MGU Macquarie Global Infrastructure Total Return Fund Inc

Macquarie Global Infrastructure Total Return Fund Inc. (NYSE: MGU) announced today that the Fund’s Board of Directors has approved a tender offer for up to 20% of the Fund’s outstanding shares of common stock at a price equal to 95% of the net asset value per share, determined as of the business day immediately following the day the tender offer expires.

In addition, upon the prior occurrence of certain events as set out below as well as certain other terms and conditions, the Fund’s Board of Directors has approved a subsequent conditional tender 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. The tender offers were approved by the Board in accordance with an agreement between the Fund and Western Investment LLC and certain of its affiliates.

The Fund intends to commence its initial tender offer for up to 20% of the outstanding shares of common stock on or about October 18, 2012 with the expiration date anticipated on or about November 16, 2012.

The Fund’s subsequent conditional tender offer is conditioned on meeting certain threshold requirements related to the amount of shares tendered pursuant to the initial tender offer and the discount at which the Fund’s shares trade from their net asset value during the 20-business day period beginning January 15, 2013 (“measuring period”). If more than 25% of the Fund’s outstanding shares of common stock are validly tendered and not withdrawn pursuant to the initial tender offer and if the Fund’s shares have traded at a market price that represents an average daily discount from net asset value of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 measuring period, the Fund will commence a subsequent tender offer no later than fifteen business days following the end of the measuring period. The tender offer will be for up to 10% of the then-outstanding common stock at a price equal to 92% of the Fund’s net asset value per share, determined as of the business day immediately following the day the subsequent conditional tender offer expires. The average of the Fund’s daily premium or discount to net asset value for each trading day in the measuring period will be the percentage difference between the net asset value and the volume-weighted average price of the Fund on each trading day during the measuring period.

Further information about the initial tender offer and any subsequent tender offer will be announced via future press releases. The tender offers will be made and stockholders will be notified in accordance with the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, either by publication or mailing or both.
