The goal of the fund’s level distribution program is to provide shareholders with stable, but not guaranteed, cash flow, independent of the amount or timing of income earned or capital gains realized by the fund. The fund intends to distribute all or substantially all of its net investment income through its regular monthly distribution and to distribute realized capital gains at least annually. In any monthly period, in order to maintain its level distribution amount, the fund may pay out more or less than its net investment income during the period. As a result, regular distributions throughout the year are expected to include net investment income and potentially a return of capital and/or capital gains for tax purposes. If a distribution includes anything other than net investment income, the fund provides a notice of the best estimate of its distribution sources at the time of the distribution which may be viewed at www.nuveen.com/CEFdistributions. These estimates may not match the final tax characterization (for the full year’s distributions) contained in shareholders’ 1099-DIV forms after the end of the year.

You should not draw any conclusions about the Fund’s investment performance from the amount of the distribution. A return of capital is a non-taxable distribution of a portion of a Fund’s capital. A distribution including return of capital does not necessarily reflect a Fund’s investment performance and should not be confused with “yield” or “income.”

JFR seeks to achieve a high level of current income by investing in secured senior loans and unsecured senior loans, which unsecured senior loans will be, at the time of investment, investment grade quality. The fund’s portfolio is managed by Nuveen’s Leveraged Finance team, one of the industry’s best resourced and tenured managers of senior loan portfolios.
