SCHWERTFEGER Chairman of the Board April 15, 2002 1 Nuveen California Municipal Closed-End Exchange-Traded Funds (NPC, NCL, NCU, NAC, NVX, NZH) Portfolio Managers' COMMENTS Portfolio managers Steve Krupa and Bill Fitzgerald review economic and market conditions, key strategies, and recent Fund performance. With 23 years of investment management experience at Nuveen, Steve has managed NPC and NCL since March 2001. Bill, who joined Nuveen in 1988, assumed portfolio management responsibility for NCU in 1998, NAC in 1999, and NVX and NZH upon their inceptions in 2001. WHAT WERE THE MAJOR DRIVERS OF THE U.S. ECONOMY AND THE MUNICIPAL MARKET DURING THIS REPORTING PERIOD? The major forces at work during the twelve months ended February 28, 2002, were the general slowdown in economic growth and the Federal Reserve's aggressive approach to easing short-term interest rates. In addition, the events of September 11, 2001, and the uncertain geopolitical climate that followed, also have impacted the economy and the markets. These factors produced a generally positive environment for fixed-income investments, and over the past twelve months many municipal securities have performed well. During 2001, national new municipal supply reached its highest level - $286.3 billion - since 1993. This strong new issue supply has continued during the first two months of 2002, with $41.3 billion in new issuance, up 23% over January/February 2001. On the demand side, municipal bonds continued to be highly sought after by individual investors looking for diversification, tax-free income, quality, and an alternative to a volatile stock market. Institutional investors, especially traditional purchasers such as insurance companies and pension plans, also have been active buyers in the new issue market. HOW WAS THE ECONOMIC AND MARKET ENVIRONMENT IN CALIFORNIA? Over the past year, the California economy has contended with the same economic weakness that has affected the rest of the nation. Because the state remains heavily dependent on economically sensitive revenue sources, such as sales, income, and capital gains taxes, the economic decline has had a major impact on the state's general revenues. As a result, California is now facing a budget deficit estimated at $7 billion. The state also continues to deal with the aftermath of the 2001 power crisis. Unless the state can issue a proposed offering of power bonds by the conclusion of fiscal 2002 on June 30, its general fund reserves and resources may continue to dwindle, and California may have to seek new and broader revenue sources. On the positive side, one byproduct of the declining economy was lower electricity prices. California also remained the nation's top state for exports, selling $107 billion of goods, primarily computer and electronic products, to other countries in 2001. During calendar year 2001, California experienced a 33% increase in new municipal bond issuance over 2000 totals. In January and February 2002, the state continued to see strong new supply, with issuance up 37% over the same period in 2001. However, the possible budget shortfall, combined with the uncertainties surrounding the resolution of the state's power problems, have put pressure on California's credit ratings. In November 2001, Moody's downgraded the rating on California general obligation bonds for the second time in twelve months. Moody's rating currently stands at A1, while Standard & Poor's and Fitch have maintained their ratings at A+/AA over the past six months. All three agencies also maintained a negative outlook for the state. HOW DID THESE NUVEEN CALIFORNIA FUNDS PERFORM OVER THE PAST TWELVE MONTHS? During the twelve months ended February 28, 2002, the Fed's policy of interest rate easing, combined with favorable market technicals, created a generally positive total return environment for municipal bonds. Individual results for the Nuveen California Funds are presented in the accompanying table. 2 TOTAL RETURN LEHMAN LIPPER MARKET YIELD ON NAV TOTAL RETURN1 AVERAGE2 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 YEAR 1 YEAR 1 YEAR TAXABLE- ENDED ENDED ENDED 2/28/02 EQUIVALENT3 2/28/02 2/28/02 2/28/02 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NPC 5.40% 8.50% 7.30% 6.90% 6.98% -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NCL 5.55% 8.74% 7.70% 6.90% 6.98% -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NCU 5.81% 9.15% 9.14% 6.68% 7.33% -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NAC 5.88% 9.26% 9.05% 6.68% 7.33% -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NVX 6.00% 9.45% NA - - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NZH 6.24% 9.83% NA - - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Past performance is not predictive of future results. For additional information, see the individual Performance Overview for your Fund in this report. Overall, the market environment of the past twelve months favored funds with longer durations. As of February 28, 2002, the durations4 of the two insured Funds were 9.54 and 8.31, compared with 8.63 for the unleveraged Lehman Brothers California Insured Tax-Exempt Bond Index, while NCU and NAC had durations of 11.30 and 12.42, respectively, versus 8.12 for the Lehman California Tax-Exempt Index. The durations of NVX and NZH, which were established in 2001, were 15.01 and 18.29, respectively, which is typical of newer Funds. Over time, we plan to move these durations in line with the other Nuveen California Municipal Closed-End Exchange-Traded Funds. In addition to duration, the performance of these Funds was influenced by market activity, portfolio structure, including call exposure, and individual holdings. HOW DID THE MARKET ENVIRONMENT AFFECT THE FUNDS' DIVIDENDS AND SHARE PRICES? With the Fed's interest rate cuts, the dividend-payment capabilities of these Funds benefited from the use of leverage, a strategy that can potentially enhance the dividends paid to common shareholders. This benefit is tied in part to the short-term rates these leveraged Funds pay their MuniPreferred(R) shareholders. For example, declining short-term rates can enable the Funds to reduce the amount of income they pay preferred shareholders, which can leave more earnings to support common share dividends. During the year ended February 28, 2002, steady or falling short-term interest rates helped us to implement three dividend increases in NCL and NCU and two increases in NPC and NAC. NVX and NZH, which were introduced during 2001, began paying regular monthly dividends on schedule and are currently providing very attractive levels of tax-free income to shareholders. Over the next twelve months, the level of short-term rates, the number of bond calls, and the interest rates at which we can reinvest the proceeds of any calls will continue to influence the dividends of these Nuveen Funds. Over the past year, continued fluctuations in the stock market and the strong performance of the bond market prompted many investors to turn to tax-free fixed-income investments as a way to rebalance their portfolios and reduce overall volatility. As investors recognized the opportunities offered by the Nuveen Funds, the share prices of the insured NPC and NCL improved, causing the discount (share price below NAV) on NPC to move to a premium (share price above NAV), while NCL's discount shrank considerably. Because the NAVs of NCU and NAC appreciated more rapidly than their share prices, these Funds saw their discounts widen over the past year. WHAT KEY STRATEGIES WERE USED TO MANAGE THE NUVEEN CALIFORNIA FUNDS DURING THE YEAR ENDED FEBRUARY 28, 2002? In view of recent world events, maintaining strong credit quality remained a primary area of emphasis. All of these Funds continued to offer excellent credit quality, with allocations of bonds rated AAA/U.S. guaranteed and AA ranging from 55% to 92% in the four non-insured Funds as of February 28, 2002. These Funds also had a portion of their assets invested in BBB and/or non-rated bonds, which serve to enhance the Funds' income streams. As insured Funds, NPC and NCL are 100% invested in insured and/or U.S. guaranteed securities, which means that credit quality is not an issue. As mentioned previously, continued uncertainty over the timing of a possible power bond issuance, together with the potential of a state budget shortfall, resulted in downgrades of California's credit ratings during the past twelve months. In anticipation of this, we sold California general obligation bonds from the non-insured Funds. As credit spreads subsequently widened, these bonds underperformed, reinforcing our decision to sell. Over this period, these Funds maintained their positions in California's three major utilities: Pacific Gas and Electric, Southern California Edison, and San Diego Gas and Electric. While these holdings restrained the performance of some of the Funds during the power crisis last year, the bonds have recovered much of their value over the past six months. [SIDEBAR FOOTNOTES]: 1 The performance of the insured Funds - NPC and NCL - is compared with that of the Lehman Brothers California Insured Tax-Exempt Bond Index, an unleveraged index comprising a broad range of insured California municipal bonds, while the performance of the non-insured Funds is compared with that of the Lehman California Tax-Exempt Bond Index, an unleveraged index comprising a broad range of investment-grade California muni-cipal bonds. Results for the Lehman indexes do not reflect any expenses. 2 The total returns of NPC and NCL are compared with the average annualized return of the 9 funds in the Lipper California Insured Municipal Debt Funds category, while the non-insured Funds are compared with the average annualized return of the 18 funds in the Lipper California Municipal Debt Funds category. Fund and Lipper returns assume reinvestment of dividends. 3 The taxable-equivalent yield represents the yield that must be earned on a taxable investment in order to equal the yield of the Nuveen Fund on an after-tax basis. The taxable-equivalent yield is based on the fund's market yield on the indicated date and a combined federal and state in-come tax rate of 36.5%. 4 Duration is a measure of a Fund's NAV volatility in reaction to interest rate movements. Fund duration, also known as leverage-adjusted duration, takes into account the leveraging process for a Fund and therefore is generally longer than the duration of the actual portfolio of individual bonds that make up the Fund. References to duration in this commentary are intended to indicate Fund duration unless otherwise noted. 3 The financial situation in California also illustrates the value that fully insured Funds can add to the portfolios of investors with moderate risk tolerance. As credit spreads widened on unenhanced California general obligation bonds, municipal securities with higher credit ratings, especially insured bonds, outperformed the rest of the California market. In investing new cash and proceeds from sales and bond calls over the past twelve months, we focused on attractive bonds with the potential to support the Funds' long-term dividend-payment capabilities, enhance total return potential, and add value and diversification. In the insured Funds, we found value in the healthcare sector and in selected airport offerings. In the non-insured Funds, we took advantage of opportunities in insured bonds in the 15-year to 20-year part of the yield curve across several sectors, particularly healthcare. This sector remains an important strategic selection for us, providing attractive income as well as competitive total returns. In terms of bond calls, the Funds offer excellent levels of call protection in 2002 and 2003, with call exposure ranging from 2% in NAC and NVX to 18% in NCU over the next 22 months. NPC, which was established in November 1992, faces a slightly higher level of potential calls (24% in 2002 and 2003) as the Fund works its way past its 10-year anniversary, a period normally associated with increased call exposure. The number of actual calls experienced by the Funds will depend largely on market interest rates over this time. We believe the overall call exposure of these Funds is very manageable, and we foresee no problems in working through the call risk. Our general approach has been to watch for opportunities to sell holdings with short calls and use the occasion to buy bonds that can extend call protection and enhance structure. Over the past twelve months, increased levels of municipal supply have helped us to implement this strategy. In September 2001, we introduced the Nuveen California Dividend Advantage Municipal Fund 3 (NZH). This Fund is now fully invested and, in our opinion, performing well for shareholders. As mentioned earlier, NZH paid its first dividend on target in December 2001, and we believe the Fund's holdings place it in an excellent position to pay an attractive, stable dividend on a monthly basis going forward. WHAT IS YOUR OUTLOOK FOR THE MUNICIPAL MARKET IN GENERAL AND THE NUVEEN CALIFORNIA FUNDS IN PARTICULAR? In general, our outlook for the fixed-income markets over the next twelve months remains positive. The U.S. economy appears headed for a recovery, but one characterized by a more moderate pace of growth, with inflation and interest rates remaining low over the near term. Nationally, new municipal issuance should continue to be strong, and we expect issuance in California to increase over 2001's high levels, as the state deals with the budget deficit, the issuance of power bonds, and the continued need for essential services such as schools and roads. Given the current situation, we expect much of this issuance to be offered as insured bonds. Shortly after the conclusion of this reporting period, California issued $1.1 billion in general obligation bonds as part of the state's plan to restructure debt and provide some budgetary relief. We also expect demand for tax-exempt municipal bonds to remain robust, as investors continue to look for ways to rebalance their portfolios and reduce risk. One of our priorities will be managing portfolio structure, including duration and - in the non-insured Funds - credit quality, to strategically position the Funds for an economic recovery. Depending on the direction of interest rates, we plan to use coupon characteristics to help us manage the duration of the non-insured Funds. As California addresses the issue of balancing the state budget, we believe the performance of the state's general obligation bonds should improve. As a result, we are once again looking for opportunities to increase our exposure to California GOs in the non-insured Funds. In the insured Funds, we plan to watch for opportunities presented by increased issuance, including the California power bonds when they finally come to market. In NVX and NZH, our focus will be on enhancing diversification and lowering durations. Overall, we believe the Nuveen California Funds represent an important element of investors' long-range financial programs, providing dependable tax-free income as well as balance, diversification, and quality. 4 Nuveen Insured California Premium Income Municipal Fund, Inc.

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) 1. GENERAL INFORMATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The California Funds (the "Funds") covered in this report and their corresponding stock exchange symbols are Nuveen Insured California Premium Income Municipal Fund, Inc. (NPC), Nuveen Insured California Premium Income Municipal Fund 2, Inc. (NCL), Nuveen California Premium Income Municipal Fund (NCU), Nuveen California Dividend Advantage Municipal Fund (NAC), Nuveen California Dividend Advantage Municipal Fund 2 (NVX) and Nuveen California Dividend Advantage Municipal Fund 3 (NZH). Insured California Premium Income (NPC), Insured California Premium Income 2 (NCL) and California Dividend Advantage (NAC) are traded on the New York Stock Exchange while California Premium Income (NCU), California Dividend Advantage 2 (NVX) and California Dividend Advantage 3 (NZH) are traded on the American Stock Exchange. Prior to the commencement of operations of California Dividend Advantage 2 (NVX) and California Dividend Advantage 3 (NZH), the Funds had no operations other than those related to organizational matters, the initial capital contribution of $100,275 by Nuveen Advisory Corp. (the "Adviser"), a wholly owned subsidiary of The John Nuveen Company and the recording of the organizational expenses ($15,000 and $11,500, respectively) and their reimbursement by Nuveen Investments, also a wholly owned subsidiary of The John Nuveen Company. Each Fund seeks to provide current income exempt from both regular federal and California state income taxes by investing primarily in a diversified portfolio of municipal obligations issued by state and local government authorities within the state of California. The Funds are registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as closed-end 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 accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. 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/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. If it is determined that market prices for a security are unavailable or inappropriate, the Board of Directors/Trustees of the Funds may establish a fair value for the security. 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 February 28, 2002, California Dividend Advantage 3 (NZH) had outstanding when-issued purchase commitments of $45,865,400. 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 for financial reporting 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 net investment income to its shareholders. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required. Furthermore, each Fund intends to satisfy conditions which will enable interest from municipal securities, which is exempt from regular federal and California state income taxes, to retain such tax-exempt status when distributed to shareholders of the Funds. 35 Notes to FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (continued) Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders Tax-exempt net investment income is declared monthly as a dividend. Generally, 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 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, 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 accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. 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 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: INSURED INSURED CALIFORNIA CALIFORNIA CALIFORNIA CALIFORNIA CALIFORNIA CALIFORNIA PREMIUM PREMIUM PREMIUM DIVIDEND DIVIDEND DIVIDEND INCOME INCOME 2 INCOME ADVANTAGE ADVANTAGE 2 ADVANTAGE 3 (NPC) (NCL) (NCU) (NAC) (NVX) (NZH) --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Number of shares: Series M -- -- 1,720 -- 2,200 3,740 Series T 1,800 1,900 -- -- -- -- Series Th -- 1,900 -- 3,500 -- 3,740 Series F -- -- -- 3,500 2,200 -- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total 1,800 3,800 1,720 7,000 4,400 7,480 ========================================================================================================= Effective November 16, 2001, California Dividend Advantage 3 (NZH) issued 3,740 Series M and 3,740 Series Th $25,000 stated value Preferred shares. Insurance Insured California Premium Income (NPC) and Insured California Premium Income 2 (NCL) 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. 36 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 period ended February 28, 2002. Custodian Fee Credit Each Fund has an arrangement with the custodian bank whereby certain custodian fees and expenses are reduced by credits earned on each Fund's cash on deposit with the bank. Such deposit arrangements are an alternative to overnight investments. Offering Costs Nuveen Investments has agreed to pay all offering costs (other than the sales load) that exceed $.03 per Common share for California Dividend Advantage 2 (NVX) and California Dividend Advantage 3 (NZH). California Dividend Advantage 2's (NVX) and California Dividend Advantage 3's (NZH) share of offering costs ($443,400 and $723,000, respectively) were recorded as a reduction of the proceeds from the sale of Common shares. Costs incurred by California Dividend Advantage 2 (NVX) and California Dividend Advantage 3 (NZH) in connection with their offering of Preferred shares ($1,296,000 and 2,116,250, respectively) were recorded as a reduction of the proceeds from the sale of the Preferred shares. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States 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. Change in Accounting Policy As required, effective September 1, 2001, the Funds have adopted the provisions of the new AICPA Audit and Accounting Guide for Investment Companies and began accreting taxable market discount on debt securities. Prior to September 1, 2001, the Funds did not accrete taxable market discount on debt securities until they were sold. The cumulative effect of this accounting change had no impact on the total net assets or the net asset values of the Funds, but resulted in an increase in the cost of securities and a corresponding decrease in unrealized appreciation based on securities held by the Funds on September 1, 2001, as follows: INSURED INSURED CALIFORNIA CALIFORNIA CALIFORNIA CALIFORNIA CALIFORNIA PREMIUM PREMIUM PREMIUM DIVIDEND DIVIDEND INCOME INCOME 2 INCOME ADVANTAGE ADVANTAGE 2 (NPC) (NCL) (NCU) (NAC) (NVX) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- $893,472 $87,380 $102,039 $-- $6,523 ================================================================================ The effect of this change for the period ended February 28, 2002, was to increase investment income with a corresponding decrease in net unrealized appreciation as follows: INSURED INSURED CALIFORNIA CALIFORNIA CALIFORNIA CALIFORNIA CALIFORNIA PREMIUM PREMIUM PREMIUM DIVIDEND DIVIDEND INCOME INCOME 2 INCOME ADVANTAGE ADVANTAGE 2 (NPC) (NCL) (NCU) (NAC) (NVX) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- $64,110 $6,101 $7,016 $-- $7,998 ================================================================================ The Statement of Changes in Net Assets and Financial Highlights for the prior periods have not been restated to reflect this change in presentation. 37 Notes to FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (continued) 2.

A PHONE CALL IS ALL IT TAKES TO SET UP YOUR REINVESTMENT ACCOUNT. 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. By choosing to reinvest, you'll be able to invest money regularly and automatically, and watch your investment grow through the power of tax-free compounding. Just like dividends or distributions in cash, there may be times when income or capital gains taxes may be payable on dividends or 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 dividends and 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 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 normally be invested shortly after 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. FLEXIBILITY You may 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 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. For more information on the Nuveen Automatic Reinvestment Plan or to enroll in or withdraw from the Plan, speak with your financial advisor or call us at (800) 257-8787. 44 Fund INFORMATION BOARD OF DIRECTORS/TRUSTEES Robert P.
