Citadel Income Fund Sets Meeting Date

Article content

TORONTO, May 05, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Citadel Income Fund (TSX – CTF.UN) (the “Fund”) announced today that the trustee of the Fund, Artemis Investment Management Limited (“Artemis”), has called a meeting of unitholders (the “Meeting”), to be held on September 11, 2023, in response to a third unitholder requisition (the “Requisition”) submitted by Saba Capital Management, L.P. (“Saba”). Saba had previously submitted two requisitions, each of which the Fund determined were invalid as they failed to comply with the Fund’s declaration of trust (the “Declaration of Trust”) and applicable law.

Article content

In connection with the Requisition, Saba has also requested that Artemis unilaterally waive the provisions in the Declaration of Trust that prohibited Saba and its “Connected Parties” (as defined in the Declaration of Trust) from voting on the matters of business to be considered at the Meeting. However, those provisions were approved by Unitholders at a meeting of Unitholders held on August 7, 2012, prior to Artemis serving as trustee and manager of the Fund, for the purpose of protecting minority Unitholders.

Article content

The Fund will provide further information on the Meeting in due course and Unitholders are not required to take any action at this time.

Despite the unnecessary time and money that Saba’s action will require, the Fund remains committed to acting in the best interest of all Unitholders and continues to welcome constructive recommendations for strategies that have the potential to create value.

Advisors

The Fund has retained Kingsdale Advisors as its strategic Unitholder and communications advisor and Norton Rose Fulbright Canada LLP as its legal advisors.
