Demands PRITF VI and TFF Convene the Annual Meetings Within One Month of the Current Annual Meeting Date, Should They Be Adjourned Due to Lack of Quorum

Highlights the UBS-Managed Funds’ Entrenchment Tactics and Attempts to Disenfranchise Shareholders, Including by Refusing to Seat Ocean Capital’s Nominees Who Were Elected to the Boards of Three Funds by a Wide Margin

Ocean Capital LLC (collectively with its affiliates, “Ocean Capital” or “we”), a significant stockholder of numerous Puerto Rico closed-end bond funds (the “Funds”), which are managed or co-managed by an affiliate of UBS Financial Services Incorporated of Puerto Rico (“UBS”), today publicized letters sent to the Boards of Directors (the “Boards”) of Puerto Rico Residents Tax-Free Fund VI, Inc. (“PRITF VI”) and Tax-Free Fund for Puerto Rico Residents, Inc. (“TFF” and collectively with PRITF VI, the “Funds”) regarding the Funds’ upcoming annual meetings of shareholders (the “Annual Meetings”) scheduled for August 3, 2023.

The letters, which can be found here (PRITF VI / TFF) demand that, in the event the July 28, 2023 preliminary vote tallies indicate that voter turnout for the Annual Meetings is greater than 45% – just shy of quorum – the Funds must not adjourn the meeting for longer than one month.

W. Heath Hawk, managing member of Ocean Capital, commented:

“For over two years, Ocean Capital has been fighting for shareholder-driven change at nine of the UBS-managed funds, including PRITF VI and TFF. By nominating highly qualified and independent director candidates to the Boards of these Funds, we are giving shareholders the choice between entrenched, long-tenured directors who have overseen years of poor performance and corporate governance lapses and a new slate of directors focused on maximizing value for shareholders. Unfortunately, the Funds have continued to blatantly deny the rights of shareholders and dodge accountability by repeatedly delaying or adjourning the Annual Meetings, refusing to seat duly elected directors at three of the funds, including previous meetings of PRITF VI and TFF, and filing what we believe is baseless litigation against Ocean Capital and other shareholders.

That is why we are demanding that, if the Annual Meetings are adjourned again on August 3^rd, they be reconvened within one month instead of the three-month adjournment the Funds typically employ. We believe that a one-month adjournment should give the Funds and Ocean Capital adequate time to solicit enough votes to reach a quorum. Anything longer would unnecessarily delay the Annual Meetings and further disenfranchise shareholders.”
