Your Vote Matters
BlackRock MuniYield Pennsylvania
Quality Fund (NYSE: MPA)
MPA’s annual meeting is June 18. Vote today: Defend your fund, save your income.
Dear Shareholder,
BlackRock is fighting to protect your Fund, but we need your support.
A self-interested hedge fund is seeking control of MPA. Their goal? A quick profit at the expense of your long-term investment.
This is not Saba’s first takeover attempt, and where they have taken control, shareholders have paid the price with underperformance, deeper discounts, and higher fees.
Together, we can prevent a forced takeover and a negative outcome for shareholders.
Vote today—only with your vote can we save your investment and financial future.
Thank
you,
Stephen Minar
Managing Director,
