no gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a direct result of a Reorganization, except that gain or loss may be recognized with respect to any cash received in lieu of fractional Acquiring Fund common shares. Prior to the closing of the
Reorganizations, each Acquired Fund expects to declare a distribution of all of its net investment income and net capital gains, if any. Such a distribution may be taxable to an Acquired Fund&#146;s shareholders for federal income tax purposes. To
the extent that an Acquired Fund&#146;s portfolio securities are sold in connection with a Reorganization, such Acquired Fund may realize gains or losses, which may increase or decrease the net capital gains or net investment income to be
distributed by the Acquired Fund. However, since each Acquired Fund&#146;s current portfolio composition is substantially similar to that of the Acquiring Fund and no Acquired Fund currently holds portfolio securities subject to the federal AMT, it
is not currently expected that any significant portfolio sales will occur solely in connection with the Reorganizations (less than 5% of the assets of each Acquired Fund). </FONT></TD></TR></TABLE>

the Acquired Funds and the Acquiring Fund obtaining the requisite shareholder approvals and satisfying their other closing conditions, it is possible that your Fund&#146;s Reorganization will not occur, even if shareholders of your Fund approve the
Reorganization and your Fund satisfies all of its closing conditions, if one or more of the other Funds do not obtain their requisite shareholder approvals or satisfy their closing conditions. If all the shareholder approvals are not obtained, each
Fund&#146;s Board may take such actions as it deems in the best interests of such Fund, including conducting additional solicitations with respect to the proposals or continuing to operate the Fund as a stand-alone fund. </FONT></TD></TR></TABLE>

Reorganizations comprised of forecasted cost savings (excluding the costs of leverage) and distribution increases, if any, to each Fund during the first year following the Reorganizations. Common shareholders will indirectly bear the costs of the
Reorganizations. The costs of the Reorganizations are estimated to be $320,000 for the Acquiring Fund, $45,000 for Premier Opportunity and $540,000 for Premium Opportunity. Preferred shareholders are not expected to bear any costs of the
Reorganizations. The Reorganizations are expected to result in cost savings (excluding the costs of leverage) over time for the common shareholders of each Fund (as common shareholders of the Acquiring Fund following the Reorganizations). Although
the anticipated total annual operating expenses per common share of the combined fund (including the costs of leverage) are expected to be higher for Acquired Fund shareholders due to the increased levels of leverage and higher proportion of
fixed-rate leverage in the combined fund, such leverage may produce higher returns for common shares over time to the extent that the returns obtained from investing leverage proceeds exceed the costs of leverage. </FONT></TD></TR></TABLE>

the closing of the Reorganizations is contingent on each Acquired Fund and the Acquiring Fund obtaining the requisite shareholder approvals and satisfying (or obtaining the waiver of) other closing conditions, it is possible that your Fund&#146;s

<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:7%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Board of Nuveen&#146;s municipal closed-end funds has approved a series of mergers of municipal closed-end funds, including the
reorganization of each of the Acquired Funds into the Acquiring Fund. Each Board has determined that the Reorganization proposed for its Fund would be in the best interests of such Fund. The Acquiring Fund and the Acquired Funds have similar
investment objectives and policies, and substantially similar portfolio compositions. The proposed Reorganizations are intended to enhance the secondary trading market for common shares of the Funds and to result in lower operating expenses per
common share (excluding the costs of leverage) due to economies of scale resulting from the larger size of the combined fund. Although the anticipated total annual operating expenses per common share of the combined fund are expected to be higher
for each Acquired Fund due to the increased levels of leverage and higher proportion of fixed-rate leverage in the combined fund, such leverage may produce higher returns for common shares over time. In order for the Reorganizations to occur, each
Fund must obtain the requisite shareholder approvals as well as certain consents, confirmations and/or waivers from various third parties, including liquidity providers and rating agencies with respect to outstanding preferred shares. Because the
closing of the Reorganizations is contingent on both Acquired Funds and the Acquiring Fund satisfying (or obtaining the waiver of) their respective closing conditions, it is possible that your Fund&#146;s Reorganization will not occur, even if
shareholders of your Fund approve the Reorganization and your Fund satisfies all of its closing conditions. If the requisite shareholder approvals are not obtained, each Fund&#146;s Board may take such actions as it deems in the best interest of its
Fund including conducting additional solicitations with respect to the proposals or continuing to operate the Fund as a stand-alone fund. For a fuller discussion of the Boards&#146; considerations regarding the approval of the Reorganizations, see

conditions, substantially to the effect that each proposed Reorganization will qualify as a tax-free reorganization under Section&nbsp;368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the &#147;Code&#148;). In addition, Sidley Austin LLP, as

of the Reorganizations. It is also expected that shareholders of each Acquired Fund who receive Acquiring Fund common shares </FONT></P>

pursuant to a Reorganization will recognize no gain or loss for federal income tax purposes, except that gain or loss may be recognized with respect to any cash received in lieu of fractional
Acquiring Fund common shares being issued. Prior to the closing of the Reorganizations, each Acquired Fund expects to declare a distribution of all of its net investment income and net capital gains, if any. All or a portion of such distribution may
be taxable to an Acquired Fund&#146;s shareholders for federal income tax purposes. In addition, to the extent that an Acquired Fund&#146;s portfolio securities are sold in connection with a Reorganization, such Acquired Fund may realize gains or
losses, which may increase or decrease the net taxable dividends and capital gain to be distributed by the Acquired Fund. However, since each Acquired Fund&#146;s current portfolio composition is substantially similar to that of the Acquiring Fund
and neither Acquired Fund holds portfolio securities subject to the federal alternative minimum tax applicable to individuals (the &#147;AMT&#148;), it is not currently expected that any significant portfolio sales will occur solely in connection

<TD ALIGN="left" VALIGN="top"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">&#147;Interest and Related Expenses from Inverse Floaters and Preferred Shares&#148; arises because accounting rules require the Funds to treat interest paid by trusts
issuing certain inverse floating rate investments held by the Funds as having been paid (indirectly) by the Funds. Because the Funds also recognize corresponding amounts of interest income (also indirectly), each Fund&#146;s common share net asset
value, net investment income and total return are not affected by this accounting treatment. The actual &#147;Interest and Related Expenses from Inverse Floaters and Preferred Shares&#148; incurred in the future may be higher or lower. Dividends
paid on each Fund&#146;s currently outstanding preferred shares are recognized as interest expense for financial reporting purposes. </FONT></TD></TR></TABLE> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:7%"><FONT

instruments, including municipal securities, have experienced periods of extreme illiquidity and volatility since the latter half of 2007. General market uncertainty and consequent repricing risk have led to market imbalances of sellers and buyers,
which in turn have resulted in significant valuation uncertainties in a variety of debt securities, including municipal securities. These conditions resulted, and in many cases continue to result, in greater volatility, less liquidity, widening
credit spreads and a lack of price transparency, with many debt securities remaining illiquid and of uncertain value. These market conditions may make valuation of some of the Funds&#146; municipal securities uncertain and/or result in sudden and
significant valuation increases or declines in its holdings. A significant decline in the value of your Fund&#146;s portfolio would likely result in a significant decline in the value of the Fund&#146;s common shares. In addition, illiquidity and
volatility in the credit markets may directly and adversely affect distributions on the common shares and preferred shares. This volatility may also impact the liquidity of inverse floating rate securities in your Fund&#146;s portfolio. See

markets in bonds on a principal basis using their proprietary capital, and during the recent market turmoil these firms&#146; capital became severely constrained. As a result, some firms were unwilling to commit their capital to purchase and to
serve as a dealer for municipal securities. The amount of public information available about the municipal securities in each Fund&#146;s portfolio is generally less than that for corporate equities or bonds, and the Funds&#146; investment
performance may therefore be more dependent on the Adviser&#146;s analytical abilities than if the Funds were to invest in stocks or taxable bonds. As noted above, the secondary market for municipal securities also tends to be less well developed or
liquid than many other securities markets, which may adversely affect a Fund&#146;s ability to sell its municipal securities at attractive prices or at prices approximating those at which each Fund currently values them. Municipal securities may
contain redemption provisions, which may allow the securities to be called or redeemed prior to their stated maturity, potentially resulting in the distribution of principal and a reduction in subsequent interest distributions. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:7%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The ability of municipal issuers to make timely payments of interest and principal may be diminished during general economic downturns
and as governmental cost burdens are reallocated among federal, state and local governments. If the current national economic recession continues, the ability of municipalities to collect revenue and service their obligations could be materially and
adversely affected. The taxing power of any government entity may be limited by provisions of state constitutions or laws, and an entity&#146;s credit will depend on many factors, including the entity&#146;s tax base, the extent to which the entity
relies on federal or state aid, and other factors which are beyond the entity&#146;s control. In addition, laws enacted in the future by Congress or state legislatures or referenda could extend the time for payment of principal and/or interest, or
impose other constraints on enforcement of such obligations, or on the ability of municipalities to levy taxes. Issuers of municipal securities might seek protection under the bankruptcy laws. In the event of bankruptcy of such an issuer, a Fund
could experience delays in collecting principal and interest and a Fund may not, in all circumstances, be able to collect all principal and interest to which it is entitled. To enforce its rights in the event of a default in the payment of interest
or repayment of principal, or both, a Fund may take possession of and manage the assets securing the issuer&#146;s obligations on such securities, which may increase a Fund&#146;s operating expenses. Any income derived from a Fund&#146;s ownership
or operation of such assets may not be tax-exempt and may not be of the type that would allow a Fund to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company. </FONT></P>

STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Inverse Floating Rate Securities Risk.</I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Each Fund can have substantial exposure to municipal inverse floating rate securities, which are securities whose interest rates bear
an inverse relationship to the interest rate on another security or the value of an index, and which represent a leveraged investment in underlying municipal bonds. Typically, an inverse floating rate security represents a residual beneficial
interest in a special purpose trust into which a third-party sponsor has deposited municipal bonds, and which issues floating rate securities to short-term investors and inverse floating rate securities to long-term investors such as the Funds.
Income on typical inverse floating rate securities will decrease when short-term interest rates increase and increase when short-term interest rates decrease, so investments in inverse floating rate securities offer the opportunity for higher income
than the underlying bond, but will subject a Fund to the risk of lower or even no income if short-term interest rates rise sufficiently. Inverse floating rate securities represent a leveraged investment in the underlying municipal bond deposited.
The value of an inverse floating rate security will increase or decrease in value by a multiple of the increase or decrease of the market value of its underlying bond due to changes in market interest rates or the bond&#146;s creditworthiness. That
multiple is dependent on the ratio of the special purpose trust&#146;s floating rate securities to its inverse floating rate securities, and can exceed three times for more &#147;highly leveraged&#148; trusts. Thus, when investing in an inverse
floating rate security rather than directly in the underlying bond, a Fund will experience a greater increase in its common net asset value if the underlying municipal bond increases in value, but will also experience a correspondingly larger
decline in its common net asset value if the underlying bond declines in value, which will make a Fund&#146;s net asset value more volatile. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:7%"><FONT

Risk.</I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Leverage risk is the risk associated with borrowings, the issuance of preferred shares or the use of inverse floating rate securities to leverage the common shares. There can be no assurance that a Fund&#146;s
leveraging strategy will be successful. Through the use of financial leverage, the Funds seek to enhance potential common share earnings over time by borrowing or issuing preferred shares at short-term municipal rates and investing at long-term
municipal rates which are typically, though not always, higher. The types of leverage used by the Funds may pay fixed rates of interest or dividends or may fluctuate with short-term yields. The benefits from leverage will be reduced (increased) to
the extent that the difference narrows (widens) between the net earnings on a Fund&#146;s portfolio securities and its cost of leverage. If short-term rates rise and a Fund&#146;s leverage costs fluctuate, a Fund&#146;s cost of leverage could exceed
the rate of return on longer-term bonds held by the Fund that were acquired during periods of lower interest rates, reducing returns to common shareholders. A Fund&#146;s cost of leverage includes both the interest rate paid on its borrowings or
dividends on preferred shares as well as any ongoing fees and expenses associated with those borrowings or preferred shares. The Funds also bear the costs of borrowing facilities, issuing its shares and refinancing such leverage. To the extent that
the Funds issue preferred shares with relatively short terms to redemption (e.g., MTP Shares or VMTP Shares), refinancing risk will increase. To the extent that Funds issue preferred shares with a liquidity provider feature (e.g., VRDP Shares), the
Fund is subject to refinancing risk if the liquidity provider acquires VRDP Shares pursuant to its purchase obligation and holds them for six months of unsuccessful remarketings, triggering a mandatory redemption. Refinancing risk is the risk that
the Fund is unable to replace existing leverage at all or on favorable terms. If the Fund is unable to replace its leverage upon a term redemption date or other mandatory redemption of MTP Shares or VMTP Shares or upon a mandatory redemption of VRDP
Shares, it may be forced to reduce leverage and sell portfolio securities when it otherwise would not do </FONT></P>

asset value risk because the full impact of price changes in the Fund&#146;s investment portfolio, including assets attributable to leverage, is borne by common shareholders. This can lead to a greater increase in net asset values in rising markets
than if a Fund were not leveraged, but it also can result in a greater decrease in net asset values in declining markets. A Fund&#146;s use of financial leverage similarly can magnify the impact of changing market conditions on common share market

Risk.</I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;To qualify for the favorable U.S. federal income tax treatment generally accorded to regulated investment companies, among other things, a Fund must derive in each taxable year at least 90% of its gross income from
certain prescribed sources. If for any taxable year a Fund does not qualify as a regulated investment company, all of its taxable income (including its net capital gain) would be subject to federal income tax at regular corporate rates without any
deduction for distributions to shareholders, and all distributions from the Fund (including underlying distributions attributable to tax exempt interest income) would be taxable to shareholders as ordinary dividends to the extent of the Fund&#146;s
current and accumulated earnings and profits. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:7%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The value of a Fund&#146;s investments and its net asset value may be adversely
affected by changes in tax rates and policies. Because interest income from municipal securities held by a Fund is normally not subject to regular federal income tax, the attractiveness of municipal securities in relation to other investment
alternatives is affected by changes in federal income tax rates or changes in the tax-exempt status of interest income from municipal securities. Any proposed or actual changes in such rates or exempt status, therefore, can significantly affect the
demand for and supply, liquidity and marketability of municipal securities. This could in turn affect a Fund&#146;s net asset value and ability to acquire and dispose of municipal securities at desirable yield and price levels. Additionally, the
Funds are not suitable investments for individual retirement accounts, for other tax-exempt or tax-deferred accounts or for investors who are not sensitive to the federal income tax consequences of their investments. </FONT></P>

acquisition of such a municipal security, however, the security may be determined to pay, or to have paid, taxable income. As a result, the treatment of dividends previously paid or to be paid by a Fund as &#147;exempt-interest dividends&#148; could

a Fund&#146;s net income. When a Fund borrows money, it must pay interest and other fees, which will reduce the Fund&#146;s returns if such costs exceed the returns on the portfolio securities purchased or retained with such borrowings. Any such

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. Although the obligations may be secured by the leased
equipment or facilities, the disposition of the property in the event of non-appropriation or foreclosure might prove difficult, time consuming and costly, and may result in a delay in recovering or the failure to fully recover a Fund&#146;s
original investment. In the event of non-appropriation, the issuer would be in default and taking ownership of the assets may be a remedy available to a Fund, although each Fund does not anticipate that such a remedy would normally be pursued. To
the extent that a Fund invests in unrated municipal leases or participates in such leases, the credit quality rating and risk of cancellation of such unrated leases will be monitored on an ongoing basis. Certificates of participation, which
represent interests in unmanaged pools of municipal leases or installment contracts, involve the same risks as the underlying municipal leases. In addition, a Fund may be dependent upon the municipal authority issuing the certificates of
participation to exercise remedies with respect to the underlying securities. Certificates of participation also entail a risk of default or bankruptcy, both of the issuer of the municipal lease and also the municipal agency issuing the certificate

<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:7%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Distributions.</I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Undistributed net investment income represents net earnings from a Fund&#146;s investment
portfolio that over time have not been distributed to shareholders. Under the terms of the Agreement, each Acquired Fund that has undistributed net investment income on undistributed net capital gains is required to declare a distribution, which,
together with all previous dividends have the effect of distributing to its shareholders all undistributed net investment income and undistributed realized net capital gains (after reduction by any available capital loss carryforwards) for all
taxable periods ending on or before the Closing Date. The Acquiring Fund is not subject to a similar distribution requirement; however, it is anticipated that the Acquiring Fund will declare a distribution prior to the Closing Date which will result
in the distribution of a portion of its undistributed net investment income. Consequently, Acquired Fund shareholders effectively will purchase a pro rata portion of the Acquiring Fund&#146;s remaining undistributed net investment income and
undistributed realized net capital gains, if any, which may be more or less than the Acquired Fund&#146;s undistributed net investment income and undistributed realized net capital gains per share immediately preceding the distributions described
above, if any. As a result, the Acquiring Fund&#146;s existing shareholders will experience a corresponding reduction in their respective portion of undistributed net investment income and undistributed realized net capital gains per share, if any,
such that the Acquiring Fund&#146;s undistributed net investment income and undistributed realized net capital gains per share immediately following the Reorganizations is expected to be less than the Acquiring Fund&#146;s undistributed net
investment income and undistributed realized net capital gains per share immediately preceding the Reorganizations, if any. </FONT></P>

STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Compatibility of Investment Objectives, Policies and Related Risks.</I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Based on the information presented, the Boards noted that the investment objectives, policies and risks of
the Funds are similar. The Boards noted that each Fund is a diversified fund that invests primarily in municipal securities and other related investments the income from which is exempt from regular federal income tax and, with respect to the
Acquiring Fund, from the federal AMT. Each Fund also emphasizes investments in investment grade municipal securities. The Boards considered that the portfolio composition of each Fund is substantially similar and considered the impact of the
applicable Reorganization on each Fund&#146;s portfolio, including any shifts in sector allocations, credit ratings, duration, yield and leverage costs. The Boards also recognized that each Fund utilizes leverage. Because the Funds have similar
investment strategies, the principal risks of each Fund are also similar. However, the Acquiring Fund&#146;s policy of generally investing in bonds that are exempt from the federal AMT applicable to individuals may prevent the Acquiring Fund from
investing in certain kinds of bonds. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:7%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Consistency of Portfolio Management.</I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Boards noted that
each Fund has the same investment adviser and sub-adviser and that the portfolio manager for the Acquiring Fund and Premier Opportunity would continue to manage the Acquiring Fund upon completion of the Reorganizations. Through the Reorganizations,
the Boards recognized that shareholders will remain invested in a closed-end management investment company that will have greater net assets and benefits from potential economies of scale; the same investment adviser and sub-adviser; and similar
investment objectives and investment strategies. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:7%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Improved Economies of Scale and Potential for Lower Operating Expenses
(Excluding the Costs of Leverage).</I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Boards considered the fees and expense ratios of each of the Funds (including estimated expenses of the Acquiring Fund following the Reorganizations). As a result of the greater
economies of scale from the larger asset size of the Acquiring Fund after the Reorganizations, the Boards noted that it was expected that the effective management fee rate (as a percentage of average daily Managed Assets) and net operating expenses
per common share (excluding the costs of leverage) of the combined fund would be lower than that of the Acquiring Fund and the Acquired Funds prior to the Reorganizations. It is anticipated that the Funds will benefit from the larger asset size as
fixed costs are shared over a larger asset base. In addition, as each Fund utilizes leverage, the Boards considered the differences in the costs of leverage among the Funds and the impact of the

Reorganizations on such costs. In this connection, the Boards noted the Adviser&#146;s position that the greater asset size of the combined fund may provide greater flexibility in managing the
structure and costs of leverage over time. Further, although the anticipated total annual operating expenses per common share of the combined fund (including the costs of leverage) are expected to be higher for each Acquired Fund due to the
increased levels of leverage and higher proportion of fixed-rate leverage in the combined fund, such leverage may produce higher returns for common shares over time to the extent that the returns obtained from investing leverage proceeds exceed the
costs of leverage. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:7%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Potential for Improved Secondary Market Trading with Respect to the Common
Shares.</I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;While it is not possible to predict trading levels at the time the Reorganizations close, the Boards noted that the Reorganizations are being proposed, in part, to seek to enhance the secondary trading market for
the common shares of the Funds. The Boards considered that&nbsp;the potential for higher common share net earnings and enhanced total returns over time may increase investor interest in the combined fund which would result in increased market
liquidity. The Acquiring Fund&#146;s greater share volume may result in increased market liquidity after the Reorganizations, which may lead to narrower bid-ask spreads and smaller trade-to-trade price movements. In addition, Acquired Fund common
shareholders may experience improved secondary market trading after the Reorganizations because the Acquiring Fund&#146;s policy of investing primarily in municipal securities exempt from the federal AMT applicable to individuals, which is not
currently in place with respect to the Acquired Funds, may appeal to a broader group of investors. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:7%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Anticipated Tax-Free
Reorganizations.</I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Reorganizations will be structured with the intention that they qualify as tax-free reorganizations for federal income tax purposes, and the Funds will obtain an opinion of counsel substantially to
this effect (based on certain factual representations and certain customary assumptions). </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:7%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Expected Costs of the
Reorganizations.</I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Boards considered the terms and conditions of the Agreement, including the estimated costs associated with the Reorganizations and the allocation of such costs among the Acquiring Fund and each
Acquired Fund. The Boards noted, however, that, assuming the Reorganizations are consummated, the Adviser anticipated that the projected costs of each Reorganization may be recovered over time for the common shareholders and that preferred
shareholders are not expected to bear any costs of the Reorganizations. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:7%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Terms of the Reorganizations and Impact on
Shareholders.</I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The terms of the Reorganizations are intended to avoid dilution of the interests with respect to net asset value of the existing shareholders of the Funds. In this regard, the Boards considered that each
holder of common shares of an Acquired Fund would own common shares of the Acquiring Fund (taking into account any fractional shares to which the shareholder would be entitled) equal to the aggregate per share net asset value of that
shareholder&#146;s Acquired Fund common shares as of the Valuation Time. No fractional common shares of the Acquiring Fund, however, will be issued to shareholders in connection with the Reorganizations and, in lieu of such fractional shares, an
Acquired Fund&#146;s common shareholders will receive cash. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:7%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">With respect to preferred shareholders of the Acquired Funds,
preferred shareholders of each Acquired Fund will receive the same number of Acquiring Fund VRDP Shares having substantially similar terms as the outstanding preferred shares of the Acquired Fund held by such preferred shareholders immediately prior

Premier Opportunity is organized as a Minnesota corporation and that the Acquiring Fund and Premium Opportunity are each organized as Massachusetts business trusts. In this regard, the Boards noted that, unlike a Massachusetts business trust, many
aspects of the corporate governance of a Minnesota corporation are prescribed by state statutory law. In addition, the Boards are aware that the structure of the Boards of the Massachusetts Funds differs from that of the Minnesota Fund. </FONT></P>

may result in some benefits and economies for the Adviser and its affiliates. These may include, for example, a reduction in the level of operational expenses incurred for administrative, compliance and portfolio management services as a result of
the elimination of the Acquired Funds as separate Funds in the Nuveen complex. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:7%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Conclusion.</I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Each

mandatory redemption dates as the Acquired Fund shares exchanged therefor. VRDP shareholders will have the right to give notice on any business day to tender the securities for remarketing in seven days. VRDP Shares will also be subject to a

<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:7%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Acquiring Fund and Premium Opportunity are each a Massachusetts business trust. A fund organized as a Massachusetts business trust is
governed by the trust&#146;s declaration of trust or similar instrument. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:7%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Massachusetts law allows the trustees of a business
trust to set the terms of a fund&#146;s governance in its declaration. All power and authority to manage the fund and its affairs generally reside with the trustees, and shareholder voting and other rights are limited to those provided to the
shareholders in the declaration. Because Massachusetts law governing business trusts provides more flexibility compared to typical state corporate statutes, the Massachusetts business trust is a common form of organization for closed-end funds.
However, some consider it less desirable than other entities because it relies on the terms of the applicable declaration and judicial interpretations rather than statutory provisions for substantive issues, such as the personal liability of
shareholders and trustees, and does not provide the level of certitude that corporate laws like those of Minnesota, or newer statutory trust laws, such as those of Delaware, provide. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:7%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Premier Opportunity is a Minnesota corporation. A fund organized as a Minnesota corporation is governed both by the MBCA and the
Minnesota corporation&#146;s articles of incorporation and by-laws. For a Minnesota corporation, unlike a Massachusetts business trust, the MBCA prescribes many aspects of corporate governance. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:7%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Shareholders of a Minnesota corporation generally are shielded from personal liability for the corporation&#146;s debts or obligations.
Shareholders of a Massachusetts business trust, on the other hand, are not afforded the statutory limitation of personal liability generally afforded to shareholders of a corporation from the trust&#146;s liabilities. Instead, the declaration of
trust of a fund organized as a Massachusetts business trust typically provides that a shareholder will not be personally liable, and further provides for indemnification to the extent that a shareholder is found personally liable, for the
fund&#146;s acts or obligations. The declaration of trust for each of the Acquiring Fund and Premium Opportunity contains such provisions. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:7%"><FONT
STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Similarly, the trustees of a Massachusetts business trust are not afforded statutory protection from personal liability for the obligations of the trust. The directors of a Minnesota corporation, on the
other hand, generally are shielded from personal liability for the corporation&#146;s acts or obligations by the MBCA. Courts in Massachusetts have, however, recognized limitations of a trustee&#146;s personal liability in contract actions for the
obligations of a trust contained in the trust&#146;s declaration, and declarations may also provide that trustees may be indemnified out of the assets of the trust to the extent held personally liable. The declaration of trust for each of the
Acquiring Fund and Premium Opportunity contains such provisions. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:7%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B><I>Massachusetts Business Trusts </I></B></FONT></P>

interest of the Fund entitled to vote at a meeting shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business. The declaration of trust of each Massachusetts Fund provides that the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares present
in person or by proxy and entitled to vote at a meeting of shareholders at which a quorum is present is required to approve a matter, except in the case of the election of trustees, which only requires a plurality vote, and for events to which other
voting provisions apply under the 1940 Act or the declaration of trust and by-laws, such as the super-majority voting provisions with respect to a merger, consolidation or dissolution of, or sale of substantially all of the assets by, the Fund, or

portfolio maturity of 15 to 30 years, although this may be shortened depending on market conditions. If the long-term municipal security market is unstable, a Fund may temporarily invest up to 100% of its assets in temporary investments. Temporary
investments are high-quality, generally uninsured, short-term municipal securities that may either be tax-exempt or taxable. A Fund will buy taxable temporary investments only if suitable tax-exempt temporary investments are not available at
reasonable prices and yields. A Fund will invest only in taxable temporary securities that are U.S. Government securities or corporate debt securities rated within the highest grade by Moody&#146;s, S&amp;P or Fitch, and that mature within one year
from the date of purchase or carry a variable or floating rate of interest. Each Fund&#146;s policies on securities ratings only apply when a Fund buys a security, and a Fund is not required to sell securities that have been downgraded. Each Fund
also may invest in taxable temporary investments that are certificates of deposit from U.S. banks with assets of at least $1 billion, or repurchase agreements. Each Fund seeks to allocate taxable income on temporary investments, if any,
proportionately between common shares and preferred shares, based on the percentage of total dividends distributed to each class for that year. </FONT></P>

facilities, refinancing outstanding obligations, and financing internal operating expenses. Municipal securities are generally either general obligation bonds, which are backed by the full faith and credit of the issuer and may be repaid from any
revenue source, or revenue bonds, which may be repaid only from the revenues of a specific facility or source. The Funds also may buy municipal securities that represent interests in lease obligations. These securities carry special risks because
the issuer may not be required to appropriate money annually to make payments under the lease. To reduce this risk, the Funds will only buy these securities where the issuer has a strong incentive to continue making appropriations until the
municipal security matures. The Funds do not have any limits on investing in lease obligations that do not contain a &#147;non-appropriation&#148; clause. Each Fund may invest no more than 10% of its net assets in municipal securities issued by U.S.
possessions or territories, which pay interest exempt from regular federal income tax. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:7%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Funds may buy municipal securities

STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Yields on municipal securities depend on many factors, including the condition of the general money market and the municipal security market, the size of a particular offering, and the maturity and rating
of a particular municipal security. Moody&#146;s, S&amp;P&#146;s and Fitch&#146;s ratings represent their opinions of the quality of a particular municipal security, but these ratings are general and are not absolute quality standards. Therefore,
municipal securities with the same maturity, coupon, and rating may have different yields, while municipal securities with the same maturity and coupon and different ratings may have the same yield. The market value of municipal securities will vary
with changes in interest rates and in the ability of their issuers to make interest and principal payments. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:7%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Obligations of
municipal security issuers are subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, and other laws affecting the rights and remedies of creditors. These obligations also may be subject to future federal or state laws or referenda that extend the time to payment of
interest and/or principal, or that constrain the enforcement of these obligations or the power of municipalities to levy taxes. Legislation or other conditions may materially affect the power of a municipal security issuer to pay interest and/or

municipal securities that represent lease obligations and certificates of participation in such leases. These carry special risks because the issuer of the securities may not be obligated to appropriate money annually to make payments under the
lease. A municipal lease is an obligation in the form of a lease or installment purchase that is issued by a state or local government to acquire equipment and facilities. Income from such obligations generally is exempt from state and local taxes

issuance of debt. The debt issuance limitations are deemed to be inapplicable because of the inclusion in many leases or contracts of &#147;non-appropriation&#148; 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 issuer is prevented from maintaining occupancy of the leased premises or utilizing the leased equipment or facilities. Although the obligations may be secured by the leased
equipment or facilities, the disposition of the property in the event of non-appropriation or foreclosure might prove difficult, time consuming and costly, and result in a delay in recovering, or the failure to recover fully, a Fund&#146;s original
investment. To the extent that the Funds invest in unrated municipal leases or participates in such leases, the credit quality rating and risk of cancellation of such unrated leases will be monitored on an ongoing basis. In order to reduce this
risk, the Funds purchase only municipal securities representing lease obligations where the Adviser believes the issuer has a strong incentive to continue making appropriations until maturity. </FONT></P>

agreement or other instruments. The certificates are typically issued by a municipal agency, a trust or other entity that has received an assignment of the payments to be made by the state or political subdivision under such leases or installment
purchase agreements. Such certificates provide the Funds with the right to a pro rata undivided interest in the underlying municipal securities. In addition, such participations generally provide the Funds with the right to demand payment, on not

STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Municipal Notes.</I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Municipal securities in the form of notes generally are used to provide for short-term capital needs, in anticipation of an issuer&#146;s receipt of other
revenues or financing, and typically have maturities of up to three years. Such instruments may include tax anticipation notes, revenue anticipation notes, bond anticipation notes, tax and revenue anticipation notes and construction loan notes. Tax
anticipation notes are issued to finance the working capital needs of governments. Generally, they are issued in anticipation of various tax revenues, such as income, sales, property, use and business taxes, and are payable from these specific
future taxes. Revenue anticipation notes are issued in expectation of receipt of other kinds of revenue, such as federal revenues available under federal revenue-sharing programs. Bond anticipation notes are issued to provide interim financing until
long-term bond financing can be arranged. In most cases, the long-term bonds then provide the funds needed for repayment of the bond anticipation notes. Tax and revenue anticipation notes combine the funding sources of both tax anticipation notes
and revenue anticipation notes. Construction loan notes are sold to provide construction financing. Mortgage notes insured by the Federal Housing Authority secure these notes; however, the proceeds from the insurance may be less than the economic
equivalent of the payment of principal and interest on the mortgage note if there has been a default. The anticipated revenues from taxes, grants or bond financings generally secure the obligations of an issuer of municipal notes. An investment in
such instruments, however, presents a risk that the anticipated revenues will not be received or that such revenues will be insufficient to satisfy the issuer&#146;s payment obligations under the notes or that refinancing will be otherwise
unavailable. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:7%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Pre-Refunded Municipal Securities.</I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The principal of, and interest on, pre-refunded

pre-refunded municipal securities. Issuers of municipal securities use this advance refunding technique to obtain more favorable terms with respect to securities that are not yet subject to call

for the pre-refunded municipal securities. However, except for a change in the revenue source from which principal and interest payments are made, the pre-refunded municipal securities remain outstanding on their original terms until they mature or

municipal bonds. The special purpose trust typically sells two classes of beneficial interests or securities: floating rate securities (sometimes referred to as short-term floaters or tender option bonds) and inverse floating rate securities
(sometimes referred to as inverse floaters or residual interest securities). Both classes of beneficial interests are represented by certificates. The short-term floating rate securities have first priority on the cash flow from the municipal bonds
held by the special purpose trust. Typically, a third party, such as a bank, broker-dealer or other financial institution, grants the floating rate security holders the option, at periodic intervals, to tender their securities to the institution and

<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:7%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Each Fund may invest in certain derivative instruments in pursuit of its investment objectives. Such instruments include financial
futures contracts, swap contracts (including interest rate and credit default swaps), options on financial futures, options on swap contracts or other derivative instruments. In particular, a Fund may use credit default swaps and interest rate
swaps. Credit default swaps may require initial premium (discount) payments as well as periodic payments (receipts) related to the interest leg of the swap or to the default of a reference obligation. If a Fund is a seller of a contract, the Fund
would be required to pay the par (or other agreed upon) value of a referenced debt obligation to the counterparty in the event of a default or other credit event by the reference issuer, such as a U.S. or foreign corporate issuer, with respect to
such debt obligations. In return, such Fund would receive from the counterparty a periodic stream of payments over the term of the contract provided that no event of default has occurred. If no default occurs, such Fund would keep the stream of
payments and would have no payment obligations. As the seller, a Fund would be subject to investment exposure on the notional amount of the swap. If a Fund is a buyer of a contract, the Fund would have the right to deliver a referenced debt
obligation and receive the par (or other agreed-upon) value of such debt obligation from the counterparty in the event of a default or other credit event (such as a credit downgrade) by the reference issuer, such as a U.S. or foreign corporation,
with respect to its debt obligations. In return, such Fund would pay the counterparty a periodic stream of payments over the term of the contract provided that no event of default has occurred. If no default occurs, the counterparty would keep the
stream of payments and would have no further obligations to such Fund. Interest rate swaps involve the exchange by a Fund with a counterparty of their respective commitments to pay or receive interest, such as an exchange of fixed-rate payments for
floating rate payments. A Fund will usually enter into interest rate swaps on a net basis; that is, the two payment streams will be netted out in a cash settlement on the payment date or dates specified in the instrument, with the Fund receiving or
paying, as the case may be, only the net amount of the two payments. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:7%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Adviser may use derivative instruments to seek to

sources of its income, the diversification of its assets and the distribution of its income. As a RIC, the Acquiring Fund is not expected to be subject to federal income tax on the income and gains it distributes to its shareholders. The Acquiring

imposes an alternative minimum tax with respect to corporations, individuals, trusts and estates. Interest on certain municipal obligations, such as certain private activity bonds, is included as
an item of tax preference in determining the amount of a taxpayer&#146;s alternative minimum taxable income. To the extent that the Acquiring Fund receives income from such municipal obligations, a portion of the dividends paid by the Acquiring
Fund, although exempt from regular federal income tax, will be taxable to shareholders to the extent that their tax liability is determined under the federal alternative minimum tax. The Acquiring Fund, however, attempts to limit income subject to
the federal alternative minimum tax applicable to individuals. The Acquiring Fund will annually provide a report indicating the percentage of the Acquiring Fund&#146;s income attributable to municipal obligations subject to the federal alternative
minimum tax. Corporations are subject to special rules in calculating their federal alternative minimum taxable income with respect to interest from such municipal obligations. </FONT></P>

Act generally would limit the exclusion from gross income of tax-exempt interest (which includes exempt-interest dividends received from the Acquiring Fund) for individuals whose adjusted gross income for federal income tax purposes exceeds certain
thresholds for taxable years beginning on or after January&nbsp;1, 2013 in order to provide a tax benefit not greater than 28% of such interest. Such proposal could affect the value of the municipal bonds owned by the Acquiring Fund. The likelihood

long-term capital gain or ordinary income (which may include short-term capital gains). These distributions may be subject to federal, state and local taxation, depending on a shareholder&#146;s situation. If so, they are taxable whether or not such
distributions are reinvested. Net capital gain distributions (the excess of net long-term capital gain over net short-term capital loss) are generally taxable at rates applicable to long-term capital gains regardless of how long a shareholder has
held its shares. Long-term capital gains are currently taxable to noncorporate shareholders at a maximum federal income tax rate of 15%. Absent further legislation, the maximum 15% rate on long-term capital gains will cease to apply to taxable years
beginning after December&nbsp;31, 2012. In addition, for taxable years beginning after December&nbsp;31, 2012, certain individuals, estates and trusts will be subject to a 3.8% Medicare tax on net investment income, including net capital gains and
other taxable dividends. The Acquiring Fund does not expect that any part of its distributions to shareholders from its investments will qualify for the dividends-received deduction available to corporate shareholders or as &#147;qualified dividend

</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:7%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The redemption, sale or exchange of shares normally will result in capital gain or loss to shareholders who hold their shares
as capital assets. Generally, a shareholder&#146;s gain or loss will be long-term capital gain or loss if the shares have been held for more than one year even though the increase in value in such shares is attributable to tax-exempt interest
income. The gain or loss on shares held for one year or less will generally be treated as short-term capital gain or loss. Present law taxes both long-term and short-term capital gains of corporations at the same rates applicable to ordinary income.
For non-corporate taxpayers, however, long-term capital gains are currently taxed at a maximum federal income tax rate of 15%, while short-term capital gains and other ordinary income are currently taxed at ordinary income rates. As noted above,
absent further legislation, the maximum rates applicable to long-term capital gains will cease to apply to taxable years beginning after December&nbsp;31, 2012 and an additional 3.8% Medicare tax may apply to certain individual, estate or trust
shareholders&#146; taxable distributions and to capital gain distributions for taxable years beginning after December&nbsp;31, 2012. Any loss on the sale of shares that have been held for six months or less will be disallowed to the extent of any
distribution of exempt-interest dividends received with respect to such shares, unless the shares are of a RIC that declares exempt-interest dividends on a daily basis in an amount equal to at least 90% of its net tax-exempt interest and distributes
such dividends on a monthly or more frequent basis. Any remaining loss on the sale or disposition of shares held for six months or less will be treated as a long-term capital loss to the extent of any net capital gain distributions received by the
shareholder on such shares. Any loss realized on a sale or exchange of shares of the Acquiring Fund will be disallowed to the extent those shares of the Acquiring Fund are replaced by other substantially identical shares of the Acquiring Fund or
other substantially identical stock or securities (including through reinvestment of dividends) within a period of 61 days beginning 30 days before and ending 30&nbsp;days after the date of disposition of the original shares. In that event, the
basis of the replacement shares will be adjusted to reflect the disallowed loss. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:7%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Any interest on indebtedness incurred or
continued to purchase or carry the Acquiring Fund&#146;s shares to which exempt-interest dividends are allocated is not deductible. Under certain applicable rules, the purchase or ownership of shares may be considered to have been made with borrowed

<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:7%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">If the Acquiring Fund invests in certain pay-in-kind securities, zero coupon securities, deferred interest securities or, in general, any
other securities with original issue discount (or with market discount if the Acquiring Fund elects to include market discount in income currently), the Acquiring Fund must accrue income on such investments for each taxable year, which generally
will be prior to the receipt of the corresponding cash payments. However, the Acquiring Fund must distribute to shareholders, at least annually, all or substantially all of its investment company taxable income (determined without regard to the
deduction for dividends paid) and its net tax-exempt income, including such accrued income, to qualify as a RIC and (with respect to its ordinary income and taxable gain) to avoid federal income and excise taxes. Therefore, the Acquiring Fund may
have to dispose of its portfolio securities under disadvantageous circumstances to generate cash, or may have to leverage itself by borrowing the cash, to satisfy these distribution requirements. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:7%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Acquiring Fund may hold or acquire municipal obligations that are market discount bonds. A market discount bond is a security
acquired in the secondary market at a price below its redemption value (or its adjusted issue price if it is also an original issue discount bond). If the Acquiring Fund invests in a market discount bond, it will be required to treat any gain
recognized on the disposition of such market discount bond as ordinary taxable income to the extent of the accrued market discount. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:7%"><FONT

fails to provide the Acquiring Fund with his or her correct taxpayer identification number or to make required certifications, or if the shareholder has been notified by the IRS (or the IRS notifies the Acquiring Fund) that he or she is subject to
backup withholding. The backup withholding percentage is 28% for amounts paid through 2012, after which time the rate will increase to 31% absent legislative change. Backup withholding is not an additional tax; rather, it is a way in which the IRS
ensures it will collect taxes otherwise due. Any amounts withheld may be credited against a shareholder&#146;s U.S. federal income tax liability. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT

net asset value per common share is determined as of the close of the regular session trading (normally 4:00&nbsp;p.m. Eastern time) on each day the NYSE is open for business. Net asset value is calculated by taking the market value of the Acquiring
Fund&#146;s total assets, including interest or dividends accrued but not yet collected, less all liabilities, and dividing by the total number of shares outstanding. The result, rounded to the nearest cent, is the net asset value per share. All
valuations are subject to review by the Acquiring Fund&#146;s Board or its delegate. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:7%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In determining net asset value per
common share, expenses are accrued and applied daily and securities and other assets for which market quotations are available are valued at market value. The prices of municipal bonds are provided by a pricing service approved by the Acquiring
Fund&#146;s Board. When market price quotes are not readily available (which is usually the case for municipal securities), the pricing service, or, in the absence of a pricing service for a particular security, the Board of the Acquiring Fund, or
its designee, may establish fair market value using a wide variety of market data including yields or prices of municipal bonds of comparable quality, type of issue, coupon, maturity and rating, market quotes or indications of value from securities
dealers, evaluations of anticipated cash flows or collateral, general market conditions and other information and analysis, including the obligor&#146;s credit characteristics considered relevant by the pricing service or the Board&#146;s designee.

VRDP Shares and percentage of total outstanding) is as follows: Premium Opportunity: Schwab (1,195 shares (54.57%)), Federated (919 shares (41.96%)), Morgan Stanley (76 shares (3.47%)); Premier Opportunity: Blackrock (69 shares (5.27%)), JP Morgan

investments described below. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:7%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>General.</I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Each Fund may invest in various municipal securities,
including municipal bonds and notes, other securities issued to finance and refinance public projects, and other related securities and derivative instruments creating exposure to municipal bonds, notes and securities that provide for the payment of
interest income that is exempt from regular federal income taxes (and, in the case of the Acquiring Fund, the federal alternative minimum tax applicable to individuals). Municipal securities are generally debt obligations issued by state and local
governmental entities and may be issued by U.S. territories to finance or refinance public projects such as roads, schools, and water supply systems. Municipal securities may also be issued for private activities, such as housing, medical and
educational facility construction, or for privately owned transportation, electric utility and pollution control projects. Municipal securities may be issued on a long term basis to provide permanent financing. The repayment of such debt may be
secured generally by a pledge of the full faith and credit taxing power of the issuer, a limited or special tax, or any other revenue source including project revenues, which may include tolls, fees and other user charges, lease payments, and
mortgage payments. Municipal securities may also be issued to finance projects on a short term interim basis, anticipating repayment with the proceeds on long term debt. Municipal securities may be issued and purchased in the form of bonds, notes,
leases or certificates of participation; structured as callable or non-callable; with payment forms including fixed coupon, variable rate, zero coupon, capital appreciation bonds, tender option bonds, and residual interest bonds or inverse floating
rate securities; or acquired through investments in pooled vehicles, partnerships or other investment companies. Inverse floating rate securities are securities that pay interest at rates that vary inversely with changes in prevailing short-term
tax-exempt interest rates and represent a leveraged investment in an underlying municipal security, which may increase the effective leverage of the Fund. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:7%"><FONT
STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The yields on municipal securities depend on a variety of factors, including prevailing interest rates and the condition of the general money market and the municipal bond market, the size of a particular
offering, the maturity of the obligation and the rating of the issue. The market value of municipal bonds will vary with changes in interest rate levels and as a result of changing evaluations of the ability of their issuers to meet interest and
principal payments. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:7%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Municipal Leases and Certificates of Participation.</I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Funds also may
purchase municipal securities that represent lease obligations and certificates of participation in such leases. These carry special risks because the issuer of the securities may not be obligated to appropriate money annually to make payments under
the lease. A municipal lease is an obligation in the form of a lease or installment purchase that is issued by a state or local government to acquire equipment and facilities. Income from such obligations generally is exempt from state and local
taxes in the state of issuance. 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 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
&#147;non-appropriation&#148; 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 issuer is prevented </FONT></P>

from maintaining occupancy of the leased premises or utilizing the leased equipment or facilities. Although the obligations may be secured by the leased equipment or facilities, the disposition
of the property in the event of non-appropriation or foreclosure might prove difficult, time consuming and costly, and result in a delay in recovering, or the failure to recover fully, a Fund&#146;s original investment. To the extent that a Fund
invests in unrated municipal leases or participates in such leases, the credit quality rating and risk of cancellation of such unrated leases will be monitored on an ongoing basis. In order to reduce this risk, the Funds will only purchase municipal
securities representing lease obligations where the Adviser believes the issuer has a strong incentive to continue making appropriations until maturity. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:7%"><FONT
STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">A certificate of participation represents an undivided interest in an unmanaged pool of municipal leases, an installment purchase agreement or other instruments. The certificates typically are issued by a
municipal agency, a trust or other entity that has received an assignment of the payments to be made by the state or political subdivision under such leases or installment purchase agreements. Such certificates provide the Funds with the right to a
<I>pro rata </I>undivided interest in the underlying municipal securities. In addition, such participations generally provide the Funds with the right to demand payment, on not more than seven days&#146; notice, of all or any part of a Fund&#146;s
participation interest in the underlying municipal securities, plus accrued interest. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:7%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Municipal
Notes.</I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Municipal securities in the form of notes generally are used to provide for short-term capital needs, in anticipation of an issuer&#146;s receipt of other revenues or financing, and typically have maturities of up
to three years. Such instruments may include tax anticipation notes, revenue anticipation notes, bond anticipation notes, tax and revenue anticipation notes and construction loan notes. Tax anticipation notes are issued to finance the working
capital needs of governments. Generally, they are issued in anticipation of various tax revenues, such as income, sales, property, use and business taxes, and are payable from these specific future taxes. Revenue anticipation notes are issued in
expectation of receipt of other kinds of revenue, such as federal revenues available under federal revenue sharing programs. Bond anticipation notes are issued to provide interim financing until long-term bond financing can be arranged. In most
cases, the long-term bonds then provide the funds needed for repayment of the bond anticipation notes. Tax and revenue anticipation notes combine the funding sources of both tax anticipation notes and revenue anticipation notes. Construction loan
notes are sold to provide construction financing. Mortgage notes insured by the Federal Housing Authority secure these notes; however, the proceeds from the insurance may be less than the economic equivalent of the payment of principal and interest
on the mortgage note if there has been a default. The anticipated revenues from taxes, grants or bond financing generally secure the obligations of an issuer of municipal notes. An investment in such instruments, however, presents a risk that the
anticipated revenues will not be received or that such revenues will be insufficient to satisfy the issuer&#146;s payment obligations under the notes or that refinancing will be otherwise unavailable. </FONT></P>

no longer paid from the original revenue source for the securities. Instead, the source of such payments is typically an escrow fund consisting of U.S. government securities. The assets in the escrow fund are derived from the proceeds of refunding
bonds issued by the same issuer as the pre-refunded municipal securities. Issuers of municipal securities use this advance refunding technique to obtain more favorable terms with respect to securities that are not yet subject to call or redemption
by the issuer. For example, advance refunding enables an issuer to refinance debt at lower market interest rates, restructure debt to improve cash flow or eliminate restrictive covenants in the indenture or other governing instrument for the
pre-refunded municipal securities. However, except for a change </FONT></P>

authorities to obtain funds to provide privately operated housing facilities, airport, mass transit or port facilities, sewage disposal, solid waste disposal or hazardous waste treatment or disposal facilities and certain local facilities for water
supply, gas or electricity. Other types of private activity bonds, the proceeds of which are used for the construction, equipment, repair or improvement of privately operated industrial or commercial facilities, may constitute municipal securities,
although the current federal tax laws place substantial limitations on the size of such issues. A Fund&#146;s distributions of its interest income from private activity bonds may subject certain investors to the federal alternative minimum tax.

infrastructure developments to induce residential, commercial and industrial growth and redevelopment. The bond financing methods such as tax increment finance, tax assessment, special services district and Mello-Roos bonds, generally are payable
solely from taxes or other revenues attributable to the specific projects financed by the bonds without recourse to the credit or taxing power of related or overlapping municipalities. They often are exposed to real estate development-related risks
and can have more taxpayer concentration risk than general tax-supported bonds, such as general obligation bonds. Further, the fees, special taxes, or tax allocations and other revenues that are established to secure such financings generally are
limited as to the rate or amount that may be levied or assessed and are not subject to increase pursuant to rate covenants or municipal or corporate guarantees. The bonds could default if development failed to progress as anticipated or if larger
taxpayers failed to pay the assessments, fees and taxes as provided in the financing plans of the districts. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:7%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The foregoing

municipal bonds held by the Funds are subject. Additionally, many factors including national economic, social and environmental policies and conditions, which are not within the control of the issuers of the municipal bonds, could affect or could
have an adverse impact on the financial condition of the issuers. The Funds are unable to predict whether or to what extent such factors or other factors may affect the issuers of the municipal bonds, the market value or marketability of the
municipal bonds or the ability of the respective issuers of the municipal bonds acquired by the Funds to pay interest on or principal of the municipal bonds. This information has not been independently verified. </FONT></P>

STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">&#147;Hedging&#148; is a term used for various methods of seeking to preserve portfolio capital value by offsetting price changes in one investment through making another investment whose price should
tend to move in the opposite direction. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:7%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">A &#147;derivative&#148; is a financial contract whose value is based on (or
&#147;derived&#148; from) a traditional security (such as a stock or a bond), an asset (such as a commodity like gold), or a market index (such as the Barclays Capital Municipal Bond Index). Some forms of derivatives may trade on exchanges, while
non-standardized derivatives, which tend to be more specialized and complex, trade in &#147;over-the-counter&#148; or a one-on-one basis. It may be desirable and possible in various market environments to partially hedge the portfolio against
fluctuations in market value due to market interest rate or credit quality fluctuations, or instead to gain a desired investment exposure, by entering into various types of derivative transactions, including financial futures and index futures as
well as related put and call options on such instruments, structured notes, or interest rate swaps on taxable or tax-exempt securities or indexes (which may be &#147;forward-starting&#148;), credit default swaps, and options on interest rate swaps,
among others. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:7%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">These transactions present certain risks. In particular, the imperfect correlation between price movements in
the futures contract and price movements in the securities being hedged creates the possibility that losses on the hedge by the Funds may be greater than gains in the value of the securities in the Funds&#146; portfolios. In addition, futures and
options markets may not be liquid in all circumstances. As a result, in volatile markets, the Funds may not be able to close out the transaction without incurring losses substantially greater than the initial deposit. Losses due to hedging
transactions will reduce the Funds&#146; net asset value which in turn could reduce yield. The Funds will not make any investment (whether an initial premium or deposit or a subsequent deposit) other than as necessary to close a prior investment if,
immediately after such investment, the sum of the amount of its premiums and deposits would exceed 15% of a Fund&#146;s Managed Assets. The Funds will invest in these instruments only in markets believed by the Adviser to be active and sufficiently
liquid. Successful implementation of most hedging strategies would generate taxable income. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:7%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Both parties entering into an
index or financial futures contract are required to post an initial deposit, typically equal to from 1% to 5% of the total contract price. Typically, option holders enter into offsetting closing transactions to enable settlement in cash rather than
take delivery of the position in the future of the underlying security. Interest rate swap and credit default swap transactions are typically entered on a net basis, meaning that the two payment streams are netted out with the Funds receiving or
paying, as the case may be, only the net amount of the two payments. The Funds will only sell covered futures contracts, which means that the Funds segregate assets equal to the amount of the obligations. </FONT></P>

an aggregate net asset value at least equal to the accrued excess will be segregated by the Funds. If the interest rate swap transaction is entered into on other than a net basis, the full amount of the Funds&#146; obligations will be accrued on a

specialized activity that involves investment techniques and risks different from those associated with ordinary portfolio securities transactions, including the risk that the counterparty may be unable to fulfill the transaction. If there is a

Swaps.</I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A credit default swap is an agreement between two counterparties, in which one party makes a periodic payment to the other party in exchange for a potential payoff if a third party (the &#147;reference credit&#148;)
defaults in the payment of its debt obligations. The Funds may enter into a credit default swap as the first party (or &#147;buyer&#148;) seeking to receive credit protection to hedge a specific portfolio holding. In this example, a counterparty is
the provider (or &#147;seller&#148;) of credit protection. Generally, credit default swaps may reference a specific entity or a pool of entities. The settlement of a credit default swap, upon the occurrence of a trigger event, may be accomplished by
means of physical delivery of the securities of the reference entity, or a cash payment. Entering into credit default swap agreements involves counterparty risks. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:7%"><FONT

amount times the difference between the value of a specific bond at the close of the last trading day of the contract and the price at which the agreement is made. No physical delivery of securities is made. Forward contracts are agreements to
purchase or sell a specified security or currency at a specified future date (or within a specified time period) and price set at the time of the contract. Forward contracts are usually entered into with banks, foreign exchange dealers or
broker-dealers and are usually for less than one year, but may be renewed. Forward contracts are generally purchased or sold in over-the-counter transactions. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:7%"><FONT

of the Securities and Exchange Commission is that the Funds&#146; long and short positions in futures contracts must be collateralized with cash or certain liquid assets held in a segregated account or &#147;covered&#148; in order to counter the

Transactions.</I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In order to seek to hedge the value of a Fund&#146;s portfolio or to seek to increase the Fund&#146;s return, the Fund may enter into various interest rate transactions such as interest rate swaps and the
purchase or sale of interest rate caps and floors. Each Fund may enter into these transactions to seek to increase its return, to preserve a return or spread on a particular investment or portion of its portfolio, or to seek to protect against any
increase in the price of securities the Fund anticipates purchasing at a later date. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:7%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Interest rate swaps involve a
Fund&#146;s agreement with the swap counterparty to pay a fixed rate payment in exchange for the counterparty agreeing to pay the Fund a payment at a variable rate that is expected to approximate the rate on the Fund&#146;s variable rate payment
obligations. The payment obligations would be based on the notional amount of the swap. The Funds may use an interest rate cap, which would require it to pay a premium to the cap counterparty and would entitle it, to the extent that a specified
variable rate index exceeds a predetermined fixed rate, to receive from the counterparty payment of the difference based on the notional amount. The Funds would use interest rate swaps or caps only with the intent to reduce or eliminate the risk
that an increase in short-term interest rates could have on common share net earnings as a result of leverage. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:7%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Funds will
usually enter into swaps or caps on a net basis; that is, the two payment streams will be netted out in a cash settlement on the payment date or dates specified in the instrument, with the Funds receiving or paying, as the case may be, only the net
amount of the two payments. The Funds intend to maintain in a segregated account with its custodian cash or liquid securities having a value at least equal to a Fund&#146;s net payment obligations under any swap transaction, marked-to-market daily.
</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:7%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The use of interest rate transactions, such as interest rate swaps and caps, is a highly specialized activity that involves
investment techniques and risks different from those associated with ordinary portfolio security transactions. Depending on the state of interest rates in general, the Funds&#146; use of interest rate swaps or caps could enhance or harm the overall
performance of a Fund&#146;s common shares. To the extent there is a decline in interest rates, the value of the interest rate swap or cap could decline, and could result in a decline in the net asset value of the common shares. In addition, if
short-term interest rates are lower than a Fund&#146;s fixed rate of payment on the interest rate swap, the swap will reduce common share net earnings. If, on the other hand, short-term interest rates are higher than the fixed rate of payment on the
interest rate swap, the swap will enhance common share net earnings. Buying interest rate caps could enhance the performance of the common shares by providing a maximum leverage expense. Buying interest rate caps could also decrease the net earnings
of the common shares in the event that the premium paid by a Fund to the counterparty exceeds the additional amount the Fund would have been required to pay had it not entered into the cap agreement. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:7%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Interest rate swaps and caps do not involve the delivery of securities or other underlying assets or principal. Accordingly, the risk of
loss with respect to interest rate swaps is limited to the net amount of interest payments that a Fund is contractually obligated to make. If the counterparty defaults, the Fund would not be able to use the anticipated net receipts under the swap or
cap to offset interest payments. Depending on whether the Fund would be entitled to receive net payments from the counterparty on the swap or cap, which in turn would depend on the general state of short-term interest rates at that point in time,
such a default could negatively impact the performance of the common shares. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:7%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Although this will not guarantee that the

the time a Fund purchases securities pursuant to a repurchase agreement, it simultaneously agrees to resell and redeliver such securities to the seller, who also simultaneously agrees to buy back the securities at a fixed price and time. This
assures a predetermined yield for a Fund during its holding period, since the resale price is always greater than the purchase price and reflects an agreed-upon market rate. Such actions afford an opportunity for the Funds to invest temporarily
available cash. The Funds may enter into repurchase agreements only with respect to obligations of the U.S. government, its agencies or instrumentalities; certificates of deposit; or bankers&#146; acceptances in which the Funds may invest.
Repurchase agreements may be considered loans to the seller, collateralized by the underlying securities. The risk to the Funds is limited to the ability of the seller to pay the agreed-upon sum on the repurchase date; in the event of default, the
repurchase agreement provides that the Funds are entitled to sell the underlying collateral. If the value of the collateral declines after the agreement is entered into, and if the seller defaults under a repurchase agreement when the value of the
underlying collateral is less than the repurchase price, the Funds could incur a loss of both principal and interest. The investment adviser monitors the value of the collateral at the time the action is entered into and at all times during the term
of the repurchase agreement. The Funds&#146; investment adviser does so in an effort to determine that the value of the collateral always equals or exceeds the agreed-upon repurchase price to be paid to the Funds. If the seller were to be subject to
a federal bankruptcy proceeding, the ability of the Funds to liquidate the collateral could be delayed or impaired because of certain provisions of the bankruptcy laws. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:7%"><FONT

(sometimes referred to as &#147;inverse floaters&#148;) are securities whose interest rates bear an inverse relationship to the interest rate on another security or the value of an index. Generally, inverse floating rate securities represent
beneficial interests in a special purpose trust formed by a third party sponsor for the purpose of holding municipal bonds. The special purpose trust typically sells two classes of beneficial interests or securities: floating rate securities
(sometimes referred to as short-term floaters or tender option bonds) and inverse floating rate securities (sometimes referred to as inverse floaters or residual interest securities). Both classes of beneficial interests are represented by
certificates. The short-term floating rate securities have first priority on the cash flow from the municipal bonds held by the special purpose trust. Typically, a third party, such as a bank, broker-dealer or other financial institution, grants the
floating rate security holders the option, at periodic intervals, to tender their securities to the institution and receive the face value thereof. As consideration for providing the option, the financial institution receives periodic fees. The
holder of the short-term floater effectively holds a demand obligation that bears interest at the prevailing short-term, tax-exempt rate. However, the institution granting the tender option will not be obligated to accept tendered short-term
floaters in the event of certain defaults or a significant downgrade in the credit rating assigned to the bond issuer. For its inverse floating rate investment, each Fund receives the residual cash flow from the special purpose trust. Because the
holder of the short-term floater is generally assured liquidity at the face value of the security, each Fund as the holder of the inverse floater assumes the interest rate cash flow risk and the market value risk associated with the municipal bond
deposited into the special purpose trust. The volatility of the interest cash flow and the residual market value will vary with the degree to which the trust is leveraged. This is expressed in the ratio of the face value of the short-term floaters
in relation to the inverse floaters that are issued by the special purpose trust. Each Fund expects to make limited investments in inverse floaters, with leverage ratios that may vary between one and three times. However, each Fund is permitted to
invest in highly leveraged inverse floating rate securities. In addition, all voting rights and decisions to be made with respect to any other rights relating to the municipal bonds held in the special purpose trust are passed through to a Fund, as
the holder of the residual inverse floating rate securities. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:7%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Because increases in either the interest rate on the securities
or the value of indexes (with which inverse floaters maintain their inverse relationship) reduce the residual interest paid on inverse floaters, inverse floaters&#146; value is generally more volatile than that of fixed rate bonds. The market price
of inverse floating rate securities is more volatile than the underlying securities due to leverage. These securities generally will underperform the market of fixed rate bonds in a rising interest rate environment but tend to outperform the market
of fixed rate bonds when interest rates decline or remain relatively stable. Although volatile, inverse floaters typically offer the potential for yields exceeding the yields available on fixed rate bonds with comparable credit quality, coupon, call
provisions and maturity. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:7%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Inverse floaters have varying degrees of liquidity or illiquidity based upon, among other things,

third party sponsor of a special purpose trust. Each Fund may enter into such recourse agreements (i)&nbsp;when the liquidity provider to the special purpose trust requires such an agreement
because the level of leverage in the trust exceeds the level that the liquidity provider is willing to support absent such an agreement; and/or (ii)&nbsp;to seek to prevent the liquidity provider from collapsing the trust in the event that the
municipal obligation held in the trust has declined in value. Such an agreement would require a Fund to reimburse the third party sponsor of such inverse floater, upon termination of the trust issuing the inverse floater, the difference between the
liquidation value of the bonds held in the trust and the principal amount due to the holders of floating rate interests. Such agreements may expose a Fund to a risk of loss that exceeds its investment in the inverse floating rate securities. Absent
a shortfall and forbearance agreement, each Fund would not be required to make such a reimbursement. If a Fund chooses not to enter into such an agreement, the special purpose trust could be liquidated, and such Fund could incur a loss. Each Fund
will segregate or earmark liquid assets with its custodian in accordance with the 1940 Act to cover its obligations with respect to its investments in special purpose trusts. See also &#147;Segregation of Assets&#148; in the Statement of Additional
Information. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:7%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Floating Rate Securities.</I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Each Fund may also invest in floating rate securities,
as described above, issued by special purpose trusts. Floating rate securities may take the form of short-term floating rate securities or the option period may be substantially longer. Generally, the interest rate earned will be based upon the
market rates for municipal securities with maturities or remarketing provisions that are comparable in duration to the periodic interval of the tender option, which may vary from weekly, to monthly, to extended periods of one year or multiple years.
Since the option feature has a shorter term than the final maturity or first call date of the underlying bond deposited in the trust, each Fund as the holder of the floating rate security relies upon the terms of the agreement with the financial
institution furnishing the option as well as the credit strength of that institution. As further assurance of liquidity, the terms of the trust provide for a liquidation of the municipal security deposited in the trust and the application of the
proceeds to pay off the floating rate security. The trusts that are organized to issue both short-term floating rate securities and inverse floaters generally include liquidation triggers to protect the investor in the floating rate security.

transactions, the payment obligation and the interest rate are fixed at the time the purchaser enters into the commitment. Beginning on the date a Fund enters into a commitment to purchase securities on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis, such
Fund is required under the rules of the SEC to maintain in a separate account liquid assets, consisting of cash, cash equivalents or liquid securities having a market value at all times of at least equal to the amount of any delayed payment
commitment. Income generated by any such assets which provide taxable income for federal income tax purposes is includable in the taxable income of such Fund and, to the extent distributed, will be taxable distributions to shareholders. Each Fund
may enter into contracts to purchase securities on a forward basis (i.e., where settlement will occur more than 60 days from the date of the transaction) only to the extent that the Fund specifically collateralizes such obligations with a security
that is expected to be called or mature within 60 days before or after the settlement date of the forward transaction. The commitment to purchase securities on a when-issued, delayed delivery or forward basis may involve an element of risk because
no interest accrues on the bonds prior to settlement and at the time of delivery the market value may be less than their cost. </FONT></P>

to duplicative expenses to the extent the Funds invest in other investment companies. The Adviser will take expenses into account when evaluating the investment merits of an investment in the investment company relative to available municipal bond
investments. In addition, the securities of other investment companies may also be leveraged and will therefore be subject to leverage risks. The net asset value and market value of leveraged shares will be more volatile and the yield to
shareholders will tend to fluctuate more than the yield generated by unleveraged shares. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>Other Investment Policies and Techniques
</B></FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:7%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Illiquid Securities.</I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Fund may invest in illiquid securities (i.e., securities that are
not readily marketable), including, but not limited to, restricted securities (securities the disposition of which is restricted under the federal securities laws), securities that may only be resold pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended (the &#147;Securities Act&#148;), and repurchase agreements with maturities in excess of seven days. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:7%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Restricted securities may be sold only in privately negotiated transactions or in a public offering with respect to which a registration
statement is in effect under the Securities Act. Where registration is required, the Funds may be obligated to pay all or part of the registration expenses and a considerable period may elapse between the time of the decision to sell and the time
the Funds may be permitted to sell a security under an effective registration statement. If, during such a period, adverse market conditions were to develop, the Funds might obtain a less favorable price than that which prevailed when it decided to
sell. Illiquid securities will be priced at a fair value as determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees or Board of Directors, as applicable, or its delegate. </FONT></P>

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:7%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Portfolio Trading and Turnover Rate.</I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Portfolio trading may be
undertaken to accomplish the investment objectives of the Funds in relation to actual and anticipated movements in interest rates. In addition, a security may be sold and another of comparable quality purchased at approximately the same time to take
advantage of what the Adviser believes to be a temporary price disparity between the two securities. Temporary price disparities between two comparable securities may result from supply and demand imbalances where, for example, a temporary
oversupply of certain bonds may cause a temporarily low price for such bonds, as compared with other bonds of like quality and characteristics. The Funds may also engage to a limited extent in short-term trading consistent with their investment
objectives. Securities may be sold in anticipation of a market decline (a rise in interest rates) or purchased in anticipation of a market rise (a decline in interest rates) and later sold, but the Funds will not engage in trading solely to
recognize a gain. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:7%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Subject to the foregoing, the Funds will attempt to achieve their investment objectives by prudent
selection of municipal securities with a view to holding them for investment. While there can be no assurance thereof, the Funds anticipate that their annual portfolio turnover rates will generally not exceed 100%. However, the rate of turnover will
not be a limiting factor when the Funds deem it desirable to sell or purchase securities. Therefore, depending upon market conditions, the annual portfolio turnover rate of the Funds may exceed 100% in particular years. High portfolio turnover may
result in the realization of net short term capital gains by the Fund which, when distributed to shareholders, will be taxable as ordinary income for federal income tax purposes. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:7%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Repurchase Agreements.</I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As temporary investments, the Funds may invest in repurchase agreements. A
repurchase agreement is a contractual agreement whereby the seller of securities (U.S. government securities or municipal bonds) agrees to repurchase the same security at a specified price on a future date agreed upon by the parties. The agreed upon
repurchase price determines the yield during a Fund&#146;s holding period. Repurchase agreements are considered to be loans collateralized by the underlying security that is the subject of the repurchase contract. Income generated from transactions
in repurchase agreements is taxable for federal income tax purposes and, therefore, is required to be allocated proportionately by the Funds between common shares and preferred shares. The Funds will enter into repurchase agreements with registered
securities dealers or domestic banks that, in the opinion of the Adviser, present minimal credit risk. The risk to the Funds is limited to the ability of the issuer to pay the agreed upon repurchase price on the delivery dates; however, although the
value of the underlying collateral at the time the transaction is entered into always equals or exceeds the agreed upon repurchase price, if the value of the collateral declines there is a risk of loss of both principal and interest. In the event of
default, the collateral may be sold but the Funds might incur a loss if the value of the collateral declines, and might incur disposition costs or experience delays in connection with liquidating the collateral. In addition, if bankruptcy
proceedings are commenced with respect to the seller of the security, realization upon the collateral by the Funds may be delayed or limited. The Adviser will monitor the value of the collateral at the time the transaction is entered into and at all
times subsequent during the term of the repurchase agreement in an effort to determine that such value always equals or exceeds the agreed upon repurchase price. In the event the value of the collateral declines below the repurchase price, the
Adviser will demand additional collateral from the issuer to increase the value of the collateral to at least that of the repurchase price, including interest. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:7%"><FONT
STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Zero Coupon Bonds.</I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Funds may invest in zero coupon bonds. A zero coupon bond is a bond that does not pay interest for its entire life. The market prices of zero coupon
bonds are affected to a greater extent by changes in prevailing levels of interest rates and thereby tend to be more volatile in price than securities that pay interest periodically. In addition, because the Funds accrue income with respect to these
securities prior to the receipt of such interest, it may have to dispose of portfolio securities under disadvantageous circumstances in order to obtain cash needed to pay income dividends in amounts necessary to avoid unfavorable tax consequences.

<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:7%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Board of each Fund oversees the operations and management of the Fund, including the duties performed for the Funds by the Adviser.
The Board has adopted a unitary board structure. A unitary board consists of one group of directors who serve on the board of every fund in the complex. In adopting a unitary board structure, the Board Members seeks to provide effective governance
through establishing a board, the overall composition of which will, as a body, possess the appropriate skills, independence and experience to oversee the Funds&#146; business. With this overall framework in mind, when the Board, through its
Nominating and Governance Committee discussed below, seeks nominees for the Board, the Board Members consider not only the candidate&#146;s particular background, skills and experience, among other things, but also whether such background, skills
and experience enhance the Board&#146;s diversity and at the same time complement the Board given its current composition and the mix of skills and experiences of the incumbent Board Members. The Nominating and Governance Committee believes that the
Board generally benefits from diversity of background, experience and views among its members, and considers this a factor in evaluating the composition of the Board, but has not adopted any specific policy on diversity or any particular definition
of diversity. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:7%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Board believes the unitary board structure enhances good and effective governance, particularly given the
nature of the structure of the investment company complex. Funds in the same complex generally are served by the same service providers and personnel and are governed by the same regulatory scheme which raises common issues that must be addressed by
the Board Members across the fund complex (such as compliance, valuation, liquidity, brokerage, trade allocation or risk management). The Board believes it is more efficient to have a single board review and oversee common policies and procedures
which increases the Board&#146;s knowledge and expertise with respect to the many aspects of fund operations that are complex-wide in nature. The unitary structure also enhances the Board&#146;s influence and oversight over the Adviser and other
service providers. </FONT></P>

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:7%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In an effort to enhance the independence of the Board, the Board also has a Chairman that is
an Independent Board Member. The Board recognizes that a chairman can perform an important role in setting the agenda for the Board, establishing the boardroom culture, establishing a point person on behalf of the Board for Fund management, and
reinforcing the Board&#146;s focus on the long-term interests of shareholders. The Board recognizes that a chairman may be able to better perform these functions without any conflicts of interests arising from a position with Fund management.
Accordingly, the Board Members have elected Robert P. Bremner as the independent Chairman of the Board. Specific responsibilities of the Chairman include: (i)&nbsp;presiding at all meetings of the Board and of the shareholders; (ii)&nbsp;seeing that
all orders and resolutions of the Board Members are carried into effect; and (iii)&nbsp;maintaining records of and, whenever necessary, certifying all proceedings of the Board and the shareholders. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:7%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Although the Board has direct responsibility over various matters (such as advisory contracts, underwriting contracts and Fund
performance), the Board also exercises certain of its oversight responsibilities through several committees that it has established and which report back to the full Board. The Board believes that a committee structure is an effective means to
permit Board Members to focus on particular operations or issues affecting the Funds, including risk oversight. More specifically, with respect to risk oversight, the Board has delegated matters relating to valuation and compliance to certain
committees (as summarized below) as well as certain aspects of investment risk. In addition, the Board believes that the periodic rotation of Board Members among the different committees allows the Board Members to gain additional and different
perspectives on a Fund&#146;s operations. During 2011, the Board had five standing committees: the Executive Committee, the Dividend Committee, the Audit Committee, the Compliance, Risk Management and Regulatory Oversight Committee and the
Nominating and Governance Committee. The Board may also from time to time create ad hoc committees to focus on particular issues as the need arises. The membership and functions of the standing committees are summarized below. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:7%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Executive Committee, which meets between regular meetings of the Board, is authorized to exercise all of the powers of the Board. The
members of the Executive Committee are Robert P. Bremner, Chair, Judith M. Stockdale and John P. Amboian. During the fiscal year ended October&nbsp;31, 2011, the Executive Committee met one time. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:7%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Dividend Committee is authorized to declare distributions on each Fund&#146;s shares including, but not limited to, regular and
special dividends, capital gains and ordinary income distributions. The members of the Dividend Committee are Jack B. Evans, Chair, Judith M. Stockdale and Terence&nbsp;J. Toth. During the fiscal year ended October&nbsp;31, 2011, the Dividend
Committee met four times. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:7%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Board has an Audit Committee, in accordance with Section&nbsp;3(a)(58)(A) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the &#147;1934 Act&#148;), that is composed of Independent Board Members who are also &#147;independent&#148; as that term is defined in the listing standards pertaining to closed-end funds of the New York Stock
Exchange or NYSE Amex, as applicable. The Audit Committee assists the Board in the oversight and monitoring of the accounting and reporting policies, processes and practices of the Funds, and the audits of the financial statements of the Funds; the
quality and integrity of the financial statements of the Funds; the Funds&#146; compliance with legal and regulatory requirements relating to the Funds&#146; financial statements; the independent auditors&#146; qualifications, performance and
independence; and the pricing procedures of the Funds and the internal valuation group of Nuveen. It is the responsibility of the Audit Committee to select, evaluate and replace any independent auditors (subject only to Board and, if applicable,
shareholder ratification) and to determine their compensation. </FONT></P>

The Audit Committee is also responsible for, among other things, overseeing the valuation of securities comprising the Funds&#146; portfolios. Subject to the Board&#146;s general supervision of
such actions, the Audit Committee addresses any valuation issues, oversees the Funds&#146; pricing procedures and actions taken by Nuveen&#146;s internal valuation group which provides regular reports to the committee, reviews any issues relating to
the valuation of the Funds&#146; securities brought to its attention and considers the risks to the Funds in assessing the possible resolutions to these matters. The Audit Committee may also consider any financial risk exposures for the Funds in
conjunction with performing its functions. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:7%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">To fulfill its oversight duties, the Audit Committee receives annual and
semi-annual reports and has regular meetings with the external auditors for the Funds and the internal audit group at Nuveen. The Audit Committee also may review in a general manner the processes the Board or other Board committees have in place
with respect to risk assessment and risk management as well as compliance with legal and regulatory matters relating to the Funds&#146; financial statements. The Audit Committee operates under a written Audit Committee Charter adopted and approved
by the Board, which Charter conforms to the listing standards of the New York Stock Exchange or NYSE Amex, as applicable. Members of the Audit Committee are independent (as set forth in the Charter) and free of any relationship that, in the opinion
of the Board Members, would interfere with their exercise of independent judgment as an Audit Committee member. The members of the Audit Committee are Robert P. Bremner, David&nbsp;J. Kundert, Chair, William&nbsp;J. Schneider, Carole E. Stone and
Terence&nbsp;J. Toth, each of whom is an Independent Trustee of the Funds. During the fiscal year ended October&nbsp;31, 2011, the Audit Committee met four times. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:7%"><FONT

matters affecting the Funds that are not otherwise within the jurisdiction of the other committees. The Board has adopted and periodically reviews policies and procedures designed to address the Funds&#146; compliance and risk matters. As part of
its duties, the Compliance Committee reviews the policies and procedures relating to compliance matters and recommends modifications thereto as necessary or appropriate to the full Board; develops new policies and procedures as new regulatory
matters affecting the Funds arise from time to time; evaluates or considers any comments or reports from examinations from regulatory authorities and responses thereto; and performs any special reviews, investigations or other oversight
responsibilities relating to risk management, compliance and/or regulatory matters as requested by the Board. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:7%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In addition,
the Compliance Committee is responsible for risk oversight, including, but not limited to, the oversight of risks related to investments and operations. Such risks include, among other things, exposures to particular issuers, market sectors, or
types of securities; risks related to product structure elements, such as leverage; and techniques that may be used to address those risks, such as hedging and swaps. In assessing issues brought to the Compliance Committee&#146;s attention or in
reviewing a particular policy, procedure, investment technique or strategy, the Compliance Committee evaluates the risks to the Funds in adopting a particular approach or resolution compared to the anticipated benefits to the Funds and their
shareholders. In fulfilling its obligations, the Compliance Committee meets on a quarterly basis, and at least once a year in person. The Compliance Committee receives written and oral reports from the Funds&#146; Chief Compliance Officer
(&#147;CCO&#148;) and meets privately with the CCO at each of its quarterly meetings. The CCO also provides an annual report to the full Board regarding the operations of the Funds&#146; and other service providers&#146; compliance programs as well
as any recommendations for modifications thereto. The Compliance Committee also receives reports from the investment services group of Nuveen regarding various investment risks. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the full Board also participates in

at its quarterly meetings regarding, among other things, Fund performance and the various drivers of such performance. Accordingly, the Board directly and/or in conjunction with the Compliance Committee oversees matters relating to investment risks.
Matters not addressed at the committee level are addressed directly by the full Board. The Compliance Committee operates under a written charter adopted and approved by the Board. The members of the Compliance Committee are Jack B. Evans, William C.

the establishment of corporate governance guidelines and procedures, to the extent necessary or desirable, and matters related thereto. Although the unitary and committee structure has been developed over the years and the Nominating and Governance
Committee believes the structure has provided efficient and effective governance, the committee recognizes that as demands on the Board evolve over time (such as through an increase in the number of Funds overseen or an increase in the complexity of
the issues raised), the committee must continue to evaluate the Board and committee structures and their processes and modify the foregoing as may be necessary or appropriate to continue to provide effective governance. Accordingly, the Nominating
and Governance Committee has a separate meeting each year to, among other things, review the Board and committee structures, their performance and functions, and recommend any modifications thereto or alternative structures or processes that would
enhance the Board&#146;s governance over the Funds&#146; business. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:7%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In addition, the Nominating and Governance Committee,

in writing with Board Members; and periodically reviews and makes recommendations about any appropriate changes to Board Member compensation. In the event of a vacancy on the Board, the Nominating and Governance Committee receives suggestions from
various sources, including shareholders, as to suitable candidates. Suggestions should be sent in writing to Lorna Ferguson, Manager of Fund Board Relations, Nuveen Investments, 333 West Wacker Drive, Chicago, IL 60606. The Nominating and Governance
Committee sets appropriate standards and requirements for nominations for new Board Members, and each nominee is evaluated under the same standards. However, the Nominating and Governance Committee reserves the right to interview any and all
candidates and to make the final selection of any new Board Members. In considering a candidate&#146;s qualifications, each candidate must meet certain basic requirements, including relevant skills and experience, time availability (including the
time requirements for due diligence site visits to internal and external sub-advisers and service providers) and, if qualifying as an Independent Board Member candidate, independence from the Adviser, sub-advisers, underwriters or other service
providers, including any affiliates of these entities. These skill and experience requirements may vary depending on the current composition of the Board, since the goal is to ensure an appropriate range of skills, diversity and experience, in the
aggregate. Accordingly, the particular factors considered and weight given to these factors will depend on the composition of the Board and the skills and backgrounds of the incumbent Board Member at the time of consideration of the nominees. All
candidates, however, must meet high expectations of personal integrity, independence, governance </FONT></P>

effective business judgment in the performance of their duties, and the Board believes each Board Member satisfies this standard. An effective Board Member may achieve this ability through his or her educational background; business, professional

STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The management of multiple accounts may result in a portfolio manager devoting unequal time and attention to the management of each account. Nuveen Asset Management seeks to manage such competing
interests for the time and attention of portfolio managers by having portfolio managers focus on a particular investment discipline. Most accounts managed by a portfolio manager in a particular investment strategy are managed using the same
investment models. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:7%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">If a portfolio manager identifies a limited investment opportunity which may be suitable for more than one

allocating limited opportunities across multiple accounts. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:7%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">With respect to many of its clients&#146; accounts, Nuveen Asset
Management determines which broker to use to execute transaction orders, consistent with its duty to seek best execution of the transaction. However, with respect to certain other accounts, Nuveen Asset Management may be limited by the client with
respect to the selection of brokers or may be instructed to direct trades through a particular broker. In these cases, Nuveen Asset Management may place separate, non-simultaneous, transactions for a Fund and other accounts which may temporarily
affect the market price of the security or the execution of the transaction, or both, to the detriment of the Fund or the other accounts. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:7%"><FONT

transactions or to engage in these transactions to the same extent as the other accounts managed by the portfolio manager. Finally, the appearance of a conflict of interest may arise where Nuveen Asset Management has an incentive, such as a
performance-based management fee, which relates to the management of some accounts, with respect to which a portfolio manager has day-to-day management responsibilities. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:7%"><FONT

securities generally will be to acquire control of the issuer and to seek to prevent the credit deterioration or facilitate the liquidation or other workout of the distressed issuer&#146;s credit problem. In the course of exercising control of a
distressed issuer, Nuveen Asset Management may pursue the Funds&#146; interests in a variety of ways, which may entail negotiating and executing consents, agreements and other arrangements, and otherwise influencing the management of the issuer.
Nuveen Asset Management does not consider such activities proxy voting for purposes of Rule 206(4)-6 under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended (the &#147;Advisers Act&#148;), but nevertheless provides reports to the Fund&#146;s Board on

case of securities traded in the OTC market, but the prices paid by the Funds usually include an undisclosed dealer commission or mark-up. Transactions in the OTC market can also be placed with broker-dealers who act as agents and charge brokerage
commissions for effecting OTC transactions. Each Fund may place its OTC transactions either directly with principal market makers, or with broker-dealers if that is consistent with Nuveen Asset Management&#146;s obligation to obtain best qualitative
execution. In certain instances, the Funds may make purchases of underwritten issues at prices that include underwriting fees. </FONT></P>

Asset Management&#146;s practice to select dealers that, in addition, furnish research information (primarily credit analyses of issuers and general economic reports) and statistical and other services to Nuveen Asset Management. It is not possible
to place a dollar value on information and statistical and other services received from dealers. Since it is only supplementary to Nuveen Asset Management&#146;s own research efforts, the receipt of research information is not expected to reduce

other clients that may invest in the same types of securities as the Funds and that may have investment objectives similar to those of the Funds. Nuveen Asset Management seeks to allocate portfolio transactions equitably whenever concurrent
decisions are made to purchase or sell assets or securities by each Fund and another advisory account. If an aggregated order cannot be filled completely, allocations will generally be made on a pro rata basis. An order may not be allocated on a pro
rata basis where, for example (i)&nbsp;consideration is given to portfolio managers who have been instrumental in developing or negotiating a particular investment; (ii)&nbsp;consideration is given to an account with specialized investment policies
that coincide with the particulars of a specific investment; (iii)&nbsp;pro rata allocation would result in odd-lot or de minimis amounts being allocated to a portfolio or other client; or (iv)&nbsp;where Nuveen Asset Management reasonably
determines that departure from a pro rata allocation is advisable. There may also be instances where a Fund will not participate at all in a transaction that is allocated among other accounts. While these allocation procedures could have a
detrimental effect on the price or amount of the securities available to the Fund from time to time, it is the opinion of the Board that the benefits available from Nuveen Asset Management&#146;s management outweigh any disadvantage that may arise

relative demand for and supply of such shares in the market, general market and economic conditions and other factors. Because shares of a closed-end investment company may frequently trade at prices lower than net asset value, the Acquiring

taxable year, which generally will be prior to the receipt of the corresponding cash payments. However, the Acquiring Fund must distribute to shareholders, at least annually, all or substantially all of its investment company taxable income
(determined without regard to the deduction for dividends paid) and net tax-exempt interest, including such accrued income, to avoid federal income and excise taxes. Therefore, the Acquiring Fund may have to dispose of its portfolio securities under

dividend income&#148; received by noncorporate shareholders is taxed for federal income tax purpose at rates equivalent to long-term capital gain tax rates, which reach a maximum of 15%. Qualified dividend income generally includes dividends from
domestic corporations and dividends from non-U.S. corporations that meet certain specified criteria. For taxable years beginning on or after January&nbsp;1, 2013, qualified dividend income will no longer be taxed at the rates applicable to long-term
capital gains, and the maximum individual federal income tax rate on long-term capital gains will increase to 20%, unless Congress enacts legislation providing otherwise. As long as the Acquiring Fund qualifies as a regulated investment company

common shares and the preferred shares in proportion to the total dividends paid to each such class during or with respect to the taxable year, or otherwise as required by applicable law. Net capital gain dividends and ordinary income dividends will

months, any loss on the sale or disposition will be treated as a long-term capital loss to the extent of any net capital gain dividends received by the shareholder with respect to such shares. Any loss realized on a sale or exchange of shares of the
Acquiring Fund will be disallowed to the extent those shares of the Acquiring Fund are replaced by other substantially identical shares of the Acquiring Fund or other substantially identical stock or securities (including through reinvestment of
dividends) within a period of 61 days beginning 30 days before and ending 30 days after the date of disposition of the original shares. In that event, the basis of the replacement stock or securities will be adjusted to reflect the disallowed loss.

Interest on certain &#147;private activity&#148; bonds is included as an item of tax preference in determining the amount of a taxpayer&#146;s alternative minimum taxable income. To the extent that the Acquiring Fund received income from municipal
securities subject to the federal alternative minimum tax, a portion of the dividends paid by the Acquiring Fund, although otherwise exempt from U.S. federal income tax, would be taxable to its shareholders to the extent that their tax liability is
determined under the federal alternative minimum tax. The Acquiring Fund will annually provide a report indicating the percentage of the Acquiring Fund&#146;s income attributable to municipal securities subject to the federal alternative minimum
tax. In addition, for certain corporations, federal alternative minimum taxable income is increased by 75% of the difference between an alternative measure of income (&#147;adjusted current earnings&#148;) and the amount otherwise determined to be
the alternative minimum taxable income. Interest on all municipal securities, and therefore a distribution by the Acquiring Fund that would otherwise be tax-exempt, is included in calculating a corporation&#146;s adjusted current earnings. Certain
small corporations are not subject to the federal alternative minimum tax. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:7%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">For taxable years beginning after

issue discount and market discount, as well as net gain from the disposition of other property. This tax will generally apply to the extent net investment income, when added to other modified adjusted gross income, exceeds $200,000 for an unmarried
individual, $250,000 for a married taxpayer filing a joint return (or a surviving spouse), or $125,000 for a married individual filing a separate return. Shareholders should consult their tax advisers regarding the applicability of this tax in

all of the liabilities of the Acquired Funds by the Acquiring Fund in exchange for shares of the Acquiring Fund and the distribution of such shares to Acquired Funds&#146; shareholders in complete liquidation of the Acquired Funds. The pro forma

respectively, to their shareholders prior to the Reorganizations. The table below shows the common shares that Acquired Funds shareholders would have received if the Reorganizations were to have taken place on the period ended date in Note 1.

<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:7%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">1. Likelihood of payment capacity and willingness of the obligor to meet its financial commitment on an obligation in accordance with the

terms of default risk. As such, they pertain to senior obligations of an entity. Junior obligations are typically rated lower than senior obligations, to reflect the lower priority in bankruptcy, as noted above. (Such differentiation applies when an
entity has both senior and subordinated obligations, secured and unsecured obligations, or operating company and holding company obligations.) Accordingly, in the case of junior debt, the rating may not conform exactly with the category definition.
