MTP is a fixed rate form of preferred stock with a mandatory
redemption period. By issuing MTP, the funds seek to take advantage
of the current historically low interest rate environment to lock
in an attractive tax-exempt cost of leverage for a period as long
as the term of the MTP. Issuing MTP helps the funds mitigate the
risk of a significant increase in their leverage costs should
short-term interest rates rise.
