BREMNER] DEAR SHAREHOLDER, The financial markets in which your Fund operates continue to reflect the larger economic crosscurrents. The illiquidity that infected global credit markets over the last year continues to recede but there is concern about the impact of a reduction in official liquidity support programs. The major institutions that are the linchpin of the international financial system have strengthened their capital structures, but many still struggle with losses in their various portfolios. Global trends include increasing trade and concern about the ability of the U.S. government to address its substantial budgetary deficits. While the fixed-income and equity markets have recovered from the lows recorded in the first quarter of 2009, identifying those developments that will define the future is never easy, and rarely is it more difficult than at present. A fundamental component of a successful investment program is a commitment to remain focused on long-term investment goals even during periods of heightened market uncertainty. Another component is to re-evaluate investment disciplines and tactics and to confirm their validity following periods of extreme volatility and market dislocation, such as we have recently experienced. Your Board carried out an intensive review of investment performance with these objectives in mind during April and May of 2009 as part of the annual management contract renewal process. Confirming the appropriateness of a long term investment strategy is as important for our shareholders as it is for our professional investment managers. For that reason, I again encourage you to remain in communication with your financial consultant on this subject. In September 2009, Nuveen completed the refinancing, at par, of all the auction rate preferred shares issued by its taxable closed-end funds. On October 15, 2009, Nuveen announced the first successful offering of an issue of MuniFund Term Preferred Shares. This new form of preferred securities joins the Variable Rate Demand Preferred Shares as vehicles for refinancing existing municipal fund auction rate preferred shares (ARPS). By the beginning of December 2009, six of the leveraged municipal closed-end funds had redeemed all of their outstanding ARPS. Nuveen remains committed to resolving the issues connected with outstanding ARPS. Please consult the Nuveen web site for the most recent information on this issue and all recent developments on your Nuveen Funds at: www.nuveen.com. On behalf of the other members of your Fund's Board, we look forward to continuing to earn your trust in the months and years ahead. Sincerely, /s/ Robert P. Bremner Robert P. Bremner Chairman of the Board January 20, 2010 Nuveen Investments 1 Portfolio Managers' Comments NUVEEN CONNECTICUT PREMIUM INCOME MUNICIPAL FUND (NTC) NUVEEN CONNECTICUT DIVIDEND ADVANTAGE MUNICIPAL FUND (NFC) NUVEEN CONNECTICUT DIVIDEND ADVANTAGE MUNICIPAL FUND 2 (NGK) NUVEEN CONNECTICUT DIVIDEND ADVANTAGE MUNICIPAL FUND 3 (NGO) NUVEEN MASSACHUSETTS PREMIUM INCOME MUNICIPAL FUND (NMT) NUVEEN MASSACHUSETTS DIVIDEND ADVANTAGE MUNICIPAL FUND (NMB) NUVEEN INSURED MASSACHUSETTS TAX-FREE ADVANTAGE MUNICIPAL FUND (NGX) NUVEEN MISSOURI PREMIUM INCOME MUNICIPAL FUND (NOM) Portfolio managers Cathryn Steeves and Scott Romans discuss key investment strategies and the six-month performance of these eight Nuveen Funds. Cathryn, who joined Nuveen in 1996, has managed the Connecticut and Massachusetts funds since 2006. Scott, who has been with Nuveen since 2000, assumed portfolio management responsibility for NOM in 2003. WHAT KEY STRATEGIES WERE USED TO MANAGE THESE FUNDS DURING THE SIX-MONTH REPORTING PERIOD ENDED NOVEMBER 30, 2009? During this period, municipal bond prices generally rose, as strong cash flows into municipal bond funds combined with tighter supply of new tax-exempt issuance to provide favorable supply and demand conditions. One reason for the supply reduction was the introduction of the Build America Bond program. Build America Bonds are a new class of taxable municipal debt created as part of the February 2009 economic stimulus package. These bonds offer municipal issuers a federal subsidy equal to 35% of a security's interest payments, and therefore offer issuers with an attractive alternative to traditional tax-exempt debt. During the six-month period ended November 30, 2009, taxable Build America Bonds issuance totaled $44.9 billion, accounting for almost 21% of new bonds in the municipal market. Since interest payments from these bonds represent taxable income, we do not see them as good a investment opportunity for these Funds.

THE FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS AND OTHER VIEWS EXPRESSED HEREIN ARE THOSE OF THE PORTFOLIO MANAGERS AS OF THE DATE OF THIS REPORT.

THE FUNDS DISCLAIM ANY OBLIGATION TO UPDATE PUBLICLY OR REVISE ANY FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS OR VIEWS EXPRESSED HEREIN. 2 Nuveen Investments Due in part to the decline in tax-exempt supply, investment activity in these Funds was more limited than usual. The already tight supply situation was further compounded by the lack of tax-exempt bonds offering the longer maturities that we specifically sought to purchase for these Funds. During this period, the availability of longer tax-exempt bonds was constrained by the fact that the majority of issuers offering longer maturity bonds found it more cost-effective to issue these bonds as taxable Build America Bonds, rather than as tax-exempt bonds. In addition, new purchases for the insured NGX were hindered by the severe decline in the issuance of insured bonds. Through November 2009, new insured securities accounted for only 9% of national issuance, compared with 19% during the first eleven months of 2008 and historical levels of approximately 50%. During this period, no insured AAA paper was issued in the new supply market, and none was available in the secondary market. Trading activity also was dampened during much of the period by a market environment in which most of the bonds available for investment offered lower yields. In our opinion, it did not make sense to generate trading costs in such an environment. Under these market conditions, we believed that it was important to focus on monitoring and preserving adequate liquidity. We continued to carefully manage the Funds' cash reserves, which we had increased amid the market uncertainty of the previous reporting period. Overall, our objective was to improve the Funds' liquidity profiles and have the capital we needed to reinvest at opportune times. Cash for new purchases was generated by maturing or called bonds. Although the supply of new tax-exempt municipal bonds was very tight, we continued to monitor the market for attractive value opportunities, taking a bottom-up approach to discovering undervalued sectors and individual credits with the potential to perform well over the long term. Both NTC and NGO purchased some shorter-maturity Connecticut state government obligation bonds as well as a higher education credit. In NMT and NMB, we added higher education and health care bonds. Tax-exempt supply was usually more plentiful in the health care sector because hospitals generally do not qualify for the Build America Bond program and so must continue to issue bonds in the tax-exempt municipal market. As of November 30, 2009, all eight of these Funds continued to use inverse floating rate securities.(1) We employ inverse floaters as a form of leverage for a variety of reasons, including duration management, income enhancement and total return enhancement. (1) An inverse floating rate security, also known as an inverse floater, is a financial instrument designed to pay long-term tax-exempt interest at a rate that varies inversely with a short-term tax-exempt interest rate index. For the Nuveen Funds, the index typically used is the Securities Industry and Financial Markets (SIFM) Municipal Swap Index (previously referred to as the Bond Market Association Index or BMA). Inverse floaters, including those inverse floating rate securities in which the Funds invested during this reporting period, are further defined within the Notes to Financial Statements and Glossary of Terms Used in this Report sections of this report. Nuveen Investments 3 HOW DID THE FUNDS PERFORM? Individual results for these Nuveen Funds, as well as relevant index and peer group information, are presented in the accompanying table.

For the six months ended November 30, 2009, the cumulative returns on common share net asset value (NAV) for all seven of the non-insured Nuveen Connecticut, Massachusetts, and Missouri Funds exceeded the return for the Standard & Poor's (S&P) National Municipal Bond Index. NMT outperformed the average return for the Lipper Other States Municipal Debt Funds Average, NOM performed in line with this Lipper average, while NTC, NFC, NGK, NGO and NMB lagged the average. Shareholders should note that the performance of the Lipper Other States category represents the overall average of returns for funds from ten different states with a wide variety of municipal market conditions, making direct comparisons between these Funds and the Lipper Other States category less meaningful. For the same period, NGX outperformed both the Standard & Poor's (S&P) Insured Municipal Bond Index and the Lipper Single-State Insured Municipal Debt Funds Average. * Six-month returns are cumulative; returns for one-year, five-year, and ten-year are annualized. Past performance is not predictive of future results. Current performance may be higher or lower than the data shown. Returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that shareholders may have to pay on Fund distributions or upon the sale of Fund shares. For additional information, see the individual Performance Overview for your Fund in this report. (2) The Standard & Poor's (S&P) National Municipal Bond Index is an unleveraged, market value-weighted index designed to measure the performance of the investment-grade U.S. municipal bond market. This index does not reflect any initial or ongoing expenses and is not available for direct investment. (3) The Lipper Other States Municipal Debt Funds Average is calculated using the returns of all closed-end funds in this category for each period as follows: Six-month, 43 funds; 1-year, 43 funds; 5-year, 43 funds; and 10-year, 20 funds. The returns account for the effects of managements fees and assume reinvestment of dividends, but do not reflect any applicable sales charges. You cannot invest directly in a Lipper Average. (4) The Standard & Poor's (S&P) Insured Municipal Bond Index is a national unleveraged, market value-weighted index designed to measure the performance of the insured U.S. municipal bond market. This index does not reflect any initial or ongoing expenses and is not available for direct investment. (5) The Lipper Single-State Insured Municipal Debt Funds Average is calculated using the returns of all closed-end funds in this category for each period as follows: Six-month, 34 funds; 1-year, 34 funds; 5-year, 34 funds; and 10-year, 18 funds. The performance of the Lipper Single-State Insured Municipal Debt Funds Average represents the overall average of returns for funds from eight different states with a wide variety of municipal market conditions. The returns account for the effects of managements fees and assume reinvestment of dividends, but do not reflect any applicable sales charges. You cannot invest directly in a Lipper Average. 4 Nuveen Investments Key management factors that influenced the Funds' returns during this period included yield curve and duration positioning, credit exposure and sector allocation. In addition, leverage was an important factor affecting the performances of the Funds. The impact of leverage is discussed in more detail on page six. During this period, we saw yields on tax-exempt bonds generally decline and bond prices rise, especially at the longer end of the municipal yield curve. As a result, longer-term bonds generally outperformed credits with shorter maturities. Overall, duration and yield curve positioning was a net positive for NTC, NGO, NMT, NMB and NGX and a net negative for NFC, NGK and NOM during this period. While yield curve positioning and duration played important roles in performance during these six months, credit exposure had an even more significant impact. As noted earlier, the demand for municipal bonds increased among both institutional and individual investors during this period. This increase was driven by a variety of factors, including concerns about potential tax increases, the need to rebalance portfolio allocations and a growing appetite for additional risk. At the same time, the supply of new tax-exempt municipal paper declined. As investors bid up municipal bond prices, bonds rated BBB or below and non-rated bonds generally outperformed those rated AAA. Overall, the Funds benefited from their credit sector allocations. The Connecticut Funds were generally relatively overweighted in BBB and non-rated bonds and underweighted in bonds rated AA, which helped their performances. Among the Massachusetts Funds, NMB had greater exposure to lower-rated bonds than NMT, but NMT received a larger positive contribution from its stronger individual credit selection, especially among insured and non-rated credits. NGX, which can invest up to 20% of its assets in uninsured investment-grade quality securities, held approximately 12% of its portfolio in uninsured bonds as of November 30, 2009, including 2% in BBB and lower credits. While NOM had only a modest overweight in bonds rated BBB, the Fund was significantly overweighted in non-rated securities and underweighted in both AAA and AA bonds, making credit exposure a major contributor to NOM's performance for this period. Holdings that generally contributed to the Funds' performances included industrial development revenue (IDR) and health care bonds, while zero coupon bonds were also among the strongest performers. In addition, transportation, housing and special tax bonds also outperformed the general municipal market during this period. All of these Funds benefited from their overweights in housing and NMT, NMB, NGX, and NOM also received positive contributions from heavier allocations to health care. NMT and NMB also were overweighted in IDRs, which benefited their performances, while the Connecticut Funds were underweighted in this sector. NOM also received a significant positive contribution from its overweight in the "other revenue" category, specifically its holdings of tax allocation, or tax increment financing, bonds. Nuveen Investments 5 Pre-refunded bonds, which are often backed by U.S. Treasury securities and which had been one of the top performing segments of the municipal bond market over the past two years, performed especially poorly during this period. This was primarily due to their shorter effective maturities and higher credit quality. General obligation and other tax-supported bonds also failed to keep pace with the overall municipal market during this period. Other sectors that lagged the municipal market for the six months included water and sewer and leasing, while education, resource recovery, and electric bonds underperformed the market by a slight margin. The Connecticut and Massachusetts Funds generally were underexposed to tax-supported bonds relative to the municipal market as a whole, which lessened the negative impact from this sector. However, these seven Funds were relatively overweighted in higher education credits, which generally performed poorly. An exception to this was the Connecticut Funds' holdings of AAA rated Yale University bonds, which were strong performers during this period. IMPACT OF THE FUNDS' CAPITAL STRUCTURES AND LEVERAGE STRATEGIES ON PERFORMANCE One important factor impacting the returns of these Funds relative to the comparative indexes was the Funds' use of financial leverage. The Funds use leverage because their managers believe that, over time, leveraging provides opportunities for additional income and total returns for common shareholders. However, use of leverage also can expose common shareholders to additional risk-- especially when market conditions are unfavorable. For example, as the prices of securities held by a Fund decline, the negative impact of these valuation changes on common share net asset value and common shareholder total return is magnified by the use of leverage. Conversely, leverage may enhance common share returns during periods when bond prices generally are rising. In general, leverage made a significant positive contribution to those Funds over this reporting period. RECENT DEVELOPMENTS REGARDING BOND INSURANCE COMPANIES AND FUND POLICY CHANGES (NGX) Another factor that had an impact on the performance of NGX was its positions in bonds backed by municipal bond insurers that have experienced downgrades in their credit ratings. At the time this report was prepared, there were no bond insurers rated AAA by more than one of the major rating agencies (Moody's Investor Service, Standard & Poor's (S&P) and Fitch) and at least one rating agency has placed each insurer on "negative credit watch," "credit outlook/watch developing" "credit outlook/watch negative," "credit watch evolving," "rating withdrawn" or "regulatory supervision" which may 6 Nuveen Investments presage one or more rating reductions for any insurer in the future. By the end of this period, most insured bonds were being valued according to their fundamentals as if they were uninsured. On the whole, the holdings of NGX continued to be well diversified and it is important to note that municipal bonds historically have had a very low rate of default. RECENT DEVELOPMENTS REGARDING THE FUNDS' LEVERAGED CAPITAL STRUCTURE As noted in the last several shareholder reports, the auction rate preferred shares issued by many closed-end funds, including these Nuveen Funds, have been hampered by a lack of liquidity since February 2008. Since that time, more auction rate preferred shares have been submitted for sale in their regularly scheduled auctions than there have been offers to buy. In fact, offers to buy have been almost completely non-existent since late February 2008. This means that these auctions have "failed to clear," and that many, or all, of the auction rate preferred shareholders who wanted to sell their shares in these auctions were unable to do so. This lack of liquidity in auction rate preferred shares did not lower the credit quality of these shares, and auction rate preferred shareholders unable to sell their shares received distributions at the "maximum rate" applicable to failed auctions, as calculated in accordance with the pre-established terms of the auction rate preferred shares. In the recent market, with short-term rates at multi-generational lows, those maximum rates also have been low. One continuing implication for common shareholders from the auction failures is that each Fund's cost of leverage likely has been incrementally higher at times than it otherwise might have been had the auctions continued to be successful. As a result, each Fund's common share earnings likely have been incrementally lower at times than they otherwise might have been. As noted in past shareholder reports, the Funds' Board of Trustees authorized a plan to use tender option bonds (TOBs), also known as floating rate securities, to refinance a portion of the Funds' outstanding auction rate preferred shares. The amount of TOBs that a Fund may use varies according to the composition of each Fund's portfolio. Some Funds have a greater ability to use TOBs than others. As of November 30, 2009, some Funds have issued Variable Rate Demand Preferred Shares (VRDP), but these issuances have been limited since it has been difficult to find liquidity facilities on economically viable terms given the constrained credit environment. Some Funds also issued MuniFund Term Preferred Shares (MTP), a fixed-rate form of preferred stock with a mandatory redemption period of five years. However, the Funds cannot provide any assurance on when the remaining outstanding auction rate preferred shares might be redeemed. Nuveen Investments 7 As of November 30, 2009, the amount of auction rate preferred securities redeemed by the following Funds are as shown in the accompanying table. AUCTION RATE % OF ORIGINAL PREFERRED SHARES AUCTION RATE FUND REDEEMED PREFERRED SHARES ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NTC $4,850,000 12.7% NFC $2,250,000 11.5% NGK $2,050,000 11.7% NGO $3,725,000 11.6% NMB $ 750,000 5.0% ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- During November 2009, NTC and NMT filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) a registration statement seeking to register MTP. During January 2010, subsequent to the reporting period, NTC and NMT successfully completed the issuance of $17.3 million and $17.575 million, respectively, of 2.65%, Series 2015 MTP. MTP is a new form of closed-end fund preferred shares designed to refinance, partially or completely, and replace the auction rate preferred shares previously issued by the Funds as leverage. The net proceeds from this offering were used to refinance a portion of NTC's and NMT's outstanding auction rate preferred shares. The newly-issued MTP shares trade on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) under the symbols "NTC Pr C" and "NMT Pr C" for NTC and NMT, respectively. MTP is a fixed-rate form of preferred stock with a mandatory redemption period, in this case, of five years. By issuing MTP, the Funds seek to take advantage of the current historically low interest rate environment to lock in an attractive federally tax-exempt cost of leverage for a period as long as the term of the MTP. The Funds' managers believe that issuing MTP may help the Funds mitigate the risk of a significant increase in their cost of leverage should short-term interest rates rise sharply in the coming years. Subsequent to the reporting period, NFC, NGK, NGO, NMB and NGX filed with the SEC a registration statement seeking to register MTP. These registration statements, declared effective by the SEC, enable the Funds to issue to the public shares of MTP to refinance all or a portion of each Fund's auction rate preferred shares. The issuance of MTP by these Funds is subject to market conditions. There is no assurance that these MTP shares will be issued. As of November 30, 2009, 75 out of the 84 Nuveen closed-end municipal funds that had issued auction rate preferred shares have redeemed, at par, all or a portion of these shares. These redemptions bring the total amount of Nuveen's municipal closed-end funds' auction rate preferred share redemptions to approximately $2.5 billion of the original $11 billion outstanding.

All of the Funds in this report seek to pay stable dividends at rates that reflect each Fund's past results and projected future performance. During certain periods, each Fund may pay dividends at a rate that may be more or less than the amount of net investment income actually earned by the Fund during the period. If a Fund has cumulatively earned more than it has paid in dividends, it holds the excess in reserve as undistributed net investment income (UNII) as part of the Fund's NAV. Conversely, if a Fund has cumulatively paid dividends in excess of its earnings, the excess constitutes negative UNII that is likewise reflected in the Fund's NAV. Each Fund will, over time, pay all of its net investment income as dividends to shareholders. As of November 30, 2009, all eight of the Funds in this report had positive UNII balances, based upon our best estimate, for tax purposes and positive UNII balances for financial statement purposes. COMMON SHARE REPURCHASES AND SHARE PRICE INFORMATION Since the inception of the Funds' repurchase program, the Funds have not repurchased any of their outstanding common shares.

See accompanying notes to financial statements. Nuveen Investments 59 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(Unaudited) 1. GENERAL INFORMATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The state funds covered in this report and their corresponding Common share stock exchange symbols are Nuveen Connecticut Premium Income Municipal Fund (NTC), Nuveen Connecticut Dividend Advantage Municipal Fund (NFC), Nuveen Connecticut Dividend Advantage Municipal Fund 2 (NGK), Nuveen Connecticut Dividend Advantage Municipal Fund 3 (NGO), Nuveen Massachusetts Premium Income Municipal Fund (NMT), Nuveen Massachusetts Dividend Advantage Municipal Fund (NMB), Nuveen Insured Massachusetts Tax-Free Advantage Municipal Fund (NGX) and Nuveen Missouri Premium Income Municipal Fund (NOM) (collectively, the "Funds"). Common shares of Connecticut Premium Income (NTC) and Massachusetts Premium Income (NMT) are traded on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) while Common shares of Connecticut Dividend Advantage (NFC), Connecticut Dividend Advantage 2 (NGK), Connecticut Dividend Advantage 3 (NGO), Massachusetts Dividend Advantage (NMB), Insured Massachusetts Tax-Free Advantage (NGX) and Missouri Premium Income (NOM) are traded on the NYSE Amex. The Funds are registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as closed-end management investment companies. Each Fund seeks to provide current income exempt from both regular federal and designated state income taxes, and in the case of Insured Massachusetts Tax-Free Advantage (NGX) the alternative minimum tax applicable to individuals, by investing primarily in a portfolio of municipal obligations issued by state and local government authorities within a single state or certain U.S. territories. In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) established the FASB Accounting Standards Codification(TM) (the "Codification") as the single source of authoritative accounting principles recognized by the FASB in the preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). The Codification supersedes existing non-grandfathered, non-SEC accounting and reporting standards. The Codification did not change GAAP but rather organized it into a hierarchy where all guidance within the Codification carries an equal level of authority. The Codification became effective for financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. The Codification did not have a material effect on the Funds' financial statements. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Funds in the preparation of their financial statements in accordance with US generally accepted accounting principles. INVESTMENT VALUATION The prices of municipal bonds in each Fund's investment portfolio are provided by a pricing service approved by the Fund's Board of Trustees. Prices of forward swap contracts are also provided by an independent pricing service approved by each Fund's Board of Trustees. Futures contracts are valued using the closing settlement price, or, in the absence of such a price, at the mean of the bid and asked prices. When market price quotes are not readily available (which is usually the case for municipal securities), the pricing service or, in the absence of a pricing service for a particular investment or derivative instrument, the Board of Trustees of the Fund, or its designee, may establish fair value using a wide variety of market data including yields or prices of investments of comparable quality, type of issue, coupon, maturity and rating, market quotes or indications of value from security dealers, evaluations of anticipated cash flows or collateral, general market conditions and other information and analysis, including the obligor's credit characteristics considered relevant. Temporary investments in securities that have variable rate and demand features qualifying them as short-term investments are valued at amortized cost, which approximates value. INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS Investment transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Realized gains and losses from transactions are determined on the specific identification method. Investments purchased on a when-issued/delayed delivery basis may have extended settlement periods. Any investments so purchased are subject to market fluctuation during this period. The Funds have instructed the custodian to segregate assets with a current value at least equal to the amount of the when-issued/delayed delivery purchase commitments. At November 30, 2009, Massachusetts Premium Income (NMT) and Massachusetts Dividend Advantage (NMB) each had outstanding when-issued/delayed delivery purchase commitments of $375,000. There were no such outstanding purchase commitments in any of the other Funds. INVESTMENT INCOME Interest income, which includes the amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts for financial reporting purposes, is recorded on an accrual basis. Investment income also includes paydown gains and losses, if any. 60 Nuveen Investments INCOME TAXES Each Fund is a separate taxpayer for federal income tax purposes. Each Fund intends to distribute substantially all of its net investment income and net capital gains to shareholders and to otherwise comply with the requirements of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required. Furthermore, each Fund intends to satisfy conditions which will enable interest from municipal securities, which is exempt from regular federal and designated state income taxes, and in the case of Insured Massachusetts Tax-Free Advantage (NGX) the alternative minimum tax applicable to individuals, to retain such tax-exempt status when distributed to shareholders of the Funds. Net realized capital gains and ordinary income distributions paid by the Funds are subject to federal taxation. For all open tax years and all major taxing jurisdictions, management of the Funds has concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions that would require recognition in the financial statements. Open tax years are those that are open for examination by taxing authorities (i.e., generally the last four tax year ends and the interim tax period since then). Furthermore, management of the Funds is also not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months. DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS TO COMMON SHAREHOLDERS Dividends from tax-exempt net investment income are declared monthly. Net realized capital gains and/or market discount from investment transactions, if any, are distributed to shareholders at least annually. Furthermore, capital gains are distributed only to the extent they exceed available capital loss carryforwards. Distributions to Common shareholders of tax-exempt net investment income, net realized capital gains and/or market discount, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The amount and timing of distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from US generally accepted accounting principles. PREFERRED SHARES The Funds have issued and outstanding Preferred shares, $25,000 stated value per share, as a means of effecting financial leverage. Each Fund's Preferred shares are issued in one Series. The dividend rate paid by the Funds on each Series is determined every seven days, pursuant to a dutch auction process overseen by the auction agent, and is payable at the end of each rate period. As of November 30, 2009, the number of Preferred shares outstanding for each Fund is as follows:

Beginning in February 2008, more shares for sale were submitted in the regularly scheduled auctions for the Preferred shares issued by the Funds than there were offers to buy. This meant that these auctions "failed to clear," and that many, or all, Preferred shareholders who wanted to sell their shares in these auctions were unable to do so. Preferred shareholders unable to sell their shares received distributions at the "maximum rate" applicable to failed auctions as calculated in accordance with the pre-established terms of the Preferred shares. These developments have generally not affected the portfolio management or investment policies of the Funds. However, one continuing implication of these auction failures for Common shareholders is that the Funds' cost of leverage likely has been incrementally higher at times than it otherwise would have been had the auctions continued to be successful. As a result, the Funds' future Common share earnings may likely have been lower than they otherwise might have been. As of November 30, 2009, the aggregate amount of outstanding Preferred shares redeemed by each Fund is as follows: Nuveen Investments 61 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (continued)

INSURANCE Under normal circumstances, Insured Massachusetts Tax-Free Advantage (NGX) invests at least 80% of its net assets (as defined in Footnote 7 -Management Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates) in municipal securities that are covered by insurance guaranteeing the timely payment of principal and interest. For purposes of this 80% test, insurers must have a claims paying ability rated at least "A" at the time of purchase by at least one independent rating agency. In addition, the Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets in municipal securities that are rated at least "AA" at the time of purchase (based on the higher of the rating of the insurer, if any, or the underlying security) by at least one independent rating agency, or are unrated but judged to be of similar credit quality by Nuveen Asset Management (the "Adviser"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Nuveen Investments, Inc. ("Nuveen"), or are backed by an escrow or trust account containing sufficient U.S. Government or U.S. Government agency securities or U.S. Treasury-issued State and Local Government Series (SLGS) securities to ensure timely payment of principal and interest. Inverse floating rate securities whose underlying bonds are covered by insurance are included for purposes of the 80% test. The Fund may also invest up to 20% of its net assets in municipal securities rated below "AA" but at least "BBB" (based on the higher rating of the insurer, if any, or the underlying bond) or are unrated but judged to be of comparable quality by the Adviser. Each insured municipal security is covered by Original Issue Insurance, Secondary Market Insurance or Portfolio Insurance. Such insurance does not guarantee the market value of the municipal securities or the value of the Fund's Common shares. Original Issue Insurance and Secondary Market Insurance remain in effect as long as the municipal securities covered thereby remain outstanding and the insurer remains in business, regardless of whether the Fund ultimately disposes of such municipal securities. Consequently, the market value of the municipal securities covered by Original Issue Insurance or Secondary Market Insurance may reflect value attributable to the insurance. Portfolio Insurance, in contrast, is effective only while the municipal securities are held by the Fund. Accordingly, neither the prices used in determining the market value of the underlying municipal securities nor the Common share net asset value of the Fund include value, if any, attributable to the Portfolio Insurance. Each policy of the Portfolio Insurance does, however, give the Fund the right to obtain permanent insurance with respect to the municipal security covered by the Portfolio Insurance policy at the time of its sale. INVERSE FLOATING RATE SECURITIES Each Fund is authorized to invest in inverse floating rate securities. An inverse floating rate security is created by depositing a municipal bond, typically with a fixed interest rate, into a special purpose trust created by a broker-dealer. In turn, this trust (a) issues floating rate certificates, in face amounts equal to some fraction of the deposited bond's par amount or market value, that typically pay short-term tax-exempt interest rates to third parties, and (b) issues to a long-term investor (such as one of the Funds) an inverse floating rate certificate (sometimes referred to as an "inverse floater") that represents all remaining or residual interest in the trust. The income received by the inverse floater holder varies inversely with the short-term rate paid to the floating rate certificates' holders, and in most circumstances the inverse floater holder bears substantially all of the underlying bond's downside investment risk and also benefits disproportionately from any potential appreciation of the underlying bond's value. The price of an inverse floating rate security will be more volatile than that of the underlying bond because the interest rate is dependent on not only the fixed coupon rate of the underlying bond but also on the short-term interest paid on the floating rate certificates, and because the inverse floating rate security essentially bears the risk of loss of the greater face value of the underlying bond. A Fund may purchase an inverse floating rate security in a secondary market transaction without first owning the underlying bond (referred to as an "externally-deposited inverse floater"), or instead by first selling a fixed-rate bond to a broker-dealer for deposit into the special purpose trust and receiving in turn the residual interest in the trust (referred to as a "self-deposited inverse floater"). The inverse floater held by a Fund gives the Fund the right (a) to cause the holders of the floating rate certificates to tender their notes at par, and (b) to have the broker transfer the fixed-rate bond held by the trust to the Fund, thereby collapsing the trust. An investment in an externally-deposited inverse floater is identified in the Portfolio of Investments as "(IF) - Inverse floating rate investment." An investment in a self-deposited inverse floater is accounted for as a financing transaction. In such instances, a fixed-rate bond deposited into a special purpose trust is identified in the Portfolio of Investments as "(UB) - Underlying bond of an inverse floating rate trust reflected as a financing transaction," with the Fund accounting for the short-term floating rate certificates issued by the trust as "Floating rate obligations" on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. In addition, the Fund reflects in "Investment Income" the entire earnings of the underlying bond and the related interest paid to the holders of the short-term floating rate certificates is recognized as "Interest expense on floating rate obligations" on the Statement of Operations. 62 Nuveen Investments During the six months ended November 30, 2009, each Fund invested in externally-deposited inverse floaters and/or self-deposited inverse floaters. Each Fund may also enter into shortfall and forbearance agreements (sometimes referred to as a "recourse trust" or "credit recovery swap") (such agreements referred to herein as "Recourse Trusts") with a broker-dealer by which a Fund agrees to reimburse the broker-dealer, in certain circumstances, for the difference between the liquidation value of the fixed-rate bond held by the trust and the liquidation value of the floating rate certificates issued by the trust plus any shortfalls in interest cash flows. Under these agreements, a Fund's potential exposure to losses related to or on inverse floaters may increase beyond the value of a Fund's inverse floater investments as a Fund may potentially be liable to fulfill all amounts owed to holders of the floating rate certificates. At period end, any such shortfall is included as "Unrealized depreciation on Recourse Trusts" on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. At November 30, 2009, the Funds were not invested in externally-deposited Recourse Trusts.

FORWARD SWAP CONTRACTS Each Fund is authorized to enter into forward interest rate swap contracts consistent with their investment objectives and policies to reduce, increase or otherwise alter its risk profile or to alter its portfolio characteristics (i.e. duration, yield curve positioning and credit quality). Each Fund is subject to interest rate risk in the normal course of pursuing its investment objectives. Each Fund's use of forward interest rate swap transactions is intended to help the Fund manage its overall interest rate sensitivity, either shorter or longer, generally to more closely align the Fund's interest rate sensitivity with that of the broader municipal market. Forward interest rate swap transactions involve each Fund's agreement with a counterparty to pay, in the future, a fixed or variable rate payment in exchange for the counterparty paying the Fund a variable or fixed rate payment, the accruals for which would begin at a specified date in the future (the "effective date"). The amount of the payment obligation is based on the notional amount of the swap contract and the termination date of the swap (which is akin to a bond's maturity). The value of the Fund's swap commitment would increase or decrease based primarily on the extent to which long-term interest rates for bonds having a maturity of the swap's termination date increases or decreases. Forward interest rate swap contracts are valued daily. The net amount recorded on these transactions for each counterparty is recognized on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as "Unrealized appreciation or depreciation on forward swaps" with the change during the fiscal period recognized on the Statement of Operations as "Change in net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of forward swaps." The Funds may terminate a swap contract prior to the effective date, at which point a realized gain or loss is recognized. When a forward swap is terminated, it ordinarily does not involve the delivery of securities or other underlying assets or principal, but rather is settled in cash on a net basis. Net realized gains and losses during the fiscal period are recognized on the Statement of Operations as "Net realized gain (loss) from forward swaps." Each Fund intends, but is not obligated, to terminate its forward swaps before the effective date. Accordingly, the risk of loss with respect to the swap Nuveen Investments 63 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (continued) counterparty on such transactions is limited to the credit risk associated with a counterparty failing to honor its commitment to pay any realized gain to the Fund upon termination. The Funds did not invest in forward interest rate swap transactions during the six months ended November 30, 2009. FUTURE CONTRACTS Each Fund is subject to interest rate risk in the normal course of pursuing its investment objectives and is authorized to invest in futures contracts in attempt to manage such risk. Upon entering into a futures contract, a Fund is required to deposit with the broker an amount of cash or liquid securities equal to a specified percentage of the contract amount. This is known as the "initial margin." Cash held by the broker to cover initial margin requirements on open futures contracts, if any, is recognized as "Deposits with brokers for open futures contracts" on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Subsequent payments ("variation margin") are made or received by a Fund each day, depending on the daily fluctuation of the value of the contract. Variation margin is recognized as a receivable or payable for "Variation margin on futures contracts" on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities, when applicable. During the period the futures contract is open, changes in the value of the contract are recorded as an unrealized gain or loss by "marking-to-market" on a daily basis to reflect the changes in market value of the contract and is recognized as "Change in net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of futures contracts" on the Statement of Operations. When the contract is closed or expired, a Fund records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contract on the closing date and value of the contract when originally entered into and is recognized as "Net realized gain (loss) from futures contracts" on the Statement of Operations. Risks of investments in futures contracts include the possible adverse movement of the securities or indices underlying the contracts, the possibility that there may not be a liquid secondary market for the contracts and/or that a change in the value of the contract may not correlate with a change in the value of the underlying securities or indices. The Funds did not invest in futures contracts during the six months ended November 30, 2009. MARKET AND COUNTERPARTY CREDIT RISK In the normal course of business each Fund may invest in financial instruments and enter into financial transactions where risk of potential loss exists due to changes in the market (market risk) or failure of the other party to the transaction to perform (counterparty credit risk). The potential loss could exceed the value of the financial assets recorded on the financial statements. Financial assets, which potentially expose each Fund to counterparty credit risk, consist principally of cash due from counterparties on forward, option and swap transactions. The extent of each Fund's exposure to counterparty credit risk in respect to these financial assets approximates their carrying value as recorded on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Futures contracts expose a Fund to minimal counterparty credit risk as they are exchange traded and the exchange's clearinghouse, which is counterparty to all exchange traded futures, guarantees the futures contracts against default. Each Fund helps manage counterparty credit risk by entering into agreements only with counterparties the Adviser believes have the financial resources to honor their obligations and by having the Adviser monitor the financial stability of the counterparties. Additionally, counterparties may be required to pledge collateral daily (based on the daily valuation of the financial asset) on behalf of each Fund with a value approximately equal to the amount of any unrealized gain above a pre-determined threshold. Reciprocally, when each Fund has an unrealized loss, the Funds have instructed the custodian to pledge assets of the Funds as collateral with a value approximately equal to the amount of the unrealized loss above a pre-determined threshold. Collateral pledges are monitored and subsequently adjusted if and when the valuations fluctuate, either up or down, by at least the predetermined threshold amount. ZERO COUPON SECURITIES Each Fund is authorized to invest in zero coupon securities. A zero coupon security does not pay a regular interest coupon to its holders during the life of the security. Tax-exempt income to the holder of the security comes from accretion of the difference between the original purchase price of the security at issuance and the par value of the security at maturity and is effectively paid at maturity. Such securities are included in the Portfolios of Investments with a 0.000% coupon rate in their description. The market prices of zero coupon securities generally are more volatile than the market prices of securities that pay interest periodically. CUSTODIAN FEE CREDIT Each Fund has an arrangement with the custodian bank whereby certain custodian fees and expenses are reduced by net credits earned on each Fund's cash on deposit with the bank. Such deposit arrangements are an alternative to overnight investments. Credits for cash balances may be offset by charges for any days on which a Fund overdraws its account at the custodian bank. 64 Nuveen Investments INDEMNIFICATIONS Under the Funds' organizational documents, their Officers and Trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Funds. In addition, in the normal course of business, the Funds enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications to other parties. The Funds' maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Funds that have not yet occurred. However, the Funds have not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts and expect the risk of loss to be remote. USE OF ESTIMATES The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets applicable to Common shares from operations during the reporting period. Actual results may differ from those estimates. 2. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS In determining the value of each Fund's investments various inputs are used. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below: Level 1 - Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities. Level 2 - Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.). Level 3 - Significant unobservable inputs (including management's assumptions in determining the fair value of investments). The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. The following is a summary of each Fund's fair value measurements as of November 30, 2009:

Nuveen Investments 67 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (continued) 6. INCOME TAX INFORMATION The following information is presented on an income tax basis. Differences between amounts for financial statement and federal income tax purposes are primarily due to timing differences in recognizing taxable market discount, timing differences in recognizing certain gains and losses on investment transactions and the treatment of investments in inverse floating rate securities reflected as financing transactions, if any. To the extent that differences arise that are permanent in nature, such amounts are reclassified within the capital accounts on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities presented in the annual report, based on their federal tax basis treatment; temporary differences do not require reclassification. Temporary and permanent differences do not impact the net asset values of the Funds. At November 30, 2009, the cost of investments was as follows:

7. MANAGEMENT FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES Each Fund's management fee is separated into two components - a complex-level component, based on the aggregate amount of all fund assets managed by the Adviser, and a specific fund-level component, based only on the amount of assets within each individual Fund. This pricing structure enables Nuveen fund shareholders to benefit from growth in the assets within each individual fund as well as from growth in the amount of complex-wide assets managed by the Adviser. The annual fund-level fee, payable monthly, for each Fund is based upon the average daily net assets of each Fund as follows: CONNECTICUT PREMIUM INCOME (NTC) MASSACHUSETTS PREMIUM INCOME (NMT) MISSOURI PREMIUM INCOME (NOM) AVERAGE DAILY NET ASSETS(1) FUND-LEVEL FEE RATE -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- For the first $125 million .4500% For the next $125 million .4375 For the next $250 million .4250 For the next $500 million .4125 For the next $1 billion .4000 For the next $3 billion .3875 For net assets over $5 billion .3750 ================================================================================ CONNECTICUT DIVIDEND ADVANTAGE (NFC) CONNECTICUT DIVIDEND ADVANTAGE 2 (NGK) CONNECTICUT DIVIDEND ADVANTAGE 3 (NGO) MASSACHUSETTS DIVIDEND ADVANTAGE (NMB) INSURED MASSACHUSETTS TAX-FREE ADVANTAGE (NGX) AVERAGE DAILY NET ASSETS(1) FUND-LEVEL FEE RATE -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- For the first $125 million .4500% For the next $125 million .4375 For the next $250 million .4250 For the next $500 million .4125 For the next $1 billion .4000 For net assets over $2 billion .3750 ================================================================================ The annual complex-level fee, payable monthly, which is additive to the fund-level fee, for all Nuveen sponsored funds in the U.S., is based on the aggregate amount of total fund net assets managed as stated in the following table. As of November 30, 2009, the complex-level fee rate was .1896%. 70 Nuveen Investments The complex-level fee schedule is as follows: COMPLEX-LEVEL NET ASSET BREAKPOINT LEVEL(1) EFFECTIVE RATE AT BREAKPOINT LEVEL -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- $55 billion .2000% $56 billion .1996 $57 billion .1989 $60 billion .1961 $63 billion .1931 $66 billion .1900 $71 billion .1851 $76 billion .1806 $80 billion .1773 $91 billion .1691 $125 billion .1599 $200 billion .1505 $250 billion .1469 $300 billion .1445 ================================================================================ (1) The complex-level fee component of the management fee for the funds is calculated based upon the aggregate daily managed net assets of all Nuveen funds, with such daily managed net assets defined separately for each fund in its management agreement, but excluding assets attributable to investments in other Nuveen funds. For the complex-level and fund-level fee components, daily managed net assets include assets managed by the Adviser that are attributable to each fund's use of financial leverage. For these purposes, financial leverage includes the funds' use of preferred stock and borrowings and investments in the residual interest certificates (also called inverse floating rate securities) in tender option bond (TOB) trusts, including the portion of assets held by the TOB trust that has been effectively financed by the trust's issuance of floating rate securities, subject to an agreement by the Adviser to limit the amount of such assets for determining managed net assets in certain circumstances. The management fee compensates the Adviser for overall investment advisory and administrative services and general office facilities. The Funds pay no compensation directly to those of its Trustees who are affiliated with the Adviser or to its Officers, all of whom receive remuneration for their services to the Funds from the Adviser or its affiliates. The Board of Trustees has adopted a deferred compensation plan for independent Trustees that enables Trustees to elect to defer receipt of all or a portion of the annual compensation they are entitled to receive from certain Nuveen advised funds. Under the plan, deferred amounts are treated as though equal dollar amounts had been invested in shares of select Nuveen advised funds. For the first ten years of Connecticut Dividend Advantage's (NFC) and Massachusetts Dividend Advantage's (NMB) operations, the Adviser has agreed to reimburse the Funds, as a percentage of average daily net assets, for fees and expenses in the amounts and for the time periods set forth below: YEAR ENDING YEAR ENDING JANUARY 31, JANUARY 31, -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2001* .30% 2007 .25% 2002 .30 2008 .20 2003 .30 2009 .15 2004 .30 2010 .10 2005 .30 2011 .05 2006 .30 ================================================================================ * From the commencement of operations.

NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS ACCOUNTING FOR TRANSFERS OF FINANCIAL ASSETS During June 2009, the FASB issued changes to the authoritative guidance under GAAP on accounting for transfers of financial assets. The objective of this guidance is to improve the relevance, representational faithfulness, and comparability of the information that a reporting entity provides in its financial statements about a transfer of financial assets; the effects of a transfer on its financial position, financial performance, and cash flows; and a transferor's continuing involvement, if any, in transferred financial assets. This guidance is effective as of the beginning of each reporting entity's first annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009, for interim periods within that first annual reporting period and for interim and annual reporting periods thereafter. Earlier application is prohibited. The recognition and measurement provisions of this guidance must be applied to transfers occurring on or after the effective date. Additionally, the disclosure provisions of this guidance should be applied to transfers that occurred both before and after the effective date of this guidance. At this time, management is evaluating the implications of this guidance and the impact it will have on the financial statement amounts and disclosures, if any. 72 Nuveen Investments 9. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS DISTRIBUTIONS TO COMMON SHAREHOLDERS The Funds declared Common share dividend distributions from their tax-exempt net investment income which were paid on December 31, 2009, to shareholders of record on December 15, 2009, as follows:

MUNIFUND TERM PREFERRED SHARES As discussed in the Portfolio Managers' Comments section, subsequent to the reporting period, Connecticut Premium Income (NTC) and Massachusetts Premium Income (NMT) successfully completed the issuance of $17.3 million and $17.575 million, respectively, of 2.65%, Series 2015 MuniFund Term Preferred. The newly-issued MuniFund Term Preferred shares trade on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) under the symbols "NTC Pr C" and "NMT Pr C" for Connecticut Premium Income (NTC) and Massachusetts Premium Income (NMT), respectively. Subsequent to the reporting period, Connecticut Dividend Advantage (NFC), Connecticut Dividend Advantage 2 (NGK), Connecticut Dividend Advantage 3 (NGO), Massachusetts Dividend Advantage (NMB) and Insured Massachusetts Tax-Free Advantage (NGX) filed with the SEC a registration statement seeking to register MuniFund Term Preferred shares. These registration statements, declared effective by the SEC, enable the Funds to issue to the public shares of MuniFund Term Preferred to refinance all or a portion of each Fund's auction rate preferred shares. The issuance of MuniFund Term Preferred shares by these Funds is subject to market conditions. There is no assurance that these MuniFund Term Preferred shares will be issued. EVALUATION DATE In May 2009, the FASB issued changes to authoritative guidance under GAAP for subsequent events. This guidance requires an entity to recognize in the financial statements the effects of all subsequent events that provide additional evidence about conditions that existed at the date of the balance sheet. This guidance is intended to establish general standards of accounting and for disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. This guidance requires the disclosure of the date through which an entity has evaluated subsequent events and the basis for that date - that is, whether that date represents the date the financial statements were issued or were available to be issued. This guidance is effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009. The Funds have performed an evaluation of subsequent events through January 25, 2010, which is the date the financial statements were issued.

* Total Return Based on Market Value is the combination of changes in the market price per share and the effect of reinvested dividend income and reinvested capital gains distributions, if any, at the average price paid per share at the time of reinvestment. The last dividend declared in the period, which is typically paid on the first business day of the following month, is assumed to be reinvested at the ending market price. The actual reinvestment for the last dividend declared in the period may take place over several days, and in some instances may not be based on the market price, so the actual reinvestment price may be different from the price used in the calculation. Total returns are not annualized. Total Return Based on Common Share Net Asset Value is the combination of changes in Common share net asset value, reinvested dividend income at net asset value and reinvested capital gains distributions at net asset value, if any. The last dividend declared in the period, which is typically paid on the first business day of the following month, is assumed to be reinvested at the ending net asset value. The actual reinvest price for the last dividend declared in the period may often be based on the Fund's market price (and not its net asset value), and therefore may be different from the price used in the calculation. Total returns are not annualized. ** After expense reimbursement from Adviser, where applicable. Expense ratios do not reflect the reduction of custodian fee credits earned on the Fund's net cash on deposit with the custodian bank, where applicable. *** Annualized. + The amounts shown are based on Common share equivalents. ++ Ratios do not reflect the effect of dividend payments to Preferred shareholders; Net Investment Income ratios reflect income earned and expenses incurred on assets attributable to Preferred shares. (a) The expense ratios in the above table reflect, among other things, the interest expense deemed to have been paid by the Fund on the floating rate certificates issued by the special purpose trusts for the self-deposited inverse floaters held by the Fund, as described in Footnote 1 - Inverse Floating Rate Securities.

* Total Return Based on Market Value is the combination of changes in the market price per share and the effect of reinvested dividend income and reinvested capital gains distributions, if any, at the average price paid per share at the time of reinvestment. The last dividend declared in the period, which is typically paid on the first business day of the following month, is assumed to be reinvested at the ending market price. The actual reinvestment for the last dividend declared in the period may take place over several days, and in some instances may not be based on the market price, so the actual reinvestment price may be different from the price used in the calculation. Total returns are not annualized.

A PHONE CALL IS ALL IT TAKES TO SET UP YOUR REINVESTMENT ACCOUNT. NUVEEN CLOSED-END FUNDS DIVIDEND REINVESTMENT PLAN Your Nuveen Closed-End Fund allows you to conveniently reinvest dividends and/or capital gains distributions in additional Fund shares. By choosing to reinvest, you'll be able to invest money regularly and automatically, and watch your investment grow through the power of tax-free compounding. Just like dividends or distributions in cash, there may be times when income or capital gains taxes may be payable on dividends or distributions that are reinvested. It is important to note that an automatic reinvestment plan does not ensure a profit, nor does it protect you against loss in a declining market. EASY AND CONVENIENT To make recordkeeping easy and convenient, each month you'll receive a statement showing your total dividends and distributions, the date of investment, the shares acquired and the price per share, and the total number of shares you own. HOW SHARES ARE PURCHASED The shares you acquire by reinvesting will either be purchased on the open market or newly issued by the Fund. If the shares are trading at or above net asset value at the time of valuation, the Fund will issue new shares at the greater of the net asset value or 95% of the then-current market price. If the shares are trading at less than net asset value, shares for your account will be purchased on the open market. If the Plan Agent begins purchasing Fund shares on the open market while shares are trading below net asset value, but the Fund's shares subsequently trade at or above their net asset value before the Plan Agent is able to complete its purchases, the Plan Agent may cease open-market purchases and may invest the uninvested portion of the distribution in newly-issued Fund shares at a price equal to the greater of the shares' net asset value or 95% of the shares' market value on the last business day immediately prior to the purchase date. Dividends and distributions received to purchase shares in the open market will normally be invested shortly after the dividend payment date. No interest will be paid on dividends and distributions awaiting reinvestment. Because the market price of the shares may increase before purchases are completed, the average purchase price 82 Nuveen Investments per share may exceed the market price at the time of valuation, resulting in the acquisition of fewer shares than if the dividend or distribution had been paid in shares issued by the Fund. A pro rata portion of any applicable brokerage commissions on open market purchases will be paid by Plan participants. These commissions usually will be lower than those charged on individual transactions. FLEXIBLE You may change your distribution option or withdraw from the Plan at any time, should your needs or situation change. Should you withdraw, you can receive a certificate for all whole shares credited to your reinvestment account and cash payment for fractional shares, or cash payment for all reinvestment account shares, less brokerage commissions and a $2.50 service fee. You can reinvest whether your shares are registered in your name, or in the name of a brokerage firm, bank, or other nominee. Ask your investment advisor if his or her firm will participate on your behalf. Participants whose shares are registered in the name of one firm may not be able to transfer the shares to another firm and continue to participate in the Plan. The Fund reserves the right to amend or terminate the Plan at any time. Although the Fund reserves the right to amend the Plan to include a service charge payable by the participants, there is no direct service charge to participants in the Plan at this time.

Nuveen Investments 83 GLOSSARY OF TERMS USED IN THIS REPORT o AUCTION RATE BOND: An auction rate bond is a security whose interest payments are adjusted periodically through an auction process, which process typically also serves as a means for buying and selling the bond. Auctions that fail to attract enough buyers for all the shares offered for sale are deemed to have "failed," with current holders receiving a formula-based interest rate until the next scheduled auction. o AVERAGE ANNUAL TOTAL RETURN: This is a commonly used method to express an investment's performance over a particular, usually multi-year time period. It expresses the return that would have been necessary each year to equal the investment's actual cumulative performance (including change in NAV or market price and reinvested dividends and capital gains distributions, if any) over the time period being considered. o AVERAGE EFFECTIVE MATURITY: The average of the number of years to maturity of the bonds in a Fund's portfolio, computed by weighting each bond's time to maturity (the date the security comes due) by the market value of the security. This figure does not account for the likelihood of prepayments or the exercise of call provisions unless an escrow account has been established to redeem the bond before maturity. The market value weighting for an investment in an inverse floating rate security is the value of the portfolio's residual interest in the inverse floating rate trust, and does not include the value of the floating rate securities issued by the trust. o INVERSE FLOATERS: Inverse floating rate securities, also known as inverse floaters, are created by depositing a municipal bond, typically with a fixed interest rate, into a special purpose trust created by a broker-dealer. This trust, in turn, (a) issues floating rate certificates typically paying short-term tax-exempt interest rates to third parties in amounts equal to some fraction of the deposited bond's par amount or market value, and (b) issues an inverse floating rate certificate (sometimes referred to as an "inverse floater") to an investor (such as a Fund) interested in gaining investment exposure to a long-term municipal bond. The income received by the holder of the inverse floater varies inversely with the short-term rate paid to the floating rate certificates' holders, and in most circumstances the holder of the inverse floater bears substantially all of the underlying bond's downside investment risk. The holder of the inverse floater typically also benefits disproportionately from any potential appreciation of the underlying bond's value. Hence, an inverse floater essentially represents an investment in the underlying bond on a leveraged basis. 84 Nuveen Investments o LEVERAGE-ADJUSTED DURATION: Duration is a measure of the expected period over which a bond's principal and interest will be paid, and consequently is a measure of the sensitivity of a bond's or bond Fund's value to changes when market interest rates change. Generally, the longer a bond's or Fund's duration, the more the price of the bond or Fund will change as interest rates change. Leverage-adjusted duration takes into account the leveraging process for a Fund and therefore is longer than the duration of the Fund's portfolio of bonds. o MARKET YIELD (ALSO KNOWN AS DIVIDEND YIELD OR CURRENT YIELD): An investment's current annualized dividend divided by its current market price. o NET ASSET VALUE (NAV): A Fund's NAV per common share is calculated by subtracting the liabilities of the Fund (including any Preferred shares issued in order to leverage the Fund) from its total assets and then dividing the remainder by the number of common shares outstanding. Fund NAVs are calculated at the end of each business day. o PRE-REFUNDING: Pre-refunding, also known as advanced refundings or refinancings, is a procedure used by state and local governments to refinance municipal bonds to lower interest expenses. The issuer sells new bonds with a lower yield and uses the proceeds to buy U.S. Treasury securities, the interest from which is used to make payments on the higher-yielding bonds. Because of this collateral, pre-refunding generally raises a bond's credit rating and thus its value. o TAXABLE-EQUIVALENT YIELD: The yield necessary from a fully taxable investment to equal, on an after-tax basis, the yield of a municipal bond investment. o ZERO COUPON BOND: A zero coupon bond does not pay a regular interest coupon to its holders during the life of the bond. Tax-exempt income to the holder of the bond comes from accretion of the difference between the original purchase price of the bond at issuance and the par value of the bond at maturity and is effectively paid at maturity. The market prices of zero coupon bonds generally are more volatile than the market prices of bonds that pay interest periodically.
