If you asked Bond Counsel what this means, they would tell you to ask the bank, who would tell you to ask the trustee who would tell you to ask the US Treasury. I think it means that they found a way to "get" some "new money". They are taxable because they do not qualify to be tax-exempt.

Good for the parties to the transaction.
