Lysander Funds Limited Announces Unitholder Meeting Approval for Conversion of Canso Credit Income Fund into an Exchange-Traded Fund

TORONTO, June 04, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Lysander Funds Limited (“Lysander”), the manager of Canso Credit Income Fund (the “Fund”) (TSX: PBY.UN), announces that, at the special meeting of unitholders of the Fund held on June 4, 2026, unitholders of each class of the Fund have approved a change in the structure of the Fund from a closed-end fund into an exchange-traded fund (the “Conversion”), along with other related changes necessary to facilitate and implement the Conversion.

The Conversion of the Fund is expected to be implemented on or about July 28, 2026, subject to obtaining a receipt for the prospectus of the exchange-traded fund from the Canadian Securities Administrators and approval from the Toronto Stock Exchange. Upon the effective date of the Conversion, the Fund is expected to be named “Lysander-Canso Credit Income ActivETF”.

Lysander believes that the Conversion is expected to benefit existing unitholders of the Fund because, as an exchange-traded fund, the Fund will offer greater market liquidity and efficient trading. Following the Conversion, the Fund will be considered an “alternative mutual fund” within the meaning of National Instrument 81-102 – Investment Funds.
