The purpose of the additional distributions is to ensure that shareholders will not experience a reduced monthly tax-exempt distribution amount. When combined with pre-merger distributions, declared May 27, 2014, payable August 1, 2014 for NAC and July 1, 2014 for NMT, all shareholders from funds participating in the NAC and NMT mergers will receive a total dollar amount equal to or greater than the tax-exempt income declared by their original fund in the month prior to the mergers.

In addition, for both the NKX and NMT mergers, Muni-Term Preferred (MTP) shares of acquired funds were replaced by newly issued shares of MTP from the acquiring funds with substantially similar terms. The initial distribution for these new MTP shares is prorated for the period June 9, 2014 through June 30, 2014.

The following dates apply to today's distribution declarations for the following MTP Shares issued by NKX and NMT:

Record Date   June 19, 2014
