NEW YORK , June 23, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- This press release
provides shareholders of Cohen & Steers Limited Duration Preferred and Income Fund, Inc. (NYSE: LDP) (the "Fund")
with information regarding the sources of the distribution to be paid on June 30, 2017 and
cumulative distributions paid fiscal year-to-date.
In December 2016, the Fund implemented a managed distribution policy in accordance with
exemptive relief issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission. The managed distribution policy seeks to deliver the Fund's
long-term total return potential through regular monthly distributions declared at a fixed rate per common share. The policy
gives the Fund greater flexibility to realize long-term capital gains throughout the year and to distribute those gains on a
regular monthly basis to shareholders. The Board of Directors of the Fund may amend, terminate or suspend the managed
distribution policy at any time, which could have an adverse effect on the market price of the Fund's shares.
The Fund's monthly distributions may include long-term capital gains, short-term capital gains, net investment income and/or
return of capital for federal income tax purposes. Return of capital includes distributions paid by the Fund in excess of its net
investment income and net realized capital gains and such excess is distributed from the Fund's assets. A return of capital is
not taxable; rather, it reduces a shareholder's tax basis in his or her shares of the Fund. The amount of monthly distributions
may vary depending on a number of factors, including changes in portfolio and market conditions.
At the time of each monthly distribution, information will be posted to cohenandsteers.com and mailed to shareholders in a
concurrent notice. However, this information may change at the end of the year because the final tax characteristics of the
Fund's distributions cannot be determined with certainty until after the end of the calendar year. Final tax characteristics of
all of the Fund's distributions will be provided on Form 1099-DIV, which is mailed after the close of the calendar year.
The following table sets forth the estimated amounts of the current distribution and the cumulative distributions paid this
fiscal year-to-date from the sources indicated. All amounts are expressed per common share.

You should not draw any conclusions about the Fund's investment performance from the amount of this distribution or
from the terms of the Fund's managed distribution policy. The amounts and sources of distributions reported in this Notice are
only estimates, are likely to change over time, and are not being provided for tax reporting purposes. The actual amounts and
sources of the amounts for accounting and tax reporting purposes will depend upon the Fund's investment experience during the
remainder of its fiscal year and may be subject to changes based on tax regulations. The amounts and sources of distributions
year-to-date may be subject to additional adjustments.
* THE FUND WILL SEND YOU A FORM 1099-DIV FOR THE CALENDAR YEAR THAT WILL TELL YOU HOW TO REPORT
THESE DISTRIBUTIONS FOR FEDERAL INCOME TAX PURPOSES
The Fund's Year-to-date Cumulative Total Return for fiscal year 2017 (January 1, 2017 through
May 31, 2017) is set forth below. Shareholders should take note of the relationship between the
Year-to-date Cumulative Total Return with the Fund's Cumulative Distribution Rate for 2017. In addition, the Fund's Average
Annual Total Return for the since-inception period beginning on the Fund's July 27, 2012 inception
and ending May 31, 2017 is set forth below. Shareholders should note the relationship between the
Average Annual Total Return with the Fund's Current Annualized Distribution Rate for 2017. The performance and distribution rate
information disclosed in the table is based on the Fund's net asset value per share (NAV). The Fund's NAV is calculated as the
total market value of all the securities and other assets held by the Fund minus the total liabilities, divided by the total
number of shares outstanding. While NAV performance may be indicative of the Fund's investment performance, it does not measure
the value of a shareholder's individual investment in the Fund. The value of a shareholder's investment in the Fund is determined
by the Fund's market price, which is based on the supply and demand for the Fund's shares in the open market.
