BOULDER, Colo.--([ BUSINESS WIRE ])--The Boulder Growth & Income Fund, Inc. (NYSE: BIF) announced today that a shareholder proposal to terminate the investment co-advisory agreement between the Fund and its co-advisers, Boulder Investment Advisers, L.L.C. and Stewart Investment Advisers (the "Boulder Advisers"), has been withdrawn.

This proposal was originally submitted by a shareholder, Ronald G. Olin, on October 27, 2008; it was formally withdrawn by Mr. Olin shortly thereafter.

Steve Miller, the Fund's president, said that, "Because of Mr. Olin's ongoing association with Doliver Capital Advisers, L.P. and Ralph Bradshaw, notwithstanding the withdrawal of Mr. Olin's proposal, we continue to believe that Doliver and Messrs. Olin and Bradshaw are acting as a group under federal securities laws and will continue to explore our options given their past tactics with other closed-end funds."

The Fund is a closed-end management investment company co-managed by Stewart Investment Advisers and Boulder Investment Advisers, L.L.C.
