Build America Investment Grade Bond Fund declares regular and special distributions
TORONTO, Feb. 18, 2015 /CNW/ - Aston Hill Capital Markets Inc. ("Aston Hill") as manager of Build America Investment Grade Bond Fund (the "Fund") announced today regular and special distributions for the Fund.
The regular monthly distribution of $0.1198 per Class A Unit and Class F Unit will be paid on March 13, 2015 to holders of record on February 27, 2015. In addition, the Fund will pay a special capital gains distribution to Unitholders of record on February 27, 2015. The special capital gains distribution will be comprised of $0.6084 per Class A Unit ($0.6739 per Class F Unit) which will be paid in additional Units (to be consolidated back to the original number of Units of the Fund, resulting in Unitholders incurring a non-cash capital gain equal to the non-cash portion of the distribution amount with a matching increase in their adjusted cost base per Unit) and $0.2028 per Class A Unit ($0.2247 per Class F Unit) in cash to offset the estimated tax liability of Unitholders resulting from such distribution. The cash portion of the distribution will be paid on or about March 13, 2015. The capital gains distribution is largely the result of the scheduled termination of the Fund's forward purchase and sale agreement. The forward agreement was entered into by the Fund at its inception date to provide unitholders with tax-advantaged distributions characterized as return of capital.
