Item 1.

SECURITY AND ISSUER

 

 

 

This Amendment No. 5 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 filed April 18, 2019, Amendment No. 2 filed May 24, 2019, Amendment No. 3 filed July 29, 2019, and Amendment No. 4 filed February 27, 2020; with respect to the Common Shares of Western Asset Global High Income Fund Inc.  This Amendment No. 4 amends Items 3, and 5 as set forth below.

 

 

Item 3.

SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION

 

 

 

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 $85,996,494 was paid to acquire the Common Shares reported herein.


Item 5.

(a)

See rows (11) and (13) of the cover pages to this Schedule 13D/A for the aggregate number of Common Shares and percentages of the Common Shares beneficially owned by each of the Reporting Persons.  The percentages used herein are calculated based upon 44,106,706 shares of common stock outstanding as of 11/30/2019, as disclosed in the company's Form N-CSRS filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on 1/27/2020.

 

 

(b)

See rows (7) through (10) of the cover pages to this Schedule 13D/A for the number of Common Shares as to which each Reporting Person has the sole or shared power to vote or direct the vote and sole or shared power to dispose or to direct the disposition.

 

 

(c)

The transactions in the Common Shares effected since the filing of Amendment No. 4 by the Reporting Persons, which were all in the open market, are set forth in Schedule A, and are incorporated herein by reference.
