Cathryn, who joined Nuveen in 1996, has managed the Maryland and Virginia Funds since July 2006. WHAT FACTORS AFFECTED THE U.S. ECONOMIC AND MUNICIPAL MARKET ENVIRONMENTS DURING THE 12-MONTH REPORTING PERIOD ENDED MAY 31, 2007? Between June 1, 2006 and May 31, 2007, we saw interest rates at the short end of the yield curve rise modestly, while longer rates generally declined. After announcing one further rate increase in late June 2006, the Federal Reserve ended its unprecedented series of 17 consecutive 0.25% rate hikes that brought the fed funds rate to 5.25% over a two-year span. During the remaining 11 months of this reporting period, the Fed left monetary policy unchanged as it kept close tabs on inflationary pressures and the pace of economic growth. Over this same 12-month period, the yield on the benchmark 10-year U.S. Treasury note dropped 22 basis points to end May 2007 at 4.89%. In the municipal market, the yield on the Bond Buyer 25 Revenue Bond Index, a widely followed measure of longer-term municipal market rates, fell to 4.57% at the end of May 2007, a decline of 65 basis points from the end of May 2006. As interest rates on shorter-term municipal bonds reached the levels of longer-term bonds, the municipal yield curve continued to flatten and bonds with longer durations1 generally outperformed those with shorter durations during this period. Although many market observers had expected to see the Fed act on rates in early 2007, slowing economic growth, higher energy prices and a slumping housing market helped to keep the Fed on the sidelines. The U.S. gross domestic product (GDP), a closely watched measure of economic growth, operated at below-trend levels through most of 2006, expanding at a rate of 2.6% in the second quarter of 2006, 2.0% in the third quarter, and 2.5% in the fourth quarter (all GDP numbers annualized). In the first quarter of 2007, the rate of GDP growth slowed even further to 0.7%, the weakest since 2002, due in part to a 16% decline in residential investment. While the Consumer Price Index (CPI) registered a 2.7% year-over-year gain as of May 2007, the increase in this inflation gauge for the first five months of 2007 was 5.5%, driven largely by a 36% gain in energy prices. By comparison, the core CPI (which excludes food and energy prices) rose 2.1% as of May 2007, close to the Fed's unofficial target of 2.0% or lower. The labor market remained tight with a national unemployment rate of 4.5% in May 2007, down from 4.6% in May 2006. 1 Duration is a measure of a bond's price sensitivity as interest rates change, with longer duration bonds displaying more sensitivity to these changes than bonds with shorter durations. 4 Over the 12 months ended May 2007, municipal bond issuance nationwide totaled $423.4 billion, up 15% from the previous 12 months. This total reflected a sharp increase in supply during the first five months of 2007, when $173.7 billion in new securities came to market, up almost 30% over the same period in 2006. A major factor in 2007 volume was the 56% increase in advance refundings,2 driven by attractive borrowing rates for issuers. The strength and diversity of the demand for municipal bonds were as important as the increase in supply, as the surge in issuance was easily absorbed by retail investors, institutional investors such as hedge funds and arbitragers, and overseas investors, all of whom continued to participate in the market. HOW WERE ECONOMIC AND MARKET CONDITIONS IN MARYLAND AND VIRGINIA DURING THIS PERIOD? During this reporting period, Maryland's economic growth continued to be driven by the government sector, professional and business services, education and health care. Given the state's proximity to Washington D.C., the federal government remained an important element in the state economy, with Fort George G. Meade ranking as Maryland's largest employer. Manufacturing employment in Maryland was about half the national average, which was a positive factor over the past few years as U.S. manufacturing struggled. Population trends in the state were on par with the national average over the past six years. In May 2007, Maryland's jobless rate was 3.6%, down from 3.9% in May 2006, putting unemployment in the state at its lowest level since March 2001. Maryland's $29.2 billion fiscal 2007 budget provided additional funding for schools, health care, and higher education without adding new taxes. Although revenues lagged initial projections, the state's rainy day fund was expected to end fiscal 2007 with a balance of $1.4 billion. The $30 billion fiscal 2008 budget called for an increase of only 2.5% in spending and proposed drawing down the state's rainy day reserve to achieve balance. As of May 2007, Moody's and Standard & Poor's maintained their ratings on Maryland general obligation debt at Aaa/AAA with stable outlooks. During the 12 months ended May 31, 2007, issuance in the state totaled $6.4 billion, an increase of 35% over the previous 12-month period. For January-May 2007, Maryland saw $2.9 billion in new municipal paper, up 13% from the first five months of 2006. Although Maryland's debt levels have declined from their peaks in the 1980s, the state's debt per capita and debt as a percentage of personal income remained above national medians, according to Moody's. Virginia's economy continued to be led by the government sector and professional and business services. Recent reductions in military spending were partially responsible for a slower pace of economic growth in the commonwealth during this period, following several years of superior performance. Despite the cutbacks, federal spending remained a vital factor in the commonwealth's economy, with federal employment in Virginia accounting for more than twice as many jobs as the national average. While technology continued to play a growing economic role, manufacturing, especially in the textile industry, remained a drag on Virginia's economy. Population growth in the commonwealth over the past six years remained well above the national average. Job growth, while healthy, was concentrated in three areas: Northern Virginia, Virginia 2 Advance refundings, also known as pre-refundings or refinancings, occur when an issuer sells new bonds and uses the proceeds to fund principal and interest payments of older existing bonds. This process often results in lower borrowing costs for bond issuers. 5 Beach, and Richmond. In May 2007, Virginia's unemployment rate was the fifth lowest in the nation at 2.9%, on par with the May 2006 reading. The commonwealth's 2007-2008 biennium budget, which called for general fund expenditures of $34.8 billion over the two-year period, increased spending on education and transportation projects while introducing no major tax hikes. General fund revenues for fiscal 2007 were projected to come in $340 million ahead of plan. In October 2006, Moody's reconfirmed its rating on Virginia General Obligation (GO) debt at Aaa with a stable outlook, and S&P confirmed its AAA rating with a stable outlook. During the 12 months ended May 31, 2007, issuance in Virginia totaled $9.7 billion, an increase of 58% over the previous 12 months. The first five months of 2007 saw issuance rise even more sharply to $4.6 billion, up 170% from the first five months of 2006. Some of this increase was due to a major refinancing deal, totaling $1.1 billion, involving Virginia tobacco bonds, which took place in April 2007. According to Moody's, Virginia's per capita debt and debt as a percentage of personal income remained lower than national medians. WHAT KEY STRATEGIES WERE USED TO MANAGE THESE FUNDS DURING THIS REPORTING PERIOD? In the municipal bond interest rate environment of the past 12 months, where the flattening yield curve remained a dominant market factor, we continued to emphasize a disciplined approach to duration management and yield curve positioning. As part of this approach, our purchases for the Funds' portfolios focused mainly on attractively priced bonds maturing in 20 to 30 years. Overall, we believed that the bonds we purchased during this period represented opportunities to add value, manage duration, and enhance performance and income. Our duration management strategies during this period also included the use of inverse floating rate trusts,3 a type of derivative financial instrument, in all seven of the Maryland and Virginia Funds. The inverse floaters had the dual benefit of increasing the Funds' distributable income and bringing their durations closer to our preferred strategic target. As discussed in past shareholder reports, we have also used forward interest rate swaps (another type of derivative instrument) as a duration management tool when we believed this would support our overall investment performance strategies. The goal of this strategy helped us manage total return performance in relation to our strategic target without having a negative impact on the Funds' income streams or common share dividends over the short term. During this reporting period, we deployed this strategy in NFM, NWI, and NPV, with swaps remaining in place in NFM and NPV as of May 31, 2007. We also continued to emphasize individual credit selection. As previously mentioned, both Maryland and Virginia saw increased supply during this period, and steady new issuance as well as a number of major advance refundings and debt restructurings provided us with a greater variety of bonds and sectors from which to choose. Since Maryland and Virginia are high-quality states, much of the new supply was highly rated and/or insured. However, we also found purchase opportunities among lower credit quality bonds that we considered attractive based on their strong performance and the support they provide for the Funds' income streams. 3 An inverse floating rate trust is a financial instrument designed to pay long-term tax-exempt interest at a rate that varies inversely with a short-term tax-exempt interest rate index. For the Nuveen Funds, the index typically used is the Securities Industry and Financial Markets (SIFM) Municipal Swap Index (previously referred to as the Bond Market Association Index or BMA). Inverse floaters, including those inverse floating rate securities in which the Funds invested during the 12-month period, are further defined within the "Notes to Financial Statements" and "Glossary of Terms Used in This Report" sections of this shareholder report. 6 During this period, we added to all of the Funds' positions in health care (including both hospitals and long-term/continuing care facilities), higher education, and single-family housing. In the three Virginia Funds, we purchased bonds issued by the Metropolitan Washington DC Airports Authority and participated in the new offering of Virginia tobacco credits that were issued as part of the advance refunding of the commonwealth's older tobacco bonds. We also continued to build positions in bonds that could help us increase the Funds' income-generating potential and manage duration, including zero coupon and non-callable bonds. To maintain the Funds' durations within our preferred strategic range and to generate cash for purchases, we selectively sold some of the Funds' holdings with shorter durations. In NMY, NFM, and NWI, we found opportunities to sell a few of our holdings that were purchased when yields were lower and replace them with similar, newer credits that yielded comparatively more. This allowed us to maintain the Funds' current portfolio characteristics while strengthening their future income streams. HOW DID THE FUNDS PERFORM? Individual results for the Nuveen Maryland and Virginia Funds, as well as relevant index and peer group information, are presented in the accompanying table.

NMY, NFM, NZR, NWI, NGB, and NNB also outperformed the average return for the Lipper Other States Municipal Debt Funds Average, while NPV trailed this Lipper average. Shareholders should note that the performance of the Lipper Other States Municipal Debt Funds Average represents the overall average of returns for Past performance is not predictive of future results. Current performance may be higher or lower than the data shown. Returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that shareholders may have to pay on Fund distributions or upon the sale of Fund shares. For additional information, see the individual Performance Overview for your Fund in this report. 4 The Lehman Brothers Municipal Bond Index is an unleveraged, unmanaged national index comprising a broad range of investment-grade municipal bonds. Results for the Lehman index do not reflect any expenses. 5 The Lipper Other States Municipal Debt Funds Average is calculated using the returns of all closed-end funds in this category for each period as follows: 1 year, 46; 5 years, 27; and 10 years, 18. Fund and Lipper returns assume reinvestment of dividends. 7 funds from 10 different states with a wide variety of municipal market conditions, making direct comparisons less meaningful. Factors that influenced the Funds' returns during this period included yield curve and duration positioning, exposure to lower-rated credits, individual security selection and sector allocations, and advance refunding activity. As the yield curve continued to flatten over the course of this period, municipal bonds with maturities of 15 years and longer, as measured by the Lehman Brothers Municipal Bond Index, performed best, generally outpacing municipal bonds with shorter maturities, especially those with maturities of less than 5 years. While our strategies during this period included adding longer bonds to our portfolios, most of these Funds remained slightly short of our strategic target in terms of their holdings of bonds in the longest part of the yield curve, which was negative for performance. However, this was offset by the Funds' heavier exposure to the intermediate part of the curve, which performed well, and their lower allocations to the shorter part of the curve, which underperformed the general municipal market. The Funds' yield curve and duration positioning during this period was a positive contributor to their performance. With bonds rated BBB or lower and non-rated bonds generally outperforming other credit quality sectors during this period, all of these Funds benefited from their weightings in lower-quality credits. The outperformance of these credit sectors was largely the result of investor demand for the higher yields typically associated with lower-rated bonds, which drove up their value. As Dividend Advantage Funds, NFM, NZR, NWI, NGB, and NNB can invest up to 20% of their assets in below- investment-grade securities (bonds rated BB or below) or in non-rated bonds judged to be in the same credit quality category. The exposure of these five Funds to the subinvestment-grade sector, together with a fee reimbursement agreement, contributed to the outperformance of these Funds relative to NMY and NPV, which overall represented higher credit quality. In addition, NFM and NWI also had the heaviest weightings of bonds rated BBB across all seven of these Funds, which further benefited their performance. Among the lower-rated holdings making positive contributions to the Funds' returns for this period were industrial development bonds and health care (including hospitals) credits, which ranked as the top performing revenue sectors in the Lehman Brothers Municipal Bond Index. Lower-rated bonds backed by the 1998 master tobacco settlement agreement performed well. As of May 31, 2007, NMY, NFM, NZR, and NWI held approximately 1.4% to 2.4% of their portfolios in lower-rated tobacco bonds, while the Virginia Funds' lower-rated tobacco allocations ranged from 2.3% in NPV to 3.2% in NNB and 4.5% in NGB. 8 Additional sectors that helped the Funds' performances during this period included tax-supported bonds and, in the Maryland Funds, higher education and multifamily housing credits. The Funds' holdings of zero coupon bonds also provided a positive impact on performance for this period. We continued to see positive contributions from advance refunding activity, which benefited the Funds through price appreciation and enhanced credit quality. All of the Maryland and Virginia Funds (with the exception of NZR) saw healthy levels of pre-refunding activity. As previously mentioned, one of the more significant advance refundings during this period involved BBB rated tobacco bonds issued by Virginia's Tobacco Settlement Financing Corporation, which were upgraded to AAA as a result of the refundings. At the same time, holdings of older, previously pre-refunded bonds tended to underperform the general municipal market during this period, due primarily to their shorter effective maturities. Among the Virginia Funds, NPV held appreciably heavier weightings of older pre-refunded bonds than NGB or NNB. In addition, the performance of the Maryland Funds was impacted by their holdings of single-family housing bonds, which underperformed during this period as the municipal market rallied. We should also note that all of these Funds continued to use financial leverage to provide opportunities for additional income and total return for common shareholders. This strategy can also add volatility to a Fund's NAV and share price. Over this period, the use of leverage was generally a positive factor in the Funds' total return performance, especially in relation to that of the unleveraged Lehman Brothers Municipal Bond Index. 9 Dividend and Share Price INFORMATION As previously noted, these seven Funds use leverage to potentially enhance opportunities for additional income for common shareholders. Although the Funds' use of this strategy continued to provide incremental income, the extent of this benefit was reduced during this period due to high short-term interest rates that, in turn, kept the Funds' borrowing costs high. The Funds' income streams were also impacted as the proceeds from older, higher-yielding bonds that matured or were called were reinvested into bonds currently available in the market, which generally offered lower yields. The combination of these factors resulted in one monthly dividend reduction in NMY, NFM, NZR, NPV and NNB and two in NGB over the 12-month period ended May 31, 2007. The dividend of NWI remained stable throughout this reporting period. Due to normal portfolio activity, common shareholders of the following Funds received capital gains or net ordinary income distributions at the end of December 2006 as follows: Short-Term Capital Gains Long-Term Capital Gains and/or Ordinary Income (per share) (per share) NZR -- $0.0014 NPV $0.0215 -- All of the Funds in this report seek to pay stable dividends at rates that reflect each Fund's past results and projected future performance. During certain periods, each Fund may pay dividends at a rate that may be more or less than the amount of net investment income actually earned by the Fund during the period. If a Fund has cumulatively earned more than it has paid in dividends, it holds the excess in reserve as undistributed net investment income (UNII) as part of the Fund's NAV. Conversely, if a Fund has cumulatively paid dividends in excess of its earnings, the excess constitutes negative UNII that is likewise reflected in the Fund's NAV. Each Fund will, over time, pay all of its net investment income as dividends to shareholders. As of May 31, 2007, all of the Funds in this report except NPV had positive UNII balances for tax purposes and negative UNII balances for financial statement purposes.

These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Funds' management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Funds' internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Funds' internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements and financial highlights, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of May 31, 2007, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers or by other appropriate auditing procedures where replies from brokers were not received.

The Fund may invest in "zero coupon" securities. A zero coupon security does not pay a regular interest coupon to its holders during the life of the security. Tax-exempt income to the holder of the security comes from accretion of the difference between the original purchase price of the security at issuance and the par value of the security at maturity and is effectively paid at maturity. Such securities are included in the portfolio with a 0.00% coupon rate in their description. The market prices of zero coupon securities generally are more volatile than the market prices of securities that pay interest periodically. (1) All percentages shown in the Portfolio of Investments are based on net assets applicable to Common shares unless otherwise noted. (2) Optional Call Provisions (not covered by the report of independent registered public accounting firm): Dates (month and year) and prices of the earliest optional call or redemption. There may be other call provisions at varying prices at later dates. Certain mortgage-backed securities may be subject to periodic principal paydowns. (3) Ratings (not covered by the report of independent registered public accounting firm): Using the higher of Standard & Poor's or Moody's rating. Ratings below BBB by Standard & Poor's Group or Baa by Moody's Investor Service, Inc. are considered to be below investment grade. (4) Backed by an escrow or trust containing sufficient U.S. Government or U.S. Government agency securities which ensure the timely payment of principal and interest. Such investments are normally considered to be equivalent to AAA rated securities. (5) The issuer has received a formal adverse determination from the Internal Revenue Service (the "IRS") regarding the tax-exempt status of the bonds' coupon payments. The Fund will continue to treat coupon payments as tax-exempt income until such time that it is formally determined that the interest on the bonds should be treated as taxable. (6) Effective date represents the date on which both the Fund and counterparty commence interest payment accruals on each forward swap contract. N/R Not rated. WI/DD Purchased on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis. (ETM) Escrowed to maturity. (IF) Inverse floating rate investment.

The Fund may invest in "zero coupon" securities. A zero coupon security does not pay a regular interest coupon to its holders during the life of the security. Tax-exempt income to the holder of the security comes from accretion of the difference between the original purchase price of the security at issuance and the par value of the security at maturity and is effectively paid at maturity. Such securities are included in the portfolio with a 0.00% coupon rate in their description. The market prices of zero coupon securities generally are more volatile than the market prices of securities that pay interest periodically. (1) All percentages shown in the Portfolio of Investments are based on net assets applicable to Common shares unless otherwise noted. (2) Optional Call Provisions (not covered by the report of independent registered public accounting firm): Dates (month and year) and prices of the earliest optional call or redemption. There may be other call provisions at varying prices at later dates. Certain mortgage-backed securities may be subject to periodic principal paydowns. (3) Ratings (not covered by the report of independent registered public accounting firm): Using the higher of Standard & Poor's or Moody's rating. Ratings below BBB by Standard & Poor's Group or Baa by Moody's Investor Service, Inc. are considered to be below investment grade. (4) Backed by an escrow or trust containing sufficient U.S. Government or U.S. Government agency securities which ensure the timely payment of principal and interest. Such investments are normally considered to be equivalent to AAA rated securities. (5) The issuer has received a formal adverse determination from the Internal Revenue Service (the "IRS") regarding the tax-exempt status of the bonds' coupon payments. The Fund will continue to treat coupon payments as tax-exempt income until such time that it is formally determined that the interest on the bonds should be treated as taxable. N/R Not rated. WI/DD Purchased on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis. (ETM) Escrowed to maturity. (IF) Inverse floating rate investment.

The Fund may invest in "zero coupon" securities. A zero coupon security does not pay a regular interest coupon to its holders during the life of the security. Tax-exempt income to the holder of the security comes from accretion of the difference between the original purchase price of the security at issuance and the par value of the security at maturity and is effectively paid at maturity. Such securities are included in the portfolio with a 0.00% coupon rate in their description. The market prices of zero coupon securities generally are more volatile than the market prices of securities that pay interest periodically. (1) All percentages shown in the Portfolio of Investments are based on net assets applicable to Common shares unless otherwise noted. (2) Optional Call Provisions (not covered by the report of independent registered public accounting firm): Dates (month and year) and prices of the earliest optional call or redemption. There may be other call provisions at varying prices at later dates. Certain mortgage-backed securities may be subject to periodic principal paydowns. (3) Ratings (not covered by the report of independent registered public accounting firm): Using the higher of Standard & Poor's or Moody's rating. Ratings below BBB by Standard & Poor's Group or Baa by Moody's Investor Service, Inc. are considered to be below investment grade. (4) Backed by an escrow or trust containing sufficient U.S. Government or U.S. Government agency securities which ensure the timely payment of principal and interest. Such investments are normally considered to be equivalent to AAA rated securities. (5) The issuer has received a formal adverse determination from the Internal Revenue Service (the "IRS") regarding the tax-exempt status of the bonds' coupon payments. The Fund will continue to treat coupon payments as tax-exempt income until such time that it is formally determined that the interest on the bonds should be treated as taxable. N/R Not rated. WI/DD Purchased on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis. (ETM) Escrowed to maturity. (IF) Inverse floating rate investment.

See accompanying notes to financial statements. 70 Notes to FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 1. GENERAL INFORMATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The funds (the "Funds") covered in this report and their corresponding Common share stock exchange symbols are Nuveen Maryland Premium Income Municipal Fund (NMY), Nuveen Maryland Dividend Advantage Municipal Fund (NFM), Nuveen Maryland Dividend Advantage Municipal Fund 2 (NZR), Nuveen Maryland Dividend Advantage Municipal Fund 3 (NWI), Nuveen Virginia Premium Income Municipal Fund (NPV), Nuveen Virginia Dividend Advantage Municipal Fund (NGB) and Nuveen Virginia Dividend Advantage Municipal Fund 2 (NNB). Common shares of Maryland Premium Income (NMY) and Virginia Premium Income (NPV) are traded on the New York Stock Exchange while Common shares of Maryland Dividend Advantage (NFM), Maryland Dividend Advantage 2 (NZR), Maryland Dividend Advantage 3 (NWI), Virginia Dividend Advantage (NGB) and Virginia Dividend Advantage 2 (NNB) are traded on the American Stock Exchange. The Funds are registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as closed-end management investment companies. Each Fund seeks to provide current income exempt from both regular federal and designated state income taxes by investing primarily in a diversified portfolio of municipal obligations issued by state and local government authorities within a single state or certain U.S. territories. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Funds in the preparation of their financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Investment 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 Trustees. When market price quotes are not readily available (which is usually the case for municipal securities), the pricing service may establish fair 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, evaluations of anticipated cash flows or collateral and general market conditions. Prices of forward swap contracts are also provided by an independent pricing service approved by each Fund's Board of Trustees. Futures contracts are valued using the closing settlement price, or, in the absence of such a price, at the mean of the bid and asked prices. If the pricing service is unable to supply a price for a municipal bond, forward swap contract or futures contract, each Fund may use a market price or fair market value quote provided by a major broker/dealer in such investments. If it is determined that the market price or fair market value for an investment is unavailable or inappropriate, the Board of Trustees of the Funds, or its designee, may establish a fair value for the investment. Temporary investments in securities that have variable rate and demand features qualifying them as short-term investments are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. Investment Transactions Investment transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Realized gains and losses from transactions are determined on the specific identification method. Investments purchased on a when-issued/delayed delivery basis may have extended settlement periods. Any investments so purchased are subject to market fluctuation during this period. The Funds have instructed the custodian to segregate assets with a current value at least equal to the amount of the when-issued/delayed delivery purchase commitments. At May 31, 2007, Maryland Premium Income (NMY), Maryland Dividend Advantage (NFM), Maryland Dividend Advantage 2 (NZR), Maryland Dividend Advantage 3 (NWI), Virginia Premium Income (NPV), Virginia Dividend Advantage (NGB) and Virginia Dividend Advantage 2 (NNB) had outstanding when-issued/delayed delivery purchase commitments of $1,200,000, $500,000, $500,000, $620,000, $1,600,355, $565,142 and $1,056,340, respectively. Investment Income Interest income, which includes the amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts for financial reporting purposes, is recorded on an accrual basis. Investment income also includes paydown gains and losses, if any. Income Taxes Each Fund is a separate taxpayer for federal income tax purposes. Each Fund intends to distribute substantially all net investment income and net capital gains to shareholders and to otherwise comply with the requirements of Subchapter M of the Internal 71 Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies. 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 and designated state income taxes, to retain such tax-exempt status when distributed to shareholders of the Funds. Net realized capital gains and ordinary income distributions paid by the Funds are subject to federal taxation. Dividends and Distributions to Common Shareholders Dividends from tax-exempt net investment income are declared 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 U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Preferred Shares The Funds have issued and outstanding Preferred shares, $25,000 stated value per share, as a means of effecting financial leverage. Each Fund's Preferred shares are issued in one or more Series. The dividend rate paid by the Funds on each Series is determined every seven days, pursuant to a dutch auction process overseen by the auction agent, and is payable at the end of each rate period. The number of Preferred shares outstanding, by Series and in total, for each Fund is as follows:

Inverse Floating Rate Securities Each Fund may invest in inverse floating rate securities. An inverse floating rate security is created by depositing a municipal bond, typically with a fixed interest rate, into a special purpose trust created by a broker-dealer. In turn, this trust (a) issues floating rate certificates, in face amounts equal to some fraction of the deposited bond's par amount or market value, that typically pay short-term tax-exempt interest rates to third parties, and (b) issues to a long-term investor (such as one of the Funds) an inverse floating rate certificate (sometimes referred to as an "inverse floater") that represents all remaining or residual interest in the trust. The income received by the inverse floater holder varies inversely with the short-term rate paid to the floating rate certificates' holders, and in most circumstances the inverse floater holder bears substantially all of the underlying bond's downside investment risk and also benefits disproportionately from any potential appreciation of the underlying bond's value. The price of an inverse floating rate security will be more volatile than that of the underlying bond because the interest rate is dependent on not only the fixed coupon rate of the underlying bond but also on the short-term interest paid on the floating rate certificates, and because the inverse floating rate security essentially bears the risk of loss of the greater face value of the underlying bond. A Fund may purchase an inverse floating rate security in a secondary market transaction without first owning the underlying bond (referred to as an "externally-deposited inverse floater"), or instead by first selling a fixed-rate bond to a broker-dealer for deposit into the special purpose trust and receiving in turn the residual interest in the trust (referred to as a "self-deposited inverse floater"). 72 An investment in an externally-deposited inverse floater is identified in the Portfolio of Investments as an "Inverse floating rate investment". An investments in a self-deposited inverse floater is accounted for as a financing transaction in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 140 "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishment of Liabilities". In such instances, a fixed-rate bond deposited into a special purpose trust is identified in the Portfolio of Investments as an "Underlying bond of an inverse floating rate trust", with the Fund accounting for the short-term floating rate certificates issued by the trust as "Floating rate obligations" on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. In addition, the Fund reflects in Investment Income the entire earnings of the underlying bond and accounts for the related interest paid to the holders of the short-term floating rate certificates as "Floating rate obligations interest expense and fees" in the Statement of Operations. During the fiscal year ended May 31, 2007, each Fund invested in externally deposited inverse floaters and/or self-deposited inverse floaters. The average floating rate obligations outstanding and average annual interest rate and fees related to self-deposited inverse floaters during the fiscal year ended May 31, 2007, were as follows:

Forward Swap Transactions The Funds are authorized to invest in certain derivative financial instruments. Each Funds' use of forward interest rate swap transactions is intended to help the Fund manage its overall interest rate sensitivity, either shorter or longer, generally to more closely align the Fund's interest rate sensitivity with that of the broader municipal market. Forward interest rate swap transactions involve each Fund's agreement with a counterparty to pay, in the future, a fixed or variable rate payment in exchange for the counterparty paying the Fund a variable or fixed rate payment, the accruals for which would begin at a specified date in the future (the "effective date"). The amount of the payment obligation is based on the notional amount of the forward swap contract and the termination date of the swap (which is akin to a bond's maturity). The value of the Fund's swap commitment would increase or decrease based primarily on the extent to which long-term interest rates for bonds having a maturity of the swap's termination date increases or decreases. The Funds may terminate a swap contract prior to the effective date, at which point a realized gain or loss is recognized. When a forward swap is terminated, it ordinarily does not involve the delivery of securities or other underlying assets or principal, but rather is settled in cash on a net basis. Each Fund intends, but is not obligated, to terminate its forward swaps before the effective date. Accordingly, the risk of loss with respect to the swap counterparty on such transactions is limited to the credit risk associated with a counterparty failing to honor its commitment to pay any realized gain to the Fund upon termination. To reduce such credit risk, all counterparties are required to pledge collateral daily (based on the daily valuation of each swap) on behalf of each Fund with a value approximately equal to the amount of any unrealized gain above a pre-determined threshold. Reciprocally, when any of the Funds have an unrealized loss on a swap contract, the Funds have instructed the custodian to pledge assets of the Funds as collateral with a value approximately equal to the amount of the unrealized loss above a pre-determined threshold. Collateral pledges are monitored and subsequently adjusted if and when the swap valuations fluctuate, either up or down, by at least the predetermined threshold amount. Futures Contracts The Funds are authorized to invest in futures contracts. Upon entering into a futures contract, a Fund is required to deposit with the broker an amount of cash or liquid securities equal to a specified percentage of the contract amount. This is known as the "initial margin." Subsequent payments ("variation margin") are made or received by a Fund each day, depending on the daily fluctuation of the value of the contract. During the period the futures contract is open, changes in the value of the contract are recognized as an unrealized gain or loss by "marking-to-market" on a daily basis to reflect the changes in market value of the contract. When the contract is closed or expired, a Fund records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contract on the closing date and value of the contract when originally entered into. Cash held by the broker to cover initial margin requirements on open futures contracts, if any, is recognized in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Additionally, the Statement of Assets and Liabilities reflects a receivable or payable for the variation margin when applicable. The Funds did not invest in any such instruments during the fiscal year ended May 31, 2007. 73 Risks of investments in futures contracts include the possible adverse movement of the securities or indices underlying the contracts, the possibility that there may not be a liquid secondary market for the contracts and/or that a change in the value of the contract may not correlate with a change in the value of the underlying securities or indices. 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. Indemnifications Under the Funds' organizational documents, their Officers and Trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Funds. In addition, in the normal course of business, the Funds enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications to other parties. The Funds' maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Funds that have not yet occurred. However, the Funds have not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts and expect the risk of loss to be remote. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles 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 Transactions in Common shares were as follows:

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 the treatment of paydown gains and losses, timing differences in recognizing taxable market discount, timing differences in recognizing certain gains and losses on investment transactions and the treatment of investments in inverse floating rate transactions subject to SFAS No. 140. To the extent that differences arise that are permanent in nature, such amounts are reclassified within the capital accounts on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities presented in the annual report, based on their federal tax basis treatment; temporary differences do not require reclassification. Temporary and permanent differences do not impact the net asset values of the Funds. At May 31, 2007, the cost of investments was as follows:

Maryland Dividend Advantage elected to defer net realized losses from investments incurred from November 1, 2006 through May 31, 2007 ("post-October losses") in accordance with federal income tax regulations. The post-October losses of $9,857 were treated as having arisen on the first day of the following taxable year. 5. MANAGEMENT FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES Each Fund's management fee is separated into two components - a complex-level component, based on the aggregate amount of all fund assets managed by Nuveen Asset Management (the "Adviser"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Nuveen Investments, Inc. ("Nuveen"), and a specific fund-level component, based only on the amount of assets within each individual fund. This pricing structure enables Nuveen fund shareholders to benefit from growth in the assets within each individual fund as well as from growth in the amount of complex-wide assets managed by the Adviser. The annual fund-level fee, payable monthly, for each Fund is based upon the average daily net assets (including net assets attributable to Preferred shares) of each Fund as follows: AVERAGE DAILY NET ASSETS MARYLAND PREMIUM INCOME (NMY) (INCLUDING NET ASSETS VIRGINIA PREMIUM INCOME (NPV) ATTRIBUTABLE TO PREFERRED SHARES) FUND-LEVEL FEE RATE ================================================================================ For the first $125 million .4500% For the next $125 million .4375 For the next $250 million .4250 For the next $500 million .4125 For the next $1 billion .4000 For the next $3 billion .3875 For net assets over $5 billion .3750 ================================================================================ MARYLAND DIVIDEND ADVANTAGE (NFM) MARYLAND DIVIDEND ADVANTAGE 2 (NZR) MARYLAND DIVIDEND ADVANTAGE 3 (NWI) AVERAGE DAILY NET ASSETS VIRGINIA DIVIDEND ADVANTAGE (NGB) (INCLUDING NET ASSETS VIRGINIA DIVIDEND ADVANTAGE 2 (NNB) ATTRIBUTABLE TO PREFERRED SHARES) FUND-LEVEL FEE RATE ================================================================================ For the first $125 million .4500% For the next $125 million .4375 For the next $250 million .4250 For the next $500 million .4125 For the next $1 billion .4000 For net assets over $2 billion .3750 ================================================================================ 77 The annual complex-level fee, payable monthly, which is additive to the fund-level fee, for all Nuveen sponsored funds in the U.S., is based on the aggregate amount of total fund assets managed as stated in the table below. As of May 31, 2007, the complex-level fee rate was .1824%. COMPLEX-LEVEL ASSETS(1) COMPLEX-LEVEL FEE RATE ================================================================================ For the first $55 billion .2000% For the next $1 billion .1800 For the next $1 billion .1600 For the next $3 billion .1425 For the next $3 billion .1325 For the next $3 billion .1250 For the next $5 billion .1200 For the next $5 billion .1175 For the next $15 billion .1150 For Managed Assets over $91 billion (2) .1400 ================================================================================ (1) The complex-level fee component of the management fee for the funds is calculated based upon the aggregate Managed Assets ("Managed Assets" means the average daily net assets of each fund including assets attributable to preferred stock issued by or borrowings by the Nuveen funds) of Nuveen-sponsored funds in the U.S. (2) With respect to the complex-wide Managed Assets over $91 billion, the fee rate or rates that will apply to such assets will be determined at a later date. In the unlikely event that complex-wide Managed Assets reach $91 billion prior to a determination of the complex-level fee rate or rates to be applied to Managed Assets in excess of $91 billion, the complex-level fee rate for such complex-wide Managed Assets shall be .1400% until such time as a different rate or rates is determined. The management fee compensates the Adviser for overall investment advisory and administrative services and general office facilities. The Funds pay no compensation directly to those of its Trustees who are affiliated with the Adviser or to its Officers, all of whom receive remuneration for their services to the Funds from the Adviser or its affiliates. The Board of Trustees has adopted a deferred compensation plan for independent Trustees that enables Trustees to elect to defer receipt of all or a portion of the annual compensation they are entitled to receive from certain Nuveen advised funds. Under the plan, deferred amounts are treated as though equal dollar amounts had been invested in shares of select Nuveen advised funds. For the first ten years of Maryland Dividend Advantage's (NFM) and Virginia Dividend Advantage's (NGB) operations, the Adviser has agreed to reimburse the Funds, as a percentage of average daily net assets (including net assets attributable to Preferred shares), for fees and expenses in the amounts and for the time periods set forth below: YEAR ENDING YEAR ENDING JANUARY 31, JANUARY 31, ================================================================================ 2001* .30% 2007 .25% 2002 .30 2008 .20 2003 .30 2009 .15 2004 .30 2010 .10 2005 .30 2011 .05 2006 .30 ================================================================================ * From the commencement of operations.

The Adviser has not agreed to reimburse Virginia Dividend Advantage 2 (NNB) for any portion of its fees and expenses beyond November 30, 2011. 6. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 48 On July 13, 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) released FASB Interpretation No. 48 "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes" (FIN 48). FIN 48 provides guidance for how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, presented and disclosed in the financial statements. FIN 48 requires the evaluation of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Funds' tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are "more-likely-than-not" of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions not deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold would be recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year. Adoption of FIN 48 is required for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006, and is to be applied to all open tax years as of the effective date. Recent SEC guidance allows funds to delay implementing FIN 48 into NAV calculations until the fund's last NAV calculation in the first required financial statement reporting period. As a result, the Funds must begin to incorporate FIN 48 into their NAV calculations by November 30, 2007. At this time, management is continuing to evaluate the implications of FIN 48 and does not expect the adoption of FIN 48 will have a significant impact on the net assets or results of operations of the Funds. Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157 In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 157, "Fair Value Measurements." This standard establishes a single authoritative definition of fair value, sets out a framework for measuring fair value and requires additional disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 applies to fair value measurements already required or permitted by existing standards. SFAS No. 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The changes to current generally accepted accounting principles from the application of this standard relate to the definition of fair value, the methods used to measure fair value, and the expanded disclosures about fair value measurements. As of May 31, 2007, the Funds do not believe the adoption of SFAS No. 157 will impact the financial statement amounts; however, additional disclosures may be required about the inputs used to develop the measurements and the effect of certain of the measurements included within the Statement of Operations for the period. 79 7. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS Distributions to Common Shareholders The Funds declared Common share dividend distributions from their tax-exempt net investment income which were paid on July 2, 2007, to shareholders of record on June 15, 2007, as follows: MARYLAND MARYLAND MARYLAND MARYLAND PREMIUM DIVIDEND DIVIDEND DIVIDEND INCOME ADVANTAGE ADVANTAGE 2 ADVANTAGE 3 (NMY) (NFM) (NZR) (NWI) ================================================================================ Dividend per share $.0515 $.0585 $.0585 $.0525 ================================================================================ VIRGINIA VIRGINIA VIRGINIA PREMIUM DIVIDEND DIVIDEND INCOME ADVANTAGE ADVANTAGE 2 (NPV) (NGB) (NNB) ================================================================================ Dividend per share $.0530 $.0595 $.0595 ================================================================================ Agreement and Plan of Merger On June 20, 2007, Nuveen Investments announced that it had entered into a definitive Agreement and Plan of Merger ("Merger Agreement") with an investor group majority-led by Madison Dearborn Partners, LLC. Madison Dearborn Partners, LLC is a private equity investment firm based in Chicago, Illinois. The investor group includes affiliates of Merrill Lynch, Wachovia, Citigroup, Deutsche Bank and Morgan Stanley. It is anticipated that Merrill Lynch and its affiliates will be indirect "affiliated persons" (as that term is defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940) of the Funds. Under the terms of the merger, each outstanding share of Nuveen Investments' common stock (other than dissenting shares) will be converted into the right to receive a specified amount of cash, without interest. The merger is expected to be completed by the end of the year, subject to customary conditions, including obtaining the approval of Nuveen Investments shareholders, obtaining necessary fund and client consents sufficient to satisfy the terms of the Merger Agreement, and expiration of certain regulatory waiting periods. The obligations of Madison Dearborn Partners, LLC to consummate the merger are not conditioned on its obtaining financing. The Merger Agreement includes a "go shop" provision through July 19, 2007, during which Nuveen Investments may actively solicit and negotiate competing takeover proposals. The consummation of the merger will be deemed to be an "assignment" (as defined in the 1940 Act) of the investment management agreement between each Fund and the Adviser, and will result in the automatic termination of each Fund's agreement. Prior to the consummation of the merger, it is anticipated that the Board of Trustees of each Fund will consider a new investment management agreement with the Adviser. If approved by the Board, the new agreement would be presented to the Fund's shareholders for approval, and, if so approved by shareholders, would take effect upon consummation of the merger. There can be no assurance that the merger described above will be consummated as contemplated or that necessary shareholder approvals will be obtained. 80 Financial HIGHLIGHTS 81 Financial HIGHLIGHTS Selected data for a Common share outstanding throughout each period:

(1) Mr. Schwertfeger is an "interested person" of the Funds, as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, because he is an officer and board member of the Adviser. (2) Board Members serve three year terms, except for two board members who are elected by the holders of Preferred Shares. The Board of Trustees is divided into three classes, Class I, Class II, and Class III, with each being elected to serve until the third succeeding annual shareholders' meeting subsequent to its election or thereafter in each case when its respective successors are duly elected or appointed, except two board members are elected by the holders of Preferred Shares to serve until the next annual shareholders' meeting subsequent to its election or thereafter in each case when its respective successors are duly elected or appointed. The first year elected or appointed represents the year in which the board member was first elected or appointed to any fund in the Nuveen Complex. (3) Nuveen Advisory Corp. and Nuveen Institutional Advisory Corp. were reorganized into Nuveen Asset Management, effective January 1, 2005. (4) Officers serve one year terms through July of each year. The year first elected or appointed represents the year in which the Officer was first elected or appointed to any fund in the Nuveen Complex. 93 Annual Investment Management Agreement APPROVAL PROCESS The Board of Trustees is responsible for overseeing the performance of the investment adviser to the Funds and determining whether to continue the advisory arrangements. At a meeting held on May 21-23, 2007 (the "May Meeting"), the Board of Trustees of the Funds, including the independent Trustees, unanimously approved the continuance of the Investment Management Agreement between each Fund and NAM (the "Fund Adviser"). THE APPROVAL PROCESS During the course of the year, the Board received a wide variety of materials relating to the services provided by the Fund Adviser and the performance of the Funds. At each of its quarterly meetings, the Board reviews investment performance and various matters relating to the respective Fund's operations, including the Fund's compliance program, shareholder services, valuation, custody, distribution and other information relating to the nature, extent and quality of services provided by the Fund Adviser. Between the regularly scheduled quarterly meetings, the Trustees received information on particular matters as the need arose. In considering whether to renew the respective advisory contract with the Fund Adviser at the May Meeting, the independent Trustees also received extensive materials well in advance of their meeting which outlined, among other things: o the nature, extent and quality of services provided by the Fund Adviser; o the organization and business operations of the Fund Adviser, including the responsibilities of various departments and key personnel; o the Fund's past performance as well as the Fund's performance compared to funds with similar investment objectives based on data and information provided by an independent third party and to customized benchmarks; o the profitability of the Fund Adviser and certain industry profitability analyses for unaffiliated advisers; o the expenses of the Fund Adviser in providing the various services; o the advisory fees and total expense ratios of the Fund, including comparisons of such fees and expenses with those of comparable, unaffiliated funds based on information and data provided by an independent third party (the "Peer Universe") as well as compared to a subset of funds within the Peer Universe (the "Peer Group") of the respective Fund (as applicable); o the advisory fees the Fund Adviser assesses to other types of investment products or clients; o the soft dollar practices of the Fund Adviser, if any; and o from independent legal counsel, a legal memorandum describing among other things, applicable laws, regulations and duties in reviewing and approving advisory contracts. At the May Meeting, the Fund Adviser made a presentation to and responded to questions from the Board. Prior to and after the presentations and reviewing the written materials, the independent Trustees met privately with their legal counsel to review the Board's duties in reviewing advisory contracts and consider the renewal of the advisory contracts. The independent Trustees, in consultation with independent counsel, reviewed the factors set out in judicial decisions and SEC directives relating to the renewal of advisory contracts. As outlined in more detail below, the Trustees considered all factors they believed relevant with respect to each Fund, including, but not limited to, the following: (a) the nature, extent and quality of the services to be provided by the Fund Adviser; (b) the investment performance of the Fund and the Fund Adviser; (c) the costs of the services to be provided and profits to be realized by the Fund Adviser and its affiliates; (d) the extent to which economies of scale would be realized; and (e) whether fee levels reflect these economies of scale for the benefit of Fund investors. In addition, as noted, the Trustees met regularly throughout the year to oversee the Funds. In evaluating the advisory contracts, the Trustees also relied upon 94 their knowledge resulting from their meetings and other interactions throughout the year of the Fund Adviser, its services and the Funds. It is with this background that the Trustees considered each advisory contract. A. NATURE, EXTENT AND QUALITY OF SERVICES In reviewing the Fund Adviser, the Trustees considered the nature, extent and quality of the Fund Adviser's services. The Trustees reviewed materials outlining, among other things, the Fund Adviser's organization and business; the types of services that the Fund Adviser or its affiliates provide and are expected to provide to the Funds; the performance record of the applicable Fund (as described in further detail below); and any initiatives Nuveen has taken for the municipal fund product line. As noted, the Trustees are already familiar with the organization, operations and personnel of the Fund Adviser due to the Trustees' experience in governing the respective Fund and working with NAM on matters relating to the Funds. With respect to personnel, the Trustees recognized NAM's investment in additional qualified personnel throughout the various groups in the organization and recommended to NAM that it continue to review staffing needs as necessary. In addition, with respect to the municipal funds advised by NAM, the Trustees reviewed materials describing the current status and, in particular, the developments in 2006 with respect to NAM's investment process, investment strategies (including additional tools used in executing such strategies), personnel (including portfolio management and research teams), trading process, hedging team, risk management team (e.g., reviewing credit quality, duration limits, derivative use, as applicable), and investment operations (such as, enhancements to trading procedures, pricing procedures, and client services). The Trustees recognized NAM's investment of resources and efforts to continue to enhance and refine its investment process. In addition to advisory services, the independent Trustees considered the quality of any administrative or non-advisory services provided. With respect to NAM, NAM provides the Funds with a wide variety of services and officers and other personnel as are necessary for the operations of the respective Fund, including, o product management; o fund administration; o oversight of shareholder services and other fund service providers; o administration of Board relations; o regulatory and portfolio compliance; and o legal support services. As the Funds operate in a highly regulated industry and given the importance of compliance, the Trustees considered, in particular, NAM's compliance activities for the Funds and enhancements thereto. In this regard, the Trustees recognized the quality of NAM's compliance team. The Trustees further noted NAM's negotiations with other service providers and the corresponding reduction in certain service providers' fees. With respect to closed-end funds, in addition to the foregoing services, the Trustees also noted the additional services that NAM or its affiliates provide to closed-end funds, including, in particular, its secondary market support activities. The Trustees recognized Nuveen's continued commitment to supporting the secondary market for the common shares of its closed-end funds through a variety of programs designed to raise investor and analyst awareness and understanding of closed-end funds. These efforts include: o maintaining shareholder communications; o providing advertising for closed-end funds; o maintaining its closed-end fund website; o continual contact with financial advisers; o providing educational symposia; o conducting research with investors and financial analysis regarding closed-end funds; and o evaluating secondary market performance. 95 With respect to Funds that utilize leverage through the issuance of preferred shares, the Trustees noted Nuveen's continued support for the preferred shares by, among other things: o maintaining an in-house trading desk; o maintaining a product manager for the preferred shares; o developing distribution for preferred shares with new market participants; o maintaining an orderly auction process; o managing leverage and risk management of leverage; and o maintaining systems necessary to test compliance with rating agency criteria. Based on their review, the Trustees found that, overall, the nature, extent and quality of services provided (and expected to be provided) to the respective Funds under the Investment Management Agreements were satisfactory. B. THE INVESTMENT PERFORMANCE OF THE FUNDS AND FUND ADVISER The Board considered the investment performance for each Fund, including the Fund's historic performance as well as its performance compared to funds with similar investment objectives (the "Performance Peer Group") based on data provided by an independent third party (as described below). With respect to municipal funds, the Trustees reviewed portfolio level performance against customized benchmarks, as described in further detail below. In evaluating the performance information, in certain instances, the Trustees noted that the closest Performance Peer Group for a Fund may not adequately reflect such Fund's investment objectives and strategies, thereby limiting the usefulness of the comparisons of such Fund's performance with that of the Performance Peer Group. With respect to state specific municipal funds, the Trustees also recognized that certain state municipal funds do not have a corresponding state specific Performance Peer Group in which case their performance is measured against a more general municipal category for various states. With respect to municipal closed-end funds, municipal funds that do not have corresponding state-specific Performance Peer Groups are from all states other than New York, California, Florida, New Jersey, Michigan, and Pennsylvania. However, with respect to Funds based on Florida, New Jersey, Michigan and Pennsylvania, the peer group may be so small or the Nuveen Funds may dominate the category to such an extent that performance information for such Funds was also compared to the more general category for all states (other than New York and California). With respect to municipal funds, the Trustees reviewed performance information including, among other things, total return information compared with the Fund's Performance Peer Group for the one-, three- and five-year periods (as applicable) ending December 31, 2006. The Trustees also reviewed the Fund's portfolio level performance (which does not reflect fund level fees and expenses) compared to customized portfolio-level benchmarks for the one- and three-year periods ending December 31, 2006 (as applicable). This analysis is designed to assess the efficacy of investment decisions against appropriate measures of risk and total return, within specific market segments. This information supplements the Fund performance information provided to the Board at each of its quarterly meetings. Based on their review, the Trustees determined that the respective Fund's absolute and relative investment performance over time had been satisfactory, subject to the following. With respect to various municipal closed-end funds, the Trustees have noted the relative total return underperformance in recent years compared to peers. The Trustees reviewed materials and discussed with the Fund Adviser the factors contributing to the shift in performance including, among other things, the degree of risk undertaken by peers compared to the Funds (such as through the increased use of leverage or taking concentrated positions in high risk credits). In addition, the Trustees also considered a Fund's dividend performance and the extent of any secondary market discounts. The Trustees noted NAM's efforts to evaluate the factors affecting performance and determine whether modification to a Fund's investment strategy is necessary or appropriate and are satisfied with the steps being taken. 96 C. FEES, EXPENSES AND PROFITABILITY 1. FEES AND EXPENSES In evaluating the management fees and expenses of a Fund, the Board reviewed, among other things, the Fund's advisory fees (net and gross management fees) and total expense ratios (before and after expense reimbursements and/or waivers) in absolute terms as well as comparisons to the gross management fees (before waivers), net management fees (after waivers) and total expense ratios (before and after waivers) of comparable funds in the Peer Universe and the Peer Group. In reviewing the fee schedule for a Fund, the Trustees considered the fund-level and complex-wide breakpoint schedules (described in further detail below) and any fee waivers and reimbursements provided by Nuveen (applicable, in particular, for certain Funds launched since 1999). The Trustees further reviewed data regarding the construction of Peer Groups as well as the methods of measurement for the fee and expense analysis and the performance analysis. In certain cases, due to the small number of peers in the Peer Universe, the Peer Universe and Peer Group may be the same. In reviewing the comparison of fee and expense information, the Trustees recognized that in certain cases, the Fund size relative to peers, the small size and odd composition of the Peer Group (including differences in objectives and strategies), expense anomalies, timing of information used or other factors impact the comparisons thereby limiting some of their usefulness. With respect to municipal closed-end funds, the Trustees also considered the differences in the use of leverage. Based on their review of the fee and expense information provided, the Trustees determined that each Fund's net total expense ratio was within an acceptable range compared to peers. 2. COMPARISONS WITH THE FEES OF OTHER CLIENTS The Trustees further reviewed data comparing the advisory fees of NAM with fees NAM charges to other clients. With respect to municipal funds, such other clients include municipal managed accounts. In general, the advisory fees charged for separate accounts are somewhat lower than the advisory fees assessed to the Funds. The Trustees considered the differences in the product types, including, but not limited to, the services provided, the structure and operations, product distribution and costs thereof, portfolio investment policies, investor profiles, account sizes and regulatory requirements. The Trustees noted, in particular, that the range of services provided to the Funds (as discussed above) is more extensive than that provided to separately managed accounts. As described in further detail above, such additional services include, but are not limited to, providing: product management, fund administration, oversight of third party service providers, administration of Board relations, and legal support. Funds further operate in a highly regulated industry requiring extensive compliance functions compared to the other investment products. Given the inherent differences in the products, particularly the extensive services provided to the Funds, the Trustees believe such facts justify the different levels of fees. 3. PROFITABILITY OF FUND ADVISERS In conjunction with its review of fees, the Trustees also considered the profitability of Nuveen for its advisory activities (which incorporated Nuveen's wholly-owned affiliated sub-advisers) and its financial condition. The Trustees reviewed the revenues and expenses of Nuveen's advisory activities for the last three years, the allocation methodology used in preparing the profitability data as well as the 2006 Annual Report for Nuveen. The Trustees noted this information supplements the profitability information requested and received during the year to help keep them apprised of developments affecting profitability (such as changes in fee waivers and expense reimbursement commitments). In this regard, the Trustees noted the enhanced dialogue and information regarding profitability with NAM during the year, including more frequent meetings and updates from Nuveen's corporate finance group. The Trustees also reviewed data comparing Nuveen's profitability with other fund sponsors prepared by three independent third party service providers as well as comparisons of the revenues, expenses and profit margins of various unaffiliated management firms with similar amounts of assets under management prepared by Nuveen. In reviewing profitability, the Trustees have recognized the subjective nature in determining profitability which may be affected by numerous factors, including, the allocation of expenses. Further, the Trustees 97 have recognized the difficulties in making comparisons as the profitability of other advisers generally is not publicly available and the profitability information that is available for certain advisers or management firms may not be representative of the industry and may be affected by, among other things, the adviser's particular business mix, capital costs, types of funds managed and expense allocations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Trustees reviewed Nuveen's methodology and assumptions for allocating expenses across product lines to determine profitability. Last year, the Trustees also designated an independent Trustee as a point person for the Board to review the methodology determinations during the year and any refinements thereto and report back to them. The Trustees also reviewed the comparisons of Nuveen's profitability margins (including pre- and post-marketing profit margins) with the profitability of various unaffiliated management firms. In reviewing profitability, the Trustees recognized Nuveen's increased investment into its fund business. Based on its review, the Trustees concluded that they were satisfied that Nuveen's level of profitability for its advisory activities was reasonable in light of the services provided. In evaluating the reasonableness of the compensation, the Trustees also considered any other revenues paid to the Fund Adviser as well as any indirect benefits (such as soft dollar arrangements, if any) the Fund Adviser and its affiliates are expected to receive that are directly attributable to their management of the Funds, if any. See Section E below for additional information. Based on their review of the overall fee arrangements of the applicable Fund, the Trustees determined that the advisory fees and expenses of the respective Fund were reasonable. D. ECONOMIES OF SCALE AND WHETHER FEE LEVELS REFLECT THESE ECONOMIES OF SCALE With respect to economies of scale, the Trustees recognized the potential benefits resulting from the costs of a Fund being spread over a larger asset base. To help ensure the shareholders share in these benefits, the Trustees have reviewed and considered the breakpoints in the advisory fee schedules that reduce advisory fees. In addition to advisory fee breakpoints, the Board also approved in 2004 a complex-wide fee arrangement. Pursuant to the complex-wide fee arrangement, the fees of the funds in the Nuveen complex, including the Funds, are reduced as the assets in the fund complex reach certain levels. In evaluating the complex-wide fee arrangement, the Trustees noted that the last breakpoint for the complex-wide fee schedule is at the $91 billion level and anticipate further review and/or negotiations prior to the assets of the Nuveen complex reaching such threshold. Based on their review, the Trustees concluded that the breakpoint schedule and complex-wide fee arrangement currently was acceptable and desirable in providing benefits from economies of scale to shareholders subject to further evaluation of the complex-wide fee schedule as assets in the complex increase. E. INDIRECT BENEFITS In evaluating fees, the Trustees also considered any indirect benefits or profits the Fund Adviser or its affiliates may receive as a result of its relationship with each Fund. With respect to closed-end funds, the Trustees considered revenues received by affiliates of NAM for serving as agent at Nuveen's preferred trading desk and for serving as a co-manager in the initial public offering of new closed-end exchange traded funds. In addition to the above, the Trustees considered whether the Fund Adviser received any benefits from soft dollar arrangements whereby a portion of the commissions paid by a Fund for brokerage may be used to acquire research that may be useful to the Fund Adviser in managing the assets of the Fund and other clients. With respect to NAM, the Trustees noted that NAM does not currently have any soft dollar arrangements; however, to the extent certain bona fide agency transactions that occur on markets that traditionally trade on a principal basis and riskless principal transactions are considered as generating "commissions," NAM intends to comply with the applicable safe harbor provisions. F. OTHER CONSIDERATIONS The Trustees did not identify any single factor discussed previously as all-important or controlling. The Trustees, including the independent Trustees, unanimously concluded that the terms of the NAM Investment Management Agreements are fair and reasonable, that the Fund Adviser's fees are reasonable in light of the services provided to each Fund and that the renewal of the NAM Investment Management Agreements should be approved. 98 Reinvest Automatically EASILY and CONVENIENTLY NUVEEN MAKES REINVESTING EASY. A PHONE CALL IS ALL IT TAKES TO SET UP YOUR REINVESTMENT ACCOUNT. NUVEEN CLOSED-END FUNDS DIVIDEND REINVESTMENT PLAN Your Nuveen Closed-End 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 greater of the net asset value or 95% of the then-current market price. If the shares are trading at less than net asset value, shares for your account will be purchased on the open market. If the Plan Agent begins purchasing Fund shares on the open market while shares are trading below net asset value, but the Fund's shares subsequently trade at or above their net asset value before the Plan Agent is able to complete its purchases, the Plan Agent may cease open-market purchases and may invest the uninvested portion of the distribution in newly-issued Fund shares at a price equal to the greater of the shares' net asset value or 95% of the shares' market value on the last business day immediately prior to the purchase date. 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 the shares may increase before purchases are completed, the average purchase price per share may exceed the market price at the time of valuation, resulting in the acquisition of fewer shares than if the 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. 99 FLEXIBLE 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.

It expresses the return that would have been necessary each year to equal the investment's actual cumulative performance (including change in NAV or market price and reinvested dividends and capital gains distributions, if any) over the time period being considered. o AVERAGE EFFECTIVE MATURITY: The average of the number of years to maturity of the bonds in a Fund's portfolio, computed by weighting each bond's time to maturity (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 unless an escrow account has been established to redeem the bond before maturity. The market value weighting for an investment in an inverse floating rate security is the value of the portfolio's residual interest in the inverse floating rate trust, and does not include the value of the floating rate securities issued by the trust. o INVERSE FLOATERS: Inverse floating rate securities are created by depositing a municipal bond, typically with a fixed interest rate, into a special purpose trust created by a broker-dealer. This trust, in turn, (a) issues floating rate certificates typically paying short-term tax-exempt interest rates to third parties in amounts equal to some fraction of the deposited bond's par amount or market value, and (b) issues an inverse floating rate certificate (sometimes referred to as an "inverse floater") to an investor (such as a Fund) interested in gaining investment exposure to a long-term municipal bond. The income received by the holder of the inverse floater varies inversely with the short-term rate paid to the floating rate certificates' holders, and in most circumstances the holder of the inverse floater bears substantially all of the underlying bond's downside investment risk. The holder of the inverse floater typically also benefits disproportionately from any potential appreciation of the underlying bond's value. Hence, an inverse floater essentially represents an investment in the underlying bond on a leveraged basis. o LEVERAGE-ADJUSTED DURATION: Duration is a measure of the expected period over which a bond's principal and interest will be paid, and consequently is a measure of the sensitivity of a bond's or bond Fund's value to changes when market interest rates change. Generally, the longer a bond's 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 longer than the duration of the Fund's portfolio of bonds. o MARKET YIELD (ALSO KNOWN AS DIVIDEND YIELD OR CURRENT YIELD): An investment's current annualized dividend divided by its current market price. o NET ASSET VALUE (NAV): A Fund's common share NAV per share is calculated by subtracting the liabilities of the Fund (including any MuniPreferred shares issued in order to leverage 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. o 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. 102 Other Useful INFORMATION QUARTERLY PORTFOLIO OF INVESTMENTS AND PROXY VOTING INFORMATION Each Fund's (i) quarterly portfolio of investments, (ii) information regarding how the Funds voted proxies relating to portfolio securities held during the 12-month period ended June 30, 2006, and (iii) a description of the policies and procedures that the Funds used to determine how to vote proxies relating to portfolio securities are available without charge, upon request, by calling Nuveen Investments toll-free at (800) 257-8787 or on Nuveen's website at www.nuveen.com.

(To view the code, click on the Investor Resources drop down menu box, click on Fund Governance and then click on Code of Conduct.) ITEM 3. AUDIT COMMITTEE FINANCIAL EXPERT. The registrant's Board of Directors or Trustees determined that the registrant has at least one "audit committee financial expert" (as defined in Item 3 of Form N-CSR) serving on its Audit Committee. The registrant's audit committee financial expert is Jack B. Evans, Chairman of the Audit Committee, who is "independent" for purposes of Item 3 of Form N-CSR. Mr. Evans was formerly President and Chief Operating Officer of SCI Financial Group, Inc., a full service registered broker-dealer and registered investment adviser ("SCI"). As part of his role as President and Chief Operating Officer, Mr. Evans actively supervised the Chief Financial Officer (the "CFO") and actively supervised the CFO's preparation of financial statements and other filings with various regulatory authorities. In such capacity, Mr. Evans was actively involved in the preparation of SCI's financial statements and the resolution of issues raised in connection therewith. Mr. Evans has also served on the audit committee of various reporting companies. At such companies, Mr. Evans was involved in the oversight of audits, audit plans, and the preparation of financial statements. Mr. Evans also formerly chaired the audit committee of the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago. ITEM 4. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTANT FEES AND SERVICES. Nuveen Virginia Dividend Advantage Municipal Fund 2 The following tables show the amount of fees that Ernst & Young LLP, the Fund's auditor, billed to the Fund during the Fund's last two full fiscal years. For engagements with Ernst & Young LLP the Audit Committee approved in advance all audit services and non-audit services that Ernst & Young LLP provided to the Fund, except for those non-audit services that were subject to the pre-approval exception under Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X (the "pre-approval exception"). The pre-approval exception for services provided directly to the Fund waives the pre-approval requirement for services other than audit, review or attest services if: (A) the aggregate amount of all such services provided constitutes no more than 5% of the total amount of revenues paid by the Fund to its accountant during the fiscal year in which the services are provided; (B) the Fund did not recognize the services as non-audit services at the time of the engagement; and (C) the services are promptly brought to the Audit Committee's attention, and the Committee (or its delegate) approves the services before the audit is completed. The Audit Committee has delegated certain pre-approval responsibilities to its Chairman (or, in his absence, any other member of the Audit Committee).

(1) "Audit Fees" are the aggregate fees billed for professional services for the audit of the Fund's annual financial statements and services provided in connection with statutory and regulatory filings or engagements. (2) "Audit Related Fees" are the aggregate fees billed for assurance and related services reasonably related to the performance of the audit or review of financial statements and are not reported under "Audit Fees". (3) "Tax Fees" are the aggregate fees billed for professional services for tax advice, tax compliance, and tax planning. (4) "All Other Fees" are the aggregate fees billed for products and services other than "Audit Fees", "Audit Related Fees", and "Tax Fees". SERVICES THAT THE FUND'S AUDITOR BILLED TO THE ADVISER AND AFFILIATED FUND SERVICE PROVIDERS The following tables show the amount of fees billed by Ernst & Young LLP to Nuveen Asset Management ("NAM" or the "Adviser"), and any entity controlling, controlled by or under common control with NAM ("Control Affiliate") that provides ongoing services to the Fund ("Affiliated Fund Service Provider"), for engagements directly related to the Fund's operations and financial reporting, during the Fund's last two full fiscal years. The tables also show the percentage of fees subject to the pre-approval exception. The pre-approval exception for services provided to the Adviser and any Affiliated Fund Service Provider (other than audit, review or attest services) waives the pre-approval requirement if: (A) the aggregate amount of all such services provided constitutes no more than 5% of the total amount of revenues paid to Ernst & Young LLP by the Fund, the Adviser and Affiliated Fund Service Providers during the fiscal year in which the services are provided that would have to be pre-approved by the Audit Committee; (B) the Fund did not recognize the services as non-audit services at the time of the engagement; and (C) the services are promptly brought to the Audit Committee's attention, and the Committee (or its delegate) approves the services before the Fund's audit is completed.

(1) The amounts reported for the Fund under the column heading "Tax Fees" represents amounts billed to the Adviser exclusively for the preparation for the Fund's tax return, the cost of which is borne by the Adviser. In the aggregate, for all Nuveen funds for which Ernst & Young LLP serves as independent registered public accounting firm, these fees amounted to $161,400 in 2006. Beginning with fund fiscal years ending August 31, 2006, Ernst & Young LLP will no longer prepare the fund tax returns. NON-AUDIT SERVICES The following table shows the amount of fees that Ernst & Young LLP billed during the Fund's last two full fiscal years for non-audit services. The Audit Committee is required to pre-approve non-audit services that Ernst & Young LLP provides to the Adviser and any Affiliated Fund Services Provider, if the engagement related directly to the Fund's operations and financial reporting (except for those subject to the de minimis exception described above). The Audit Committee requested and received information from Ernst & Young LLP about any non-audit services that Ernst & Young LLP rendered during the Fund's last fiscal year to the Adviser and any Affiliated Fund Service Provider. The Committee considered this information in evaluating Ernst & Young LLP's independence.

Audit Committee Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures. Generally, the Audit Committee must approve (i) all non-audit services to be performed for the Fund by the Fund's independent accountants and (ii) all audit and non-audit services to be performed by the Fund's independent accountants for the Affiliated Fund Service Providers with respect to operations and financial reporting of the Fund. Regarding tax and research projects conducted by the independent accountants for the Fund and Affiliated Fund Service Providers (with respect to operations and financial reports of the Fund) such engagements will be (i) pre-approved by the Audit Committee if they are expected to be for amounts greater than $10,000; (ii) reported to the Audit Committee chairman for his verbal approval prior to engagement if they are expected to be for amounts under $10,000 but greater than $5,000; and (iii) reported to the Audit Committee at the next Audit Committee meeting if they are expected to be for an amount under $5,000. ITEM 5. AUDIT COMMITTEE OF LISTED REGISTRANTS. The registrant's Board of Directors or Trustees has a separately designated Audit Committee established in accordance with Section 3(a)(58)(A) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (15 U.S.C. 78c(a)(58)(A)). The members of the audit committee are Robert P. Bremner, Jack B. Evans, William J. Schneider, Eugene S. Sunshine and David J. Kundert. ITEM 6. SCHEDULE OF INVESTMENTS. See Portfolio of Investments in Item 1. ITEM 7. DISCLOSURE OF PROXY VOTING POLICIES AND PROCEDURES FOR CLOSED-END MANAGEMENT INVESTMENT COMPANIES. The registrant invests its assets primarily in municipal bonds and cash management securities. On rare occasions the registrant may acquire, directly or through a special purpose vehicle, equity securities of a municipal bond issuer whose bonds the registrant already owns when such bonds have deteriorated or are expected shortly to deteriorate significantly in credit quality. The purpose of acquiring equity securities generally will be to acquire control of the municipal bond issuer and to seek to prevent the credit deterioration or facilitate the liquidation or other workout of the distressed issuer's credit problem. In the course of exercising control of a distressed municipal issuer, NAM may pursue the registrant's interests in a variety of ways, which may entail negotiating and executing consents, agreements and other arrangements, and otherwise influencing the management of the issuer. NAM does not consider such activities proxy voting for purposes of Rule 206(4)-6 under the 1940 Act, but nevertheless provides reports to the registrant's Board of Trustees on its control activities on a quarterly basis. In the rare event that a municipal issuer were to issue a proxy or that the registrant were to receive a proxy issued by a cash management security, NAM would either engage an independent third party to determine how the proxy should be voted or vote the proxy with the consent, or based on the instructions, of the registrant's Board of Trustees or its representative. A member of NAM's legal department would oversee the administration of the voting, and ensure that records were maintained in accordance with Rule 206(4)-6, reports were filed with the SEC on Form N-PX, and the results provided to the registrant's Board of Trustees and made available to shareholders as required by applicable rules. ITEM 8. PORTFOLIO MANAGERS OF CLOSED-END MANAGEMENT INVESTMENT COMPANIES. THE PORTFOLIO MANAGER The following individual has primary responsibility for the day-to-day implementation of the registrant's investment strategies: NAME FUND CATHRYN P. STEEVES Nuveen Virginia Dividend Advantage Municipal Fund 2 Other Accounts Managed. In addition to managing the registrant, the portfolio manager is also primarily responsible for the day-to-day portfolio management of the following accounts:
TYPE OF ACCOUNT NUMBER OF PORTFOLIO MANAGER MANAGED ACCOUNTS ASSETS - ----------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Cathryn P. Steeves Registered Investment Company 41 $8.217 billion Other Pooled Investment Vehicles -0- $0 Other Accounts -0- $0
* Assets are as of May 31, 2007. None of the assets in these accounts are subject to an advisory fee based on performance. Compensation. Each portfolio manager's compensation consists of three basic elements--base salary, cash bonus and long-term incentive compensation. The compensation strategy is to annually compare overall compensation, including these three elements, to the market in order to create a compensation structure that is competitive and consistent with similar financial services companies. As discussed below, several factors are considered in determining each portfolio manager's total compensation. In any year these factors may include, among others, the effectiveness of the investment strategies recommended by the portfolio manager's investment team, the investment performance of the accounts managed by the portfolio manager, and the overall performance of Nuveen Investments, Inc. (the parent company of NAM). Although investment performance is a factor in determining the portfolio manager's compensation, it is not necessarily a decisive factor. The portfolio manager's performance is evaluated in part by comparing manager's performance against a specified investment benchmark. This fund-specific benchmark is a customized subset (limited to bonds in each Fund's specific state and with certain maturity parameters) of the S&P/Investortools Municipal Bond index, an index comprised of bonds held by managed municipal bond fund customers of Standard & Poor's Securities Pricing, Inc. that are priced daily and whose fund holdings aggregate at least $2 million. As of April 30, 2007, the S&P/Investortools Municipal Bond index was comprised of 50,300 securities with an aggregate current market value of $985.260 billion. Base salary. Each portfolio manager is paid a base salary that is set at a level determined by NAM in accordance with its overall compensation strategy discussed above. NAM is not under any current contractual obligation to increase a portfolio manager's base salary. Cash bonus. Each portfolio manager is also eligible to receive an annual cash bonus. The level of this bonus is based upon evaluations and determinations made by each portfolio manager's supervisors, along with reviews submitted by his peers. These reviews and evaluations often take into account a number of factors, including the effectiveness of the investment strategies recommended to the NAM's investment team, the performance of the accounts for which he serves as portfolio manager relative to any benchmarks established for those accounts, his effectiveness in communicating investment performance to stockholders and their representatives, and his contribution to the NAM's investment process and to the execution of investment strategies. The cash bonus component is also impacted by the overall performance of Nuveen Investments, Inc. in achieving its business objectives. Long-term incentive compensation. Each portfolio manager is eligible to receive bonus compensation in the form of equity-based awards issued in securities issued by Nuveen Investments, Inc. The amount of such compensation is dependent upon the same factors articulated for cash bonus awards but also factors in his long-term potential with the firm. Material Conflicts of Interest. Each portfolio manager's simultaneous management of the registrant and the other accounts noted above may present actual or apparent conflicts of interest with respect to the allocation and aggregation of securities orders placed on behalf of the Registrant and the other account. NAM, however, believes that such potential conflicts are mitigated by the fact that the NAM has adopted several policies that address potential conflicts of interest, including best execution and trade allocation policies that are designed to ensure (1) that portfolio management is seeking the best price for portfolio securities under the circumstances, (2) fair and equitable allocation of investment opportunities among accounts over time and (3) compliance with applicable regulatory requirements. All accounts are to be treated in a non-preferential manner, such that allocations are not based upon account performance, fee structure or preference of the portfolio manager. In addition, NAM has adopted a Code of Conduct that sets forth policies regarding conflicts of interest. Beneficial Ownership of Securities. As of the May 31, 2007, the portfolio manager beneficially owned the following dollar range of equity securities issued by the Registrant and other Nuveen Funds managed by NAM's municipal investment team.
