CALAMOS GLOBAL DYNAMIC INCOME FUND
SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT
This Agreement made June 13, 2007 by and between Calamos Global Dynamic
Income Fund, a Delaware statutory trust (the "Fund"), and Calamos Advisors LLC,
a Delaware limited liability company (the "Subscriber");
WITNESSETH:
WHEREAS, the Fund has been formed for the purposes of carrying on business
as a closed-end diversified management investment company;
WHEREAS, the Subscriber has been selected by the Fund's Board of Trustees
to serve as investment adviser to the Fund; and
WHEREAS, the Subscriber wishes to subscribe for and purchase, and the Fund
wishes to sell to the Subscriber, 6,992 common shares for a purchase price of
$14.302 per share.
NOW THEREFORE, IT IS AGREED:
1. The Subscriber subscribes for and agrees to purchase from the Fund
6,992 common shares for a purchase price of $14.302 per share. Subscriber agrees
to make payment for these shares at such time as demand for payment may be made
by an officer of the Fund.
2. The Fund agrees to issue and sell said shares to Subscriber promptly
upon its receipt of the purchase price.
3. To induce the Fund to accept its subscription and issue the shares
subscribed for, the Subscriber represents that it is informed as follows:
(a) That the shares being subscribed for have not been and will
not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933 ("Securities Act");
(b) That the shares will be sold by the Fund in reliance on an
exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act;
(c) That the Fund's reliance upon an exemption from the
registration requirements of the Securities Act is predicated in part on
the representation and agreements contained in this Subscription
Agreement;
(d) That when issued, the shares will be "restricted securities"
as defined in paragraph (a)(3) of Rule 144 of the General Rules and
Regulations under the Securities Act ("Rule 144") and cannot be sold or
transferred by Subscriber unless they are subsequently registered under
the Securities Act or unless an exemption from such registration is
available; and
1
(e) That there do not appear to be any exemptions from the
registration provisions of the Securities Act available to the Subscriber
for resale for the shares. In the future, certain exemptions may possibly
become available, including an exemption for limited sales including an
exemption for limited sales in accordance with the conditions of Rule 144.
The Subscriber understands that a primary purpose of the information
acknowledged in subparagraphs (a) through (e) above is to put it on notice as to
restrictions on the transferability of the shares.
4. To further induce the Fund to accept its subscription and issue the
shares subscribed for, the Subscriber:
(a) Represents and warrants that the shares subscribed for are
being and will be acquired for investment for its own account and not on
behalf of any other person or persons and not with a view to, or for sale
in connection with, any public distribution thereof;
(b) Agrees that any certificates representing the shares
subscribed for may bear a legend substantially in the following form:
The shares represented by this certificate have been acquired for
investment and have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933
or any other federal or state securities law. These shares may not be
offered for sale, sold or otherwise transferred unless registered under
said securities laws or unless some exemption from registration is
available.
(c) Consents, as the sole holder of the Trust's common shares of
beneficial interest and pursuant to Section 23(b)(2) of the Investment
Company Act of 1940, to the issuance by the Trust of common shares of
beneficial interest at a price per share as set forth in the Purchase
Agreement relating to the public offering of Shares; and
