Templeton Global Income Fund Announces Legal Action to Prevent Certification of the Results of the Fund’s Annual Meeting of Shareholders

Templeton Global Income Fund [NYSE: GIM] (the “Fund”), today announced that the Fund and a Fund shareholder have filed a complaint and temporary restraining order request in United States District Court in the Southern District of New York seeking to prevent the certification of the results of the Fund’s Annual Meeting of Shareholders held on June 6, 2022 (the “Annual Meeting”).

The complaint alleges that, over the weekend prior to the Fund’s Annual Meeting, Saba Capital Management, L.P. and related individuals and parties (together, “Saba”) struck—but kept secret—a deal to pay at least one large institutional shareholder a significant premium to the market price of the Fund’s shares, with an additional premium if Saba’s nominees prevailed at the Annual Meeting. The complaint argues that federal securities laws expressly require that any such arrangements be fully disclosed with sufficient time to be absorbed by shareholders whose votes may be impacted. The complaint alleges that Saba failed to make those required disclosures, keeping its deal secret until after the Annual Meeting had concluded. The complaint requests that a new vote be held after Fund shareholders have had the benefit of true and complete information about Saba’s conduct and an opportunity to cast informed votes.
