It's like the foreign central bank facility the fed offers. They get to cash in their bonds at full 100% value because the fed and treasury can't lose, they will certainly hold to maturity. The 1 year loans just keep getting rolled forward as long as needed.

Technically, it's not tax payer money if the bonds are held to maturity.
