It is just one more small way we are working to keep you better informed about your investment in the Trust.


DEAR SHAREHOLDER (Unaudited)	November 30, 2024

We thank you for your investment in the Guggenheim Taxable Municipal Bond & Investment Grade Debt Trust (the “Trust”). This report covers the Trust’s performance for the six-month period ended November 30, 2024 (the “Reporting Period”).

To learn more about the Trust’s performance and investment strategy, we encourage you to read the Economic and Market Overview and the Management’s Discussion of Trust Performance, which begin on page 5. There you will find information on Guggenheim’s investment philosophy, views on the economy and market environment, and information about the factors that impacted the Trust’s performance during the Reporting Period.

The Trust’s primary investment objective is to provide current income with a secondary objective of long-term capital appreciation.

All Trust returns cited—whether based on net asset value (“NAV”) or market price—assume the reinvestment of all distributions. For the Reporting Period, the Trust provided a total return based on market price of 2.52% and a total return based on NAV of 6.59%. At the end of the Reporting Period, the Trust’s market price of $15.90 per share represented a premium of 1.40% to its NAV of $15.68 per share.

Past performance is not a guarantee of future results. All NAV returns include the deduction of management fees, operating expenses, and all other Trust expenses. The market price of the Trust’s shares fluctuates from time to time, and it may be higher or lower than the Trust’s NAV.

During the Reporting Period, the Trust paid a monthly distribution of $0.12573 per share. The most recent distribution represents an annualized distribution rate of 9.49% based on the Trust’s closing market price of $15.90 per share at the end of the Reporting Period.

The Trust’s distribution rate is not constant and the amount of distributions, when declared by the Trust’s Board of Trustees, is subject to change. There is no guarantee of any future distribution or that the current returns and distribution rate will be maintained. Please see the Distributions to Shareholders & Annualized Distribution Rate table on page 28, and Note 2(g) on page 69 for more information on distributions for the period.

We encourage shareholders to consider the opportunity to reinvest their distributions from the Trust through the Dividend Reinvestment Plan (“DRIP”), which is described on page 93 of this report. When shares trade at a discount to NAV, the DRIP takes advantage of the discount by reinvesting the monthly dividend distribution in common shares of the Trust purchased in the market at a price less than NAV. Conversely, when the market price of the Trust’s common shares is at a premium above NAV, the DRIP reinvests participants’ dividends in newly issued common shares at the greater of NAV per share or 95%

^GBABl ^{GUGGENHEIM TAXABLE MUNICIPAL BOND & INVESTMENT GRADE DEBT TRUST SEMIANNUAL REPORT}l ³


DEAR SHAREHOLDER (Unaudited) continued	November 30, 2024

of the market price per share. The DRIP provides a cost-effective means to accumulate additional shares and enjoy the benefits of compounding returns over time. The DRIP effectively provides an income averaging technique for shareholders to accumulate a larger number of Trust shares when the market price is depressed than when the price is higher.

We appreciate your investment and look forward to serving your investment needs in the future. For the most up-to-date information on your investment, please visit the Trust’s website at guggenheiminvestments.com/gbab.

ECONOMIC AND MARKET OVERVIEW (Unaudited)	November 30, 2024

The U.S. economy has solid momentum heading into 2025, but the policy outlook elevates uncertainty. Recent economic data have been positive: Household income appears on a firmer footing after upward revisions and real labor income continues to expand, indicating a runway for consumer spending. Household balance sheets are also benefiting from rising asset prices, creating a positive wealth effect. While disinflationary progress has stalled in recent months, fundamentals point to a slowdown in inflation, with wage pressures easing and housing inflation moderating. Relief for rate sensitive segments of the economy looked poised to continue as the U.S. Federal Reserve (the “Fed”) proceeded toward a more neutral policy setting.

Investors are now contending with how the evolving policy landscape will alter the pre-election baseline for gradually lower growth, inflation, and interest rates. For the immediate future, the most important factor from the election outcome is likely to be a boost to both consumer and business sentiment, aided by expectations for deregulation and further tax cuts. Post-election surveys have already shown notably increased optimism for the economic outlook, which should help support consumption, investment, and hiring in the coming months.

Looking beyond the immediate sentiment boost, the outlook becomes more uncertain and depends on the ultimate policy mix of the new administration. We see a modest boost to growth from potential deregulation and fiscal policy. Delivering on deregulatory promises could boost productivity growth, though this could take some time to develop. On the other hand, while some of the administration’s proposed policies, such as tariffs and immigration, could hinder growth if fully implemented, our outlook already anticipates slower immigration moderating growth in 2025. Additional restrictions, however, could further weigh on economic expansion. Immigration activity at the border is already down over 70 percent from its 2023 peak, which may slow both labor supply and consumption in coming quarters.

Altogether, we see moderate growth in the U.S. economy in 2025 as these policy shifts play out. Economic fundamentals remain solid, with strong household and corporate balance sheets. The Fed appears likely to ease policy further, but tariffs or tighter immigration could slow the pace of rate cuts by interrupting the disinflationary trend. We believe this is an ideal environment for active fixed-income management, with still elevated yields offering return potential, solid corporate sector fundamentals, and opportunities presented by significant dispersion among credits and sectors that may continue to shift under a new policy environment.

The opinions and forecasts expressed may not actually come to pass. This information is subject to change at any time, based on market and other conditions, and should not be construed as a recommendation of any specific security or strategy.

What factors contributed or detracted from the Trust’s Performance during the Reporting Period?

During the Reporting Period, the Trust saw positive performance from income and credit spread tightening. Earned income contributed the most to performance as the Trust continued to prioritize higher-quality credits with attractive income/yield profiles. Duration drove relative outperformance as the yield curve shifted lower, with yields on 2-year and 10-year Treasurys finishing 72 basis points and 33 basis points lower, respectively. Credit spreads also added to overall performance as spreads on the Bloomberg Taxable Municipal Bond and Bloomberg U.S. Corporate Investment Grade Bond Indices tightened by 5 basis points and 7 basis points, respectively.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION OF
TRUST PERFORMANCE (Unaudited) continued	November 30, 2024

Discuss the Trust’s Use of Leverage

At the end of the Reporting Period, the Trust’s leverage was approximately 21% of Managed Assets, compared with approximately 24% at the beginning of the Reporting Period.

The Trust currently employs financial leverage through reverse repurchase agreements with eight counterparties.

One purpose of leverage is to fund the purchase of additional securities that may provide increased income and potentially greater appreciation to common shareholders than could be achieved from an unlevered portfolio. Leverage may result in greater NAV volatility and entails more downside risk than an unleveraged portfolio.

Given positive total returns over the Reporting Period, leverage benefited performance.

Investments in Investment Funds (as defined below in the Risks and Other Considerations section) frequently expose the Trust to an additional layer of financial leverage and the associated risks, such as the magnified effect of any losses.

How did the Trust use derivatives during the Reporting Period?

The Trust had minimal exposure to derivatives during the Reporting Period. The Trust continued to utilize modestly-sized credit default swaps to hedge broader credit markets. These credit hedges detracted from performance given the strong credit market returns during the Reporting Period. Additionally, the Trust continued to hold curve caps and interest rate swaps to hedge against moves lower in the yield curve; those positions were slight detractors during the Reporting Period. Foreign currency forwards used to hedge non-USD exposures benefited from overall performance.

How was the Trust positioned at the end of the Reporting Period?

The Reporting Period exhibited a period of unprecedented volatility that has left a wide range of possible outcomes going forward. We believe the next major policy moves are likely to provide strong tailwinds for fixed income. We continue to expect elevated volatility in the economy and markets, as well as a policy response to these conditions. This argues for the importance of diversification in asset allocation remains crucial. The heightened probability of an economic slowdown over the next 6-12 months, as indicated by our models continues to guide our more defensive and conservative positioning within the Trust, prioritizing quality (which takes multiple forms, including focusing on industry market leaders, more conservatively positioned balance sheets, stronger credit stipulations, and more creditor-friendly structures) and industries that may be more resilient to economic downturns.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION OF
TRUST PERFORMANCE (Unaudited) continued	November 30, 2024

Though the recent tightening of credit spreads has likely pulled forward some of the expected future total return potential of parts of fixed income, we still view the go-forward valuation proposition of fixed income as attractive at current levels and sourceable income levels in high-quality credit as historically high relative to recent history. The Trust’s strategy has remained consistent by upgrading the credit profile and seeking opportunities with strong income generation and capital appreciation potential. We have grown our exposure in high quality sectors, particularly in Agency residential mortgage-backed securities (“RMBS”) and in structured credit investments such as non-Agency RMBS, senior tranches of collateralized loan obligations, and commercial asset-backed securities.

Index Definitions

Indices are unmanaged and reflect no expenses. It is not possible to invest directly in an index.

The Bloomberg Municipal Bond Index is considered representative of the broad market for investment grade, tax-exempt municipal bonds with a maturity of at least one year.

The Bloomberg Taxable Municipal Index tracks performance of investment-grade fixed income securities issued by state and local governments whose income is not exempt from tax, issued generally to finance a project or activity that does not meet certain “public purpose/use” requirements.

The Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index is a broad-based flagship benchmark that measures the investment grade, U.S. dollar-denominated, fixed-rate taxable bond market, including U.S. Treasuries, government-related and corporate securities, mortgage-backed securities or “MBS” (agency fixed-rate and hybrid adjustable-rate mortgage, or “ARM”, pass-throughs), ABS, and commercial mortgage-backed securities (“CMBS”) (agency and non-agency).

The Bloomberg U.S. Corporate High Yield Index measures the U.S. dollar-denominated, high yield, fixed-rate corporate bond market. Securities are classified as high yield if the middle rating of Moody’s, Fitch, and S&P is Ba1/BB +/BB + or below.

The Credit Suisse Leveraged Loan Index is an index designed to mirror the investable universe of the U.S.-dollar-denominated leveraged loan market.

The ICE Bank of America Asset Backed Security Master BBB-AA Index is a subset of the ICE Bank of America U.S. Fixed Rate Asset Backed Securities Index including all securities rated AA1 through BBB3, inclusive.

The ICE Bank of America Build America Bond Index is designed to track the performance of U.S. dollar-denominated Build America Bonds publicly issued by U.S. states and territories, and their political subdivisions, in the U.S. market.

The Standard & Poor’s 500 (“S&P 500”) Index is a capitalization-weighted index of 500 stocks designed to measure the performance of the broad economy, representing all major industries and is considered a representation of U.S. stock market.

Risks and Other Considerations

The views expressed in this report reflect those of the portfolio managers only through the report period as stated on the cover. These views are subject to change at any time, based on market and other conditions and should not be construed as a recommendation of any kind. The material may also include forward looking statements that involve risk and uncertainty, and there is no guarantee that any predictions will come to pass.

There can be no assurance that the Trust will achieve its investment objectives. The net asset value and market price of the Trust’s shares will fluctuate, sometimes independently, based on market, economic, issuer-specific and other factors affecting the Trust and its investments. The market price of Trust shares will either be above (premium) or below (discount) their net asset value. Although the net asset value of Trust shares is often considered in determining whether to purchase or sell Trust shares, whether investors will realize gains or losses upon the sale of Trust shares will depend upon whether the market price of Trust shares at the time of sale is above or below the investor’s purchase price, taking into account transaction costs for the shares, and is not directly dependent upon the Trust’s net asset value. Market price movements of Trust shares are thus material to investors and may result in losses, even when net asset value has increased. The Trust is designed for long-term investors; investors should not view the Trust as a vehicle for trading purposes.

Risk is inherent in all investing, including the loss of your entire principal. Therefore, before investing you should consider the risks carefully. Investors should be aware that the Trust’s investments and a shareholder’s investment in the Trust are subject to various risk factors, including investment risk, which could result in the loss of the entire principal amount that you invest, reduced yield and/or income and sudden and substantial losses. Certain of these risk factors are described below. Please see the Trust’s Prospectus, Statement of Additional Information (SAI), most recent annual report on Form N-CSR and guggenheiminvestments.com/gbab for a more detailed description of the risks of investing in the Trust. Shareholders also may access the Trust’s Prospectus, SAI and most recent annual report on the EDGAR Database on the Securities and Exchange Commission’s website at www.sec.gov.

The fact that a particular risk below is not specifically identified as being heightened under current conditions does not mean that the risk is not greater than under normal conditions.

^GBABl ^{GUGGENHEIM TAXABLE MUNICIPAL BOND & INVESTMENT GRADE DEBT TRUST SEMIANNUAL REPORT}l ¹¹


MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION OF

Below Investment Grade Securities Risk.

The Trust may invest in Income Securities rated below-investment grade or, if unrated, determined by GPIM to be of comparable credit quality, which are commonly referred to as “high-yield” or “junk” bonds. Investment in securities of below-investment grade quality involves substantial risk of loss, the risk of which is particularly acute under adverse market or economic conditions. Income Securities of below-investment grade quality are predominantly speculative with respect to the issuer’s continuing capacity to pay interest and repay principal when due and therefore involve additional and heightened risks compared to investment grade bonds, including a greater risk of default or decline in market value or income due to adverse economic and issuer-specific developments, such as financial condition, operating results and outlook and real or perceived adverse economic and competitive industry conditions. Accordingly, the performance of the Trust and a shareholder’s investment in the Trust may be adversely affected if an issuer is unable to pay interest and repay principal, either on time or at all. Issuers of below-investment grade securities are not perceived to be as strong financially as those with higher credit ratings. Securities of below investment grade quality may experience greater price volatility than higher-rated securities of similar maturity. Generally, the risks associated with below-investment grade securities are heightened during times of weakening economic conditions or rising interest rates (particularly for issuers that are highly leveraged).

Corporate Bond Risk. Corporate bonds are debt obligations issued by corporations and other business entities. Corporate bonds may be either secured or unsecured. Collateral used for secured debt includes real property, machinery, equipment, accounts receivable, stocks, bonds or notes. If a bond is unsecured, it is known as a debenture. Bondholders, as creditors, have a prior legal claim over common and preferred stockholders as to both income and assets of the corporation for the principal and interest due them and may have a prior claim over other creditors if liens or mortgages are involved. Interest on corporate bonds may be fixed or floating, or the bonds may be zero coupons. Interest on corporate bonds is typically paid semi-annually and is fully taxable to the bondholder. Corporate bonds contain elements of both interest-rate risk and credit risk and are subject to the risks associated with other debt securities, among other risks. The market value of a corporate bond generally is expected to rise and fall inversely with interest rates. The market value of a corporate bond is affected by factors directly related to the issuer, such as its credit rating, investors’ perceptions of the creditworthiness of the issuer, the issuer’s financial condition and performance, perceptions of the issuer in the marketplace, performance of management of the issuer, the issuer’s capital structure and use of financial leverage and demand for the issuer’s goods and services, as well as general market and economic conditions. There is a risk that the issuers of corporate bonds may not be able to meet their obligations on interest or principal payments at the time called for by an instrument or at all. Depending on the nature of the seniority provisions, a senior corporate bond may be junior to other credit securities of the issuer, which increases risks associated with the bond. Corporate bonds of below investment grade quality are often high risk and have speculative characteristics and may be particularly susceptible to adverse issuer-specific and other developments.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION OF
TRUST PERFORMANCE (Unaudited) continued	November 30, 2024

Short Sales Risk. The Trust may make short sales of securities. A short sale is a transaction in which the Trust sells a borrowed security. If the price of the security sold short increases between the time of the short sale and the time the Trust replaces the borrowed security, the Trust will incur a loss. Although the Trust’s gain is limited to the price at which it sold the security short, its potential loss is theoretically unlimited.

Credit Risk. The Trust could lose money if the issuer or guarantor of a debt instrument, a counterparty to a derivatives transaction or other transaction or other obligor to the Trust is unable or unwilling, or perceived (whether by market participants, rating agencies, pricing services or otherwise) to be unable or unwilling, to pay interest or repay principal on time or defaults or otherwise fails to meet obligations. This risk is heightened in market environments where interest rates are changing, notably when rates are rising or when refinancing obligations becomes more challenging. Also, the issuer, guarantor or counterparty may suffer adverse changes in its financial condition, the value of its assets, prospective earnings, demands for its goods and services or be adversely affected by economic, political or social conditions that could lower the financial condition or credit quality (or the market’s perception of the financial condition or credit quality) of the issuer, instrument, guarantor or counterparty, leading to greater volatility in the price of the instrument and in shares of the Trust. Although credit quality may not accurately reflect the true credit risk of an instrument, credit quality (and credit risks) are subject to change and a change in the credit quality rating of an instrument or an issuer can have a rapid, adverse effect on the instrument’s value, price volatility and liquidity and make it more difficult for the Trust to sell at an advantageous price or time. The risk of the occurrence of these types of events is heightened in market environments where interest rates are changing, notably when rates are rising. High yield or below investment grade securities are particularly subject to credit risk.

Interest Rate Risk. Fixed-income and other debt instruments are subject to the possibility that interest rates could change (or are expected to change). Changes in interest rates (or the expectation of such changes) can be sudden, significant and frequent and may adversely affect the Trust’s investments in these instruments, such as the value or liquidity of, and income generated by, the investments or increase risks associated with such investments, such as credit or default risks. In addition, changes in interest rates can have unpredictable effects on markets and can adversely affect the Trust’s yield, income and performance. Generally, when interest rates increase, the values of fixed-income and other debt instruments decline, and when interest rates decrease, the values of fixed-income and other debt instruments rise. Changes in interest rates also adversely affect the yield generated by certain fixed income and other debt securities (“Income Securities”) or result in the issuance of lower yielding Income Securities. The U.S. Federal Reserve Board (“Federal Reserve”) has changed interest rates recently in response to economic conditions, including inflation rates. The Federal Reserve’s actions present heightened risks to fixed-income and debt instruments, and such risks could be even further heightened if these actions are unexpectedly or suddenly reversed or are ineffective in achieving their desired outcomes. It is difficult to accurately predict how long, and whether, the Federal Reserve’s current

^GBABl ^{GUGGENHEIM TAXABLE MUNICIPAL BOND & INVESTMENT GRADE DEBT TRUST SEMIANNUAL REPORT}l ¹³


MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION OF
TRUST PERFORMANCE (Unaudited) continued	November 30, 2024

stance on interest rates will persist and the impact these actions will have on the economy and the Trust’s investments and the markets where they trade. The Federal Reserve’s monetary policy is subject to change at any time and potentially frequently based on a variety of market and economic conditions.

Current Fixed-Income and Debt Market Conditions. Fixed-income and debt market conditions are highly unpredictable and some parts of the market are subject to dislocations. In response to market and economic conditions, governmental authorities may implement significant fiscal and monetary policy changes, including changing interest rates and implementation of quantitative tightening or easing. These and other fiscal and monetary policy actions present heightened risks, particularly to fixed-income and debt instruments, and such risks could be even further heightened if these actions are ineffective in achieving their desired outcomes or are quickly reversed. It is difficult to accurately predict changes in the Federal Reserve’s monetary policies and the effect of any such changes or policies. Certain economic conditions and market environments will expose fixed-income and debt instruments to heightened volatility and reduced liquidity, which can impact the Trust’s investments and may negatively impact the Trust’s characteristics, which in turn would impact performance.

Leverage Risk. The Trust’s use of leverage, through borrowings or instruments such as derivatives, causes the Trust to be more volatile and riskier than if it had not been leveraged. Although the use of leverage by the Trust may create an opportunity for increased return, it also results in additional risks and can magnify the effect of any losses and may be subject to increased borrowing rates. The effect of leverage in a declining market is likely to cause a greater decline in the net asset value of the Trust than if the Trust were not leveraged, which may result in a greater decline in the market price of the Trust shares. There can be no assurance that a leveraging strategy will be implemented or that it will be successful during any period during which it is employed. When the cost of leverage is no longer favorable, or when the Trust is otherwise required to reduce its leverage, the Trust may not be able to maintain distributions at historical levels and common shareholders will bear any costs associated with selling portfolio securities. The Trust’s total leverage, and associated borrowing costs, may vary significantly over time. To the extent the Trust increases its amount of leverage outstanding, it will be more exposed to these risks and pay greater borrowing costs.

Valuation Risk. The Trust may invest without limitation in unregistered securities, restricted securities and securities for which there is no readily available trading market. It may be difficult for the Trust to purchase and sell a particular investment at the price at which it has been valued by the Trust for purposes of the Trust’s net asset value, causing the Trust to be unable to realize what the Trust believes should be the price of the investment. The Trust’s ability to sell an instrument under favorable conditions may also be negatively impacted by, among other things, other market participants selling the same or similar instruments at the same time or legal restrictions on the instrument’s resale. Valuation of portfolio investments may be difficult, such as during periods of market turmoil or reduced liquidity, and for investments that may, for example, trade infrequently or irregularly. In these and other circumstances, an investment may be valued using fair value methodologies, which are inherently subjective, reflect good faith judgments based on available information and may not

¹⁴l ^GBABl ^{GUGGENHEIM TAXABLE MUNICIPAL BOND & INVESTMENT GRADE DEBT TRUST SEMIANNUAL REPORT}


MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION OF
TRUST PERFORMANCE (Unaudited) continued	November 30, 2024

accurately estimate the price at which the Trust could sell the investment at that time. Based on its investment strategies, a significant portion of the Trust’s investments can be difficult to value and thus particularly prone to the foregoing risks.

Liquidity Risk. The Trust may invest in municipal securities and other investments that are, at the time of investment, illiquid or become illiquid. Illiquid investments are securities that cannot be disposed of within seven days in the ordinary course of business at approximately the value that the Trust values the securities. Illiquid investments may trade at a discount from comparable, more liquid securities and may be subject to wide fluctuations in market value. The Trust may be subject to significant delays in disposing of illiquid investments. Accordingly, the Trust may be forced to sell these investments at less than fair market value or may not be able to sell them when the Adviser believes it is desirable to do so. If the Trust is unable to sell an investment at its desired time, the Trust may miss other investment opportunities while it holds investments it would prefer to sell, which could adversely affect the Trust’s performance. Illiquid investments also may entail registration expenses and other transaction costs that are higher than those for liquid investments. Dislocations or unfavorable conditions in certain parts of markets may result in reduced liquidity for certain investments. Liquidity of financial markets may also be affected by government intervention, such as the legal restrictions on certain financial instruments’ resale. In addition, the liquidity of any Trust investment may change significantly as a result of market, economic, trading, issuer-specific and other factors.

Management Risk. The Trust is actively managed, which means that investment decisions are made based on GPIM’s investment views. There is no guarantee that the investment views will produce the desired results or expected returns, causing the Trust to fail to meet its investment objective or underperform its benchmark index or funds with similar investment objectives and strategies.

Market Risk. The value of, or income generated by, the investments held by the Trust are subject to the possibility of rapid and unpredictable fluctuation, and loss. The value of certain investments (e.g., equity securities) tends to fluctuate more dramatically over the shorter term than do the value of other asset classes. These movements may result from factors affecting individual companies or issuers or particular industries, or from broader influences, including real or perceived changes in prevailing interest rates, changes in inflation or expectations about inflation, investor confidence or economic, political (including geopolitical), social or financial market conditions, tariffs and trade disruptions, recession, changes in currency rates, increased instability or general uncertainty, extreme weather, natural/environmental or man-made disasters, cyber attacks, terrorism, governmental or quasigovernmental actions, public health emergencies (such as the spread of infectious diseases, pandemics and epidemics), debt crises, actual or threatened war or other armed conflicts (such as the escalated conflict in the Middle East and the ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict and its risk of expansion or collateral economic and other effects) or ratings downgrade, and other similar types of events, each of which may be temporary or last for extended periods. Many economies and markets have experienced high inflation rates in recent periods. Administrative changes, policy reform and/ or changes in law or governmental regulations can result in expropriation or nationalization of the

^GBABl ^{GUGGENHEIM TAXABLE MUNICIPAL BOND & INVESTMENT GRADE DEBT TRUST SEMIANNUAL REPORT}l ¹⁵


MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION OF
TRUST PERFORMANCE (Unaudited) continued	November 30, 2024

investments of a company in which the Trust invests. In addition, adverse changes in one sector or industry or with respect to a particular company could negatively impact companies in other sectors or industries or increase market volatility as a result of the interconnected nature of economies and markets and thus negatively affect the Trust’s performance. For example, developments in the banking or financial services sectors (or one or more companies operating in these sectors) could adversely impact a wide range of companies and issuers. These types of adverse developments could negatively affect the Trust’s performance or operations. It may be difficult for the market to assess the immediate impact of an event on an issuer or security due to uncertainty that may surround such events; the impact of such an event on a security’s valuation may be delayed.

Municipal Securities Risk. The Trust’s holdings of municipal securities could be significantly affected by events that affect the municipal bond market, which could include unfavorable legislative, tax, political or other developments, adverse changes in the financial conditions of issuers of municipal securities, or other actual or perceived changes in economic, social, or public health conditions, the occurrence of natural disasters, or other events impacting markets and/or specific states and issuers. The amount of public information available about municipal securities is generally less than that for corporate equities or bonds. The secondary market for municipal securities also tends to be less well-developed or liquid than many other securities markets, which may adversely affect the Trust’s ability to sell such securities at prices approximating those at which the Trust may currently value them. In addition, municipal securities are subject to credit and interest rate risks and state and municipal governments that issue such securities are subject to experiencing significant economic and financial stress and may not be able to satisfy their obligations. Issuers of municipal securities might seek protection under bankruptcy laws. In the event of bankruptcy of such an issuer, holders of municipal securities could experience delays in collecting principal and interest and such holders may not be able to collect all principal and interest to which they are entitled. Legislative developments may result in changes to the laws relating to municipal bankruptcies. The income, value and/or risk of municipal securities is often correlated to specific project or other revenue sources, which may be insufficient to satisfy the obligations. Municipal securities can be negatively affected by demographic trends, such as population shifts or changing tastes and values, or increasing vacancies or declining rents or property values resulting from legal, cultural, technological, global or local economic developments, as well as reduced demand for properties, revenues, goods or services. Municipalities and municipal projects that rely directly or indirectly on federal funding mechanisms may be negatively affected by constraints of the federal government budget. Each of the foregoing may adversely affect the Trust’s investments in municipal securities. To the extent that the Trust invests a significant portion of its assets in securities or other obligations of particular municipalities or states, the Trust will be more sensitive to adverse economic, business or political developments affecting such municipalities or states.

When the Trust invests a substantial amount of its assets in municipal securities issued in specific states, such as in California and Texas, its performance will be particularly susceptible to the ability of the issuers of that state to continue to make principal and interest payments on their securities, which, in turn, depends on economic and other conditions within each state. Many complex factors

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION OF

may influence California’s economy and finances, including, but not limited to: (i) the performance of the high technology, trade, manufacturing, entertainment, government, agriculture, tourism, construction, and services industries; (ii) developments in the national and California economies; (iii) the collection of revenues above or below projections; (iv) a delay in, or an inability of, California to implement budget solutions as a result of, among other things, costs deferred in prior years to balance budgets or costs related to current or future litigation; (v) an inability to implement expenditure reductions; (vi) natural disasters, such as wildfires, droughts, earthquakes, flood and changing climate; (vii) actions performed by the federal government, including, but not limited to, disallowances, audits, and changes in aid levels; and (viii) the high level of unfunded pensions and other debt obligations. Additionally, Texas’s economy and finances may be affected by a variety of factors, including, but not limited to: (i) the performance of the oil and gas industry, including drilling production, refining, chemical and energy-related manufacturing, the high technology manufacturing industry, including manufacturing of computers, electronics, and telecommunications equipment, and international trade; and (ii) developments in the national and Texas economies.

These or other adverse changes or developments may cause unanticipated adverse results on the fiscal and economic status of California or Texas or municipal issuers in any of these states. Any such change(s) may adversely impact cash flows, expenditures, or revenues of California or Texas municipal issuers, or otherwise negatively impact the current or anticipated financial situation of California or Texas or their respective municipalities, which in turn could hurt the Trust’s performance.

As of the time of this report, the Trust held a portion of its assets in California as indicated in the Schedule of Investments. It is difficult to assess at this point whether the recent California wildfires will impact the value of the Trust’s holdings.

Build America Bonds (“BABs”) Risk. BABs were an alternative form of financing to state and local governments whose primary means for accessing the capital markets had been through issuance of tax-free municipal bonds. The BABs market is smaller and less diverse than the broader municipal securities market. In addition, because the relevant provisions of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 were not extended, bonds issued after December 31, 2010 cannot qualify as BABs. It is uncertain whether Congress will renew the program to permit issuance of new Build America Bonds. As a result, the number of available BABs is limited, which may negatively affect the value of BABs. In addition, there can be no assurance that BABs will continue to be actively traded. It is difficult to predict the extent to which a market for such bonds will continue, meaning that BABs may experience greater illiquidity than other municipal obligations.

Special Risks Related to Certain Municipal Securities. The Trust may invest in municipal leases and certificates of participation in such leases, which involve special risks not normally associated with general obligations or revenue bonds. Leases and installment purchase or conditional sale contracts (which normally provide for title to the leased asset to pass eventually to the governmental issuer) have evolved as a means for governmental issuers to acquire property and equipment without

^GBABl ^{GUGGENHEIM TAXABLE MUNICIPAL BOND & INVESTMENT GRADE DEBT TRUST SEMIANNUAL REPORT}l ¹⁷


MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION OF
TRUST PERFORMANCE (Unaudited) continued	November 30, 2024

meeting the constitutional and statutory requirements for the issuance of debt. The debt issuance limitations are deemed to be inapplicable because of the inclusion in many leases or contracts of “non-appropriation” clauses that relieve the governmental issuer of any obligation to make future payments under the lease or contract unless money is appropriated for such purpose by the appropriate legislative body on a yearly or other periodic basis. In addition, such leases or contracts may be subject to the temporary abatement of payments in the event the governmental issuer is prevented from maintaining occupancy of the leased premises or utilizing the leased equipment.

Taxable Municipal Securities Risk. While interest earned on municipal securities is generally not subject to federal tax, any interest earned on taxable municipal securities is fully taxable at the federal level and may be subject to tax at the state level. Additionally, litigation, legislation or other political events, local business or economic conditions or the bankruptcy of the issuer could have a significant effect on the ability of an issuer of municipal securities to make payments of principal and/or interest. Political changes and uncertainties in the municipal market related to taxation, legislative changes or the rights of municipal security holders can significantly affect municipal securities. Because many securities are issued to finance similar projects, especially those relating to education, health care, transportation and utilities, conditions in those sectors can affect the overall municipal market. In addition, changes in the financial condition of an individual municipal issuer can affect the overall municipal market.

Debt Instruments Risk. The value of the Trust’s investments in debt instruments (including bonds issued by non-profit entities, municipal conduits and project finance corporations) depends on the continuing ability of the debt issuers to meet their obligations for the payment of interest and principal when due. The ability of debt issuers to make timely payments of interest and principal can be affected by a variety of developments and changes in legal, political, market, economic and other conditions. Investments in debt instruments present certain risks, including credit, interest rate, liquidity and prepayment and extension risks and may include risks associated with below investment grade investments. Issuers that rely directly or indirectly on government funding mechanisms or non-profit statutes, may be negatively affected by actions of the government, including reductions in government spending, increases in tax rates, and changes in fiscal policy. The value of a debt instrument may decline for many reasons that directly relate to the issuer, such as a change in the demand for the issuer’s goods or services, or a decline in the issuer’s performance, earnings or assets. In addition, changes in the financial condition of an individual issuer can affect the value and overall market for such instruments. The risk of the occurrence of these types of unfavorable events is heightened in market environments where interest rates are changing, notably when they are rising. The income generated by debt instruments can also be adversely affected as a result of the occurrence of these types of events or conditions.

Municipal Conduit Bond Risk. Municipal conduit bonds, also referred to as private activity bonds or industrial revenue bonds, are bonds issued by state and local governments or other entities for the purpose of financing the projects of certain private enterprises. Unlike municipal bonds,

¹⁸l ^GBABl ^{GUGGENHEIM TAXABLE MUNICIPAL BOND & INVESTMENT GRADE DEBT TRUST SEMIANNUAL REPORT}


MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION OF
TRUST PERFORMANCE (Unaudited) continued	November 30, 2024

municipal conduit bonds are not backed by the full faith, credit or general taxing power of the issuing governmental entity. Rather, issuances of municipal conduit bonds are backed solely by revenues of the private enterprise involved. Municipal conduit bonds are therefore subject to heightened credit risk, as the private enterprise involved can have a different credit profile than the issuing governmental entity. Municipal conduit bonds may be negatively impacted by conditions affecting either the general credit of the private enterprise or the project itself. Factors such as competitive pricing, construction delays, or lack of demand for or use of the project could cause project revenues to fall short of projections, and defaults could occur. Municipal conduit bonds tend to have longer terms and thus are more susceptible to interest rate risk.

Project Finance Risk. Project finance is a type of financing commonly used for infrastructure, industry, and public service projects. In a project finance arrangement, the cash flow generated by the project is used to repay lenders while the project’s assets, rights and interest are held as secondary collateral. Investors involved in project finance face heightened technology risk, operational risk, and market risk because the cash flow generated by the project, rather than the revenues of the company behind the project, will repay investors. In addition, because of the project-specific nature of such arrangements, the Trust face the risk of loss of investment if the company behind the project determines not to complete it. To the extent that the Trust invests a significant portion of its assets in securities that finance similar projects, such as those relating to education or schools, healthcare or hospitals, housing, utilities, or water and sewers, the Fund will be more sensitive to adverse economic, business or political developments affecting such projects.

Risks of Investing in Debt Issued by Non-Profit Institutions. Investing in debt issued by non-profit institutions, including foundations, museums, cultural institutions, colleges, universities, hospitals and healthcare systems, involves different frisks than investing in municipal bonds. Many non-profit entities are tax-exempt under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code and risk losing their tax-exempt status if they do not comply with the requirements of that section. There is a risk that Congress or the IRS could pass new laws or regulations changing the requirements for tax-exempt status, which could result in a non-profit institution losing such status. Additionally, non-profit institutions that receive federal and state appropriations face the risk of a decrease in or loss of such appropriations. Hospitals and healthcare systems are highly regulated at the federal and state levels and face burdensome state licensing requirements. There is a risk that a state could refuse to renew a hospital’s license or that the passage of new laws or regulations, especially changes to Medicare or Medicaid reimbursement, could inhibit a hospital from growing its revenues. Hospitals and healthcare systems also face risks related to increased competition from other health care providers; increased costs of inpatient and outpatient care; changes in healthcare services provided over time or during specific periods; and increased pressures from managed care organizations, insurers, and patients to cut the costs of medical care. There is a risk that non¬profit institutions relying on philanthropy and donations to maintain their operations will receive less funding during economic downturns or other periods of adverse market, economic or political conditions.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION OF
TRUST PERFORMANCE (Unaudited) continued	November 30, 2024

Senior Loans Risk. The Trust may invest in senior secured floating rate loans made to corporations and other non-governmental entities and issuers (“Senior Loans”). Senior Loans typically hold the most senior position in the capital structure of the issuing entity, are typically secured with specific collateral and typically have a claim on the assets of the borrower, including stock owned by the borrower in its subsidiaries, that is senior to that held by subordinated debt holders and stockholders of the borrower. The Trust’s investments in Senior Loans are typically below investment grade and are considered speculative because of the credit risk of their issuers, including increased credit risk. The risks associated with Senior Loans of below investment grade quality are similar to the risks of other lower grade securities, although Senior Loans are typically senior in payment priority and secured on a senior priority basis in contrast to subordinated and unsecured securities. Loans and other debt instruments are also subject to the risk of price declines due to increases in prevailing interest rates, although floating-rate debt instruments are less exposed to this risk than fixed-rate debt instruments. Interest rate changes may also increase prepayments of debt obligations and require the Trust to invest assets at lower yields. In addition, extension risk (the risk that payments on principal will occur at a slower rate or later than expected) is heightened in market environments where interest rates are higher or rising. During periods of deteriorating economic conditions, such as recessions or periods of rising unemployment, or changing interest rates (notably increases), delinquencies and losses generally increase, sometimes dramatically, with respect to obligations under such loans. An economic downturn or individual corporate developments could adversely affect the value and market for these instruments and reduce the Trust’s ability to sell these instruments at an advantageous time or price. An economic downturn would generally lead to a higher non-payment rate and, a Senior Loan may lose significant market value before a default occurs. The Trust invests in or is exposed to loans and other similar debt obligations that are sometimes referred to as “covenant-lite” loans or obligations, which are generally subject to more risk than investments that contain traditional financial maintenance covenants and financial reporting requirements.

Structured Finance Investments Risk. The Trust’s structured finance investments may consist of residential mortgage-backed securities (“RMBS”) and commercial mortgage-backed securities (“CMBS”) issued by governmental entities and private issuers, asset-backed securities (“ABS”), structured notes, credit-linked notes and other types of structured finance securities. Holders of structured finance investments bear risks of the underlying investments, index or reference obligation and are subject to counterparty risk. The Trust generally has the right to receive payments only from the structured product, and generally does not have direct rights against the issuer or the entity that sold the assets to be securitized. The Trust may invest in structured finance products collateralized by low grade or defaulted loans or securities. Investments in such structured finance products are subject to the risks associated with below investment grade securities. Such securities are characterized by high risk. It is likely that an economic recession could severely disrupt the market for such securities and may have an adverse impact on the value of and income from such securities. Moreover, other types of events, domestic or international, may affect general economic conditions and financial markets, such as pandemics, armed conflicts, energy supply or price disruptions, natural disasters and

²⁰l ^GBABl ^{GUGGENHEIM TAXABLE MUNICIPAL BOND & INVESTMENT GRADE DEBT TRUST SEMIANNUAL REPORT}


MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION OF
TRUST PERFORMANCE (Unaudited) continued	November 30, 2024

man-made disasters, which may have a significant effect on the underlying assets. Structured finance securities are typically privately offered and sold, and thus are not registered under the securities laws. As a result, investments in structured finance securities may be characterized by the Trust as illiquid securities; however, such securities may be considered liquid in some circumstances.

Asset-Backed Securities Risk. While traditional fixed-income securities typically pay a fixed rate of interest until maturity, when the entire principal amount is due, an ABS represents an interest in a pool of assets, such as automobile loans, credit card receivables, unsecured consumer loans or student loans, that has been securitized and provides for monthly or other periodic payments of interest, at a fixed or floating rate, and principal from the cash flow of these assets. This pool of assets (and any related assets of the issuing entity) is the only source of payment for the ABS. The ability of an ABS issuer to make payments on the ABS, and the timing of such payments, is therefore dependent on collections on these underlying assets, which may be insufficient to make interest and principal payments. The recoveries on the underlying collateral may not, in some cases, be sufficient to support payments on these securities, or may be unavailable in the event of a default and enforcing rights with respect to these assets or collateral may be difficult and costly, which may result in losses to investors in an ABS. The collateral underlying ABS may constitute assets related to a wide range of industries such as credit card and automobile receivables or other assets derived from consumer, commercial or corporate sectors, and these underlying assets may be secured or unsecured. ABS are particularly subject to interest rate risk and credit risk. Compared to other fixed income investments with similar maturity and credit, ABS generally increase in value to a lesser extent when interest rates decline and generally decline in value to a similar or greater extent when interest rates rise.

Mortgage-Backed Securities Risk. Mortgage-backed securities (“MBS”) represent an interest in a pool of mortgages. MBS generally are classified as either commercial mortgage-backed securities (“CMBS”) or residential mortgage-backed securities (“RMBS”), each of which are subject to certain specific risks. The risks associated with MBS include: (1) credit risk associated with the performance of the underlying mortgage properties and of the borrowers owning these properties; (2) risks associated with their structure and execution (including the collateral, the process by which principal and interest payments are allocated and distributed to investors and how credit losses affect the return to investors in such MBS); (3) risks associated with the servicer of the underlying mortgages; (4) adverse changes in economic conditions and circumstances, which are more likely to have an adverse impact on MBS secured by loans on certain types of commercial properties than on those secured by loans on residential properties; (5) prepayment and extension risks associated with the underlying assets of certain MBS, which can shorten the weighted average maturity and lower the return of the MBS, or lengthen the expected maturity, respectively, leading to significant fluctuations in the value of and income generated by the mortgage-backed security; (6) loss of all or part of the premium, if any, paid; and (7) decline in the market value of the security, whether resulting from changes in interest rates, prepayments on the underlying mortgage collateral or perceptions of the credit risk associated with the underlying mortgage collateral. The value of MBS may be substantially

^GBABl ^{GUGGENHEIM TAXABLE MUNICIPAL BOND & INVESTMENT GRADE DEBT TRUST SEMIANNUAL REPORT}l ²¹


MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION OF
TRUST PERFORMANCE (Unaudited) continued	November 30, 2024

dependent on the servicing of the underlying pool of mortgages. Income from and values of MBS also may be greatly affected by demographic trends, such as population shifts or changing tastes and values, or increasing vacancies or declining rents resulting from legal, cultural technological, global or local economic developments, as well as reduced demand for properties and public health conditions.

Non-agency MBS (i.e., MBS issued by commercial banks, savings and loans institutions, mortgage bankers, private mortgage insurance companies and other non-governmental issuers) are subject to the risk that the value of such securities will decline because, among other things, the securities are not guaranteed as to principal or interest by the U.S. government or a government sponsored enterprise. Non-agency MBS typically have less favorable underwriting characteristics (such as credit and default risk and collateral) and a wider range in terms (such as interest rate, term and borrower characteristics) than agency MBS. When issued in different tranches, individual tranches of nonagency MBS may subject to increased (and sometimes different) credit, prepayment and liquidity and valuation risks as compared to other tranches. Non-agency MBS are often subject to greater credit, prepayment and liquidity and valuation risks than agency MBS, and they are generally subject to greater price fluctuation and likelihood of reduced income than agency MBS, especially during periods of weakness or perceived weakness in the mortgage and real estate sectors.

The general effects of inflation on the U.S. economy can be wide-ranging, as evidenced by rising interest rates, wages and costs of consumer goods and necessities. The long-term effects of inflation on the general economy and on any individual mortgagor are unclear, and in certain cases, rising inflation may affect a mortgagor’s ability to repay its related mortgage loan, thereby reducing the amount received by the holders of MBS with respect to such mortgage loan. Additionally, increased rates of inflation may negatively affect the value of certain MBS in the secondary market. MBS are particularly sensitive to changes in interest rates. During periods of declining economic conditions, losses on mortgages underlying MBS generally increase.

In addition, MBS, such as CMBS and RMBS, are subject to the risks of asset-backed securities generally and are particularly sensitive to changes in interest rates and developments in the commercial or residential real estate markets, which may adversely affect the Fund’s holdings of MBS. For example, rising interest rates generally result in a decline in the value of mortgage-related securities, such as CMBS and RMBS. MBS are also subject to risks similar to those associated with investing in real estate, such as the possible decline in the value of (or income generated by) the real estate, variations in rental income, fluctuations in occupancy levels and demand for properties or real estate-related services, changes in interest rates and changes in the availability or terms of mortgages and other financing that may render the sale or refinancing of properties difficult or unattractive.

CLO, CDO and CBO Risk. In addition to the general risks (such as interest rate risk, prepayment risk, extension risk, market risk, credit risk and liquidity and valuation risk) associated with debt securities discussed herein, collateralized loan obligations (“CLOs”), collateralized debt obligations

²²l ^GBABl ^{GUGGENHEIM TAXABLE MUNICIPAL BOND & INVESTMENT GRADE DEBT TRUST SEMIANNUAL REPORT}


MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION OF
TRUST PERFORMANCE (Unaudited) continued	November 30, 2024

(“CDOs”), and collateralized bond obligations (“CBOs”) are subject to additional risks due to their complex structure and highly leveraged nature, such as higher risk of volatility and magnified financial losses. CLOs, CDOs and CBOs are subject to risks associated with the possibility that distributions from collateral securities may not be adequate to make interest or other payments. The value of and income from securities issued by CLOs, CDOs and CBOs also may decrease because of, among other developments, changes in market value; underlying loan, debt or bond defaults or delinquencies; changes in the market’s perception of the creditworthiness of the servicer of the assets, the originator of an asset in the pool, or the financial institution or fund providing the credit support or enhancement; loan performance and prices; broader market sentiment, including expectations regarding future loan defaults; liquidity conditions; and supply and demand for structured products. Additionally, the indirect investment structure of CLOs, CDOs and CBOs presents certain risks to the Trust such as less liquidity compared with holding the underlying assets directly. CLOs, CDOs and CBOs normally charge management fees and administrative expenses, which would be borne by the Trust. The terms of many structured finance investments, including CLOs, CDOs and CBOs, are tied to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) or other reference rates based on SOFR. These relatively new and developing rates may not match the reference rate applicable to the underlying assets related to these investments. These events may adversely affect the Trust and its investments in CLOs, CDOs and CBOs, including their value, volatility and liquidity.

Investment Funds Risk. As an alternative to holding investments directly, the Trust may also obtain investment exposure to securities in which it may invest directly by investing in other investment companies, including U.S. registered investment companies and/or other U.S. or foreign pooled investment vehicles (collectively, “Investment Funds”). Investments in Investment Funds present certain special considerations and risks not present in making direct investments in securities in which the Trust may invest. Investments in Investment Funds subject the Trust to the risks affecting such Investment Funds and involve operating expenses and fees that are in addition to the expenses and fees borne by the Trust. Such expenses and fees attributable to the Trust’s investment in another Investment Fund are borne indirectly by common shareholders. Accordingly, investment in such entities involves expenses and fees at both levels. To the extent management fees of Investment Funds are based on total gross assets, it may create an incentive for such entities’ managers to employ financial leverage, thereby adding additional expense and increasing volatility and risk (including the Fund’s overall exposure to leverage risk). A performance-based fee arrangement may create incentives for an adviser or manager to take greater investment risks in the hope of earning a higher profit participation. Investments in Investment Funds frequently expose the Trust to an additional layer of financial leverage and, thus, increase the Trust’s exposure to leverage risk and costs. From time to time, the Trust may invest a significant portion of its assets in Investment Funds that employ leverage. The use of leverage by Investment Funds may cause these Investment Funds’ market price of common shares and/or NAV to be more volatile and can magnify the effect of any losses and cause similar effects on the Trust.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION OF
TRUST PERFORMANCE (Unaudited) continued	November 30, 2024

Operational Risk. The Trust is exposed to, and may be subject to losses from, operational risks arising from a number of factors, including, but not limited to, human error, processing and communication errors, errors of the Trust’s service providers, counterparties or other third-parties, failed or inadequate processes and technology, systems failures or external events, including natural disasters. The Trust and its service providers, including the Investment Manager, seek to reduce these operational risks through controls and procedures. However, these measures do not address every possible risk and may be inadequate to address significant operational risks.

In addition to the foregoing risks, investors should note that the Trust reserves the right to merge or reorganize with another fund, liquidate or convert into an open-end fund, in each case subject to applicable approvals by shareholders and the Trust’s Board of Trustees as required by law and the Trust’s governing documents.

* Inputs are weighted by the fair value of the instruments.

Significant changes in a quote, yield, liquidation value or valuation multiple would generally result in significant changes in the fair value of the security.

The Trust’s fair valuation leveling guidelines classify a single daily broker quote, or a vendor price based on a single daily or monthly broker quote, as Level 3, if such a quote or price cannot be supported with other available market information.

Transfers between Level 2 and Level 3 may occur as markets fluctuate and/or the availability of data used in an investment’s valuation changes. For the period ended November 30, 2024, the Trust had securities with a total value of $2,271,175 transfer into Level 3 from Level 2 due to a lack of observable inputs and had securities with a total value of $1,493,445 transfer out of Level 3 into Level 2 due to the availability of current and reliable market-based data provided by a third-party pricing service which utilizes significant observable inputs.

Based on average shares outstanding.

(b)

Total return is calculated assuming a purchase of a common share at the beginning of the period and a sale on the last day of the period reported either at net asset value (“NAV”) or market price per share. Dividends and distributions are assumed to be reinvested at NAV for NAV returns or the prices obtained under the Trust’s Dividend Reinvestment Plan for market value returns. Total return does not reflect brokerage commissions. A return calculated for a period of less than one year is not annualized.

Calculated by subtracting the Trust’s total liabilities (not including the borrowings) from the Trust’s total assets and dividing by the borrowings. Effective August 19, 2022, the Trust’s obligations under reverse repurchase agreement transactions are treated as senior securities representing indebtedness for purposes of the 1940 Act. Accordingly, for the period ended November 30, 2024 and the years ended May 31, 2024 and 2023, Asset Coverage is calculated by subtracting the Trust’s total liabilities (not including the borrowings or reverse repurchase agreements) from the Trust’s total assets and dividing by the sum of the borrowings and reverse repurchase agreements.

(e)

The ratios of total expenses to average net assets applicable to common shares do not reflect fees and expenses incurred indirectly by the Trust as a result of its investment in shares of other investment companies. If these fees were included in the expense ratios, for the period ended November 30, 2024 and the years ended May 31, the expense ratios would increase by:

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)	November 30, 2024

Note 1 – Organization

Guggenheim Taxable Municipal Bond & Investment Grade Debt Trust (the “Trust”) was organized as a Delaware statutory trust on June 30, 2010. The Trust is registered as a diversified, closed-end management investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”).

The Trust’s primary investment objective is to provide current income with a secondary objective of long-term capital appreciation. There can be no assurance that the Trust will achieve its investment objectives. The Trust’s investment objectives are considered fundamental and may not be changed without shareholder approval.

Note 2 – Significant Accounting Policies

The Trust operates as an investment company and, accordingly, follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 Financial Services – Investment Companies.

The following significant accounting policies are in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) and are consistently followed by the Trust. This requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates. All time references are based on Eastern Time.

(a) Valuation of Investments

The Board of Trustees of the Trust (the “Board”) adopted policies and procedures for the valuation of the Trust’s investments (the “Trust Valuation Procedures”). The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) adopted Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act (“Rule 2a-5”) which establishes requirements for determining fair value in good faith. Rule 2a-5 also defines “readily available market quotations” for purposes of the 1940 Act and establishes requirements for determining whether a fund must fair value a security in good faith.

Pursuant to Rule 2a-5, under the 1940 Act, the Board has designated Guggenheim Funds Investment Advisors, LLC (“GFIA” or the “Adviser”) as the valuation designee to perform fair valuation determinations for the Trust with respect to all Fund investments and/or other assets. As the Trust’s valuation designee pursuant to Rule 2a-5, the Adviser has adopted separate procedures (the “Valuation Designee Procedures” and collectively with the Trust Valuation Procedures, the “Valuation Procedures”) reasonably designed to prevent violations of the requirements of Rule 2a-5 and Rule 31a-4 under the 1940 Act. The Adviser, in its role as valuation designee, utilizes the assistance of a valuation committee, consisting of representatives from Guggenheim’s investment management, fund administration, legal and compliance departments (the “Valuation Committee”), in determining the fair value of the Trust’s securities and/or other assets. The Valuation Procedures may be amended and potentially adversely affected as the Trust seeks to comply with regulations that apply to the valuation practices of registered investment companies.

^GBABl ^{GUGGENHEIM TAXABLE MUNICIPAL BOND & INVESTMENT GRADE DEBT TRUST SEMIANNUAL REPORT}l ⁶⁵


NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) continued	November 30, 2024

Valuations of the Trust’s securities and other assets are supplied primarily by independent third-party pricing service appointed pursuant to the processes set forth in the Valuation Procedures. The Adviser, with the assistance of the Valuation Committee, convenes monthly, or more frequently as needed, to review the valuation of all assets which have been fair valued. The Adviser, consistent with the monitoring and review responsibilities set forth in the Valuation Procedures, regularly reviews the appropriateness of the inputs, methods, models and assumptions employed by the independent third-party pricing service.

If the independent third-party pricing service cannot or does not provide a valuation for a particular investment or such valuation is deemed unreliable, such investment is fair valued by the Adviser.

Equity securities listed or traded on a recognized U.S. securities exchange or the Nasdaq Stock Market (“NASDAQ”) will generally be valued on the basis of the last sale price on the primary U.S. exchange or market on which the security is listed or traded; provided, however, that securities listed on NASDAQ will be valued at the NASDAQ official closing price, which may not necessarily represent the last sale price.

Open-end investment companies are valued at their net asset value (“NAV”) as of the close of business, on the valuation date. Exchange-traded funds and closed-end investment companies are generally valued at the last quoted sale price.

Generally, trading in foreign securities markets is substantially completed each day at various times prior to the close of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”). The values of foreign securities are determined as of the close of such foreign markets or the close of the NYSE, if earlier. All investments quoted in foreign currencies are valued in U.S. dollars on the basis of the foreign currency exchange rates prevailing at the close of U.S. business at 4:00 p.m. Investments in foreign securities may involve risks not present in domestic investments. The Adviser will determine the current value of such foreign securities by taking into consideration certain factors which may include the following factors, among others: the value of the securities traded on other foreign markets, American Depositary Receipts “ADRs” trading, closed-end fund trading, foreign currency exchange activity, and the trading prices of financial products that are tied to foreign securities. In addition, under the Valuation Procedures, the Adviser is authorized to use prices and other information supplied by an independent third-party pricing service in valuing foreign securities.

Commercial paper and discount notes with a maturity of greater than 60 days at acquisition are valued at prices that reflect broker-dealer supplied valuations or are obtained from independent third-party pricing services, which may consider the trade activity, treasury spreads, yields or price of bonds of comparable quality, coupon, maturity, and type, as well as prices quoted by dealers who make markets in such securities. Commercial paper and discount notes with a maturity of 60 days or less at acquisition are valued at amortized cost, unless the Adviser concludes that amortized cost does not represent the fair value of the applicable asset in which case it will be valued using an independent third-party pricing service.

U.S. Government securities are valued by independent third-party pricing services, using the last traded fill price, or at the reported bid price at the close of business on the valuation date.

CLOs, CDOs, MBS, ABS, and other structured financie securities are generally valued using an independent third-party pricing service.

⁶⁶l ^GBABl ^{GUGGENHEIM TAXABLE MUNICIPAL BOND & INVESTMENT GRADE DEBT TRUST SEMIANNUAL REPORT}


NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) continued	November 30, 2024

Typically, loans are valued using information provided by independent third-party pricing services which uses broker quotes, among other inputs. If the pricing service cannot or does not provide a valuation for a particular loan, or such valuation is deemed unreliable, such investment is valued based on a quote from a broker-dealer or is fair valued by the Adviser.

Repurchase agreements are valued at amortized cost, provided such amounts approximate market value.

Exchange-traded options are valued at the mean of the bid and ask prices on the principal exchange on which they are traded. Over-the-counter (“OTC”) options and options on swaps (“swaptions”) are valued using a price provided by a pricing service.

Interest rate swap agreements entered into by the Trust are valued on the basis of the last sale price on the primary exchange on which the swap is traded. Other swap agreements entered into by the Trust are generally valued using an evaluated price provided by an independent third-party pricing service.

Forward foreign currency exchange contracts are valued daily based on the applicable exchange rate of the underlying currency.

Investments for which market quotations are not readily available are fair valued as determined in good faith by the Adviser. Valuations in accordance with these methods are intended to reflect each security’s (or asset’s or liability’s) “fair value”. Each such determination is based on a consideration of all factors deemed relevant by the Adviser, which are likely to vary from one pricing context to another. Examples of such factors may include, but are not limited to: market prices; sale prices; broker quotes; and models which derive prices based on inputs such as prices of securities with comparable maturities and characteristics, or based on inputs such as anticipated cash flows or collateral, spread over U.S. Treasury securities, and other information analysis. In connection with futures contracts and other derivative instruments, such factors may include obtaining information as to how (a) these contracts and other derivative instruments trade in the futures or other derivative markets, respectively, and (b) the securities underlying these contracts and other derivative instruments trade in the cash market.

(b) Investment Transactions and Investment Income

Investment transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Realized gains and losses on investments are determined on the identified cost basis. Dividend income is recorded net of applicable withholding taxes on the ex-dividend date and interest income is recorded on an accrual basis. Discounts or premiums on debt securities purchased are accreted or amortized to interest income using the effective interest method. Interest income also includes paydown gains and losses on mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities, and senior and subordinated loans. Amendment fees are earned as compensation for evaluating and accepting changes to the original loan agreement.

The Trust may receive other income from investments in senior loan interests, including amendment fees, consent fees and commitment fees. For funded loans, these fees are recorded as income when received by the Trust and included in interest income on the Trust’s Statement of Operations. For unfunded loans, commitment fees are included in realized gain on investments on the Trust’s Statement of Operations at the end of the commitment period.

^GBABl ^{GUGGENHEIM TAXABLE MUNICIPAL BOND & INVESTMENT GRADE DEBT TRUST SEMIANNUAL REPORT}l ⁶⁷


NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) continued	November 30, 2024

Income from residual collateralized loan obligations is recognized using the effective interest method. At the time of purchase, management estimates the future expected cash flows and determines the effective yield and estimated maturity date based on the estimated cash flows. Subsequent to the purchase, the estimated cash flows are updated periodically and a revised yield is calculated prospectively.

(c) Senior Floating Rate Interests and Loan Investments

Senior floating rate interests in which the Trust invests generally pay interest rates which are periodically adjusted by reference to a base short-term floating rate, plus a premium. These base lending rates are generally (i) the lending rate offered by one or more major European banks, (ii) the prime rate offered by one or more major United States banks, or (iii) the bank’s certificate of deposit rate. Senior floating rate interests often require prepayments from excess cash flows or permit the borrower to repay at its election. The rate at which the borrower repays cannot be predicted with accuracy. As a result, the actual remaining maturity may be substantially less than the stated maturities disclosed in the Trust’s Schedule of Investments.

The Trust invests in loans and other similar debt obligations (“obligations”). A portion of the Trust’s investments in these obligations is sometimes referred to as “covenant lite” loans or obligations (“covenant lite obligations”), which are obligations that lack financial maintenance covenants or possess fewer or contingent financial maintenance covenants and other financial protections for lenders and investors. The Trust may also obtain exposure to covenant lite obligations through investment in securitization vehicles and other structured products. Many new, restructured or reissued obligations have not featured traditional covenants, which are intended to protect lenders and investors by (i) imposing certain restrictions or other limitations on a borrower’s operations or assets or (ii) providing certain rights to lenders. The Trust may have fewer rights with respect to covenant lite obligations, including fewer protections against the possibility of default and fewer remedies in the event of default. As a result, investments in (or exposure to) covenant lite obligations are subject to more risk than investments in (or exposure to) certain other types of obligations. The Trust is subject to other risks associated with investments in (or exposure to) such obligations, including that obligations may not be considered “securities” and, as a result, the Trust may not be entitled to rely on the anti-fraud protections under the federal securities laws and instead may have to resort to state law and direct claims.

(d) Interest on When-Issued Securities

The Trust may purchase and sell interests in securities on a when-issued and delayed delivery basis, with payment and delivery scheduled for a future date. No income accrues to the Trust on such interests or securities in connection with such transactions prior to the date the Trust actually takes delivery of such interests or securities. These transactions are subject to market fluctuations and are subject to the risk that the value at delivery may be more or less than the trade date purchase price. Although the Trust will generally purchase these securities with the intention of acquiring such securities, it may sell such securities before the settlement date.

(e) Currency Translations

The accounting records of the Trust are maintained in U.S. dollars. All assets and liabilities initially expressed in foreign currencies are converted into U.S. dollars at prevailing exchange rates.

⁶⁸l ^GBABl ^{GUGGENHEIM TAXABLE MUNICIPAL BOND & INVESTMENT GRADE DEBT TRUST SEMIANNUAL REPORT}


NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) continued	November 30, 2024

Purchases and sales of investment securities, dividend and interest income, and certain expenses are translated at the rates of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions. Changes in the relationship of these foreign currencies to the U.S. dollar can significantly affect the value of the investments and earnings of the Trust. Foreign investments may also subject the Trust to foreign government exchange restrictions, expropriation, taxation, or other political, social, geopolitical or economic developments, all of which could affect the market and/or credit risk of the investments.

The Trust does not isolate that portion of the results of operations resulting from changes in the foreign exchange rates on investments from the fluctuations arising from changes in the market prices of securities held. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized gain or loss and unrealized appreciation or depreciation on investments.

Reported net realized foreign exchange gains and losses arise from sales of foreign currencies and currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on investment transactions. Net unrealized appreciation and depreciation arise from changes in the fair values of assets and liabilities other than investments in securities at the fiscal period end, resulting from changes in exchange rates.

(f) Forward Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts

The change in value of a forward foreign currency exchange contract is recorded as unrealized appreciation or depreciation until the contract is closed. When the contract is closed, the Trust records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value at the time the contract was opened and the value at the time it was closed.

(g) Distributions to Shareholders

The Trust intends to declare and pay monthly distributions to common shareholders. The Trust expects that distributions will generally consist of (i) investment company taxable income taxed as ordinary income, which includes, among other things, short-term capital gain and income from certain hedging and interest rate transactions, (ii) long-term capital gain and (iii) return of capital. Any net realized long-term capital gains are distributed annually to common shareholders. To the extent distributions exceed the amount of the Trust’s earnings and profit available for distribution, the excess will be deemed a return of capital. A return of capital is generally not taxable and would reduce the shareholder’s tax basis in its shares, which would reduce the loss (or increase the gain) on a subsequent taxable disposition by such shareholder of the shares, until such shareholder’s basis reaches zero at which point subsequent return of capital distributions would constitute taxable capital gain to such shareholder. Shareholders receiving a return of capital may be under the impression that they are receiving net investment income or profit when they are not.

Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The amount and timing of distributions are determined in accordance with U.S. federal income tax regulations, which may differ from U.S. GAAP.

(h) Restricted Cash

If the Trust receives cash collateral in connection with derivative instruments, such amount is presented on the Trust’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities as Segregated cash due to broker. At November 30, 2024, the Trust did not have any segregated cash due to broker. A portion of the Trust’s

^GBABl ^{GUGGENHEIM TAXABLE MUNICIPAL BOND & INVESTMENT GRADE DEBT TRUST SEMIANNUAL REPORT}l ⁶⁹


NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) continued	November 30, 2024

cash has been pledged as collateral for swap agreements. This amount is presented on the Trust’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities as Segregated cash due from broker. At November 30, 2024, there was $411,188 of segregated cash due from broker.

(i) Swap Agreements

Swap agreements are marked-to-market daily and the change, if any, is recorded as unrealized appreciation or depreciation. Payments received or made as a result of an agreement or termination of an agreement are recognized as realized gains or losses.

Upon entering into certain centrally-cleared swap transactions, the Trust is required to deposit with its clearing broker an amount of cash or securities as an initial margin. Subsequent variation margin receipts or payments are received or made by the Trust depending on fluctuations in the fair value of the reference entity and are recorded by the Trust as unrealized appreciation or depreciation. When the contract is closed, the Trust records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed.

Upfront payments received or made by the Trust on credit default swap agreements and interest rate swap agreements are amortized over the expected life of the agreement. Periodic payments received or paid by the Trust are recorded as realized gains or losses. Payments received or made as a result of a credit event or termination of the contract are recognized, net of a proportional amount of the upfront payment, as realized gains or losses.

(j) Options

Upon the purchase of an option, the premium paid is recorded as an investment, the value of which is marked-to-market daily. If a purchased option expires, the Trust realizes a loss in the amount of the cost of the option. When the Trust enters into a closing sale transaction, it realizes a gain or loss depending on whether the proceeds from the closing sale transaction are greater or less than the cost of the option. If the Trust exercises a put option, it realizes a gain or loss from the sale of the underlying security and the proceeds from such sale will be decreased by the premium originally paid. When the Trust exercises a call option, the cost of the security purchased by the Trust upon exercise increases by the premium originally paid.

When the Trust writes (sells) an option, an amount equal to the premium received is entered in that Trust’s accounting records as an asset and equivalent liability. The amount of the liability is subsequently marked-to-market to reflect the current value of the option written. When a written option expires, or if the Trust enters into a closing purchase transaction, it realizes a gain (or loss if the cost of a closing purchase transaction exceeds the premium received when the option was sold).

(k) Indemnifications

Under the Trust’s organizational documents, its Trustees and Officers are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Trust. In addition, throughout the normal course of business, the Trust enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties which provide general indemnifications. The Trust’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Trust and/or its affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Trust expects the risk of loss to be remote.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) continued	November 30, 2024

(l) Special Purpose Acquisition Companies

The Trust may acquire an interest in a special purpose acquisition company (“SPAC”) in an initial public offering or a secondary market transaction. SPAC investments carry many of the same risks as investments in initial public offering securities, such as erratic price movements, greater risk of loss, lack of information about the issuer, limited operating and little public or no trading history, and higher transaction costs. An investment in a SPAC is typically subject to a higher risk of dilution by additional later offerings of interests in the SPAC or by other investors exercising existing rights to purchase shares of the SPAC and interests in SPACs may be illiquid and/or be subject to restrictions on resale. A SPAC is a publicly traded company that raises investment capital for the purpose of acquiring the equity securities of one or more existing companies (or interests therein) via merger, combination, acquisition or other similar transactions. Unless and until an acquisition is completed, a SPAC generally invests its assets (less a portion retained to cover expenses) in U.S. government securities, money market securities and cash and does not typically pay dividends in respect of its common stock. SPAC investments are also subject to the risk that a significant portion of the funds raised by the SPAC may be expended during the search for a target acquisition or merger and that the SPAC may have limited time in which to conduct due diligence on potential business combination targets. Because SPACs are in essence blank check companies without operating history or ongoing business other than seeking acquisitions, the value of their securities is particularly dependent on the ability of the entity’s management to identify and complete a profitable acquisition. Among other conflicts of interest, the economic interests of the management, directors, officers and related parties of a SPAC can differ from the economic interests of public shareholders, which may lead to conflicts as they evaluate, negotiate and recommend business combination transactions to shareholders. This risk may become more acute as the deadline for the completion of a business combination nears. There is no guarantee that the SPACs in which the Trust invests will complete an acquisition or that any acquisitions that are completed will be profitable.

Note 3 – Derivatives

As part of its investment strategy, the Trust utilizes a variety of derivative instruments. These investments involve, to varying degrees, elements of market risk and risks in excess of amounts recognized on the Trust’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Valuation and accounting treatment of these instruments can be found under Significant Accounting Policies in Note 2 of these Notes to Financial Statements.

Derivatives are instruments whose values depend on, or are derived from, in whole or in part, the value of one or more other assets, such as securities, currencies, commodities or indices. Derivative instruments may be used for investment purposes (including to maintain cash reserves while maintaining exposure to certain other assets), for risk management (hedging) purposes, for diversification purposes, to change the duration of the Trust, for leverage purposes, to facilitate trading, to reduce transaction costs and to pursue higher investment returns. Derivative instruments may also be used to seek to mitigate certain investment risks, such as foreign currency exchange rate risk, interest rate risk and credit risk. U.S. GAAP requires disclosures to enable investors to better understand how and why the Trust uses derivative instruments, how these derivative instruments are accounted for and their effects on the Trust’s financial position and results of operations.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) continued	November 30, 2024

The Trust utilized derivatives for the following purposes:

Duration: the use of an instrument to manage the interest rate risk of a portfolio.

Hedge: an investment made in order to reduce the risk of adverse price movements in a security, by taking an offsetting position to protect against broad market moves.

Options Purchased and Written

A call option on a security gives the purchaser of the option the right to buy, and the writer of a call option the obligation to sell, the underlying security. The purchaser of a put option has the right to sell, and the writer of the put option the obligation to buy, the underlying security at any time during the option period. The risk associated with purchasing options is limited to the premium originally paid.

The following table represents the Trust’s use and volume of call/put options purchased on a monthly basis:

	Average Notional Amount
Use	Call	Put
Duration, Hedge	$–*	$–

* Options contracts were outstanding for 24 days during the period ended November 30, 2024. The daily average outstanding notional amount of call options purchased was $4,094,536.

The risk in writing a call option is that the Trust may incur a loss if the market price of the underlying security increases and the option is exercised. The risk in writing a put option is that the Trust may incur a loss if the market price of the underlying security decreases and the option is exercised.

In addition, there may be an imperfect correlation between the movement in prices of options and the underlying securities where the Trust may not be able to enter into a closing transaction because of an illiquid secondary market; or, for OTC options, the Trust may be at risk because of the counterparty’s inability to perform.

Swap Agreements

A swap is an agreement that obligates two parties to exchange a series of cash flows at specified intervals based upon or calculated by reference to changes in specified prices or rates for a specified amount of an underlying asset. When utilizing OTC swaps, the Trust bears the risk of loss of the amount expected to be received under a swap agreement in the event of the default or bankruptcy of a swap agreement counterparty or if the underlying asset declines in value. Certain standardized swaps are subject to mandatory central clearing and are executed on a multi-lateral or other trade facility platform, such as a registered exchange. There is limited counterparty credit risk with respect to centrally-cleared swaps as the transaction is facilitated through a central clearinghouse, much like exchange-traded futures contracts. If the Trust utilizes centrally-cleared swaps, the exchange bears the risk of loss resulting from a counterparty not being able to pay. There is no guarantee that the Trust or an underlying fund could eliminate its exposure under an outstanding swap agreement by entering into an offsetting swap agreement with the same or another party.

Credit default swaps are instruments which allow for the full or partial transfer of third-party credit risk, with respect to a particular entity or entities, from one counterparty to the other. The Trust

⁷²l ^GBABl ^{GUGGENHEIM TAXABLE MUNICIPAL BOND & INVESTMENT GRADE DEBT TRUST SEMIANNUAL REPORT}


NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) continued	November 30, 2024

enters into credit default swaps as a “seller” or “buyer” of protection primarily to gain or reduce exposure to the investment grade and/or high yield bond market. A seller of credit default swaps is selling credit protection or assuming credit risk with respect to the underlying entity or entities. The buyer in a credit default swap is obligated to pay the seller a periodic stream of payments over the term of the contract provided that no event of default on an underlying reference obligation has occurred. If a credit event occurs, as defined under the terms of the swap agreement, the seller will either (i) pay to the buyer of protection an amount equal to the notional amount of the swap and take delivery of the referenced obligation or underlying securities comprising the referenced index or (ii) pay a net settlement amount in the form of cash or securities equal to the notional amount of the swap less the recovery value of the referenced obligation or underlying securities comprising the referenced index. The notional amount reflects the maximum potential amount the seller of credit protection could be required to pay to the buyer if a credit event occurs. The seller of protection receives periodic premium payments from the buyer and may also receive or pay an upfront premium adjustment to the stated periodic payments. In the event a credit default occurs on a credit default swap referencing an index, a factor adjustment will take place and the buyer of protection will receive a payment reflecting the par less the default recovery rate of the defaulted index component based on its weighting in the index. If no default occurs, the counterparty will pay the stream of payments and have no further obligations to the Trust if the Trust is selling the credit protection. If the Trust utilizes centrally cleared credit default swaps, the exchange bears the risk of loss resulting from a counterparty not being able to pay. For OTC credit default swaps, the Trust bears the risk of loss of the amount expected to be received under a swap agreement in the event of the default or bankruptcy of a swap agreement counterparty, or in the case of a credit default swap in which the Trust is selling credit protection, the default of a third-party issuer.

The quoted market prices and resulting market values for credit default swap agreements on securities and credit indices serve as an indicator of the current status of the payment/performance risk and represent the likelihood of an expected liability (or profit) for the credit derivative had the notional amount of the swap agreement been closed/sold as of the period end. Increasing market values, in absolute terms when compared to the notional amount of the swap, represent a deterioration of the referenced entity’s credit soundness and a greater likelihood or risk of default or other credit event occurring as defined under the terms of the agreement.

The following table represents the Trust’s use and volume of credit default swaps on a monthly basis:

	Average Notional Amount
Use	Protection Sold	Protection Purchased
Hedge	$ —	$7,810,780

Forward Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts

A forward foreign currency exchange contract is an agreement between two parties to exchange two designated currencies at a specific time in the future. Certain types of contracts may be cash settled, in an amount equal to the change in exchange rates during the term of the contract. The contracts can be used to seek to hedge or manage exposure to foreign currency risks with portfolio investments or to seek to gain exposure to foreign currencies.

^GBABl ^{GUGGENHEIM TAXABLE MUNICIPAL BOND & INVESTMENT GRADE DEBT TRUST SEMIANNUAL REPORT}l ⁷³


NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) continued	November 30, 2024

The market value of a forward foreign currency exchange contract changes with fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. Furthermore, the Trust may be exposed to risk if the counterparties cannot meet the contract terms or if the currency value changes unfavorably as compared to the U.S. dollar.

In conjunction with the use of derivative instruments, the Trust is required to maintain collateral in various forms. Depending on the financial instrument utilized and the broker involved, the Trust uses margin deposits at the broker, cash and/or securities segregated at the custodian bank, discount notes or repurchase agreements allocated to the Trust as collateral.

The Trust has established counterparty credit guidelines and enters into transactions only with financial institutions rated/identified as investment grade or better. The Trust monitors the counterparty credit risk associated with each such financial institution.

Foreign Investments

There are several risks associated with exposure to foreign currencies, foreign issuers and emerging markets. The Trust’s indirect and direct exposure to foreign currencies subjects the Trust to the risk that those currencies will decline in value relative to the U.S. dollar, or in the case of short positions, that the U.S. dollar will decline in value relative to the currency being hedged. Currency rates in foreign countries may fluctuate significantly over short periods of time for a number of reasons, including changes in interest rates and the imposition of currency controls or other political

^GBABl ^{GUGGENHEIM TAXABLE MUNICIPAL BOND & INVESTMENT GRADE DEBT TRUST SEMIANNUAL REPORT}l ⁷⁵


NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) continued	November 30, 2024

developments in the U.S. or abroad. In addition, the Trust may incur transaction costs in connection with conversions between various currencies. The Trust may, but is not obligated to, engage in currency hedging transactions, which generally involve buying currency forward, options or futures contracts. However, not all currency risks may be effectively hedged, and in some cases the costs of hedging techniques may outweigh expected benefits. In such instances, the value of securities denominated in foreign currencies can change significantly when foreign currencies strengthen or weaken relative to the U.S. dollar.

The Trust may invest in securities of foreign companies directly, or in financial instruments, such as ADRs and exchange-traded funds, which are indirectly linked to the performance of foreign issuers. Foreign markets can be more volatile than the U.S. market due to increased risks of adverse issuer, political, geopolitical, regulatory, market, or economic developments and can perform differently from the U.S. market. Investing in securities of foreign companies directly, or in financial instruments that are indirectly linked to the performance of foreign issuers, may involve greater risks and risks not typically associated with investing in U.S. issuers. The value of securities denominated in foreign currencies, and of dividends from such securities, can change significantly when foreign currencies strengthen or weaken relative to the U.S. dollar. Foreign securities markets generally have less trading volume and less liquidity than U.S. markets, and prices in some foreign markets may fluctuate more than those of securities traded on U.S. markets. Many foreign countries lack accounting and disclosure standards comparable to those that apply to U.S. companies, and it may be more difficult to obtain reliable information regarding a foreign issuer’s financial condition and operations. Transaction costs and costs associated with custody services are generally higher for foreign securities than they are for U.S. securities. Some foreign governments levy withholding taxes against dividend and interest income. Although in some countries portions of these taxes are recoverable, the non-recovered portion will reduce the income received by the Trust.

Note 4 – Offsetting

In the normal course of business, the Trust enters into transactions subject to enforceable master netting arrangements or other similar arrangements. Generally, the right to offset in those agreements allows the Trust to counteract the exposure to a specific counterparty with collateral received from or delivered to that counterparty based on the terms of the arrangements. These arrangements provide for the right to liquidate upon the occurrence of an event of default, credit event upon merger or additional termination event.

In order to better define its contractual rights and to secure rights that will help the Trust mitigate its counterparty risk, the Trust may enter into an International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. Master Agreement (“ISDA Master Agreement”) or similar agreement with its derivative contract counterparties. An ISDA Master Agreement is a bilateral agreement between the Trust and a counterparty that governs OTC derivatives, including foreign exchange contracts, and typically contains, among other things, collateral posting terms and netting provisions in the event of a default and/or termination event. The provisions of the ISDA Master Agreement typically permit a single net payment in the event of a default (close-out netting) or similar event, including the bankruptcy or insolvency of the counterparty.

For derivatives traded under an ISDA Master Agreement, the collateral requirements are typically calculated by netting the mark-to-market amount for each transaction under such agreement

⁷⁶l ^GBABl ^{GUGGENHEIM TAXABLE MUNICIPAL BOND & INVESTMENT GRADE DEBT TRUST SEMIANNUAL REPORT}


NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) continued	November 30, 2024

and comparing that amount to the value of any collateral currently pledged by the Trust and the counterparty. For financial reporting purposes, cash collateral that has been pledged to cover obligations of the Trust and cash collateral received from the counterparty, if any, are reported separately on the Trust’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities as segregated cash with broker/ receivable for variation margin, or payable for swap settlement/variation margin. Cash and/ or securities pledged or received as collateral by the Trust in connection with an OTC derivative subject to an ISDA Master Agreement generally may not be invested, sold or rehypothecated by the counterparty or the Trust, as applicable, absent an event of default under such agreement, in which case such collateral generally may be applied towards obligations due to and payable by such counterparty or the Trust, as applicable. Generally, the amount of collateral due from or to a counterparty must exceed a minimum transfer amount threshold (e.g., $300,000) before a transfer is required to be made. To the extent amounts due to the Trust from its counterparties are not fully collateralized, contractually or otherwise, the Trust bears the risk of loss from counterparty nonperformance. The Trust attempts to mitigate counterparty risk by only entering into agreements with counterparties that it believes to be of good standing and by monitoring the financial stability of those counterparties.

For financial reporting purposes, the Trust does not offset derivative assets and derivative liabilities that are subject to netting arrangements in the Trust’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

Note 5 – Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates

Pursuant to an Investment Advisory Agreement between the Trust and the Adviser, the Adviser furnishes office facilities and equipment and provides administrative services on behalf of the Trust, and oversees the activities of Guggenheim Partners Investment Management, LLC (“GPIM” or the “Sub-Adviser”). The Adviser provides all services through the medium of any directors, officers or employees of the Adviser or its affiliates as the Adviser deems appropriate in order to fulfill its obligations. As compensation for these services, the Trust pays the Adviser a fee, payable monthly, at an annual rate equal to 0.60% of the Trust’s average daily Managed Assets (as defined in this report).

Pursuant to an Investment Sub-Advisory Agreement among the Trust, the Adviser and GPIM, GPIM, under the oversight and supervision of the Trust’s Board and the Adviser, manages the investment of the assets of the Trust in accordance with its investment objectives and policies, places orders to purchase and sell securities on behalf of the Trust, and, at the request of the Adviser, consults with the Adviser as to the overall management of the assets of the Trust and its investment policies and practices. As compensation for its services, the Adviser pays GPIM a fee, payable monthly, at an annual rate equal to 0.30% of the Trust’s average daily Managed Assets.

For purposes of calculating the fees payable under the foregoing agreements, “Managed Assets” means the total assets of the Trust, including the assets attributable to the proceeds from financial leverage, including the issuance of senior securities represented by indebtedness (including through borrowing from financial institutions or issuance of debt securities, including notes or commercial paper), the issuance of preferred shares, the effective leverage of certain portfolio transactions such as reverse repurchase agreements, dollar rolls and inverse floating rate securities, or any other form of financial leverage, minus liabilities, other than liabilities related to any financial leverage.

If the Trust invests in a fund that is advised by the Adviser or an adviser affiliated with the Adviser, the Adviser has agreed to waive Trust fees to the extent necessary to offset the proportionate share of any management fee paid by the Trust with respect to its investment in such fund. Fee waivers will be calculated at the Trust level without regard to any expense cap, if any, in effect for the Trust. Fees waived under this arrangement are not subject to reimbursement. For the period ended November 30, 2024, there were no such fees waived.

Certain officers and trustees of the Trust may also be officers, directors and/or employees of the Adviser or GPIM. The Trust does not compensate its officers who are officers, directors and/or employees of the aforementioned firms.

GFIA pays operating expenses on behalf of the Trust, such as audit and accounting related services, legal services, custody, printing and mailing, among others, on a pass-through basis.

MUFG Investor Services (US), LLC (“MUIS”) acts as the Trust’s administrator and accounting agent. As administrator and accounting agent, MUIS maintains the books and records of the Trust’s

⁷⁸l ^GBABl ^{GUGGENHEIM TAXABLE MUNICIPAL BOND & INVESTMENT GRADE DEBT TRUST SEMIANNUAL REPORT}


NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) continued	November 30, 2024

securities and cash. The Bank of New York Mellon Corp. (“BNY”) acts as the Trust’s custodian. As custodian, BNY is responsible for the custody of the Trust’s assets. For providing the aforementioned services, MUIS and BNY are entitled to receive a monthly fee equal to an annual percentage of the Trust’s average daily Managed Assets and certain out of pocket expenses.

Note 6 – Fair Value Measurement

In accordance with U.S. GAAP, fair value is defined as the price that the Trust would receive to sell an investment or pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. U.S. GAAP establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy based on the types of inputs used to value assets and liabilities and requires corresponding disclosure. The hierarchy and the corresponding inputs are summarized below:

Level 1 — unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 — significant other observable inputs (for example quoted prices for securities that are similar based on characteristics such as interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).

Level 3 — significant unobservable inputs based on the best information available under the circumstances, to the extent observable inputs are not available, which may include assumptions.

Rule 2a-5 sets forth a definition of “readily available market quotations,” which is consistent with the definition of a Level 1 input under U.S. GAAP. Rule 2a-5 provides that “a market quotation is readily available only when that quotation is a quoted price (unadjusted) in active markets for identical investments that the Trust can access at the measurement date, provided that a quotation will not be readily available if it is not reliable.”

Securities for which market quotations are not readily available must be valued at fair value as determined in good faith. Accordingly, any security priced using inputs other than Level 1 inputs will be subject to fair value requirements. The types of inputs available depend on a variety of factors, such as the type of security and the characteristics of the markets in which it trades, if any. Fair valuation determinations that rely on fewer or no observable inputs require greater judgment. Accordingly, fair value determinations for Level 3 securities require the greatest amount of judgment.

Independent third-party pricing services are used to value a majority of the Trust’s investments. When values are not available from an independent third-party pricing service, values will be determined using a variety of sources and techniques, including: market prices; broker quotes; and models which derive prices based on inputs such as prices of securities with comparable maturities and characteristics or based on inputs such as anticipated cash flows or collateral, spread over U.S. Treasury securities, and other information and analysis. A significant portion of the Trust’s assets and liabilities are categorized as Level 2, as indicated in this report.

Quotes from broker-dealers, adjusted for fluctuations in criteria such as credit spreads and interest rates, may also be used to value the Trust’s assets and liabilities, i.e. prices provided by a broker-dealer or other market participant who has not committed to trade at that price. Although quotes are typically received from established market participants, the Trust may not have the transparency to view the underlying inputs which support the market quotations. Significant changes in a quote would generally result in significant changes in the fair value of the security.

^GBABl ^{GUGGENHEIM TAXABLE MUNICIPAL BOND & INVESTMENT GRADE DEBT TRUST SEMIANNUAL REPORT}l ⁷⁹


NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) continued	November 30, 2024

Certain fixed income securities are valued by obtaining a monthly quote from a broker-dealer, adjusted for fluctuations in criteria such as credit spreads and interest rates.

Certain loans and other securities are valued using a single daily broker quote or a price from an independent third-party pricing service based on a single daily or monthly broker quote.

The inputs or methodologies selected and applied for valuing securities or other assets are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities or other assets. The suitability, appropriateness and accuracy of the techniques, methodologies and sources employed to determine fair valuation are periodically reviewed and subject to change.

Note 7 – Reverse Repurchase Agreements

The Trust may enter into reverse repurchase agreements as part of its financial leverage strategy. Under a reverse repurchase agreement, the Trust temporarily transfers possession of a portfolio instrument to another party, such as a bank or broker-dealer, in return for cash. At the same time, the Trust agrees to repurchase the instrument at an agreed upon time and price, which reflects an interest payment. Such agreements have the economic effect of borrowings. The Trust may enter into such agreements to seek to invest the cash acquired at a rate higher than the cost of the agreement, which would increase earned income. When the Trust enters into a reverse repurchase agreement, any fluctuations in the market value of either the instruments transferred to another party or the instruments in which the proceeds are invested would affect the market value of the Trust’s assets. As a result, such transactions may increase fluctuations in the market value of the Trust’s assets. For the period ended November 30, 2024, the average daily balance for which reverse repurchase agreements were outstanding amounted to $109,888,429. The weighted average interest rate was 5.39%. As of November 30, 2024 there was $111,499,848 (inclusive of interest payable) in reverse repurchase agreements outstanding.

As of November 30, 2024, the Trust had outstanding reverse repurchase agreements with various counterparties. Details of the reverse repurchase agreements by counterparty are as follows:

Note 8 – Borrowings

As of October 11, 2024 the Trust has entered into a $100,000,000 credit facility agreement with a new approved lender (the “Credit Agreement”). Under the terms of the Credit Agreement, the interest rate on the amount borrowed is based on the SOFR plus 85 basis points, and an unused commitment fee of 20 basis points is charged on the difference between the amount available to borrow under the credit agreement and the actual amount borrowed. The Trust had previously entered into a $100,000,000 credit facility agreement with another approved lender, which was terminated in full on November 20, 2024. As of November 30, 2024, there was $0 outstanding in connection with the Trust’s Credit Agreement. The Trust did not have any borrowings on the credit facility during the period ended November 30, 2024. As of November 30, 2024, the total value of securities segregated and pledged as collateral in connection with borrowings was $60,769.

The Credit Agreement includes customary representations and covenants, including certain limitations on the Trust’s ability to enter into additional indebtedness (subject to customary exclusions), change its investment policies if such change could reasonably be expected to materially and adversely affect the rights and remedies of the counterparty, or pledge to a party other than the counterparty, securities owned or held by the Trust over which the counterparty has a perfected first-priority interest. In addition, the Trust is required to deliver financial information to the counterparty within established deadlines, maintain an asset coverage ratio (as defined in Section 18(g) of the 1940 Act) greater than 300%, comply with the rules of the stock exchange on which its shares are listed, and maintain its classification as a “closed-end management investment company” as defined in the 1940 Act.

There is no guarantee that the Trust’s leverage strategy will be successful. The Trust’s use of leverage may cause the Trust’s NAV and market price of common shares to be more volatile and can magnify the effect of any losses.

Note 9 – Federal Income Tax Information

The Trust intends to comply with the provisions of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Internal Revenue Code”), applicable to regulated investment companies and will distribute substantially all taxable net investment income and capital gains sufficient to relieve the Trust from all, or substantially all, federal income, excise and state income taxes. Therefore, no provision for federal or state income tax or federal excise tax is required.

Tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Trust’s tax returns are evaluated to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions not deemed to meet the “more-likely-than-not” threshold

would be recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year. Management has analyzed the Trust’s tax positions taken, or to be taken, on U.S. federal income tax returns for all open tax years, and has concluded that no provision for income tax is required in the Trust’s financial statements. The Trust’s U.S. federal income tax returns are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) for a period of three years after they are filed.

If the Trust makes a distribution to its shareholders in excess of its current and accumulated “earnings and profits” in any taxable year, the excess distribution will be treated as a return of capital to the extent of each shareholder’s basis (for tax purposes) in its shares, and any distribution in excess of basis will be treated as capital gain. A return of capital is not taxable, but it reduces the shareholder’s basis in its shares, which reduces the loss (or increases the gain) on a subsequent taxable disposition by such shareholder of the shares.

At November 30, 2024, the cost of investments for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the aggregate gross unrealized appreciation for all investments for which there was an excess of value over tax cost and the aggregate gross unrealized depreciation for all investments for which there was an excess of tax cost over value, were as follows:

			Net Tax Unrealized
	Tax Unrealized	Tax Unrealized	Appreciation
Tax Cost	Appreciation	Depreciation	(Depreciation)
$554,632,930	$15,049,178	$(43,642,215)	$(28,593,037)

As of May 31, 2024, (the most recent fiscal year end for U.S. federal tax purposes) tax components of distributable earnings/(loss) were as follows:

Undistributed	Undistributed	Net Unrealized	Accumulated
Ordinary	Long-Term	Appreciation	Capital and
Income	Capital Gain	(Depreciation)	Other Losses	Total
$—	$—	$(44,544,291)	$(22,341,046)	$(66,885,337)

For the year ended May 31, 2024, (the most recent fiscal year end for U.S. federal income tax purposes) the tax character of distributions paid to shareholders as reflected in the Statements of Changes in Net Assets was as follows:

	Long-Term
Ordinary Income	Capital Gain	Return of Capital	Total Distributions
$19,705,406	$–	$16,017,779	$35,723,185

Note: For U.S. federal income tax purposes, short-term capital gain distributions are treated as ordinary income distributions.

Note 10 – Securities Transactions

For the period ended November 30, 2024, the cost of purchases and proceeds from sales of investment securities, excluding short-term investments and derivatives, were as follows $36,987,326 and $24,911,063 respectively.

The Trust is permitted to purchase or sell securities from or to certain affiliated funds under specified conditions outlined in procedures adopted by the Board. The procedures have been designed to ensure that any purchase or sale of securities by the Trust from or to another fund or portfolio that is or could be considered an affiliate by virtue of having a common investment adviser (or affiliated

Further, as defined under these procedures, each transaction is effected at the current market price. For the period ended November 30, 2024, the Trust did not engage in purchases and sales of securities, pursuant to Rule 17a-7 of the 1940 Act.

Note 11 – Unfunded Loan Commitments

Pursuant to the terms of certain loan agreements, the Trust held unfunded loan commitments as of November 30, 2024. The Trust is obligated to fund these loan commitments at the borrower’s discretion. The Trust reserves against such contingent obligations by designating cash, liquid securities, illiquid securities, and liquid term loans as a reserve. As of November 30, 2024, the total amount segregated in connection with unfunded loan commitments and reverse repurchase agreements was $117,134,494.

Note 13 – Capital

Common Shares

The Trust has an unlimited amount of common shares, $0.01 par value, authorized and 26,535,606 shares issued and outstanding as of November 30, 2024.

Transactions in common shares were as follows:
	Period Ended	Year Ended
	November 30, 2024	May 31, 2024
Beginning shares	24,801,498	22,979,362
Shares issued through at-the-market offering	1,659,287	1,721,855
Shares issued through dividend reinvestment	74,821	100,281
Ending shares	26,535,606	24,801,498

On April 12, 2023, the Trust’s current shelf registration allowing for the delayed or continuous offering of additional shares became effective. The shelf registration statement allows for the issuance of up to $150,000,000 of common shares. On April 12, 2023, the Trust entered into an at-the-market sales agreement with Cantor Fitzgerald & Co. to offer and sell common shares having an aggregated initial offering price of up to $150,000,000, from time to time, through Cantor Fitzgerald & Co. as agent for the Trust.

As of November 30, 2024, up to $91,544,684 remained available under the at-the-market sales agreement. For the period ended November 30, 2024, the Trust paid $3 for offering costs associated with the at-the market offering, and will be responsible for additional offering costs in the future of up to 0.60% of the offering price of common shares sold pursuant to the shelf registration statement.

A portion of the proceeds of the foregoing offering is usually used to pay distributions and may be a return of capital. If the Trust does not conduct such offering, it may not be able to maintain distributions at historical levels. There is no guarantee that the Trust will sell all of the common shares available for sale under its shelf registration statement or that there will be any sales of common shares thereunder and, from time to time, the Trust may be unable to sell its common shares under its shelf registration statement.

Note 14 – Market Risks

The value of, or income generated by, the investments held by the Trust are subject to the possibility of rapid and unpredictable fluctuation, and loss that may result from various factors. These factors include, among others, developments affecting individual companies, issuers or particular industries, or from broader influences, including real or perceived changes in prevailing interest rates (which may change at any time based on changes in monetary policies and various market and other economic conditions), changes in inflation rates or expectations about inflation rates, adverse investor confidence or sentiment, changing economic, political (including geopolitical), social or financial market conditions, increased instability or general uncertainty, environmental or man-made disasters, governmental actions, public health emergencies (such as the spread of infectious diseases, pandemics and epidemics), debt crises, actual or threatened wars or other armed conflicts (such as the escalated conflict in the Middle East and the ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict and its collateral economic and other effects, including, but not limited to, sanctions and

other international trade barriers) or ratings downgrades, and other types of similar events, each of which may be temporary or last for extended periods. Different sectors, industries and security types may react differently to such developments. Moreover, changing economic, political, geopolitical, social, financial market or other conditions in one country, geographic region or industry could adversely affect the value, yield and return of the investments held by the Trust in a different country, geographic region, economy, industry or market because of the increasingly interconnected global economies and financial markets. The duration and extent of the foregoing or similar types of factors or conditions are highly uncertain and difficult to predict and have in the past, and may in the future, cause volatility and distress in economies and financial markets or other adverse circumstances, which may negatively affect the value of the Trust’s investments and performance of the Trust.

Note 15 – Subsequent Events

The Trust evaluated subsequent events through the date the financial statements are issued and determined there were no material events that would require adjustment to or disclosure in the Trust’s financial statements.

DIVIDEND REINVESTMENT PLAN (Unaudited)	November 30, 2024

Unless the registered owner of common shares elects to receive cash by contacting Computershare Trust Company, N.A. (the “Plan Administrator”), all dividends declared on common shares of the Trust will be automatically reinvested by the Plan Administrator for shareholders in the Trust’s Dividend Reinvestment Plan (the “Plan”), in additional common shares of the Trust. Participation in the Plan is completely voluntary and may be terminated or resumed at any time without penalty by notice if received and processed by the Plan Administrator prior to the dividend record date; otherwise such termination or resumption will be effective with respect to any subsequently declared dividend or other distribution. Some brokers may automatically elect to receive cash on your behalf and may re-invest that cash in additional common shares of the Trust for you. If you wish for all dividends declared on your common shares of the Trust to be automatically reinvested pursuant to the Plan, please contact your broker.

The Plan Administrator will open an account for each common shareholder under the Plan in the same name in which such common shareholder’s common shares are registered. Whenever the Trust declares a dividend or other distribution (together, a “Dividend”) payable in cash, nonparticipants in the Plan will receive cash and participants in the Plan will receive the equivalent in common shares. The common shares will be acquired by the Plan Administrator for the participants’ accounts, depending upon the circumstances described below, either (i) through receipt of additional unissued but authorized common shares from the Trust (“Newly Issued Common Shares”) or (ii) by purchase of outstanding common shares on the open market (“Open-Market Purchases”) on the New York Stock Exchange or elsewhere. If, on the payment date for any Dividend, the closing market price plus estimated brokerage commission per common share is equal to or greater than the net asset value per common share, the Plan Administrator will invest the Dividend amount in Newly Issued Common Shares on behalf of the participants. The number of Newly Issued Common Shares to be credited to each participant’s account will be determined by dividing the dollar amount of the Dividend by the net asset value per common share on the payment date; provided that, if the net asset value is less than or equal to 95% of the closing market value on the payment date, the dollar amount of the Dividend will be divided by 95% of the closing market price per common share on the payment date. If, on the payment date for any Dividend, the net asset value per common share is greater than the closing market value plus estimated brokerage commission, the Plan Administrator will invest the Dividend amount in common shares acquired on behalf of the participants in Open-Market Purchases.

For federal income tax purposes, the Trust generally would be able to claim a deduction for distributions to shareholders with respect to the common shares issued at up to a 5-percent discount from the closing market value pursuant to the Plan.

If, before the Plan Administrator has completed its Open-Market Purchases, the market price per common share exceeds the net asset value per common share, the average per common share purchase price paid by the Plan Administrator may exceed the net asset value of the common shares, resulting in the acquisition of fewer common shares than if the Dividend had been paid in Newly Issued Common Shares on the Dividend payment date. Because of the foregoing difficulty with respect to Open-Market Purchases, the Plan provides that if the Plan Administrator is unable to invest the full Dividend amount in Open-Market Purchases during the purchase period or if the market discount shifts to a market premium during the purchase period, the Plan Administrator may cease making Open-Market Purchases and may invest the uninvested portion of the Dividend

amount in Newly Issued Common Shares at net asset value per common share at the close of business on the Last Purchase Date provided that, if the net asset value is less than or equal to 95% of the then current market price per common share; the dollar amount of the Dividend will be divided by 95% of the market price on the payment date.

The Plan Administrator maintains all shareholders’ accounts in the Plan and furnishes written confirmation of all transactions in the accounts, including information needed by shareholders for tax records. Common shares in the account of each Plan participant will be held by the Plan Administrator on behalf of the Plan participant, and each shareholder proxy will include those shares purchased or received pursuant to the Plan. The Plan Administrator will forward all proxy solicitation materials to participants and vote proxies for shares held under the Plan in accordance with the instruction of the participants.

There will be no brokerage charges with respect to common shares issued directly by the Trust. However, each participant will pay a pro rata share of brokerage commission incurred in connection with Open-Market Purchases. The automatic reinvestment of Dividends will not relieve participants of any Federal, state or local income tax that may be payable (or required to be withheld) on such Dividends.

The Trust reserves the right to amend or terminate the Plan. There is no direct service charge to participants with regard to purchases in the Plan; however, the Trust reserves the right to amend the Plan to include a service charge payable by the participants. All correspondence or questions concerning the Plan should be directed to the Plan Administrator, Computershare Trust Company, N.A., P.O. Box 30170 College Station, TX 77842-3170: Attention: Shareholder Services Department, Phone Number: (866) 488-3559 or online at www.computershare.com/investor.
