Dear Shareholder

I'm pleased to report that over the past 12 months, the Nuveen Exchange-Traded
Funds covered in this report continued to meet their primary objectives of
providing you with dependable tax-free income and attractive levels of after-tax
total returns. The combination of these two factors demonstrates once again that
Nuveen's municipal bond funds can serve as excellent investment options for
income-oriented investors.

The Year in Review
The past 12 months saw the U.S. economy continue its pattern of non-inflationary
growth, combined with low interest rates and unemployment levels that remain
among the lowest in more than 30 years. Much of the current economic growth is
propelled by consumer demand, which has helped the U.S. resist the downward pull
of weaker overseas markets. All indications point to a confident consumer who is
comfortable with the current state of the economy, especially the performance of
the housing, stock, and job markets. On the global front, the turmoil of the
past two years appears to be fading somewhat, as international financial markets
have begun sending recovery signals.

At the same time, inflation in the U.S. continued to operate at benign levels,
with an increase of only 1.6% for the 12 months ended March 31, 1999. As Federal
Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan has recently stated, one of the key factors in
achieving today's peaceful coexistence of economic growth and low inflation has
been increased productivity. Improvements in productivity, spurred by
technological advances, have been responsible for off-setting wage and other
inflationary pressures that we would normally expect to see as part of a growing
economy.

Last fall, the Federal Reserve eased short-term interest rates for the first
time in almost three years. Between the end of September and mid-November 1998,
three successive cuts brought the federal funds rate to 4.75%, averting a
potential domestic credit crunch and restoring some stability to global markets.
Following the success of these preemptive moves, the Federal Reserve seemed to
shift its inflation-fighting approach to a more reactive stance. Barring any
unforeseen developments, expectations are for a stable Fed policy and a stable
interest rate environment throughout the remainder of 1999. In the months ahead,
we will continue to watch for indications from the Fed and other factors that
affect the economy's future, including wage and employment statistics, reports
on productivity growth, capital equipment spending, and the progress of
international economic recovery. We believe these key components will influence
the outlook for fixed-income markets well into the new millennium.

Municipal Bonds:
An Attractive Investment Option
As interest rates declined over the past year, our municipal bond funds
continued to provide bright spots among investment options, offering attractive,
stable income in a market that places a high premium on yield. In 1998,
municipal bonds represented a calm haven in otherwise turbulent markets, with
lower volatility relative to Treasury bonds and other fixed-income investments.
For the first three months of 1999, munis continued to outperform Treasuries
and, in fact, were among the best performing asset classes for the quarter.

The high ratio of tax-exempt municipal yields to Treasury yields sheltered
municipal bonds from the price decline that occurred in the Treasury market
during the first quarter of the year. While interest rates on 30-year Treasury
bonds rose from 5.10% at the end of December to 5.63% as of March 31, 1999, the
yield on the Bond Buyer Revenue Bond Index, an unmanaged index of long-term
municipal revenue bonds, rose just three basis points - from 5.26% to 5.29%.
Given the inverse relationship between interest rates and bond prices, as rates
went up, prices went down. Though municipal bond prices also decreased, the drop
was not as dramatic as it was for Treasuries. The differential in performance
reflects the fact that Treasuries had become relatively expensive due to
safe-haven buying during the international economic crises of the past year. The
financial turmoil around the globe eventually subsided, and foreign investors
began to shy away from U.S. denominated securities, which caused Treasuries to
drop in price. At the end of March 1999, the ratio between long-term municipal
yields and 30-year Treasury yields stood at 94%, compared with the more typical
range of 86-87%. For investors, this meant that quality long-term municipal
bonds offered almost the same yield as Treasury bonds with comparable maturities
- - even before the tax advantages of municipal bonds are taken into account. On
an after-tax basis in today's market, municipal bonds continue to present an
exceptionally attractive investment option relative to Treasuries.

In 1998, lower interest rates and the strong economy combined to generate high
levels of new municipal issuance and a significant increase in the refinancing
of existing bonds. Municipal issuance in 1998 reached $284 billion, up 29% over
1997. In terms of total municipal issuance, 1998 ranked as the second largest
year on record, next to 1993's $292 billion. In the first quarter of 1999,
however, as the market settled into a stable interest rate environment,
refunding activity dropped off dramatically. As a result, municipal supply
declined 30% from the levels of the first quarter of 1998. This, in turn,
enhanced the attractiveness of the municipal bonds that were brought to market,
as demand - especially from individual investors - remained relatively strong.

The U.S. economy continues to benefit municipal issuers, as higher tax revenues
produced improvements in the fundamental health of many municipalities. In 1998,
for example, state tax revenues rose by an average of 6.9%. This expanded flow
of tax dollars resulted in higher credit ratings for many municipal governments,
as Moody's and Standard & Poor's - the two largest credit rating agencies -
upgraded 95 municipal bond issues while downgrading only 47. The healthcare
sector accounted for half of the downgraded issues, as improved projections
regarding Medicare's solvency were countered by medical costs that outpaced
inflation and continued pressure on hospitals from health insurers and the
government.

The Value of Nuveen Expertise
The solid track record of a proven investment manager is one key to taking
advantage of the attractive values currently available in the municipal market.
The near-record level of municipal issuance in 1998, for example, highlighted
the value of Nuveen's in-depth knowledge of the municipal market, as our
portfolio management teams carefully analyzed each issue to select those
securities best suited to help the funds achieve their investment objectives.
With the outlook for tighter supply and continued demand in 1999, Nuveen's
established market position ensures that we will have exceptional access to the
bond offerings that have the potential to add value for our shareholders.

As a further enhancement to our management capabilities, Nuveen has assembled a
strong group of investment managers - experts in their particular areas of the
market - to provide investors with the advantage of their experience and
insights. In addition to Nuveen Advisory Services for tax-free investing, you
and your financial adviser can rely on Institutional Capital Corporation for
value-oriented equity investing and Rittenhouse Financial Services, Inc. for
growth-oriented equity investing. We encourage you to talk with your financial
adviser about Nuveen's expanding array of investments and the ways they can help
you establish a diversified portfolio designed to build and sustain long-term
financial security. For more information on our funds, contact your adviser for
a prospectus, or call Nuveen at (800) 621-7227. Please read the prospectus
carefully before you invest or send money.

maintaining the trust you have shown in us and look forward to meeting your
investment needs well into the next century.

Nuveen New York Exchange-Traded Funds
Portfolio Manager's Comments

Portfolio manager Steve Peterson discusses the New York municipal market, recent
fund performance, and key investment strategies for the Nuveen New York
Exchange-Traded Funds. Steve, who joined Nuveen in 1988, manages a range of
Nuveen national and state municipal bond funds. He assumed portfolio management
responsibilities for the New York funds in early 1999.

What economic factors have affected the municipal market in New York?
Over the past 12 months, the economy of the state of New York continued to
improve, due largely to the ongoing success of the financial services sector,
particularly the securities industry centered in New York City. Based on the
increased tax revenues generated by this source, New York State - like many
other states and municipalities across the nation - is now enjoying a budget
surplus. This underscores the heavy influence of New York City - with 50% of the
state's population - on the state's economy. In recognition of New York City's
booming economy, both Standard & Poor's and Moody's upgraded the city's credit
rating from BBB+/Baa1 to A-/A3 in 1998. Although employment in the state has
improved over the past year, New York still lags the national economy in job
growth, with an unemployment rate of 5.0% in March, compared with the national
average of 4.2%. Several areas of the state have been hurt by the decline in
manufacturing brought on, in part, by the state's high tax rates, which have
made it difficult to attract new businesses and replace lost manufacturing jobs.

Although municipal issuance in New York during the first three months of 1999
was down slightly from the previous quarter, supply continues to be strong, with
$31.8 billion of new bonds issued in the 12-month period ended March 31,1999.
This compares favorably with the $32.3 billion of the prior year, especially
when we note that the Long Island Power Authority issue, the largest issuance in
municipal market history, accounted for $3.5 billion of the 1997-98 number.
Issuance in New York was driven by low interest rates and the state's
considerable capital needs to repair and replace an aging infrastructure.

Over the past year, the largest segment of new bonds came from the utilities
sector, along with heavy issuance from state appropriation programs for state
hospitals and schools, the City of New York, New York City Transitional Finance
Authority, and New York City Municipal Water Finance Authority. The majority of
funds raised by the Water Authority will be used to finance a third water tunnel
for New York City, a multi-billion dollar project that is expected to take
another 20 years to complete. The heavy supply of municipal bonds in New York
was met with one of the highest levels of demand in the nation, driven by the
combination of three factors: wealth (New York ranks among the top five states
in per capita income), population (the second largest state), and tax rate (one
of the highest in the country, especially for New York City residents).

How did the New York funds perform over the past year?
For the 12 months ended March 31, 1999, the Nuveen New York Exchange-Traded
Funds produced total returns on net asset value (NAV) ranging from 4.73% to
6.58%, providing taxable-equivalent returns of 8.12% to 9.64% (for investors in
the combined federal and state income tax rate of 35.5%), as shown in the
accompanying table. For comparison purposes, the total returns on the funds'
benchmarks - the Lehman Brothers New York Municipal Bond Index and the Lehman
New York Insured Municipal Bond Index - and the averages for the appropriate

</TABLE>
Over the past year, the yield on the Bond Buyer Revenue Bond Index, an unmanaged
index of long-term municipal revenue bonds, fell only 10 basis points, an
indication of a relatively stable interest rate climate. In this environment,
the funds' durations (the measurement of a bond fund's price volatility in
response to interest rate changes) played a smaller, though still significant
role in determining their returns relative to the market. NNF, which had the
longest leverage-adjusted duration (9.18 years) among these funds as of March
31, 1999, also had the best performance over the past 12 months, while NVN, with
the shortest duration (5.43 years), produced the lowest return. Other factors
such as sector weightings, levels of call protection, and bond selection also
had an impact on the performance of each fund. For example, the upgrade of New
York City's credit rating by both Standard & Poor's and Moody's resulted in
price appreciation for bonds issued by the city. Because each of the New York
funds held a different percentage of New York City bonds, this contributed to
the performance differential.

  Index, an unleveraged index comprising a broad range of New York
  investment-grade municipal bonds. The remaining four Nuveen New York funds,
  which are insured, are compared with the Lehman New York Insured Municipal

  The remaining funds, which are insured and leveraged, are compared with the
  New York Insured Leveraged category. Returns assume reinvestment of dividends
  and do not reflect any applicable sales charges.
3 Taxable-equivalent total return is based on the annualized total return and a
  combined federal and state income tax rate of 35.5%. It represents the return
  on a taxable investment necessary to equal the return of the Nuveen fund on an
  after-tax basis.
<PAGE>
How were the funds' dividends and share prices affected?
In the low interest rate environment of the past twelve months, good call
protection helped support the dividends of NVN, NUN, and NNF and shield the
income of these funds from erosion. In addition, excellent dividend management
strategies enabled us to increase the dividend of NNF in February 1999,
enhancing the competitiveness of its current market yield. As of March 31, 1999,
NVN had provided shareholders with 32 consecutive months of steady income, while
NUN and NNF had produced steady or increasing dividends since their inceptions.
During the past year, lower interest rates also led to an increase in the number
of bond calls, as issuers sought to reduce debt financing costs. In addition,
declining rates meant that proceeds from prepaid or matured bonds had to be
reinvested in issues paying relatively lower current rates. Both of these
situations contributed to reductions in the income levels of NNY, NNP, and NQN
and necessitated dividend cuts in these three funds. Even with these dividend
adjustments, all of the funds have continued to provide attractive market
yields.

As interest rates declined, active demand for funds such as NNF, with its
exceptional track record of steady income, and NNP, which offered the highest
yield among the six New York funds, resulted in solid share price performance.
For the remaining four funds, dividend adjustments and/or a higher potential for
bond calls led to declines in share price. At the same time, the funds' NAVs -
with the exception of NNF's - generally did not keep pace with gains in the
overall bond market. As a result of these changes, five of the funds saw their
premiums (share price above NAV) increase over the past year, while NNY, which
is the oldest New York fund, moved from a premium to a slight discount (share
price below NAV).

What key strategies were used to manage the New York funds during the past year?
The focus of our management strategies for the New York Exchange-Traded Funds
continued to be on supporting the highest level of tax-exempt dividends
consistent with capital preservation. All of the New York Exchange-Traded Funds
are managed on a relative value basis, a strategy designed to add value and
maximize income. This strategy is based on the fact that every bond has a set of
characteristics (e.g., call protection, liquidity, underlying credit, coupon)
that fluctuate. Nuveen's excellent surveillance and research help us make the
buy/sell decisions that can benefit the funds.

Another strategy we used to manage the funds involved taking advantage of
changes in the yield curve. The yield curve plots the relationship between bond
yields and corresponding maturities. Usually, but not always, bonds with longer
maturities offer higher yields than those with shorter terms to maturity. When
the yield curve "steepens," the difference between short-term and long-term
interest rates widens; when the yield curve is "flat," the difference is
relatively small. As the yield curve steepens or flattens, different maturities
on the curve become more or less attractive. Over the past year, our objective
was to purchase bonds at the most attractive part of the curve and sell those at
the least attractive part. These trades enabled us to manage interest rate risk
while maintaining the funds' yields.

Overall, the credit quality of the non-insured Nuveen New York Exchange-Traded
Funds remained high. During the past six months, NNY traded up slightly in
credit quality, as the portion of the fund invested in bonds rated AAA and AA
rose from 66% to 69%. The fund also added some BBB rated bonds that represented
significant value. As of the end of March 1999, NNP had 76% of its portfolio
invested in bonds rated AAA and AA. Credit quality is not a major issue in the
remaining funds, which are 100% invested in insured or U.S. Guaranteed bonds.

In the area of call protection, NNY, which was brought to market in 1987 as the
first of the Nuveen New York Exchange-Traded Funds, continues to experience the
normal part of the market cycle in which bond calls are likely to occur. This
phase will continue until the year 2001, after which the fund will again offer
good levels of call protection. NNP, NQN, and NVN will begin to face a
significant number of bond calls between 2000 and 2002, while NUN and NNF are
protected until 2002 and 2003, respectively. To minimize the impact of bond
calls, we are already at work on strategies for managing through this period.
For funds with tax loss carry-forwards, our strategy will include managing the
tax liability by selling bonds due to be called at good prices and putting the
proceeds to work through the purchase of additional bonds. This should enable us
to provide some protection for the funds' income levels without incurring
capital gains.

What is Nuveen's outlook for the future?
Looking ahead for the Nuveen New York Exchange-Traded Funds, our focus will
remain on supporting the income streams of these funds. One of our strategies
for protecting fund income is to continue taking advantage of changes in the
yield curve. We will also look at positioning the funds' durations, particularly
that of NVN, so that the funds are better protected against any interest rate
volatility. These strategies demonstrate the value that can be added by an
active bond manager such as Nuveen. As an experienced investment manager
knowledgeable about the unique aspects of the New York municipal market, we are
in the marketplace every day, monitoring market dynamics, looking for
opportunities, and capitalizing on them to the benefit of fund shareholders.

In our opinion, municipal bonds are currently one of the most compelling values
in the investment marketplace. Over the past 12 months, the value of these
quality investments has been enhanced by excellent municipal-to-Treasury ratios
(with municipal yields comparable to Treasury yields even before the tax
advantage of municipals is taken into account) as well as a market environment
characterized by low interest rates and benign inflation. With continued
volatility in the equity markets and investors' increasing awareness of the need
for asset allocation rebalancing, the demand for municipal bond funds is
expected to grow. We believe that investors who take advantage of current
opportunities in the municipal market should be rewarded with healthy returns
and attractive yields in the months ahead.


3 Taxable-equivalent  yield represents the yield on a taxable investment
  necessary to equal the yield of the Nuveen fund on an after-tax basis. It is
  based on a combined federal and state income tax rate of 35.5%.
4 A fund's premium or discount represents the ratio of the fund's share price to
  its NAV.
5 Taxable-equivalent total return is based on the annualized total return and a
  combined federal and state income tax rate of 35.5%. It represents the return
  on a taxable investment necessary to equal the return of the Nuveen fund on an
  after-tax basis.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)

1. GENERAL INFORMATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The New York Funds (the "Funds") covered in this report and their
corresponding New York Stock Exchange symbols are Nuveen New York Municipal
Value Fund, Inc. (NNY), Nuveen New York Performance Plus Municipal Fund, Inc.
(NNP), Nuveen New York Investment Quality Municipal Fund, Inc. (NQN), Nuveen New
York Select Quality Municipal Fund, Inc. (NVN), Nuveen New York Quality Income
Municipal Fund, Inc. (NUN) and Nuveen Insured New York Premium Income Municipal
Fund, Inc. (NNF).

Each Fund invests primarily in a diversified portfolio of municipal obligations
issued by state and local government authorities within the state of New York.
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
The prices of municipal bonds in each Fund's investment portfolio are provided
by a pricing service approved by the Fund's Board of Directors. When price
quotes are not readily available (which is usually the case for municipal
securities), the pricing service establishes fair market value based on yields
or prices of municipal bonds of comparable quality, type of issue, coupon,
maturity and rating, indications of value from securities dealers and general
market conditions. Temporary investments in securities that have variable rate
and demand features qualifying them as short-term securities are valued at
amortized cost, which approximates market value.

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 have extended settlement periods. 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 the when-issued and delayed delivery purchase commitments. At
March 31, 1999, New York Value and New York Quality Income had outstanding
when-issued purchase commitments of $4,413,187 and $3,531,055, respectively.
There were no such outstanding purchase commitments in any of the other Funds.

INVESTMENT 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.

INCOME TAXES
Each Fund is a separate taxpayer for federal income tax purposes. Each Fund
intends to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable
to regulated investment companies and to distribute all of its tax-exempt net
investment income, in addition to any significant amounts of net realized
capital gains and/or market discount realized from investment transactions. The
Funds currently consider significant net realized capital gains and/or market
discount as amounts in excess of $.001 per Common share for New York Value and
$.01 per Common share for the other Funds. Furthermore, each Fund intends to
satisfy conditions which 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 gain and market discount distributions are subject to federal taxation.

DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS
Tax-exempt net investment income is declared monthly as a dividend and
payment is made or reinvestment is credited to shareholder accounts on the first
business day after month-end. Net realized capital gains and/or market discount
from investment transactions, if any, are distributed to shareholders not less
frequently than annually. Furthermore, capital gains are distributed only to the
extent they exceed available capital loss carryforwards.

Distributions to shareholders of tax-exempt net investment income, net realized
capital gains and/or market discount, 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 generally accepted accounting
principles. Accordingly, temporary over-distributions as a result of these
differences may occur and will be classified as either distributions in excess
of net investment income, distributions in excess of net realized gains and/or
distributions in excess of net ordinary taxable income from investment
transactions, where applicable.

PREFERRED SHARES
New York Value is not authorized to issue Preferred shares. The Funds below
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. The number of
shares outstanding, by Series and in total, for each Fund is as follows:

INSURANCE
New York Investment Quality, New York Select Quality, New York Quality Income
and Insured New York Premium Income invest in municipal securities which are
either covered by insurance or are backed by an escrow or trust account
containing sufficient U.S. government or U.S. government agency securities, both
of which ensure the timely payment of principal and interest. Each insured
municipal security is covered by Original Issue Insurance, Secondary Market
Insurance or Portfolio Insurance. Such insurance does not guarantee the market
value of the municipal securities or the value of the Funds' shares. Original
Issue Insurance and Secondary Market Insurance remain in effect as long as the
municipal securities covered thereby remain outstanding and the insurer remains
in business, regardless of whether the Funds ultimately dispose of such
municipal securities. Consequently, the market value of the municipal securities
covered by Original Issue Insurance or Secondary Market Insurance may reflect
value attributable to the insurance. Portfolio Insurance is effective only while
the municipal securities are held by the Funds. Accordingly, neither the prices
used in determining the market value of the underlying municipal securities nor
the net asset value of the Funds' shares include value, if any, attributable to
the Portfolio Insurance. Each policy of the Portfolio Insurance does, however,
give the Funds the right to obtain permanent insurance with respect to the
municipal security covered by the Portfolio Insurance policy at the time of its
sale.

DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The Funds may invest in 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 six months ended March 31,
1999.

USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the
date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and
decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual
results may differ from those estimates.

6. MANAGEMENT FEE AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
Under New York Value's investment management agreement with Nuveen Advisory
Corp. (the "Adviser"), a wholly owned subsidiary of The John Nuveen Company, the
Fund pays an annual management fee, payable monthly, of .35 of 1% of the average
daily net asset value of the Fund, as well as 4.125% of the gross interest
income of the Fund.

Under the Funds' (excluding New York Value) investment management agreements
with the Adviser, each Fund pays 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 as follows:

AVERAGE DAILY NET ASSET VALUE                           MANAGEMENT FEE
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------
For the first $125 million                                 .6500 of 1%
For the next $125 million                                  .6375 of 1
For the next $250 million                                  .6250 of 1
For the next $500 million                                  .6125 of 1
For the next $1 billion                                    .6000 of 1
For net assets over $2 billion                             .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 of its 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.

YEAR 2000
The concern that computer systems may have problems processing date-related
information in the year 2000 and beyond has challenged businesses and
organizations to thoroughly review all aspects of their operations.We have
undertaken just such an approach at Nuveen in preparation for the millennium.
Over the last 10 years, we have updated or replaced our trading, fund
management, and pricing systems at Nuveen - systems that directly affect our
investors and their financial advisers - to address Year 2000 concerns.

We continue to work closely with our transfer agent, custodian, firms through
whom we buy and sell portfolio securities, and other service partners to monitor
the Year 2000 readiness of their systems, while addressing other remaining
systems issues.

In addition, the Funds hold securities of issuers whose business operations
leave them susceptible to Year 2000 concerns. We seek to evaluate an issuer's
Year 2000 readiness as part of our initial and ongoing research of these
issuers. This is only one of the many factors considered in determining whether
to buy, sell, or continue holding a particular security.

We anticipate that all significant components of our Year 2000 review,
repair, and testing program will be complete by mid-1999. This includes
appropriate industry-wide testing of critical systems and receipt of
satisfactory assurances from critical service providers, vendors, and issuers
regarding their Year 2000 readiness. We are also making Year 2000 contingency
plans to guide recovery efforts in the event that, despite our remediation
attempts, Year 2000 issues adversely affect the Funds. Although we cannot give
complete assurance at this time that the steps we take will be sufficient to
prevent any problems that would impact the Nuveen Exchange-Traded Funds, we can
assure you that we will take all reasonable steps to prevent disruption of the
services provided by your Fund.

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 six months ended March 31, 1999. Any future
repurchases will be reported to shareholders in the next annual or semiannual
report.
