The Fund today announced the commencement of a tender offer (“Tender Offer”) that will begin on January 7, 2025, and expire at 5 p.m. (Eastern) on February 6, 2025 (the “Expiration Date”), which will also be the pricing date, unless the Tender Offer is extended. The Tender Offer was previously announced as a conditional tender offer subject to certain factors that have been determined to have been met.
The Fund intends to acquire up to 10% of its outstanding shares in exchange for cash at a price equal to 98% of the Fund’s net asset value (net of expenses related to the Tender Offer) as of the close of regular trading on the Expiration Date. If more than 10% of the Fund’s then outstanding shares are tendered, the Fund intends to purchase shares from all tendering shareholders on a pro rata basis, based on the number of shares tendered by each shareholder.
