 
Nuveen Compliance |  27 January 2025 Code of Ethics – Americas SUMMARY AND SCOPE What the Code is about Helping to ensure that Nuveen personnel place the interests of  Nuveen clients ahead of their own personal interests. Who the Code applies to and what the  implications are This Code applies to individuals in the following categories: • Nuveen Employees based in the US or Canada (except employees of Nuveen Natural Capital, unless your local/ designated Chief Compliance Offi  cer (CCO) and Nuveen Ethics Offi  ce determine otherwise). • Employees of any US-registered investment adviser who are based outside the US. • Consultants, interns, and temporary workers based in the US or Canada whose contract length is 90 days or more, unless the Nuveen Ethics Offi  ce determines otherwise. • TIAA Employees, consultants, interns, and temporary workers designated as Access Persons by the TIAA-CREF Funds Chief Compliance Offi  cer or the Nuveen Ethics Offi  ce. Independent directors and trustees of the TIAA-CREF Funds  Complex and Nuveen-sponsored or -branded funds have their  own Code of Ethics and are not subject to this one. For individuals who are subject to the Code, there are two  designations with diff erent implications: Access Person and  Investment Person. ACCESS PERSON All Nuveen Employees and TIAA Employees who are subject  to the Code are considered Access Persons, since they have,  or could have, access to non-public information about  securities transactions and other investments, holdings, or  recommendations for Affi  liate-Advised Accounts or Portfolios. Key characteristics of this designation. An individual  may be considered an Access Person of multiple advisers  affi  liated with Nuveen, or of only one. If your regular duties  give you access to non-public information, or you are an offi  cer  of a Nuveen or TIAA-CREF sponsored or branded fund, your  personal trading is generally monitored only against the  trading activity of the specifi c adviser(s) or Affi  liated Funds  with which you are involved. For other employees, personal  trading is typically monitored against the trading activities  of all advisers affi  liated with Nuveen. You will generally not  be permitted to execute transactions in a security on any day  when an Affi  liate-Advised Account or Portfolio managed by  the adviser(s) that you are monitored against has a pending  buy or sell order for that security at the time of your pre- clearance request. INVESTMENT PERSON An Access Person who meets any of the following criteria will  in addition be considered an Investment Person: • The Access Person is a Portfolio Manager, Research Analyst or Research Assistant, or they otherwise participate in making recommendations or decisions concerning the purchase or sale of securities in any Affi  liate-Advised Account or Portfolio. • The Access Person has been designated an Investment Person by the affi  liate Chief Compliance Offi  cer or the Nuveen Ethics Offi  ce. Key characteristics of this designation. The vast  majority of Investment Persons are employees of Nuveen’s  affi  liated investment advisers. An Investment Person is prohibited from transacting  in securities during the period starting 7 calendar days  before, and ending 7 calendar days after, any trade in an  Affi  liate-Advised Account or Portfolio for which he/she has  responsibility. In addition, an Investment Person’s personal  transactions will be reviewed for confl icts in the period  starting 7 calendar days before, and ending 7 calendar days  after, all trades by their associated investment adviser(s). In  some cases, the Investment Person may be required to reverse  a trade and/or forfeit an appropriate portion of any profi t as  determined by the Nuveen Ethics Offi  ce. These consequences  can apply whether or not the trade was pre-cleared. The personal trading of Investment Persons is generally only  monitored against the trading activity of the specifi c adviser(s)  for which they have been designated an Investment Person. Important to understand Some of our affi  liated investment advisers may  have supplemental policies of their own that impose  additional rules on the same topics covered in this  Code. Check with your manager or local/designated Chief  Compliance Offi  cer if you have questions. Personal trading is a privilege, not a right. Nuveen  Employees are expected to follow the law and adhere to the  highest standards of behavior—including with respect to  personal trading. Any violation of the Code could have severe  CONFIDENTIAL 
 
 
 
Code of Ethics – Americas Page 2 of 9 adverse effects on you, your co-workers, and Nuveen. You may  be held personally liable for your conduct and be subject to  fines, regulatory sanctions, and even criminal penalties. Because Nuveen can restrict your trading or take actions such  as forcing you to hold a position or to disgorge profits, personal  trading carries risks beyond normal market risks. Some requirements in this Code apply to Household  Members. Each Household Member (see “Terms with Special  Meanings” below) is subject to the same personal trading  restrictions and requirements that apply to his/her related  Nuveen Employee. The Code does not address every ethical issue that  might arise. If you have any doubt at all after consulting the  Code, contact the Nuveen Ethics Office for direction. The Code applies to appearance as well as substance.  Always consider how any action might appear to an outside  observer (such as a client or regulator). You are expected to follow the Code both in letter  and in spirit. Literal compliance, such as pre-clearing a  transaction, does not necessarily protect you from liability  for conduct that violates the spirit of the Code. If you have  questions about how to comply with this Code, consult the  Nuveen Ethics Office.

GENERAL RESTRICTIONS AND REQUIREMENTS BASIC PRINCIPLES 1. Never abuse a client’s trust, rights, or interests. This means you must never do any of the following: • Engage in any plan or action, or use any device, that  would defraud or deceive a client. • Make any material statements of fact that are incorrect or  misleading, either as to what they include or omit. • Engage in any manipulative practice. • Use your position (including any knowledge or access to  opportunities you have gained by virtue of your position)  to personal advantage or to a client’s disadvantage. This  would include, for example, front-running or tailgating  (trading directly before or after the execution of a large  client trade order), or any attempt to influence a client’s  trading to enhance the value of your personal holdings. • Conduct personal trading in any way that could be  inconsistent with your fiduciary duties to a client (even if  it does not technically violate the Code). 2. Handle conflicts of interest appropriately. This  applies not only to actual conflicts of interest, but also to  any situation that might appear to an outside observer to be  improper or a breach of fiduciary duty. CONFIDENTIAL 
 
 
 
Code of Ethics – Americas Page 4 of 9 3. Keep confidential information confidential. Always  properly safeguard any confidential information you obtain  in the course of your work. This includes confidential  information related to any of the following: •  Any Affiliate-Advised Account or Portfolio and any other  financial product offered or serviced by Nuveen. • New products, product changes, or business initiatives. • Past, current, and prospective clients, including their  identities, investments, and account activity. “Keeping information confidential” means using  discretion in disclosing information as well as guarding  against unlawful or inappropriate access by others.  This includes: •  Making sure no confidential information is visible on  your computer screen and desk when you are not there. • Not sharing passwords with others. • Using caution when discussing business in any location  where your conversation could be overheard. Confidential  information may be released only as required by law or  as permitted under the applicable privacy policy(ies).  Consult the Nuveen Ethics Office or your local/designated  CCO before releasing any confidential information. 4. Handle Material Non-Public Information properly.  Follow all terms described in “Material Non-Public  Information” below. Be aware that any failure to handle  such information properly is a serious offense and may lead  to disciplinary action from Nuveen as well as serious civil or  criminal liability. 5. Comply with Federal Securities Laws. Any violation  of these laws is punishable as a violation of the Code. 6. Never do anything indirectly that, if done directly,  would violate the Code. Such actions will be considered  the equivalent of direct Code violations. 7. Promptly alert the Nuveen Ethics Office or your  local/designated CCO of any actual or suspected  wrongdoing. Examples of wrongdoing include violations  of the Federal Securities Laws, misuse of corporate assets,  misuse of confidential information, or other violations of  the Code. If you prefer to report confidentially, call the  TIAA Confidential Helpline at 1-877-774-6492. Note that  failure to report suspected wrongdoing in a timely fashion  is itself a violation of the Code. PRE-CLEARANCE AND  HOLDING REQUIREMENTS 8. Pre-clear any trade in Reportable Securities,  including certain Affiliated Funds (see box on next  page for additional information). If your trade requires pre-clearance, request approval  through the StarCompliance system (StarCompliance)  before you or any Household Member places an order  to buy or sell any Reportable Security. Any approval  you receive expires at the end of the day it was granted;  however, you may place after-hours trades in international  markets until 11:59 PM local time on that day. When  requesting pre-clearance, follow this process: • Request pre-clearance on the same day you want to trade,  during standard US trading hours (9:30 AM to 4:00 PM  ET). Be sure your pre-clearance request is accurate as to  security and direction of trade. • Wait for approval to be displayed before trading. If you  receive approval, you may only trade that same day, and  only within the scope of approval. If you do not receive  approval, do not trade • Place day orders only. Do not place good-till-canceled  orders or limit orders that expire beyond the day of  pre-clearance approval. You may place orders for an  after-hours trading session or in foreign markets using  that day’s pre-clearance approval, but you must not place  any order that could remain open into the next day’s  trading session. 9. Hold positions in securities that are subject to pre- clearance for 60 calendar days, or be prepared to  forfeit any gains. Several things to note: • You may be required to surrender any gains realized (net  of commissions) through a violation of this rule. • The 60-day holding requirement is tested on a last-  in-first-out basis, across all of your holdings (not just  within individual accounts). • The 60-day holding requirement extends to any options  or other transactions that may have the same effect as a  purchase or sale, and to all Reportable Securities except  Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs), Exchange Traded Notes  (ETNs), Unit Investment Trusts (UITs), and open-end  Affiliated Funds.  • Closed-end funds, including Nuveen branded or  sponsored closed-end funds, are subject to the 60-day  holding requirement.  • You may sell the security on the 60th day after purchase,  provided you obtain pre-clearance or an approved  exemption applies. • You may re-purchase a security immediately after  executing a sale of that same security subject to pre- clearance approval, which will trigger a new 60 calendar  day holding period. • You may close a position at a loss at any time provided   pre-clearance approval has been obtained, or an  approved exemption applies. If your pre-clearance has  been denied, it is advisable that you contact the Nuveen  Ethics Office if you are seeking to sell at a loss within 60  days of your purchase. Note that if there are conflicts  with any other provisions of the Code, your pre-clearance  denial will not be overridden.  10. Comply with trading restrictions described in the  prospectuses for all Affiliated Funds. This includes  restrictions on frequent trading in shares of any open-end  Affiliated Fund.  CONFIDENTIAL 
 
 
 
Code of Ethics – Americas Page 5 of 9 11. Pre-clear any transaction in a Managed Account  that involves your influence. You must also  immediately consult with the Nuveen Ethics Office to  discuss whether the account in question can properly  remain classified as a Managed Account. 12. Obtain the required approvals before any  transaction in a Private Placement, including  PIPEs. Participation and approval for all transactions in  Private Placements advised or sub-advised by Nuveen, is  facilitated by the Nuveen Employee Investment Program  (NuveenEIP@nuveen.com).   For all other Private Placements, you must obtain approval  for initial and subsequent commitments to invest but not  sales/redemptions. Be aware that sales/redemptions are  Reportable Transactions. Approval is required even if the  investment is made in a Managed Account. WHAT NEEDS TO BE PRE-CLEARED  Pre-clearance required • All actively initiated trades in Reportable Securities, except  those listed here under “No pre- clearance required.” • The sale of restricted stock or employee stock options  accrued during prior employment or a Household  Member’s employment require pre-clearance. If pre-  clearance is denied, you may contact the Nuveen Ethics  Office to request reconsideration. • You may liquidate a position recently acquired through  inheritance or a spin-off, subject to pre-clearance  approval. If your pre-clearance has been denied, you may  contact the Nuveen Ethics Office to seek an exemption. Be aware that pre-clearance can be withdrawn even after  it has been granted, and even after you have traded, if  Nuveen later becomes aware of Affiliate-Advised Account  or Portfolio trades whose existence would have resulted in  denial of pre-clearance. In these cases, you may be required  to reverse a trade and/or forfeit an appropriate portion of  any profit, as determined by the Nuveen Ethics Office. Be aware that trades initiated by a broker to address the  financial standing of an account can result in violations  and will generally not be protected by the Code’s “actively  initiated trade” language for trades requiring pre- clearances. Examples include, but are not limited to,  brokers initiating trades in margin accounts, brokers  initiating trades to cover account fees, and brokers initiating  trades to remediate a minimum or negative cash balance  in an account. Pre-clearance not required • Shares of any open-end mutual fund (including Affiliated  Funds). Note that closed-end funds, including Nuveen  branded or sponsored closed-end funds, require  pre-clearance. • ETFs, ETNs, UITs (including options on ETFs and ETNs). • CDs and commercial paper. • Securities acquired or disposed of through actions outside  your control or issued pro rata to all holders of the same class  of investment, such as automatic dividend reinvestments,  stock splits, mergers, spin-offs, or rights subscriptions. • The automatic exercise or liquidation by an exchange of a  derivative instrument upon expiration or the delivery of  securities pursuant to a written option that is exercised  against you, and the assignment of options. • Sales pursuant to a bona fide tender offer. • Trades made through an Automatic Investment Plan that  have been disclosed to the Nuveen Ethics Office in advance. • Trades in a Managed Account (except that you must  pre-clear any trades that involve your influence, any  initial purchases of Private Placements, purchases in  any equity IPO, and any sales or redemptions of Private  Placements that are branded, sponsored, advised or sub- advised by Nuveen). • Foreign currencies, including futures. • Commodity instruments. • Index options and index futures. • Direct investments in cryptocurrencies. • Crypto instruments that are comprised of and invest solely in  cryptocurrencies. OTHER RESTRICTIONS 13. Never knowingly trade any security being traded  or considered for trade by any Affiliate-Advised  Account or Portfolio. This applies to employee  transactions in securities that are exempt from pre- clearance and includes equivalent or related securities. For example, if a company’s common stock is being  traded, you may face restrictions on trading any of  the company’s debt, preferred, or foreign equivalent  securities, and from trading or exercising any options  based on the company’s securities. 14. Always prioritize client trades over personal  trades. Your fiduciary duties to the client are far more  important than your personal trading, which is a privilege  and not a right. Never delay or in any way alter the timing  or terms of a client trade for your personal benefit. 15. Do not engage in trading that involves single  stock futures. 16. Do not engage in uncovered short sales of  individual securities. 17. You may trade options on individual securities,  subject to the 60-day holding period. Options  traded must have an expiration of at least 60 days from  the date that you enter into the contract. You are not  permitted to close an option at a profit within 60 days of  having entered into the contract. The option contract can  be closed in less than 60 days at a loss, provided pre- clearance approval has been obtained. CONFIDENTIAL 
 
 
 
Code of Ethics – Americas Page 6 of 9 18. Never participate in an investment club or  similar entity. 19. Do not engage in excessive or inappropriate  trading activity. Never let personal trading  interfere with your professional duties. The  Nuveen Ethics Office  will monitor for potentially  excessive or inappropriate trading, and notify you, your  manager, and your local/designated CCO for assessment. 20. Pre-clear the sale of securities in a margin  account. Margin accounts are permitted, however you  must obtain pre-clearance when selling to meet a margin  call, even if the transaction is initiated by a broker.    21. Never purchase an IPO without advance  approval. This includes Managed Accounts. Equity IPO  participation is generally prohibited but approval may be  granted in special circumstances, such as when: • You already have equity in the company and are  offered shares. • You are a policy holder or depositor in a company that is  demutualizing. • A Household Member has been offered  shares  as an employee. Purchases of initial offerings of SPACs, fixed income  securities, convertible securities, preferred securities,  open- and closed-end funds, commodity pools, and  secondary equity offerings are generally permitted subject  to prior approval from the Nuveen Ethics Office. MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION  What is Material Non-Public Information? Material Non-Public Information is defined as information  regarding any security, securities-based derivatives or  issuer of a security that is both material and non-public.  Information is material if both of the following are true: • A reasonable investor would likely consider it important  when making an investment decision. • Public release of the information would likely affect the  price of a security. Information is generally non-public if it has not been  distributed through a widely used public medium, such  as a press release or a report, filing or other periodic  communication. Restrictions and requirements • Any time you think you might have, or may be about to,  come into possession of Material Non-Public Information  (whether in connection with your position at Nuveen or  not), alert the Nuveen Ethics Office. Alternatively, you  may alert your local/designated CCO or Legal office, who  in turn must promptly notify the Nuveen Ethics Office.  Follow the instructions you are given. • Until you receive further instructions from the Nuveen  Ethics Office, your local/designated CCO, or Legal, do not  take any action in relation to the information, including  trading or recommending the relevant securities or  communicating the information to anyone else. • Never make decisions on your own regarding potential  Material Non-Public Information, including whether such  information is actually Material Non-Public Information or  what steps should be taken. • If the Nuveen Ethics Office, your local/designated CCO  and/or Legal determine that you have Material Non-  Public Information:  – Do not buy, sell, gift, or otherwise dispose of the issuer’s  securities, whether on behalf of an Affiliate-Advised  Account or Portfolio, yourself, or anyone else.  – Do not in any way recommend, encourage, or influence  others to transact in the issuer’s securities, even if you do  not specifically disclose or reference the Material Non-  Public Information.  – Do not communicate the Material Non-Public  Information to anyone, whether inside or outside Nuveen,  except in discussions with the Nuveen Ethics Office and  Legal and as expressly permitted by any confidentiality  agreement or supplemental policies and procedures of  your business unit. • Please refer to Nuveen’s Material Non-Public Information  and Insider Trading Policy for detailed information.

Code of Ethics – Americas Page 7 of 9 REPORTING REQUIREMENTS  UPON BECOMING A NUVEEN EMPLOYEE 22. Within 10 calendar days of starting at Nuveen,  acknowledge receipt of the Code. This includes  certifying that you have read the Code, understand it,  recognize that you are subject to it, have complied with  all of its applicable requirements, and have submitted all  Code-required reports. 23. Within 10 calendar days of starting at  Nuveen, use StarCompliance to report all of  your Reportable Accounts and holdings in  Reportable Securities. Report all Reportable Accounts using StarCompliance  within 10 calendar days of starting at Nuveen, making  sure that you include information about the broker, dealer,  or bank through which the account is held and the type  of account. You must report all holdings in Reportable  Securities in StarCompliance within 10 calendar days by  uploading the most recent statement. You must also enter  each Reportable Security into StarCompliance as an initial  holding if: 1) the account is an account type not required  to be maintained with an approved broker as described  in item 25 below (excluding Managed Accounts), or 2) you  wish to sell a Reportable Security in an approved broker  account, or in transition to an approved broker account,  prior to the establishment of the broker’s electronic feed.    For each Reportable Security, provide the security name  and type, a ticker symbol or CUSIP, the number of shares  or units held, and the principal amount (dollar value). This information must be no older than 45 calendar days  before your first day of employment. Note that there are separate procedures for Managed  Accounts, as described below in item 27.  24. Within 10 calendar days of starting at Nuveen,  report all current investments in Private  Placements (limited offerings). Limited offerings are  Reportable Securities. 25. Within 30 calendar days of starting at Nuveen,  move or close any Reportable Account that is not  at an approved firm. This does not include Reportable  Accounts that are 401(k), HSA, ESPP/ESOP, or 529  plans, or Reportable Accounts that cannot trade or hold  Reportable Securities. Accounts held directly with a  mutual fund complex or mutual fund only platform that  are not held with a bank or broker-dealer, and in which  open-end non-Affiliated Funds are the only possible  investment are not reportable. Contact the Nuveen Ethics  Office if you are unsure whether your account must be  held with an approved firm. The list of approved firms  is maintained by the Nuveen Ethics Office and may be  accessed on StarCompliance. Under very limited circumstances, it may be possible to  obtain a waiver to keep a Reportable Account at a non-  approved firm. Examples include: • An account owned by a Household Member who works  at another financial firm with comparable restrictions. • An account that holds securities that cannot  be transferred. • An account that cannot be moved because of a  trust agreement. To apply for an exception, contact the Nuveen Ethics  Office. For any account granted an exception, you  are required to upload statements for the account in  StarCompliance based on the frequency with which a  statement is generated for the account (e.g. monthly,  quarterly). In all cases, if your accounts are not held  at an approved firm, you must manually enter all  Reportable Transactions in StarCompliance within 5  days of execution. Consultants and temporary workers are generally not  required to move or close Reportable Accounts. 26. Within 30 calendar days of starting at Nuveen,  seek approval to liquidate any securities held  prior to starting at Nuveen that you do not wish  to continue to hold. If you wish to liquidate securities  that you held prior to joining Nuveen, seek approval by  contacting the Nuveen Ethics Office within 30 calendar  days of starting at Nuveen. If you do not liquidate  securities during this time, you will generally forfeit this  consideration for liquidation. WHEN OPENING ANY MANAGED ACCOUNT 27. Get pre-approval for any new Managed Account  before any trading activity commences and  report the account within 10 calendar days of the date  you or a Household Member opens the account or  an account becomes a Reportable Account through  marriage, cohabitation, divorce, death, or another event.  Using the appropriate form which may be accessed in  StarCompliance, provide representations that support the  classification of the account as a Managed Account. For an  account to be classified as a Managed Account, the account  owner must have no direct or indirect influence or control  over the securities in the account. The form must be signed  by the account’s broker or investment manager and by all  account owners. The broker or investment manager may  provide a Managed Account agreement or letter which  substantiates the account as managed in lieu of signing  the form. You may be asked periodically to confirm these  representations or submit an updated form to confirm such. CONFIDENTIAL 
 
 
 
Code of Ethics – Americas Page 8 of 9 Note that upon request, you are also responsible for  providing duplicate statements for the Managed Account  to the Nuveen Ethics Office. WHEN OPENING ANY NEW  REPORTABLE ACCOUNT  28. Report any new Reportable Account, including  Managed Accounts. Do this in StarCompliance within  10 calendar days of the date you or a Household member  opens the account or an account becomes a Reportable  Account through marriage, cohabitation, divorce, death, or  another event.  EVERY QUARTER 29. Within 30 calendar days of the end of each  calendar quarter, verify in StarCompliance that  all Reportable Transactions made during that  quarter have been reported. StarCompliance will  display all transactions of yours for which it has received  notice (except transactions in your TIAA pension and  retirement plan accounts, which you are not required  to report because the firm accesses this information  directly). For any other Reportable Transactions not  displayed, or displayed inaccurately, you are responsible  for making any necessary revisions in StarCompliance  prior to completing your certification. 30. For each Reportable Transaction, you must  provide, as applicable, the transaction date,  security name and type, ticker symbol or CUSIP,  interest rate (coupon) and maturity date, number  of shares, price at which the transaction was  effected, principal amount (dollar value), the  nature of the trade (buy or sell), and the name  of the broker, dealer, or bank that effected the  transaction. It is very important that you carefully  review and verify the transactions and related details  displayed in StarCompliance, checking for accuracy  and completeness. Once again, if you find any errors or  omissions, correct or add to your list of transactions in  StarCompliance. EVERY YEAR 31. Within 45 calendar days of the end of each  calendar year, acknowledge receipt of the  most recent version of the Code and certify in  StarCompliance as to your annual Reportable  Security holdings and Reportable Accounts. The reporting must contain the information described  in item 23 above and include your certification that you  have reported all Reportable Accounts, and all holdings  in Reportable Securities at year end. You are responsible  for ensuring that all of your Reportable Accounts have  been accurately reported in StarCompliance. If any of  your holdings in Reportable Securities are not displayed  in StarCompliance or are displayed inaccurately, you are  responsible for entering adjustments and trade confirms  or making any necessary revisions in StarCompliance to  complete your certification. In addition, you must affirm each year through  StarCompliance that each Managed Account is properly  classified as a Managed Account, for yourself and on  behalf of any Household Member. This affirmation does  not require broker or investment manager involvement. You also must acknowledge any amendments to the Code  that occur during the course of the year.
