Duff & Phelps Select MLP and Midstream Energy Fund Inc. To Redeem All Mandatory Redeemable Preferred Shares

HARTFORD, Conn., March 24, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- The Duff & Phelps Select MLP and Midstream Energy Fund Inc. DSE, a closed-end fund managed by Duff & Phelps Investment Management Co., announced today that it will redeem all outstanding shares of the Series A and Series B Preferred Shares (CUSIP Nos. 26433F2#4 and 26433F3#3), effective March 31, 2020 (the redemption date). This announcement supersedes the fund's announcement on March 11, 2020, regarding redemption of Series B Preferred Shares only.

The shares will be redeemed at a price equal to $25.00 per share (the liquidation preference), plus cash dividends accumulated but unpaid as of the redemption date. The fund reached an agreement with the holders of its Series A and B preferred shares to accelerate the payment on Series B Preferred Shares as well as redeem all of the Series A Preferred Shares in exchange for their agreeing to forego their right to receive an additional payment of up to 2% of the liquidation preference.

The elimination of the additional payments, combined with the redemption of the preferred shares, will result in reduced costs for the fund's common shareholders. Upon the redemption, the preferred shares will no longer be deemed outstanding, dividends will cease to accumulate, and all the rights of the shareholders with respect to all of the fund's preferred shares will cease.
