The termination and liquidation was performed in accordance with the Fund’s investment objectives and organizational documents, consistent with the fund’s previously announced liquidation plans.

The Nuveen High Income December 2019 Target Term Fund launched on May 10, 2016 as a short duration strategy that invested primarily in high yield corporate debt, with two investment objectives, to provide high current income and return the original net asset value (NAV) of $9.86 per common share upon termination on or about December 1, 2019.

The fund is returning to shareholders an extended NAV of $9.9063 per common share as its liquidating distribution, $0.0463 more than the original $9.86 NAV. Over its three year term, the fund paid 40 monthly distributions and two long-term capital gain distributions totaling $1.7198 per share, which equates to an average distribution rate of 4.90% on NAV and 4.84% on market. The annualized total return on NAV for shareholders who invested at the initial public offering was 5.02% and the market price total return was 4.63%.
