Global Income Fund Declares Quarterly Dividend.

NEW YORK -- A quarterly dividend distribution of $.07 per share for the quarter ending December 31, 2005 was declared today by Global Income Fund, Inc. (AMEX: GIF), payable December 31, 2005 to shareholders of record December 15, 2005.

The $.07 per share quarterly dividend distribution reflects a managed distribution policy of the Fund. The policy is intended to provide shareholders with a relatively stable cash flow and reduce or eliminate the Fund's market price discount to its net asset value per share. The amount of the distribution may vary depending on the net asset value per share at the time of declaration and the policy may be changed or discontinued without notice.

Under the managed distribution policy, distributions of approximately 6% of the Fund's net asset value per share on an annual basis are paid primarily from ordinary income and any net capital gains, with the balance representing return of capital. Based on information available at this time, the Fund estimates that for the current fiscal year the source of the regular quarterly aggregate distributions of $0.28 per share are approximately 68%, 0%, and 32% from ordinary income, capital gains, and return of capital, respectively. This is only an estimate and is subject to change. Actual amounts may be re-characterized for tax purposes after year end 2005. In January, shareholders receive information concerning the taxable status of the dividend distributions that were paid to shareholders of record in the 12 months ended December 31.

The primary investment objective of Global Income Fund, Inc. is to provide for its shareholders a high level of income, with capital appreciation as a secondary objective. The Fund pursues its investment objectives by investing primarily in a global portfolio of investment grade fixed income securities.
