Chairman's Letter

Dear Shareholder,

I am pleased to present to you this annual report for Neuberger Berman Dividend Advantage Fund Inc. for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2007. The report includes portfolio commentary, a listing of the Fund's investments, and its audited financial statements for the reporting period.

The Fund seeks high total return, comprising high current income (a portion of which may be qualified dividend income) and capital appreciation. Securities in the portfolio that meet the requirements for qualified dividend income are taxed at the same federal tax rates applicable to long-term capital gains, which can create a favorable tax situation for shareholders.

The Fund is built on a foundation of fundamental research. An Asset Allocation Committee takes responsibility for allocating assets between income-producing securities recommended by the Neuberger Berman Research Department and real estate company securities — a structure that we believe provides shareholders with an added level of confidence.

Thank you for entrusting your hard-earned assets to Neuberger Berman. We will continue to work hard to preserve and grow your capital.

Sincerely,

Peter Sundman
Chairman of the Board
Neuberger Berman Dividend Advantage Fund Inc.

Dividend Advantage Fund Inc. Portfolio Commentary

For the fiscal year ended October 31, 2007, on a net asset value (NAV) basis, Neuberger Berman Dividend Advantage Fund Inc. provided a positive return, trailing the S&P 500 Index but outpacing the FTSE NAREIT Equity REITs Index.

The Fund includes a mix of 1) income-producing securities that are chosen by our in-house research department and a team of experienced portfolio managers and 2) real estate company securities. The portion of the portfolio driven by our in-house research seeks to invest a significant majority of its assets in "buy" rated stocks that have recently had a higher average dividend yield than that of the S&P 500. The remaining assets in this segment are chosen by a team of managers with experience selecting attractive income opportunities.

For the 12-month reporting period, the segment of the portfolio derived from our research department and portfolio management team provided strong returns, outperforming the S&P 500 Index. The index was down during three months— February, June and July. Within those three time periods, the portfolio segment outperformed, reflecting its defensive characteristics and providing a relative boost for the 12-month period. In terms of sectors, our sizable overweight in Utilities — a strongly performing area of the market for the period — proved beneficial, while Energy and some commodity related stocks enjoyed strong results. The weak performance of the Financial sector hampered returns of both the portfolio and the benchmark.

We continue to maintain a substantial weighting in Utilities due to what we believe are compelling dividend yields and strong earnings growth. As we have detailed in the past, stocks in this sector have undergone a sea change— both from their years as uninteresting, but steady, dividend payers and the relatively speculative days of early deregulation. Today, many utilities are run by seasoned managers with effective business plans, and are favored by healthy revenue streams driven by increasing electricity rates.

In the real estate segment of the portfolio, our holdings declined modestly and trailed the benchmark FTSE NAREIT Equity REITs Index, which was up slightly. Stock selection and an overweight in the Office sector were a drag on relative performance, as were underweights in the Specialty and Regional Mall sectors. Stock selection in the Diversified, Health Care and Industrial REITs sectors was beneficial to results.

Early in the 12-month period, the FTSE NAREIT Index provided favorable returns but declined substantially in June and July as the subprime mortgage debacle sparked investor concern that the economy could slide into recession and undermine commercial real estate fundamentals. Momentum investors, meanwhile, began rotating out of domestic yield-oriented sectors such as REITs and Utilities and into industry groups such as Information Technology and U.S. based multinationals believed to be prime beneficiaries of stronger international economic growth. Significant selling pressure also resulted from hedge funds unwinding large positions in REITs. Finally, merger and acquisition activity that had provided a strong tailwind for REITs diminished in the wake of the summer turbulence. A fall rally helped trim the losses, however, eventually leaving the index with, as noted, a modestly positive return.

Looking forward, we believe that REITs can deliver favorable returns in the coming fiscal year, supported by our expectations for above-average earnings growth and favorable yields. Although REITs are valued at the higher end of historical norms, they still trade at a roughly 10% discount to net asset value. We believe that a tight supply of credit will limit commercial real estate development, helping to preserve favorable supply/demand dynamics in many REIT sectors.

Sincerely,

Neuberger Berman

Notes to Schedule of Investments

†  Investments in equity securities by Neuberger Berman Dividend Advantage Fund Inc. (the "Fund") are valued at the latest sale price where that price is readily available; securities for which no sales were reported, unless otherwise noted, are valued at the last available bid price. Securities traded primarily on the NASDAQ Stock Market are normally valued by the Fund at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price ("NOCP") provided by NASDAQ each business day. The NOCP is the most recently reported price as of 4:00:02 p.m., Eastern time, unless that price is outside the range of the "inside" bid and asked prices (i.e., the bid and asked prices that dealers quote to each other when trading for their own accounts); in that case, NASDAQ will adjust the price to equal the inside bid or asked price, whichever is closer. Because of delays in reporting trade s, the NOCP may not be based on the price of the last trade to occur before the market closes. The Fund values all other securities, including securities for which the necessary last sale, asked and/or bid prices are not readily available, by methods the Board of Directors of the Fund (the "Board") has approved on the belief that they reflect fair value. Numerous factors may be considered when determining the fair value of a security, including available analyst, media or other reports, trading in futures or ADRs and whether the issuer of the security being fair valued has other securities outstanding. Foreign security prices are furnished by independent quotation services and expressed in local currency values. Foreign security prices are currently translated from the local currency into U.S. dollars using the exchange rate as of 4:00 p.m., Eastern time. The Board has approved the use of FT Interactive Data Corporation ("FT Interactive") to assist in determining the fair value of the Fund's foreign equity s ecurities when changes in the value of a certain index suggest that the closing prices on the foreign exchanges may no longer represent the amount that the Fund could expect to receive for those securities. In this event, FT Interactive will provide adjusted prices for certain foreign equity securities using a statistical analysis of historical correlations of multiple factors. In the absence of precise information about the market values of these foreign securities as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange, the Board has determined on the basis of available data that prices adjusted in this way are likely to be closer to the prices the Fund could realize on a current sale than are the prices of those securities established at the close of the foreign markets in which the securities primarily trade. However, fair value prices are necessarily estimates, and there is no assurance that such a price will be at or close to the price at which the security next trades. Short-term debt securities with less than 60 days until maturity may be valued at cost which, when combined with interest earned, approximates market value.

#  At cost, which approximates market value.

##  At October 31, 2007, the cost of investments for U.S. federal income tax purposes was $208,647,000. Gross unrealized appreciation of investments was $66,653,000 and gross unrealized depreciation of investments was $43,646,000, resulting in net unrealized appreciation of $23,007,000 based on cost for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

ØØ  All or a portion of this security is segregated as collateral for interest rate swap contracts.

‡  Managed by an affiliate of Neuberger Berman Management Inc. and could be deemed an affiliate of the Fund (see Notes A & E of Notes to Financial Statements).

@  Neuberger Berman Prime Money Fund ("Prime Money") is also managed by Neuberger Berman Management Inc. and may be considered an affiliate since it has the same officers, Board members, and investment manager as the Fund and because, at times, the Fund may own 5% or more of the outstanding voting securities of Prime Money (see Notes A & E of Notes to Financial Statements).

È  All or a portion of this security is on loan (see Note A of Notes to Financial Statements).

*  Security did not produce income during the last twelve months.

Notes to Financial Statements Dividend Advantage Fund Inc.

Note A—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:

1General: Neuberger Berman Dividend Advantage Fund Inc. (the "Fund") was organized as a Maryland corporation on January 29, 2004 as a non-diversified, closed-end management investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"). The Board of Directors of the Fund (the "Board") may classify or re-classify any unissued shares of capital stock into one or more classes of preferred stock without the approval of shareholders.

  The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires Neuberger Berman Management Inc. ("Management") to make estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

2Portfolio valuation: Investment securities are valued as indicated in the notes following the Schedule of Investments.

3  Securities transactions and investment income: Securities transactions are recorded on trade date for financial reporting purposes. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Interest income, including accretion of original issue discount, where applicable, and accretion of discount on short-term investments, if any, is recorded on the accrual basis. Realized gains and losses from securities transactions and foreign currency transactions, if any, are recorded on the basis of identified cost and stated separately in the Statement of Operations.

4  Income tax information: It is the policy of the Fund to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company by complying with the requirements of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all of its earnings to its shareholders. Therefore, no federal income or excise tax provision is required.

  Income distributions and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments of income and gains on various investment securities held by the Fund, timing differences and differing characterization of distributions made by the Fund as a whole.

  As determined on October 31, 2007, permanent differences resulting primarily from different book and tax accounting for income recognized on interest rate swaps and the character of distributions paid were reclassified at fiscal year-end. These reclassifications had no effect on net income, net asset value applicable to common shareholders or net asset value per common share of the Fund.

  The tax character of distributions paid during the years ended October 31, 2007 and October 31, 2006 was as follows:

				Distributions Paid From:
Ordinary Income				Long-Term Capital Gain				Tax Return of Capital				Total
2007		2006		2007		2006		2007		2006		2007		2006
$	4,345,325	$	9,900,305	$	18,644,986	$	10,899,234	$	—	$	—	$	22,990,311	$	20,799,539

  As of October 31, 2007, the components of distributable earnings (accumulated losses) on a U.S. federal income tax basis were as follows:

Undistributed Ordinary Income		Undistributed Long-Term Gain		Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation)		Loss Carryforwards and Deferrals		Total
$	—	$	21,325,950	$	23,192,487	$	—	$	44,518,437

13

  The difference between book basis and tax basis distributable earnings is attributable primarily to timing differences of distribution payments and income recognized on interest rate swaps.

5  Foreign taxes: Foreign taxes withheld represent amounts withheld by foreign tax authorities, net of refunds recoverable.

6  Distributions to shareholders: The Fund earns income, net of expenses, daily on its investments. It is the policy of the Fund to declare and pay quarterly distributions to common shareholders. The Fund has adopted a policy to pay common shareholders a stable quarterly distribution. The Fund's ability to satisfy its policy will depend on a number of factors, including the stability of income received from its investments, the availability of capital gains, distributions paid on preferred shares and the level of expenses. In an effort to maintain a stable distribution amount, the Fund may pay distributions consisting of net investment income, realized gains and paid-in-capital. There is no assurance that the Fund will always be able to pay distributions of a particular size, or that a distribution will consist solely of net investment incom e and realized capital gains. The composition of the Fund's distributions for the calendar year 2007 will be reported to Fund shareholders on IRS Form 1099DIV. The Fund may pay distributions in excess of those required by its stable distribution policy to avoid excise tax or to satisfy the requirements of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code. Distributions to common shareholders are recorded on the ex-date. Net realized capital gains, if any, will be offset to the extent of any available capital loss carryforwards. Any such offset will not reduce the level of the stable distribution paid by the Fund. Distributions to preferred shareholders are accrued and determined as described in Note A-8.

  The Fund invests a significant portion of its assets in securities issued by real estate companies, including real estate investment trusts ("REITs"). The distributions the Fund receives from REITs are generally comprised of income, capital gains, and return of capital, but the REITs do not report this information to the Fund until the following calendar year. At October 31, 2007, the Fund estimated these amounts within the financial statements since the information is not available from the REITs until after the Fund's fiscal year-end. For the year ended October 31, 2007, the character of distributions paid to shareholders is disclosed within the Statement of Changes and is also based on these estimates. All estimates are based upon REIT information sources available to the Fund together with actual IRS Forms 1099DIV received to date. Based on past experience it is possible that a portion of the Fund's distributions during the most recently completed fiscal year will be considered tax return of capital but the actual amount of tax return of capital, if any, is not determinable until after the Fund's fiscal year-end. After calendar year-end, when the Fund learns the nature of the distributions paid by REITs during that year, distributions previously identified as income are often recharacterized as return of capital and/or capital gain. After all applicable REITs have informed the Fund of the actual breakdown of distributions paid to the Fund during its fiscal year, estimates previously recorded are adjusted on the books of the Fund to reflect actual results. As a result, the composition of the Fund's distributions as reported herein may differ from the final composition determined after calendar year-end and reported to Fund shareholders on IRS Form 1099DIV.

  Subsequent to October 31, 2007, the Fund on November 15, 2007 declared a distribution to common shareholders in the amount of $0.30 per share payable December 17, 2007, to shareholders of record on November 26, 2007, with an ex-date of November 21, 2007.

7  Expense allocation: Certain expenses are applicable to multiple funds. Expenses directly attributable to the Fund are charged to the Fund. Expenses borne by the complex of related investment companies, which includes open-end and closed-end investment companies for which Management serves as investment manager, that are not directly attributed to the Fund are allocated among the Fund and the other investment companies in the complex or series thereof on the basis of relative net assets, except where a more appropriate allocation of expenses to each investment company in the complex or series thereof can otherwise be made fairly.

8  Redeemable preferred shares: On March 4, 2004, the Fund re-classified 4,800 unissued shares of capital stock as Series A Auction Market Preferred Shares and Series B Auction Market Preferred Shares ("AMPS"). On June 28, 2004, the Fund issued 1,050 Series A AMPS and 1,050 Series B AMPS. All AMPS have a liquidation preference of $25,000 per share plus any accumulated unpaid distributions, whether or not earned or declared by the Fund, but excluding interest thereon ("Liquidation Value").

14

  Except when the Fund has declared a special rate period, distributions to preferred shareholders, which are cumulative, are accrued daily and paid every 7 days for Series A AMPS and every 28 days for Series B AMPS. Distribution rates are reset every 7 days for Series A AMPS and every 28 days for Series B AMPS based on the results of an auction, except during special rate periods. For the year ended October 31, 2007, distribution rates ranged from 5.00% to 6.25% for Series A and 5.19% to 6.50% for Series B AMPS. The Fund declared distributions to preferred shareholders for the period November 1, 2007 to November 30, 2007 of $109,521 and $114,008 for Series A and Series B AMPS, respectively.

  The Fund may redeem AMPS, in whole or in part, on the second business day preceding any distribution payment date at Liquidation Value. The Fund is also subject to certain restrictions relating to the AMPS. Failure to comply with these restrictions could preclude the Fund from declaring any distributions to common shareholders or repurchasing common shares and/or could trigger the mandatory redemption of AMPS at Liquidation Value. The holders of AMPS are entitled to one vote per share and will vote with holders of common shares as a single class, except that the AMPS will vote separately as a class on certain matters, as required by law or the Fund's charter. The holders of the AMPS, voting as a separate class, are entitled at all times to elect two Directors of the Fund, and to elect a majority of the Directors of the Fund if the Fund fails to pay distributions on AMPS for two consecutive years.

9  Interest rate swaps: The Fund may enter into interest rate swap transactions, with institutions that Management has determined are creditworthy, to reduce the risk that an increase in short-term interest rates could reduce common share net earnings as a result of leverage. Under the terms of the interest rate swap contracts, the Fund agrees to pay the swap counter party a fixed-rate payment in exchange for the counter party's paying the Fund a variable-rate payment that is intended to approximate all or a portion of the Fund's variable-rate payment obligation on the Fund's AMPS. The fixed-rate and variable-rate payment flows are netted against each other, with the difference being paid by one party to the other on a monthly basis. The Fund segregates cash or liquid securities having a value at least equal to the Fund's net payment obligat ions under any swap transaction, marked to market daily.

  Risks may arise if the counter party to a swap contract fails to comply with the terms of its contract. The loss incurred by the failure of a counter party is generally limited to the net interest payment to be received by the Fund and/or the termination value at the end of the contract. Additionally, risks may arise from movements in interest rates unanticipated by Management.

  Periodic expected interim net interest payments or receipts on the swaps are recorded as an adjustment to unrealized gains/losses, along with the fair value of the future periodic payment streams on the swaps. The unrealized gains/losses associated with the periodic interim net interest payments are reclassified to realized gains/losses in conjunction with the actual net receipt or payment of such amounts. The reclassifications do not impact the Fund's total net assets applicable to common shareholders or its total net increase (decrease) in net assets applicable to common shareholders resulting from operations. At October 31, 2007, the Fund had outstanding interest rate swap contracts as follows:

				Rate Type
Swap Counter Party	Notional Amount		Termination Date	Fixed-rate Payments Made by the Fund			Variable-rate Payments Received by the Fund(1)			Accrued Net Interest Receivable (Payable)		Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation)		Total Fair Value
Merrill Lynch	$	40,000,000	July 16, 2008		3.818	%		5.060	%	$	22,080	$	186,299	$	208,379

(1)  30 day LIBOR (London Interbank Offered Rate) at October 12, 2007.

10  Security lending: A third party, eSecLending, assists the Fund in conducting a bidding process to identify agents/principals that would pay a guaranteed amount to the Fund in consideration of the Fund entering into an exclusive securities lending arrangement.

15

  Through a bidding process in August 2006, and in accordance with an Exemptive Order issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Fund selected Neuberger Berman, LLC ("Neuberger"), an affiliate of the Fund, to be its exclusive lending agent for a specified period. Under the agreement entered into between the Fund and Neuberger, Neuberger pays a guaranteed amount to the Fund. This arrangement will change as the result of an auction held on October 31, 2007.

  Under the securities lending arrangement, the Fund receives cash collateral at the beginning of each transaction equal to at least 102% of the prior day's market value of the loaned securities (105% in the case of international securities). The Fund may invest all the cash collateral in Neuberger Berman Securities Lending Quality Fund, LLC ("Quality Fund"), a fund managed by Lehman Brothers Asset Management LLC, an affiliate of Management.

  Net income from the lending program represents the guaranteed amount plus income earned on the cash collateral invested in Quality Fund or in other investments, less cash collateral fees and other expenses associated with the loans. For the year ended October 31, 2007, the Fund received net income under the securities lending arrangement of approximately $44,909, which is reflected in the Statement of Operations under the caption "Income from securities loaned-net." For the year ended October 31, 2007, "Income from securities loaned-net" consisted of approximately $1,053,283 in income earned on cash collateral and guaranteed amounts (including approximately $1,012,536 of interest income earned from the Quality Fund and $40,747 in guaranteed amounts received from Neuberger), less fees and expenses paid of approximately $1,008,374 (including approximately $24,984 retained by Neuberger).

11  Repurchase agreements: The Fund may enter into repurchase agreements with institutions that Management has determined are creditworthy. Each repurchase agreement is recorded at cost. The Fund requires that the securities purchased in a repurchase agreement be transferred to the custodian in a manner sufficient to enable the Fund to assert a perfected security interest in those securities in the event of a default under the repurchase agreement. The Fund monitors, on a daily basis, the value of the securities transferred to ensure that their value, including accrued interest, is greater than amounts owed to the Fund under each such repurchase agreement.

12  Transactions with other funds managed by Neuberger Berman Management Inc.: Pursuant to an exemptive rule, the Fund may invest in a money market fund managed by Management or an affiliate. The Fund invests in Neuberger Berman Prime Money Fund ("Prime Money"), as approved by the Board. Prime Money seeks to provide the highest available current income consistent with safety and liquidity. For any cash that the Fund invests in Prime Money, Management waives a portion of its management fee equal to the management fee it receives from Prime Money on those assets (the "Arrangement"). For the year ended October 31, 2007, management fees waived under this Arrangement amounted to $5,710 and are reflected in the Statement of Operations under the caption "Investment management fees waived." For the year ended October 31, 2007, income earned under th is Arrangement amounted to $363,601, and is reflected in the Statement of Operations under the caption "Income from investments in affiliated issuers."

13  Concentration of risk: Under normal market conditions, the Fund's investments will be primarily concentrated in 1) income-producing securities recommended by the Neuberger Berman Research Department that, at the time of investment, have a dividend yield greater than the average dividend yield of the S&P 500 Composite Stock Index and 2) income-producing common equity securities, preferred equity securities, securities convertible into equity securities and non-convertible debt securities issued by companies deriving the majority of their revenue from the ownership, construction, financing, management and/or sale of commercial, industrial, and/or residential real estate. The value of the Fund's shares may fluctuate more due to economic, legal, cultural, geopolitical or technological developments affecting the United States real estate industry, or a segment of the real estate industry in which the Fund owns a substantial position, than would the shares of a fund not concentrated in the real estate industry.

14  Indemnifications: Like many other companies, the Fund's organizational documents provide that its officers and directors are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Fund. In addition, both in some of its principal service contracts and in the normal course of its business, the Fund enters

16

into contracts that provide indemnifications to other parties for certain types of losses or liabilities. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this could involve future claims against the Fund.

Note B—Management Fees, Administration Fees, and Other Transactions With Affiliates:

  The Fund retains Management as its investment manager under a Management Agreement. For such investment management services, the Fund pays Management a fee at the annual rate of 0.60% of its average daily Managed Assets. Managed Assets equal the total assets of the Fund, less liabilities other than the aggregate indebtedness entered into for purposes of leverage. For purposes of calculating Managed Assets, the Liquidation Value of any AMPS outstanding is not considered a liability.

  Management has contractually agreed to waive a portion of the management fees it is entitled to receive from the Fund at the following annual rates:

Year Ended October 31,		% of Average Daily Managed Assets
	2007 – 2008		0.20
	2009		0.14
	2010		0.07

  Management has not contractually agreed to waive any portion of its fees beyond October 31, 2010.

  For the year ended October 31, 2007, such waived fees amounted to $414,191.

  The Fund retains Management as its administrator under an Administration Agreement. The Fund pays Management an administration fee at the annual rate of 0.25% of its average daily Managed Assets under this agreement. Additionally, Management retains State Street Bank and Trust Company ("State Street") as its sub-administrator under a Sub-Administration Agreement. Management pays State Street a fee for all services received under the agreement.

  Management and Neuberger, a member firm of the New York Stock Exchange and sub-adviser to the Fund, are wholly-owned subsidiaries of Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. ("Lehman"), a publicly-owned holding company. Neuberger is retained by Management to furnish it with investment recommendations and research information without added cost to the Fund. Several individuals who are officers and/or Directors of the Fund are also employees of Neuberger and/or Management.

  The Fund has entered into a commission recapture program, which enables it to pay some of its operational expenses by recouping a portion of the commissions it pays to a broker that is not a related party of the Fund. Pursuant to the agreement, brokers pay recaptured commissions to the Fund's custodian and the custodian directs these amounts toward payment of expenses such as custodial, transfer agency or accounting services. For the year ended October 31, 2007, the impact of this arrangement was a reduction of expenses of $26,420.

  The Fund has an expense offset arrangement in connection with its custodian contract. For the year ended October 31, 2007, the impact of this arrangement was a reduction of expenses of $3,748.

  In connection with the settlement of each AMPS auction, the Fund pays, through the auction agent, a service fee to each participating broker-dealer based upon the aggregate liquidation preference of the AMPS held by the broker-dealer's customers. For any auction preceding a rate period of less than one year, the service fee is paid at the annual rate of 1/4 of 1%; for any auction preceding a rate period of one year or more, the service fee is paid at a rate agreed to by the Fund and the broker-dealer.

  In order to satisfy rating agencies' requirements, the Fund is required to provide each rating agency a report on a monthly basis verifying that the Fund is maintaining eligible assets having a discounted value equal to or greater than the Preferred Shares Basic Maintenance Amount, which is a minimum level set by each rating agency as one of the conditions to maintain the AAA/Aaa rating on the AMPS. "Discounted value" refers to the fact that the rating agencies require the Fund, in performing this calculation, to discount portfolio securities below their face value, at

17

rates determined by the rating agencies. The Fund pays a fee to State Street for the preparation of this report which is reflected in the Statement of Operations under the caption "Basic maintenance expense."

Note C—Securities Transactions:

  During the year ended October 31, 2007, there were purchase and sale transactions (excluding short-term securities and interest rate swap contracts) of $189,109,994 and $210,499,503, respectively.

  During the year ended October 31, 2007, brokerage commissions on securities transactions amounted to $428,341, of which Neuberger received $3,297, Lehman Brothers Inc. received $81,593, and other brokers received $343,451.

Note D—Capital:

  At October 31, 2007, the common shares outstanding and the common shares of the Fund owned by Neuberger were as follows:

Common Shares Outstanding		Common Shares Owned by Neuberger
	5,805,236		5,236

  There were no transactions in common shares for the years ended October 31, 2007 and October 31, 2006.

Note E—Investments In Affiliates:

Name of Issuer	Balance of Shares Held October 31, 2006		Gross Purchases and Additions		Gross Sales and Reductions		Balance of Shares Held October 31, 2007		Value October 31, 2007		Income from Investments in Affiliated Issuers Included in Total Income
Neuberger Berman Prime Money Fund Trust Class*		2,515,368		126,196,164		114,452,643		14,258,889	$	14,258,889	$	363,601
Neuberger Berman Securities Lending Quality Fund, LLC**		14,982,301		234,236,458		229,821,858		19,396,901		19,396,901		1,012,536
Total									$	33,655,790	$	1,376,137

*  Prime Money is also managed by Management and may be considered an affiliate since it has the same officers, Board members, and investment manager as the Fund and because, at times, the Fund may own 5% or more of the outstanding voting securities of Prime Money.

**  Quality Fund, a fund managed by Lehman Brothers Asset Management LLC, an affiliate of Management, is used to invest cash the Fund receives as collateral for securities loans as approved by the Board. Because all shares of Quality Fund are held by funds in the related investment management complex, Quality Fund may be considered an affiliate of the Fund.

Note F—Recent Accounting Pronouncements:

  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 clarifies the accounting for income taxes, by prescribing a minimum recognition threshold a tax position is required to meet before being recognized in the financial statements. FIN 48 requires that a "more-likely-than-not" threshold be met before the benefit of a tax position may be recognized in the financial statements and prescribes how such benefit

18

should be measured. 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. The Securities and Exchange Commission has permitted investment companies to delay implementation of FIN 48. The Fund will have until April 30, 2008 to implement FIN 48. At this time, Management is evaluating the implications of FIN 48 and its impact in the financial statements has not yet been determined.

  In September 2006, FASB issued FASB Statement No. 157, "Fair Value Measurement" ("SFAS 157"), which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Management believes the adoption of SFAS 157 will not have a material impact on the Fund's financial positions or results of operations.

Notes to Financial Highlights Dividend Advantage Fund Inc.

†   Total return based on per share net asset value reflects the effects of changes in net asset value on the performance of the Fund during each fiscal period. Total return based on per share market value assumes the purchase of common shares at the market price on the first day and sales of common shares at the market price on the last day of the period indicated. Dividends and distributions, if any, are assumed to be reinvested at prices obtained under the Fund's distribution reinvestment plan. Results represent past performance and do not guarantee future results. Current returns may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. Investment returns may fluctuate and shares when sold may be worth more or less than original cost. Total return would have been lower if Management had not waived a portion of the investment management fee.

#  The Fund is required to calculate an expense ratio without taking into consideration any expense reductions related to expense offset arrangements.

‡  After waiver of a portion of the investment management fee by Management. Had Management not undertaken such action, the annualized ratios of net expenses to average daily net assets applicable to common shareholders would have been:

Year Ended October 31,									Period from March 30, 2004 to October 31,
2007			2006			2005			2004
	1.44	%		1.50	%		1.57	%		1.38	%

^  The date investment operations commenced.

*  Annualized.

**  Not annualized.

@  Calculated by subtracting the Fund's total liabilities (excluding accumulated unpaid distributions on AMPS) from the Fund's total assets and dividing by the number of AMPS outstanding.

††  Expense ratios do not include the effect of distributions to holders of AMPS. Income ratios include income earned on assets attributable to AMPS outstanding.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of
Neuberger Berman Dividend Advantage Fund Inc.

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Neuberger Berman Dividend Advantage Fund Inc. (the "Fund"), including the schedule of investments, as of October 31, 2007, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statement of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated therein. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund's 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 Fund's 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 Fund's 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 sig nificant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of October 31, 2007, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers or by other appropriate auditing procedures where replies from brokers were not received. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Neuberger Berman Dividend Advantage Fund Inc., at October 31, 2007, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and its financial highlights for the periods indicated therein, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Distribution Reinvestment Plan

The Bank of New York ("Plan Agent") will act as Plan Agent for shareholders who have not elected in writing to receive dividends and distributions in cash (each a "Participant"), will open an account for each Participant under the Distribution Reinvestment Plan ("Plan") in the same name as their then current Shares are registered, and will put the Plan into effect for each Participant as of the first record date for a dividend or capital gains distribution.

Whenever the Fund declares a dividend or distribution with respect to the common stock of the Fund ("Shares"), each Participant will receive such dividends and distributions in additional Shares, including fractional Shares acquired by the Plan Agent and credited to each Participant's account. If on the payment date for a cash dividend or distribution, the net asset value is equal to or less than the market price per Share plus estimated brokerage commissions, the Plan Agent shall automatically receive such Shares, including fractions, for each Participant's account. Except in the circumstances described in the next paragraph, the number of additional Shares to be credited to each Participant's account shall be determined by dividing the dollar amount of the dividend or distribution payable on their Shares by the greater of the net asset value per Share determined as of the date of purchase or 95% of the then current market pric e per Share on the payment date.

Should the net asset value per Share exceed the market price per Share plus estimated brokerage commissions on the payment date for a cash dividend or distribution, the Plan Agent or a broker-dealer selected by the Plan Agent shall endeavor, for a purchase period lasting until the last business day before the next date on which the Shares trade on an "ex-dividend" basis, but in no event, except as provided below, more than 30 days after the payment date, to apply the amount of such dividend or distribution on each Participant's Shares (less their pro rata share of brokerage commissions incurred with respect to the Plan Agent's open-market purchases in connection with the reinvestment of such dividend or distribution) to purchase Shares on the open market for each Participant's acc ount. No such purchases may be made more than 30 days after the payment date for such dividend or distribution except where temporary curtailment or suspension of purchase is necessary to comply with applicable provisions of federal securities laws. If, at the close of business on any day during the purchase period the net asset value per Share equals or is less than the market price per Share plus estimated brokerage commissions, the Plan Agent will not make any further open-market purchases in connection with the reinvestment of such dividend or distribution. If the Plan Agent is unable to invest the full dividend or distribution amount through open-market purchases during the purchase period, the Plan Agent shall request that, with respect to the uninvested portion of such dividend or distribution amount, the Fund issue new Shares at the close of business on the earlier of the last day of the purchase period or the first day during the purchase period on which the net asset value per Share equals or is le ss than the market price per Share, plus estimated brokerage commissions, such Shares to be issued in accordance with the terms specified in the third paragraph hereof. These newly issued Shares will be valued at the then-current market price per Share at the time such Shares are to be issued.

For purposes of making the reinvestment purchase comparison under the Plan, (a) the market price of the Shares on a particular date shall be the last sales price on the New York Stock Exchange (or if the Shares are not listed on the New York Stock Exchange, such other exchange on which the Shares are principally traded) on that date, or, if there is no sale on such Exchange (or if not so listed, in the over-the-counter market) on that date, then the mean between the closing bid and asked quotations for such Shares on such Exchange on such date and (b) the net asset value per Share on a particular date shall be the net asset value per Share most recently calculated by or on behalf of the Fund. All dividends, distributions and other payments (whether made in cash or Shares) shall be made net of any applicable withholding tax.

Open-market purchases provided for above may be made on any securities exchange where the Fund's Shares are traded, in the over-the-counter market or in negotiated transactions and may be on such terms as to price, delivery and otherwise as the Plan Agent shall determine. Each Participant's uninvested funds held by the Plan Agent will not bear interest, and it is understood that, in any event, the Plan Agent shall have no liability in connection with any inability to purchase Shares within 30 days after the initial date of such purchase as herein provided, or with the timing of any purchases effected. The Plan Agent shall have no responsibility as to the value of the Shares acquired for each Participant's account. For the purpose of cash investments, the Plan Agent may commingle each Participant's funds with those of other shareholders of the Fund

23

for whom the Plan Agent similarly acts as agent, and the average price (including brokerage commissions) of all Shares purchased by the Plan Agent as Plan Agent shall be the price per Share allocable to each Participant in connection therewith.

The Plan Agent may hold each Participant's Shares acquired pursuant to the Plan together with the Shares of other shareholders of the Fund acquired pursuant to the Plan in noncertificated form in the Plan Agent's name or that of the Plan Agent's nominee. The Plan Agent will forward to each Participant any proxy solicitation material and will vote any Shares so held for each Participant only in accordance with the instructions set forth on proxies returned by the Participant to the Fund.

The Plan Agent will confirm to each Participant each acquisition made for their account as soon as practicable but not later than 60 days after the date thereof. Although each Participant may from time to time have an undivided fractional interest (computed to three decimal places) in a Share, no certificates for a fractional Share will be issued. However, dividends and distributions on fractional Shares will be credited to each Participant's account. In the event of termination of a Participant's account under the Plan, the Plan Agent will adjust for any such undivided fractional interest in cash at the market value of the Shares at the time of termination, less the pro rata expense of any sale required to make such an adjustment.

Any Share dividends or split Shares distributed by the Fund on Shares held by the Plan Agent for Participants will be credited to their accounts. In the event that the Fund makes available to its shareholders rights to purchase additional Shares or other securities, the Shares held for each Participant under the Plan will be added to other Shares held by the Participant in calculating the number of rights to be issued to each Participant.

The Plan Agent's service fee for handling capital gains distributions or income dividends will be paid by the Fund. Participants will be charged their pro rata share of brokerage commissions on all open-market purchases.

Each Participant may terminate their account under the Plan by notifying the Plan Agent in writing. Such termination will be effective immediately if the Participant's notice is received by the Plan Agent not less than ten days prior to any dividend or distribution record date, otherwise such termination will be effective the first trading day after the payment date for such dividend or distribution with respect to any subsequent dividend or distribution. The Plan may be terminated by the Plan Agent or the Fund upon notice in writing mailed to each Participant at least 30 days prior to any record date for the payment of any dividend or distribution by the Fund.

These terms and conditions may be amended or supplemented by the Plan Agent or the Fund at any time or times but, except when necessary or appropriate to comply with applicable law or the rules or policies of the Securities and Exchange Commission or any other regulatory authority, only by mailing to each Participant appropriate written notice at least 30 days prior to the effective date thereof. The amendment or supplement shall be deemed to be accepted by each Participant unless, prior to the effective date thereof, the Plan Agent receives written notice of the termination of their account under the Plan. Any such amendment may include an appointment by the Plan Agent in its place and stead of a successor Plan Agent under these terms and conditions, with full power and authority to perform all or any of the acts to be performed by the Plan Agent under these terms and conditions. Upon any such appointment of any Plan Agent for the purpose of receiving dividends and distributions, the Fund will be authorized to pay to such successor Plan Agent, for each Participant's account, all dividends and distributions payable on Shares held in their name or under the Plan for retention or application by such successor Plan Agent as provided in these terms and conditions.

The Plan Agent shall at all times act in good faith and agrees to use its best efforts within reasonable limits to ensure the accuracy of all services performed under this Agreement and to comply with applicable law, but assumes no responsibility and shall not be liable for loss or damage due to errors unless such error is caused by the Plan Agent's negligence, bad faith, or willful misconduct or that of its employees.

These terms and conditions shall be governed by the laws of the State of Maryland.

For Neuberger Berman Dividend Advantage Fund Inc., 25.17% of dividends distributed during the fiscal year ended October 31, 2007 qualifies for the dividends received deduction for corporate shareholders.

Board Consideration of the Management and Sub-Advisory Agreements

At a meeting held on September 27, 2007, the Board of Directors ("Board") of Neuberger Berman Dividend Advantage Fund Inc. ("Fund"), including the Directors who are not "interested persons" of Neuberger Berman Management Inc. ("Management") or the Fund ("Independent Fund Directors"), approved the continuance of the Fund's Management and Sub-Advisory Agreements ("Agreements").

In evaluating the Agreements, the Board, including the Independent Fund Directors, reviewed materials furnished by Management and Neuberger Berman, LLC ("Neuberger") in response to questions submitted by counsel to the Independent Fund Directors, and met with senior representatives of Management and Neuberger regarding their personnel and operations. The Independent Fund Directors were advised by counsel that is experienced in Investment Company Act of 1940 matters and that is independent of Management and Neuberger. The Independent Fund Directors received a memorandum from independent counsel discussing the legal standards for their consideration of the proposed continuance of the Agreements. They met with such counsel separately from representatives of Management to discuss the annual contract review. The annual contract review extends over two regular meetings of the Board to ensure that Management and Neuberger have time to respond to any questions the Independent Fund Directors may have on their initial review of the report and that the Independent Fund Directors have time to consider those responses. In addition, during this process, the Board held a separate meeting devoted to reviewing and discussing Fund performance.

The Board considered the following factors, among others, in connection with its approval of the continuance of the Agreements: (1) the nature, extent, and quality of the services provided by Management and Neuberger; (2) the performance of the Fund compared to relevant market indices and a peer group of investment companies; (3) the costs of the services provided and profits or losses historically realized by Management and its affiliates from their relationship with the Fund; (4) the extent to which economies of scale might be realized as the Fund grows; and (5) whether fee levels reflect any such potential economies of scale for the benefit of investors in the Fund. In their deliberations, the Board members did not identify any particular information that was all-important or controlling, and each Director may have attributed different weights to the various factors.

The Board evaluated the terms of the Agreements, the overall fairness of the Agreements to the Fund and whether the Agreements were in the best interests of the Fund and its shareholders.

With respect to the nature, extent and quality of the services provided, the Board considered the performance of the Fund and the experience and staffing of the portfolio management and investment research personnel who perform services for the Fund. The Board noted that Management also provides certain administrative services, including fund accounting and compliance oversight. The Board also considered Management's and Neuberger's policies and practices regarding brokerage and the quality of brokerage execution obtained by Management. The Board's Portfolio Transactions and Pricing Committee from time to time reviews the quality of the brokerage services that Neuberger and Lehman Brothers Inc. provide, and periodically reviews studies by an independent firm engaged to review and evaluate the quality of brokerage execution received by the Fund. The Board also reviewed whether Management and Neuberger used brokers to execute Fund transactions that provide research and other services to Management and Neuberger, and the types of benefits potentially derived by Management, Neuberger, the Fund and other clients of Management and Neuberger from such services. In addition, the Board noted the positive compliance history of Management and Neuberger, as each firm has been free of significant compliance problems.

With respect to the performance of the Fund, the Board considered the performance of the Fund on both a market return and net asset value basis relative to its benchmark and a peer group of investment companies pursuing broadly similar strategies. The Board also considered performance in relation to the degree of risk undertaken by the portfolio managers.

With respect to the overall fairness of the Agreements, the Board considered the fee structure for the Fund under the Agreements as compared to a peer group of comparable funds and fall-out benefits likely to accrue to Management or Neuberger or their affiliates from their relationship with the Fund. The Board also considered the profitability of Management and its affiliates from their association with the Fund.

The Board reviewed a comparison of the Fund's management fee and overall expense ratio to a peer group of broadly comparable funds. With regard to the sub-advisory fee paid to Neuberger, the Board noted that this fee is "at cost." In addition, the Board considered the contractual waiver of a portion of the management fee undertaken by Management.

The Board considered whether there were other funds that were advised or sub-advised by Management or its affiliates or separate accounts managed by Management or its affiliates with similar investment objectives, policies and strategies as the Fund. The Board noted that there were no such comparable funds or separate accounts.

The Board also evaluated any apparent or anticipated economies of scale in relation to the services Management provides to the Fund. The Board considered that the Fund is a closed-end fund that is not continuously offering shares and that, without daily inflows and outflows of capital, there are limited opportunities for significant economies of scale to be realized by Management in managing the Fund's assets.

In concluding that the benefits accruing to Management and its affiliates by virtue of their relationship to the Fund were reasonable in comparison with the benefits accruing to the Fund, the Board reviewed specific data as to Management's profit on the Fund for a recent period and the trend in profit or loss over time. The Board also carefully examined Management's cost allocation methodology and in recent years had an independent consultant review the methodology. It also reviewed an analysis from an independent data service on profitability margins in the investment management industry. The Board recognized that Management should be entitled to earn a reasonable level of profits for services it provides to the Fund and, based on its review, concluded that Management's level of profitability was not excessive.

Conclusions

In approving the Agreements, the Board concluded that the terms of each Agreement are fair and reasonable and that approval of the Agreements is in the best interests of the Fund and its shareholders. In reaching this determination, the Board considered that Management and Neuberger could be expected to provide a high level of service to the Fund; that the performance of the Fund was satisfactory over time; that the Fund's fee structure appeared to the Board to be reasonable given the nature and quality of services provided; and that the benefits accruing to Management and its affiliates by virtue of their relationship to the Fund were reasonable in comparison with the benefits accruing to the Fund.

The aggregate fees billed to the Registrant for assurance and related services by E&Y that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit of the Registrant’s financial statements and are not reported above in Audit Fees were $6,250 and $6,250 for the fiscal years ended 2006 and 2007, respectively.  The nature of the services provided involved agreed upon procedures relating to the Preferred Shares.  The Audit Committee approved 0% and 0% of these services provided by E&Y for the fiscal years ended 2006 and 2007, respectively, pursuant to the waiver provisions of Rule 2-01(c)(7)(i)(C) of Regulation S-X.

The fees billed to other entities in the investment company complex for assurance and related services by E&Y that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit that the Audit Committee was required to approve because the engagement related directly to the operations and financial reporting of the Registrant were $0 and $0 for the fiscal years ended 2006 and 2007, respectively.  

(c) Tax Fees

The aggregate fees billed to the Registrant for professional services rendered by E&Y for tax compliance, tax advice, and tax planning were $9,500 and $9,700 for the fiscal years ended 2006 and 2007, respectively.  The nature of the services provided comprised tax compliance, tax advice, and tax planning.  The Audit Committee approved 0% and 0% of these services provided by E&Y for the fiscal years ended 2006 and 2007, respectively, pursuant to the waiver provisions of Rule 2-01(c)(7)(i)(C) of Regulation S-X.

(d) All Other Fees

The aggregate fees billed to the Registrant for products and services provided by E&Y, other than services reported in Audit Fees, Audit-Related Fees, and Tax Fees were $0 and $0 for the fiscal years ended 2006 and 2007, respectively.

(e) Audit Committee’s Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures

(1) The Audit Committee’s pre-approval policies and procedures for the Registrant to engage an accountant to render audit and non-audit services delegate to each member of the Committee the power to pre-approve services between meetings of the Committee.

(2) None of the services described in paragraphs (b) through (d) above were approved by the Audit Committee pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(i)(C) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X.

(h) The Audit Committee of the Board considered whether the provision of non-audit services rendered to the Registrant’s investment adviser and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the adviser that provides ongoing services to the Registrant that were not pre-approved by the Audit Committee because the engagement did not relate directly to the operations and financial reporting of the Registrant is compatible with maintaining E&Y’s independence.

Item 5. Audit Committee of Listed Registrants

The Board has established a separately-designated standing audit committee established in accordance with Section 3(a)(58)(A) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act").  Its members are  Martha C. Goss, Howard A. Mileaf, George W. Morriss, Cornelius T. Ryan (Chairman), Tom D. Seip, and Peter P. Trapp.

Item 6. Schedule of Investments

The complete schedule of investments for the Fund is disclosed in the Registrant’s Annual Report, which is included as Item 1 of this Form N-CSR.

Item 7. Disclosure of Proxy Voting Policies and Procedures for Closed-End Management Investment Companies

The Board has delegated to Neuberger Berman Management Inc. (“NB Management”) the responsibility to vote proxies related to the securities held in the Registrant’s portfolio. Under this authority, NB Management is required by the Board to vote proxies related to portfolio securities in the best interests of the Registrant and its stockholders. The Board permits NB Management to contract with a third party to obtain proxy voting and related services, including research of current issues.

NB Management has implemented written Proxy Voting Policies and Procedures (“Proxy Voting Policy”) that are designed to reasonably ensure that NB Management votes proxies prudently and in the best interest of its advisory clients for whom NB Management has voting authority, including the Registrant. The Proxy Voting Policy also describes how NB Management addresses any conflicts that may arise between its interests and those of its clients with respect to proxy voting.

NB Management’s Proxy Committee is responsible for developing, authorizing, implementing and updating the Proxy Voting Policy, overseeing the proxy voting process and engaging and overseeing any independent third-party vendors as voting delegate to review, monitor and/or vote proxies. In order to apply the Proxy Voting Policy noted above in a timely and consistent manner, NB Management utilizes Glass, Lewis & Co. (“Glass Lewis”) to vote proxies in accordance with NB Management’s voting guidelines.

NB Management's guidelines adopt the voting recommendations of Glass Lewis. NB Management retains final authority and fiduciary responsibility for proxy voting. NB Management believes that this process is reasonably designed to address material conflicts of interest that may arise between NB Management and a client as to how proxies are voted.

In the event that an investment professional at NB Management believes that it is in the best interests of a client or clients to vote proxies in a manner inconsistent with NB Management’s proxy voting guidelines or in a manner inconsistent with Glass Lewis recommendations, the Proxy Committee will review information submitted by the investment professional to determine that there is no material conflict of interest between NB Management and the client with respect to the voting of the proxy in that manner.

If the Proxy Committee determines that the voting of a proxy as recommended by the investment professional presents a material conflict of interest between NB Management and the client or clients with respect to the voting of the proxy, the Proxy Committee shall: (i) take no further action, in which case Glass Lewis shall vote such proxy in accordance with the proxy voting guidelines or as Glass Lewis recommends; (ii) disclose such conflict to the client or clients and obtain written direction from the client as to how to vote the proxy; (iii) suggest that the client or clients engage another party to determine how to vote the proxy; or (iv) engage another independent third party to determine how to vote the proxy.

Item 8. Portfolio Managers of Closed-End Management Investment Companies

(a)(1) The following Portfolio Managers have day-to-day management responsibility of the Registrant’s portfolio as of the date of the filing of this Form N-CSR.

Steven R. Brown is a Vice President of NB Management and a Managing Director of Neuberger Berman. He has been a Portfolio Manager with the firm since 2002 and has been part of the Registrant’s management team since its inception. From 1997 to 2002, Mr. Brown was a co-portfolio manager at an investment firm specializing in securities of REITs.

Richard Levine is a Vice President of NB Management and a Managing Director of Neuberger Berman. He has been a Portfolio Manager with the firm since 1989 and has been part of the Registrant’s management team since its inception.

Michelle Stein is a Vice President of NB Management and a Managing Director of Neuberger Berman.  She has been a Portfolio Manager at Neuberger Berman since 1983 and has been part of the Registrant’s management team since its inception.

(a)(2) The table below describes the other accounts for which each Portfolio Manager has day-to-day management responsibility as of October 31, 2007.

Conflicts of Interest

Actual or apparent conflicts of interest may arise when a Portfolio Manager has day-to-day management responsibilities with respect to more than one fund or other account. The management of multiple funds and accounts (including proprietary accounts) may give rise to actual or potential conflicts of interest if the funds and accounts have different or similar objectives, benchmarks, time horizons, and fees, as the Portfolio Manager must allocate his time and investment ideas across multiple funds and accounts.  The Portfolio Manager may execute transactions for another fund or account that may adversely impact the value of securities held by the Registrant, and which may include transactions that are directly contrary to the positions taken by the Registrant.  For example, a Portfolio Manager may engage in short sales of securities for another account that are the same type of securities in which the Registrant also invests.  In such a case, the Portfolio Manager could be seen as harming the performance of the Registrant for the benefit of the account engaging in short sales if the short sales cause the market value of the securities to fall.  Additionally, if a Portfolio Manager identifies a limited investment opportunity that may be suitable for more than one fund or other account, Registrant may not be able to take full advantage of that opportunity.  If one account were to buy or sell portfolio securities shortly before another account bought or sold the same securities, it could affect the price paid or received by the second account.  Securities selected for funds or accounts other than the Registrant may outperform the securities selected for the Registrant.  Finally, a conflict of interest may arise if NB Management and a Portfolio Manager have a financial incentive to favor one account over another, such as a performance-based management fee that applies to one account but not the Registrant or other accounts for which the Portfolio Manager is responsible.

NB Management, Neuberger Berman, LLC and the Registrant have adopted certain compliance procedures which are designed to address these types of conflicts. However, there is no guarantee that such procedures will detect each and every situation in which a conflict arises.

 (a)(3) Compensation (as of October 31, 2007)

A portion of the compensation paid to each Portfolio Manager for management of the mutual funds in the fund family is determined by comparisons to pre-determined peer groups and benchmarks, as opposed to a system dependent on a percent of management fees. The Portfolio Managers are paid a base salary that is not dependent on performance.  Each Portfolio Manager also has a “target bonus,” which is set each year and can be increased or decreased prior to payment based in part on performance measured against the relevant peer group and benchmark.  Performance is measured on a three-year rolling average in order to emphasize longer-term performance.  There is also a subjective component to determining the bonus, which consists of the following factors: (i) the individual’s willingness to work with the marketing and sales groups; (ii) his or her effectiveness in building a franchise; an d (iii) client servicing.  Senior management determines this component in appropriate cases.  There are additional components that comprise the Portfolio Managers’ compensation packages, including:  (i) whether the Portfolio Manager was a partner/principal of Neuberger Berman prior to Neuberger Berman Inc.’s initial public offering; (ii) for more recent hires, incentives that may have been negotiated at the time the Portfolio Manager joined the Neuberger Berman complex; and  (iii) the total amount of assets for which the Portfolio Manager is responsible.

Certain Portfolio Managers may manage products other than mutual funds, such as high net worth separate accounts.  For the management of these accounts, a Portfolio Manager will generally receive a percentage of pre-tax revenue determined on a monthly basis less third party payouts (e.g., a “finder’s fee” or “referral fee” paid to a third party).  To determine the percentage of revenue a Portfolio Manager receives, the aggregate fees collected on the accounts for which the Portfolio Manager are responsible are compared to a predetermined benchmark of fees that is grown 4% per annum.

NB Management’s Portfolio Managers have always had a degree of independence that they would not get at other firms that have, for example, investment committees.  NB Management believes that its Portfolio Managers are retained not only through compensation and opportunities for advancement, but also by a collegial and stable money management environment.  

In addition, there are additional stock and option award programs available.

NB Management believes the measurement versus the peer groups on a three-year rolling average basis creates a meaningful disincentive to try and beat the peer group and benchmark in any given year by taking undue risks in portfolio management.  The incentive is to be a solid performer over the longer-term, not necessarily to be a short-term winner in any given year.

 (a)(4) Ownership of Securities

Set forth below is the dollar range of equity securities beneficially owned by each Portfolio Manager in the Registrant as of October 31, 2007.  

Portfolio Manager	Dollar Range of Equity Securities Owned in the Registrant
Steven R. Brown	A

E = $100,001-$500,000

B = $1-$10,000

(b)

There were no significant changes in the Registrant’s internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in rule 30a-3(d) under the Act) that occurred during the Registrant’s second fiscal quarter of the period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Registrant’s internal control over financial reporting.
