(MUA) Announces Terms of Rights Offering to Pursue Attractive High Yield Municipal Opportunities<\/b><\/p>\n<p>NEW YORK&#8211;(<a href=\"http:\/\/www.businesswire.com\">BUSINESS WIRE<\/a>)&#8211;<br \/>\nBlackRock MuniAssets Fund, Inc. (NYSE: MUA) (the &#8220;Fund&#8221;) today announced the terms of transferable rights (&#8220;Rights&#8221;) to be issued to the holders of the Fund&#8217;s common shares of beneficial interest (par value $0.10 per share) (&#8220;Shares&#8221;) as of July 28, 2026 (the &#8220;Record Date&#8221;). Holders of Rights will be entitled to subscribe for additional Shares (the &#8220;Offer&#8221;) at a discount to the market price of the Shares.<\/p>\n<p>\nBlackRock Advisors, LLC (the \u201cAdviser\u201d) believes this is an attractive time to raise additional assets for the Fund based on several factors, including the following potential benefits:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"bwlistdisc\">\n<li><b>Compelling tax-advantaged income potential:<\/b> Interest rate volatility has pushed yields higher and steepened the curve, creating, in our view, more attractive entry points. High yield municipal (\u201cHY Muni\u201d) returns are increasingly driven by income, with tax-equivalent yields (TEY) approaching 10%.<sup>1\n<p><\/sup><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul class=\"bwlistdisc\">\n<li><b>Differentiated access that supports affordable housing in America:<\/b> Housing affordability remains a significant challenge across the United States. BlackRock is seeking to partner with low-income housing developers to bridge this gap. The Adviser expects to evaluate opportunities for the Fund to invest in tax-exempt bonds that finance affordable rental housing projects, including Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) bonds, where we believe that BlackRock\u2019s access is a differentiator among peers. Shareholders may benefit from above-average anticipated yields and strong fundamentals with historically low defaults. MUA currently allocates less than 50bps to this sector, with the potential to grow the allocation to up to 15-20% of managed assets, providing significant earnings accretion to shareholders.\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul class=\"bwlistdisc\">\n<li><b>High yield is well positioned:<\/b> We believe that HY Munis are well positioned to potentially outperform investment grade municipals returns over the coming year. We expect mid- to upper-single-digit total returns for HY Munis, driven by coupon income and stable credit fundamentals. We believe that the broader environment remains pro-risk, with technicals supported by strong demand and modest supply in the sector.\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><b>The Fund expects to maintain its current distribution level following the Offer.<\/b> Shares issued pursuant to the Offer will <span class=\"bwuline\">not<\/span> be eligible to receive any dividends or distributions with a record date prior to the Expiration Date (defined below).<\/p>\n<table cellspacing=\"0\" class=\"bwtablemarginb bwblockalignl bwwidth100\">\n<tr>\n<td colspan=\"2\" class=\"bwtopsingle bwsinglebottom bwleftsingle bwrightsingle bwrowaltcolor1 bwpadl1\" rowspan=\"1\">\n<p class=\"bwcellpmargin\"><b>Key terms of the Offer<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"bwsinglebottom bwleftsingle bwrightsingle bwwidth30 bwpadl1\" rowspan=\"1\" colspan=\"1\">\n<p class=\"bwcellpmargin\"><b>Record Date<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td class=\"bwsinglebottom bwrightsingle bwwidth70 bwpadl1\" rowspan=\"1\" colspan=\"1\">\n<p class=\"bwcellpmargin\">\nJuly 28, 2026<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"bwsinglebottom bwleftsingle bwrightsingle bwwidth30 bwpadl1\" rowspan=\"1\" colspan=\"1\">\n<p class=\"bwcellpmargin\"><b>Expiration Date<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td class=\"bwsinglebottom bwrightsingle bwwidth70 bwpadl1\" rowspan=\"1\" colspan=\"1\">\n<p class=\"bwcellpmargin\">\nAugust 20, 2026, unless extended by the Fund<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"bwsinglebottom bwleftsingle bwrightsingle bwwidth30 bwpadl1\" rowspan=\"1\" colspan=\"1\">\n<p class=\"bwcellpmargin\"><b>Rights Ratio<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td class=\"bwsinglebottom bwrightsingle bwwidth70 bwpadl1\" rowspan=\"1\" colspan=\"1\">\n<p class=\"bwcellpmargin\">\nRecord Date Shareholders will receive one Right for each Share held; three Rights are required to purchase one new Share.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"bwsinglebottom bwleftsingle bwrightsingle bwwidth30 bwpadl1\" rowspan=\"1\" colspan=\"1\">\n<p class=\"bwcellpmargin\"><b>Subscription Price<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td class=\"bwsinglebottom bwrightsingle bwwidth70 bwpadl1\" rowspan=\"1\" colspan=\"1\">\n<p class=\"bwcellpmargin\">\nThe Subscription Price will be determined on the Expiration Date pursuant to the formula described below, subject to a minimum price equal to 90% of the Fund\u2019s NAV per Share at the close of trading on the NYSE on the Expiration Date.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"bwsinglebottom bwleftsingle bwrightsingle bwwidth30 bwpadl1\" rowspan=\"1\" colspan=\"1\">\n<p class=\"bwcellpmargin\"><b>Shareholder Choices<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td class=\"bwsinglebottom bwrightsingle bwwidth70 bwpadl1\" rowspan=\"1\" colspan=\"1\">\n<p class=\"bwcellpmargin\">\nRecord Date Shareholders may exercise Rights, sell Rights on the NYSE during the trading period, or allow Rights to expire.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"bwsinglebottom bwleftsingle bwrightsingle bwwidth30 bwpadl1\" rowspan=\"1\" colspan=\"1\">\n<p class=\"bwcellpmargin\"><b>Offering Expenses<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td class=\"bwsinglebottom bwrightsingle bwwidth70 bwpadl1\" rowspan=\"1\" colspan=\"1\">\n<p class=\"bwcellpmargin\">\nThe Adviser will bear all expenses of the Offer; such expenses will not be borne by the Fund.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n<p>\nAdditional terms of the Offer include:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"bwlistdisc\">\n<li><b>Pricing formula:<\/b> The subscription price per Share (the &#8220;Subscription Price&#8221;) will be determined on the expiration date of the Offer, which is August 20, 2026, unless extended by the Fund (the &#8220;Expiration Date&#8221;), and will be equal to 95% of the average of the last reported sales price per Share on the New York Stock Exchange (the &#8220;NYSE&#8221;) on the Expiration Date and each of the four (4) immediately preceding trading days (the &#8220;Formula Price&#8221;).

If sufficient Shares are available, all Record Date Shareholders&#8217; over-subscription requests will be honored in full.

The Fund expects to mail subscription certificates evidencing the Rights and a copy of the prospectus supplement and accompanying prospectus for the Offer to Record Date Shareholders within the United States shortly following the Record Date. To exercise their Rights, shareholders who hold their Shares through a broker, custodian or trust company should contact such entity to forward their instructions to either exercise or sell their Rights on their behalf. Shareholders who do not hold Shares through a broker, custodian, or trust company should forward their instructions to either exercise or sell their Rights by completing the subscription certificate and delivering it to the subscription agent for the Offer, together with their payment, at one of the locations indicated on the subscription certificate or in the prospectus supplement.<\/p>\n<p><b>The information in this press release is not complete and is subject to change.
