Goldman Sachs Asset Management Announces Share Repurchase Program For Goldman Sachs MLP and Energy Renaissance Fund

Goldman Sachs Asset Management, investment adviser for the Goldman Sachs MLP and Energy Renaissance Fund ("the Fund") (NYSE:GER) announced today that the Fund's Board of Trustees has approved a share repurchase program for the Fund effective from May 15, 2022, through April 30, 2023. Under the share repurchase program, GER intends to purchase in the open market, up to $10 million of its outstanding common shares, if trading at a discount to net asset value ("NAV") per share in excess of 10%. The share repurchase program seeks to enhance shareholder value by purchasing the Fund's shares trading at a discount to NAV per share, which could result in NAV and Net Investment Income per share accretion.

"We are continuously evaluating ways to enhance shareholder value and believe that at this time repurchasing shares in the open market is once again the optimal method to deliver value to shareholders. We expect the repurchase will be accretive to the Fund's NAV and per share cash flow," said Portfolio Manager Kyri Loupis.

The Fund's repurchase activity will be disclosed in its shareholder reports for the relevant fiscal periods. The share purchase program will follow the requirements of Rule 10b-18 and Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and there is no assurance that the Fund will repurchase shares in any amount.

There is no assurance that the Fund will meet its investment objective. Past performance does not guarantee future results. Investments in securities of MLPs involve risks that differ from investments in common stock, including among others risks related to limited control and limited rights to vote on matters affecting MLPs, potential conflicts of interest risk, cash flow risks, dilution risks and trading risks.
