Chairman’s
Letter to Shareholders
Dear Shareholders,
Despite the global economy’s ability to muddle through the many economic headwinds of recent years, investors continue to have good reason to remain cautious. The European Central Bank’s commitment to “do what it takes” to support sovereign debt markets has stabilized the broader euro area financial markets. The larger member states of the European Union (EU) are working diligently to strengthen the framework for a tighter financial and banking union and meaningful progress has been made by agreeing to centralize large bank regulation under the European Central Bank. However, economic conditions in the southern tier members are not improving and the pressures on their political leadership remain intense. The jury is out on whether the respective populations will support the continuing austerity measures that are required to meet the EU fiscal targets.
In the U.S., the Fed’s commitment to low interest rates through Quantitative Easing is the subject of increasing debate in its policy making deliberations and many independent economists are expressing concern about the economic distortions resulting from negative real interest rates. There are encouraging signs in Congress that both political parties are working toward compromises on previously irreconcilable social issues. It is too early to tell whether those efforts will produce meaningful results or pave the way for cooperation on the major fiscal issues that potentially loom ahead. Over the longer term, there are some positive trends for the U.S. economy: house prices are clearly recovering, banks and corporations continue to strengthen their financial positions and incentives for capital investment in the U.S. by domestic and foreign corporations are increasing due to more competitive energy and labor costs.
During the last eighteen months, U.S. investors have benefited from strong returns in the domestic equity markets and steady total returns in many fixed income markets. However, many macroeconomic risks remain unresolved, including negotiating through the many U.S. fiscal issues, managing the risks of another year of abnormally low U.S. interest rates, achieving a better balance between fiscal discipline and encouraging economic growth in the euro area and reducing the potential economic impact of geopolitical issues, particularly in the Middle East and East Asia. In the face of these uncertainties, the experienced investment professionals at Nuveen Investments seek out investments in companies that are enjoying positive economic conditions. At the same time they are always on the alert for risks in markets subject to excessive optimism. Monitoring this process is a critical function for the Fund Board as it oversees your Nuveen Fund on your behalf.
As always, I encourage you to communicate with your financial consultant if you have any questions about your investment in a Nuveen Fund. On behalf of the other members of your Fund Board, we look forward to continuing to earn your trust in the months and years ahead.
Sincerely,
Robert P. Bremner

FUND REORGANIZATIONS
Effective before the opening of business on January 7, 2013 (subsequent to the close of this reporting period), certain Michigan Funds (the Acquired Funds) were reorganized into one, larger-state Michigan Fund included in this report (the Acquiring Fund) as follows:
| Acquired Funds | Symbol | Acquiring Fund | Symbol | |||
| • | Nuveen Michigan Premium | NMP | Nuveen Michigan Quality | NUM | ||
| Income Municipal Fund, Inc. | Income Municipal Fund | |||||
| • | Nuveen Michigan Dividend | NZW | ||||
| Advantage Municipal Fund |
Effective before the opening of business on April 8, 2013, certain Ohio Funds (the Acquired Funds) were reorganized into one, larger-state Ohio Fund (the Acquiring Fund) as follows:
| Acquired Funds | Symbol | Acquiring Fund | Symbol | |||
| • | Nuveen Ohio Dividend | NXI | Nuveen Ohio Quality | NUO | ||
| Advantage Municipal Fund | Income Municipal Fund | |||||
| • | Nuveen Ohio Dividend | NBJ | ||||
| Advantage Municipal Fund 2 | ||||||
| • | Nuveen Ohio Dividend | NVJ | ||||
| Advantage Municipal Fund 3 |
Upon the closing of the reorganizations, the Acquired Funds transferred their assets to the Acquiring Funds in exchange for common and preferred shares of the Acquiring Funds and the assumption by the Acquiring Funds of the liabilities of the Acquired

Funds. The Acquired Funds were then liquidated, dissolved and terminated in accordance with their Declaration of Trust. Shareholders of the Acquired Funds became shareholders of the Acquiring Funds. Holders of common shares of the Acquired Funds received newly issued common shares of the Acquiring Funds, the aggregate net asset value of which was equal to the aggregate net asset value of the common shares of the Acquired Funds held immediately prior to the reorganizations (including for this purpose fractional Acquiring Funds shares to which shareholders would be entitled). Fractional shares were sold on the open market and shareholders received cash in lieu of such fractional shares. Holders of preferred shares of the Acquired Funds received on a one-for-one basis newly issued preferred shares of the Acquiring Funds, in exchange for their preferred shares of the Acquired Funds held immediately prior to the reorganizations.
In conjunction with the reorganizations a change-of-domicile reorganization was approved to convert NUM and NUO from Minnesota corporations to Massachusetts business trusts. As a result, on January 7, 2013 and April 8, 2013 the Funds’ names were changed to Nuveen Michigan Quality Income Fund and Nuveen Ohio Quality Income Municipal Fund, respectively. The Funds’ tickers remained unchanged.
What factors affected the U.S. economic and municipal market environments during the twelve-month reporting period ended February 28, 2013?
During this reporting period, the U.S. economy’s progress toward recovery from recession continued at a moderate pace. The Federal Reserve (Fed) maintained its efforts to improve the overall economic environment by holding the benchmark fed funds rate at the record low level of zero to 0.25% that it established in December 2008. At its March 2013 meeting (following the end of this reporting period), the central bank stated it expected that its “highly accommodative stance of monetary policy” would keep the fed funds rate in “this exceptionally low range” as long as the unemployment rate remained above 6.5% and the outlook for inflation was no higher than 2.5%. The Fed also decided to continue purchasing $40 billion of mortgage-backed securities and $45 billion of longer-term Treasury securities each month in an open-ended effort to bolster growth. Taken together, the goals of these actions are to put downward pressure on longer-term interest rates, make broader financial conditions more accommodative and support a stronger economic recovery as well as continued progress toward the Fed’s mandates of maximum employment and price stability.
In the fourth quarter of 2012, the U.S. economy, as measured by the U.S. gross domestic product (GDP), grew at an annualized rate of 0.4%, bringing GDP growth for the calendar year 2012 to 2.2%, compared with 1.8% in 2011. The Consumer Price Index (CPI) rose 2.0% year-over-year as of February 2013, while the core CPI (which excludes food and energy) increased 2.0% during the period, staying within the Fed’s unofficial objective of 2.0% or lower for this inflation measure. Labor market conditions continued to show signs of improvement. As of February 2013, the national unemployment rate was 7.7%, the lowest level since December 2008, down from 8.3% in February 2012. The housing market, long a major weak spot in the economic recovery, also delivered some good
| 6 | Nuveen Investments |
news, as the average home price in the S&P/Case-Shiller Index of 20 major metropolitan areas rose 8.1% for the twelve months ended January 2013 (most recent data available at the time this report was prepared). This marked the largest twelve-month percentage gain for the index since the pre-recession summer of 2006, although housing prices continued to be off approximately 30% from their mid-2006 peak.
During this period, the outlook for the U.S. economy continued to be clouded by uncertainty about global financial markets and the outcome of the “fiscal cliff.” The tax consequences of the fiscal cliff situation which were scheduled to become effective in January 2013 were averted through a last-minute deal that raised payroll taxes but left in place a number of tax breaks, including the tax exemption on municipal bond interest. However, lawmakers postponed and then failed to reach a resolution on $1.2 trillion in spending cuts, the “sequestration”, intended to address the federal budget deficit. As a result, automatic spending cuts affecting both defense and non-defense programs (excluding Social Security and Medicaid) took effect March 1, 2013, with potential implications for economic growth over the next decade.
Municipal bond prices generally rallied during this period, as strong demand and tight supply combined to create favorable market conditions for municipal bonds. Although the total volume of tax-exempt supply improved over that of the same period a year earlier, the issuance pattern remained light compared with long-term historical trends and new money issuance was relatively flat. This supply/demand dynamic served as a key driver of performance. Concurrent with rising prices, yields continued to decline across most maturities, especially at the longer end of the municipal yield curve and the long end of the curve continued to flatten. In addition to the lingering effects of the Build America Bonds (BAB) program, which expired at the end of 2010 but impacted issuance well into 2012, the low level of municipal issuance reflected the current political distaste for additional borrowing by state and local governments facing fiscal constraints and the prevalent atmosphere of municipal budget austerity. During this reporting period, we continued to see borrowers come to market seeking to take advantage of the low rate environment through refunding activity, with approximately two-thirds of municipal paper issued by borrowers that were calling existing debt and refinancing at lower rates.
Over the twelve months ended February 28, 2013, municipal bond issuance nationwide totaled $379.6 billion, an increase of 16% over the issuance for the twelve-month period ended February 29, 2012. As previously discussed, the majority of this supply was attributable to refunding issues, rather than new money issuance. During this period, demand for municipal bonds remained consistently strong, especially from individual investors, but also from mutual funds, banks and crossover buyers such as hedge funds.
How were the economic and market environments in Michigan and Ohio during this period?
After struggling to emerge from recession over the past few years, Michigan’s economy continued to improve slowly. To a large extent, the state economy remained tied to
| Nuveen Investments | 7 |
events in the auto industry, as the “Big Three” General Motors, Ford and Chrysler continued to rank among Michigan’s five largest employers. Strong growth in domestic auto sales in 2012 bolstered Michigan’s recovery, with vehicle sales continuing the positive trend of the past three years. Overall, Michigan continued to rely heavily on manufacturing, which represented 13% of employment in the state, compared with 9% nationally. For calendar year 2012, overall employment in Michigan grew 1.2%, the second year of expansion following a decade of decline. As of February 2013, Michigan’s jobless rate was 8.8%, its best reading since August 2008, down from 9.1% in February 2012 and the record high of 14.2% in August 2009. Over the past seven years, housing prices have declined dramatically in most of central and eastern Michigan and the inventory of foreclosed homes remained elevated in many of the state’s hardest-hit metropolitan areas, including Detroit, Warren and Flint. According to the S&P/Case-Shiller Index of 20 major metropolitan areas, housing prices in Detroit rose 13.8% over the twelve months ended January 2013 (most recent data available at the time this report was prepared). Despite this double-digit annual gain, Detroit was the only market among the 20 to show deceleration in housing prices for this period. For fiscal 2013, Michigan’s $48.2 billion budget was structurally balanced and did not require major expenditure cuts or borrowing. Modest operating surpluses over the past two years have been used to replenish the state’s depleted rainy day fund, and Michigan projected its budget stabilization fund balance will reach $580 million by the close of fiscal 2015. During the past two fiscal years, the state’s improved financial and cash position eliminated the need for cash flow borrowing. For fiscal 2014, the proposed state budget included significant funding for improvements to Michigan’s deteriorating transportation infrastructure, which should help to support construction spending and payrolls. As of February 2013, Moody’s and S&P rated Michigan general obligation (GO) debt at Aa2 and AA-, respectively, with stable outlooks. During the twelve months ended February 28, 2013, municipal issuance in Michigan totaled $10.2 billion, a decrease of less than 1% compared with the twelve months ended February 29, 2012.
After weathering difficult years during the recession, the Ohio economy has shown signs of growth, although it continued to lag some aspects of the national recovery. Ohio’s education and health services industry remained the largest source of employment in the state, and this sector along with manufacturing and professional and business services continued to be leaders in adding jobs during this period. In manufacturing, Ohio’s auto industry recently made capital investments to support future production, which in turn should benefit the state’s steel industry. Steel manufacturing also has been supported by the emerging energy industry in eastern Ohio, including the extraction of natural gas and oil from the Utica and Marcellus shale formations. As of February 2013, the state’s unemployment rate was 7.0%, down from 7.5% in February 2012 and well below the February 2013 national rate of 7.7%. The state’s housing market, while stabilizing, has yet to make the transition to recovery. Approximately 22 of every 1,000 households were in foreclosure in Cleveland compared with 17 of every 1,000 nationally. According to the S&P/Case-Shiller Index of 20 major metropolitan areas, housing prices in Cleveland
| 8 | Nuveen Investments |
gained 4.8% during the twelve months ended January 2013 (most recent data available at the time this report was prepared), compared with an average increase of 8.1% nationally. On the fiscal front, Ohio has seen revenue recovery in line with its economic recovery. Boosted by gains in income and sales taxes, state tax revenues were up 7.3% in 2012. At the end of fiscal 2012, Ohio transferred surplus revenues to its budget stabilization fund, which had been depleted during the recession. The proposed biennial state budget for fiscal 2014-2015 included several changes to Ohio’s tax code: a tax cut for small businesses, a reduction in personal income tax rates and a lower sales tax on services, with some of the resultant revenue losses offset by increased taxes on oil and gas drilling. As of February 2013, Moody’s and S&P rated Ohio GO debt at Aa1 and AA+, respectively, with stable outlooks. For the twelve months ended February 28, 2013, municipal issuance in Ohio totaled $12.5 billion, an increase of almost 50% compared with the twelve months ended February 29, 2012.
How did the Funds perform during the twelve-month reporting period ended February, 28, 2013? What strategies were used to manage the Funds during the reporting period and how did these strategies influence performance?
The tables in each Fund’s Performance Overview and Holding Summaries section of this report provide total returns for the Funds for the one-year, five-year and ten-year periods ended February 28, 2013. Each Fund’s total returns are compared with the performance of a corresponding market index and Lipper classification average.
For the twelve months ended February 28, 2013, the total return on common share net asset value (NAV) for NUM exceeded the return for the S&P Michigan Municipal Bond Index, and NUO and NVJ outperformed the S&P Ohio Municipal Bond Index, while NXI performed in line with the S&P Ohio Index and NBJ lagged this Index. All of the Funds in this report outperformed the S&P Municipal Bond Index. For the same period, NUM trailed the average return for the Lipper Michigan Municipal Debt Funds Classification Average, while all of the Ohio Funds exceeded the average return for the Lipper Other States Municipal Debt Funds Classification Average.
Key management factors that influenced the Funds’ returns during this period included duration and yield curve positioning, credit exposure and sector allocation. In addition, the use of leverage was an important positive factor affecting the Funds’ performance. Leverage is discussed in more detail later in this report.
In an environment of declining rates and a flattening yield curve, municipal bonds with longer maturities generally outperformed those with shorter maturities during this period. Overall, credits at the longest end of the municipal yield curve posted the strongest returns during this period, while bonds at the shortest end produced some of the weakest results. Duration and yield curve positioning was a net positive contributor to the performance of these Funds, as they benefited from being overweighted in the outperforming longest part of the yield curve and underweighted in the shorter segments of the curve that underperformed.
| Nuveen Investments | 9 |
Credit exposure was another important factor in the Funds’ performance during these twelve months, as lower quality bonds generally outperformed higher quality bonds. This outperformance was due in part to the greater demand for lower rated bonds as investors looked for investment vehicles offering higher yields. As investors became more comfortable taking on additional investment risk, credit spreads or the difference in yield spreads between U.S. Treasury securities and comparable investments such as municipal bonds, narrowed through a variety of rating categories. As a result of this spread compression, the Funds generally benefited from their holdings of lower rated credits. However, all of these Funds were underweighted in bonds rated single–B, which hampered their performance for the period. In the Ohio Funds, the underweight in this credit quality sector was tied to the Funds’ underexposure to the tobacco sector (see next paragraph).
During this period, revenue bonds as a whole outperformed the general municipal market. Holdings that generally made positive contributions to the Funds’ returns included industrial development revenue (IDR) credits, health care (together with hospitals), transportation and housing bonds. Tobacco credits backed by the 1998 master tobacco settlement agreement were the top performing market sector in 2012, helped by their longer effective durations and the increased demand for higher yielding investments by investors who had become less risk-averse. In addition, based on recent data showing that cigarette sales had fallen less steeply than anticipated, the 46 states participating in the agreement, including Michigan and Ohio, stand to receive increased payments from the tobacco companies. During this period, as tobacco bonds rallied, NUM benefited from its overweighting in tobacco credits relative to the Michigan Index. In Ohio, however, tobacco bonds, many of which are rated single–B, make up a larger portion of the state index, and all of the Ohio Funds were significantly underweight in this area, which negatively impacted their performance.
In contrast, pre-refunded bonds, which are often backed by U.S. Treasury securities, were among the poorest performing market segments during this period. The under-performance of these bonds can be attributed primarily to their shorter effective maturities and higher credit quality. We continued to hold these pre-refunded bonds in our portfolios due to the higher yields they provided. Also lagging the performance of the general municipal market for this period were GO bonds and electric utilities credits. All of the Ohio Funds tended to be underweighted in state GOs, which lessened the impact of the underperformance of these bonds. On the other hand, NUM benefited from a strong performance from its overweighting of local GOs, most of which were issued by local school districts. In Michigan, these bonds are generally insured and also backed by the state of Michigan as well as their underlying credit quality.
In light of recent events in the municipal marketplace, shareholders should be aware of two issues involving some of the Funds’ holdings: the declaration of a state of financial emergency in Detroit, Michigan and the downgrade of Puerto Rico bonds. In Detroit,
| 10 | Nuveen Investments |
decades of population loss, changes in the auto manufacturing industry and significant tax base deterioration have resulted in financial challenges that the city has been unable to adequately address. Detroit’s population, which peaked at 1.9 million in 1950, is now 700,000, and its liabilities were estimated at almost $15 billion. While a chapter 9 bankruptcy filing is a possibility, state officials seem to agree that such an action would negatively impact all local governments and school districts in the state and that avoiding this outcome is in the best interests of all parties. Furthermore, the state government must give explicit permission before a local government in Michigan can file for bankruptcy and no local government in the state has ever filed for chapter 9. Following the end of this reporting period, an emergency financial manager for Detroit was appointed and approved, a situation that we believe sends a message that the state is standing behind its municipal issuers and makes it more likely that the state will provide Detroit with various forms of assistance. The emergency financial manager has 45 days from his appointment (on March 14, 2013) to file a financial and operating plan that must include full payment of scheduled debt service on all bonds, notes and municipal securities. Shareholders of NUM should note that this Fund has no exposure to Detroit GO bonds.
In December 2012, Moody’s downgraded Puerto Rico GO bonds to Baa3 from Baa1. Earlier in the year (July 2012), bonds issued by the Puerto Rico Sales Tax Financing Corporation (COFINA) also were downgraded by Moody’s to Aa3 from Aa2. The downgrade of the Puerto Rico GOs was based on Puerto Rico’s ongoing economic problems, unfunded pension liabilities, elevated debt levels, and structural budget gaps. The downgrade of the COFINA bonds was due mainly to the performance of Puerto Rico’s economy and its impact on the projected growth of sales tax revenues, and not to any sector or structural issues. In addition, the COFINA bonds were able to maintain a higher rating than the GOs because, unlike the revenue streams supporting some Puerto Rican issues, the sales taxes supporting the COFINA bonds cannot be diverted and used to support the commonwealth’s GO bonds. Shareholders of the Michigan and Ohio Funds should note that each of these Funds has limited exposure to Puerto Rico bonds, with holdings ranging from approximately 1% in NVJ to 4% in NXI. The Funds’ holdings are predominately the dedicated sales tax bonds issued by COFINA. These bonds were purchased in the past to help keep the Funds fully invested when in-state paper was scarce and were aimed to provide higher yields, added diversification, and triple exemption (i.e., exemption from federal, state and local taxes). The Ohio Funds also hold Puerto Rico tobacco bonds. No additional Puerto Rico bonds were purchased in these Funds during this period. For the reporting period ended February 28, 2013, Puerto Rico paper generally underperformed the market as whole, although Puerto Rico tobacco bonds performed very well. The impact on performance differed from Fund to Fund in line with the type and amount of its holdings. As we continue to emphasize Puerto Rico’s stronger credits, we view these as long-term holdings and note that, in the case of the COFINA bonds, the commonwealth’s recent enforcement of sales tax collections has improved significantly.

As previously discussed, municipal bond prices generally rallied nationally during this period, driven by strong demand and tight supply of new issuance. At the same time, yields continued to be relatively low. In this environment, we continued to take a bottom-up approach to discovering sectors that appeared undervalued as well as individual credits that had the potential to perform well over the long term and helped us keep our Funds fully invested.
During this period, NUM found value in diversified areas of the market, including health care, state housing and tobacco. We also purchased Wayne County limited tax obligation bonds and Wayne County airport credits, and we added marginally to our positions in Detroit water and Detroit sewer bonds. In the Ohio Funds, we added to our holdings of GO bonds, water and sewer, higher education, health care and utilities credits. In addition, NVJ bought Ohio State Highway Capital Improvement Bonds. We also participated in the new issue of tax-exempt bonds from JobsOhio, the state’s private, nonprofit economic development agency. The proceeds from these bonds, which are rated A2 by Moody’s and AA- by S&P, were used to lease Ohio’s wholesale liquor franchise for a term of 25 years, while the state’s Division of Liquor Control continues to operate and manage the liquor business. Profits from the franchise, which are expected to total approximately $100 million annually, will be used to fund JobsOhio’s job creation efforts.
In general, our focus in the Michigan and Ohio Funds was on purchasing bonds with intermediate and longer maturities in order to keep the Funds’ durations within their targeted objectives and provide protection for their duration and yield curve positioning. The purchase of longer bonds also enabled us to take advantage of more attractive yields at the longer end of the municipal yield curve.
Cash for new purchases during this period was generated primarily by the proceeds from the increased number of bond calls resulting from the growth in refinancings. The elevated number of bond calls provided a meaningful source of liquidity, which drove much of our activity during this period as we worked to redeploy these proceeds, as well as those from maturing bonds to keep the Funds fully invested and support their income streams. In addition, NUM sold selected pre-refunded bonds to help finance its purchase of tobacco credits, while the Ohio Funds also sold pre-refunded bonds to provide additional cash for their purchases of JobsOhio bonds. Overall, selling was minimal during this period, as the bonds in our portfolios generally offered higher yields than those available in the current marketplace.
As of February 28, 2013, all of these Funds continued to use inverse floating rate securities. We employ inverse floaters for a variety of reasons, including duration management, income enhancement and total return enhancement. During this period, NUO found it advantageous to add a new inverse floating rate trust funded with new paper from the University of Dayton.

Fund Leverage
IMPACT OF THE FUNDS’ LEVERAGE STRATEGIES ON PERFORMANCE
One important factor impacting the return of the Funds relative to their benchmarks was the Funds’ use of leverage. The Funds use leverage because their managers believe that, over time, leveraging provides opportunities for additional income and total return for common shareholders. However, use of leverage also can expose common shareholders to additional volatility. For example, as the prices of securities held by a Fund decline, the negative impact of these valuation changes on common share net asset value and common shareholder total return is magnified by the use of leverage.
Conversely, leverage may enhance common share returns during periods when the prices of securities held by a Fund generally are rising. Leverage had a positive impact on the performance of the Funds over this reporting period.
As of February 28, 2013, the Funds’ percentages of effective and regulatory leverage are as shown in the accompanying table:
Effective Leverage* | Regulatory Leverage* | |||||
| Fund | ||||||
| NUM | 34.56 | % | 31.68 | % | ||
| NUO | 34.77 | % | 29.83 | % | ||
| NXI | 34.91 | % | 31.08 | % | ||
| NBJ | 36.98 | % | 32.74 | % | ||
| NVJ | 37.21 | % | 34.54 | % | ||
| * | Effective Leverage is a Fund’s effective economic leverage, and includes both regulatory leverage and the leverage effects of certain derivative and other investments in a Fund’s portfolio that increase the Fund’s investment exposure. Currently, the leverage effects of Tender Option Bond (TOB) inverse floater holdings are included in effective leverage values, in addition to any regulatory leverage. Regulatory leverage consists of preferred shares issued or borrowings of a Fund. Both of these are part of a Fund’s capital structure. Regulatory leverage is sometimes referred to as “‘40 Act Leverage” and is subject to asset coverage limits set forth in the Investment Company Act of 1940. |

| Taxable-Equivalent Yield** | 8.26 | % | 7.93 | % | 7.14 | % | 7.24 | % | 7.22 | % | ||||||||||
| ** | Market Yield is based on the Fund’s current annualized monthly dividend divided by the Fund’s current market price as of the end of the reporting period. Taxable-Equivalent Yield represents the yield that must be earned on a fully taxable investment in order to equal the yield of the Fund on an after-tax basis. It is based on a combined federal and state income tax rate of 31.1% and 31.9% for the Michigan and Ohio Funds, respectively. When comparing a Fund to investments that generate qualified dividend income, the Taxable-Equivalent Yield is lower. |
All of the Funds in this report seek to pay stable dividends at rates that reflect each Fund’s past results and projected future performance. During certain periods, each Fund may pay dividends at a rate that may be more or less than the amount of net investment income actually earned by the Fund during the period. If a Fund has cumulatively earned more than it has paid in dividends, it holds the excess in reserve as undistributed net investment income (UNII) as part of the Fund’s NAV. Conversely, if a Fund has cumulatively paid dividends in excess of its earnings, the excess constitutes negative UNII that is likewise reflected in the Fund’s NAV. Each Fund will, over time, pay all of its net investment income as dividends to shareholders. As of February 28, 2013, all the Funds had positive UNII balances for both tax purposes and financial reporting purposes.

COMMON SHARE REPURCHASES

As of February 28, 2013 and the since inception of the Funds’ repurchase programs, the Funds have cumulatively repurchased and retired their common shares as shown in the accompanying table. Since the inception of the Funds’ repurchase programs, NUO and NBJ have not repurchased any of their outstanding common shares.

Risk Considerations
Fund shares are not guaranteed or endorsed by any bank or other insured depository institution, and are not federally insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Fund common shares are subject to a variety of risks, including:
Investment, Market and Price Risk. An investment in common shares is subject to investment risk, including the possible loss of the entire principal amount that you invest. Your investment in common shares represents an indirect investment in the municipal securities owned by the Fund, which generally trade in the over-the-counter markets. Shares of closed-end investment companies like these Funds frequently trade at a discount to their net asset value (NAV). Your common shares at any point in time may be worth less than your original investment, even after taking into account the reinvestment of Fund dividends and distributions.
Leverage Risk. Each Fund’s use of leverage creates the possibility of higher volatility for the Fund’s per share NAV, market price, distributions and returns. There is no assurance that a Fund’s leveraging strategy will be successful.
Tax Risk. The tax treatment of Fund distributions may be affected by new IRS interpretations of the Internal Revenue Code and future changes in tax laws and regulations.
Issuer Credit Risk. This is the risk that a security in a Fund’s portfolio will fail to make dividend or interest payments when due.
Interest Rate Risk. Fixed-income securities such as bonds, preferred, convertible and other debt securities will decline in value if market interest rates rise.
Reinvestment Risk. If market interest rates decline, income earned from a Fund’s portfolio may be reinvested at rates below that of the original bond that generated the income.
Call Risk or Prepayment Risk. Issuers may exercise their option to prepay principal earlier than scheduled, forcing a Fund to reinvest in lower-yielding securities.
Inverse Floater Risk. The Funds invest in inverse floaters. Due to their leveraged nature, these investments can greatly increase a Fund’s exposure to interest rate risk and credit risk. In addition, investments in inverse floaters involve the risk that the Fund could lose more than its original principal investment.

Nuveen Ohio Quality Income Municipal Fund
(formerly Nuveen Ohio Quality Income Municipal Fund, Inc.)
Nuveen Ohio Dividend Advantage Municipal Fund
Nuveen Ohio Dividend Advantage Municipal Fund 2
Nuveen Ohio Dividend Advantage Municipal Fund 3
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the portfolios of investments, of Nuveen Michigan Quality Income Municipal Fund, Nuveen Ohio Quality Income Municipal Fund, Nuveen Ohio Dividend Advantage Municipal Fund, Nuveen Ohio Dividend Advantage Municipal Fund 2, and Nuveen Ohio Dividend Advantage Municipal Fund 3 (the “Funds”) as of February 28, 2013, and the related statements of operations and cash flows for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated therein. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Funds’ internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Funds’ internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements and financial highlights, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of February 28, 2013, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers or by other appropriate auditing procedures where replies from brokers were not received. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial positions of Nuveen Michigan Quality Income Municipal Fund, Nuveen Ohio Quality Income Municipal Fund, Nuveen Ohio Dividend Advantage Municipal Fund, Nuveen Ohio Dividend Advantage Municipal Fund 2, and Nuveen Ohio Dividend Advantage Municipal Fund 3 at February 28, 2013, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the year then ended, the changes in their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated therein, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

1. General Information and Significant Accounting Policies
General Information
The state funds covered in this report and their corresponding Common share stock exchange symbols are Nuveen Michigan Quality Income Municipal Fund (NUM) (formerly Nuveen Michigan Quality Income Municipal Fund, Inc.), Nuveen Ohio Quality Income Municipal Fund (NUO) (formerly Nuveen Ohio Quality Income Municipal Fund, Inc.), Nuveen Ohio Dividend Advantage Municipal Fund (NXI), Nuveen Ohio Dividend Advantage Municipal Fund 2 (NBJ) and Nuveen Ohio Dividend Advantage Municipal Fund 3 (NVJ) (each a “Fund” and collectively, the “Funds”). Common shares of Michigan Quality Income (NUM) and Ohio Quality Income (NUO) are traded on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) while Common shares of Ohio Dividend Advantage (NXI), Ohio Dividend Advantage 2 (NBJ) and Ohio Dividend Advantage 3 (NVJ) are traded on the NYSE MKT. The Funds are registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as diversified, closed-end registered investment companies.
On December 31, 2012, the Funds’ investment adviser converted from a Delaware corporation to a Delaware limited liability company. As a result, Nuveen Fund Advisers, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Nuveen Investments, Inc. (“Nuveen”), changed its name to Nuveen Fund Advisers, LLC (the “Adviser”). There were no changes to the identities or roles of any personnel as a result of the change.
Each Fund seeks to provide current income exempt from both regular federal and designated state income taxes by investing primarily in a portfolio of municipal obligations issued by state and local government authorities within a single state or certain U.S. territories.
Fund Reorganizations
Effective before the opening of business on January 7, 2013, certain Michigan Funds (the “Acquired Funds”) were reorganized into the one, larger-state Michigan Fund included in this report (the “Acquiring Fund”) as follows:
| Acquired Funds | Acquiring Fund | ||
| Michigan Funds | |||
| Nuveen Michigan Premium Income Municipal Fund, Inc. (NMP) (“Michigan Premium Income (NMP)”) | Michigan Quality Income (NUM) | ||
| Nuveen Michigan Dividend Advantage Municipal Fund (NZW) (“Michigan Dividend Advantage (NZW)”) |
The reorganizations of the Michigan Funds were approved by the shareholders of the Acquired Funds at a special meeting on November 16, 2012.
On April 18, 2012, the Funds’ Board of Directors/Trustees approved a series of reorganizations for all the Ohio Funds included in this report. The reorganizations are intended to create one, larger-state Ohio Fund, which would potentially offer shareholders the following benefits:
| • | Lower Fund expense ratios (excluding the effects of leverage), as fixed costs are spread over a larger asset base; | |
| • | Enhanced secondary market trading, as larger Funds potentially make it easier for investors to buy and sell Fund shares; | |
| • | Lower per share trading costs through reduced bid/ask spreads due to a larger common share float; and | |
| • | Increased Fund flexibility in managing the structure and cost of leverage over time. |
The approved reorganizations are as follows:
Acquired Funds | Acquiring Fund | ||
| Ohio Funds | |||
| Ohio Dividend Advantage (NXI) | Ohio Quality Income (NUO) | ||
| Ohio Dividend Advantage 2 (NBJ) | |||
| Ohio Dividend Advantage 3 (NVJ) |
| Nuveen Investments | 75 |
| Notes to | ||
Financial Statements (continued) |
The reorganizations of Ohio Dividend Advantage (NXI), Ohio Dividend Advantage 2 (NBJ) and Ohio Dividend Advantage 3 (NVJ) (the “Acquired Funds”) into Ohio Quality income (NUO) (the “Acquiring Fund”) were approved by shareholders of the Acquired Funds at a special meeting on March 11, 2013, and were completed before the opening of business on April 8, 2013 (subsequent to the close of this reporting period).
In conjunction with the Reorganizations a change-of-domicile reorganization was approved to convert Michigan Quality Income (NUM) and Ohio Quality Income (NUO) from a Minnesota corporation to a Massachusetts business trust. As a result, on January 13, 2013 and April 8, 2013 the Funds’ names were changed to Nuveen Michigan Quality Income Municipal Fund and Nuveen Ohio Quality Income Municipal Fund, respectively. The Funds’ tickers remained unchanged.
Upon the closing of the Funds’ reorganizations (each a “Reorganization” and collectively, the “Reorganizations”), the Acquired Funds transferred their assets to the Acquiring Fund in exchange for common and preferred shares of the Acquiring Fund and the assumption by the Acquiring Fund of the liabilities of the Acquired Funds. The Acquired Funds were then liquidated, dissolved and terminated in accordance with their Declaration of Trust. Shareholders of the Acquired Funds became shareholders of the Acquiring Fund. Holders of common shares of the Acquired Funds received newly issued common shares of the Acquiring Fund, the aggregate net asset value of which was equal to the aggregate net asset value of the common shares of the Acquired Funds held immediately prior to the Reorganizations (including for this purpose fractional Acquiring Fund shares to which shareholders would be entitled). Fractional shares were sold on the open market and shareholders received cash in lieu of such fractional shares. Holders of preferred shares of the Acquired Funds received on a one-for-one basis newly issued preferred shares of the Acquiring Fund, in exchange for their preferred shares of the Acquired Funds held immediately prior to the Reorganizations. Details of the Funds’ Reorganizations are further described in the MuniFund Term Preferred Shares and Variable Rate MuniFund Term Preferred Shares sections of this footnote and Footnote 8 – Fund Reorganizations.
Significant Accounting Policies
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Funds in the preparation of their financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”).
Investment Valuation
Prices of municipal bonds are provided by a pricing service approved by the Funds’ Board of Directors/Trustees. These securities are generally classified as Level 2 for fair value measurement purposes. The pricing service establishes a security’s fair value using methods that may include consideration of the following: yields or prices of investments of comparable quality, type of issue, coupon, maturity and rating, market quotes or indications of value from security dealers, evaluations of anticipated cash flows or collateral, general market conditions and other information and analysis, including the obligor’s credit characteristics considered relevant. In pricing certain securities, particularly less liquid and lower quality securities, the pricing service may consider information about a security, its issuer, or market activity, provided by the Adviser. These securities are generally classified as Level 2 or Level 3 depending on the priority of the significant inputs.
Certain securities may not be able to be priced by the pre-established pricing methods as described above. Such securities may be valued by the Funds’ Board of Directors/Trustees or its designee at fair value. These securities generally include, but are not limited to, restricted securities (securities which may not be publicly sold without registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended) for which a pricing service is unable to provide a market price; securities whose trading has been formally suspended; debt securities that have gone into default and for which there is no current market quotation; a security whose market price is not available from a pre-established pricing source; a security with respect to which an event has occurred that is likely to materially affect the value of the security after the market has closed but before the calculation of a Fund’s net asset value (as may be the case in non-U.S. markets on which the security is primarily traded) or make it difficult or impossible to obtain a reliable market quotation; and a security whose price, as provided by the pricing service, is not deemed to reflect the security’s fair value. As a general principle, the fair value of a security would appear to be the amount that the owner might reasonably expect to receive for it in a current sale. A variety of factors may be considered in determining the fair value of these securities, which may include consideration of the following: yields or prices of investments of comparable quality, type of issue, coupon, maturity and rating, market quotes or indications of value from security dealers, evaluations of anticipated cash flows or collateral, general market conditions and other information and analysis, including the obligor’s credit characteristics considered relevant. These securities are generally classified as Level 2 or Level 3 depending on the priority of the significant inputs. Regardless of the method employed to value a particular security, all valuations are subject to review by the Funds’ Board of Directors/Trustees or its designee.
Refer to Footnote 2 – Fair Value Measurements for further details on the leveling of securities held by the Funds as of the end of the reporting period.
Investment Transactions
Investment transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Realized gains and losses from investment transactions are determined on the specific identification method, which is the same basis used for federal income tax purposes. Investments purchased on a when-issued/delayed delivery basis may have extended settlement periods. Any investments so purchased are subject to market fluctuation during this period. The Funds have instructed the custodian to earmark securities in the Funds’ portfolios with a current value at least equal to the amount of the when-issued/delayed delivery purchase commitments. As of February 28, 2013, there were no such outstanding purchase commitments in any of the Funds.
| 76 | Nuveen Investments |
Investment Income
Investment income, which reflects the amortization of premiums and includes accretion of discounts for financial reporting purposes, is recorded on an accrual basis. Investment income also reflects paydown gains and losses, if any.
Professional Fees
Professional fees presented on the Statement of Operations consist of legal fees incurred in the normal course of operations, audit fees, tax consulting fees and, in some cases, workout expenditures. Workout expenditures are incurred in an attempt to protect or enhance an investment, or to pursue other claims or legal actions on behalf of Fund shareholders. Legal fee refund presented on the Statement of Operations reflects a refund of workout expenditures paid in a prior reporting period, when applicable.
Income Taxes
Each Fund is a separate taxpayer for federal income tax purposes. Each Fund intends to distribute substantially all of its net investment income and net capital gains to shareholders and to otherwise comply with the requirements of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required. Furthermore, each Fund intends to satisfy conditions that will enable interest from municipal securities, which is exempt from regular federal and designated state income taxes, to retain such tax-exempt status when distributed to shareholders of the Funds. Net realized capital gains and ordinary income distributions paid by the Funds are subject to federal taxation.
For all open tax years and all major taxing jurisdictions, management of the Funds has concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions that would require recognition in the financial statements. Open tax years are those that are open for examination by taxing authorities (i.e., generally the last four tax year ends and the interim tax period since then). Furthermore, management of the Funds is also not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months.
Dividends and Distributions to Common Shareholders
Dividends from net investment income are declared monthly. Net realized capital gains and/or market discount from investment transactions, if any, are distributed to shareholders at least annually. Furthermore, capital gains are distributed only to the extent they exceed available capital loss carryforwards.
Distributions to Common shareholders of net investment income, net realized capital gains and/or market discount, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The amount and timing of distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from U.S. GAAP.
Auction Rate Preferred Shares
Each Fund is authorized to issue Auction Rate Preferred Shares (“ARPS”). As of February 29, 2012, the Funds redeemed all of their outstanding ARPS at liquidation value.
MuniFund Term Preferred Shares
The following Funds have issued and outstanding MuniFund Term Preferred (“MTP”) Shares, with a $10 stated (“par”) value per share. Each Fund’s MTP Shares may be issued in one or more Series and trade on the NYSE/NYSE MKT. Dividends on MTP Shares, which are recognized as interest expense for financial reporting purposes, are paid monthly at a fixed annual rate, subject to adjustments in certain circumstances.
In connection with Michigan Quality Income’s (NUM) Reorganizations, holders of MTP Shares of the Acquired Funds received on a one-for-one basis newly issued MTP Shares of the Acquiring Fund, in exchange for MTP Shares of the Acquired Funds held immediately prior to the Reorganizations. Prior to the closing of the Reorganizations, the Acquired Fund’s outstanding MTP Shares and annual interest rate by NYSE MKT “ticker” symbol were as follows:
| Series | NYSE MKTTicker | Shares Outstanding | Shares Outstanding at $10 Per Share Liquidation Value | Annual Interest | ||||||||||||

* MTP Shares issued in connection with the Reorganizations.
Each Fund is obligated to redeem its MTP Shares by the date as specified in its offering document (“Term Redemption Date”), unless earlier redeemed or repurchased by the Fund. MTP Shares are subject to optional and mandatory redemption in certain circumstances. MTP Shares will be subject to redemption at the option of each Fund (“Optional Redemption Date”), subject to a payment of premium for one year following the Optional Redemption Date (“Premium Expiration Date”), and at par thereafter. MTP Shares also will be subject to redemption, at the option of each Fund, at par in the event of certain changes in the credit rating of the MTP Shares. Each Fund may be obligated to redeem certain of the MTP Shares if the Fund fails to maintain certain asset coverage and leverage ratio requirements and such failures are not cured by the applicable cure date. The redemption price per share is equal to the sum of the liquidation value per share plus any accumulated but unpaid dividends. The Term Redemption Date, Optional Redemption Date and Premium Expiration Date for each Fund’s series of MTP Shares by NYSE or NYSE MKT ticker symbol are as follows:

For financial reporting purposes only, the liquidation value of MTP Shares is recorded as a liability and recognized as “MuniFund Term Preferred (MTP) Shares, at liquidation value” on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Unpaid dividends on MTP Shares are recognized as a component of “Interest payable” on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Costs incurred by the Funds in connection with their offerings of MTP Shares were recorded as a deferred charge, which are amortized over the life of the shares and are recognized as components of “Deferred offering costs” on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities and “Interest expense and amortization of offering costs” on the Statement of Operations. Dividends paid on MTP Shares and each Fund’s amortized deferred charges are recognized as a component of “Interest expense and amortization of offering costs” on the Statement of Operations.
Variable Rate MuniFund Term Preferred Shares
The following Funds have issued and outstanding Variable Rate MuniFund Term Preferred (“VMTP”) Shares, with a $100,000 liquidation value per share. Michigan Quality Income (NUM) and Ohio Quality Income (NUO) issued their VMTP Shares in a privately negotiated offering. Each Fund’s VMTP Shares were offered to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933. As of February 28, 2013, the number of VMTP Shares outstanding, at liquidation value, for each Fund is as follows:

Financial Statements (continued) |
Inverse Floating Rate Securities
Each Fund is authorized to invest in inverse floating rate securities. An inverse floating rate security is created by depositing a municipal bond, typically with a fixed interest rate, into a special purpose trust created by a broker-dealer. In turn, this trust (a) issues floating rate certificates, in face amounts equal to some fraction of the deposited bond’s par amount or market value, that typically pay short-term tax-exempt interest rates to third parties, and (b) issues to a long-term investor (such as one of the Funds) an inverse floating rate certificate (sometimes referred to as an “inverse floater”) that represents all remaining or residual interest in the trust. The income received by the inverse floater holder varies inversely with the short-term rate paid to the floating rate certificates’ holders, and in most circumstances the inverse floater holder bears substantially all of the underlying bond’s downside investment risk and also benefits disproportionately from any potential appreciation of the underlying bond’s value. The price of an inverse floating rate security will be more volatile than that of the underlying bond because the interest rate is dependent on not only the fixed coupon rate of the underlying bond but also on the short-term interest paid on the floating rate certificates, and because the inverse floating rate security essentially bears the risk of loss of the greater face value of the underlying bond.
A Fund may purchase an inverse floating rate security in a secondary market transaction without first owning the underlying bond (referred to as an “externally-deposited inverse floater”), or instead by first selling a fixed-rate bond to a broker-dealer for deposit into the special purpose trust and receiving in turn the residual interest in the trust (referred to as a “self-deposited inverse floater”). The inverse floater held by a Fund gives the Fund the right (a) to cause the holders of the floating rate certificates to tender their notes at par, and (b) to have the broker transfer the fixed-rate bond held by the trust to the Fund, thereby collapsing the trust. An investment in an externally-deposited inverse floater is identified in the Portfolio of Investments as “(IF) – Inverse floating rate investment.” An investment in a self-deposited inverse floater is accounted for as a financing transaction. In such instances, a fixed-rate bond deposited into a special purpose trust is identified in the Portfolio of Investments as “(UB) – Underlying bond of an inverse floating rate trust reflected as a financing transaction,” with the Fund accounting for the short-term floating rate certificates issued by the trust as “Floating rate obligations” on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. In addition, the Fund reflects in “Investment Income” the entire earnings of the underlying bond and related interest paid to the holders of the short-term floating rate certificates as a component of “Interest expense and amortization of offering costs” on the Statement of Operations.
During the fiscal year ended February 28, 2013, each Fund invested in externally-deposited inverse floaters and/or self-deposited inverse floaters.
Each Fund may also enter into shortfall and forbearance agreements (sometimes referred to as a “recourse trust” or “credit recovery swap”) (such agreements referred to herein as “Recourse Trusts”) with a broker-dealer by which a Fund agrees to reimburse the broker-dealer, in certain circumstances, for the difference between the liquidation value of the fixed-rate bond held by the trust and the liquidation value of the floating rate certificates issued by the trust plus any shortfalls in interest cash flows. Under these agreements, a Fund’s potential exposure to losses related to or on inverse floaters may increase beyond the value of a Fund’s inverse floater investments as a Fund may potentially be liable to fulfill all amounts owed to holders of the floating rate certificates. At period end, any such shortfall is recognized as “Unrealized depreciation on Recourse Trusts” on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. As of February 28, 2013, each Fund’s maximum exposure to externally-deposited Recourse Trusts was as follows:
| Michigan | Ohio | Ohio | Ohio | Ohio | ||||||||||||
| Quality | Quality | Dividend | Dividend | Dividend | ||||||||||||
| Income | Income | Advantage | Advantage 2 | Advantage 3 | ||||||||||||
| (NUM | ) | (NUO | ) | (NXI | ) | (NBJ | ) | (NVJ | ) | |||||||
| Maximum exposure to Recourse Trusts | $ | 8,430,000 | $ | 6,150,000 | $ | 1,280,000 | $ | 480,000 | $ | 320,000 |
The average floating rate obligations outstanding and average annual interest rate and fees related to self-deposited inverse floaters during the fiscal year ended February 28, 2013, were as follows:

Derivative Financial Instruments
Each Fund is authorized to invest in certain derivative instruments, including foreign currency forwards, futures, options and swap contracts. Although the Funds are authorized to invest in such derivative instruments, and may do so in the future, they did not make any such investments during the fiscal year ended February 28, 2013.
| 80 | Nuveen Investments |
Market and Counterparty Credit Risk
In the normal course of business each Fund may invest in financial instruments and enter into financial transactions where risk of potential loss exists due to changes in the market (market risk) or failure of the other party to the transaction to perform (counterparty credit risk). The potential loss could exceed the value of the financial assets recorded on the financial statements. Financial assets, which potentially expose each Fund to counterparty credit risk, consist principally of cash due from counterparties on forward, option and swap transactions, when applicable. The extent of each Fund’s exposure to counterparty credit risk in respect to these financial assets approximates their carrying value as recorded on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Futures contracts, when applicable, expose a Fund to minimal counterparty credit risk as they are exchange traded and the exchange’s clearinghouse, which is counterparty to all exchange traded futures, guarantees the futures contracts against default.
Each Fund helps manage counterparty credit risk by entering into agreements only with counterparties the Adviser believes have the financial resources to honor their obligations and by having the Adviser monitor the financial stability of the counterparties. Additionally, counterparties may be required to pledge collateral daily (based on the daily valuation of the financial asset) on behalf of each Fund with a value approximately equal to the amount of any unrealized gain above a pre-determined threshold. Reciprocally, when each Fund has an unrealized loss, the Funds have instructed the custodian to pledge assets of the Funds as collateral with a value approximately equal to the amount of the unrealized loss above a pre-determined threshold. Collateral pledges are monitored and subsequently adjusted if and when the valuations fluctuate, either up or down, by at least the pre-determined threshold amount.
Zero Coupon Securities
Each Fund is authorized to invest in zero coupon securities. A zero coupon security does not pay a regular interest coupon to its holders during the life of the security. Income to the holder of the security comes from accretion of the difference between the original purchase price of the security at issuance and the par value of the security at maturity and is effectively paid at maturity. The market prices of zero coupon securities generally are more volatile than the market prices of securities that pay interest periodically.
Indemnifications
Under the Funds’ organizational documents, their officers and directors/trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Funds. In addition, in the normal course of business, the Funds enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications to other parties. The Funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Funds that have not yet occurred. However, the Funds have not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts and expect the risk of loss to be remote.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets applicable to Common shares from operations during the reporting period. Actual results may differ from those estimates.
2. Fair Value Measurements
Fair value is defined as the price that the Funds would receive upon selling an investment or transferring a liability in an orderly transaction to an independent buyer in the principal or most advantageous market for the investment. A three-tier hierarchy is used to maximize the use of observable market data and minimize the use of unobservable inputs and to establish classification of fair value measurements for disclosure purposes.
Observable inputs reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Observable inputs are based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity. Unobservable inputs reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Unobservable inputs are based on the best information available in the circumstances. The following is a summary of the three-tiered hierarchy of valuation input levels.
| Level 1 — | Inputs are unadjusted and prices are determined using quoted prices in active markets for identical securities. | |
| Level 2 — | Prices are determined using other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.). | |
| Level 3 — | Prices are determined using significant unobservable inputs (including management’s assumptions in determining the fair value of investments). |
The inputs or methodologies used for valuing securities are not an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. The following is a summary of each Fund’s fair value measurements as of the end of the reporting period:

* Refer to the Fund’s Portfolio of Investments for industry classifications.
The Nuveen funds’ Board of Directors/Trustees is responsible for the valuation process and has delegated the oversight of the daily valuation process to the Adviser’s Valuation Committee. The Valuation Committee, pursuant to the valuation policies and procedures adopted by the Board of Directors/Trustees, is responsible for making fair value determinations, evaluating the effectiveness of the funds’ pricing policies, and reporting to the Board of Directors/Trustees. The Valuation Committee is aided in its efforts by the Adviser’s dedicated Securities Valuation Team, which is responsible for administering the daily valuation process and applying fair value methodologies as approved by the Valuation Committee. When determining the reliability of independent pricing services for investments owned by the funds, the Valuation Committee, among other things, conducts due diligence reviews of the pricing services and monitors the quality of security prices received through various testing reports conducted by the Securities Valuation Team.
The Valuation Committee will consider pricing methodologies it deems relevant and appropriate when making fair value determinations. Examples of possible methodologies include, but are not limited to, multiple of earnings; discount from market of a similar freely traded security; discounted cash-flow analysis; book value or a multiple thereof; risk premium/yield analysis; yield to maturity; and/or fundamental investment analysis. The Valuation Committee will also consider factors it deems relevant and appropriate in light of the facts and circumstances. Examples of possible factors include, but are not limited to, the type of security; the issuer’s financial statements; the purchase price of the security; the discount from market value of unrestricted securities of the same class at the time of purchase; analysts’ research and observations from financial institutions; information regarding any transactions or offers with respect to the security; the existence of merger proposals or tender offers affecting the security; the price and extent of public trading in similar securities of the issuer or comparable companies; and the existence of a shelf registration for restricted securities.
For each portfolio security that has been fair valued pursuant to the policies adopted by the Board of Directors/Trustees, the fair value price is compared against the last available and next available market quotations. The Valuation Committee reviews the results of such testing and fair valuation occurrences are reported to the Board of Directors/Trustees.
3. Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
The Funds record derivative instruments at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized on the Statement of Operations, when applicable. Even though the Funds’ investments in derivatives may represent economic hedges, they are not considered to be hedge transactions for financial reporting purposes. The Funds did not invest in derivative instruments during the fiscal year ended February 28, 2013.

6. Income Tax Information
The following information is presented on an income tax basis. Differences between amounts for financial statement and federal income tax purposes are primarily due to timing differences in recognizing taxable market discount, timing differences in recognizing certain gains and losses on investment transactions and the treatment of investments in inverse floating rate securities reflected as financing transactions, if any. To the extent that differences arise that are permanent in nature, such amounts are reclassified within the capital accounts as detailed below. Temporary differences do not require reclassification. Temporary and permanent differences do not impact the net asset values of the Funds.
As of February 28, 2013, the cost and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of investments, as determined on a federal income tax basis, were as follows:

7. Management Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates
Each Fund’s management fee consists of two components – a fund-level fee, based only on the amount of assets within the Fund, and a complex-level fee, based on the aggregate amount of all eligible fund assets managed by the Adviser. This pricing structure enables Fund shareholders to benefit from growth in the assets within their respective Fund as well as from growth in the amount of complex-wide assets managed by the Adviser.
The annual fund-level fee for each Fund, payable monthly, is calculated according to the following schedules:
| Michigan Quality Income (NUM) | ||||
| Ohio Quality Income (NUO) | ||||
| Average Daily Managed Assets* | Fund-Level Fee Rate | |||
| For the first $125 million | .4500 | % | ||
| For the next $125 million | .4375 | |||
| For the next $250 million | .4250 | |||
| For the next $500 million | .4125 | |||
| For the next $1 billion | .4000 | |||
| For the next $3 billion | .3875 | |||
| For managed assets over $5 billion | .3750 | |||
| 86 | Nuveen Investments |
| Ohio Dividend Advantage (NXI) | ||||
| Ohio Dividend Advantage 2 (NBJ) | ||||
| Ohio Dividend Advantage 3 (NVJ) | ||||
| Average Daily Managed Assets* | Fund-Level Fee Rate | |||
| For the first $125 million | .4500 | % | ||
| For the next $125 million | .4375 | |||
| For the next $250 million | .4250 | |||
| For the next $500 million | .4125 | |||
| For the next $1 billion | .4000 | |||
| For managed assets over $2 billion | .3750 | |||
The annual complex-level fee for each Fund, payable monthly, is calculated according to the following schedule:
| Complex-Level Managed Asset Breakpoint Level* | Effective Rate at Breakpoint Level | |||
| $55 billion | .2000 | % | ||
| $56 billion | .1996 | |||
| $57 billion | .1989 | |||
| $60 billion | .1961 | |||
| $63 billion | .1931 | |||
| $66 billion | .1900 | |||
| $71 billion | .1851 | |||
| $76 billion | .1806 | |||
| $80 billion | .1773 | |||
| $91 billion | .1691 | |||
| $125 billion | .1599 | |||
| $200 billion | .1505 | |||
| $250 billion | .1469 | |||
| $300 billion | .1445 | |||
| * | For the fund-level and complex-level fees, managed assets include closed-end fund assets managed by the Adviser that are attributable to financial leverage. For these purposes, financial leverage includes the funds’ 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’s issuance of floating rate securities, subject to an agreement by the Adviser 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 “eligible assets.” Eligible assets do not include assets attributable to investments in other Nuveen Funds or assets in excess of $2 billion added to the Nuveen Fund complex in connection with the Adviser’s assumption of the management of the former First American Funds effective January 1, 2011. As of February 28, 2013, the complex-level fee rate for each of these Funds was .1668%. |
The management fee compensates the Adviser for overall investment advisory and administrative services and general office facilities. The Adviser is responsible for each Fund’s overall strategy and asset allocation decisions. The Adviser has entered into sub-advisory agreements with Nuveen Asset Management, LLC (the “Sub-Adviser”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Adviser, under which the Sub-Adviser manages the investment portfolios of the Funds. The Sub-Adviser is compensated for its services to the Funds from the management fees paid to the Adviser.
The Funds pay no compensation directly to those of its directors/trustees who are affiliated with the Adviser or to its officers, all of whom receive remuneration for their services to the Funds from the Adviser or its affiliates. The Board of Directors/Trustees has adopted a deferred compensation plan for independent directors/trustees that enables directors/trustees to elect to defer receipt of all or a portion of the annual compensation they are entitled to receive from certain Nuveen-advised funds. Under the plan, deferred amounts are treated as though equal dollar amounts had been invested in shares of select Nuveen-advised funds.
For the first ten years of Ohio Dividend Advantage 3’s (NVJ) operations, the Adviser has agreed to reimburse the Fund, as a percentage of average daily managed assets, for fees and expenses in the amounts and for the time periods set forth below:
| Year Ending | Year Ending | ||||
| March 31, | March 31, | ||||
| 2002* | .30 | % | 2008 | .25 | % |
| 2003 | .30 | 2009 | .20 | ||
| 2004 | .30 | 2010 | .15 | ||
| 2005 | .30 | 2011 | .10 | ||
| 2006 | .30 | 2012 | .05 | ||
| 2007 | .30 |
* From the commencement of operations. |

The Adviser has not agreed to reimburse Ohio Dividend Advantage 3 (NVJ) for any portion of its fees and expenses beyond March 31, 2012.
8. Fund Reorganizations
The Reorganizations were structured to qualify as tax-free reorganizations under the Internal Revenue Code for federal income tax purposes, and the Acquired Funds’ shareholders will recognize no gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of the Reorganizations. Prior to the closing of each of the Reorganizations, the Acquired Funds distributed all of their net investment income and capital gains, if any. Such a distribution may be taxable to the Acquired Funds’ shareholders for federal income tax purposes.
The cost, fair value and net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of the investments of the Acquired Funds as of the date of their respective Reorganization, were as follows:
Michigan Premium Income (NMP | ) | Michigan Dividend Advantage (NZW | ) | ||||
| Cost of investments | $ | 157,858,131 | $ | 43,190,967 | |||
| Fair value of investments | 171,029,613 | 47,444,096 | |||||
| Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of investments | 13,171,482 | 4,253,129 |
For financial reporting purposes, assets received and shares issued by the Acquiring Fund were recorded at fair value; however, the cost basis of the investments received from the Acquired Funds were carried forward to align ongoing reporting of the Acquiring Fund’s realized and unrealized gains and losses with amounts distributable to shareholders for tax purposes.
For accounting and performance reporting purposes, the Acquiring Fund is the survivor. The shares outstanding, net assets and net asset value (“NAV”) per Common share immediately before and after the Reorganizations are as follows:
| Michigan | Michigan | ||||||
| Premium | Dividend | ||||||
| Income | Advantage | ||||||
| Acquired Funds – Prior to Reorganizations | (NMP | ) | (NZW | ) | |||
| Common shares outstanding | 7,605,648 | 2,053,086 | |||||
| Net assets applicable to Common shares | $ | 119,123,782 | $ | 31,871,256 | |||
| NAV per Common share outstanding | $ | 15.66 | $ | 15.52 |
| Michigan | ||||
| Quality | ||||
| Income | ||||
| Acquiring Fund – Prior to Reorganizations | (NUM | ) | ||
| Common shares outstanding | 11,554,253 | |||
| Net assets applicable to Common shares | $ | 187,525,056 | ||
| NAV per Common share outstanding | $ | 16.23 |
| Michigan | ||||
| Quality | ||||
| Income | ||||
| Acquiring Fund – Post Reorganizations | (NUM | ) | ||
| Common shares outstanding | 20,857,687 | |||
| Net assets applicable to Common shares | $ | 338,520,095 | ||
| NAV per Common share outstanding | $ | 16.23 |
| 88 | Nuveen Investments |
The beginning of the Acquired Funds’ current fiscal period was March 1, 2012.
Assuming the Reorganizations had been completed on March 1, 2012, the beginning of the Acquiring Fund’s current fiscal period, the pro forma results of operations for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2013, are as follows:
| Michigan | ||||
| Quality | ||||
| Income | ||||
| (NUM | ) | |||
| Net investment income (loss) | $ | 16,706,558 | ||
| Net realized and unrealized gains (losses) | 11,540,529 | |||
| Change in net assets resulting from operations | 28,247,087 |
Because the combined investment portfolios for each Reorganization have been managed as a single integrated portfolio since each Reorganization was completed, it is not practicable to separate the amounts of revenue and earnings of the Acquired Funds that have been included in the Statement of Operations since the Reorganizations were consummated.
In connection with the Reorganizations, the Acquiring Funds have accrued for certain associated costs and expenses. Such amounts are included as components of “Accrued reorganization expenses” on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities and “Reorganization expenses” on the Statement of Operations.
9. New Accounting Pronouncements
Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities
In January 2013, Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2013-01, Clarifying the Scope of Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities, replaced ASU 2011-11, Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities. ASU 2013-01 is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2013. ASU 2011-11 was intended to enhance disclosure requirements on the offsetting of financial assets and liabilities. ASU 2013-01 limits the scope of the new balance sheet offsetting disclosures to derivatives, repurchase agreements and securities lending transactions to the extent that they are (1) offset in the financial statements or (2) subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement or similar agreement. Management is currently evaluating the application of ASU 2013-01 and its impact to the financial statements and footnote disclosures, if any.

Agreement Approval Process (Unaudited)
Board Approvals of New Advisory Agreements for Nuveen Michigan Quality Income Municipal Fund (successor to Nuveen Michigan Quality Income Municipal Fund, Inc.) and Nuveen Ohio Quality Income Municipal Fund (successor to Nuveen Ohio Quality Income Municipal Fund, Inc.)
The Board of Trustees or Directors (as the case may be) (each, a “Board” and each Trustee or Director, a “Board Member”) of the Nuveen Michigan Quality Income Municipal Fund, Inc. (the “Michigan Quality Income Fund”), the Nuveen Ohio Quality Income Municipal Fund, Inc. (the “Ohio Quality Income Fund”), the Nuveen Ohio Dividend Advantage Municipal Fund (the “Ohio Dividend Advantage Fund”), the Nuveen Ohio Dividend Advantage Municipal Fund 2 (the “Ohio Dividend Advantage Fund 2”) and the Nuveen Ohio Dividend Advantage Municipal Fund 3 (the “Ohio Dividend Advantage Fund 3” and, together with the Michigan Quality Income Fund, the Ohio Quality Income Fund, the Ohio Dividend Advantage Fund, and the Ohio Dividend Advantage Fund 2, the “Funds”), including the Board Members who were not parties to the Funds’ advisory or sub-advisory agreements or “interested persons” of any such parties (the “Independent Board Members”), was responsible for approving the investment management agreements (each, an “Investment Management Agreement”) between each Fund and Nuveen Fund Advisors, LLC (formerly known as Nuveen Fund Advisors, Inc.) (the “Advisor”) and the sub-advisory agreements (each a “Sub-Advisory Agreement”) between the Advisor and Nuveen Asset Management, LLC (the “Sub-Advisor”) and their periodic continuation. Pursuant to the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, the Board was required to consider the continuation of the Advisory Agreements for the Funds on an annual basis. Accordingly, at an in-person meeting held on May 21-23, 2012 (the “May Meeting”), the Board, including a majority of the Independent Board Members, considered and approved the continuation of the Investment Management Agreements and the Sub-Advisory Agreements for the Funds (referred to collectively as the “May Advisory Agreements”) for an additional one-year period.
In addition, in 2012, the Board was apprised of the potential reorganizations (collectively, the “Ohio Fund Reorganizations”) of the Ohio Dividend Advantage Fund, the Ohio Dividend Advantage Fund 2 and the Ohio Dividend Advantage Fund 3 into the Ohio Quality Income Fund and, in connection therewith, the potential change-of-domicile reorganization (the “Ohio Domicile Change Reorganization”) to convert the Ohio Quality Income Fund from a Minnesota corporation (the “Ohio Predecessor Fund”) to a Massachusetts business trust (the “Ohio Successor Fund”) to be known as the Nuveen Ohio Quality Income Municipal Fund. Further, in 2012, the Board was apprised of the

Agreement Approval Process (Unaudited) (continued)
potential reorganizations (collectively, the “Michigan Fund Reorganizations”) of the Nuveen Michigan Premium Income Municipal Fund, Inc. and the Nuveen Michigan Dividend Advantage Municipal Fund into the Michigan Quality Income Fund, and, in connection therewith, the potential change-of-domicile reorganization (the “Michigan Domicile Change Reorganization”) to convert the Michigan Quality Income Fund from a Minnesota corporation (the “Michigan Predecessor Fund”) to a Massachusetts business trust (the “Michigan Successor Fund”) to be known as the Nuveen Michigan Quality Income Municipal Fund. The Ohio Fund Reorganizations and the Michigan Fund Reorganizations are collectively the “Fund Reorganizations”; the Ohio Domicile Change Reorganization and the Michigan Domicile Change Reorganization are collectively the “Domicile Change Reorganizations”; the Ohio Predecessor Fund and the Michigan Predecessor Fund are each a “Predecessor Fund”; and the Ohio Successor Fund and the Michigan Successor Fund are each a “Successor Fund.” The requisite Board and shareholder approvals for the Fund Reorganizations and the Domicile Change Reorganizations were obtained at various times and meetings. Accordingly, as of January 7, 2013, the Michigan Domicile Change Reorganization and the Michigan Fund Reorganizations were completed and, as of April 8, 2013, the Ohio Domicile Change Reorganization and the Ohio Fund Reorganizations were completed.
In order to permit the Advisor and the Sub-Advisor to continue to serve as investment adviser and sub-adviser, respectively, to each Successor Fund upon the closing of its respective Domicile Change Reorganization, at a meeting held on October 14, 2012, the Board of Trustees of each Successor Fund (each, a “Successor Board”) was asked to consider and approve an investment management agreement between the Advisor and the respective Successor Fund and a sub-advisory agreement between the Advisor and the Sub-Advisor on behalf of such Successor Fund (collectively, the “New Advisory Agreements”). Given that each re-domicile was not expected to reduce the level or nature of services provided and the New Advisory Agreements were substantially the same as the respective May Advisory Agreements for the Predecessor Funds, the factors considered and determinations made at the May Meeting in approving the Advisor and the Sub-Advisor as investment adviser and sub-adviser, respectively, to the Predecessor Funds were equally applicable to the approval of the New Advisory Agreements for the Successor Funds. Accordingly, the Board Members of each Successor Board, including the Independent Board Members, approved the applicable New Advisory Agreements.

Reinvest Automatically,
Easily and Conveniently
Nuveen makes reinvesting easy. A phone call is all it takes to set up your reinvestment account.
Nuveen Closed-End Funds Automatic Reinvestment Plan
Your Nuveen Closed-End Fund allows you to conveniently reinvest distributions in additional Fund shares.
By choosing to reinvest, you’ll be able to invest money regularly and automatically, and watch your investment grow through the power of compounding. Just like distributions in cash, there may be times when income or capital gains taxes may be payable on distributions that are reinvested.
It is important to note that an automatic reinvestment plan does not ensure a profit, nor does it protect you against loss in a declining market.
Easy and convenient
To make recordkeeping easy and convenient, each month you’ll receive a statement showing your total distributions, the date of investment, the shares acquired and the price per share, and the total number of shares you own.
How shares are purchased
The shares you acquire by reinvesting will either be purchased on the open market or newly issued by the Fund. If the shares are trading at or above net asset value at the time of valuation, the Fund will issue new shares at the greater of the net asset value or 95% of the then-current market price. If the shares are trading at less than net asset value, shares for your account will be purchased on the open market. If the Plan Agent begins purchasing Fund shares on the open market while shares are trading below net asset value, but the Fund’s shares subsequently trade at or above their net asset value before the Plan Agent is able to complete its purchases, the Plan Agent may cease open-market purchases and may invest the uninvested portion of the distribution in newly-issued Fund shares at a price equal to the greater of the shares’ net asset value or 95% of the shares’ market value on the last business day immediately prior to the purchase date. Distributions received to purchase shares in the open market will normally be invested shortly after the distribution payment date. No interest will be paid on distributions awaiting reinvestment. Because the market price of the shares may increase before purchases are completed, the average purchase price per share may
| Nuveen Investments | 97 |
Reinvest Automatically,
Easily and Conveniently (continued)
exceed the market price at the time of valuation, resulting in the acquisition of fewer shares than if the distribution had been paid in shares issued by the Fund. A pro rata portion of any applicable brokerage commissions on open market purchases will be paid by Plan participants. These commissions usually will be lower than those charged on individual transactions.
Flexible
You may change your distribution option or withdraw from the Plan at any time, should your needs or situation change.
You can reinvest whether your shares are registered in your name, or in the name of a brokerage firm, bank, or other nominee. Ask your investment advisor if his or her firm will participate on your behalf. Participants whose shares are registered in the name of one firm may not be able to transfer the shares to another firm and continue to participate in the Plan.
The Fund reserves the right to amend or terminate the Plan at any time. Although the Fund reserves the right to amend the Plan to include a service charge payable by the participants, there is no direct service charge to participants in the Plan at this time.

Glossary of Terms
Used in this Report
| ■ | Auction Rate Bond: An auction rate bond is a security whose interest payments are adjusted periodically through an auction process, which process typically also serves as a means for buying and selling the bond. Auctions that fail to attract enough buyers for all the shares offered for sale are deemed to have “failed,” with current holders receiving a formula-based interest rate until the next scheduled auction. |
| ■ | Average Annual Total Return: This is a commonly used method to express an investment’s performance over a particular, usually multi-year time period. It expresses the return that would have been necessary each year to equal the investment’s actual cumulative performance (including change in NAV or market price and reinvested dividends and capital gains distributions, if any) over the time period being considered. |
| ■ | Duration: Duration is a measure of the expected period over which a bond’s principal and interest will be paid, and consequently is a measure of the sensitivity of a bond’s or bond Fund’s value to changes when market interest rates change. Generally, the longer a bond’s or Fund’s duration, the more the price of the bond or Fund will change as interest rates change. |
| ■ | Effective Leverage: Effective leverage is a Fund’s effective economic leverage, and includes both regulatory leverage (see leverage) and the leverage effects of certain derivative investments in a Fund’s portfolio. Currently, the leverage effects of Tender Option Bond (TOB) inverse floater holdings are included in effective leverage values, in addition to any regulatory leverage. |
| ■ | Gross Domestic Product (GDP): The total market value of all final goods and services produced in a country/region in a given year, equal to total consumer, investment and government spending, plus the value of exports, minus the value of imports. |
| ■ | Inverse Floating Rate Securities: Inverse floating rate securities, also known as inverse floaters or tender option bonds (TOBs), are created by depositing a municipal bond, typically with a fixed interest rate, into a special purpose trust created by a broker-dealer. This trust, in turn, (a) issues floating rate certificates typically paying short-term tax-exempt interest rates to third parties in amounts equal to some fraction of the deposited bond’s par amount or market value, and (b) issues an inverse floating rate certificate (sometimes referred to as an “inverse floater”) to an investor (such as a Fund) interested in gaining investment exposure to a long-term municipal bond. The income received by the holder of the inverse floater varies inversely with the short-term rate paid to the floating rate certificates’ holders, and in most circumstances the holder of the inverse floater bears substantially all of the underlying bond’s downside investment risk. The holder of the inverse floater typically also benefits disproportionately from any potential appreciation of the underlying bond’s value. |
| Nuveen Investments | 99 |
Glossary of Terms
Used in this Report (continued)
| Hence, an inverse floater essentially represents an investment in the underlying bond on a leveraged basis. | |
| ■ | Leverage: Using borrowed money to invest in securities or other assets, seeking to increase the return of an investment or portfolio. |
| ■ | Lipper Michigan Municipal Debt Funds Classification Average: Calculated using the returns of all closed-end funds in this category. Lipper returns account for the effects of management fees and assume reinvestment of distributions, but do not reflect any applicable sales charges. |
| ■ | Lipper Other States Municipal Debt Funds Classification Average: Calculated using the returns of all closed-end funds in this category. Lipper returns account for the effects of management fees and assume reinvestment of distributions, but do not reflect any applicable sales charges. |
| ■ | Net Asset Value (NAV): The net market value of all securities held in a portfolio. |
| ■ | Net Asset Value (NAV) Per Share: The market value of one share of a mutual fund or closed-end fund. For a Fund, the NAV is calculated daily by taking the Fund’s total assets (securities, cash, and accrued earnings), subtracting the Fund’s liabilities, and dividing by the number of shares outstanding. |
| ■ | Pre-Refunding: Pre-Refunding, also known as advanced refundings or refinancings, is a procedure used by state and local governments to refinance municipal bonds to lower interest expenses. The issuer sells new bonds with a lower yield and uses the proceeds to buy U.S. Treasury securities, the interest from which is used to make payments on the higher-yielding bonds. Because of this collateral, pre-refunding generally raises a bond’s credit rating and thus its value. |
| ■ | Regulatory Leverage: Regulatory leverage consists of preferred shares issued by or borrowings of a Fund. Both of these are part of a Fund’s capital structure. Regulatory leverage is sometimes referred to as “‘40 Act Leverage” and is subject to asset coverage limits set in the Investment Company Act of 1940. |
| ■ | S&P Municipal Bond Indexes for Michigan and Ohio: Unleveraged, market value-weighted indexes designed to measure the performance of the tax-exempt, investment-grade Michigan and Ohio municipal bond markets, respectively. Index returns assume reinvestment of distributions, but do not reflect any applicable sales charges or management fees. |
| ■ | S&P Municipal Bond Index: An unleveraged, market value-weighted index designed to measure the performance of the tax-exempt, investment- grade U.S. municipal bond market. Index returns assume reinvestment of distributions, but do not reflect any applicable sales charges or management fees. |
| ■ | Total Investment Exposure: Total investment exposure is a Fund’s assets managed by the Adviser that are attributable to financial leverage. For these purposes, financial leverage includes a Fund’s use of preferred stock and borrowings and 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’s issuance of floating rate securities. |
| 100 | Nuveen Investments |
| ■ | Zero Coupon Bond: A zero coupon bond does not pay a regular interest coupon to its holders during the life of the bond. Tax-exempt income to the holder of the bond comes from accretion of the difference between the original purchase price of the bond at issuance and the par value of the bond at maturity and is effectively paid at maturity. The market prices of zero coupon bonds generally are more volatile than the market prices of bonds that pay interest periodically. |

The registrant's Board of Directors or Trustees (“Board”) determined that the registrant has at least one “audit committee financial expert” (as defined in Item 3 of Form N-CSR) serving on its Audit Committee. The registrant's audit committee financial expert is Carole E. Stone, who is “independent” for purposes of Item 3 of Form N-CSR.
Ms. Stone served for five years as Director of the New York State Division of the Budget.

ITEM 4. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTANT FEES AND SERVICES.
Nuveen Ohio Dividend Advantage Municipal Fund
The following tables show the amount of fees that Ernst & Young LLP, the Fund's auditor, billed to the Fund during the Fund's last two full fiscal years. For engagements with Ernst & Young LLP the Audit Committee approved in advance all audit services and non-audit services that Ernst & Young LLP provided to the Fund, except for those non-audit services that were subject to the pre-approval exception under Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X (the “pre-approval exception”). The pre-approval exception for services provided directly to the Fund waives the pre-approval requirement for services other than audit, review or attest services if: (A) the aggregate amount of all such services provided constitutes no more than 5% of the total amount of revenues paid by the Fund to its accountant during the fiscal year in which the services are provided; (B) the Fund did not recognize the services as non-audit services at the time of the engagement; and (C) the services are promptly brought to the Audit Committee's attention, and the Committee (or its delegate) approves the services before the audit is completed.
The Audit Committee has delegated certain pre-approval responsibilities to its Chairman (or, in his absence, any other member of the Audit Committee).

SERVICES THAT THE FUND'S AUDITOR BILLED TO THE ADVISER AND AFFILIATED FUND SERVICE PROVIDERS
The following tables show the amount of fees billed by Ernst & Young LLP to Nuveen Fund Advisors, LLC (formerly Nuveen Fund Advisors, Inc.) (the “Adviser” or “NFA”), and any entity controlling, controlled by or under common control with the Adviser that provides ongoing services to the Fund (“Affiliated Fund Service Provider”), for engagements directly related to the Fund's operations and financial reporting, during the Fund's last two full fiscal years.
The tables also show the percentage of fees subject to the pre-approval exception. The pre-approval exception for services provided to the Adviser and any Affiliated Fund Service Provider (other than audit, review or attest services) waives the pre-approval requirement if: (A) the aggregate amount of all such services provided constitutes no more than 5% of the total amount of revenues paid to Ernst & Young LLP by the Fund, the Adviser and Affiliated Fund Service Providers during the fiscal year in which the services are provided that would have to be pre-approved by the Audit Committee; (B) the Fund did not recognize the services as non-audit services at the time of the engagement; and (C) the services are promptly brought to the Audit Committee's attention, and the Committee (or its delegate) approves the services before the Fund's audit is completed.

NON-AUDIT SERVICES
The following table shows the amount of fees that Ernst & Young LLP billed during the Fund's last two full fiscal years for non-audit services. The Audit Committee is required to pre-approve non-audit services that Ernst & Young LLP provides to the Adviser and any Affiliated Fund Services Provider, if the engagement related directly to the Fund's operations and financial reporting (except for those subject to the pre-approval exception described above). The Audit Committee requested and received information from Ernst & Young LLP about any non-audit services that Ernst & Young LLP rendered during the Fund's last fiscal year to the Adviser and any Affiliated Fund Service Provider. The Committee considered this information in evaluating Ernst & Young LLP's independence.

ITEM 8. PORTFOLIO MANAGERS OF CLOSED-END MANAGEMENT INVESTMENT COMPANIES.
Nuveen Fund Advisors, LLC, formerly known as Nuveen Fund Advisors, Inc., is the registrant’s investment adviser (also referred to as the “Adviser”). The Adviser is responsible for the selection and on-going monitoring of the Fund’s investment portfolio, managing the Fund’s business affairs and providing certain clerical, bookkeeping and administrative services. The Adviser has engaged Nuveen Asset Management, LLC (“Nuveen Asset Management” or “Sub-Adviser”) as Sub-Adviser to provide discretionary investment advisory services. The following section provides information on the portfolio manager at the Sub-Adviser:
The Portfolio Manager
The following individual has primary responsibility for the day-to-day implementation of the registrant’s investment strategies:
| Name | Fund |
| Daniel J. Close | Nuveen Ohio Dividend Advantage Municipal Fund |
Other Accounts Managed. In addition to managing the registrant, the portfolio manager is also primarily responsible for the day-to-day portfolio management of the following accounts:
| Portfolio Manager | Type of Account Managed | Number of Accounts | Assets* |
| Daniel J. Close | Registered Investment Company | 19 | $5.163 billion |
| Other Pooled Investment Vehicles | 0 | $0 | |
| Other Accounts | 11 | $147.7 million |
| * | Assets are as of February 28, 2013. None of the assets in these accounts are subject to an advisory fee based on performance. |
POTENTIAL MATERIAL CONFLICTS OF INTEREST
Actual or apparent conflicts of interest may arise when a portfolio manager has day-to-day management responsibilities with respect to more than one account. More specifically, portfolio managers who manage multiple accounts are presented a number of potential conflicts, including, among others, those discussed below.
The management of multiple accounts may result in a portfolio manager devoting unequal time and attention to the management of each account. Nuveen Asset Management seeks to manage such competing interests for the time and attention of portfolio managers by having portfolio managers focus on a particular investment discipline. Most accounts managed by a portfolio manager in a particular investment strategy are managed using the same investment models.
If a portfolio manager identifies a limited investment opportunity which may be suitable for more than one account, an account may not be able to take full advantage of that opportunity due to an allocation of filled purchase or sale orders across all eligible accounts. To deal with these situations, Nuveen Asset Management has adopted procedures for allocating limited opportunities across multiple accounts.
With respect to many of its clients’ accounts, Nuveen Asset Management determines which broker to use to execute transaction orders, consistent with its duty to seek best execution of the transaction. However, with respect to certain other accounts, Nuveen Asset Management may be limited by the client with respect to the selection of brokers or may be instructed to direct trades through a particular broker. In these cases, Nuveen Asset Management may place separate, non-simultaneous, transactions for a Fund and other accounts which may temporarily affect the market price of the security or the execution of the transaction, or both, to the detriment of the Fund or the other accounts.
Some clients are subject to different regulations. As a consequence of this difference in regulatory requirements, some clients may not be permitted to engage in all the investment techniques or transactions or to engage in these transactions to the same extent as the other accounts managed by the portfolio manager. Finally, the appearance of a conflict of interest may arise where Nuveen Asset Management has an incentive, such as a performance-based management fee, which relates to the management of some accounts, with respect to which a portfolio manager has day-to-day management responsibilities.
Nuveen Asset Management has adopted certain compliance procedures which are designed to address these types of conflicts common among investment managers. However, there is no guarantee that such procedures will detect each and every situation in which a conflict arises.
| Item 8(a)(3). | FUND MANAGER COMPENSATION |
Portfolio manager compensation consists primarily of base pay, an annual cash bonus and long term incentive payments.
Base pay. Base pay is determined based upon an analysis of the portfolio manager’s general performance, experience, and market levels of base pay for such position.
Annual cash bonus. The Fund’s portfolio managers are eligible for an annual cash bonus based on investment performance, qualitative evaluation and financial performance of Nuveen Asset Management.
A portion of each portfolio manager’s annual cash bonus is based on the Fund’s investment performance, generally measured over the past one- and three or five-year periods unless the portfolio manager’s tenure is shorter. Investment performance for the Fund generally is determined by evaluating the Fund’s performance relative to its benchmark(s) and/or Lipper industry peer group.
A portion of the cash bonus is based on a qualitative evaluation made by each portfolio manager’s supervisor taking into consideration a number of factors, including the portfolio manager’s team collaboration, expense management, support of personnel responsible for asset growth, and his or her compliance with Nuveen Asset Management’s policies and procedures.
The final factor influencing a portfolio manager’s cash bonus is the financial performance of Nuveen Asset Management based on its operating earnings.
Long-term incentive compensation. Certain key employees of Nuveen Investments and its affiliates, including certain portfolio managers, have received equity interests in the parent company of Nuveen Investments. In addition, certain key employees of Nuveen Asset Management, including certain portfolio managers, have received profits interests in Nuveen Asset Management which entitle their holders to participate in the firm’s growth over time.
There are generally no differences between the methods used to determine compensation with respect to the Fund and the Other Accounts shown in the table above.
Beneficial Ownership of Securities. As of February 28, 2013 the portfolio manager beneficially owned the following dollar range of equity securities issued by the Registrant and other Nuveen Funds managed by Nuveen Asset Management’s municipal investment team.
| Name of Portfolio Manager | Fund | Dollar range of equity securities beneficially owned in Fund | Dollar range of equity securities beneficially owned in the remainder of Nuveen funds managed by Nuveen Asset Management’s municipal investment team |
| Daniel J. Close | Nuveen Ohio Dividend Advantage Municipal Fund | $0 | $0 |
