sovereign debt and banking crises, has resulted, and may continue to result, in an unusually high degree of volatility in the financial markets, both domestic and foreign. Liquidity in some markets has decreased; credit has become scarcer worldwide;
and the values of some sovereign debt and of securities of issuers that hold that sovereign debt have fallen. These market conditions may continue or deteriorate further and may add significantly to the risk of short-term volatility in the Fund. In
addition, global economies and financial markets are becoming increasingly interconnected, which increases the possibilities that conditions in one country or region might adversely impact issuers in a different country or region. Because the
situation is widespread and largely unprecedented, it may be unusually difficult to identify both risks and opportunities using past models of the interplay of market forces, or to predict the duration of these market conditions.

<TD ALIGN="left" VALIGN="top"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Interest Rate Risk.</I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Generally, when market interest rates rise, bond prices fall, and vice versa. Interest rate risk is the risk that the
municipal securities in the Fund&#146;s portfolio will decline in value because of increases in market interest rates. As interest rates decline, issuers of municipal securities may prepay principal earlier than scheduled, forcing the Fund to
reinvest in lower-yielding securities and potentially reducing the Fund&#146;s income. As interest rates increase, slower than expected principal payments may extend the average life of securities, potentially locking in a below-market interest rate
and reducing the Fund&#146;s value. Currently, market interest rates are at or near historically low levels. In typical market interest rate environments, the prices of longer-term municipal securities generally fluctuate more than prices of
shorter-term municipal securities as interest rates change. Because the Fund will invest primarily in long-term municipal securities, the Common Stock net asset value and market price per share will fluctuate more in response to changes in market
interest rates than if the Fund invested primarily in shorter-term municipal securities. Because the values of lower-rated and comparable unrated debt securities are affected both by credit risk and interest rate risk, the price movements of such
lower grade securities in response to changes in interest rates typically have not been highly correlated to the fluctuations of the prices of investment grade quality securities in response to changes in market interest rates. The Fund&#146;s
investments in interest rate floating securities, as described herein, will tend to increase Common Stock interest rate risk. See &#147;Risk Factors&#151;Interest Rate Risk.&#148; </FONT></TD></TR></TABLE>

Investments&#151;Municipal Securities&#151;Inverse Floating Rate Securities.&#148; In general, income on inverse floating rate securities will decrease when interest rates increase and increase when interest rates decrease. Investments in inverse
floating rate securities may subject the Fund to the risks of reduced or eliminated interest payments and losses of principal. In addition, inverse floating rate securities may increase or decrease in value at a greater rate than the underlying
interest rate, which effectively leverages the Fund&#146;s investment. As a result, the market value of such securities generally will be more volatile than that of fixed rate securities. </FONT></TD></TR></TABLE>

The Fund&#146;s ability to maintain a level Common Stock dividend rate will depend on a number of factors. As portfolio and market conditions change, the rate of dividends on the Common Stock and the Fund&#146;s dividend policy could change. For
each year, the Fund will distribute all or substantially all of its net investment income. In addition, the Fund intends to distribute, at least annually, all or substantially all of its net capital gain (which is the excess of net long-term capital
gain over net short-term capital loss) and taxable ordinary income, if any, to Common Stockholders. While not currently anticipated, if the Fund makes total distributions during a given calendar year in an amount that exceeds the Fund&#146;s net
investment income and net capital gain for that calendar year, the excess would generally be treated by Common Stockholders as a return of capital for tax purposes. A return of capital reduces a shareholder&#146;s tax basis, which could result in
higher taxes when the shareholder sells his or her shares. This may cause the shareholder to pay taxes even if he or she sells shares for less than the original price. You may elect to reinvest automatically some or all of your distributions in

Nuveen Asset Management believes are underrated and undervalued, based upon its <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">bottom-up,</FONT> research-driven investment strategy. Underrated municipal securities are those whose ratings do not, in Nuveen Asset
Management&#146;s opinion, reflect their true creditworthiness. Undervalued municipal securities are securities that, in Nuveen Asset Management&#146;s opinion, are worth more than the value assigned to them in the marketplace. Nuveen Asset
Management believes its value oriented strategy offers the opportunity to construct a well diversified portfolio of municipal securities that has the potential to outperform major municipal market benchmarks over the longer term. A municipal
security&#146;s market value generally will depend upon its form, maturity, call features, and interest rate, as well as the issuer&#146;s credit quality or credit rating, all such factors examined in the context of the municipal securities market
and interest rate levels and trends. Nuveen Asset Management may at times believe that securities associated with a particular municipal market sector (for example, electric utilities), or issued by a particular municipal issuer, are undervalued.
Nuveen Asset Management may purchase such a security for the Fund&#146;s portfolio because it represents a market sector or issuer that Nuveen Asset Management considers undervalued, even if the value of the particular security appears to be
consistent with the value of similar securities. Municipal securities of particular types (<I>e.g.</I>, hospital bonds, industrial revenue bonds or securities issued by a particular municipal issuer) may be undervalued because there is a temporary
excess of supply in that market sector, or because of a general decline in the market price of municipal securities of the market sector for reasons that do not apply to the particular municipal securities that are considered undervalued. The
Fund&#146;s investment in underrated or undervalued municipal securities will be based on Nuveen Asset Management&#146;s belief that their yield is higher than that available on securities bearing equivalent levels of interest rate risk, credit risk
and other forms of risk, and that their prices will ultimately rise (relative to the market) to reflect their true value. The Fund attempts to increase its portfolio value relative to the municipal bond market by prudent selection of municipal
securities regardless of the direction the market may move. Any capital appreciation realized by the Fund will generally result in the distribution of taxable capital gains to Common Stockholders. </FONT></P>

in addition to the amount of time until the security finally matures. As the value of a security changes over time, so will its duration. Prices of securities with longer durations tend to be more sensitive to interest rate changes than securities
with shorter durations. In general, a portfolio of securities with a longer duration can be expected to be more sensitive to interest rate changes than a portfolio with a shorter duration. For example, the price of a bond with an effective duration
of two years will rise (fall) two percent for every one percent decrease (increase) in its yield, and the price of a five-year duration bond will rise (fall) five percent for a one percent decrease (increase) in its yield. As of July 31, 2013, the

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 tax. Municipal securities are often issued by state and local governmental entities to finance or refinance public projects such as roads, schools, and water supply systems. Municipal securities may also be issued on behalf of
private entities or 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 of the later issuance of
long-term debt. The Fund may purchase municipal securities in the form of bonds, notes, leases or certificates of participation; structured as callable or <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-callable;</FONT> 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 <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">tax-exempt</FONT> interest rates and represent a leveraged investment in an
underlying municipal security, which could have the economic effect of financial leverage. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT

Participation.</I>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Fund 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 which is issued by a state or local government to acquire equipment and facilities. Income
from such obligations is generally 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 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 <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-appropriation</FONT> or foreclosure
might prove difficult, time consuming and costly, and result in a delay in recovering, or the failure to recover fully, the Fund&#146;s original investment. To the extent that the 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 Fund will only purchase municipal securities representing lease obligations where Nuveen Asset
Management believes the issuer has a strong incentive to continue making appropriations until maturity. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P>

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 <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">long-</FONT> 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.

The assets in the escrow fund are derived from the proceeds of refunding bonds issued by the same issuer as the <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">pre-refunded</FONT> 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 <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">pre-refunded</FONT> municipal securities. However, except for a change in the revenue source from which

inverse floating rate securities. Inverse floating rate securities (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,

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, <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">tax-exempt</FONT> 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, the 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, the Fund as the holder of the inverse floater assumes the interest rate
cash flow risk and the market value risk associated with the municipal security 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 total face value of the short-term floaters in relation to the value of the residual inverse floaters that are issued by the special purpose trust. The Fund expects to make limited investments in
inverse floaters, with leverage ratios that may vary at inception between one and three times. 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 the Fund, as the holder of the residual inverse floating rate securities. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT

of the inverse floater only, and not the value of the short-term floater issued by the trust, inverse floaters&#146; value is generally more volatile than that of fixed rate bonds. The market price of inverse floating rate securities is generally
more volatile than the underlying securities due to the leveraging effect of this ownership structure. These securities generally will underperform the market of fixed rate bonds in a rising interest rate environment (<I>i.e., </I>when bond values
are falling), but tend to out-perform 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. Inverse floaters have varying degrees of liquidity based upon, among other things, the liquidity of the underlying securities deposited in a special purpose trust.

coupon bond is a bond that typically does not pay interest either for the entire life of the obligation or for an initial period after the issuance of the obligation. When held to its maturity, the holder receives the par value of the zero coupon
bond, which generates a return equal to the difference between the purchase price and its maturity value. A zero coupon bond is normally issued and traded at a deep discount from face value. This original issue discount (&#147;OID&#148;)
approximates the total amount of interest the security will accrue and compound prior to its maturity and reflects the payment deferral and credit risk associated with the instrument. Because zero coupon securities and other OID instruments do not
pay cash interest at regular intervals, the instruments&#146; ongoing accruals require ongoing judgments concerning the collectability of deferred payments and the value of any associated collateral. As a result, these securities may be subject to
greater value fluctuations and less liquidity in the event of adverse market conditions than comparably rated securities that pay cash on a current basis. Because zero coupon bonds, and OID instruments generally, allow an issuer to avoid or delay
the need to generate cash to meet current interest payments, they may involve greater payment deferral and credit risk than coupon loans and bonds that pay interest currently or in cash. The Fund generally will be required to distribute dividends to
shareholders representing the income of these instruments as it accrues, even though the Fund will not receive all of the income on a current basis or in cash. Thus, the Fund may have to sell other investments, including when it may not be advisable
to do so, and use the cash proceeds to make income distributions to its shareholders. For accounting purposes, these cash distributions to shareholders will not be treated as a return of capital. </FONT></P>

also for hedging purposes. Structured notes are privately negotiated debt obligations where the principal and/or interest is determined by reference to the performance of a benchmark asset, market or interest rate (an &#147;embedded index&#148;),
such as selected securities, an index of securities or specified interest rates, or the differential performance of two assets or markets. The terms of such structured instruments normally provide that their principal and/or interest payments are to
be adjusted upwards or downwards (but not ordinarily below zero) to reflect changes in the embedded index while the structured instruments are outstanding. As a result, the interest and/or principal payments that may be made on a structured product
may vary widely, depending upon a variety of factors, including the volatility of the embedded index and the effect of changes in the embedded index on principal and/or interest payments. The rate of return on structured notes may be determined by
applying a multiplier to the performance or differential performance of the referenced index or indices or other assets. Application of a multiplier involves leverage that will serve to magnify the potential for gain and the risk of loss. These

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. The Fund may also 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 the 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, the 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, the Fund would
keep the stream of payments and would have no payment obligations. As the seller, the Fund would be subject to investment exposure on the notional amount of the swap. If the 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, the 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 the Fund. Interest rate swaps involve the exchange by the 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. The 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. See &#147;Hedging Strategies and Other Uses of Derivatives&#148; and &#147;Segregation of Assets&#148; in the SAI. </FONT></P>

(after taking into account unrealized profits and unrealized losses on any such positions and excluding the amount by which options that are &#147;in-the-money&#148; at the time of purchase are &#147;in-the-money&#148;) may not exceed 5% of the

over the past several years, including the European sovereign debt and banking crises, has resulted, and may continue to result, in an unusually high degree of volatility in the financial markets, both domestic and foreign. Liquidity in some markets
has decreased; credit has become scarcer worldwide; and the values of some sovereign debt and of securities of issuers that hold that sovereign debt have fallen. These market conditions may continue or deteriorate further and may add significantly
to the risk of short-term volatility in the Fund. In addition, global economies and financial markets are becoming increasingly interconnected, which increases the possibilities that conditions in one country or region might adversely impact issuers
in a different country or region. Because the situation is widespread and largely unprecedented, it may be unusually difficult to identify both risks and opportunities using past models of the interplay of market forces, or to predict the duration
of these market conditions. In response to the crisis, the U.S. and other governments and the Federal Reserve and certain foreign central banks have taken steps to support the financial markets. Where economic conditions are recovering, they are
nevertheless perceived as still fragile. Withdrawal of government support, failure of efforts in response to the crisis, or investor perception that such efforts are not succeeding could adversely impact the value and liquidity of certain
securities. The severity or duration of these conditions may also be affected by policy changes made by governments or quasigovernmental organizations. Changes in market conditions will not have the same impact on all types of securities.

securities are commonly referred to as distressed securities). Municipal securities of below investment grade quality, commonly referred to as junk bonds, are regarded as having predominately speculative characteristics with respect to capacity to
pay interest and repay principal when due, and are susceptible to default or decline in market value due to adverse economic and business developments. Also, to the extent that the rating assigned to a municipal security in the Fund&#146;s portfolio
is downgraded by any NRSRO, the market price and liquidity of such security may be adversely affected. The market values for municipal securities of below investment grade quality tend to be volatile, and these securities are less liquid than
investment grade municipal securities. For these reasons, an investment in the Fund, compared with a portfolio consisting solely of investment grade securities, may experience the following: </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:-6px"><FONT

payments and interest payments compared to an investment grade issuer. The principal amount of below investment grade securities outstanding has proliferated in the past decade as an increasing number of issuers have used below investment grade
securities for financing. The current downturn may severely affect the ability of highly leveraged issuers to service their debt obligations or to repay their obligations upon maturity. As the national economy experiences the current economic
downturn, resulting in decreased tax and other revenue streams of municipal issuers, or in the event interest rates rise sharply, increasing the interest cost on variable rate instruments and negatively impacting economic activity, the number of
defaults by below investment grade municipal issuers is likely to increase. Similarly, downturns in profitability in specific industries could adversely affect private activity bonds. The market values of lower quality debt securities tend to
reflect individual developments of the issuer to a greater extent than do higher quality securities, which react primarily to fluctuations in the general level of interest rates. Factors having an adverse impact on the market value of lower quality
securities may have an adverse impact on the Fund&#146;s net asset value and the market value of its Common Stock. In addition, the Fund may incur additional expenses to the extent it is required to seek recovery upon a default in payment of
principal or interest on its portfolio holdings. In certain circumstances, the Fund may be required to foreclose on an issuer&#146;s assets and take possession of its property or operations. In such circumstances, the Fund would incur additional
costs in disposing of such assets and potential liabilities from operating any business acquired. </FONT></P>

the market for investment grade municipal securities. The prices quoted by different dealers for below investment grade municipal securities may vary significantly, and the spread between the bid and ask price is generally much larger for below
investment grade municipal securities than for higher quality instruments. Under adverse market or economic conditions, the secondary market for below investment grade securities could contract further, independent of any specific adverse changes in
the condition of a particular issuer, and these instruments may become illiquid. As a result, the Fund could find it more difficult to sell these securities or may be able to sell the securities only at prices lower than if such securities were
widely traded. Prices realized upon the sale of such lower rated or unrated securities, under these circumstances, may be less than the prices used in calculating the Fund&#146;s net asset value. </FONT></P>

an economic downturn or a sustained period of rising interest rates, highly leveraged issuers of below investment grade securities may experience financial stress. During such periods, such issuers may not have sufficient revenues to meet their
interest payment obligations. The issuer&#146;s ability to service its debt obligations also may be adversely affected by specific developments, the issuer&#146;s inability to meet specific projected forecasts or the unavailability of additional
financing. The risk of loss from default by the issuer is significantly greater for the holders of below investment grade securities because such securities are generally unsecured and are often subordinated to other creditors of the issuer. Prices
and yields of below investment grade securities will fluctuate over time and, during periods of economic uncertainty, volatility of below investment grade securities may adversely affect the Fund&#146;s net asset value. In addition, investments in

characteristics of these companies can cause their securities to be particularly risky, although they also may offer the potential for high returns. These companies&#146; securities may be considered speculative, and the ability of the companies to
pay their debts on schedule could be affected by adverse interest rate movements, changes in the general economic climate, economic factors affecting a particular industry or specific developments within the companies. Distressed securities
frequently do not produce income while they are outstanding and may require the Fund to bear certain extraordinary expenses in order to protect and recover its investment. </FONT></P>

asset value and market price per share will fluctuate more in response to changes in market interest rates than if the Fund invested primarily in shorter-term municipal securities. Because the values of lower-rated and comparable unrated debt

firms were unwilling to commit their capital to purchase and to serve as a dealer for municipal bonds. The amount of public information available about the municipal securities in the Fund&#146;s portfolio is generally less than that for corporate
equities or bonds, and the investment performance of the Fund may therefore be more dependent on the analytical abilities of Nuveen Asset Management than if the Fund were a stock fund or taxable bond fund. The secondary market for municipal
securities, particularly the below investment grade bonds in which the Fund may invest, also tends to be less well-developed or liquid than many other securities markets, which may adversely affect the Fund&#146;s ability to sell its municipal

experience delays in collecting principal and interest and the 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

participation involve special risks not normally associated with general obligations or revenue bonds. Leases and installment purchase or conditional sale contracts (which normally provide for title to the leased asset to pass eventually to the
governmental issuer) have evolved as a means for governmental issuers to acquire property and equipment without 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 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
<FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-appropriation</FONT> or foreclosure might prove difficult, time consuming and costly, and may result in a delay in recovering or the failure to fully recover the Fund&#146;s original investment. In the event of <FONT

purposes, financial leverage includes the funds&#146; use of preferred stock and borrowings and certain investments in the residual interest certificates (also called inverse floating rate securities) in tender option bond (TOB) trusts, including
the portion of assets held by a TOB trust that has been effectively financed by the trust&#146;s issuance of floating rate securities, subject to an agreement by NFALLC as to certain funds to limit the amount of such assets for determining managed
assets in certain circumstances. The complex-level fee is calculated based upon the aggregate daily managed assets of all Nuveen funds that constitute &#147;eligible assets.&#148; Eligible assets consist of managed assets of all Nuveen Funds,
including assets attributable to leverage, but do not include (i)&nbsp;assets attributable to investments in other Nuveen funds (to avoid the double counting of such assets) or (ii)&nbsp;assets in excess of a determined amount (originally $2

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 Fund&#146;s Board of Directors or its delegate. </FONT></P>

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 Fund&#146;s Board of Directors. 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 Directors of the 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 of Directors&#146; designee.
Exchange-listed securities are generally valued at the last sales price on the securities exchange on which such securities are primarily traded. Securities traded on a securities exchange for which there are no transactions on a given day or
securities not listed on a securities exchange are valued at the mean of the closing bid and asked prices. Securities traded on Nasdaq are valued at the Nasdaq Official Closing Price. Temporary investments in securities that have variable rate and
demand features qualifying them as short-term investments are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. See &#147;Net Asset Value&#148; in the SAI for more information. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT

Although it does not now intend to do so, the Board of Directors may change the Fund&#146;s dividend policy and the amount or timing of the distributions, based on a number of factors, including

<P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Fund might not distribute all or a portion of any net capital gain for a taxable year. If the Fund does not distribute all of its net
capital gain for a taxable year, it will pay federal income tax on the retained gain. Each Common Stockholder of record as of the end of the Fund&#146;s taxable year will include in income for federal income tax purposes, as long-term capital gain,
his or her share of the retained net capital gain, will be deemed to have paid his or her proportionate share of tax paid by the Fund on such retained gain, and will be entitled to an income tax credit or refund for that share of the tax. The Fund
will treat the retained capital gains as a substitute for equivalent cash distributions. While not currently anticipated, if the Fund were to make total distributions during a given calendar year in an amount that exceeds the Fund&#146;s net
investment income and net capital gain for that calendar year, the excess would generally be treated by Common Stockholders as a return of capital for tax purposes. A return of capital reduces a shareholder&#146;s tax basis, which could result in
higher taxes when the shareholder sells his or her shares. This may cause the shareholder to pay taxes even if he or she sells shares for less than the original price. </FONT></P>

treated as a regulated investment company (&#147;RIC&#148;) under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the &#147;Code&#148;). In order to qualify for treatment as a RIC, the Fund must satisfy certain requirements regarding
the sources of its income, the diversification of its assets and the distribution of its income. As a RIC, the Fund is not expected to be subject to federal income tax. The Fund primarily invests in municipal securities (as defined above) issued by
states, cities and local authorities and certain possessions and territories of the United States (such as Puerto Rico or Guam) or municipal securities whose income is otherwise exempt from regular federal income taxes. Substantially all of the
Fund&#146;s dividends paid to you are expected to qualify as &#147;exempt-interest dividends.&#148; A shareholder treats an exempt-interest dividend as interest on state and local bonds exempt from regular federal income tax. Federal income tax law
imposes an alternative minimum tax with respect to corporations, individuals, trust and estates. Interest on certain municipal securities, 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. If the Fund receives income from such municipal securities, a portion of the dividends paid by the Fund, although exempt from regular federal income tax, will be taxable to shareholders whose tax
liabilities are determined under the federal alternative minimum tax. The Fund will annually provide a report indicating the percentage of the Fund&#146;s income attributable to municipal securities and the percentage includable in federal
alternative minimum taxable income. Corporations are subject to special rules in calculating their federal alternative minimum taxable income with respect to interest from municipal securities. </FONT></P>

additional shares. Capital gain distributions 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 taxable to noncorporate shareholders at rates of
up to 20%. The 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 income,&#148; which is

</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objectives by investing in a portfolio of municipal securities (defined below), a
significant portion of which Nuveen Asset Management, LLC (&#147;Nuveen Asset Management&#148;), the Fund&#146;s investment sub-adviser, believes are underrated and undervalued, based upon its <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">bottom-up,</FONT>
research-driven investment strategy. Underrated municipal securities are those whose ratings do not, in Nuveen Asset Management&#146;s opinion, reflect their true creditworthiness. Undervalued municipal securities are securities that, in Nuveen
Asset Management&#146;s opinion, are worth more than the value assigned to them in the marketplace. Nuveen Asset Management believes its value oriented strategy offers the opportunity to construct a well diversified portfolio of municipal securities
that has the potential to outperform major municipal market benchmarks over the longer term. A municipal security&#146;s market value generally will depend upon its form, maturity, call features, and interest rate, as well as the issuer&#146;s
credit quality or credit rating, all such factors examined in the context of the municipal securities market and interest rate levels and trends. Nuveen Asset Management may at times believe that securities associated with a particular municipal
market sector (for example, electric utilities), or issued by a particular municipal issuer, are undervalued. Nuveen Asset Management may purchase such a security for the Fund&#146;s portfolio because it represents a market sector or issuer that
Nuveen Asset Management considers undervalued, even if the value of the particular security appears to be consistent with the value of similar securities. Municipal securities of particular types (<I>e.g.</I>, hospital bonds, industrial revenue
bonds or securities issued by a particular municipal issuer) may be undervalued because there is a temporary excess of supply in that market sector, or because of a general decline in the market price of municipal securities of the market sector for
reasons that do not apply to the particular municipal securities that are considered undervalued. The Fund&#146;s investment in underrated or undervalued municipal securities will be based on Nuveen Asset Management&#146;s belief that their yield is
higher than that available on securities bearing equivalent levels of interest rate risk, credit risk and other forms of risk, and that their prices will ultimately rise (relative to the market) to reflect their true value. The Fund attempts to
increase its portfolio value relative to the municipal bond market by prudent selection of municipal securities regardless of the direction the market may move. Any capital appreciation realized by the Fund will generally result in the distribution
of taxable capital gains to Common Stockholders. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The 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 securities that provide for the payment of interest income that is exempt from
regular federal income tax (as used in this document, the term &#147;municipal securities&#148; refers to all such investments collectively). Municipal securities are often issued by state and local governmental entities to finance or refinance
public projects, such as roads, schools, and water supply systems. </FONT></P>

Municipal securities also may be issued on behalf of private entities or 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 long-term 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 also may be issued to
finance projects on a short-term interim basis, anticipating repayment with the proceeds of the later issuance of long-term debt. The Fund may purchase municipal securities in the form of bonds, notes, leases or certificates of participation;
structured as callable or <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-callable;</FONT> with payment forms that include fixed coupon, variable rate, zero coupon, capital appreciation bonds, tender-option bonds, and residual interest bonds or inverse

municipal securities or as a substitute for a position in the underlying asset. These types of strategies may generate taxable income. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT

below investment grade quality (Ba/BB or below) are commonly referred to as junk bonds. Issuers of securities rated Ba/BB or B are regarded as having current capacity to make principal and interest payments but are subject to business, financial or
economic conditions which could adversely affect such payment capacity. Municipal securities rated Baa or BBB or above are considered &#147;investment grade&#148; securities; municipal securities rated Baa are considered medium grade obligations
that lack outstanding investment characteristics and have speculative characteristics, while municipal securities rated BBB are regarded as having adequate capacity to pay principal and interest. Municipal securities rated Aaa or AAA in which the
Fund may invest may have been so rated on the basis of the existence of insurance guaranteeing the timely payment, when due, of all principal and interest. Municipal securities rated below investment grade quality are obligations of issuers that are
considered predominately speculative with respect to the issuer&#146;s capacity to pay interest and repay principal according to the terms of the obligation and, therefore, carry greater investment risk, including the possibility of issuer default
and bankruptcy and increased market price volatility. Municipal securities rated below investment grade tend to be less marketable than higher-quality securities because the market for them is less broad. The market for municipal securities unrated
by any NRSRO is even narrower. During periods of thin trading in these markets, the spread between bid and asked prices is likely to increase significantly and the Fund may have greater difficulty selling its portfolio securities. The Fund will be
more dependent on Nuveen Asset Management&#146;s research and analysis when investing in these securities. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Fund may
invest up to 10% of its net assets in distressed securities. Distressed securities are securities issued by companies having financial difficulties, such as being in default on their obligations to pay principal or interest thereon when due or that
are involved in bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings. The issuers of such securities may be in transition, out of favor, financially leveraged or troubled, or potentially troubled, and may be or have recently been involved in major strategic
actions, restructurings, bankruptcy, reorganization or liquidation. These characteristics of these issuers can cause their securities to be particularly risky, although they also may offer the potential for high returns. These issuers&#146;
securities may be considered speculative, and the ability of the issuers to pay their debts on schedule could be affected by adverse interest rate movements, changes in the general economic climate, economic factors affecting a particular industry
or specific developments within the issuers. Distressed securities frequently do not produce income while they are outstanding and may require the Fund to bear certain extraordinary expenses in order to protect and recover its investment.

described in the Prospectus are &#147;tobacco settlement bonds.&#148; The Fund may invest up to 10% of its net assets in tobacco settlement bonds, which are municipal securities that are backed solely by expected revenues to be derived from lawsuits
involving tobacco related deaths and illnesses which were settled between certain states and American tobacco companies. Tobacco settlement bonds are secured by an issuing state&#146;s proportionate share in the Master Settlement Agreement
(&#147;MSA&#148;). The MSA is an agreement, reached out of court in November 1998 between 46 states and nearly all of the U.S. tobacco manufacturers. The MSA provides for annual payments in perpetuity by the manufacturers to the states in exchange
for releasing all claims against the manufacturers and a pledge of no further litigation. Tobacco manufacturers pay into a master escrow trust based on their market share, and each state receives a fixed percentage of the payment as set forth in the
MSA. A number of states have securitized the future flow of those payments by selling bonds pursuant to indentures or through distinct governmental entities created for such purpose. The principal and interest payments on the bonds are backed by the
future revenue flow related to the MSA. Annual payments on the bonds, and thus risk to the Fund, are highly dependent on the receipt of future settlement payments to the state or its governmental entity. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The actual amount of future settlement payments is further dependent on many factors, including, but not limited to, annual domestic
cigarette shipments, reduced cigarette consumption, increased taxes on cigarettes, inflation, financial capability of tobacco companies, continuing litigation and the possibility of tobacco manufacturer bankruptcy. The initial and annual payments
made by the tobacco companies will be adjusted based on a number of factors, the most important of which is domestic cigarette consumption. If the volume of cigarettes shipped in the U.S. by manufacturers participating in the settlement decreases
significantly, payments due from them will also decrease. Demand for cigarettes in the U.S. could continue to decline due to price increases needed to recoup the cost of payments by tobacco companies. Demand could also be affected by: anti-smoking
campaigns, tax increases, reduced advertising, enforcement of laws prohibiting sales to minors; elimination of certain sales venues such as vending machines; and the spread of local ordinances restricting smoking in public places. As a result,
payments made by tobacco manufacturers could be negatively impacted if the decrease in tobacco consumption is significantly greater than the forecasted decline. A market share loss by the MSA companies to
<FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-MSA</FONT> participating tobacco manufacturers would cause a downward adjustment in the payment amounts. A participating manufacturer filing for bankruptcy also could cause delays or reductions in bond payments.
The MSA itself has been subject to legal challenges and has, to date, withstood those challenges. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Fund intends to invest

USES OF DERIVATIVES </B></FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Fund may periodically engage in hedging transactions, and otherwise use various types of

<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT 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:4%"><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 Lehman Municipal Bond
Index). Some forms of derivatives may trade on exchanges, while <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-standardized</FONT> derivatives, which tend to be more specialized and complex, trade in <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap"><FONT
STYLE="white-space:nowrap">&#147;over-the-counter&#148;</FONT></FONT> or a <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap"><FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">one-on-one</FONT></FONT> 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 <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">tax-exempt</FONT> 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:4%"><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 Fund may be greater than gains
in the value of the securities in the Fund&#146;s portfolio. In addition, futures and options markets may not be liquid in all circumstances. As a result, in volatile markets, the Fund 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 Fund&#146;s net asset value which in turn could reduce yield. Net gains, if any, from hedging and other portfolio transactions will be
distributed as taxable distributions to shareholders. The Fund will invest in these instruments only in markets believed by Nuveen Asset Management to be active and sufficiently liquid. Successful implementation of most hedging strategies will
generate taxable income. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Both parties entering into a 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 Fund receiving or paying, as the case may be, only the net amount of the two payments. The
Fund will only sell covered futures contracts, which means that the Fund segregates assets equal to the amount of the obligations. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT

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 <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap"><FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">over-the-counter</FONT></FONT> (&#147;OTC&#148;) transactions. </FONT></P>

currency futures contract gives the holder of the option the right to buy or sell a position in a currency futures contract, at a set price and on or before a specified expiration date. Trading options on international (non-U.S.) currency futures

Commodity Exchange Act (the &#147;CEA&#148;) provided by Commodity Futures Trading Commission (&#147;CFTC&#148;) Regulation 4.5 and is therefore not currently subject to registration or regulation as such under the CEA with respect to the Fund. In
addition, Nuveen Asset Management has claimed the exemption from registration as a commodity trading advisor provided by CFTC Regulation 4.14(a)(8) and is therefore not currently subject to registration or regulation as such under the CEA with
respect to the Fund. In February 2012, the CFTC announced substantial amendments to certain exemptions, and to the conditions for reliance on those exemptions, from registration as a commodity pool operator. Under amendments to the exemption
provided under CFTC Regulation 4.5, if the Fund uses futures, options on futures or swaps other than for bona fide hedging purposes (as defined by the CFTC), the aggregate initial margin and premiums on these positions (after taking into account
unrealized profits and unrealized losses on any such positions and excluding the amount by which options that are &#147;in-the-money&#148; at the time of purchase are &#147;in-the-money&#148;) may not exceed 5% of the Fund&#146;s net asset value, or
alternatively, the aggregate net notional value of those positions may not exceed 100% of the Fund&#146;s net asset value (after taking into account unrealized profits and unrealized losses on any such positions). The CFTC amendments to Regulation
4.5 took effect on December 31, 2012, and the Fund intends to comply with amended Regulation 4.5&#146;s requirements such that NFALLC will not be required to register as a commodity pool operator with the CFTC with respect to the Fund. The Fund
reserves the right to employ futures, options on futures and swaps to the extent allowed by CFTC regulations in effect from time to time and in accordance with the Fund&#146;s policies. The requirements for qualification as a regulated investment

an option on an index future gives the purchaser the right, in return for the premium paid, to assume a position in an index contract rather than an underlying security at a specified exercise price at any time during the period of the option. Upon
exercise of the option, the delivery of the futures position by the writer of the option to the holder of the option will be accompanied by delivery of the accumulated balance of the writer&#146;s futures margin account which represents the amount

securities historically have reacted to an increase or decrease in interest rates in a manner similar to that in which the underlying U.S. Government securities reacted. To the extent, however, that the Fund enters into such futures contracts, the
value of such futures will not vary in direct proportion to the value of the Fund&#146;s holdings of municipal securities. Thus, the anticipated spread between the price of the futures contract and the hedged security may be distorted due to
differences in the nature of the markets. The spread also may be distorted by differences in initial and variation margin requirements, the liquidity of such markets and the participation of speculators in such markets. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Futures exchanges may limit the amount of fluctuation permitted in certain futures contract prices during a single trading day. The daily
limit establishes the maximum amount that the price of a futures contract may vary either up or down from the previous day&#146;s settlement price at the end of the current trading session. Once the daily limit has been reached in a futures contract
subject to the limit, no more trades may be made on that day at a price beyond that limit. The daily limit governs only price movements during a particular trading day and therefore does not limit potential losses because the limit may work to
prevent the liquidation of unfavorable positions. For example, futures prices have occasionally moved to the daily limit for several consecutive trading days with little or no trading, thereby preventing prompt liquidation of positions and
subjecting some holders of futures contracts to substantial losses. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Interest Rate Transactions and Total Return Swaps</I>.
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, as well as total return swaps and other debt related derivative instruments. The Fund may enter into
these transactions in order to seek to hedge the value of the Fund&#146;s portfolio 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:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Interest rate swaps involve the exchange by the 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. In a total return swap, the Fund exchanges with another party their respective commitments to pay
or receive the total return of an underlying asset and a floating local short-term interest rate. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Fund 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

<FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap"><FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">marked-to-market</FONT></FONT> daily. If the interest rate swap transaction is entered into on other than a net basis, the full amount of the Fund&#146;s obligations will be accrued
on a daily basis, and the full amount of the Fund&#146;s obligations will be segregated by the Fund. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The use of swaps and
caps is a highly specialized activity that involves investment techniques and risks different from those associated with ordinary portfolio security transactions, including the risk that the counterparty may be unable to fulfill the transaction. If
there is a default by the other party to such a transaction, the Fund will have contractual remedies pursuant to the agreements related to the transaction. If Nuveen Asset Management is incorrect in its forecasts of market values, interest rates and
other applicable factors, the investment performance of the Fund will be unfavorably affected. Depending on the state of interest rates in general, the Fund&#146;s use of interest rate swaps or caps could enhance or harm the overall performance on
the Common Stock. 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 shares of Common Stock. In addition, if short-term interest
rates are lower than the Fund&#146;s fixed rate of payment on the interest rate swap, the swap will reduce Common Stock 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 Stock net earnings. Buying interest rate caps could enhance the performance of the Common Stock by providing a maximum leverage expense. Buying interest rate caps could also decrease the net earnings of the Common
Stock in the event that the premium paid by the 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:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Swaps and caps do not involve the delivery of securities or other underlying assets or principal. Accordingly, the risk of loss with
respect to swaps is limited to the net amount of payments that the 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 payments.
Depending on whether the Fund would be entitled to receive net payments from the counterparty on the swap or cap, such a default could negatively impact the performance of the Common Stock. In addition, because they are <FONT
STYLE="white-space:nowrap">two-party</FONT> contracts and because they may have terms of greater than seven days, swaps and caps may be considered to be illiquid. It is possible that developments in the swaps and caps markets, including potential
government regulation, could adversely affect the Fund&#146;s ability to terminate existing agreements or to realize amounts to be received under such agreements. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT
STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Although this will not guarantee that the counterparty does not default, the Fund will not enter into a swap or cap transaction with any counter-party that Nuveen Asset Management believes does not have

the Fund&#146;s investments. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In addition, at the time the swap or cap transaction reaches its scheduled termination date,

<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Inverse Floating Rate Securities</I>. Inverse floating rate securities (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, <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">tax-exempt</FONT> 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, the 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, the Fund as the holder of the inverse floater assumes the interest rate cash flow risk and the market value risk associated with the municipal security 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 total face value of the short-term floaters in relation to the value of the
residual inverse floaters that are issued by the special purpose trust. The Fund expects to make limited investments in inverse floaters, with leverage ratios that may vary at inception between one and three times. 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 the Fund, as the holder of the residual inverse floating rate securities. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Because increases in the interest rate on the short-term floaters reduce the residual interest paid on inverse floaters, and because
fluctuations in the value of the municipal bond deposited in the special purpose trust affect the value of the inverse floater only, and not the value of the short-term floater issued by the trust, and because fluctuations in the value of the
municipal bond deposited in the special purpose trust affect the value of the inverse floater only, and not the value of the short-term floater issued by the trust, inverse floaters&#146; value is generally more volatile than that of fixed rate
bonds. The market price of inverse floating rate securities is generally more volatile than the underlying securities due to the leveraging effect of this ownership structure. These securities generally will underperform the market of fixed rate
bonds in a rising interest rate environment </FONT></P>

(<I>i.e., </I>when bond values are falling), but tend to out-perform 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. Inverse floaters have varying degrees of liquidity based upon, among other things, the
liquidity of the underlying securities deposited in a special purpose trust. </FONT></P>  <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Fund may invest in inverse floating rate

The Fund may enter into such recourse agreements (i) 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) 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 the 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 the Fund to a risk of loss that exceeds its investment in the inverse floating rate securities. The 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. Absent a shortfall and forbearance agreement, the Fund would not be required to make such a reimbursement. If the Fund chooses not to enter into such an agreement, the special
purpose trust could be liquidated and the Fund could incur a loss. See also &#147;Segregation of Assets&#148; in this SAI. </FONT></P>

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, the 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. </FONT></P>

liquidity and price of auction rate securities, and are unlikely to resume. Provided that the auction mechanism is successful, auction rate securities usually permit the holder to sell the securities in an auction at par value at specified
intervals. The dividend is reset by &#147;Dutch&#148; auction in which bids are made by broker-dealers and other institutions for a certain amount of securities at a specified minimum yield. The dividend rate set by the auction is the lowest

permit auction rate securities to be traded at par value, there is a risk that an auction will fail due to insufficient demand for the securities. Moreover, between auctions, there may be no
secondary market for these securities, and sales conducted on a secondary market may not be on terms favorable to the seller. Auction rate securities may be called by the issuer. Thus, with respect to liquidity and price stability, auction rate
securities may differ substantially from cash equivalents, notwithstanding the frequency of auctions and the credit quality of the security. The Fund&#146;s investments in auction rate securities of <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">closed-end</FONT>
funds are subject to the limitations prescribed by the 1940 Act. The Fund will indirectly bear its proportionate share of any management and other fees paid by such <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">closed-end</FONT> funds in addition to the advisory
fees payable directly by the Fund. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>WHEN-ISSUED AND DELAYED DELIVERY TRANSACTIONS </B></FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Fund may buy and sell municipal securities on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis, making payment or taking delivery at a later
date, normally within 15 to 45 days of the trade date. On such transactions, the payment obligation and the interest rate are fixed at the time the purchaser enters into the commitment. Beginning on the date the Fund enters into a commitment to
purchase securities on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis, the 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 the Fund and, to the extent distributed,
will be taxable distributions to shareholders. The Fund may enter into contracts to purchase securities on a forward basis (<I>i.e.</I>, where settlement will occur more than 60&nbsp;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> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT

that typically does not pay interest either for the entire life of the obligation or for an initial period after the issuance of the obligation. When held to its maturity, the holder receives the par value of the zero coupon bond, which generates a
return equal to the difference between the purchase price and its maturity value. A zero coupon bond is normally issued and traded at a deep discount from face value. This original issue discount (&#147;OID&#148;) approximates the total amount of
interest the security will accrue and compound prior to its maturity and reflects the payment deferral and credit risk associated with the instrument. Because zero coupon securities and other OID instruments do not pay cash interest at regular
intervals, the instruments&#146; ongoing accruals require ongoing judgments concerning the collectability of deferred payments and the value of any associated collateral. As a result, these securities may be subject to greater value fluctuations and
less liquidity in the event of adverse market conditions than comparably rated securities that pay cash on a current basis. Because zero coupon bonds, and OID instruments generally, allow an issuer to avoid or delay the need to generate cash to meet
current interest payments, they may involve greater payment deferral and credit risk than coupon loans and bonds that pay interest currently or in cash. The Fund generally will be required to distribute dividends to shareholders representing the
income of these instruments as it accrues, even though the Fund will not receive all of the income on a current basis or in cash. Thus, the Fund may have to sell other investments, including when it may not be advisable to do so, and use the cash
proceeds to make income distributions to its shareholders. For accounting purposes, these cash distributions to shareholders will not be treated as a return of capital. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT
STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Further, NFALLC collects management fees on the value of a zero coupon bond or OID instrument attributable to the ongoing non-cash accrual of interest over the life of the bond or other instrument. As a
result, NFALLC receives non-refundable cash payments based on such non-cash accruals while investors incur the risk that such non-cash accruals ultimately may not be realized. </FONT></P>

investment purposes and also for hedging purposes. Structured notes are privately negotiated debt obligations where the principal and/or interest is determined by reference to the performance of a benchmark asset, market or interest rate (an
&#147;embedded index&#148;), such as selected securities, an index of securities or specified interest rates, or the differential performance of two assets or markets. The terms of such structured instruments normally provide that their principal
and/or interest payments are to be adjusted upwards or downwards (but not ordinarily below zero) to reflect changes in the embedded index while the structured instruments are outstanding. As a result, the interest and/or principal payments that may
be made on a structured product may vary widely, depending upon a variety of factors, including the volatility of the embedded index and the effect of changes in the embedded index on principal and/or interest payments. The rate of return on
structured notes may be determined by applying a multiplier to the performance or differential performance of the referenced index or indices or other assets. Application of a multiplier involves leverage that will serve to magnify the potential for
gain and the risk of loss. These types of investments may generate taxable income. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>DEFENSIVE POSITION;

exchange-traded funds (often referred to as &#147;ETFs&#148;)) that invest primarily in municipal securities of the types in which the Fund may invest directly. The Fund intends to invest in taxable short-term investments only in the event that
suitable <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">tax-exempt</FONT> short-term investments are not available at reasonable prices and yields. <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">Tax-exempt</FONT> short-term investments include various obligations issued by
state and local governmental issuers, such as <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">tax-exempt</FONT> notes (bond anticipation notes, tax anticipation notes and revenue anticipation notes or other such municipal securities maturing in three years or less
from the date of issuance) and municipal commercial paper. The Fund will invest only in taxable short-term investments which are U.S. government securities or securities rated within the highest grade by Fitch, Moody&#146;s or S&amp;P, and which
mature within one year from the date of purchase or carry a variable or floating rate of interest. Taxable short-term investments of the Fund may include certificates of deposit issued by U.S. banks with assets of at least $1&nbsp;billion, or
commercial paper or corporate notes, bonds or debentures with a remaining maturity of one year or less, or repurchase agreements. See &#147;Portfolio Composition&#151;Hedging Strategies and Other Uses of Derivatives&#151;Repurchase Agreements.&#148;

STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Portfolio trading may be undertaken to accomplish the Fund&#146;s investment objectives. In addition, a security may be sold and another of comparable quality purchased at approximately the same time to
take advantage of what Nuveen Asset Management 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 securities may cause a temporarily low price for such securities, as compared with other securities of like quality and characteristics. The Fund may also engage to a limited extent in short-term trading consistent
with its 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 Fund will not engage in trading
solely to recognize a gain. </FONT></P>  <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Fund may engage in portfolio trading when considered appropriate, but short-term trading
will not be used as the primary means of achieving the Fund&#146;s investment objectives. Although the Fund cannot accurately predict its annual portfolio turnover rate, it is generally not expected to exceed 25% under normal circumstances. For the
six months ended April 30, 2013, the Fund&#146;s portfolio turnover rate was 6%. However, there are no limits on the Fund&#146;s rate of portfolio turnover, and investments may be sold without regard to length of time held when, in Nuveen Asset
Management&#146;s opinion, investment considerations warrant such action. A higher portfolio turnover rate would result in correspondingly greater brokerage commissions and other transactional expenses that are borne by the Fund. Although these
commissions and expenses are not reflected in the Fund&#146;s &#147;Total Annual Expenses&#148; on page 15 of the Prospectus, they will be reflected in the Fund&#146;s total return. In addition, 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. See &#147;Tax Matters.&#148; </FONT></P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Board of Directors or the Board of Trustees (as the case may be, each is referred to hereafter as the &#147;Board&#148; and the
directors or trustees of the Nuveen Funds, as applicable, are each referred to herein as &#147;Directors&#148;) oversees the operations and management of the Nuveen Funds, including the duties performed for the Nuveen Funds by NFALLC and each Nuveen
Fund&#146;s sub-adviser, as applicable. 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 (all of the independent trustees/directors serve on the
Board of every fund in the Nuveen Fund Complex; the interested directors of the Fund are directors or trustees, as the case may be, of 35 Nuveen Mutual Funds and 103 Nuveen-sponsored closed-end funds). In adopting a unitary board structure, the
Directors seek 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 Nuveen 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 Directors 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 Directors. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><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 directors 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 NFALLC and other service providers.
</FONT></P>  <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><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 Director. 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 Directors have elected
William J. Schneider 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
Directors are carried into effect; and (iii)&nbsp;maintaining records of and, whenever necessary, certifying all proceedings of the Directors and the shareholders. </FONT></P>

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><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 Directors to focus on particular operations or issues affecting the Nuveen 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 Directors among the different committees allows the
Directors to gain additional and different perspectives of the Fund&#146;s operations. The Board has established seven standing committees: the Executive Committee, the Dividend Committee, the Audit Committee, the Compliance, Risk Management and
Regulatory Oversight Committee, the Nominating and Governance Committee, the Open-End Funds Committee and the Closed-End Funds 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:4%"><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. William Adams IV, William J. Schneider, Chair, Judith M. Stockdale and John&nbsp;P.&nbsp;Amboian serve as the current members of the Executive Committee
of the Board. During the fiscal year ended October 31, 2012, the Executive Committee did not meet. </FONT></P>  <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Dividend
Committee is authorized to declare distributions on the 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 J. Toth. During the fiscal year ended October 31, 2012, the Dividend Committee met four times. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I></I>The Compliance, Risk Management and Regulatory Oversight Committee (the &#147;Compliance Committee&#148;) is responsible for the
oversight of compliance issues, risk management and other regulatory matters affecting the Nuveen Funds that are not otherwise the jurisdiction of the other committees. The Board has adopted and periodically reviews policies and procedures designed
to address the Nuveen 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 Nuveen 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:4%"><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 committee&#146;s attention or in reviewing a particular policy, procedure, investment technique or strategy, the Compliance Committee evaluates the risks to the Nuveen Funds in adopting a particular approach or resolution compared to
the anticipated benefits to the Nuveen 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 Nuveen 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 Nuveen 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 discussions with management regarding certain matters relating to investment risk, such as the use of leverage and hedging. The investment services group therefore also reports to
the full Board 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 committee operates under a written charter adopted and
approved by the Board of Directors. The members of the Compliance Committee are Jack B. Evans, William C. Hunter, John K. Nelson, William&nbsp;J.&nbsp;Schneider, Virginia L. Stringer and Judith M. Stockdale, Chair. During the fiscal year ended
October&nbsp;31, 2012, the Compliance Committee met six times. </FONT></P>  <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I></I>The Audit Committee assists the Board in the

Funds; the Nuveen Funds&#146; compliance with legal and regulatory requirements relating to the Nuveen Funds&#146; financial statements; the independent auditors&#146; qualifications, performance and independence; and the pricing procedures of the
Nuveen 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. The Audit Committee is also responsible for, among other things, overseeing the valuation of securities comprising the Nuveen Funds&#146; portfolios. Subject to the Board&#146;s general supervision of such actions, the Audit
Committee addresses any valuation issues, oversees the Nuveen 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 Directors 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 Directors Funds in
conjunction with performing its functions. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><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 Nuveen Funds and the internal audit group at Nuveen Investments. 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 Nuveen Funds&#146; financial statements. The committee operates under a written charter adopted and
approved by the Board. Members of the Audit Committee shall be independent (as set forth in the charter) and free of any relationship that, in the opinion of the Directors, would interfere with their exercise of independent judgment as an Audit
Committee member. The members of the Audit Committee are Robert&nbsp;P.&nbsp;Bremner, David J. Kundert, Chair, William J. Schneider, Carole E. Stone and Terence J. Toth, each of whom is an independent Director of the Nuveen Funds. During the fiscal
year ended October&nbsp;31, 2012, the Audit Committee met four times. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I></I>The Nominating and Governance Committee is
responsible for seeking, identifying and recommending to the Board qualified candidates for election or appointment to the Board. In addition, the Nominating and Governance Committee oversees matters of corporate governance, including the evaluation
of Board performance and processes, the assignment and rotation of committee members, and 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 Nuveen Funds&#146; business. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT

year ended October 31, 2012, (2) the amount of total compensation paid to each Director by the Fund that has been deferred and (3) the total compensation paid to each Director by the Nuveen Funds during the calendar year ended December 31, 2012. The
Fund does not have a retirement or pension plan. The officers and directors affiliated with Nuveen Investments serve without any compensation from the Fund. Certain of the Nuveen Funds have a deferred compensation plan (the &#147;Compensation
Plan&#148;) that permits any director who is not an &#147;interested person&#148; of certain funds to elect to defer receipt of all or a portion of his or her compensation as a director. The deferred compensation of a participating director is
credited to the book reserve account of a fund when the compensation would otherwise have been paid to the director. The value of the director&#146;s deferral account at any time is equal to the value that the account would have had if contributions
to the account had been invested and reinvested in shares of one or more of the eligible Nuveen Funds. At the time for commencing distributions from a director&#146;s deferral account, the director may elect to receive distributions in a lump sum or
over a period of five years. The Fund will not be liable for any other fund&#146;s obligations to make distributions under the Compensation Plan. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="font-size:12px;margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px">&nbsp;</P>

purposes, financial leverage includes the funds&#146; use of preferred stock and borrowings and certain investments in the residual interest certificates (also called inverse floating rate securities) in tender option bond (TOB) trusts, including
the portion of assets held by a TOB trust that has been effectively financed by the trust&#146;s issuance of floating rate securities, subject to an agreement by NFALLC as to certain funds to limit the amount of such assets for determining managed
assets in certain circumstances. The complex-level fee is calculated based upon the aggregate daily managed assets of all Nuveen funds that constitute &#147;eligible assets.&#148; Eligible assets consist of managed assets of all Nuveen Funds,
including assets attributable to leverage, but do not include assets attributable to investments in other Nuveen funds (to avoid the double counting of such assets) or (ii) assets in excess of a determined amount (originally $2 billion) added to the
Nuveen fund complex in connection with NFALLC&#146;s assumption of the management of the former First American Funds effective January 1, 2011. As of May 31, 2013, the complex-level fee rate for the Fund was 0.1661%. </FONT></TD></TR></TABLE>

including the Fund&#146;s, anticipated or actual portfolio transactions, and are designed to assure that the interests of clients, including Fund shareholders, are placed before the interests of personnel in connection with personal investment
transactions. Personnel subject to the Code of Ethics may purchase shares of the Fund subject to the restrictions set forth in the Code of Ethics. While personnel subject to the Code of Ethics may generally invest in securities in which the Fund may

through a special purpose vehicle, equity securities of certain issuers whose securities the Fund already owns when such securities have deteriorated or are expected shortly to deteriorate significantly in credit quality. The purpose of acquiring
equity securities generally will be to acquire control of the municipal bond 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 municipal issuer, Nuveen Asset Management may pursue the Fund&#146;s 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 <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">206(4)-6</FONT> under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended, but nevertheless
provides reports to the Fund&#146;s Board of Directors on its control activities on a quarterly basis. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In the rare event that
a municipal issuer held by the Fund were to issue a proxy, or that the Fund were to receive a proxy issued by a cash management security, Nuveen Asset Management would either engage an independent third party to determine how the proxy should be
voted or vote the proxy with the consent, or based on the instructions, of the Fund&#146;s Board of Directors or its representative. In the case of a conflict of interest, the proxy would be submitted to the Fund&#146;s Board to determine how the
proxy should be voted. A member of Nuveen Asset Management&#146;s legal department would oversee the administration of the voting, and ensure that records were maintained in accordance with Rule <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">206(4)-6,</FONT>
reports were filed with the SEC on Form <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">N-PX,</FONT> and the results provided to the Fund&#146;s Board of Directors and made available to shareholders as required by applicable rules. If applicable, information

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 Fund may make purchases of underwritten issues at
prices that include underwriting fees. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Portfolio securities may be purchased directly from an underwriter or in the OTC

securities by the 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) 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 <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">odd-lot</FONT> 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 the 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 of Directors that the benefits available from Nuveen Asset Management&#146;s management outweigh any disadvantage
that may arise from Nuveen Asset Management&#146;s larger management activities and its need to allocate securities. </FONT></P>

distribution which is made in violation of the Minnesota Business Corporation Act&#146;s limitations on distributions is liable to the corporation to the extent that the distribution exceeded the amount that properly could have been paid.

See the SAI under &#147;Management of the Fund.&#148; This provision in the Articles could delay for up to two years the replacement of a majority of the Board of Directors. Specifically, the Articles require a vote by holders of at least <FONT

could have the effect of depriving the Common Stockholders of opportunities to sell their shares of Common Stock at a premium over the then current market price of the shares of Common Stock by discouraging a third party from seeking to obtain
control of the Fund in a tender offer or similar transaction. The overall effect of these provisions is to render more difficult the accomplishment of a merger or the assumption of control by a third party. They provide, however, the advantage of
potentially requiring persons seeking control of the Fund to negotiate with its management regarding the price to be paid and facilitating the continuity of the Fund&#146;s investment objectives and policies. The Board of Directors of the Fund has

thereof (other than a capital gain dividend) paid by the Fund which are attributable to interest on municipal securities and which are so reported by the Fund. Exempt-interest dividends will be exempt from federal income tax, subject to the possible

from municipal securities). A similar disallowance rule also applies to interest expense paid or incurred by the Fund, if any. Any such disallowed deductions will offset the Fund&#146;s gross exempt-interest income for purposes of calculating the
dividends that the Fund can report as exempt-interest dividends. Interest on indebtedness incurred or continued to purchase or carry the Fund&#146;s shares is not deductible to the extent the interest relates to exempt-interest dividends. Under

which such distributions are made. The amount of taxable income allocable to the Fund&#146;s shares will depend upon the amount of such income realized by the Fund. Distributions, if any, in excess of the Fund&#146;s earnings and profits will first
reduce the adjusted tax basis of a shareholder&#146;s shares and, after that basis has been reduced to zero, will constitute capital gain to the shareholder (assuming the shares are held as capital assets). As long as the Fund qualifies as a RIC

or December, payable to shareholders of record on a specified date in one of those months and paid during the following January, will be treated as having been distributed by the Fund (and received by the shareholders) on December&nbsp;31 of the

income tax law imposes an alternative minimum tax with respect to corporations, individuals, trusts and estates. Interest on certain municipal securities, such as bonds issued to make loans for housing purposes or to private entities (but not to
certain tax-exempt organizations such as universities and non-profit hospitals), is included as an item of tax preference in determining the amount of a taxpayer&#146;s alternative minimum taxable income. If the Fund receives income from municipal
securities the interest on which is a tax preference item, a portion of the dividends paid by the Fund, although otherwise exempt from federal income tax, will be taxable to shareholders whose tax liabilities are determined under the federal
alternative minimum tax. The Fund will annually provide a report indicating the percentage of the Fund&#146;s income attributable to municipal securities and the portion thereof the interest on which is a tax preference item. 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 all distributions by the 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. Bonds issued in 2009 or 2010 generally will not be treated as private activity bonds, and interest earned on such bonds (and Fund distributions consisting of such interest) generally will not be
treated as a tax preference item and generally will not result in or increase a corporate shareholder&#146;s liability for the federal alternative minimum tax. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT

subject to special provisions of the Code that, among other things, may defer the use of certain deductions or losses of the Fund, affect the holding period of securities held by the Fund, and alter the character of the gains or losses realized by
the Fund. These provisions may also require the Fund to recognize income or gain without receiving cash with which to make distributions in the amounts necessary to satisfy the requirements for maintaining RIC status and for avoiding income and

corporations at the same rates applicable to ordinary income. For noncorporate taxpayers, however, long-term capital gains are taxed at rates of up to 20%. Short-term capital gains and other ordinary income are currently taxed to noncorporate
shareholders at ordinary income rates. If a shareholder sells or otherwise disposes of shares of Common Stock before holding them for six months, any loss on the sale or disposition will be treated as a long-term capital loss to the extent of any
amounts treated as distributions to the shareholder of long-term capital gain (including any amount credited to the shareholder as undistributed capital gain). Any loss realized on a sale or exchange of shares of the Fund will be disallowed to the
extent those shares of the Fund are replaced (including, without limitation, under the Plan) by substantially identical shares of the Fund within a period of 61 days beginning 30 days before and ending 30 days after the date of disposition of the
original shares, or to the extent the shareholder enters into a contract or option to repurchase shares within such period. In that event, the basis of the replacement shares of the Fund will be adjusted to reflect the disallowed loss. </FONT></P>

specific financial obligation, a specific class of financial obligations, or a specific financial program (including ratings on medium-term note programs and commercial paper programs). It takes into consideration the creditworthiness of guarantors,
insurers, or other forms of credit enhancement on the obligation and takes into account the currency in which the obligation is denominated. The opinion evaluates the obligor&#146;s capacity and willingness to meet its financial commitments as they
come due, and may assess terms, such as collateral security and subordination, which could affect ultimate payment in the event of default. The issue credit rating is not a recommendation to purchase, sell, or hold a financial obligation, inasmuch

and sell a security for a set price on a future date. They have been designed by boards of trade which have been designated &#147;contracts markets&#148; by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (&#147;CFTC&#148;). </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The purchase of financial futures is for the purpose of hedging the Fund&#146;s existing or anticipated holdings of long-term debt
securities. For example, if the Fund desires to increase its exposure to long-term bonds and has identified long-term bonds it wishes to purchase at a future time, but expects market interest rates to decline (thereby causing the value of those
bonds to increase), it might purchase financial futures. If interest rates did decrease, the value of those <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap"><FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">to-be-purchased</FONT></FONT> long-term bonds would increase, but the value
of the Fund&#146;s financial futures would be expected to increase at approximately the same rate, thereby helping maintain the Fund&#146;s purchasing power. When the Fund purchases a financial future, it deposits in cash or securities an
&#147;initial margin&#148;, typically equal to an amount between 1% and 5% of the contract amount. Thereafter, the Fund&#146;s account is either credited or debited on a daily basis in correlation with the fluctuation in price of the underlying
future or other requirements imposed by the exchange in order to maintain an orderly market. The Fund must make additional payments to cover debits to its account and has the right to withdraw credits in excess of the liquidity, the Fund may close
out its position at any time prior to expiration of the financial future by taking an opposite position. At closing a final determination of debits and credits is made, additional cash is paid by or to the Fund to settle the final determination and
the Fund realizes a loss or gain depending on whether on a net basis it made or received such payments. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The sale of financial
futures is for the purpose of hedging the Fund&#146;s existing or anticipated holdings of long-term debt securities. For example, if the Fund owns long-term bonds and market interest rates were expected to increase (causing those bonds&#146; values
to decline), it might sell financial futures. If interest rates did increase, the value of long-term bonds in the Fund&#146;s portfolio would decline, but the value of the Fund&#146;s financial futures would be expected to increase at approximately
the same rate thereby keeping the net asset value of the Fund from declining as much as it otherwise would have. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Among the
risks associated with the use of financial futures by the Fund as a hedging or anticipatory device, perhaps the most significant is the imperfect correlation between movements in the price of the financial futures and movements in the price of the
debt securities which are the subject of the hedge. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Thus, if the price of the financial future moves less or more than the
price of the securities which are the subject of the hedge, the hedge will not be fully effective. To compensate for this imperfect correlation, the Fund may enter into financial futures in a greater dollar amount than the dollar amount of the
securities being hedged if the historical volatility of the prices of such securities has been greater than the historical volatility of the financial futures. Conversely, the Fund may enter into fewer financial futures if the historical volatility
of the price of the securities being hedged is less than the historical volatility of the financial futures. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The market
prices of financial futures may also be affected by factors other than interest rates. One of these factors is the possibility that rapid changes in the volume of closing transactions, whether due to volatile markets or movements by speculators,
would temporarily distort the normal relationship between the markets in the financial future and the chosen debt securities. In these circumstances as well as in periods of rapid and large price movements. The Fund might find it difficult or
impossible to close out a particular transaction. </FONT></P>

STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Fund may also purchase put or call options on financial futures which are traded on a U.S. Exchange or board of trade and enter into closing transactions with respect to such options to terminate an
existing position. The purchase of put options on financial futures is analogous to the purchase of put options by the Fund on its portfolio securities to hedge against the risk of rising interest rates. As with options on debt securities, the
holder of an option may terminate his position by selling an option of the Fund. There is no guarantee that such closing transactions can be effected. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT

by the writer of the option to the holder of the option will be accompanied by delivery of the accumulated balance of the writer&#146;s futures margin account which represents the amount by which the market price of the index futures contract, at

<P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Swap agreements are <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">two-party</FONT> contracts entered into primarily by institutional investors,
typically for periods ranging from a few weeks to several years. In a standard swap transaction, two parties agree to exchange the returns (or differentials in rates of return) earned or realized on particular predetermined investments or
instruments. The gross returns to be exchanged or swapped between the parties are calculated with respect to a notional amount (the amount or value of the underlying asset used in computing the particular interest rate, return, or other amount to be
exchanged) of a particular security, or in a basket of securities representing a particular index. Swap agreements may include, by way of example, (i)&nbsp;interest rate swaps, in which one party exchanges a commitment to pay a floating,
shorter-term interest rate (typically by reference to the rate of a specific security or index) for the other party&#146;s commitment to pay a fixed, longer-term interest rate (either as specifically agreed, or by reference to a specified security

specified return or the return of another instrument (typically a floating short-term interest rate), and (vi)&nbsp;credit default swap, in which the buyer pays a periodic fee in return for a
contingent payment by the seller upon a credit event (such as a default) happening with respect to a specified instrument, typically in an amount equivalent to the loss incurred on a specific investment in that security due to the credit event.
</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">A Fund may enter into such swap agreements for any purpose consistent with the Fund&#146;s investment objective, such as for
the purpose of attempting to obtain, enhance, or preserve a particular desired return or spread at a lower cost to the Fund than if the Fund had invested directly in an instrument that yielded that desired return or spread. The Fund also may enter
into swaps in order to protect against an increase in the price of securities that the Fund anticipates purchasing at a later date. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT
STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Whether the Fund&#146;s use of swap agreements will be successful in furthering its investment objective will depend, in part, on the ability to predict correctly whether certain types of investments are
likely to produce greater returns than other investments and the changes in the future values, indices, or rates covered by the swap agreement. Swap agreements may be considered to be illiquid. Moreover, the Fund bears the risk of loss of the amount
expected to be received under a swap agreement in the event of the default or bankruptcy of a swap agreement counterparty. The Fund will enter swap agreements only with counterparties that the Adviser reasonably believes are capable of performing
under the swap agreements. If there is a default by the other party to such a transaction, the Fund will have to rely on its contractual remedies (which may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws) pursuant to the agreements related to
the transaction. Certain restrictions imposed on the Fund by the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, may limit the Fund&#146;s ability to use swap agreements. The swap market is largely unregulated. </FONT></P>

Corporation shall indemnify its currently acting and its former directors, officers, employees and agents, and those persons who, at the request of the Corporation serve or have served another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other
enterprise in one or more such capacities. The indemnification provided for herein shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification may otherwise be entitled. </FONT></P>

with the preparation of a settlement) may be paid by the Corporation in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding, if authorized by the Board of Directors in the specific case, upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf
of the director, officer, employee or agent to repay that amount of the advance which exceeds the amount which it is ultimately determined that he is entitled to receive from the Corporation by reason of indemnification as authorized herein;
provided, however, that prior to making any such advance at least one of the following conditions shall have been met: (1) the indemnitee shall provide a security for his undertaking, (2) the Corporation shall be insured against losses arising by
reason of any lawful advances, or (3) a majority of a quorum of the disinterested, non-party directors of the Corporation, or an independent legal counsel in a written opinion, shall determine, based on a review of readily available facts, that

against any liability to the Corporation or to its security holders unless a determination shall have been made in the manner provided hereafter that such liability has not arisen from such officer&#146;s or director&#146;s disabling conduct. A
determination that an officer or director is entitled to indemnification shall have been properly made if it is based upon (1) a final decision on the merits by a court or other body before whom the proceeding was brought that the indemnitee was not
liable by reason of disabling conduct or, (2) in the absence of such a decision, a reasonable determination, based upon a review of the facts, that the indemnitee was not liable by reason of disabling conduct, by (a) the vote of a majority of a
quorum of directors who are neither &#147;interested persons&#148; of the Corporation as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940 nor parties to the proceeding, or (b) an independent legal counsel in a written opinion. </FONT></P>

(<I>i.e.</I>, where the insured did not act in good faith for a purpose he or she reasonably believed to be in the best interest of the Registrant or where he or she had reasonable cause to believe this conduct was unlawful). The policy has a

Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the 1933 Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses
incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as
expressed in the 1933 Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>Item&nbsp;31: Business and Other Connections of

current payments of such compensation, and to treat any deferred amount as though an equivalent dollar amount had been invested in shares of one or more Eligible Funds. Each Board intends that the Plan shall be maintained at all times on an unfunded
basis for federal income tax purposes under the Code. The Plan is not covered by the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT
