INVESTMENT ADVISER NAME CHANGE

Effective January 1, 2011, Nuveen Asset Management, the Funds’ investment adviser, changed its name to Nuveen Fund Advisors, Inc. (“Nuveen Fund Advisors”). Concurrently, Nuveen Fund Advisors formed a wholly-owned subsidiary, Nuveen Asset Management, LLC, to house its portfolio management capabilities.

NUVEEN INVESTMENTS COMPLETES STRATEGIC COMBINATION WITH FAF ADVISORS

On December 31, 2010, Nuveen Investments completed the strategic combination between Nuveen Asset Management, LLC, the largest investment affiliate of Nuveen Investments, and FAF Advisors. As part of this transaction, U.S. Bancorp – the parent of FAF Advisors – received cash consideration and a 9.5% stake in Nuveen Investments in exchange for the long term investment business of FAF Advisors, including investment management responsibilities for the non-money market mutual funds of the First American Funds family.

The approximately $27 billion of mutual fund and institutional assets managed by FAF Advisors, along with the investment professionals managing these assets and other key personnel, have become part of Nuveen Asset Management, LLC. With these additions to Nuveen Asset Management, LLC, this affiliate now manages more than $100 billion of assets across a broad range of strategies from municipal and taxable fixed income to traditional and specialized equity investments.

This combination does not affect the investment objectives or strategies of the Funds in this report. Over time, Nuveen Investments expects that the combination will provide even more ways to meet the needs of investors who work with financial advisors and consultants by enhancing the multi-boutique model of Nuveen Investments, which also includes highly respected investment teams at HydePark, NWQ Investment Management, Santa Barbara Asset Management, Symphony Asset Management, Tradewinds Global Investors and Winslow Capital. Nuveen Investments managed approximately $206 billion of assets as of March 31, 2011.

Letter to Shareholders

Dear Shareholders,

In 2010, the global economy recorded another year of recovery from the financial and economic crises of 2008, but many of the factors that caused the downturn still weigh on the prospects for continued improvement. In the U.S., ongoing weakness in housing values has put pressure on homeowners and mortgage lenders. Similarly, the strong earnings recovery for corporations and banks is only slowly being translated into increased hiring or more active lending. Globally, deleveraging by private and public borrowers has inhibited economic growth and that process is far from complete.

Encouragingly, constructive actions are being taken by governments around the world to deal with economic issues. In the U.S., the recent passage of a stimulatory tax bill relieved some of the pressure on the Federal Reserve to promote economic expansion through quantitative easing and offers the promise of sustained economic growth. A number of European governments are undertaking programs that could significantly reduce their budget deficits. Governments across the emerging markets are implementing various steps to deal with global capital flows without undermining international trade and investment.

The success of these government actions could determine whether 2011 brings further economic recovery and financial market progress. One risk associated with the extraordinary efforts to strengthen U.S. economic growth is that the debt of the U.S. government will continue to grow to unprecedented levels. Another risk is that over time there could be inflationary pressures on asset values in the U.S. and abroad, because what happens in the U.S. impacts the rest of the world economy. Also, these various actions are being taken in a setting of heightened global economic uncertainty, primarily about the supplies of energy and other critical commodities. In this challenging environment, your Nuveen investment team continues to seek sustainable investment opportunities and to remain alert to potential risks in a recovery still facing many headwinds. On your behalf, we monitor their activities to assure they maintain their investment disciplines.

As you will note elsewhere in this report, on December 31, 2010, Nuveen Investments completed a strategic combination with FAF Advisors, Inc., the manager of the First American Funds. The combination adds highly respected and distinct investment teams to meet the needs of investors and their advisors and is designed to benefit all fund shareholders by creating a fund organization with the potential for further economies of scale and the ability to draw from even greater talent and expertise to meet those investor needs.

As of the end of April, 2011, Nuveen Investments had completed the refinancing of all of the Auction Rate Preferred Securities issued by its taxable closed-end funds and 89% of the MuniPreferred shares issued by its tax-exempt closed-end funds. Please consult the Nuveen Investments web site, www.Nuveen.com, for the current status of this important refinancing program.

As always, I encourage you to contact your financial consultant if you have any questions about your investment in a Nuveen Fund. On behalf of the other members of your Fund Board, we look forward to continuing to earn your trust in the months and years ahead.

Sincerely,

Robert P. Bremner

Nuveen New York Dividend Advantage Municipal Fund (NAN)

Nuveen New York Dividend Advantage Municipal Fund 2 (NXK)

Portfolio manager Scott Romans discusses key investment strategies and the six-month performance of the Nuveen New York Funds. Scott, who joined Nuveen in 2000, assumed portfolio management responsibility for these five New York Funds in January 2011 from Cathryn Steeves, who managed NNY, NNP, NAN and NXK from 2006 to December 2010 and NYV from its inception in 2009 to December 2010.

What key strategies were used to manage the New York Funds during the six-month reporting period ended March 31, 2011?

After rallying through most of 2010, municipal bond prices declined during this six-month period, impacted by investor concerns about inflation, the federal deficit, and the deficit’s impact on demand for U.S. Treasuries. Adding to this situation was media coverage of the strained finances of many state and local governments. As a result, money began to flow out of municipal funds, yields rose and valuations declined. Toward the end of this period, we saw the environment in the municipal market improve, as crossover buyers were attracted by municipal bond prices and tax-exempt yields, resulting in decreased outflows, declining yields, and rising valuations.

The municipal bond market also was affected by a significant decline in new tax-exempt issuance during this period. One reason for this decrease was the heavy issuance of taxable municipal debt under the Build America Bond (BAB) program, which was created as part of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of February 2009 and which expired December 31, 2010. During the fourth quarter of 2010, taxable Build America Bonds issuance nationwide totaled $44.1 billion, accounting for 33% of new bonds in the municipal market. This program also meaningfully impacted the availability of tax-exempt bonds in New York, which ranked second (after California) in terms of dollar amount of BABs issued during this period. For the three months ended December 31, 2010, taxable Build America Bond issuance in New York totaled $5.7 billion, representing approximately 37% of new bonds issued in the municipal marketplace. Since interest payments from Build America Bonds represent taxable income, we did not view these bonds as good investment opportunities for these Funds. Further compounding the supply situation was the decline in new municipal issuance during the

first three months of 2011, when issuance in New York declined 16% from that of the same period in 2010.

Because of the constrained issuance of tax-exempt municipal bonds, much of our investment activity during the period was opportunistic. We continued to take a bottom-up approach to discovering undervalued sectors and individual credits with the potential to perform well over the long-term. During this period, the Funds focused on purchasing bonds rated AAA and AA from some of the state’s larger issuers. We also found value in lower-rated airports, health care and education bonds, including universities and charter schools, purchased in both the primary and secondary markets. During the last three months of 2010, some of our investment activity resulted from opportunities created by the provisions of the Build America Bond program. For example, tax-exempt supply was more plentiful in the health care and higher education sectors because, as 501(c)(3) (nonprofit) organizations, hospitals and private universities generally did not qualify for the Build America Bond program and continued to issue bonds in the tax-exempt municipal market.

Cash for new purchases during this period was generated primarily by the proceeds from bond calls and maturing bonds, which we worked to redeploy to keep the Funds fully invested. The Funds also sold a few holdings during this period, but overall, selling was very minimal because of the difficulty in finding suitable replacement securities.

As of March 31, 2011, all five Funds continued to use inverse floating rate securities. We employ inverse floaters as a form of leverage for a variety of reasons, including duration management, income enhancement and total return enhancement.

1 NNY and NYV are unleveraged Funds; the remaining three Funds in this report use structural leverage.
2 The Standard & Poor’s (S&P) New York Municipal Bond Index is an unleveraged, market value-weighted index designed to measure the performance of the tax-exempt, investment-grade New York municipal bond market. This index does not reflect any initial or ongoing expenses and is not available for direct investment.

This index does not reflect any initial or ongoing expenses and is not available for direct investment.
4 The Lipper New York Municipal Debt Funds Average is calculated using the returns of all leveraged and unleveraged closed-end funds in this category for each period as follows: 6-month, 17 funds; 1-year, 17 funds; 5-year, 17 funds; and 10-year, 6 funds. Lipper returns account for the effects of management fees and assume reinvestment of dividends, but do not reflect any applicable sales charges.

For the six months ended March 31, 2011, the cumulative return on common share net asset value (NAV) for NNY exceeded the returns for the Standard & Poor’s (S&P) New York Municipal Bond Index and the Standard & Poor’s (S&P) National Municipal Bond Index, while the other four Funds underperformed these two S&P indexes. All five of the New York Funds outperformed the average return for the Lipper New York Municipal Debt Funds Average.

Key management factors that influenced the Funds’ returns during this period included duration and yield curve positioning, credit exposure and sector allocation. The use of structural leverage also factored into the performances of NNP, NAN and NXK. (NNY and NYV do not use structural leverage.) Leverage is discussed in more detail on page eight.

During this period, municipal bonds with shorter maturities generally outperformed other maturity categories, with credits at the longest end of the curve posting the weakest returns. Among these five Funds, NNY was the most advantageously positioned in terms of duration and yield curve positioning, with more exposure to the outperforming shorter part of the yield curve. NYV, on the other hand, had the longest duration among these five Funds, typical for a newer Fund more recently invested in long-term bonds. Its greater exposure to the underperforming long part of the curve detracted from NYV’s performance for this period. During the current period, NYV also entered into forward interest rate swap transactions to help reduce the duration of its portfolio. Overall, duration and yield curve positioning was a neutral factor in the performance of NNP and NXK and a modest negative in NAN.

Credit exposure also played an important role in performance. During the market reversal of late 2010, as the redemption activity in high-yield funds increased, lower-rated credits were negatively impacted. For the period as a whole, bonds rated BBB typically underperformed those rated AAA. All of these Funds tended to be overweighted in bonds rated BBB, which hurt their performance, with NYV having the heaviest exposure to BBB rated bonds among these Funds.

Overall, sector allocation had the most significant impact on the performance of every Fund except NYV. Holdings that generally helped the Funds’ returns included resource recovery bonds, housing credits, and general obligation and other tax-supported bonds. The health care sector of the New York market also was a modest outperformer. In general, these Funds tended to be overweighted in housing and health care bonds, which enhanced their returns. In addition, pre-refunded bonds, which are often backed by U.S. Treasury securities, were among the stronger performers during this period, primarily due to their shorter effective maturities and higher credit quality. As of March 31, 2011, NNP had the largest allocation of pre-refunded bonds among these five Funds, which benefited its performance.

Nuveen Investments 7

In contrast, the industrial development revenue (IDR), transportation, and “other revenue” sectors turned in relatively weaker performance, and tobacco credits and zero coupon bonds were among the poorest performers. The insured segment also failed to keep pace with the general municipal market return for the six months. These Funds were generally underweighted in transportation and “other revenue,” which lessened the negative impact of these sectors.

IMPACT OF THE FUNDS’ LEVERAGE STRATEGIES ON PERFORMANCE

One important factor impacting the returns of NNP, NAN and NXK relative to the comparative indexes was these Funds’ use of structural leverage . As mentioned previously, NNY and NYV do not use structural leverage. The Funds use leverage because their managers believe that, over time, leveraging provides opportunities for additional income and total return 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. This is what happened in these Funds during the period, and the use of structural leverage hurt their overall performance.

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS REGARDING THE FUNDS’ REDEMPTION OF AUCTION RATE PREFERRED SHARES

Shortly after their respective inception, each of the Funds (except NNY and NYV) issued auction rate preferred shares (ARPS) to create structural leverage. As noted in 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 nonexistent 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 continued to receive 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

8 Nuveen Investments

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 that can be used separately or in combination to refinance a portion of the Nuveen funds’ outstanding ARPS. Some funds have utilized tender option bonds (TOBs), also known as inverse floating rate securities, for leverage purposes. 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. Some funds have issued Variable Rate Demand Preferred (VRDP) Shares as well as Variable MuniFund Term Preferred (VMTP) Shares, which are a floating rate form of preferred stock with a mandatory term redemption. Some funds have issued MuniFund Term Preferred (MTP) Shares, a fixed rate form of preferred stock with a mandatory redemption period of three to 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.

During 2010 and 2011, certain Nuveen leveraged closed-end funds (including NNP) received a demand letter from a law firm on behalf of purported holders of common shares of each such fund, alleging that Nuveen and the funds’ officers and Board of Directors/Trustees breached their fiduciary duties related to the redemption at par of the funds’ ARPS. In response, the Board established an ad hoc Demand Committee consisting of certain of its disinterested and independent Board members to investigate the claims. The Demand Committee retained independent counsel to assist it in conducting an extensive investigation. Based upon its investigation, the Demand Committee found that it was not in the best interests of each fund or its shareholders to take the actions suggested in the demand letters, and recommended that the full Board reject the demands made in the demand letters. After reviewing the findings and recommendation of the Demand Committee, the full Board of each fund unanimously adopted the Demand Committee’s recommendation.

Subsequently, the funds that received demand letters (including NNP, NAN and NXK) were named in a consolidated complaint as nominal defendants in a putative shareholder derivative action captioned Martin Safier, et al. v. Nuveen Asset Management , et al. that was filed in the Circuit Court of Cook County, Illinois, Chancery Division (the “Cook County Chancery Court”) on February 18, 2011 (the “Complaint”). The Complaint, filed on behalf of purported holders of each fund’s common shares, also name Nuveen Fund Advisors, Inc. as a defendant, together with current and former Officers and interested Director/Trustees of each of the funds (together with the nominal defendants,

Nuveen Investments 9

collectively, the “Defendants”). The Complaint contains the same basic allegations contained in the demand letters. The suits seek a declaration that the Defendants have breached their fiduciary duties, an order directing the Defendants not to redeem any ARPS at their liquidation value using fund assets, indeterminate monetary damages in favor of the funds and an award of plaintiffs’ costs and disbursements in pursuing the action. Nuveen Fund Advisors, Inc. believes that the Complaint is without merit, and is defending vigorously against these charges.

As of March 31, 2011, NNP, NAN and NXK have redeemed all of their outstanding ARPS at par.

As noted in previous shareholder reports, and as of March 31, 2011, the following Funds have issued and outstanding MTP Shares, at liquidation value, as shown in the accompanying table.

MTP Shares at
Fund Liquidation Value
NAN 55,360,000
NXK 37,890,000

During the current period, NAN completed the issuance of an additional $25,360,000 2.50%, Series 2016 MTP. The net proceeds from this offering were used to refinance the Fund’s outstanding ARPS at par. The newly-issued MTP shares trade on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “NAN PrD.” These MTP shares are included in the total amount of MTP shares outstanding in the preceding table.

VRDP

As noted in previous shareholder reports, NNP has issued and outstanding $89.0 million of VRDP.

(Refer to Notes to Financial Statements, Footnote 1 – General Information and Significant Accounting Policies and Footnote 4 – Fund Shares for further details on MTP and VRDP Shares.)

At the time this report was prepared, all 84 of the 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 $8.8 billion of the approximately $11.0 billion originally outstanding.

Regulatory Matter

During May 2011, Nuveen Securities, LLC (Nuveen) entered into a settlement with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) with respect to certain allegations regarding Nuveen-sponsored closed-end fund Auction Rate Preferred Securities (ARPS) marketing brochures. As part of this settlement, Nuveen neither admitted to nor denied FINRA’s allegations. Nuveen is the broker-dealer subsidiary of Nuveen Investments, Inc.

The settlement with FINRA concludes an investigation that followed the widespread failure of auctions for ARPS and other auction rate securities, which generally began in mid-February 2008. In the settlement, FINRA alleged that certain marketing materials provided by Nuveen were false and misleading. Nuveen agreed to a censure and the payment of a $3 million fine.

Common Share Dividend

and Share Price Information

The dividends of NNY, NYV, NNP, NAN and NXK remained stable throughout the six-month period ended March 31, 2011.

Due to normal portfolio activity, common shareholders of the following Funds received capital gains distributions in December 2010 as follows:

Long-Term Capital Gains
Fund (per share)
NNY $0.0062
NNP $0.0128
NAN $0.0344

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 March 31, 2011, all of the Funds in this report had positive UNII balances, based upon our best estimates, for tax purposes and positive UNII balances for financial reporting purposes.

COMMON SHARE REPURCHASES AND SHARE PRICE INFORMATION

As of March 31, 2011, and since the inception of the Funds’ repurchase program, the Funds have cumulatively repurchased and retired their common shares as shown in the accompanying table. NNY, NYV and NAN have not repurchased any of their common shares since the inception of their repurchase programs.

(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) Ratios do not reflect the effect 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, where applicable, as described in Footnote 1 – General Information and Significant Accounting Policies,
Inverse Floating Rate Securities.
(d) For the period April 28, 2009 (commencement of operations) through September 30, 2009.
(e) For the six months ended March 31, 2011.

  1. General Information and Significant Accounting Policies

General Information

The funds covered in this report and their corresponding Common share stock exchange symbols are Nuveen New York Municipal Value Fund, Inc. (NNY), Nuveen New York Municipal Value Fund 2 (NYV), Nuveen New York Performance Plus Municipal Fund, Inc. (NNP), Nuveen New York Dividend Advantage Municipal Fund (NAN) and Nuveen New York Dividend Advantage Municipal Fund 2 (NXK) (collectively, the “Funds”). Common shares of New York Value (NNY), New York Performance Plus (NNP) and New York Dividend Advantage (NAN) are traded on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) while Common shares of New York Value 2 (NYV) and New York Dividend Advantage 2 (NXK) are traded on the NYSE Amex. The Funds are registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as closed-end registered investment companies.

Effective January 1, 2011, the Funds’ adviser, Nuveen Asset Management, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Nuveen Investments, Inc. (“Nuveen”), changed its name to Nuveen Fund Advisors, Inc. (the “Adviser”). Concurrently, the Adviser formed a wholly-owned subsidiary, Nuveen Asset Management, LLC (the “Sub-Adviser”), to house its portfolio management capabilities and to serve as the Funds’ sub-adviser, and the Funds’ portfolio manager became an employee of the Sub-Adviser. This allocation of responsibilities between the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser affects each of the Funds. The Adviser will compensate the Sub-Adviser for the portfolio management services it provides to the Funds from each Fund’s management fee.

Each Fund seeks to provide current income exempt from both regular federal and New York state income taxes by investing primarily in a portfolio of municipal obligations issued by state and local government authorities within the state of New York or certain U.S. territories.

Significant Accounting Policies

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Funds in the preparation of their financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”).

Investment Valuation

Prices of municipal bonds and forward swap contracts are provided by a pricing service approved by the Funds’ Board of Directors/Trustees. These securities are generally classified as Level 2 for fair value measurement purposes. When price quotes are not readily available (which is usually the case for municipal bonds) the pricing service establishes a security’s fair value using methods that may include consideration of the following: 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. In pricing certain securities, particularly less liquid and lower quality securities, the pricing service may consider information about a security, its issuer, or market activity provided by the Adviser. These securities are generally classified as Level 2 or Level 3 depending on the priority of the significant inputs.

Certain securities may not be able to be priced by the pre-established pricing methods as described above. Such securities may be valued by the Funds’ Board of Directors/Trustees or its designee at fair value. These securities generally include, but are not limited to, restricted securities (securities which may not be publicly sold without registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended) for which a pricing service is unable to provide a market price; securities whose trading has been formally suspended; debt securities that have gone into default and for which there is no current market quotation; a security whose market price is not available from a pre-established pricing source; a security with respect to which an event has occurred that is likely to materially affect the value of the security after the market has closed but before the calculation of a Fund’s net asset value (as may be the case in non-U.S. markets on which the security is primarily traded) or make it difficult or impossible to obtain a reliable market quotation; and a security whose price, as provided by the pricing service, is not deemed to reflect the security’s fair value. As a general principle, the fair value of a security would appear to be the amount that the owner might reasonably expect to receive for it in a current sale. A variety of factors may be considered in determining the fair value of these securities, which may include consideration of the following: 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. These securities are generally classified as Level 2 or Level 3 depending on the priority of the significant inputs. Regardless of the method employed to value a particular security, all valuations are subject to review by the Funds’ Board of Directors/Trustees or its designee.

Refer to Footnote 2 – Fair Value Measurements for further details on the leveling of securities held by the Funds as of the end of the reporting period.

Investment Transactions

Investment transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Realized gains and losses from transactions are determined on the specific identification method, which is the same basis used for federal income tax purposes. 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 March 31, 2011, there were no such outstanding purchase commitments in any of the Funds.

Investment Income

Investment income, which reflects the amortization of premiums and includes accretion of discounts for financial reporting purposes, is recorded on an accrual basis. Investment income also reflects paydown gains and losses, if any.

Income Taxes

Each Fund is a separate taxpayer for federal income tax purposes. Each Fund intends to distribute substantially all of its net investment income and net capital gains to shareholders and to otherwise comply with the requirements of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required. Furthermore, each Fund intends to satisfy conditions that will enable interest from municipal securities, which is exempt from regular federal and New York 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 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 net investment income, net realized capital gains and/or market discount, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The amount and timing of distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from U.S. GAAP.

Auction Rate Preferred Shares

Each Fund except New York Value (NNY) and New York Value 2 (NYV) is authorized to issue Auction Rate Preferred Shares (“ARPS”). During the six months ended March 31, 2011, the Funds had outstanding ARPS, $25,000 stated value per share, which approximates market value, as a means of effecting financial leverage. Each Fund’s ARPS was issued in more than one Series. The dividend rate paid by the Funds on each Series was determined every seven days, pursuant to a dutch auction process overseen by the auction agent, and was payable at the end of each rate period.

Beginning in February 2008, more shares for sale were submitted in the regularly scheduled auctions for the ARPS issued by the Funds than there were offers to buy. This meant that these auctions “failed to clear,” and that many ARPS shareholders who wanted to sell their shares in these auctions were unable to do so. 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. As of March 31, 2011, each Fund redeemed all of their outstanding ARPS, at liquidation value, as follows:

New York New York New York
Performance Dividend Dividend
Plus Advantage Advantage 2
(NNP) (NAN) (NXK)
ARPS redeemed, at liquidation value $124,300,000 $69,000,000 $47,000,000

During the fiscal year ended September 30, 2010, lawsuits pursuing claims made in the demand letter alleging that New York Performance Plus’ (NNP) Board of Trustees breached their fiduciary duties related to the redemption at par of its ARPS had been filed on behalf of shareholders of New York Performance Plus (NNP), against the Adviser, the Nuveen holding company, the majority owner of the holding company, the lone interested trustee, and current and former officers of New York Performance Plus (NNP). Nuveen and the other named defendants believe these lawsuits to be without merit, and all named parties intend to defend themselves vigorously. New York Performance Plus (NNP) believes that these lawsuits will not have a material effect on it or on the Adviser’s ability to serve as investment adviser to it.

MuniFund Term Preferred Shares

The following Funds have issued and outstanding MuniFund Term Preferred (“MTP”) Shares, with a $10 stated value per share. Proceeds from the issuance of MTP Shares, net of offering expenses, were used to redeem all, or a portion of, each Fund’s outstanding ARPS. Each Fund’s MTP Shares are issued in one or more Series. Dividends, which are recognized as interest expense for financial reporting purposes, are paid monthly at a fixed annual rate, subject to adjustments in certain circumstances. The MTP Shares trade on the NYSE. As of March 31, 2011, the number of MTP Shares outstanding, annual interest rate and the NYSE “ticker” symbol for each Fund are as follows:

New York Dividend Advantage (NAN)
Annual Annual
Shares Interest NYSE Shares Interest NYSE
Outstanding Rate Ticker Outstanding Rate Ticker
Series:

2016 2,536,000 2.50% NAN Pr D

Each Fund is obligated to redeem its MTP Shares by the date as specified in its offering document (“Term Redemption Date”), unless earlier redeemed or repurchased by the Fund. MTP Shares are subject to optional and mandatory redemption in certain circumstances. MTP Shares will be subject to redemption at the option of each Fund (“Optional Redemption Date”), subject to a payment of premium for one year following the Optional Redemption Date (“Premium Expiration Date”), and at par thereafter. MTP Shares also will be subject to redemption, at the option of each Fund, at par in the event of certain changes in the credit rating of the MTP Shares. Each Fund may be obligated to redeem certain of the MTP Shares if the Fund fails to maintain certain asset coverage and leverage ratio requirements and such failures are not cured by the applicable cure date. The redemption price per share is equal to the sum of the liquidation value per share plus any accumulated but unpaid dividends. The Term Redemption Date, Optional Redemption Date and Premium Expiration Date for each Fund’s MTP Shares are as follows:

New York New York New York
Dividend Dividend Dividend
Advantage Advantage Advantage 2
(NAN) (NAN) (NXK)
Series 2015 Series 2016 Series 2015

Premium Expiration Date December 3, 2011 December 31, 2011 April 30, 2012

The average liquidation value of all series of MTP Shares outstanding for each Fund during the six months ended March 31, 2011, was as follows:

New York New York
Dividend Dividend
Advantage Advantage 2
(NAN) (NXK)
Average liquidation value of MTP Shares outstanding $45,034,225 $37,890,000

For financial reporting purposes only, the liquidation value of MTP Shares is recorded as a liability on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Unpaid dividends on MTP Shares are recognized as a component of “Interest payable” on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Dividends paid on MTP Shares are recognized as a component of “Interest expense and amortization of offering costs” on the Statement of Operations.

Net amounts earned by Nuveen as underwriter of each Fund’s MTP Share offering are recorded as reductions of offering costs recognized by the Funds. During the six months ended March 31, 2011, there was no amounts earned by New York Dividend Advantage (NAN) and New York Dividend Advantage 2 (NXK).

Variable Rate Demand Preferred Shares

New York Performance Plus (NNP) has issued and outstanding 890 Series 1 Variable Rate Demand Preferred (“VRDP”) Shares, with a maturity date of March 1, 2040 and a $100,000 liquidation value per share. The Fund issued its VRDP Shares in a privately negotiated offering in March 2010. Proceeds of the Fund’s offering were used to redeem all of the Fund’s outstanding ARPS. The VRDP Shares were offered to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933.

VRDP Shares include a liquidity feature that allows VRDP shareholders to have their shares purchased by a liquidity provider with whom the Fund has contracted in the event that purchase orders for VRDP Shares in a remarketing are not sufficient in number to be matched with the sale orders in that remarketing. The Fund is required to redeem any VRDP Shares that are still owned by the liquidity provider after six months of continuous, unsuccessful remarketing.

Dividends on the VRDP Shares (which are treated as interest payments for financial reporting purposes) are set weekly at a rate established by a remarketing agent; therefore, the market value of the VRDP Shares is expected to approximate its liquidation value. If remarketings for VRDP Shares

64 Nuveen Investments

EFPlaceholder

are continuously unsuccessful for six months, the maximum rate is designed to escalate according to a specified schedule in order to enhance the remarketing agent’s ability to successfully remarket the VRDP Shares.

Subject to certain conditions, VRDP Shares may be redeemed, in whole or in part, at any time at the option of the Fund. The Fund may also redeem certain of the VRDP Shares if the Fund fails to maintain certain asset coverage requirements and such failures are not cured by the applicable cure date. The redemption price per share is equal to the sum of the liquidation value per share plus any accumulated but unpaid dividends.

New York Performance Plus (NNP) had all $89,000,000 of its VRDP Shares outstanding during the six months ended March 31, 2011, with an annualized dividend rate of 0.45%.

For financial reporting purposes only, the liquidation value of VRDP Shares is recognized as a liability on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Unpaid dividends on VRDP Shares are recognized as a component of “Interest payable” on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Dividends paid on the VRDP Shares are recognized as a component of “Interest expense and amortization of offering costs” on the Statement of Operations. In addition to interest expense, each Fund also pays a per annum liquidity fee to the liquidity provider, which is recognized as “Liquidity fees on VRDP shares” on the Statement of Operations.

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 the related interest paid to the holders of the short-term floating rate certificates as a component of “Interest expense and amortization of offering costs” on the Statement of Operations.

During the six months ended March 31, 2011, 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 March 31, 2011, each Fund’s maximum exposure to externally-deposited Recourse Trusts, was as follows: New York New York New York

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 market. Forward interest rate swap transactions involve a Fund’s agreement with a counterparty to pay, in the future, a fixed or variable rate payment in exchange for the counterparty paying a 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 a 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 a component of “Unrealized appreciation or depreciation on forward swaps” with the change during the fiscal period recognized on the Statement of Operations as a component of “Change in net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of forward swaps.”

Each Fund 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 a component of “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.

During the six months ended March 31, 2011, New York Value 2 (NYV) entered into forward swap transactions to reduce the duration of the Fund’s portfolio. The average notional amount of forward interest rate swap contracts outstanding during the six months ended March 31, 2011 was as follows:

New York
Value 2
(NYV)
Average notional amount of forward interest rate swap contracts outstanding* $2,500,000
  • The average notional amount is calculated based on the outstanding notional at the beginning of the fiscal year and at the end of each fiscal quarter within the current fiscal year.

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 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 the Adviser believes have the financial resources to honor their obligations and by having the Adviser monitor the financial stability of the counterparties. Additionally, counterparties may be required to pledge collateral daily (based on the daily valuation of the financial asset) on behalf of each Fund with a value approximately equal to the amount of any unrealized gain above a pre-determined threshold. Reciprocally, when each Fund has an unrealized loss, the Funds have instructed the custodian to pledge assets of the Funds as collateral with a value approximately equal to the amount of the unrealized loss above a pre-determined threshold. Collateral pledges are monitored and subsequently adjusted if and when the valuations fluctuate, either up or down, by at least the predetermined threshold amount.

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. The market prices of zero coupon securities generally are more volatile than the market prices of securities that pay interest periodically.

Offering Costs

Costs incurred by New York Performance Plus (NNP) in connection with its offering of VRDP Shares ($1,320,000) were recorded as a deferred charge, which are being amortized over the life of the shares. Cost incurred by New York Dividend Advantage (NAN) and New York Dividend Advantage 2 (NXK) in connection with their offering of MTP Shares ($1,425,400 and $783,350, respectively) were recorded as a deferred charge, which are being amortized over the life of the shares. Each Fund’s amortized deferred charges are recognized as a component of “Interest expense and amortization of offering costs” on the Statement of Operations.

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 U.S. GAAP 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.

  1. Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is defined as the price that the Funds would receive upon selling an investment or transferring a liability in an orderly transaction to an independent buyer in the principal or most advantageous market of the investment. A three-tier hierarchy is used to maximize the use of observable market data and minimize the use of unobservable inputs and to establish classification of fair value measurements for disclosure purposes. Observable inputs reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Observable inputs are based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity. Unobservable inputs reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Unobservable inputs are based on the best information available in the circumstances. The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is 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 methodologies 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 March 31, 2011:

  1. Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

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 not considered to be hedge transactions for financial reporting purposes. For additional information on the derivative instruments in which each Fund was invested during and at the end of the reporting period, refer to the Portfolios of Investments, Financial Statements and Footnote 1 - General Information and Significant Accounting Policies.

The following table presents the fair value of all derivative instruments held by the Funds as of March 31, 2011, the location of these instruments on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities, and the primary underlying risk exposure.

  1. 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 the 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 as detailed below. Temporary differences do not require reclassification. Temporary and permanent differences do not impact the net asset values of the Funds.

At March 31, 2011, the cost and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of investments (excluding investments in derivatives), as determined on a federal income tax basis, were as follows:

New York New York Performance New York — Dividend New York — Dividend
Value Value 2 Plus Advantage Advantage 2
(NNY) (NYV) (NNP) (NAN) (NXK)
Cost of investments $ 136,661,922 $ 32,995,069 $ 303,893,444 $ 179,254,290 $ 124,646,960
Gross unrealized:
Appreciation $ 2,784,098 $ 1,194,740 $ 8,242,637 $ 2,148,335 $ 1,311,658
Depreciation (3,971,125 ) (465,000 ) (9,166,138 ) (6,632,613 ) (4,348,924 )

Permanent differences, primarily due to federal taxes paid, taxable market discount and distribution character reclassifications, resulted in reclassifications among the Funds’ components of Common share net assets at September 30, 2010, the Funds’ last tax year-end, as follows:

New York New York New York — Performance New York — Dividend New York — Dividend

  1. Management Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates

Each Fund’s management fee consists of two components — a fund-level fee, based only on the amount of assets within the Fund, and a complex-level fee, based on the aggregate amount of all eligible fund assets managed by the Adviser. This pricing structure enables Fund shareholders to benefit from growth in the assets within their Fund as well as from growth in the amount of complex-wide assets managed by the Adviser.

New York Value (NNY) pays an annual fund-level fee, payable monthly, of .15% of the average daily net assets* of the Fund, as well as 4.125% of the gross interest income (excluding interest on bonds underlying a “self-deposited inverse floater” trust that is attributed to the Fund over and above the net interest earned on the inverse floater itself) of the Fund.

The annual fund-level fee for the following Funds, payable monthly, is calculated according to the following schedules:

New York Performance Plus (NNP)
Average Daily Managed Assets* Fund-Level Fee Rate
For the first $125 million .4500 %
For the next $125 million .4375
For the next $250 million .4250

Financial Statements (Unaudited) (continued)

The annual complex-level fee for each fund, payable monthly, is calculated according to the following schedule:
Complex-Level Managed Asset Breakpoint Level* Effective Rate at Breakpoint Level
$55 billion .2000 %
$56 billion .1996
$57 billion .1989
$60 billion .1961
$63 billion .1931
$66 billion .1900
$71 billion .1851
$76 billion .1806
$80 billion .1773
$91 billion .1691
$125 billion .1599
$200 billion .1505
$250 billion .1469
$300 billion .1445
  • For the fund-level and complex-level fees, managed assets include closed-end fund 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 certain 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 as to certain funds to limit the amount of such assets for determining managed assets in certain circumstances. The complex-level fee is calculated based upon the aggregate daily managed assets of all Nuveen funds that constitute “eligible assets.” Eligible assets do not include assets attributable to investments in other Nuveen funds or assets in excess of $2 billion added to the Nuveen fund complex in connection with the Adviser’s assumption of the management of the former First American Funds effective January 1, 2011. As of March 31, 2011, the complex-level fee rate for these Funds was .1800%.

The management fee compensates the Adviser for overall investment advisory and administrative services and general office facilities. The Adviser has entered into Sub-Advisory Agreements with the Sub-Adviser under which the Sub-Adviser manages the investment portfolios of the Funds. The Sub-Adviser is compensated for its services to the Funds from the management fees paid to the Adviser.

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.

For the first ten years of New York Dividend Advantage 2’s (NXK) operations, the Adviser has agreed to reimburse the Fund, as a percentage of average daily managed assets for fees and expenses in the amounts and for the time periods set forth below:

Year Ending — March 31, Year Ending — March 31,
2001* .30% 2007 .25%
2002 .30 2008 .20
2003 .30 2009 .15
2004 .30 2010 .10
2005 .30 2011 .05
2006 .30
  • From the commencement of operations.

The Adviser has not agreed to reimburse New York Dividend Advantage 2 (NXK) for any portion of its fees and expenses beyond March 31, 2011.

  1. Regulatory Matters

Subsequent to the reporting period, Nuveen Securities, LLC (“Nuveen Securities”) entered into a settlement with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) with respect to certain allegations regarding Nuveen-sponsored closed-end fund ARPS marketing brochures. As part of this settlement, Nuveen Securities neither admitted to nor denied FINRA’s allegations. Nuveen Securities is the broker-dealer subsidiary of Nuveen.

The settlement with FINRA concludes an investigation that followed the widespread failure of auctions for ARPS and other auction rate securities, which generally began in mid-February 2008. In the settlement, FINRA alleged that certain marketing materials provided by Nuveen Securities were false and misleading. Nuveen Securities agreed to a censure and the payment of a $3 million fine.

Board Approval of Sub-Advisory Arrangements (Unaudited)

At a meeting held on May 25-26, 2010 (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 Board Members who are not parties to the advisory agreements or “interested persons” of any parties (the “ Independent Board Members ”), considered and approved the advisory agreements (each, an “ Advisory Agreement ”) between each Fund and Nuveen Asset Management (the “ Adviser ”). Since the May Meeting, Nuveen has engaged in an internal restructuring (the “ Restructuring ”) pursuant to which the portfolio management services provided by the Adviser to the Funds were transferred to Nuveen Asset Management, LLC (“ NAM LLC ”), a newly-organized wholly-owned subsidiary of the Adviser and the Adviser changed its name to Nuveen Fund Advisors, Inc. (“ NFA ”). The Adviser, under its new name NFA, continues to serve as investment adviser to the Funds and, in that capacity, will continue to provide various oversight, administrative, compliance and other services. To effectuate the foregoing, NFA entered into sub-advisory agreements with NAM LLC on behalf of the Funds (each, a “ Sub-Advisory Agreement ”). Under each Sub-Advisory Agreement, NAM LLC, subject to the oversight of NFA and the Board, will furnish an investment program, make investment decisions for, and place all orders for the purchase and sale of securities for the portion of the respective Fund’s investment portfolio allocated to it by NFA. There have been no changes to the advisory fees paid by the Funds; rather, NFA will pay a portion of the investment advisory fee it receives to NAM LLC for its sub-advisory services. The Independent Board Members reviewed the allocation of fees between NFA and NAM LLC. NFA and NAM LLC do not anticipate any reduction in the nature or level of services provided to the Funds following the Restructuring. The personnel of NFA who engaged in portfolio management activities prior to the spinoff of NAM LLC are not expected to materially change as a result of the spinoff. In light of the foregoing, at a meeting held on November 16-18, 2010, the Board Members, including a majority of the Independent Board Members, approved the Sub-Advisory Agreements on behalf of the Funds. Given that the Restructuring was not expected to reduce the level or nature of services provided and the advisory fees paid by the Funds were the same, the factors considered and determinations made at the May Meeting in approving the Advisory Agreements were equally applicable to the approval of the Sub-Advisory Agreements. For a discussion of these considerations, please see the shareholder report of the Funds that was first issued after the May Meeting for the period including May 2010.

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 Automatic Reinvestment Plan

Your Nuveen Closed-End Fund allows you to conveniently reinvest 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 compounding. Just like distributions in cash, there may be times when income or capital gains taxes may be payable on 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 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. Distributions received to purchase shares in the open market will normally be invested shortly after the distribution payment date. No interest will be paid on distributions awaiting reinvestment. Because the market price of the shares may increase before purchases are completed, the average purchase price per share may

EFPlaceholder

exceed the market price at the time of valuation, resulting in the acquisition of fewer shares than if the 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.

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

· 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.

· Average Annual Total Return: This is a commonly used method to express an investment’s performance over a particular, usually multi-year time period. It expresses the return that would have been necessary each year to equal the investment’s actual cumulative performance (including change in NAV or market price and reinvested dividends and capital gains distributions, if any) over the time period being considered.

· Average Effective Maturity: The market-value-weighted average of the effective maturity dates of the individual securities including cash. In the case of a bond that has been advance-refunded to a call date, the effective maturity is the date on which the bond is scheduled to be redeemed using the proceeds of an escrow account. In most other cases the effective maturity is the stated maturity date of the security.

· 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.

· Leverage: Using borrowed money to invest in securities or other assets.

· Leverage-Adjusted Duration : Duration is a measure of the expected period over which a bond’s principal and interest will be paid, and consequently is a measure of the sensitivity of a bond’s or bond Fund’s value to changes when market interest rates change. Generally, the longer a bond’s or Fund’s duration, the more the price of the bond or Fund will change as interest rates change. Leverage-adjusted duration takes into account the leveraging process for a Fund and therefore is longer than the duration of the Fund’s portfolio of bonds.

· Market Yield (also known as Dividend Yield or Current Yield): An investment’s current annualized dividend divided by its current market price.

· Net Asset Value (NAV): A Fund’s 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.

· 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.

· Structural Leverage: Structural Leverage consists of preferred shares or debt issued by the fund. Both of these are part of a fund’s capital structure. Structural leverage is sometimes referred to as “’40 Act Leverage” and is subject to asset coverage limits set in the Investment Company Act of 1940.

· 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.

· 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.
