Macquarie Global Infrastructure Total Return Fund Inc. (NYSE: MGU) (the “Fund”) announced today it is commencing a tender offer (the “Offer”) to purchase for cash up to 1,385,366 (representing approximately 10%) of its issued and outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, at a price equal to 92% of the net asset value (“NAV”) per share, determined as of the business day immediately following the day the Offer expires. The Offer will expire on April 3, 2013, at 12:00 midnight, New York City time, or on such later date to which the Offer is extended.

If the number of shares validly tendered and not properly withdrawn exceeds the maximum amount of the Offer then, on the terms and subject to the conditions of the Offer, the Fund will purchase shares from tendering stockholders on a pro rata basis. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the Fund will purchase all of a stockholder’s tendered shares.

The NAV per share as of the close of the regular trading session of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) on March 5, 2013 was $23.22 and the last reported sale price on the NYSE on such date for a share was $21.00. Until the Offer expires, NAV per share quotations can be obtained from AST Fund Solutions, LLC, the information agent for the Offer, by calling (800) 331-7024 (toll free) between the hours of 9:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m., New York City time, Monday through Friday (except holidays). The depositary for the offer is The Colbent Corporation.

None of the Fund, its Board, its investment adviser or the information agent is making any recommendation to stockholders as to whether to tender or refrain from tendering their shares into the Offer. Stockholders, together with their tax and financial advisors, are solely responsible for determining how many shares they will tender, if any, for purchase by the Fund.

This press release is for informational purposes only and is not a recommendation, an offer to buy or the solicitation of an offer to sell any shares. The solicitation and offer to buy shares will only be made pursuant to the offer to purchase and the other tender offer documents that the Fund is disseminating to its stockholders.
