety the By-Laws of the Fund (the “Amended and Restated By-Laws”). The Amended and Restated By-Laws are attached hereto as Exhibit 3.1 and are incorporated herein by reference.
Resignation and Appointment of Trustees. In connection with the ongoing realignment of the boards of trustees of various funds advised by Guggenheim Funds Investment Advisors, LLC, on March 7, 2011, Messrs. Steven D. Cosler, Robert M. Hamje and L. Kent Moore tendered their resignation as Trustees of the Fund. The Board of Trustees accepted their resignations and thanked them each for their service to the Fund. In connection with such resignations, the Board of Trustees reduced the size of the Board of Trustees to five trustees. The Board appointed Roman Friedrich III effective immediately to fill a vacancy as a Class II Trustee and nominated Robert B. Karn III to stand for election at this year’s annual meeting of shareholders to fill a vacancy as a Class III Trustee. Messrs. Friedrich and Karn serve as trustees of several other funds within the Guggenheim Funds fund complex and the Board of Trustees believes that the alignment of the Board with the boards of other funds within the Guggenheim Funds fund complex may lead to cost savings and efficiencies in fund governance.
