Nuveen Preferred and Income Term Fund Announces Result of Shareholder Meeting and Commencement of Tender Offer

Shareholders of Nuveen Preferred and Income Term Fund (NYSE: JPI) have approved a proposal to amend the fund’s declaration of trust to eliminate the fund’s term structure, subject to the completion of a tender offer. The amendment will allow shareholders the opportunity to maintain their investment in JPI and its leveraged exposure to preferred and other income producing securities in lieu of the fund’s scheduled termination.

JPI today commenced its tender offer, which will allow shareholders to offer up to 100% of their common shares for repurchase for cash at a price per share equal to 100% of the net asset value per share as of the close of ordinary trading on the New York Stock Exchange on the expiration date of the tender offer. The tender offer expires on August 14, 2024 at 5:00 p.m. Eastern time, or on such later date to which the offer is extended.

The completion of the fund’s tender offer is subject to certain conditions, including that the aggregate common assets of the fund must equal or exceed $70 million as of the expiration date of the tender offer, taking into account the amounts that would be paid to shareholders who have properly tendered their shares. If the fund’s common assets after the tender offer would be less than $70 million, the tender offer will be cancelled with no common shares repurchased, and instead, the fund will proceed to terminate as scheduled on or before August 31, 2024. Additional terms and conditions of the tender offer will be set forth in the fund’s tender offer documents, which will be distributed to common shareholders.

In the interim period, the fund may not be fully invested in accordance with its investment policies and may reduce its leverage in order to raise liquid assets in anticipation of payments to either tendering shareholders or to all shareholders in liquidation of the fund in connection with its scheduled termination.

If the tender offer is completed, JPI’s term structure will be eliminated and the fund’s name will change to “Nuveen Preferred Securities & Income Opportunities Fund.” The common shares of the fund will continue to trade on the New York Stock Exchange under the current ticker symbol. In addition, if the fund’s term structure is eliminated, Nuveen will waive 50% of its net management fees over the first year following the elimination of the term, which may result in higher net income during the year in which it is in effect.

The fund will declare its regular monthly distribution according to a modified schedule. The following dates will apply to the fund’s August monthly distribution:

Record Date

August 20, 2024

Ex-Dividend Date

August 20, 2024

Payable Date

September 3, 2024

Shareholders participating in the tender offer will not receive the August 2024 monthly distribution on tendered shares.

Any tender offer will be made only by an offer to purchase, a related letter of transmittal and other documents that will be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) as exhibits to a tender offer statement on Schedule TO.
