It is currently expected that the Reorganization will be completed in the first quarter of 2023 subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nDelaware Management Company, a series of Macquarie Investment Management Business Trust, is the investment manager of the Acquired Fund. Aberdeen Asset Managers Limited is the investment adviser of the Acquiring Fund and abrdn Inc. is the investment sub-adviser of the Acquiring Fund.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nThe information in this press release is for informational purposes only and shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities or the solicitation of any vote or approval in any jurisdiction pursuant to or in connection with the proposed transaction or otherwise, nor shall there be any sale, issuance or transfer of securities in any jurisdiction in contravention of applicable law. No offer of securities shall be made except by means of a prospectus meeting the requirements of Section 10 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.\n<\/p>\n<p><b>About the Acquired Fund<\/b><\/p>\n<p>\nThe Fund\u2019s investment objective is to seek to provide total return through a combination of a high level of current income and capital appreciation. The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing primarily in a portfolio of high yield corporate bonds of varying maturities and other fixed income instruments of predominantly corporate issuers, including first- and second-lien secured loans (\u201cSecured Loans\u201d). In addition, the Fund utilizes leveraging techniques in an attempt to obtain a higher return for the Fund. There can be no assurance that the Fund will achieve its investment objective.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nUnder normal circumstances, the Fund will invest at least 80% of its Managed Assets (as defined below) in a portfolio of U.S. and foreign bonds, loans and other fixed income instruments, as well as other investments (including derivatives) with similar economic characteristics. The Fund will invest primarily in instruments that are, at the time of purchase, rated below investment grade (below Baa3 by Moody\u2019s Investors Service, Inc. (\u201cMoody\u2019s\u201d) or below BBB- by either Standard &amp; Poor\u2019s Rating Services (\u201cS&amp;P\u201d) or Fitch, Inc. (\u201cFitch\u201d), or comparably rated by another nationally recognized statistical rating organization (\u201cNRSRO\u201d)), or unrated but judged by the Adviser to be of comparable quality. \u201cManaged Assets\u201d means the Fund\u2019s total assets, including the assets attributable to the proceeds from any borrowings or other forms of structural leverage minus liabilities other than the aggregate indebtedness entered into for purposes of leverage. The Fund may invest 100% of its Managed Assets in fixed income instruments and securities issued by foreign issuers, and up to 25% of its Managed Assets in fixed income instruments and securities of issuers in emerging markets. Such foreign instruments may be U.S. currency denominated or foreign currency denominated. Under normal market conditions the Fund\u2019s investments will consist predominantly of high yield bonds and\/or Secured Loans; however, the Fund\u2019s investments in fixed income instruments also may include, to a lesser extent, debentures, notes, commercial paper, investment grade bonds, loans other than secured loans, including unsecured loans and mezzanine loans, and other similar types of debt instruments, as well as derivatives related to or referencing these types of securities and instruments. The Fund will not invest in collateralized loan obligations or collateralized debt obligations. The Fund will seek to dynamically adjust and hedge its duration depending on the market opportunities available. Under normal circumstances, the dollar-weighted average portfolio duration of the Fund will generally range between zero and seven years.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nThe Fund is a non-diversified, closed-end management investment company. The price of the Fund\u2019s shares will fluctuate with market conditions and other factors. Closed-end funds frequently trade at a discount from their net asset values (NAVs), which may increase an investor\u2019s risk of loss. At the time of sale, shares may have a market price that is below NAV and may be worth less than the original investment upon their sale.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nThe Fund\u2019s investments in below investment grade securities (commonly referred to as \u201chigh yield securities\u201d or \u201cjunk bonds\u201d) may carry a greater risk of nonpayment of interest or principal than higher rated bonds. Loans (including loan assignments, loan participations and other loan instruments) carry other risks, including the risk of insolvency of the lending bank or other intermediary. Loans may be unsecured or not fully collateralized, may be subject to restrictions on resale and sometimes trade infrequently on the secondary market.\n<\/p>\n<p><b>About Macquarie Asset Management<\/b><\/p>\n<p>\nMacquarie Asset Management is a global asset manager that aims to deliver positive impact for everyone.
