Chairman's
Letter to Shareholders
[PHOTO OF ROBERT P. BREMNER]
DEAR SHAREHOLDER,
The economic environment in which your Fund operates reflects continuing but
uneven economic recovery. The U.S. and other major industrial countries are
experiencing steady but comparatively low levels of economic growth, while
emerging market countries are seeing a resumption of relatively strong economic
expansion. The largest source of economic uncertainty is the potential impact of
steps being considered by many governments to counteract the extraordinary
governmental spending and credit expansion carried out to deal with the
financial and economic crisis of 2008. Consequently, the implications for future
tax rates, government spending, interest rates and the pace of economic recovery
in the U.S. and other leading economies are extremely difficult to predict at
the present time. The long term health of the global economy depends on
restoring some measure of fiscal discipline around the world, but since all of
the corrective steps require economic pain, it is not surprising that
governments are reluctant to undertake them.
In the near term, governments remain committed to furthering economic recovery
and realizing a meaningful reduction in their national unemployment rates. Such
an environment should produce continued economic growth and, consequently,
attractive investment opportunities. Over the longer term, the larger
uncertainty mentioned earlier carries the risk of unexpected potholes in the
road to sustained recovery. For this reason, Nuveen's investment management
teams are working hard to balance return and risk by building well-diversified
portfolios, among other strategies. I encourage you to read the following
commentary on the management of your Fund. As always, I also encourage you to
contact your financial consultant if you have any questions about your Nuveen
Fund investment.
Over the last twelve months, the Nuveen leveraged municipal closed-end funds
continued to make progress in refinancing their auction rate preferred shares
(ARPS). By the fall of 2009, all of the Nuveen taxable closed-end Funds had
completed redemption of their ARPS at par value. As of March 31, 2010,
approximately 40% of the municipal ARPS issued by the Nuveen Funds also had been
redeemed. Please consult the Nuveen web site for the most recent information on
this issue and all recent developments on your Nuveen Funds at: www.nuveen.com.
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

THE TWELVE-MONTH PERFORMANCE OF THE NUVEEN MICHIGAN AND OHIO FUNDS. DAN, WHO
JOINED NUVEEN IN 2000, ASSUMED PORTFOLIO MANAGEMENT RESPONSIBILITY FOR THESE
SEVEN FUNDS IN 2007.
WHAT FACTORS AFFECTED THE U.S. ECONOMIC AND MUNICIPAL MARKET ENVIRONMENTS DURING
THE TWELVE-MONTH REPORTING PERIOD ENDED FEBRUARY 28, 2010?
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, and both the Federal Reserve (Fed) and the federal government continued
their efforts to improve overall economic conditions. The Fed kept the benchmark
fed funds rate in a target range of zero to 0.25% after cutting it to its record
low level in December 2008. In February 2009, the federal government passed a
$787 billion economic stimulus package. At its meeting in March 2010 (after the
close of this reporting period), the Fed pledged to keep the fed funds rate
"exceptionally low" for an "extended period."
In recent months, these and other measures taken by the Fed and the government
to ease the economic recession have produced some incipient signs of
improvement. In the fourth quarter of 2009, the U.S. gross domestic product
(GDP) grew at an annualized rate of 5.6%, the fastest pace in six years. This
was the second quarter in a row that the economy posted positive growth,
following four quarters of contraction. Housing prices also provided a bright
spot between May 2009 and January 2010 by recording nine consecutive months of
positive returns (on a seasonally adjusted basis) after three years of decline.
At the same time, inflation remained relatively tame, as the Consumer Price

Index (CPI) rose 2.1%. The core CPI (which excludes food and energy) rose 1.3%
over the year, within the Fed's unofficial objective of 2.0% or lower for this
measure. Since the recession began in December 2007, the U.S. economy has lost a
total of 8.4 million jobs, the biggest decline since the Great Depression. While
labor markets remained weak, recent months saw a slight improvement. As of
February 2010, the national unemployment rate was 9.7%, up from 8.2% in February
2009 but down from the 26-year high of 10.1% in October 2009.
Municipal market conditions began to show general signs of improvement
throughout most of the period. 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 currently 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. Between
April 2009 and the end of this reporting period, taxable Build America Bonds
issuance totaled $78.2 billion, accounting for 20% of new bonds issued in the
municipal market during that time. Over the twelve months ended February 28,
2010, municipal bond issuance nationwide--both tax-exempt and taxable--totaled
$423.1 billion, an increase of 7.3% compared with the twelve-month period ended
February 28, 2009. Demand for tax-exempt bonds remained strong during this
period and, combined with lower tax-exempt supply, provided support for
municipal bond prices.
HOW WERE THE ECONOMIC AND MARKET ENVIRONMENTS IN MICHIGAN AND OHIO DURING THIS
PERIOD?
Despite slight improvements in selected areas over the past twelve months,
Michigan's state economy continued to rank as one of the weakest in the country.
Michigan's unemployment rate remained the nation's highest, as employment
declined across all sectors except education and health services. Construction,
manufacturing, professional and business services, and information services all
registered double-digit job losses. As of February 2010, Michigan's jobless rate
was 14.1%, up from 12.0% in February 2009. In addition to employment concerns,
Michigan continued to experience declining home values and a high foreclosure
rate, which in turn impacted consumer spending, property taxes, and state and
local revenues. According to the Standard & Poor's (S&P)/Case-Shiller home price
index of 20 major metropolitan areas, housing prices in Detroit fell 7.4% during
the twelve months ended January 2010, compared with a drop of 21.7% for the
twelve months ended January 2009. As of February 2010, Moody's, S&P and Fitch
rated Michigan general obligation (GO) debt at Aa3, AA-, and A+, respectively.
These
Nuveen Investments 3
ratings reflected Fitch's downgrade of Michigan GOs to A+ from AA- in July 2009.
All three rating agencies carried a stable outlook for Michigan GOs. During the
twelve months ended February 28, 2010, municipal issuance in Michigan totaled
$6.3 billion, a decrease of 31% compared with the twelve months ended February
2009.
Ohio continued to rank in the bottom tier of states in terms of economic growth,
with an economy that has contracted since 2006. However, tentative signs suggest
that this trend may be easing to some degree. The housing outlook for the state
has generally improved, as the downturn in home values moderated in recent
months. According to the S&P/Case-Shiller home price index of 20 major
metropolitan areas, housing prices in Cleveland rose 0.2% during the twelve
months ended January 2010, compared with an average decline of 0.7% nationally.
Like Michigan, employment in Ohio remained less diversified than that of the
nation as a whole, with heavier dependence on the manufacturing sector than seen
nationally. As of February 2010, Ohio's unemployment rate was 10.9%, the highest
since September 1983, up from 9.1% in February 2009. While Ohio is relying on
service industries to provide some growth, those industries have been hampered
by slowing population trends. Since 2005, net outmigration from the state has
topped 30,000 each year. As of February 2010, Moody's, S&P and Fitch rated Ohio
general obligation debt at Aa2, AA+, and AA, respectively. These ratings
reflected the June 2009 downgrades to Aa2 from Aa1 by Moody's and to AA from AA+
by Fitch. Moody's listed the outlook for Ohio GOs as stable, while S&P and Fitch
revised their outlooks to negative as of September 2009 and June 2009,
respectively. For the twelve months ended February 28, 2010, municipal issuance
in Ohio totaled $12.3 billion, an increase of approximately 2% compared with the
twelve months ended February 2008.
WHAT KEY STRATEGIES WERE USED TO MANAGE THE MICHIGAN AND OHIO FUNDS DURING THIS
REPORTING PERIOD?
As previously mentioned, the availability of new tax-exempt supply declined
during this period, due in part to the introduction of taxable Build America
Bonds in April 2009. During the twelve months ended February 28, 2010, Build
America Bonds comprised approximately 19% of new municipal supply in Ohio, which
ranked as the seventh largest user of these bonds among the 50 states. In
Michigan, where municipal issuance was already down 31% from the same period a
year earlier, Build America Bonds represented more than 22% of new municipal
supply for the period. Since interest payments from Build America Bonds
represent taxable income, we do not view these bonds as good investment
opportunities for the tax-exempt Michigan and Ohio Funds.
4 Nuveen Investments
Given the constrained supply of new tax-exempt municipal bonds in the primary
market, we turned to the secondary market to find attractive value
opportunities. We continued to take a bottoms-up approach to discovering
undervalued sectors and individual credits with the potential to perform well
over the long term. During this period, all three of the Michigan Funds
purchased uninsured health care bonds as well as general obligation credits
representing issuers in the southeast Michigan corridor. Although we had
previously de-emphasized bonds issued in this area of Michigan due to the
region's economic problems, we believed that, on a risk-adjusted basis, these
bonds now offered good value. For this reason, we selectively added these
credits in sizable amounts for the first time in a long while.
In all four of the Ohio Funds, we purchased uninsured health care bonds.
Tax-exempt supply was usually 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. NXI, NBJ and
NVJ also added an additional dedicated tax bond issued for the Delaware County
library as well as industrial development bonds.
Cash for new purchases during this period was generated largely by maturing or
called bonds. In addition, the Michigan Funds took advantage of opportunities to
sell several issues where we had credit concerns, including bonds issued for a
continuing care retirement center, health care facilities and charter schools.
In the Ohio Funds, we also sold a health care issue due to deteriorating credit.
All of these Funds continued to use inverse floating rate securities.(1) We
employ inverse floaters as a form of leverage for a variety of reasons,
including duration(2) management, income enhancement and total return
enhancement.
(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) 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.

For the twelve months ended February 28, 2010, the total returns on common share
net asset value (NAV) for all of the Michigan Funds exceeded the return for the
Standard & Poor's (S&P) Michigan Municipal Bond Index, all of the Ohio Funds
outperformed the S&P Ohio Municipal Bond Index, and all seven Funds surpassed
the return on the S&P National Municipal Bond Index. NZW outperformed the
average return for the Lipper Michigan Municipal Debt Funds Average, while NUM
and NMP trailed this measure. Among the Ohio Funds, NBJ performed in line with
the Lipper Other States Municipal Debt Funds Average and NUO, NXI and NVJ lagged
the group average. Shareholders should note that the performance of the Lipper
Other States Municipal Debt Funds Average represents the overall average of
returns for funds from ten different states with a wide variety of municipal
market conditions.
Key management factors that influenced the Funds' returns during this period
included yield curve and duration positioning, credit exposure and sector
allocation. In addition, leverage was an important positive factor affecting the
Funds' performances over this period. The impact of leverage is discussed in
more detail on page seven.
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. Overall, duration and yield curve positioning proved positive for
the performances of these Funds, with the exception of NVJ. In general, the
Funds were underexposed to the underperforming

short end of the yield curve and had heavier weightings in the longer part of
the curve, which had a positive impact on performance.
While duration and yield curve positioning played an important role in
performance during this twelve-month period, credit exposure also had a
significant impact. The demand for municipal bonds increased during this period,
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 below and non-rated bonds generally outperformed those rated AAA. In this
environment, the Funds' performances benefited from their allocations of lower
quality credits. Given their underweightings in BBB and non-rated bonds, the
Michigan Funds were more constrained in their opportunities to take advantage of
this environment. However, as a Dividend Advantage Fund, NZW had a heavier
weighting to sub-investment-grade bonds, which boosted its performance for the
twelve months.
Holdings that generally contributed positively to the Fund's performance
included industrial development revenue (IDR) and health care bonds. While the
three Michigan Funds were underweighted in health care, all four Ohio Fund
benefited from overweightings in this sector. Revenue bonds as a whole performed
well, with housing, transportation and public utilities among the sectors also
outperforming the general municipal market for this period. In addition, zero
coupon bonds and lower-rated tobacco bonds were among the strongest performers.
Pre-refunded bonds, which are typically backed by U.S. Treasury securities,
performed especially poorly on a relative basis during this period. The
underperformance of these bonds can be attributed primarily to their shorter
effective maturities and higher credit quality. The Michigan and Ohio Funds were
generally overweighted in pre-refunded bonds, with NUM, NXI and NVJ having the
heaviest exposures and NMP and NBJ the smallest allocations. Many general
obligation and other tax-supported bonds also failed to keep pace with the
overall municipal market, while education, water and sewer, leasing and resource
recovery trailed the other revenue sectors for the twelve months. The Funds
generally had lower weightings in tax-supported bonds than the market as a
whole, which lessened the negative impact from this sector.
IMPACT OF THE FUNDS' LEVERAGE STRATEGIES ON PERFORMANCE
One important factor impacting the returns of these Funds relative to the
comparative indexes was the Funds' use of financial leverage. The Funds use
leverage because their managers believe that, over time, leveraging provides
opportunities for additional income and total returns for common shareholders.
However, use of leverage also can expose common shareholders to additional
volatility. For example, as the prices of securities held by a Fund decline, the
negative impact of these valuation changes on common share net asset value and
common shareholder total return is magnified by the use of leverage. Conversely,
leverage may enhance common share returns during periods when bond prices
generally are rising.
Nuveen Investments 7
Leverage made a significant positive contribution to the performance of these
Funds over this reporting period.
RECENT DEVELOPMENTS REGARDING THE FUNDS' LEVERAGED CAPITAL STRUCTURE
Shortly after their inceptions, each of the Funds issued auction rate preferred
shares (ARPS) to create financial leverage. As noted in the past shareholder
reports, the ARPS issued by many closed-end funds, including these Funds, have
been hampered by a lack of liquidity since February 2008. Since that time, more
ARPS have been submitted for sale in each of their regularly scheduled auctions
than there have been offers to buy. In fact, offers to buy have been almost
completely non-existent since late February 2008. This means that these auctions
have "failed to clear," and that many, or all, of the ARPS shareholders who
wanted to sell their shares in these auctions were unable to do so. This lack of
liquidity in ARPS did not lower the credit quality of these shares, and ARPS
shareholders unable to sell their shares received distributions at the "maximum
rate" applicable to failed auctions, as calculated in accordance with the
pre-established terms of the ARPS. In the recent market, with short-term rates
at multigenerational lows, those maximum rates also have been low.
One continuing implication for common shareholders from the auction failures is
that each Fund's cost of leverage likely has been incrementally higher at times
than it otherwise might have been had the auctions continued to be successful.
As a result, each Fund's common share earnings likely have been incrementally
lower at times than they otherwise might have been.
As noted in past shareholder reports, the Nuveen funds' Board of
Directors/Trustees authorized several methods to refinance a portion of the
Nuveen funds' outstanding ARPS. Some Funds have invested in tender option bonds
(TOBs), also known as floating rate securities. The amount of TOBs that a Fund
may use varies according to the composition of each Fund's portfolio. Some Funds
have a greater ability to use TOBs than others. As of February 28, 2010, some
Funds have issued Variable Rate Demand Preferred Shares (VRDP), but these
issuances have been limited since it has been difficult to find liquidity
providers on economically viable terms given the constrained credit environment.
Some Funds have issued MuniFund Term Preferred Shares (MTP), a fixed-rate form
of preferred stock with a mandatory redemption period of five years.
While all these efforts have reduced the total amount of outstanding ARPS issued
by the Nuveen funds, the Funds cannot provide any assurance on when the
remaining outstanding ARPS might be redeemed.

As of February 28, 2010, the amount of ARPS redeemed by the Funds are as shown
in the accompanying table.

NBJ $2,400,000 10.0%

During January 2010, NZW and NVJ filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (SEC) a registration statement seeking to register MTP. These
registration statements, declared effective by the SEC, enable the Funds to
issue to the public shares of MTP to refinance all or a portion of their ARPS.
The issuance of MTP by these Funds is subject to market conditions. There is no
assurance that these MTP shares will be issued.
Subsequent to the reporting period, NXI and NBJ filed with the SEC a
registration statement seeking to register MTP. These registrations statements,
declared effective by the SEC, are subject to the terms and conditions as noted
in the preceding paragraph.
As of February 28, 2010, 80 out of the 84 Nuveen closed-end municipal funds that
had issued ARPS have redeemed, at par, all or a portion of these shares. These
redemptions bring the total amount of Nuveen's municipal closed-end funds' ARPS
redemptions to approximately $3.0 billion of the original approximately $11.0
billion outstanding.

Common Share Dividend and Share Price Information
During the twelve months ended February 28, 2010, each of the seven Nuveen
Michigan and Ohio Funds had three increases in their monthly dividends. NUO, NXI
and NVJ also had an additional dividend increase that was declared just prior to
the start of this reporting period and took effect in March 2009.
Due to normal portfolio activity, common shareholders of NXI received a net
ordinary income distribution of $0.0094 per share at the beginning of December
2009.
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 February 28, 2010, all of
the Funds in this report had positive UNII balances for both tax and financial
statement purposes.

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including
the portfolios of investments, of Nuveen Michigan Quality Income Municipal Fund,
Inc., Nuveen Michigan Premium Income Municipal Fund, Inc., Nuveen Michigan
Dividend Advantage Municipal Fund, Nuveen Ohio Quality Income Municipal Fund,
Inc., Nuveen Ohio Dividend Advantage Municipal Fund, Nuveen Ohio Dividend
Advantage Municipal Fund 2, and Nuveen Ohio Dividend Advantage Municipal Fund 3
(the Funds) as of February 28, 2010, and the related statements of operations,
changes in net assets, and the financial highlights for each of 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 February 28, 2010, 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 Michigan Quality Income Municipal Fund, Inc., Nuveen Michigan Premium
Income Municipal Fund, Inc., Nuveen Michigan Dividend Advantage Municipal Fund,
Nuveen Ohio Quality Income Municipal Fund, Inc., Nuveen Ohio Dividend Advantage
Municipal Fund, Nuveen Ohio Dividend Advantage Municipal Fund 2, and Nuveen Ohio
Dividend Advantage Municipal Fund 3 at February 28, 2010, and the results of
their operations, the changes in their net assets, and the financial highlights
for each of 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 Common share stock
exchange symbols are Nuveen Michigan Quality Income Municipal Fund, Inc. (NUM),
Nuveen Michigan Premium Income Municipal Fund, Inc. (NMP), Nuveen Michigan
Dividend Advantage Municipal Fund (NZW), Nuveen Ohio Quality Income Municipal
Fund, Inc. (NUO), Nuveen Ohio Dividend Advantage Municipal Fund (NXI), Nuveen
Ohio Dividend Advantage Municipal Fund 2 (NBJ) and Nuveen Ohio Dividend
Advantage Municipal Fund 3 (NVJ) (collectively, the "Funds"). Common shares of
Michigan Quality Income (NUM), Michigan Premium Income (NMP), and Ohio Quality
Income (NUO) are traded on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) while Common
shares of Michigan Dividend Advantage (NZW), Ohio Dividend Advantage (NXI), Ohio
Dividend Advantage 2 (NBJ) and Ohio Dividend Advantage 3 (NVJ) are traded on the
NYSE Amex. 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
designated state income taxes by investing primarily in a portfolio of municipal
obligations issued by state and local government authorities within a single
state or certain U.S. 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.
During the fiscal period ended February 28, 2009, the Board of
Directors/Trustees of the Funds approved a change in the Funds' fiscal and tax
year ends from July 31 to February 28/29.
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. Prices
of forward swap contracts are also provided by an independent pricing service
approved by each Fund's Board of Directors/Trustees. Futures contracts are
valued using the closing settlement price. When market price quotes are not
readily available (which is usually the case for municipal securities), the
pricing service or, in the 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
security 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 February 28, 2010, 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.
68 Nuveen Investments
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 that will enable interest from municipal
securities, which is exempt from regular federal and designated state income
taxes, 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 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 at least 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 US
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. As
of February 28, 2010, the number of Preferred shares outstanding, by Series and
in total, for each Fund is as follows:

| Notes to
| Financial Statements (continued)
Beginning in February 2008, more shares for sale were submitted in the regularly
scheduled auctions for the Preferred shares issued by the Funds than there were
offers to buy. This meant that these auctions "failed to clear," and that many
Preferred shareholders who wanted to sell their shares in these auctions were
unable to do so. Preferred shareholders unable to sell their shares received
distributions at the "maximum rate" applicable to failed auctions as calculated
in accordance with the pre-established terms of the Preferred shares. As of
February 28, 2010, the aggregate amount of outstanding Preferred shares redeemed
by each Fund is as follows:

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 February 28, 2010, each Fund invested in
externally-deposited inverse floaters and/or self-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 recognized as
"Unrealized depreciation on Recourse Trusts" on the Statement of Assets and
Liabilities.
At February 28, 2010, the Funds were not invested in externally-deposited
Recourse Trusts.

FORWARD SWAP CONTRACTS
Each Fund is authorized to enter into forward interest rate swap contracts
consistent with their investment objectives and policies to reduce, increase or
otherwise alter its risk profile or to alter its portfolio characteristics (i.e.
duration, yield curve positioning and credit quality).
Each Fund is subject to interest rate risk in the normal course of pursuing its
investment objectives. Each Fund's use of forward interest rate swap
transactions is intended to help the Fund manage its overall interest rate
sensitivity, either shorter or longer, generally to more closely align the
Fund's interest rate sensitivity with that of the broader municipal market.
Forward interest rate swap transactions involve each Fund's agreement with a
counterparty to pay, in the future, a fixed or variable rate payment in exchange
for the counterparty paying the Fund a variable or fixed 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 swap contract and the termination date of the swap (which is akin to a
bond's maturity). The value of the Fund's swap commitment would increase or
decrease based primarily on the extent to which long-term interest rates for
bonds having a maturity of the swap's termination date increases or decreases.
Forward interest rate swap contracts are valued daily. The net amount recorded
on these transactions for each counterparty is recognized on the Statement of
Assets and Liabilities as "Unrealized appreciation or depreciation on forward
swaps" with the change during the fiscal period recognized on the Statement of
Operations as "Change in net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of forward
swaps."
The Funds may terminate a swap contract prior to the effective date, at which
point a realized gain or loss is 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. Net realized
gains and losses during the fiscal period are recognized on the Statement of
Operations as "Net realized gain (loss) from forward swaps." 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. The Funds did not invest in forward interest rate swap transactions
during the fiscal year ended February 28, 2010.
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.
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 Funds did not invest in futures
contracts during the fiscal year ended February 28, 2010.
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, when applicable. 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
Nuveen Investments 71
| Notes to
| Financial Statements (continued)
Liabilities. Futures contracts, when applicable, 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 Nuveen Asset Management (the "Adviser"), a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Nuveen Investments, Inc. ("Nuveen"), 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.
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.
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 applicable to Common shares from operations during the reporting period.
Actual results may differ from those estimates.
2. 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 February 28, 2010:

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, they are
considered to be non-hedge transactions for financial reporting purposes. The
Funds did not invest in derivative instruments during the fiscal year ended
February 28, 2010.

During January 2010, Michigan Dividend Advantage (NZW) and Ohio Dividend
Advantage 3 (NVJ) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) a
registration statement seeking to register MTP. These registration statements,
declared effective by the SEC, enable the Funds to issue to the public shares of
MTP to refinance all or a portion of their ARPS. The issuance of MTP by these

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 investment
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.

Michigan Dividend Advantage (NZW) elected to defer net realized losses from
investments incurred from November 1, 2009 through February 28, 2010, the Fund's

regulations. Post-October capital losses of $8,448 are treated as having arisen
on the first day of the following fiscal year.
7. MANAGEMENT FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
Each Fund's management fee is separated into two components - a fund-level fee,
based only on the amount of assets within each individual Fund, and a
complex-level fee, based on the aggregate amount of all fund assets managed by
the Adviser. This pricing structure enables each Fund's shareholders to benefit
from growth in the assets within their respective Fund as well as from growth in
the amount of complex-wide assets managed by the Adviser.
78 Nuveen Investments
The annual fund-level fee for each Fund, payable monthly, is calculated
according to the following schedule:
MICHIGAN QUALITY INCOME (NUM)

The annual complex-level fee for each Fund, payable monthly, is calculated
according to the following schedule:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
$55 billion .2000%
$56 billion .1996

$91 billion .1691
$125 billion .1599
$200 billion .1505
$250 billion .1469
$300 billion .1445
================================================================================
* The complex-level fee component of the management fee for the funds is
calculated based upon the aggregate daily managed assets of all Nuveen
funds, with such daily managed 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 fees, daily
managed assets include assets managed by the Adviser that are attributable
to 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 a 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
assets in certain circumstances. As of February 28, 2010, the
complex-level fee rate was .1874%.
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 PRONOUNCEMENTS
ACCOUNTING FOR TRANSFERS OF FINANCIAL ASSETS
During June 2009, 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 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.
80 Nuveen Investments
FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
On January 21, 2010, FASB issued changes to the authoritative guidance under
GAAP for fair value measurements. The objective of this guidance is to provide
guidance on how investment assets and liabilities are to be valued and
disclosed. Specifically, the amendment requires reporting entities to disclose
i) the input and valuation techniques used to measure fair value for both
recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements, for both Level 2 and Level 3
positions, ii) transfers between all levels (including Level 1 and Level 2) on a
gross basis (i.e., transfers out must be disclosed separately from transfers in)
as well as the reason(s) for the transfer and iii) purchases, sales, issuances
and settlements in the Level 3 rollforward must be shown on a gross basis rather
than as one net number. The effective date of the amendment is for interim and
annual periods beginning after December 15, 2009, however, the requirement to
provide the Level 3 activity for purchases, sales, issuances and settlements on
a gross basis will be effective for interim and annual periods beginning after
December 15, 2010. At this time, management is evaluating the implications of
this guidance and the impact it will have to the financial statement amounts and
footnote disclosures, if any.

MUNIFUND TERM PREFERRED SHARES
Subsequent to the reporting period, Ohio Dividend Advantage (NXI) and Ohio
Dividend Advantage 2 (NBJ) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
(the "SEC") a registration statement seeking to register MuniFund Term Preferred
shares ("MTP"). These registration statements, declared effective by the SEC,
enable the Funds to issue to the public shares of MTP to refinance all or a
portion of their Preferred shares. The issuance of MTP by Ohio Dividend
Advantage (NXI) and Ohio Dividend Advantage 2 (NBJ) is subject to market
conditions. There is no assurance that MTP will be issued.

* Rounds to less than $.01 per share.
** Annualized.
+ The amounts shown are based on Common share equivalents.
++ Ratios do not reflect the effect of dividend payments to Preferred
shareholders; Net Investment Income ratios reflect income earned and
expenses incurred on assets attributable to Preferred shares.
(a) 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 Common Share Net Asset Value is the combination of
changes in Common share 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.
(b) After expense reimbursement from the Adviser, where applicable. Expense
ratios do not reflect the reduction of custodian fee credits earned on the
Fund's net cash on deposit with the custodian bank, where applicable.
(c) The expense ratios 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.
(d) For the seven months ended February 28, 2009.

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

used in the calculation. Total returns are not annualized.
Total Return Based on Common Share Net Asset Value is the combination of
changes in Common share net asset value, reinvested dividend income at net
asset value and reinvested capital gains distributions at net asset value,

94 Nuveen Investments
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, including
a majority of the Independent Board Members, considered and approved the
continuation of the advisory agreements (each an "ADVISORY AGREEMENT") between
each Fund and Nuveen Asset Management ("NAM") for an additional one-year period.
In preparation for their considerations at the May Meeting, the Board 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.
In addition, in evaluating 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
Nuveen Investments 95
Annual Investment Management Agreement Approval Process (continued)
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 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
refinancing 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
96 Nuveen Investments
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.
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
Nuveen Investments 97
Annual Investment Management Agreement Approval Process (continued)
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 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 also considered, among other things, the
differences in the use and type of leverage compared to the peers. The
Independent Board Members also considered the differences in the states
reflected in the respective Peer Group. 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
98 Nuveen Investments
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 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.

Annual Investment Management Agreement Approval Process (continued)
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. 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.
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.

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
102 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 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.
104 Nuveen Investments
o 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.
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 common share is calculated by
subtracting the liabilities of the Fund (including any Preferred shares
issued in order to leverage the Fund) from its total assets and then
dividing the remainder by the number of common 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.

ITEM 2. CODE OF ETHICS.
As of the end of the period covered by this report, the registrant has adopted a

(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
registrant has at least one "audit committee financial expert" (as defined in
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

actively involved in the preparation of SCI's financial statements and the
resolution of issues raised in connection therewith. Mr. Evans has also served
on the audit committee of various reporting companies. At such companies, Mr.
Evans was involved in the oversight of audits, audit plans, and the preparation
of financial statements. Mr. Evans also formerly chaired the audit committee of

ITEM 4. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTANT FEES AND SERVICES.
Nuveen Ohio Quality Income Municipal Fund, Inc.
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.
The Audit Committee has delegated certain pre-approval responsibilities to its
Chairman (or, in his absence, any other member of the Audit Committee).

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

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
Daniel J. Close Nuveen Ohio Quality Income Municipal 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:
NUMBER OF
PORTFOLIO MANAGER TYPE OF ACCOUNT MANAGED ACCOUNTS ASSETS*
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Daniel J. Close Registered Investment Company 21 $3.81 billion
Other Pooled Investment Vehicles 0 $ 0
Other Accounts 6 $50.2 million
* Assets are as of February 28, 2010. 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 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 February 28, 2010, the
S&P/Investortools Municipal Bond index was comprised of 54,637 securities with
an aggregate current market value of $1,176 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 lead 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 February 28, 2010, 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.
