(RNP) Notification of Sources of Distribution Under Section 19(a)\n\nPR Newswire\n\nNEW YORK, June 29, 2026\n\nNEW YORK, June 29, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- This press release provides\nshareholders of Cohen & Steers REIT and Preferred and Income Fund, Inc.\n(NYSE: RNP) (the \"Fund\") with information regarding the sources of the\ndistribution to be paid on June 30, 2026 and cumulative distributions paid\nfiscal year-to-date.\n\nIn December 2017, the Fund implemented a managed distribution policy in\naccordance with exemptive relief issued by the Securities and Exchange\nCommission. The managed distribution policy seeks to deliver the Fund's\nlong-term total return potential through regular monthly distributions\ndeclared at a fixed rate per common share. The policy gives the Fund greater\nflexibility to realize long-term capital gains throughout the year and to\ndistribute those gains on a regular monthly basis to shareholders. The Board\nof Directors of the Fund may amend, terminate or suspend the managed\ndistribution policy at any time, which could have an adverse effect on the\nmarket price of the Fund's shares.\n\nThe Fund's monthly distributions may include long-term capital gains,\nshort-term capital gains, net investment income and/or return of capital for\nfederal income tax purposes. Return of capital includes distributions paid by\nthe Fund in excess of its net investment income and net realized capital gains\nand such excess is distributed from the Fund's assets. A return of capital is\nnot taxable; rather, it reduces a shareholder's tax basis in his or her shares\nof the Fund. In addition, distributions from the Fund's investments in real\nestate investment trusts (REITs) may later be characterized as capital gains\nand/or a return of capital, depending on the character of the dividends\nreported to the Fund after year-end by REITs held by the Fund. The amount of\nmonthly distributions may vary depending on a number of factors, including\nchanges in portfolio and market conditions.\n\nAt the time of each monthly distribution, information will be posted to\ncohenandsteers.com and mailed to shareholders in a concurrent notice. However,\nthis information may change at the end of the year because the final tax\ncharacteristics of the Fund's distributions cannot be determined with\ncertainty until after the end of the calendar year. Final tax characteristics\nof all of the Fund's distributions will be provided on Form 1099-DIV, which is\nmailed after the close of the calendar year.\n\nThe following table sets forth the estimated amounts of the current\ndistribution and the cumulative distributions paid this fiscal year-to-date\nfrom the sources indicated. All amounts are expressed per common share.\n DISTRIBUTION ESTIMATES                       June 2026                  YEAR-TO-DATE (YTD)\n\nJune 30, 2026*\n Source                                       Per Share   % of Current   Per Share   % of 2026\n                                              Amount      Distribution   Amount      Distributions\n Net Investment Income                        $0.0614     45.15 %        $0.4640     56.86 %\n Net Realized Short-Term Capital Gains        $0.0111     8.16 %         $0.0497     6.09 %\n Net Realized Long-Term Capital Gains         $0.0635     46.69 %        $0.2982     36.54 %\n Return of Capital (or other Capital Source)  $0.0000     0.00 %         $0.0041     0.51 %\n Total Current Distribution                   $0.1360     100.00 %       $0.8160     100.00 %\n\nYou should not draw any conclusions about the Fund's investment performance\nfrom the amount of this distribution or from the terms of the Fund's managed\ndistribution policy. The Fund estimates that it has distributed more than its\nincome and capital gains; therefore, a portion of your distribution may be a\nreturn of capital. A return of capital may occur, for example, when some or\nall of the money that you invested in the Fund is paid back to you. A return\nof capital distribution does not necessarily reflect the Fund's investment\nperformance and should not be confused with 'yield' or 'income'. The amounts\nand sources of distributions reported in this Notice are only estimates, are\nlikely to change over time, and are not being provided for tax reporting\npurposes. The actual amounts and sources of the amounts for accounting and tax\nreporting purposes will depend upon the Fund's investment experience during\nthe remainder of its fiscal year and may be subject to changes based on tax\nregulations.
