Western Asset Middle Market Income Fund Inc. (XWMFX) announced today the final results for its issuer tender offer for up to 2.5% of the outstanding common stock (“Shares”) or 7,471 Shares of the Fund at a price equal to the Fund’s net asset value per Share on the day on which the tender offer expired. The Fund’s offer expired on January 4, 2017.

A total of 11,036 Shares were duly tendered and not withdrawn. Because the number of Shares tendered exceeds 7,471 Shares, the tender offer is oversubscribed. Therefore, in accordance with the terms and conditions specified in the tender offer, the Fund will purchase Shares from all tendering stockholders on a pro rata basis, disregarding fractions. Accordingly, on a pro rata basis, approximately 67.7% of Shares for each stockholder who properly tendered Shares have been accepted for payment. The Fund expects to transmit payment to purchase the duly tendered and accepted Shares on or about January 10, 2017. The purchase price of properly tendered Shares is $789.82 per Share, equal to the per Share net asset value as of the close of the regular trading session of the New York Stock Exchange on January 4, 2017. Shares that were tendered but not accepted for payment and Shares that were not tendered will remain outstanding.

Any questions about the tender offer can be directed to Georgeson LLC, the information agent for the tender offer, at (866) 431-2110.
