CHICAGO--(Business Wire)--
Nuveen Investments, a leading global provider of investment
services to institutions and high-net-worth investors, today declared
regular monthly distributions for 106 closed-end funds and portfolios.
These funds represent a broad range of tax-exempt, taxable fixed and
floating rate income investment strategies for investors seeking to
build sophisticated and diversified long-term investment portfolios
for cash flow. The funds' monthly distributions are declared below.

   Monthly distributions from Nuveen's municipal closed-end funds and
portfolios are generally exempt from regular Federal income taxes, and
monthly distributions of single-state municipal funds and portfolios
are also exempt from state and, in some cases, local income taxes for
in-state residents. Unless otherwise stated in the funds' objectives,
monthly distributions of the municipal funds and portfolios may be
subject to the Federal Alternative Minimum Tax for some shareholders.

   All of Nuveen's funds seek to pay stable distributions at rates
that reflect each fund's past results and projected future
performance. During certain periods, each fund may pay distributions
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
cumulatively earned more than it has paid in distributions, it holds
the excess in reserve as undistributed net investment income (UNII) as
part of the fund's net asset value (NAV). Conversely, if a fund has
cumulatively paid distributions 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 distributions to shareholders. The funds' positive or negative UNII
balances are disclosed from time to time in their periodic shareholder
reports, and are also on www.nuveen.com/cef

   Distributions from Nuveen's taxable closed-end funds are generally
subject to Federal income taxes. Additionally, smaller portions of the
monthly distribution for the Nuveen Quality Preferred Income Fund
(JTP), Nuveen Quality Preferred Income Fund 2 (JPS) and Nuveen Quality
Preferred Income Fund 3 (JHP) may later be characterized as capital
gains and/or a return of capital depending on the character of
distributions reported to these funds after year-end by real estate
investment trusts (REITs) whose securities are held by the fund.

   Beginning with the distribution declared September 2, payable
October 1, the Nuveen Tax-Advantaged Floating Rate Fund (JFP) will
implement a managed distribution program. Under such a program, each
distribution may be composed of one or more of the following
components: net investment income, realized capital gains, and/or a
return of capital. Estimates of the proportions each source represents
will be posted on www.nuveen.com/cef and sent to shareholders with
each regular distribution. For more information on this change, please
see the August 12, 2008 JFP press release and accompanying Q&A at
www.nuveen.com/cef.

   The following dates apply to today's distribution declarations:
