Chairman's
Letter to Shareholders
[PHOTO OF ROBERT P. BREMNER]
DEAR SHAREHOLDER,
The financial markets in which your Fund operates continue to reflect the larger
economic crosscurrents. The illiquidity that infected global credit markets over
the last year continues to recede but there is concern about the impact of a
reduction in official liquidity support programs. The major institutions that
are the linchpin of the international financial system have strengthened their
capital structures, but many still struggle with losses in their various
portfolios. Global trends include increasing trade and concern about the ability
of the U.S. government to address its substantial budgetary deficits.
While the fixed-income and equity markets have recovered from the lows recorded
in the first quarter of 2009, identifying those developments that will define
the future is never easy, and rarely is it more difficult than at present. A
fundamental component of a successful investment program is a commitment to
remain focused on long-term investment goals even during periods of heightened
market uncertainty. Another component is to re-evaluate investment disciplines
and tactics and to confirm their validity following periods of extreme
volatility and market dislocation, such as we have recently experienced. Your
Board carried out an intensive review of investment performance with these
objectives in mind during April and May of 2009 as part of the annual management
contract renewal process. I encourage you to read the description of this
process in the Annual Investment Management Agreement Approval Process section
of this report. Confirming the appropriateness of a long term investment
strategy is as important for our shareholders as it is for our professional
investment managers. For that reason, I again encourage you to remain in
communication with your financial consultant on this subject.
On behalf of 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

Portfolio Managers' Comments
Nuveen Municipal Value Fund, Inc. (NUV)
Nuveen Municipal Value Fund 2 (NUW)
Nuveen Municipal Income Fund, Inc. (NMI)
Nuveen Enhanced Municipal Value Fund (NEV)
Portfolio managers Tom Spalding and John Wilhelm discuss U.S. economic and
municipal market conditions, key investment strategies, and the performance of
these four Funds. With 33 years of investment experience at Nuveen, Tom has
managed NUV since its inception in 1987, adding portfolio management
responsibility for NUW upon its inception in February 2009. John, who came to
Nuveen in 2001 with 18 years of industry experience, served as co-portfolio
manager of NMI beginning in 2007 and assumed full portfolio management
responsibility for this Fund in March 2009. In September 2009, he also assumed
portfolio management responsibility for the newly introduced Nuveen Enhanced
Municipal Value Fund (NEV).
WHAT FACTORS AFFECTED THE U.S. ECONOMY AND MUNICIPAL MARKET DURING THE
TWELVE-MONTH REPORTING PERIOD ENDED OCTOBER 31, 2009?
During this reporting period, municipal bond prices generally rose as strong
cash flows into municipal bond funds combined with tighter supply of new
tax-exempt issuance to provide favorable supply and demand conditions. As the
period began, there continued to be considerable downward pressure on the
economy. In an effort to improve conditions, the Federal Reserve (Fed), lowered
the fed funds rate to a target range of zero to 0.25% in December 2008, the
lowest level on record. In February 2009, the federal government augmented its
efforts to boost the economy by passing a $787 billion stimulus package, which
joined the $700 billion financial industry rescue package it had passed in late
2008. In March 2009, the Fed announced that, in addition to maintaining the
current rate, it would buy $300 billion in long-term Treasury securities in an
effort to support private credit markets and up to an additional $750 billion in
agency mortgage-backed securities to bolster the credit and housing markets.
In recent months, the measures taken by the Fed and others to ease the economic
recession produced some incipient signs of improvement. In the third quarter of
2009, the U.S. gross domestic product (GDP), posted positive growth (2.8%
annualized) for the first time since the second quarter of 2008. Housing prices
also provided a bright spot between June and September 2009 by recording four
consecutive months of positive returns, the first following three years of
decline. At the same time, inflation remained

muted, as the Consumer Price Index (CPI), reflecting a 14% drop in energy
prices, fell 0.2% year-over-year as of October 2009. This marked the seventh
straight month that consumer prices dropped from their levels of a year earlier,
the longest such decline since 1954-1955. The core CPI (which excludes food and
energy) rose 1.7% over the year, within the Fed's unofficial objective of 2.0%
or lower for this measure. However, the economy continued to be stressed by
weakness in the labor markets. October 2009 marked the 22nd consecutive month of
net job losses, with a total of 7.3 million jobs lost since the recession began
in December 2007. This is the biggest decline since the Great Depression. The
national unemployment rate for October 2009 was 10.2%, a 26-year high, up from
6.6% in October 2008.
Municipal market conditions began to show general signs of improvement in
mid-December 2008 and municipal bonds continued to improve throughout most of
2009. This trend was bolstered by the reduced supply of tax-exempt municipal
debt in the marketplace, due in part to the introduction of the Build America
Bond program in April 2009. Build America Bonds are a new class of taxable
municipal debt created as part of the February 2009 economic stimulus package.
These bonds offer municipal issuers a federal subsidy equal to 35% of the
security's interest payments, and therefore provide issuers with an attractive
alternative to traditional tax-exempt debt. As of April 2009, taxable Build
America Bonds issuance totaled $48.5 billion, accounting for almost 20% of new
bonds issued in the municipal market during the period since their introduction.
Over the twelve months ended October 31, 2009, tax-exempt municipal bond
issuance nationwide totaled $404.5 billion, a drop of approximately 10% compared
with the twelve-month period ended October 31, 2008. As mentioned earlier,
demand for tax-exempt bonds was strong during the first ten months of 2009,
especially on the part of individual investors and broker/dealers. The
combination of lower tax-exempt supply and increased demand provided support for
municipal bond prices.
WHAT KEY STRATEGIES WERE USED TO MANAGE THESE FUNDS DURING THIS REPORTING
PERIOD?
During the majority of this twelve-month period, the tax-exempt municipal bond
market was characterized by strong demand, constrained supply of new tax-exempt
bonds and generally improving valuations.
In this environment, our trading activity continued to focus on finding relative
value by taking a bottom-up approach to discover undervalued sectors and
individual credits with the potential to perform well over the long term. In NUV
and NUW, we generally purchased investment-grade quality bonds offering longer
maturities and good call protection, taking advantage of opportunities to
purchase lower-rated bonds as we found attractive candidates. Many of the
additions to our portfolio were in the health-care sector, primarily bonds rated
AA, A or BBB. While the overall supply of new
Nuveen Investments 3
tax-exempt bonds declined, supply was more plentiful in the health care sector
because hospitals generally do not qualify for the Build America Bond program
and so must continue to issue bonds in the tax-exempt municipal market. In
addition, many hospitals were issuing fixed rate bonds during this period in
order to refinance and retire outstanding debt that had initially been issued as
variable rate debt. We completed the initial investment of NUW's assets in the
months that followed its February 2009 introduction. By period end, the Fund was
fully invested in a diversified portfolio of municipal bonds that we believe
positions the Fund well for the future.
In NMI, our focus was on adding to our holdings of credits rated A and BBB and,
to a lesser degree, non-rated and sub-investment grade bonds. These bonds, which
we purchased in both the primary and secondary markets, tended to have
maturities at the longer end of the yield curve, specifically 20 to 30 years.
From a sector perspective, we emphasized hospital and industrial development
revenue (IDR) bonds, both of which we believed to be significant areas of
opportunity.
Some of the cash for new purchases during this period was generated by maturing
or called bonds. In NMI, we also sold some holdings that we believed did not
have much capacity for further price appreciation, such as bonds that we
expected to be pre-refunded within the next twelve months and bonds that were
close to their call dates. While there was considerable issuance of Build
America Bonds over the last half of this period, these bonds do not represent
good investment opportunities for all these Funds because their interest
payments are considered taxable income.
In September 2009, we introduced the Nuveen Enhanced Municipal Value Fund (NEV),
which is designed to invest at least 80% of its assets in investment quality
municipal securities and may invest up to 20% of its managed assets (as defined
in its prospectus) in bonds rated below investment quality or judged to be of
comparable quality under normal circumstances. During the period between NEV's
inception and October 31, 2009, we worked on completing the Fund's initial
investment phase. By period end, NEV was approximately 85% invested. Our
purchases during this initial phase focused primarily on bonds that we believe
will achieve the portfolio's objectives of providing attractive monthly income
exempt from federal income taxes and attractive after-tax total returns over the
long term. This included bonds at the longer end of the maturity spectrum that
offered good call protection and diversification in terms of credit quality and
sector, such as general and limited tax obligation, health care and
single-family housing.
During this period, we added inverse floating rate securities(1) to NEV, so that
all four of these Funds were using inverse floaters as of October 31, 2009. We
employ inverse floaters as a form of leverage for a variety of reasons,
including duration management, income enhancement and total return enhancements.
Coming into this period, NMI also invested in additional types of derivative
instruments(2) designed to help lengthen its duration. These derivatives were
removed during the first part of reporting period.
(1) An inverse floating rate security, also known as an inverse floater, 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 report.
(2) 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.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
For the twelve months ended October 31, 2009, the total returns on net asset
value (NAV) for both NUV and NMI exceeded the returns of the Standard & Poor's
(S&P) National Municipal Bond Index and the average return for the Lipper
General and Insured Unleveraged Municipal Debt Funds Average. As noted in the
accompanying table, the return shown for NUW is a cumulative since inception
return. Six-month index returns were 5.96% for the S&P National Municipal Bond
Index and 8.08% for the Lipper average. In addition, NEV's return represents the
approximately one-month period between its inception and October 31, 2009. We
also should note that NEV, which was introduced in September 2009, was still in
its initial investment phase as of October 31, 2009, that is, it was not fully
invested for the entire period, which impacted its performance results.
Key management factors that influenced the Funds' returns during this period
included yield curve and duration positioning, credit exposure and sector
allocation.
During this period, yields on tax-exempt bonds generally declined and bond
prices rose, especially at the longer end of the municipal yield curve. As a
result, longer-term bonds generally outperformed credits with shorter
maturities. In general, the greater a Fund's exposure to the longer part of the
yield curve, the greater the positive impact on the Fund's return. Both NUV and
NUW benefited from being relatively heavily weighted in the longer part of the
curve.
As mentioned earlier, our duration strategies in NMI included using derivative
positions during the first part of this period to synthetically extend its
duration. These derivative positions performed well and had a positive impact on
NMI's total return performance.
* NUW's cumulative return represents the period from its inception on
February 25, 2009, through October 31, 2009.
** NEV's cumulative return represents the period from its inception on
September 25, 2009, through October 31, 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.

unleveraged, market value-weighted index designed to measure the
performance of the investment-grade U.S. municipal bond market. This index
does not reflect any initial or ongoing expenses and is not available for
direct investment.
(4) 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: 1-year, 8 funds; 5-years, 7 funds; and 10-years, 7
funds. Fund and Lipper returns assume reinvestment of dividends. You
cannot invest directly in a Lipper Average.

While yield curve positioning and duration played important roles in
performance, credit exposure was also a significant factor. As noted earlier,
demand for municipal bonds increased among both institutional and individual
investors during this period. This increase was driven by a variety of factors,
including concerns about potential tax increases, the need to rebalance
portfolio allocations and a growing appetite for additional risk. At the same
time, the supply of new tax-exempt municipal securities declined. As investors
bid up municipal bond prices, bonds rated BBB or lower and non-rated bonds
generally outperformed those rated AAA, and holdings of these bonds made
relative positive contributions to the Funds' performances.
Holdings that generally contributed to the Funds' performances included IDR,
housing and health care bonds. Education, water and sewer, transportation and
special tax bonds also outperformed the general municipal market during this
period, as did zero coupon bonds and credits backed by the 1998 master tobacco
settlement agreement. In NMI, sector allocation was the most significant
positive contributor to performance, helped by strong weightings in health care,
transportation (particularly tollroads) and IDRs. NUV and NUW also benefited
from their relatively heavy exposures to health care, transportation and water
and sewer bonds.
Pre-refunded bonds, which had been one of the top performing segments of the
municipal bond market over the past two years, performed especially poorly
during this period. This underperformance can be attributed primarily to these
bonds' shorter effective maturities and higher credit quality, as they are
usually backed by U.S. Treasury securities. Other market segments that detracted
from relative performance included resource recovery, leasing, and electric
utility bonds. These were the only three revenue sectors that failed to
outperform the overall municipal market during this period. Many general
obligation bonds also failed to keep pace with the overall municipal market.

Dividend and Share Price Information
During the twelve-month reporting period ended October 31, 2009, NMI had two
monthly dividend increases, while the dividend of NUV remained stable throughout
the period. NUW, which was introduced in February 2009, paid its initial monthly
dividend distribution in April 2009 and maintained a stable dividend through the
remainder of the reporting period. On November 2, 2009 (following the end of
this reporting period), NEV, which was introduced on September 25, 2009,
announced its initial monthly dividend distribution of $0.0760 per share,
payable on December 1, 2009.
Due to normal portfolio activity, shareholders of NUV received an ordinary
income distribution of $0.0020 per share at the end of December 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, 2009, all of
the Funds in this report had positive UNII balances for tax purposes. NUV, NMI
and NEV had positive UNII balances and NUW had a negative UNII balance for
financial statement purposes.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS/TRUSTEES AND SHAREHOLDERS
NUVEEN MUNICIPAL VALUE FUND, INC.
NUVEEN MUNICIPAL VALUE FUND 2
NUVEEN MUNICIPAL INCOME FUND, INC.
NUVEEN ENHANCED MUNICIPAL VALUE FUND
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including
the portfolios of investments, of Nuveen Municipal Value Fund, Inc., Nuveen
Municipal Value Fund 2, Nuveen Municipal Income Fund, Inc. and Nuveen Enhanced
Municipal Value Fund (the "Funds") as of October 31, 2009, and the related
statements of operations, changes in net assets and the financial highlights for
the periods indicated therein. These financial statements and financial
highlights are the responsibility of the Funds' management. Our responsibility
is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights
based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the Standards of the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan
and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. We were
not engaged to perform an audit of the Funds' internal control over financial
reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial
reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the
circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the
effectiveness of the Funds' internal control over financial reporting.
Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements and financial highlights, assessing the accounting principles used
and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of
securities owned as of October 31, 2009, by correspondence with the custodian
and brokers or by other appropriate auditing procedures where replies from
brokers were not received. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to
above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial positions of
Nuveen Municipal Value Fund, Inc., Nuveen Municipal Value Fund 2, Nuveen
Municipal Income Fund, Inc. and Nuveen Enhanced Municipal Value Fund at October
31, 2009, the results of their operations, changes in their net assets and the
financial highlights for the periods indicated therein in conformity with US
generally accepted accounting principles.

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), Nuveen Municipal Income Fund, Inc. (NMI) and Nuveen Enhanced Municipal
Value Fund (NEV) (collectively, the "Funds"). The Funds are registered under the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as closed-end, management investment
companies.
Prior to the commencement of operations, Municipal Value 2 (NUW) and Enhanced
Municipal Value (NEV) had no operations other than those related to
organizational matters, the initial capital contribution for each Fund of
$100,275 by Nuveen Asset Management (the "Advisor"), a wholly owned subsidiary
of Nuveen Investments, Inc. ("Nuveen"), and the recording of each Fund's
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.
In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) established the
FASB Accounting Standards Codification(TM) (the "Codification") as the single
source of authoritative accounting principles recognized by the FASB in the
preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles (GAAP). The Codification supersedes existing
non-grandfathered, non-SEC accounting and reporting standards. The Codification
did not change GAAP but rather organized it into a hierarchy where all guidance
within the Codification carries an equal level of authority. The Codification
became effective for financial statements issued for interim and annual periods
ending after September 15, 2009. The Codification did not have a material effect
on the Funds' financial statements.
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 or derivative instrument, 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 and 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 October 31, 2009, Enhanced
Municipal Value (NEV) had outstanding when-issued/delayed delivery purchase
commitments of $32,632,106. There were no such outstanding purchase commitments
in any 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. Furthermore,
each Fund intends to satisfy conditions which will enable
Nuveen Investments 47
| Notes to
| Financial Statements (continued)
interest from municipal securities, which is exempt from regular federal income
tax, 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
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 reflected as a financing transaction," 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 recognizes the related interest paid to the holders of the
short-term floating rate certificates as "Interest expense on floating rate
obligations" on the Statement of Operations.
During the fiscal year ended October 31, 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 October 31, 2009, Municipal Value 2 (NUW)
invested in externally-deposited inverse floaters. During the period September
25, 2009 (commencement of operations) through October 31, 2009, Enhanced
Municipal Value (NEV) invested in externally-deposited inverse floaters.
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 October 31, 2009, each Fund's maximum exposure to externally-deposited
Recourse Trusts is as follows:
ENHANCED
MUNICIPAL MUNICIPAL MUNICIPAL MUNICIPAL
VALUE (NUV) VALUE 2 (NUW) INCOME (NMI) VALUE (NEV)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Maximum exposure to Recourse Trusts $ 7,500,000 $ 8,665,000 $ 3,005,000 $ 134,065,000
===============================================================================================

The average floating rate obligations outstanding and average annual interest
rate and fees related to self-deposited inverse floaters during the fiscal year
ended October 31, 2009, were as follows:
MUNICIPAL MUNICIPAL

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Average floating rate obligations outstanding $38,250,000 $ 3,335,000
Average annual interest rate and fees 0.79% 0.74%
===============================================================================
Futures Contracts
Each Fund is subject to interest rate risk in the normal course of pursuing its
investment objectives and is authorized to invest in futures contracts in
attempt to manage such risk. 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." Cash held by the broker to cover initial margin requirements on open
futures contracts, if any, is recognized as "Deposits with brokers for open
futures contracts" on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Subsequent
payments ("variation margin") are made or received by a Fund each day, depending
on the daily fluctuation of the value of the contract. Variation margin is
recognized as a receivable or payable for "Variation margin on futures
contracts" on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities, when applicable.
During the period the futures contract is open, changes in the value of the
contract are recorded as an unrealized gain or loss by "marking-to-market" on a
daily basis to reflect the changes in market value of the contract and is
recognized as "Change in net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of futures
contracts" on the Statement of Operations. 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 and is recognized as "Net realized gain (loss) from
futures contracts" on the Statement of Operations. Municipal Income (NMI)
invested in futures contracts during the fiscal year ended October 31, 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.
The average number of futures contracts outstanding during the fiscal year ended
October 31, 2009, was as follows:
MUNICIPAL
INCOME (NMI)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Average number of futures contracts outstanding 5*
================================================================================
* The average number of contracts is calculated based on the outstanding
contracts at the beginning of the fiscal year and at the end of each
fiscal quarter within the current fiscal year. The Fund was not invested
in futures contracts at the end of the current fiscal year.
Refer to Footnote 3 - Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities for further
details on futures contract activity.
Market and Counterparty Credit Risk
In the normal course of business each Fund may invest in financial instruments
and enter into financial transactions where risk of potential loss exists due to
changes in the market (market risk) or failure of the other party to the
transaction to perform (counterparty credit risk). The potential loss could
exceed the value of the financial assets recorded on the financial statements.
Financial assets, which potentially expose each Fund to counterparty credit
risk, consist principally of cash due from counterparties on forward, option and
swap transactions. The extent of each Fund's exposure to counterparty credit
risk in respect to these financial assets approximates their carrying value as
recorded on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Futures contracts expose a
Fund to minimal counterparty credit risk as they are exchange traded and the
exchange's clearinghouse, which is counterparty to all exchange traded futures,
guarantees the futures contracts against default.
Each Fund helps manage counterparty credit risk by entering into agreements only
with counterparties the Adviser believes have the financial resources to honor
their obligations and by having the Adviser monitor the financial stability of
the counterparties. Additionally, counterparties may be required to pledge
collateral daily (based on the daily valuation of the financial asset) on behalf
of each Fund with a value approximately equal to the amount of any unrealized
gain above a pre-determined threshold. Reciprocally, when each Fund has an
unrealized loss, 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 valuations fluctuate, either
up or down, by at least the predetermined threshold amount.
Nuveen Investments 49
| Notes to
| Financial Statements (continued)
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 each Municipal Value 2's (NUW) and Enhanced Municipal Value's
(NEV) shares. Municipal Value 2's (NUW) and Enhanced Municipal Value's (NEV)
share offering costs ($378,000 and $534,000, respectively) were recorded as
reductions of the proceeds from each Fund's 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 authoritative guidance under
GAAP on determining fair value measurements. This guidance defines fair value,
establishes a framework for measuring fair value in GAAP 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, 2009:
MUNICIPAL VALUE (NUV) LEVEL 1 LEVEL 2 LEVEL 3 TOTAL

3. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES
During the current fiscal period, the Funds adopted amendments to authoritative
guidance under GAAP on disclosures about derivative instruments and hedging
activities. This guidance is intended to enhance financial statement disclosures
for derivative instruments and hedging activities and enable investors to better
understand: a) how and why a fund uses derivative instruments; b) how derivative
instruments are accounted for; and c) how derivative instruments affect a fund's
financial position, results of operations and cash flows, if any. The Funds
record derivative instruments at fair value with changes in fair value
recognized on the Statement of Operations, when applicable. Even though the
Funds' investments in derivatives may represent economic hedges, under this
guidance they are considered to be non-hedge transactions for financial
reporting purposes. For additional information on the derivative instruments in
which each Fund was invested during and at the end of the reporting period,
refer to the Portfolio of Investments, Financial Statements and Footnote 1 -
General Information and Significant Accounting Policies.
The following tables presents the amount of net realized gain (loss) and change
in net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) recognized for the fiscal year
ended October 31, 2009, on derivative instruments, as well as the primary risk
exposure associated with each. Municipal Income (NMI) held derivative
instruments during the fiscal year ended October 31, 2009. None of the Funds had
derivative contracts outstanding at October 31, 2009.

6. 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
securities reflected as financing transactions, 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 October 31, 2009, the cost of investments was as follows:

7. 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, is 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
================================================================================
Municipal Value 2's (NUW) annual fund-level fee, payable monthly, is based upon
the average daily managed net 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, is based upon

For the first $125 million .4500%
For the next $125 million .4375

For the next $3 billion .3875
For net assets over $5 billion .3750
================================================================================
Enhanced Municipal Value's (NEV) annual fund-level fee, payable monthly, is
based upon the average daily managed net assets of the Fund as follows:
ENHANCED MUNICIPAL VALUE (NEV)
AVERAGE DAILY MANAGED 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 net assets over $2 billion .3875
================================================================================
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 net assets managed as stated in the following table. As of October 31,
2009, the complex-level fee rate was .1907%.
The complex-level fee schedule is as follows:
COMPLEX-LEVEL NET ASSET BREAKPOINT
LEVEL (1) EFFECTIVE RATE 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.
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.

8. NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets
During June 2009, the FASB issued changes to the authoritative guidance under
GAAP on accounting for transfers of financial assets. The objective of this
guidance is to improve the relevance, representational faithfulness, and
comparability of the information that a reporting entity provides in its
financial statements about a transfer of financial assets; the effects of a
transfer on its financial position, financial performance, and cash flows; and a
transferor's continuing involvement, if any, in transferred financial assets.
This guidance is effective as of the beginning of each reporting entity's first
annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009, for interim periods
within that first annual reporting period and for interim and annual reporting
periods thereafter. Earlier application is prohibited. The recognition and
measurement provisions of this guidance must be applied to transfers occurring
on or after the effective date. Additionally, the disclosure provisions of this
guidance should be applied to transfers that occurred both before and after the
effective date of this guidance. At this time, management is evaluating the
implications of this guidance and the impact it will have on the financial
statement amounts and disclosures, if any.
9. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
Distributions to Shareholders
The Funds declared dividend distributions from their tax-exempt net investment
income which were paid on December 1, 2009, to shareholders of record on
November 15, 2009, as follows:
ENHANCED
MUNICIPAL MUNICIPAL MUNICIPAL MUNICIPAL
VALUE (NUV) VALUE 2 (NUW) INCOME (NMI) VALUE (NEV)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dividend per share $ .0390 $ .0750 $ .0470 $ .0760
================================================================================
Shares Sold
On November 5, 2009, Enhanced Municipal Value (NEV) sold and additional
1,400,000 shares.
Evaluation Date
In May 2009, the FASB issued changes to authoritative guidance under GAAP for
subsequent events. This guidance requires an entity to recognize in the
financial statements the effects of all subsequent events that provide
additional evidence about conditions that existed at the date of the balance
sheet. This guidance is intended to establish general standards of accounting
and for disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before
financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. This guidance
requires the disclosure of the date through which an entity has evaluated
subsequent events and the basis for that date - that is, whether that date
represents the date the financial statements were issued or were available to be
issued. This guidance is effective for interim and annual periods ending after
June 15, 2009. The Funds have performed an evaluation of subsequent events
through December 28, 2009, which is the date the financial statements were
issued.

* 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 may take 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.
** Expense ratios do not reflect the reduction of custodian fee credits
earned on the Fund's net cash on deposit with the custodian bank and
legal fee refund, where applicable.
*** Annualized.
(a) The expense ratios in the above table reflect, among other things, the
interest expense deemed to have been paid by the Fund on the floating
rate certificates issued by the special purpose trusts for the
self-deposited inverse floaters held by the Fund, as described in
Footnote 1 - Inverse Floating Rate Securities.
(b) For the period February 25, 2009 (commencement of operations) through
October 31, 2009.

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 27-29, 2009 (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 (other than
the Nuveen Municipal Value Fund 2 (the "Municipal Value Fund 2") and the Nuveen
Enhanced Municipal Value Fund (the "Enhanced Municipal Value Fund")), including
a majority of the Independent Board Members, considered and approved the
continuation of the advisory agreements (each an "Advisory Agreement") between
each Fund (other than the Municipal Value Fund 2 and the Enhanced Municipal
Value Fund) and Nuveen Asset Management ("NAM") for an additional one-year
period. In preparation for their considerations at the May Meeting, such Boards
also held a separate meeting on April 21-22, 2009 (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.
The Municipal Value Fund 2 and the Enhanced Municipal Value Fund are new Funds.
The initial Advisory Agreement between NAM and the Municipal Value Fund 2 was
approved separately at a meeting of such Fund's Board held on January 27, 2009
and was not up for renewal at the May Meeting. The initial Advisory Agreement
between NAM and the Enhanced Municipal Value Fund was approved separately at a
meeting of such Fund's Board held on July 28-29, 2009.
The discussion of the approvals for the Nuveen Municipal Value Fund, Inc. and
the Nuveen Municipal Income Fund, Inc. is set forth below in Section I, followed
by the discussion in Section II of the approval for the Enhanced Municipal Value
Fund. The discussion of the approval for the Municipal Value Fund 2 was included
in the semi-annual report for such Fund for the period ending April 30, 2009.
Nuveen Investments 63
Annual Investment Management Agreement Approval Process (continued)
I.
NUVEEN MUNICIPAL VALUE FUND, INC.
NUVEEN MUNICIPAL INCOME FUND, INC.
With respect to the Funds listed above (for purposes of this Section I, the
"Funds"), in evaluating the applicable Advisory Agreements (for purposes of this
Section I, the "Advisory Agreements"), 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 and/or customized benchmarks (as
applicable) of the Funds, the profitability of Nuveen for its advisory
activities (which includes its wholly owned subsidiaries other than Winslow
Capital Management, Inc. ("Winslow Capital"), which was recently acquired in
December 2008), 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.
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.
In reviewing the services provided and the initiatives undertaken during the
past year, the Independent Board Members recognized the severe market turmoil
experienced in the capital markets during recent periods, including sustained
periods of high volatility, credit disruption and government intervention. The
Independent Board Members considered NAM's efforts, expertise and other actions
taken to address matters as they
64 Nuveen Investments
arose that impacted the Funds. The Independent Board Members recognized the role
of the Investment Services group which, among other things, monitors the various
positions throughout the Nuveen fund complex to identify and address any
systematic risks. In addition, the Capital Markets Committee of NAM provides a
multi-departmental venue for developing new policies to mitigate any risks. The
Independent Board Members further recognized NAM's continuous review of the
Nuveen funds' investment strategies and mandates in seeking to continue to
refine and improve the investment process for the funds, particularly in light
of market conditions. With respect to closed-end funds that issued auction rate
preferred shares ("ARPs") or that otherwise utilize leverage, the Independent
Board Members noted, in particular, NAM's efforts in refi-nancing the preferred
shares of such funds frozen by the collapse of the auction rate market and
managing leverage during a period of rapid market declines, particularly for the
non-equity funds. Such efforts included negotiating and maintaining the
availability of bank loan facilities and other sources of credit used for
investment purposes or to satisfy liquidity needs, liquidating portfolio
securities during difficult times to meet leverage ratios, and seeking
alternative forms of debt and other leverage that may over time reduce financing
costs associated with ARPs and enable the funds that have issued ARPs to restore
liquidity to ARPs holders. The Independent Board Members also noted Nuveen's
continued commitment and efforts to keep investors and financial advisers
informed as to its progress with the ARPs through, among other things,
conference calls, emails, press releases, information posted on its website, and
telephone calls and in-person meetings with financial advisers. In addition to
the foregoing, the Independent Board Members also noted the additional services
that NAM or its affiliates provide to closed-end funds, including, in
particular, 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 provide
timely information and education to financial advisers and investors; providing
advertising and marketing for the closed-end funds; maintaining websites; and
providing educational seminars.
As part of their review, the Independent Board Members also evaluated the
background, experience and track record of NAM's investment personnel. In this
regard, the Independent Board Members considered any changes in the personnel,
and the impact on the level of services provided to the Funds, if any. 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, preserve stability, and reward performance but not
provide an incentive for taking undue risks.
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. Given the importance of compliance, the
Independent Board Members considered NAM's compliance program, including the
report of the chief compliance officer regarding the Funds' compliance policies
and procedures.
Nuveen Investments 65
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 provided (and expected to be provided) to
the respective Funds under the Advisory Agreements were satisfactory.
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 provider of mutual fund data as well as recognized
and/or customized benchmarks (as applicable). The Independent Board Members
reviewed performance information including, among other things, total return
information compared with the Fund's Performance Peer Group and recognized
and/or customized benchmarks (as applicable) for the quarter-, one-, three- and
five-year periods (as applicable) ending December 31, 2008 and for the same
periods (as applicable) ending March 31, 2009. The Independent Board Members
also reviewed performance information of the Nuveen municipal funds managed by
NAM in the aggregate ranked by peer group and the performance of such funds, in
the aggregate, relative to their benchmark. This information supplemented the
Fund performance information provided to the Board at each of its quarterly
meetings.
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 further considered the performance of the Funds in the
context of the volatile market conditions during the past year, and their impact
on various asset classes and the portfolio management of the Funds.
Based on their review and factoring in the severity of market turmoil in 2008,
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, net
management fees and total expense ratios (before and after expense
reimbursements and/or waivers) in absolute terms as well as compared to
the fee and expenses of a comparable universe of unaffiliated funds based
on data provided by an independent fund data provider (the "Peer
Universe") and in certain cases, to a more focused subset of funds in the
Peer Universe (the "Peer Group").
The Independent Board Members further reviewed data regarding the
construction of the applicable Peer Universe and Peer Group. 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 asset level of a fund relative to peers, the
66 Nuveen Investments
size and particular composition of the Peer Universe or Peer Group, the
investment objectives of the peers, expense anomalies, changes in the
funds comprising the Peer Universe or Peer Group from year to year, levels
of reimbursement and the timing of information used may impact the
comparative data, thereby limiting the ability to make a meaningful
comparison. In addition, the Independent Board Members considered, among
other things, the differences in the use and type of leverage compared to
the peers. 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 other than
Winslow Capital) and its financial condition. The Independent Board
Members reviewed the revenues and expenses of Nuveen's advisory activities
for the last two years, the allocation methodology used in preparing the
profitability data and an analysis of the key drivers behind the changes
in revenues and expenses that impacted profitability in 2008. In addition,
the Independent Board Members reviewed information regarding the financial
results of Nuveen for 2008 based on its Form 8-K filed on March 31, 2009.
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
Nuveen Investments 67
Annual Investment Management Agreement Approval Process (continued)
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 also considered Nuveen's revenues for advisory
activities, expenses, and profit margin compared to that of various
unaffiliated management firms with similar amounts of assets under
management and relatively comparable asset composition 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 their review, the Independent Board Members concluded that
Nuveen's level of profitability for its advisory activities was reasonable
in light of the services provided.
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 have
recognized the potential benefits resulting from the costs of a fund being
spread over a larger asset base, although economies of scale are difficult to
measure and predict with precision, particularly on a fund-by-fund basis. One
method to help ensure the shareholders share in these benefits is to include
breakpoints in the advisory fee schedule. Generally, management fees for funds
in the Nuveen complex are comprised of a fund-level component and a
complex-level component, subject to certain exceptions. Accordingly, the
Independent Board Members reviewed and considered the applicable fund-level
breakpoints in the advisory fee schedules that reduce advisory fees as asset
levels increase. In this regard, the Independent Board Members noted that
although closed-end funds may from time-to-time make additional share offerings,
the growth of their assets will occur primarily through the appreciation of such
funds' investment portfolio.
68 Nuveen Investments
While economies of scale result when costs can be spread over a larger asset
base, the Independent Board Members also recognized that the asset levels
generally declined in 2008 due to, among other things, the market downturn.
Accordingly, for funds with a reduction in assets under management, advisory fee
levels may have increased as breakpoints in the fee schedule were no longer
surpassed.
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 generally are reduced
as the assets in the fund complex reach certain levels. 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. Generally, the complex-wide pricing reduces
Nuveen's revenue because total complex fund assets have consistently grown in
prior years. As noted, however, total fund assets declined in 2008 resulting in
a smaller downward adjustment of revenues due to complex-wide pricing compared
to the prior year.
Based on their review, the Independent Board Members concluded that the
breakpoint schedules and complex-wide fee arrangement were acceptable and
reflect economies of scale to be shared with shareholders when assets under
management increase.
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 trading desk.
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.
Nuveen Investments 69
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.
II
Nuveen Enhanced Municipal Value Fund
The Board Members are responsible for approving the advisory arrangement of the
Enhanced Municipal Value Fund (for purposes of this Section II, the "Fund") and,
at a meeting held on July 28-29, 2009 (for purposes of this Section II, the
"Meeting"), the Board Members, including the Independent Board Members,
considered and approved the investment advisory agreement (for purposes of this
Section II, the "Advisory Agreement") between NAM and the Fund.
To assist the Board in its evaluation of the Advisory 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 certain performance-related information (as described below);
o the profitability of Nuveen Investments, Inc. ("Nuveen") (which
incorporated Nuveen's wholly-owned affiliated sub-advisers other than
Winslow Capital Management, Inc. (" Winslow Capital") which was recently
acquired in December 2008);
o the proposed management fees of NAM, including comparisons of such fees
with the management fees of comparable funds;
o the expected expenses of the Fund, including comparisons of the Fund's
expected expense ratio with the expense ratios of comparable 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 for the Fund. As outlined in 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
70 Nuveen Investments
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 Advisory 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. Further, the Independent Board Members have evaluated the
background, experience and track record 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, 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 provide timely information and education to financial advisers and
investors; providing advertising and marketing for the closed-end funds;
maintaining websites; and providing educational seminars.
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 Advisory Agreement were satisfactory.
Nuveen Investments 71
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 employ substantially the
same investment philosophy and strategies used in certain other national
leveraged municipal closed-end funds managed by NAM. In this regard, the
Independent Board Members were provided with certain average dividend yield
information (as of July 21, 2009) pertaining to such other Nuveen funds.
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 funds.
The Independent Board Members noted that the Fund may make investments in
certain instruments that have the economic effect of leverage, including
inverse floating rate securities (such as those 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 assets attributable to the
Fund's use of effective leverage such as, but not limited to, the portion
of assets in tender option bond trusts) minus the sum of accrued
liabilities (other than Fund liabilities incurred for the express purpose
of creating effective leverage). Accordingly, the advisory fees paid to
NAM for investment advisory services will be higher if the Fund uses
effective leverage, which may create a conflict of interest between NAM
and Fund shareholders. This methodology is consistent with that used on
certain other Nuveen municipal closed-end 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 fee waivers and expense reimbursements
expected 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.
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. Such other clients
include separately managed accounts (both retail and institutional
accounts) and funds that are not offered by Nuveen but are sub-advised by
one of Nuveen's investment management
72 Nuveen Investments
teams. 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 other than Winslow Capital) and its financial condition. At
the Meeting or prior meetings, the Independent Board Members reviewed the
revenues and expenses of Nuveen's advisory activities, the allocation
methodology used in preparing the profitability data and an analysis of
the key drivers behind the changes in revenues and expenses that impacted
profitability in 2008. In addition, the Independent Board Members have
reviewed information regarding the financial results of Nuveen for 2008
based on its Form 8-K filed on March 31, 2009. They also reviewed the Form
8-K filed by Nuveen on July 9, 2009 (relating to, among other things,
proposed financing and amendments to Nuveen's credit facility). The
Independent Board Members have also considered, at the Meeting or at prior
meetings, Nuveen's revenues for advisory activities, expenses, and profit
margin compared to that of various unaffiliated management firms with
similar amounts of assets under management and relatively comparable asset
composition 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. Based on their review, the Independent
Board Members concluded that Nuveen's level of profitability for its
advisory activities was reasonable in light of the services to be
provided.
Nuveen Investments 73
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 have
recognized the potential benefits resulting from the costs of a fund being
spread over a larger asset base, although economies of scale are difficult to
measure and predict with precision, particularly on a fund-by-fund basis. The
Independent Board Members therefore considered whether the Fund could be
expected to benefit from any economies of scale. One method to help ensure that
shareholders share in these benefits is to include breakpoints in the advisory
fee schedule. Generally, management fees for funds in the Nuveen complex are
comprised of a fund-level component and a complex-level component. 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, however, 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 generally 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 reflect economies of scale to
be shared with the Fund's shareholders.
E. INDIRECT BENEFITS
In evaluating fees, the Independent Board Members also considered information
regarding potential "fall out" or ancillary benefits that 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 trading desk.
74 Nuveen Investments
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
Advisory 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 Advisory Agreement
should be and was approved on behalf of the Fund.

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
76 Nuveen Investments
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 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.
o INVERSE FLOATERS: Inverse floating rate securities, also known as inverse
floaters, 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.
78 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 shares outstanding. Fund NAVs are calculated at
the end of each business day.
o PRE-REFUNDING: Pre-refunding, also known as advanced refundings or
refinancings, is a procedure used by state and local governments to
refinance municipal bonds to lower interest expenses. The issuer sells new
bonds with a lower yield and uses the proceeds to buy U.S. Treasury
securities, the interest from which is used to make payments on the
higher-yielding bonds. Because of this collateral, pre-refunding generally
raises a bond's credit rating and thus its value.
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.

As of the end of the period covered by this report, the registrant has adopted a
code of ethics that applies to the registrant's principal executive officer,
principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, or
persons performing similar functions. There were no amendments to or waivers
from the Code during the period covered by this report. The registrant has
posted the code of ethics on its website at www.nuveen.com/CEF/Info/Shareholder.
(To view the code, click on Fund Governance and then click on Code of Conduct.)
ITEM 3. AUDIT COMMITTEE FINANCIAL EXPERT.
The registrant's Board of Directors or Trustees ("Board") determined that the

Item 3 of Form N-CSR) serving on its Audit Committee. The registrant's audit
committee financial expert is Jack B. Evans, who is "independent" for purposes
of Item 3 of Form N-CSR.
Mr. Evans was formerly President and Chief Operating Officer of SCI Financial
Group, Inc., a full service registered broker-dealer and registered investment
adviser ("SCI"). As part of his role as President and Chief Operating Officer,
Mr. Evans actively supervised the Chief Financial Officer (the "CFO") and
actively supervised the CFO's preparation of financial statements and other

The following tables show the amount of fees that Ernst & Young LLP, the Fund's
auditor, billed to the Fund during the Fund's last two full fiscal years. For
engagements with Ernst & Young LLP the Audit Committee approved in advance all
audit services and non-audit services that Ernst & Young LLP provided to the
Fund, except for those non-audit services that were subject to the pre-approval
exception under Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X (the "pre-approval exception"). The
pre-approval exception for services provided directly to the Fund waives the
pre-approval requirement for services other than audit, review or attest
services if: (A) the aggregate amount of all such services provided constitutes
no more than 5% of the total amount of revenues paid by the Fund to its
accountant during the fiscal year in which the services are provided; (B) the
Fund did not recognize the services as non-audit services at the time of the
engagement; and (C) the services are promptly brought to the Audit Committee's
attention, and the Committee (or its delegate) approves the services before the
audit is completed.

NON-AUDIT SERVICES
The following table shows the amount of fees that Ernst & Young LLP billed
during the Fund's last two full fiscal years for non-audit services. The Audit
Committee is required to pre-approve non-audit services that Ernst & Young LLP
provides to the Adviser and any Affiliated Fund Services Provider, if the
engagement related directly to the Fund's operations and financial reporting
(except for those subject to the pre-approval exception described above). The
Audit Committee requested and received information from Ernst & Young LLP about
any non-audit services that Ernst & Young LLP rendered during the Fund's last
fiscal year to the Adviser and any Affiliated Fund Service Provider. The
Committee considered this information in evaluating Ernst & Young LLP's
independence.

Audit Committee Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures. Generally, the Audit
Committee must approve (i) all non-audit services to be performed for the Fund
by the Fund's independent accountants and (ii) all audit and non-audit services
to be performed by the Fund's independent accountants for the Affiliated Fund
Service Providers with respect to operations and financial reporting of the
Fund. Regarding tax and research projects conducted by the independent
accountants for the Fund and Affiliated Fund Service Providers (with respect to
operations and financial reports of the Fund) such engagements will be (i)
pre-approved by the Audit Committee if they are expected to be for amounts
greater than $10,000; (ii) reported to the Audit Committee chairman for his
verbal approval prior to engagement if they are expected to be for amounts under
$10,000 but greater than $5,000; and (iii) reported to the Audit Committee at
the next Audit Committee meeting if they are expected to be for an amount under
$5,000.
ITEM 5. AUDIT COMMITTEE OF LISTED REGISTRANTS.
The registrant's Board has a separately designated Audit Committee established
in accordance with Section 3(a)(58)(A) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
as amended (15 U.S.C. 78c(a)(58)(A)). The members of the audit committee are
Robert P. Bremner, Jack B. Evans, Terence J. Toth, William J. Schneider and
David J. Kundert.
ITEM 6. SCHEDULE OF INVESTMENTS.
a) See Portfolio of Investments in Item 1.
b) Not applicable.
ITEM 7. DISCLOSURE OF PROXY VOTING POLICIES AND PROCEDURES FOR CLOSED-END
MANAGEMENT INVESTMENT COMPANIES.
The registrant invests its assets primarily in municipal bonds and cash
management securities. On rare occasions the registrant may acquire, directly or
through a special purpose vehicle, equity securities of a municipal bond issuer
whose bonds the registrant already owns when such bonds have deteriorated or are
expected shortly to deteriorate significantly in credit quality. The purpose of
acquiring equity securities generally will be to acquire control of the
municipal bond issuer and to seek to prevent the credit deterioration or
facilitate the liquidation or other workout of the distressed issuer's credit
problem. In the course of exercising control of a distressed municipal issuer,
NAM may pursue the registrant's interests in a variety of ways, which may entail
negotiating and executing consents, agreements and other arrangements, and
otherwise influencing the management of the issuer. NAM does not consider such
activities proxy voting for purposes of Rule 206(4)-6 under the 1940 Act, but
nevertheless provides reports to the registrant's Board on its control
activities on a quarterly basis.
In the rare event that a municipal issuer were to issue a proxy or that the
registrant were to receive a proxy issued by a cash management security, NAM
would either engage an independent third party to determine how the proxy should
be voted or vote the proxy with the consent, or based on the instructions, of
the registrant's Board or its representative. A member of NAM's legal department
would oversee the administration of the voting, and ensure that records were
maintained in accordance with Rule 206(4)-6, reports were filed with the SEC on
Form N-PX, and the results provided to the registrant's Board and made available
to shareholders as required by applicable rules.
ITEM 8. PORTFOLIO MANAGERS OF CLOSED-END MANAGEMENT INVESTMENT COMPANIES.
THE PORTFOLIO MANAGER
The following individual has primary responsibility for the day-to-day
implementation of the registrant's investment strategies:
NAME FUND
THOMAS SPALDING Nuveen Municipal Value Fund, Inc.
Other Accounts Managed. In addition to managing the registrant, the portfolio
manager is also primarily responsible for the day-to-day portfolio management of
the following accounts:
TYPE OF ACCOUNT NUMBER OF
PORTFOLIO MANAGER MANAGED ACCOUNTS ASSETS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Thomas Spalding Registered Investment Company 11 $7.3 billion
Other Pooled Investment Vehicles 0 $0
Other Accounts 4 $16.6 million
* Assets are as of October 31, 2009. None of the assets in these accounts are
subject to an advisory fee based on performance.
Compensation. Each portfolio manager's compensation consists of three basic
elements--base salary, cash bonus and long-term incentive compensation. The
compensation strategy is to annually compare overall compensation, including
these three elements, to the market in order to create a compensation structure
that is competitive and consistent with similar financial services companies. As
discussed below, several factors are considered in determining each portfolio
manager's total compensation. In any year these factors may include, among
others, the effectiveness of the investment strategies recommended by the
portfolio manager's investment team, the investment performance of the accounts
managed by the portfolio manager, and the overall performance of Nuveen
Investments, Inc. (the parent company of NAM). Although investment performance
is a factor in determining the portfolio manager's compensation, it is not
necessarily a decisive factor. The portfolio manager's performance is evaluated
in part by comparing manager's performance against a specified investment
benchmark. This fund-specific benchmark is a customized subset (limited to bonds
in each Fund's specific state and with certain maturity parameters) of the
S&P/Investortools Municipal Bond index, an index comprised of bonds held by
managed municipal bond fund customers of Standard & Poor's Securities Pricing,
Inc. that are priced daily and whose fund holdings aggregate at least $2
million. As of October 31, 2009, the S&P/Investortools Municipal Bond index was
comprised of 54,552 securities with an aggregate current market value of $1,178
billion.
Base salary. Each portfolio manager is paid a base salary that is set at a level
determined by NAM in accordance with its overall compensation strategy discussed
above. NAM is not under any current contractual obligation to increase a
portfolio manager's base salary.
Cash bonus. Each portfolio manager is also eligible to receive an annual cash
bonus. The level of this bonus is based upon evaluations and determinations made
by each portfolio manager's supervisors, along with reviews submitted by his
peers. These reviews and evaluations often take into account a number of
factors, including the effectiveness of the investment strategies recommended to
the NAM's investment team, the performance of the accounts for which he serves
as portfolio manager relative to any benchmarks established for those accounts,
his effectiveness in communicating investment performance to stockholders and
their representatives, and his contribution to the NAM's investment process and
to the execution of investment strategies. The cash bonus component is also
impacted by the overall performance of Nuveen Investments, Inc. in achieving its
business objectives.
Long-term incentive compensation. In connection with the acquisition of Nuveen
Investments, Inc., by a group of investors led by Madison Dearborn Partners in
November 2007, certain employees, including portfolio managers, received profit
interests in Nuveen's parent. These profit interests entitle the holders to
participate in the appreciation in the value of Nuveen beyond the issue date and
vest over five to seven years, or earlier in the case of a liquidity event. In
addition, in July 2009, Nuveen Investments created and funded a trust, as part
of a newly-established incentive program, which purchased shares of certain
Nuveen Mutual Funds and awarded such shares, subject to vesting, to certain
employees, including portfolio managers.
Material Conflicts of Interest. Each portfolio manager's simultaneous management
of the registrant and the other accounts noted above may present actual or
apparent conflicts of interest with respect to the allocation and aggregation of
securities orders placed on behalf of the registrant and the other account. NAM,
however, believes that such potential conflicts are mitigated by the fact that
the NAM has adopted several policies that address potential conflicts of
interest, including best execution and trade allocation policies that are
designed to ensure (1) that portfolio management is seeking the best price for
portfolio securities under the circumstances, (2) fair and equitable allocation
of investment opportunities among accounts over time and (3) compliance with
applicable regulatory requirements. All accounts are to be treated in a
non-preferential manner, such that allocations are not based upon account
performance, fee structure or preference of the portfolio manager, although the
allocation procedures may provide allocation preferences to funds with special
characteristics (such as favoring state funds versus national funds for
allocations of in-state bonds). In addition, NAM has adopted a Code of Conduct
that sets forth policies regarding conflicts of interest.
Beneficial Ownership of Securities. As of October 31, 2009, the portfolio
manager beneficially owned the following dollar range of equity securities
issued by the registrant and other Nuveen Funds managed by NAM's municipal
investment team.
