(NYSE: JEQ), a diversified management investment company, announced today the commencement of the previously disclosed cash tender offer to purchase up to 7,072,985 shares, representing approximately 50% of the Fund's outstanding shares, at a price per share equal to 98% of the Fund's net asset value ("NAV") per share as determined by the Fund on the next business day immediately following the expiration date of the tender offer (the "Tender Offer").  The Tender Offer commences at 12:01 am, August 1, 2025, and will expire at 5:00 p.m.

JEQ shareholders approved a merger into ASGI, shifting the fund's focus from Japan equities to global infrastructure investments. A tender offer in August 2025 allows shareholders to exit at 98% of NAV, which is attractive given the fund's historic discount. We believe current JEQ holders should exit via the tender offer or sell outright unless they specifically want global infrastructure exposure.
