Research: a foundation
Your financial plan is in place. You and your adviser have made asset
allocation decisions. For the tax-free portion of your portfolio, you want
dependable income, safety of principal, and diversification. Solid, reliable
Nuveen research helps to keep your tax-free investments on the path you have
chosen.
Paul Williams, Vice President and Manager of Investment Strategies and
Research, emphasizes fundamental research as a strategy for finding value.
<PAGE>
The strength of Nuveen's Research Department is illustrated by the numerous
awards and press coverage we receive. Annual industry polls consistently
recognize the quality and depth of Nuveen Research.

At Nuveen, we believe that attention to detail combined with years of
experience is the foundation for sound research. Sound research means finding
quality bonds that deliver timely and dependable income over many decades.
Beyond this, it means adding value by identifying bonds whose credit strengths
are not yet understood by the market.
USING RESEARCH TO TRACK QUALITY AND VALUE
With tens of thousands of bonds available for investment today, the municipal
market is one of the nation's largest--and most complex--securities markets.
At the same time, the number of analysts devoted to researching the municipal
market is comparatively small. While more than 12,000 analysts at nearly 2,000
firms and investment organizations research the 7,500 common stocks available
in the equity market, approximately 1,000 analysts at 400 firms and rating
agencies cover 60,000 municipal bond issues.
Selecting those bonds that will outperform the market and help you achieve
your investment goals depends upon an ability to analyze and understand
complexities ranging from the demand for a new highway or airport to the
impact of an industry closure on the financial position of a town's water and
sewer system.
At Nuveen, we can provide this depth because we have the largest research
staff in the investment banking industry devoted exclusively to the analysis
of municipal bonds. Our award-winning team of more than 30 research
professionals provides invaluable support to our portfolio managers, assisting
them in careful analysis of bond issues considered for purchase--even those
rated AAA.
On a daily basis, our research analysts prepare credit reviews to assist in
the selection of bonds that offer the best combination of yield and security,
monitor the continued creditworthiness of portfolio holdings, and analyze
economic, political, and demographic trends affecting the markets.
The scope of this analysis is broad. We understand the beneficial insights
that can be obtained by assessing the impact of local elections in small towns
or gaining an understanding of the global wood pulp market to accurately
evaluate a municipal issue in Alaska. Recently a financial adviser noticed a
large number of clippings on salmon fishing on one Nuveen analyst's desk. The
analyst explained that the articles provided information on salmon spawning, a
conservation issue having a major impact on public hydroelectric projects in
the Pacific Northwest. With the largest research staff in the industry, we can
analyze subtle but essential details such as this--and apply our findings to
enhance the performance of your portfolio.

BENEFITING OUR INVESTORS
The Nuveen Research Department supports the investment goals of fund investors
through three major activities:
Primary research and surveillance
Every year, our research staff reviews thousands of tax-exempt issues valued
at more than $100 billion to help our portfolio managers select the most
appropriate bonds based on current yield, price, credit quality, and future
prospects.
A recent example of the way Nuveen Research benefits our shareholders was
our successful investment in Philadelphia water and sewer bonds. When the city
decided to issue bonds to fund badly needed capital improvements, the city's
fiscal difficulties resulted in an issue that was priced below that of other
cities for similar bonds, generating higher income. However, Nuveen's own
research performed independently from the rating agencies indicated that the
city water and sewer system was economically sound and that adequate legal
safeguards would be in place to protect the investment. Following the
completion of the improvements, the prices of these bonds resulted in a
sizable portfolio gain to our shareholders.
Research reports
Just as you rely on your financial adviser for seasoned, prudent advice,
financial advisers depend on Nuveen's research reports to keep current on
market developments. Reports cover issues ranging from credit analysis of
specific states to comprehensive examinations of tax-free investment
strategies and the impact of national and state elections on municipal issues.
(For a list of research reports currently available to you and your adviser,
please refer to the attached reply card.)
Investor interests
We take our responsibility to our shareholders seriously by actively
representing their interests before the industry and government groups that
oversee and regulate the markets. We testified before a U.S. Senate
subcommittee to support better disclosure of financial information by bond
issuers. Our analysis of the effect of the Orange County bankruptcy on other
California issuers helped a California Senate subcommittee understand the
importance of fiscal conservatism and prudent policy decisions. By providing
informed opinions backed by years of experience, we help to define and set
policy that benefits you.
At Nuveen, quality research is one of the core elements of our disciplined
approach to providing you with dependable income, credit quality, and
diversification--key elements of a successful investment program.
Nuveen's research reports are often used by the press as background when
covering the municipal market in depth.

Municipal market perspective
The start of 1995 brought with it a turnaround in the bond market, concluding
one of the worst periods in recent bond market history. This rebound reflects
a general consensus that inflation is under control following an unprecedented
series of seven interest rate hikes by the Federal Reserve Board over a
twelve-month period.
In early July, the Federal Reserve reacted to the slowing economy by making a
much-anticipated move to ease short-term rates, the first such reduction in
nearly three years. Further rate cuts remain a possibility, as the Fed keeps a
close eye on the strength of the expanding economy and the outcome of
Congressional efforts to balance the federal budget.
In the municipal bond market, prospects of another Fed easing helped
municipals gain momentum toward year end, despite an exceptionally strong
stock market and continued debate about potential tax reform legislation.
Inflation for the year remained low, a benefit to bondholders.

Dear shareholder
Photographic image of Richard Franke, Chairman of Nuveen.
"Over time, municipal bonds have proven to be a valuable and dependable
component of successful investment programs."
Since the beginning of 1995, we have enjoyed a welcome rebound in the bond
markets, as we put behind us 1994--a very volatile period in bond market
history. This period serves as a reminder that weathering the ups and downs of
the markets is a normal part of the investment process. We can gain a better
perspective on this process if we remember one of the basic principles of
investing: A financial plan that focuses on your long-term goals can minimize
the impact of any short-term market volatility.
Municipal bond funds continue to be an attractive way to invest for the long
term, offering steady tax-free income and diversification across market
sectors. Throughout the past year, we have kept our sights focused on
successfully meeting these objectives, providing you with a solid source of
current income, credit quality, and enhanced share price relative to the
market as a whole.
As of October 31, 1995, current yields on share prices for the funds covered
in this report ranged from 7.08% to 7.20%. To match these yields, an investor
in the 36% federal income tax bracket would have had to earn at least 11.06%
on taxable alternatives of comparable quality. Without question, taxable
yields at these levels on investments of comparable quality are difficult to
achieve in today's markets.
Reflecting the rebound in the bond market, each of these funds reported
gains in net asset value over October 31, 1994, as well as substantial
increases in share price. The 12-month total returns on net asset value,
reflecting share price gains plus reinvested dividend income, ranged from
13.58% to 15.30%, which translates to 17.95% to 19.61% on a taxable-equivalent
basis. These performance results remind us of the important role that
municipal bonds--and the tax-free income they provide--can play as part of an
investment strategy focused on diversification and long-term performance.
The value and dependability of your municipal bond investments are enhanced
by the fact that you have chosen tax-free exchange-traded funds managed by
Nuveen. We offer a combination of professional management, award-winning
research, and shareholder service that distinguishes Nuveen as a fund manager.
<PAGE>
Our portfolio management strategy, which we call value investing, relies on
a disciplined approach to security selection and portfolio construction
designed to deliver above-market performance by emphasizing securities that
are underpriced or undervalued by the market. This approach is supported by
the strength of Nuveen Research, which provides the insights and experience to
assist portfolio managers in identifying and selecting bonds with strong
credit quality. Our research professionals continually monitor our holdings in
order to alert portfolio managers about changes that may affect quality.
Nuveen also prides itself on its exceptional service to shareholders.
Through annual and semiannual reports, regular statements, as well as our
toll-free information lines, our communication programs help us stay in touch
with your needs and concerns. We also provide support to financial advisers
across the nation by supplying them with the information they need to answer
your questions and ensure that products are selected to meet your needs. Our
educational reports--covering issues such as credit analyses, tax-free
investment strategies, and tax reform proposals--are available to both you and
your adviser to keep you current on market developments.
As you review the following pages detailing the solid performance of your
funds, we trust you will come away with the feeling that these results,
coupled with Nuveen's continued pledge of premium service, add up to a
rewarding investment experience. We look forward to serving your tax-free
investment needs in the future.
Sincerely,
Richard J. Franke
Chairman of the Board

Answering your questions
Photographic image of montage of letters received by Nuveen.
Tom Spalding, head of Nuveen's portfolio management team, offers insights into
value investing and the bond market recovery.
How has the recovery of the municipal bond market affected Nuveen funds?
In short, the market recovery has helped most Nuveen funds regain some of the
share price they lost during 1994's market. To put this in perspective, the
setback in the bond market last year--which goes on record as one of the most
volatile periods in decades--was the first downturn experienced by many Nuveen
exchange-traded fund investors, and they reacted by selling their shares.
This, in turn, drove share prices down even further. Since the beginning of
the recovery in early 1995, however, municipal bond prices have increased, and
most Nuveen funds have seen their prices rise 12% to 15%.
Because of their capital structure, leveraged funds such as the ones covered
in this report, experienced greater price declines in 1994 than unleveraged
funds, and they generally responded more quickly to the stabilizing interest
rate environment with recovering prices.

Tom Spalding, head of Nuveen's portfolio management team, answers investors'
questions on developments in the municipal market.
<PAGE>
Why do some of these funds continue to trade at a discount despite the
recovery?
To understand why this is happening, it may be helpful to remember that each
share has two prices: the net asset value (NAV), which represents the
underlying value--or the sum of assets and liabilities--of the fund, and the
share price, which reflects the market's assessment of the fund.
As the market turned around in 1995, net asset values appreciated more
quickly than share prices. This is typical of a market that sometimes takes a
while to recognize underlying value balanced against the various factors that
affect share price, such as interest rates, inflation forecasts, the relative
strength of the stock market, or the legislative and tax outlook. The fact
that gains in NAVs are currently outpacing the rate of change in share prices
means that the market is lagging in recognizing the value currently offered by
municipal bonds.
Investors in the Nuveen national funds should be aware that the net asset
values for these funds, as shown in the pages of this report, remain quite
strong. For long-term investors, in fact, the current period may present a
buying opportunity, as shares can be purchased at prices lower than their
underlying value--and at a time when the bond market is strong.
What does Nuveen mean by "value investing"? Where are Nuveen analysts finding
value today?
At Nuveen, we define value investing as a disciplined approach to security
selection and portfolio construction designed to deliver above-market
performance by emphasizing securities that offer good intrinsic value but that
are underpriced or undervalued by the market. Our value investing approach
concentrates on identifying individual bonds with current yields, prices,
credit quality, and future prospects that are exceptionally attractive in
relation to other bonds in the market.
As we search for value in the market today, our analysts continue to assess
investment potential across the entire spectrum of geographical and sector
opportunities. During 1995, we have seen many credit upgrades on portfolio
holdings, meaning that our judgments about credit quality have been rewarded.
We currently favor revenue bonds, which offer a dedicated revenue stream--such
as tollways or recycling plants, over general obligation bonds, which rely on
the taxing power of a state or municipality. One example of revenue bonds that
have performed exceptionally well for us recently are those issued for the
Denver International Airport.
<PAGE>
What does Nuveen see as the impact of the flat tax proposals?
We have been closely monitoring the various flat tax proposals currently being
debated in Congress and their implications for tax-free funds. Four major tax
reform proposals are currently under discussion, all with the common goal of
simplifying the federal tax code and increasing incentives for saving and
investment. It is important to note that none of the proposals has gained a
strong consensus and implementation of any measure that manages to pass both
houses is at least two years away. We believe that some action on the tax
reform front is likely, as our tax laws are constantly being reevaluated and
revised, although changes of the magnitude outlined in those proposals are
rare.
As we look at the bond market today, we can see some evidence that the
market is already compensating investors for the uncertainty of tax reform.
Yields on municipal bonds are currently at a level equal to 90% or more of
Treasury bond yields, an historically high level. These yields are comparable
to taxable yields in the 10% range, providing good value that is tough to
match.
Once this issue is resolved, we're confident that municipal bonds--because
of their high credit quality and attractive yields--will continue to hold a
strategic place in the prudent investor's portfolio. The importance of
municipal bonds is enhanced by the integral role they play in maintaining our
way of life in this country. Our cities, counties, and states will always have
a need for financing to build and upgrade projects such as roads, hospitals,
and water treatment systems, and municipal bonds will continue to be an
essential way to match America's long-term needs for capital improvements with
investors' long-term needs for secure income.
What is Nuveen's outlook as we head into 1996?
Inflation remains low and the economy seems to be expanding at a reasonable
pace, and while both of these factors can change and have an impact on the
bond market, the current environment is favorable for bonds. While municipal
supply is down from past years, demand from institutional investors such as
insurance companies has been strong in 1995, contributing to the rebound in
municipal prices. If we experience continued slow and steady economic growth,
combined with low inflation and stable interest rates, that would draw in
greater numbers of individual investors as well.

Commonly used terms
Yield
An exchange-traded fund's annualized monthly dividend on a given date (in the
case of this report, October 31, 1995) divided by its closing price per share
on that date.
Taxable equivalent yield
The return an investor subject to a given federal income tax rate would need
to obtain from a fully taxable investment to equal the fund's stated
annualized yield on share price. In this report, the tax rate is assumed to be
36.0% for shareholders, based on incomes of $117,950-$256,500 for investors
filing singly, $143,600-$256,500 for those filing jointly.
Net Asset Value (NAV)
The market value of all securities and other assets held by an exchange-traded
fund, minus any liabilities. The NAV per share is the fund's net assets, less
the value of its preferred shares, divided by the total number of common
shares outstanding.
Total return on NAV
The percentage change in a fund's NAV per common share for a given period,
assuming reinvestment of all dividends and capital gains distributions, if
any.
Taxable equivalent total return
The total return an investor subject to a given state and federal income tax
rate would need to obtain from a fully taxable investment to equal the Fund's
stated total return on NAV.
Leverage
A technique used to enhance the income produced for common shareholders by a
long-term municipal bond fund through the issuance of short-term preferred
shares. The proceeds from the sale of the preferred shares can be used to
purchase additional long-term bonds, thus increasing the portfolio's income
stream. Changes in net asset value per share, both up and down, are also
magnified by leverage.
Each Fund intends to repurchase shares of its own common or preferred stock in
the future at such times and in such amounts as is deemed advisable. No shares
were repurchased during the 12-month period ended October 31, 1995. Any future
repurchases will be reported to shareholders in the next annual or semiannual
report.

N/R - Investment is not rated.
Con. Rating is conditional. Bonds for which the security depends upon the
completion of some act or the fulfillment of some condition are rated
conditionally. These are bonds secured by (a) earnings by projects under
construction, (b) earnings of projects unseasoned in operation experience, (c)
rentals which begin when facilities are completed, or (d) payments to which
some other limiting condition attaches. Parenthetical rating denotes probable
credit stature upon completion of construction or elimination of basis of
condition.
t The security has a maturity of more than one year, but has variable rate and
demand features which qualify it as a short-term security. The rate disclosed
is that currently in effect. This rate changes periodically based on market
conditions or a specified market index.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. GENERAL INFORMATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
At October 31, 1995, the National Funds (the "Funds") covered in this report
and their corresponding New York Stock Exchange symbols are Nuveen Performance
Plus Municipal Fund, Inc. (NPP), Nuveen Municipal Advantage Fund, Inc. (NMA)
and Nuveen Municipal Market Opportunity Fund, Inc. (NMO).
The Funds are registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as
closed-end, diversified management investment companies.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the
Funds in the preparation of their financial statements in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles.
Securities Valuation
Portfolio securities for which market quotations are readily available are
valued at the mean between the quoted bid and asked prices or the yield
equivalent. Portfolio securities for which market quotations are not readily
available are valued at fair value by consistent application of methods
determined in good faith by the Board of Directors. Temporary investments in
securities that have variable rate and demand features qualifying them as
short-term securities are traded and valued at amortized cost.
Securities Transactions
Securities transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Realized gains and
losses from such transactions are determined on the specific identification
method. Securities purchased or sold on a when-issued or delayed delivery
basis may be settled a month or more after the transaction date. The
securities so purchased are subject to market fluctuation during this period.
The Funds have instructed the custodian to segregate assets in a separate
account with a current value at least equal to the amount of their purchase
commitments. At October 31, 1995, NMO had outstanding purchase commitments
that amounted to $17,149,552. There were no such purchase commitments in
either NPP or NMA.
<PAGE>
Interest Income
Interest income is determined on the basis of interest accrued, adjusted for
amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts on long-term debt
securities when required for federal income tax purposes.
Federal Income Taxes
The Funds intend to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code
applicable to regulated investment companies by distributing all of their net
investment income, in addition to any significant amounts of net realized
gains from investments, to shareholders. The Funds currently consider
significant net realized gains as amounts in excess of $.01 per Common share.
Furthermore, each Fund intends to satisfy conditions which will enable
interest from municipal securities, which is exempt from regular federal
income tax, to retain such tax-exempt status when distributed to shareholders
of the Funds. All income dividends paid during the year ended October 31,
1995, have been designated Exempt Interest Dividends.
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders
Net investment income is declared as a dividend monthly and payment is made or
reinvestment is credited to shareholder accounts after month-end. Net realized
gains from securities transactions are distributed to shareholders not less
frequently than annually only to the extent they exceed available capital loss
carryovers.
Distributions to shareholders of net investment income and net realized
capital gains are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The amount and timing of
such distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax
regulations, which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles.
Accordingly, temporary over-distributions as a result of these differences may
result and will be classified as either distributions in excess of net
investment income or distributions in excess of net realized capital gains, if
applicable.
<PAGE>
<TABLE>
Preferred Shares
The Funds have issued and outstanding $25,000 stated value Preferred shares.
Each Fund's Preferred shares are issued in more than one Series. The dividend
rate on each Series may change every seven days, as set by the auction agent,
except for those Series which have lengthened their current dividend periods
from seven days to three and five years (as indicated below). The number of
shares outstanding, by Series and in total, for each of the Funds is as
follows:

Derivative Financial Instruments
In October 1994, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 119 Disclosure about
Derivative Financial Instruments and Fair Value of Financial Instruments which
prescribes disclosure requirements for transactions in certain derivative
financial instruments including futures, forward, swap, and option contracts,
and other financial instruments with similar characteristics. Although the
Funds are authorized to invest in such financial instruments, and may do so in
the future, they did not make any such investments during the year ended
October 31, 1995, other than occasional purchases of high quality synthetic
money market securities which were held temporarily pending the re-investment
in long-term portfolio securities.

6. MANAGEMENT FEE AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS
WITH AFFILIATES
Under the Funds' investment management agreements with Nuveen Advisory Corp.
(the "Adviser"), a wholly owned subsidiary of The John Nuveen Company, each
Fund pays to the Adviser an annual management fee, payable monthly, at the
rates set forth below, which are based upon the average daily net asset value
of each Fund:
<CAPTION>
Average daily net asset value Management fee
<S> <C>
For the first $125,000,000 .65 of 1%
For the next $125,000,000 .6375 of 1
For the next $250,000,000 .625 of 1
For the next $500,000,000 .6125 of 1
For the next $1,000,000,000 .6 of 1
For net assets over $2,000,000,000 .5875 of 1
The fee compensates the Adviser for overall investment advisory and
administrative services and general office facilities. The Funds pay no
compensation directly to those Directors who are affiliated with the Adviser
or to their officers, all of whom receive remuneration for their services to
the Funds from the Adviser.

Certain long-term and intermediate-term investments owned by the Funds are
covered by insurance issued by several private insurers or are backed by an
escrow or trust containing U.S. Government or U.S. Government agency
securities, either of which ensure the timely payment of principal and
interest in the event of default (45% for NPP, 51% for NMA and 37% for NMO).
Such insurance or escrow, however, does not guarantee the market value of the
municipal securities or the value of any of the Funds' shares.
All of the temporary investments in short-term municipal securities have
credit enhancements (letters of credit, guarantees or insurance) issued by
third party domestic or foreign banks or other institutions.
For additional information regarding each investment security, refer to the
Portfolio of Investments of each Fund.

We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets, including the
portfolios of investments, of Nuveen Performance Plus Municipal Fund, Inc.,
Nuveen Municipal Advantage Fund, Inc. and Nuveen Municipal Market Opportunity
Fund, Inc. as of October 31, 1995, and the related statements of operations
and changes in net assets and the financial highlights for the periods
indicated thereon. 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 generally accepted auditing
standards. 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. An audit includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in
the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of investments
owned as of October 31, 1995, by correspondence with the custodian and
brokers. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. 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 Performance Plus Municipal Fund, Inc., Nuveen Municipal Advantage Fund,
Inc. and Nuveen Municipal Market Opportunity Fund, Inc. at October 31, 1995,

Build your wealth automatically
Photographic image of Customer Service Rep at Nuveen.
Managing your portfolio takes skill, experience, and informed judgment, but
our efforts to help you build your wealth don't stop there. At Nuveen, we
offer a number of convenient ways to build your tax-free portfolio and earn
the tax-free income you need to achieve your financial goals.
Nuveen Exchange-traded fund Dividend Reinvestment Plan
Your Nuveen exchange-traded fund allows you to conveniently reinvest dividends
and/or capital gains distributions in additional fund shares. If you do not
elect to reinvest distributions, all distributions are paid by check, or can
be deposited directly into your bank or brokerage account.
By choosing to reinvest, you'll be able to set aside money regularly and
automatically, and watch your investment grow through the power of tax-free
compounding. Income or capital gains taxes may be payable on dividends or
distributions that are reinvested. You'll also benefit from dollar-cost
averaging, a technique of investing at regular intervals, which allows you to
build a high-quality, tax-free portfolio conveniently and cost effectively
over time. All reinvestments are invested in full and fractional shares and
are kept in non-certificated form by the Plan Agent, Chase Manhattan Bank.
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.
The shares you acquire by reinvesting will either be purchased on the open
market or be newly issued by the Fund. If the shares are trading at or above
net asset value at the time of valuation, the Fund will issue new shares at
the then-current market price. If the shares are trading at less than net
asset value, shares for your account will be purchased on the open market.
Dividends and distributions received to purchase shares in the open market
will be invested within 30 days of the dividend payment date; no interest will
be paid on dividends and distributions awaiting reinvestment. Because the
market price of shares may increase before purchases are completed, the
average purchase price per share may exceed the market price at the time of
valuation resulting in the acquisition of fewer shares than if the dividend or
distribution had been paid in shares issued by the Fund. A pro rata portion of
any applicable brokerage commissions on open market purchases will be paid by
Plan participants. These commissions usually will be lower than those charged
on individual transactions.
<PAGE>
You may, of course, 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 also can reinvest if your shares are registered in the name of a
brokerage firm, bank, or other nominee. Just ask your investment adviser if
the firm will participate on your behalf. If not, it's easy to have the shares
registered in your name and to apply for a reinvestment account directly.
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.
For more information on the Nuveen Automatic Reinvestment Plan or to enroll
in or withdraw from the Plan, speak with your investment adviser or call us
toll-free at 1.800.257.8787.
