Item 1.  Reports to Stockholders.









Dear Fellow Shareholders,


February 28, 2010 marked the end of our eleventh fiscal year, a period marked by a sharp rebound in the stock market. Although not all news was good, certain highlights again confirmed our fundamental strengths:

1.

We passed the $1 million mark in dividends and interest received for the second straight year, receiving $1,008,921, down 5.6% from $1,068,797 a year earlier, due to the dividend cuts in early 2009. However, most of our companies have continued to increase their payouts.

2.

We lowered total expenses by 6.4%, to $322,491, from $344,532 in the previous fiscal year. So the slight increase in the expense ratio (from 0.96% to 0.98%) was a function of the lower asset values that prevailed as the fiscal year began. We believe that the market recovery should help us to once again lower the expense ratio.

3.

We increased our annual dividend for the eighth consecutive year, paying 21.51¢ per share, up 3.3% from 20.83¢ a year earlier. Since inception, the fund has paid a total of $2.35301 per share in dividends and capital gains distributions.

4.

We limited portfolio turnover to 14.73%, despite replacing five components during the fiscal year.

We believe that these results indicate that our fundamental approach has continued to work well during a variety of investment climates. As we begin our twelfth year of operations, our focus remains on the long term, during which we believe that the wisdom of owning high-quality companies and adding to them on a consistent basis will be even more apparent.

    Once again, we congratulate DRIPX shareholders for their discipline and patience, and hope that you will join us in continuing to augment your holdings on a regular basis, allowing us to take advantage of what we believe are compelling opportunities in the stock market over the long term.

The performance information shown represents past performance and should not be interpreted as indicative

of the Fund's future performance. The performance also reflects reinvestment of all dividend and capital gain

distributions.

  
   

The graph does not reflect deduction for taxes shareholders would pay on fund distributions and redemption

of shares.  Return and share price will fluctuate so that shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less

than their original cost.

THE MP63 FUND, INC.

Notes to Financial Statements

February 28, 2010


NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION

The MP63 Fund (the "Fund") is organized as a Maryland Corporation, incorporated on October 13, 1998, and registered as an open-end, diversified, management investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.  The Fund's business and affairs are managed by its officers under the direction of its Board of Directors.  The Fund's investment objective is to seek long-term capital appreciation for shareholders.


NOTE 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund.  These policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.


A.

Security Valuation - Portfolio securities traded on a national securities exchange are stated at the last reported sales price or a market’s official close price on the day of valuation. Portfolio securities for which market quotations are readily available are valued at market value. Portfolio securities for which market quotations are not considered readily available are valued at fair value on the basis of valuations furnished by a pricing service approved by the Board of Directors. The pricing service determines valuations for normal, institutional-size trading units of such securities using methods based on market transactions for comparable securities and various relationships between securities that are generally recognized by institutional traders. There were no securities valued under this pricing service for 2009 or 2008.


Fixed income securities generally are valued by using market quotations, but may be valued on the basis of prices furnished by a pricing service when the Adviser believes such prices accurately reflect the fair market value of such securities. A pricing service utilizes electronic data processing techniques based on yield spreads relating to securities with similar characteristics to determine prices for normal institutional-size trading units of debt securities without regard to sale or bid prices. If the Advisor decides that a price provided by the pricing service does not accurately reflect the fair market value of the securities, when prices are not readily available from a pricing service, or when restricted or illiquid securities are being valued, securities are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Advisor, in conformity with guidelines adopted by and subject to review of the Board of Trustees. Short term investments in fixed income securities with maturities of less than 60 days when acquired, or which subsequently are within 60 days of maturity, are valued by using the amortized cost method of valuation, which the Board has determined will represent fair value.


In accordance with the Fund’s good faith pricing guidelines, the Advisor is required to consider all appropriate factors relevant to the value of securities for which it has determined other pricing sources are not available or reliable as described above.  No single standard for determining fair value controls, since fair value depends upon the circumstances of each individual case.  As a general principle, the current fair value of securities being valued by the Advisor would appear to be the amount which the



THE MP63 FUND, INC.

Notes to Financial Statements

February 28, 2010


owner might reasonably expect to receive for them upon their current sale.  Methods which are in accord with this principle may, for example, be based on (i) a multiple of earnings; (ii) a discount from market of a similar freely traded security (including a derivative security or a basket of securities traded on other markets, exchanges or among dealers); or (iii) yield to maturity with respect to debt issues, or a combination of these and other methods.  All securities were based on quoted market prices as of February 28, 2010.


The Financial Accounting Standards Board has issued FASB ASC 105 (formerly FASB Statement No. 168), The “FASB Accounting Standards Codification™” and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) (“ASC 105”). ASC 105 established the FASB Accounting Standards Codification™ (“Codification” or “ASC”) as the single source of authoritative GAAP recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities. Rules and interpretive releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under authority of federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. The Codification supersedes all existing non-SEC accounting and reporting standards. All other non-grandfathered, non-SEC accounting literature not included in the Codification will become nonauthoritative.


Following the Codification, the FASB will not issue new standards in the form of Statements, FASB Staff Positions or Emerging Issues Task Force Abstracts. Instead, it will issue Accounting Standards Updates, which will serve to update the Codification, provide background information about the guidance and provide the basis for conclusions on the changes to the Codification.  GAAP is not intended to be changed as a result of the FASB's Codification project, but it will change the way the guidance is organized and presented. As a result, these changes will have a significant impact on how companies reference GAAP in their financial statements and in their accounting policies for financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. The Fund has implemented the Codification as of February 28, 2010.

  

The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized below:



Level 1 - quoted prices in active markets for identical investments


Level 2 - other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.)


Level 3 - significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund's own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)



The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.


The following table summarizes the valuation of the Fund’s investments by the above fair value hierarchy levels as of February 28, 2010:

B.

Security Transactions and Related Investment Income - Securities transactions are accounted for on the trade date.  Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date.  Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis.


C.

Federal Income Taxes - The Fund complies with requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies, distributing all of its taxable income to its shareholders.  Therefore, no provision for Federal income tax is required.  There are no unrecognized tax benefits in the accompanying financial statements in connection with tax positions taken by the Fund.  The Fund’s tax returns are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for a period of three years.  There are currently no open tax years prior to February 28, 2007.


D.

Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders - The Fund records dividends and distributions to shareholders on the ex-dividend date. The Fund will distribute its net investment income, if any, and net realized capital gains, if any, annually.


E.

Credit Risk - Financial instruments that potentially subject the Fund to credit risk include cash deposits in excess of federally insured limits.


F.

Use of Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.


NOTE 3.  INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT AND OTHER RELATED PARTY

  TRANSACTIONS

The Fund has entered into an investment advisory agreement (the "Agreement") with The Moneypaper Advisor, Inc. (the "Advisor").  Under this Agreement, the Advisor provides the Fund with investment advice and supervises the Fund's management and investment programs.  As compensation for the services rendered, the Fund pays the Advisor a fee accrued daily based on an annualized rate of .35% of the daily net asset value.  For the year ended February 28, 2010, the Advisor earned fees of $114,807.


The Advisor has voluntarily agreed to defer its advisory fee and to reimburse the Fund for other expenses if the total operating expenses of the Fund exceed an annual rate of 1.25% of average daily net assets.  Under the terms of the Agreement, fees deferred or expenses reimbursed by the Advisor are subject to reimbursement by the Fund, if so requested by the Advisor, up to five years from the fiscal year the fee or expense was incurred. However, no reimbursement

Notes to Financial Statements

February 28, 2010



payment will be made by the Fund if it would result in the Fund exceeding the voluntary expense limitation described above.


An affiliate of the Advisor provides certain administrative services to the Fund. These expenses amounted to $58,328 during the year ended February 28, 2010.


The Fund has an administrative agreement with Mutual Shareholder Services (The "Administrator"). Under this agreement, the Administrator provides the Fund with administrative, transfer agency, and fund accounting services.  Mutual Shareholder Services charges an annual fee of approximately $42,000 for services rendered based on the Fund’s current asset size.  


The Fund is responsible for the cost of printing, postage, telephone costs and certain other out-of-pocket expenses. Vita Nelson is an officer and director of the Advisor and also an officer and director of the Fund.


The Fund currently pays each Director an annual retainer of approximately $2,000.


The Chief Compliance Officer is paid approximately $1,000 per month.  For the year ended February 28, 2010 the Chief Compliance Officer was paid $12,234.


NOTE 4. INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS

For the year ended February 28, 2010, purchases and sales of securities, excluding short-term   investments, aggregated $4,680,789 and $4,911,356, respectively.  As of February 28, 2010, cumulative unrealized depreciation amounted to the follow:


             Unrealized appreciation                                    $6,014,976

Unrealized depreciation

Net unrealized appreciation

$2,380,195


For Federal income tax purposes, the cost of investments owned at February 28, 2010 was $34,040,711.


NOTE 5.  TAX INFORMATION

Distributions are determined on a tax basis and may differ from net investment income and realized capital gains for financial reporting purposes. Differences may be permanent or temporary.  Permanent differences are reclassified among capital accounts in the financial statements to reflect their tax character.  Temporary differences arise when certain items of income, expense, gain or loss are recognized in different periods for financial statement and tax purposes; these differences will reverse at some time in the future.  Differences in classification may also result from the treatment of short-term gain as ordinary income for tax purposes.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm



To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of

The MP63 Fund, Inc.:


We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of The MP63 Fund, Inc. (the “Fund”), including the schedule of investments as of , and the related statements of operations and changes in net assets for the year than ended, the statement of changes in net assets for the years ended  and , and the financial highlights for the years ended , , February 28 2008, 2007 and 2006. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.


We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement.  We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements and financial highlights.  An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.


In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of The MP63 Fund, Inc as of , the results of its operations, changes in its net assets and the financial highlights as described above in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Expense Example

As a shareholder of the MP63 Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchase payments, reinvested dividends, or other distributions; redemption fees; and exchange fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution [and/or service] (12b-1) fees; and other Fund expenses.  This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period, September 1, 2009 through February 28, 2010.

Actual Expenses

The first line of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

The second line of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratios and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which are not the Fund’s actual returns. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in this Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

The MP63 Fund’s


AUDIT COMMITTEE POLICY

ON

PRE-APPROVAL OF SERVICES PROVIDED BY THE INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS



The Audit  Committee of The MP63 Fund,  Inc. (the "Fund") is charged with the  responsibility  to  monitor  the  independence  of the  Fund's  independent accountants.   As  part  of  this  responsibility,   the  Audit  Committee  must pre-approve any independent  accounting firm's engagement to render audit and/or permissible  non-audit  services,  as required by law. In  evaluating a proposed engagement of the independent  accountants,  the Audit Committee will assess the effect  that  the  engagement  might  reasonably  be  expected  to  have  on the accountant's independence. The Committee's evaluation will be based on:


O

a review of the nature of the professional services expected to be provided,


O

a review of the safeguards put into place by the accounting firm to safeguard independence, and


O

periodic meetings with the accounting firm.


POLICY FOR AUDIT AND NON-AUDIT SERVICES PROVIDED TO THE FUNDS


On an annual basis,  the scope of audits for the Fund,  audit fees and expenses, and audit-related and non-audit  services (and fees proposed in respect thereof) proposed to be performed by the Fund's independent accountants will be presented by the  Treasurer and the  independent  accountants  to the Audit  Committee for review and, as  appropriate,  approval prior to the initiation of such services. Such presentation shall be accompanied by confirmation by both the Treasurer and the independent accountants that the proposed services will not adversely affect the  independence of the  independent  accountants.  Proposed  services shall be described  in  sufficient  detail to enable  the Audit  Committee  to assess the appropriateness  of  such  services  and  fees,  and  the  compatibility  of the provision of such services with the auditor's independence.  The Committee shall receive  periodic  reports on the progress of the audit and other services which are approved by the Committee or by the Committee Chairman pursuant to authority delegated in this Policy.


The categories of services  enumerated  under "Audit  Services",  "Audit-related Services",  and "Tax Services" are intended to provide guidance to the Treasurer and the  independent  accountants  as to those  categories of services which the Committee  believes  are  generally  consistent  with  the  independence  of the independent  accountants  and which the Committee  (or the  Committee  Chairman) would expect upon the  presentation of specific  proposals to  pre-approve.  The enumerated   categories  are  not  intended  as  an  exclusive  list  of  audit, audit-related  or tax services  which the Committee (or the Committee  Chairman) would consider for pre-approval.
