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 (with the exception of
Equity Premium, Equity Premium Opportunity, Equity Premium Advantage, Equity
Premium Income, Global Government, Global Value and New York Value), 33 1/3% 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 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, absentations and broker non-votes will have no
effect on the election of Board Members.

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 Preferred shareholders as a class who have
voted on the proposal or in the same proportion as the votes cast by all
Preferred shareholders 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 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
February 5, 2007 will be entitled to one vote for each share held. As of
February 5, 2007, the shares of the Funds were issued and outstanding as
follows:

ELECTION OF BOARD MEMBERS

GENERAL

MASSACHUSETTS BUSINESS TRUSTS

In February 2006, the By-Laws of each Massachusetts Business Trust were amended
to provide for the division of the Board into classes. Pursuant to the amended
By-Laws, the Board Members of each Massachusetts Business Trust classified
themselves by resolution dated November 14, 2006 into three classes, Class I,
Class II and Class III, to be elected at the Annual Meeting by the holders of
the outstanding Common Shares or Common Shares and Preferred Shares, voting
together as a single class. If elected, Class I Board Members will serve until
the third succeeding annual meeting subsequent to their election; Class II Board
Members will serve until the first succeeding annual meeting subsequent to their
election; and Class III Board Members will serve until the second succeeding
annual meeting subsequent to their election. At each subsequent annual meeting,
the Board Members chosen to succeed those whose terms are expiring shall be
identified as being of the same class as the Board Members whom they succeed and
shall be elected for a term expiring at the time of the third succeeding annual
meeting subsequent to their election or thereafter in each case when their
respective successors are duly elected and qualified. For each Massachusetts
Business Trust, except Equity Premium, Equity Premium Advantage, Equity Premium
Income, Equity Premium Opportunity, Global Government and Global Value, under
normal circumstances, holders of Preferred Shares will continue to be entitled
to elect two (2) Board Members. The Board Members elected by holders of
Preferred Shares will be elected to serve until the next annual meeting or until
their successors shall have been duly elected and qualified.

     A.  FOR EACH MASSACHUSETTS BUSINESS TRUST (EXCEPT EQUITY PREMIUM, EQUITY

At the Annual Meeting of each Minnesota Corporation, Board Members are to be
elected to serve until the next annual meeting or until their successors shall
have been duly elected and qualified. Under the terms of each Minnesota
Corporation's organizational documents (except New York Value), under normal
circumstances, holders of Preferred Shares are entitled to elect two (2) Board
Members, and the remaining Board Members are to be elected by holders of Common
Shares and Preferred Shares, voting together as a single class. Pursuant to the
organizational documents of New York Value, the Board is divided into three
classes, with each class being elected to serve until the third succeeding
annual meeting subsequent to their election or thereafter in each case when
their respective successors are duly elected and qualified. For New York Value,
four (4) Board Members are nominated to be elected at this meeting.

     D.  FOR EACH MINNESOTA CORPORATION, EXCEPT NEW YORK VALUE:

          (i) eight (8) Board Members are to be elected by holders of Common
     Shares and Preferred Shares, voting together as a single class. Board
     Members Bremner, Brown, Evans, Hunter, Kundert, Stockdale, Sunshine and
     Stone are nominees for election by all shareholders.


6



          (ii) two (2) Board Members are to be elected by holders of Preferred
     Shares, each series voting together as a single class. Board Members
     Schneider and Schwertfeger are nominees for election by holders of
     Preferred Shares.

     E.  FOR NEW YORK VALUE:  The Board of New York Value has designated Board
     Members Brown, Schwertfeger and Stone as Class I Board Members, and as
     nominees for Board Members for a term expiring at the annual meeting of
     shareholders in 2010, and has re-designated Board Member Stockdale as a
     Class I Board Member, and as a nominee for Board Member for a term expiring
     at the annual meeting of shareholders in 2010, and until their successors
     have been duly elected and qualified. The Board re-designated Board Member
     Stockdale as a Class I Board Member pursuant to New York Value's Articles
     of Incorporation in order to maintain an equal number of directors in each
     class. The remaining Board Members, Bremner, Evans, Schneider, Hunter,
     Kundert and Sunshine, are current and continuing Board Members. The Board
     of New York Value has designated Board Members Bremner, Evans and Schneider
     as continuing Class III Board Members for terms expiring in 2009 and has
     designated Board Members Hunter, Kundert and Sunshine as continuing Class
     II Board Members for terms expiring in 2008.

It is the intention of the persons named in the enclosed proxy to vote the
shares represented thereby for the election of the nominees listed in the table
below unless the proxy is marked otherwise. Each of the nominees has agreed to
serve as a Board Member of each Fund if elected. However, Mr. Brown is expected
to retire from his position as a Board Member on June 30, 2007. Should any
nominee become unable or unwilling to accept nomination for election, the
proxies will be voted for substitute nominees, if any, designated by that Fund's
present Board.

For all Funds other than New York Value, all Board Member nominees were last
elected to each Fund's Board at the annual meeting of shareholders held on March
29, 2006, with the exception of Ms. Stone. In December, 2006, Ms. Stone was
appointed to each Fund's Board effective January 1, 2007. Ms. Stone is presented
in this Joint Proxy Statement as a nominee for election by shareholders and was
recommended to the nominating and governance committee of each Fund's Board by a
third party search firm who received Ms. Stone's name from an Independent Board
Member (as defined below).

For New York Value, Board Members Brown and Schwertfeger were last elected as
Class I Board Members and Board Members Hunter, Kundert and Sunshine were last
elected as Class II Board Members at the annual meeting of shareholders held on
March 22, 2005. Board Members Bremner, Evans, Schneider and Stockdale were last
elected as Class III members of the Board of New York Value at the annual
meeting of shareholders held on March 29, 2006.

Other than Mr. Schwertfeger, all Board Member nominees are not "interested
persons," as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the
"1940 Act"), of the Funds or Nuveen Asset Management (the "Adviser") and have
never been an employee or director of Nuveen Investments, Inc. ("Nuveen"), the
Adviser's parent company, or any affiliate. Accordingly, such Board Members are
deemed "Independent Board Members."

THE BOARD UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT SHAREHOLDERS VOTE FOR THE ELECTION OF THE
NOMINEES NAMED BELOW.

   (1) The numbers include share equivalents of certain Nuveen funds in which
       the Board Member is deemed to be invested pursuant to the Deferred
       Compensation Plan for Independent Board Members as more fully described
       below.
   (2) In December 2006, Ms. Stone was appointed to each Fund's Board effective
       January 1, 2007. Ms. Stone did not own shares of Nuveen Funds prior to
       her being appointed as a Board Member.
   (3) These shares are held in a trust for which Mr. Sunshine serves as
       trustee. Mr. Sunshine disclaims ownership of these shares.

On December 31, 2006, Board Members and executive officers as a group
beneficially owned approximately 1,500,000 shares of all funds managed by
Adviser (includes deferred units and shares held by the executive officers in
Nuveen's 401(k)/profit sharing plan). Each Board Member's individual beneficial
shareholdings of each Fund constitute less than 1% of the outstanding shares of
each Fund. As of December 31, 2006, the Board Members and executive officers as
a group beneficially owned less than 1% of the outstanding shares of each Fund.
As of February 5, 2007 no shareholder beneficially owned more than 5% of any
class of shares of any Fund.

COMPENSATION

Prior to January 1, 2007, for all Nuveen funds, Independent Board Members
received a $90,000 annual retainer plus (a) a fee of $2,500 per day for
attendance in person or by telephone at a regularly scheduled meeting of the
Board; (b) a fee of $2,000 per meeting for attendance in person where such in-
person attendance is required and $1,000 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 $1,500 per meeting for
attendance in person or by telephone at an audit committee meeting; (d) a fee of
$1,500 per meeting for attendance in person at a compliance, risk management and
regulatory oversight committee meeting where in-person attendance is required
and $1,000 per meeting for attendance by telephone or in person where in-person
attendance is not required; (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
(including 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 Lead Independent Director received $20,000, 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 on days on which no regularly
scheduled board meeting is held to entities that provide services to the Nuveen
funds. 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 were $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 was allocated among the funds managed by the
Adviser, on the basis of relative net asset sizes. The Board Member affiliated
with Nuveen and the Adviser served without any compensation from the Funds.

Effective January 1, 2007, for all Nuveen funds, Independent Board Members
receive a $95,000 annual retainer plus (a) a fee of $3,000 per day for
attendance in person or by telephone at a regularly scheduled meeting of the
Board; (b) a fee of $2,000 per meeting for attendance in person or by telephone
where 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 $1,500 per meeting for
attendance in

19



person or by telephone at an audit committee meeting; (d) a fee of $1,500 per
meeting for attendance in person or by telephone at a regularly scheduled
compliance, risk management and regulatory oversight committee meeting (d) a fee
of $1,500 per meeting for attendance in person at a non-regularly scheduled
compliance, risk management and regulatory oversight committee meeting where in-
person attendance is required and $1,000 per meeting for attendance by telephone
or in person where in-person attendance is not required, except that the
chairperson of the compliance, risk management and regulatory oversight
committee may at any time designate a non-regularly scheduled meeting of the
committee as an in-person meeting for the purposes of fees to be paid; (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 (including 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 Lead Independent Director receives $25,000, 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 $2,000 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 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 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 paid by each Fund to each Board Member for its last fiscal year.
Mr. Schwertfeger, a Board Member who is an interested person of the Funds, does
not receive any compensation from the Funds.

Nuveen maintains a charitable matching contributions program to encourage the
active support and involvement of individuals in the civic activities of their
community. Until December 31, 2006, the Independent Board Members of the funds
managed by the Adviser were eligible to participate in the charitable
contributions program of Nuveen. Under the matching contributions program,
Nuveen would match the personal contributions of a Board Member to Section
501(c)(3) organizations up to an aggregate maximum amount of $10,000 during any
calendar 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 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 executive committee of each Fund held no meetings during its last
fiscal year.

Lawrence H. Brown, 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 dividend committee of each Fund
held three meetings during its last fiscal year.

Lawrence H. Brown, 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 compliance, risk management and regulatory oversight committee
of each Fund held four meetings during its last fiscal year.

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. Robert P. Bremner, Lawrence H. Brown, Jack B. Evans, Chair,
David J. Kundert, William J. Schneider and Eugene S. Sunshine are current
members of the audit committee of each Fund, except Mr. Kundert is not a member
with respect to Real Estate and Diversified Dividend. 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

23



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. A copy of the Audit Committee Charter is
attached to the proxy statement as Appendix A. The audit committee of each Fund
held four meetings during its last fiscal year.

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 Exchange or American Stock Exchange listing standards, as applicable.
Robert P. Bremner, Chair, Lawrence H. Brown, Jack B. Evans, William C. Hunter,
David J. Kundert, William J. Schneider, Judith M. Stockdale, Carole E. Stone and
Eugene S. Sunshine are current members of the nominating and governance
committee of each Fund, except Mr. Kundert is not a member with respect to Real
Estate and Diversified Dividend. 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
nominating and governance committee of each Fund held four meetings during its
last fiscal year.

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

24



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

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.

The Board of each Fund held four regular quarterly meetings and five special
meetings during the last fiscal year, except the New York Funds held seven
special meetings during the last fiscal year. 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.

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, (2) the
quality and integrity of the financial statements of each Fund, 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 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

30



accounting firm. The committee is currently composed of five Independent Board
Members and operates under a written charter adopted and approved by the Board,
a copy of which is attached as Appendix A. Each committee member meets the
independence and experience requirements, applicable to the Funds of the New
York Stock Exchange, American Stock Exchange, Section 10A of the 1934 Act and
the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC").

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 each Board include the audited
financial statements in each Fund's Annual Report.

The members of the committee are:

Robert P. Bremner
Lawrence H. Brown
Jack B. Evans
David J. Kundert (except for Real Estate and Diversified Dividend)
Eugene S. Sunshine
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 firms 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 the Fund). None of
the services rendered by each Fund's independent registered public accounting
firm to the 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) of Regulation S-X.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

APPOINTMENT OF THE INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Board of each Fund (except Equity Premium, Equity Premium Advantage, Equity
Premium Income and Equity Premium Opportunity) has appointed Ernst & Young LLP
as independent registered public accounting firm to audit the books and records
of the Fund for its fiscal year. The Boards of Equity Premium, Equity Premium
Advantage, Equity Premium Income and Equity Premium Opportunity have appointed
PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as independent registered public accounting firm to
audit the books and records of these Funds. A representative of each independent
registered public accounting firm will be present at the Annual Meetings to make
a statement, if such representative so desires, and to respond to shareholders'
questions. Each independent registered public accounting firm has informed each
applicable Fund that it has no direct or indirect material financial interest in
the Funds, Nuveen, the Adviser or any other investment company sponsored by
Nuveen.

SECTION 16(A) BENEFICIAL INTEREST REPORTING COMPLIANCE

Section 30(h) of the 1940 Act and Section 16(a) of the 1934 Act require Board
Members and officers, the investment adviser, affiliated persons of the
investment adviser and persons who own more than 10% of a registered class of a
Fund's equity securities to file forms reporting their affiliation with that
Fund and reports of ownership and changes in ownership of that Fund's shares
with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") and the New York Stock
Exchange or American Stock Exchange, as applicable. These persons and entities
are required by SEC regulation to furnish the Funds with copies of all Section
16(a) forms they file.

34



Based on a review of these forms furnished to each Fund, each Fund believes that
its Board Members and officers, investment adviser and affiliated persons of the
investment adviser have complied with all applicable Section 16(a) filing
requirements during its last fiscal year. To the knowledge of management of the
Funds, no shareholder of a Fund owns more than 10% of a registered class of a
Fund's equity securities.

INFORMATION ABOUT THE ADVISER

The Adviser, located at 333 West Wacker Drive, Chicago, Illinois 60606, serves
as investment adviser and manager for each Fund. The Adviser is a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Nuveen, 333 West Wacker Drive, Chicago, Illinois 60606. Founded in
1898, Nuveen and its affiliates had $162 billion of assets under management as
of December 31, 2006. Nuveen is a publicly-traded company and is listed on the
New York Stock Exchange and trades under the symbol "JNC".

8 of the 1934 Act must be received at the offices of that Fund, 333 West Wacker
Drive, Chicago, Illinois 60606, not later than November 2, 2007. A shareholder
wishing to provide notice in the manner prescribed by Rule 14a-4(c)(1) of a
proposal submitted outside of the process of Rule 14a-8 must, pursuant to each
Fund's By-Laws, submit such written notice to the Fund not later than January
16, 2008 or prior to January 1, 2007. Timely submission of a proposal does not
mean that such proposal will be included in a proxy statement.

SHAREHOLDER COMMUNICATIONS

Fund shareholders who want to communicate with the Board or any individual Board
Member should write their Fund to the attention of Lorna Ferguson, Manager of
Fund Board Relations, Nuveen Investments, 333 West Wacker Drive, Chicago,
Illinois 60606. The letter should indicate that you are a Fund shareholder. If
the communication is intended for a specific Board Member and so indicates it
will be sent only to that Board Member. If a communication does not indicate a
specific Board Member it will be sent to the chair of the nominating and
governance committee and the outside counsel to the Independent Board Members
for further distribution as deemed appropriate by such persons.

EXPENSES OF PROXY SOLICITATION

The cost of preparing, printing and mailing the enclosed proxy, accompanying
notice and proxy statement will be paid by the Funds pro rata based on the
number of shareholder accounts. Additional solicitation may be made by letter or
telephone by officers or employees of Nuveen or the Adviser, or by dealers and
their representatives.

ANNUAL REPORT DELIVERY

Annual reports will be sent to shareholders of record of each Fund following
each Fund's fiscal year end. Each Fund will furnish, without charge, a copy of
its annual report and/or semi-annual report as available upon request. Such
written or oral requests should be directed to such Fund at 333 West Wacker
Drive, Chicago, Illinois 60606 or by calling 1-800-257-8787.

Please note that only one annual report or proxy statement may be delivered to
two or more shareholders of a Fund who share an address, unless the Fund has
received instructions to the contrary. To request a separate copy of an annual
report or proxy statement, or for instructions as to how to request a separate
copy of such documents or as to how to request a single copy if multiple copies
of such documents are received, shareholders should contact the applicable Fund
at the address and phone number set forth above.

GENERAL

Management does not intend to present and does not have reason to believe that
any other items of business will be presented at the Annual Meetings. However,
if other matters are properly presented to the Annual Meetings for a vote, the
proxies will be voted by the persons acting under the proxies upon such matters
in accordance with their judgment of the best interests of the Fund.

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.

                                NUVEEN FUND BOARD
                             AUDIT COMMITTEE CHARTER
                                JANUARY 26, 2006

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 New York
Stock Exchange, the American Stock Exchange, 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

A-1



Committee for compensation to independent auditors engaged for the purpose of
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.

The Audit Committee is responsible for the following:

WITH RESPECT TO FUND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS:

     1. Reviewing and discussing the annual audited financial statements and
        semi-annual financial statements with Fund management and the
        independent auditors including major issues regarding accounting and
        auditing principles and practices, and the Funds' disclosures in its
        periodic reports under "Management's Discussion and Analysis."

     2. Requiring the independent auditors to deliver to the Chairman of the
        Audit Committee a timely report on any issues relating to the
        significant accounting policies, management judgments and accounting
        estimates or other matters that would need to be communicated under
        Statement on Auditing Standards (SAS) No. 90, Audit Committee
        Communications (which amended SAS No. 61, Communication with Audit
        Committees), that arise during the auditors' review of the Funds'
        financial statements, which information the Chairman shall further
        communicate to the other members of the Audit Committee, as deemed
        necessary or appropriate in the Chairman's judgment.

     3. Discussing with management the Funds' press releases regarding financial
        results and dividends, as well as financial information and earnings
        guidance provided to analysts and rating agencies. This discussion may
        be done generally, consisting of discussing the types of information to
        be disclosed and the types of presentations to be made. The Chairman of
        the Audit Committee shall be authorized to have these discussions with
        management on behalf of the Audit Committee.


A-2



     4. Discussing with management and the independent auditors (a) significant
        financial reporting issues and judgments made in connection with the
        preparation and presentation of the Funds' financial statements,
        including any significant changes in the Funds' selection or application
        of accounting principles and any major issues as to the adequacy of the
        Funds' internal controls and any special audit steps adopted in light of
        material control deficiencies; and (b) analyses prepared by Fund
        management and/or the independent auditor setting forth significant
        financial reporting issues and judgments made in connection with the
        preparation of the financial statements, including analyses of the
        effects of alternative GAAP methods on the financial statements.

     5. Discussing with management and the independent auditors the effect of
        regulatory and accounting initiatives on the Funds' financial
        statements.

     6. Reviewing and discussing reports, both written and oral, from the
        independent auditors and/or Fund management regarding (a) all critical
        accounting policies and practices to be used; (b) all alternative
        treatments of financial information within generally accepted accounting
        principles that have been discussed with management, ramifications of
        the use of such alternative treatments and disclosures, and the
        treatment preferred by the independent auditors; and (c) other material
        written communications between the independent auditors and management,
        such as any management letter or schedule of unadjusted differences.

     7. Discussing with Fund management the Funds' major financial risk
        exposures and the steps management has taken to monitor and control
        these exposures, including the Funds' risk assessment and risk
        management policies and guidelines. In fulfilling its obligations under
        this paragraph, the Audit Committee may review in a general manner the
        processes other Board committees have in place with respect to risk
        assessment and risk management.

     8. Reviewing disclosures made to the Audit Committee by the Funds'
        principal executive officer and principal financial officer during their
        certification process for the Funds' periodic reports about any
        significant deficiencies in the design or operation of internal controls
        or material weaknesses therein and any fraud involving management or
        other employees who have a significant role in the Funds' internal
        controls. In fulfilling its obligations under this paragraph, the Audit
        Committee may review in a general manner the processes other Board
        committees have in place with respect to deficiencies in internal
        controls, material weaknesses, or any fraud associated with internal
        controls.

WITH RESPECT TO THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS:

     1. Selecting, appointing, retaining or replacing the independent auditors,
        subject, if applicable, only to Board and shareholder ratification; and
        compensating, evaluating and overseeing the work of the independent
        auditor (including the resolution of disagreements between Fund
        management and the independent auditor regarding financial reporting).

     2. Meeting with the independent auditors and Fund management to review the
        scope, fees, audit plans and staffing for the audit, for the current
        year. At the conclusion of the audit, reviewing such audit results,

A-3



        of the Funds' financial and internal controls, any comments or
        recommendations of the independent auditors, any audit problems or
        difficulties and management's response, including any restrictions on
        the scope of the independent auditor's activities or on access to
        requested information, any significant disagreements with management,
        any accounting adjustments noted or proposed by the auditor but not made
        by the Fund, any communications between the audit team and the audit
        firm's national office regarding auditing or accounting issues presented
        by the engagement, any significant changes required from the originally
        planned audit programs and any adjustments to the financial statements

        where new or more detailed controls or procedures are desirable.

        matters by employees of Fund management, the investment adviser,
        administrator, principal underwriter, or any other provider of
        accounting related services for the Funds, as well as employees of the
        Funds.

Although the Audit Committee shall have the authority and responsibilities set
forth in this Charter, it is not the responsibility of the Audit Committee to
plan or conduct audits or to determine that the Funds' financial statements are
complete and accurate and are in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles. That is the responsibility of management and the independent
auditors. Nor is it the duty of the Audit Committee to conduct investigations,
to resolve disagreements, if any, between management and the independent
auditors or to ensure compliance with laws and regulations.
