Build Your Wealth Automatically
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 add to your tax-free portfolio and earn the
tax-free income you need to achieve your financial goals.
Nuveen exchange-traded funds 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. 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 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. Income or capital gains taxes may be payable on dividends or
distributions that are reinvested.
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

Dear Shareholder

"In addition to substantial returns, shareholders continue to enjoy very
attractive current yields generated by portfolios of quality bonds."
It's a pleasure to report to you on the performance of Nuveen's exchange-traded
funds. Over the past year, the funds covered in this report posted sizable
gains. For the fiscal year ended May 31, 1997, the value of your investment rose
between 10.08% and 12.01% if you chose to reinvest your tax-free income
dividends.
Over this 12-month period, the total return performance for these funds outpaced
the 8.28% increase (with income reinvested) produced by the Lehman Brothers
Municipal Bond Index, which represents the broad municipal bond market on an
unmanaged basis. Similarly, the leveraged, municipal bond funds tracked
by Lipper Analytical Services rose an average of 7.43% over the past year.
In addition to substantial returns, shareholders in these funds continue to
enjoy very attractive current yields generated by portfolios of quality bonds,
which provide excellent income for investors. As of May 31, 1997, shareholders
in the funds covered in this report were receiving annual tax-free yields on net
asset value that ranged from 5.42% to 5.67%. To match these yields, investors in
the 31% federal income tax bracket would have had to earn at least 7.86% on
taxable alternatives of comparable quality.
These results were produced against a backdrop of continued economic expansion
and the lowest unemployment rates in almost two decades, a combination that in
the past has foreshadowed an increase in inflation. In March, the Federal
Reserve made a preemptive strike by raising short-term interest rates by 0.25%,
but then maintained the status quo at its May and July meetings. Overall market
returns continue to be good, but fear of inflation has hampered the performance
of municipals and led to increased volatility in both the equity and bond
markets.
In the first six months of the year, the markets also focused on fiscal
issues, including the federal budget accord and discussion of plans to reduce
taxes and eliminate the deficit. The economy appeared to be moderating,
corporate earnings reports continued to exhibit strength, and interest rates
fell in the second quarter. All of this was positive news. The net effect is
that the markets are better off now than at the beginning of the year, but the
volatility in getting there has been significant.
<PAGE>
Currently, the need for diversification and a renewed emphasis
on asset allocation - as well as attractive yields - have sparked increased
interest in tax-free investments. The rapid rise in the stock market reminds
investors to re-allocate profits to other segments of the market in order to
limit risk. Nuveen exchange-traded funds provide an excellent alternative, and
their current yields make them very attractive in relation to the rest of the
market. In the past month, these yields have reached 80% of those offered by
Treasuries, a very appealing ratio given the tax advantage provided by municipal
bonds. We have also seen the discounts on many funds narrow dramatically, with
the average state fund now trading at a premium of 1.18%. Consideration of these
factors is leading investors to take another look at tax-free municipal bond
funds and lock in at current rates.
On behalf of everyone at Nuveen, I thank you for your confidence in us and our
family of investments. We will continue to strive to provide you with
high-quality investments that withstand the test of time. We look forward to
reporting to you again in six months.
Sincerely,
Timothy R. Schwertfeger
Chairman of the Board

Answering Your Questions
Photographic image of Tom Spalding, Portfolio Manager.
Tom Spalding, head of Nuveen's Chicago-based portfolio management team,
talks about the municipal bond market and offers insights into factors that
affected fund performance over the past year.
What are the investment objectives of these funds?
The primary investment objective of these funds is to maintain a high level of
current tax-free income consistent with preservation of capital. Their secondary
objective is to enhance portfolio value through investments in tax-exempt
municipal bonds that are either underrated or undervalued, or that represent
undervalued sectors of the municipal market.
What is your strategy for meeting these objectives?
To meet these funds' objectives of income and enhanced value, our portfolio
management strategy relies on conservative value investing principles, sound
research and credit surveillance activities, and senior management involvement.
At Nuveen, value investing means taking a fundamental approach to finding bonds
that offer the best balance of return with low risk regardless of the direction
of interest rates. This approach focuses on the characteristics of individual
bonds, such as the sector, geographic region, structure and intrinsic credit
quality. The idea behind this philosophy is that we, as investment managers, can
control the selection process, but not the direction of the market overall.
Our goal is to determine whether an issue is undervalued by the market, that is,
whether the bond's current market value, or price, is lower than its long-term
value, as evidenced by yield, maturity and credit quality. We also assess
whether the issue has the potential to reach that intrinsic value. For example,
we may find an opportunity to purchase bonds that offer extended call protection
at prices similar to those with shorter calls. If rates move down, the bonds
with longer call protection will appreciate in value more than those with
shorter calls. Value determinations require in-depth knowl edge and
understanding of the municipal market, the issuers, and the characteristics of
specific issues. Proper implementation of this strategy creates well-constructed
portfolios designed to provide shareholders with a dependable stream of tax-free
income.
What role does research play in helping you achieve the funds' objectives?
As an integral part of our portfolio management strategy, Nuveen Research
provides portfolio managers with objective appraisals of the creditworthiness of
new municipal issues, while maintaining surveillance of the credit performance
for all portfolio holdings. Creditworthiness is evaluated through our research
into factors such as the credit history of the issuer, capital structure, total
debt load, revenue sources and projections, call provisions, and local economic
forecasts. To track the credit performance of individual holdings, each Nuveen
Research analyst is responsible for a specific surveillance portfolio, which is
defined in terms of geography and sector (e.g., healthcare, housing).
Specialization by sector enables our Research team to focus their credit quality
evaluation efforts and complement the vantage point of each portfolio manager.
<PAGE>
What is the current outlook for the municipal market?
As we make our way through the seventh year of the current economic expansion,
some observers believe that a fundamental shift may have occurred in our
economy. Based on past experience and months of reports of economic growth,
especially employment statistics, the markets have long been anticipating an
increase in inflation. However, even with almost full employment, we have not
seen the expected rise in hourly wages that would be considered inflationary.
This change in the traditional economic cause-and-effect relationship has been
variously attributed to the globalization of the economy, to increased use of
technology and to corporations' recent ability to downsize as necessary.
Whatever the cause, inflation has not ignited. Although structural changes in
the economy appear to have suspended the relationship between faster growth and
higher inflation, the risk remains that inflation may reassert itself if
capacity constraints are reached and resources are stretched too thin.
Speculation of Fed tightening may continue. If the Fed does act to increase
rates, it will be perceived as a pre-emptive move against inflation. If the Fed
does not tighten, it will be seen as an indication that the economy is moving at
a moderate, non-inflationary pace.
Nonetheless, for the remainder of 1997, the municipal market will continue to
offer the attractive yields and tax advantages that make it a good alternative
if and when a correction in the stock market occurs. While money continues to
flow into equity mutual funds, investors are also beginning to evaluate the
effect of the huge run-up in stock prices on their asset allocation, and many
are rebalancing their portfolios by shifting some assets into bonds.

Notes to Financial Statements
1. General Information and Significant Accounting Policies
At May 31, 1997, the state Funds (the "Funds") covered in this report and their
corresponding stock exchange symbols are Nuveen Georgia Premium Income Municipal
Fund (NPG), Nuveen Maryland Premium Income Municipal Fund (NMY), Nuveen North
Carolina Premium Income Municipal Fund (NNC) and Nuveen Virginia Premium Income
Municipal Fund (NPV). NMY, NNC and NPV are traded on the New York Stock Exchange
while NPG is traded on the American Stock Exchange.
Each Fund invests primarily in a diversified portfolio of municipal obligations
issued by state and local government authorities within a single state. 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 Trustees. 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 their when-issued and delayed delivery purchase commitments. At
May 31, 1997, NMY had such outstanding purchase commitments of $4,564,745. There
were no such purchase commitments in any of the other Funds.
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.
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 $.01 per Common share. Furthermore, each Fund
intends to satisfy conditions which will enable interest from municipal
securities, which is exempt from regular federal and designated state income
taxes, to retain such tax-exempt status when distributed to shareholders of the
Funds. All income dividends paid during the fiscal year ended May 31, 1997, have
been designated Exempt Interest Dividends. Net realized capital gain and market
discount distributions are subject to federal taxation.
<PAGE>
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders
Tax-exempt net investment income is declared as a dividend monthly 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 carryovers.
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
The Funds have issued and outstanding $25,000 stated value Preferred shares.
Each Fund's Preferred shares are issued in one or more 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, were as follows:

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 fiscal year ended May 31, 1997.
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.

Under the Funds' investment management agreements with Nuveen Advisory Corp.
("the Adviser"), a wholly owned subsidiary of The John Nuveen Company, 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:
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>

Certain long-term and intermediate-term investments owned by the Funds are
either 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, both of which ensure the timely payment of principal and interest in
the event of default (55% for NPG, 44% for NMY, 33% for NNC and 29% for NPV).
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 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.

"At Nuveen, we make reinvesting easy. A phone call is all it takes to set
up your reinvestment account."
(continued from inside front cover)
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.
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 can also 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 financial adviser or call us
toll-free at (800) 257-8787.
