Fund Performance, Leverage and Holdings Summaries

The Fund Performance, Leverage and Holding Summaries for each Fund are shown below within this section of the report.

Fund Performance

Performance data shown represents past performance and does not predict or guarantee 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. Returns at NAV are net of Fund expenses, and assume reinvestment of distributions. Comparative index return information is provided for the Fund’s shares at NAV only. Indexes are not available for direct investment.

Total returns for a period of less than one year are not annualized (i.e. cumulative returns). Since inception returns are shown for share classes that have less
than 10-years of performance. For performance, current to the most recent month-end visit Nuveen.com or call (800) 257-8787.
