Macquarie Global Infrastructure Total Return Fund Inc. (NYSE: MGU) (the “Fund”) announced today the final results of its cash tender offer for up to 3,463,415 (representing approximately 20%) of its issued and outstanding shares of common stock (the “Offer”). The Offer expired on November 16, 2012, at 12:00 midnight, New York City time.

Based on information provided by The Colbent Corporation, the depository for the tender offer, approximately 8,199,887 shares of common stock or approximately 47.4% of the Fund’s outstanding shares of common stock were properly tendered, and the Fund has accepted 3,463,415 shares for cash payment at a price equal to $19.49 per share, which represents 95% of the Fund’s net asset value per share (“NAV”) as of the close of regular trading session of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) on November 19, 2012. Since the total number of shares tendered exceeds the number of shares the Fund offered to purchase, on a pro-rated basis, 42.2% of the shares of common stock tendered by each tendering shareholder were accepted for payment. Following the purchase of the properly tendered shares, the Fund will have approximately 13,853,659 outstanding shares.

The Fund previously announced that it would commence a subsequent conditional offer for up to 10% of the then-outstanding shares of common stock at a price equal to 92% of the net asset value per share, determined as of the business day immediately following the day the subsequent conditional tender offer expires, if: (1) more than 25% of the Fund’s outstanding shares of common stock are validly tendered and not properly withdrawn pursuant to the Offer and (2) the Fund’s shares have traded at a market price that represents an average daily discount from net asset value of more than 8% during the 20-business day period beginning January 15, 2013 (“measuring period”). The Fund would commence a subsequent tender offer no later than fifteen business days following the conclusion of the measuring period. The first condition has been met because more than 25% of the Fund’s outstanding shares of common stock were validly tendered and not withdrawn pursuant to the Offer. The subsequent conditional offer will occur if the second condition is met, which will be announced after the end of the measuring period.
