On the matters coming before each Fund's Annual Meeting as to which a choice has been specified by the shareholders of that Fund on the proxy, the shares of that Fund will be voted accordingly. If no choice is so specified, the shares of each Fund will be voted FOR the election of the nominees as listed in this Joint Proxy Statement, and FOR ratification of the 1 5 selection of Ernst & Young LLP as independent auditors. Shareholders of any Fund who execute proxies may revoke them at any time before they are voted by filing with that Fund a written notice of revocation, by delivering a duly executed proxy bearing a later date, or by attending the Annual Meeting and voting in person. The Board of each Fund has determined that the use of this Joint Proxy Statement for the Fund's Annual Meeting is in the best interest of the Fund and its shareholders in light of the similar matters being considered and voted on by the shareholders. Shareholders of each Fund will vote separately on each proposal relating to their Fund, and a vote on a proposal by the shareholders of one Fund will not affect the vote on the proposal by the shareholders of another Fund. The following table indicates which shareholders are solicited with respect to each matter:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- MATTER COMMON SHARES MUNIPREFERRED(1) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1a(i). Election of Board Members by all X X shareholders (except California Value) (Robert P. Bremner, Lawrence H. Brown, Anne E. Impellizzeri, Peter R. Sawers and Judith M. Stockdale nominated) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- a(ii). Election of Board Members by N/A X MuniPreferred only (except California Value) (William J. Schneider and Timothy R. Schwertfeger nominated) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- b. Election of Board Members for California X N/A Value by all common shareholders (Robert P. Bremner, William J. Schneider and Judith M. Stockdale nominated) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2. Ratification of the Selection of X X Auditors -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(1) "MuniPreferred" means "Municipal Auction Rate Cumulative Preferred." A quorum of shareholders is required to take action at each Fund's Annual Meeting. A majority of the shares entitled to vote at each Annual Meeting, represented in person or by proxy, will constitute a quorum of shareholders at that Annual Meeting, except that for the election of the two Board Member nominees to be elected by holders of MuniPreferred of each Fund (except California Value), 33 1/3% of the MuniPreferred shares entitled to vote and represented in person or by proxy will constitute a quorum. Votes cast by proxy or in person at each Annual Meeting will be tabulated by the inspectors of election appointed for that Annual Meeting. The inspectors of election will determine whether or not a quorum is present at the Annual Meeting. The inspectors of election will treat abstentions and "broker non-votes" (i.e., shares held by brokers or nominees, typically in "street name," as to which (i) instructions have not been received from the beneficial owners or persons entitled to vote and (ii) the broker or nominee does not have discretionary voting power on a particular matter) as present for purposes of determining a quorum. For purposes of determining the approval of the matters submitted for a vote of the shareholders of each Fund (except the Funds that are Massachusetts business trusts), abstentions and broker non-votes will be treated as shares voted against the election of Board Members and against ratification of the selection of independent auditors. For purposes of determining the approval of the matters submitted for a vote of the shareholders of the Massachusetts business trusts (California Premium, California Dividend, Florida Investment, Florida Quality and Insured Florida), abstentions and broker non-votes will have 2 6 no effect on the election of Board Members and will have the same effect as shares voted against ratification of the selection of independent auditors. The details of each proposal to be voted on by the shareholders of each Fund and the vote required for approval of each proposal are set forth under the description of each proposal below. Those persons who were shareholders of record at the close of business on September 18, 2000 will be entitled to one vote for each share held. As of September 18, 2000 shares of the Funds were issued and outstanding as follows:

Schwertfeger as Class I Board Members of California Value expire in 2001. The term of Board Member Impellizzeri as a Class II Board Member of California Value, expires in 2002. The affirmative vote of a majority of the shares present and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting (except for California Premium, California Dividend, Florida Investment, Florida Quality and Insured Florida) will be required to elect Board Members of that Fund. For California Premium, California Dividend, Florida Investment, Florida Quality and Insured Florida, the affirmative vote of a plurality of the shares present and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting will be required to elect the Board Members of those Funds. It is the intention of the persons named in the enclosed proxy to vote the shares represented thereby for the election of the nominees listed below unless the proxy is marked otherwise. Each of the nominees has agreed to serve as a Board Member of each Fund if elected; however, should any nominee become unable or unwilling to accept nomination for election, the proxies for each Fund will be voted for one or more substitute nominees designated by that Fund's present Board. The table below shows each nominee's birthdate, principal occupations and other business affiliations, the year in which each nominee was first elected or appointed a Board Member of each Fund and the number of Common Shares of the Funds and of all Nuveen Funds (excluding money markets funds) which each nominee beneficially owned as of September 30, 2000, as more fully described in footnote (2) to the following table. All of the nominees were last elected to the Board at the 1999 annual meeting of shareholders except 4 8 for California Value which only elected a Class II Board Member. Currently there is a vacancy on the Board. No candidate has been selected to fill this vacancy. Other than Mr. Schwertfeger, none of the Board Members have ever been a director or an employee of Nuveen Investments or any affiliate.

(*) "Interested person" as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, by reason of being an officer or director of the Funds' investment adviser, Nuveen Advisory Corp. (1) As of September 30, 2000, the Board Members and nominees were board members of 37 Nuveen open-end funds and 54 closed-end funds managed by Nuveen Advisory Corp. ("NAC"). In addition, Mr. Schwertfeger is a board member of nine open-end and five closed-end funds managed by Nuveen Institutional Advisory Corp. ("NIAC") and two funds managed by Nuveen Senior Loan Asset Management Inc. ("NSLAM"). (2) The number of shares shown reflects the aggregate number of common shares beneficially owned in all of the NAC, NIAC and NSLAM funds referred to in note (1) above (excluding money market funds). Includes share equivalents of certain Nuveen funds in which the Board Member is deemed to be invested pursuant to the Funds' Deferred Compensation Plan as more fully described below. Includes for Mr. Schwertfeger shares in which he has shared investment power with his spouse and shares held in Nuveen's 401(k)/profit sharing plan. 5,440 Nuveen fund shares not listed for Mr. Bremner are owned by his spouse. Mr. Bremner disclaims beneficial ownership of these shares. 1,057 shares listed for Mr. Sawers are owned by his spouse; Mr. Sawers has shared investment power. (3) Board Members Bremner, Schneider and Stockdale are currently Class III Board Members of California Value whose current term expires at the Annual Meeting, and have been nominated for a new term to expire in 2003. (4) Board Members Brown, Sawers and Schwertfeger are continuing Class I Board Members of California Value, whose term will expire in 2001. (5) Ms. Impellizzeri is a continuing Class II Board Member of California Value, whose term will expire in 2002. (6) Board Members Schneider and Schwertfeger are Board nominees to be elected by holders of MuniPreferred for all Funds except California Value. 6 10 The Board Members affiliated with Nuveen Investments ("Nuveen") or Nuveen Advisory Corp. (the "Adviser") serve without any compensation from the Funds. Board Members who are not affiliated with Nuveen or the Adviser receive a $15,000 quarterly retainer ($60,000 annually) for serving as a board member of all funds sponsored by Nuveen and managed by the Adviser and a $1,000 fee per day plus expenses for attendance at all meetings held on a day on which a regularly scheduled Board meeting is held, a $1,000 fee per day plus expenses for attendance in person or a $500 fee per day plus expenses for attendance by telephone at a meeting held on a day on which no regular Board meeting is held, and a $500 fee per day plus expenses for attendance in person or by telephone at a meeting of the executive committee or the dividend committee. The annual retainer, fees and expenses are allocated among the funds managed by the Adviser on the basis of relative net asset sizes. Effective January 1, 1999, the Board of Directors/Trustees of certain Nuveen Funds (the "Participating Funds") established a Deferred Compensation Plan for Independent Directors and Trustees ("Deferred Compensation Plan"). Under the Deferred Compensation Plan, Independent Board Members of the Participating Funds may defer receipt of all, or a portion, of the compensation they earn for their services to the Participating Funds, in lieu of receiving current payments of such compensation. Any deferred amount is treated as though an equivalent dollar amount had been invested in shares of one or more eligible Nuveen funds. Each Independent Board Member, other than Mr. Brown, has elected to defer at least a portion of their fees. Each of the Funds except California Value, California Opportunity, California Premium and Insured California are Participating Funds under the Deferred Compensation Plan. The table below shows, for each Board Member who is not affiliated with Nuveen or the Adviser, the aggregate compensation (i) paid by each Fund to each Board Member for its last fiscal year and (ii) paid during the calendar year 1999.

Schwertfeger serve as members of the executive committee of the Board of each Fund. The executive committee, which meets between regular meetings of the Board, is authorized to exercise all of the powers of the Board; provided that the scope of the powers of the executive committee, unless otherwise specifically authorized by the full Board, are limited to: (i) emergency matters where assembly of the full Board is impracticable (in which case management will take all reasonable steps to quickly notify each individual Board Member of the actions taken by the executive committee) or (ii) matters of administrative or ministerial nature. One special executive committee meeting was held for the Florida Investment and Florida Quality Funds during their last fiscal year. Each other Fund held no executive committee meetings during its last fiscal year. Lawrence H. Brown and Timothy R. Schwertfeger are the current members of the dividend committee for each Fund. The dividend committee is authorized to declare distributions on the Funds' shares including, but not limited to, regular and special dividends, capital gains and ordinary income distributions. The dividend committee of each of the California Funds held thirteen meetings during its last fiscal year; twelve dividend committee meetings were held for each of the Florida Funds. Each Fund's Board has an audit committee composed of Robert P. Bremner, Lawrence H. Brown, Anne E. Impellizzeri, Peter R. Sawers, William J. Schneider and Judith M. Stockdale, Board Members who are not "interested persons" of the Fund. The audit committee reviews the work and any recommendations of the Fund's independent auditors. Based on such review, it is authorized to make recommendations to the Board. The audit committee of each Fund held two meetings during its last fiscal year. Nomination of those Board Members who are not "interested persons" of each Fund is committed to a governance committee composed of the Board Members who are not "interested persons" of that Fund. It identifies and recommends individuals to be nominated for election as non-interested Board Members. The governance committee of each Fund held two meetings during its last fiscal year. No policy or procedure has been established as to the recommendation of Board Member nominees by shareholders. 8 12 The Board of each Fund held four meetings during its last fiscal year. During the last fiscal year, each Board Member attended 75% or more of each Fund's Board meetings and the committee meetings (if a member thereof). The following table sets forth information as of September 30, 2000 with respect to each executive officer of the Funds, other than Mr. Schwertfeger who is a Board Member and included in the table relating to nominees for the Board.

On September 30, 2000 Board Members and executive officers of the Funds as a group beneficially owned 487,137 common shares of all funds managed by the Adviser, Nuveen Institutional Advisory Corp. or Nuveen Senior Loan Asset Management Inc. (includes Deferred Units and shares held by the executive officers in Nuveen's 401(k)/profit sharing plan, but excludes shares of money market funds). Board Members and executive officers of the Funds as a group did not beneficially own any Common Shares of any Fund or any shares of MuniPreferred of any Fund. As of September 18, 2000, no shareholder owned more than 5% of any class of shares of any Fund. 2. SELECTION OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS The members of each Fund's Board who are not "interested persons" of that Fund have unanimously selected Ernst & Young LLP, as independent auditors, to audit the books and records for each Fund for its current fiscal year. Ernst & Young LLP has served each Fund in this capacity since that Fund was organized and has no direct or indirect financial interest in that Fund except as independent auditors. The selection of Ernst & Young LLP as independent auditors of each Fund is being submitted to the shareholders for ratification, which requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares of each Fund present and entitled to vote on the matter. A representative of Ernst & Young LLP is expected to be present at the Annual Meetings and will be available to respond to any appropriate questions raised at the Annual Meetings and to make a statement if he or she wishes. EACH FUND'S BOARD UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT SHAREHOLDERS VOTE FOR THE RATIFICATION OF THE SELECTION OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS. SECTION 16(a) BENEFICIAL INTEREST REPORTING COMPLIANCE Section 30(h) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act") and Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "1934 Act"), as amended, require each Fund's Board Members and officers, investment adviser, affiliated persons of the investment adviser and persons who own more than ten percent of a registered class of the Funds' equity securities to file forms reporting their affiliation with that Fund and reports of ownership and changes in ownership of that Fund's shares with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") and the New York Stock Exchange. These persons and entities are required by SEC regulation to furnish the Funds with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file. Based on a review of these forms furnished to each Fund, each Fund believes that during 11 15 its last fiscal year all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to that Fund's Board Members and officers, investment adviser and affiliated persons of the investment adviser were complied with. INFORMATION ABOUT THE FUNDS' INVESTMENT ADVISER The Adviser, located at 333 West Wacker Drive, Chicago, Illinois, serves as investment adviser and manager for each Fund. The Adviser is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Nuveen Investments ("Nuveen"), 333 West Wacker Drive, Chicago, Illinois 60606. Nuveen is a subsidiary of The John Nuveen Company which in turn is approximately 77% owned by The St. Paul Companies, Inc. ("St. Paul"). St. Paul is located at 385 Washington Street, St. Paul, Minnesota 55102, and is principally engaged in providing property-liability insurance through subsidiaries. SHAREHOLDER PROPOSALS To be considered for presentation at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders of any of the Funds to be held in 2001, a shareholder proposal submitted pursuant to Rule 14a-8 of the 1934 Act must be received at the offices of that Fund, 333 West Wacker Drive, Chicago, Illinois 60606, not later than June 15, 2001. A shareholder wishing to provide notice in the manner prescribed by Rule 14a-4(c)(1) of a proposal submitted outside of the process of Rule 14a-8 must submit such written notice to the Fund not later than August 29, 2001. Timely submission of a proposal does not mean that such proposal will be included. EXPENSES OF PROXY SOLICITATION The cost of preparing, printing and mailing the enclosed proxy, accompanying notice and proxy statement, and all other costs in connection with the solicitation of proxies, will be paid by the Funds pro rata based on the number of shareholder accounts. Additional solicitation may be made by letter, telephone or telegraph by officers of each Fund, by officers or employees of Nuveen Investments or Nuveen Advisory Corp., or by dealers and their representatives. FISCAL YEAR The last fiscal year for each Florida Fund was June 30, 2000 and for each California Fund was August 31, 2000. ANNUAL REPORT DELIVERY Annual reports for the Funds' fiscal year ended in 2000 were sent (Florida Funds) or will be sent (California Funds) to shareholders of record of each Fund following each Fund's fiscal year end. Each Fund will furnish, without charge, a copy of its annual report upon request. Such written or oral requests should be directed to such Fund at 333 West Wacker Drive, Chicago, Illinois 60606 or by calling 1-800-257-8787. 12 16 GENERAL Management does not intend to present and does not have reason to believe that any other items of business will be presented at any Fund's Annual Meeting. However, if other matters are properly presented to the Annual Meeting for a vote, the proxies will be voted by the persons acting under the proxies upon such matters in accordance with their judgment of the best interests of the Fund. A list of shareholders entitled to be present and to vote at each Fund's Annual Meeting will be available at the offices of the Funds, 333 West Wacker Drive, Chicago, Illinois, for inspection by any shareholder during regular business hours for ten days prior to the date of that Annual Meeting. Failure of a quorum to be present at any Annual Meeting will necessitate adjournment and will subject that Fund to additional expense. The persons named in the enclosed proxy may also move for an adjournment of any Annual Meeting to permit further solicitation of proxies with respect to any of the proposals if they determine that adjournment and further solicitation is reasonable and in the best interests of the shareholders. Under each Fund's By-Laws, an adjournment of a meeting requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting.
