Existing holders who do not subscribe face dilution, but the discount gives them a chance to buy in below market. NMZ is issuing transferable rights to buy one new share for every six held, priced at 95% of the five-day average NYSE close through the December 2, 2026 expiration, or 90% of NAV if that is higher. Because the Advisor is absorbing all offering expenses, the fund keeps the full proceeds. The raise is aimed at putting money to work in high-yield municipal bonds at attractive valuations and spreading fixed costs over a bigger asset base. With the fund trading near its 52-week low, the discount pricing matters more than usual for holders deciding whether to exercise.
