(NPC, NCL, NCU, NAC, NVX, NZH, NKL, NKX)

Portfolio Manager's
        COMMENTS



Portfolio manager Scott Romans reviews economic and municipal market conditions
at both the national and state levels, key investment strategies and the annual
performance of these eight Funds. Scott, who joined Nuveen Investments in 2000,
has managed NCU, NAC, NVX, NZH, NKL, and NKX since 2003. He assumed portfolio
management responsibility for NPC and NCL in 2005.

WHAT FACTORS AFFECTED THE U.S. ECONOMY AND MUNICIPAL MARKET DURING THE ANNUAL
REPORTING PERIOD ENDED AUGUST 31, 2006?

During this reporting period, we saw increases in interest rates across
virtually the entire yield curve, resulting in a general decline in bond prices.
Through much of the period, however, rates at the longer end of the curve
remained more stable than those at the short end. Between September 1, 2005 and
August 31, 2006, the Federal Reserve announced increases in the fed funds rate
at seven of its eight Open Market Committee meetings, leaving the rate unchanged
at the August 8, 2006 session. These seven 0.25% increases raised the short-term
target by 175 basis points, from 3.50% to 5.25%, its highest level since March
2001. By comparison, the yield on the benchmark 10-year U.S. Treasury note rose
71 basis points during this period to end August 2006 at 4.73%. As short-term
rates approached and exceeded the levels of long-term rates, the yield curve
flattened and then inverted.

In the municipal market, the yield on the Bond Buyer 25 Revenue Bond Index, a
widely followed measure of longer-term municipal market rates, stood at 4.91% at
the end of August 2006, an increase of just four basis points from the end of
August 2005.

Despite rising interest rates, elevated energy prices and a softening housing
market, the overall economy remained relatively resilient. After expanding at a
rate of 4.2% in the third quarter of 2005, the U.S. gross domestic product (GDP)
growth rate slowed to 1.8% in the fourth quarter of 2005, then rebounded sharply
to 5.6% in the first quarter of 2006 (all GDP numbers annualized). In the second
quarter of 2006, GDP growth moderated to 2.6% with the deceleration reflecting a
decline in federal spending as well as a major downturn in residential
investment. In general, the jobs picture remained positive, with national
unemployment at 4.7% in August 2006, down from 4.9% in August 2005. However, the
markets continued to keep a close eye on inflation trends, as the year-


                                       4



over-year increase in the Consumer Price Index registered 3.8% in August 2006.
During the first eight months of 2006, the increase in inflation was driven
mainly by higher energy and transportation costs, rising at an annualized rate
of 4.6%, compared with 3.4% for all of 2005.

Over the 12 months ended August 2006, municipal bond issuance nationwide totaled
$368.2 billion, down 7% from the previous 12 months. This total reflected the
general decrease in the supply of municipal securities during 2006. During the
first eight months of 2006, $235.5 billion in new securities came to market, off
15% from the same period in 2005. A major factor in 2006's drop-off was the
sharp reduction in pre-refunding volume, which fell more than 56% from 2005
levels as rising interest rates made advance refundings less economically
attractive. Overall, demand for municipal bonds, especially those offering
higher yields, continued to be strong and broad-based, with individual
investors, property and casualty insurance companies, and hedge funds all
participating in the market.

HOW WERE THE ECONOMIC AND MARKET ENVIRONMENTS IN CALIFORNIA DURING THIS PERIOD?

California ranked as the 15th fastest growing state economy in the nation in
2005, led by the leisure and hospitality sector, professional and business
services, and construction. California's $1.6 trillion economy remained diverse,
with international trade, technology, financial services and defense serving as
additional key drivers. Over the past six months, the state's ports benefited
from the nearly 10% growth in Asian trade, while Mexico remained California's
largest international trading partner. In August 2006, California's unemployment
rate was 4.9%, down from 5.2% in August 2005. While approximately 20% of the
jobs created in California during the 12-month period were generated by the
construction industry, concerns about the disproportionate impact of a housing
slowdown on the California economy have not yet been realized. Population trends
in the state, with growth of more than 8% over the past five years, remained
positive.


                                       5



Due to strong revenue growth resulting from economic expansion, California's
fiscal condition improved over the past 12 months, as personal income tax
receipts for fiscal 2006 surpassed the previous peak posted in 2001. The state's
general fund ended fiscal 2006 with an estimated balance of $6.5 billion, and
plans call for carrying forward the majority of these funds into fiscal 2007 to
offset a $3.7 billion deficit in the $125.6 billion fiscal 2007 budget and
prepay internal and external debt. Even withimprovements, however, California's
budget remained structurally imbalanced, and deficits in excess of $3 billion
were forecast for fiscal 2008 and 2009. Citing the improved tax revenue trends,
both Moody's and Standard & Poor's upgraded California's general obligation
bonds to A1 and A+, respectively, from A2 and A in May 2006. For the 12 months
ended August 31, 2006, municipal issuance in California totaled $51.0 billion,
on par with issuance for the previous 12 months. During the first eight months
of 2006, however, California supply declined sharply, falling 20% from that of
January-August 2005, to $30.3 billion. California remained the largest state
issuer in the nation for both the 12-month and year-to-date periods. A
referendum authorizing the issuance of $37 billion of additional general
obligation debt, down from the original proposal of $68 billion, is scheduled to
appear on the state's November 2006 ballot. If passed, this referendum would
increase California's general fund-supported debt by 67%.


WHAT KEY STRATEGIES WERE USED TO MANAGE THE CALIFORNIA FUNDS DURING THIS
REPORTING PERIOD?

As short term interest rates rose and the municipal bond yield curve flattened
during this 12-month period, we continued to emphasize a disciplined approach to
duration1 management and yield curve positioning. Over this period, two factors
caused the durations of some of these California Funds to shorten more quickly
relative to the general market. First, with the flattening of the curve, we saw
a major acceleration in advance refunding2 activity during the first half of
this period. While these pre-refundings benefited the Funds' performance in the
short-term, they also had a shortening effect on the Funds' durations. The
second factor was the natural tendency of a bond's duration to shorten as time
passes. During the second half of this period, we took a proactive



1    Duration is a measure of a bond's price sensitivity as interest rates
     change, with longer duration bonds displaying more sensitivity to these
     changes than bonds with shorter durations.

2    Advance refundings, also known as pre-refundings or refinancings, occur
     when an issuer sells new bonds and uses the proceeds to fund principal and
     interest payments of older, existing bonds. This process often results in
     lower borrowing costs for bond issuers.


                                       6



approach to mitigating some of the potential risks associated with these changes
in duration. (A fund's price performance can also be hampered if the fund's
duration is too short during a period when the market rallies.)

Because interest rates at the longer end of the yield curve remained relatively
low over this period, we believed the most prudent approach to maintaining the
Funds' durations within our preferred strategic range was the use of forward
interest rate swaps, a type of derivative financial instrument. As discussed in
previous shareholder reports, we began using these swaps strategies in late 2004
in an effort to control interest rate risk, that is, to reduce the impact of
movements in interest rates on the value of the Funds' investments. The swaps
are not an attempt to profit from correctly predicting the timing and direction
of interest rate movements. Instead, our sole objective is to manage the
durations of these Funds without having a negative impact on their income
streams or common share dividends over the short term. In line with this
objective, we placed swaps on NAC in June 2006, and NPC, NCL, and NVX in July
2006. These swaps performed as expected for the remainder of the period. In NKL
and NKX, where we had implemented swaps in a previous period, the natural
reduction in duration that occurs with the passage of time had brought these
funds close enough to duration targets to allow us to remove the swaps during
this period. (NCU and NZH did not use swaps during this period because we
believed their durations were appropriate relative to the general market.) We
also purchased a small number of U.S. Treasury note futures contracts for NAC.

This strategy also enhanced our management of the Funds' yield curve
positioning. Because of the low, longer term interest rate environment over the
past few years that, as noted, made advance refundings more attractive, the
potential call exposure for bonds in these Funds had become unevenly distributed
along the yield curve. Forward interest rate swaps provided a way to smooth out
these distributions and neutralize the Funds' over or under exposure to certain
parts of the yield curve.


                                       7



Overall, portfolio turnover was relatively light during much of this period,
because the rate environment was not advantageous for active trading. In
addition, as previously mentioned, issuance in California declined sharply
during the first eight months of 2006. In watching the market for potential new
additions for our portfolios, we focused mainly on attractively priced, premium
coupon3 bonds maturing in 15 to 25 years. Overall, we believed that bonds in
this part of the yield curve offered strong performance potential, better value,
and attractive reward opportunities without excessive risk. Since California is
a relatively high-quality state, much of the new supply was highly rated and/or
insured, and the majority of our new purchases were higher-rated credits. One of
our major purchases during this period was A+ rated bonds issued by the
California Statewide Community Development Authority for the Kaiser Permanente
Hospital System, which we added to NCU, NAC, NVX and NZH.

We also continued to emphasize maintaining weightings of lower-quality bonds in
the four uninsured Funds (NCU, NAC, NVX, and NZH) and NKL and NKX (which can
invest up to 20% of their assets in non AAA rated insured investment-grade
quality securities). However, as credit spreads continued to narrow and
municipal supply tightened in 2006, we generally found fewer attractively
structured lower-rated credit opportunities in the California market, and we
added very little in the way of new positions at the lower end of the credit
spectrum. Overall, these California Funds continued to have good exposure to the
lower-rated credit categories.

Given market concerns about oil prices, inflation and the actions of the Federal
Reserve over the past 12 months, we did see some volatility in longer term
yields over this period, with rates peaking in October 2005 and again in June
2006. These spikes in rates provided us with opportunities to sell a few of our
holdings that were purchased when yields were lower and replace them with
similar, newer credits with comparatively higher yields. This allowed us to
maintain much of the Funds' current favorable portfolio characteristics while
strengthening their future income streams. We also sold some of our holdings of
state of California general obligation bonds (G.O.) when we believed that
current prices made these bonds attractive sales candidates.


3    Premium coupon bonds are credits that, at the time of purchase, are trading
     above their par values because their coupons are higher than the current
     coupon levels of par bonds with similar durations. Historically, these
     bonds have held their value better than current coupon bonds when interest
     rates rise.

For the 12 months ended August 31, 2006, the total returns on NAV for NAC, NVX
and NZH exceeded the return on the Lehman Brothers California Tax-Exempt Bond
Index, while NCU trailed this measure. The returns on all four uninsured Funds
underperformed the Lipper California peer group. Among the insured Funds, NKL
outperformed the return on the Lehman Brothers Insured California Tax-Exempt
Bond Index, while NKX performed

in line with the index return and NPC and NCL lagged the index return. The
return on NKL performed relatively in line with the average return for the
Lipper Insured California peer group, while NPC, NCL and NKX trailed the group
average.

Factors that influenced the Funds' returns during this period included yield
curve positioning and duration management; allocations to lower-rated credits in
the four uninsured Funds, NKL, and NKX; and pre-refunding activity. The use of
hedges in NPC, NCL, NAC, NVX, NKL and NKX was also a positive contributor to the
performances of these Funds.

As the yield curve continued to flatten over the course of this period, bonds
with effective maturities between two and six years were the most adversely
impacted, generally underperforming long-intermediate bonds (those with
maturities between 17 and 22 years) and longer bonds (those with maturities of
at least 22 years). Yield curve positioning or, more specifically, greater
exposure to those parts of the yield curve that performed well helped the
performances of these Funds during this period.

Bonds rated BBB or lower and non-rated bonds generally outperformed other credit
quality sectors during this period and the four uninsured Funds as well as NKL
and NKX (which can invest up to 20% of their assets in non AAA rated insured
investment-grade quality securities) benefited from their allocations of
lower-quality credits. The performance of this sector was largely the result of
investor demand for the higher yields typically associated with lower-quality
bonds, which drove up their value. As of August 31, 2006, bonds rated BBB or
lower and non-rated bonds accounted for 15% to 18% of the of the four noninsured
Funds, while NKL and NKX each had an allocation of 6% to bonds rated BBB. This
allocation accounted for much of the performance differential between NKL and
NKX and NPC and NCL, which, as 100% insured Funds, cannot hold any lower-rated
credits.

Among the lower-rated holdings making positive contributions to the total
returns of NCU, NAC, NVX, NZH, NKL and NKX during this period were industrial
development bonds and health care (including hospitals) credits, which ranked as

revenue sectors in the Lehman Brothers municipal index, as well as bonds backed
by the 1998 master tobacco settlement agreement, which comprised approximately
1% to 4% of the portfolios of these six Funds as of August 31, 2006.

As noted earlier, we continued to see a number of advance refundings, which can
benefit the Funds through price appreciation and enhanced credit quality. During
this reporting period, advance refundings ranged from 5% to 12% of these Funds'
portfolios, with NPC and NCU representing the lower end of the range, which
hampered their performance.

While advance refundings generally enhanced performance for this 12-month
period, the rising interest rate environment meant that the Funds' holdings of
previously pre-refunded bonds tended to underperform the general municipal
market. A higher number of bond calls affecting approximately 4.5% of NCU's
portfolio (compared with approximately 1% in NAC, NVX and NZH) also detracted
from this Fund's performance.


HOW WERE THE FUNDS POSITIONED IN TERMS OF CREDIT QUALITY AND BOND CALLS AS OF
AUGUST 31, 2006?

We continued to believe that maintaining strong credit quality was an important
requirement. As of August 31, 2006, the four uninsured Funds continued to offer
excellent credit quality, with allocations of bonds rated AAA/U.S. guaranteed
and AA ranging from 69% in NAC and NZH to 72% in NVX and NCU. NPC and NCL
continued to be 100% invested in insured and/or U.S. guaranteed securities,
while NKL and NKX, which can invest up to 20% of their assets in non AAA rated
insured investment-grade quality securities, had allocated 83% and 84% of their
portfolios, respectively, to insured and U.S. guaranteed bonds.

As of August 31, 2006, potential call exposure for the period September 2006
through the end of 2008 ranged from 4% in NZH to 6% in NKL, to 10% in NVX and
NKX, 12% in NAC, 13% in NPC and NCU, and 15% in NCL. The number of actual bond
calls in all of these Funds depends largely on future market interest rates.

Dividend and Share Price
       INFORMATION



All of the Funds in this report use leverage to potentially enhance
opportunities for additional income for common shareholders. The benefits of
leveraging are tied in part to the short-term rates leveraged Funds pay their
MuniPreferred(R) shareholders. During periods of low short-term rates, these
Funds generally pay lower dividends to their MuniPreferred shareholders, which
can leave more earnings to support common share dividends. Conversely, when
short-term interest rates rise, as they did during this reporting period, the
Funds' borrowing costs also rise, reducing the extent of the benefits of
leveraging and impacting the Funds' income streams and total returns. The Funds'
income streams were also affected as the proceeds from older, higher-yielding
bonds that matured or were called were reinvested into bonds currently available
in the market, which generally offered lower yields. These factors resulted in a
single monthly dividend reduction in NKL and NKX and two in NPC, NCL, NCU, NAC,
NVX and NZH over the 12-month period ended August 31, 2006.

Due to capital gains generated by normal portfolio activity, common shareholders
of the following Funds received capital gains and net ordinary income
distributions at the end of December 2005, as follows:

All of the Funds in this report seek to pay stable dividends at rates that
reflect each Fund's past results and projected future performance. During
certain periods, each Fund may pay dividends at a rate that may be more or less
than the amount of net investment income actually earned by the Fund during the
period. If a Fund has cumulatively earned more than it has paid in dividends, it
holds the excess in reserve as undistributed net investment income (UNII) as
part of the Fund's NAV. Conversely, if a Fund has cumulatively paid dividends in
excess of its earnings, the excess constitutes negative UNII that is likewise
reflected in the Fund's NAV. Each Fund will, over time, pay all of its net
investment income as dividends to shareholders. As of August 31, 2006, NPC, NCL,
NCU, NAC, NVX, and NZH had positive UNII balances for both financial statement
and tax purposes, while NKL and NKX had negative UNII balances for financial
statement purposes and positive UNII balances for tax purposes.

     fully taxable investment in order to equal the yield of the Fund on an
     after-tax basis. It is based on a combined federal and state income tax
     rate of 34.5%. When comparing this Fund to investments that generate
     qualified dividend income, the Taxable-Equivalent Yield is lower.

1    Taxable-Equivalent Yield represents the yield that must be earned on a
     fully taxable investment in order to equal the yield of the Fund on an
     after-tax basis. It is based on a combined federal and state income tax

1    Taxable-Equivalent Yield represents the yield that must be earned on a
     fully taxable investment in order to equal the yield of the Fund on an
     after-tax basis. It is based on a combined federal and state income tax
     rate of 34.5%. When comparing this Fund to investments that generate
     qualified dividend income, the Taxable-Equivalent Yield is lower.

1    Taxable-Equivalent Yield represents the yield that must be earned on a
     fully taxable investment in order to equal the yield of the Fund on an
     after-tax basis. It is based on a combined federal and state income tax
     rate of 34.5%. When comparing this Fund to investments that generate
     qualified dividend income, the Taxable-Equivalent Yield is lower.

1    Taxable-Equivalent Yield represents the yield that must be earned on a
     fully taxable investment in order to equal the yield of the Fund on an
     after-tax basis. It is based on a combined federal and state income tax
     rate of 34.5%. When comparing this Fund to investments that generate
     qualified dividend income, the Taxable-Equivalent Yield is lower.

We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including
the portfolios of investments, of Nuveen Insured California Premium Income
Municipal Fund, Inc., Nuveen Insured California Premium Income Municipal Fund 2,

California Tax-Free Advantage Municipal Fund (the "Funds"), as of August 31,
2006, and the related statements of operations for the year then ended, the
statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then
ended, and the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated therein.
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 the standards of the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board (United States). 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. We were
not engaged to perform an audit of the Funds' internal control over financial
reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial
reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the
circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the
effectiveness of the Funds' internal control over financial reporting.
Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements and financial highlights, assessing the accounting principles used
and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of
securities owned as of August 31, 2006, by correspondence with the custodian and
brokers or by other appropriate auditing procedures where replies from brokers
were not received. 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 Insured California Premium Income Municipal Fund, Inc., Nuveen Insured
California Premium Income Municipal Fund 2, Inc., Nuveen California Premium
Income Municipal Fund, Nuveen California Dividend Advantage Municipal Fund,

indicated therein in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting
principles.

                         At least 80% of the Fund's net assets (including net
                         assets attributable to Preferred shares) are invested
                         in municipal securities that are either covered by
                         Original Issue Insurance, Secondary Market Insurance or
                         Portfolio Insurance which ensures the timely payment of
                         principal and interest. Up to 20% of the Fund's net
                         assets (including net assets attributable to Preferred
                         shares) may be invested in municipal securities that
                         are (i) either backed by an escrow or trust containing
                         sufficient U.S. Government or U.S. Government agency
                         securities (also ensuring the timely payment of
                         principal and interest), or (ii) rated, at the time of
                         investment, within the four highest grades (Baa or BBB
                         or better by Moody's, S&P or Fitch) or unrated but
                         judged to be of comparable quality by the Adviser.

                    (1)  All percentages shown in the Portfolio of Investments
                         are based on net assets applicable to Common shares
                         unless otherwise noted.

                    (2)  Optional Call Provisions (not covered by the report of
                         independent registered public accounting firm): Dates
                         (month and year) and prices of the earliest optional
                         call or redemption. There may be other call provisions
                         at varying prices at later dates. Certain
                         mortgage-backed securities may be subject to periodic
                         principal paydowns.

                    (3)  Ratings (not covered by the report of independent
                         registered public accounting firm): Using the higher of
                         Standard & Poor's or Moody's rating. Ratings below BBB
                         by Standard & Poor's Group or Baa by Moody's Investor
                         Service, Inc. are considered to be below investment
                         grade.

                    (4)  Backed by an escrow or trust containing sufficient U.S.
                         Government or U.S. Government agency securities which
                         ensure the timely payment of principal and interest.
                         Such investments are normally considered to be
                         equivalent to AAA rated securities.

                    (5)  Investment has a maturity of more than one year, but
                         has variable rate and demand features which qualify it
                         as a short-term investment. The rate disclosed is that
                         in effect at the end of the reporting period. This rate
                         changes periodically based on market conditions or a
                         specified market index.

1. GENERAL INFORMATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The California funds (the "Funds") covered in this report and their
corresponding Common share 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), Nuveen California Dividend
Advantage Municipal Fund 3 (NZH), Nuveen Insured California Dividend Advantage
Municipal Fund (NKL) and Nuveen Insured California Tax-Free Advantage Municipal
Fund (NKX). Common shares of 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 Common shares of California Premium
Income (NCU), California Dividend Advantage 2 (NVX), California Dividend
Advantage 3 (NZH), Insured California Dividend Advantage (NKL) and Insured
California Tax-Free Advantage (NKX) are traded on the American Stock Exchange.
The Funds are registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended,
as closed-end management investment companies.

Each Fund seeks to provide current income exempt from both regular federal and
California state income taxes, and in the case of Insured California Tax-Free
Advantage (NKX) the alternative minimum tax applicable to individuals, by
investing primarily in a diversified portfolio of municipal obligations issued
by state and local government authorities within the state of California or
certain U.S. territories.

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the
Funds in the preparation of their financial statements in accordance with U.S.
generally accepted accounting principles.

Investment 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
market price quotes are not readily available (which is usually the case for
municipal securities), the pricing service establishes fair 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,
evaluations of anticipated cash flows or collateral and general market
conditions. Prices of forward swap contacts are also provided by an independent
pricing service approved by each Fund's Board of Directors/Trustees. Futures
contracts are valued using the closing settlement price, or, in the absence or
such a price, at the mean of the bid and asked prices. If the pricing service is
unable to supply a price for a municipal bond, forward swap contract or futures
contact, each Fund may use a market price or fair market value quote provided by
a major broker/dealer in such investments. If it is determined that the market
price or fair market value for an investment is unavailable or inappropriate,
the Board of Trustees of the Funds, or its designee, may establish a fair value
for the investment. Temporary investments in securities that have variable rate
and demand features qualifying them as short-term investments are valued at
amortized cost, which approximates market value.

Investment Transactions

Investment transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Realized gains and
losses from transactions are determined on the specific identification method.
Investments purchased on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis may have
extended settlement periods. Any investments so purchased are subject to market
fluctuation during this period. The Funds have instructed the custodian to
segregate assets with a current value at least equal to the amount of the
when-issued/delayed delivery purchase commitments. At August 31, 2006, Insured
California Premium Income (NPC) and Insured California Premium Income 2 (NCL)
had outstanding when-issued/delayed delivery purchase commitments of $3,733,339
and $5,745,167, respectively. There were no such outstanding purchase
commitments in any of the other Funds.

Investment Income

Interest income, which includes the amortization of premiums and accretion of
discounts for financial reporting purposes, is recorded on an accrual basis.
Investment income also includes paydown gains and losses, if any.

Income Taxes

Each Fund is a separate taxpayer for federal income tax purposes. Each Fund
intends to distribute substantially all net investment income and net capital
gains to shareholders and to otherwise comply with the requirements of
Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment
companies. 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, and in the case of Insured California Tax-Free Advantage (NKX) the
alternative minimum tax applicable to individuals, to retain such tax-exempt
status when distributed to shareholders of the Funds. All monthly tax-exempt
income dividends paid during the fiscal year ended August 31, 2006, have been
designated Exempt Interest Dividends. Net realized capital gains and ordinary
income distributions paid by the Funds are subject to federal taxation.

Notes to
    FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)



Dividends and Distributions to Common Shareholders

Dividends from tax-exempt net investment income are declared monthly. 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 Common 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 U.S.
generally accepted accounting principles.

Preferred Shares

The Funds have issued and outstanding Preferred shares, $25,000 stated value per
share, as a means of effecting financial leverage. Each Fund's Preferred shares
are issued in one or more Series. The dividend rate paid by the Funds on each
Series is determined every seven days, pursuant to a dutch auction process
overseen by the auction agent, and is payable at the end of each rate period.
The number of Preferred shares outstanding, by Series and in total, for each
Fund is as follows:

Insurance

Insured California Premium Income (NPC) and Insured California Premium Income 2
(NCL) invest only 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.

Insured California Dividend Advantage (NKL) and Insured California Tax-Free
Advantage (NKX) invest at least 80% of their net assets (including net assets
attributable to Preferred shares) in municipal securities that are covered by
insurance. Each Fund may also invest up to 20% of its net assets (including net
assets attributable to Preferred shares) in municipal securities which are
either (i) backed by an escrow or trust containing sufficient U.S. Government or
U.S. Government agency securities, or (ii) rated, at the time of investment,
within the four highest grades (Baa or BBB or better by Moody's, S&P or Fitch)
or unrated but judged to be of comparable quality by the Adviser.


                                       72



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' Common 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, in contrast, 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 Common share net
asset value of the Funds 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.

Forward Swap Transactions

The Funds are authorized to invest in certain derivative financial instruments.
The Funds' use of forward interest rate swap transactions is intended to help
the Fund manage its overall interest rate sensitivity, either shorter or longer,
generally to more closely align the Fund's interest rate sensitivity with that
of the broader municipal market. Forward interest rate swap transactions involve
each Fund's agreement with a counterparty to pay, in the future, a fixed or
variable rate payment in exchange for the counterparty paying the Fund a
variable or fixed rate payment, the accruals for which would begin at a
specified date in the future (the "effective date"). The amount of the payment
obligation is based on the notional amount of the forward swap contract and the
termination date of the swap (which is akin to a bond's maturity). The value of
the Fund's swap commitment would increase or decrease based primarily on the
extent to which long-term interest rates for bonds having a maturity of the
swap's termination date increases or decreases. The Funds may terminate a swap
contract prior to the effective date, at which point a realized gain or loss is
recognized. When a forward swap is terminated, it ordinarily does not involve
the delivery of securities or other underlying assets or principal, but rather
is settled in cash on a net basis. Each Fund intends, but is not obligated, to
terminate its forward swaps before the effective date. Accordingly, the risk of
loss with respect to the swap counterparty on such transactions is limited to
the credit risk associated with a counterparty failing to honor its commitment
to pay any realized gain to the Fund upon termination. To reduce such credit
risk, all counterparties are required to pledge collateral daily (based on the
daily valuation of each swap) on behalf of each Fund with a value approximately
equal to the amount of any unrealized gain above a pre-determined threshold.
Reciprocally, when any of the Funds have an unrealized loss on a swap contract,
the Funds have instructed the custodian to pledge assets of the Funds as
collateral with a value approximately equal to the amount of the unrealized loss
above a pre-determined threshold. Collateral pledges are monitored and
subsequently adjusted if and when the swap valuations fluctuate, either up or
down, by at least the predetermined threshold amount.

Futures Contracts

The Funds are authorized to invest in futures contracts for the purposes of
hedging against changes in values of a Fund's securities or changes in the
prevailing levels of interest rates, as a substitute for a position in the
underlying asset, or to enhance the portfolio's return. Upon entering into a
futures contract, a Fund is required to deposit with the broker an amount of
cash or liquid securities equal to a specified percentage of the contract
amount. This is known as the "initial margin." Subsequent payments ("variation
margin") are made or received by a Fund each day, depending on the daily
fluctuation of the value of the contract.

During the period the futures contract is open, changes in the value of the
contract are recognized as an unrealized gain or loss by "marking-to-market" on
a daily basis to reflect the changes in market value of the contract. When the
contract is closed, a Fund records realized gains or losses equal to the
difference between the value of the contract on the closing date and value of
the contract when originally entered into.

Risks of investments in futures contracts include the possible adverse movement
of the value of the securities or indices underlying the contracts, the
possibility that there may not be a liquid secondary market for the contracts
and/or that a change in the value of the contract may not correlate with a
change in the value of the underlying securities or indices.

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.

Indemnifications

Under the Funds' organizational documents, their Officers and Directors/Trustees
are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of
their duties to the Funds. In addition, in the normal course of business, the
Funds enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications to other
parties. The Funds' maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this
would involve future claims that may be made against the Funds that have not yet
occurred. However, the Funds have not had prior claims or losses pursuant to
these contracts and expect the risk of loss to be remote.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. 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 applicable to Common shares from operations during the
reporting period. Actual results may differ from those estimates.

4. INCOME TAX INFORMATION

The following information is presented on an income tax basis. Differences
between amounts for financial statement and federal income tax purposes are
primarily due to the treatment of paydown gains and losses, timing differences
in recognizing taxable market discount and timing differences in recognizing
certain gains and losses on investment transactions. To the extent that
differences arise that are permanent in nature, such amounts are reclassified
within the capital accounts on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities, based on
their Federal tax basis treatment and have no impact on the net asset value of
the Funds. Temporary differences do not require reclassification.

At August 31, 2006, the cost of investments was as follows:

5. MANAGEMENT FEE AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES

Each Fund's management fee is separated into two components - a complex-level
component, based on the aggregate amount of all fund assets managed by Nuveen
Asset Management (the "Adviser"), a wholly owned subsidary of Nuveen
Investments, Inc. ("Nuveen"), and a specific fund-level component, based only on
the amount of assets within each individual fund. This pricing structure enables
Nuveen fund shareholders to benefit from growth in the assets within each
individual fund as well as from growth in the amount of complex-wide assets
managed by the Adviser.

The annual fund-level fee, payable monthly, for each Fund is based upon the
average daily net assets (including net assets attributable to Preferred shares)
of each Fund as follows:

                                         INSURED CALIFORNIA PREMIUM INCOME (NPC)
AVERAGE DAILY NET ASSETS               INSURED CALIFORNIA PREMIUM INCOME 2 (NCL)

The annual complex-level fee, payable monthly, which is additive to the
fund-level fee, for all Nuveen sponsored funds in the U.S., is based on the
aggregate amount of total fund assets managed as stated in the table below. As

For Managed Assets over $91 billion (2)                                   .1400
================================================================================

(1)  The complex-level fee component of the management fee for the funds is
     calculated based upon the aggregate Managed Assets ("Managed Assets" means
     the average daily net assets of each fund including assets attributable to
     all types of leverage used by the Nuveen funds) of Nuveen-sponsored funds
     in the U.S.

(2)  With respect to the complex-wide Managed Assets over $91 billion, the fee
     rate or rates that will apply to such assets will be determined at a later
     date. In the unlikely event that complex-wide Managed Assets reach $91
     billion prior to a determination of the complex-level fee rate or rates to
     be applied to Managed Assets in excess of $91 billion, the complex-level
     fee rate for such complex-wide Managed Assets shall be .1400% until such
     time as a different rate or rates is determined.

The management 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/Trustees who are affiliated with
the Adviser or to its Officers, all of whom receive remuneration for their
services to the Funds from the Adviser or its affiliates. The Board of
Directors/Trustees has adopted a deferred compensation plan for independent
Directors/Trustees that enables Directors/Trustees to elect to defer receipt of
all or a portion of the annual compensation they are entitled to receive from
certain Nuveen advised Funds. Under the plan, deferred amounts are treated as
though equal dollar amounts had been invested in shares of select Nuveen advised
Funds.

For the first ten years of California Dividend Advantage's (NAC) operations, the
Adviser has agreed to reimburse the Fund, as a percentage of average daily net
assets (including net assets attributable to Preferred shares), for fees and
expenses in the amounts and for the time periods set forth below:

6. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENT

Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 48

On July 13, 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) released FASB
Interpretation No. 48 Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes (FIN 48). FIN
48 provides guidance for how uncertain tax positions should be recognized,
measured, presented and disclosed in the financial statements. FIN 48 requires
the evaluation of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of
preparing the Fund's tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are
"more-likely-than-not" of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax
positions not deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold would be
recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year. Adoption of FIN 48 is
required for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006 and is to be applied
to all open tax years as of the effective date. At this time, management is
evaluating the implications of FIN 48 and does not expect the adoption of FIN 48
will have a significant impact on the net assets or results of operations of the
Funds.

                        ANNUAL INVESTMENT
                        MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT
                        APPROVAL PROCESS


The Board of Trustees is responsible for overseeing the performance of the
investment adviser to the Funds and determining whether to continue the advisory
arrangements. At a meeting held on May 23-25, 2006 (the "May Meeting"), the
Board of Trustees of the Funds, including the independent Trustees, unanimously
approved the continuance of the Investment Management Agreement between each
Fund and NAM (the "Fund Adviser").

THE APPROVAL PROCESS

During the course of the year, the Board received a wide variety of materials
relating to the services provided by the Fund Adviser and the performance of
each Fund. To assist the Board in its evaluation of the advisory contract with
the Fund Adviser at the May Meeting, the independent Trustees received extensive
materials in advance of their meeting which outlined, among other things:

     o    the nature, extent and quality of services provided by the Fund
          Adviser;

     o    the organization and business operations of the Fund Adviser,
          including the responsibilities of various departments and key
          personnel;

     o    the Fund's past performance, the Fund's performance compared to funds
          of similar investment objectives compiled by an independent third
          party and to customized benchmarks;

     o    the profitability of the Fund Adviser and certain industry
          profitability analyses for unaffiliated advisers;

     o    the expenses of the Fund Adviser in providing the various services;

     o    the advisory fees (gross and net management fees) and total expense
          ratios of the Fund, including comparisons of such fees and expenses
          with those of comparable, unaffiliated funds based on information and
          data provided by Lipper (the "Peer Universe") as well as compared to a
          subset of funds within the Peer Universe (the "Peer Group") to the
          respective Fund (as applicable);

     o    the advisory fees the Fund Adviser assesses to other types of
          investment products or clients;

     o    the soft dollar practices of the Fund Adviser, if any; and

     o    from independent legal counsel, a legal memorandum describing, among
          other things, the duties of the Trustees under the Investment Company
          Act of 1940 (the "1940 Act") as well as the general principles of
          relevant state law in reviewing and approving advisory contracts; the
          requirements of the 1940 Act in such matters; an adviser's fiduciary
          duty with respect to advisory agreements and compensation; the
          standards used by courts in determining whether investment company
          boards of directors have fulfilled their duties; and factors to be
          considered by the Board in voting on advisory agreements.

At the May Meeting, the Fund Adviser made a presentation to and responded to
questions from the Board. After the presentations and after reviewing the
written materials, the independent Trustees met privately with their legal
counsel to review the Board's duties in reviewing advisory contracts and
consider the renewal of the advisory contracts. It is with this background that
the Trustees considered the advisory contract with the Fund Adviser. The
independent Trustees, in consultation with independent counsel, reviewed the
factors set out in judicial decisions and SEC directives relating to the renewal
of advisory contracts. As outlined in more detail below, the Trustees considered
all factors they believed relevant with respect to each Fund, including the
following: (a) the nature, extent and quality of the services to be provided by
the Fund Adviser; (b) the investment performance of the Fund and the Fund
Adviser; (c) the costs of the services to be provided and profitability of the
Fund Adviser and its affiliates; (d) the extent to which economies of scale
would be realized as the Fund grows; and (e) whether fee levels reflect these
economies of scale for the benefit of Fund investors.

A.   NATURE, EXTENT AND QUALITY OF SERVICES

In reviewing the Fund Adviser, the Trustees considered the nature, extent and
quality of the Fund Adviser's services. The Trustees reviewed materials
outlining, among other things, the Fund Adviser's organization and business; the
types of services that the Fund Adviser or its affiliates provide and are
expected to provide to the Funds; the performance record of the applicable Fund
(as described in further detail below); and any initiatives and enhancements
Nuveen has taken for its municipal fund product line. In connection with their
continued service as Trustees, the Trustees also have a good understanding of
the Fund Adviser's organization, operations and personnel. In this regard, the
Trustees are familiar with and have evaluated the professional experience,
qualifications and credentials of the Fund Adviser's personnel. The Trustees
further reviewed materials describing, among other things, the teams and
personnel involved in the investment, research, risk-management and operational
processes involved in managing municipal funds


                                       90



and their respective functions. Given the Trustees' experience with the Funds
and Fund Adviser, the Trustees recognized the demonstrated history of care and
depth of experience of the respective personnel in managing these Funds. In this
regard, the Trustees considered the continued quality of the Fund Adviser's
investment process in making portfolio management decisions as well as
additional refinements and improvements adopted to the portfolio management
processes noted below. With respect to the services provided to municipal funds,
including the Funds, the Trustees noted that the Fund Adviser continues to make
refinements to its portfolio management process including, among other things,
the increased use of derivatives to enhance management of risk, additional
analytical software for research staff and improved municipal pricing processes.

In addition to advisory services, the independent Trustees considered the
quality of any administrative or non-advisory services provided. The Fund
Adviser provides the Funds with such administrative and other services
(exclusive of, and in addition to, any such services provided by others for the
Funds) and officers and other personnel as are necessary for the operations of
the respective Fund. In connection with the review of the Investment Management
Agreement, the Trustees considered the extent and quality of these other
services which include, among other things, providing: product management (e.g.,
product positioning, performance benchmarking, risk management); fund
administration (e.g., daily net asset value pricing and reconciliation, tax
reporting, fulfilling regulatory filing requirements); oversight of third party
service providers; administration of board relations (e.g., organizing board
meetings and preparing related materials); compliance (e.g., monitoring
compliance with investment policies and guidelines and regulatory requirements);
and legal support (e.g., helping prepare and file registration statements,
amendments thereto, proxy statements and responding to regulatory requests
and/or inquiries). As the Funds operate in a highly regulated industry and given
the importance of compliance, the Trustees considered, in particular, the
additions of experienced personnel to the compliance teams and the enhancements
to technology and related systems to support the compliance activities for the
Funds (including a new reporting system for quarterly portfolio holdings).

In addition to the foregoing, the Trustees also noted the additional services
that the Fund Adviser or its affiliates provide to closed-end funds, including,
in particular, secondary market support activities. The Trustees recognized
Nuveen's continued commitment to supporting the secondary market for the common
shares of its closed-end funds through a variety of initiatives designed to
raise investor and analyst awareness and understanding of closed-end funds.
These efforts include providing advertising and other media relations programs,
continued contact with analysts, maintaining and enhancing its website for
closed-end funds, and targeted advisor communication programs. With respect to
funds that utilize leverage through the issuance of preferred shares, the
Trustees noted Nuveen's continued support for the preferred shares by
maintaining, among other things, an in-house preferred trading desk; designating
a product manager whose responsibilities include creating and disseminating
product information and managing relations in connection with the preferred
share auction; and maintaining systems necessary to test compliance with rating
agency requirements.

Based on their review, the Trustees found that, overall, the nature, extent and
quality of services provided (and expected to be provided) to the respective
Funds under the Investment Management Agreement were of a high level and were
satisfactory.

B.   THE INVESTMENT PERFORMANCE OF THE FUND AND FUND ADVISER

The Board considered the investment performance for each Fund, including the
Fund's historic performance as well as its performance compared to funds with
similar investment objectives identified by an independent third party (the
"Performance Peer Group") and portfolio level performance against customized
benchmarks, as described below. In evaluating the performance information, in
certain instances, the Trustees noted that the closest Performance Peer Group
for a Fund still may not adequately reflect such Fund's investment objectives,
strategies and portfolio duration, thereby limiting the usefulness of the
comparisons of such Fund's performance with that of the Performance Peer Group.
With respect to state specific municipal funds, the Trustees recognized that
certain state municipal funds do not have a corresponding state specific
Performance Peer Group in which case their performance is measured against a
more general municipal category for various states. The closed-end state
municipal funds that do not have corresponding state-specific Performance Peer
Groups are from Arizona, Connecticut, Georgia, Maryland, Massachusetts,
Missouri, North Carolina, Ohio, Texas, and Virginia. Further, due to a lack of
state-specific unleveraged categories, certain unleveraged state municipal funds
are included in their leveraged state category (such as, the Nuveen California
Select Tax-Free Income Fund, Nuveen California Municipal Value Fund, Nuveen New
York Select Tax-Free Income Fund and Nuveen New York Municipal Value Fund).

In reviewing performance, the Trustees reviewed performance information
including, among other things, total return information compared with the Fund's
Performance Peer Group for the one-, three- and five-year periods (as
applicable) ending December 31, 2005. The Trustees also reviewed the Fund's
portfolio level performance (which does not reflect fund level fees and
expenses) compared to customized portfolio-level benchmarks for the one- and
three-year periods ending December 31, 2005 (as applicable). This analysis is
designed to assess the efficacy of investment decisions against appropriate
measures of risk and total return, within specific market segments. This
information supplements the Fund performance information provided to the Board
at each of their quarterly meetings. Based on their review, the Trustees
determined that the respective Fund's absolute and relative investment
performance over time had been satisfactory.

C.   FEES, EXPENSES AND PROFITABILITY

     1. FEES AND EXPENSES

     In evaluating the management fees and expenses of a Fund, the Board
     reviewed, among other things, the Fund's advisory fees (net and gross
     management fees) and total expense ratios (before and after expense
     reimbursements and/or waivers) in absolute terms as well as comparisons to
     the gross management fees (before waivers), net management fees (after
     waivers) and total expense ratios (before and after waivers) of comparable
     funds in the Peer Universe and the Peer Group. The Trustees reviewed data
     regarding the construction of Peer Groups as well as the methods of
     measurement for the fee and expense analysis and the performance analysis.
     In certain cases, due to the small number of peers in the Peer Universe,
     the Peer Universe and Peer Group may be the same. Further, the Trustees
     recognized that in certain cases the closest Peer Universe and/or Peer
     Group did not adequately reflect the Fund's investment objectives and
     strategies limiting the usefulness of comparisons. In reviewing
     comparisons,


                                       91



                        ANNUAL INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT
                        AGREEMENT APPROVAL PROCESS (continued)



     the Trustees also considered the size of the Peer Universe and/or Peer
     Group, the composition of the Peer Group (including differences in the use
     of leverage and insurance) as well as differing levels of fee waivers
     and/or expense reimbursements. In this regard, the Trustees considered the
     fund-level and complex-wide breakpoint schedules (described in further
     detail below) and any fee waivers and reimbursements provided by Nuveen
     (applicable, in particular, for certain funds launched since 1999). Based
     on their review of the fee and expense information provided, the Trustees
     determined that each Fund's net total expense ratio was within an
     acceptable range compared to peers.

     2. COMPARISONS WITH THE FEES OF OTHER CLIENTS

     The Trustees further reviewed data comparing the advisory fees of the Fund
     Adviser with fees the Fund Adviser charges to other clients, including
     municipal managed accounts. In general, the fees charged for separate
     accounts are somewhat lower than the fees assessed to the Funds. The
     Trustees recognized that the differences in fees are attributable to a
     variety of factors, including the differences in services provided, product
     distribution, portfolio investment policies, investor profiles, account
     sizes and regulatory requirements. The Trustees noted, in particular, that
     the range of services provided to the Funds is more extensive than that
     provided to managed separate accounts. As described in further detail
     above, such additional services include, but are not limited to, providing:
     product management, fund administration, oversight of third party service
     providers, administration of board relations, and legal support. Funds
     further operate in a highly regulated industry requiring extensive
     compliance functions compared to the other investment products. In addition
     to the costs of the additional services, administrative costs may also be
     greater for funds as the average account size for separate accounts is
     notably larger than the retail accounts of funds. Given the differences in
     the product structures, particularly the extensive services provided to
     closed-end municipal funds, the Trustees believe such facts justify the
     different levels of fees.

     3. PROFITABILITY OF FUND ADVISER

     In conjunction with its review of fees, the Trustees also considered the
     profitability of Nuveen Investments for advisory activities (which
     incorporated Nuveen's wholly-owned affiliated sub-advisers). The Trustees
     reviewed data comparing Nuveen's profitability with other fund sponsors
     prepared by three independent third party service providers as well as
     comparisons of the revenues, expenses and profits margins of various
     unaffiliated management firms with similar amounts of assets under
     management prepared by Nuveen. The Trustees further reviewed the 2005
     Annual Report for Nuveen Investments. In considering profitability, the
     Trustees recognized the inherent limitations in determining profitability
     as well as the difficulties in comparing the profitability of other
     unaffiliated advisers. Profitability may be affected by numerous factors,
     including the methodology for allocating expenses, the adviser's business
     mix, the types of funds managed, the adviser's capital structure and cost
     of capital. Further, individual fund or product line profitability of other
     sponsors is generally not publicly available. Accordingly, the
     profitability information that is publicly available from various
     investment advisory or management firms may not be representative of the
     industry.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in reviewing profitability, the Trustees reviewed
Nuveen's methodology and assumptions for allocating expenses across product
lines to determine profitability. In this regard, the methods of allocation used
appeared reasonable. The Trustees also, to the extent available, compared
Nuveen's profitability margins (including pre- and post-marketing profit
margins) with the profitability of various unaffiliated management firms. The
Trustees noted that Nuveen's profitability is enhanced due to its efficient
internal business model. The Trustees also recognized that while a number of
factors affect profitability, Nuveen's profitability may change as fee waivers
and/or expense reimbursement commitments of Nuveen to various funds in the
Nuveen complex expire. To keep apprised of profitability and developments that
may affect profitability, the Trustees have requested profitability analysis be
provided periodically during the year. Based on their review, the Trustees were
satisfied that the Fund Adviser's level of profitability was reasonable in light
of the services provided.

In evaluating the reasonableness of the compensation, the Trustees also
considered any other revenues paid to the Fund Adviser as well as any indirect
benefits (such as soft dollar arrangements, if any) the Fund Adviser and its
affiliates are expected to receive that are directly attributable to their
management of the Funds, if any. See Section E below for additional information.
Based on their review of the overall fee arrangements of the applicable Fund,
the Trustees determined that the advisory fees and expenses of the respective
Fund were reasonable.


                                       92



D. ECONOMIES OF SCALE AND WHETHER FEE LEVELS REFLECT THESE ECONOMIES OF SCALE

With respect to economies of scale, the Trustees recognized the potential
benefits resulting from the costs of a fund being spread over a larger asset
base as a fund grows. To help ensure the shareholders share in these benefits,
the Trustees have reviewed and considered the breakpoints in the advisory fee
schedules that reduce advisory fees as the applicable Fund's assets grow. In
addition to advisory fee breakpoints as assets in a respective Fund rise, after
lengthy discussions with management, the Board also approved a complex-wide fee
arrangement that was introduced on August 1, 2004. Pursuant to the complex-wide
fee arrangement, the fees of the funds in the Nuveen complex, including the
Funds, are reduced as the assets in the fund complex reach certain levels. In
evaluating the complex-wide fee arrangement, the Trustees considered, among
other things, the historic and expected fee savings to shareholders as assets
grow, the amount of fee reductions at various asset levels, and that the
arrangement would extend to all funds in the Nuveen complex. The Trustees noted
that 2005 was the first full year to reflect the fee reductions from the complex
wide fee arrangement. The Trustees also considered the impact, if any, the
complex-wide fee arrangement may have on the level of services provided. Based
on their review, the Trustees concluded that the breakpoint schedule and
complex-wide fee arrangement currently was acceptable and desirable in providing
benefits from economies of scale to shareholders.

E. INDIRECT BENEFITS

In evaluating fees, the Trustees also considered any indirect benefits or
profits the Fund Adviser or its affiliates may receive as a result of its
relationship with each Fund. In this regard, the Trustees considered revenues
received by affiliates of the Fund Adviser for serving as agent at Nuveen's
preferred trading desk and for serving as a co-manager in the initial public
offering of new closed-end exchange traded funds.

In addition to the above, the Trustees considered whether the Fund Adviser
received any benefits from soft dollar arrangements. With respect to NAM, the
Trustees noted that NAM does not currently have any soft dollar arrangements and
does not pay excess brokerage commissions (or spreads on principal transactions)
in order to receive research services; however, the Fund Adviser may from time
to time receive and have access to research generally provided to institutional
clients.

The Trustees did not identify any single factor discussed previously as
all-important or controlling. The Trustees, including a majority of independent
Trustees, concluded that the terms of the Investment Management Agreements were
fair and reasonable, that the Fund Adviser's fees are reasonable in light of the
services provided to each Fund, and that the renewal of the Investment
Management Agreements should be approved.

Reinvest Automatically
       EASILY AND CONVENIENTLY

Sidebar text: NUVEEN MAKES REINVESTING EASY. A PHONE CALL IS ALL IT TAKES TO SET
UP YOUR REINVESTMENT ACCOUNT.



NUVEEN CLOSED-END FUNDS DIVIDEND REINVESTMENT PLAN

Your Nuveen Exchange-Traded Closed-End 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
the 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.

FLEXIBLE

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.

CEO CERTIFICATION DISCLOSURE

Each Fund's Chief Executive Officer has submitted to the New York Stock Exchange
the annual CEO certification as required by Section 303A.12(a) of the NYSE
Listed Company Manual.

Each Fund has filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission the
certification of its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer
required by Section 302 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.

GLOSSARY OF TERMS USED IN THIS REPORT

AVERAGE ANNUAL TOTAL RETURN: This is a commonly used method to express an
investment's performance over a particular, usually multi-year time period. It
expresses the return that would have been necessary each year to equal the
investment's actual cumulative performance (including change in NAV or market
price and reinvested dividends and capital gains distributions, if any) over the
time period being considered.

AVERAGE EFFECTIVE MATURITY: The average of all the maturities of the bonds in a
Fund's portfolio, computed by weighting each maturity date (the date the
security comes due) by the market value of the security. This figure does not
account for the likelihood of prepayments or the exercise of call provisions.

LEVERAGE-ADJUSTED DURATION: Duration is a measure of the expected period over
which a bond's principal and interest will be paid, and consequently is a
measure of the sensitivity of a bond's or bond Fund's value to changes when
market interest rates change. Generally, the longer a bond's or Fund's duration,
the more the price of the bond or Fund will change as interest rates change.
Leverage-adjusted duration takes into account the leveraging process for a Fund
and therefore is longer than the duration of the Fund's portfolio of bonds.

MARKET YIELD (ALSO KNOWN AS DIVIDEND YIELD OR CURRENT YIELD): An investment's

ITEM 2. CODE OF ETHICS.

As of the end of the period covered by this report, the registrant has adopted a
code of ethics that applies to the registrant's principal executive officer,
principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, or
persons performing similar functions. There were no amendments to or waivers
from the Code during the period covered by this report. The registrant has
posted the code of ethics on its website at www.nuveen.com/etf. (To view the
code, click on the Investor Resources drop down menu box, click on Fund
Governance and then click on Code of Conduct.)

ITEM 3. AUDIT COMMITTEE FINANCIAL EXPERT.

The registrant's Board of Directors or Trustees determined that the registrant
has at least one "audit committee financial expert" (as defined in Item 3 of
Form N-CSR) serving on its Audit Committee. The registrant's audit committee
financial expert is Jack B. Evans, Chairman of the Audit Committee, who is
"independent" for purposes of Item 3 of Form N-CSR.

Mr. Evans was formerly President and Chief Operating Officer of SCI Financial
Group, Inc., a full service registered broker-dealer and registered investment
adviser ("SCI"). As part of his role as President and Chief Operating Officer,
Mr. Evans actively supervised the Chief Financial Officer (the "CFO") and
actively supervised the CFO's preparation of financial statements and other
filings with various regulatory authorities. In such capacity, Mr. Evans was
actively involved in the preparation of SCI's financial statements and the
resolution of issues raised in connection therewith. Mr. Evans has also served
on the audit committee of various reporting companies. At such companies, Mr.
Evans was involved in the oversight of audits, audit plans, and the preparation
of financial statements. Mr. Evans also formerly chaired the audit committee of
the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago.

ITEM 4. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTANT FEES AND SERVICES.

           Nuveen Insured California Tax-Free Advantage Municipal Fund

The following tables show the amount of fees that Ernst & Young LLP, the Fund's
auditor, billed to the Fund during the Fund's last two full fiscal years. For
engagements with Ernst & Young LLP the Audit Committee approved in advance all
audit services and non-audit services that Ernst & Young LLP provided to the
Fund, except for those non-audit services that were subject to the pre-approval
exception under Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X (the "pre-approval exception"). The
pre-approval exception for services provided directly to the Fund waives the
pre-approval requirement for services other than audit, review or attest
services if: (A) the aggregate amount of all such services provided constitutes
no more than 5% of the total amount of revenues paid by the Fund to its
accountant during the fiscal year in which the services are provided; (B) the
Fund did not recognize the services as non-audit services at the time of the
engagement; and (C) the services are promptly brought to the Audit Committee's
attention, and the Committee (or its delegate) approves the services before the
audit is completed.

The Audit Committee has delegated certain pre-approval responsibilities to its
Chairman (or, in his absence, any other member of the Audit Committee).

(1)  "Audit Fees" are the aggregate fees billed for professional services for
     the audit of the Fund's annual financial statements and services provided
     in connection with statutory and regulatory filings or engagements.

(2)  "Audit Related Fees" are the aggregate fees billed for assurance and
     related services reasonably related to the performance of the audit or
     review of financial statements and are not reported under "Audit Fees".

(3)  "Tax Fees" are the aggregate fees billed for professional services for tax
     advice, tax compliance, and tax planning.

(4)  "All Other Fees" are the aggregate fees billed for products and services
     other than "Audit Fees", "Audit Related Fees", and "Tax Fees".


                 SERVICES THAT THE FUND'S AUDITOR BILLED TO THE
                  ADVISER AND AFFILIATED FUND SERVICE PROVIDERS

The following tables show the amount of fees billed by Ernst & Young LLP to
Nuveen Asset Management ("NAM" or the "Adviser"), and any entity controlling,
controlled by or under common control with NAM ("Control Affiliate") that
provides ongoing services to the Fund ("Affiliated Fund Service Provider"), for
engagements directly related to the Fund's operations and financial reporting,
during the Fund's last two full fiscal years.

The tables also show the percentage of fees subject to the pre-approval
exception. The pre-approval exception for services provided to the Adviser and
any Affiliated Fund Service Provider (other than audit, review or attest
services) waives the pre-approval requirement if: (A) the aggregate amount of
all such services provided constitutes no more than 5% of the total amount of
revenues paid to Ernst & Young LLP by the Fund, the Adviser and Affiliated Fund
Service Providers during the fiscal year in which the services are provided that
would have to be pre-approved by the Audit Committee; (B) the Fund did not
recognize the services as non-audit services at the time of the engagement; and
(C) the services are promptly brought to the Audit Committee's attention, and
the Committee (or its delegate) approves the services before the Fund's audit is
completed.

(1)  The amounts reported for the Fund under the column heading "Tax Fees"
     represents amounts billed to the Adviser exclusively for the preparation
     for the Fund's tax return, the cost of which is borne by the Adviser. In
     the aggregate, for all Nuveen funds for which Ernst & Young LLP serves as
     independent registered public accounting firm, these fees amounted to
     $275,000 in 2006 and $282,575 in 2005.


                               NON-AUDIT SERVICES

The following table shows the amount of fees that Ernst & Young LLP billed
during the Fund's last two full fiscal years for non-audit services. The Audit
Committee is required to pre-approve non-audit services that Ernst & Young LLP
provides to the Adviser and any Affiliated Fund Services Provider, if the
engagement related directly to the Fund's operations and financial reporting
(except for those subject to the de minimis exception described above). The
Audit Committee requested and received information from Ernst & Young LLP about
any non-audit services that Ernst & Young LLP rendered during the Fund's last
fiscal year to the Adviser and any Affiliated Fund Service Provider. The
Committee considered this information in evaluating Ernst & Young LLP's
independence.

"Non-Audit Fees billed to Adviser" for both fiscal year ends represent "Tax
Fees" billed to Adviser in their respective amounts from the previous table.


Audit Committee Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures. Generally, the Audit
Committee must approve (i) all non-audit services to be performed for the Fund
by the Fund's independent accountants and (ii) all audit and non-audit services
to be performed by the Fund's independent accountants for the Affiliated Fund
Service Providers with respect to operations and financial reporting of the
Fund. Regarding tax and research projects conducted by the independent
accountants for the Fund and Affiliated Fund Service Providers (with respect to
operations and financial reports of the Fund) such engagements will be (i)
pre-approved by the Audit Committee if they are expected to be for amounts
greater than $10,000; (ii) reported to the Audit Committee chairman for his
verbal approval prior to engagement if they are expected to be for amounts under
$10,000 but greater than $5,000; and (iii) reported to the Audit Committee at
the next Audit Committee meeting if they are expected to be for an amount under
$5,000.

ITEM 5. AUDIT COMMITTEE OF LISTED REGISTRANTS.

The registrant's Board of Directors or Trustees has a separately designated
Audit Committee established in accordance with Section 3(a)(58)(A) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (15 U.S.C. 78c(a)(58)(A)). The
members of the audit committee are Robert P. Bremner, Lawrence H. Brown, Jack B.
Evans, William J. Schneider and Eugene S. Sunshine.

ITEM 6. SCHEDULE OF INVESTMENTS.

See Portfolio of Investments in Item 1.

ITEM 7.  DISCLOSURE OF PROXY VOTING POLICIES AND PROCEDURES FOR CLOSED-END
MANAGEMENT INVESTMENT COMPANIES.

The registrant invests its assets primarily in municipal bonds and cash
management securities. On rare occasions the registrant may acquire, directly or
through a special purpose vehicle, equity securities of a municipal bond issuer
whose bonds the registrant already owns when such bonds have deteriorated or are
expected shortly to deteriorate significantly in credit quality. The purpose of
acquiring equity securities generally will be to acquire control of the
municipal bond issuer and to seek to prevent the credit deterioration or
facilitate the liquidation or other workout of the distressed issuer's credit
problem. In the course of exercising control of a distressed municipal issuer,
NAM may pursue the registrant's interests in a variety of ways, which may entail
negotiating and executing consents, agreements and other arrangements, and
otherwise influencing the management of the issuer. NAM does not consider such
activities proxy voting for purposes of Rule 206(4)-6 under the 1940 Act, but
nevertheless provides reports to the registrant's Board of Trustees on its
control activities on a quarterly basis.

In the rare event that a municipal issuer were to issue a proxy or that the
registrant were to receive a proxy issued by a cash management security, NAM
would either engage an independent third party to determine how the proxy should
be voted or vote the proxy with the consent, or based on the instructions, of
the registrant's Board of Trustees or its representative. A member of NAM's
legal department would oversee the administration of the voting, and ensure that
records were maintained in accordance with Rule 206(4)-6, reports were filed
with the SEC on Form N-PX, and the results provided to the registrant's Board of
Trustees and made available to shareholders as required by applicable rules.

ITEM 8. PORTFOLIO MANAGERS OF CLOSED-END MANAGEMENT INVESTMENT COMPANIES.

THE PORTFOLIO MANAGER

The following individual has primary responsibility for the day-to-day
implementation of the registrant's investment strategies:

NAME                 FUND
Scott R. Romans      Nuveen Insured California Tax-Free Advantage Municipal Fund

Other Accounts Managed. In addition to managing the registrant, the portfolio
manager is also primarily responsible for the day-to-day portfolio management of
the following accounts:


                                                              NUMBER OF
PORTFOLIO MANAGER      TYPE OF ACCOUNT MANAGED                ACCOUNTS        ASSETS
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                                                     
 Scott R. Romans       Registered Investment Company          28              $6.15 billion
                       Other Pooled Investment Vehicles        0              $0
                       Other Accounts                          4              $.25 million

*    Assets are as of August 31, 2006. None of the assets in these accounts are
     subject to an advisory fee based on performance.

Compensation. Each portfolio manager's compensation consists of three basic
elements--base salary, cash bonus and long-term incentive compensation. The
compensation strategy is to annually compare overall compensation, including
these three elements, to the market in order to create a compensation structure
that is competitive and consistent with similar financial services companies. As
discussed below, several factors are considered in determining each portfolio
manager's total compensation. In any year these factors may include, among
others, the effectiveness of the investment strategies recommended by the
portfolio manager's investment team, the investment performance of the accounts
managed by the portfolio manager, and the overall performance of Nuveen
Investments, Inc. (the parent company of NAM). Although investment performance
is a factor in determining the portfolio manager's compensation, it is not
necessarily a decisive factor. The portfolio manager's performance is evaluated
in part by comparing manager's performance against a specified investment
benchmark. This fund-specific benchmark is a customized subset (limited to bonds
in each Fund's specific state and with certain maturity parameters) of the
S&P/Investortools Municipal Bond index, an index comprised of bonds held by
managed municipal bond fund customers of Standard & Poor's Securities Pricing,
Inc. that are priced daily and whose fund holdings aggregate at least $2
million. As of August 30, 2006, the S&P/Investortools Municipal Bond index was
comprised of 47,346 securities with an aggregate current market value of $879
billion.

Base salary. Each portfolio manager is paid a base salary that is set at a level
determined by NAM in accordance with its overall compensation strategy discussed
above. NAM is not under any current contractual obligation to increase a
portfolio manager's base salary.

Cash bonus. Each portfolio manager is also eligible to receive an annual cash
bonus. The level of this bonus is based upon evaluations and determinations made
by each portfolio manager's supervisors, along with reviews submitted by his
peers. These reviews and evaluations often take into account a number of
factors, including the effectiveness of the investment strategies recommended to
the NAM's investment team, the performance of the accounts for which he serves
as portfolio manager relative to any benchmarks established for those accounts,
his effectiveness in communicating investment performance to stockholders and
their representatives, and his contribution to the NAM's investment process and
to the execution of investment strategies. The cash bonus component is also
impacted by the overall performance of Nuveen Investments, Inc. in achieving its
business objectives.

Long-term incentive compensation. Each portfolio manager is eligible to receive
bonus compensation in the form of equity-based awards issued in securities
issued by Nuveen Investments, Inc. The amount of such compensation is dependent
upon the same factors articulated for cash bonus awards but also factors in his
long-term potential with the firm.

Material Conflicts of Interest. Each portfolio manager's simultaneous management
of the registrant and the other accounts noted above may present actual or
apparent conflicts of interest with respect to the allocation and aggregation of
securities orders placed on behalf of the Registrant and the other account. NAM,
however, believes that such potential conflicts are mitigated by the fact that
the NAM has adopted several policies that address potential conflicts of
interest, including best execution and trade allocation policies that are
designed to ensure (1) that portfolio management is seeking the best price for
portfolio securities under the circumstances, (2) fair and equitable allocation
of investment opportunities among accounts over time and (3) compliance with
applicable regulatory requirements. All accounts are to be treated in a
non-preferential manner, such that allocations are not based upon account
performance, fee structure or preference of the portfolio manager. In addition,
NAM has adopted a Code of Conduct that sets forth policies regarding conflicts
of interest.

Beneficial Ownership of Securities. As of the August 31, 2006, the portfolio
manager beneficially owned the following dollar range of equity securities
issued by the Registrant and other Nuveen Funds managed by NAM's municipal
investment team.
