ADVISORY CONTRACTS 3 invstmgmtamnd_103119.htm MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT AMENDMENT - 10.31.19 HTML

MEMORIALIZATION OF CHANGES

TO THE DEFINITION OF “COMPLEX-LEVEL ASSETS” IN

CERTAIN NUVEEN OPEN-END AND CLOSED-END FUND

INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT AGREEMENTS

MEMORIALIZATION made as of this 1st day of August, 2019, by and between the Nuveen Open-End and Closed-End Funds (excluding Nuveen Exchange-Traded Funds) listed on Attachment A (the “Funds”) and Nuveen Fund Advisors, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Adviser”).

W I T N E S S E T H

WHEREAS, each Investment Management Agreement between each of the Funds and the Adviser currently in effect includes, as a component of the management fee to be paid by each Fund to the Adviser, a Complex-Wide Fee (capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall be as defined in each Fund’s respective Investment Management Agreement);

WHEREAS, each such Investment Management Agreement provides that the Complex-Level Fee shall be calculated by reference to the total assets of the Eligible Funds;

WHEREAS, each such Investment Management Agreement provides that “Eligible Funds,” for purposes of such Agreement, shall mean all Nuveen-branded closed-end and open-end registered investment companies organized in the United States (it being understood that Nuveen Exchange-Traded Funds are not considered Eligible Funds); and

WHEREAS, in connection with the reorganization of certain Nuveen Open-End Funds (“Former Eligible Funds”) into certain TIAA-CREF Open-End Funds in 2019, Nuveen management and the Board of Directors/Trustees of each of the Funds have agreed to include certain assets of the Former Eligible Funds as Complex-Level Assets for purposes of calculating the Complex-Level Fee, which will have the effect of reducing the fees paid to the Adviser by the Funds.

Now, therefore, the parties hereby memorialize that understanding by amending the following paragraph included in each Fund’s Investment Management Agreement as follows (with deleted language stricken through and new language underlined):

The Complex-Level Fee for the Fund shall be computed by applying the Complex-Level Fee Rate, expressed as a daily equivalent, to the average daily managed assets of the Fund. The Complex-Level Fee Rate shall be determined based upon the total daily net assets of all Eligible Funds, as defined below (with such daily net assets to include — in the case of Eligible Funds whose advisory fees are calculated by reference to net assets that include net assets attributable to preferred stock issued by or borrowings by the Eligible Fund — such leveraging net assets), pursuant to the annual fee schedule shown below in this section, with the following exclusions adjustments (as adjusted, “Complex-Level Assets”):

(i) in the case of Eligible Funds that invest in other Eligible Funds (individually a “Fund of Funds” and collectively “Funds of Funds”), excluding that portion of the net assets of such Funds of Funds attributable to investments in such other Eligible Funds; and


(ii) excluding that portion of the net assets of each Eligible Fund comprising the daily “Fund Asset Limit Amount” (as defined below).; and

(iii) in instances where Eligible Funds have been reorganized into non-Eligible Funds advised by an affiliate of the Adviser during the 2019 calendar year (each such reorganization a “2019 Reorganization” and each such Eligible Fund a “Former Eligible Fund”):

(x) for each Former Eligible Fund that was not a Fund of Funds, including the amount by which, as of a date 30 days prior to the closing date of the applicable 2019 Reorganization, the net assets of the Former Eligible Fund exceeded the Former Eligible Fund’s “Initial Fund Asset Limit Amount” (as defined below); and

(y) for each Former Eligible Fund that was a Fund of Funds, with respect to each Eligible Fund in which the Former Eligible Fund was invested immediately prior to the transition of the Former Eligible Fund’s portfolio in connection with its 2019 Reorganization (the “Transition Time”), including the net assets of the Former Eligible Fund invested in such Eligible Fund as of the Transition Time, but only to the extent that the Eligible Fund’s net assets exceeded the Eligible Fund’s “Initial Fund Asset Limit Amount” (as defined below) as of the Transition Time.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, each Fund and the Adviser have caused this Agreement to be executed as of the day and year above written.
