Master Lease Purchase Program
The Master Lease Purchase Program (MLPP) is a lease revenue financing mechanism for capital equipment acquisitions by state agencies. Under the program, the Texas Public Finance Authority (TPFA) borrows money to pay for an agency’s equipment or other projects by issuing tax-exempt revenue commercial paper notes. The agency and the TPFA enter into a lease agreement in which TPFA takes title to the equipment or project and leases it back to the agency, which is required to make lease payments to TPFA. When the lease is fully paid, the agency receives title to the equipment or other financed project. An agency may pay off its lease at any time without penalty.
