Sidebar text: WE THINK THAT MUNICIPAL BOND INVESTMENTS LIKE YOUR NUVEEN FUND CAN
BE IMPORTANT BUILDING BLOCKS IN A WELL-BALANCED PORTFOLIO.

Dear
   SHAREHOLDER

By coincidence, this letter is dated April 15 - the one day every year when the
value of tax-free income may be the most obvious.

So on this date in particular, I am very pleased to report that for the period
ended February 29, 2004, your Nuveen California Fund continued to provide you
with attractive monthly tax-free income.

While tax-free income always is welcome, many of you may have begun to wonder
whether interest rates will rise, and whether that possibility should cause you
to adjust your holdings of tax-free municipal bond investments. We believe that
these are questions that should be thought through with a clear focus on your
long-term financial goals and not on day-to-day market movements. By maintaining
a carefully balanced portfolio with the help of a trusted investment
professional, you may be able to reduce your overall investment risk over the
long-term, and give yourself a better chance to meet your ultimate financial
goals. We think that municipal bond investments like your Nuveen Fund can be
important building blocks in a well-balanced portfolio - not only on April 15,
but on every other day of the year as well.

As you read through this report, please don't skip the inside front cover. I
urge you to consider receiving future Fund reports and other Fund information by
e-mail and the Internet. Not only will you be able to receive the information
faster, but this also may help lower your Fund's expenses. Sign up is quick and
easy.

Since 1898, Nuveen Investments has offered financial products and solutions that
incorporate careful research, diversification and the application of
conservative risk-management principles. We are grateful that you have chosen us
as a partner as you pursue your financial goals. We look forward to continuing
to earn your trust in the months and years ahead.

Sincerely,

/s/ Timothy R. Schwertfeger

(NPC, NCL, NCU, NAC, NVX, NZH, NKL, NKX)

Portfolio Managers'
               COMMENTS



Portfolio managers Tom O'Shaughnessy and Scott Romans review national and state
economic and market conditions, key investment strategies, and the six-month
performance of the Funds. With 21 years of experience at Nuveen, Tom has managed
NPC and NCL since January 2003. Scott, who joined Nuveen in 2000, also assumed
portfolio management responsibility for the remaining six Funds in January 2003.

WHAT FACTORS AFFECTED THE U.S. ECONOMY AND MUNICIPAL MARKET DURING THE REPORTING
PERIOD ENDED FEBRUARY 29, 2004?

During this reporting period, the greatest influences on the national economy
and the municipal market continued to be historically low interest rates, little
movement in the reported rate of inflation, and growing evidence of economic
improvement. Since its last credit easing in June 2003, the Federal Reserve has
maintained the fed funds rate at 1.0%, the lowest level since 1958. This
accommodative monetary policy helped to spur economic growth of 4.1%
(annualized) in the fourth quarter of 2003, bringing the growth in the gross
domestic product (GDP) for all of 2003 to a solid 3.1%. Over the six-month
reporting period, inflation remained under control, with the increase in the
core CPI averaging 1.2% year-over-year.

In this generally favorable environment, many municipal bonds performed well
during the six months ended February 29, 2004. Although municipal supply
nationally in 2003 reached $382.7 billion, breaking the record set in 2002,
issuance slowed somewhat during the last half of 2003. Tighter supply continued
into the first two months of 2004, with national issuance totaling $42.5
billion, a decrease of 26% from January-February 2003. For the entire six-month
period ended February 2004, we saw $26 billion less in new bonds coming to
market than in the preceding six months.

HOW WERE ECONOMIC AND MARKET CONDITIONS IN CALIFORNIA?

Despite a period of enormous political and financial uncertainty, California
generally managed to track the national economic recovery over the six months
ended February 29, 2004. While the state economy remained hindered by the slow
recovery of the technology sector, a strong housing market helped to fuel growth
in construction, financial services (driven by demand for mortgage financing),
and consumer spending. Increased defense spending also had positive implications
for the state's aerospace industry. In addition, California's $100 billion
export industry, covering agricultural, computer, and electronic products, was
aided by the decline in the U.S. dollar. In general, the Bay Area and Silicon
Valley remained the weakest areas in the aftermath of the technology downturn,
while other parts of the state, especially Riverside County in southern
California, showed stronger economic growth. Although the state continued to
lose jobs in the government, manufacturing, and business services sectors, the
educational and health services, the leisure and hospitality and construction
industries all experienced recent gains.

Following the October 2003 governor's recall election, attention turned to
developing potential solutions to the state's fiscal crisis. Legal challenges to
two bond proposals ($1.9 billion in pension obligation bonds and $10.7 billion
in fiscal recovery bonds) caused both Moody's and Fitch to downgrade
California's general obligation debt to Baa1/BBB from A3/A in December 2003.
Standard & Poor's, which had downgraded the state in July 2003, kept its rating
at BBB, and all three agencies maintained negative outlooks for the state. In
January 2004, the governor proposed a $79 billion


                                       2



budget for fiscal 2005. The budget proposal avoids tax increases and includes
expenditure cuts and spending deferrals, among other measures. To take effect,
this budget must be passed by a two-thirds legislative majority before June 30,
2004. We believe a punctual budget agreement would send a strong positive signal
to investors, facilitate the issuance of future bonds at more cost-effective
yields for the state, and strengthen California's credit outlook.

On March 2, 2004 (following the close of this reporting period), California
voters approved the issuance of $15 billion in economic recovery bonds (ERBs) as
well as a resolution calling for future limits on spending and borrowing.
Moody's and S&P subsequently revised their outlooks for California to stable and
positive, respectively.

California continued to rank as the nation's largest issuer of municipal bonds,
with $57.9 billion in new bonds in 2003, up 18% over 2002. In the first two
months of 2004, however, supply fell 57% from January-February 2003 levels, as
state issuance totaled $5.4 billion. This decline was due primarily to a delay
in some issuance as issuing authorities waited for the outcome of the March 2004
referenda.

IN THIS ENVIRONMENT, WHAT KEY STRATEGIES WERE USED TO MANAGE THESE FUNDS DURING
THE SIX MONTHS ENDED FEBRUARY 29, 2004?

Over this reporting period, our major focus continued to be on careful
management of the Funds' durations1 as a way to mitigate some of the inherent
interest rate risk within each Fund's portfolio and better position each Fund
for potentially more consistent returns over time. Interest rate risk is the
risk that the value of a Fund's portfolio will decline if market interest rates
rise (since bond prices move in the opposite direction of interest rates). The
longer the duration of a Fund's portfolio, the greater its interest rate risk.
Overall, we were able to shorten the durations of all of these Funds during the
course of the six-month period.

As noted earlier, the supply of new issue municipal bonds in California began to
soften during the course of this six-month reporting period. This presented some
challenges in finding securities that we believed had the potential to add value
and carried the types of structures and features we prefer. The supply of
attractive insured bonds was particularly tight at times, which meant there were
occasional periods in managing NPC, NCL, NKL and NKX when it took a little
longer than normal to make a desired purchase.

For NCU, NAC, NVX and NZH, one of our strategies over the longer term has
centered on purchasing and selling California general obligation bonds (GOs) to
take advantage of general market moves. In February 2004, we bought part of the
$2 billion issuance of state GOs for each of these four Funds, with the goal of
modestly increasing their GO holdings. As the state continues to work its way
out of its current credit problems, we anticipate that the yield spreads on
these bonds relative to national AAA credits with similar maturities may narrow.
If this occurs, it may provide us with the opportunity to sell some of these GO
holdings at attractive prices in the future.

In NCU, NAC, NVX and NZH, we also continued to purchase both investment-grade
and smaller, unrated land-secured offerings. In our opinion, the market prices
did not reflect our assessment of the actual risks of holding these securities,
resulting in some opportunities to buy bonds we considered to be undervalued.
Two such additions to NAC, NVX and NZH during this six-month period were issues
by the Capistrano Unified School District on behalf of the Talega development,
and by the Patterson Community Facilities District. On the other side, in
September 2003 our research indicated a weakening credit picture for bonds
issued for the Sacramento-Yolo Port District, and we were able to close out
NVX's $3.84 million position in that credit shortly before the issue was
downgraded.

In NPC and NCL, we focused on taking advantage of some of the beneficial tax
positions within both Funds. NCL, in particular, had a large amount of tax loss
carryforward, which over time can


1 Duration is a measure of a Fund's NAV volatility in reaction to interest rate
  movements. Fund duration, also known as leverage-adjusted duration, takes into
  account the leveraging process for a Fund and therefore is generally longer
  than the duration of the actual portfolio of individual bonds that make up the
  Fund. References to duration in this commentary are intended to indicate Fund
  duration unless otherwise noted.

For additional information, see the individual Performance Overview for your
Fund in this report.

For the six months ended February 29, 2004, the total returns of all eight of
the Funds in this report outperformed their respective Lehman Brothers
California Municipal Bond benchmarks. The use of leverage was the primary factor
that influenced the Funds'six-month returns relative to these unmanaged,
unleveraged indexes. While leveraging can add volatility to net asset value and
share price, this strategy can also provide opportunities for additional income
and total return for common shareholders during periods of low or falling
interest rates, which was the case during this relatively short reporting
period.

The Funds' total return performances during this period, when compared with each
other, also were influenced by their durations. Generally, the longer the
duration of a Fund, the more its value will be affected by changes in prevailing
interest rates. Over this six-month reporting period, interest rates generally
declined which caused bond prices to rise and helped enhance the Funds'
cumulative returns. Among the Funds shown in this report, the best performers
over the reporting period were the ones with the longest durations as of
February 29, 2004.

In addition to leverage and duration, NCU, NAC, NVX, NZH, NKL and NKX all held
bonds backed by revenues from the 1998 master tobacco settlement agreement.
Recently, in the wake of some favorable legal developments, the market took a
more optimistic view of these securities. As a result, over the six-month
reporting period, tobacco bonds generally appreciated and made strong
contributions to these Fund's returns.

Looking at other factors that affected each Fund's performance over the
reporting period, NCU was helped by its water and sewer bond holdings. NAC
benefited from its allocation to non-rated, land-secured offerings, but saw some
of its multifamily housing bonds trail the general market. NVX and NZH had good
performance from their toll road holdings, although NVX's allocation to
multifamily housing bonds constrained its performance since this sector did not
do as well as many others over this reporting period.

Among the insured Funds, NPC and NCL benefited from the generally strong
performance of insured California bonds over a period of budget and political
uncertainty and generally falling interest rates. NKL and NKX took advantage of
their ability to invest up to 20% of their assets in uninsured, investment-grade
quality bonds to enhance their returns over the reporting period. In particular,
NKL was helped by the performance of some of its multifamily housing bonds,
while NKX benefited

WHAT ABOUT THE FUNDS' DIVIDENDS AND SHARE PRICES?

With short-term interest rates remaining at historically low levels, the
dividend-paying capabilities of these Funds benefited from their leveraged
structure over the six months ended February 2004. The extent of this benefit is
tied in part to the short-term rates the Funds pay their MuniPreferred(R)
shareholders. During periods of low short-term rates, the Funds generally pay
relatively low dividends to their MuniPreferred shareholders, which can leave
more earnings to support common share dividends. During this six-month period,
continued low short-term rates enabled us to increase the dividends of NPC, NAC
and NVX. Leverage also helped to support the dividends of NCL and NCU, both of
which had offered shareholders 45 consecutive months of steady or increasing
dividends as of February 29, 2004. NZH, NKL and NKX, which were introduced in
late 2001 and 2002, each have continued to provide stable, attractive dividends
since their inceptions.

All of these Funds 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 net asset value. 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 February 29, 2004, all of
the Funds in this report except NKX had positive UNII.

As of February 29, 2004, all eight Funds were trading at share price discounts
to their net asset values (see charts on individual Performance Overview pages).

HOW WERE THE FUNDS POSITIONED IN TERMS OF CREDIT QUALITY AND BOND CALLS AS OF
FEBRUARY 29, 2004?

We believed that, given the current geopolitical and economic climate,
maintaining strong credit quality was a vital requirement. NPC and NCL continued
to be 100% invested in insured and/or U.S. guaranteed securities. NKL and NKX,
which are allowed to invest up to 20% of their assets in uninsured,
investment-grade quality securities, held 80% and 82% of their portfolios,
respectively, in insured bonds as of February 29, 2004. The other Funds also
offered excellent credit quality, with allocations of bonds rated AAA/U.S.
guaranteed and AA ranging from 63% in NAC to 67% in NCU and NZH, and 71% in NVX.
At the same time, NCU, NVX and NZH had modest increases in their holdings rated
BBB or lower over the course of the reporting period, due in part to the
downgrade of California general obligation bonds by Moody's in December 2003.

As of February 29, 2004, potential call exposure during 2004-2005 ranged from
zero in NKL and NKX to 1% in NVX, 2% in NAC and NZH, and 8% in NPC and NCL. NCU,
which marked its ten-year anniversary in mid-2003, faces potential calls on 19%
of its portfolio over this period as the Fund continues to work its way through
a period typically associated with increased call exposure. The actual number of
bond calls in all of these Funds will depend largely on market interest rates.

In general, we believe that these Funds can continue to serve as attractive
sources of tax-free income, while simultaneously offering the potential for
portfolio diversification. In our opinion, the Funds represent a quality
component of a well-balanced core investment portfolio that can continue to
benefit shareholders over time.

1. GENERAL INFORMATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The California Funds (the "Funds") covered in this report and their
corresponding Common share stock exchange symbols are Nuveen Insured California
Premium Income Municipal Fund, Inc. (NPC), Nuveen Insured California Premium
Income Municipal Fund 2, Inc. (NCL), Nuveen California Premium Income Municipal
Fund (NCU), Nuveen California Dividend Advantage Municipal Fund (NAC), Nuveen
California Dividend Advantage Municipal Fund 2 (NVX), Nuveen California Dividend
Advantage Municipal Fund 3 (NZH), Nuveen Insured California Dividend Advantage
Municipal Fund (NKL) and Nuveen Insured California Tax-Free Advantage Municipal
Fund (NKX). Common shares of Insured California Premium Income (NPC), Insured
California Premium Income 2 (NCL) and California Dividend Advantage (NAC) are
traded on the New York Stock Exchange while Common shares of California Premium
Income (NCU), California Dividend Advantage 2 (NVX), California Dividend
Advantage 3 (NZH), Insured California Dividend Advantage (NKL) and Insured
California Tax-Free Advantage (NKX) are traded on the American Stock Exchange.
The Funds are registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended,
as closed-end management investment companies.

Prior to the commencement of operations of Insured California Tax-Free Advantage
(NKX), the Fund had no operations other than those related to organizational
matters, the initial capital contribution of $100,275 by Nuveen Advisory Corp.
(the "Adviser"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Nuveen Investments, Inc., and the
recording of the organization expenses ($11,500) and their reimbursement by
Nuveen Investments, LLC, also a wholly owned subsidiary of Nuveen Investments,
Inc.

Each Fund seeks to provide current income exempt from both regular federal and
California state income taxes, and in the case of Insured California Tax-Free
Advantage (NKX) the alternative minimum tax applicable to individuals, by
investing primarily in a diversified portfolio of municipal obligations issued
by state and local government authorities within the state of California.

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the
Funds in the preparation of their financial statements in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

Securities 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 Directors/Trustees. When
price quotes are not readily available (which is usually the case for municipal
securities), the pricing service establishes fair market value based on yields
or prices of municipal bonds of comparable quality, type of issue, coupon,
maturity and rating, indications of value from securities dealers, evaluations
of anticipated cash flows or collateral and general market conditions. If it is
determined that market prices for a security are unavailable or inappropriate,
the Board of Directors/Trustees of the Funds, or its designee, may establish a
fair value for the security. Temporary investments in securities that have
variable rate and demand features qualifying them as short-term securities are
valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value.

Securities Transactions

Securities transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Realized gains and
losses from such transactions are determined on the specific identification
method. Securities purchased or sold on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis
may have extended settlement periods. The securities 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 and delayed delivery purchase commitments. At February 29, 2004,
Insured California Premium Income 2 (NCL), California Dividend Advantage (NAC),
California Dividend Advantage 2 (NVX) and California Dividend Advantage 3 (NZH)
had outstanding when-issued purchase commitments of $5,329,487, $1,326,011,
$834,896, and $1,350,566, respectively. 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.


                                       57



                        Notes to
                            FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (continued)



Income Taxes

Each Fund is a separate taxpayer for federal income tax purposes. Each Fund
intends to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable
to regulated investment companies and to distribute all of its net investment
income to its shareholders. 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
California state income taxes, and in the case of Insured California Tax-Free
Advantage (NKX) the alternative minimum tax applicable to individuals, to retain
such tax-exempt status when distributed to shareholders of the Funds.

Dividends and Distributions to Common Shareholders

Dividends from tax-exempt net investment income are declared monthly. Net
realized capital gains and/or market discount from investment transactions, if
any, are distributed to shareholders not less frequently than annually.
Furthermore, capital gains are distributed only to the extent they exceed
available capital loss carryforwards.

Distributions to Common shareholders of tax-exempt net investment income, net
realized capital gains and/or market discount, if any, are recorded on the
ex-dividend date. The amount and timing of distributions are determined in
accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States.

Preferred Shares

The Funds have issued and outstanding $25,000 stated value Preferred shares.
Each Fund's Preferred shares are issued in one or more Series. The dividend rate
on each Series may change every seven days, as set pursuant to a dutch auction
process by the auction agent, and is payable at or near the end of each rate
period. The number of Preferred shares outstanding, by Series and in total, for
each Fund is as follows:

Insurance

Insured California Premium Income (NPC) and Insured California Premium Income 2
(NCL) invest in municipal securities which are either covered by insurance or
are backed by an escrow or trust account containing sufficient U.S. Government
or U.S. Government agency securities, both of which ensure the timely payment of
principal and interest.

Insured California Dividend Advantage (NKL) and Insured California Tax-Free
Advantage (NKX) invest at least 80% of their net assets (including net assets
applicable to Preferred shares) in municipal securities that are covered by
insurance. Each Fund may also invest up to 20% of its net assets (including net
assets applicable to Preferred shares) in municipal securities which are either
(i) backed by an escrow or trust containing sufficient U.S. Government or U.S.
Government agency securities, or (ii) municipal bonds that are rated, at the
time of investment, within the four highest grades (Baa or BBB or better by
Moody's, S&P or Fitch) or 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
Funds' 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 Funds
ultimately dispose 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 is effective only while the municipal securities are held by the
Funds. Accordingly, neither the prices used in determining the market value of
the underlying municipal securities nor the Common share net asset value of the
Funds include value, if any, attributable to the Portfolio Insurance. Each
policy of the Portfolio Insurance does, however, give the Funds the right to
obtain permanent insurance with respect to the municipal security covered by the
Portfolio Insurance policy at the time of its sale.

Derivative Financial Instruments

The Funds may invest in certain derivative financial instruments including
futures, forward, swap and option contracts, and other financial instruments
with similar characteristics. Although the Funds are authorized to invest in
such financial instruments, and may do so in the future, they did not make any
such investments during the six months ended February 29, 2004.

Custodian Fee Credit

Each Fund has an arrangement with the custodian bank whereby certain custodian
fees and expenses are reduced by credits earned on each Fund's cash on deposit
with the bank. Such deposit arrangements are an alternative to overnight
investments.

Offering Costs

Nuveen Investments, LLC has agreed to pay all Common share offering costs (other
than the sales load) that exceed $.03 per Common share for Insured California
Tax-Free Advantage (NKX). Insured California Tax-Free Advantage's (NKX) share of
Common share offering costs ($176,250) was recorded as a reduction of the
proceeds from the sale of Common shares.

Costs incurred by Insured California Tax-Free Advantage (NKX) in connection with
its offering of Preferred shares ($1,044,953) were recorded as a reduction to
paid-in surplus.

Indemnifications

Under the Funds' organizational documents, its Officers and Directors/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.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States 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.

Sidebar text: NUVEEN MAKES REINVESTING EASY. A PHONE CALL IS ALL IT TAKES TO SET
UP YOUR REINVESTMENT ACCOUNT.



NUVEEN CLOSED-END EXCHANGE-TRADED FUNDS DIVIDEND REINVESTMENT PLAN

Your Nuveen Closed-End Exchange-Traded 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
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. 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
shares may increase before purchases are completed, the average purchase price
per share may exceed the market price at the time of valuation, resulting in the
acquisition of fewer shares than if the dividend or distribution had been paid
in shares issued by the Fund. A pro rata portion of any applicable brokerage
commissions on open market purchases will be paid by Plan participants. These
commissions usually will be lower than those charged on individual transactions.

FLEXIBILITY

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.

For more information on the Nuveen Automatic Reinvestment Plan or to enroll in
or withdraw from the Plan, speak with your financial advisor or call us at (800)
257-8787.

POLICY CHANGE

On February 25, 2004, the Board approved policies that would allow each Fund, at
the discretion of the Adviser, to engage in certain types of derivative
transactions for the purpose of hedging interest rate risk. There is no
guarantee that the Adviser will cause a Fund to enter into such transactions. If
a Fund were to engage in hedging, there is no guarantee that such hedging will
be successful or that it will not reduce the Fund's total return.

PROXY VOTING POLICIES AND PROCEDURES

A description of the policies and procedures that the Funds use to determine how
to vote proxies relating to portfolio securities is available (i) without
charge, upon request, by calling Nuveen Investments at (800) 257-8787; and (ii)
on the Commission's website at http://www.sec.gov.

GLOSSARY OF TERMS USED IN THIS REPORT

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 (including change in NAV and reinvested dividends) that
would have been necessary on an annual basis to equal the investment's actual
performance over the time period being considered.

Average Effective Maturity: The average of all the maturities of the bonds in a
fund's portfolio, computed by weighting each maturity date (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.

Leverage-Adjusted Duration: Duration is a measure of a bond or bond fund's
sensitivity to changes in interest rates. Generally, the longer a bond 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 generally longer than the duration of the actual
portfolio of individual bonds that make up the Fund.

Market Yield (also known as Dividend Yield or Current Yield): An investment's
