The proposed merger is intended to provide potential benefits to
shareholders, including enhanced investment opportunities, improved
liquidity, and certain efficiencies, among other things.
The merger is subject to approval by the shareholders of the
Acquired Fund. FMO expects to submit proposals to shareholders for
approval at an upcoming Special Meeting of Shareholders expected to
be held in the first quarter of 2022.
Basic terms of the proposed merger, subject to shareholder
approval, include:
- The outstanding common stock of FMO
will be exchanged for newly-issued common stock of KYN. The
aggregate NAV of common stock of KYN received by FMO shareholders
in the merger will equal the aggregate NAV of common stock of FMO
shares held by such shareholders immediately prior to the merger.
FMO shareholders may receive cash for their fractional common
shares.
- The investment objective of KYN is
to provide a high after-tax total return with an emphasis on making
cash distributions to stockholders. As the surviving fund, the
investment objective of KYN will remain unchanged.
The Acquiring Fund plans to file with the U.S. Securities and
Exchange Commission (“SEC”) a registration statement/proxy
statement on Form N-14 that will be provided to shareholders as of
the record date for the meeting. When available, the registration
statement/proxy statement and proxy statement will describe in
detail the terms of the proposed merger and the proposals being
submitted to shareholders, as applicable. When finalized,
shareholders are encouraged to review the registration
statement/proxy statement and proxy statement on the SEC website at
www.sec.gov.
The investment adviser to FMO is Guggenheim Funds Investment
Advisors, LLC. The investment adviser to KYN is KA Fund Advisors,
LLC.
It is currently anticipated that the merger will be completed in
the first quarter of 2022, subject to required shareholder
approvals and the satisfaction of applicable regulatory
requirements and other customary closing conditions.
