Equus Total Return, Inc. (NYSE: EQS) announces a write down of its equity investment in Infinia Corporation ("Infinia") from $17.5 million to $10.6 million. The principal reason for the write down is the recapitalization of the Infinia ownership structure related to its most recent fund raising efforts. Infinia intends to raise additional capital in the immediate future. The timing and size of successful capital raising efforts will most likely dilute the Fund's ownership which could impact the valuation of this investment. As of June 30, 2009, the Infinia investment represented approximately 24% of the Fund's total net assets.
