Item 1. SECURITY AND ISSUER
   

This Amendment No. 3 amends and supplements the statement on Schedule 13D filed with the SEC on March 14, 2019 (the “Original Schedule 13D”), as amended by Amendment No. 1 to the Original Schedule 13D filed with the SEC on April 18, 2019 (“Amendment No. 1”), and Amendment No. 2 filed with the SEC on May 24, 2019 (“Amendment No. 2”, and together with this Amendment No. 3, the Original Schedule 13D and Amendment No. 1, the “Schedule 13D”), with respect to the Common Shares of Western Asset Global High Income Fund Inc. This Amendment No. 3 amends Items 3, 4 and 5 as set forth below.

   
Item 3.

SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION

   
 

Item 3 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

   

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 $70,750,244 was paid to acquire the Common Shares reported herein.

   
Item 4.

PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION

   
 

Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

   

On July 24, 2019, Saba Capital submitted to the Issuer a notice informing the Issuer of its intention to (i) present a proposal requesting the board of directors of the Issuer (the “Board”) take all necessary steps (other than any steps that must be taken by shareholders) in its power to declassify the Board so that directors are elected on an annual basis starting at the next annual meeting of shareholders (the “Proposal”); such declassification shall be completed in a manner that does not affect the unexpired terms of the previously elected directors, and (ii) nominate the following three persons—David Basile, Stephen J. Flanagan and Frederic Gabriel—for election to the Board at the 2019 annual meeting of shareholders.

   
Item 5. INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER
   
  Items 5(a) – (c) of the Schedule 13D are hereby amended and restated as follows:



CUSIP No. 95766B109 SCHEDULE 13D/A Page 5 of 6 Pages
