Dividend and Income Fund Announces Results of Rights Offering
(firmenpresse) - NEW YORK, NY -- (Marketwired) -- 09/30/13 -- (NYSE: DNI) (NAV: XDNIX) (the "Fund") is pleased to announce today the results of its non-transferable rights offering, which expired on September 27, 2013. The subscription price was determined to be $13.62, based on a formula equal to 95% of the lower of (a) the Fund's NAV per share or (b) the market price per share. For this purpose, the NAV per share was $17.67, determined as of the expiration date and the market price per share was $14.34, the average of the volume weighted average sales price of a share on the NYSE on the expiration date and the four preceding trading days.
The offering was over-subscribed. Because sufficient primary subscription shares were not available to honor all over-subscription requests, pursuant to the offering prospectus and at the discretion of its Board of Trustees, the Fund increased the number of shares subject to subscription by 25% of the primary subscription shares to cover such over-subscription requests. The available shares were allocated pro rata among those who over-subscribed based on the number of shares owned by them on the record date.
Shares will be issued promptly after completion of shareholder payments and the pro rata allocation of shares in respect of the over-subscription privilege.
The Fund is a diversified, closed end investment company. The Fund's primary investment objective is to seek high current income. Capital appreciation is a secondary objective. Bexil Advisers LLC is the Fund's investment manager.
