CUSIP No.246060107 | SCHEDULE 13D | Page 4 of 6 Pages |
Item 1. | SECURITY AND ISSUER |
This Amendment No. 1 ("Amendment No. 1") amends the statement on Schedule 13D filed on January 10, 2018 (the "Original Schedule 13D", and as amended hereby, the "Schedule 13D") with respect to the common stock (the "Shares"), of Delaware Enhanced Global Dividend & Income Fund (the "Issuer"). Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined in this Amendment No. 1 have the meanings set forth in the Original Schedule 13D. This Amendment No. 1 amends Items 3, 4, 5 and 7 as set forth below. | |
Item 3. | SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION |
Funds for the purchase of the Shares were derived from the subscription proceeds from investors in the funds managed by Saba Capital and the capital appreciation thereon and margin account borrowings made in the ordinary course of business. In such instances, the positions held in the margin accounts are pledged as collateral security for the repayment of debit balances in the account, which may exist from time to time. Since other securities are held in the margin accounts, it is not possible to determine the amounts, if any, of margin used to purchase the Shares reported herein. A total of $20,686,057 was paid to acquire the Shares reported herein. | |
Item 4. | PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION |
The Reporting Persons have engaged, and may continue to engage, in discussions with management and the Board of Directors of the Issuer regarding the long-term performance of the Issuer and the trading of the Shares at a discount to the Issuer's net asset value. On March 7, 2018, Saba Capital sent a letter to the Issuer containing a stockholder proposal under Rule 14a-8 requesting that the Board of Directors consider authorizing a self-tender for all outstanding Shares of the Issuer at or close to net asset value; provided, however, if more than 50% of the Issuer's outstanding Shares are submitted for tender, the tender offer should be cancelled and the Issuer should be liquidated or converted into an open-end mutual fund. A copy of the letter is attached as Exhibit 1. | |
Item 5. | INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER |
(a) | See rows (11) and (13) of the cover pages to this Schedule 13D for the aggregate number of Shares and percentages of the Shares beneficially owned by each of the Reporting Persons. The percentages used herein are calculated based upon 15,829,048 shares of common stock outstanding as of November 30, 2017, as disclosed in the company's Certified Shareholder Report Form N-CSR filed February 2, 2018. |
(b) | See rows (7) through (10) of the cover pages to this Schedule 13D for the number of Shares as to which each Reporting Person has the sole or shared power to vote or direct the vote and sole or shared power to dispose or to direct the disposition. |
