("New Jersey Investment"), Nuveen New Jersey Premium Income Municipal Fund, Inc.

If no choice is so specified, the shares of each Fund will be voted FOR the election of the nominees as listed in this Joint Proxy Statement. Shareholders of any Fund who execute proxies may revoke them at any time before they are voted by filing with that Fund a written notice of revocation, by delivering a duly executed proxy bearing a later date, or by attending the Annual Meeting and voting in person. This Joint Proxy Statement is first being mailed to shareholders of the Funds on or about November 14, 2002. The Board of each Fund has determined that the use of this Joint Proxy Statement for each Fund's Annual Meeting is in the best interest of each Fund and its shareholders in light of the similar matters being considered and voted on by the shareholders. Shareholders of each Fund will vote separately on each proposal relating to their Fund, and a vote on a proposal by the shareholders of one Fund will not affect the vote on the proposal by the shareholders of another Fund. The following table indicates which shareholders are solicited with respect to each matter: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- MATTER COMMON SHARES MUNIPREFERRED(1) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1a(i). Election of Board Members by all X X shareholders (except New York Value) (Robert P. Bremner, Lawrence H. Brown, Anne E. Impellizzeri, Peter R. Sawers and Judith M. Stockdale nominated) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- a(ii). Election of Board Members by N/A X MuniPreferred only (except New York Value) (William J. Schneider and Timothy R. Schwertfeger nominated) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- b. Election of Board Member for New York X N/A Value by all shareholders (Anne E. Impellizzeri nominated) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (1) "MuniPreferred" means "Municipal Auction Rate Cumulative Preferred Shares." A quorum of shareholders is required to take action at each Fund's Annual Meeting. A majority of the shares entitled to vote at each Annual Meeting, represented in person or by proxy, will constitute a quorum of shareholders at that Annual Meeting, except that for the election of the two Board Member nominees to be elected by holders of MuniPreferred of each Fund (except New York Value), 33 1/3% of the MuniPreferred shares entitled to vote and represented in person or by proxy will constitute a quorum. Votes cast by proxy or in person at each Annual Meeting will be tabulated by the inspectors of election appointed for that Annual Meeting. The inspectors of election will determine whether or not a quorum is present at the Annual Meeting. The inspectors of election will treat abstentions and "broker non-votes" (i.e., shares held by brokers or nominees, typically in "street name," as to which (i) instructions have not been received from the beneficial owners or persons entitled to vote and (ii) the broker or nominee does not have discretionary voting power on a particular matter) as present for purposes of determining a quorum. For each Fund (except New Jersey Dividend, New York Dividend, New York Dividend 2, Pennsylvania Investment, Pennsylvania Premium 2 and Pennsylvania Dividend, the "Massachusetts Business Trusts"), abstentions and broker non-votes will be treated as shares voted against the election of Board Members. For the Massachusetts Business Trusts, abstentions 2 and broker non-votes will have no effect on the election of Board Members. The details of the proposal to be voted on by the shareholders of each Fund and the vote required for approval of the proposal are set forth under the description of the proposal below. Those persons who were shareholders of record at the close of business on October 22, 2002 will be entitled to one vote for each share held.

Moreover, no 10 Independent Board Member (or immediate family member of any Independent Board Member) has, or has had in the last two fiscal years of the Funds, any direct or indirect relationships or any direct or indirect material interest in any transaction or series of transactions or in any currently proposed transaction or series of transactions, in which the amount involved exceeds $60,000, in which the following persons were or are a party: the Funds, an officer of the Funds, any investment company sharing the same Adviser or principal underwriter of the Funds or any officer of such a party, any person directly or indirectly controlling, controlled by or under common control with, the Adviser or principal underwriter of the Funds, or any officer of such a person. Within the last two completed fiscal years of the Funds, no officer of any investment adviser or principal underwriter of the Funds or of any person directly or indirectly controlling, controlled by or under common control with the investment adviser or principal underwriter of the Funds, has served as a board member on a board of a company where any of the Board Members or Nominees of the Funds has served as an officer. COMPENSATION The Board Members affiliated with Nuveen Investments or the Adviser serve without any compensation from the Funds. The Independent Board Members receive a $15,000 quarterly retainer ($60,000 annually) for serving as a board member of all funds affiliated with Nuveen and the Adviser and a $1,750 fee per day plus expenses for attendance in person or by telephone at all meetings (including any committee meetings) held on a day on which a regularly scheduled Board meeting is held, a $1,000 fee per day plus expenses for attendance in person or a $500 fee per day plus expenses for attendance by telephone at all meetings (including any committee meetings) held on a day on which no regular Board meeting is held, and a $500 fee per day plus expenses for attendance in person or $250 if by telephone at a meeting of any committee. The annual retainer, fees and expenses are allocated among the funds managed by the Adviser on the basis of relative net asset sizes although Fund management may, in its discretion, establish a minimum amount to be allocated to each Fund. Effective January 1, 1999, the Boards of certain Nuveen Funds (the "Participating Funds") established a Deferred Compensation Plan for Independent Board Members ("Deferred Compensation Plan"). Under the Deferred Compensation Plan, Independent Board Members of the Participating Funds may defer receipt of all, or a portion, of the compensation they earn for their services to the Participating Funds, in lieu of receiving current payments of such compensation. Any deferred amount is treated as though an equivalent dollar amount had been invested in shares of one or more eligible Nuveen funds. Each Independent Board Member, other than Mr. Brown, has elected to defer at least a portion of their fees. Each of the Funds except New York Value, Insured New York, New York Dividend, New York Dividend 2, New Jersey Dividend and Pennsylvania Dividend are Participating Funds under the Deferred Compensation Plan. The table below shows, for each Board Member who is not affiliated with Nuveen or the Adviser, the aggregate compensation (i) paid by each Fund to each Board Member for its last fiscal year and (ii) paid (including deferred fees) for service on the boards of the Nuveen open-end and closed-end Funds managed by NAC ("NAC Funds") for the calendar year ended 11 2001. Mr. Schwertfeger, a Board Member who is an interested person of each Fund, does not receive any compensation from the Fund or any Nuveen funds.

COMMITTEES Each Board has five standing committees: the executive committee, the audit committee, the governance committee, the dividend committee and the valuation committee. Peter R. Sawers and Timothy R. Schwertfeger serve as members of the executive committee of the Board of each Fund. The executive committee, which meets between regular meetings of the Board, is authorized to exercise all of the powers of the Board; provided that the scope of the powers of the executive committee, unless otherwise specifically authorized by the full Board, are limited to: (i) emergency matters where assembly of the full Board is impracticable (in which case management will take all reasonable steps to quickly notify each individual Board Member of the actions taken by the executive committee) or (ii) matters of an administrative or ministerial nature. The executive committee of each Fund held no meetings during their last fiscal year. Lawrence H. Brown and Timothy R. Schwertfeger are current members of the dividend committee. The dividend committee is authorized to declare distributions on the Funds' shares including, but not limited to, regular and special dividends, capital gains and ordinary income distributions. The dividend committee of each Fund with a September fiscal year end (the New York Funds) held five meetings during its last fiscal year; the dividend committee of each Fund with a June fiscal year end (the New Jersey and Pennsylvania Funds) held four meetings during its last fiscal year. Lawrence H. Brown and Judith M. Stockdale are current members of the valuation committee for each Fund. The valuation committee oversees the Funds' Pricing Procedures including, but 13 not limited to, the review and approval of fair value pricing determinations made by Nuveen's Valuation Group. The valuation committee held one meeting during its last fiscal year. Each Fund's Board has an audit committee composed of Board Members who are not "interested persons" of the Fund and who are "independent" as that term is defined in Section 303.01(B)(2)(a) and (3) of the New York Stock Exchange's listing standards or Section 121(A) of American Stock Exchange's listing standards, as applicable. The audit committee monitors the accounting and reporting policies and practices of the Funds, the quality and integrity of the financial statements of the Funds, compliance by the Funds with legal and regulatory requirements and the independence and performance of the external and internal auditors. The audit committee reviews the work and any recommendations of the Fund's independent auditors. Based on such review, it is authorized to make recommendations to the Board. A copy of the Audit Committee Charter is attached to the proxy statement as Appendix A. The audit committee of each Fund held two meetings during its last fiscal year. Nomination of those Board Members who are not "interested persons" of each Fund is committed to a governance committee composed of all Board Members who are not "interested persons" of that Fund. It identifies and recommends individuals to be nominated for election as non-interested Board Members. The committee also reviews matters relating to (1) the composition, duties, recruitment, independence and tenure of Board Members, (2) the selection and review of committee assignments, and (3) Board Member education, board meetings and board performance. The governance committee of each Fund held one meeting during its last fiscal year. In the event of a vacancy on the Board, the governance committee receives suggestions from various sources as to suitable candidates. Suggestions should be sent in writing to Lorna Ferguson, Vice President for Board Relations, Nuveen Investments, 333 West Wacker Drive, Chicago, IL 60606. The governance committee sets appropriate standards and requirements for nominations for new Board Members and reserves the right to interview all candidates and to make the final selection regarding the nomination of any new Board Members. The Board of each Fund held four regular quarterly meetings and one special board meeting during its last fiscal year. During the last fiscal year, each Board Member attended 75% or more of each Fund's Board meetings and the committee meetings (if a member thereof). THE FUND'S OFFICERS The following table sets forth information as of November 1, 2002 with respect to each officer of the Funds, other than Mr. Schwertfeger, who is a Board Member and is included in the table relating to nominees for the Board. Officers of the Funds receive no compensation 14 from the Funds. The officers of each Fund are elected by the Board on an annual basis to serve until successors are elected and qualified. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ POSITIONS AND OFFICES NUMBER OF WITH THE FUND, TERM PRINCIPAL OCCUPATIONS PORTFOLIOS IN NAME, BIRTHDATE AND OF OFFICE AND LENGTH INCLUDING OTHER DIRECTORSHIPS FUND COMPLEX ADDRESS OF TIME SERVED DURING PAST FIVE YEARS SERVED BY OFFICER ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Michael T.

AUDIT COMMITTEE REPORT The Audit Committee of the Board of each Fund is responsible for assisting the Board in monitoring (1) the quality and integrity of the Fund's financial statements, (2) each Fund's compliance with regulatory requirements, and (3) the independence and performance of the Fund's independent and internal auditors. Among other responsibilities, the Committee reviews, in its oversight capacity, each Fund's annual financial statements with both management and the independent auditors and the Committee meets periodically with the independent and internal auditors to consider their evaluation of the Fund's financial and internal controls. The Committee also recommends to the Board the selection of each Fund's independent auditors. The Committee is currently composed of six Board Members and operates under a written charter adopted and approved by the Board. Each Committee member is independent as defined by New York Stock Exchange and American Stock Exchange listing standards, as applicable. The Committee, in discharging its duties, has met with and held discussions with management and each Fund's independent and internal auditors. The Committee has reviewed and discussed the audited financial statements with management. Management has represented to the independent auditors that each Fund's financial statements were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The Committee has also discussed with the independent auditors the matters required to be discussed by 18 Statement on Auditing Standards No. 61 (Communications with Audit Committees). Each Fund's independent auditors provided to the Committee the written disclosure required by Independent Standards Board Standard No. 1 (Independent Discussions with Audit Committees), and the Committee discussed with representatives of the independent auditor their firm's independence. As provided in the Audit Committee Charter, it is not the Committee's responsibility to determine, and the considerations and discussions referenced above do not ensure, that each Fund's financial statements are complete and accurate and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Based on the Committee's review and discussions with management and the independent auditors, the representations of management and the report of the independent auditors to the Committee, the Committee has recommended that the Board include the audited financial statements in each Fund's Annual Report. The members of the Committee are: Robert P. Bremner Peter R. Sawers Lawrence H. Brown William J. Schneider Anne E. Impellizzeri Judith M. Stockdale 19 AUDIT AND RELATED FEES AUDIT FEES. The aggregate fees billed by Ernst & Young LLP for professional services for the audit of each Fund's financial statements for its most recently completed fiscal year were as follows: ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- FINANCIAL INFORMATION AUDIT SYSTEMS DESIGN AND ALL OTHER FUND FEES IMPLEMENTATION FEES FEES ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- New Jersey Dividend $ 6,838 $0 $2,279 New Jersey Investment 12,049 0 2,461 New Jersey Premium 9,027 0 2,355 New York Value 6,950 0 83 New York Performance 10,375 0 2,402 New York Investment 11,313 0 2,434 New York Select 13,393 0 2,507 New York Quality 13,587 0 2,514 Insured New York 7,643 0 2,307 New York Dividend 7,858 0 2,314 New York Dividend 2 6,828 0 2,278 Pennsylvania Dividend 5,757 0 2,241 Pennsylvania Investment 10,507 0 2,407 Pennsylvania Premium 2 10,205 0 2,396 ALL NON-AUDIT FEES. The Audit Committee of each Fund has generally considered whether the receipt of non-audit fees by Ernst & Young LLP from the Fund is compatible with maintaining Ernst & Young LLP's independence. APPOINTMENT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS Each Fund's Board of Directors/Trustees has appointed Ernst & Young LLP, independent public accountants, as independent auditors to audit the books and records of each Fund for its fiscal year. A representative of Ernst & Young LLP will be present at the meeting to make a statement, if such representative so desires, and to respond to shareholders' questions. Ernst & Young LLP has informed each Fund that it has no direct or indirect material financial interest in the Fund, Nuveen, the Adviser or any other investment company sponsored by Nuveen. SECTION 16(A) BENEFICIAL INTEREST REPORTING COMPLIANCE Section 30(h) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act") and Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "1934 Act"), require each Fund's Board Members and officers, investment adviser, affiliated persons of the investment adviser and persons who own more than 10% of a registered class of the Funds' equity securities to file forms reporting their affiliation with that Fund and reports of ownership and changes in ownership of that Fund's shares with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") and the New York Stock Exchange or American Stock Exchange, as applicable. These persons and entities are required by SEC regulation to furnish the Funds with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file. Based on a review of these forms furnished to each Fund, each Fund believes that the Fund's Board Members and officers, investment adviser and affiliated persons of the investment adviser have complied with all applicable 20 Section 16(a) filing requirements during its last fiscal year. To the knowledge of management of the Funds, no shareholder of a Fund owns more than 10% of a registered class of a Fund's equity securities. INFORMATION ABOUT THE FUNDS' INVESTMENT ADVISER The Adviser, located at 333 West Wacker Drive, Chicago, Illinois, serves as investment adviser and manager for each Fund. The Adviser is a wholly owned subsidiary of The John Nuveen Company, 333 West Wacker Drive, Chicago, Illinois 60606. The John Nuveen Company is approximately 78% owned by The St. Paul Companies, Inc. ("St. Paul"). St. Paul is located at 385 Washington Street, St. Paul, Minnesota 55102, and is principally engaged in providing property-liability insurance through subsidiaries. SHAREHOLDER PROPOSALS To be considered for presentation at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders of any of the Funds to be held in 2003, a shareholder proposal submitted pursuant to Rule 14a-8 of the 1934 Act must be received at the offices of that Fund, 333 West Wacker Drive, Chicago, Illinois 60606, not later than July 17, 2003. A shareholder wishing to provide notice in the manner prescribed by Rule 14a-4(c)(1) of a proposal submitted outside of the process of Rule 14a-8 must submit such written notice to the Fund not later than September 30, 2003. Timely submission of a proposal does not mean that such proposal will be included. EXPENSES OF PROXY SOLICITATION The cost of preparing, printing and mailing the enclosed proxy, accompanying notice and proxy statement, and all other costs in connection with the solicitation of proxies, will be paid by the Funds pro rata based on the number of shareholder accounts. Additional solicitation may be made by letter, telephone or telegraph by officers or employees of Nuveen Investments or Nuveen Advisory Corp., or by dealers and their representatives. FISCAL YEAR The last fiscal year for the New Jersey Funds and Pennsylvania Funds was June 30, 2002 and for the New York Funds was September 30, 2002. ANNUAL REPORT DELIVERY Annual reports for the Funds' fiscal year ended in 2002 were sent (New Jersey and Pennsylvania Funds) or will be sent (New York Funds) to shareholders of record of each Fund following each Fund's fiscal year end. Each Fund will furnish, without charge, a copy of its annual report and/or semi-annual report as available upon request. Such written or oral requests should be directed to such Fund at 333 West Wacker Drive, Chicago, Illinois 60606 or by calling 1-800-257-8787. GENERAL Management does not intend to present and does not have reason to believe that any other items of business will be presented at any Fund's Annual Meeting. However, if other matters are properly presented to the Annual Meeting for a vote, the proxies will be voted by the persons acting under the proxies upon such matters in accordance with their judgment of the best interests of the Fund. 21 A list of shareholders entitled to be present and to vote at each Fund's Annual Meeting will be available at the offices of the Funds, 333 West Wacker Drive, Chicago, Illinois, for inspection by any shareholder during regular business hours beginning ten days prior to the date of that Annual Meeting. Failure of a quorum to be present at any Annual Meeting will necessitate adjournment and will subject that Fund to additional expense. The persons named in the enclosed proxy may also move for an adjournment of any Annual Meeting to permit further solicitation of proxies with respect to any of the proposals if they determine that adjournment and further solicitation is reasonable and in the best interests of the shareholders. Under each Fund's By-Laws, an adjournment of a meeting requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting. IF YOU CANNOT BE PRESENT AT THE MEETING, YOU ARE REQUESTED TO FILL IN, SIGN AND RETURN THE ENCLOSED PROXY PROMPTLY. NO POSTAGE IS REQUIRED IF MAILED IN THE UNITED STATES. Gifford R. Zimmerman Chief Administrative Officer November 14, 2002 22 APPENDIX A NUVEEN MANAGEMENT INVESTMENT COMPANIES AUDIT COMMITTEE CHARTER January 31, 2002 ORGANIZATION There shall be a committee of each Board of Directors/Trustees of the Nuveen Management Investment Companies to be known as the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee shall be composed of at least three Directors/Trustees. Audit Committee Members shall be independent of the Management Investment Companies and free of any relationship that, in the opinion of the Directors/Trustees, would interfere with their exercise of independent judgment as a committee member. Each such member of the Audit Committee shall have a basic understanding of finance and accounting and be able to read and understand fundamental financial statements, and at least one such member shall have accounting or related financial management expertise, in each case as determined by the Directors/ Trustees, exercising their business judgment. STATEMENT OF POLICY The Audit Committee shall assist the Board in monitoring (1) the accounting and reporting policies and practices of the Management Investment Companies (hereafter referred to as "Funds" or individually "Fund"), (2) the quality and integrity of the financial statements of the Funds, (3) the compliance by the Funds with legal and regulatory requirements and (4) the independence and performance of the external and internal auditors. In doing so, the Audit Committee shall seek to maintain free and open means of communication among the Directors, the independent auditors, the internal auditors and the management of Nuveen. The Audit Committee shall have the authority in its discretion to retain special legal, accounting or other consultants to advise the Committee. The Audit Committee may request any officer or employee of the John Nuveen Company or the Funds' independent auditors or outside counsel to attend a meeting of the Committee or to meet with any members of, or consultants to, the Committee. The Funds' independent auditors and internal auditors shall have unrestricted accessibility at any time to committee members. RESPONSIBILITIES Fund management has the primary responsibility to establish and maintain systems for accounting, reporting and internal control. The independent auditors have the primary responsibility to plan and implement an audit, with proper consideration given to the accounting, reporting and internal controls. The independent auditors are ultimately accountable to the Board and Audit Committee. It is the ultimate responsibility of the Board and the Audit Committee for selection, evaluation and replacement of the independent auditors. 1 In carrying out its responsibilities the Audit Committee believes its policies and procedures should remain flexible, in order to react to changing conditions and requirements applicable to the Funds. The audit Committee is responsible for the following: Fund Financial Statements: 1. Reviewing the annual audited financial statements with Fund management including major issues regarding accounting and auditing principles and practices. 2. Requiring the independent auditors to deliver to the Chairman of the Committee a timely report on any issues relating to the significant accounting policies, management judgments and accounting estimates or other matters that would need to be communicated under SAS 61, that arise during the auditor's review of the Fund's financial statements, which information shall be further communicated by the Chairman to the other members of the Committee, as deemed necessary or appropriate in the judgment of the Chairman. With respect to the independent auditors: 3.
