Negotiations Concluded Without Agreement
Ocean Capital LLC (collectively with its affiliates, “Ocean Capital” or “we”), a significant shareholder of various Puerto Rico closed-end bond funds that are or were managed or co-managed by UBS Asset Managers of Puerto Rico, today announced that it has terminated its nondisclosure agreement (the “NDA”) with Tax-Free Fixed Income Fund IV for Puerto Rico Residents, Inc. (the “Fund”) effective November 6, 2025.
The NDA had been executed to facilitate discussions of potential cooperation between Ocean Capital and the Fund. In the course of those discussions, representatives of the Fund made clear to Ocean Capital that the Fund’s board of directors believes that it is in the best interest of the Fund’s shareholders to provide liquidity and eliminate the discount to net asset value at which its shares are currently trading. Further, such representatives acknowledged that the conversion of the Fund to an open-end structure could be a potential option to achieve these objectives.
