Chairman's
Letter to Shareholders
[PHOTO OF ROBERT P. BREMNER]
DEAR SHAREHOLDERS,
The problems in the U.S. financial system and the slowdown in global economic
activity continue to create a very difficult environment for the U.S. economy.
The administration, the Federal Reserve System and Congress have initiated a
variety of programs directed at restoring liquidity to the financial markets,
providing financial support for critical financial institutions and stimulating
economic activity. There are encouraging signs that these initiatives are
beginning to have a constructive impact. It is not possible to predict whether
the actions taken to date will be sufficient to restore more normal conditions
in the financial markets or enable the economy to stabilize and set a course
toward recovery. However, the speed and scope of the government's actions are
very encouraging and, more importantly, reflect a commitment to act decisively
to meet the economic challenges we face.
The performance information in the attached report reflects the impact of many
forces at work in the equity and fixed income markets. The comments by the
portfolio managers describe the strategies being used to pursue your Fund's
long-term investment goals. Parts of the financial markets continue to
experience serious dislocations and thorough research and strong investment
disciplines have never been more important in identifying risks and
opportunities. I hope you will read this information carefully.
Your Board is particularly sensitive to our shareholders' concerns in these
uncertain times. We believe that frequent and thorough communication is
essential in this regard and encourage you to visit the Nuveen website:
www.nuveen.com, for recent developments in all Nuveen funds. We also encourage
you to communicate with your financial consultant for answers to your questions
and to seek advice on your long-term investment strategy in the current market
environment.
On behalf of myself and 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

Portfolio Managers' Comments
Nuveen Investments Municipal Closed-End Funds NUV, NUW, NMI
Portfolio managers Tom Spalding and Johnathan Wilhelm review key investment
strategies and the six-month performance of NUV and NMI, and the initial
investment period for NUW. With 33 years of investment experience at Nuveen, Tom
has managed NUV since its inception in 1987. In February 2009, he added
portfolio management responsibility for the newly introduced Nuveen Municipal
Value Fund 2 (NUW). Johnathan, who came to Nuveen in 2001 with 19 years of
industry experience, has served as co-portfolio manager of NMI since 2007, and
assumed full portfolio management responsibility for this Fund in March 2009.
WHAT KEY STRATEGIES WERE USED TO MANAGE THE FUNDS DURING THE SIX-MONTH PERIOD
ENDED APRIL 30, 2009?
During this time, the municipal market remained under pressure from price
volatility, reduced liquidity, and fundamental economic concerns. After a very
difficult start to the period, market conditions began to show signs of
improvement in mid-December 2008, and municipal bonds were on an improving trend
during the first four months of 2009. In this environment, we continued to focus
on finding bonds that offered relative value while seeking to invest for the
long term.
Much of our investment activity during this period was driven by opportunities
created by market conditions. We sought to capitalize on this environment by
continuing to take a bottom-up approach to finding undervalued sectors and
individual credits with the potential to perform well over the long term. This
was true in both the new issuance and secondary markets. In the new issuance
market, we found bonds with better structures (such as higher coupons or longer
call protection) than we had seen in a long time, as market conditions required
issuers to enhance offerings to make them more attractive to buyers. In the
secondary markets, we were able to purchase bonds, especially lower-rated
issues, at discounted prices as the result of selling by some municipal market
participants, particularly in November and December 2008.
Our focus in both Funds was on bonds issued by essential service providers,
including water and sewer, utilities, local public schools, hospitals and state
and local general obligation and other tax-backed bonds. During the latter part
of this period, NMI took advantage of attractive prices to add bonds that have
been out of favor with the market, but which we believe have good performance
potential over the next few years, such as community development district and
tobacco bonds. In general, we focused our purchases on bonds with longer
maturities. Overall, we kept the portfolio profile of NUV and NMI--in terms of
maturity, credit and sector allocations--relatively unchanged.

In both NUV and NMI, some of the cash for new purchases was generated by bond
calls and redemptions. In NMI, we also monitored the types of credits and bond
structures that were attractive to the retail market and took advantage of
strong bids to sell selected bonds, including pre-refunded bonds(1) and
utilities issues, into relatively consistent retail demand. The bonds we sold
tended to have shorter maturities, as these generally were in greater demand by
retail buyers.
During this period, we continued to use inverse floating rate securities(2) in
both NUV and NMI. We employed inverse floaters for a variety of reasons,
including duration(3) management and income enhancement. NMI also invested in
additional types of derivatives(4) intended to help manage its duration and net
asset value (NAV) volatility without having a negative impact on its income
stream or dividends over the short term. As of April 30, 2009, the inverse
floaters remained in place in both Funds, while we had removed the derivative
positions from NMI.
In February 2009, we introduced the Nuveen Municipal Value Fund 2 (NUW),
which--like NUV--was established as an unleveraged Fund that invests in a
diversified portfolio of tax-exempt municipal obligations. During the period
between the Fund's inception and April 30, 2009, we focused on the successful
completion of the Fund's initial investment phase. By the period end, NUW was
fully invested and had met and/or exceeded all of its targeted objectives in
terms of individual credit quality, diversification, and yield expectations. Our
purchases during the investment phase primarily focused on bonds that we
believed would achieve the portfolio's objective of providing attractive monthly
income exempt from federal taxes, including the alternative minimum tax (AMT),
and attractive after-tax total returns over the long term. This included bonds
that offered longer maturities, good call protection, and diversification in
terms of credit quality and sector, such as general and limited tax obligations,
health care, transportation, utilities, and other essential services bonds.

* Six-month returns are cumulative; returns for one-year, five-year, and
ten-year are annualized.
** NUW's cumulative return represents the period from its inception on
February 25, 2009, through April 30, 2009.
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.
(1) Pre-refundings, also known as advance refundings or refinancings, occur
when an issuer sells new bonds and uses the proceeds to fund principal and
interest payments of older existing bonds. This process often results in
lower borrowing costs for bond issuers.
(2) An inverse floating rate security, also known as inverse floaters, 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 the reporting period, are further defined within the
Notes to Financial Statements and Glossary of Terms Used in this Report
sections of this report.
(3) Duration is a measure of a bond's price sensitivity as interest rates
change, with longer duration bonds displaying more sensitivity to these
changes than bonds with shorter durations.
(4) Each Fund may invest in derivative instruments such as forwards, futures,
options and swap transactions. For additional information on the
derivative instruments in which each Fund was invested during and at the
end of the reporting period, see the Portfolio of Investments, Financial
Statements, and Notes to Financial Statements sections of this report.
(5) The Lipper General and Insured Unleveraged Municipal Debt Funds Average is
calculated using the returns of all closed-end funds in this category for
each period as follows: six-months, 8 funds; one-year, 8 funds; five-year,
7 funds; and ten-year, 7 funds. Fund and Lipper returns assume
reinvestment of dividends.
(6) The Barclays Capital (formerly Lehman Brothers) Municipal Bond Index is an
unlever-aged, unmanaged national index comprising a broad range of
investment-grade municipal bonds. Results for the Barclays Capital index
do not reflect any expenses.
(7) The Standard & Poor's (S&P) National Municipal Bond Index is an
unleveraged, market value-weighted index designed to measure the
performance of the U.S. municipal bond market.
Nuveen Investments 5
For the six months ended April 30, 2009, the cumulative returns on net asset
value (NAV) for NUV and NMI outperformed the average return for the Lipper
General and Insured Unleveraged Municipal Debt Funds Average. The six-month
return for NMI slightly exceeded the return on the Standard & Poor's (S&P)
National Municipal Bond Index, while NUV lagged this return. Both Funds
underperformed the Barclays Capital Municipal Bond Index for this period. As
noted previously, NUW's return represents just the two-month period between its
inception and April 30, 2009.
Key management factors that influenced the Funds' returns during this period
included duration and yield curve positioning, the use of derivatives, credit
and sector allocations and individual security selection.
Over this period, the municipal bond yield curve remained steep with longer-term
yields significantly higher than shorter-term yields. Bonds in the Barclays
Capital Municipal Bond Index maturing in ten years or more, especially bonds
with maturities of approximately 15 years and 22 years and longer benefited the
most from this interest rate environment. Both NUM and NMI had good exposure to
the longer parts of the yield curve, which benefited their performances during
this period.
As mentioned earlier, NUV and NMI continued to use inverse floating rate
securities. During this six-month period these instruments generally had a
positive impact on the Funds' performances, while also helping to support their
income streams. In addition, NMI, which had a duration that was shorter than our
strategic target, used derivative positions during part of this period to
synthetically extend its duration closer to the target. These derivative
positions, which boosted the Fund's interest rate sensitivity, performed well
and made a positive contribution to NMI's total return performance.
Credit quality exposure was also an important positive factor, although its
impact was offset to a certain degree by other factors, such as duration and
yield curve positioning, sector allocation, and security selection. During the
six-month period, investors put a priority on higher quality investments. As a
result, bonds with higher credit quality typically performed very well and bonds
rated BBB or below and non-rated bonds generally posted poorer returns.
Sectors of the municipal bond market that generally contributed positively to
the Funds' returns during this period included housing, water and sewer and
education. Holdings in the transportation and utilities sectors were also
helpful. Overall, general obligation bonds tended to outperform the general
municipal market, while health care bonds, which had underperformed for some
time, reversed course and generally performed in line with the market over the
past six months.
6 Nuveen Investments
Holdings that generally detracted from the Funds' performances included
industrial development revenue (IDR) and resource recovery bonds. Zero coupon
bonds did poorly, and pre-refunded bonds, which had been the top-performing
segment of the municipal market for some time, also underperformed. Although
backed by U.S. Treasuries, the shorter effective maturities of pre-refunded
bonds hurt their performances during this period. Lower-rated bonds backed by
the 1998 master tobacco settlement agreement, also performed poorly.
NUV's returns also were negatively impacted by its holdings of Ambac-insured
bonds issued for the Las Vegas monorail project, which links various casinos on
the Las Vegas strip. The project has struggled to build ridership and turn a
profit, and proposals to extend the monorail to McCarran International Airport
remain on hold.
RECENT DEVELOPMENTS REGARDING BOND INSURANCE COMPANIES
Another factor that had an impact on the performance of these Funds was their
positions in bonds backed by municipal bond insurers that experienced downgrades
in their credit ratings. At the time this report was prepared, there were no
bond insurers rated AAA by all three of the major rating agencies (Moody's
Investor Service, S&P and Fitch) and at least one rating agency has placed each
insurer on "negative credit watch," "credit watch evolving," "credit outlook
developing," or "rating withdrawn," which may presage one or more rating
reductions in the future. As concern increased about the balance sheets of
insurers, prices on insured bonds - especially those bonds issued by weaker
underlying credits - declined, detracting from the Funds' performances. By the
end of this reporting period, most insured bonds were being valued according to
their fundamentals as if they were uninsured. On the whole, the holdings of
these Funds continued to be well diversified, and it is important to note that
municipal bonds historically have had a very low rate of default.

Dividend and Share Price Information
During the six-month period ended April 30, 2009, NMI had one monthly dividend
increase, while the dividend of NUV remained stable throughout the period. On
April 1, 2009, NUW, which was introduced in February 2009, declared its initial
monthly dividend distribution of $0.0750 per share, payable on May 1, 2009.
Due to normal portfolio activity, common shareholders of NUV received an
ordinary income distribution of $0.0020 per share at the end of December 2008.
The 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 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 April 30, 2009, all of the Funds had positive
UNII balances, based upon our best estimate, for tax purposes. NUV and NMI had
positive UNII balances, while NUW had a negative UNII balance for financial
statement purposes.
COMMON SHARE REPURCHASES AND SHARE PRICE INFORMATION
The Funds' Board of Directors/Trustees approved an open-market share repurchase
program on July 30, 2008, for NUV and NMI under which each Fund may repurchase
an aggregate of up to 10% of its outstanding common shares. Since the inception
of this program, NUV and NMI have not repurchased any of their outstanding
common shares. As noted previously, NUW commenced operations on February 25,
2009.
As of April 30, 2009, the Funds' share prices were trading at premiums or
discounts to their NAVs as shown in the accompanying table:
4/30/09 SIX-MONTH
+PREMIUM/-DISCOUNT AVERAGE PREMIUM

(1) The percentages shown in the foregoing chart may reflect the ratings on
certain bonds whose insurer has experienced downgrades as of the end of
the reporting period. Please see the Portfolio Managers' Commentary for an
expanded discussion of the affect on the Fund of changes to the ratings of
certain bonds in the portfolio resulting from changes to the ratings of
the underlying insurers both during the period and after period end.
(2) Taxable-Equivalent Yield represents the yield that must be earned on a
fully taxable investment in order to equal the yield of the Fund on an
after-tax basis. It is based on a federal income tax rate of 28%. When
comparing the Fund to investments that generate qualified dividend income,
the Taxable-Equivalent Yield is lower.

| Notes to FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
1. GENERAL INFORMATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The funds covered in this report and their corresponding New York Stock Exchange
symbols are Nuveen Municipal Value Fund, Inc. (NUV), Nuveen Municipal Value Fund
2 (NUW) and Nuveen Municipal Income Fund, Inc. (NMI) (collectively, the
"Funds"). The Funds are registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
amended, as closed-end, diversified management investment companies.
Prior to the commencement of operations, Municipal Value Fund 2 (NUW) had no
operations other than those related to organizational matters, the initial
capital contribution of $100,275 by Nuveen Asset Management (the "Advisor"), a
wholly owned subsidiary of Nuveen Investments, Inc. ("Nuveen"), and the
recording of the organization expense ($15,000) and their reimbursement by
Nuveen Investments, LLC, also a wholly owned subsidiary of Nuveen.
Each Fund's primary investment objective is to provide current income exempt
from regular federal income tax by investing primarily in a portfolio of
municipal obligations issued by state and local government authorities or
certain US territories.
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 Directors/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 absence of a pricing service for a particular
investment, the Board of Directors/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 securities dealers,
evaluations of anticipated cash flows or collateral, general market conditions
and other information 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 April 30, 2009, Municipal
Value 2 (NUW) had outstanding when issued/delayed delivery purchase commitments
of $14,559,550. There were no such outstanding purchase commitments in either 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.
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.
Nuveen Investments 39
| Notes to FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) (Unaudited)
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, 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 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 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.
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
accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 140 (SFAS No.
140) "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and
Extinguishment of Liabilities." 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," 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.
During the six months ended April 30, 2009, Municipal Value (NUV) and Municipal
Income (NMI) invested in externally-deposited inverse floaters and/or
self-deposited inverse floaters. During the period February 25, 2009
(commencement of operations) through April 30, 2009, Municipal Value 2 (NUW)
invested in externally-deposited inverse floaters.
40 Nuveen Investments
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 April 30, 2009, each Fund's maximum exposure to externally-deposited Recourse
Trusts is as follows:
MUNICIPAL MUNICIPAL MUNICIPAL
VALUE (NUV) VALUE 2 (NUW) INCOME (NMI)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Maximum exposure $ 7,500,000 $ 2,000,000 $ 3,005,000
================================================================================
The average floating rate obligations outstanding and average annual interest
rate and fees related to self-deposited inverse floaters during the six months
ended April 30, 2009, were as follows:
MUNICIPAL MUNICIPAL
VALUE (NUV) INCOME (NMI)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Average floating rate obligations $ 28,870,000 $ 3,335,000
Average annual interest rate and fees 1.01% 0.95%
================================================================================
Futures Contracts
Each Fund is authorized to invest in futures contracts. 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." Subsequent payments ("variation
margin") are made or received by a Fund each day, depending on the daily
fluctuation of the value of the contract.
During the period the futures contract is open, changes in the value of the
contract are recognized as an unrealized gain or loss by "marking-to-market" on
a daily basis to reflect the changes in market value of the contract. 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. Cash held by the broker to cover
initial margin requirements on open futures contracts, if any, is recognized on
the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Additionally, the Statement of Assets
and Liabilities reflects a receivable or payable for the variation margin, when
applicable. Municipal Income (NMI) invested in futures contracts during the six
months ended April 30, 2009.
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.
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.
Organization and Offering Costs
Nuveen Investments, LLC has agreed to reimburse all organization expenses
($15,000) and pay all offering costs (other than the sales load) that exceed
$.03 per share of Municipal Value 2 (NUW) share. Municipal Value 2's (NUW) share
of offering costs ($378,000) were recorded as reductions of the proceeds from
the sale of shares.
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.
Indemnifications
Under the Funds' organizational documents, their 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. 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 from operations during the reporting period. Actual results may differ
from those estimates.
2. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
During the current fiscal period, the Funds adopted the provisions of Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157 (SFAS No. 157) "Fair Value
Measurements." SFAS No. 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for
measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands
disclosure about 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 April 30, 2009:
MUNICIPAL VALUE (NUV) LEVEL 1 LEVEL 2 LEVEL 3 TOTAL
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

3. FUND SHARES
On July 30, 2008, Municipal Value's (NUV) and Municipal Income's (NMI) Board of
Directors approved a program under which each Fund may repurchase an aggregate
of up to approximately 10% of its outstanding shares. Municipal Value (NUV) and
Municipal Income (NMI) did not repurchase any of their shares during the six
months ended April 30, 2009, or the fiscal year ended October 31, 2008.
Transactions in shares were as follows:

5. 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 investments
transactions and the treatment of investments in inverse floating rate
transactions subject to SFAS No. 140, 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 April 30, 2009, the cost of investments was as follows:
MUNICIPAL MUNICIPAL MUNICIPAL

6. MANAGEMENT FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
Each Fund's management fee is separated into 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, and for Municipal Value (NUV) a gross interest
income component. 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.
Municipal Value's (NUV) annual fund-level fee, payable monthly, at the rates set
forth below, are based upon the average daily net assets of the Fund as follows:
MUNICIPAL VALUE (NUV)
AVERAGE DAILY NET ASSETS (1) FUND-LEVEL FEE RATE
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
For the first $500 million .1500%
For the next $500 million .1250
For net assets over $1 billion .1000
================================================================================
In addition, Municipal Value (NUV) pays an annual management fee, payable
monthly, based on gross interest income (excluding interest on bonds underlying
a "self-deposited inverse floater" trust that is attributed to the Fund over and
above the net interest earned on the inverse floater itself) as follows:
MUNICIPAL VALUE (NUV)
GROSS INTEREST INCOME GROSS INCOME FEE RATE
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
For the first $50 million 4.125%
For the next $50 million 4.000
For gross income over $100 million 3.875
================================================================================
44 Nuveen Investments
Municipal Value 2's (NUW) annual fund-level fee, payable monthly, at the rates
set forth below, are based upon the average daily managed assets of the Fund as
follows:
MUNICIPAL VALUE 2 (NUW)
AVERAGE DAILY MANAGED NET ASSETS (1) FUND-LEVEL FEE RATE
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
For the first $125 million .4000%
For the next $125 million .3875
For the next $250 million .3750
For the next $500 million .3625
For the next $1 billion .3500
For net assets over $2 billion .3375
================================================================================
Municipal Income's (NMI) annual fund-level fee, payable monthly, at the rates
set forth below, are based upon the average daily net assets of the Fund as
follows:
MUNICIPAL INCOME (NMI)
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
================================================================================
The annual complex-level fee, payable monthly, which is additive to the
fund-level fee and Municipal Value's (NUV) gross interest income fee, for all
Nuveen sponsored funds in the U.S., is based on the aggregate amount of total
fund assets managed as stated in the following table. As of April 30, 2009, the
complex-level fee rate was .1998%.
The complex-level fee schedule is as follows:
EFFECTIVE RATE
COMPLEX-LEVEL NET ASSET BREAKPOINT LEVEL (1) 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 includes 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.
Nuveen Investments 45
| Notes to FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) (Unaudited)
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 Directors/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
Directors/Trustees has adopted a deferred compensation plan for independent
Directors/Trustees that enables Directors/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.
7. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 161 (SFAS No. 161) In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, "Disclosures
about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." This standard is intended
to enhance financial statement disclosures for derivative instruments and
hedging activities and enable investors to understand: a) how and why a fund
uses derivative instruments, b) how derivative instruments and related hedge
items are accounted for, and c) how derivative instruments and related hedge
items affect a fund's financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
SFAS No. 161 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and
interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008. As of October 31, 2008,
management does not believe the adoption of SFAS No. 161 will impact the
financial statement amounts; however, additional footnote disclosures may be
required about the use of derivative instruments and hedging items.
Financial Accounting Standards Board Staff Position No. 157-4 (FSP No. 157-4)
On April 9, 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued FSP No. 157-4,
"Determining Fair Value When the Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset or
Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying Transactions That Are Not
Orderly." FSP No. 157-4 provides additional guidance for estimating fair value
in accordance with SFAS No. 157, "Fair Value Measurements," when the volume and
level of activity for the asset or liability have significantly decreased. FSP
No. 157-4 also requires additional disaggregation of the current SFAS No. 157
required disclosures. FSP No. 157-4 is effective for interim and annual
reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009, and shall be applied
prospectively. At this time, management is evaluating the implications of FSP
No. 157-4 and the impact it will have on the financial statement disclosures.

* 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 takes 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 Net Asset Value is the combination of changes in 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 custodian fee credit and legal fee refund, where applicable.
*** Annualized.
(a) Interest expense arises from the application of SFAS No. 140 to certain
inverse floating rate transactions entered into by the Fund as more fully
described in Footnote 1 - Inverse Floating Rate Securities.
(b) For the six months ended April 30, 2009.

Nuveen Investments 49
Annual Investment Management Agreement Approval Process
The Board of Trustees (the "Board," and each Trustee, a "Board Member") of the
Nuveen Municipal Value Fund 2 (the "Fund") is responsible for approving the
Fund's advisory arrangements and, at a meeting held on January 27, 2009 (the
"Meeting"), the Board Members, including the Board Members who are not parties
to the investment management agreement or "interested persons" of any such party
(the "Independent Board Members") considered and approved the investment
management agreement (the "Investment Management Agreement") between the Fund
and Nuveen Asset Management ("NAM").
To assist the Board in its evaluation of the Investment Management Agreement at
the Meeting, the Independent Board Members had received, in adequate time in
advance of the Meeting or at prior meetings, materials which outlined, among
other things:
o the nature, extent and quality of services expected to be provided by NAM;
o the organization of NAM, including the responsibilities of various
departments and key personnel;
o the expertise and background of NAM with respect to the Fund's investment
strategy;
o the performance records of NAM and of a similar Nuveen fund (as described
below);
o the profitability of Nuveen Investments, Inc. ("Nuveen") (which
incorporated Nuveen's wholly-owned affiliated sub-advisers);
o the proposed management fees of NAM, including comparisons of such fees
with the management fees of comparable, unaffiliated funds, as well as
comparable, affiliated funds;
o the advisory fees NAM assesses to other types of investment products or
clients;
o the expected expenses of the Fund, including comparisons of the Fund's
expected expense ratio with the expense ratios of comparable, unaffiliated
funds, as well as comparable, affiliated funds; and
o the soft dollar practices of NAM, if any.
At the Meeting, NAM made a presentation to and responded to questions from the
Board. During the Meeting, the Independent Board Members also met privately with
their legal counsel to review the Board's duties under the Investment Company
Act of 1940 (the "1940 Act"), the general principles of state law in reviewing
and approving advisory contracts, the standards used by courts in determining
whether investment company boards of directors have fulfilled their duties,
factors to be considered in voting on advisory contracts and an adviser's
fiduciary duty with respect to advisory agreements and compensation. It is with
this background that the Independent Board Members considered the advisory
agreement with NAM for the Fund. As outlined in
50 NUVEEN INVESTMENTS
more detail below, the Independent Board Members considered all factors they
believed relevant with respect to the Fund, including the following: (a) the
nature, extent and quality of the services to be provided by NAM; (b) investment
performance, as described below; (c) the profitability of Nuveen and its
affiliates; (d) the extent to which economies of scale would be realized; and
(e) whether fee levels reflect these economies of scale for the benefit of Fund
investors.
A. NATURE, EXTENT AND QUALITY OF SERVICES
The Independent Board Members considered the nature, extent and quality of NAM's
services, including advisory services and administrative services. As NAM
already serves as adviser to other Nuveen funds overseen by the Board Members,
the Board has a good understanding of NAM's organization, operations and
personnel. As the Independent Board Members meet regularly throughout the year
to oversee the Nuveen funds, including funds currently advised by NAM, the
Independent Board Members have relied upon their knowledge from their meetings
and any other interactions throughout the year of NAM and its services in
evaluating the Investment Management Agreement.
At the Meeting and at prior meetings, the Independent Board Members reviewed
materials outlining, among other things, Nuveen's organization and business; the
types of services that NAM or its affiliates provide to the Nuveen funds and are
expected to provide to the Fund; and NAM's experience with applicable investment
strategies. The Independent Board Members further evaluated the professional
experience, qualifications and credentials of NAM's investment personnel. In
addition to advisory services, the Independent Board Members considered the
quality of any administrative or non-advisory services to be provided. In this
regard, NAM is expected to provide the Fund with such administrative and other
services (exclusive of, and in addition to, any such services provided by others
for the Fund) and officers and other personnel as are necessary for the
operations of the Fund. In addition to investment management services, NAM and
its affiliates will provide the Fund with a wide range of services, including,
among other things, product management, fund administration, oversight of
service providers, shareholder services, administration of Board relations,
regulatory and portfolio compliance and legal support.
In addition to the foregoing services, the Independent Board Members also noted
the additional services that NAM or its affiliates provide to closed-end funds,
including, in particular, its secondary market support activities and the costs
of such activities. The Independent Board Members have recognized Nuveen's
continued commitment to supporting the secondary market for the common shares of
its closed-end funds through a variety of programs designed to raise investor
and analyst awareness and understanding of closed-end funds. These efforts
include maintaining an investor relations program to timely provide information
and education to financial advisers and investors; providing advertising and
marketing for the closed-end funds; maintaining its closed-end fund website; and
providing educational seminars.
NUVEEN INVESTMENTS 51
Annual Investment Management Agreement
Approval Process (continued)
Based on their review, the Independent Board Members found that, overall, the
nature, extent and quality of services expected to be provided to the Fund under
the Investment Management Agreement were satisfactory.
B. INVESTMENT PERFORMANCE
The Fund is new and therefore does not have its own performance history.
However, the Independent Board Members are familiar with NAM's performance
record on other Nuveen funds. The Fund is expected to be similar to another
national municipal closed-end fund launched by Nuveen in 1987. The Board Members
had previously been provided with certain performance information for such fund,
including net asset value (NAV) performance information for the quarter,
year-to-date, one-year, three-year and five-year periods ending September 30,
2008.
C. FEES, EXPENSES AND PROFITABILITY
1. FEES AND EXPENSES
In evaluating the management fees and expenses that the Fund was expected
to bear, the Independent Board Members considered, among other things, the
Fund's proposed management fee structure and its expected expense ratios in
absolute terms as well as compared with the fees and expense ratios of
comparable, unaffiliated funds and comparable, affiliated funds. In this
regard, the Independent Board Members noted that there are very few
comparable, unaffiliated funds.
In addition, the Fund was not expected to issue preferred shares; however,
the Board Members noted that it may make investments in inverse floating
rate securities (including inverse floating rate securities representing
interests in so-called "tender option bond trusts" formed by third-party
sponsors for the purpose of holding municipal bonds). The Independent Board
Members recognized that assets financed through the creation of tender
option bond trusts in which the Fund may invest would be included in the
amount of assets upon which the advisory fee is calculated. In this regard,
the Independent Board Members noted that the advisory fee is based on a
percentage of average daily "Managed Assets." "Managed Assets" generally
means the total assets of the Fund (including proceeds from the Fund's use
of financial leverage such as, but not limited to, proceeds from tender
option bond trusts) minus the sum of accrued liabilities (other than Fund
liabilities incurred for the express purpose of creating financial
leverage). Accordingly, the advisory fees paid to NAM for investment
advisory services will be higher if the Fund uses financial leverage, which
may create a conflict of interest between NAM and Fund shareholders. This
methodology is consistent with that used on Nuveen taxable leveraged funds.
The Independent Board Members also considered the fund-level breakpoint
schedule and the complex-wide breakpoint schedule (described in further
detail below) and any applicable expense reimbursements to be provided.
Based on their review of the fee and expense information provided, the
Independent Board Members determined that the Fund's management fees and
net total expense ratio were reasonable in light of the nature, extent and
quality of services to be provided to the Fund.
52 NUVEEN INVESTMENTS
2. COMPARISONS WITH THE FEES OF OTHER CLIENTS
Due to their experience with other Nuveen funds, the Board Members were
familiar with the fees NAM assesses to other clients of Nuveen or its
affiliates, including NAM's municipal separately managed accounts. In
evaluating the comparisons of fees, the Independent Board Members have
noted, at the Meeting or at prior meetings, that the fee rates charged to a
fund (such as the Fund) and charged to other clients vary, among other
things, because of the different services involved and the additional
regulatory and compliance requirements associated with registered
investment companies, such as the Fund. Accordingly, the Independent Board
Members have considered the differences in the product types, including,
but not limited to, the services to be provided, the structure and
operations, product distribution and costs thereof, portfolio investment
policies, investor profiles, account sizes and regulatory requirements. The
Independent Board Members have noted, in particular, that the range of
services as described above to be provided to a fund (such as the Fund) is
much more extensive than that provided to separately managed accounts.
Given the inherent differences in the products, particularly the extensive
services to be provided to a fund, the Independent Board Members believe
such facts justify the different levels of fees.
3. PROFITABILITY OF NUVEEN
In conjunction with its review of fees at prior meetings, the Independent
Board Members have considered the profitability of Nuveen for its advisory
activities (which incorporated Nuveen's wholly-owned affiliated
sub-advisers) and its financial condition. At the Meeting or prior
meetings, the Independent Board Members reviewed the revenues and expenses
of Nuveen's advisory activities and the allocation methodology used in
preparing the profitability data. The Independent Board Members have also
considered, at the Meeting or at prior meetings, Nuveen's profitability
compared with other fund sponsors prepared by two independent third party
service providers as well as comparisons of the revenues, expenses and
profit margins of various unaffiliated management firms with similar
amounts of assets under management prepared by Nuveen.
In reviewing profitability, the Independent Board Members have recognized
the subjective nature of determining profitability, which may be affected
by numerous factors, including the allocation of expenses. Further, the
Independent Board Members have recognized the difficulties in making
comparisons as the profitability of other advisers generally is not
publicly available and the profitability information that is available for
certain advisers or management firms may not be representative of the
industry and may be affected by, among other things, the adviser's
particular business mix, capital costs, types of funds managed and expense
allocations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Independent Board Members
reviewed Nuveen's methodology and assumptions for allocating expenses
across product lines to determine profitability. In reviewing
profitability, the Independent Board Members recognized Nuveen's investment
in its fund business. The Independent Board Members further received the
Form 8-K of Nuveen for the quarter ending September 30, 2008. Based on its
review, the Independent Board Members
NUVEEN INVESTMENTS 53
Annual Investment Management Agreement
Approval Process (continued)
concluded that Nuveen's level of profitability for its advisory activities
was reasonable in light of the services to be provided.
In evaluating the reasonableness of the compensation, the Independent Board
Members also considered any other amounts expected to be paid to NAM as
well as any indirect benefits (such as soft dollar arrangements, if any)
NAM and its affiliates are expected to receive that are directly
attributable to their management of the Fund, if any. See Section E below
for additional information on indirect benefits NAM may receive as a result
of its relationship with the Fund. Based on their review of the overall fee
arrangements of the Fund, the Independent Board Members determined that the
advisory fees and expected expenses of the Fund were reasonable.
D. ECONOMIES OF SCALE AND WHETHER FEE LEVELS REFLECT THESE ECONOMIES OF SCALE
With respect to economies of scale, the Independent Board Members recognized the
potential benefits resulting from the costs of the Fund being spread over a
larger asset base. The Independent Board Members therefore considered whether
the Fund could be expected to benefit from any economies of scale. In
considering economies of scale, the Independent Board Members have recognized
that economies of scale are difficult to measure and predict with precision.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, one method to help ensure that shareholders share
in these benefits is to include breakpoints in the advisory fee schedule.
Accordingly, the Independent Board Members received and reviewed the schedule of
proposed advisory fees for the Fund, including fund-level breakpoints thereto.
In this regard, given that the Fund is a closed-end fund, the Independent Board
Members recognized that although the Fund may from time to time make additional
share offerings, the growth in its assets will occur primarily through
appreciation of its investment portfolio.
In addition to fund-level advisory fee breakpoints, the Board also considered
the Fund's complex-wide fee arrangement. Pursuant to the complex-wide fee
arrangement, the fees of the funds in the Nuveen complex, including the Fund,
are reduced as the assets in the fund complex reach certain levels. In
evaluating the complex-wide fee arrangement, the Independent Board Members have
considered that the complex-wide fee arrangement seeks to provide the benefits
of economies of scale to fund shareholders when total fund complex assets
increase, even if assets of a particular fund are unchanged or have decreased.
The approach reflects the notion that some of Nuveen's costs are attributable to
services provided to all its funds in the complex and therefore all funds
benefit if these costs are spread over a larger asset base. Based on their
review, the Independent Board Members concluded that the breakpoint schedule and
complex-wide fee arrangement were acceptable and desirable in providing benefits
from economies of scale to shareholders of the Fund.
54 NUVEEN INVESTMENTS
E. INDIRECT BENEFITS
In evaluating fees, the Independent Board Members also considered information
regarding potential "fall out" or ancillary benefits NAM or its affiliates may
receive as a result of its relationship with the Fund. In this regard, the
Independent Board Members considered the revenues received by affiliates of NAM
for serving as agent at Nuveen's preferred trading desk and for serving as a
co-manager in the initial public offering of new closed-end exchange traded
funds.
In addition to the above, the Independent Board Members considered whether NAM
will receive any benefits from soft dollar arrangements whereby a portion of the
commissions paid by the Fund for brokerage may be used to acquire research that
may be useful to NAM in managing the assets of the Fund and other clients. The
Independent Board Members noted that NAM does not currently have any soft dollar
arrangements; however, to the extent certain bona fide agency transactions that
occur on markets that traditionally trade on a principal basis and riskless
principal transactions are considered as generating "commissions," NAM intends
to comply with the applicable safe harbor provisions.
Based on their review, the Independent Board Members concluded that any indirect
benefits received by NAM as a result of its relationship with the Fund were
reasonable and within acceptable parameters.
F. APPROVAL
The Independent Board Members did not identify any single factor discussed
previously as all-important or controlling. The Board Members, including a
majority of the Independent Board Members, concluded that the terms of the
Investment Management Agreement were fair and reasonable, that NAM's fees are
reasonable in light of the services to be provided to the Fund and that the
Investment Management Agreement should be and was approved on behalf of the
Fund.
NUVEEN INVESTMENTS 55
Reinvest Automatically
Easily and Conveniently
Nuveen makes reinvesting easy. 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
56 Nuveen Investments
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 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.

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 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.
o 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.
58 Nuveen Investments
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 share is calculated by subtracting
the liabilities of 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 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.
