CHICAGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Nuveen Investments, a leading global provider of investment services to institutions as well as individual investors, today announced the upcoming June 2013 distribution for the Nuveen New York AMT-Free Municipal Income Fund (NYSE MKT: NRK). In a previously announced merger, NRK acquired substantially all of the assets and liabilities of five other Nuveen sponsored New York state municipal closed-end funds. The fund's distribution is listed below and is intended to maintain or increase the overall distribution amount received by shareholders of all six merged funds, relative to the last regular monthly distribution amount received prior to the merger completion.

The following dates apply to today's distribution declaration:

For more detail information regarding this distribution information, please refer to the NRK Post-Merger Reference Guide.

After June 3, 2013, going forward, the fund intends to make regular monthly distributions to its shareholders based on its past and projected performance. The fund will seek to establish a distribution rate that roughly corresponds to the fund's projections of the cash flow that could reasonably be expected to be generated by the fund's portfolio investments net of fund expenses, over an extended period of time. As market conditions and portfolio performance may change, the rate of distributions on the shares and the fund's distribution policy could change.
