Nuveen Investments, a leading global provider of investment services to institutions as well as individual investors, today announced that the Board of Trustees of Nuveen Dividend Advantage Municipal Income Fund (NVG) has approved the fund’s plan to redeem a portion of its preferred shares. The fund has filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission a notice of intention to redeem a portion of its outstanding Variable Rate Demand Preferred (VRDP) shares.

VRDP shares will be redeemed at their $100,000 liquidation preference per share, plus an optional redemption premium and an additional amount representing the final accumulated dividend amounts owed. The fund intends to finance its preferred share redemption with cash on hand and from the proceeds of sales of securities in its investment portfolio. The redemption is contingent upon the completion of the fund’s previously announced common share tender offer, which may be delayed or extended as determined by the Board. Formal notice of the redemption will be delivered to preferred shareholders at a later date through The Depository Trust Company (DTC).

The fund intends to redeem a portion of its preferred shares are as follows:

          Fund   Common Share Symbol   VRDP CUSIP

Nuveen Dividend Advantage Municipal Income Fund

  NVG   67071L 700    

The anticipated redemption date is October 21, 2014.

The address of the VRDP shares tender and paying agent, The Bank of New York Mellon, is 101 Barclay Street, New York, New York 10286.

No VRDP shares have been registered under the Securities Act of 1933 (the Securities Act) or any state securities laws. Unless so registered, no VRDP shares may be offered or sold in the United States except pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws. This press release is neither an offer to sell nor a solicitation of an offer to buy any of these securities.
