During the second quarter of 2023 and ~~Exhibits~~the second quarter of 2024, the IRS approved a reduction to the Agreed Security Amount for a total of approximately $132 million that allowed the Fund to make a distribution of such amount.

On May 25, 2023, the Court of Appeal for Saskatchewan, Canada affirmed the permanent stay of the Larocque Action which allowed the Fund to distribute the additional $200,000,000 from the holdback in the Larocque Action. On December 14, 2023, the Court of Appeal for Saskatchewan, Canada dismissed the leave to appeal from its judgment from the Larocque Action, which allowed the Fund to distribute the final holdback of $100,000,000.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION

This document contains forward-looking statements concerning the Fund’s liquidation and dissolution pursuant to the Plan. Without limiting the foregoing, words or phrases such as “will likely result,” “are expected to,” “will continue,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “project,” “believe,” “intend” or similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. These statements are not statements of historical facts and do not reflect historical information. Forward-looking statements are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties and actual results may differ materially from those statements. Such risks and uncertainties relate to, among other things: the availability, timing and amount of liquidating distributions; the amounts that will need to be set aside by the Fund; the adequacy of such reserves to satisfy the Fund’s obligations; the ability of the Fund to favorably resolve certain potential tax claims, litigation matters and other unresolved contingent liabilities of the Fund; the application of, and any changes in, applicable tax laws, regulations, administrative practices, principles and interpretations; and the incurrence by the Fund of expenses relating to the liquidation and dissolution. Further information regarding the risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results to differ from the results in these forward-looking statements are discussed under the section “Principal Risks” in the certified shareholder report of registered management investment companies we filed with the SEC on February 15, 2024. Please carefully consider these factors, as well as other information contained in the Proxy Statement, and in the Fund’s periodic reports and documents filed with the SEC. The forward-looking statements included in this document are made only as of the date hereof.

The Fund does not undertake any obligation to update or supplement such forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof, except as required by law. Because the Fund is an investment company, the forward-looking statements and projections in this press release are excluded from the safe harbor protection provided by Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
