What Every XFLT Shareholder Needs to Know for XFLT’s Proxy Contest

Fees Will 


NOT


Increase If Proposal Is Approved

Terminated Sub-Adviser Octagon’s “Proven Investment Team” Responsible for -54% NAV Erosion at XFLT and Seven CLO Defaults Across Its Own Portfolio

XFLT Asks Shareholders to Vote on the WHITE Proxy Card “FOR” the King Street Sub-Advisory Agreement at Special Meeting on July 30, 2026

CHICAGO, July 18, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — XA Investments LLC (“XAI”), manager of XAI Floating Rate & Alternative Income Trust (XFLT) (the “Fund”), responded to misleading claims regarding the approval of a new investment sub-advisory agreement among the Fund, XAI and Rockford Tower Asset Management, L.L.C. (the “King Street Sub-Adviser”), a wholly owned subsidiary of King Street Capital Management, L.P. (“King Street”) at the upcoming Special Meeting of Shareholders on July 30, 2026.

Terminated Sub-Adviser’s FALSE Claims The TRUTH
Octagon claims the approval of King Street as Sub-Adviser will increase the fees paid to XA Investments.

  • There will be NO increase in fees paid by shareholders.

    The Fund’s management fees and expenses will

    not

    increase, and shareholders will

    not

    pay any higher fees because of this change.
  • In fact, under the proposed agreement with the King Street Sub-Adviser, if the Fund recovers the abysmal -54% NAV erosion suffered under the terminated sub-adviser’s mismanagement, XA Investments will stand to earn less in fees than it would under the current arrangement.
Octagon claims it has a “better path forward” because it offered to take over your Fund as investment adviser and reduce the Fund’s advisory fee.

  • This proposal is


    not on the ballot
    . A vote against the King Street Sub-Advisory Agreement does not make the terminated sub-adviser the Fund’s adviser.
  • The terminated sub-adviser’s proposal was an attempt to take over as adviser of XFLT—a role it has not performed for any registered fund.
  • Octagon would be getting a promotion and a pay raise under this “better path.” Rewarding an underperforming manager with expanded responsibilities and higher fees would have been imprudent and contrary to the Board’s fiduciary duty to act in shareholders’ best interests.
Octagon implies that XA Investments and the Board are not aligned with shareholders.
  • The leadership team at XA Investments and the Fund Board all have material ownership of XFLT and are aligned with XFLT shareholders. Collectively, XA Investments’ management and the Fund Board own approximately 272,859 shares of XFLT.
  • The terminated sub-adviser is not aligned with shareholders, and Octagon senior leaders own far fewer shares of XFLT, including CEO and former XFLT Portfolio Manager Gretchen Lam.
  • Like every other shareholder, the leadership team at XA Investments shared in the value destruction that has occurred under Octagon’s watch.
Octagon’s claims its management of XFLT by a “proven management team” led to performance that was “admirable.”
  • The results tell a different story. The underperformance is far from “admirable.” As of March 31, 2026, XFLT underperformed its benchmark by
    -19.09% over the past one-year period, underperformed over the three-year, five-year and since-inception periods, and NAV per share declined approximately
    -54%, which implies $406.7 million of current-share-equivalent NAV erosion.
  • The results are why the Board acted. The Board had a fiduciary responsibility to protect shareholders from the terminated sub-adviser’s persistent underperformance at XFLT and commenced a search process to identify a qualified sub-adviser that could improve future shareholder outcomes.
  • Recent developments affirm that the Board was right to be concerned. In 2026 alone, Octagon’s own CLO portfolio has suffered seven CLO defaults in 2026 alone.
Octagon claims the Board did not conduct proper diligence in selecting the King Street Sub-Adviser.
  • The Board was unanimous in its conviction that XFLT would benefit from the expanded capabilities of the King Street Sub-Adviser.
  • The Board carefully evaluated King Street’s relevant private and institutional 30-year track record, its CLO and credit business, talent, investment resources, strategy fit and ability to manage XFLT dynamically within its existing mandate.
King Street’s performance, experience and capabilities are being distorted.
  • King Street is a leading global alternative asset manager with a 30-year track record, $30 billion in assets under management and a strong CLO platform that includes:

    • 20 U.S. CLOs
    • 9 European CLOs
    • Approximately $12 billion in CLO assets under management.
  • XA Investments and the Fund’s Board believe the King Street Sub-Adviser will be better positioned to improve performance, support stronger distributions over time and help unlock greater value for XFLT shareholders.
Octagon claims it has served as a close partner of the Fund since its IPO in 2017, and it has been responsible for the day-to-day management of the Fund’s portfolio for nearly a decade thereafter.
  • If Octagon wants credit for the day-to-day portfolio management of the Fund, it must also accept responsibility for the poor performance results.
  • As of March 31, 2026, the Fund had suffered -54% NAV erosion since inception and underperformed its benchmark by –19.09% over one year and –4.30% over three years. These results were key to the Board’s review, and the Board determined that terminating Octagon was warranted.
Octagon claims to have grown increasingly concerned that key decisions about the Fund were being made by a Board that was not fully informed, to the detriment of shareholders.
  • Nothing could be further from the truth. This statement reveals a fundamental and alarming misunderstanding of the sub-adviser role and proper fund governance.
  • Decisions that impact all shareholders call for careful judgement and decisive action by an independent board of trustees. And that is exactly what the Board did.
  • Shareholders do not benefit from second guessing by an underperforming sub-adviser.
Octagon believes the King Street Sub-Advisory Agreement represents a “significant change” to the Fund’s portfolio management without a justifiable benefit or explanation of the Board’s decision to replace the terminated sub-adviser.
  • The Board’s decision is well-founded and considered numerous factors, including XFLT’s ongoing underperformance and NAV erosion under the terminated sub-adviser.
  • Further, the Board carefully vetted King Street’s track record, management team and expanded investment capabilities, as described in the Fund’s shareholder proxy.


The Board urges XFLT shareholders to vote “FOR” on the WHITE Card. Use one of the following options to vote:

  • By Internet: Visit the website listed on your WHITE proxy card, enter your control number and follow the simple on-screen instructions.
  • By Phone: Call the toll-free number listed on your WHITE proxy card.
  • By Mail: Sign and return the enclosed WHITE proxy card in the enclosed postage-paid envelope.

Hawaiian Electric Seeks to Expand Renewables, Energy Storage on Oʻahu, Hawaiʻi Island and Maui

Hawaiian Electric Seeks to Expand Renewables, Energy Storage on Oʻahu, Hawaiʻi Island and Maui

– Represents significant progress toward 100% renewable energy

– One of state’s largest energy procurements ever

– Additional 500 MW of firm generation on O‘ahu to be sought

HONOLULU–(BUSINESS WIRE)–
Hawaiian Electric Company, Inc. (Hawaiian Electric), a subsidiary of Hawaiian Electric Industries, Inc. (HEI) (NYSE – HE), today submitted its Integrated Grid Planning Request for Proposals (IGP RFP), seeking plans for competitively priced renewable energy and storage for Oʻahu, Hawaiʻi Island and Maui to meet customers’ growing energy needs and modernize the generation fleet to drive down costs by reducing the use of oil for power generation.

Collectively, these projects comprise one of Hawaiian Electric’s largest-ever energy solicitations. When completed, these projects will make significant progress toward the state’s goal of using 100% renewable energy for power generation by 2045. Today is the deadline for submittal of the RFP solicitation as part of the company’s planning process overseen by the Public Utilities Commission (PUC).

“Hawai‘i needs to move faster and we think our expedited procurement plan is the best way to drive competition, evaluate all options and more rapidly build a portfolio that meets the requirements of efficiency, reliability and lower carbon emissions and does it at the least cost,” said Scott Seu, CEO of Hawaiian Electric. “This is one of the actions we’re taking that will benefit our customers and our state sooner, not on some faraway horizon.”

Hawaiian Electric is proposing four immediate action steps:

  • Retiring aging power plants sooner by accelerating the addition of modern firm generation that can efficiently produce electricity 24/7 when variable resources like wind and solar aren’t available.

  • Launching one of the largest generation resource procurements in state history in a competitive bidding process to seek nearly 1,650 gigawatt-hours (GWh) of variable renewable energy (i.e. solar, wind,) 465 megawatts (MW) of grid forming resources (i.e. solar generation plus battery storage) and 111 MW of firm generating capacity, resources that can be available 24/7. Projects would be in service between 2031-2034.

  • Seeking separate, expedited regulatory approval to expand the procurement for fuel-flexible firm generation resources on O‘ahu by up to an additional 500 MW. In a letter to the Public Utilities Commission, the company said it was seeking a “transparent, Commission-supervised forum” to evaluate the firm generation component within the broader portfolio of new resources without pre-determining its size or fuel requirement.

  • Launching a request for proposals for all fuels by the end of 2026, including liquid and gaseous fuels, to provide a competitive evaluation of such measures as price, sourcing and environmental impact.

Oʻahu, home to nearly one million residents, uses more than 70% of the electricity generated in Hawaiʻi. Electricity demand is growing at its fastest pace in two decades as transportation and industrial processes become increasingly electrified.

Hawaiian Electric emphasized that it remains open to a range of solutions to meet Hawaiʻi’s energy needs, including liquefied natural gas (LNG) for power generation.

“We believe natural gas could be a beneficial option for Hawaiʻi if it can deliver value to our customers,” Seu said. “At the same time, any such pathway must be evaluated transparently, rigorously, and independently through the PUC’s process.”

An affiliate of a Japan-based energy conglomerate announced its plan to create a separate regulated utility to build and operate what would be the biggest power plant on O‘ahu, fueled by LNG, with additional generating project investments to follow. This energy conglomerate notified the PUC it will seek approval of this project outside the longstanding competitive bidding structure.

If the PUC agrees to expand the scope of procurement in the upcoming competitive bidding process, the energy conglomerate’s project could be considered as part of the overall portfolio of resources being sought.

“Having more options is always good and we welcome proposals by all developers to help find the optimal resource mix for Hawaiʻi,” Seu said. “We believe in an open competitive process as opposed to a sole-source, multibillion-dollar contract without seeing what else is out there to ensure we’re getting the best outcome for Hawaiʻi today and for decades to come.”

Interested developers can find more information on Hawaiian Electric’s website about the company’s competitive bidding process. Information about the RFP regulatory proceeding can be found on the PUC website under docket number 2024-0258 and on HEI’s Investor Relations website in the “Reports & Filings” section, on the “Select PUC Filings” page.
