DALLAS, Dec. 16, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- The Cushing® MLP & Infrastructure
Total Return Fund (NYSE: SRV) and The Cushing® NextGen Infrastructure
Income Fund (NYSE: SZC), each a non-diversified, closed-end
management investment company (the "Funds," and each a
"Fund"), announced today that effective on or about
December 31, 2021, Jerry V. Swank will retire and will no longer
serve as portfolio manager for the Funds or as Chief Executive
Officer and President of the Funds. The remaining members of each
Fund's portfolio management team will continue to be primarily

Executive Officer and President of the Funds.
Mr. Blake Nelson, chief financial
officer of Cushing Asset Management, will succeed Mr. Alban as
Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer of the Funds.
Mr. Swank will continue to serve as a Trustee of the Funds, and
due to his continuing ownership interest in Cushing Asset
Management will continue to be deemed an "Interested Trustee" of
the Trust.
Brian R. Bruce, Lead Independent
Trustee of the Funds said, "On behalf of our entire Board of
Trustees, I want to thank Jerry
Swank for his service and leadership over the years. Since
founding Cushing Asset Management and the launch of the first
Cushing closed-end fund nearly 15
years ago, Jerry has built a culture of strong investment
performance. The transition plan implemented by Jerry has
positioned Cushing Asset Management and the Funds for further
success under the capable leadership of John Alban, as Chief Executive Officer of
Cushing Asset Management and the Funds, and John Musgrave and Saket
Kumar, as Co-Chief Investment Officers of Cushing Asset
Management and lead portfolio managers of SRV and SZC,
