INVESTMENT ADVISER NAME CHANGE
Effective January 1, 2011, Nuveen Asset Management, the Funds’ investment adviser, changed its name to Nuveen Fund Advisors, Inc. (“Nuveen Fund Advisors”). Concurrently, Nuveen Fund Advisors formed a wholly-owned subsidiary, Nuveen Asset Management, LLC, to house its portfolio management capabilities.
NUVEEN INVESTMENTS COMPLETES STRATEGIC COMBINATION WITH FAF ADVISORS
On December 31, 2010, Nuveen Investments completed the strategic combination between Nuveen Asset Management, the largest investment affiliate of Nuveen Investments, and FAF Advisors. As part of this transaction, U.S. Bancorp — the parent of FAF Advisors — received cash consideration and a 9.5% stake in Nuveen Investments in exchange for the long-term investment business of FAF Advisors, including investment-management responsibilities for the non-money market mutual funds of the First American Funds family.
The approximately $27 billion of mutual fund and institutional assets managed by FAF Advisors, along with the investment professionals managing these assets and other key personnel, have become part of Nuveen Asset Management, LLC. With these additions to Nuveen Asset Management, LLC, this affiliate now manages more than $100 billion of assets across a broad range of strategies from municipal and taxable fixed income to traditional and specialized equity investments.
This combination does not affect the investment objectives or strategies of the Funds in this report. Over time, Nuveen Investments expects that the combination will provide even more ways to meet the needs of investors who work with financial advisors and consultants by enhancing the multi-boutique model of Nuveen Investments, which also includes highly respected investment teams at HydePark, NWQ Investment Management, Santa Barbara Asset Management, Symphony Asset Management, Tradewinds Global Investors and Winslow Capital. Nuveen Investments managed approximately $210 billion of assets as of June 30, 2011.

Letter to Shareholders
Dear Shareholders,
The global economy continues to be weighed down by an unusual combination of pressures facing the larger developed economies. Japanese leaders continue to work through the economic aftereffects of the March 2011 earthquake and tsunami. Political leaders in Europe and the U.S. have resolved some of the near term fiscal problems, but the financial markets are not convinced that these leaders are able to address more complex longer term fiscal issues. Despite improved earnings and capital increases, the largest banks in these countries continue to be vulnerable to deteriorating mortgage portfolios and sovereign credit exposure, adding another source of uncertainty to the global financial system.
In the U.S., recent economic statistics indicate that the economic recovery may be losing momentum. Consumption, which represents about 70% of the gross domestic product, faces an array of challenges from seemingly intractable declines in housing values, increased energy costs and limited growth in the job market. The failure of Congress and the administration to agree on the debt ceiling increase on a timely basis and the deep divisions between the political parties over fashioning a balanced program to address growing fiscal imbalances that led to the recent Standard & Poor’s ratings downgrade add considerable uncertainty to the domestic economic picture.
On a more positive note, corporate earnings continue to hold up well and the municipal bond market is recovering from recent weakness as states and municipalities implement various programs to reduce their budgetary deficits. In addition, the Federal Reserve System has made it clear that it stands ready to take additional steps should the economic recovery falter. However, there are concerns that the Fed is approaching the limits of its resources to intervene in the economy.
These perplexing times highlight the importance of professional investment management. Your Nuveen investment team is working hard to develop an appropriate response to increased risk, and they continue to seek out opportunities created by stressful markets using proven investment disciplines designed to help your Fund achieve its investment objectives. On your behalf, we monitor their activities to assure that they maintain their investment disciplines.
As always, I encourage you to contact 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
Chairman of the Board

Here the portfolio management teams for the Funds examine economic and bond market conditions, key investment strategies and the Funds’ performance for the twelve-month period ended June 30, 2011.
What factors affected the U.S. economic and fixed income market environments during the twelve-month reporting period ended June 30, 2011?
Global economic growth was quite uneven over the twelve-month reporting period. The second half of 2010 began with widespread concerns about financial contagion from several European countries and very slow growth, raising the probability of a double-dip recession in the United States. These fears seemed to be quelled in late 2010 and early 2011 as another round of quantitative easing was introduced by the Federal Reserve and consumer spending rebounded sharply. However, this relief was relatively short lived as renewed weakness in housing and higher food and energy prices put a damper on consumption at about the same time that supply chain disruptions from the Japanese tsunami and earthquake were distorting growth and suppressing job creation in the U.S. and many areas around the world.
Throughout the period, the Fed continued to hold the benchmark fed funds rate in a target range of zero to 0.25% since cutting it to this record low level in December 2008. At its June 2011 meeting, the central bank downgraded growth estimates for the year while reaffirming that it anticipated keeping the fed funds rate at “exceptionally low levels” for an “extended period.”
From a macro perspective, we ended the fiscal period facing many of the same uncertainties that we did one year earlier. The Greek bailout had yet to be finalized and fiscal concerns had spread to other European countries such as Ireland, Italy, Portugal and Spain. At the same time, fears about slowing U.S. economic growth bubbled to the surface again, causing consumer spending to pull back. The employment situation seemed to plateau, with the national jobless rate registering 9.2% in June 2011, the fourth monthly increase in a row and just slightly lower than one year earlier. Also, the overall housing market continued to flounder, weighed down by a backlog of distressed properties on the market and falling prices. For the twelve months ended May 2011 (the most recent data available at the time this report was prepared), property values in the Standard & Poor’s (S&P)/Case-Shiller index of 20 major metropolitan areas fell 4.5% from one year ago. U.S. gross domestic product (GDP), the broadest measure of the nation’s economic health, was revised downward to an anemic 0.4% annual growth rate for the first quarter of 2011 and estimated to be 1.3% for the second quarter, according to the Commerce Department.
The high level of uncertainty throughout the twelve-month period resulted in a schizophrenic investor appetite for risk. Volatility was high as the inability of Wall Street firms to buy assets for their own balance sheets contributed to swings in valuations. Virtually all non-government sectors of the market enjoyed strong performance from late
6 | Nuveen Investments |
2010 through the first quarter of 2011, as the liquidity provided by the Fed’s balance sheet expansion emboldened investor risk tolerance, causing a strong run in both equities and riskier fixed-income securities. This powerful positive technical rally came to an abrupt halt midway through the second quarter of 2011 as investors increasingly worried about a tightening of monetary policy in emerging markets, a Greek default, U.S. budget woes and a downshift in global growth. Despite second quarter’s give-back in relative performance, non-government bonds outperformed significantly overall for the reporting period, with sectors such as investment-grade corporate debt, high-yield corporate debt and commercial mortgage-backed securities (CMBS) beating U.S. Treasuries by considerable amounts.
The high-yield market, in particular, benefited from its high coupon levels in a low-interest rate market, leading to strong investor demand and record fund inflows into the asset class. Also, default rates continued to decrease as measured by Moody’s speculative-grade default rate, which finished the fiscal year at 2.2%, down from 6.4% a year ago. Across the high-yield sector, CCC-rated bonds were the best performers among the various quality tiers, returning 18.5% over the twelve-month period.
In the U.S. Treasury market, short and intermediate rates remained at historically low levels, falling even further during the fiscal year. For example, yields on one-year Treasury bills began the period at 0.32% and ended at 0.19%, while five-year Treasury notes went from 1.80% to 1.76%. Rates on longer term Treasury securities rose slightly over the year. For the majority of the period, U.S. Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities (TIPS) outpaced nominal Treasuries, particularly in the shorter maturity ranges, as stronger growth prospects, the rapid rise in energy prices and the expected flow-through of these prices to the consumer price index (CPI) fueled investors’ appetite for inflation protection. However, the TIPS market experienced somewhat of a reversal in performance in the second quarter of 2011 as inflation expectations lowered due to weaker-than-expected economic data, falling energy prices and an anticipated downturn in seasonal CPI reports.
How did the Funds perform during the twelve-month period ended June 30, 2011?
The tables in the Fund Performance and Expense Ratios section of this report provide total return performance information for the one-year, five-year, ten-year and since inception periods ending June 30, 2011. Each Fund’s returns are compared with the performance of the appropriate Barclays Capital bond index and Lipper peer fund category average.
What strategies were used to manage the Funds during the twelve-month reporting period? How did these strategies influence performance?
All of the Funds continued to employ the same fundamental investment strategies and tactics used in previous years, although our ability to implement those strategies depended on the individual characteristics of the portfolios, as well as market conditions. We use a highly collaborative, research-driven approach that we believe offers the best opportunity to achieve consistent, superior long-term performance on a risk-adjusted basis across the full range of market environments. Going into the reporting period, we were generally comfortable with the Funds’ positioning and saw little need to make large-scale shifts to the Funds’ weightings.

The Funds also invested in various derivative instruments to manage foreign currency exposure, duration and yield curve, to manage views of volatility, to hedge against changes in rate spreads and to increase credit exposure. (Refer to the Notes to Financial Statements, Footnote 1 – General Information and Significant Accounting Policies for further details on the derivative instruments each Fund invested during this reporting period.)
Nuveen Core Bond Fund (formerly known as First American Core Bond Fund)
The Fund’s Class A Shares at net asset value (NAV) outperformed both the Barclays Capital Aggregate Bond Index and the Lipper Intermediate Investment-Grade Debt Funds Category Average for the twelve-month period ended June 30, 2011. The majority of the Fund’s outperformance was driven by our sector positioning, specifically our overweights to investment-grade corporate bonds, CMBS and high-yield corporate bonds. We overweighted these sectors because of our view that the economy would recover to expand at a modest pace and that corporate credit fundamentals would continue to be extremely supportive of valuations within the sector. Furthermore, we anticipated that the Fed’s balance sheet expansion would be successful in moving cash off the sidelines and into riskier asset classes. Therefore, we increased the Fund’s overall risk level by adding exposure to both new-issue CMBS and high-yield corporates. These sectors were the strongest U.S. fixed-income performers during the reporting period.
We believed that positive bottom-up fundamentals and strong sector-specific technical factors would remain largely intact over the long run; however, as the last six months of the reporting period progressed, the combination of less attractive valuations and higher levels of macro uncertainty prompted us to reduce aggregate risk levels in the Fund. Specifically, we lowered the Fund’s exposure to investment-grade corporate bonds by about 9%, mostly by trimming exposure to the financial sector, which had enjoyed strong performance. As of June 30, 2011, the Fund’s investment-grade corporate credit exposure of approximately 30% was at its lowest level in several years. The proceeds of these sales were redeployed into the agency mortgage-backed securities sector as we felt that relative valuations were finally attractive enough to warrant a modest overweight. We also decreased the Fund’s overall risk within the CMBS sector by swapping into new-issue deals with stronger loan characteristics that came to market as the reporting period closed. At period end, the Fund’s CMBS weighting was approximately 13% of net assets.
Our duration policy, which focuses on the Fund’s sensitivity to interest rate changes, was close to neutral compared to the benchmark throughout most of the period. Therefore, it was not a major factor in the Fund’s performance.
Nuveen High Income Bond Fund (formerly known as First American High Income Bond Fund)
The Fund’s Class A Shares at net asset value (NAV) outperformed both the Barclays Capital High Yield 2% Issuer Capped Index and the Lipper High Current Yield Funds Category Average for the twelve-month period ended June 30, 2011. The Fund’s relative performance was aided by our tactical overweights to higher-yielding securities, generally single B and CCC rated debt, and from overweighting cyclical industries. For example, we overweighted the oilfield services, paper and media sectors, benefiting from the higher yields and improving fundamentals in these areas. Overall, the high-yield market continued to benefit from the ability of high-yield issuers to successfully refinance debt

and extend maturities. Indeed, defaults dropped significantly during the fiscal year, and the Fund experienced no new bankruptcies among its holdings. At the margin, the improvement in corporate liquidity benefited low-rated companies disproportionately more, which was a compelling reason for us to continue to overweight the single B and CCC rated segments in the Fund.
The Fund continued to maintain a roughly 10% allocation to emerging market corporate and sovereign debt. This was a small detractor to the Fund’s overall performance, as emerging market-related debt underperformed its domestic counterparts in the last three months of the reporting period. The reasons for the sector shortfall were both credit-specific, as in the case of Sino-Forest in Asia, and also reflected the growth uncertainty in the United States and the negative headlines surrounding Greece’s debt woes. While the Fund was not exposed to Sino-Forest and the accusations of faulty accounting, it did have other holdings in China that lost value in the resulting sell off of many Chinese securities. However, from a fundamental standpoint, we continued to anticipate strong fundamentals for emerging market corporates and plan to maintain or add to the Fund’s positions.
Also, the Fund’s below-market exposure to the technology and financial sectors was a slight detractor to results versus the index. Within the financial sector, many of the issuers were new entrants into the high-yield universe coming out of the financial crisis and did well as balance sheets were repaired in the banking and insurance sectors. While we were active in adding securities within the sector to the Fund, the powerful rally still left us and the majority of high-yield investors behind as it was difficult to gain exposure in a timely manner. In all, financials were among the top performers during the fiscal year, registering a 20.7% gain versus the broad high-yield market return of 15.5%, as measured by the Barclays Capital High Yield 2% Issuer Capped Index.
We added to the Fund’s holdings in energy, refining and oilfield services, which were some of the better-performing industries throughout the period. Specifically, the oilfield services sector continued to benefit from increased spending on exploration and production in North America and other areas of the world. Oil and natural gas companies are expected to spend $122 billion in the United States alone this year on exploration and production, a 22% increase from 2010. We also continued to overweight such areas as media, basic materials and industrials, all expected to benefit from a gradual acceleration in economic activity.
We used the more favorable environment for financials to add to select closed-end funds and preferred stocks. The Fund carried a roughly 10% allocation to out-of-index securities, consisting predominately of preferred stocks, various closed-end funds and dividend-paying stocks. Our allocation to preferred securities and equities increased marginally during the period, which was mainly a function of relative value opportunities versus traditional high-yield securities.
Fund flows into the high-yield asset class continued to be brisk until a quick reversal occurred in May and June 2011 when the markets began the process of analyzing the second mid-cycle slowdown in this reporting period. Market technical factors, however, still appear rather balanced despite the record amount of issuance. The pricing of $262 billion in high-yield bonds in 2010 and roughly $180 billion through the second quarter of 2011 has been met with strong investor demand. Nonetheless, as the more volatile financial market conditions spilled into the high-yield market, it experienced a bout of
Nuveen Investments | 9 |
outflows and selling pressure. However, we believed that the still-steep yield curve and the high base of current income left the high-yield sector positioned relatively well among competing asset classes.
Nuveen Inflation Protected Securities Fund (formerly known as First American Inflation Protected Securities Fund)
The Fund’s Class A Shares at net asset value (NAV) outperformed the Lipper U.S. Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities Category Average, but fell short of the Barclays Capital U.S. TIPS Index for the twelve-month period ended June 30, 2011. We began the Fund’s fiscal year with a modest underweight position in all TIPS segments, particularly 5-year maturities, which proved beneficial as TIPS underperformed. During the middle portion of the reporting period, improvements in economic data supported a more optimistic outlook for growth, which in turn increased investors’ appetite for inflation protection. The Fund’s continued underweight position in TIPS hindered performance as they outperformed nominal U.S. Treasuries. However, within the Fund’s TIPS exposure, we made an advantageous reallocation out of 10-year and longer maturity TIPS and overweighted 5-year maturities in the fourth quarter of 2010 and first quarter of 2011, which helped the Fund capture the relative outperformance of the 5-year securities on the TIPS yield curve. As the outlook for economic growth and inflation lowered toward the end of the reporting period, the Fund also benefited from a rotation out of 5-year maturities. This underweight at the front end of the TIPS yield curve aided results as the shortest maturities underperformed the most in the final months of the fiscal year.
The Fund’s performance also benefited from our allocations to non-TIPS spread sectors, which produced solid excess returns in the strong-performing environment for risk assets. For example, the Fund’s positions in the high-yield and CMBS sectors, which were 1.4% and 7.2% of Fund assets as of period end, respectively, contributed positively to performance. Foreign exposure also added to results with positions in non-dollar bonds and currency exposures performing well. The Fund particularly benefited from positions in growth-sensitive currencies such as the Canadian and Australian dollar.
At the end of the reporting period, the Fund was positioned for TIPS yields to move higher and for the continued relative outperformance of longer maturity TIPS over shorter maturity TIPS out to five years. Because we remained fundamentally constructive on high-yield corporate bonds and CMBS, we maintained the Fund’s positions in both sectors. We are also maintaining the Fund’s foreign exposure.
Our duration policy, which focuses on the Fund’s sensitivity to interest rate changes, was close to neutral compared to the benchmark throughout most of the period. Therefore, it was not a major factor in the Fund’s performance.
Nuveen Intermediate Government Bond Fund (formerly known as First American Intermediate Government Bond Fund)
The Fund’s Class A Shares at net asset value (NAV) outperformed both the Barclays Capital Intermediate Government Bond Index and the Lipper Intermediate U.S. Government Funds Category Average for the twelve-month period ended June 30, 2011. The majority of the Fund’s outperformance was driven by our sector positioning, specifically our overweights to CMBS, mortgage-backed securities (MBS) and agency debt. We emphasized these sectors because of our view that the economy would recover
10 | Nuveen Investments |
to expand at a modest pace and that non-U.S. Treasury fundamental and technical factors would continue to be extremely supportive of valuations. The Fund’s corresponding underweight to nominal U.S. Treasuries also was beneficial as the Treasury market underperformed other fixed-income asset classes over the year.
During the twelve-month period, we reduced the Fund’s U.S. Treasury exposure by about 17% because we believed we could find more compelling opportunities in other sectors. MBS, in particular, enjoyed continued strong underpinnings, given investors’ appetite for high-quality assets that offer incremental yield to Treasuries and low prepayment risk due to the constrained refinancing housing environment. At period end, the Fund’s MBS weighting had increased to approximately 39% of net assets. We also modestly increased our overall exposure to agency debt and asset-backed securities, ending the period with approximately 41% and 6% in these two sectors, respectively. Agency bonds offer incremental yield over U.S. Treasuries while asset-backed securities are high-quality securities that provide additional yield in the shorter maturity section of the yield curve.
Throughout the period, we made a number of tactical changes to the Fund’s duration (its price sensitivity to interest-rate movements), but overall did not stray far from a neutral position relative to the benchmark.
Nuveen Intermediate Term Bond Fund (formerly known as First American Intermediate Term Bond Fund)
The Fund’s Class A Shares at net asset value (NAV) outperformed both the Barclays Capital Intermediate Government/Credit Index and the Lipper Short-Intermediate Investment-Grade Debt Funds Category Average for the twelve-month period ended June 30, 2011. The Fund’s strong outperformance was mainly driven by our sector positioning, specifically overweights to CMBS, investment-grade corporate bonds and mortgage-backed securities. We emphasized these sectors because of our view that the economy would recover and expand at a modest pace and that corporate credit fundamentals would continue to be extremely supportive of valuations. Furthermore, we anticipated that the Fed’s balance sheet expansion would be successful in moving cash off the sidelines and into riskier asset classes.
We believed that positive bottom-up fundamentals and strong sector-specific technical factors would remain largely intact over the long run; however, as the final six months of the reporting period progressed, the combination of less attractive valuations and higher levels of macro uncertainty prompted us to reduce aggregate risk levels in the Fund. Specifically, we lowered the Fund’s exposure to corporate bonds by approximately 5% over the twelve-month period, mostly by trimming its exposure to the financial sector, which had enjoyed extremely strong performance. As of June 30, 2011, the Fund’s corporate credit exposure of approximately 46% was at its lowest level in several years. We increased the Fund’s exposure to CMBS during the fiscal year, ending with an approximately 11% weighting in the sector. Within that sector, however, we decreased the Fund’s overall risk by swapping into new-issue deals with stronger loan characteristics that came to market as the reporting period closed. The Fund’s allocations to the mortgage-backed securities and asset-backed securities sectors remained fairly unchanged, closing the fiscal year at approximately 16% and 15%, respectively. We continued to have only a small allocation to U.S. Treasuries (approximately 2% at the end of the period) because we saw more attractive opportunities in other asset classes.

Our duration policy, which focuses on the Fund’s sensitivity to interest rate changes, was close to neutral compared to its benchmark throughout most of the period. Therefore, it was not a major factor in the Fund’s performance.
Nuveen Short Term Bond Fund (formerly known as First American Short Term Bond Fund)
The Fund’s Class A Shares at net asset value (NAV) outperformed both the Barclays Capital 1-3 Year Government/Credit Bond Index and the Lipper Short Investment-Grade Debt Funds Category Average for the twelve-month period ended June 30, 2011. The Fund’s outperformance relative to its peers and benchmark was driven by our sector positioning and security selection. From a sector perspective, our main investment theme was to position the Fund with an underweight to government-related bonds and a large overweight to short duration securities in the asset-backed security and corporate bond sectors. From a macro perspective, our view has been that the global expansion would continue at a pace that was fundamentally supportive of continued improvement in credit fundamentals for corporate bonds and some segments of the structured assets market. As loan performance stabilized and corporate earnings improved, this certainly proved true. At the same time, we expected that liquidity would improve after the late 2010 balance sheet expansion by the Fed and that supply/demand dynamics would also be quite supportive. This strategy paid off as many investors expressed a preference for short duration, higher credit quality securities while issuance in certain sectors was historically light.
Security selection was also a strong positive for the Fund. Our bias toward owning issues from the financial sector, which performed well, was beneficial to the Fund as was our addition of short duration, non-agency mortgage assets. Additionally, the investment policy of the Fund was expanded in early 2011 to allow for greater flexibility with regard to credit quality, raising the maximum limit for non-investment grade securities from 10% to 20% of assets. We took advantage of this increased flexibility by selectively adding slightly less than 5% in non-rated holdings from the asset-backed securities and tax-exempt sectors. These sectors periodically offer interesting opportunities for investors who have ratings flexibility and strong research capabilities. We expect a “bottom up” approach focused on in-depth research to be an important performance driver in the investment environment going forward.
Elsewhere in the Fund, we tactically managed risk exposure in the CMBS and high-yield sectors as valuations changed and the fundamental backdrop shifted. We increased the Fund’s weighting to CMBS and high yield in late 2010, and subsequently brought its high-yield weighting way down in April 2011. Late in the period, we took advantage of the subsequent sharp repricing in the high-yield segment to add slightly to the Fund’s weighting.
On a negative note, we positioned the Fund’s duration (its price sensitivity to interest-rate movements), toward the lower end of the one- to three-year policy range. This positioning was a drag on performance against both our peers and the benchmark as rates dropped and prices rose amid the global macro uncertainty in the second quarter of 2011.
Nuveen Total Return Bond Fund (formerly known as First American Total Return Bond Fund)
The Fund’s Class A Shares at net asset value (NAV) outperformed both the Barclays Capital Aggregate Bond Index and the Lipper Intermediate Investment-Grade Debt Funds Category Average for the twelve-month period ended June 30, 2011. The largest
12 | Nuveen Investments |
contributors to the Fund’s outperformance were its sector overweights in investment-grade and high-yield corporates as well as positions in foreign bonds and currencies. The Fund particularly benefited from positions in growth-sensitive currencies such as the Canadian and Australian dollars. The Fund’s overweights to CMBS also added value, as did credit selection within the corporate sector, particularly our overweight to financial issuers. The Fund’s positioning during the year was driven by our view that the economy would recover to expand at a modest pace and that corporate credit fundamentals would continue to be extremely supportive of valuations within the sector. Financial conditions were further supported by the Fed’s ongoing commitment to provide an extraordinary level of monetary accommodation through low rates and asset purchases. Heading into the period, we judged that valuations for non-government bond market sectors provided ample compensation to long-term investors.
During the period, we took advantage of market strength and strong valuations to reduce exposure to some of the Fund’s overweights, even though we believed that positive bottom-up fundamentals and strong sector-specific technical factors would remain largely intact over the long run. As 2011 progressed, the combination of less attractive valuations and higher levels of macro uncertainty also prompted us to reduce the Fund’s aggregate risk level. We lowered the Fund’s exposure to investment-grade corporate bonds (including financials) by approximately 9%, cut its high-yield weight and moderated foreign currency exposure. Although we generally maintained these lower overall exposures, we did take advantage of the subsequent sharp repricing in the high-yield segment to add slightly to the Fund’s weighting at the end of the period. The bulk of the proceeds from these sales went into mortgage-backed securities as that sector cheapened, bringing the Fund’s weighting to approximately 29%, which is closer to the index weight. We also continued to underweight U.S. Treasuries and agencies in the portfolio.
Our duration positioning, which focuses on the Fund’s sensitivity to interest rate changes, was generally neutral to defensive during the period, detracting marginally from performance.
Risk Considerations
Mutual fund investing involves risk; principal loss is possible. Debt or fixed income securities are subject to credit risk and interest rate risk. The value of, and income generated by debt securities will decrease or increase based on changes in market interest rates. As interest rates rise, bond prices fall. Credit risk refers to an issuer’s ability to make interest and principal payments when due. The guarantee provided by the U.S. government to treasury inflation protected securities (TIPS) relates only to the prompt payment of principal and interest and does not remove the market risks of investing in the fund shares. Below investment grade securities carry heightened credit risk and potential for default. Foreign investments involve additional risks, including currency fluctuation, political and economic instability, lack of liquidity and differing legal and accounting standards. Asset-backed and mortgage-backed securities are subject to additional risks such as prepayment risk, liquidity risk, default risk and adverse economic developments. The potential use of derivative instruments involves a high degree of financial risk, including the risk that the loss on a derivative may be greater than the principal amount invested.

Fund Performance and Expense Ratios (Unaudited)
The Fund Performance and Expense Ratios for each Fund are shown on the following fourteen pages.
Returns quoted represent past performance, which not predictive of future results. Current performance may be higher or lower than the performance shown. Investment returns and principal value will fluctuate so that when shares are redeemed, they may be worth more or less than their original cost. Returns without sales charges would be lower if the sales charge were included. Returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or the redemption of Fund shares.
Returns may reflect a contractual agreement between certain Funds and the investment adviser to waive certain fees and expenses; see Notes to Financial Statements, Footnote 7 — Management Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates for more information. In addition, returns may reflect a voluntary expense limitation by the Funds’ investment adviser that may be modified or discontinued at any time without notice. For the most recent month-end performance visit www.nuveen.com or call (800) 257-8787.
Returns reflect differences in sales charges and expenses, which are primarily differences in distribution and service fees. Fund returns assume reinvestment of dividends and capital gains.
Comparative index and benchmark return information is provided for the Funds’ Class A Shares at net asset value (NAV) only.
Effective January 18, 2011, Class R Shares and Class Y Shares previously offered by FAF Advisors, Inc. were renamed Class R3 Shares and Class I Shares, respectively.
The expense ratios shown reflect the Funds’ total operating expenses (before fee waivers or expense reimbursements, if any) as shown in the Funds’ most recent prospectus. The expense ratios include management fees and other fees and expenses.

Yields (Unaudited) as of June 30, 2011
Dividend Yield is the most recent dividend per share (annualized) divided by the offering price per share.
The SEC 30-Day Yield is a standardized measure of a Fund’s yield that accounts for the future amortization of premiums or discounts of bonds held in the Fund’s portfolio. The SEC 30-Day Yield is computed under an SEC standardized formula and is based on the maximum offer price per share. Dividend Yield may differ from the SEC 30-Day Yield because the Fund may be paying out more or less than it is earning and it may not include the effect of amortization of bond premium.

(1) | The SEC Yield for Class A Shares quoted in the table reflects the maximum sales load. Investors paying a reduced load because of volume discounts, investors paying no load because they qualify for one of the several exclusions from the load, and existing shareholders who previously paid a load but would like to know the SEC Yield applicable to their shares on a going-forward basis, should understand that the SEC Yield effectively applicable to them would be higher than the figure quoted in the table. |

As a shareholder of one or more of the Funds, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including up-front and back-end sales charges (loads) or redemption fees, where applicable; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and service (12b-1) fees, where applicable; and other Fund expenses. The Examples below are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Funds and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. Since the expense examples for Class C Shares of Intermediate Term Bond reflect only the first 164 days of the Class’s operations they may not provide a meaningful understanding of the Class’s ongoing expenses.
The Examples below are based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the period.
The information under “Actual Performance,” together with the amount you invested, allows you to estimate actual expenses incurred over the reporting period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.60) and multiply the result by the cost shown for your share class, in the row entitled “Expenses Incurred During Period” to estimate the expenses incurred on your account during this period.
The information under “Hypothetical Performance,” provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the respective Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expense you incurred for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other Funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transaction costs. Therefore, the hypothetical information is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds or share classes. In addition, if these transaction costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the portfolios of investments, of Nuveen Core Bond Fund (formerly known as First American Core Bond Fund), Nuveen High Income Bond Fund (formerly known as First American High Income Bond Fund), Nuveen Inflation Protected Securities Fund (formerly known as First American Inflation Protected Securities Fund), Nuveen Intermediate Government Bond Fund (formerly known as First American Intermediate Government Bond Fund), Nuveen Intermediate Term Bond Fund (formerly known as First American Intermediate Term Bond Fund), Nuveen Short Term Bond Fund (formerly known as First American Short Term Bond Fund) and Nuveen Total Return Bond Fund (formerly known as First American Total Return Bond Fund), (the “Funds”) as of June 30, 2011, and the related statements of operations 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 June 30, 2011, 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 position of Nuveen Core Bond Fund (formerly known as First American Core Bond Fund), Nuveen High Income Bond Fund (formerly known as First American High Income Bond Fund), Nuveen Inflation Protected Securities Fund (formerly known as First American Inflation Protected Securities Fund), Nuveen Intermediate Government Bond Fund (formerly known as First American Intermediate Government Bond Fund), Nuveen Intermediate Term Bond Fund (formerly known as First American Intermediate Term Bond Fund), Nuveen Short Term Bond Fund (formerly known as First American Short Term Bond Fund) and Nuveen Total Return Bond Fund (formerly known as First American Total Return Bond Fund) at June 30, 2011, the results of their operations 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) | The Fund entered into the credit default swaps to gain investment exposure to the referenced index. If the Fund is a seller of protection and a credit event occurs, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement, the Fund will either (i) pay to the buyer of protection an amount equal to the notional amount of the swap and take deliver of the reference entity or underlying securities comprising the reference index or (ii) pay a net settlement amount in the form of cash or securities equal to the notional amount of the swap less the recovery value of the reference entity or underlying securities comprising the reference index. |
(2) | The maximum potential amount the Fund could be required to pay as a seller of credit protection or receive as a buyer of credit protection if a credit event occurs as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement. |
(3) | The credit spread generally serves as an indication of the current status of the payment/performance risk and therefore the likelihood of default of the credit derivative. The credit spread also reflects the cost of buying/selling protection and may include upfront payments required to be made to enter into a credit default swap contract. Higher credit spreads are indicative of a higher likelihood of performance by the seller of protection. |

(1) | The Fund entered into the credit default swaps to gain investment exposure to the referenced index. If the Fund is a seller of protection and a credit event occurs, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement, the Fund will either (i) pay to the buyer of protection an amount equal to the notional amount of the swap and take delivery of the reference entity or underlying securities comprising the reference index or (ii) pay a net settlement amount in the form of cash or securities equal to the notional amount of the swap less the recovery value of the reference entity or underlying securities comprising the reference index. |
(2) | The maximum potential amount the Fund could be required to pay as a seller of credit protection or receive as a buyer of credit protection if a credit event occurs as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement. |
(3) | The credit spread generally serves as an indication of the current status of the payment/performance risk and therefore the likelihood of default of the credit derivative. The credit spread also reflects the cost of buying/selling protection and may include upfront payments required to be made to enter into a credit default swap contract. Higher credit spreads are indicative of a higher likelihood of performance by the seller of protection. |

1. General Information and Significant Accounting Policies
General Information
On July 28, 2010, U.S. Bancorp, the indirect parent company of FAF Advisors, Inc. (“FAF Advisors”) known as U.S. Bancorp Asset Management, Inc. (“USBAM”) effective January 1, 2011, entered into an agreement to sell a portion of FAF Advisors’ asset management business to Nuveen Investments, Inc. (“Nuveen”). Included in the sale was the part of FAF Advisors’ asset management business that advises the funds included in this report. The sale closed on December 31, 2010 (the “Sale”).
In connection with the Sale, the funds’ Board of Directors was asked to consider and approve new investment advisory agreements for the funds with Nuveen Asset Management, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Nuveen. The new investment advisory agreements for each fund were submitted to the funds’ shareholders for approval and took effect on January 1, 2011. Effective January 1, 2011, the funds’ adviser, Nuveen Asset Management, changed its name to Nuveen Fund Advisors, Inc. (“Nuveen Fund Advisors” or the “Adviser”). Concurrently, the Adviser formed a wholly-owned subsidiary, Nuveen Asset Management, LLC (the “Sub-Adviser”), to house its portfolio management capabilities and to serve as the funds’ sub-adviser, and the funds’ portfolio managers became employees of the Sub-Adviser. This allocation of responsibilities between the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser affects each of the funds. The Adviser will compensate the Sub-Adviser for the portfolio management services it provides to the funds from each fund’s management fee.
There was no change in the funds’ investment objectives or policies as a result of the Sale. The Sale did result in a change to each fund’s name effective January 1, 2011.
The funds’ Board of Directors also approved new distribution agreements with Nuveen Investments, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Nuveen. Effective April 30, 2011, Nuveen Investments, LLC changed its name to Nuveen Securities, LLC.
First American Investment Funds, Inc. known as Nuveen Investment Funds, Inc. effective April 4, 2011 (the “Trust”), is an open-end investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The Trust is comprised of the Nuveen Core Bond Fund (“Core Bond”), formerly known as First American Core Bond Fund, Nuveen High Income Bond Fund (“High Income Bond”), formerly known as First American High Income Bond Fund, Nuveen Inflation Protected Securities Fund (“Inflation Protected Securities”), formerly known as First American Inflation Protected Securities Fund, Nuveen Intermediate Government Bond Fund (“Intermediate Government Bond”), formerly known as First American Intermediate Government Bond Fund, Nuveen Intermediate Term Bond Fund (“Intermediate Term Bond”), formerly known as First American Intermediate Term Bond Fund, Nuveen Short Term Bond Fund (“Short Term Bond”), formerly known as First American Short Term Bond Fund and Nuveen Total Return Bond Fund (“Total Return Bond”), formerly known as First American Total Return Bond Fund (each a “Fund” and collectively, the “Funds”), among others.
Core Bond’s investment objective is to provide high current income consistent with limited risk to capital. Under normal market conditions, the Fund invests primarily (at least 80% of its net assets, plus the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes) in debt securities such as U.S. government securities (securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government or its agencies or instrumentalities), including zero coupon securities, residential and commercial mortgage-backed securities, asset-backed securities and corporate debt obligations, including obligations issued by special-purpose entities that are backed by corporate debt obligations. Up to 10% of the Fund’s total assets may be invested collectively in debt securities rated lower than investment grade or unrated securities of comparable quality as determined by the Sub-Adviser (securities commonly referred to as “high yield” or “junk bonds”), non-dollar denominated debt obligations of foreign corporations and governments and debt obligations issued by governmental and corporate issuers that are located in emerging market countries. The Fund may invest up to 25% of its total assets in U.S. dollar denominated debt obligations of foreign corporations and governments that are not located in emerging market countries. To generate additional income, the Fund may invest up to 25% of its total assets in dollar roll transactions.
High Income Bond’s investment objective is to provide a high level of current income. Under normal market conditions, the Fund invests primarily (at least 80% of its net assets, plus the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes) in debt securities rated lower than investment grade at the time of purchase or in unrated securities of comparable quality (securities commonly referred to as “high-yield” securities of “junk bonds”). The Fund may invest in exchange-traded funds, closed-end funds, and other investment companies (“investment companies”). The Fund may invest up to 25% of its total assets in dollar denominated debt obligations of foreign corporations and governments. Up to 20% of the Fund’s total assets may be invested in dollar denominated debt obligations issued by governmental and corporate issuers that are located in emerging market countries.
Inflation Protected Securities Fund’s investment objective is to provide total return while providing protection against inflation. Under normal market conditions, the Fund invests primarily (at least 80% of its net assets, plus the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes) in inflation protected debt securities. These securities will be issued by the U.S. and non-U.S. governments, their agencies and instrumentalities, and domestic and foreign corporations. Up to 20% of the Fund’s assets may be invested in holdings that are not inflation protected. These holdings may include domestic and foreign corporate debt obligations, securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government or its agencies and instrumentalities, debt obligations of foreign governments, residential and commercial mortgage-backed securities and asset-backed securities. Up to 10% of the Fund’s net assets may be invested in securities that are rated lower than investment grade at the time of purchase or that are unrated and of comparable quality (securities commonly referred to as “high-yield” securities or “junk bonds”). The Fund may invest up to 20% of its net assets in non-dollar denominated securities, and may invest without limitation in U.S. dollar denominated securities of foreign corporations and governments.

Intermediate Government Bond’s investment objective is to provide current income to the extent consistent with the preservation of capital. Under normal market conditions, the Fund invests primarily (at least 80% of its net assets, plus the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes) in U.S. government securities. The Fund may invest up to 20% of its total assets, collectively, in non-U.S. government debt obligations, including asset-backed securities, residential and commercial mortgage-backed securities, corporate debt obligations, and municipal securities. To generate additional income, the Fund may invest up to 10% of its total assets in dollar roll transactions.
Intermediate Term Bond’s investment objective is to provide current income to the extent consistent with preservation of capital. Under normal market conditions, the Fund invests primarily (at least 80% of its net assets, plus the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes) in debt securities, such as U.S. government securities (securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government or its agencies or instrumentalities), including zero coupon securities, residential and commercial mortgage-backed securities, asset-backed securities, and corporate debt obligations, including obligations issued by special-purpose entities that are backed by corporate debt obligations. The Fund may invest up to 25% of its total assets in U.S. dollar denominated debt obligations of foreign corporations and governments. To generate additional income, the Fund may invest up to 25% of its total assets in dollar roll transactions.
Short Term Bond’s investment objective is to provide current income while maintaining a high degree of principal stability. Under normal market conditions, the Fund invests primarily (at least 80% of its net assets, plus the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes) in debt securities, such as residential and commercial mortgage-backed securities, asset-backed securities, corporate debt obligations, including obligations issued by special-purpose entities that are backed by corporate debt obligations, U.S. government securities, which are securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government or its agencies or instrumentalities and municipal securities. Up to 20% of the Fund’s total assets may be invested in securities that are rated lower than investment grade or unrated securities of comparable quality as determined by the Sub-Adviser (securities commonly referred to as “high yield” or “junk bonds”). The Fund may invest up to 25% of its total assets in U.S. dollar denominated debt obligations of foreign corporations and governments that are not located in emerging market countries.
Total Return Bond’s investment objective is to provide a high level of current income consistent with prudent risk to capital. While the Fund may realize some capital appreciation, the Fund primarily seeks to achieve total return through preserving capital and generating income. Under normal market conditions, the Fund invests primarily (at least 80% of its net assets, plus the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes) in debt securities such as U.S. government securities (securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government or its agencies or instrumentalities), residential and commercial mortgage-backed securities, asset-backed securities, domestic and foreign corporate debt obligations, including obligations issued by special-purpose entities that are backed by corporate debt obligations, and debt obligations of foreign governments. Up to 30% of the Fund’s total assets may be invested collectively in debt securities, provided that the Fund will not invest more than 20% of its total assets in any single category such as securities rated lower than investment grade or unrated securities of comparable quality as determined by the Sub-Adviser (securities commonly referred to as “high yield” or “junk bonds”), non-dollar denominated debt obligations of foreign corporations and governments and debt obligations issued by governmental and corporate issuers that are located in emerging market countries. To generate additional income, the Fund may invest up to 25% of its total assets in dollar roll transactions.
The Funds may invest in derivative financial instruments in an attempt to manage risk, manage the effective maturity or duration of securities in the Funds’ portfolios or for speculative purposes in an effort to increase the Funds’ yield or to enhance returns. The Funds that may invest in non-dollar denominated securities may also use derivatives to gain exposure to non-dollar denominated securities markets to the extent they do not do so through direct investments.
Each Fund’s most recent prospectus provides further descriptions of each Fund’s investment objective, principal investment strategies and principal risks.
Effective January 18, 2011, Class R Shares were renamed Class R3 Shares and Class Y Shares were renamed Class I Shares, and Intermediate Term Bond began offering Class C Shares. Class B Shares of Core Bond, High Income Bond and Total Return Bond are only available upon exchange of Class B Shares from another Nuveen mutual fund for which U.S. Bancorp Fund Services, LLC (“USBFS”) serves as transfer agent or for purposes of dividend reinvestment, but Class B Shares are not available for new accounts or for additional investment into existing accounts.
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 fixed-income securities, forward foreign currency exchange contracts and swap contracts are provided by a pricing service approved by the Funds’ Board of Directors. These securities are generally classified as Level 2 for fair value measurement purposes. When price quotes are not readily available, 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

Notes to Financial Statements (all dollars and shares are rounded to thousands (000)) (continued)
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.
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 for fair value measurement purposes. Securities primarily traded on the NASDAQ National Market (“NASDAQ”) are valued, except as indicated below, 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 quoted bid price. Investments in investment companies are valued at their respective net asset value on valuation date. These investment vehicles are generally classified as Level 1.
If significant market events occur between the time of determination of the closing price of a foreign security on an exchange and the time that the Funds’ net asset value (NAV) is determined, or if under the Funds’ procedures, the closing price of a foreign security is not deemed to be reliable, the security would be valued at fair value as determined in accordance with procedures established in good faith by the Funds’ Board of Directors. These securities are generally classified as Level 2 or Level 3.
The value of exchange-traded options are based on the mean of the closing bid and ask prices. Futures contracts are valued using the closing settlement price or, in the absence of such a price, the last traded price. Exchange-traded options and futures contracts 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.
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 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 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 Funds’ Board of Directors 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 segregate assets with a current value at least equal to the amount of the when-issued/delayed delivery purchase commitments. At June 30, 2011, Core Bond, Intermediate Government Bond and Total Return Bond had outstanding when issued/delayed delivery purchase commitments of $85,144, $4,362 and $100,077, respectively. There were no such outstanding purchase commitments in any of the other Funds.
Investment Income
Interest income, which reflects the amortization of premiums and includes accretion of discounts for financial reporting purposes, is recorded on an accrual basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, for foreign securities, when information is available. Interest income also reflects pay down gains and losses, if any.
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.
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 Shareholders
The Funds declare dividends from their net investment income daily and pay shareholders monthly. Fund shares begin to accrue dividends on the business day after the day when the monies used to purchase Fund shares are collected by the Funds’ transfer agent.
Net realized capital gains from investment transactions, if any, are declared and distributed to shareholders at least annually. Furthermore, capital gains are distributed only to the extent they exceed available capital loss carry forwards.
Distributions to 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.
Dollar Roll Transactions
A dollar roll (“dollar rolls”) is a transaction in which a Fund purchases or sells mortgage-backed securities (“MBS”) for delivery in the future and simultaneously contracts to sell or repurchase substantially similar (same type, coupon, and maturity) MBS on a different specified future date. Dollar rolls are identified in the Fund’s Portfolio of Investments as “MDR”, when applicable. During the roll period, the Fund foregoes principal and interest paid on the MBS. The Fund is compensated by fee income or the difference between the current sales price and the lower forward price for the future purchase. Such compensation is amortized over the life of the dollar rolls, which is recognized as a component of “Dividend and interest income from unaffiliated investments” on the Statement of Operations. Dollar rolls are valued daily. Core Bond and Total Return Bond entered into dollar roll transactions during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2011.
Dollar rolls involve the risk that the market value of the MBS the Fund is obligated to repurchase under an agreement may decline below the repurchase price. These transactions also involve some risk to the Fund if the other party should default on its obligation and the Fund is delayed or prevented from completing the transaction. In the event that the buyer of securities under a dollar roll files for bankruptcy or becomes insolvent, the Fund’s use of proceeds of the dollar roll may be restricted pending a determination by the other party, or its trustee or receiver, whether to enforce the Fund’s obligation to repurchase the securities.
Foreign Currency Transactions
To the extent a Fund invests in securities and/or contracts that are denominated in a currency other than U.S. dollars, the Fund 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 Fund’s investments denominated in that currency will lose value because its 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, investments and other assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at 4:00 p.m. Eastern time. Investments, 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 other assets and liabilities on investments, forward foreign currency exchange contracts and swaps 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 other assets and liabilities on investments are recognized as a component of “Change in net 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 forward foreign currency exchange contracts and swaps are recognized as a component of “Change in net unrealized appreciation (deprecation) of forward foreign currency exchange contracts, futures and swaps, respectively” on the Statement of Operations, when applicable.
Forward Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts
Each Fund that invests in non-dollar denominated securities is subject to foreign currency exchange rate risk in the normal course of pursuing its investment objectives and is authorized to enter into forward foreign currency exchange contracts in an attempt to manage such risk under two circumstances: (i) when a Fund enters into a contract for the purchase or sale of a security denominated in a foreign currency to “lock in” the U.S. exchange rate of the transaction, with such period being a short-dated contract covering the period between transaction date and settlement date; or (ii) when the Adviser, believes that the currency of a particular foreign country may experience a substantial movement against the U.S. dollar or against another foreign currency. Forward foreign currency exchange contracts are valued daily at the forward rate and are recognized as a component of “Unrealized appreciation or depreciation on forward foreign currency exchange contracts” on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The change in value of the contracts during the reporting period is recognized as a component of “Change in net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of forward foreign currency exchange contracts” on the Statement of Operations. When the contract is closed or offset with the same counterparty, the Fund recognizes the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was entered and the value at the time it was closed or offset as a component of “Net realized gain (loss) from forward foreign currency exchange contracts” on the Statement of Operations.

Notes to Financial Statements (all dollars and shares are rounded to thousands (000)) (continued)
Forward foreign currency exchange contracts will generally not be entered into for terms greater than three months, but may have maturities of up to six months or more. The use of forward foreign currency exchange contracts does not eliminate fluctuations in the underlying prices of a Fund’s investment securities; however, it does establish a rate of exchange that can be achieved in the future. The use of forward foreign currency exchange contracts involves the risk that anticipated currency movements will not be accurately predicted. A forward foreign currency exchange contract would limit the risk of loss due to a decline in the value of a particular currency; however, it also would limit any potential gain that might result should the value of the currency increase instead of decrease. These contracts may involve market risk in excess of the unrealized gain or loss reflected on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2011, Inflation Protected Securities, Short Term Bond and Total Return Bond invested in forward foreign currency exchange contracts to manage foreign currency exposure. To reduce unwanted currency exposure from the Fund’s portfolio of investments, the Fund acquired a short foreign currency forward.

Refer to Footnote 3 – Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities for further details on forward foreign currency exchange contract activity.
Futures Contracts
Each Fund is subject to interest rate risk in the normal course of pursuing its investment objectives and is authorized to invest in futures contracts in attempt to manage such risk. Upon entering into a futures contract, a Fund is required to deposit with the broker an amount of cash or liquid securities equal to a specified percentage of the contract amount. This is known as the “initial margin.” Cash held by the broker to cover initial margin requirements on open futures contracts, if any, is recognized as “Deposits with brokers for open futures contracts” on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Subsequent payments (“variation margin”) are made or received by a Fund each day, depending on the daily fluctuation of the value of the contract. Variation margin is recognized as a receivable or payable for “Variation margin on futures contracts” on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities, when applicable.
During the period the futures contract is open, changes in the value of the contract are recognized as an unrealized gain or loss by “marking-to-market” on a daily basis to reflect the changes in market value of the contract, which is recognized as “Change in net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of futures contracts” on the Statement of Operations. When the contract is closed or expired, the Fund records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contract on the closing date and value of the contract when originally entered into, which is recognized as “Net realized gain (loss) from futures contracts” on the Statement of Operations.
Risks of investments in futures contracts include the possible adverse movement in the price of the securities or indices underlying the contracts, the possibility that there may not be a liquid secondary market for the contracts and/or that a change in the value of the contract may not correlate with a change in the value of the underlying securities or indices.
During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2011, all the Funds used long and short U.S. Treasury note and bond futures to manage portfolio duration and yield curve exposure. To increase the duration of the portfolio, a long U.S. Treasury note or bond futures position would be acquired.

Options Transactions
Each Fund is subject to foreign currency risk and interest rate risk in the normal course of pursuing its investment objectives and with the exception of Intermediate Government Bond is authorized to purchase and write (sell) call and put options on securities, futures, swaps (“swaptions”) or currencies in an attempt to manage such risk. The purchase of options and/or swaptions 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 and/or swaptions is limited to the premium paid. The counterparty credit risk of purchasing options and/or swaptions, however, needs also 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 and/or swaption, an amount equal to the premium paid (the premium plus commission) is recognized as a component of “Options and/or Swaptions purchased, at value” on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. When a Fund writes an option and/ or swaption, an amount equal to the net premium received (the premium less commission) is recognized as a component of “Options and/or Swaptions written, at value” on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities and is subsequently adjusted to reflect the current value of the written option and/or swaption until the option and/or swaption is exercised or expires or the Fund enters into a closing purchase transaction. The changes in the value of options and/or swaptions purchased during the fiscal period are recognized as a component of “Change in net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of Options and/or Swaptions purchased” on the Statement of Operations. The changes in the value of options and/or swaptions written during the fiscal period are recognized as a component of “Change in net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of Options and/or Swaptions written” on the Statement of Operations. When an option and/or swaption is exercised or expires or the 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 and/or Swaptions purchased and/or written” on the Statement of Operations. The Fund, as a writer of an option and/or swaption 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 and/or swaption. There is also the risk the Fund may not be able to enter into a closing transaction because of an illiquid market.
During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2011, Total Return Bond invested in options contracts to express views on volatility; selling out-of-the-money calls or puts when implied volatility is high.
The average number of options contracts outstanding during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2011, was as follows:

Swap Contracts
Each Fund with the exception of Intermediate Government Bond is authorized to enter into swap contracts consistent with their investment objectives and policies to reduce, increase or otherwise alter its risk profile or to alter its portfolio characteristics (i.e. duration, yield curve positioning and credit quality).
Interest Rate Swaps
Each Fund is subject to interest rate risk in the normal course of pursuing its investment objectives and policies in an attempt to obtain a desired return at a lower cost than if the Fund had invested directly in the asset that yielded the desired return. In connection with these contracts, securities in the Funds’ portfolios of investments may be identified as collateral in accordance with the terms of the respective swap contract. Interest rate swap contracts involve the exchange by a Fund with another party of their respective commitments to pay or receive interest (i.e., an exchange of floating rate payments for fixed rate payments with respect to a specified notional amount of principal). Interest rate swap contracts are valued daily. The Funds accrue daily the periodic payments expected to be paid and received on each interest rate swap contract and recognize the daily change in the market value of the Funds’ contractual rights and obligations under the contracts. The net amount recorded on these transactions for each counterparty is recognized on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as a component of “Unrealized appreciation or depreciation on interest rate swaps” with the change during the fiscal period recognized on the Statement of Operations as a component of “Change in net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of swaps” on the Statement of Operations. Income received or paid by the Funds is recognized as a component of “Net realized gain (loss) from swaps” on the Statement of Operations, in addition to the net realized gains or losses recognized upon the termination of an interest rate swap contract and are equal to the difference between the Funds’ basis in the interest rate swap and the proceeds from (or cost of) the closing transaction. The amount of the payment obligation is based on the notional amount of the interest rate swap contract. Payments received or made at the beginning of the measurement period are recognized as a component of “Interest rate swap premiums paid and/or received” on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities, when applicable. For tax purposes, periodic payments are treated as ordinary income or expense.

Notes to Financial Statements (all dollars and shares are rounded to thousands (000)) (continued)
During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2011, Core Bond, Inflation Protected Securities, Intermediate Term Bond, Short Term Bond and Total Return Bond invested in interest rate swap contracts to hedge against changes in rate spreads by taking a short interest rate swap position. The average number of interest rate swap contracts outstanding during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2011, were as follows:
Core Bond | Inflation Protected Securities | Intermediate Term Bond | Short Term Bond | Total Return Bond | ||||||||||||||||
Average number of interest rate swap contracts outstanding* | 6 | 6 | 6 | 6 | 1 |
* | The average number of outstanding contracts is calculated based on the outstanding contracts at the beginning of the fiscal year and at the end of each fiscal quarter within the current fiscal year. |
Credit Default Swaps
Each Fund is subject to credit risk in the normal course of pursuing its investment objectives. A Fund may enter into a credit default swap contract to seek to maintain a total return on a particular investment or portion of its portfolio, or to take an active long or short position with respect to the likelihood of a particular issuer’s default. Credit default swap contracts involve one party making a stream of payments to another party in exchange for the right to receive a specified return if/when there is a credit event by a third party. Generally, a credit event means bankruptcy, failure to pay, or restructuring. The specific credit events applicable for each credit default swap are stated in the terms of the particular swap agreement. As a purchaser of a credit default swap contract, the Fund pays to the counterparty a periodic interest fee based on the notional amount of the credit default swap. This interest fee is accrued daily and recognized with the daily change in the market value of the contract as a component of “Unrealized appreciation or depreciation on credit default swaps” on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities and is recorded as a realized loss upon payment. Upon occurrence of a specific credit event with respect to the underlying referenced entity, the Fund is obligated to deliver that security, or an equivalent amount of cash, to the counterparty in exchange for receipt of the notional amount from the counterparty. The difference between the value of the security delivered and the notional amount received is recorded as a realized gain. Payments received or made at the beginning of the measurement period are recognized as a component of “Credit default swap premiums paid and/or received” on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities, when applicable. As a seller of a credit default swap contract, the Fund generally receives from the counterparty a periodic interest fee based on the notional amount of the credit default swap. This interest fee is accrued daily as a component of unrealized appreciation or depreciation and is recorded as a realized gain upon payment. Upon occurrence of a specific credit event with respect to the underlying referenced entity, the Fund will either receive that security, or an equivalent amount of cash, from the counterparty in exchange for payment of the notional amount to the counterparty, or pay a net settlement amount of the credit default swap contract less the recovery value of the referenced obligation or underlying securities comprising the referenced index. The difference between the value of the security received and the notional amount paid is recorded as a realized loss. Changes in the value of a credit default swap during the fiscal period are recognized as a component of “Change in net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of swaps”, and realized gains and losses are recognized as a component of “Net realized gain (loss) from swaps” on the Statement of Operations. The maximum potential amount of future payments the Fund could incur as a seller of protection in a credit default swap contract is limited to the notional amount of the contract. The maximum potential amount would be offset by the recovery value, if any, of the respective referenced entity.
During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2011, Core Bond, Intermediate Term Bond, Short Term Bond and Total Return Bond invested in credit default swap index positions to express a view on credit as part of an overall portfolio sector management strategy. To increase credit exposure to the high yield bond segment of the market, a long CDX High Yield Index swap would be acquired.
The average notional amount of credit default swap contracts outstanding during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2011, was as follows:
Short Term Bond | Total Return Bond | |||||||
Average notional amount of credit default swap contracts outstanding* | $ | 15,720 | $ | 23,780 |
* | The average notional amount is calculated based on the outstanding notional at the beginning of the fiscal year and at the end of each fiscal quarter within the current fiscal year. |
Refer to Footnote 3 – Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities for further details on swap contract activity.
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.
152 | Nuveen Investments |
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 predetermined 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.
Inflation-Indexed Bonds
Inflation-indexed bonds are fixed income securities whose principal value is periodically adjusted to the rate of inflation. The interest rate on these bonds is generally fixed at issuance at a rate lower than typical bonds. Over the life of an inflation-indexed bond however, interest will be paid based on a principal value which is adjusted for inflation. Any increase in the principal amount of an inflation-indexed bond will be recognized as a component of “Dividend and interest income from unaffiliated investments” on the Statement of Operations, even though investors do not receive their principal until maturity.
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.
Multiclass Operations and Allocations
Income and expenses of the Funds that are not directly attributable to a specific class of shares are prorated among the classes based on the relative net assets of each class. Expenses directly attributable to a class of shares, which presently only include 12b-1 distribution and shareholder service fees, are recorded to the specific class.
Income, realized and unrealized capital gains and losses of the Funds are prorated among the classes based on the relative net assets of each class.
Interfund Lending Program
During the period July 1, 2010 through December 31, 2010, pursuant to an exemptive order issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), the Funds, along with other registered investment companies in the First American Funds family, were allowed to participate in an interfund lending program. This program provided an alternative credit facility allowing the Funds to borrow from, or lend money to, other participating funds. The Funds did not have any interfund lending transactions during the period July 1, 2010 through December 31, 2010. The exemptive order terminated with respect to the Funds on December 31, 2010, in connection with the Sale.
Securities Lending
In order to generate additional income, each Fund may lend securities representing up to one-third of the value of its total assets (which includes collateral for securities on loan) to broker-dealers, banks, or other institutional borrowers of securities. Each Fund’s policy is to receive collateral from the borrower in the form of cash, U.S. government securities, or other high-grade debt obligations equal to at least 102% of the value of securities loaned. If the value of the securities on loan increases [such that the level of collateralization falls below 100%], additional collateral is received from the borrower, which is recognized as “Due from broker” on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. As with other extensions of credit, there may be risks of delay in recovery of the securities or even loss of rights in the collateral should the borrower of the security fail financially.
U.S. Bank National Association (“U.S. Bank”) serves as the securities lending agent for the Funds in transactions involving the lending of portfolio securities on behalf of the Funds. U.S. Bank acts as the securities lending agent pursuant to, and subject to compliance with conditions contained in, an exemptive order issued by the SEC.
During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2011, U.S. Bank, as the securities lending agent, received fees that equaled up to 25% of each Fund’s net income from securities lending transactions through December 31, 2010, and 20% of such net income thereafter. U.S. Bank paid half of such fees to USBAM for certain securities lending services provided by USBAM. Collateral for securities on loan was invested in a money market fund administered by USBAM and USBAM received an administration fee equal to .02% of each Fund’s average daily net assets invested in the money market fund.
Income from securities lending, net of fees paid to U.S. Bank, is recognized on the Statement of Operations as “Securities lending income.” Securities lending fees paid to U.S. Bank by each Fund during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2011, were as follows:
Fund | Securities Lending Fees | |||
Core Bond | $ | 37 | ||
High Income Bond | 112 | |||
Inflation Protected Securities | 15 | |||
Intermediate Government Bond | 4 | |||

Indemnifications
Under the Trust’s organizational documents, its officers and directors are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Trust. In addition, in the normal course of business, the Trust enters into contracts that provide general indemnifications to other parties. The Trust’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Trust that have not yet occurred. However, the Trust has not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts and expects 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 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 three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in the three broad levels listed below:
Level 1 – | Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities. | |
Level 2 – | Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.). | |
Level 3 – | 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 June 30, 2011:

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. For additional information on the derivative instruments in which each Fund was invested during and at the end of the reporting period, refer to the Portfolios of Investments, Financial Statements and Footnote 1 – General Information and Significant Accounting Policies.
The following tables present the fair value of all derivative instruments held by the Funds as of June 30, 2011, the location of these instruments on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities, and the primary underlying risk exposure.

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 certain gains and losses on investment transactions. 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.
At June 30, 2011, the cost and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of investments (excluding investments in derivatives, where applicable), as determined on a federal income tax basis, were as follows:

7. Management Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates
Investment Advisory Fees
During the period July 1, 2010 through December 31, 2010, pursuant to an investment advisory agreement (the “Agreement”), FAF Advisors managed each Fund’s assets and furnished related office facilities, equipment, research, and personnel. The Agreement required each Fund to pay FAF Advisors a monthly advisory fee, on an annual basis, equal to each Fund’s average daily net assets as follows:
Fund | ||||
Core Bond | .50 | % | ||
High Income Bond | .70 | |||
Inflation Protection Securities | .50 | |||
Intermediate Government Bond | .50 | |||
Intermediate Term Bond | .50 | |||
Short Term Bond | .50 | |||
Total Return Bond | .60 |
Effective January 1, 2011, pursuant to a new investment advisory agreement (the “New Agreement”), the Funds’ new investment adviser is Nuveen Fund Advisors. Under the New Agreement, each Fund’s management fee consists of two components – a fund-level fee, based only on the amount of assets within each individual Fund, and a complex-level fee, based on the aggregate amount of all eligible fund assets managed by Nuveen Fund Advisors. This pricing structure enables Fund shareholders to benefit from growth in the assets within their Fund as well as from growth in the amount of complex-wide assets managed by Nuveen Fund Advisors.
The annual fund-level fee for each Fund, payable monthly, is calculated according to the following schedule:
Average Daily Net Assets | Core Bond Fund-Level Fee Rate | High Income Fund-Level | Inflation Protected Securities Fund-Level Fee Rate | Intermediate Government Bond Fund-Level Fee Rate | Intermediate Term Bond Fund-Level Fee Rate | Short Term Bond Fund-Level Fee Rate | Total Return Bond Fund-Level Fee Rate | |||||||||||||||||||||
For the first $125 million | .4500 | % | .6000 | % | .4500 | % | .4500 | % | .4500 | % | .3000 | % | .4500 | % | ||||||||||||||
For the next $125 million | .4375 | .5875 | .4375 | .4375 | .4375 | .2875 | .4375 | |||||||||||||||||||||
For the next $250 million | .4250 | .5750 | .4250 | .4250 | .4250 | .2750 | .4250 | |||||||||||||||||||||
For the next $500 million | .4125 | .5625 | .4125 | .4125 | .4125 | .2625 | .4125 | |||||||||||||||||||||
For the next $1 billion | .4000 | .5500 | .4000 | .4000 | .4000 | .2500 | .4000 | |||||||||||||||||||||
For net assets over $2 billion | .3750 | .5250 | .3750 | .3750 | .3750 | .2250 | .3750 |
Nuveen Investments | 167 |
Notes to Financial Statements (all dollars and shares are rounded to thousands (000)) (continued)
The annual complex-level fee for each Fund, payable monthly, is determined by taking the complex-level fee rate, which is based on the aggregate amount of “eligible assets” of all Nuveen funds as set forth in the schedule below, and making, as appropriate, an upward adjustment to that rate based upon the percentage of the particular fund’s assets that are not “eligible assets.” The complex-level fee schedule for each Fund is as follows:
Complex-Level 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 |
* | The complex-level fee is calculated based upon the aggregate daily “eligible assets” of all Nuveen Funds. 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 Nuveen Fund Advisors’ assumption of the management of the former First American Funds effective January 1, 2011. Eligible assets include closed-end fund assets managed by Nuveen Fund Advisors that are attributable to financial leverage. For these purposes, financial leverage includes the closed-end funds’ 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 the TOB trust that has been effectively financed by the trust’s issuance of floating rate securities, subject to an agreement by Nuveen Fund Advisors as to certain funds to limit the amount of such assets for determining eligible assets in certain circumstances. |
As of June 30, 2011, the complex-level fee rate for each Fund was as follows: |
Fund | Complex-Level Fee Rate | |||
Core Bond | .2000 | % | ||
High Income Bond | .1971 | |||
Inflation Protected Securities | .1924 | |||
Intermediate Government Bond | .1986 | |||
Intermediate Term Bond | .1997 | |||
Short Term Bond | .1975 | |||
Total Return Bond | .1982 |
The management fee compensates Nuveen Fund Advisors for the overall investment advisory and administrative services and general office facilities it provides for the Funds. Effective January 1, 2011, Nuveen Fund Advisors has entered into sub-advisory agreements with the Sub-Adviser. The Sub-Adviser will be compensated for its services to the Funds from the management fees paid to Nuveen Fund Advisors.
During the period July 1, 2010 through December 31, 2010, the Funds may have invested in related money market funds that were series of First American Funds, Inc., subject to certain limitations. In order to avoid the payment of duplicative investment advisory fees to FAF Advisors, which acted as the investment advisor to both the investing Funds and the related money market funds, FAF Advisors reimbursed each investing Fund an amount equal to that portion of FAF Advisors’ investment advisory fee received from the related money market funds that was attributable to the assets of the investing Fund. This reimbursement, if any, is recognized as a component of “Expense Reimbursement” on the Statement of Operations and terminated with respect to the Funds on December 31, 2010, in connection with the Sale.
During the period July 1, 2010 through December 31, 2010, FAF Advisors agreed to waive fees and reimburse other Fund expenses through June 30, 2011, so that total Fund operating expenses, as a percentage of each Fund’s average daily net assets, did not exceed the following amounts:

(1) | – The Funds’ distributor, Nuveen Securities, LLC, has contractually agreed to limit Class A Share 12b-1 fees to 0.15% of average daily net assets through March 31, 2012, for Intermediate Government Bond, Intermediate Term Bond and Short Term Bond. | |
(2) | – Effective January 18, 2011, Class R Shares and Class Y Shares previously offered by FAF Advisors, Inc. were renamed Class R3 Shares and Class I Shares, respectively. |
During the period July 1, 2010 through December 31, 2010, independent directors of the Funds may have participated and elected to defer receipt of part or all of their annual compensation under a deferred compensation plan (the “Plan”). Deferred amounts were treated as though equivalent dollar amounts had been invested in shares of selected open-end funds as designated by each director. All amounts in the Plan were 100% vested and accounts under the Plan were obligations of the Funds. Deferred amounts remain in the Funds until distributed in accordance with the Plan.
Effective January 1, 2011, independent directors may elect to defer receipt of all or a portion of the annual compensation they are entitled to receive from certain funds advised by Nuveen Fund Advisors. Under the plan, deferred amounts are treated as though equal dollar amounts had been invested in shares of select funds advised by Nuveen Fund Advisors.
Administration Fees
During the period July 1, 2010 through December 31, 2010, FAF Advisors served as the Funds’ administrator pursuant to an administration agreement between FAF Advisors and the Funds. U.S. Bancorp Fund Services, LLC (“USBFS”) served as sub-administrator pursuant to a sub-administration agreement between USBFS and FAF Advisors. FAF Advisors is a subsidiary of U.S. Bank National Association (“U.S. Bank”). Both U.S. Bank and USBFS are direct subsidiaries of U.S. Bancorp. Under the administration agreement, FAF Advisors was compensated to provide, or compensated other entities to provide, services to the Funds. These services included various legal, oversight, and administrative and accounting services. The Funds paid FAF Advisors administration fees, which were calculated daily and paid monthly, equal to the Funds’ pro rata share of an amount equal, on an annual basis, to .25% of the aggregate average daily net assets of all open-end funds in the First American Funds family up to $8 billion, .235% on the next $17 billion of the aggregate average daily net assets, .22% on the next $25 billion of the aggregate average daily net assets, and .20% of the aggregate average daily net assets in excess of $50 billion. All fees paid to the sub-administrator were paid from the administration fee. In addition to these fees, the Funds may have reimbursed FAF Advisors and the sub-administrator for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred in providing administration services. Effective January 1, 2011, FAF Advisors and USBFS no longer serve as the Funds’ administrator and sub-administrator, respectively, and the Funds have not entered into any new administration or sub-administration agreements.
Transfer Agent Fees
USBFS serves as the Funds’ transfer agent pursuant to a transfer agent agreement with the Trust. The Funds are charged transfer agent fees on a per shareholder account basis, subject to a minimum fee per share class. These fees are charged to each Fund based upon the number of accounts within each Fund. In addition to these fees, the Funds may reimburse USBFS for out-of-pocket expenses incurred in providing transfer agent services.
Custodian Fees
U.S. Bank serves as the custodian for the Fund pursuant to a custodian agreement with the Trust. The custodian fee charged for each Fund is equal to an annual rate of .005% of average daily net assets. All fees are computed daily and paid monthly. Interest earned on un-invested cash balances is used to reduce a portion of each Fund’s custodian expenses. These credits, if any, are recognized as “Custodian fee credit” on the Statement of Operations. Conversely, the custodian charges a fee for any cash overdrafts incurred, which increases the Funds’ custodian expenses.
Distribution and Shareholder Servicing (12b-1) Fees
During the period July 1, 2010 through December 31, 2010, Quasar Distributors, LLC (“Quasar”), a subsidiary of U.S. Bancorp, served as the distributor of the Funds pursuant to a distribution agreement with the Trust. Under the distribution agreement, and pursuant to a plan adopted by each Fund under Rule 12b-1 of the Investment Company Act, the Funds paid Quasar a monthly distribution and/or

Notes to Financial Statements (all dollars and shares are rounded to thousands (000)) (continued)
shareholder servicing fee equal to an annual rate of .25% 1.00%, 1.00% and .50% of the Funds’ average daily net assets attributable to Class A, Class B, Class C and Class R Shares (renamed Class R3 Shares), respectively. No distribution or shareholder servicing fees were paid by Class Y Shares (renamed Class I Shares). These fees may have been used by Quasar to provide compensation for sales support, distribution activities, and/or shareholder servicing activities. During the period July 1, 2010 through December 31, 2010, Quasar waived a portion of its 12b-1 fees for Class A Shares, limiting its fees to 0.15% of average daily net assets for Intermediate Government Bond, Intermediate Term Bond and Short Term Bond, respectively.
Effective January 1, 2011, the Funds entered into a distribution agreement with Nuveen Securities, LLC, who now serves as the Funds’ distributor. Under the new agreement, Class A Shares continue to incur a .25% annual 12b-1 service fee. Class B and Class C Shares continue to incur a .75% annual 12b-1 distribution fee and a .25% annual 12b-1 service fee. Class R3 Shares continue to incur a .25% annual 12b-1 distribution fee and a .25% annual 12b-1 service fee. Class I Shares continue to not be subject to any sales charge or 12b-1 distribution or service fees. Annual distribution and service fees are based on average daily net assets.
Nuveen Securities, LLC has contractually agreed to limit its Class A Share 12b-1 fees to .15% of average daily net assets through March 31, 2012, for Intermediate Government Bond, Intermediate Term Bond and Short Term Bond.
During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2011, total distribution and service fees waived by Quasar and/or Nuveen Securities, LLC for the following Funds were as follows:
Fund | Amount | |||
Intermediate Government Bond | $ | 9 | ||
Intermediate Term Bond | 13 | |||
Short Term Bond | 44 |
The remaining 12b-1 fees charged to the Funds were paid to compensate financial intermediaries for providing services to shareholders relating to their investments.
During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2011, Quasar and/or Nuveen Securities, LLC. collected sales charges on purchases of Class A Shares, the majority of which were paid out as concessions to financial intermediaries as follows:

Other Fees and Expenses
In addition to the investment advisory fees, administration fees, transfer agent fees, custodian fees, and distribution and shareholder servicing fees, each Fund is responsible for paying other operating expenses, including: legal, auditing, registration fees, postage and printing of shareholder reports, fees and expenses of independent directors, insurance, and other miscellaneous expenses. During the period July 1, 2010 through December 31, 2010, legal fees and expenses of $17 were paid to a law firm of which an Assistant Secretary of the Funds was a partner.
Contingent Deferred Sales Charges
During the period July 1, 2010 through January 17, 2011, Class A Shares of Intermediate Government Bond, Intermediate Term Bond and Short Term Bond were sold with an up-front sales charge of 2.25%. Class A Shares of Core Bond, High Income Bond, Inflation Protected Securities and Total Return Bond were sold with an up-front sales charge of 4.25%. Class B Shares were subject to a contingent deferred sales charge (“CDSC”) for six years and automatically converted to Class A after eight years. Class C Shares were subject to a CDSC of 1% for twelve months. Class R Shares (renamed Class R3 Shares) had no sales charge and were available to only certain retirement plans. Class Y Shares (renamed Class I Shares) had no sales charge and were offered only to qualifying institutional investors and certain other qualifying accounts.
Effective January 18, 2011, Class A Shares of the Funds are sold with an up-front sales charge of 4.25% for Core Bond, Inflation Protected Securities and Total Return Bond, 4.75% for High Income Bond, 3.00% for Intermediate Government Bond and Intermediate Term Bond and 2.25% for Short Term Bond. Class A Share purchases of the Funds, with the exception of Short Term Bond, of $1 million or more are sold at net asset value without an up-front sales charge. Class A Share purchases of Short Term Bond of $250,000 or more are sold at net asset value without an up-front sales charge. Class A Share purchases of the Funds may be subject to a CDSC if redeemed within eighteen months of purchase. Class B Shares have a CDSC that begins at 5% and for redemptions during the first year and declines periodically until after six years when the charge becomes 0%. Class B Shares automatically convert to Class A Shares eight years after purchase. Class C Shares are subject to a CDSC of 1% if redeemed within twelve months of purchase. Class R3 and Class I Shares are not subject to any sales charge and are offered only to certain qualifying accounts and qualifying institutional investors, respectively.

8. Regulatory Settlement
On August 23, 2010, Core Bond, Intermediate Government Bond and Intermediate Term Bond received settlement payments from the SEC related to the BISYS Fair Fund Settlement. The settlement was paid to funds that had used BISYS from June 1999 through June 2004. The Mercantile Funds, which subsequently merged into Core Bond, Intermediate Bond and Intermediate Term Bond, had used BISYS as an administrator during this period. Because the settlement was for the overcharging of expenses to these Funds, the amounts are recognized as “Expense reimbursement from regulatory settlement” on the Statement of Operations.

10. New Accounting Pronouncements
Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures
On May 12, 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2011-04 (“ASU No. 2011-04”) modifying Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures. At the same time, the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) issued International Financial Reporting Standard (“IFRS”) 13, Fair Value Measurement. The objective of the FASB and IASB is convergence of their guidance on fair value measurements and disclosures. Specifically, ASU No. 2011-04 requires reporting entities to disclose i) the amounts of any transfers between Level 1 and Level 2, and the reasons for the transfers, ii) for Level 3 fair value measurements, a) quantitative information about significant unobservable inputs used, b) a description of the valuation processes used by the reporting entity and c) a narrative description of the sensitivity of the fair value measurement to changes in unobservable inputs if a change in those inputs might result in a significantly higher or lower fair value measurement. The effective date of ASU No. 2011-04 is for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. At this time, management is evaluating the implications of this guidance and the impact it will have on the financial statement amounts and footnote disclosures, if any.

Annual Investment Management Agreement Approval Process
(Unaudited)
A. Background
Prior to January 1, 2011, FAF Advisors, Inc. (“FAF”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of U.S. Bank National Association (“U.S. Bank”), served as investment adviser to each Fund pursuant to an investment advisory agreement between First American Investment Funds, Inc. (the “Company”) and FAF (the “Prior Advisory Agreement”), and as administrator to each Fund pursuant to an administrative agreement between the Company and FAF (the “Prior Administrative Agreement”). On July 29, 2010, U.S. Bank and FAF entered into a definitive agreement with Nuveen Investments, Inc. (“Nuveen”), Nuveen Asset Management (“NAM”) and certain Nuveen affiliates, whereby NAM would acquire a portion of the asset management business of FAF (the “Transaction”). The acquired business included the assets of FAF used in providing investment advisory services, research, sales and distribution in connection with equity, fixed income, real estate, global infrastructure and asset allocation investment products (other than the money market business and closed-end funds advised by FAF), including the Funds. In connection with the Transaction, the Board of Directors (the “Prior Board”) serving the Funds as directors at that time (each a “Prior Director” and, collectively, the “Prior Directors”) considered a number of proposals designed to integrate the Funds into the Nuveen family of funds, including the appointment of NAM as investment adviser and Nuveen Investments, LLC as distributor to the Funds. The Prior Board also considered a proposal in connection with an internal restructuring of NAM (the “Restructuring”), for Nuveen Asset Management, LLC (“NAM LLC”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of NAM formed in anticipation of the Restructuring, to serve as sub-advisor for each Fund.
The Prior Board approved a new investment advisory agreement (the “New Advisory Agreement”) for each Fund with NAM and an investment sub-advisory agreement between NAM and NAM LLC (the “NAM Sub-Advisory Agreement”). At a meeting of the Funds’ stockholders held on December 17, 2010, stockholders of the Funds approved the New Advisory Agreement and the NAM Sub-Advisory Agreement. In addition, stockholders of the Company’s funds (including the Funds) elected ten directors, including one Prior Director, to the board of directors of the Company (the “New Board”).
On December 31, 2010, the Transaction closed and the New Board (which replaced the Prior Board) took effect. On January 1, 2011, the New Advisory Agreement and the NAM Sub-Advisory Agreement became effective. In addition, in connection with the Restructuring, NAM has changed its name to Nuveen Fund Advisors, Inc. (“NFA”). The following is a summary of the considerations of the Prior Board, which were set forth in a proxy statement dated November 10, 2010 (the “Proxy Statement”), in approving the New Advisory Agreement and the NAM Sub-Advisory Agreement for the Funds.
B. Prior Board Considerations
The New Advisory Agreement for each Fund was approved by the Prior Board after consideration of all factors determined to be relevant to its deliberations, including those discussed below. The Prior Board authorized the submission of the New Advisory Agreement for consideration by each Fund’s stockholders.
At meetings held in May and June of 2010, the Prior Board was apprised of the general terms of the Transaction and, as a result, began the process of considering the transition of services from FAF to NFA. In preparation for its September 21-23, 2010 meeting, the Prior Board received, in response to a written due diligence request prepared by the Prior Board and its independent legal counsel and provided to NFA and FAF, a significant amount of information covering a range of issues in advance of the meeting. To assist the Prior Board in its consideration of the New Advisory Agreement for each Fund, NFA provided materials and information about, among other things: (1) NFA and its affiliates, including their history and organizational structure, product lines, experience in providing investment advisory, administrative and other services, and financial condition, (2) the nature, extent and quality of services to be provided under the New Advisory Agreement, (3) proposed Fund fees and expenses and comparative information relating thereto, and (4) NFA’s compliance and risk management capabilities and processes. In addition, the Prior Board was provided with a memorandum from independent legal counsel outlining the legal duties of the Prior Board under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). In response to further requests from the Prior Board and its independent legal counsel, NFA and FAF provided additional information to the Prior Board following its September 21-23 meeting.
An additional in-person meeting of the Prior Board to consider the New Advisory Agreement was held on October 7, 2010, at which the members of the Prior Board in attendance, all of whom were not considered to be “interested persons” of the Company as defined in the 1940 Act (the “Independent Prior Directors”), approved the New Advisory Agreement with NFA for each Fund.
In considering the New Advisory Agreement for each Fund, the Prior Board, advised by independent legal counsel, reviewed and analyzed the factors it deemed relevant, including: (1) the nature, quality, and extent of services to be rendered to the Funds by NFA, (2) the cost of services to be provided, including Fund expense information, and (3) whether economies of scale may be realized as the Funds grow and whether fee levels are adjusted to enable Fund investors to share in these potential economies of scale.
In considering the New Advisory Agreement, the Prior Board did not identify any particular information that was all-important or controlling, and each Prior Director may have attributed different weights to the various factors discussed below. Where appropriate, the Prior Directors evaluated all information available to them regarding the Company’s funds on a fund-by-fund basis, and their determinations were made separately with respect to each such fund (including each of the Funds). The Prior Directors, all of whom were Independent Prior Directors, concluded that the terms of the New Advisory Agreement and the fee rates to be paid in light of the services to be provided to each Fund are in the best interests of each Fund, and that the New Advisory Agreement should be

Annual Investment Management Agreement Approval Process
(Unaudited) (continued)
approved and recommended to stockholders for approval. In voting to approve the New Advisory Agreement with respect to each Fund, the Prior Board considered in particular the following factors:
Nature, Extent and Quality of Services. In considering approval of the New Advisory Agreement, the Prior Board considered the nature, extent and quality of services to be provided by NFA, including advisory services and administrative services. The Prior Board reviewed materials outlining, among other things, NFA’s organizational structure and business; the types of services that NFA or its affiliates are expected to provide to the Funds; the performance record of the applicable Fund (as described in further detail below); and fund product lines offered by NFA. The Prior Board considered that affiliation with a larger fund complex and well-recognized sponsor may result in a broader distribution network, potential economies of scale with respect to other services or fees and broader shareholder services including exchange options.
With respect to personnel, the Prior Board considered information regarding retention plans for current FAF employees who would be offered employment by NFA, and the background and experience of NFA employees who would become portfolio managers as of the closing of the Transaction. The Prior Board also reviewed information regarding portfolio manager compensation arrangements to evaluate NFA’s ability to attract and retain high quality investment personnel.
In evaluating the services of NFA, the Prior Board also considered NFA’s ability to supervise the Funds’ other service providers and, given the importance of compliance, NFA’s compliance program. Among other things, the Prior Board considered the report of NFA’s chief compliance officer regarding NFA’s compliance policies and procedures.
In addition to advisory services, the Prior Board considered the quality of administrative services expected to be provided by NFA and its affiliates including product management, fund administration, oversight of service providers, shareholder services, administration of Board relations, regulatory and portfolio compliance and legal support.
The Prior Board considered that, based on representations from FAF and NFA, the Transaction would allow stockholders to continue their investment in each of the Company’s funds with the same investment objective and principal strategies and, in most cases, the same portfolio management team. In light of the continuity of investment personnel in most cases (with respect to the Company’s funds in the aggregate), the Prior Board considered the historical investment performance of each of the Company’s funds (including each Fund) previously provided during the annual contract renewal process.
Cost of Services Provided by NFA. In evaluating the costs of the services to be provided by NFA under the New Advisory Agreement, the Prior Board received a comparison of each Fund’s annual operating expenses as of June 30, 2010 under the Prior Advisory Agreement and under the New Advisory Agreement, in each case adjusted to reflect a decrease in net assets for certain of the Company’s funds from redemptions by the U.S. Bank 401(k) Plan expected to occur prior to the closing of the Transaction. The Prior Board considered, among other things, that the advisory fee rates and other expenses would change as a result of NFA serving as investment adviser to each Fund. The Prior Board noted that the services provided by NFA under the New Advisory Agreement would include certain administrative services, which services (along with other services) were provided pursuant to the Prior Administrative Agreement and were charged separately from the advisory fee. Accordingly, the Prior Board considered that the fee rates paid under the New Advisory Agreement include bundled investment advisory and administrative fees and thus are higher than the fee rates paid under the Prior Advisory Agreement for most of the Company’s funds, but lower than the combined fee rates paid under the Prior Advisory Agreement and the Prior Administrative Agreement. The Prior Board also noted that certain administrative services provided under the Prior Administrative Agreement would not be provided under the New Advisory Agreement and will be delegated to other service providers. Similarly, certain fees paid by FAF under the Prior Administrative Agreement will not be paid by NFA under the New Advisory Agreement and will be paid directly by the Funds. However, immediately following the closing of the Transaction, the net expense ratio of each Fund was expected to be the same or lower than the Fund’s net expense ratio as of June 30, 2010, adjusted (where applicable) to reflect a decrease in net assets resulting from redemptions by the U.S. Bank 401(k) Plan expected to occur prior to the closing of the Transaction, assuming the Fund’s net assets at the time of the closing of the Transaction were no lower than their adjusted June 30 level. In addition, the Prior Board noted that NFA has committed to certain undertakings to maintain current fee caps and/or to waive fees or reimburse expenses to maintain net management fees at certain levels and Nuveen has represented to the Prior Board that Nuveen and its affiliates will not take any action that imposes an “unfair burden” on any Fund as a result of the Transaction. The Prior Board also considered that fees payable under the New Advisory Agreement include both a fund-level fee and a complex-level fee, and that schedules for the fund-level and complex-level fees contain breakpoints that are based, respectively, on Fund assets and Nuveen complex-wide assets. The Prior Board considered that breakpoints in the fund-level fee allow for the possibility that this portion of the advisory fee could decline in the future if Fund assets were to increase or increase in the future if Fund assets were to decline. The Prior Board also considered that breakpoints in the complex-level fee allow for the possibility that this portion of the advisory fee could decline in the future if complex-wide assets were to increase or increase in the future if complex-wide assets were to decline, regardless, in each case, of whether assets of the particular Fund had increased or decreased.
In considering the compensation to be paid to NFA, the Prior Board also reviewed fee information regarding NFA-sponsored funds, to the extent such funds had similar investment objectives and strategies to the Funds. The Prior Board reviewed information provided by NFA regarding similar funds managed by NFA and noted that the fee rates payable by these funds were generally comparable to the fee rates proposed for the Company’s funds. The Prior Board also compared proposed fee and expense information to the median fees and expenses of comparable funds, using information provided by an independent data service.
178 | Nuveen Investments |
In evaluating the compensation, the Prior Board also considered other amounts expected to be paid to NFA by the Funds as well as any indirect benefits (such as soft dollar arrangements, if any) NFA and its affiliates are expected to receive, that are directly attributable to the management of the Funds.
The Prior Board also considered that the Funds would not bear any of the costs relating to the Transaction, including the costs of preparing, printing and mailing the Proxy Statement.
Economies of Scale. The Prior Board reviewed information regarding potential economies of scale or other efficiencies that might result from the Funds’ potential association with Nuveen. The Prior Board noted that the New Advisory Agreement provides for breakpoints in the Funds’ fund-level and complex-level management fee rates as the assets of the Funds and the assets held by the various registered investment companies sponsored by Nuveen increase, respectively. The Prior Board concluded that the structure of the investment management fee rates, with the breakpoints for the Funds under the New Advisory Agreement, reflected sharing of potential economies of scale with the Funds’ stockholders.
Conclusion. After deliberating in executive session, the members of the Prior Board in attendance, all of whom were Independent Prior Directors, approved the New Advisory Agreement with respect to each Fund, concluding that the New Advisory Agreement was in the best interests of each Fund.
NAM Sub-Advisory Agreement. The Prior Board also approved the NAM Sub-Advisory Agreement between NFA and NAM LLC as a result of the Restructuring expected to occur with NFA. The Prior Board considered that the services to be provided by NAM LLC under the NAM Sub-Advisory Agreement would not result in any material change in the nature or level of investment advisory services or administrative services provided to the Funds. In addition, the portfolio managers will continue to manage the Funds in their capacity as employees of NAM LLC. The Prior Board considered that NFA will pay a portion of the advisory fee it receives from each Fund to NAM LLC for its services as sub-advisor. The Prior Board concluded, based upon the conclusions that the Prior Board reached in connection with the approval of the New Advisory Agreement and after determining that it need not reconsider all of the factors that it had considered in connection with the approval of the New Advisory Agreement, to approve the NAM Sub-Advisory Agreement.

As of the end of the period covered by this report, the registrant has adopted a code of ethics that applies to the registrant’s principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions. There were no amendments to or waivers from the code during the period covered by this report. The registrant has posted the code of ethics on its website at www.nuveen.com/mf.

ITEM 3. AUDIT COMMITTEE FINANCIAL EXPERT.
The registrant’s Board of Trustees 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. As part of her role as Director, Ms. Stone was actively involved in overseeing the development of the State’s operating, local assistance and capital budgets, its financial plan and related documents; overseeing the development of the State’s bond-related disclosure documents and certifying that they fairly presented the State’s financial position; reviewing audits of various State and local agencies and programs; and coordinating the State’s system of internal audit and control. Prior to serving as Director, Ms. Stone worked as a budget analyst/examiner with increasing levels of responsibility over a 30 year period, including approximately five years as Deputy Budget Director. Ms. Stone has also served as Chair of the New York State Racing Association Oversight Board, as Chair of the Public Authorities Control Board, as a Commissioner on the New York State Commission on Public Authority Reform and as a member of the Boards of Directors of several New York State public authorities. These positions have involved overseeing operations and finances of certain entities and assessing the adequacy of project/entity financing and financial reporting. Currently, Ms. Stone is on the Board of Directors of CBOE Holdings, Inc., of the Chicago Board Options Exchange, and of C2 Options Exchange. Ms. Stone’s position on the boards of these entities and as a member of both CBOE Holdings’ Audit Committee and its Finance Committee has involved, among other things, the oversight of audits, audit plans and preparation of financial statements.
ITEM 4. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTANT FEES AND SERVICES.
The following tables show the amount of fees that Ernst & Young LLP, the Trust’s auditor, billed to the Trust during the Trust’s last two full fiscal years. The Audit Committee approved in advance all audit services and non-audit services that Ernst & Young LLP provided to the Trust, 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 Trust 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 Trust during the fiscal year in which the services are provided; (B) the Trust 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.
