Saba Capital Management, L.P. and certain associated parties (collectively “Saba” or “we”) today announced that it has entered into a cooperation agreement with Franklin Templeton Fund Adviser, LLC (formerly known as Legg Mason Partners Fund Advisor, LLC) and the following funds that it advises: ClearBridge MLP and Midstream Fund Inc. (NYSE: CEM), ClearBridge MLP and Midstream Total Return Fund Inc. (NYSE: CTR), ClearBridge Energy Midstream Opportunity Fund Inc. (NYSE: EMO), and LMP Capital and Income Fund Inc.
