Nuveen is a subsidiary, and represents the Asset Management division, of Teachers Insurance and Annuity Association of America (also known as “TIAA”), a leading financial services provider. TIAA constitutes the ultimate principal owner of NFAL. See Item 10. Types of Advisory Services NFAL currently provides management services to Funds, as defined herein. NFAL may also provide management services to other investment vehicles or client types in the future. NFAL typically will engage affiliated or unaffiliated subadvisers (“Subadvisers”) who provide discretionary portfolio management services with respect to the assets allocated to each Subadviser. The allocation of responsibilities between NFAL and the Subadvisers may vary by Fund. For detailed information about a particular Subadviser, please refer to the relevant Subadviser’s Form ADV. Any description of a Subadviser’s services or practices contained herein is qualified in its entirety by the Subadviser’s Form ADV. Certain actions ascribed herein to NFAL may be effectuated by a Subadviser. See also Item 8. NFAL’s services for the Funds generally include product development and management, investment oversight and risk management, and fund administration. NFAL’s specific services vary by Fund. In providing Fund management services to the Funds, NFAL is involved in new product development and ongoing coordination of Fund management activities. For most Funds, NFAL conducts ongoing monitoring of the Fund and the relevant Subadviser’s services, including evaluation and analysis of performance and portfolio characteristics, and provides regular reporting to NFAL’s clients, typically the relevant Fund’s governing body (e.g., board of directors/trustees). For certain multi-asset class or multi-manager Funds, NFAL sets asset allocation targets and ranges, and re-allocates assets among asset classes and/or Subadvisers as a result of market movements, asset flows, the need to raise cash for share dividends and distributions, and other factors. For Funds with leverage, NFAL sets various parameters with respect to a Fund’s structural or effective leverage, which may include target levels, ranges and/or upper boundaries; provides ongoing leverage monitoring and oversight; and in certain cases, assists with or directs implementation. NFAL provides ongoing risk

management services for Funds, with an emphasis on the identification and quantification of risk factors, the impact of the use of derivatives, and counterparty exposures. NFAL helps oversee the valuation of portfolio securities, and makes or assists in fair valuation determinations for certain Fund portfolio securities for which a fair market value is not readily available or reliable. NFAL serves as evaluator and supervisor of unit investment trusts (“UITs”) for which its affiliated broker-dealer, Nuveen Securities, LLC (“Nuveen Securities”) serves as sponsor. As evaluator, NFAL causes the securities in the portfolios to be valued upon initial deposit; causes the determination of the purchase and redemption value for the UIT units; and is also responsible for the dissemination of daily pricing and posting pricing to Nuveen’s UIT website. As supervisor, NFAL provides ongoing monitoring of securities held in the UIT portfolios for material negative credit events or certain corporate actions which may result in the supervisor advising the UIT Trustee to remove a security from a UIT portfolio. NFAL may oversee a Fund’s utilization of residual cash management programs and vehicles, which are typically associated with the relevant Fund custodian. NFAL is also involved in fund administration, which may include preparing or assisting in the preparation of shareholder reports or other financial information; preparing or verifying Fund characteristics for internal or external purposes; and providing oversight and coordination among Fund service providers (e.g., custodians, transfer agents, administrators and auditors). NFAL or its related persons providing management or other services to a Fund generally receive advisory, administration, co-administration and/or distribution fees from the Fund and/or from investment advisers to the Fund. Fund investors should carefully review the Funds’ prospectuses or other offering documents for more detailed information regarding services NFAL provides to a Fund. Certain of the foregoing activities are provided in consultation with and/or under the oversight or direction of the relevant Fund’s governing body (e.g., board of directors). See also Item 13. Certain accounts for which NFAL provides fund management services may employ the use of commodity interests (e.g., futures, options on futures and swaps) and may be deemed to be commodity pools. NFAL has registered as a commodity pool operator (“CPO”) with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (“CFTC”). Subadvisers that provide direct advice with respect to commodity interests are registered with the CFTC as a commodity trading advisor or operate under an exemption or exclusion from registration. For detailed information about a particular Subadviser, please refer to the relevant Subadviser’s Form ADV. Investment Restrictions NFAL provides Fund management services based upon the investment objectives, goals and restrictions set forth in a Fund’s prospectus or other offering materials, and the governance and operational needs of the Fund. Assets Under Management As of December 31, 2018, NFAL’s discretionary assets under management (AUM) were approximately $135.3 billion.
