The TPZ monthly distributions will be paid on Sept. 30, 2013,
Oct. 31, 2013 and Nov. 29, 2013 to stockholders of record on the

monthly distributions at the time of payment in the applicable
Section 19(a) Notice.
You should not draw any conclusions about TPZ’s investment
performance from the amount of these distributions or from the
terms of TPZ’s distribution policy.
TPZ estimates that it has distributed more than its income and
capital gains; therefore, a portion of the distribution may be a
return of capital. A return of capital may occur, for example, when
some or all of the money that you invested in TPZ is paid back to
you. A return of capital distribution does not necessarily reflect
TPZ’s investment performance and should not be confused with
“yield” or “income.”
The amounts and sources of distributions TPZ reports are only
estimates and are not being provided for tax reporting purposes.
The actual amounts and sources of the amounts for tax reporting
purposes will depend upon TPZ’s investment experience during the
remainder of its fiscal year and may be subject to changes based on
tax regulations. TPZ will send you a Form 1099-DIV for the calendar
year that will tell you how to report these distributions for
federal income tax purposes.
