NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO UNITED STATES NEWSWIRE SERVICES OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES

LOGiQ Asset Management Ltd., the manager (the "Manager") of Voya Floating Rate Senior Loan Fund is pleased to announce that the previously announced merger (the "Merger") of Voya High Income Floating Rate Fund (the "Terminating Fund") and Voya Floating Rate Senior Loan Fund, resulting in Voya Floating Rate Senior Loan Fund (the "Continuing Fund") being the continuing fund, as contemplated in the management information circular dated March 28, 2017, was completed on July 21, 2017.

Pursuant to the Merger, each Class A unitholder of the Terminating Fund received 0.85720 Class A units of the Continuing Fund for each Class A unit held and each Class U unitholder of the Terminating Fund received 0.96336 Class U units of the Continuing Fund for each Class U unit held. A total of 2,014,901 Class A units and 123,454 Class U units were issued by the Continuing Fund in connection with the Merger. The exchange ratios for the units were calculated based on the relative net asset value of the units of the Continuing Fund and of the Terminating Fund as at the close of trading on July 20, 2017. Fractional units of the Continuing Fund will not be issued and all resulting fractional interests were rounded down to the nearest whole number.

The Continuing Fund has acquired substantially all of the assets and assumed all of the liabilities of the Terminating Fund. The Continuing Fund previously gained exposure to a portfolio held by ISL Loan Trust. Prior to the Merger, the Manager also terminated ISL Loan Trust as of the close of business on July 18, 2017 so that the portfolio is now held directly by the Continuing Fund.

The Class A Units of the Continuing Fund are listed on the TSX under the symbol ISL.UN. The Class U Units of the Continuing Fund are listed on the TSX under the symbol ISL.U.
