The Programs are intended to enhance long-term shareholder value. However, even if a tender offer is triggered under a Program, there is no guarantee that shareholders will be able to sell all of the shares that they desire to sell in any particular tender offer and there can be no assurances as to the effect that a Program will have on the market for a Fund’s shares or the discount at which a Fund’s shares may trade relative to its NAV.
The adoption of the Programs is pursuant to an agreement (the “Agreement”) among each Fund, BlackRock Advisors, LLC and Karpus Investment Management (“Karpus”). During the effective period of the Agreement, for each Fund, Karpus has agreed to (1) be bound by the terms of the Agreement, including certain customary standstill covenants and (2) vote Fund shares on proposals submitted to shareholders in accordance with the recommendation of each Fund’s Board.
