UNIT PRICE, ESTIMATED CURRENT RETURN AND ESTIMATED LONG TERM RETURN DEPEND ON
AMOUNT PURCHASED AND PAYMENT OPTION    The sales charges/volume discounts below
apply on all concurrent purchases of any Nuveen trust units, unless any such
purchases are made by a class of investors for which a separate sales charge is
applicable as described more fully in the Prospectus. Estimated Current Return
equals net income divided by offering price. Estimated Long Term Return
represents an average of the yields to maturity (or call) of the Bonds in the
Trust adjusted to reflect a compounding factor, expenses and sales charges.

(1) As of the business day prior to the Date of Deposit. Units are offered at
    the Public Offering Price plus accrued interest.
(2) All figures as of the business day prior to the Date of Deposit. Figures in
    brackets represent the current return. The first year's estimated current
    returns are slightly lower than those for subsequent years because a portion
    of the monies received in the first year only will be treated as a return of
    principal due to the inclusion in the portfolio of "when issued" or other
    Bonds having delivery dates after the date of settlement for a purchase made
    on the Date of Deposit.
(3) In contrast to Estimated Current Return, Estimated Long Term Return reflects
    the amortization of premium or accretion of discount, if any, on the bonds
    in the Trust's portfolio.

REINVESTMENT OPTIONS   Specify automatic reinvestment of trust income, with no
sales charge, to earn compounded dividends with Nuveen mutual funds.

  * Record Dates for semi-annual distributions are May 1 and November 1; for
    quarterly distributions, they are February 1, May 1, August 1 and November
    1. Record Dates for monthly distributions are the first day of each month.
    Distribution Dates under each distribution plan are the fifteenth day of the
    month in which the respective Record Date occurred.
(1) The first distribution will be paid to all Unitholders, regardless of the
    distribution plan selected. Such distribution may be more or less than a
    regular monthly distribution.
(2) The second distribution under the quarterly distribution plan represents a
    1-month distribution; subsequent quarterly distributions will be regular
    3-month distributions.
(3) The second distribution under the semi-annual distribution plan represents a
    4-month distribution; subsequent semi-annual distributions will be regular
    6-month distributions.
+ Interest for Unitholders of this series began to accrue as of the Date of
Deposit. Units purchased on the Date of Deposit will have $.07 of accrued
interest that will be added to the Public Offering Price on the Settlement Date.
After provision for expenses of the Fund, the daily rate of accrual from the
Date of Deposit to the first Record Date is $.01439 per unit per day.
Consequently, on the first Record Date (01/01/96), accrued interest will total
$0.6331 per unit for the 44-day period. All interest accrued from the Date of
Deposit to the first Record Date, less expenses, will be distributed on the
first Distribution Date to Unitholders of Record as of the first Record Date.
The first payment to all Unitholders of Record on 01/01/96 is $.6331 per unit.
After the first Record Date daily rates of accrual are:
              Monthly - $0.01439              Quarterly - $0.01448
                             Semi-Annual - $0.01453
This daily rate of accrual, and the annual distributions shown above, will
remain the same as long as the portfolio size and composition remain the same.

</TABLE>
 
  * Record Dates for semi-annual distributions are May 1 and November 1; for
    quarterly distributions, they are February 1, May 1, August 1 and November
    1. Record Dates for monthly distributions are the first day of each month.
    Distribution Dates under each distribution plan are the fifteenth day of the
    month in which the respective Record Date occurred.
(1) The first distribution will be paid to all Unitholders, regardless of the
    distribution plan selected. Such distribution may be more or less than a
    regular monthly distribution.
(2) The second distribution under the quarterly distribution plan represents a
    1-month distribution; subsequent quarterly distributions will be regular
    3-month distributions.
(3) The second distribution under the semi-annual distribution plan represents a
    4-month distribution; subsequent semi-annual distributions will be regular
    6-month distributions.
+ Interest for Unitholders of this series began to accrue as of the Date of
Deposit. Units purchased on the Date of Deposit will have $.07 of accrued
interest that will be added to the Public Offering Price on the Settlement Date.
After provision for expenses of the Fund, the daily rate of accrual from the
Date of Deposit to the first Record Date is $.01422 per unit per day.
Consequently, on the first Record Date (01/01/96), accrued interest will total
$0.6256 per unit for the 44-day period. All interest accrued from the Date of
Deposit to the first Record Date, less expenses, will be distributed on the
first Distribution Date to Unitholders of Record as of the first Record Date.
The first payment to all Unitholders of Record on 01/01/96 is $.6256 per unit.
After the first Record Date daily rates of accrual are:
              Monthly - $0.01422              Quarterly - $0.01431
                             Semi-Annual - $0.01437
This daily rate of accrual, and the annual distributions shown above, will
remain the same as long as the portfolio size and composition remain the same.
