Record date                     June 11, 2026
Payable date                     July 1, 2026

These funds make distributions in accordance with a managed distribution plan that provides for the declaration of monthly distributions (in the case of the Allspring Income Opportunities Fund, the Allspring Multi-Sector Income Fund and the Allspring Utilities and High Income Fund) or quarterly distributions (in the case of the Allspring Global Dividend Opportunity Fund) to common shareholders of the fund at an annual minimum fixed rate of 8% for the Allspring Utilities and High Income Fund, 8.75% for the Allspring Income Opportunities Fund, 8.75% for the Allspring Multi-Sector Income Fund, and 9% for the Allspring Global Dividend Opportunity Fund based on the fund’s average monthly net asset value (NAV) per share over the prior 12 months. Under the managed distribution plan, distributions are sourced from income and also may be sourced from paid-in capital and/or capital gains. The fund’s distributions in any period may be more or less than the net return earned by the fund on its investments and therefore should not be used as a measure of performance or confused with yield or income. Distributions in excess of fund returns will cause the fund’s NAV to decline. Investors should not draw any conclusions about the fund’s investment performance from the amount of its distribution or from the terms of its managed distribution plan.

The Allspring Income Opportunities Fund is a closed-end high-yield bond fund. The fund’s investment objective is to seek a high level of current income. The fund may, as a secondary objective, seek capital appreciation to the extent it is consistent with its investment objective.

The Allspring Multi-Sector Income Fund is a closed-end income fund. The fund’s investment objective is to seek a high level of current income consistent with limiting its overall exposure to domestic interest rate risk.

The Allspring Utilities and High Income Fund is a closed-end equity and high-yield bond fund. The fund’s investment objective is to seek a high level of current income and moderate capital growth with an emphasis on providing tax-advantaged dividend income.

The Allspring Global Dividend Opportunity Fund is a closed-end equity and high-yield bond fund. The fund’s investment objective is to seek a high level of current income. The fund’s secondary objective is long-term growth of capital.

The final determination of the source of all dividend distributions in the current year will be made after year-end. The actual amounts and sources of the amounts for tax-reporting purposes will depend upon a fund’s investment experience during the remainder of the fiscal year and may be subject to change based on tax regulations. Each fund will send shareholders a Form 1099-DIV for the calendar year that will tell shareholders how to report these distributions for federal income tax purposes.

For more information on Allspring’s closed-end funds, please visit www.allspringglobal.com.

Shares of these closed-end funds are only available for purchase and sale at the current market price on the stock exchange on which it is listed. Shares of a fund may trade at either a premium or discount relative to the fund’s net asset value, and there can be no assurance that any discount will decrease. The values of, and/or the income generated by, securities held by a fund may decline due to general market conditions or other factors, including those directly involving the issuers of such securities.

Equity securities fluctuate in value in response to factors specific to the issuer of the security. Debt securities are subject to credit risk and interest rate risk, and high-yield securities and unrated securities of similar credit quality have a much greater risk of default and their values tend to be more volatile than higher-rated securities with similar maturities. Foreign investments may contain more risk due to the inherent risks associated with changing political climates, foreign market instability, and foreign currency fluctuations. Risks of international investing are magnified in emerging or developing markets. Funds that concentrate their investments in a single industry or sector may face increased risk of price fluctuation over more diversified funds due to adverse developments within that industry or sector. Small- and mid-cap securities may be subject to special risks associated with narrower product lines and limited financial resources compared with their large-cap counterparts. Each fund is leveraged through a revolving credit facility and also may incur leverage by issuing preferred shares in the future.

The use of leverage results in certain risks, including, among others, the likelihood of greater volatility of the net asset value and the market price of common shares. Derivatives involve additional risks, including interest rate risk, credit risk, the risk of improper valuation, and the risk of noncorrelation to the relevant instruments they are designed to hedge or closely track. There are numerous risks associated with transactions in options on securities.

Allspring Global Investments™ is the trade name for the asset management firms of Allspring Global Investments Holdings, LLC, a holding company indirectly owned by certain private funds of GTCR LLC and Reverence Capital Partners, L.P. These firms include but are not limited to Allspring Global Investments, LLC, and Allspring Funds Management, LLC.

FOTILE Showcases Next-Generation Kitchen Innovations at IDS Vancouver 2026

FreshBake™ Range and JQG7515 Range Hood highlight FOTILE’s approach to cleaner, smarter and more user-centered cooking

  VANCOUVER, BC, Sept. 25, 2026 /CNW/ — FOTILE is showcasing its latest kitchen appliance innovations at IDS Vancouver 2026, highlighting how new technologies can address real challenges in today’s kitchens while creating cleaner, smarter and more intuitive cooking experiences.

Now on display at Booth 906 at the Vancouver Convention Centre West, FOTILE’s IDS showcase is led by two of its latest innovations: the FreshBake™ Electric Range and the JQG7515 next-generation inclined range hood.

The FreshBake™ Range addresses an often-overlooked aspect of everyday cooking: indoor air quality. Cooking can generate smoke, odors, volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and fine particulate matter. FOTILE’s FreshBake™ Technology integrates advanced PCF filtration and multi-stage purification into the appliance to help reduce cooking pollutants at the source and minimize lingering odors.

By bringing air purification closer to where cooking pollutants are generated, FreshBake introduces a new perspective on range design — expanding the role of a cooking appliance beyond food preparation to consider the overall kitchen environment and everyday well-being.

Also featured at IDS is the JQG7515, the latest evolution of FOTILE’s signature inclined range hood platform. Combining powerful smoke and grease capture with intelligent controls, the JQG7515 demonstrates how kitchen ventilation is becoming increasingly connected to the broader cooking experience.

Features including gesture control, app connectivity and appliance synchronization allow users to interact with ventilation more naturally, while helping transform the range hood from a standalone appliance into an integrated part of the smart kitchen.

Together, FreshBake and JQG7515 reflect FOTILE’s approach to innovation: identifying practical challenges in everyday cooking and applying engineering, intelligent technology and human-centered design to create meaningful improvements for users.

Throughout IDS Vancouver 2026, attendees can experience FOTILE’s latest innovations through live cooking demonstrations and product displays featuring the FreshBake™ Electric Range, JQG7515 inclined range hood, ChefCubii countertop combi oven and other kitchen solutions. The showcase highlights how FOTILE combines cooking, ventilation and intelligent technology to create a cleaner, smarter and more intuitive kitchen experience.

Published

on

By

SOUTHLAKE, Texas, Sept. 25, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Sabre Corporation (“Sabre”) (Nasdaq: SABR) today announced the early tender results of the previously announced cash tender offer (the “Tender Offer”) by Sabre Financial Borrower, LLC (“Sabre Financial”), its indirect wholly-owned subsidiary, for any and all of Sabre Financial’s securities set forth in the table below (the “Securities”) and concurrent solicitation of consents (the “Consent Solicitation”) to certain proposed amendments to the Securities and the Indenture (as defined below). The Tender Offer and Consent Solicitation will expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on October 12, 2026 (unless extended or earlier terminated, the “Expiration Date”).

The Tender Offer and Consent Solicitation are being made pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in the offer to purchase and consent solicitation statement, dated September 14, 2026 (the “Offer to Purchase”).

As of 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on September 25, 2026 (such date and time, the “Early Tender Deadline” and “Withdrawal Deadline,” as applicable), according to information provided to D.F. King & Co., Inc., the tender and information agent for the Tender Offer and Consent Solicitation, the aggregate principal amount of Securities listed in the table below has been validly tendered and not validly withdrawn in the Tender Offer and Consent Solicitation. Withdrawal rights for the Securities expired at the Early Tender Deadline and, accordingly, any Securities that were validly tendered may no longer be withdrawn except where additional withdrawal rights are required by law.

(1)

Dollars per $1,000 principal amount of Securities validly tendered and accepted for purchase.

(2)

Includes Early Tender Premium (as defined below). Does not include accrued and unpaid interest on the Securities, which will also be payable as provided herein.

The Tender Offer and Consent Solicitation remain subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions described in the Offer to Purchase, including the financing for the Tender Offer and Consent Solicitation. Such conditions may be waived by Sabre Financial in its sole discretion, subject to applicable law. Any waiver of a condition by Sabre Financial will not constitute a waiver of any other condition. Subject to the satisfaction or waiver of such conditions and as described in the Offer to Purchase, Sabre Financial is expected to make payment on September 28, 2026 (such date and time, as it may be extended, the “Early Settlement Date”) for the Securities and related consents that (i) were validly tendered and delivered, as applicable, and not validly withdrawn or revoked, as applicable, at or prior to the Early Tender Deadline and (ii) are accepted for purchase on the Early Settlement Date.

The consideration to be paid for the Securities accepted for purchase on the Early Settlement Date per $1,000 principal amount of Securities is the amount set forth in the table above under the heading “Total Consideration.” The amounts set forth in the table above under “Total Consideration” include an early tender premium of $50 per $1,000 principal amount of Securities accepted for purchase (the “Early Tender Premium”). All Holders of Securities accepted for purchase will also receive accrued and unpaid interest from the most recent interest payment date preceding the Early Settlement Date to, but not including, the Early Settlement Date.

Any Holder who tenders Securities in the Tender Offer and Consent Solicitation will be deemed to automatically have provided consents, and Securities may not be tendered without delivering consents. Based on the consents received as of the Early Tender Deadline, Sabre Financial has obtained the required consents to effect all of the proposed amendments (the “Proposed Amendments”) as described in the Offer to Purchase. Consequently, as previously announced, Sabre Financial expects to execute a supplemental indenture (the “Supplemental Indenture”) effecting the Proposed Amendments with respect to the indenture dated December 5, 2025 (the “Indenture”), entered into by and among Sabre Financial, the guarantors party thereto, and Wilmington Trust, National Association, as trustee and collateral agent, under which the Securities were issued, and the Securities on or about the Early Settlement Date. The Supplemental Indenture will become effective upon (a) its execution and delivery by each of the parties thereto, and (b) the settlement of the Tender Offer with respect to accepted Securities tendered prior to the Early Tender Deadline on the Early Settlement Date.

In addition, pursuant to the terms of the Indenture, because more than 90% of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities outstanding has been validly tendered in the Tender Offer, Sabre Financial intends, following its purchase of the tendered Securities, to deliver a notice of redemption to redeem all Securities that remain outstanding after giving effect to the purchase of the Securities on the Early Settlement Date. The redemption price for such Securities will be equal to the Total Consideration set forth in the table above, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the redemption date. The redemption date is expected to be October 13, 2026. Notwithstanding the foregoing, there can be no assurance that any Securities will be redeemed. Nothing herein shall constitute a notice of redemption with respect to the Securities.

Sabre Financial reserves the right, subject to applicable law, in its sole discretion, to waive any of the conditions of the Tender Offer or the Consent Solicitation, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time. It also reserves the right, subject to applicable law, in its sole discretion, (1) to terminate or withdraw the Tender Offer or the Consent Solicitation at any time; (2) to extend the Early Tender Deadline, the Withdrawal Deadline or the Expiration Date; or (3) otherwise to amend the Tender Offer or Consent Solicitation in any respect. It may extend the Early Tender Deadline without extending the Withdrawal Deadline.
