                    THE GABELLI GLOBAL UTILITY & INCOME TRUST
                  NOTES TO SCHEDULE OF INVESTMENTS (UNAUDITED)

SECURITY  VALUATION.  Portfolio  securities  listed or  traded  on a  nationally
recognized securities exchange or traded in the U.S. over-the-counter market for
which market quotations are readily available are valued at the last quoted sale
price or a market's  official  closing  price as of the close of business on the
day the  securities  are being  valued.  If there  were no sales  that day,  the
security is valued at the  average of the  closing  bid and asked  prices or, if
there were no asked  prices  quoted on that day,  then the security is valued at
the closing bid price on that day. If no bid or asked  prices are quoted on such
day,  the  security is valued at the most  recently  available  price or, if the
Board of Trustees (the "Board") so determines, by such other method as the Board
shall  determine  in good  faith to reflect  its fair  market  value.  Portfolio
securities  traded on more than one national  securities  exchange or market are
valued according to the broadest and most  representative  market, as determined
by the Gabelli Funds, LLC.

Portfolio  securities  primarily traded on a foreign market are generally valued
at the preceding  closing values of such securities on the relevant market,  but
may be fair valued  pursuant to  procedures  established  by the Board if market
conditions change  significantly after the close of the foreign market but prior
to the  close of  business  on the day the  securities  are being  valued.  Debt
instruments  with  remaining  maturities  of 60 days or less that are not credit
impaired are valued at amortized cost,  unless the Board  determines such amount
does not reflect the securities' fair value, in which case these securities will
be fair valued as determined by the Board.  Debt  instruments  having a maturity
greater  than 60 days for which  market  quotations  are readily  available  are
valued at the average of the latest bid and asked prices. If there were no asked
prices quoted on such day, the security is valued using the closing bid price.

Securities and assets for which market  quotations are not readily available are
fair valued as determined by the Board.

ITEM 2. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

     (a)  The registrant's principal executive and principal financial officers,
          or persons  performing  similar  functions,  have  concluded  that the
          registrant's  disclosure  controls and  procedures (as defined in Rule
          30a-3(c)  under the  Investment  Company Act of 1940,  as amended (the
          "1940 Act") (17 CFR 270.30a-3(c))) are effective,  as of a date within
          90 days of the filing date of the report that includes the  disclosure
          required  by this  paragraph,  based  on  their  evaluation  of  these
          controls and  procedures  required by Rule 30a-3(b) under the 1940 Act
          (17 CFR  270.30a-3(b))  and Rules  13a-15(b)  or  15d-15(b)  under the
          Securities  Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (17 CFR  240.13a-15(b) or
          240.15d-15(b)).

     (b)  There  were no  changes  in the  registrant's  internal  control  over
          financial  reporting (as defined in Rule  30a-3(d)  under the 1940 Act
          (17 CFR  270.30a-3(d))  that  occurred  during the  registrant's  last
          fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely
          to materially affect, the registrant's internal control over financial
          reporting.
