To Nuveen Fund Shareholders:

We recently distributed proxy materials regarding the Annual Meeting of Shareholders to be held on Tuesday, November 18, 2008. Due to a programming error, for joint and certain other accounts, the proxy card that was originally presented to you may not have contained all of the names of the individuals or entities listed on your account.

Please accept our apologies for this omission; a corrected proxy card has been included with this mailing. If you have already submitted a proxy card, it is necessary for you to complete, sign and date the new proxy card. Please note that if your shares are held jointly, each holder must sign the proxy card in order for your vote to be counted at the Annual Meeting.

If you need an additional copy of the Proxy Statement for the Annual Meeting or your Fund’s Annual Report, please contact/call (866) 864-0471.
