Saba reaches agreement with The New America High Income Fund

Friday, August 09, 2024
Opalesque Industry Update - Saba Capital Management, L.P., has entered into a standstill agreement with The New America High Income Fund.

Under the terms of the agreement, The New America High Income Fund will, subject to stockholder approval, reorganize with and into the T. Rowe Price High Yield Fund, Inc., an open-end management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940.

The terms of the agreement also provide for Saba withdrawing the notice of its intent to nominate persons for election at the Fund's 2024 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.

Paul Kazarian, Partner and Portfolio Manager of Saba, commented: "Saba is pleased to have reached this agreement through constructive engagement with the Fund's board. We believe stockholders would benefit from the proposed reorganization contemplated by the agreement, as it would eliminate the Fund's trading discount and lower management fees for stockholders."
