Chairman’s Letter

to Shareholders

LOGO

Dear Shareholders,

For better or for worse, the financial markets spent most of the past year waiting for the U.S. Federal Reserve (Fed) to end its accommodative monetary policy. The policy has propped up stock and bond markets since the Great Recession, but the question remains: how will markets behave without its influence? This uncertainty was a considerable source of volatility for stock and bond prices for much of 2015, despite the Fed carefully conveying its intention to raise rates slowly and only when the economy shows evidence of readiness.

As was widely expected, the long-awaited Fed rate hike materialized in mid-December. While the move was interpreted as a vote of confidence on the U.S. economy’s underlying strength, the Fed emphasized that future rate increases will be gradual and guided by its ongoing assessment of financial conditions. Headwinds including rising borrowing costs, softer commodity prices, low inflation, a strong U.S. dollar and a stagnant global economy could necessitate keeping monetary conditions accommodative for longer. Meanwhile, policy makers in Europe and Japan are deploying their available tools to try to bolster their economies’ fragile growth, while Chinese authorities have stepped up efforts to manage China’s slowdown.

Although the new year began with a more pessimistic tone to investor sentiment and elevated volatility in the markets, we caution investors from making long-term decisions based on short-term news. In times like these, you can look to a professional investment manager with the experience and discipline to maintain the proper perspective on short-term events. And if the daily headlines do concern you, I encourage you to reach out to your financial advisor. Your financial advisor can help you evaluate your investment strategies in light of current events, your time horizon and risk tolerance.

On behalf of the other members of the Nuveen Fund Board, we look forward to continuing to earn your trust in the months and years ahead.

Sincerely,

William J. Schneider

Chairman of the Board

Nuveen S&P 500 Buy-Write Income Fund (BXMX)

Nuveen Dow 30^SM Dynamic Overwrite Fund (DIAX)

Nuveen S&P 500 Dynamic Overwrite Fund (SPXX)

Nuveen Nasdaq 100 Dynamic Overwrite Fund (QQQX)

The Nuveen S&P 500 Buy-Write Income Fund (BXMX) features portfolio management by Gateway Investment Advisers, LLC (Gateway). Kenneth H. Toft and Michael T. Buckius are co-portfolio managers. Effective February 29, 2016 (subsequent to the close of this reporting period) Daniel M. Ashcraft was added as a portfolio manager for BXMX. Nuveen Dow 30^SM Dynamic Overwrite Fund (DIAX), Nuveen S&P 500 Dynamic Overwrite Fund (SPXX) and Nuveen Nasdaq 100 Dynamic Overwrite Fund (QQQX) feature portfolio management by Nuveen Asset Management, LLC (NAM), an affiliate of Nuveen Investments, Inc. Keith Hembre, CFA, and David Friar serve as co-portfolio managers.

Here the portfolio managers discuss economic and market conditions, their management strategies and the performance of the Funds for the twelve-month reporting period ended December 31, 2015.

What factors affected the U.S. economy and financial markets during the twelve-month reporting period ended December 31, 2015?

The U.S. economy grew at an overall moderate pace during the twelve-month reporting period. Harsh winter weather and a west coast port strike weighed on growth in the first quarter of 2015, but those factors proved temporary. Rebounding economic activity in the second quarter was followed by a mediocre advance in the latter half of the year. Real gross domestic product (GDP), which is the value of the goods and services produced by the nation’s economy less the value of the goods and services used up in production, adjusted for price changes, increased at an annual rate of 0.7% in the fourth quarter of 2015, as reported by the “advance” estimate of the Bureau of Economic Analysis, down from 2.0% in the third quarter.

The labor and housing markets were among the bright spots in the economy during the reporting period, as both showed steady improvement. As reported by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the unemployment rate fell to 5.0% in December from 5.7% in January 2015, and job gains averaged slightly above 200,000 per month for the past twelve months. The S&P/Case-Shiller U.S. National Home Price Index, which covers all nine U.S. census divisions, recorded a 5.1% annual gain in November 2015 (most recent data available at the time this report was prepared). The 10-City and 20-City Composites reported year-over-year increases of 5.3% and 5.8%, respectively.

With GDP growth averaging around 2% for the previous four quarters, the U.S. economic recovery continued to underwhelm. Consumers, whose purchases comprise the largest component of the U.S. economy, benefited from lower gasoline prices and an improving jobs market but didn’t necessarily spend more. Pessimism about the economy’s future and lackluster wage growth likely contributed to consumers’ somewhat muted spending. The sharp decline in energy prices and tepid wage growth kept inflation subdued during this reporting period. The Consumer Price Index CPI declined 0.1% in December on a seasonally adjusted basis, as reported by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. The core CPI (which excludes food and energy) increased 0.1% during the same period, below the Fed’s unofficial longer term inflation objective of 2.0%.

Portfolio Managers’ Comments (continued)

Business investment was also rather restrained. Corporate earnings growth slowed during 2015, reflecting an array of factors ranging from weakening demand amid sluggish U.S. and global growth to the impact of falling commodity prices and a strong U.S. dollar. Energy, materials and industrials companies were hit particularly hard by the downturn in natural resource prices, as well as the expectation of rising interest rates, which would make their debts more costly to service. With demand waning, companies, especially in the health care and technology sectors, looked to consolidations with rivals as a way to boost revenues. Merger and acquisition deals, both in the U.S. and globally, reached record levels in the calendar year 2015.

Although the current expansion continued to look subpar relative to past recoveries, the U.S. Federal Reserve (Fed) believed the economy was strong enough to begin the withdrawal of its stimulus policies. After winding down its bond buying program, known as quantitative easing, in October 2014, the Fed began telegraphing its intention to raise the target federal funds rate some time in 2015. The Fed had held the fed funds rate near zero since December 2008. However, the timing of its first rate hike was uncertain, particularly as the inflation rate stayed stubbornly low and signs of global economic weakness, notably from China, merited caution. After delaying the rate change at each prior meeting in 2015, the Fed announced in December 2015 that it would raise its main policy interest rate by 0.25%. The news had a relatively muted impact on the financial markets, as the move was widely expected.

Sluggish economic growth and significant downside risks created a challenging environment for investors in 2015. Recent equity volatility has attracted the most attention, but a wide range of markets participated in the correction. Bond yields declined, commodity prices dropped and currency markets fluctuated.

With this volatile backdrop, the S&P 500^® Index finished 2015 with a modest gain of 1.38%, the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) 0.27% and the NASDAQ 100 Index was 9.75%. Until mid-August implied volatility, as measured by the Chicago Board Options Exchange’s (CBOE) Volatility Index (VIX), was very similar to the conditions that had existed since mid-2012, with the VIX rarely above 20 and most often below 15. As concerns about China intensified and the S&P 500^® Index neared its low-point for the year on August 24^th, the VIX spiked and reached an intra-day high for the year of 53.29, its highest point since January 2009. From late August to year-end, the VIX spent nearly half of its trading sessions above 20 and never closed below 14.

What key strategies were used to manage the Funds during this twelve-month reporting period ended December 31, 2015?

BXMX

BXMX seeks attractive total return with less volatility than the S&P 500^® Index. During the reporting period ended December 31, 2015, BXMX invested in an equity portfolio which sought to track the price movements of the S&P 500^® Index and wrote (sold) listed index call options on approximately 100% of the notional value of its stock portfolio. The premium generated by the index call options is intended to supplement the dividend yield on the underlying stock portfolio to support the Fund’s distribution policy and to provide the potential for growth in value during rising markets and/or risk mitigation in the event of a market decline. The writing of call options on a broad equity index, while investing in a portfolio of equities, has the potential to enhance returns while exposing BXMX to less risk than unhedged equity investments. The portion of the Fund subject to the overwrite sacrifices some of its upside potential in exchange for the premium received for the written index call options. The downside is buffered by the amount of the cash flow premium received. In flat or declining markets, the option premium can enhance total return relative to the S&P 500^® Index. In rising markets, the options can hurt the Fund’s total return relative to the S&P 500^® Index.

DIAX

DIAX seeks attractive total return with less volatility than the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA). NAM varies the level of call option overwrite within a range of approximately 35% to 75%, with a long-run target of 55% overwrite. NAM uses


	6			Nuveen Investments

its proprietary view of the market’s return and volatility profile to dynamically adjust the overwrite percentage and other factors. Generally, if NAM expects the equity market to appreciate, the overwrite percentage will be reduced to offer more potential upside capture. Likewise, if NAM expects equity markets to be flat or to decline, the overwrite percentage may be increased, thus managing the Fund to potentially receive additional cash flow from higher sales of call options. This dynamic option overwrite approach offers potential for greater equity market upside capture than the full overwrite approach, while still offering a measure of downside protection. The Fund currently expects to carry out its principal investment strategy by emphasizing single name options on individual stocks in the DJIA. It also employs an expanded range of options including index options on the DJIA and other broad-based indexes and options on custom baskets of stocks in addition to exchange-traded funds (ETFs). The Fund also has the opportunity to utilize call spread strategies and sell put options on a portion of the underlying equity portfolio.

SPXX

SPXX seeks attractive total return with less volatility than the S&P 500^® Index. NAM varies the level of option overwrite within a range of approximately 35% to 75% overwrite, with a long-run target of 55% overwrite. NAM uses its proprietary view of the market’s return and volatility profile to dynamically adjust the overwrite percentage and other factors. Generally, if NAM expects the equity market to appreciate, the overwrite percentage will be reduced to offer more potential upside capture. Likewise, if NAM expects equity markets to be flat or to decline, the overwrite percentage may be increased, thus managing the Fund to potentially receive additional cash flow from higher sales of call options. This dynamic option overwrite approach offers potential for greater equity market upside capture than the full overwrite approach, while still offering a measure of downside protection. The Fund currently expects to emphasize index call options on the S&P 500^® Index and can also employ an expanded range of options including index options on other broad-based indexes and options on custom baskets of stocks in addition to exchange-traded funds (ETFs) and single name options. The Fund also has the opportunity to utilize call spread strategies and sell put options on a portion of the underlying equity portfolio.

QQQX

QQQX seeks attractive total return with less volatility than the NASDAQ-100 Index. NAM varies the level of call option overwrite within a range of approximately 35% to 75% overwrite, with a long-run target of 55% overwrite. NAM uses its proprietary view of the market’s return and volatility profile to dynamically adjust the overwrite percentage and other factors. Generally, if NAM expects the equity market to appreciate, the overwrite percentage will be reduced to offer more potential upside capture. Likewise, if NAM expects equity markets to be flat or to decline, the overwrite percentage may be increased, thus managing the Fund to potentially receive additional cash flow from higher sales of call options. This dynamic option overwrite approach offers potential for greater equity market upside capture than the full overwrite approach, while still offering a measure of downside protection. The Fund, in carrying out its principal options strategy, expects to primarily write index call options on the NASDAQ-100 Index and other broad-based indexes and can also write call options on a variety of other equity market indexes and options on custom baskets of stocks in addition to exchange-traded funds (ETFs) and single name options. The Fund also has the opportunity to utilize call spread strategies and sell put options on a portion of the underlying equity portfolio.

How did the Funds perform during this twelve-month reporting period ended December 31, 2015?

The tables in the Performance Overview and Holding Summaries section of this report provide total return for the one-year, five-year, ten-year and/or since inception periods ended December 31, 2015. Each Fund’s total returns at net asset value (NAV) are compared with the performance of its corresponding market index. For the twelve-month reporting period ended December 31, 2015, BXMX shares at NAV outperformed the S&P 500^® Index, while SPXX underperformed the S&P 500^® Index. DIAX performed in line the Dow Jones Industrial Average, while QQQX underperformed the NASDAQ 100 Index.

Portfolio Managers’ Comments (continued)

BXMX

BXMX follows a strategy which combines an investment in an underlying equity portfolio, which tracks the price movements of the S&P 500^® Index, with the sale of a mix of nearly at-the-money index call options. As the short call options advance to expiration, premium is earned. Premium earned during periods of market advance results in return for the strategy while premium earned during periods of market decline generally offsets at least a portion of the underlying equity portfolio’s loss.

The Fund’s return during the reporting period was attributable to the higher stock market volatility environment throughout much of 2015 which increased the Fund’s net call option premiums received. Unlike in prior years, volatility did not quickly contract after each spike. For example, after the intra-day volatility spike to 53.29 in late August, the VIX spent the entire month of September in a range between 20 and 30 and did not decline under 20 until early October. As a result, the selling of index call options contributed positively to the performance of the Fund for 2015.

On a quarterly basis, index call option premiums contributed positively to the Fund’s return in each of the first three quarters while detracting in the fourth. Similarly, the Fund outperformed its benchmark in the first three quarters and underperformed in the fourth. Underperformance in the fourth quarter was due mainly to October’s results when cash flow generated by the Fund’s strategy was insufficient to keep pace with the S&P 500^® Index’s strong advance of 8.44%.

DIAX

DIAX seeks to dampen the beta (a measure of price volatility) of the overall portfolio by selling call options on a portion of the Fund’s underlying equity portfolio. This overwrite strategy provides incremental cash flow to the Fund and allows the portion of the Fund’s assets that are not overwritten to participate in any equity market rally. Those portions of the Fund that are overwritten have capped upside potential. The downside is buffered by the amount of cash flow premium received. Therefore, in flat or declining markets, the option premiums can enhance total returns relative to the Index. In rising markets, however, the options can hinder the Fund’s total return relative to the Index.

During the first half of the reporting period, implied volatility, as measured by the VIX was muted and U.S. equities traded within a tight band. Market peaks tended to fall around option expiration dates, making it risky to deviate from benchmark strike levels. These factors, combined with low levels of volatility premiums in the market, made the first half of the reporting period a challenging one for relative outperformance. Given the market conditions and uncertainty surrounding a number of near-term macroeconomic events, our strategy during that time was to manage the Fund defensively. The overwrite levels were kept only modestly above the passive benchmark, averaging 61.5% versus 55.0% for the benchmark. Further, the strike level of the options written in DIAX was kept very close to the levels in the CBOE DJIA BuyWrite Index.

From January through the beginning of February 2015, implied volatility briefly spiked. During that time, the Fund had a higher overwrite percentage of 65% to 75%, which helped the Fund’s performance as the index declined. However, when volatility declined, the Fund still had a high overwrite level when the market began to rebound, which detracted from performance.

The second half of the reporting period began with U.S. equities experiencing their steepest declines since 2011 during the third quarter. In the beginning of August, the VIX was at 14 where it had been for the last several quarters. By the end of August, the VIX was near 40. As sellers of options, the premiums we receive are more valuable when volatility is increased. This helped performance as we were able to limit our downside as well as increase the premiums we were paid. As the fourth quarter began, U.S. equities rebounded nicely from their steep declines during the third quarter. Since we experienced a rising market, the Fund was not able to capture as much of the upside potential which detracted from the Fund’s performance.


	8			Nuveen Investments

We continued to reduce the Fund’s exposure to over-the counter (OTC) options. Because these off-exchange traded options have no secondary market, they become more illiquid during periods of higher volatility. We also reduced the number of custom baskets and single name options in the portfolio as we expect volatility to remain elevated heading into 2016.

The Fund is able to sell put options on up to 5% of its portfolio. We took advantage of this and the premium received contributed to the Fund’s performance. Also boosting performance were custom baskets of options.

SPXX

SPXX seeks to dampen the beta (a measure of price volatility) of the overall portfolio by selling call options on a portion of the Fund’s underlying equity portfolio. This overwrite strategy provides incremental cash flow to the Fund and allows the portion of the Fund’s assets that are not overwritten to participate in any equity market rally. Those portions of the Fund that are overwritten have capped upside potential. The downside is buffered by the amount of cash flow premium received. Therefore, in flat or declining markets, the option premiums can enhance total returns relative to the Index.

DISTRIBUTION INFORMATION

The following information regarding each Fund’s distributions is current as of December 31, 2015, the Funds’ fiscal and tax year end, and may differ from previously issued notifications. Each Fund’s distribution level may vary over time based on the Fund’s investment activities and portfolio investment value changes.

Each Fund has adopted a managed distribution program. The goal of a Fund’s managed distribution program is to provide shareholders relatively consistent and predictable cash flow by systematically converting its expected long-term return potential into regular distributions. As a result, regular distributions throughout the year will likely include a portion of expected long-term and/or short-term gains (both realized and unrealized), along with net investment income.

Important points to understand about Nuveen fund managed distributions are:

•

Each Fund seeks to establish a relatively stable common share distribution rate that roughly corresponds to the projected total return from its investment strategy over an extended period of time. However, you should not draw any conclusions about a Fund’s past or future investment performance from its current distribution rate.

•

Actual share returns will differ from projected long-term returns (and therefore a Fund’s distribution rate), at least over shorter time periods. Over a specific timeframe, the difference between actual returns and total distributions will be reflected in an increasing (returns exceed distributions) or a decreasing (distributions exceed returns) Fund net asset value.

•

Each period’s distributions are expected to be paid from some or all of the following sources:

•

net investment income consisting of regular interest and dividends,

•

net realized gains from portfolio investments, and

•

unrealized gains, or, in certain cases, a return of principal (non-taxable distributions).

•

A non-taxable distribution is a payment of a portion of a Fund’s capital. When a Fund’s returns exceed distributions, it may represent portfolio gains generated, but not realized as a taxable capital gain. In periods when the Fund’s returns fall short of distributions, it will represent a portion of your original principal unless the shortfall is offset during other time periods over the life of your investment (previous or subsequent) when the Fund’s total return exceeds distributions.

•

Because distribution source estimates are updated throughout the current fiscal year based on a Fund’s performance, these estimates may differ from both the tax information reported to you in each Fund’s 1099 statement, as well as the ultimate economic sources of distributions over the life of your investment.

The following table provides information regarding each Fund’s distributions and total return performance over various time periods. This information is intended to help you better understand whether each Fund’s returns for the specified time periods were sufficient to meet their distributions.

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.

Nuveen S&P 500 Buy-Write Income Fund (BXMX)

Investing in closed-end funds involves risk; principal loss is possible. There is no guarantee the Fund’s investment objectives will be achieved. Closed-end fund shares may frequently trade at a discount or premium to their net asset value. Common stock returns often have experienced significant volatility. The Fund may not participate in any appreciation of its equity portfolio as fully as it would if the Fund did not sell call options. In addition, the Fund will continue to bear the risk of declines in the value of the equity portfolio. Because index options are settled in cash, sellers of index call options, such as the Fund, cannot provide in advance for their potential settlement obligations by acquiring and holding the underlying securities. For these and other risks, including tax risk, please see the Fund’s web page at www.nuveen.com/BXMX.

Nuveen Nasdaq 100 Dynamic Overwrite Fund:

In our opinion, the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the portfolios of investments, and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Nuveen S&P 500 Buy-Write Income Fund, Nuveen Dow 30^SM Dynamic Overwrite Fund, Nuveen S&P 500 Dynamic Overwrite Fund, and Nuveen Nasdaq 100 Dynamic Overwrite Fund (hereinafter referred to as the “Funds”) at December 31, 2015, the results of each of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in each of their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as “financial statements”) are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at December 31, 2015 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

(a)	Per share Net Investment Income (Loss) is calculated using the average daily shares method.

(b)

Total Return Based on NAV is the combination of changes in NAV, reinvested dividend income at NAV and reinvested capital gains distributions at NAV, if any. The last dividend declared in the period, which is typically paid on the first business day of the following month, is assumed to be reinvested at the ending NAV. The actual reinvest price for the last dividend declared in the period may often be based on the Fund’s market price (and not its NAV), and therefore may be different from the price used in the calculation. Total returns are not annualized.

Total Return Based on Share Price is the combination of changes in the market price per share and the effect of reinvested dividend income and reinvested capital gains distributions, if any, at the average price paid per share at the time of reinvestment. The last dividend declared in the period, which is typically paid on the first business day of the following month, is assumed to be reinvested at the ending market price. The actual reinvestment for the last dividend declared in the period may take place over several days, and in some instances may not be based on the market price, so the actual reinvestment price may be different from the price used in the calculation. Total returns are not annualized.

	58			Nuveen Investments

the Fund’s equity portfolio, in seeking to enhance the portfolio’s risk-adjusted returns. The Fund also has the opportunity to utilize call spread strategies and sell put options on a portion of the underlying equity portfolio.

Significant Accounting Policies

Each Fund is an investment company and follows accounting and reporting guidance under Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 946 “Financial Services – Investment Companies.” The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Funds in the preparation of their financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).

Investment Transactions

Investment transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Realized gains and losses from 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 earmarked securities in their portfolios with a current value at least equal to the amount of the when-issued/delayed delivery purchase commitments.

As of the end of the reporting period, the Funds’ did not have any outstanding when-issued/delayed delivery purchase commitments.

Investment Income

Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, for foreign securities, when information is available. Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis.

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. If a refund is received for workout expenditures paid in a prior reporting period, such amounts will be recognized as “Legal fee refund” on the Statement of Operations.

Dividends and Distributions to Common Shareholders

Distributions to common shareholders 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.

Each Fund makes quarterly cash distributions to common shareholders of a stated dollar amount per share. Subject to approval and oversight by the Funds’ Board of Trustees (the “Board”), each Fund seeks to maintain a stable distribution level designed to deliver the long-term return potential of each Fund’s investment strategy through regular quarterly distributions (a “Managed Distribution Program”). Total distributions during a calendar year generally will be made from each Fund’s net investment income, net realized capital gains and net unrealized capital gains in the Fund’s portfolio, if any. The portion of distributions paid attributed to net unrealized gains, if any, is distributed from the Fund’s assets and is treated by shareholders as a nontaxable distribution (“return of capital”) for tax purposes. In the event that total distributions during a calendar year exceed a Fund’s total return on net asset value (“NAV”), the difference will reduce NAV per share. If a Fund’s total return on NAV exceeds total distributions during a calendar year, the excess will be reflected as an increase in NAV per share. The final determination of the source and character of all distributions paid by a Fund during the fiscal year is made after the end of the fiscal year and is reflected in the financial statements contained in the annual report as of December 31 each year.

The tax character of each Fund’s distributions for a fiscal year is dependent upon the amount and tax character of distributions received from securities held in the Fund’s portfolio. Distributions received from certain securities in which each Fund invests, most notably REIT securities, may be characterized for tax purposes as ordinary income, long-term capital gain and/or a return of capital. The issuer of a security reports the tax character of its distributions only once per year, generally during the first two months of the calendar year. The distribution is included in a Fund’s ordinary income until such time the Fund is notified by the issuer of the actual tax character. For the fiscal year just ended, dividend income, net realized gain (loss) and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) recognized on the Statement of Operations for each Fund reflects the amounts of ordinary income, capital gain, and/or return of capital as reported by the issuers of such securities.

Indemnifications

Under the Funds’ organizational documents, their officers and 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.

Netting Agreements

In the ordinary course of business, the Funds may enter into transactions subject to enforceable master repurchase agreements, International Swaps and Derivative Association, Inc. (“ISDA”) master agreements or other similar arrangements (“netting agreements”). Generally, the right to offset in netting


Nuveen Investments			59

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

agreements allows each Fund to offset certain securities and derivatives with to a specific counterparty as well as any collateral received or delivered to that counterparty based on the terms of the agreements. Generally, a Fund manages its cash collateral and securities collateral on a counterparty basis.

The Funds’ investments subject to netting agreements as of the end of the reporting period, if any, are further described in Note 3 – Portfolio Securities and Investments in Derivatives.

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 from operations during the reporting period. Actual results may differ from those estimates.

2. Investment Valuation and Fair Value Measurements

The fair valuation input levels as described below are for fair value measurement purposes.

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received 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).

Common stocks and other equity-type securities are valued at the last sales price on the securities exchange on which such securities are primarily traded and are generally classified as Level 1. Securities primarily traded on the NASDAQ are valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price and are generally classified as Level 1. However, securities traded on a securities exchange or NASDAQ for which there were no transactions on a given day or securities not listed on a securities exchange or NASDAQ are valued at the last quoted bid price and are generally classified as Level 2. Prices of certain American Depositary Receipts (“ADR”) held by the Funds that trade in the United States are valued based on the last traded price, official closing price, or the most recent bid price of the underlying non-U.S.-traded stock, adjusted as appropriate for the underlying-to-ADR conversion ratio and foreign exchange rate, and from time-to-time may also be adjusted further to take into account material events that may take place after the close of the local non-U.S. market but before the close of the NYSE, which may represent a transfer from a Level 1 to a Level 2 security.

Prices of fixed-income securities are provided by a pricing service approved by the Board. 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. These securities are generally classified as Level 2. 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.

Exchange-traded funds are valued at the last sales price on the securities exchange on which such securities are primarily traded and are generally classified as Level 1.

Index options are valued at the 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time (ET) close price of the NYSE. The values of exchange-traded options are based on the mean of the closing bid and ask prices. Index and exchange-traded options are generally classified as Level 1. Options traded in the over-the-counter market are valued using an evaluated mean price and are generally classified as Level 2.

Repurchase agreements are valued at contract amount plus accrued interest, which approximates market value. These securities are generally classified as Level 2.

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 Board and/or its appointee 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


	60			Nuveen Investments

security after the market has closed but before the calculation of a Fund’s NAV (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 such 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 Board and/or its appointee.

The inputs or methodologies used for valuing securities are not an indication of the risks 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:

The Board is responsible for the valuation process and has appointed 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, is responsible for making fair value determinations, evaluating the effectiveness of the Funds’ pricing policies and reporting to the Board. 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.

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

The Valuation Committee will consider pricing methodologies it deems relevant and appropriate when making a fair value determination, based on the facts and circumstances specific to the portfolio instrument. Fair value determinations generally will be derived as follows, using public or private market information:

(i)

If available, fair value determinations shall be derived by extrapolating from recent transactions or quoted prices for identical or comparable securities.

(ii)

If such information is not available, an analytical valuation methodology may be used based on other available information including, but not limited to: analyst appraisals, research reports, corporate action information, issuer financial statements and shelf registration statements. Such analytical valuation methodologies may include, but are not limited to: multiple of earnings, discount from market value 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 purchase price of a portfolio instrument will be used to fair value the instrument only if no other valuation methodology is available or deemed appropriate, and it is determined that the purchase price fairly reflects the instrument’s current value.

For each portfolio security that has been fair valued pursuant to the policies adopted by the Board, 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.

3. Portfolio Securities and Investments in Derivatives

Portfolio Securities

Foreign Currency Transactions

To the extent that the Funds invest in securities and/or contracts that are denominated in a currency other than U.S. dollars, the Funds will be subject to currency risk, which is the risk that an increase in the U.S. dollar relative to the foreign currency will reduce returns or portfolio value. Generally, when the U.S. dollar rises in value against a foreign currency, the Funds’ investments denominated in that currency will lose value because their currency is worth fewer U.S. dollars; the opposite effect occurs if the U.S. dollar falls in relative value. Investments and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are converted into U.S. dollars on a spot (i.e. cash) basis at the spot rate prevailing in the foreign currency exchange market at the time of valuation. Purchases and sales of investments and income denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars on the respective dates of such transactions.

The books and records of the Funds are maintained in U.S. dollars. Foreign currencies, assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at 4:00 p.m. ET. Investment transactions, income and expenses are translated on the respective dates of such transactions. Net realized foreign currency gains and losses resulting from changes in exchange rates include foreign currency gains and losses between trade date and settlement date of the transactions, foreign currency transactions, and the difference between the amounts of interest and dividends recorded on the books of the Funds and the amounts actually received.

The realized gains and losses resulting from changes in foreign currency exchange rates and changes in foreign exchange rates associated with (i) investments, (ii) investments in derivatives and (iii) other assets and liabilities are recognized as a component of “Net realized gain (loss) from investments and foreign currency,” on the Statement of Operations, when applicable.

The unrealized gains and losses resulting from changes in foreign currency exchange rates and changes in foreign exchange rates associated with (i) investments and (ii) other assets and liabilities are recognized as a component of “Change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of investments and foreign currency,” on the Statement of Operations, when applicable. The unrealized gains and losses resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates associated with investments in derivatives are recognized as a component of the respective derivative’s related “Change in net unrealized appreciation (depreciation)” on the Statement of Operations, when applicable.

Repurchase Agreements

In connection with transactions in repurchase agreements, it is each Fund’s policy that its custodian take possession of the underlying collateral securities, the fair value of which exceeds the principal amount of the repurchase transaction, including accrued interest, at all times. If the counterparty defaults, and the fair value of the collateral declines, realization of the collateral may be delayed or limited.

The following table presents the repurchase agreements for the Funds that are subject to netting agreements as of the end of the reporting period, and the collateral delivered related to those repurchase agreements.


Fund	Counterparty	Short-Term Investments, at Value		Collateral Pledged (From) Counterparty*			Net Exposure
S&P 500 Buy-Write Income (BXMX)	Fixed Income Clearing Corporation	$	37,439,038	$	(37,439,038	)	$	—

*	As of the end of the reporting period, the value of the collateral pledged from the counterparty exceeded the value of the repurchase agreements. Refer to the Fund’s Portfolio of Investments for details on the repurchase agreements.

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.

Investments in Derivatives

Each Fund is authorized to invest in certain derivative instruments, such as futures, options and swap contracts. Each Fund limits its investments in futures, options on futures and swap contracts to the extent necessary for the Adviser to claim the exclusion from regulation by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission as a commodity pool operator with respect to the Fund. 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.

Options Transactions

The purchase of options involves the risk of loss of all or a part of the cash paid for the options (the premium). The market risk associated with purchasing options is limited to the premium paid. The counterparty credit risk of purchasing options, however, needs to take into account the current value of the option, as this is the performance expected from the counterparty. When a Fund purchases an option, an amount equal to the premium paid (the premium plus commission) is recognized as a component of “Options purchased, at value” on the Statement of Asset and Liabilities. When a Fund writes an option, an amount equal to the net premium received (the premium less commission) is recognized as a component of “Options written, at value” on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities and is subsequently adjusted to reflect the current value of the written option until the option is exercised or expires or the Fund enters into a closing purchase transaction. The changes in the value of options purchased during the fiscal period are recognized as a component of “Change in net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of options purchased” on the Statement of Operations. The changes in values of the options written during the fiscal period are recognized as a component of “Change in net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of options written” on the Statement of Operations. When an option is exercised or expires or a Fund enters into a closing purchase transaction, the difference between the net premium received, and any amount paid at expiration or on executing a closing purchase transaction, including commission, is recognized as a component of “Net realized gain (loss) from options purchased and/or written” on the Statement of Operations. The Fund, as writer of an option, has no control over whether the underlying instrument may be sold (called) or purchased (put) and as a result bears the risk of an unfavorable change in the market value of the instrument underlying the written option. There is also the risk the Fund may not be able to enter into a closing transaction because of an illiquid market.

During the current fiscal period, S&P 500 Buy-Write Income (BXMX) sold call options on equity indices as part of its overall investment strategy. The notional amount of these options averaged 99% of the Fund’s assets.

During the current fiscal period, S&P 500 Dynamic Overwrite (SPXX), DOW 30sm (DIAX), and Nasdaq 100 Dynamic Overwrite (QQQX) each sold call options on equity indices as part of its overall investment strategy. The notional amounts of these options averaged 60% of each Fund’s assets. Each Fund also purchased a small amount of call options as part of its overwrite strategy and sold put options on up to 5% of its portfolio.

The average notional amount of outstanding options contracts purchased and options contracts written during the current fiscal period, was as follows:

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.

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


	64			Nuveen Investments

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.

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

6. Income Tax Information

Each Fund is a separate taxpayer for federal income tax purposes. Each Fund intends to distribute substantially all of its net investment company taxable income to shareholders and to otherwise comply with the requirements of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies. In any year when the Funds realize net capital gains, each Fund may choose to distribute all or a portion of its net capital gains to shareholders, or alternatively, to retain all or a portion of its net capital gains and pay federal corporate income taxes on such retained gains.

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.

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 recording income, timing differences in recognizing certain gains and losses on investment transactions and the recognition of unrealized gain or loss for tax (mark-to-market) on options contracts. 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 NAVs of the Funds.

As of December 31, 2015, the cost and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of investments (excluding investments in derivatives), as determined on a federal income tax basis, were as follows:


	S&P 500 Buy-Write Income (BXMX)			Dow 30^SM Dynamic Overwrite (DIAX)			S&P 500 Dynamic Overwrite (SPXX)			Nasdaq 100 Dynamic Overwrite (QQQX)
Cost of investments	$	879,797,790		$	394,749,094		$	154,722,058		$	350,079,854
Gross unrealized:
Appreciation	$	562,562,873		$	185,984,563		$	95,055,955		$	388,788,194
Depreciation		(44,444,477	)		(6,531,922	)		(10,194,813	)		(2,563,257	)
Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of investments	$	518,118,396		$	179,452,641		$	84,861,142		$	386,224,937

Permanent differences, primarily due to foreign currency transactions, federal taxes paid, investments in passive foreign investment companies, nondeductible reorganization expenses, real estate investment trust adjustments, deemed dividend due to corporate actions and tax basis earnings and profits adjustments, resulted in reclassifications among the Funds’ components of net assets as of December 31, 2015, the Funds’ tax year end, as follows:


	S&P 500 Buy-Write Income (BXMX)			Dow 30^SM Dynamic Overwrite (DIAX)			S&P 500 Dynamic Overwrite (SPXX)			Nasdaq 100 Dynamic Overwrite (QQQX)

7. Management Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates

The management fee compensates the Adviser for overall investment advisory and administrative services and general office facilities. Gateway and NAM are compensated for their services to the Funds from the management fees paid to the Adviser.

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 the Fund’s shareholders to benefit from growth in the assets within their respective Funds as well as from growth in the amount of complex-wide assets managed by the Adviser.


Nuveen Investments			67

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

The annual Fund-level fee, payable monthly, for each Fund is calculated according to the following schedule:


Average Daily Managed Assets*	S&P 500 Buy-Write Income (BXMX)			DOW 30^SM Dynamic Overwrite (DIAX)			S&P 500 Dynamic Overwrite (SPXX)			Nasdaq 100 Dynamic Overwrite (QQQX)

For managed assets over $2 billion		0.6000			0.6000			0.5600			0.5900

The annual complex-level fee, payable monthly, for each Fund is calculated according to the following schedule:


Complex-Level Managed Asset Breakpoint Level*	Effective Rate at Breakpoint Level
$55 billion		0.2000	%
$56 billion		0.1996
$57 billion		0.1989

$200 billion		0.1505
$250 billion		0.1469
$300 billion		0.1445

For the fund-level and complex-level fees, managed assets include closed-end fund assets managed by the Adviser that are attributable to certain types of leverage. For these purposes, 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 and 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 December 31, 2015, the complex-level fee rate for each of these Funds was 0.1639%.

The Funds pay no compensation directly to those of its 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 has adopted a deferred compensation plan for independent trustees that enables 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.

Glossary of Terms

Used in this Report (Unaudited)

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.

Beta: A measure of the variability of the change in the share price for a Fund in relation to a change in the value of the Fund’s market benchmark. Securities with betas higher than 1.0 have been, and are expected to be, more volatile than the benchmark; securities with betas lower than 1 .0 have been, and are expected to be, less volatile than the benchmark.

Chicago Board Options Exchange (CBOE) S&P 500 Buy-Write Index (BXM): An index designed to track the performance of a hypothetical buy-write strategy on the S&P 500^® Index. Index returns assume reinvestment of distributions, but do not include the effects of any applicable sales charges or management fees.

Chicago Board of Exchange (CBOE) Volatility Index^® (VIX^®): An Index that is a key measure of market expectations of near-term volatility conveyed by S&P 500^® stock index option prices. Since its introduction in 1993, VIX has been considered by many to be the world’s premier barometer of investor sentiment and market volatility (www.cboe.com). Index returns assume reinvestment of distributions, but do not include the effects of any applicable sales charges or management fees.

Chicago Board of Exchange (CBOE) Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) BuyWrite Index (BXD): A benchmark index that measures the performance of a theoretical portfolio that sells call options on the Dow Jones Industrial Average (the Dow), against a portfolio of the stocks included in the Dow. Index returns assume reinvestment of distributions, but do not include the effects of any applicable sales charges or management fees.

Chicago Board of Exchange (CBOE) Nasdaq 100 BuyWrite Index (BXN): A benchmark index that measures the performance of a theoretical portfolio that owns a basket of the stocks included in the Nasdaq 100 Index, and “writes” (or sells) Nasdaq 100 Index covered call options each month. Index returns assume reinvestment of distributions, but do not include the effects of any applicable sales charges or management fees.

Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA): An average that tracks the performance of 30 large cap companies. Index returns assume reinvestment of distributions, but do not reflect any applicable sales charges or management fees.

Effective Leverage: Effective leverage is a fund’s effective economic leverage, and includes both regulatory leverage (see below) and the leverage effects of certain derivative investments in the fund’s portfolio that increase the fund’s investment exposure.

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.

Leverage: Leverage is created whenever a fund has investment exposure (both reward and/or risk) equivalent to more than 100% of the investment capital.

NASDAQ-100 Index: An index that includes 100 of the largest domestic and international nonfinancial securities listed on The NASDAQ Stock Market based on market capitalization. Index returns assume reinvestment of distributions, but do not reflect any applicable sales charges or management fees.

Net Asset Value (NAV) Per Share: A fund’s Net Assets is equal to its total assets (securities, cash, accrued earnings and receivables) less its total liabilities. NAV per share is equal to the fund’s Net Assets divided by its number of shares outstanding.

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 subject to asset coverage limits set in the Investment Company Act of 1940.

S&P 500^® Index: An unmanaged index generally considered representative of the U.S. stock market. Index returns assume reinvestment of distributions, but do not reflect any applicable sales charges or management fees.

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 quarter 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 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.

ITEM 4. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTANT FEES AND SERVICES.

NUVEEN DOW 30^SM DYNAMIC OVERWRITE FUND

The following tables show the amount of fees that PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, the Fund’s auditor, billed to the Fund during the Fund’s last two full fiscal years. For engagements with PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP the Audit Committee approved in advance all audit services and non-audit services that PricewaterhouseCoopers 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 FUND


Fiscal Year Ended	Audit Fees Billed to Fund ¹			Audit-Related Fees Billed to Fund ²			Tax Fees Billed to Fund ³
December 31, 2015	$	32,714		$	7,265		$	5,360

¹ “Audit Fees” are the aggregate fees billed for professional services for the audit of the Fund’s annual financial statements and services provided in connection with statutory and regulatory filings or engagements.

² “Audit Related Fees” are the aggregate fees billed for assurance and related services reasonably related to the performance of the audit or review of financial statements that are not reported under “Audit Fees”. These fees include offerings related to the Fund’s common shares and leverage.

³ “Tax Fees” are the aggregate fees billed for professional services for tax advice, tax compliance, and tax planning. These fees include: all global withholding tax services; excise and state tax reviews; capital gain, tax equalization and taxable basis calculation performed by the principal accountant.

⁴ “All Other Fees” are the aggregate fees billed for products and services other than “Audit Fees”, “Audit-Related Fees” and “Tax Fees”. These fees represent all “Agreed-Upon Procedures” engagements pertaining to the Fund’s use of leverage.

⁵ Fee was restated because an additional charge of $1,500 was incorrectly categorized under “Audit Fees Billed to Fund” on the 2014 N-CSR report. The additional fee is now reported under the 2015 “Audit Related Fees Billed to Fund” as the invoice was paid during the 2015 Fiscal Year.

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 PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP to Nuveen Fund Advisors, LLC (formerly Nuveen Fund Advisors, Inc.) (the “Adviser”), 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 PricewaterhouseCoopers 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 PricewaterhouseCoopers 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 PricewaterhouseCoopers 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 PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP about any non-audit services that PricewaterhouseCoopers 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 PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP’s independence.


Fiscal Year Ended	Total Non-Audit Fees Billed to Fund		Total Non-Audit Fees billed to Adviser and Affiliated Fund Service Providers (engagements related directly to the operations and financial reporting of the Fund)		Total Non-Audit Fees billed to Adviser and Affiliated Fund Service Providers (all other engagements)
December 31 , 2015	$	5,360	$	0	$	0
December 31 , 2014	$	811	$	0	$	0

“Non-Audit Fees billed to Fund” for both fiscal year ends represent “Tax Fees” and “All Other Fees” billed to Fund in their respective amounts from the previous table.

Less than 50 percent of the hours expended on the principal accountant’s engagement to audit the registrant’s financial statements for the most recent fiscal year were attributed to work performed by persons other than the principal accountant’s full-time, permanent employees.

Audit Committee Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures. Generally, the Audit Committee must approve (i) all non-audit services to be performed for the Fund by the Fund’s independent accountants and (ii) all audit and non-audit services to be performed by the Fund’s independent accountants for the Affiliated Fund Service Providers with respect to operations and financial reporting of the Fund Regarding tax and research projects conducted by the independent accountants for the Fund and Affiliated Fund Service Providers (with respect to operations and financial reports of the Fund) such engagements will be (i) pre-approved by the Audit Committee if they are expected to be for amounts greater than $10,000; (ii) reported to the Audit Committee chairman for his verbal approval prior to engagement if they are expected to be for amounts under $10,000 but greater than $5,000; and (iii) reported to the Audit Committee at the next Audit Committee meeting if they are expected to be for an amount under $5,000.

Other Accounts-overlay strategies – The portfolio manager is responsible for the management of overlay strategies employed by this account that use derivative instruments either to obtain, offset or substitute for certain portfolio exposures beyond those provided by the account’s underlying portfolios.

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 pre-tax 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, participate in a Long-Term Performance Plan designed to provide compensation opportunities that links a portion of each participant’s compensation to Nuveen Investments’ financial and operational performance. 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.
