Section 2 – Financial Information

Item 2.02    Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

The information in Item 2.02 of this Report and the Exhibits attached hereto shall be deemed “furnished” and shall not be deemed “filed” for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall they be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing. Unless otherwise indicated, the terms “we”, “us”, “our” and “Nuveen Investments” refer to Nuveen Investments, Inc. and, where appropriate, its subsidiaries.

While Nuveen Investments is not required to file reports pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act, we are required to file, pursuant to the terms of our outstanding 10¹/2% Senior Notes due 2015, a copy of substantially the same quarterly financial information that would be required to be contained in a filing by us with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Form 10-Q, including a “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”. In order to satisfy our contractual obligations under the notes, we are publishing our unaudited consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, unaudited consolidated statements of income for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, and changes in shareholders’ equity and cash flows for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2008 and 2007 (the “Consolidated Financial Statements”) via this Report on Form 8-K. The Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto are attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.

In addition, set forth below is our Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, which should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Unaudited Financial Statements and related notes, as well as a discussion of Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risks.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

You should read the following discussion and analysis in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements filed with this Form 8-K at Exhibit 99.1, including the notes thereto. The statements in this discussion and analysis regarding industry outlook, our expectations regarding our future performance and our liquidity and capital resources and other non-historical statements in this discussion are forward-looking statements. See “Forward-Looking Information and Risks” below. Our actual results may differ materially from those contained in or implied in any forward-looking statements due to numerous risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, the risk and uncertainties described in “Forward-Looking Information and Risks” below.

Description of the Business

The principal businesses of Nuveen Investments are investment management and related research, as well as the development, marketing and distribution of investment products and services for the high-net-worth and institutional market segments. We distribute our investment products and services, which include managed accounts, closed-end exchange-traded funds (“closed-end funds”), and open-end mutual funds (“open-end funds” or “mutual funds”) primarily to high-net-worth and institutional investors through intermediary firms including broker-dealers, commercial banks, private banks, affiliates of insurance providers, financial planners, accountants, consultants and investment advisors.

We derive a substantial portion of our revenue from investment advisory fees, which are recognized as services are performed. These fees are directly related to the market value of the assets we manage.

2

Advisory fee revenues generally will increase with a rise in the level of assets under management. Assets under management will rise through sales of our investment products or through increases in the value of portfolio investments. Assets under management may also increase as a result of reinvestment of distributions from funds and accounts. Fee income generally will decline when assets under management decline, as would occur when the values of fund portfolio investments decrease or when managed account withdrawals or mutual fund redemptions exceed gross sales and reinvestments.

In addition to investment advisory fees, we have two other main sources of operating revenue: performance fees and distribution and underwriting revenue. Performance fees are earned when investment performance on certain institutional accounts and hedge funds exceeds a contractual threshold. These fees are recognized only at the performance measurement date contained in the individual account management agreement. Distribution revenue is earned when certain funds are sold to the public through financial advisors. Generally, distribution revenue will rise and fall with the level of our sales of mutual fund products. Underwriting fees are earned on the initial public offerings of our closed-end funds. The level of underwriting fees earned in any given year will fluctuate depending on the number of new funds offered, the size of the funds offered and the extent to which we participate as a member of the syndicate group underwriting the fund. Also included in distribution and underwriting revenue is revenue relating to our MuniPreferred^® and FundPreferred^®. These are types of auction rate preferred stock (“ARPS”) issued by our closed-end funds, shares of which have historically been bought and sold through a secondary market auction process. A participation fee has been paid by the fund to the auction participants based on shares traded. Access to the auction must be made through a participating broker. We have offered non-participating brokers access to the auctions, for which we earned a portion of the participation fee. Beginning in mid-February 2008, the auctions for our ARPS, for the ARPS issued by other closed-end funds and for other auction rate securities began to fail on a widespread basis and have continued to fail. As we have described in several public announcements, we and the Nuveen closed-end funds have been working on various forms of debt and equity financing to redeem all of the approximately $15 billion of ARPS issued by our closed-end funds. We have announced the redemption of approximately $3.2 billion of ARPS issued by our closed-end funds and continue to work on alternatives to address the remaining ARPS of these funds. The redemption of ARPS and certain related financings may result in lower advisory fees. We believe that the issues relating to the failed auctions of ARPS of closed-end funds generally has caused the market for new closed-end funds to be inactive. We therefore anticipate that we will receive minimal, if any, underwriting fees from new closed-end fund offerings during the balance of 2008. We also expect distribution and underwriting revenue relating to ARPS to continue to decrease.

Sales of our products, and our profitability, are directly affected by many variables, including investor preferences for equity, fixed-income or other investments, the availability and attractiveness of competing products, market performance, continued access to distribution channels, changes in interest rates, inflation, and income tax rates and laws.

Recent Events

Acquisition of the Company

On June 19, 2007, Nuveen Investments, Inc. (the “Predecessor”) entered into an agreement (the “Merger Agreement”) under which a group of private equity investors led by Madison Dearborn Partners, LLC (“MDP”) agreed to acquire all of the outstanding shares of the Predecessor for $65.00 per share in cash. The Board of Directors and shareholders of the Predecessor approved the Merger Agreement. The transaction closed on November 13, 2007 (the “effective date”).

On the effective date, Windy City Investments Holdings, LLC (“Holdings”) acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of the Predecessor for approximately $5.8 billion in cash. Holdings is owned by MDP, affiliates of Merrill Lynch Global Private Equity and certain other co-investors and certain of our employees, including senior management. Windy City Investments, Inc. (the “Parent”) and Windy City Acquisition Corp. (the “Merger Sub”) are corporations formed by Holdings in connection with the acquisition and, concurrently with the closing of the acquisition on November 13, 2007, the Merger

3

Sub merged with and into Nuveen Investments which was the surviving corporation (the “Successor”) and assumed the obligations of the Merger Sub by operation of law.

The Merger Agreement and plan of merger and the related financing transactions resulted in the following events which are collectively referred to as the “Transactions”:

• the purchase by the equity investors of common units of Holdings for approximately $2.8 billion in cash and/or through a roll-over of existing equity interest in Nuveen Investments;

• the entering into by the Merger Sub of a new senior secured credit facility comprised of : (1) a $2.3 billion term loan facility with a term of seven years and (2) a $250 million revolving credit facility with a term of six years, which are discussed in “Capital Resources, Liquidity and Financial Condition”, below;

• the offering by the Merger Sub of $785 million of senior notes, which are discussed in “Capital Resources, Liquidity and Financial Condition”, below:

• the merger of the Merger Sub with and into Nuveen Investments, with Nuveen Investments as the surviving corporation, and the payment of the related merger consideration; and

• the payment of approximately $175 million of fees and expenses related to the Transactions, including approximately $52 million of fees expensed.

Immediately following the merger, Nuveen Investments became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Parent and a wholly-owned indirect subsidiary of Holdings.

The purchase price of the Company has been preliminarily allocated to the assets and liabilities acquired based on their estimated fair market values at the date of acquisition.

Unless the context requires otherwise, “Nuveen Investments,” “we,” “us,” “our,” or the “Company” refers to the Successor and its subsidiaries, and for periods prior to November 13, 2007, the Predecessor and its subsidiaries.

The acquisition of Nuveen Investments was accounted for as a business combination using the purchase method of accounting, whereby the purchase price (including liabilities assumed) was preliminarily allocated to the assets acquired based on their estimated fair market values at the date of acquisition and the excess of the total purchase price over the fair value of the Company’s net assets was allocated to goodwill. The purchase price paid by Holdings to acquire the Company and related preliminary purchase accounting adjustments were “pushed down” and recorded on Nuveen Investments and its subsidiaries’ financial statements and resulted in a new basis of accounting for the “successor” period beginning on the day the acquisition was completed. As a result, the purchase price and related costs were preliminarily allocated to the estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the time of the acquisition based on management’s best estimates, which were based in part on the work of external valuation specialists engaged to perform valuations of certain of the tangible and intangible assets.

As a result of the consummation of the Transactions and the application of purchase accounting as of November 13, 2007, the Consolidated Financial Statements for periods after November 13, 2007 are presented on a different basis than that for periods prior to November 13, 2007 and therefore are not comparable to prior periods.

Results of Operations

The following discussion and analysis contains important information that should be helpful in evaluating our results of operations and financial condition, and should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes.

Gross sales of investment products (which include new managed accounts, deposits into existing managed accounts and the sale of open-end and closed-end fund shares) for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2008 and 2007 are shown below:

Gross Investment Product Sales

(in millions)

	Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended
	June 30,				June 30,
	2008		2007		2008		2007
Closed-End Funds	$	—	$	1,133	$	2	$	1,429
Mutual Funds		1,839		1,859		3,194		3,540

Total	$	5,321	$	7,827	$	9,575	$	15,961

Gross sales for the second quarter were down 32% versus sales in the second quarter of the prior year, driven mainly by lower sales of closed-end funds and institutional managed account products. Institutional managed account sales were down $1.2 billion, or 47% versus sales in the second quarter of the prior year as investor caution due to market volatility continued to dampen institutional sales. In

addition, institutional sales in the second quarter of the prior year included approximately $0.5 billion raised through the distribution of a Merrill IQ fund. There were no new institutional sub-advised funds in the current year. Retail managed account and mutual fund sales were fairly flat for the quarter versus the prior year. There were no new closed-end fund offerings in the second quarter of the current year. During the second quarter of the prior year we had two closed-end fund offerings which raised $1.1 billion in the aggregate.

Similar to the second quarter, the decline in sales year-to-date was driven by declines in institutional managed account and closed-end fund sales. Retail managed account sales also declined on a year-to-date basis driven mainly by a decline in Tradewinds value-style international account sales and NWQ value-style managed account sales in the first quarter.

Net flows of investment products for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2008 and 2007 are shown below:

     Net Flows

     (in millions)

	Three Months Ended						Six Months Ended
	June 30,						June 30,

Total	$	(919	)	$	1,906		$	(3,960	)	$	4,939

We experienced $0.9 billion of net outflows for the quarter, driven by $1.8 billion of retail managed account outflows. With the exception of retail managed accounts, all other products experienced net inflows for the quarter. Although we experienced outflows on retail managed accounts, the pace of these outflows slowed versus outflows in the prior quarter as investment performance versus benchmark on many of our managed account strategies continued to improve during the quarter. Closed-end fund net flows declined year-over-year driven by the decline in sales discussed previously. Mutual fund net flows increased versus the prior year as a result of an increase in flows on our municipal products.

Year-to-date, both retail and institutional managed accounts experienced net outflows. These outflows were driven by increased redemptions as a result of the challenging market environment and 2007 investment underperformance versus benchmark across a few managed account strategies.

The following table summarizes net assets under management:

Assets under management ended the quarter at just under $152 billion, a decrease of 12% versus assets under management at the end of the second quarter of 2007 and a decrease of 8% versus assets under management at the end of the prior year. At June 30, 2008, 48% of our assets were in equity portfolios, 42% in municipal portfolios and 10% in taxable fixed-income portfolios.

The following table presents the component changes in our assets under management for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2008 and 2007:

Change in Net Assets Under Management

Increase/(Decrease) in Assets	$	(1,193	)	$	5,507		$	(12,474	)	$	9,993

Assets were down $1.2 billion during the quarter as a result of both net outflows and market depreciation for the period. Market movement during the quarter was comprised of $0.3 billion of municipal and $0.3 billion of taxable fixed-income market depreciation which was partially offset by $0.3 billion of equity market appreciation.

Assets were down $12.5 billion year-to-date as a result of both net outflows and market depreciation for the period. Market movement for this period was comprised of $1.7 billion of municipal, $1.0 billion of taxable fixed-income and $5.8 billion of equity market depreciation.

Investment advisory fee income, net of sub-advisory fees and expense reimbursements, is shown in the following table:

Investment Advisory Fees ⁽¹⁾

(in thousands)

	Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended
	June 30,				June 30,
	2008		2007		2008		2007

Total	$	183,935	$	197,981	$	376,694	$	387,697

⁽¹⁾ Sub-advisory fee expense for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2008 and 2007 was $6.7 million, $7.9 million, $13.6 million and $15.8 million, respectively.

7

Advisory fees for the quarter declined 7% versus the prior year driven primarily by a 13% decline in fees on managed accounts. Closed-end fund fees increased despite a decline in average assets under management (“AUM”) as a result of an overall increase in yield on these funds. The yield increase on the closed-end funds was mainly driven by a reduction in sub-advisory fee expense as we were able to leverage our internal investment capabilities and eliminated the need to access these capabilities through external sub-advisory relationships. Mutual fund fees declined 5% for the quarter due to a reduction in average AUM, mainly as a result of market depreciation. Managed account fees were also down for the quarter due to a reduction in AUM. Managed account AUM declined as a result of both market depreciation and net outflows, mainly on retail managed accounts.

Advisory fees for the six-month period ended June 30, 2008 declined 3% versus the same period of the prior year. Closed-end fund fees increased despite a decline in average AUM as a result of an increase in the number of days in the period as well as from an overall increase in yield on these funds. Mutual fund fees were fairly flat for the six month period as the extra day of revenue offset a decline in fees due to a reduction in average AUM. Managed account fees declined due to a reduction in AUM.

Product distribution revenue for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2008 and 2007 is shown in the following table:

Product Distribution

	Three Months Ended						Six Months Ended

Mutual Funds		(222	)		(190	)		(50	)		(209	)
Total	$	819		$	2,152		$	2,050		$	3,575

Product distribution revenue decreased $0.9 million for the quarter and $1.5 million year-to-date due mainly to a decline in underwriting revenue. There were no new closed-end fund offerings in the three-month or six-month periods ended June 30, 2008.

Performance Fees/Other Revenue

Performance fees/other revenue consists of performance fees earned on institutional assets and various fees earned in connection with services provided on behalf of our defined portfolio assets under surveillance. Performance fees for the second quarter of 2008 were $5.4 million, up $1.9 million from the second quarter of 2007. Performance fees for the first six months of 2008 were $7.1 million, down from $9.1 million in the first six months of 2007.

Compensation and Benefits

Compensation and related benefit expense was consistent with the same quarter of the prior year and increased 3% versus the prior six-month period. For the quarter, an increase in base compensation due to salary increases and an overall increase in headcount was offset by a decline in incentive compensation. For the six-month period, the increase in base compensation was only partially offset by the decline in incentive compensation.

Amortization of Intangible Assets

Amortization of intangibles increased $14.2 million for the quarter and $28.4 million year-to-date as a result of the Transactions.

Travel and Entertainment

Travel and entertainment expenses increased $0.5 million for the quarter and $1.6 million year-to-date.

Outside and Professional Services

Outside and professional services expense increased $2.9 million for the second quarter and $4.0 million year-to-date primarily due to increases in electronic information and information technology expenses as we provide our investment and research teams with more data and other tools to better manage their portfolios.

Minority Interest Expense

Minority interest expense results from key employees at NWQ, Tradewinds, Symphony, and Santa Barbara having been granted non-controlling equity-based profits interests in their respective businesses. For additional information on minority interest expense, please refer to “Capital Resources, Liquidity and Financial Condition – Equity Plans” below.

All Other Operating Expenses

All other operating expenses, including advertising and promotional costs, occupancy and equipment and other expenses declined approximately $0.2 million for the second quarter as declines in advertising and promotion expense and structuring fees were offset by increases in severance,

9

recruiting and relocation. Year-to-date all other operating expenses increased $1.3 million driven mainly by increases in severance, recruiting and relocation.

Other Income/(Expense)

Other income/(expense) includes realized gains and losses on investments and miscellaneous income/(expense), including the gain or loss on the disposal of property.

The following is a summary of other income/(expense) for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2008 and 2007:

     Other Income/(Expense)

Total	$	52,651		$	2,054		$	(23,378	)	$	3,368

Included in gains/(losses) on investments in the second quarter of 2008 is $48.5 million of non-cash unrealized mark-to-market gain on derivative transactions entered into as a result of the Transactions. Also included in gains/(losses) on investments is $4.4 million in non-cash gains on the consolidated CLO (see also “Minority Interest Income/(Expense) from Consolidated Investment Vehicles” below). In addition to the investment losses reported on the consolidated CLO, we recorded approximately $0.6 million in miscellaneous expense also as a result of the consolidation of the CLO. During the quarter we recorded an additional $0.5 million of expense as a result of the Transactions.

Year-to-date the unrealized mark-to-market on derivatives entered into as a result of the Transactions is a $0.5 million non-cash loss. Year-to-date the consolidated CLO experienced $21.3 million in losses and $1.1 million in miscellaneous expense. Year-to-date we recorded $0.8 million of expense as a result of the Transactions.

Minority Interest Revenue/(Expense) from Consolidated Investment Vehicles

Minority interest revenue/(expense) from consolidated investment vehicles includes income/(loss) related to the CLO which is required to be consolidated (See Note 9 to our Consolidated Financial Statements, “Symphony CLO V,” attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1). We have no equity interest in this CLO investment vehicle and all gains and losses recorded in our financial statements are attributable to other investors. For the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2008, we recorded a $1.3 million gain and a $23.2 million net loss, respectively, on this investment. The entire amount of the gain/(loss) is offset in minority interest revenue/(expense) from consolidated investment vehicle.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

SFAS No. 160 – Non-Controlling Interests

During December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “Non-Controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements – an Amendment of ARB No. 51” (“SFAS No. 160”). SFAS No. 160 amends Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51, “Consolidated Financial Statements,” to establish accounting and reporting standards for a non-controlling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. This pronouncement clarifies that a non-controlling interest in a subsidiary is an ownership interest in the consolidated entity that should be reported as equity, separate from the parent’s equity, in the consolidated financial statements. SFAS No. 160 is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2008; earlier adoption is prohibited. SFAS No. 160 requires retroactive adoption of the presentation and disclosure requirements for existing non-controlling interests. All other requirements of SFAS No. 160 shall be applied prospectively. We are currently evaluating the potential impact of SFAS No. 160 to our consolidated financial statements.

SFAS No. 161 – Amendment to FASB Statement No. 133

On March 19, 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 133” (“SFAS No. 161”). SFAS No. 161 is intended to improve transparency in financial reporting by requiring enhanced qualitative and quantitative disclosures of an entity’s derivative instruments and hedging activities. Additional disclosures that will be required under SFAS No. 161 include: how and why an entity uses derivatives; how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under SFAS No. 133; how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows; credit-risk-related information pertaining to derivative instruments held; location and fair value amounts of derivative instruments reported in the statement of financial position; and location and amount of gains and losses reported in the income statement on derivative instruments and related hedged items. SFAS No. 161 applies to all derivatives within the scope of SFAS No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative and Hedging Activities” (“SFAS No. 133”). It also applies to non-derivative hedging instruments and all hedged items designated and qualifying as hedges under SFAS

11

No. 133. SFAS No. 161 is effective prospectively for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008, with early adoption permitted. We will adopt SFAS 161 on January 1, 2009 and are currently evaluating the potential impact on our financial statements when implemented.

Capital Resources, Liquidity and Financial Condition

Our primary liquidity needs are to fund capital expenditures, service indebtedness and support working capital requirements. Our principal sources of liquidity are cash flows from operating activities and borrowings under available credit facilities and long-term notes.

In connection with the Transactions, we significantly increased our level of debt. As of June 30, 2008, we have outstanding approximately $3.6 billion in aggregate principal amount of indebtedness, with an additional $250 million borrowing capacity available under our new revolving credit facility.

Senior Secured Credit Facilities

Our senior secured credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) consists of a $2.3 billion term loan facility and a $250 million secured revolving credit facility. All borrowings under the Credit Facility bear interest at a rate per annum equal to LIBOR plus 3.0%. In addition to paying interest on outstanding principal under the Credit Facility, we are required to pay a commitment fee to the lenders in respect of the unutilized loan commitments at a rate of 0.3750% per annum. We received approximately $2.3 billion in net proceeds after discounts and underwriting commissions. The net proceeds were used as part of the financing that was used to consummate the Transactions. As of June 30, 2008, there were no borrowings under the revolving credit facility.

All obligations under the Credit Facility are guaranteed by the Parent and each of our present and future, direct and indirect, wholly-owned material domestic subsidiaries (excluding subsidiaries that are broker dealers). The obligations under the Credit Facility and these securities are secured, subject to permitted liens and other specified exceptions, (1) on a first-lien basis, by all the capital stock of Nuveen Investments and certain of its subsidiaries (excluding significant subsidiaries and limited, in the case of foreign subsidiaries, to 100% of the non-voting capital stock and 65% of the voting capital stock of the first tier foreign subsidiaries) directly held by us or any guarantor and (2) on a first lien basis by substantially all present and future assets of Nuveen Investments and each guarantor.

The senior secured term loan matures on November 13, 2014 and the senior secured revolving credit facility matures on November 13, 2013.

We are required to make quarterly payments under the senior term loan facility in the amount of $5,787,500. The first payment was made on June 30, 2008. The credit agreement permits all or any portion of the loans outstanding to be prepaid.

The Credit Facility contains customary financial covenants, including but not limited to, maximum consolidated total secured leverage (net of certain cash and cash equivalents); certain other limitations on us and certain of our subsidiaries’ ability to incur additional debt; and other customary covenants.

Senior Unsecured Notes

Also in connection with the Transactions, we issued $785 million of senior unsecured notes (the “Senior Notes”). The Senior Notes mature on November 15, 2015 and pay a coupon of 10.5% based on par value, payable semi-annually on May 15 and November 15 of each year, commencing on May 15, 2008. We received approximately $759 million in net proceeds after underwriting commissions and structuring fees. The net proceeds were used as part of the financing that was used to consummate the Transactions.

12

Obligations under the Senior Notes are guaranteed by the Parent and each of our existing and subsequently acquired or organized direct or indirect domestic subsidiaries (excluding subsidiaries that are broker dealers) that guarantee the debt under our credit agreement.

Senior Term Notes

On September 12, 2005, we issued $550 million of senior unsecured notes, consisting of $250 million of 5-year notes and $300 million of 10-year notes which remain outstanding. We received approximately $544 million in net proceeds after discounts. The 5-year senior term notes bear interest at an annual fixed rate of 5.0%, payable semi-annually beginning March 15, 2006. The 10-year senior term notes bear interest at an annual fixed rate of 5.5%, payable semi-annually also beginning March 15, 2006. The net proceeds from the notes were used to refinance outstanding debt. The costs related to the issuance of the senior term notes were capitalized and are being amortized to expense over their respective terms. From time to time the Company may, in compliance with the covenants under the new senior secured credit facilities and the indenture for the notes, redeem, repurchase or otherwise acquire for value these notes.

Other

In addition to the above facilities, our broker-dealer subsidiary may utilize available, uncommitted lines of credit with no annual facility fees, which approximate $50 million, to satisfy unanticipated, short-term liquidity needs. As of June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, no borrowings were outstanding on these uncommitted lines of credit.

Adequacy of Liquidity

We believe that funds generated from operations and existing borrowing capacity will be adequate to fund debt service requirements, capital expenditures and working capital requirements for the foreseeable future. Our ability to continue to fund these items and to service debt may be affected by general economic, financial, competitive, legislative and regulatory factors, and the cost of litigation claims, among other things. We cannot assure you that our business will generate sufficient cash flow from operations or that future borrowings will be available to use under our secured revolving credit facility in an amount sufficient to enable us to pay our indebtedness or to fund our other liquidity needs.

Equity Plans

As part of the NWQ acquisition, key individuals of NWQ purchased a non-controlling, member interest in NWQ Investment Management Company, LLC. This purchase allowed management to participate in profits of NWQ above specified levels beginning January 1, 2003. Beginning in 2004 and continuing through 2008, the Company had the right to purchase the non-controlling members’ respective interests in NWQ at fair value. During the first quarter of 2008, we exercised our right to call all of the remaining Class 4 minority members’ interests for $23.6 million. As of June 30, 2008 we have repurchased all member interests outstanding under this program.

As part of the Santa Barbara acquisition, an equity opportunity was established to allow key individuals to participate in Santa Barbara’s earnings growth over the subsequent five years (Class 2 Units, Class 5A Units, Class 5B Units, and Class 6 Units, collectively referred to as “Units”). The Class 2 Units were fully vested upon issuance. One third of the Class 5A Units vested on June 30, 2007, one third vested on June 30, 2008 and the remaining third will vest June 30, 2009. One third of the Class 5B Units vested upon issuance, one third on June 30, 2007, and one third will vest on June 30, 2009. The Class 6 Units will vest on June 30, 2009. During the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, we recorded approximately $0.1 million and $1.5 million, respectively, of minority interest expense, which reflects the portion of profits applicable to the minority owners. The Units entitle the holders to receive a distribution of the cash flow from Santa Barbara’s business to the extent such cash flow exceeds certain thresholds. The distribution thresholds vary from year to year, reflecting Santa Barbara

13

achieving certain profit levels and the distributions of profits interests are also subject to a cap in each year. Beginning in 2008 and continuing through 2012, we have the right to acquire the Units of the non-controlling members. During the first quarter of 2008, we exercised our right to call 100% of the Class 2 Units for approximately $30.0 million.

During 2006, new equity opportunities were put in place covering NWQ, Tradewinds and Symphony. These programs allow key individuals of these businesses to participate in the growth of their respective businesses over the subsequent six years. Classes of interests were established at each subsidiary (collectively referred to as “Interests”). Certain of these Interests vested or will vest on June 30, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010 and 2011. During the first six months of 2008 and 2007, we recorded approximately $0.8 million and $1.6 million, respectively, of minority interest expense, which reflects the portion of profits applicable to minority interest owners. The Interests entitle the holders to receive a distribution of the cash flow from their business to the extent such cash flow exceeds certain thresholds. The distribution thresholds increase from year to year and the distributions of the profits interests are also subject to a cap in each year. Beginning in 2008 and continuing through 2012, we have the right to acquire the Interests of the non-controlling members. During the first quarter of 2008, we exercised our right to call all callable Interests outstanding for approximately $31.3 million.

Broker/Dealer

Our broker/dealer subsidiary is subject to requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission relating to liquidity and capital standards. (See Note 3 to our Consolidated Financial Statements, “Net Capital Requirements,” attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1).

Forward-Looking Information and Risks

From time to time, information we provide or information included in our filings with the SEC (including Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in this Form 8-K and the notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements) may contain statements that are not historical facts, but are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These statements relate to future events or future financial performance and reflect management’s expectations and opinions. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may,” “will,” “could,” “would,” “should,” “expect,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “believe,” “estimate,” “predict,” “potential,” or comparable terminology. These statements are only predictions, and our actual future results may differ significantly from those anticipated in any forward-looking statements due to numerous known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors. All of the forward-looking statements are qualified in their entirety by reference to the factors discussed below and elsewhere in this report. These factors may not be exhaustive, and we cannot predict the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those predicted in any forward-looking statements. We undertake no responsibility to update publicly or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or any other reason.

Risks, uncertainties and other factors that pertain to our business and the effects of which may cause our assets under management, earnings, revenues, and/or profit margins to decline include: (1) the adverse effects of declines in securities markets and/or poor investment performance by us; (2) the effects of the substantial competition that we face in the investment management business; (3) our inability to sustain the growth we have experienced in prior periods; (4) our inability to access third-party distribution channels to market our products or a reduction in fees we might receive for services provided in these channels; (5) a change in our asset mix to lower revenue generating assets; (6) a loss of key employees; (7) the effects on our business and financial results of the failure of the auctions beginning in mid-February 2008 of the approximately $15 billion of auction rate preferred stock (“ARPS”) issued by our closed-end funds (which has resulted in a loss of liquidity for the holders of these ARPS) and our efforts to obtain financing to redeem the ARPS at their par value of $25,000 per share and the effects of any regulatory activity or litigation relating thereto; (8) a decline in the market

14

for closed-end funds, mutual funds and managed accounts; (9) our failure to comply with various government regulations, including federal and state securities laws, and the rules of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority; (10) the impact of changes in tax rates and regulations; (11) developments in litigation involving the securities industry or us; (12) our reliance on revenues from our investment advisory contracts which generally may be terminated on sixty days notice and, with respect to our closed-end and open-end funds, are also subject to annual renewal by the independent board of trustees of such funds; (13) adverse public disclosure, failure to follow client guidelines and other matters that could harm our reputation; (14) future acquisitions that are not profitable for us; (15) the effect on us of increased leverage as a result of our incurrence of additional indebtedness in connection with the Transactions; (16) the impact of accounting pronouncements; and (17) any failure of our operating personnel and systems to perform effectively.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Market Risk

The following information, and information included elsewhere in this report, describes the key aspects of certain financial instruments that have market risk.

Interest Rate Sensitivity

Our obligations under the Credit Facility will expose our earnings to changes in short-term interest rates since the interest rate on this debt is variable. At June 30, 2008 the aggregate principal amount of our indebtedness is approximately $3.6 billion, of which approximately $2.3 billion is variable rate debt and approximately $1.3 billion is fixed rate debt. For our variable rate debt, we estimate that a 100 basis point increase (one percentage point) in variable interest rates would have resulted in a $23.2 million increase in annual interest expense (prior to any adjustment for interest rate hedges discussed below); however, it would not be expected to have a substantial impact on the fair value of the debt at June 30, 2008. A change in interest rates would have had no impact on interest incurred on our fixed rate debt or cash flow, but would have had an impact on the fair value of the debt. We estimate that a 100 basis point increase in interest rates from the levels at June 30, 2008 would result in a net decrease in the fair value of our debt of approximately $50.7 million.

The variable nature of our obligations under the Credit Facility creates interest rate risk. In order to mitigate this risk, we entered into nine interest rate swap derivative transactions and one collar derivative transaction that effectively converted $2.3 billion of our new variable rate debt into fixed-rate borrowings or borrowings that are subject to a maximum rate. In addition, at June 30, 2008 we held two basis swap derivative transactions with a notional amount of $1.5 billion. These basis swap derivatives effectively lock-in the expected future difference between one-month and three-month LIBOR as the primary reference rate for our variable rate debt. Collectively, these derivatives are referred to as the “New Debt Derivatives.” The New Debt Derivatives are not accounted for as hedges for accounting purposes. For additional information see Note 6 to our Consolidated Financial Statements, “Derivative Financial Instruments,” attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1. At June 30, 2008 the fair value of the New Debt Derivatives is a liability of $32.6 million. We estimate that a 100 basis point change in interest rates would have a $41.9 million impact on the fair value of the New Debt Derivatives.

Our investments consist primarily of company-sponsored managed investment funds that invest in a variety of asset classes. Additionally, we periodically invest in new advisory accounts to establish a performance history prior to a potential product launch. Company-sponsored funds and accounts are carried on our consolidated financial statements at fair market value and are subject to the investment performance of the underlying sponsored fund or account. Any unrealized gain or loss is recognized upon the sale of the investment. The carrying value of our investments in fixed-income funds or accounts, which expose us to interest rate risk, was approximately $67.7 million at June 30, 2008. We estimate that a 100 basis point increase in interest rates from the levels at June 30, 2008 would result in

15

a net decrease of approximately $0.7 million in the fair value of the fixed-income investments at June 30, 2008. A 100 basis point increase in interest rates is a hypothetical scenario used to demonstrate potential risk and does not represent management’s view of future market changes.

Equity Market Sensitivity

As discussed above in the “Interest Rate Sensitivity” section, we invest in certain company-sponsored managed investment funds and accounts that invest in a variety of asset classes. The carrying value of our investments in funds and accounts subject to equity price risk is approximately $60.5 million at June 30, 2008. We estimate that a 10% adverse change in equity prices would result in a $6 million decrease in the fair value of our equity securities. The model to determine sensitivity assumes a corresponding shift in all equity prices.

We do not enter into foreign currency transactions for speculative purposes and currently have no material investments that would expose us to foreign currency exchange risk.

In evaluating market risk, it is also important to note that most of our revenue is based on the market value of assets under management. Declines of financial market values will negatively impact our revenue and net income.

Inflation

Our assets are, to a large extent, liquid in nature and therefore not significantly affected by inflation. However, inflation may result in increases in our expenses, such as employee compensation, advertising and promotional costs, and office occupancy costs. To the extent inflation, or the expectation thereof, results in rising interest rates or has other adverse effects upon the securities markets and on the value of financial instruments, it may adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations. A substantial decline in the value of fixed-income or equity investments could adversely affect the net asset value of funds and accounts we manage, which in turn would result in a decline in investment advisory and performance fee revenue.

NUVEEN INVESTMENTS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
June 30, 2008

Note 1   Basis of Presentation

The unaudited consolidated financial statements presented herein include the accounts of Nuveen Investments, Inc. (the “Company,” or “we,” or “our”), its majority-owned subsidiaries, and certain funds which we are required to consolidate (as further discussed in Note 10, “Consolidated Funds,” in the Company’s March 31, 2008 year-end financial statement filing on Form 8-K), and have been prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. All significant intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation.

The unaudited consolidated financial statements presented herein should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Company’s March 31, 2008 year-end financial statement filing on Form 8-K.

As more fully discussed in Note 1, “Acquisition of the Company,” in the Company’s March 31, 2008 year-end financial statement filing on Form 8-K, Nuveen Investments, Inc. (the “Predecessor”) was acquired by a group of private equity investors led by Madison Dearborn Partners, LLC (“MDP”) in a merger and related transactions (collectively, the “Transactions”). The Transactions closed on November 13, 2007.

Financial results presented for periods prior to November 13, 2007 represent operations of the Predecessor. Financial results presented from November 14, 2007 forward represent operations of the company surviving the MDP-led buyout (the “Successor”). As a result of the MDP-led buyout and the application of purchase accounting as of November 13, 2007, the consolidated financial statements for the period after November 13, 2007 (the Successor period) are presented on a different basis than that for periods prior to November 13, 2007 (the Predecessor period) and therefore are not comparable.

These financial statements rely, in part, on estimates. Actual results could differ from these estimates. In the opinion of management, all necessary adjustments (consisting of normal, recurring accruals) have been reflected for a fair presentation of the results of operations, financial position and cash flows in the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements. The results for the period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the entire year.

Note 2   SFAS No. 157 — Fair Value Measurements

On September 15, 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS No. 157”). SFAS No. 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim periods within those fiscal years.

In February 2008, the FASB issued Staff Position 157-2 (“FSP 157-2”). FSP 157-2 permits delayed adoption of SFAS No. 157 for certain non-financial assets and liabilities, which are not recognized at fair value on a recurring basis, until fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008. As permitted by FSP 157-2, the Company has elected to delay the adoption of SFAS No. 157 for qualifying non-financial assets and liabilities, such as property, plant, and equipment, goodwill and intangible assets. The Company is

6

in the process of evaluating the impact, if any, that the application of SFAS No. 157 to its non-financial assets will have on the Company’s consolidated results of operations or financial position.

SFAS No. 157 itself does not require that fair value be applied to specific items; it merely clarifies how to value items that must be measured at fair value.

SFAS No. 157 provides enhanced guidance for using fair value to measure assets and liabilities by defining fair value, establishing a framework for measuring fair value, and expanding disclosure requirements about fair value measurements. Prior to this standard, methods for measuring fair value were diverse and inconsistent, especially for items that are not actively traded. The standard clarifies that, for items that are not actively traded, such as certain kinds of derivatives, fair value should reflect the price in a transaction with a market participant, including an adjustment for risk, not just the company’s mark-to-market model value. The standard also requires expanded disclosure of the effect on earnings for items measured using unobservable data.

Under SFAS No. 157, fair value refers to the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants in the market in which the reporting entity transacts. SFAS No. 157 emphasizes that fair value is a market-based measurement, not an entity-specific measurement. Therefore, a fair value measurement should be determined based on the assumptions a market participant would use in pricing an asset or a liability.

SFAS No. 157 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes information used to develop those assumptions. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets and the lowest priority to unobservable data (for example, the reporting entity’s own data). SFAS No. 157 requires that fair value measurements be separately disclosed by level within the fair value hierarchy in order to distinguish between market participant assumptions based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity (observable inputs that are classified within Levels 1 and 2 of the hierarchy) and the reporting entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions (unobservable inputs classified within Level 3 of the hierarchy). Specifically:

• Level 1 - inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date.

• Level 2 - inputs to the valuation methodology other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, through corroboration with observable market data (market-corroborated inputs).

• Level 3 - inputs to the valuation methodology that are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability – that is, inputs that reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability (including assumptions about risk) developed based on the best information available in the circumstances.

In instances where the determination of the fair value measurement is based on inputs from different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the entire fair value measurement falls is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.

Available-for-Sale Securities and Trading Securities

Approximately $86.3 million of the Company’s available-for-sale securities and all $1.4 million of the Company’s trading securities are classified as Level 1 financial instruments, as they are valued based on unadjusted quoted market prices. The majority of these investments are investments in the Company’s managed accounts and certain product portfolios (seed investments). Approximately $16.7 million of the Company’s available-for-sale investments are considered to be Level 2 financial instruments, as they are valued based on quoted prices in less liquid markets.

As further discussed in Note 8, “Investments in Collateralized Loan and Debt Obligations,” the Company also has $6.4 million invested in collateralized debt obligation entities for which it acts as a collateral manager. This $6.4 million investment is included in “available-for-sale” securities and the Company considers these investments to be Level 3 financial instruments, as the valuations for these investments are based on cash flow estimates and the Company’s own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability (including assumptions about risk), as developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. At June 30, 2008, the Company also holds $15.4 million in auction rate preferred stock of an unaffiliated issuer. As further discussed in the Company’s March 31, 2008 year-end

8

financial statement filing on Form 8-K, the auctions for auction rate preferred stock began to fail on a widespread basis in the beginning of 2008. The Company considers these investments as Level 3 financial instruments, as there is currently no liquid market for these investments.

Underlying Investments from Consolidated Vehicle

As further discussed in Note 9, “Symphony CLO V,” the Company is required to consolidate into its financial results an investment vehicle, Symphony CLO V, in which the Company has no equity interest, but for which an affiliate of MDP is the majority equity holder. The underlying investment securities in Symphony CLO V are predominantly syndicated loans whose fair values are derived from broker-quotes. The Company considers these investments to be Level 3 financial instruments.

Other Investments

The Company holds a general partner interest in certain limited partnerships for which one of its subsidiary companies is the advisor. The Company considers these investments to be Level 3 financial instruments, as the fair value of these investments is based on valuation pricing models.

Derivative Financial Instruments

As further discussed in Note 6, “Derivative Financial Instruments,” the Company uses derivative instruments to manage the economic impact of fluctuations in interest rates related to its long-term debt and to mitigate the overall market risk for certain recently created product portfolios.

Derivative Instruments Related to Long-Term Debt

Currently, the Company uses interest rate swaps and an interest rate collar to manage its interest rate risk related to its long-term debt. The valuation of these derivative instruments is determined using widely accepted valuation techniques including discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of each derivative. This analysis reflects the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity, and uses observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves and implied volatilities.

The fair values of interest rate swaps are determined using the market standard methodology of netting the discounted future fixed cash receipts (or payments) and the discounted expected variable cash payments (or receipts). The variable cash payments (or receipts) are based on an expectation of future interest rates (forward curves) derived from observable market interest rate curves. The fair value of the interest rate collar is determined using the market standard methodology of discounting the future expected cash payments that would occur if variable interest rates fell below the floor strike rate or the cash receipts that would occur if variable interest rates rose above cap strike rate. The variable interest rates used in the calculation of projected cash flows on the collar are based on an expectation of future interest rates derived from observable market interest rate curves and volatilities.

To comply with the provisions of SFAS No. 157, the Company incorporates credit valuation adjustments to appropriately reflect both its own nonperformance risk and the respective counterparty’s nonperformance risk in the fair value measurements. In adjusting the fair value of its derivative contracts for the effect of nonperformance risk, the Company has considered the impact of netting and any applicable credit enhancements, such as collateral postings, thresholds, mutual puts, and guarantees.

Although the Company has determined that the majority of the inputs used to value its derivatives related to long-term debt fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit valuation adjustments associated with these derivatives utilize Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads to evaluate the likelihood of default by the Company and its counterparties. However, as of June 30, 2008, the Company has assessed the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustments on the overall valuation of these derivative positions and has determined that the credit valuation adjustments are not significant to the overall valuation

9

of these derivatives. As a result, the Company has determined that its valuations for derivatives related to its long-term debt in their entirety are classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Derivative Instruments Related to Certain Recently Created Product Portfolios

At June 30, 2008, the Company holds futures contracts that have not been designated as hedging instruments under SFAS No. 133 in order to mitigate the overall market risk of certain recently created product portfolios. As the valuations for these futures contracts are directly received from the counterparty, the futures arm of a nationally recognized bank, the Company has determined that the valuations for the derivatives related to certain recently created product portfolios are classified in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy, as all valuations for these derivatives are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Note 3   Net Capital Requirement

Nuveen Investments, LLC, the Company’s wholly-owned broker/dealer subsidiary, is subject to SEC Rule 15c3-1, the “Uniform Net Capital Rule,” which requires the maintenance of minimum net capital and requires that the ratio of aggregate indebtedness to net capital, as these terms are defined in the Rule, shall not exceed 15 to 1. At June 30, 2008, Nuveen Investments, LLC’s net capital ratio was 2.78 to 1 and its net capital was approximately $14.2 million, which was $11.6 million in excess of the required net capital of $2.6 million.

Note 4   Goodwill and Intangible Assets

The following table presents a reconciliation of activity in the balance of goodwill from December 31, 2007 to June 30, 2008 presented on our consolidated balance sheets (in thousands):

Balance at December 31, 2007	$	3,376,841
MDP Transaction		(9,249	)
Repurchase of NWQ minority interests		23,500
Repurchase of SBAM minority interests		12,327
Repurchase of NWQ, Tradewinds, and Symphony Equity Program interests		24,138
Balance at June 30, 2008	$	3,427,557

During the six months ended June 30, 2008, the Company recorded approximately $9.2 million of an adjustment to goodwill arising from the MDP Transaction and is predominantly due to purchase accounting and the revaluation of the Company’s pension and post-retirement plans.

As discussed in Note 20, “Subsequent Events,” in the Company’s March 31, 2008 year-end financial statement filing on Form 8-K, the Company repurchased various minority interests of certain subsidiaries. As a result of these various repurchase transactions, the Company recorded a total of approximately $60.0 million as goodwill.

Of the intangible assets presented above, only one is amortizable – Customer Relationships – Managed Accounts; the estimated approximate useful life of this one amortizable intangible asset is 15 years. The remaining intangible assets presented above are indefinite-lived. The estimated aggregate amortization expense for the next five years is approximately $32.4 million for the remaining six months of 2008, and annual amortization of $64.8 million for each of the years 2009 through 2012.

Senior Secured Credit Agreement – Successor

As a result of the Transactions, the Company has a new senior secured credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) consisting of a $2.3 billion term loan facility and a $250 million secured revolving credit facility. The Company received approximately $2.3 billion in net proceeds after discounts and underwriting commissions. The net proceeds were used as part of the financing to consummate the Transactions. At June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, there were no borrowings under the $250 million secured revolving credit facility. All borrowings under the Credit Facility bear interest at a rate per annum equal to LIBOR plus 3.0%. In addition to paying interest on outstanding principal under the Credit Facility, the Company is required to pay a commitment fee to the lenders in respect of the unutilized loan commitments at a rate of 0.3750% per annum. The Company is required to make quarterly payments under the senior term loan facility in the amount of approximately $5.8 million beginning June 30, 2008. The credit agreement permits all or any portion of the loans outstanding to be prepaid.

At December 31, 2007, the Company had $2.3 billion outstanding under the term loan facility. At June 30, 2008, after the first quarterly payment of $5.8 million was made, the Company had approximately $2.3 billion outstanding under the term loan facility.

All obligations under the Credit Facility are guaranteed by Windy City Investments Inc. (the “Parent”) and each of our present and future, direct and indirect, wholly-owned material domestic subsidiaries (excluding subsidiaries that are broker dealers). The obligations under the Credit Facility and these guarantees are secured, subject to permitted liens and other specified exceptions, (1) on a first-lien basis, by all the capital stock of Nuveen Investments and certain of its subsidiaries (excluding significant subsidiaries and limited, in the case of foreign subsidiaries, to 100% of the non-voting capital stock and 65% of the voting capital stock of the first tier foreign subsidiaries) directly held by Nuveen Investments or any guarantor and (2) on a first lien basis by substantially all present and future assets of Nuveen Investments and each guarantor.

The senior secured term loan matures on November 13, 2014 and the senior secured revolving credit facility matures on November 13, 2013.

At June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, the fair value of the $2.3 billion term loan facility was approximately $2.2 billion and $2.3 billion, respectively. The Credit Facility contains customary financial covenants, including but not limited to, maximum consolidated total secured leverage, net of certain cash and cash equivalents, and certain other limitations on the Company and certain of the Company’s restricted subsidiaries’ (as defined in the credit agreement) ability to incur additional debt.

Senior Term Notes – Predecessor / Successor

On September 12, 2005, the Predecessor issued $550 million of senior unsecured notes, comprised of $250 million of 5-year notes and $300 million of 10-year notes (“Predecessor senior term notes”), which remain outstanding at June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007. The Company received approximately $544 million in net proceeds after discounts and other debt issuance costs. The 5-year Predecessor senior term notes bear interest at an annual fixed rate of 5.0% payable semi-annually beginning March 15, 2006. The 10-year Predecessor senior term notes bear interest at an annual fixed rate of 5.5% payable semi-annually also beginning March 15, 2006. The net proceeds from the Predecessor senior term notes were used to refinance outstanding indebtedness. The costs related to the issuance of the Predecessor senior term notes were capitalized and amortized to expense over their term. At June 30, 2008, the fair value of the 5-year and 10-year Predecessor senior term notes was approximately $238.3 million and $213.0 million, respectively. At December 31, 2007, the fair value of the 5-year and 10-year Predecessor senior term notes was approximately $229.2 million and $207.9 million, respectively.

Senior Unsecured Notes – Successor

Also in connection with the Transactions, the Company issued $785 million of 10.5% senior unsecured notes (“10.5% senior notes”). The 10.5% senior notes mature on November 15, 2015 and pay a coupon of 10.5% of par value semi-annually on May 15 and November 15 of each year, commencing on May 15, 2008. The

12

Company received approximately $758.9 million in net proceeds after underwriting commissions and structuring fees. The net proceeds were used as part of the financing to consummate the Transactions.

As of June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, the fair value of the $785 million 10.5% senior notes was approximately $726 million and $780 million, respectively.

Obligations under the notes are guaranteed by the Parent and each of our existing, subsequently acquired, and/or organized direct or indirect, domestic, restricted (as defined in the credit agreement) subsidiaries that guarantee the debt under the credit agreement.

Symphony CLO V – Successor

As more fully discussed in Note 10, “Consolidated Funds,” in the Company’s year-end financial statement filing under Form 8-K filed on March 31, 2008, the Company is required to consolidate into its financial results a collateralized loan obligation, Symphony CLO V, in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Although the Company does not hold any equity interest in this investment vehicle, an affiliate of MDP is the majority equity holder. The $378.5 million of Notes Payable and $24.2 million of Subordinated Notes reflected in the table, above, reflect debt obligations of Symphony CLO V. All of this debt is collateralized by the assets of Symphony CLO V.

Other

The Company’s broker-dealer subsidiary may utilize available, uncommitted lines of credit with no annual facility fees, which approximate $50 million, to satisfy unanticipated, short-term liquidity needs. As of June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, no borrowings were outstanding on these uncommitted lines of credit.

Note 6    Derivative Financial Instruments

The Company uses derivative financial instruments to manage the economic impact of fluctuations in interest rates related to its long-term debt and to mitigate the overall market risk for certain recently created product portfolios.

SFAS No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,” as amended by SFAS No. 138, “Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities, an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 133” and further amended by SFAS No. 149, “Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,” (collectively, “SFAS No. 133”), requires recognition of all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value. Derivatives that do not meet the SFAS No. 133 criteria for hedge accounting must be adjusted to fair value through earnings. Changes in the fair value of derivatives that do meet the hedge accounting criteria under SFAS No. 133 are offset against the change in the fair value of the hedged assets or liabilities, with only any “ineffectiveness” (as defined under SFAS No. 133) marked through earnings.

At June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, the Company did not hold any derivatives designated in a formal hedge relationship under the provisions of SFAS No. 133.

Derivative Transactions Related to Financing Part of the Transactions

As of June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, the Company held nine interest rate swap derivative transactions and one collar derivative that effectively convert $2.3 billion of variable rate debt into fixed-rate borrowings. In addition at June 30, 2008 the Company also held two basis swap derivative transactions with a notional amount of $1.5 billion. These basis swap derivatives effectively lock-in the expected future difference between one-month and three-month LIBOR as the primary reference rate for our variable debt. Collectively, these derivatives are referred to as the “New Debt Derivatives.” As further discussed in Note 5, “Debt,” the Company borrowed $2.3 billion under a variable rate term loan facility and $785.0 million under 10.5%

13

senior term notes due 2015 to finance part of the Transactions. The Company recorded $0.9 million in unrealized losses and $0.4 million in realized gains related to the New Debt Derivatives in “Other Income/(Expense)” on the accompanying consolidated statement of income for the six months ended June 30, 2008. As the New Debt Derivatives did not exist until the fourth quarter of 2007, there were no unrealized gains/losses related to the New Debt Derivatives for the six months ended June 30, 2007. At June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, the fair value of the New Debt Derivatives is ($32.6 million) and ($31.7 million), respectively, and is reflected in “Fair Value of Open Derivatives” on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007.

Derivative Transactions Related to Certain Recently Created Product Portfolios

The Company entered into swap agreements and futures contracts that have not been designated as hedging instruments under SFAS No. 133 in order to mitigate overall market risk of certain recently created product portfolios. At June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, the net fair value of these open non-hedging derivatives was approximately $18,000 and $17,000, respectively, and is reflected in “Other Assets” on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2008, the Company recorded approximately $0.1 million of net losses related to these derivatives, comprised of approximately $0.2 million in unrealized gains and $0.3 million in realized losses, both of which are reflected in “Other Income/(Expense)” on the accompanying consolidated statement of income for that period. For the six months ended June 30, 2007, the Company recorded approximately $0.3 million of net losses related to these derivatives, comprised of $0.5 million in unrealized losses and $0.2 million in realized gains, both of which are reflected in “Other Income/(Expense)” on the accompanying consolidated statement of income for that period.

Note 7    Retirement Plans

The following table presents the components of the net periodic retirement plans’ benefit costs for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively:

As of June 30, 2008 the Company has approximately $18.5 million recorded on its balance sheet as obligations for its pension and post-retirement plans. During 2008, the Company expects to contribute approximately $0.5 million to its excess pension plan. The Company does not expect to make any contributions to its qualified pension plan. In addition, the Company expects to contribute $0.6 million, net of expected Medicare Part D reimbursements, for benefit payments to its post-retirement benefit plan during 2008. For the first six months of 2008, the Company has paid out approximately $0.3 million in post-retirement benefits.

Note 8    Investments in Collateralized Loan and Debt Obligations

The Company holds an investment in two collateralized debt obligation entities for which it acts as a collateral manager, Symphony CLO I, Ltd. (“CLO”) and the Symphony Credit Opportunities Fund Ltd. (“CDO”), pursuant to collateral management agreements between the Company and each of the CLO and the CDO entities. At June 30, 2008, combined assets under management in the collateral pools of the CLO and CDO were approximately $836.5 million. The Company had combined minority equity investments of $6.4 million and $9.8 million in the CLO and CDO as of June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, respectively.

The Company accounts for its investments in the CLO and CDO under EITF 99-20, “Recognition of Interest Income and Impairment on Purchased and Retained Beneficial Interests in Securitized Financial Assets.” The excess of future cash flows over the initial investment at the date of purchase is recognized as interest income over the life of the investment using the effective yield method. The Company reviews cash flow estimates throughout the life of the CLO and CDO investment pool to determine whether an impairment of its equity investments should be recognized. Cash flow estimates are based on the underlying pool of collateral securities and take into account the overall credit quality of the issuers in the collateral securities, the forecasted default rate of the collateral securities and the Company’s past experience in managing similar securities. If an updated estimate of future cash flows (taking into account both timing and amounts) is less than the revised estimate, an impairment loss is recognized based on the excess of the carrying amount of the investment over its fair value. As of June 30, 2008, the Company has determined that no impairment of its equity investments exists. The Company has recorded its equity interest in the CLO and CDO in Investments on its consolidated balance sheets at fair value. Fair value is determined using current information, notably market yields and projected cash flows based on forecasted default and recovery rates that a market participant would use in determining the current fair value of the equity interest. Market yields, default rates and recovery rates used in the Company’s estimate of fair

15

value vary based on the nature of the investments in the underlying collateral pools. In the periods of rising credit default rates and lower debt recovery rates, the fair value, and therefore the carrying value, of the Company’s investments in the CLO and CDO may be adversely affected. The Company’s risk of loss in the CLO and CDO is limited to the $6.4 million that remains invested in these entities at June 30, 2008.

Note 9   Symphony CLO V

As further discussed in Note 10, “Consolidated Funds,” in the Company’s March 31, 2008 year-end financial statement filing on Form 8-K, the Company is required to consolidate into its financial results an investment vehicle, Symphony CLO V, in which the Company has no equity interest, but for which an affiliate of MDP is the majority equity holder.

As the Company has no equity interest in Symphony CLO V, all gains and losses recorded in the accompanying consolidated financial statements for 2008 are attributable to other investors. The Company recorded $23.2 million of “Minority Interest Revenue from Consolidated Vehicle” on the accompanying consolidated statement of income for the six months ended June 30, 2008 to reflect the net loss of Symphony CLO V which belongs entirely to the minority owners. As the requirement to consolidate did not exist until the fourth quarter of 2007, there was no minority interest revenue from the consolidated vehicle for the six months ended June 30, 2007. At June 30, 2008, total assets of Symphony CLO V approximated $413.6 million and total liabilities approximated $444.3 million. At December 31, 2007, total assets of Symphony CLO V approximated $463.3 million and total liabilities approximated $470.7 million.

The following table presents a condensed summary of the assets and liabilities for Symphony CLO V that have been consolidated in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2008:

Note 10   Financial Information Related to Guarantor Subsidiaries

As discussed in Note 5, “Debt,” obligations under the senior notes due 2015 are guaranteed by the Parent and each of our present and future, direct and indirect, wholly-owned material domestic subsidiaries (excluding subsidiaries that are broker dealers). The obligations under the Credit Facility and these guarantees are secured, subject to permitted liens and other specified exceptions, (1) on a first-lien basis, by all the capital stock of Nuveen Investments and certain of its subsidiaries (excluding significant subsidiaries and limited, in the case of foreign subsidiaries, to 100% of the non-voting capital stock and 65% of the voting capital stock of the first tier foreign subsidiaries) directly held by Nuveen Investments

16

and any guarantor and (2) on a first lien basis by substantially all present and future assets of Nuveen Investments and each guarantor.

The following tables present consolidating supplementary financial information for the issuer of the notes (Nuveen Investments, Inc.), the issuer’s domestic guarantor subsidiaries, and the non-guarantor subsidiaries together with eliminations as of and for the periods indicated. The issuer’s Parent is also a guarantor of the notes. The Parent was a newly formed entity with no assets, liabilities or operations prior to the completion of the Transactions on November 13, 2007. Separate complete financial statements of the respective guarantors would not provide additional material information that would be useful in assessing the financial composition of the guarantors.
