Schwertfeger Timothy R. Schwertfeger Chairman of the Board June 16, 2003 1 Nuveen Municipal Closed-End Exchange-Traded Funds (NQM, NQS, NQU, NPF) Portfolio Manager's COMMENTS Portfolio manager Tom Spalding reviews economic and market conditions, key investment strategies, and the recent performance of these Nuveen National Funds. Tom has 27 years of investment experience at Nuveen, and he assumed portfolio management responsibility for NQM, NQS, NQU, and NPF in January 2003. WHAT FACTORS AFFECTED THE U.S. ECONOMY AND MUNICIPAL MARKET DURING THE PERIOD ENDED APRIL 30, 2003? The underlying economic and market conditions have not changed much since our last shareholder report dated October 31, 2002. We believe the most influential factors shaping the U.S. economy and the municipal market during this reporting period continued to be the sluggish pace of economic growth and interest rates that remained at 40-year lows. At the same time, continued geopolitical concerns, centering on the ongoing threat of terrorism and the situation in Iraq, also had an impact during this reporting period, particularly in terms of investor sentiment. In the municipal market, the slow economic recovery and the continued lack of inflationary pressures created conditions that helped many bonds perform well during this reporting period. As of April 2003, inflation was running at 1.5% annualized, the lowest annual rate in 37 years. Following a record year in 2002, municipal issuance nationwide remained very heavy during the first four months of 2003, with $113.5 billion in new municipal bonds coming to market, an increase of 21% over the same period in 2002. Despite the large supply of new municipal bonds, firm or improving prices indicated continued strong demand from investors. In particular, institutional investors such as property/casualty insurance companies, hedge funds, arbitrage accounts and pension funds were active buyers in the municipal market over much of this reporting period. HOW DID THESE FUNDS PERFORM OVER THE TWELVE-MONTH PERIOD ENDED APRIL 30, 2003? Individual results for these Funds, as well as for appropriate benchmarks, are presented in the accompanying table. TOTAL RETURN LEHMAN LIPPER MARKET YIELD ON NAV TOTAL RETURN1 AVERAGE2 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 1 YEAR 1 YEAR 1 YEAR TAXABLE- ENDED ENDED ENDED 4/30/03 EQUIVALENT3 4/30/03 4/30/03 4/30/03 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ NQM 6.50% 9.29% 11.43% 8.49% 10.27% - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ NQS 6.67% 9.53% 11.01% 8.49% 10.27% - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ NQU 6.65% 9.50% 8.37% 8.49% 10.27% - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ NPF 6.61% 9.44% 13.33% 8.49% 10.27% - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Past performance is not predictive of future results. For additional information, see the individual Performance Overview for your Fund in this report. For the twelve months ended April 30, 2003, NQM, NQS, and NPF outperformed both the unleveraged, unmanaged Lehman Brothers Municipal Bond Index and their Lipper Fund peer group average. Over this same period, NQU 1 The total annual returns on common share net asset value (NAV) for these Funds are compared with the total annual return of the Lehman Brothers Municipal Bond Index, an unleveraged index comprising a broad range of investment-grade municipal bonds. Results for the Lehman index do not reflect any expenses. 2 The total returns of these Nuveen Funds are compared with the average annualized return of the 58 funds in the Lipper General Leveraged Municipal Debt Funds category. Fund and Lipper returns assume reinvestment of dividends. 3 The taxable-equivalent yield represents the yield that must be earned on a taxable investment in order to equal the yield of the Nuveen Fund on an after-tax basis. The taxable-equivalent yield is based on the Fund's market yield on the indicated date and a federal income tax rate of 30%. 2 performed in line with the Lehman index, but underperformed the Lipper average. Much of this outperformance relative to the Lehman Index is attributable to the Funds' leveraged capital structures and to their relatively long durations4. While leverage adds volatility to a Fund, it can enhance the amount of income paid to common shareholders, especially during a period of low short-term interest rates as was the case during the twelve-month period. The Funds' performances compared with the Lehman index also was helped by their relatively long durations. Duration is a measure of sensitivity to changes in interest rates, and, generally, the longer the duration, the more the price of an investment will react to a change in prevailing interest rates. In a time of generally declining interest rates, as was the case during much of the twelve-month period, longer duration investments would be expected to outperform shorter duration investments, all other things being equal. The durations of the four Funds as of April 30, 2003, ranged from 9.25 to 13.16, compared with 7.84 for the Lehman index. Although NQU benefited from both leverage and duration positioning during the twelve-month period, its total return performance was impacted negatively by its holdings of bonds backed by American Airlines. Over the past year, the market value of most airline-backed bonds fell, due in part to a decline in passenger volume and in part to the well-documented financial struggles of the industry's larger carriers. As of April 30, 2003, NQU held $47.1 million par value, or 3.8% of its portfolio, in airline-backed bonds, and their depreciation over the twelve-month period cost the Fund approximately 475 basis points in total return performance. HOW DID THE MARKET ENVIRONMENT AFFECT THE FUNDS' DIVIDENDS AND SHARE PRICES? With short-term interest rates at historically low levels, the dividend-payment capabilities of these Funds benefited from their use of leverage. The amount of this benefit is tied in part to the short-term rates the Funds pay their MuniPreferred, shareholders. Low short-term rates can enable the Funds to reduce the amount of income they pay MuniPreferred holders, which potentially can leave more earnings to support common share dividends. During the twelve months ended April 30, 2003, the continued low level of short-term interest rates enabled us to implement four dividend increases in NQM, three in NQS and NQU, and two in NPF. Over the course of this twelve-month period, strong demand and favorable market conditions helped to boost the share prices of all four Funds. Since their 4 Duration is a measure of a Fund's NAV volatility in reaction to interest rate movements. Fund duration, also known as leverage-adjusted duration, takes into account the leveraging process for a Fund and therefore is generally longer than the duration of the actual portfolio of individual bonds that make up the Fund. References to duration in this commentary are intended to indicate Fund duration unless otherwise noted. 3 NAVs also increased, these Funds continued to trade at a discount to their common share net asset values as of April 30, 2003 (see charts on individual Performance Overview pages). WHAT KEY STRATEGIES WERE USED TO MANAGE THESE FUNDS DURING THE PERIOD ENDED APRIL 30, 2003? Over the reporting period, we continued to place strong emphasis on diversifying the Funds' portfolios, enhancing call protection and supporting their future dividend-paying capabilities. Strategically, our main focus centered on systematically shortening the Funds' durations, which we believe will help us better control the Funds' interest rate risk over time and enhance their ability to produce consistent returns. Interest rate risk is the risk that the value of a Fund's portfolio will decline when market interest rates rise (since bond prices move in the opposite direction of interest rates). The longer the duration of a Fund's portfolio, the greater its interest rate risk. In line with our moderated duration strategy, we concentrated on finding value in the long-intermediate part of the yield curve (i.e., bonds that mature in about 20 years). In many cases, these long-intermediate bonds were offering yields similar to those of longer bonds but had less inherent interest rate risk. Over the period, the purchase of bonds in this part of the curve helped to shorten the durations of these Funds, making their portfolios less sensitive to any changes in the interest rate environment while still allowing them to provide competitive yields. In general, the heavy issuance in the municipal market over the past year provided us with increased opportunities to purchase the types of bond structures that we favor. We also continued to look for individual issues that we believed would perform well regardless of the future direction of interest rates. Overall, we emphasized undervalued sectors of the market and geographical areas with healthy levels of issuance, such as Texas and Florida. NQM, NQS and NQU also remained heavily weighted in healthcare bonds, the top performing group among the Lehman revenue sectors for the twelve months ended April 30, 2003. Each of these Funds held modest positions (less than 5% of its portfolio) in bonds backed by the 1998 Master Tobacco Settlement Agreement. Over the past five years, fourteen states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, Guam, New York City, and individual counties in California and 4 New York have issued almost $20 billion of tobacco securitization bonds backed by this agreement. In recent months, the prices of these bonds weakened as the result of lawsuits involving the major tobacco companies as well as the increased issuance of such bonds by states planning to use the proceeds to help close budget gaps. Although the sector as a whole produced negative returns over the twelve-month period, tobacco bonds showed some recovery toward the end of the period. Given the current geopolitical and economic climate, we believe that maintaining strong credit quality remains a vital requirement, and we continued to emphasize higher rated and insured bonds in our recent purchases for the Funds. As of April 30, 2003, each of these Funds offered excellent credit quality, with allocations of bonds rated AAA/U.S. guaranteed and AA ranging from 76% to 86%. In general, our weightings in higher quality and insured bonds benefited the performance of these Funds during the past year. WHAT IS YOUR OUTLOOK FOR THE MUNICIPAL MARKET IN GENERAL AND THESE FUNDS IN PARTICULAR? We think new issuance volume should remain strong, as issuers continue to take advantage of the low rate environment. Adding to our expectations for continued strong issuance are the budget deficits affecting many states, and their continued need to raise money for infrastructure, education and healthcare needs. Over coming months, we will continue to closely monitor the states' budgetary situations to watch for any potential impact on credit ratings. Looking ahead at the bond call exposure, we believe these Funds offer good levels of call protection during the remainder of 2003 and through 2004. As of April 30, 2003, the percentage of bonds eligible for calls among the four Funds ranged from 5% to 8% in 2003 and from 1% to 9% in 2004. The number of actual calls during this time will depend largely on market interest rates and the specific situations of individual issuers. In the coming months, our primary goal will continue to be moderating the Funds' durations. In addition, we plan to watch for opportunities to purchase or swap for issues that we perceive to be undervalued, particularly in sectors of the market that have recently underperformed. The expected strong supply of new bonds should help us in this effort. 5 Nuveen Investment Quality Municipal Fund, Inc.

GENERAL INFORMATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The National Funds (the "Funds") covered in this report and their corresponding Common Share New York Stock Exchange symbols are Nuveen Investment Quality Municipal Fund, Inc. (NQM), Nuveen Select Quality Municipal Fund, Inc. (NQS), Nuveen Quality Income Municipal Fund, Inc. (NQU) and Nuveen Premier Municipal Income Fund, Inc. (NPF). The Funds are registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as closed-end, diversified management investment companies. Each Fund seeks to provide current income exempt from regular federal income tax by investing primarily in a diversified portfolio of municipal obligations issued by state and local government authorities. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Funds in the preparation of their financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Securities Valuation The prices of municipal bonds in each Fund's investment portfolio are provided by a pricing service approved by the Fund's Board of Directors. When price quotes are not readily available (which is usually the case for municipal securities), the pricing service establishes fair market value based on yields or prices of municipal bonds of comparable quality, type of issue, coupon, maturity and rating, indications of value from securities dealers and general market conditions. If it is determined that market prices for a security are unavailable or inappropriate, the Board of Directors of the Funds, or its designee, may establish a fair value for the security. Temporary investments in securities that have variable rate and demand features qualifying them as short-term securities are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. Securities Transactions Securities transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Realized gains and losses from such transactions are determined on the specific identification method. Securities purchased or sold on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis may have extended settlement periods. The securities 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 and delayed delivery purchase commitments. At April 30, 2003, the Funds had no such outstanding purchase commitments. Investment Income Interest income, which includes the amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts for financial reporting purposes, is recorded on an accrual basis. Federal Income Taxes Each Fund is a separate taxpayer for federal income tax purposes. Each Fund intends to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute all of its net investment income to its shareholders. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required. Furthermore, each Fund intends to satisfy conditions which will enable interest from municipal securities, which is exempt from regular federal income tax, to retain such tax-exempt status when distributed to shareholders of the Funds. 43 Notes to FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (continued) Dividends and Distributions to Common Shareholders Dividends from tax-exempt net investment income are declared and paid monthly. Net realized capital gains and/or market discount from investment transactions, if any, are distributed to shareholders not less frequently than annually. Furthermore, capital gains are distributed only to the extent they exceed available capital loss carryforwards. Distributions to Common shareholders of tax-exempt net investment income, net realized capital gains and/or market discount, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The amount and timing of distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Preferred Shares The Funds have issued and outstanding $25,000 stated value Preferred shares. Each Fund's Preferred shares are issued in more than one Series. The dividend rate on each Series may change every seven days, as set pursuant to a dutch auction process by the auction agent, and is payable at or near the end of each rate period. The number of Preferred shares outstanding, by Series and in total, for each Fund is as follows: INVESTMENT SELECT QUALITY PREMIER QUALITY QUALITY INCOME INCOME (NQM) (NQS) (NQU) (NPF) - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Number of shares: Series M 2,500 2,000 3,000 1,000 Series T 2,500 2,000 3,000 2,800 Series W 2,500 2,800 3,000 -- Series W2 -- -- 2,080 -- Series TH 2,040 1,560 4,000 2,800 Series F 2,500 2,800 3,000 -- - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total 12,040 11,160 18,080 6,600 ========================================================================================================= 44 Derivative Financial Instruments The Funds may invest in certain derivative financial instruments including futures, forward, swap and option contracts, and other financial instruments with similar characteristics. Although the Funds are authorized to invest in such financial instruments, and may do so in the future, they did not make any such investments during the six months ended April 30, 2003. Custodian Fee Credit Each Fund has an arrangement with the custodian bank whereby certain custodian fees and expenses are reduced by credits earned on each Fund's cash on deposit with the bank. Such deposit arrangements are an alternative to overnight investments. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets applicable to Common shares from operations during the reporting period. Actual results may differ from those estimates. 2. FUND SHARES None of the Funds engaged in transactions in their own shares during the six months ended April 30, 2003, nor during the fiscal year ended October 31, 2002. 3. SECURITIES TRANSACTIONS Purchases and sales (including maturities) of investments in long-term municipal securities during the six months ended April 30, 2003, were as follows: INVESTMENT SELECT QUALITY PREMIER QUALITY QUALITY INCOME INCOME (NQM) (NQS) (NQU) (NPF) - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Purchases $2,345,312 $58,371,159 $86,464,214 $15,741,850 Sales and maturities 8,911,800 64,696,090 80,509,235 19,034,852 ========================================================================================================= 45 Notes to FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (continued) 4. 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 income on taxable market discount securities and timing differences in recognizing certain gains and losses on security transactions.

If not applied, the carryforward will expire in the year 2010. 5. MANAGEMENT FEE AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES Under the Funds' investment management agreements with Nuveen Advisory Corp. (the "Adviser"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Nuveen Investments, Inc. (formerly, The John Nuveen Company), each Fund pays an annual management fee, payable monthly, at the rates set forth below, which are based upon the average daily net assets (including net assets attributable to Preferred shares) of each Fund as follows: AVERAGE DAILY NET ASSETS (INCLUDING NET ASSETS ATTRIBUTABLE TO PREFERRED SHARES) MANAGEMENT FEE - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- For the first $125 million .6500 of 1% For the next $125 million .6375 of 1 For the next $250 million .6250 of 1 For the next $500 million .6125 of 1 For the next $1 billion .6000 of 1 For the next $3 billion .5875 of 1 For net assets over $5 billion .5750 of 1 ================================================================================ The management fee compensates the Adviser for overall investment advisory and administrative services and general office facilities.

A PHONE CALL IS ALL IT TAKES TO SET UP YOUR REINVESTMENT ACCOUNT. NUVEEN CLOSED-END EXCHANGE-TRADED FUNDS DIVIDEND REINVESTMENT PLAN Your Nuveen Closed-End Exchange-Traded Fund allows you to conveniently reinvest dividends and/or capital gains distributions in additional fund shares. By choosing to reinvest, you'll be able to invest money regularly and automatically, and watch your investment grow through the power of tax-free compounding. Just like dividends or distributions in cash, there may be times when income or capital gains taxes may be payable on dividends or distributions that are reinvested. It is important to note that an automatic reinvestment plan does not ensure a profit, nor does it protect you against loss in a declining market. EASY AND CONVENIENT To make recordkeeping easy and convenient, each month you'll receive a statement showing your total dividends and distributions, the date of investment, the shares acquired and the price per share, and the total number of shares you own. HOW SHARES ARE PURCHASED The shares you acquire by reinvesting will either be purchased on the open market or newly issued by the Fund. If the shares are trading at or above net asset value at the time of valuation, the Fund will issue new shares at the then-current market price. If the shares are trading at less than net asset value, shares for your account will be purchased on the open market. Dividends and distributions received to purchase shares in the open market will normally be invested shortly after the dividend payment date. No interest will be paid on dividends and distributions awaiting reinvestment. Because the market price of shares may increase before purchases are completed, the average purchase price per share may exceed the market price at the time of valuation, resulting in the acquisition of fewer shares than if the dividend or distribution had been paid in shares issued by the Fund. A pro rata portion of any applicable brokerage commissions on open market purchases will be paid by Plan participants. These commissions usually will be lower than those charged on individual transactions. FLEXIBILITY You may change your distribution option or withdraw from the Plan at any time, should your needs or situation change. Should you withdraw, you can receive a certificate for all whole shares credited to your reinvestment account and cash payment for fractional shares, or cash payment for all reinvestment account shares, less brokerage commissions and a $2.50 service fee. You can reinvest whether your shares are registered in your name, or in the name of a brokerage firm, bank, or other nominee. Ask your investment advisor if his or her firm will participate on your behalf. Participants whose shares are registered in the name of one firm may not be able to transfer the shares to another firm and continue to participate in the Plan. The Fund reserves the right to amend or terminate the Plan at any time. Although the Fund reserves the right to amend the Plan to include a service charge payable by the participants, there is no direct service charge to participants in the Plan at this time. For more information on the Nuveen Automatic Reinvestment Plan or to enroll in or withdraw from the Plan, speak with your financial advisor or call us at (800) 257-8787. 52 Fund INFORMATION BOARD OF DIRECTORS Robert P. Bremner Lawrence H. Brown Anne E. Impellizzeri Peter R. Sawers William J. Schneider Timothy R. Schwertfeger Judith M. Stockdale FUND MANAGER Nuveen Advisory Corp. 333 West Wacker Drive Chicago, IL 60606 CUSTODIAN State Street Bank & Trust Boston, MA TRANSFER AGENT AND SHAREHOLDER SERVICES State Street Bank & Trust Nuveen Funds P.O. Box 43071 Providence, RI 02940-3071 (800) 257-8787 LEGAL COUNSEL Morgan, Lewis & Bockius LLP Washington, D.C. INDEPENDENT AUDITORS Ernst & Young LLP Chicago, IL POLICY CHANGE On November 14, 2002, the Board adopted a policy that allows these Funds, in addition to investments in municipal bonds, to invest up to 5% of its net assets (including assets attributable to preferred shares, if any) in tax-exempt or taxable fixed-income securities or equity securities for the purpose of acquiring control of an issuer whose municipal bonds (a) the Fund already owns and (b) have deteriorated or are expected shortly to deteriorate significantly in credit quality, provided Nuveen Advisory determines that such investment should enable the Fund to better maximize the value of its existing investment in such issuer. This policy is a non-fundamental policy of each Fund which means that it can be changed at any time by the Board of Trustees without vote of the shareholders. GLOSSARY OF TERMS USED IN THIS REPORT Average Annual Total Return: This is a commonly used method to express an investment's performance over a particular, usually multi-year time period. It expresses the return (including change in NAV and reinvested dividends) that would have been necessary on an annual basis to equal the investment's actual performance over the time period being considered. Average Effective Maturity: The average of all the maturities of the bonds in a fund's portfolio, computed by weighting each maturity date (the date the security comes due) by the market value of the security. This figure does not account for the likelihood of prepayments or the exercise of call provisions. Leverage-Adjusted Duration: Duration is a measure of a bond or bond fund's sensitivity to changes in interest rates. Generally, the longer a bond or fund's duration, the more the price of the bond or fund will change as interest rates change. Leverage-adjusted duration takes into account the leveraging process for a Fund and therefore is generally longer than the duration of the actual portfolio of individual bonds that make up the Fund. Market Yield (also known as Dividend Yield or Current Yield): An investment's current annualized dividend divided by its current market price. Net Asset Value (NAV): A fund's NAV is calculated by subtracting the liabilities of the fund from its total assets and then dividing the remainder by the number of shares outstanding. Fund NAVs are calculated at the end of each business day. Taxable-Equivalent Yield: The yield necessary from a fully taxable investment to equal, on an after-tax basis, the yield of a municipal bond investment. - --------- Each Fund intends to repurchase shares of its own common or preferred stock in the future at such times and in such amounts as is deemed advisable. No shares were repurchased during the six-month period ended April 30, 2003. Any future repurchases will be reported to shareholders in the next annual or semiannual report. 53 Serving Investors FOR GENERATIONS Since 1898, financial advisors and their clients have relied on Nuveen Investments to provide dependable investment solutions.
