Advent/Claymore Enhanced Growth & Income Fund Announces Update to Potential Tender Offer
12 Mayo 2017 - 4:00PM
Advent/Claymore Enhanced Growth & Income Fund (NYSE:LCM) (the
“Fund”) announced today that the Fund’s Board of Trustees has
approved a modification to the Fund’s previously announced
potential tender offer (the “Tender Offer”) for up to 32.5% of the
Fund’s outstanding common shares of beneficial interest (the
“Shares”) at a price per Share equal to 98% of the Fund’s net asset
value (“NAV”) as of the business day immediately following the
expiration of the Tender Offer.
Under the modified terms, the Fund will repurchase
Shares tendered and accepted in the Tender Offer in exchange for
cash, instead of in exchange for a pro rata portion of the Fund’s
portfolio securities. It is anticipated that the Tender Offer will
commence as soon as commercially practicable, but no later than
June 16, 2017. The Board of Trustees of the Fund believes the
Tender Offer could benefit participating shareholders by providing
liquidity at a price per Share that is higher than the then current
market price of the Shares. The Board of Trustees believes the
Tender Offer could also benefit the Fund and its long-term
shareholders because the Tender Offer would be conducted at a price
per Share that would be accretive to NAV.
The commencement of the potential Tender Offer is
pursuant to standstill agreements with certain holders of Shares,
which agreements have been amended to reflect the modified terms
described herein.
The above statements are not intended to constitute
an offer to participate in any tender offer. Information about the
tender offer, including its commencement, will be announced via
future press releases. Shareholders will be notified in accordance
with the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended, and the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, either
by publication or mailing or both. A tender offer will be made only
by an Offer to Purchase, a related Letter of Transmittal and other
documents, to be filed with the SEC. Shareholders of the Fund
should read the Offer to Purchase and tender offer statement and
related exhibits when those documents are filed and become
available, as they will contain important information about the
tender offer. These and other filed documents will be available to
investors for free both at the website of the SEC and from the
Fund.
