RE: Nuveen Managed Investment Companies
Rule 17g-1 Notice - Fidelity Bond Coverage
Dear Sir or Madam:
Pursuant to the provisions of Rule 17g-1 under the Investment Company Act of
1940, please be informed that the managed investment companies in the Nuveen
family are collectively covered by a fidelity bond policy.
The coverage in place for the Nuveen funds as of July 1, 2008, is under a policy
from Federal Insurance Company, with a small additional policy from Federal
Insurance Company.
This represents the addition of three new funds:
Nuveen NWQ Equity Income Fund
Nuveen Enhanced Municipal Value Fund
Nuveen Mortgage Opportunity Term Fund
Enclosed are:
1. A copy of the recovery allocation agreement.
2. A copy of resolutions adopted by a majority of the Board of the Nuveen
funds who are not "interested persons" approving the amount, type,
form and coverage of the bond and the portion of the premiums to be
paid by each fund.
3. A copy of the letter confirming the addition of the above-mentioned
funds to the Insurance Policy Number 81900065.
Please be advised that the premium for the currently effective bond has been
paid for the period July 1, 2009 through July 1, 2010.
Other supporting documentation, including a copy of the policy and
appropriations, will be sent in as soon as they are available.
Very truly yours,
NUVEEN FUNDS

AGREEMENT WITH RESPECT TO CERTAIN RECOVERY
UNDER JOINT FIDELITY BOND
This Agreement, made this 1st day of January, 2005 by and between the
undersigned corporations or business trusts (the "Funds"), each of which is a
registered investment company managed by Nuveen Asset Management.
WITNESSETH:
WHEREAS, the boards of directors or trustees of each of the Funds,
including a majority of the board members of each Fund who are not "interested
persons" of such Fund, have approved obtaining the fidelity bond coverage
required for each Fund by Rule 17g-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 in
the form of one or more bonds, each of which names a number of the Funds as
insured (the "joint insured bonds"); and
WHEREAS, Rule 17g-1(f) requires each registered management investment
company named as an insured in a joint insured bond to enter into an Agreement
with all other named insureds with respect to sharing of any recovery under such
bond in the event of a loss sustained by it and another named insured;
NOW THEREFORE, IT IS AGREED:
1. In the event recovery is received under any joint insured bond as a
result of a loss sustained by any two or more of the Funds covered by
such bond, each Fund sustaining a loss shall receive an equitable and
proportionate share of the recovery, but at least equal to the amount
that it would have received had it provided and maintained a single
insured bond with the minimum coverage required by Rule 17g-1(d)(1).
2. This Agreement shall continue in effect for such time as the parties
hereto shall be named as insureds under one or more joint insured
fidelity bonds designed to satisfy the requirements of Rule 17g-1, and
shall not be terminated by any change in the Funds covered by any such
bond or in the amount of terms of coverage provided by any such bond
or by any change in the issuer of any such bond.
3. This Agreement supersedes any prior agreement among any of the Funds
relating to the subject matter hereof.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, an officer of such parties has executed this Agreement on
behalf of each of the parties, as of the day and date first written above.
