Portfolio Managers'
Comments
Portfolio managers Scott Romans and Cathryn Steeves review key investment
strategies and the semiannual performance of these five Nuveen Funds. Scott, who
joined Nuveen in 2000, has managed the Arizona Funds since 2003. Cathryn, who
has been with Nuveen since 1996, assumed portfolio management responsibility for
NTX in 2004.
What key strategies were used to manage the Arizona and Texas Funds during the
six-month reporting period ended January 31, 2006?
During this period, bond valuations generally declined as yields generally rose
and the yield curve flattened, with shorter-term rates rising to approach the
levels of longer-term rates.
In this environment, one of our key strategies continued to be careful duration
management. Duration is a measure of a bond's price sensitivity as interest
rates change, with longer duration bonds displaying more sensitivity to these
changes than bonds with shorter durations. Our purchase activity focused mainly
on finding attractively priced bonds maturing in 15 to 20 years for the Arizona
Funds and in 15 to 25 years for NTX. As the yield curve flattened, we believed
that bonds in this range of the curve generally offered the most attractive
opportunities and the best values. We also continued to look for bonds with
premium coupons; that is, bonds that at the time of purchase were trading above
their par value because their coupons were higher than current interest rate
levels. Premium bonds have been in demand recently because historically they
have held their value better than current coupon bonds when long-term interest
rates rise.
To help us maintain the Funds' durations within our preferred range, we also
selectively sold holdings with shorter maturities, including pre-refunded bonds,
and reinvested the proceeds in longer maturities as attractive opportunities
arose. Proceeds from called bonds also were reinvested into longer maturities.
We also kept an opportunistic eye out for all types of bonds that we believed
could add value to the Funds. Because of the overall high credit quality of new
issue supply in both states, the majority of our new purchases were highly rated
and/or insured. However, due to Arizona's rapid population growth and
corresponding infrastructure
4
needs, the credit market in that state also offered some unique opportunities
among lower-rated land-secured issues and community facilities district bonds.
In NTX, we found some good opportunities in AAA-rated utilities bonds.
In NFZ, NKR and NXE, our duration management strategies also included the use of
forward interest rate swaps, a type of derivative financial instrument. As
discussed in our last shareholder report, we began using these swaps in late
2004 in an effort to reduce the interest rate risk of these three Funds. These
hedges were not an attempt to profit from correctly predicting the timing and
direction of interest rate movements. Instead, our sole objective was to reduce
the Funds' durations (and resulting price sensitivity) without having a negative
impact on their income streams or common share dividends over the short term.
During this reporting period, the hedges performed as expected and had a
positive impact on the returns of NFZ, NKR and NXE. As long-term interest rates
rose, the value of the hedges increased while the valuation of the Funds'
holdings generally declined.
How did the Funds perform?
Individual results for these Funds, as well as for relevant indexes and peer

For additional information, see the individual Performance Overview for your
Fund in this report.
(1) The Lehman Brothers Municipal Bond Index is an unleveraged, unmanaged
national index comprising a broad range of investment-grade municipal
bonds. Results for the Lehman index do not reflect any expenses. It is not
possible to invest directly in an index.
(2) The Lipper Other State Municipal Debt Funds category average is calculated
using the returns of all closed-end exchange-traded funds in this category
for each period as follows: 6 months, 44 funds; 1 year, 44 funds; 5 years,
19 funds; and 10 years, 17 funds. Fund and Lipper returns assume
reinvestment of dividends.
5
For the six months ended January 31, 2006, the cumulative returns on net asset
value (NAV) for NKR, NXE and NTX outperformed the return on the Lehman Brothers
Municipal Bond Index, while NAZ and NFZ underperformed this measure. All five of
the Funds in this report exceeded the average return for the Lipper Other States
peer group over the reporting period.
One of the factors affecting the six-month performance of the Funds relative to
that of the unleveraged Lehman Brothers municipal index was the Funds' use of
financial leverage. While leveraging provides opportunities for additional
income and total returns for common shareholders when interest rates fall or
remain consistently low (as they have over the past several years), this benefit
is reduced when interest rates rise. With the increase in long-term interest
rates during this six-month period, the decline in value of the bonds in these
Funds' portfolios was exacerbated by the effects of leveraging. In addition, the
benefits of leveraging are tied in part to the short-term rates leveraged Funds
pay their MuniPreferred(R) shareholders. During periods of low short-term rates,
these Funds generally pay lower dividends to their MuniPreferred shareholders,
which can leave more earnings to support common share dividends. Conversely,
when short-term interest rates rise, as they did during this reporting period,
the Funds' borrowing costs also rise, impacting the Funds' income streams, and
total returns. However, we remain convinced that, over the long term, leveraging
should work to the benefit of the Funds' performance as the older Funds' 5-year
and 10-year absolute and relative return performance illustrates.
During this reporting period, positive contributors to the Funds' returns
included exposure to the intermediate part of the yield curve, allocations to
lower-rated credits, pre-refunding activity in all of the Funds, and credit
upgrades of several of the Arizona Funds' holdings. As mentioned earlier, the
hedging strategies we employed in NFZ, NKR and NXE also had a positive impact on
the performance of these Funds for the period.
As the yield curve continued to flatten over the course of this period, bonds
with intermediate maturities generally outperformed both longer-maturity bonds
and those with short maturities. Yield curve positioning or, more specifically,
greater exposure to the intermediate part of the curve helped the performance of
all of these Funds. However, NAZ had more exposure to the longer end of the
curve than the other four
6
Funds in this report, which hampered its performance. Part of the duration
management strategies discussed earlier included efforts to more closely align
the yield curve positioning of all of these Funds.
All of the Funds also benefited from their allocations of lower-quality credits,
as bonds rated BBB or lower and non-rated bonds generally outperformed
higher-rated securities. This was largely the result of investor demand for the
higher yields typically associated with lower-quality bonds, which drove up the
prices of these bonds. Among the holdings making positive contributions to the
Funds' returns for this period were those from sectors that tend to have a
greater number of lower-quality credits, including healthcare (especially
hospitals), housing, and bonds backed by the 1998 master tobacco settlement
agreement. With some signs of improvement in the airline industry, NTX's small
position in American Airlines bonds, which were rated CCC by S&P as of the end
of the reporting period, also contributed to this Fund's performance.
We continued to see a substantial number of refinancings during this period,
which benefited the Funds through price appreciation and enhanced credit
quality. As the yield curve flattened, the impact of price appreciation from
advance refundings generally was less than in the previous reporting period.
NAZ, NKR and NXE also benefited from price appreciation associated with the
recent credit upgrade and improved tradability of bonds issued by Arizona Health
for Phoenix Children's Hospital. These bonds, which had been rated Ba2
(sub-investment grade) by Moody's were upgraded prior to the beginning of this
reporting period to Baa3 (investment-grade) based on the hospital's stronger
financial picture. Due to the size of NAZ's position ($2 million in par value),
the appreciation of these bonds made this holding the second largest contributor
to NAZ's performance for the period.
While pre-refundings generally enhanced performance for this six-month period,
the rising interest rate environment (especially in the one- to five-year part
of the yield curve) during this time meant that the Funds' holdings of older,
previously pre-refunded bonds tended to underperform the general municipal
market, due primarily to the shorter effective maturities of these bonds. This
was especially true in NAZ, which had the largest allocation of pre-refunded
bonds among the Funds in this report. In addition, NFZ
7
held bonds issued for a federally guaranteed multifamily housing project that
were restructured by the Federal Housing Administration, which had a negative
impact on the Fund's performance during this period.
How were the Funds positioned in terms of credit quality and bond calls as of
January 31, 2006?
We continued to believe that maintaining strong credit quality was an important
requirement. As of January 31, 2006, all of these Funds continued to offer
excellent credit quality, with allocations of bonds rated AAA/U.S. guaranteed
and AA ranging from 75% in NKR to 78% in NXE, 79% in NTX and 81% in NFZ and NAZ.
As of January 31, 2006, potential call exposure for the period February 2006
through the end of 2007 ranged from 0% in NXE to 1% in NKR, 4% in NAZ, 6% in NTX
and 10% in NFZ. The number of actual bond calls in all of these Funds depends
largely on future market interest rates.
8
Dividend and Share Price
Information
All of these Funds use leverage to potentially enhance opportunities for
additional income for common shareholders. During periods of rising short-term
interest rates, as was the case during this reporting period, the Funds'
borrowing costs also rise, reducing the extent of the benefits of leveraging.
The Funds' income streams were also impacted as the proceeds from older,
higher-yielding bonds that matured or were called and were reinvested into bonds
that generally offered lower yields. These factors resulted in one monthly
dividend reduction in NKR, NXE and NTX and two reductions in NAZ and NFZ over
the six-month period ended January 31, 2006.
In addition, due to normal portfolio activity, common shareholders of the
following Funds received capital gains or net ordinary income distributions at
the end of December 2005 as follows:
Long-Term Capital Gains Ordinary Income
(per share) (per share)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NFZ $0.0764 --
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NKR $0.1058 --
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NTX -- $0.0020
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
These distributions, which represented an important part of NFZ's and NKR's
total returns for this period, were generated by bond calls and the sale of
appreciated securities. This had a slight negative impact on the Funds' earning
power per common share and was a minor factor in the common share dividend
reductions noted above.
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 January 31, 2006, NFZ, NKR
and NTX had positive UNII balances for financial statement purposes, and
positive UNII balances, based on our best estimate, for tax purposes. As of
January 31, 2006, NAZ and NXE had negative UNII balances for financial statement
purposes and positive UNII balances, based on our best estimates, for tax
purposes.

discounts to their NAVs as shown in the accompanying chart:

Notes to
Financial Statements (Unaudited)
1. General Information and Significant Accounting Policies
The state funds (the "Funds") covered in this report and their corresponding
Common share stock exchange symbols are Nuveen Arizona Premium Income Municipal
Fund, Inc. (NAZ), Nuveen Arizona Dividend Advantage Municipal Fund (NFZ), Nuveen
Arizona Dividend Advantage Municipal Fund 2 (NKR), Nuveen Arizona Dividend
Advantage Municipal Fund 3 (NXE) and Nuveen Texas Quality Income Municipal Fund
(NTX). Common shares of Arizona Premium Income (NAZ) and Texas Quality Income
(NTX) are traded on the New York Stock Exchange while Common shares of Arizona
Dividend Advantage (NFZ), Arizona Dividend Advantage 2 (NKR) and Arizona
Dividend Advantage 3 (NXE) are traded on the American Stock Exchange. The Funds
are registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as
closed-end management investment companies.
Each Fund seeks to provide current income exempt from both regular federal and
applicable state income taxes, if any, by investing primarily in a diversified
portfolio of municipal obligations issued by state and local government
authorities within a single state or certain U.S. territories.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the
Funds in the preparation of their financial statements in accordance with U.S.
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. When
market price quotes are not readily available (which is usually the case for
municipal securities), the pricing service establishes fair market value based
on yields or prices of municipal bonds of comparable quality, type of issue,
coupon, maturity and rating, indications of value from securities dealers,
evaluations of anticipated cash flows or collateral and general market
conditions. Prices of derivative investments are also provided by an independent
pricing service approved by each Fund's Board of Directors/Trustees. If the
pricing service is unable to supply a price for a municipal bond or derivative
investment, each Fund may use a market price or fair market value quote provided
by a major broker/dealer in such investments. If it is determined that the
market price or fair market value quote for an investment is unavailable or
inappropriate, the Board of Directors/Trustees of the Funds, or its designee,
may establish a fair value for the investment. Temporary investments in
securities that have variable rate and demand features qualifying them as
short-term investments are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market
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 or 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 and delayed delivery purchase commitments. At January 31, 2006,
there were no such outstanding purchase commitments in any of the 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.
41
Notes to
Financial Statements (Unaudited) (continued)
Income Taxes
Each Fund is a separate taxpayer for federal income tax purposes. Each Fund
intends to distribute substantially all 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 interest from
municipal securities, which is exempt from regular federal and applicable state
income taxes, if any, 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.
Dividends and Distributions to Common 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 not less frequently than annually.
Furthermore, capital gains are distributed only to the extent they exceed
available capital loss carryforwards.
Distributions to Common 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 U.S.
generally accepted accounting principles.
Preferred Shares
The Funds have issued and outstanding Preferred shares, $25,000 stated value per
share, as a means of effecting financial leverage. Each Fund's Preferred shares
are issued in one or more Series. The dividend rate paid by the Funds on each
Series is determined every seven days, pursuant to a dutch auction process
overseen by the auction agent, and is payable at the end of each rate period.
The number of Preferred shares outstanding, by Series and in total, for each
Fund is as follows:
Arizona Arizona Arizona Arizona Texas
Premium Dividend Dividend Dividend Quality
Income Advantage Advantage 2 Advantage 3 Income
(NAZ) (NFZ) (NKR) (NXE) (NTX)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Number of shares:
Series M -- -- -- 880 760
Series T -- 480 -- -- --
Series W -- -- 740 -- --
Series TH 1,200 -- -- -- 2,000
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Total 1,200 480 740 880 2,760
================================================================================
Forward Swap Transactions
The Funds are authorized to invest in certain derivative financial instruments.
The Funds' use of forward interest rate swap transactions is intended to
mitigate the negative impact that an increase in long-term interest rates could
have on Common share net asset value. Forward interest rate swap transactions
involve each Fund's agreement with the counterparty to pay, in the future, a
fixed rate payment in exchange for the counterparty paying the Fund a variable
rate payment, the accruals for which would begin at a specified date in the
future (the "effective date"). The amount of the payment obligation is based on
the notional amount of the forward swap contract, and would increase or decrease
in value based primarily on the extent to which long-term interest rates for
bonds having a maturity of the swaps' termination date were to increase or
decrease. The Funds may close out a contract prior to the effective date, at
which point a realized gain or loss would be recognized. When a forward swap is
terminated, it ordinarily does not involve the delivery of securities or other
underlying assets or principal, but rather is settled in cash on a net basis.
Each Fund intends, but is not obligated to, terminate its forward swaps before
the effective date. Accordingly, the risk of loss with respect to the swap
counterparty on such transactions is limited to the credit risk associated with
a counterparty failing to honor its commitment to pay any realized gain to the
Fund upon termination. To minimize such credit risk, all counterparties are
required to pledge collateral daily (based on the daily valuation of each swap)
on behalf of each Fund with a value approximately equal to the amount of any
unrealized gain above a pre-determined threshold. Reciprocally, when any of the
Funds have an unrealized loss on a swap contract, 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 swap
valuations fluctuate, either up or down, by at least the predetermined threshold
amount.
42
Custodian Fee Credit
Each Fund has an arrangement with the custodian bank whereby certain custodian
fees and expenses are reduced by credits earned on each Fund's cash on deposit
with the bank. Such deposit arrangements are an alternative to overnight
investments.
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 U.S. 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 applicable to Common shares from operations during the
reporting period. Actual results may differ from those estimates.

Arizona Dividend Advantage 3 (NXE) elected to defer net realized losses from
investments incurred from November 1, 2004 through July 31, 2005 ("post-October
losses"), in accordance with federal income tax regulations. Post-October losses
of $376,462 were treated as having arisen on the first day of the current fiscal
year.
5. Management Fee and Other Transactions with Affiliates
Each Fund's management fee is separated into two components - a complex-level
component, based on the aggregate amount of all fund assets managed by Nuveen
Asset Management (the "Adviser"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Nuveen
Investments, Inc., and a specific fund-level component, based only on the amount
of assets within each individual fund. 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.
The annual fund-level fee, payable monthly, for each Fund is based upon the
average daily net assets (including net assets attributable to Preferred shares)
of each Fund as follows:
Arizona Premium Income (NAZ)
Average Daily Net Assets (including net Texas Quality Income (NTX)
assets attributable to Preferred shares) 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 the next $3 billion .3875
For net assets over $5 billion .3750
================================================================================
Arizona Dividend Advantage (NFZ)
Arizona Dividend Advantage 2 (NKR)
Average Daily Net Assets (including net Arizona Dividend Advantage 3 (NXE)
assets attributable to Preferred shares) 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 .3750
================================================================================
45
Notes to
Financial Statements (Unaudited) (continued)
The annual complex-level fee, payable monthly, which is additive to the
fund-level fee, for all Nuveen sponsored funds in the U.S., is based on the
aggregate amount of total fund assets managed as stated in the table below. As
of January 31, 2006, the complex-level fee rate was .1891%.
Complex-Level Assets(1) Complex-Level Fee Rate
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
For the first $55 billion .2000%
For the next $1 billion .1800
For the next $1 billion .1600
For the next $3 billion .1425
For the next $3 billion .1325
For the next $3 billion .1250
For the next $5 billion .1200
For the next $5 billion .1175
For the next $15 billion .1150
For Managed Assets over $91 billion(2) .1400
================================================================================
(1) The complex-level fee component of the management fee for the funds is
calculated based upon the aggregate Managed Assets ("Managed Assets" means
the average daily net assets of each fund including assets attributable to
all types of leverage used by the Nuveen funds) of Nuveen-sponsored funds
in the U.S.
(2) With respect to the complex-wide Managed Assets over $91 billion, the fee
rate or rates that will apply to such assets will be determined at a later
date. In the unlikely event that complex-wide Managed Assets reach $91
billion prior to a determination of the complex-level fee rate or rates to
be applied to Managed Assets in excess of $91 billion, the complex-level
fee rate for such complex-wide Managed Assets shall be .1400% until such
time as a different rate or rates is determined.
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 their 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.
46
For the first ten years of Arizona Dividend Advantage's (NFZ) operations, the
Adviser has agreed to reimburse the Fund, as a percentage of average daily net
assets (including net assets attributable to Preferred shares), for fees and
expenses in the amounts and for the time periods set forth below:

Reinvest Automatically
Easily and Conveniently
Nuveen makes reinvesting easy. A phone call is all it takes to set up your
reinvestment account.
Nuveen Exchange-Traded Closed-End Funds
Dividend Reinvestment Plan
Your Nuveen Exchange-Traded 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
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. 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 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
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.
Average Effective Maturity: The average of all the maturities of the bonds in a
Fund's portfolio, computed by weighting each maturity date (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.
Leverage-Adjusted 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.
Leverage-adjusted duration takes into account the leveraging process for a Fund
and therefore is longer than the duration of the Fund's portfolio of bonds.
Market Yield (also known as Dividend Yield or Current Yield): An investment's
current annualized dividend divided by its current market price.
Net Asset Value (NAV): A Fund's common share NAV per share is calculated by
subtracting the liabilities of the Fund (including any MuniPreferred shares
issued in order to leverage 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.
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.
