The Gabelli Global Multimedia Trust Inc. is pleased to announce the completion of its 2000
Rights Offering whereby holders of three Rights were entitled to purchase one newly issued
common share of The Gabelli Global Multimedia Trust at $13.00 per share.
Preliminary results indicate that the Trust received subscriptions for nearly twice the

of the Primary shares were subscribed for as well. Details of shares available for the
Over-Subscription Privilege are not yet available. Shares subscribed for in the
Over-Subscription Privilege will be allocated on a pro rata basis in the manner described in
the Trust's prospectus for the Rights Offering.
We would like to thank all the full service brokers who participated without receiving
commission and all of our shareholders.
The Gabelli Global Multimedia Trust Inc. is a closed-end, non-diversified management investment
company with $235 million in total assets whose primary investment objective is long-term growth
