Important Notice to Fund Shareholders

JUNE   , 2008

Although we recommend that you read the complete Proxy Statement, for your convenience, we have provided a brief overview of the issues to be voted on.

Q.	Why am I receiving this Proxy Statement?
A.	You are receiving this proxy as a Fund shareholder in connection with the annual shareholder meeting for the Nuveen municipal closed-end funds listed at the top of the Notice to Shareholders.
	You are being asked to vote on one or two important matters affecting your investment in the Fund:

(i)   Updated Investment Policies (All Funds except Nuveen Municipal High Income Opportunity Fund 2 (the “Affected Funds”)). Nuveen’s municipal closed-end funds are seeking to adopt a uniform, “up to date” set of investment policies (the “New Investment Policies”). In general, these funds currently have a somewhat diverse set of policies, reflecting when the funds were launched over the past 20 years as well as developments over time in the municipal market, including new types of securities as well as investment strategies. The potential benefits to you as a fund shareholder of the New Investment Policies are:

•  Enhanced ability of the Affected Funds to generate attractive levels of tax-exempt income, while retaining the Affected Funds’ orientation on investment grade quality municipal securities;

•  Increased flexibility in diversifying portfolio risks and managing duration (the sensitivity of bond prices to interest rate changes) to pursue the preservation and possible growth of capital, which if successful will help to sustain and build common shareholder net asset value and asset coverage levels for preferred shares; and

•  Improved secondary market competitiveness which may benefit common shareholders through higher relative market priceand/or stronger premium/discount performance.

In order to implement the New Investment Policies, each Affected Fund must make certain changes to its existing policies, including certain fundamental policies that require your vote of approval. In some cases, this may require your separate votes to approve the elimination of an existing fundamental investment policy as well as the implementation of a new replacement fundamental policy. Because each Affected Fund tends to be situated somewhat differently, the specific changes required to implement the New Investment Policies often vary from fund to fund.

(ii)  Approval of Fund Board Nominees (All Funds).  Each year, you and other Fund shareholders must approve the election of Board members to serve on your Fund’s Board. This is a requirement for all funds that list their common shares on a stock exchange. The Funds described in this proxy statement are holding their annual shareholder meetings at which Board members will be elected. The list of specific nominees is contained in the enclosed proxy.

Your Fund’s Board of Trustees/Directors, including your Board’s independent members, unanimously recommends that you vote FOR each proposal.

Your vote is very important. We encourage you as a shareholder to participate in your Fund’s governance by returning your vote as soon as possible. If enough shareholders don’t cast their votes, your Fund may not be able to hold its meeting or the vote on each issue, and will be required to incur additional solicitation costs in order to obtain sufficient shareholder participation.

Q.	Why are shareholders of the Affected Funds being asked to approve the elimination of fundamental investment policies and to approve new fundamental investment policies?
A.	Eliminating the fundamental investment policies and adopting new fundamental investment policies would provide the Affected Funds with increased investment flexibility to rapidly respond to continuing developments in the municipal market and would enhance the portfolio managers’ ability to meet each Affected Fund’s investment objective. Additionally, the proposed changes will create consistent investment policies for all Nuveen Municipal bond funds and will help to promote operational efficiencies.
Q.	What happens if shareholders don’t approve the elimination of the fundamental investment policies and/or don’t approve the new fundamental investment policies?
A.	The approval of each new fundamental policy is contingent on the elimination of that Fund’s similar current fundamental policy, as indicated in the Proxy Statement. The elimination of each Affected Fund’s fundamental name test policy in 2a. is contingent on the approval of each Affected Fund’s new fundamental name test policy as shown in 2b. If the elimination of a fundamental investment policy is not approved by shareholders, that policy will remain in place. Your Fund’s Board urges you to vote without delay in order to avoid potential disruption to the Fund’s operations.
Q.	Who do I call if I have questions?
A.	If you need any assistance, or have any questions regarding the proposals or how to vote your shares, please call Computershare Fund Services, your Fund proxy solicitor, at(866) 434-7510. Please have your proxy material available when you call.
Q.	How do I vote my shares?
A.	You can vote your shares by completing and signing the enclosed proxy card, and mailing it in the enclosed postage-paid envelope. Alternatively, you may vote by telephone by calling the toll-free number on the proxy card or by computer by going to the Internet address provided on the proxy card and following the instructions, using your proxy card as a guide.
Q.	Will anyone contact me?
A.	You may receive a call from Computershare Fund Services, the proxy solicitor hired by your Fund, to verify that you received your proxy materials, to answer any questions you may have about the proposals and to encourage you to vote your proxy.

We recognize the inconvenience of the proxy solicitation process and would not impose on you if we did not believe that the matters being proposed were important and in the best interests of the Fund’s shareholders. Once your vote has been registered with the proxy solicitor, your name will be removed from the solicitor’sfollow-up contact list.

X	X

(1)  Municipal Auction Rate Cumulative Preferred Shares (“MuniPreferred”) are referred to as “Preferred Shares.” Municipal Value, Municipal Income, Select Maturities, Select Portfolio, Select Portfolio 2, Select Portfolio 3, California Portfolio and New York Portfolio have not issued Preferred Shares.

A quorum of shareholders is required to take action at each Annual Meeting. A majority of the shares entitled to vote at each Annual Meeting, represented in person or by proxy, will constitute a quorum of shareholders at that Annual Meeting, except that for the election of the two Board Member nominees to be elected by holders of Preferred Shares of each Fund (except

3

Municipal Value, Municipal Income, Select Maturities, Select Portfolio, Select Portfolio 2, Select Portfolio 3, California Portfolio, New York Portfolio and Municipal High Income 2), 331/3% of the Preferred Shares entitled to vote and represented in person or by proxy will constitute a quorum. Votes cast by proxy or in person at each Annual Meeting will be tabulated by the inspectors of election appointed for that Annual Meeting. The inspectors of election will determine whether or not a quorum is present at the Annual Meeting. The inspectors of election will treat abstentions and “broker non-votes” (i.e., shares held by brokers or nominees, typically in “street name,” as to which (i) instructions have not been received from the beneficial owners or persons entitled to vote and (ii) the broker or nominee does not have discretionary voting power on a particular matter) as present for purposes of determining a quorum.

For each Fund, the affirmative vote of a plurality of the shares present and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting will be required to elect the Board Members of that Fund. For purposes of determining the approval of the proposal to elect nominees for each Fund, abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on the election of Board Members. For purposes of determining the approval of the elimination of the fundamental investment policies and the approval of the adoption of the new fundamental investment policies for Municipal Value, Municipal Income, Select Maturities, Select Portfolio, Select Portfolio 2, Select Portfolio 3, California Portfolio and New York Portfolio, a change will only be consummated if approved by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of a Fund. For purposes of determining the approval of the elimination of the fundamental investment policies and the approval of the adoption of the new fundamental investment policies for Premium Income, Performance Plus, Municipal Advantage, Municipal Market Opportunity, Investment Quality, Select Quality, Quality Income, Premier Municipal, Premium Income 2, Premium Income 4, Dividend Advantage, Dividend Advantage 2, Dividend Advantage 3 and Municipal High Income, a change will only be consummated if approved by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of a Fund’s Common Shares and Preferred Shares, voting together as a single class, and of the Preferred Shares, voting as a separate class. For this purpose, a majority of the outstanding shares means, as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”) (a) 67% or more of class/classes shares present at the Annual Meeting, if the holders of more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities of the class/classes are present or represented by proxy; or (b) more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities of class/classes, whichever is less. For purposes of determining the approval of the elimination of the fundamental investment policies and the approval of the new fundamental investment policies, abstentions and broker non-votes will have the same effect as shares voted against the proposal.

Preferred Shares held in “street name” as to which voting instructions have not been received from the beneficial owners or persons entitled to vote as of one business day before the Annual Meeting, or, if adjourned, one business day before the day to which the Annual Meeting is adjourned, and that would otherwise be treated as “broker non-votes” may, pursuant to Rule 452 of the New York Stock Exchange, be voted by the broker on the proposal in the same proportion as the votes cast by all holders of Preferred Shares as a class who have voted on the proposal or in the same proportion as the votes cast by all holders of Preferred Shares of the Fund who have voted on that item. Rule 452 permits proportionate voting of Preferred Shares with respect to a particular item if, among other things, (i) a minimum of 30% of the Preferred Shares or shares of a series of Preferred Shares outstanding has been voted by the holders of such shares with respect to such item and (ii) less than 10% of the Preferred Shares or shares

4

of a series of Preferred Shares outstanding has been voted by the holders of such shares against such item. For the purpose of meeting the 30% test, abstentions will be treated as shares “voted” and, for the purpose of meeting the 10% test, abstentions will not be treated as shares “voted” against the item.

Those persons who were shareholders of record at the close of business on June 2, 2008 will be entitled to one vote for each share held and a proportionate fractional vote for each fractional share held. As of June 2, 2008, the shares of the Funds were issued and outstanding as follows:

The dollar range of equity securities beneficially owned by each Board Member in each Fund and all Nuveen funds overseen by the Board Member as of December 31, 2007 is set forth in Appendix A.

Each Board Member’s individual beneficial shareholdings of each Fund constituted less than 1% of the outstanding shares of each Fund. [As of the Record Date, the Board Members and executive officers as a group beneficially owned less than 1% of the outstanding shares of each Fund. As of June 2, 2008, no shareholder beneficially owned more than 5% of any class of shares of any Fund.]

In connection with the transaction, Mr. Amboian paid $30 million to acquire interests in Windy City Investments Holdings, L.L.C., the parent company of Windy City.

Compensation

In addition to the

12

payments described above, the Lead Independent Director received $25,000, the chairpersons of the audit committee and the compliance, risk management and regulatory oversight committee received $7,500 and the chairperson of the nominating and governance committee received $5,000 as additional retainers to the annual retainer paid to such individuals. Independent Board Members also received a fee of $2,000 per day for site visits to entities that provide services to the Nuveen funds on days on which no regularly scheduled board meeting is held. When ad hoc committees are organized, the nominating and governance committee will at the time of formation determine compensation to be paid to the members of such committee, however, in general such fees will be $1,000 per meeting for attendance in person at any ad hoc committee meeting where in-person attendance is required and $500 per meeting for attendance by telephone or in person at such meetings where in-person attendance is not required. The annual retainer, fees and expenses were allocated among the funds managed by the Adviser, on the basis of relative net asset sizes although fund management may, in its discretion, establish a minimum amount to be allocated to each fund. The Board Member affiliated with Nuveen and the Adviser serves without any compensation from the Funds.

Effective January 1, 2008, for all funds in the Nuveen complex, Independent Board Members receive a $100,000 annual retainer plus (a) a fee of $3,250 per day for attendance in person or by telephone at a regularly scheduled meeting of the Board; (b) a fee of $2,500 per meeting for attendance in person where such in-person attendance is required and $1,500 per meeting for attendance by telephone or in person where in-person attendance is not required at a special, non-regularly scheduled board meeting; (c) a fee of $2,000 per meeting for attendance in person or $1,500 per meeting for by telephone at an audit committee meeting; (d) a fee of $2,000 per meeting for attendance at a regularly scheduled compliance, risk management and regulatory oversight committee meeting for regular quarterly meetings and $1,000 per meeting for attendance of other, non-quarterly meetings; (e) a fee of $1,000 per meeting for attendance in person or by telephone for a meeting of the dividend committee; and (f) a fee of $500 per meeting for attendance in person at all other committee meetings, $1,000 for attendance at shareholder meetings, on a day on which no regularly scheduled board meeting is held in which in-person attendance is required and $250 per meeting for attendance by telephone or in person at such committee meetings (excluding shareholder meetings) where in-person attendance is not required and $100 per meeting when the executive committee acts as pricing committee for IPOs, plus, in each case, expenses incurred in attending such meetings. In addition to the payments described above, the Independent Chairman receives $50,000 and the Lead Independent Director, if any, receives $35,000, the chairpersons of the audit committee and the compliance, risk management and regulatory oversight committee receive $7,500 and the chairperson of the nominating and governance committee receives $5,000 as additional retainers to the annual retainer paid to such individuals. Independent Board Members also receive a fee of $2,500 per day for site visits to entities that provide services to the Nuveen funds on days on which no regularly scheduled board meeting is held. When ad hoc committees are organized, the nominating and governance committee will at the time of formation determine compensation to be paid to the members of such committee, however, in general such fees will be $1,000 per meeting for attendance in person at any ad hoc committee meeting where in-person attendance is required and $500 per meeting for attendance by telephone or in person at such meetings where in-person attendance is not required. The annual retainer, fees and expenses are allocated among the funds managed by the Adviser, on the basis of relative net asset sizes although fund management may, in its discretion, establish a minimum amount

13

to be allocated to each fund. The Board Member affiliated with Nuveen and the Adviser serves without any compensation from the Funds.

The boards of certain Nuveen funds (the “Participating Funds”) established a Deferred Compensation Plan for Independent Board Members (“Deferred Compensation Plan”). Under the Deferred Compensation Plan, Independent Board Members of the Participating Funds may defer receipt of all, or a portion, of the compensation they earn for their services to the Participating Funds, in lieu of receiving current payments of such compensation. Any deferred amount is treated as though an equivalent dollar amount had been invested in shares of one or more eligible Nuveen funds.

The table below shows, for each Independent Board Member, the aggregate compensation (i) paid by each Fund to each Board Member for its last fiscal year and (ii) paid (including deferred fees) for service on the boards of the Nuveen open-end and closed-end funds managed by the Adviser for the last fiscal year.

Committees

The Board of each Fund has five standing committees: the executive committee, the audit committee, the nominating and governance committee, the dividend committee and the compliance, risk management and regulatory oversight committee.

Robert P. Bremner, Judith M. Stockdale and Timothy R. Schwertfeger, Chair, serve as current members of the executive committee of each Fund. The executive committee, which meets between regular meetings of the Board, is authorized to exercise all of the powers of the Board; provided that the scope of the powers of the executive committee, unless otherwise specifically authorized by the full Board, is limited to: (i) emergency matters where assembly of the full Board is impracticable (in which case management will take all reasonable steps to quickly notify each individual Board Member of the actions taken by the executive committee) and (ii) matters of an administrative or ministerial nature. The number of executive committee meetings of each Fund held during its last fiscal year is shown in Appendix B.

Jack B. Evans, Judith M. Stockdale and Timothy R. Schwertfeger, Chair, are current members of the dividend committee of each Fund. The dividend committee is authorized to declare distributions on the Fund’s shares including, but not limited to, regular and special dividends, capital gains and ordinary income distributions. The number of dividend committee meetings of each Fund held during its last fiscal year is shown in Appendix B.

William C. Hunter, William J. Schneider, Chair, Judith M. Stockdale and Carole E. Stone are current members of the compliance, risk management and regulatory oversight committee of each Fund. The compliance, risk management and regulatory oversight committee is responsible for the oversight of compliance issues, risk management, and other regulatory matters affecting the Funds which are not otherwise the jurisdiction of the other Board committees. The number of compliance, risk management and regulatory oversight committee meetings of each Fund held during its last fiscal year is shown in Appendix B.

Each Fund’s Board has an audit committee, in accordance with Section 3(a)(58)(A) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “1934 Act”), that is composed of Independent Board Members who are also “independent” as that term is defined in the listing standards pertaining to closed-end funds of the New York Stock Exchange and American Stock Exchange, as applicable. Robert P. Bremner, Jack B. Evans, Chair, David J. Kundert and William J. Schneider are current members of the audit committee of each Fund. The audit committee is responsible for the oversight and monitoring of (1) the accounting and reporting policies, procedures and practices and the audit of the financial statements of the Funds (2) the quality and integrity of the financial statements of the Funds and (3) the independent registered public accounting firm’s qualifications, performance and independence. The audit committee reviews the work and any recommendations of the Funds’ independent registered public accounting firm. Based on such review, it is authorized to make recommendations to the Board. The audit committee is also responsible for the oversight of the Pricing Procedures of the Funds and the internal Valuation Group. The Boards have adopted a written Audit Committee Charter that conforms to the listing standards of the New York Stock Exchange and American Stock Exchange. A copy of the Audit Committee Charter is attached to the proxy statement as Appendix C. The number of audit committee meetings of each Fund held during its last fiscal year is shown in Appendix B.

Each Fund has a nominating and governance committee that is composed entirely of Independent Board Members who are also “independent” as defined by New York Stock

17

Exchange or American Stock Exchange listing standards, as applicable. Robert P. Bremner, Chair, Jack B. Evans, William C. Hunter, David J. Kundert, William J. Schneider, Judith M. Stockdale and Carole E. Stone are current members of the nominating and governance committee of each Fund. The purpose of the nominating and governance committee is to seek, identify and recommend to the Board qualified candidates for election or appointment to each Fund’s Board. In addition, the committee oversees matters of corporate governance, including the evaluation of Board performance and processes, and assignment and rotation of committee members, and the establishment of corporate governance guidelines and procedures, to the extent necessary or desirable. The committee operates under a written charter adopted and approved by the Boards of each Fund, a copy of which is available on the Funds’ website at www.nuveen.com/etf/products/fundGovernance.aspx. The number of nominating and governance committee meetings of each Fund held during its last fiscal year is shown in Appendix B.

The nominating and governance committee looks to many sources for recommendations of qualified candidates, including current Board Members, employees of the Adviser, current shareholders of the Funds, third party sources and any other persons or entities that may be deemed necessary or desirable by the committee. Shareholders of the Funds who wish to nominate a candidate to their Fund’s Board should mail information to the attention of Lorna Ferguson, Manager of Fund Board Relations, Nuveen Investments, 333 West Wacker Drive, Chicago, Illinois 60606. This information must include evidence of Fund ownership of the person or entity recommending the candidate, a full listing of the proposed candidate’s education, experience, current employment, date of birth, names and addresses of at least three professional references, information as to whether the candidate is an “interested person” (as such term is defined in the 1940 Act) in relation to the Fund and such other information that would be helpful to the nominating and governance committee in evaluating the candidate. All satisfactorily completed information regarding candidates will be forwarded to the chairman of the nominating and governance committee and the outside counsel to the Independent Board Members. Recommendations for candidates to the Board will be evaluated in light of whether the number of Board members is expected to change and whether the Board expects any vacancies. All nominations from Fund shareholders will be acknowledged, although there may be times when the committee is not actively recruiting new Board members. In those circumstances nominations will be kept on file until active recruitment is under way.

The nominating and governance committee sets appropriate standards and requirements for nominations to the Board. In considering a candidate’s qualifications, each candidate must meet certain basic requirements, including relevant skills and experience, time availability and, if qualifying as an Independent Board Member candidate, independence from the Adviser or other service providers. These experience requirements may vary depending on the current composition of the Board, since the goal is to ensure an appropriate range of skills and experience, in the aggregate. All candidates must meet high expectations of personal integrity, governance experience and professional competence that are assessed on the basis of personal interviews, recommendations, or direct knowledge by committee members. The committee may use any process it deems appropriate for the purpose of evaluating candidates, which process may include, without limitation, personal interviews, background checks, written submissions by the candidates and third party references. There is no difference in the manner in which the nominating and governance committee evaluates candidates when the candidate is submitted by a shareholder. The nominating and governance committee

18

reserves the right to make the final selection regarding the nomination of any prospective Board member.

Effective July 1, 2008, Mr. Schwertfeger will no longer serve as a member on any of the committees. Effective July 1, 2008, Mr. Kundert will serve as the chair of the executive committee of each Fund. Mr. Toth will serve as a member of the dividend and the nominating and governance committees of each Fund and Mr. Amboian will serve as a member of the executive committee of each Fund.

The Independent Board Members of each Fund have appointed Robert P. Bremner as their Lead Independent Director. The role of the Lead Independent Director is one of coordination and assuring the appropriate, effective and efficient functioning of the Board and the Board processes. Specific responsibilities may include organizing and leading Independent Board Member sessions, facilitating and ensuring an appropriate level of communication among the Independent Board Members, leading the assessment of the Board’s effectiveness, and working with the Adviser’s staff and outside counsel on board meeting agendas, board material and workshops for Independent Board Members to ensure that the priorities of the Independent Board Members are addressed. Effective June 30, 2008, Mr. Bremner has been appointed Chairman of the Board and will no longer serve as the Lead Independent Director.

The number of regular quarterly meetings and special meetings held by the Board of each Fund during the Fund’s last fiscal year is shown in Appendix B. During the last fiscal year, each Board Member attended 75% or more of each Fund’s Board meetings and the committee meetings (if a member thereof) held during the period for which such Board Member was a Board Member. The policy of the Board relating to attendance by Board Members at annual meetings of the Funds and the number of Board Members who attended the last annual meeting of shareholders of each Fund is posted on the Funds’ website at www.nuveen.com/etf/products/fundgovernance.aspx.

The Current Fundamental Policies adopted by the Affected Funds reflected industry and other market conditions present at the time of the inception of each Fund.

Nuveen’s municipal closed-end funds are seeking to adopt a uniform, “up to date” set of investment policies (the “New Investment Policies”). In general, the funds currently have a somewhat diverse set of policies, reflecting when the funds were launched over the past 20 years as well as developments over time in the municipal market, including new types of

24

securities as well as investment strategies. The potential benefits to you as a fund shareholder of the New Investment Policies are:

- Enhanced ability of the Affected Funds to generate attractive levels of tax-exempt income, while retaining the Affected Funds’ orientation on investment grade quality municipal securities;

- Increased flexibility in diversifying portfolio risks and managing duration (the sensitivity of bond prices to interest rate changes) to pursue the preservation and possible growth of capital, which if successful will help to sustain and build common shareholder net asset value and asset coverage levels for preferred shares; and

- Improved secondary market competitiveness which may benefit common shareholders through higher relative market priceand/or stronger premium/discount performance.

In order to implement the New Investment Policies, each Affected Fund must make certain changes to its existing policies, including certain fundamental policies that require your vote of approval. In some cases, this may require your separate votes to approve the elimination of a Current Fundamental Policy as well as the implementation of a new, replacement fundamental policy (together, the “New Fundamental Policies” and each, a “New Fundamental Policy”). Because each Affected Fund tends to be situated somewhat differently, the specific changes required to implement the New Investment Policies often vary from fund to fund.

The primary purposes of these changes are to provide the Affected Funds with increased investment flexibility and to create consistent investment policies for all Nuveen municipal bond funds to promote operational efficiencies. Implementation of the New Fundamental Policies is contingent on shareholder approval of the elimination of the Current Fundamental Policies.

The Board has unanimously approved, and unanimously recommends the approval by shareholders of each Affected Fund, the elimination of the Current Fundamental Policies of the Affected Funds. In connection with eliminating the Current Fundamental Policies, the Board unanimously approved, and unanimously recommends the approval by shareholders of each Affected Fund, the New Fundamental Policies, described below. In addition, the Board has approved certain new non-fundamental policies, described below (the “New Non-Fundamental Policies”).

(a)  Elimination of Fundamental Policies Relating to Investments in Municipal Securities and Below Investment Grade Securities

The Current Fundamental Policies with respect to each Affected Fund’s investments in municipal securities and the ability to invest in below investment grade securities that are proposed to be eliminated are as follows:

Municipal Value

(1) The Fund will, as a fundamental policy, invest 100% of its net assets in tax-exempt Municipal Obligations, of which 80% will be Municipal Obligations rated at the

25

time of purchase within the four highest grades (Baa or BBB or better) by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. (“Moody’s”) or Standard & Poor’s Corporation (“S&P”).

(2) The Fund may invest up to 20% of its net assets in unrated Municipal Obligations or in Municipal Obligations rated lower than the four highest grades, but no more than half of this amount (10% of the Fund’s net assets) will be invested in such lower rated Municipal Obligations. The Fund will only invest in unrated Municipal Obligations which, in the opinion of the Adviser, have credit characteristics equivalent to Obligations rated Baa or BB or better. The Fund will not invest in any rated Municipal Obligations that are rated lower than Ba by Moody’s or BB by S&P at the time of purchase.

Municipal Income

(1) Except during temporary defensive periods, the Fund will, as a fundamental policy, invest 100% of its net assets in tax-exempt Municipal Obligations, of which 75% will be Municipal Obligations rated at the time of purchase within the four highest grades (Baa or BBB or better) by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. (“Moody’s”) or Standard & Poor’s Corporation (“S&P”), or unrated Municipal Obligations which, in the opinion of the Adviser, have credit characteristics equivalent to, and will be comparable quality to, Obligations rated within the four highest grades by Moody’s or S&P, provided that the Fund may not invest more than 10% of its net assets in such unrated Municipal Obligations.

(2) The Fund may invest up to 25% of its net assets in Municipal Obligations rated Ba or B by Moody’s or BB or B by S&P at the time of purchase, or in unrated Municipal Obligations that, in the Adviser’s opinion, have credit characteristics equivalent to Obligations so rated, provided that no more than 10% of the Fund’s net assets may be invested in Municipal Obligations rated B by Moody’s or B by S&P, or their unrated equivalents. The Fund will not invest in Municipal Obligations that are not rated at least B by either Moody’s or S&P.

Premium Income, Performance Plus, Municipal Advantage, Municipal Market Opportunity, Investment Quality, Select Quality, Quality Income, Premier Municipal, Premium Income 2 and Premium Income 4

(1) Except to the extent that the Fund buys temporary investments, the Fund will, as a fundamental policy, invest substantially all of its assets (more than 80%) in tax-exempt municipal bonds that are rated at the time of purchase within the four highest grades (Baa or BBB or better) by Moody’s or Standard & Poor’s, except that the Fund may invest up to 20% of its assets in unrated municipal bonds which, in Nuveen Advisory’s opinion, have credit characteristics equivalent to, and are of comparable quality to, municipal bonds so rated.

Dividend Advantage

(1) The Fund will invest its net assets in a diversified portfolio of municipal bonds that are exempt from regular Federal income tax. Under normal market conditions, and except for the temporary investments described below, the Fund expects to be fully invested (at least 95% of its assets) in such tax-exempt municipal bonds.

26

(2) The Fund will invest at least 80% of its net assets in investment grade quality municipal bonds rated as such at the time of investment. Investment grade quality means that such bonds are rated within the four highest grades (Baa or BBB or better) by Moody’s, S&P or Fitch or are unrated but judged to be of comparable quality by Nuveen Advisory.

(3) The Fund may invest up to 20% of its net assets in municipal bonds that are, at the time of investment, rated Ba/BB or B by Moody’s, S&P or Fitch or that are unrated but judged to be of comparable quality by Nuveen Advisory.

Dividend Advantage 2 and Dividend Advantage 3

(1) Under normal market conditions, the Fund will invest its net assets in a portfolio of municipal bonds that are exempt from regular federal income taxes. Under normal market conditions, the Fund expects to be fully invested (at least 95% of its assets) in such tax-exempt municipal bonds.

Municipal High Income

(1) Under normal circumstances, the Fund may not invest less than 80% of the Fund’s net assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes) in investments the income from which is exempt from regular federal income tax.

Select Maturities

(1) Except to the extent the Fund invests in temporary investments, as described below, the Fund will invest all of its assets in tax-exempt Municipal Obligations with effective remaining maturities of fifteen years or less rated at the time of purchase within the four highest grades (Baa/BBB or higher) by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. (“Moody’s”) or Standard & Poor’s Corporation (“S&P”), or in unrated Municipal Obligations which, in the opinion of the Adviser, have credit characteristics equivalent to, and will be of comparable quality to, Municipal Obligations rated within the four highest grades by Moody’s or S&P, provided that the Fund may not invest more than 20% of its assets in such unrated Municipal Obligations.

(2) The Fund will not invest in any rated Municipal Obligations that are rated lower than Baa by Moody’s or BBB by S&P at the time of purchase.

Select Portfolio, Select Portfolio 2 and Select Portfolio 3

(1) Except to the extent the Trust invests in temporary investments as described below, the Trust will, as a fundamental policy, invest substantially all (at least 80%) of its assets in tax-exempt Municipal Obligations rated at the time of purchase within the four highest grades (Baa or BBB or better) by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. (“Moody’s”) or Standard & Poor’s Corporation (“S&P”), or in unrated Municipal Obligations which, in the opinion of the Adviser, have credit characteristics equivalent to and will be of comparable quality to, Municipal Obligations rated within the four highest grades by Moody’s or S&P, provided that the Trust may not invest more than 20% of its assets in such unrated Municipal Obligations.

27

California Portfolio and New York Portfolio

(1) The Fund will seek to achieve its investment objective by investing substantially all of its assets in a diversified portfolio of [California/New York] long-term investment grade municipal obligations which are judged by NIAC to represent the best long-term values among those municipal obligations that satisfy the Fund’s credit quality standards.

(2) The Fund will only purchase municipal obligation rated within the four highest grades (BBB or Baa or better as rated by S&P or Moody’s, respectively), except that up to 20% of the Fund’s assets may be invested in unrated municipal obligations which, in the judgment of NIAC, are of comparable quality to those so rated.

(3) It is currently anticipated that NIAC will emphasize investments in municipal obligations that (1) are rated within the three highest investment grades by Moody’s or S&P and (2) on average, may not be redeemed at the option of the issuer thereof for approximately seven to eight years from the date of purchase by the Insured Fund.

(b)  Approval of New Fundamental Policies Relating to Investments in Municipal Securities

The following New Fundamental Policies will replace each Affected Fund’s Current Fundamental Policy (1) referenced in 2(a) above. Implementation of the following New Fundamental Policy by each Affected Fund is contingent on shareholder approval of the elimination of each Affected Fund’s Current Fundamental Policy. The proposed New Fundamental Policy with respect to each Fund’s investments in municipal securities is as follows:

All Affected Funds except Select Maturities, California Portfolio and New York Portfolio

Under normal circumstances, the Fund will invest at least 80% of its net assets, including assets attributable to any principal amount of any borrowings (including the issuance of commercial paper or notes) or any preferred shares outstanding (“Managed Assets”) in municipal securities and other related investments, the income from which is exempt from regular federal income tax.

Select Maturities

Under normal circumstances, the Fund will invest at least 80% of its net assets, including assets attributable to any principal amount of any borrowings (including the issuance of commercial paper or notes) or any preferred shares outstanding (“Managed Assets”) in municipal securities and other related investments, the income from which is exempt from regular federal income tax. Under normal circumstances, the Fund will invest at least 80% of its Managed Assets in municipal securities with effective remaining maturities of fifteen years or less at the time of purchase.

California Portfolio

Under normal circumstances, the Fund will invest at least 80% of its net assets, including assets attributable to any principal amount of any borrowings (including the issuance of commercial paper or notes) or any preferred shares outstanding (“Managed

28

Assets”) in municipal securities and other related investments, the income from which is exempt from regular federal and California income taxes.

New York Portfolio

Under normal circumstances, the Fund will invest at least 80% of its net assets, including assets attributable to any principal amount of any borrowings (including the issuance of commercial paper or notes) or any preferred shares outstanding (“Managed Assets”) in municipal securities and other related investments, the income from which is exempt from regular federal and New York income taxes.

In addition, with respect to each Fund’s ability to invest in below investment grade securities, the Board has adopted New Non-Fundamental Policies to be implemented upon the elimination of the Current Fundamental Policies described in 2(a) above. The New Non-Fundamental Policies relating to investing in below investment grade securities are as follows:

All Affected Funds except Municipal High Income, Dividend Advantage 2 and Dividend Advantage 3

Under normal circumstances, the Fund will invest at least 80% of its Managed Assets in investment grade securities that, at the time of investment, are rated within the four highest grades (Baa or BBB or better) by at least one nationally recognized statistical rating organization or are unrated but judged to be of comparable quality by the Fund’s investment adviser (“NAM”).

The Fund may invest up to 20% of its Managed Assets in municipal securities that at the time of investment are rated below investment grade or are unrated but judged to be of comparable quality by NAM.

No more than 10% of the Fund’s Managed Assets may be invested in municipal securities rated below B3/B- or that are unrated but judged to be of comparable quality by NAM.

Related to these changes, the Board of each Affected Fund has also amended and standardized the description of “municipal securities” or “municipal obligations” that an Affected Fund may invest in to include various types of municipal securities. The new description, tailored as appropriate to each Affected Fund, generally provides:

The Fund may invest in various municipal securities, including municipal bonds and notes, other securities issued to finance and refinance public projects, and other related securities and derivative instruments creating exposure to municipal bonds, notes and securities that provide for the payment of interest income that is exempt from federal [and [Name of State]] income tax[es] (“Municipal Obligations”). Municipal Obligations are generally debt obligations issued [by state and local governmental entities and may be issued by U.S. territories] to finance or refinance public projects such as roads, schools, and water supply systems. Municipal Obligations may also be issued for private activities, such as housing, medical and educational facility construction, or for privately owned transportation, electric utility and pollution control projects. Municipal Obligations may be issued on a long term basis to provide permanent financing. The repayment of such debt may be secured generally by a pledge of the full faith and credit taxing power of the issuer, a limited or special tax, or any other revenue source including project revenues,

29

which may include tolls, fees and other user charges, lease payments, and mortgage payments. Municipal Obligations may also be issued to finance projects on a short term interim basis, anticipating repayment with the proceeds on long term debt. Municipal Obligations may be issued and purchased in the form of bonds, notes, leases or certificates of participation; structured as callable or non-callable; with payment forms including fixed coupon, variable rate, zero coupon, capital appreciation bonds, tender option bonds, and residual interest bonds or inverse floating rate securities; or acquired through investments in pooled vehicles, partnerships or other investment companies. Inverse floating rate securities are securities that pay interest at rates that vary inversely with changes in prevailing short-term tax-exempt interest rates and represent a leveraged investment in an underlying municipal security, which may increase the effective leverage of the Fund.

(c)   Elimination of the Fundamental Policy Relating to Investing in Other Investment Companies

The Current Fundamental Policies relating to investments in other investment companies that are proposed to be eliminated are as follows:

Municipal Value

The Fund may not invest in securities other than Municipal Obligations and temporary investments, as described in “Investment Objective and Policies — Portfolio Investments.”

30

The Fund may invest up to 10% of its Managed Assets in securities of other open- or closed-end investment companies (including exchange-traded funds (often referred to as “ETFs”)) that invest primarily in municipal securities of the types in which the Fund may invest directly.

(d)  Elimination of Fundamental Policies Relating to Derivatives, Short Sales and Commodities

The Current Fundamental Policies relating to derivatives, short sales and commodities that are proposed to be eliminated are as follows:

Municipal Value

(1) The Fund may not make short sales of securities or purchase any securities on margin (except for such short-term credits as are necessary for the clearance of transactions), or write or purchase put or call options, except to the extent that the purchase of a standby commitment may be considered the purchase of a put, and except for transactions involving options within the limits described under “Certain Trading Strategies of the Fund — Financial Futures and Options Transactions.”

(2) The Fund may not purchase or sell commodities or commodities contracts, except for transactions involving futures contracts within the limits described under “Certain Trading Strategies of the Fund — Financial Futures and Options Transactions.”

Municipal Income

(2) The Fund may not purchase or sell commodities or commodities contracts, except for transactions involving futures contracts within the limits described herein.

Premium Income

(1) The Fund may not make short sales of securities or purchase any securities on margin (except for such short-term credits as are necessary for the clearance of transactions), or write or purchase put or call options, except for transactions involving options within the limits described under “Certain Trading Strategies of the Fund — Financial Futures and Options Transactions.”

(2) The Fund may not purchase financial futures and options except within the limits described in “Certain Trading Strategies of the Fund — Financial Futures and Options Transactions.”

31

(3) The Fund may not purchase or sell commodities or commodities contracts, except for transactions involving futures contracts within the limits described under “Certain Trading Strategies of the Fund — Financial Futures and Options Transactions.”

Performance Plus, Municipal Advantage, Municipal Market Opportunity, Investment Quality, Select Quality, Quality Income, Premier Municipal, Premium Income 2 and Premium Income 4

(1) The Fund may not make short sales of securities or purchase any securities on margin (except for such short-term credits as are necessary for the clearance of transactions), or write or purchase put or call options, except to the extent that the purchase of a standby commitment may be considered the purchase of a put, and except for transactions involving options within the limits described under “Certain Trading Strategies of the Fund — Financial Futures and Options Transactions.”

(3) The Fund may not purchase or sell commodities or commodities contracts, except for transactions involving futures contracts within the limits described under “Certain Trading Strategies of the Fund — Financial Futures and Options Transactions.”

Select Maturities

(1) The Fund may not make short sales of securities or purchase any securities on margin (except for such short-term credits as are necessary for the clearance of transactions), or write or purchase put or call options, except to the extent that the purchase of a stand-by commitment may be considered the purchase of a put.

(2) The Fund may not purchase financial futures and options.

(3) The Fund may not purchase or sell commodities or commodity contracts.

Select Portfolio, Select Portfolio 2, Select Portfolio 3, California Portfolio and New York Portfolio

(1) The Fund may not make short sales of securities or purchase any securities on margin (except for such short-term credits as are necessary for the clearance of transactions), or write or purchase put or call options, except to the extent that the purchase of a stand-by commitment may be considered the purchase of a put.

(2) The Fund may not purchase or sell futures contracts or options on futures.

In connection with the elimination of the Current Fundamental Policies relating to derivatives and short sales; the Board has adopted the following New Non-Fundamental Policies for each of the above Affected Funds. The New Non-Fundamental Policies are contingent on shareholder approval of the elimination of that Affected Fund’s Current Fundamental

32

Policies with respect to derivatives and short sales. The New Non-Fundamental Polices are as follows:

(1) The Fund may invest in derivative instruments in pursuit of its investment objectives. Such instruments include financial futures contracts, swap contracts (including interest rate and credit default swaps), options on financial futures, options on swap contracts, or other derivative instruments. NAM uses derivatives to seek to enhance return, to hedge some of the risks of its investments in fixed income securities or as a substitute for a position in the underlying asset.

(2) The Fund may not sell securities short, unless the Fund owns or has the right to obtain securities equivalent in kind and amount to the securities sold at no added cost, and provided that transactions in options, futures contracts, options on futures contracts, or other derivative instruments are not deemed to constitute selling securities short.

(3) The Fund may not enter in futures contracts or related options or forward contracts, if more than 30% of the Fund’s net assets would be represented by futures contracts or more than 5% of the Fund’s net assets would be committed to initial margin deposits and premiums on futures contracts and related options.

(e)  Approval of New Fundamental Policy Relating to Commodities

It is proposed that each of the Affected Funds referenced in 2(d) above adopt a New Fundamental Policy with respect to commodities. The adoption of the following New Fundamental Policy for each of those Affected Funds other than Select Portfolio, Select Portfolio 2, Select Portfolio 3, California Portfolio and New York Portfolio is contingent on shareholder approval of the elimination of that Affected Fund’s Current Fundamental Policy with respect to commodities. The proposed New Fundamental Policy is as follows:

The Fund may not purchase or sell physical commodities unless acquired as a result of ownership of securities or other instruments (but this shall not prevent the Fund from purchasing or selling options, futures contracts, derivative instruments or from investing in securities or other instruments backed by physical commodities).

Board Recommendation

The Board believes that eliminating the Current Fundamental Policies and adopting the New Investment Policies gives the Adviser flexibility to rapidly respond to continuing developments in the municipal market and would enhance the portfolio managers’ ability to meet each Affected Fund’s investment objective. In addition, the Board believes that the proposed changes will create consistent investment policies for all Nuveen municipal bond funds and will help to promote operational efficiencies.

The Board of Trustees recommends that shareholders of each Affected Fund vote to approve the elimination of each Current Fundamental Policy and vote to approve each New Fundamental Policy.

Audit Committee Report

The audit committee of each Board is responsible for the oversight and monitoring of (1) the accounting and reporting policies, processes and practices, and the audit of the financial statements, of each Fund, and (2) the quality and integrity of the Fund’s financial statements, and (3) the independent registered public accounting firm’s qualifications, performance and independence. In its oversight capacity, the committee reviews each Fund’s annual financial statements with both management and the independent registered public accounting firm and the committee meets periodically with the independent registered public accounting firm and internal auditors to consider their evaluation of each Fund’s financial and internal controls. The committee also selects, retains, evaluates and may replace each Fund’s independent registered public accounting firm. The committee is currently composed of five Board Members and operates under a written charter adopted and approved by each Board, a copy of which is attached as Appendix C. Each committee member meets the independence and experience requirements, as applicable, of the New York Stock Exchange, American Stock Exchange, Section 10A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The committee, in discharging its duties, has met with and held discussions with management and each Fund’s independent registered public accounting firm. The committee has also reviewed and discussed the audited financial statements with management. Management has represented to the independent registered public accounting firm that each Fund’s financial statements were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The committee has also discussed with the independent registered public accounting firm the matters required to be discussed by Statement on Auditing Standards (“SAS”) No. 61 (Communication with Audit Committees), as amended by SAS No. 90 (Audit Committee Communications). Each Fund’s independent registered public accounting firm provided to the committee the written disclosure required by Independence Standards Board Standard No. 1 (Independence Discussions with Audit Committees), and the committee discussed with representatives of the independent registered public accounting firm their firm’s independence. As provided in the Audit Committee Charter, it is not the committee’s responsibility to determine, and the considerations and discussions referenced above do not ensure, that each Fund’s financial statements are complete and accurate and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

Based on the committee’s review and discussions with management and the independent registered public accounting firm, the representations of management and the report of the independent registered public accounting firm to the committee, the committee has recommended that the Boards include the audited financial statements in each Fund’s Annual Report.

The current members of the committee are:

Robert P. Bremner

Jack B. Evans

David J. Kundert

William J. Schneider

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

For engagements with each Fund’s independent registered public accounting firm entered into on or after May 6, 2003, the audit committee approved in advance all audit services and non-audit services that the independent registered public accounting firm provided to each Fund and to the Adviser and Adviser Entities (with respect to the operations and financial reporting of each Fund). None of the services rendered by the independent registered accounting firm to each Fund or the Adviser or Adviser Entities were pre-approved by the audit committee pursuant to the pre-approval exception under Rule 2.01(c)(7)(i)(C) or Rule 2.01(c)(7)(ii) ofRegulation S-X.

A list of shareholders entitled to be present and to vote at each Annual Meeting will be available at the offices of the Funds, 333 West Wacker Drive, Chicago, Illinois, for inspection by any shareholder during regular business hours beginning ten days prior to the date of the Annual Meeting.

Failure of a quorum to be present at any Annual Meeting will necessitate adjournment and will subject that Fund to additional expense. The persons named in the enclosed proxy may also move for an adjournment of any Annual Meeting to permit further solicitation of proxies with respect to the proposal if they determine that adjournment and further solicitation is reasonable and in the best interests of the shareholders. Under each Fund’s By-Laws, an adjournment of a meeting requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting.

IF YOU CANNOT BE PRESENT AT THE MEETING, YOU ARE REQUESTED TO FILL IN, SIGN AND RETURN THE ENCLOSED PROXY PROMPTLY. NO POSTAGE IS REQUIRED IF MAILED IN THE UNITED STATES.

APPENDIX C

NUVEEN FUND BOARD

AUDIT COMMITTEE CHARTER

I.   Organization and Membership

There shall be a committee of each Board of Directors/Trustees (the “Board”) of the Nuveen Management Investment Companies (the “Funds” or, individually, a “Fund”) to be known as the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee shall be comprised of at least three Directors/Trustees. Audit Committee members shall be independent of the Funds and free of any relationship that, in the opinion of the Directors/Trustees, would interfere with their exercise of independent judgment as an Audit Committee member. In particular, each member must meet the independence and experience requirements applicable to the Funds of the exchanges on which shares of the Funds are listed, Section 10a of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”). Each such member of the Audit Committee shall have a basic understanding of finance and accounting, be able to read and understand fundamental financial statements, and be financially literate, and at least one such member shall have accounting or related financial management expertise, in each case as determined by the Directors/Trustees, exercising their business judgment (this person may also serve as the Audit Committee’s “financial expert” as defined by the Commission). The Board shall appoint the members and the Chairman of the Audit Committee, on the recommendation of the Nominating and Governance Committee. The Audit Committee shall meet periodically but in any event no less frequently than on a semi-annual basis. Except for the Funds, Audit Committee members shall not serve simultaneously on the audit committees of more than two other public companies.

II.   Statement of Policy, Purpose and Processes

The Audit Committee shall assist the Board in oversight and monitoring of (1) the accounting and reporting policies, processes and practices, and the audits of the financial statements, of the Funds; (2) the quality and integrity of the financial statements of the Funds; (3) the Funds’ compliance with legal and regulatory requirements, (4) the independent auditors’ qualifications, performance and independence; and (5) oversight of the Pricing Procedures of the Funds and the Valuation Group. In exercising this oversight, the Audit Committee can request other committees of the Board to assume responsibility for some of the monitoring as long as the other committees are composed exclusively of independent directors.

In doing so, the Audit Committee shall seek to maintain free and open means of communication among the Directors/Trustees, the independent auditors, the internal auditors and the management of the Funds. The Audit Committee shall meet periodically with Fund management, the Funds’ internal auditor, and the Funds’ independent auditors, in separate executive sessions. The Audit Committee shall prepare reports of the Audit Committee as required by the Commission to be included in the Fund’s annual proxy statements or otherwise.

The Audit Committee shall have the authority and resources in its discretion to retain special legal, accounting or other consultants to advise the Audit Committee and to otherwise discharge its responsibilities, including appropriate funding as determined by the Audit Committee for compensation to independent auditors engaged for the purpose of

C-1

preparing or issuing an audit report or performing other audit, review or attest services for a Fund, compensation to advisers employed by the Audit Committee, and ordinary administrative expenses of the Audit Committee that are necessary or appropriate in carrying out its duties, as determined in its discretion. The Audit Committee may request any officer or employee of Nuveen Investments, Inc. (or its affiliates) (collectively, “Nuveen”) or the Funds’ independent auditors or outside counsel to attend a meeting of the Audit Committee or to meet with any members of, or consultants to, the Audit Committee. The Funds’ independent auditors and internal auditors shall have unrestricted accessibility at any time to Committee members.

Responsibilities

Fund management has the primary responsibility to establish and maintain systems for accounting, reporting, disclosure and internal control.

The independent auditors have the primary responsibility to plan and implement an audit, with proper consideration given to the accounting, reporting and internal controls. Each independent auditor engaged for the purpose of preparing or issuing an audit report or performing other audit, review or attest services for the Funds shall report directly to the Audit Committee. The independent auditors are ultimately accountable to the Board and the Audit Committee. It is the ultimate responsibility of the Audit Committee to select, appoint, retain, evaluate, oversee and replace any independent auditors and to determine their compensation, subject to ratification of the Board, if required. These Audit Committee responsibilities may not be delegated to any other Committee or the Board.
