Western Asset Intermediate Muni Fund Inc. Commences Issuer Tender Offer for Auction Rate Preferred Stock

Western Asset Intermediate Muni Fund Inc. (the “Fund”) (NYSE:SBI) announced today that it commenced an issuer tender offer for up to 100% of its outstanding Series M Municipal Auction Rate Cumulative Preferred Stock (“ARPS”) at a price equal to 90% of the liquidation preference of $25,000 per share (or $22,500 per share), plus any unpaid dividends accrued through the termination date of the tender offer. Additional terms of the tender offer are set forth in the Fund’s tender offer materials, which have been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and will be distributed to ARPS holders.

The Fund’s tender offer is conditioned upon the closing of the proposed private offering of new preferred stock (the “New Preferred Stock”) with an aggregate liquidation preference at least equal to the aggregate liquidation preference of ARPS accepted in the Offer, as set forth in the Fund’s offer to purchase and related letter of transmittal. The Fund currently intends to replace any leverage associated with the tendered ARPS with the New Preferred Stock.

Any questions about how to tender ARPS can be directed to Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, the information agent for the tender offer, at (877) 843-9767.

The tender offer will be made only by an offer to purchase, a related letter of transmittal, and related documents, which have been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission as exhibits to a tender offer statement on Schedule TO. ARPS holders can obtain the tender offer documents free of charge on the Securities and Exchange Commission’s website at www.sec.gov. In addition, ARPS holders may obtain additional copies of the offer to purchase and related letter of transmittal for the Fund, without charge, by contacting the information agent for the tender offer at (877) 843-9767. ARPS holders should read these documents and related exhibits for the Fund carefully as the documents contain important information about the Fund’s tender offer and proxy solicitation.
