4/A

Bank of America Corporation and its subsidiary Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Inc. jointly filed an amended Form 4 correcting two lines previously reported for trades in BlackRock Municipal Credit Alpha Portfolio, Inc. (MUNEX). The amendment sets the earliest transaction date as 09/25/2025 and clarifies the security title. The reported activity shows an indirect purchase of 4,780 shares at $12.64 followed the same day by an indirect sale of 4,780 shares at $12.68, leaving 0 shares beneficially owned after the transactions. The filing states Bank of America holds the interest indirectly through its 100% ownership of Merrill Lynch and disclaims beneficial ownership except to the extent of any pecuniary interest. The reporting parties also note that, without conceding Section 16(b) applicability, any short-swing profit potentially recoverable would be remitted to the issuer.

Bank of America Corporation und ihre Tochtergesellschaft Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Inc. haben gemeinsam ein geändertes Form 4 eingereicht, das zwei Zeilen korrigiert, die zuvor für Geschäfte in BlackRock Municipal Credit Alpha Portfolio, Inc. (MUNEX) gemeldet wurden. Die Änderung setzt das früheste Transaktionsdatum auf 09/25/2025 fest und klärt den Titel der Sicherheit. Die gemeldete Aktivität zeigt einen indirekten Kauf von 4.780 Aktien zu $12.64, gefolgt am selben Tag von einem indirekten Verkauf von 4.780 Aktien zu $12.68, wodurch nach den Transaktionen keine Aktien im wirtschaftlichen Eigentum verbleiben. Die Einreichung erklärt, dass Bank of America das Interesse indirekt durch 100% Eigentum an Merrill Lynch hält und das wirtschaftliche Eigentum außer im Falle eines finanziellen Interesses ablehnt.

Bank of America Corporation وشركتها التابعة Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Inc. قد قدّمتا بشكل مشترك Form 4 المعدل لتصحيح سطرين تم الإبلاغ عنهما سابقاً لصفقات في BlackRock Municipal Credit Alpha Portfolio, Inc. (MUNEX). يحدد التعديل تاريخ المعاملة الأقدم كـ 09/25/2025 وي clarifies عنوان الأمان. تظهر النشاطات المبلغ عنها شراءاً غير مباشر لــ 4,780 سهماً بسعر $12.64 ثم في نفس اليوم بيع غير مباشر لـ 4,780 سهماً بسعر $12.68، مما يترك 0 أسهم مملوكة وفقاً للمزايا بعد المعاملات. يذكر الإبلاغ أن بنك أوف أميركا يحتفظ بالمصلحة بشكل غير مباشر من خلال ملكيته بنسبة 100% لميريل لينش وينفي الملكية المستفيدة باستثناء أي مصلحة مالية. كما تشير الأطراف المبلغة إلى أنه، ودون قبول تطبيق البند 16(b)، أي ربح قصير المدى قابل لاسترجاع سيُعيد إلى المُصدر.

美国银行公司及其子公司美林证券、皮尔斯、芬纳与史密斯公司共同提交修改后的Form 4,以纠正先前就BlackRock Municipal Credit Alpha Portfolio, Inc. (MUNEX)交易报告中的两处错误。修改将最早交易日期设定为2025/09/25,并澄清证券标题。所报告的活动显示间接买入4,780股,价格为$12.64,同日又以$12.68的价格间接卖出4,780股,交易结束后无任何股份处于受益所有权之下。 filing 表示美国银行通过对Merrill Lynch的100%所有权间接持有该权益,并对受益所有权表示否认,除非存在任何金钱利益。报告方还指出,在不承认第16(b)条适用性的情况下,任何可能回收的短线利润将归还给发行人。

Positive
  • Amendment corrects transaction date and security title, improving disclosure clarity
  • Matched buy and sell of 4,780 shares left no residual position, simplifying ongoing reporting
  • Commitment to remit any recoverable short-swing profit reduces potential unresolved compliance exposure
Negative
  • Initial filing errors required an amendment to correct trade details
  • No beneficial ownership remains following the trades, so there is no ongoing insider stake reported

Insights

TL;DR: An amended insider report corrects trade details and shows matched buy/sell of 4,780 shares on 09/25/2025.

The amendment fixes the transaction date and security title for two entries and clarifies that the interest is held indirectly through Merrill Lynch, a wholly owned subsidiary. Correcting such metadata improves transparency about which entity exercised trading authority.

The matched purchase and sale at $12.64 and $12.68 respectively produced no retained position, reducing ongoing insider ownership disclosure. Watch for any related filings if the issuer requests recovery under Section 16(b) within the statutory period.

TL;DR: The filing includes a compliance-safe declaration about potential short-swing profit remittance.

The reporting persons explicitly state they do not concede greater-than-10% beneficial owner status and reserve that the filing is not an admission under Section 13(d). They also commit that any potential short-swing profit, if applicable, will be remitted to the issuer.

This language is a common protective formulation; investors and compliance officers should note the commitment to remit recoverable amounts and monitor whether the issuer pursues recovery or accepts the filing as corrective documentation.

Each Reporting Person disclaims beneficial ownership of the securities reported herein except to the extent of its pecuniary interest therein, if any, and this report shall not be deemed an admission that any such Reporting Person is the beneficial owner of, or has any pecuniary interest in, such securities for purposes of Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"), or for any other purpose.
2. Each Reporting Person declares that neither the filing of this statement nor anything herein shall be construed as an admission that such person is, for the purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act or any other purpose, (i) acting (or has agreed or is agreeing to act together with any other person) as a partnership, limited partnership, syndicate or other group for the purpose of acquiring, holding or disposing of securities of the Issuer or otherwise with respect to the Issuer or any securities of the Issuer or (ii) a member of any group with respect to the Issuer or any securities of the Issuer.
3. 3. Without conceding its status as a greater than 10% beneficial owner or that the reported transactions are subject to disclosure under Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act or short-swing profit recovery under Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act, the amount of profit potentially recoverable by the Issuer from the reported transactions in the event that the Reporting Persons were greater than 10% beneficial owners and the transactions were subject to Section 16(b) will be remitted to the Issuer.
