Principal Accountant Fees and Services. |
Nuveen Investment Trust V
The following tables show the amount of fees that PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP ("PwC"), the independent registered public accounting firm, billed to the Registrant during the Registrant's last two full fiscal years. The Audit Committee approved in advance all audit services and non-auditservices that PwC provided to the Registrant, except for those non-auditservices that were subject to the pre-approvalexception under Rule 2-01of Regulation S-X(the "pre-approvalexception"). The pre-approvalexception for services provided directly to the Registrant waives the pre-approvalrequirement for services other than audit, review or attest services if: (A) the aggregate amount of all such services provided constitutes no more than 5% of the total amount of revenues paid by the Registrant during the fiscal year in which the services are provided; (B) the Registrant did not recognize the services as non-auditservices at the time of the engagement; and (C) the services are promptly brought to the Audit Committee's attention, and the Committee (or its delegate) approves the services before the audit is completed.
The Audit Committee has delegated certain pre-approvalresponsibilities to its Chair.

The tables also show the percentage of fees subject to the pre-approvalexception. The pre-approvalexception for services provided to the Adviser and any Affiliated Fund Service Provider (other than audit, review or attest services) waives the pre-approvalrequirement if: (A) the aggregate amount of all such services provided constitutes no more than 5% of the total amount of revenues paid by the Registrant, the Adviser and Affiliated Fund Service Providers during the fiscal year in which the services are provided that would have to be pre-approvedby the Audit Committee; (B) the Registrant did not recognize the services as non-auditservices at the

NON-AUDITSERVICES
The following table shows the amount of fees that PwC billed during the Registrant's last two full fiscal years for non-auditservices. The Audit Committee is required to pre-approve non-auditservices that the Registrant's independent registered public accounting firm provides to the Adviser and any Affiliated Fund Service Provider, if the engagement related directly to the Registrant's operations and financial reporting (except for those subject to the pre-approvalexception described above). The Audit Committee requested and received information from PwC about any non-auditservices rendered during the Registrant's last fiscal year to the Adviser and any Affiliated Fund Service Provider. The Committee considered this information in evaluating PwC's independence.
