The following constitutes Amendment No. 4 (“Amendment No. 4”) to the Schedule 13D filed by the undersigned (the “Schedule 13D”). This Amendment No. 4 amends the Schedule 13D as specifically set forth herein.

Item 2.

Identity and Background.

Item 2 is hereby amended to add the following information:

In connection with the Agreement, defined and described in Item 4 below, Messrs. Gollehon, Peterson and Ms. Youel are no longer members of the Section 13(d) group and shall cease to be Reporting Persons immediately after the filing of this Amendment No. 4. The remaining Reporting Persons will continue filing as a group statements on Schedule 13D with respect to their beneficial ownership of securities of the Issuer to the extent required by applicable law. Each of the remaining Reporting Persons is party to the Joint Filing Agreement, as further described in Item 6 below.

Item 4.

Purpose of Transaction.

Item 4 is hereby amended to add the following information:

On July 22, 2016, Arthur D. Lipson, Robert Ferguson, Western Investment LLC, Western Investment Hedged Partners L.P., Western Investment Total Return Partners L.P., Benchmark Plus Institutional Partners L.L.C. and Benchmark Plus Management, L.L.C. (collectively, “Western”), entered into an agreement (the “Agreement”) with the Issuer and its sister funds, Advent Claymore Convertible Securities and Income Fund (“AVK”) and Advent Claymore Convertible Securities and Income Fund II (“AGC” and together with the Issuer and AVK, the “Advent Funds”). The following description of the Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Agreement, which is attached as Exhibit 99.1 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.

Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, the Issuer agreed, among other things, to: (i) within 20 days, file with the Securities and Exchange Commission an application for an exemptive order (the “Exemptive Order”) under Section 17(b) of the Investment Company Act of 1940 to permit “affiliated persons” to participate in the Tender Offer (as defined below) and (ii) as soon as commercially practicable, but within 20 days after receipt of the Exemptive Order, commence an in-kind tender offer (the “Tender Offer”) to purchase 32.5% of its outstanding common shares at a price equal to 98% of the Issuer’s NAV on the day following expiration of the Tender Offer and the consideration paid by the Issuer under the Tender Offer shall consist of a pro rata portion of each of the Issuer’s portfolio securities (subject to certain exceptions and adjustments).

In addition, pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, AGC agreed, among other things, to (i) use its commercially reasonable best efforts to commence as soon as practicable (but in no event later than September 1, 2016) and through September 30, 2018, a repurchase program (the “AGC Repurchase Program”) pursuant to which AGC will, subject to certain conditions, make open market repurchases of its common shares during such periods when the discount is 13% or greater; (ii) use its commercially reasonable best efforts to maximize the number of shares repurchased on each trading day, subject to certain restrictions, provided that AGC will not repurchase more than 2% in any calendar month and will not repurchase more than 7.5% of its outstanding shares in the AGC Repurchase Program or otherwise, unless the AGC board of trustees determines to purchase more than such amount; and (iii) post on its website each month the number of shares repurchased that month under the AGC Repurchase Program. The AGC Repurchase Program shall terminate immediately in the event that the price of AGC’s common shares represents a discount to its NAV of less than 13% on five consecutive trading days.

Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, Western agreed, among other things: (i) to withdraw (a) its nomination letter with respect to the election of trustees at the Advent Funds’ 2016 annual meetings (the “2016 Annual Meeting”), (b) its Rule 14a-8 proposal to declassify the boards of the Advent Funds, and (c) its shareholder list demand under Section 220 of the Delaware General Corporation Law; (ii) that it will not (a) nominate or recommend for election any trustees at the 2016 Annual Meeting, (b) submit any proposals at the 2016 Annual Meeting, initiate, encourage or participate in any solicitation of proxies with respect to the 2016 Annual Meeting and (c) publicly or privately encourage or support other shareholders to take any such actions, (iii) during the Standstill Period (as defined below), to cause all shares beneficially owned by it to be present for purposes of a quorum at any annual or special meeting of shareholders of the Advent Funds and to vote all shares beneficially owned by it in accordance with the recommendation of the boards of the Advent Funds and against any opposition to such recommendation and (iv) to certain customary standstill provisions, effective as of the date of the Agreement through July 22, 2021 (the “Standstill Period”). The standstill provisions generally prohibit Western from taking specified actions with respect to the Issuer and its securities, including, among others: (i) soliciting proxies or becoming a participant in any solicitation, (ii) engaging or participating in any tender, merger, or business combination or acquisition or disposition of assets of the Advent Funds, (iii) depositing securities of the Advent Funds in any voting trust, (iv) seeking or encouraging any person to submit nominations in furtherance of any contested election or removal of trustees, (v) submitting any proposal or conducting any referendum of shareholders, (vi) seeking to control or influence the board of the Advent Funds and (vii) entering into any agreement, encouraging or soliciting any person to undertake such activities.

The Agreement terminates on the earliest of (i) July 22, 2021, (ii) if the Issuer fails to complete the Tender Offer within sixty (60) days after the earlier of the receipt of the Exemptive Order or the nine month anniversary of the Agreement (subject to certain extensions), and (iii) such other date established by mutual written agreement between Western and the Advent Funds.

Item 6.
