Item 1.
This Amendment No. 3 amends and supplements the statement on Schedule 13D filed with the SEC on 9/29/23, as amended by Amendment No. 1 filed 12/4/23 and Amendment No. 2 filed 1/22/24; with respect to the common shares of BlackRock New York Municipal Income Trust. This Amendment No. 3 amends Items 3, 4, 5 and 7 as set forth below.
Item 3.
Funds for the purchase of the Common Shares were derived from the subscription proceeds from investors 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 Common Shares reported herein. A total of approximately $19,515,749 was paid to acquire the Common Shares reported herein.
Item 4.
Item 4 is hereby amended and supplemented as follows: On February 16, 2024, Saba Capital Master Fund, Ltd., a private fund advised by Saba Capital, submitted to the Issuer a notice of intent informing the Issuer of its intention to nominate two independent director candidates - Ilya Gurevich and Jennifer Raab (the " Nominees ") - for election to the Board at the Issuer's 2024 annual meeting of shareholders (the " Annual Meeting "). Each of the Nominees has entered into a nomination agreement (collectively, the " Nominee Agreement ") with Saba Capital substantially in the form attached as Exhibit 2 to this Schedule 13D/A, whereby such Nominees agreed to become members of a slate of nominees and stand for election as directors of the Issuer in connection with a proxy solicitation which may be conducted in respect of the Annual Meeting, and Saba Capital agreed to defend and indemnify such Nominees against, and with respect to, any losses that may be incurred by such Nominees in the event they become a party to litigation based on their nomination as candidates for election to the Board and the solicitation of proxies in support of their election. The foregoing summary of the Nominee Agreement is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the form of Nominee Agreement, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 2 and is incorporated by reference herein.
