Chairman's
LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS
| Robert P. Bremner | Chairman of the Board
Dear Shareholders,
I'd like to use my initial letter to you to accomplish several things. First, I
want to report that after fourteen years of service on your Fund's Board,
including the last twelve as chairman, Tim Schwertfeger retired from the Board
in June. The Board has elected me to replace him as the chairman, the first time
this role has been filled by someone who is not an employee of Nuveen
Investments. Electing an independent chairman marks a significant milestone in
the management of your Fund, and it aligns us with what is now considered a
"best practice" in the fund industry. Further, it demonstrates the independence
with which your Board has always acted on your behalf.
Following Tim will not be easy. During my eleven previous years on the Nuveen
Fund Board, I found that Tim always set a very high standard by combining
insightful industry and market knowledge and sound, clear judgment. While the
Board will miss his wise counsel, I am certain we will retain the primary
commitment Tim shared with all of us - an unceasing dedication to creating and
retaining value for Nuveen Fund shareholders. This focus on value over time is a
touchstone that I and all the other Board members will continue to use when
making decisions on your behalf.
Second, I also want to report that we are very fortunate to welcome two new
Board members to our team. John Amboian, the current chairman and CEO of Nuveen
Investments, has replaced Tim as Nuveen's representative on the Board. John's
presence will allow the independent Board members to benefit not only from his
leadership role at Nuveen but also his broad understanding of the fund industry
and Nuveen's role within it. We also added Terry Toth as an independent
director. A former CEO of the Northern Trust Company's asset management group,
Terry will bring extensive experience in the fund industry to our deliberations.
Third, on behalf of the entire Board, I would like you to know that we are
closely monitoring the unprecedented market developments and their distressing
impact on the Funds. We believe that these Funds continue to be actively and
constructively managed for the long term and at the same time we are very aware
that these are trying times for our investors. We appreciate the patience you
have shown with the Board and with Nuveen Investments as they manage your
investment through this extremely difficult period.
Fourth, again on behalf of the entire Board, I would like to acknowledge the
effort the whole Nuveen organization is making to resolve the auction rate
preferred share situation in a satisfactory manner. As you know, we are actively
pursuing a number of possible solutions, all with the goal of providing
liquidity for preferred shareholders while preserving the potential benefits of
leverage for common shareholders. We appreciate the patience you have shown as
we've worked through the many difficulties involved.
Finally, I urge you to take the time to review the Portfolio Manager's Comments,
the Common Share Dividend and Share Price Information, and the Performance
Overview sections of this report. All of us are grateful that you have chosen
Nuveen Investments as a partner as you pursue your financial goals, and, on
behalf of myself and the other members of your Fund's Board, let me say we look
forward to continuing to earn your trust in the months and years ahead.
Sincerely,
/s/ Robert P. Bremner
Robert P. Bremner
Chairman of the Board

Portfolio Manager's COMMENTS
Nuveen Investments Municipal Closed-End Funds | NQF, NUF, NFL, NWF
Portfolio manager Daniel Close discusses key investment strategies and the
six-month performance of the Nuveen Florida Funds. Dan, who joined Nuveen in
2000, assumed portfolio management responsibility for these four Funds in 2007.
WHAT KEY STRATEGIES WERE USED TO MANAGE THE FLORIDA FUNDS DURING THE SIX-MONTH
REPORTING PERIOD ENDED OCTOBER 31, 2008?
During this period, stress in the financial markets led to increased price
volatility for many securities, reduced liquidity and a general flight to
quality. We sought to capitalize on this turbulent environment by continuing to
focus on relative value, using a fundamental approach to find undervalued
sectors and individual credits with the potential to perform well over the long
term.
Among the sectors added to all four Funds during this period were insured health
care and insured transit bonds. NQF and NUF also bought Florida housing
securities. All of these additions to the portfolios were purchased in the
longer end of the yield curve, which not only offered more value during this
period, but also helped to extend the Funds' durations(1) and enhance yields. In
addition, NFL and NWF bought an insured water and sewer issue in the
intermediate part of the curve.
To generate cash for purchases, we monitored the types of credits and bond
structures that were attractive to the retail market and took advantage of
strong bids to sell such bonds into retail demand. In NQF and NUF, we also sold
a meaningful portion of our airport holdings subject to the federal alternative
minimum tax early in the reporting period. In addition, some of our new
purchases were funded by reinvesting the proceeds from called or matured bonds.
As a key dimension of risk management, a disciplined approach to duration
positioning remained an important component of our overall strategy. As part of
this approach, we used inverse floating rate securities(2), in NQF, NUF and NFL
during this period. Inverse floaters typically provide the dual benefit of
bringing the Funds' durations closer to our strategic target and enhancing their
income-generation capabilities. NQF, NFL, and NWF also invested in certain
derivative instruments in an effort to manage common share net asset value (NAV)
volatility while trying to minimize any negative impact on
Discussions of specific investments are for illustrative purposes only and are
not intended as recommendations of individual investments. The views expressed
in this commentary represent those of the portfolio manager as of the date of
this report and are subject to change at any time, based on market conditions
and other factors. The Funds disclaim any obligation to advise shareholders of
such changes.
(1) 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.
(2) An inverse floating rate security is a financial instrument designed to pay
long-term tax-exempt interest at a rate that varies inversely with a
short-term tax-exempt interest rate index. For the Nuveen Funds, the index
typically used is the Securities Industry and Financial Markets (SIFM)
Municipal Swap Index (previously referred to as the Bond Market Association
Index or BMA). Inverse floaters, including those inverse floating rate
securities in which the Funds invested during this reporting period, are
further defined within the Notes to Financial Statements and Glossary of
Terms Used in this Report sections of this shareholder report.

income streams or common share dividends over the short term. As of October 31,
2008, we continued to use inverse floaters in NQF, NUF and NFL, while all
derivative positions had been removed from NQF, NFL and NWF.
HOW DID THE FUNDS PERFORM?
Individual results for the Nuveen Florida Funds, as well as relevant index and
peer group information, are presented in the accompanying table.

For the six months ended October 31, 2008, the cumulative returns on common
share NAV for NUF, NFL and NWF exceeded the average return on their respective
Lipper peer groups, while NQF lagged the return for the Lipper Other States
Municipal Debt Funds Average. All four of the Funds underperformed their
respective Barclays Capital index and the Standard & Poor's (S&P) National
Municipal Bond Index.
* Six-month returns are cumulative; returns for one-year, five-year and
ten-year are annualized.
Past performance is not predictive of future results. Current performance may be
higher or lower than the data shown. Returns do not reflect the deduction of
taxes that shareholders may have to pay on Fund distributions or upon the sale
of Fund shares.
For additional information, see the individual Performance Overview for your
Fund in this report.
(3) The Lipper Other States Municipal Debt Funds Average is calculated using
the returns of all closed-end funds in this category for each period as
follows: 6 months, 46; 1 year, 46; 5 years, 46; and 10 years, 18. Fund and
Lipper returns assume reinvestment of dividends. Shareholders should note
that the performance of the Lipper Other States category represents the
overall average of returns for funds from ten different states with a wide
variety of municipal market conditions, making direct comparisons less
meaningful.
(4) The Barclays Capital (formerly Lehman Brothers) Municipal Bond Index is an
unleveraged, unmanaged national index comprising a broad range of
investment-grade municipal bonds, and the Barclays Capital Insured
Municipal Bond Index is an unleveraged, unmanaged national index containing
a broad range of insured municipal bonds. Results for the Barclays Capital
indexes do not reflect any expenses.
(5) The Lipper Single-State Insured Municipal Debt Funds Average is calculated
using the returns of all closed-end funds in this category for each period
as follows: 6 months, 44; 1 year, 44 funds; 5 years, 44 funds; and 10
years, 24 funds. The performance of the Lipper Single-State Insured
Municipal Debt Funds Average represents the overall average of returns for
funds from eight different states with a wide variety of municipal market
conditions. Fund and Lipper returns assume reinvestment of dividends.
(6) The Standard & Poor's (S&P) National Municipal Bond Index is an
unleveraged, market value-weighted index designed to measure the
performance of the investment-grade U.S. municipal bond market.

Key management factors that influenced the Funds' returns during this period
included duration positioning, the use of inverse floaters, credit exposure and
sector allocations. In addition, a major factor affecting each Fund's
performance over this period was the use of leverage. The impact of leverage is
discussed in more detail on page seven.
Over the course of this reporting period, we saw the yield curve steepen, as
interest rates at the short end of the curve declined and longer rates generally
rose, especially during September and October. Given these changes in the
interest rate environment, bonds in the Barclays Capital Municipal Bond Index
with maturities of ten years or less generally outperformed the market as a
whole, with bonds maturing in one to four years benefiting the most. In general,
bonds having the longest maturities (twenty-two years and longer) posted the
worst returns. Among the non-insured Funds, NUF's duration profile was favorable
to that of NQF, which benefited NUF's relative performance. Both NFL and NWF had
a positive contribution from their duration profile. All four of these Funds,
however, were hurt by their underweighting of the outperforming shortest end of
the yield curve.
As mentioned earlier, NQF, NUF and NFL used inverse floaters during this period
to help bring their durations closer to our strategic target and enhance
income-generation capabilities. In general, these inverse floaters had a
negative impact on performance. This resulted from the fact that the inverse
floaters effectively increased the Funds' exposure to longer maturity bonds at a
time when shorter maturities were in favor in the market.
Credit exposure was also an important factor in performance during these six
months. Because risk-averse investors generally sought higher quality
investments as disruptions in the financial markets deepened, bonds with higher
credit quality typically performed very well. At the same time, bonds rated BBB
or below and non-rated bonds generally posted poor returns. Insured holdings
with underlying credits that were rated BBB or non-rated were disproportionately
impacted (compared with bonds with underlying credits rated AA or A) if the
insurer backing the bond was downgraded. As of October 31, 2008, NUF had
allocated approximately 10%, and NQF approximately 11% of their portfolios to
bonds rated BBB and non-rated credits. NWF, which can invest up to 20% of its
assets in uninsured investment-grade quality securities, had a 2% allocation to
BBB rated bonds. While investing only in insured
6
securities, NFL held 8% of its portfolio in BBB and non-rated credits, the
result of rating downgrades on certain municipal bond insurers. While exposure
to lower-rated credits had a negative impact on the Funds for this period, the
smaller weightings helped to limit the impact of this exposure.
Sectors of the market that generally contributed positively to the Funds'
performances included general and limited tax obligation issues and resource
recovery credits. Pre-refunded bonds(7), which are usually backed by U.S.
Treasury securities, were one of the top performing segments of the market, due
primarily to their shorter effective maturities, higher credit quality, and
perceived safety. Among these Funds, NWF had the largest allocation of
pre-refunded bonds as of October 31, 2008, while NUF held the smallest
allocation.
In general, bonds that carried any credit risk, regardless of sector, posted
weak performance. Revenue bonds as a whole, and the industrial development and
housing sectors in particular, underperformed the general municipal market. Next
to the industrial development revenue sector, zero coupon bonds were among the
worst performing categories in the municipal market. The health care sector also
performed poorly, as did lower-rated bonds backed by the 1998 master tobacco
settlement agreement.
IMPACT OF THE FUNDS' CAPITAL STRUCTURES AND LEVERAGE STRATEGIES ON PERFORMANCE
In addition to the factor mentioned above, one of the primary factors negatively
impacting the six-month returns of these Funds relative to those of the
unleveraged Barclays Capital Municipal Bond Index, Barclays Capital Insured
Municipal Bond Index, and S&P National Municipal Bond Index was the Funds' use
of financial leverage. While leverage offers opportunities to generate
additional income and total returns for common shareholders, the benefits
provided by leveraging are influenced by the price movements of the bonds in
each Fund's portfolio. During this period, as yields on longer-term bonds rose
and their prices correspondingly fell, declining valuations had a negative
effect on performance that was magnified by the use of leverage. In addition, at
various points during the six-month period, the Funds' borrowing costs were
relatively high, negatively impacting their total returns.
(7) 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.

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS IN THE MARKET ENVIRONMENT
Beginning in October, the nation's financial institutions and financial
markets--including the municipal bond market--experienced significant turmoil.
Reductions in demand decreased valuations of municipal bonds across all credit
ratings, especially those with lower credit ratings, and this generally reduced
the Funds' net asset values. The municipal market is one in which dealer firms
make markets in bonds on a principal basis using their proprietary capital, and
during the recent market turmoil these firms'capital was severely constrained.
As a result, some firms were unwilling to commit their capital to purchase and
to serve as a dealer for municipal bonds. This reduction in dealer involvement
in the market was accompanied by significant net selling pressure by investors,
particularly with respect to lower-rated municipal bonds, as institutional
investors generally removed money from the municipal bond market, at least in
part because of their need to reduce the leveraging of their municipal
investments. This de-leveraging was in part driven by the overall reduction in
the amount of financing available for such leverage, the increased costs of such
leverage financing, and the need to reduce leverage levels that had recently
increased due to the decline in municipal bond prices.
Municipal bond prices were further negatively impacted by concerns that the need
for further de-leveraging and a supply overhang as a large amount of new issues
were postponed would cause selling pressure to persist for a period of time. In
addition to falling prices, these market conditions resulted in greater price
volatility of municipal bonds; wider credit spreads (i.e., lower quality bonds
fell in price more than higher quality bonds); significantly reduced liquidity
(i.e., the ability to sell bonds at a price close to their carrying value),
particularly for lower quality bonds; and a lack of price transparency (i.e.,
the ability to accurately determine the price at which a bond would likely
trade). Reduced liquidity was most pronounced in mid-October, and although
liquidity improved considerably over ensuing weeks, it may reoccur if financial
turmoil persists or worsens.
RECENT DEVELOPMENTS REGARDING BOND INSURANCE COMPANIES
As mentioned earlier, another factor that had an impact on the performance of
these Funds was their position in bonds backed by municipal bond insurers that
experienced downgrades in their credit ratings. During the period covered by
this report, ACA, AMBAC, CIFG, FGIC, MBIA, RAAI and SYNCORA (formerly XLCA)
experienced one or more rating reductions by at least one or more rating
agencies. Subsequent to the reporting period, AMBAC, MBIA and SYNCORA
experienced further rating reductions while FSA received its first rating
reduction by at least one rating agency. At the time this report was prepared,
at least one rating agency has placed each of these insurers on "negative
outlook" or "negative credit watch," which may presage one or more rating
reductions for such insurer or insurers in the future. As concern increased
about the balance sheets of these insurers, prices on bonds insured by these
companies - especially those bonds with weaker underlying credits - declined,
detracting from the Funds' performance. By the end of this period, most insured
bonds were being valued
8
according to their fundamentals as if they were uninsured. On the whole, the
holdings of all of our Funds continued to be well diversified not only between
insured and uninsured bonds, but also within the insured bond category. It is
important to note that municipal bonds historically have had a very low rate of
default.
RECENT DEVELOPMENTS IN THE AUCTION RATE PREFERRED SECURITIES MARKETS
Beginning in February 2008, more shares for sale were submitted in the regularly
scheduled auctions for the auction rate preferred shares issued by these Funds
than there were offers to buy. This meant that these auctions "failed to clear"
and that many or all auction rate preferred shareholders who wanted to sell
their shares in these auctions were unable to do so. This decline in liquidity
in auction rate preferred shares did not lower the credit quality of these
shares, and auction rate preferred shareholders unable to sell their shares
received distributions at the "maximum rate" applicable to failed auctions as
calculated in accordance with the pre-established terms of the auction rate
preferred shares. At the time this report was prepared, the Funds'managers could
not predict when future auctions might succeed in attracting sufficient buyers
for the shares offered, if ever. The Funds' managers are working diligently to
refund the auction preferred shares, and have made progress in these efforts,
but at present there is no assurance that these efforts will succeed. These
developments generally do not affect the management or investment policies of
these Funds. However, one implication of these auction failures for common
shareholders is that the Funds'cost of leverage will likely be higher, at least
temporarily, than it otherwise would have been had the auctions continued to be
successful. As a result, the Funds' future common share earnings may be lower
than they otherwise would have been.
On June 11, 2008, Nuveen announced the Fund Board's approval of plans to use
tender option bonds (TOBs), also known as floating rate securities, to refinance
a portion of the municipal Funds' outstanding auction rate preferred shares, for
which auctions have been failing for several months. This plan included an
initial phase of approximately $1 billion in forty-one Funds. As of October 31,
2008, none of the Funds included in this shareholder report issued par
redemption notices for their auction rate preferred shares.
On August 7, 2008, four Nuveen municipal Funds (none of which are included in
this shareholder report) issued par redemption notices for all outstanding
shares of their auction rate preferred shares totaling $569.9 million. These
redemptions were achieved through the issuance of variable rate demand preferred
shares (VRDP) in conjunction with the proceeds from the creation of TOBs.

Common Share
Dividend and Share Price
INFORMATION
During the six-month period ended October 31, 2008, there was one dividend
increase in NQF, NUF and NWF. In NFL, the cost of leverage-related borrowing
remained higher than in the other Funds. This impacted the incremental income
available for dividends and led to one dividend cut in this Fund, effective
October 2008.
All of the Funds in this report seek to pay stable dividends at rates that
reflect each Fund's past results and projected future performance. During
certain periods, each Fund may pay dividends at a rate that may be more or less
than the amount of net investment income actually earned by the Fund during the
period. If a Fund has cumulatively earned more than it has paid in dividends, it
holds the excess in reserve as undistributed net investment income (UNII) as
part of the Fund's NAV. Conversely, if a Fund has cumulatively paid dividends in
excess of its earnings, the excess constitutes negative UNII that is likewise
reflected in the Fund's NAV. Each Fund will, over time, pay all of its net
investment income as dividends to shareholders. As of October 31, 2008, NQF had
a positive UNII balance while NUF, NFL and NWF had negative UNII balances for
financial statement purposes. All four Funds had positive UNII balances, based
upon our best estimate, for tax purposes.
The Funds' Board of Trustees approved an open-market share repurchase program on
July 10, 2007, for NQF, NUF and NFL and on July 30, 2008, for NWF under which
each Fund may repurchase up to 10% of its common shares. As of October 31, 2008,
NQF, NUF and NFL had cumulatively repurchased 218,700, 147,700 and 174,500
common shares, respectively, representing approximately 1.3%, 1.0% and 1.2% of
each Fund's total common shares outstanding, respectively.
As of October 31, 2008, the Funds' common share prices were trading at discounts
to their common share NAVs as shown in the accompanying chart:
10/31/08 Six-Month Average
Discount Discount
NQF -20.10% - 13.82%
NUF -19.47% - 13.00%

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
1. GENERAL INFORMATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The Florida funds covered in this report and their corresponding Common share
stock exchange symbols are Nuveen Florida Investment Quality Municipal Fund
(NQF), Nuveen Florida Quality Income Municipal Fund (NUF), Nuveen Insured
Florida Premium Income Municipal Fund (NFL) and Nuveen Insured Florida Tax-Free
Advantage Municipal Fund (NWF) (collectively, the "Funds"). Common shares of
Florida Investment Quality (NQF), Florida Quality Income (NUF) and Insured
Florida Premium Income (NFL) are traded on the New York Stock Exchange while
Common shares of Insured Florida Tax-Free Advantage (NWF) 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.
Each Fund seeks to provide current income exempt from regular federal income
tax, and in the case of Insured Florida Tax-Free Advantage (NWF) 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 Florida or certain U.S. territories.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the
Funds in the preparation of their financial statements in accordance with U.S.
generally accepted accounting principles.
Investment Valuation
The prices of municipal bonds in each Fund's investment portfolio are provided
by a pricing service approved by the Fund's Board of Trustees. When market price
quotes are not readily available (which is usually the case for municipal
securities), the pricing service may establish fair 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. Prices of
forward swap contracts are also provided by an independent pricing service
approved by each Fund's Board of Trustees. Futures contracts are valued using
the closing settlement price, or in the absence of such a price, at the mean of
the bid and asked prices. If the pricing service is unable to supply a price for
an investment or derivative instrument, each Fund may use market quotes provided
by major broker/dealers in such investments. If it is determined that the market
price for an investment or derivative instrument is unavailable or
inappropriate, the Board of Trustees of the Funds, or its designee, may
establish fair value in accordance with procedures established in good faith by
the Board of Trustees. 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 October 31, 2008, there
were no such outstanding purchase commitments in any of the 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. Furthermore,
each Fund intends to satisfy conditions which will enable interest from
municipal securities, which is exempt from regular federal income tax, and in
the case of Insured Florida Tax-Free Advantage (NWF) the alternative minimum tax
applicable to individuals, to retain such tax-exempt status when distributed to
shareholders of the Funds. The investment policies of Insured Florida Tax-Free
Advantage (NWF) permit the Fund to invest in a limited amount of out-of-state
securities. Although the Fund may
40
pursue this strategy from time to time, this strategy will not impact the
tax-exempt status of the Fund's shares or of its distributions to its
shareholders. Net realized capital gains and ordinary income distributions paid
by the Funds are subject to federal taxation.
Effective October 31, 2007, the Funds adopted Financial Accounting Standards
Board (FASB) Interpretation No. 48 "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes"
(FIN 48). FIN 48 provides guidance for how uncertain tax positions should be
recognized, measured, presented and disclosed in the financial statements. FIN
48 requires the affirmative evaluation of tax positions taken or expected to be
taken in the course of preparing the Funds' tax returns to determine whether it
is "more-likely-than-not" (i.e., a greater than 50-percent likelihood) of being
sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions not deemed to meet the
more-likely-than-not threshold may result in a tax expense in the current year.
Implementation of FIN 48 required management of the Funds to analyze all open
tax years, as defined by the statute of limitations, for all major
jurisdictions, which includes federal and certain states. 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). The Funds have
no examinations in progress.
For all open tax years and all major taxing jurisdictions through the end of the
reporting period, management of the Funds has reviewed all tax positions taken
or expected to be taken in the preparation of the Funds' tax returns and
concluded the adoption of FIN 48 resulted in no impact to the Funds' net assets
or results of operations as of and during the the six months ended October 31,
2008.
The Funds are also not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably
possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly
change in the next twelve months.
Dividends and Distributions to Common Shareholders
Dividends from tax-exempt net investment income are declared monthly. Net
realized capital gains and/or market discount from investment transactions, if
any, are distributed to shareholders at least annually. Furthermore, capital
gains are distributed only to the extent they exceed available capital loss
carryforwards.
Distributions to Common shareholders of tax-exempt net investment income, net
realized capital gains and/or market discount, if any, are recorded on the
ex-dividend date. The amount and timing of distributions are determined in
accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from U.S.
generally accepted accounting principles.
Preferred Shares
The Funds have issued and outstanding Preferred shares, $25,000 stated value per
share, as a means of effecting financial leverage. Each Fund's Preferred shares
are issued in one or more Series. The dividend rate paid by the Funds on each
Series is determined every seven days, pursuant to a dutch auction process
overseen by the auction agent, and is payable at the end of each rate period. As
of October 31, 2008, the number of Preferred shares outstanding, by Series and
in total, for each Fund is as follows:

Beginning in February 2008, more shares for sale were submitted in the regularly
scheduled auctions for the Preferred shares issued by the Funds than there were
offers to buy. This meant that these auctions "failed to clear," and that many
Preferred shareholders who wanted to sell their shares in these auctions were
unable to do so. Preferred shareholders unable to sell their shares received
distributions at the "maximum rate" applicable to failed auctions as calculated
in accordance with the pre-established terms of the Preferred shares.
These developments generally do not affect the management or investment policies
of the Funds. However, one implication of these auction failures for Common
shareholders is that the Funds' cost of leverage will likely be higher, at least
temporarily, than it otherwise would have been had the auctions continued to be
successful. As a result, the Funds' future Common share earnings may be lower
than they otherwise would have been.

Notes to
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) (Unaudited)
On June 11, 2008, Nuveen Investments, Inc. ("Nuveen") announced the Fund Board's
approval of plans to use tender option bonds (TOBs), also known as "floaters" or
floating rate obligations, to refinance a portion of the municipal funds'
outstanding Preferred shares, whose auctions have been failing for several
months. The plan included an initial phase of approximately $1 billion in
forty-one funds. During the six months ended October 31, 2008, the Funds did not
redeemed any of their outstanding Preferred shares,
Insurance
Under normal circumstances, Insured Florida Premium Income (NFL) and Insured
Florida Tax-Free Advantage (NWF) will invest at least 80% of their net assets
(including net assets attributable to Preferred shares) in municipal securities
that are covered by insurance guaranteeing the timely payment of principal and
interest. For purposes of this 80% test, insurers must have a claims paying
ability rated at least "A" at the time of purchase by at least one independent
rating agency. In addition, each Fund will invest at least 80% of its net assets
(including net assets attributable to Preferred shares) in municipal securities
that are rated at least "AA" at the time of purchase (based on the higher of the
rating of the insurer, if any, or the underlying security) by at least one
independent rating agency, or are unrated but judged to be of similar credit
quality by Nuveen Asset Management (the "Adviser"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of
Nuveen, or municipal bonds backed by an escrow or trust account containing
sufficient U.S. government or U.S. government agency securities or U.S.
Treasury-issued State and Local Government Series securities to ensure timely
payment of principal and interest. Each Fund may also invest up to 20% of its
net assets (including net assets attributable to Preferred shares) in municipal
securities rated below "AA" (based on the higher rating of the insurer, if any,
or the underlying bond) or are unrated but judged to be of comparable quality by
the Adviser.
Each insured municipal security is covered by Original Issue Insurance,
Secondary Market Insurance or Portfolio Insurance. Such insurance does not
guarantee the market value of the municipal securities or the value of the
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, in contrast, 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.
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
42
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 an "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 an
"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 included as a component of "Interest expense on floating rate
obligations" on the Statement of Operations.
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.
During the six months ended October 31, 2008, Florida Investment Quality (NQF),
Florida Quality Income (NUF) and Insured Florida Premium Income (NFL) invested
in externally deposited inverse floaters and/or self-deposited inverse floaters.
Insured Florida Tax-Free Advantage (NWF) did not invest in any such instruments
during the the six months ended October 31, 2008.
At October 31, 2008, the Funds were not invested in any externally-deposited
Recourse Trusts.

Forward Swap Transactions
Each Fund is authorized to invest in forward interest rate swap transactions.
Each Fund's use of forward interest rate swap transactions is intended to help
the Fund manage its overall interest rate sensitivity, either shorter or longer,
generally to more closely align the Fund's interest rate sensitivity with that
of the broader municipal market. Forward interest rate swap transactions involve
each Fund's agreement with a counterparty to pay, in the future, a fixed or
variable rate payment in exchange for the counterparty paying the Fund a
variable or fixed rate payment, the accruals for which would begin at a
specified date in the future (the "effective date"). The amount of the payment
obligation is based on the notional amount of the forward swap contract and the
termination date of the swap (which is akin to a bond's maturity). The value of
the Fund's swap commitment would increase or decrease based primarily on the
extent to which long-term interest rates for bonds having a maturity of the
swap's termination date increases or decreases. The Funds may terminate a swap
contract prior to the effective date, at which point a realized gain or loss is
recognized. When a forward swap is terminated, it ordinarily does not involve
the delivery of securities or other underlying
43
Notes to
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) (Unaudited)
assets or principal, but rather is settled in cash on a net basis. Each Fund
intends, but is not obligated, to terminate its forward swaps before the
effective date. Accordingly, the risk of loss with respect to the swap
counterparty on such transactions is limited to the credit risk associated with
a counterparty failing to honor its commitment to pay any realized gain to the
Fund upon termination. To reduce such credit risk, all counterparties are
required to pledge collateral daily (based on the daily valuation of each swap)
on behalf of each Fund with a value approximately equal to the amount of any
unrealized gain above a pre-determined threshold. Reciprocally, when any of the
Funds have an unrealized loss on a swap contract, the Funds have instructed the
custodian to pledge assets of the Funds as collateral with a value approximately
equal to the amount of the unrealized loss above a pre-determined threshold.
Collateral pledges are monitored and subsequently adjusted if and when the swap
valuations fluctuate, either up or down, by at least the predetermined threshold
amount. Florida Investment Quality (NQF), Insured Florida Premium Income (NFL)
and Insured Florida Tax-Free Advantage (NWF) invested in forward interest rate
swap transactions during the six months ended October 31, 2008.
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. Insured Florida Premium Income (NFL) and Insured Florida Tax Free
Advantage (NWF) invested in futures contracts during the six months ended
October 31, 2008.
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.
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 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.
44
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the
date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and
decreases in net assets applicable to Common shares from operations during the
reporting period. Actual results may differ from those estimates.
2. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
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 October
31, 2008:

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 investment
transactions and the treatment of investments in inverse floating rate
transactions subject to SFAS No. 140. 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.

6. MANAGEMENT FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
Each Fund's management fee is separated into two components - a complex-level
component, based on the aggregate amount of all fund assets managed by the
Adviser, and a specific fund-level component, based only on the amount of assets
within each individual Fund. This pricing structure enables Nuveen fund
shareholders to benefit from growth in the assets within each individual fund as
well as from growth in the amount of complex-wide assets managed by the Adviser.
47
Notes to
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) (Unaudited)
The annual fund-level fee, payable monthly, for each Fund is based upon the
average daily net assets (including net assets attributable to Preferred shares)
of each Fund as follows:
FLORIDA INVESTMENT QUALITY (NQF)
AVERAGE DAILY NET ASSETS FLORIDA QUALITY INCOME (NUF)
(INCLUDING NET ASSETS INSURED FLORIDA PREMIUM INCOME (NFL)

For the next $500 million .4125
For the next $1 billion .4000
For net assets over $2 billion .3750
================================================================================
|
The annual complex-level fee, payable monthly, which is additive to the
fund-level fee, for all Nuveen sponsored funds in the U.S., is based on the
aggregate amount of total fund assets managed as stated in the following table.
As of October 31, 2008, the complex-level fee rate was .1998%.
The complex-level fee schedule is as follows:
COMPLEX-LEVEL ASSET BREAKPOINT LEVEL (1) EFFECTIVE RATE AT BREAKPOINT LEVEL
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
$55 billion .2000%
$56 billion .1996
$57 billion .1989

$91 billion .1691
$125 billion .1599
$200 billion .1505
$250 billion .1469
$300 billion .1445
================================================================================
|
(1) The complex-level component of the management fee for the funds is
calculated based upon the aggregate daily net assets of all Nuveen funds,
with such daily net assets to include assets attributable to preferred
stock issued by or borrowings by such funds but to exclude assets
attributable to investments in other Nuveen funds.
48
The management fee compensates the Adviser for overall investment advisory and
administrative services and general office facilities. The Funds pay no
compensation directly to those of its Trustees who are affiliated with the
Adviser or to its Officers, all of whom receive remuneration for their services
to the Funds from the Adviser or its affiliates. The Board of Trustees has
adopted a deferred compensation plan for independent Trustees that enables
Trustees to elect to defer receipt of all or a portion of the annual
compensation they are entitled to receive from certain Nuveen advised funds.
Under the plan, deferred amounts are treated as though equal dollar amounts had
been invested in shares of select Nuveen advised funds.
For the first eight years of Insured Florida Tax-Free Advantage's (NWF)
operations, the Adviser has agreed to reimburse the Fund, as a percentage of
average daily net assets (including net assets attributable to Preferred
shares), for fees and expenses in the amounts and for the time periods set forth
below:

The Adviser has not agreed to reimburse Insured Florida Tax-Free Advantage (NWF)
for any portion of its fees and expenses beyond November 30, 2010.
7. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENT
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.

Annual Investment
Management Agreement
APPROVAL PROCESS
The Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), provides, in
substance, that each investment advisory agreement between a fund and its
investment adviser will continue in effect from year to year only if its
continuance is approved at least annually by the fund's board members, including
by a vote of a majority of the board members who are not parties to the advisory
agreement or "interested persons" of any parties (the "Independent Board
Members"), cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of considering
such approval. In connection with such approvals, the fund's board members must
request and evaluate, and the investment adviser is required to furnish, such
information as may be reasonably necessary to evaluate the terms of the advisory
agreement. Accordingly, at a meeting held on May 28-29, 2008 (the "May
Meeting"), the Boards of Trustees or Directors (as the case may be)(each, a
"Board" and each Trustee or Director, a "Board Member") of the Funds, including
a majority of the Independent Board Members, considered and approved the
continuation of the advisory agreement (each, an "Advisory Agreement") between
each Fund and Nuveen Asset Management ("NAM") for an additional one-year period.
In preparation for their considerations at the May Meeting, the Board also held
a separate meeting on April 23, 2008 (the "April Meeting"). Accordingly, the
factors considered and determinations made regarding the renewals by the
Independent Board Members include those made at the April Meeting.
In addition, in evaluating the Advisory Agreements, as described in further
detail below, the Independent Board Members reviewed a broad range of
information relating to the Funds and NAM, including absolute performance, fee
and expense information for the Funds as well as comparative performance, fee
and expense information for a comparable peer group of funds, the performance
information of recognized benchmarks (as applicable), the profitability of
Nuveen for its advisory activities (which includes its wholly owned
subsidiaries), and other information regarding the organization, personnel, and
services provided by NAM. The Independent Board Members also met quarterly as
well as at other times as the need arose during the year and took into account
the information provided at such meetings and the knowledge gained therefrom.
Prior to approving the renewal of the Advisory Agreements, the Independent Board
Members reviewed the foregoing information with their independent legal counsel
and with management, reviewed materials from independent legal counsel
describing applicable law and their duties in reviewing advisory contracts, and
met with independent legal counsel in private sessions without management
present. The Independent Board Members considered the legal advice provided by
independent legal counsel and relied upon their knowledge of NAM, its services
and the Funds resulting from their meetings and other interactions throughout
the year and their own business judgment in determining the factors to be
considered in evaluating the Advisory Agreements. Each Board Member may have
accorded different weight to the various factors in reaching his or her
conclusions with respect to a Fund's Advisory Agreement. The Independent Board
Members did not identify any single factor as all-important or controlling. The
Independent Board Members' considerations were instead based on a comprehensive
consideration of all the information presented. The principal factors considered
by the Board and its conclusions are described below.
54
A. NATURE, EXTENT AND QUALITY OF SERVICES
In considering renewal of the Advisory Agreements, the Independent Board Members
considered the nature, extent and quality of NAM's services, including advisory
services and administrative services. The Independent Board Members reviewed
materials outlining, among other things, NAM's organization and business; the
types of services that NAM or its affiliates provide and are expected to provide
to the Funds; the performance record of the applicable Fund (as described in
further detail below); and any initiatives Nuveen had taken for the applicable
fund product line. With respect to personnel, the Independent Board Members
evaluated the background, experience and track record of NAM's investment
personnel. In this regard, the Independent Board Members considered the
additional investment in personnel to support Nuveen fund advisory activities,
including in operations, product management and marketing as well as related
fund support functions, including sales, executive, finance, human resources and
information technology. The Independent Board Members also reviewed information
regarding portfolio manager compensation arrangements to evaluate NAM's ability
to attract and retain high quality investment personnel.
In evaluating the services of NAM, the Independent Board Members also considered
NAM's ability to supervise the Funds' other service providers and given the
importance of compliance, NAM's compliance program. Among other things, the
Independent Board Members considered the report of the chief compliance officer
regarding the Funds' compliance policies and procedures.
In addition to advisory services, the Independent Board Members considered the
quality of administrative services provided by NAM and its affiliates including
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 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. With respect to closed-end funds that utilize
leverage through the issuance of auction rate preferred securities ("ARPS"), the
Board has recognized the unprecedented market conditions in the auction rate
market industry with the failure of the auction process. The Independent Board
Members noted Nuveen's efforts and the resources and personnel employed to
analyze the situation, explore potential alternatives and develop and implement
solutions that serve the interests of the affected funds and all of their
respective shareholders. The Independent Board Members further noted Nuveen's
commitment and efforts to keep investors and financial advisers informed as to
its progress in addressing the ARPS situation through, among other things,
conference calls, press releases, and information posted on its website as well
as its refinancing activities. The Independent Board Members also noted Nuveen's
continued support for holders of preferred shares of its closed-end funds by,
among other things, seeking distribution for preferred shares with new market
participants, managing relations with remarketing agents and the broker
community, maintaining the leverage and risk management of leverage and
maintaining systems necessary to test compliance with rating agency criteria.
Based on their review, the Independent Board Members found that, overall, the
nature, extent and quality of services provided (and expected to be provided) to
the respective Funds under the Advisory Agreements were satisfactory.
55
ANNUAL INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT
APPROVAL PROCESS (continued)
B. THE INVESTMENT PERFORMANCE OF THE FUNDS AND NAM
The Board considered the investment performance of each Fund, including the
Fund's historic performance as well as its performance compared to funds with
similar investment objectives (the "Performance Peer Group") based on data
provided by an independent third party (as described below). The Independent
Board Members also reviewed portfolio level performance (which does not reflect
fund level fees, expenses and leverage), as described in further detail below.
In evaluating the performance information, the Board considered whether the Fund
has operated within its investment objectives and parameters and the impact that
the investment mandates may have had on performance. In addition, in comparing a
Fund's performance with that of its Performance Peer Group, the Independent
Board Members took into account that the closest Performance Peer Group in
certain instances may not adequately reflect the respective fund's investment
objectives and strategies thereby hindering a meaningful comparison of the
fund's performance with that of the Performance Peer Group.
The Independent Board Members also recognized that certain funds lack comparable
peers in which case their performance is measured against a more general
municipal category for various states. The closed-end municipal funds that do
not have corresponding state-specific Performance Peer Groups are from states
other than New York, California, Florida, New Jersey, Michigan, and
Pennsylvania.
The Independent Board Members reviewed performance information including, among
other things, total return information compared with the Fund's Performance Peer
Group and recognized benchmarks for the one-, three-, and five-year periods (as
applicable) ending December 31, 2007 and with the Performance Peer Group for the
quarter and same yearly periods ending March 31, 2008 (as applicable). The
Independent Board Members also reviewed the Fund's portfolio level performance
(which does not reflect fund level fees and expenses (and leverage for
closed-end funds)) compared to recognized benchmarks for the one-, three-, and
five-year periods ending December 31, 2007 (as applicable). The analysis was
used to assess the efficacy of investment decisions against appropriate measures
of risk and total return, within specific market segments. This information
supplemented the Fund performance information provided to the Board at each of
its quarterly meetings. Based on their review, the Independent Board Members
determined that each Fund's investment performance over time had been
satisfactory.
C. FEES, EXPENSES AND PROFITABILITY
1. FEES AND EXPENSES
The Board evaluated the management fees and expenses of each Fund
reviewing, among other things, such Fund's gross management fees (which
take into account breakpoints), net management fees (which take into
account fee waivers or reimbursements) and total expense ratios (before and
after expense reimbursements and/or waivers) in absolute terms as well as
compared to the gross management fees, net management fees (after waivers
and/or reimbursements) and total expense ratios (before and after waivers)
of a comparable universe of unaffiliated funds based on data provided by an
independent data provider (the "Peer Universe") and/or a more focused
subset of funds therein (the "Peer Group"). The Independent Board Members
further reviewed data regarding the construction of Peer Groups as well as
the methods of measurement for the fee and expense analysis and the
performance analysis. In reviewing the comparisons of fee and expense
information, the Independent Board Members took into account that in
certain instances various factors such as the size of the Fund relative to
peers, the size and particular composition of the Peer Group, the
investment objectives of the peers, expense anomalies, and the timing of
information used may impact the comparative data, thereby limiting the
ability to make a meaningful comparison. The Independent Board Members also
considered, among other things, the differences in the use of leverage and
the differences in the use of insurance as well as the states reflected in
a respective Peer Group for the state municipal funds (such as the use of a
56
general "other states" category for closed-end state funds (other than New
York and California)). In reviewing the fee schedule for a Fund, the
Independent Board Members also considered the fund-level and complex-wide
breakpoint schedules (described in further detail below) and any fee
waivers and reimbursements provided by Nuveen (applicable, in particular,
for certain closed-end funds launched since 1999). Based on their review of
the fee and expense information provided, the Independent Board Members
determined that each Fund's management fees and net total expense ratio
were reasonable in light of the nature, extent and quality of services
provided to the Fund.
2. COMPARISONS WITH THE FEES OF OTHER CLIENTS
The Independent Board Members further reviewed information regarding the
nature of services and fee rates offered by NAM to other clients. Such
other clients include NAM's municipal separately managed accounts. In
evaluating the comparisons of fees, the Independent Board Members noted
that the fee rates charged to the Funds and 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 Funds. Accordingly, the Independent Board
Members considered the differences in the product types, including, but not
limited to, the services provided, the structure and operations, product
distribution and costs thereof, portfolio investment policies, investor
profiles, account sizes and regulatory requirements. The Independent Board
Members noted, in particular, that the range of services provided to the
Funds (as discussed above) is much more extensive than that provided to
separately managed accounts. Given the inherent differences in the
products, particularly the extensive services provided to the Funds, the
Independent Board Members believe such facts justify the different levels
of fees.
3. PROFITABILITY OF NUVEEN
In conjunction with its review of fees, the Independent Board Members also
considered the profitability of Nuveen for its advisory activities (which
incorporated Nuveen's wholly-owned affiliated sub-advisers) and its
financial condition. The Independent Board Members reviewed the revenues
and expenses of Nuveen's advisory activities for the last two years and the
allocation methodology used in preparing the profitability data. The
Independent Board Members noted this information supplemented the
profitability information requested and received during the year to help
keep them apprised of developments affecting profitability (such as changes
in fee waivers and expense reimbursement commitments). In this regard, the
Independent Board Members noted that they had also appointed an Independent
Board Member as a point person to review and keep them apprised of changes
to the profitability analysis and/or methodologies during the year. The
Independent Board Members considered 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 recognized the
subjective nature of determining profitability which may be affected by
numerous factors including the allocation of expenses. Further, the
Independent Board Members 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.
Based on its review, the Independent Board Members concluded that Nuveen's level
of profitability for its advisory activities was reasonable in light of the
services provided.
57
ANNUAL INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT
APPROVAL PROCESS (continued)
In evaluating the reasonableness of the compensation, the Independent Board
Members also considered other amounts paid to NAM by the Funds as well as any
indirect benefits (such as soft dollar arrangements, if any) NAM and its
affiliates receive, or are expected to receive, that are directly attributable
to the management of the Funds, if any. See Section E below for additional
information on indirect benefits NAM may receive as a result of its relationship
with the Funds. Based on their review of the overall fee arrangements of each
Fund, the Independent Board Members determined that the advisory fees and
expenses of the respective 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 a fund being spread over a larger
asset base. The Independent Board Members therefore considered whether the Funds
have appropriately benefited from any economies of scale and whether there is
potential realization of any further 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, particularly on a
fund-by-fund basis. Notwithstanding the foregoing, one method to help ensure the
shareholders share in these benefits is to include breakpoints in the advisory
fee schedule. Accordingly, the Independent Board Members reviewed and considered
the fund-level breakpoints in the advisory fee schedules that reduce advisory
fees. In this regard, given that the Funds are closed-end funds, the Independent
Board Members recognized that although the Funds may from time to time make
additional share offerings, the growth in their assets will occur primarily
through appreciation of each Fund's investment portfolio.
In addition to fund-level advisory fee breakpoints, the Board also considered
the Funds' complex-wide fee arrangement. Pursuant to the complex-wide fee
arrangement, the fees of the funds in the Nuveen complex, including the Funds,
are reduced as the assets in the fund complex reach certain levels. In
evaluating the complex-wide fee arrangement, the Independent Board Members
recognized that the complex-wide fee schedule was recently revised in 2007 to
provide for additional fee savings to shareholders and considered the amended
schedule. The Independent Board Members further 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.
E. INDIRECT BENEFITS
In evaluating fees, the Independent Board Members received and considered
information regarding potential "fall out" or ancillary benefits NAM or its
affiliates may receive as a result of its relationship with each Fund. In this
regard, the Independent Board Members considered 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.
58
In addition to the above, the Independent Board Members considered whether NAM
received any benefits from soft dollar arrangements whereby a portion of the
commissions paid by a Fund for brokerage may be used to acquire research that
may be useful to NAM in managing the assets of the Funds 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 Funds were
reasonable and within acceptable parameters.
F. OTHER CONSIDERATIONS
The Independent Board Members did not identify any single factor discussed
previously as all-important or controlling. The Board Members, including the
Independent Board Members, unanimously concluded that the terms of the Advisory
Agreements are fair and reasonable, that NAM's fees are reasonable in light of
the services provided to each Fund and that the Advisory Agreements be renewed.

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 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.
60
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
[] 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.
[] 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.
[] 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.
[] 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.
[] LEVERAGE-ADJUSTED DURATION: Duration is a measure of the expected period
over which a bond's principal and interest will be paid, and consequently
is a measure of the sensitivity of a bond's or bond Fund's value to changes
when market interest rates change. Generally, the longer a bond's or Fund's
duration, the more the price of the bond or Fund will change as interest
rates change. Leverage-adjusted duration takes into account the leveraging
process for a Fund and therefore is longer than the duration of the Fund's
portfolio of bonds.
[] MARKET YIELD (ALSO KNOWN AS DIVIDEND YIELD OR CURRENT YIELD): An
investment's current annualized dividend divided by its current market
price.
[] NET ASSET VALUE (NAV): A Fund's NAV per common share is calculated by
subtracting the liabilities of the Fund (including any Preferred shares
issued in order to leverage the Fund) from its total assets and then
dividing the remainder by the number of common shares outstanding. Fund
NAVs are calculated at the end of each business day.
[] 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.
[] 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.
