Exhibit 99.1

Termination Proposal Sent to the Fund on May 7, 2018

BE IT RESOLVED, that the Investment Advisory Agreement between the Madison Strategic Sector Premium Fund ("MSP" or the "Fund") and Madison Asset Management, LLC ("MAM" or the "Adviser") shall be terminated.

Supporting Statement

MAM has been the Fund's Adviser since inception. In a closed-end fund, an investment adviser's job is to manage a Fund's assets, which is reflected in a Fund's net asset value ("NAV") performance. This is often confused by investors with price performance - or the performance an investor would have received based on market price.

The reason this is so critical to differentiate is because price performance can be impacted greatly by market sentiment, actions taken by the Board (here a proposed merger), or anticipated actions by activist investors which tends to move a fund's market price significantly more than it otherwise would have. With all of this said, with poor NAV performance relative to their stated benchmark, somehow MAM managed to convince enough shareholders last year that they should continue to manage MSP's assets. The key question is how.

Although it wasn't disclosed whether the Fund analyzed price or NAV performance, we believe that it is pretty apparent that the Fund must have been looking at price. In fact, according to total return data from Bloomberg Finance, L.P., when one compares MSP's NAV performance versus the stated benchmark, the CBOE S&P 500 Buy-Write Index (the "BXM Index"), we believe that performance can in no way be deemed acceptable.

In 2017, the Board qualified performance as "strong" and most recently they have shifted to performance being "satisfactory" according to the Fund's most recent annual statement. Based on the data below comparing the Fund's NAV performance over multiple measurement periods, we wonder if more appropriate adjectives would be "poor" or "underperforming."

	1 Yr.	3 Yrs.	5 Yrs.	10 Yrs.	Inception (4/26/05-3/31/18)
MSP NAV Total Return	1.98%	3.52%	5.91%	5.17%	4.78%
BXM Index Total Return	6.95%	7.22%	7.42%	5.09%	5.57%
Under/Over Performance	-4.97%	-3.70%	-1.51%	0.08%	-0.79%

Source: Bloomberg Finance, L.P. Monthly total return characteristics through 3/31/2018. All periods greater than 1 year are annualized.

Adding fuel to the fire, shareholders of the Fund also continue to face limited liquidity for this underperformance despite being formally asked TWICEby shareholders to take a specific action or set of actions at the Fund's 2016 & 2017 Annual shareholder meetings.

The Fund is likely to come up with a litany of arguments against our proposal. However, don't be distracted from the facts. A fund's adviser is responsible for attractive NAV performance. Madison Asset Management, LLC is the Fund's adviser and they have repeatedly underperformed in their key task.

It is clear that the time for change is NOW! If you agree and believe the Fund should terminate its Investment Advisory Agreement with Madison Asset Management, LLC, please vote FOR this Proposal. If approved, the Board cannot choose whether to implement this Proposal.

END OF PROPOSAL

Exhibit 99.2

WHEREAS, certain of the undersigned are stockholders, direct or beneficial, of Madison Strategic Sector Premium Fund, a Delaware statutory trust (the "Company");
