President's Message

To Our Valued Shareholders:

Over the past year, the short-term debt markets continued their recovery from the worst effects of the global financial crisis, but even with that healing, the market environment was hardly hospitable for money market fund investors. The sovereign debt crisis in Europe, anemic economic growth globally and record low interest rates combined to present investors with some very difficult challenges.

At BofA Global Capital Management, we responded to those challenges by maintaining our focus on what is important to investors in the BofA Funds—principal preservation, a high degree of liquidity and achieving the best yields possible consistent with an emphasis on principal preservation and liquidity. To achieve those objectives, we employ sophisticated risk management processes and a conservative approach to security selection that we believe will better insulate our funds from market turbulence. Recognizing the importance of human capital to effective risk management, we have also strengthened our investment team by adding seasoned credit analysts and other talented professionals, whose insights we believe will better position us to manage portfolio risk.

The investments we made in our business—and by extension, in our clients—was an important component of our transition from the liquidity asset management arm of Columbia Management to BofA Global Capital Management. As you may know, Bank of America sold Columbia Management's equity and fixed income asset management businesses to Ameriprise Financial earlier this year. Bank of America elected to retain Columbia Management's liquidity asset management platform in part because of the importance of high-quality liquidity strategies to the bank's clients. We are pleased to report that we completed the transition of Columbia Management's liquidity asset management business to BofA Global Capital Management without disrupting Fund shareholders.

Unfortunately "disruption" was the operative word for the short-term debt markets during the past year. The deteriorating fiscal condition of many European governments raised concerns about the prospect of sovereign debt defaults and their impact on European financial institutions. The crisis, which some observers viewed as a threat to the viability of the European Union, had little direct impact on our funds' performance, as our conservative investment philosophy helped us limit our exposure to European bank debt. In the U.S., the Securities and Exchange Commission imposed new restrictions on the amount of investment risk the managers of money market funds can assume in order to make funds more stable during market crises. BofA Global Capital Management's money market funds were little affected by the SEC's mandates because we had adopted many of the requirements well in advance of their implementation dates.

Looking ahead, we can expect the challenging market environment to continue for the immediate future. The European debt crisis, while somewhat contained, has not been resolved completely and probably will not be until European governments adopt difficult structural reforms. In the United States, many states and municipalities face tough fiscal problems of their own due to declining tax revenues. Finally, record low interest rates continue to place heavy downward pressure on yields. In this environment, the best course of action for liquidity investors, in our view, is to pursue an investment program that emphasizes principal protection but also positions investors to benefit when rates begin to rise. We believe our focus on liquidity-oriented investment strategies, our experienced investment professionals and the resources available to us as part of one of the world's largest financial institutions make BofA Global Capital Management an ideal partner to help you navigate today's challenging markets. We look forward in the months ahead to demonstrating the value we can offer you, and we are grateful for the opportunity to have served you over the past year.

Sincerely,

Michael Pelzar
President, BofA Global Capital Management Group, LLC




Understanding Your ExpensesBofA California Tax-Exempt Reserves

As a fund shareholder, you incur ongoing costs, which generally include investment advisory fees, distribution and service (Rule 12b-1) fees and other fund expenses. The information on this page is intended to help you understand the ongoing costs of investing in the fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

Analyzing your fund's expenses by share class

To illustrate these ongoing costs, we have provided an example and calculated the expenses paid by investors in each share class during the period. The information in the following table is based on an initial investment of $1,000, which is invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period. Expense information is calculated two ways and each method provides you with different information. The amount listed in the "Actual" column is calculated using the fund's actual operating expense ratios and actual total return for the period. The amount listed in the "Hypothetical" column for each share class also uses the fund's actual operating expense ratios but assumes that the return each year is 5% before expenses. You should not use the hypothetical account values and expenses to estimate either your actual account balance at the end of the period or the expenses you paid during the period.

Compare with other funds

Since all mutual funds are required to include the same hypothetical calculations about expenses in shareholder reports, you can use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the fund with other funds. To do so, compare the 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of other funds. As you compare hypothetical examples of other funds, it is important to note that hypothetical examples are meant to highlight the ongoing costs of investing in a fund.

Estimating your actual expenses

To estimate the expenses that you paid over the period, first you will need your account balance at the end of the period:

g  For shareholders who receive their account statements from Boston Financial Data Services, Inc., your account balance is available online at www.bofacapital.com or by calling Shareholder Services at 888.331.0904

g  For shareholders who receive their account statements from their financial intermediary, contact your financial intermediary to obtain your account balance.

1.  Divide your ending account balance by $1,000. For example, if an account balance was $8,600 at the end of the period, the result would be 8.6.

2.  In the section of the table below titled "Expenses paid during the period," locate the amount for your share class. You will find this number in the column labeled "Actual." Multiply this number by the result from step 1. Your answer is an estimate of the expenses you paid on your account during the period.

If the value of your account falls below the minimum initial investment requirement applicable to you, your account generally will be subject to an annual fee of up to $20. This fee is not included in the accompanying table. If you are subject to the fee, keep it in mind when you are estimating the ongoing expenses of investing in the fund and when comparing the expenses of this fund with other funds.

Expenses paid during the period are equal to the annualized expense ratio for the share class, multiplied by the average account value over the period, then multiplied by the number of days in the fund's most recent fiscal half-year and divided by 365.

Had the investment advisor and/or any of its affiliates not waived fees or reimbursed a portion of expenses, account value at the end of the period would have been reduced.

It is important to note that the expense amounts shown in the table are meant to highlight only ongoing costs of investing in the fund.

Notes to Financial StatementsBofA California Tax-Exempt Reserves
August 31, 2010

Note 1. Organization

BofA California Tax-Exempt Reserves (the "Fund"), formerly Columbia California Tax-Exempt Reserves, a series of BofA Funds Series Trust (the "Trust"), is a non-diversified fund. The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end management investment company organized as a Delaware statutory trust.

As of the close of business on December 31, 2009, the Fund acquired all of the assets and liabilities of Columbia California Tax-Exempt Reserves (the "Predecessor Fund"), a series of Columbia Funds Series Trust, pursuant to a reorganization. The reorganization qualified as a tax-free exchange for federal income tax purposes.

As part of the reorganization, each of the Predecessor Fund's share classes were reorganized into the corresponding share class of the Fund. Prior to the reorganization, the financial information of the Fund includes the financial information of the Predecessor Fund. The Predecessor Fund was organized as a separate series of Columbia Funds Series Trust, a Delaware statutory trust, and was registered under the 1940 Act as an open-end management investment company. The Fund is continuing the business, including carrying forward the financial and performance history, of the Predecessor Fund.

Investment Objective

The Fund seeks current income exempt from federal income tax and California individual income tax, consistent with capital preservation and maintenance of a high degree of liquidity.

Fund Shares

The Trust may issue an unlimited number of shares and the Fund offers seven classes of shares: Capital Class, Trust Class, Liquidity Class, Adviser Class, Investor Class, Daily Class, and Institutional Class shares. Each class of shares is offered continuously at net asset value.

Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Management has evaluated the events and transactions that have occurred through the date the financial statements were issued and noted no items requiring adjustment of the financial statements or additional disclosures.

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements.

Security Valuation

Securities in the Fund are valued utilizing the amortized cost valuation method permitted in accordance with Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act provided certain conditions are met, including that the Fund's Board of Trustees continues to believe that the amortized cost valuation method fairly reflects the market-based net asset value per share of the Fund. This method involves valuing a portfolio security initially at its cost and thereafter assuming a constant accretion or amortization to maturity of any discount or premium, respectively. The Fund's Board of Trustees has established procedures intended to stabilize the Fund's net asset value for purposes of sales and redemptions at $1.00 per share. These procedures include determinations, at such intervals as the Board of Trustees deems appropriate and reasonable in light of current market conditions, of the extent, if any, to which the Fund's market based net asset value deviates from $1.00 per share. In the event such deviation exceeds 1/2 of 1%, the Board of Trustees will promptly consider what action, if any, should be initiated.

GAAP establishes a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value giving the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical securities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements) when market prices are not readily available or reliable. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:

•  Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical securities


19



BofA California Tax-Exempt Reserves, August 31, 2010

•  Level 2 – the Fund's assets assigned to the Level 2 input category represent certain short-term obligations which are valued using amortized cost, an income approach which converts future cash flows to a present value based upon the discount or premium at purchase.

•  Level 3 – prices determined using significant unobservable inputs. In situations where quoted prices or observable inputs are unavailable or less reliable, unobservable inputs may be used. Unobservable inputs may include management's own assumptions about the factors market participants would use in pricing an investment.

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

On January 21, 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued an Accounting Standards Update (the "Amendment"), Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820): Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements, which provides guidance on how investment assets and liabilities are to be valued and disclosed. Specifically, the Amendment requires reporting entities to disclose the inputs and valuation techniques used to measure fair value for both recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements for Level 2 and Level 3 positions. The Amendment also requires that transfers between all levels (including Level 1 and Level 2) be disclosed on a gross basis (i.e., transfers out must be disclosed separately from transfers in), and requires disclosure of the reason(s) for the transfer. Additionally, purchases, sales, issuances and settlements must be disclosed on a gross basis in the Level 3 rollforward. The effective date of the Amendment is for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the requirement to provide the Level 3 activity for purchases, sales, issuances and settlements on a gross basis, which will be effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2010. At this time, management is evaluating the implications of the Amendment.

Security Transactions

Security transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Cost is determined and gains (losses) are based upon the specific identification method for both financial statement and federal income tax purposes.

Income Recognition

Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Premium and discount are amortized and accreted, respectively, on all debt securities, unless otherwise noted.

Expenses

General expenses of the Trust are allocated to the Fund and other series of the Trust based upon relative net assets or other expense allocation methodologies determined by the nature of the expense. Expenses directly attributable to the Fund are charged to the Fund.

Determination of Class Net Asset Value

All income, expenses (other than class-specific expenses, as shown on the Statement of Operations) and realized and unrealized gains (losses) are allocated to each class of the Fund on a daily basis for purposes of determining the net asset value of each class. Income and expenses are allocated to each class based on the settled shares method, while realized and unrealized gains (losses) are allocated based on the relative net assets of each class.

Federal Income Tax Status

The Fund intends to qualify each year as a "regulated investment company" under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended, and will distribute substantially all of its tax exempt or taxable income, if any, for its tax year, and as such will not be subject to federal income taxes. In addition, the Fund intends to distribute in each calendar year substantially all of its net investment income, capital gains and certain other amounts, if any, such that the Fund should not be subject to federal excise tax. Therefore, no federal income or excise tax provision is recorded.

Distributions to Shareholders

Distributions from net investment income, if any, are declared daily and paid monthly. Net realized capital gains, if any, are distributed at least annually after the fiscal year in which the capital gains were earned or more frequently to seek to maintain a net asset value of $1.00 per share, unless offset by any available capital loss carryforward. Income distributions and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP.


20



BofA California Tax-Exempt Reserves, August 31, 2010

Indemnification

In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnities. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown because this would involve future claims against the Fund. Also, under the Trust's organizational documents and by contract, the Trustees and officers of the Trust are indemnified against certain liabilities that may arise out of actions relating to their duties to the Trust. However, based on experience, Management expects the risk of loss due to these representations, warranties and indemnities to be minimal.

Note 3. Federal Tax Information

The timing and character of income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. Reclassifications are made to the Fund's capital accounts for permanent tax differences to reflect income and gains available for distribution (or available capital loss carryforwards) under income tax regulations.

For the year ended August 31, 2010, permanent book and tax basis differences resulting primarily from differing treatments for prior year undistributed tax-exempt income were identified and reclassified among the components of the Fund's net assets as follows:

Undistributed
Net Investment
Income
  Accumulated
Net Realized Loss
  Paid-In Capital  
$ (275,154 )   $     $ 275,154    

 

The tax character of distributions paid during the year ended August 31, 2010 and August 31, 2009 was as follows:

    August 31,  
Distributions paid from   2010   2009  
Tax-Exempt Income   $ 985,063     $ 38,172,943    
Ordinary Income*     120       276,104    
Long-Term Capital Gains              

 

*  For tax purposes short-term capital gain distributions, if any, are considered ordinary income distributions.

As of August 31, 2010, the components of distributable earnings on a tax basis were as follows:

Undistributed
Tax-Exempt
Income
  Undistributed
Ordinary
Income
  Undistributed
Long-Term
Capital Gains
 
$ 731,210     $     $    

 

The following capital loss carryforwards may be available to reduce taxable income arising from future net realized gains on investments, if any, to the extent permitted by the Internal Revenue Code:

Year of Expiration   Capital Loss
Carryforwards
 
2018   $ 1,020,340    

 

Management is required to determine whether a tax position of the Fund is more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by the applicable taxing authority, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefit to be recognized by the Fund is measured as the largest amount of benefit that is greater than fifty percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Management is not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months. However, management's conclusions may be subject to review and adjustment at a later date based on factors including, but not limited to, new tax laws, regulations, and administrative interpretations (including relevant court decisions). The Fund's federal tax returns for the prior three fiscal years remain subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service.

Note 4. Fees and Compensation Paid to Affiliates

Bank of America, N.A., an indirect parent company of Columbia Management Group, LLC ("Columbia") (now known as BofA Global Capital Management Group, LLC) entered into an agreement dated September 29, 2009, to sell a portion of the asset management business of Columbia to Ameriprise Financial, Inc. The transaction ("Transaction") included the sale of the part of the asset management business that advises long-term mutual funds, but did not include the sale of the part of the asset management business that advises the Fund. The transaction closed on May 1, 2010 (the "Closing"). Effective

Investment Advisory Fee

BofA Advisors, LLC ("BofA"), an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of Bank of America Corporation ("BOA"), provides investment advisory services to the Fund. BofA receives a monthly investment advisory fee, calculated based on the combined average net assets of the Fund and certain other money market funds advised by BofA, at the following annual rates:

Average Daily Net Assets   Annual Fee Rates  
First $175 billion     0.15 %  
$175 billion to $225 billion     0.13 %  
Over $225 billion     0.08 %  

 

BofA has contractually agreed to limit the combined investment advisory fee and administration fee for the Fund to an annual rate of 0.19% of the Fund's average net assets through December 31, 2010. There is no guarantee that this expense limitation will continue after December 31, 2010.

For the year ended August 31, 2010, the Fund's annualized effective advisory fee rate, net of fee waivers, was 0.15% of the Fund's average daily net assets.

Administration Fee

BofA provides administrative and other services to the Fund for a monthly administration fee, calculated based on the combined average net assets of the Fund and certain other money market funds advised by BofA, at the following annual rates, less the fees payable by the Fund as described under the Pricing and Bookkeeping Fees note below:

Average Daily Net Assets   Annual Fee Rates  
First $125 billion     0.10 %  
$125 billion to $175 billion     0.05 %  
Over $175 billion     0.02 %  

 

Additionally, effective May 1, 2010, BofA has retained State Street Bank and Trust Company ("State Street") to provide certain sub-administration services under a Sub-Administration Agreement. BofA pays State Street a fee for all services received under the Sub-Administration Agreement.

Pricing and Bookkeeping Fees

Prior to May 1, 2010, the Trust had a Financial Reporting Services Agreement (the "Financial Reporting Services Agreement") with State Street Bank and BofA pursuant to which State Street provided financial reporting services to the Fund. Prior to May 1, 2010, the Trust had an Accounting Services Agreement (collectively with the Financial Reporting Services Agreement, the "Former State Street Agreements") with State Street and BofA pursuant to which State Street provided accounting services to the Fund. Effective May 1, 2010, the Trust entered into an amended and restated Financial Reporting Services Agreement and an amended and restated Accounting Services Agreement with State Street and BofA (the "Current State Street Agreements") pursuant to which State Street provides the Fund with services similar to those provided under the Former State Street Agreements. Under the Current State Street Agreements, the Fund pays State Street an annual fee of $38,000 paid monthly plus an additional monthly fee based on an annualized percentage rate of average daily net assets of the Fund for the month. The aggregate fee will not exceed $140,000 per year (exclusive of out-of-pocket expenses and charges). The Fund also reimburses State Street for certain out-of-pocket expenses and charges.

Prior to May 1, 2010, the Trust had a Pricing and Bookkeeping Oversight and Services Agreement (the "Services Agreement") with BofA. Under the Services Agreement, BofA provided services related to Fund expenses and the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, and provided oversight of the accounting and financial reporting services


22



BofA California Tax-Exempt Reserves, August 31, 2010

provided by State Street. Under the Services Agreement, the Fund reimbursed BofA for out-of-pocket expenses and charges, including fees payable to third parties, such as for pricing the Fund's portfolio securities, incurred by BofA in the performance of services under the Services Agreement. The Services Agreement was terminated upon the Closing, and the services that were provided thereunder are covered under an amended and restated administration agreement with BofA.

Transfer Agent Fee

Prior to May 1, 2010, Columbia Management Services, Inc. (the "Former Transfer Agent"), an affiliate of BofA Global Capital Management Group, LLC ("BofA Global Capital Management") and an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of BOA, provided shareholder services to the Fund and had contracted with Boston Financial Data Services, Inc. ("BFDS" or the "Current Transfer Agent") to serve as sub-transfer agent. Effective January 1, 2010, the Former Transfer Agent was entitled to receive a fee for its services, paid monthly, at the annual rate of $22.36 per account plus reimbursement of certain sub-transfer agent fees paid by the Former Transfer Agent (exclusive of BFDS fees), calculated based on assets held in omnibus accounts and intended to recover the cost of payments to other parties (including affiliates of BOA) for services to those accounts. Prior to January 1, 2010, the annual rate was $17.34 per account. The Former Transfer Agent paid the fees of BFDS for services as sub-transfer agent and was not entitled to reimbursement for such fees from the Fund.

The Former Transfer Agent was also entitled to retain, as additional compensation for its services, fees for wire, telephone and redemption orders, Individual Retirement Account ("IRA") trustee agent fees and account transcript fees due to the Former Transfer Agent from shareholders of the Fund and credits (net of bank charges) earned with respect to balances in accounts the Former Transfer Agent maintained in connection with its services to the Fund. The Former Transfer Agent also received reimbursement for certain out-of-pocket expenses.

Effective May 1, 2010, the Current Transfer Agent acts as transfer agent for the Fund's shares. Under a transfer agency agreement with the Trust, the Current Transfer Agent provides transfer agency, dividend disbursing agency and shareholder servicing agency services to the Fund.

An annual minimum account balance fee of up to $20 may apply to certain accounts with a value below the Fund's minimum investment requirements to reduce the impact of small accounts on transfer agent fees. These minimum account balance fees are recorded as part of expense reductions on the Statement of Operations. For the year ended August 31, 2010, no minimum account balance fees were charged by the Fund.

Distribution and Service Fees

BofA Distributors, Inc. (the "Distributor"), an affiliate of BOA, is the principal underwriter of the Fund's shares.

The Trust has adopted distribution plans ("Distribution Plans") for the Liquidity Class, Investor Class and Daily Class shares of the Fund. The Distribution Plans adopted pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act, permit the Fund to compensate or reimburse the Distributor and/or selling agents for activities or expenses primarily intended to result in the sale of the classes' shares.

The Trust also has adopted shareholder servicing plans ("Servicing Plans") for the Liquidity Class, Adviser Class, Investor Class and Daily Class shares of the Fund. The Servicing Plans permit the Fund to compensate or reimburse servicing agents for the shareholder services they have provided.

A substantial portion of the expenses incurred pursuant to these plans is paid to affiliates of BOA and the Distributor. The annual rates in effect and plan limits, as a percentage of average daily net assets are as follows:

Distribution Plans:   Current Rate
(after fee
waivers)
  Plan Limit  
Liquidity Class shares     0.15 %*     0.25 %**  
Investor Class shares     0.10 %     0.10 %  
Daily Class shares     0.35 %     0.35 %  
Servicing Plans:  
Liquidity Class shares     0.15 %*     0.25 %**  
Adviser Class shares     0.25 %     0.25 %  
Investor Class shares     0.25 %     0.25 %  
Daily Class shares     0.25 %     0.25 %  

 

*  The Distributor has contractually agreed to waive Distribution Plan fees and/or Servicing Plan fees through December 31, 2010 as a percentage of the Fund's Liquidity Class shares average daily net assets at an annual rate of 0.10%, so that combined fees will not exceed 0.15%. There is no guarantee that this waiver will continue after December 31, 2010. The amount of the waiver is included in the fees waived by shareholder service provider on the Statement of Operations.


23



BofA California Tax-Exempt Reserves, August 31, 2010

**  To the extent that the Liquidity Class shares of the Fund make payments pursuant to the Distribution Plan and/or the Servicing Plan, the combined total of such payments may not exceed, on an annual basis, 0.25% of the average daily net assets of the Fund's Liquidity Class shares.

Shareholder Administration Fees

The Trust has adopted shareholder administration plans ("Administration Plans") for the Trust Class and Institutional Class shares of the Fund. Under the Administration Plans, the Fund may pay servicing agents that have entered into a shareholder administration agreement with the Trust for certain shareholder support services that are provided to holders of the classes' shares.

A substantial portion of the expenses incurred pursuant to these plans is paid to affiliates of BOA and the Distributor. The annual rates in effect and plan limits, as a percentage of average daily net assets are as follows:

Administration Plans:   Current Rate   Plan Limit  
Trust Class shares     0.10 %     0.10 %  
Institutional Class shares     0.04 %     0.04 %  

 

Fee Waivers and Expense Reimbursements

BofA and/or some of the Fund's other service providers have contractually agreed to bear a portion of the Fund's expenses through December 31, 2010, so that the Fund's ordinary operating expenses (excluding any distribution, shareholder servicing and/or shareholder administration fees, interest, taxes and extraordinary expenses, but including custodian charges relating to overdrafts, if any) after giving effect to any balance credits from the Fund's custodian, do not exceed the annual rate of 0.20% of the Fund's average daily net assets. There is no guarantee that this expense limitation will continue after December 31, 2010.

The Distributor has voluntarily agreed to reimburse certain class-specific Fund expenses (consisting of shareholder servicing, distribution and shareholder administration fees, as applicable) to the extent necessary in order to maintain a minimum annualized net yield of 0.00% for all classes of the Fund. In addition, BofA has voluntarily agreed to reimburse certain Fund expenses (consisting of advisory and administration fees) to the extent necessary to maintain such yield in the event the Distributor's reimbursement of class-specific Fund expenses is fully utilized. These reimbursements are voluntary and may be modified or discontinued by the Distributor or BofA at any time. BofA is entitled to recover from the Fund any fees waived and/or expenses reimbursed for a three year period following the date of such fee waiver and/or reimbursement if such recovery does not cause the Fund's total operating expenses to exceed the expense limitation in effect at the time of recovery.

Under the Distribution Plan for the Liquidity Class shares, the Trust is currently not reimbursing the Distributor for distribution expenses for Liquidity Class shares. Unreimbursed expenses incurred by the Distributor in a given year may not be recovered by the Distributor in subsequent years.

At August 31, 2010, the amounts potentially recoverable by BofA pursuant to this arrangement are as follows:

Amount of potential recovery expiring August 31,   Total
potential
  Amount recovered
during the year
 
2013   2012   2011   recovery   ended 8/31/10  
$ 1,486,821     $ 2,336,606     $ 2,513,573     $ 6,337,000     $    

 

Fees Paid to Officers and Trustees

All officers of the Fund are employees of BofA or its affiliates and, with the exception of the Fund's Chief Compliance Officer, receive no compensation from the Fund. The Board of Trustees has appointed a Chief Compliance Officer to the Fund in accordance with federal securities regulations. The Fund, along with other affiliated funds, pays its pro-rata share of the expenses associated with the Chief Compliance Officer. The Fund's expenses for the Chief Compliance Officer will not exceed $15,000 per year.

Trustees are compensated for their services to the Fund, as set forth on the Statement of Operations.


24



BofA California Tax-Exempt Reserves, August 31, 2010

The Trust's eligible Trustees may participate in a nonqualified deferred compensation plan which may be terminated at any time. Any payments to plan participants are paid solely out of the Fund's assets. Income earned on the plan participant's deferral account is based on the rate of return of the eligible mutual funds selected by the participant or, if no funds are selected, on the rate of return of BofA Treasury Reserves, another portfolio of the Trust. The expense for the deferred compensation plan, which includes trustees' fees deferred during the current period as well as any gains or losses on the trustees' deferred compensation balances as a result of market fluctuations, is included in "Trustees' fees" on the Statement of Operations. The liability for the deferred compensation plan is included in "Trustees' fees" on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

Note 5. Custody Credits

The Fund has an agreement with its custodian bank under which custody fees may be reduced by balance credits. These credits are recorded as part of expense reductions on the Statement of Operations. The Fund could have invested a portion of the assets utilized in connection with the expense offset arrangement in an income-producing asset if it had not entered into such an agreement.

For the year ended August 31, 2010, these custody credits reduced total expenses by $427 for the Fund.

Note 6. Line of Credit

The Fund and other affiliated funds participate in a $200,000,000 uncommitted, unsecured line of credit provided by State Street. Borrowings are available for short-term liquidity or temporary or emergency purposes.

Effective December 16, 2009, interest is charged to each participating fund based on the fund's borrowings at a rate per annum equal to the greater of the Federal Funds Rate plus 1.25% or the overnight LIBOR Rate plus 1.25%. An annual administration fee of $10,000 is also accrued and apportioned to each fund participating in the line of credit based on the average net assets of the participating funds.

Prior to December 16, 2009, interest was charged to each participating fund based on the fund's borrowings at a rate per annum equal to the greater of the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.75% or the overnight LIBOR Rate plus 0.75%. A one-time structuring fee of $10,000 was also accrued and apportioned to each fund participating in the line of credit based on the average net assets of the participating funds.

For the year ended August 31, 2010, the Fund did not borrow under these arrangements.

Note 7. Shares of Beneficial Interest

As of August 31, 2010, 95.6% of the Fund's shares outstanding were beneficially owned by two participant accounts over which BOA and/or any of its affiliates had either sole or joint investment discretion.

As of August 31, 2010, no other shareholders owned more than 5% of the outstanding shares of the Fund.

Subscription and redemption activity of this account may have a significant effect on the operations of the Fund.

Note 8. Significant Risks and Contingencies

Geographic Concentration Risk

The Fund had greater than 5% of its total net assets at August 31, 2010, invested in debt obligations issued by California and its political subdivisions, agencies and public authorities. The Fund is more susceptible to economic and political factors adversely affecting issuers of this state's municipal securities than are municipal bond funds that are not concentrated to the same extent in these issuers.

United States Department of the Treasury Temporary Guarantee Program for Money Market Funds

On September 28, 2008, the United States Department of the Treasury (the "Treasury") opened a temporary guarantee program (the "Program") for money market mutual funds registered in the United States under the 1940 Act. On March 31, 2009, the Treasury announced the second extension of the Program from April 30, 2009 through September 18, 2009. The Program expired on September 18, 2009 and will not be further extended by the Treasury. Accordingly, effective September 18, 2009, the Program no longer provides any guarantee against any loss to shareholders with respect to the Fund's shares.

Under the Program, and subject to certain conditions and limitations, share amounts held by investors of the Fund as of the close of business on September 19, 2008 were guaranteed against loss in the event that the market-based net asset value


25



BofA California Tax-Exempt Reserves, August 31, 2010

per share was less than $0.995 (i.e., does not round to $1.00, a "guarantee event") and the Fund subsequently liquidated. The Program only covered the amount a shareholder held in the Fund as of the close of business on September 19, 2008, or the amount a shareholder held if and when a guarantee event occurred, whichever was less.

The Fund paid $2,050,513 to the Treasury to participate in the Program. This fee was expensed over the period from September 19, 2008 to September 18, 2009 and is an extraordinary item for calculating fee waivers and expense reimbursement discussed in Note 4.

Legal Proceedings

BofA Advisors, LLC and BofA Distributors, Inc. (collectively, the BofA Group) are subject to a settlement agreement with the New York Attorney General (NYAG) (the NYAG Settlement) and a settlement order with the SEC (the SEC Order) on matters relating to mutual fund trading, each dated February 9, 2005. Under the terms of the SEC Order, the BofA Group (or predecessor or affiliated entities) agreed, among other things, to: pay disgorgement and civil money penalties collectively totaling $375 million; cease and desist from violations of the antifraud provisions and certain other provisions of the federal securities laws; maintain certain compliance and ethics oversight structures; and retain an independent consultant to review the BofA Group's applicable supervisory, compliance, control and other policies and procedures. The NYAG Settlement, among other things, requires BofA Advisors, LLC and its affiliates to make certain disclosures to investors relating to expenses. In connection with the BofA Group providing services to the BofA Funds, the BofA Funds have voluntarily undertaken to implement certain governance measures designed to maintain the independence of their boards of trustees and certain special consulting and compliance measures.

Civil Litigation

In connection with the events that resulted in the NYAG Settlement and SEC Order, various parties filed suits against Bank of America Corporation and certain of its affiliates, including Banc of America Capital Management, LLC (BACAP, now known as BofA Advisors, LLC) and BACAP Distributors, LLC (now known as BofA Distributors, Inc.) (collectively BAC), Nations Funds Trust and its Board of Trustees. On February 20, 2004, the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation transferred these cases and cases against other mutual fund companies based on similar allegations to the United States District Court in Maryland for consolidated or coordinated pretrial proceedings (the MDL). Subsequently, additional related cases were transferred to the MDL. On September 29, 2004, the plaintiffs in the MDL filed amended and consolidated complaints. One of these amended complaints is a putative class action that includes claims under the federal securities laws and state common law, and that names Nations Funds Trust, its Trustees, BAC and others as defendants. Another of the amended complaints is a derivative action purportedly on behalf of the Nations Funds Trust against BAC and others that asserts claims under federal securities laws and state common law. Nations Funds Trust is a nominal defendant in this action. On February 25, 2005, BAC and other defendants filed motions to dismiss the claims in the pending cases. On December 15, 2005, BAC and others entered into a Stipulation of Settlement of the direct and derivative claims brought on behalf of the Nations Funds shareholders. That stipulation was amended on February 4, 2010. The settlement has been preliminarily approved by the court. A final approval hearing on the settlement is scheduled for October 21 and 22, 2010. If the settlement is approved, BAC would pay settlement administration costs and fees to plaintiffs' counsel as approved by the court.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Trustees of BofA Funds Series Trust and Shareholders of BofA California Tax-Exempt Reserves (formerly Columbia California Tax-Exempt Reserves, a series of Columbia Funds Series Trust)

In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the investment portfolio, and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of BofA California Tax-Exempt Reserves (a series of BofA Funds Series Trust) (formerly Columbia California Tax-Exempt Reserves, a series of Columbia Funds Series Trust) (the "Fund") at August 31, 2010, and the results of its operations, the changes in its net assets and the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as "financial statements") are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements 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 are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at August 31, 2010 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

President's Message

To Our Valued Shareholders:

Over the past year, the short-term debt markets continued their recovery from the worst effects of the global financial crisis, but even with that healing, the market environment was hardly hospitable for money market fund investors. The sovereign debt crisis in Europe, anemic economic growth globally and record low interest rates combined to present investors with some very difficult challenges.

At BofA Global Capital Management, we responded to those challenges by maintaining our focus on what is important to investors in the BofA Funds—principal preservation, a high degree of liquidity and achieving the best yields possible consistent with an emphasis on principal preservation and liquidity. To achieve those objectives, we employ sophisticated risk management processes and a conservative approach to security selection that we believe will better insulate our funds from market turbulence. Recognizing the importance of human capital to effective risk management, we have also strengthened our investment team by adding seasoned credit analysts and other talented professionals, whose insights we believe will better position us to manage portfolio risk.

The investments we made in our business—and by extension, in our clients—was an important component of our transition from the liquidity asset management arm of Columbia Management to BofA Global Capital Management. As you may know, Bank of America sold Columbia Management's equity and fixed income asset management businesses to Ameriprise Financial earlier this year. Bank of America elected to retain Columbia Management's liquidity asset management platform in part because of the importance of high-quality liquidity strategies to the bank's clients. We are pleased to report that we completed the transition of Columbia Management's liquidity asset management business to BofA Global Capital Management without disrupting Fund shareholders.

Unfortunately "disruption" was the operative word for the short-term debt markets during the past year. The deteriorating fiscal condition of many European governments raised concerns about the prospect of sovereign debt defaults and their impact on European financial institutions. The crisis, which some observers viewed as a threat to the viability of the European Union, had little direct impact on our funds' performance, as our conservative investment philosophy helped us limit our exposure to European bank debt. In the U.S., the Securities and Exchange Commission imposed new restrictions on the amount of investment risk the managers of money market funds can assume in order to make funds more stable during market crises. BofA Global Capital Management's money market funds were little affected by the SEC's mandates because we had adopted many of the requirements well in advance of their implementation dates.

Looking ahead, we can expect the challenging market environment to continue for the immediate future. The European debt crisis, while somewhat contained, has not been resolved completely and probably will not be until European governments adopt difficult structural reforms. In the United States, many states and municipalities face tough fiscal problems of their own due to declining tax revenues. Finally, record low interest rates continue to place heavy downward pressure on yields. In this environment, the best course of action for liquidity investors, in our view, is to pursue an investment program that emphasizes principal protection but also positions investors to benefit when rates begin to rise. We believe our focus on liquidity-oriented investment strategies, our experienced investment professionals and the resources available to us as part of one of the world's largest financial institutions make BofA Global Capital Management an ideal partner to help you navigate today's challenging markets. We look forward in the months ahead to demonstrating the value we can offer you, and we are grateful for the opportunity to have served you over the past year.

Sincerely,

Michael Pelzar
President, BofA Global Capital Management Group, LLC




Understanding Your ExpensesBofA Cash Reserves

As a fund shareholder, you incur ongoing costs, which generally include investment advisory fees, distribution and service (Rule 12b-1) fees and other fund expenses. The information on this page is intended to help you understand the ongoing costs of investing in the fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

Analyzing your fund's expenses by share class

To illustrate these ongoing costs, we have provided an example and calculated the expenses paid by investors in each share class during the period. The information in the following table is based on an initial investment of $1,000, which is invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period. Expense information is calculated two ways and each method provides you with different information. The amount listed in the "Actual" column is calculated using the fund's actual operating expense ratios and actual total return for the period. The amount listed in the "Hypothetical" column for each share class also uses the fund's actual operating expense ratios but assumes that the return each year is 5% before expenses. You should not use the hypothetical account values and expenses to estimate either your actual account balance at the end of the period or the expenses you paid during the period.

Compare with other funds

Since all mutual funds are required to include the same hypothetical calculations about expenses in shareholder reports, you can use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the fund with other funds. To do so, compare the 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of other funds. As you compare hypothetical examples of other funds, it is important to note that hypothetical examples are meant to highlight the ongoing costs of investing in a fund.

Estimating your actual expenses

To estimate the expenses that you paid over the period, first you will need your account balance at the end of the period:

g  For shareholders who receive their account statements from Boston Financial Data Services, Inc., your account balance is available online at www.bofacapital.com or by calling Shareholder Services at 888.331.0904

g  For shareholders who receive their account statements from their financial intermediary, contact your financial intermediary to obtain your account balance.

1.  Divide your ending account balance by $1,000. For example, if an account balance was $8,600 at the end of the period, the result would be 8.6.

2.  In the section of the table below titled "Expenses paid during the period," locate the amount for your share class. You will find this number in the column labeled "Actual." Multiply this number by the result from step 1. Your answer is an estimate of the expenses you paid on your account during the period.

If the value of your account falls below the minimum initial investment requirement applicable to you, your account generally will be subject to an annual fee of up to $20. This fee is not included in the accompanying table. If you are subject to the fee, keep it in mind when you are estimating the ongoing expenses of investing in the fund and when comparing the expenses of this fund with other funds.

Expenses paid during the period are equal to the annualized expense ratio for the share class, multiplied by the average account value over the period, then multiplied by the number of days in the fund's most recent fiscal half-year and divided by 365.

Had the investment advisor and/or any of its affiliates not waived fees or reimbursed a portion of expenses, account value at the end of the period would have been reduced.

It is important to note that the expense amounts shown in the table are meant to highlight only ongoing costs of investing in the fund.

Notes to Financial StatementsBofA Cash Reserves
August 31, 2010

Note 1. Organization

BofA Cash Reserves (the "Fund"), formerly Columbia Cash Reserves, a series of BofA Funds Series Trust (the "Trust"), is a diversified fund. The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end management investment company organized as a Delaware statutory trust.

As of the close of business on December 31, 2009, the Fund acquired all of the assets and liabilities of Columbia Cash Reserves (the "Predecessor Fund"), a series of Columbia Funds Series Trust, pursuant to a reorganization. The reorganization qualified as a tax-free exchange for federal income tax purposes.

As part of the reorganization, each of the Predecessor Fund's share classes were reorganized into the corresponding share class of the Fund. Prior to the reorganization, the financial information of the Fund includes the financial information of the Predecessor Fund. The Predecessor Fund was organized as a separate series of Columbia Funds Series Trust, a Delaware statutory trust, and was registered under the 1940 Act as an open-end management investment company. The Fund is continuing the business, including carrying forward the financial and performance history, of the Predecessor Fund.

Investment Objective

The Fund seeks current income, consistent with capital preservation and maintenance of a high degree of liquidity.

Fund Shares

The Trust may issue an unlimited number of shares, and the Fund offers twelve classes of shares: Capital Class, Trust Class, Liquidity Class, Adviser Class, Investor Class, Daily Class, Class A, Class B, Class C, Class Z, Institutional Class and Marsico shares. Each class of shares is offered continuously at net asset value. The Fund no longer accepts investments from new or existing investors in the Fund's Class B shares, except in connection with the reinvestment of any dividend and/or capital gain distributions in Class B shares of the Fund.

Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Management has evaluated the events and transactions that have occurred through the date the financial statements were issued and noted no items requiring adjustment of the financial statements or additional disclosures.

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements.

Security Valuation

Securities in the Fund are valued utilizing the amortized cost valuation method permitted in accordance with Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act provided certain conditions are met, including that the Fund's Board of Trustees continues to believe that the amortized cost valuation method fairly reflects the market-based net asset value per share of the Fund. This method involves valuing a portfolio security initially at its cost and thereafter assuming a constant accretion or amortization to maturity of any discount or premium, respectively. The Fund's Board of Trustees has established procedures intended to stabilize the Fund's net asset value for purposes of sales and redemptions at $1.00 per share. These procedures include determinations, at such intervals as the Board of Trustees deems appropriate and reasonable in light of current market conditions, of the extent, if any, to which the Fund's market based net asset value deviates from $1.00 per share. In the event such deviation exceeds 1/2 of 1%, the Board of Trustees will promptly consider what action, if any, should be initiated.

GAAP establishes a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value giving the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical securities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements) when


29



BofA Cash Reserves, August 31, 2010

market prices are not readily available or reliable. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:

•  Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical securities

•  Level 2 – the Fund's assets assigned to the Level 2 input category represent certain short-term obligations which are valued using amortized cost, an income approach which converts future cash flows to a present value based upon the discount or premium at purchase.

•  Level 3 – prices determined using significant unobservable inputs. In situations where quoted prices or observable inputs are unavailable or less reliable, unobservable inputs may be used. Unobservable inputs may include management's own assumptions about the factors market participants would use in pricing an investment.

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

On January 21, 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued an Accounting Standards Update (the "Amendment"), Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820): Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements, which provides guidance on how investment assets and liabilities are to be valued and disclosed. Specifically, the Amendment requires reporting entities to disclose the inputs and valuation techniques used to measure fair value for both recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements for Level 2 and Level 3 positions. The Amendment also requires that transfers between all levels (including Level 1 and Level 2) be disclosed on a gross basis (i.e., transfers out must be disclosed separately from transfers in), and requires disclosure of the reason(s) for the transfer. Additionally, purchases, sales, issuances and settlements must be disclosed on a gross basis in the Level 3 rollforward. The effective date of the Amendment is for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the requirement to provide the Level 3 activity for purchases, sales, issuances and settlements on a gross basis, which will be effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2010. At this time, management is evaluating the implications of the Amendment.

Security Transactions

Security transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Cost is determined and gains (losses) are based upon the specific identification method for both financial statement and federal income tax purposes.

Repurchase Agreements

The Fund may engage in repurchase agreement transactions with institutions that BofA Advisors, LLC ("BofA"), the Fund's investment advisor, has determined are creditworthy. The Fund, through its custodian, receives delivery of the underlying securities collateralizing a repurchase agreement. BofA is responsible for determining that the collateral is at least equal, at all times, to the value of the repurchase obligation including interest. A repurchase agreement transaction involves certain risks in the event of default or insolvency of the counterparty. These risks include possible delays in or restrictions on the Fund's ability to dispose of the underlying securities and a possible decline in the value of the underlying securities during the period while the Fund seeks to assert its rights.

Income Recognition

Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Premium and discount are amortized and accreted, respectively, on all debt securities, unless otherwise noted.

Expenses

General expenses of the Trust are allocated to the Fund and other series of the Trust based upon relative net assets or other expense allocation methodologies determined by the nature of the expense. Expenses directly attributable to the Fund are charged to the Fund.

Determination of Class Net Asset Value

All income, expenses (other than class-specific expenses, as shown on the Statement of Operations) and realized and unrealized gains (losses) are allocated to each class of the Fund on a daily basis for purposes of determining the net asset value of each class. Income and expenses are allocated to each class based on the settled shares method, while realized and unrealized gains (losses) are allocated based on the relative net assets of each class.


30



BofA Cash Reserves, August 31, 2010

Federal Income Tax Status

The Fund intends to qualify each year as a "regulated investment company" under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended, and will distribute substantially all of its taxable income, if any, for its tax year, and as such will not be subject to federal income taxes. In addition, the Fund intends to distribute in each calendar year substantially all of its net investment income, capital gains and certain other amounts, if any, such that the Fund should not be subject to federal excise tax. Therefore, no provision is made for federal income or excise taxes.

Distributions to Shareholders

Distributions from net investment income, if any, are declared daily and paid monthly. Net realized capital gains, if any, are distributed at least annually after the fiscal year in which the capital gains were earned or more frequently to seek to maintain a net asset value of $1.00 per share, unless offset by any available capital loss carryforward. Income distributions and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP.

Indemnification

In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnities. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown because this would involve future claims against the Fund. Also, under the Trust's organizational documents and by contract, the Trustees and officers of the Trust are indemnified against certain liabilities that may arise out of actions relating to their duties to the Trust. However, based on experience, Management expects the risk of loss due to these representations, warranties and indemnities to be minimal.

Note 3. Capital Support Agreement

Columbia Funds Series Trust, on behalf of the Predecessor Fund, now a series of BofA Funds Series Trust entered into a Capital Support Agreement (the "Agreement") with NB Funding Company LLC (the "Support Provider"), an affiliate of BofA. Bank of America Corporation ("BOA") guaranteed to the Fund the payment of any capital contribution that the Support Provider was obligated to make under the Agreement.

The Fund's objective in entering into the Agreement was to enable it to continue to offer and redeem its shares at $1.00 per share by permitting it to maintain its market-based net asset value ("NAV") per share at an amount no less than the specific level set forth in the Agreement (the "Minimum NAV Per Share"). The Agreement established the basis for the Support Provider to make a capital contribution to the Fund in order to prevent realized losses from the disposition of certain covered securities from causing the Fund's market-based NAV per share to fall below the Minimum NAV Per Share. For purposes of the Agreement, a "capital contribution" was a cash contribution by the Support Provider to the Fund for which the Support Provider did not receive any shares or other consideration from the Fund.

The Agreement required the Support Provider to make a capital contribution upon the Fund's disposition of a portfolio security that had been subject to an event as specified in paragraph (c)(6)(ii)(A) through (D) of Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act (a "Covered Security") at less than its amortized cost (a "Triggering Event"). The Agreement required the Support Provider to contribute cash in an amount necessary to prevent the Triggering Event from causing the Fund's market-based NAV per share to decline below the Minimum NAV Per Share, subject to the Maximum Contribution Amount.

The Fund treated the Agreement as an asset of the Fund in calculating its market-based NAV. The value of the Agreement increased or decreased on certain days the Fund calculated its market-based NAV per share as a result of changes in the market value of the Covered Securities, or other factors, prior to the actual payment of the capital contribution by the Support Provider to the Fund.

On October 5, 2009, an affiliate of BofA purchased the remaining Covered Securities owned by the Fund (see Note 10). In addition, on October 8, 2009, an affiliate of BofA made a capital contribution to the Fund of $21,755,102. As a result of these transactions, the Fund terminated the Agreement with the Support Provider effective October 8, 2009. The maximum value of the asset represented by the Agreement for the period from September 1, 2008 through October 8, 2009 was $599,700,000.

BofA Cash Reserves, August 31, 2010

Note 4. Federal Tax Information

The timing and character of income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. Reclassifications are made to the Fund's capital accounts for permanent tax differences to reflect income and gains available for distribution (or available capital loss carryforwards) under income tax regulations.

For the year ended August 31, 2010, permanent book and tax basis differences resulting primarily from differing treatments for expired capital loss carryforwards were identified and reclassified among the components of the Fund's net assets as follows:

Undistributed
Net Investment
Income
  Accumulated
Net Realized
Loss
  Paid-In Capital  
$ 4,870,017     $ 16,166,260     $ (21,036,277 )  

 

The tax character of distributions paid during the years ended August 31, 2010 and August 31, 2009 was as follows:

    August 31,  
Distributions paid from   2010   2009  
Ordinary Income*   $ 13,502,869     $ 412,310,704    
Long-Term Capital Gains              

 

*  For tax purposes short-term capital gain distributions, if any, are considered ordinary income distributions.

As of August 31, 2010, the components of distributable earnings on a tax basis were as follows:

Undistributed
Ordinary
Income
  Undistributed
Long-Term
Capital Gains
 
$ 5,401,452     $    

 

The following capital loss carryforwards, determined as of August 31, 2010, may be available to reduce taxable income arising from future net realized gains on investments, if any, to the extent permitted by the Internal Revenue Code:

Year of Expiration   Capital Loss

Capital loss carryforwards of $44,299,951 expired during the year for the Fund ended August 31, 2010.

Management is required to determine whether a tax position of the Fund is more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by the applicable taxing authority, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefit to be recognized by the Fund is measured as the largest amount of benefit that is greater than fifty percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Management is not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months. However, management's conclusions may be subject to review and adjustment at a later date based on factors including, but not limited to, new tax laws, regulations, and administrative interpretations (including relevant court decisions). The Fund's federal tax returns for the prior three fiscal years remain subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service.

Investment Advisory Fee

BofA, an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of BOA, provides investment advisory services to the Fund. BofA receives a monthly investment advisory fee, calculated based on the combined average net assets of the Fund and certain other money market funds advised by BofA, at the following annual rates:

Average Daily Net Assets   Annual Fee Rates  
First $175 billion     0.15 %  
$175 billion to $225 billion     0.13 %  
Over $225 billion     0.08 %  

 

BofA has contractually agreed to limit the combined investment advisory fee and administration fee for the Fund to an annual rate of 0.19% of the Fund's average net assets through December 31, 2010. There is no guarantee that this expense limitation will continue after December 31, 2010.

For the year ended August 31, 2010, the Fund's annualized effective advisory fee rate, net of fee waivers, was 0.15% of the Fund's average daily net assets.

Administration Fee

BofA provides administrative and other services to the Fund for a monthly administration fee, calculated based on the combined average net assets of the Fund and certain other money market funds advised by BofA, at the following annual rates, less the fees payable by the Fund as described under the Pricing and Bookkeeping Fees note below:

Average Daily Net Assets   Annual Fee Rates  
First $125 billion     0.10 %  
$125 billion to $175 billion     0.05 %  
Over $175 billion     0.02 %  

 

Additionally, effective May 1, 2010, BofA has retained State Street Bank and Trust Company ("State Street") to provide certain sub-administration services under a Sub-Administration Agreement. BofA pays State Street a fee for all services received under the Sub-Administration Agreement.

Pricing and Bookkeeping Fees

Prior to May 1, 2010, the Trust had a Financial Reporting Services Agreement (the "Financial Reporting Services Agreement") with State Street Bank and BofA pursuant to which State Street provided financial reporting services to the Fund. Prior to May 1, 2010, the Trust had an Accounting Services Agreement (collectively with the Financial Reporting Services Agreement, the " Former State Street Agreements") with State Street and BofA pursuant to which State Street provided accounting services to the Fund. Effective May 1, 2010, the Trust entered into an amended and restated Financial Reporting Services Agreement and an amended and restated Accounting Services Agreement with State Street and BofA (the "Current State Street Agreements") pursuant to which State Street provides the Fund with services similar to those provided under the Former State Street Agreements. Under the Current State Street Agreements, the Fund pays State Street an annual fee of $38,000 paid monthly plus an additional monthly fee based on an annualized percentage rate of average daily net assets of the Fund for the month. The aggregate fee will not exceed $140,000 per year (exclusive of out-of-pocket expenses and charges). The Fund also reimburses State Street for certain out-of-pocket expenses and charges.

Prior to May 1, 2010, the Trust had a Pricing and Bookkeeping Oversight and Services Agreement (the "Services Agreement") with BofA. Under the Services Agreement, BofA provided services related to Fund expenses and the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, and provided oversight of the accounting and financial reporting services provided by State Street. Under the Services Agreement, the Fund reimbursed BofA for out-of-pocket expenses and charges, including fees payable to third parties, such as for pricing the Fund's portfolio securities, incurred by BofA in the performance of services under the Services Agreement. The Services Agreement was terminated upon the Closing, and the services that were provided thereunder are covered under an amended and restated administration agreement with BofA.

Transfer Agent Fee

Prior to May 1, 2010, Columbia Management Services, Inc. (the "Former Transfer Agent"), an affiliate of BofA Global Capital Management Group, LLC ("BofA Global Capital Management") and an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of BOA, provided shareholder services to the Fund and had


33



BofA Cash Reserves, August 31, 2010

contracted with Boston Financial Data Services, Inc. ("BFDS" or the "Current Transfer Agent") to serve as sub-transfer agent. Effective January 1, 2010, the Former Transfer Agent was entitled to receive a fee for its services, paid monthly, at the annual rate of $22.36 per account plus reimbursement of certain sub-transfer agent fees paid by the Former Transfer Agent (exclusive of BFDS fees), calculated based on assets held in omnibus accounts and intended to recover the cost of payments to other parties (including affiliates of BOA) for services to those accounts. Prior to January 1, 2010, the annual rate was $17.34 per account. The Former Transfer Agent paid the fees of BFDS for services as sub-transfer agent and was not entitled to reimbursement for such fees from the Fund.

The Former Transfer Agent was also entitled to retain, as additional compensation for its services, fees for wire, telephone and redemption orders, Individual Retirement Account ("IRA") trustee agent fees and account transcript fees due to the Former Transfer Agent from shareholders of the Fund and credits (net of bank charges) earned with respect to balances in accounts the Former Transfer Agent maintained in connection with its services to the Fund. The Former Transfer Agent also received reimbursement for certain out-of-pocket expenses.

Effective May 1, 2010, the Current Transfer Agent acts as transfer agent for the Fund's shares. Under a transfer agency agreement with the Trust, the Current Transfer Agent provides transfer agency, dividend disbursing agency and shareholder servicing agency services to the Fund.

An annual minimum account balance fee of up to $20 may apply to certain accounts with a value below the Fund's minimum investment requirements to reduce the impact of small accounts on transfer agent fees. These minimum account balance fees are recorded as part of expense reductions on the Statement of Operations. For the year ended August 31, 2010, no minimum account balance fees were charged by the Fund.

Distribution and Service Fees

BofA Distributors, Inc. (the "Distributor"),an affiliate of BOA, is the principal underwriter of the Fund's shares.

The Trust has adopted distribution plans ("Distribution Plans") for the Liquidity Class, Investor Class, Daily Class, Class A, Class B, and Class C shares of the Fund. The Distribution Plans, adopted pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act, permit the Fund to compensate or reimburse the Distributor and/or selling agents for activities or expenses primarily intended to result in the sale of the classes' shares.

The Trust also has adopted shareholder servicing plans ("Servicing Plans") for the Liquidity Class, Adviser Class, Investor Class, Daily Class, Class A, Class B, Class C and Marsico shares of the Fund. The Servicing Plans permit the Fund to compensate or reimburse servicing agents for the shareholder services they have provided.

A substantial portion of the expenses incurred pursuant to these plans is paid to affiliates of BOA and the Distributor.

The annual rates in effect and plan limits, as a percentage of average daily net assets are as follows:

*  The Distributor has contractually agreed to waive Distribution Plan fees and/or Servicing Plan fees through December 31, 2010 as a percentage of the Fund's Liquidity Class shares average daily net assets at an annual rate of 0.10%, so that combined fees will not exceed 0.15%. There is no guarantee that this waiver will continue after December 31, 2010. The amount of the waiver is included in the fees waived by shareholder service provider on the Statement of Operations.

**  To the extent that the Liquidity Class shares of the Fund make payments pursuant to the Distribution Plan and/or the Servicing Plan, the combined total of such payments may not exceed, on an annual basis, 0.25% of the average daily net assets of the Fund's Liquidity Class shares.

BofA Cash Reserves, August 31, 2010

Shareholder Administration Fees

The Trust has adopted shareholder administration plans ("Administration Plans") for the Trust Class, Class A, Class B, Class C, Marsico and Institutional Class shares of the Fund. Under the Administration Plans, the Fund may pay servicing agents that have entered into a shareholder administration agreement with the Trust for certain shareholder support services that are provided to holders of the classes' shares. A substantial portion of the expenses incurred pursuant to these plans is paid to affiliates of BOA and the Distributor. The annual rates in effect and plan limits, as a percentage of average daily net assets are as follows:

Administration Plans:   Current

Fee Waivers and Expense Reimbursements

BofA and/or some of the Fund's other service providers have contractually agreed to bear a portion of the Fund's expenses through December 31, 2010, so that the Fund's ordinary operating expenses (excluding any distribution, shareholder servicing and/or shareholder administration fees, interest, taxes and extraordinary expenses, but including custodian charges relating to overdrafts, if any) after giving effect to any balance credits from the Fund's custodian, do not exceed the annual rate of 0.20% of the Fund's average daily net assets. There is no guarantee that this expense limitation will continue after December 31, 2010.

The Distributor has voluntarily agreed to reimburse certain class-specific Fund expenses (consisting of shareholder servicing, distribution and shareholder administration fees, as applicable) to the extent necessary in order to maintain a minimum annualized net yield of 0.00% for all classes of the Fund. In addition, BofA has voluntarily agreed to reimburse certain Fund expenses (consisting of advisory and administration fees) to the extent necessary to maintain such yield in the event the Distributor's reimbursement of class specific Fund expenses is fully utilized. These reimbursements are voluntary and may be modified or discontinued by the Distributor or BofA at any time.

BofA is entitled to recover from the Fund any fees waived and/or expenses reimbursed for a three year period following the date of such fee waiver and/or reimbursement if such recovery does not cause the Fund's total operating expenses to exceed the expense limitation in effect at the time of recovery. Under the Distribution Plan for the Liquidity Class shares, the Trust is currently not reimbursing the Distributor for distribution expenses for Liquidity Class shares. Unreimbursed expenses incurred by the Distributor in a given year may not be recovered by the Distributor in subsequent years.

At August 31, 2010, the amounts potentially recoverable by BofA pursuant to this arrangement are as follows:

Amount of potential recovery expiring August 31,   Total
potential
  Amount recovered

2013   2012   2011   recovery   ended 8/31/10

BofA Cash Reserves, August 31, 2010

Fees Paid to Officers and Trustees

All officers of the Fund are employees of BofA or its affiliates and, with the exception of the Fund's Chief Compliance Officer, receive no compensation from the Fund. The Board of Trustees has appointed a Chief Compliance Officer to the Fund in accordance with federal securities regulations. The Fund, along with other affiliated funds, pays its pro-rata share of the expenses associated with the Chief Compliance Officer. The Fund's expenses for the Chief Compliance Officer will not exceed $15,000 per year.

Trustees are compensated for their services to the Fund, as set forth on the Statement of Operations.

The Trust's eligible Trustees may participate in a nonqualified deferred compensation plan which may be terminated at any time. Any payments to plan participants are paid solely out of the Fund's assets. Income earned on the plan participant's deferral account is based on the rate of return of the eligible mutual funds selected by the participant or, if no funds are selected, on the rate of return of BofA Treasury Reserves, another portfolio of the Trust. The expense for the deferred compensation plan, which includes trustees' fees deferred during the current period as well as any gains or losses on the trustees' deferred compensation balances as a result of market fluctuations, is included in "Trustees' fees" on the Statement of Operations. The liability for the deferred compensation plan is included in "Trustees' fees" on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

As a result of a fund merger, the Fund assumed the liabilities of the deferred compensation plan of the acquired fund, which are included in "Trustees' deferred compensation plan" on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Any payments to plan participants are paid solely out of the Fund's assets.

Note 6. Custody Credits

The Fund has an agreement with its custodian bank under which custody fees may be reduced by balance credits. These credits are recorded as part of expense reductions on the Statement of Operations. The Fund could have invested a portion of the assets utilized in connection with the expense offset arrangement in an income-producing asset if it had not entered into such an agreement.

For the year ended August 31, 2010, these custody credits reduced total expenses by $4,681 for the Fund.

Note 7. Line of Credit

The Fund and other affiliated funds participate in a $200,000,000 uncommitted, unsecured line of credit provided by State Street. Borrowings are available for short-term liquidity or temporary or emergency purposes.

Effective December 16, 2009, interest is charged to each participating fund based on the fund's borrowings at a rate per annum equal to the greater of the Federal Funds Rate plus 1.25% or the overnight LIBOR Rate plus 1.25%. An annual administration fee of $10,000 is also accrued and apportioned to each fund participating in the line of credit based on the average net assets of the participating funds.

Prior to December 16, 2009, interest was charged to each participating fund based on the fund's borrowings at a rate per annum equal to the greater of the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.75% or the overnight LIBOR Rate plus 0.75%. A one-time structuring fee of $10,000 was also accrued and apportioned to each fund participating in the line of credit based on the average net assets of the participating funds.

For the year ended August 31, 2010, the Fund did not borrow under these arrangements.

Note 8. Shares of Beneficial Interest

As of August 31, 2010, four shareholders held 90.2% of the Fund's shares outstanding, over which BOA and/or any of its affiliates did not have investment discretion.

As of August 31, 2010, no other shareholders owned more than 5% of the outstanding shares of the Fund.

Subscription and redemption activity of these accounts may have a significant effect on the operations of the Fund.

Note 9. Significant Risks and Contingencies

Securities Risk

The Fund is subject to interest rate and credit risk. The value of debt securities may decline as interest rates increase. The Fund could lose money if the issuer of a fixed income security is unable to pay interest or repay principal when it is due. The Fund is subject to mortgage-related risk. The value of mortgage-backed securities can fall if the owners of the underlying mortgages default or pay off their mortgages sooner than expected, which could happen when interest rates fall, or pay off their mortgages later than expected, which could happen when interest rates rise.


36



BofA Cash Reserves, August 31, 2010

The Fund is subject to asset-backed securities risk. Payment of interest and repayment of principal may be impacted by the cash flows generated by the assets backing these securities. The value of the Fund's asset-backed securities may also be affected by changes in interest rates, the availability of information concerning the interests in and structure of the pools of purchase contracts, financing leases or sales agreements that are represented by these securities, the creditworthiness of the underlying securities or the servicing agent for the pool, the originator of the loans or receivables, or the entities that provide any supporting letters of credit, surety bonds, or other credit enhancements

United States Department of the Treasury Temporary Guarantee Program for Money Market Funds

On September 28, 2008, the United States Department of the Treasury (the "Treasury") opened a temporary guarantee program (the "Program") for money market mutual funds registered in the United States under the 1940 Act. On March 31, 2009, the Treasury announced the second extension of the Program from April 30, 2009 through September 18, 2009. The Program expired on September 18, 2009 and will not be further extended by the Treasury. Accordingly, effective September 18, 2009, the Program no longer provides any guarantee against any loss to shareholders with respect to the Fund's shares.

Under the Program, and subject to certain conditions and limitations, share amounts held by investors of the Fund as of the close of business on September 19, 2008 were guaranteed against loss in the event that the market-based net asset value per share was less than $0.995 (i.e., does not round to $1.00, a "guarantee event") and the Fund subsequently liquidated. The Program only covered the amount a shareholder held in the Fund as of the close of business on September 19, 2008, or the amount a shareholder held if and when a guarantee event occurred, whichever was less.

The Fund paid $28,689,968 to the Treasury to participate in the Program. This fee was expensed over the period from September 19, 2008 to September 18, 2009 and is an extraordinary item for calculating fee waivers and expense reimbursement discussed in Note 5.

Legal Proceedings

BofA Advisors, LLC and BofA Distributors, Inc. (collectively, the BofA Group) are subject to a settlement agreement with the New York Attorney General (NYAG) (the NYAG Settlement) and a settlement order with the SEC (the SEC Order) on matters relating to mutual fund trading, each dated February 9, 2005. Under the terms of the SEC Order, the BofA Group (or predecessor or affiliated entities) agreed, among other things, to: pay disgorgement and civil money penalties collectively totaling $375 million; cease and desist from violations of the antifraud provisions and certain other provisions of the federal securities laws; maintain certain compliance and ethics oversight structures; and retain an independent consultant to review the BofA Group's applicable supervisory, compliance, control and other policies and procedures. The NYAG Settlement, among other things, requires BofA Advisors, LLC and its affiliates to make certain disclosures to investors relating to expenses. In connection with the BofA Group providing services to the BofA Funds, the BofA Funds have voluntarily undertaken to implement certain governance measures designed to maintain the independence of their boards of trustees and certain special consulting and compliance measures.

Civil Litigation

In connection with the events that resulted in the NYAG Settlement and SEC Order, various parties filed suits against Bank of America Corporation and certain of its affiliates, including Banc of America Capital Management, LLC (BACAP, now known as BofA Advisors, LLC) and BACAP Distributors, LLC (now known as BofA Distributors, Inc.) (collectively BAC), Nations Funds Trust and its Board of Trustees. On February 20, 2004, the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation transferred these cases and cases against other mutual fund companies based on similar allegations to the United States District Court in Maryland for consolidated or coordinated pretrial proceedings (the MDL). Subsequently, additional related cases were transferred to the MDL. On September 29, 2004, the plaintiffs in the MDL filed amended and consolidated complaints. One of these amended complaints is a putative class action that includes claims under the federal securities laws and state common law, and that names Nations Funds Trust, its Trustees, BAC and others as defendants. Another of the amended complaints is a derivative action purportedly on behalf of the Nations Funds Trust against BAC and others that asserts claims under federal securities laws and state common law. Nations Funds Trust is a nominal defendant in this action. On February 25, 2005, BAC and other defendants filed motions to dismiss the claims in the pending cases. On December 15, 2005, BAC and others entered into a Stipulation of Settlement of the direct and derivative claims brought on behalf of the Nations Funds shareholders. That stipulation was amended on


37



BofA Cash Reserves, August 31, 2010

February 4, 2010. The settlement has been preliminarily approved by the court. A final approval hearing on the settlement is scheduled for October 21 and 22, 2010. If the settlement is approved, BAC would pay settlement administration costs and fees to plaintiffs' counsel as approved by the court.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Trustees of BofA Funds Series Trust and Shareholders of BofA Cash Reserves (formerly Columbia Cash Reserves, a series of Columbia Funds Series Trust)

In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the investment portfolio, and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of BofA Cash Reserves (formerly Columbia Cash Reserves, a series of Columbia Funds Series Trust) (the "Fund") (a series of BofA Funds Series Trust) at August 31, 2010, and the results of its operations, the changes in its net assets and the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as "financial statements") are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements 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 are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at August 31, 2010 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

President's Message

To Our Valued Shareholders:

Over the past year, the short-term debt markets continued their recovery from the worst effects of the global financial crisis, but even with that healing, the market environment was hardly hospitable for money market fund investors. The sovereign debt crisis in Europe, anemic economic growth globally and record low interest rates combined to present investors with some very difficult challenges.

At BofA Global Capital Management, we responded to those challenges by maintaining our focus on what is important to investors in the BofA Funds—principal preservation, a high degree of liquidity and achieving the best yields possible consistent with an emphasis on principal preservation and liquidity. To achieve those objectives, we employ sophisticated risk management processes and a conservative approach to security selection that we believe will better insulate our funds from market turbulence. Recognizing the importance of human capital to effective risk management, we have also strengthened our investment team by adding seasoned credit analysts and other talented professionals, whose insights we believe will better position us to manage portfolio risk.

The investments we made in our business—and by extension, in our clients—was an important component of our transition from the liquidity asset management arm of Columbia Management to BofA Global Capital Management. As you may know, Bank of America sold Columbia Management's equity and fixed income asset management businesses to Ameriprise Financial earlier this year. Bank of America elected to retain Columbia Management's liquidity asset management platform in part because of the importance of high-quality liquidity strategies to the bank's clients. We are pleased to report that we completed the transition of Columbia Management's liquidity asset management business to BofA Global Capital Management without disrupting Fund shareholders.

Unfortunately "disruption" was the operative word for the short-term debt markets during the past year. The deteriorating fiscal condition of many European governments raised concerns about the prospect of sovereign debt defaults and their impact on European financial institutions. The crisis, which some observers viewed as a threat to the viability of the European Union, had little direct impact on our funds' performance, as our conservative investment philosophy helped us limit our exposure to European bank debt. In the U.S., the Securities and Exchange Commission imposed new restrictions on the amount of investment risk the managers of money market funds can assume in order to make funds more stable during market crises. BofA Global Capital Management's money market funds were little affected by the SEC's mandates because we had adopted many of the requirements well in advance of their implementation dates.

Looking ahead, we can expect the challenging market environment to continue for the immediate future. The European debt crisis, while somewhat contained, has not been resolved completely and probably will not be until European governments adopt difficult structural reforms. In the United States, many states and municipalities face tough fiscal problems of their own due to declining tax revenues. Finally, record low interest rates continue to place heavy downward pressure on yields. In this environment, the best course of action for liquidity investors, in our view, is to pursue an investment program that emphasizes principal protection but also positions investors to benefit when rates begin to rise. We believe our focus on liquidity-oriented investment strategies, our experienced investment professionals and the resources available to us as part of one of the world's largest financial institutions make BofA Global Capital Management an ideal partner to help you navigate today's challenging markets. We look forward in the months ahead to demonstrating the value we can offer you, and we are grateful for the opportunity to have served you over the past year.

Sincerely,

Michael Pelzar
President, BofA Global Capital Management Group, LLC




Understanding Your ExpensesBofA Government Plus Reserves

As a fund shareholder, you incur ongoing costs, which generally include investment advisory fees, distribution and service (Rule 12b-1) fees and other fund expenses. The information on this page is intended to help you understand the ongoing costs of investing in the fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

Analyzing your fund's expenses by share class

To illustrate these ongoing costs, we have provided an example and calculated the expenses paid by investors in each share class during the period. The information in the following table is based on an initial investment of $1,000, which is invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period. Expense information is calculated two ways and each method provides you with different information. The amount listed in the "Actual" column is calculated using the fund's actual operating expense ratios and actual total return for the period. The amount listed in the "Hypothetical" column for each share class also uses the fund's actual operating expense ratios but assumes that the return each year is 5% before expenses. You should not use the hypothetical account values and expenses to estimate either your actual account balance at the end of the period or the expenses you paid during the period.

Compare with other funds

Since all mutual funds are required to include the same hypothetical calculations about expenses in shareholder reports, you can use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the fund with other funds. To do so, compare the 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of other funds. As you compare hypothetical examples of other funds, it is important to note that hypothetical examples are meant to highlight the ongoing costs of investing in a fund.

Estimating your actual expenses

To estimate the expenses that you paid over the period, first you will need your account balance at the end of the period:

g  For shareholders who receive their account statements from Boston Financial Data Services, Inc., your account balance is available online at www.bofacapital.com or by calling Shareholder Services at 888.331.0904

g  For shareholders who receive their account statements from their financial intermediary, contact your financial intermediary to obtain your account balance.

1.  Divide your ending account balance by $1,000. For example, if an account balance was $8,600 at the end of the period, the result would be 8.6.

2.  In the section of the table below titled "Expenses paid during the period," locate the amount for your share class. You will find this number in the column labeled "Actual." Multiply this number by the    result from step 1. Your answer is an estimate of the expenses you paid on your account during the period.

If the value of your account falls below the minimum initial investment requirement applicable to you, your account generally will be subject to an annual fee of up to $20. This fee is not included in the accompanying table. If you are subject to the fee, keep it in mind when you are estimating the ongoing expenses of investing in the fund and when comparing the expenses of this fund with other funds.

Expenses paid during the period are equal to the annualized expense ratio for the share class, multiplied by the average account value over the period, then multiplied by the number of days in the fund's most recent fiscal half-year and divided by 365.

Had the investment advisor and/or any of its affiliates not waived fees or reimbursed a portion of expenses, account value at the end of the period would have been reduced.

It is important to note that the expense amounts shown in the table are meant to highlight only ongoing costs of investing in the fund.

Notes to Financial StatementsBofA Government Plus Reserves
August 31, 2010

Note 1. Organization

BofA Government Plus Reserves (the "Fund"), formerly Columbia Government Plus Reserves, a series of BofA Funds Series Trust (the "Trust"), is a diversified fund. The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end management investment company organized as a Delaware statutory trust.

As of the close of business on December 31, 2009, the Fund acquired all of the assets and liabilities of Columbia Government Plus Reserves (the "Predecessor Fund"), a series of Columbia Funds Series Trust, pursuant to a reorganization. The reorganization qualified as a tax-free exchange for federal income tax purposes.

As part of the reorganization, each of the Predecessor Fund's share classes were reorganized into the corresponding share class of the Fund. Prior to the reorganization, the financial information of the Fund includes the financial information of the Predecessor Fund. The Predecessor Fund was organized as a separate series of Columbia Funds Series Trust, a Delaware statutory trust, and was registered under the 1940 Act as an open-end management investment company. The Fund is continuing the business, including carrying forward the financial and performance history, of the Predecessor Fund.

Investment Objective

The Fund seeks current income, consistent with capital preservation and maintenance of a high degree of liquidity.

Fund Shares

The Trust may issue an unlimited number of shares and the Fund offers seven classes of shares: Capital Class, Trust Class, Liquidity Class, Adviser Class, Institutional Class, Retail A and G-Trust shares. Retail A and G-Trust shares are closed to new investors. Each class of shares is offered continuously at net asset value.

Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Management has evaluated the events and transactions that have occurred through the date the financial statements were issued and noted no items requiring adjustment of the financial statements or additional disclosures.

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements.

Security Valuation

Securities in the Fund are valued utilizing the amortized cost valuation method permitted in accordance with Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act provided certain conditions are met, including that the Fund's Board of Trustees continues to believe that the amortized cost valuation method fairly reflects the market-based net asset value per share of the Fund. This method involves valuing a portfolio security initially at its cost and thereafter assuming a constant accretion or amortization to maturity of any discount or premium, respectively. The Fund's Board of Trustees has established procedures intended to stabilize the Fund's net asset value for purposes of sales and redemptions at $1.00 per share. These procedures include determinations, at such intervals as the Board of Trustees deems appropriate and reasonable in light of current market conditions, of the extent, if any, to which the Fund's market based net asset value deviates from $1.00 per share. In the event such deviation exceeds 1/2 of 1%, the Board of Trustees will promptly consider what action, if any, should be initiated.

GAAP establishes a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value giving the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical securities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements) when market prices are not readily available or reliable. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:

•  Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical securities

•  Level 2 – the Fund's assets assigned to the Level 2 input category represent certain short-term obligations which are valued using amortized cost, an income approach which converts future cash flows to


16



BofA Government Plus Reserves, August 31, 2010

a present value based upon the discount or premium at purchase.

•  Level 3 – prices determined using significant unobservable inputs. In situations where quoted prices or observable inputs are unavailable or less reliable, unobservable inputs may be used. Unobservable inputs may include management's own assumptions about the factors market participants would use in pricing an investment.

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

On January 21, 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued an Accounting Standards Update (the "Amendment"), Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820): Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements, which provides guidance on how investment assets and liabilities are to be valued and disclosed. Specifically, the Amendment requires reporting entities to disclose the inputs and valuation techniques used to measure fair value for both recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements for Level 2 and Level 3 positions. The Amendment also requires that transfers between all levels (including Level 1 and Level 2) be disclosed on a gross basis (i.e., transfers out must be disclosed separately from transfers in), and requires disclosure of the reason(s) for the transfer. Additionally, purchases, sales, issuances and settlements must be disclosed on a gross basis in the Level 3 rollforward. The effective date of the Amendment is for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the requirement to provide the Level 3 activity for purchases, sales, issuances and settlements on a gross basis, which will be effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2010. At this time, management is evaluating the implications of the Amendment.

Security Transactions

Security transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Cost is determined and gains (losses) are based upon the specific identification method for both financial statement and federal income tax purposes.

Repurchase Agreements

The Fund may engage in repurchase agreement transactions with institutions that BofA Advisors, LLC ("BofA"), the Fund's investment advisor, has determined are creditworthy. The Fund, through its custodian, receives delivery of the underlying securities collateralizing a repurchase agreement. BofA is responsible for determining that the collateral is at least equal, at all times, to the value of the repurchase obligation including interest. A repurchase agreement transaction involves certain risks in the event of default or insolvency of the counterparty. These risks include possible delays in or restrictions on the Fund's ability to dispose of the underlying securities and a possible decline in the value of the underlying securities during the period while the Fund seeks to assert its rights.

Income Recognition

Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Premium and discount are amortized and accreted, respectively, on all debt securities, unless otherwise noted.

Expenses

General expenses of the Trust are allocated to the Fund and other series of the Trust based upon relative net assets or other expense allocation methodologies determined by the nature of the expense. Expenses directly attributable to the Fund are charged to the Fund.

Determination of Class Net Asset Value

All income, expenses (other than class-specific expenses, as shown on the Statement of Operations) and realized and unrealized gains (losses) are allocated to each class of the Fund on a daily basis for purposes of determining the net asset value of each class. Income and expenses are allocated to each class based on the settled shares method, while realized and unrealized gains (losses) are allocated based on the relative net assets of each class.

Federal Income Tax Status

The Fund intends to qualify each year as a "regulated investment company" under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended, and will distribute substantially all of its taxable income, if any, for its tax year, and as such will not be subject to federal income taxes. In addition, the Fund intends to distribute in each calendar year substantially all of its net investment income, capital gains and certain other amounts, if any, such that the Fund should not be


17



BofA Government Plus Reserves, August 31, 2010

subject to federal excise tax. Therefore, no provision is made for federal income or excise taxes.

Distributions to Shareholders

Distributions from net investment income, if any, are declared daily and paid monthly. Net realized capital gains, if any, are distributed at least annually after the fiscal year in which the capital gains were earned or more frequently to seek to maintain a net asset value of $1.00 per share, unless offset by any available capital loss carryforward. Income distributions and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP.

Indemnification

In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnities. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown because this would involve future claims against the Fund. Also, under the Trust's organizational documents and by contract, the Trustees and officers of the Trust are indemnified against certain liabilities that may arise out of actions relating to their duties to the Trust. However, based on experience, Management expects the risk of loss due to these representations, warranties and indemnities to be minimal.

Note 3. Federal Tax Information

The timing and character of income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. Reclassifications are made to the Fund's capital accounts for permanent tax differences to reflect income and gains available for distribution (or available capital loss carryforwards) under income tax regulations.

For the year ended August 31, 2010, permanent book and tax basis differences were identified and reclassified among the components of the Fund's net assets as follows:

Undistributed
Net Investment
Income
  Accumulated
Net Realized
Loss
  Paid-In Capital  
$     $ (1 )   $ 1    

 

The tax character of distributions paid during the years ended August 31, 2010 and August 31, 2009 was as follows:

    August 31,  
Distributions paid from:   2010   2009  
Ordinary Income*   $ 218,413     $ 14,170,418    

 

*  For tax purposes short-term capital gain distributions, if any, are considered ordinary income distributions.

As of August 31, 2010, the components of distributable earnings on a tax basis were as follows:

Undistributed
Ordinary
Income
  Undistributed
Long-Term
Capital Gains
 
$ 1,583     $    

 

The following capital loss carryforwards may be available to reduce taxable income arising from future net realized gains on investments, if any, to the extent permitted by the Internal Revenue Code:

Year of Expiration   Capital Loss
Carryforwards
 
2011   $ 9,005    
2012     204    
2013     1,068    
2014     89,176    
2015     1,719    
2016     38,980    
2018     4,902    
Total   $ 145,054    

 

Management is required to determine whether a tax position of the Fund is more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by the applicable taxing authority, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefit to be recognized by the Fund is measured as the largest amount of benefit that is greater than fifty percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Management is not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change


18



BofA Government Plus Reserves, August 31, 2010

in the next twelve months. However, management's conclusions may be subject to review and adjustment at a later date based on factors including, but not limited to, new tax laws, regulations, and administrative interpretations (including relevant court decisions). The Fund's federal tax returns for the prior three fiscal years remain subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service.

Note 4. Fees and Compensation Paid to Affiliates

Bank of America, N.A., an indirect parent company of Columbia Management Group, LLC ("Columbia") (now known as BofA Global Capital Management Group, LLC) entered into an agreement dated September 29, 2009, to sell a portion of the asset management business of Columbia to Ameriprise Financial, Inc. The transaction ("Transaction") included the sale of the part of the asset management business that advises long-term mutual funds, but did not include the sale of the part of the asset management business that advises the Fund. The transaction closed on May 1, 2010 (the "Closing"). Effective upon the Closing, the names of the Fund and its investment advisor, administrator and distributor changed as shown in the following table:

Investment Advisory Fee

BofA Advisors, LLC ("BofA"), an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of Bank of America Corporation ("BOA"), provides investment advisory services to the Fund. BofA receives a monthly investment advisory fee, calculated based on the combined average net assets of the Fund and certain other money market funds advised by BofA, at the following annual rates:

Average Daily Net Assets   Annual Fee Rates  
First $175 billion     0.18 %  
$175 billion to $225 billion     0.13 %  
Over $225 billion     0.08 %  

 

BofA has contractually agreed to limit the combined investment advisory fee and administration fee for the Fund to an annual rate of 0.16% of the Fund's average net assets through December 31, 2010. There is no guarantee that this expense limitation will continue after December 31, 2010.

For the year ended August 31, 2010, the Fund's annualized effective advisory fee rate, net of fee waivers, was 0.14% of the Fund's average daily net assets.

Administration Fee

BofA provides administrative and other services to the Fund for a monthly administration fee, calculated based on the combined average net assets of the Fund and certain other money market funds advised by BofA, at the following annual rates, less the fees payable by the Fund as described under the Pricing and Bookkeeping Fees note below:

Average Daily Net Assets   Annual Fee Rates  
First $125 billion     0.067 %  
Over $125 billion     0.020 %  

 

Additionally, effective May 1, 2010, BofA has retained State Street Bank and Trust Company ("State Street") to provide certain sub-administration services under a Sub-Administration Agreement. BofA pays State Street a fee for all services received under the Sub-Administration Agreement.

Pricing and Bookkeeping Fees

Prior to May 1, 2010, the Trust had a Financial Reporting Services Agreement (the "Financial Reporting Services Agreement") with State Street Bank and BofA pursuant to which State Street provided financial reporting services to the Fund. Prior to May 1, 2010, the Trust had an Accounting


19



BofA Government Plus Reserves, August 31, 2010

Services Agreement (collectively with the Financial Reporting Services Agreement, the " Former State Street Agreements") with State Street and BofA pursuant to which State Street provided accounting services to the Fund. Effective May 1, 2010, the Trust entered into an amended and restated Financial Reporting Services Agreement and an amended and restated Accounting Services Agreement with State Street and BofA (the "Current State Street Agreements") pursuant to which State Street provides the Fund with services similar to those provided under the Former State Street Agreements. Under the Current State Street Agreements, the Fund pays State Street an annual fee of $38,000 paid monthly plus an additional monthly fee based on an annualized percentage rate of average daily net assets of the Fund for the month. The aggregate fee will not exceed $140,000 per year (exclusive of out-of-pocket expenses and charges). The Fund also reimburses State Street for certain out-of-pocket expenses and charges.

Prior to May 1, 2010, the Trust had a Pricing and Bookkeeping Oversight and Services Agreement (the "Services Agreement") with BofA. Under the Services Agreement, BofA provided services related to Fund expenses and the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, and provided oversight of the accounting and financial reporting services provided by State Street. Under the Services Agreement, the Fund reimbursed BofA for out-of-pocket expenses and charges, including fees payable to third parties, such as for pricing the Fund's portfolio securities, incurred by BofA in the performance of services under the Services Agreement. The Services Agreement was terminated upon the Closing, and the services that were provided thereunder are covered under an amended and restated administration agreement with BofA.

Transfer Agent Fee

Prior to May 1, 2010, Columbia Management Services, Inc. (the "Former Transfer Agent"), an affiliate of BofA Global Capital Management Group, LLC ("BofA Global Capital Management") and an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of BOA, provided shareholder services to the Fund and had contracted with Boston Financial Data Services, Inc. ("BFDS" or the "Current Transfer Agent") to serve as sub-transfer agent. Effective January 1, 2010, the Former Transfer Agent was entitled to receive a fee for its services, paid monthly, at the annual rate of $22.36 per account plus reimbursement of certain sub-transfer agent fees paid by the Former Transfer Agent (exclusive of BFDS fees), calculated based on assets held in omnibus accounts and intended to recover the cost of payments to other parties (including affiliates of BOA) for services to those accounts. Prior to January 1, 2010, the annual rate was $17.34 per account. The Former Transfer Agent paid the fees of BFDS for services as sub-transfer agent and was not entitled to reimbursement for such fees from the Fund.

The Former Transfer Agent was also entitled to retain, as additional compensation for its services, fees for wire, telephone and redemption orders, Individual Retirement Account ("IRA") trustee agent fees and account transcript fees due to the Former Transfer Agent from shareholders of the Fund and credits (net of bank charges) earned with respect to balances in accounts the Former Transfer Agent maintained in connection with its services to the Fund. The Former Transfer Agent also received reimbursement for certain out-of-pocket expenses.

Effective May 1, 2010, the Current Transfer Agent acts as transfer agent for the Fund's shares. Under a transfer agency agreement with the Trust, the Current Transfer Agent provides transfer agency, dividend disbursing agency and shareholder servicing agency services to the Fund.

An annual minimum account balance fee of up to $20 may apply to certain accounts with a value below the Fund's minimum investment requirements to reduce the impact of small accounts on transfer agent fees. These minimum account balance fees are recorded as part of expense reductions on the Statement of Operations. For the year ended August 31, 2010, no minimum account balance fees were charged by the Fund.

Distribution and Service Fees

BofA Distributors, Inc. (the "Distributor"), an affiliate of BOA, is the principal underwriter of the Fund's shares.

The Trust has adopted a distribution plan ("Distribution Plan") for the Liquidity Class shares of the Fund. The Distribution Plan, adopted pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act, permit the Fund to compensate or reimburse the Distributor and/or selling agents for activities or expenses primarily intended to result in the sale of the classes' shares.


20



BofA Government Plus Reserves, August 31, 2010

The Trust also has adopted shareholder servicing plans ("Servicing Plans") for the Liquidity Class, Adviser Class and Retail A shares of the Fund. The Servicing Plans permit the Fund to compensate or reimburse servicing agents for the shareholder services they have provided.

A substantial portion of the expenses incurred pursuant to these plans is paid to affiliates of BOA and the Distributor. The annual rates in effect and plan limits, as a percentage of average daily net assets are as follows:

Distribution Plan:   Current Rate
(after fee
waivers)
  Plan Limit  
Liquidity Class shares     0.15 %*     0.25 %**  
Servicing Plans:  
Liquidity Class shares     0.15 %*     0.25 %**  
Adviser Class shares     0.25 %     0.25 %  
Retail A shares     0.10 %     0.10 %  

 

*  The Distributor has contractually agreed to waive Distribution Plan fees and/or Servicing Plan fees through December 31, 2010 at an annual rate of 0.10% of the Fund's Liquidity Class shares average daily net assets, so that combined fees will not exceed 0.15%. There is no guarantee that this waiver will continue after December 31, 2010. The amount of the waiver is included in the fees waived by shareholder service provider on the Statement of Operation.

**  To the extent that any Liquidity Class shares of the Fund make payments pursuant to the Distribution Plan and/or the Servicing Plan, the combined total of such payments may not exceed, on an annual basis, 0.25% of the average daily net assets of the Fund's Liquidity Class shares.

Shareholder Administration Fees

The Trust has adopted a shareholder administration plans ("Administration Plans") for the Trust Class and Institutional Class shares of the Fund. Under the Administration Plans, the Fund may pay servicing agents that have entered into a shareholder administration agreement with the Trust for certain shareholder support services that are provided to holders of the classes' shares.

A substantial portion of the expenses incurred pursuant to these plans is paid to affiliates of BOA and the Distributor. The annual rates in effect and plan limits, as a percentage of average daily net assets are as follows:

Administration Plans:   Current Rate   Plan Limit  
Trust Class shares     0.10 %     0.10 %  
Institutional Class shares     0.04 %     0.04 %  

 

Fee Waivers and Expense Reimbursements

BofA and/or some of the Fund's other service providers have contractually agreed to bear a portion of the Fund's expenses through December 31, 2010, so that the Fund's ordinary operating expenses (excluding any distribution, shareholder servicing and/or shareholder administration fees, interest, taxes and extraordinary expenses, but including custodian charges relating to overdrafts, if any) after giving effect to any balance credits from the Fund's custodian, do not exceed the annual rate of 0.20% of the Fund's average daily net assets. There is no guarantee that this expense limitation will continue after December 31, 2010.

The Distributor has voluntarily agreed to reimburse certain class-specific Fund expenses (consisting of shareholder servicing, distribution and shareholder administration fees, as applicable) to the extent necessary in order to maintain a minimum annualized net yield of 0.00% for all classes of the Fund. In addition, BofA has voluntarily agreed to reimburse certain Fund expenses (consisting of advisory and administration fees) to the extent necessary to maintain such yield in the event the Distributor's reimbursement of class specific Fund expenses is fully utilized. These reimbursements are voluntary and may be modified or discontinued by the Distributor or BofA at any time.

Under the Distribution Plans for the Liquidity Class shares, the Trust is currently not reimbursing the Distributor for distribution expenses for Liquidity Class shares.

Unreimbursed expenses incurred by the Distributor in a given year may not be recovered by the Distributor in subsequent years.

Fees Paid to Officers and Trustees

All officers of the Fund are employees of BofA or its affiliates and, with the exception of the Fund's Chief Compliance Officer, receive no compensation from the Fund. The Board of


21



BofA Government Plus Reserves, August 31, 2010

The Fund, along with other affiliated funds, pays its pro-rata share of the expenses associated with the Chief Compliance Officer. The Fund's expenses for the Chief Compliance Officer will not exceed $15,000 per year.

Trustees are compensated for their services to the Fund, as set forth on the Statement of Operations. The Trust's eligible Trustees may participate in a non-qualified deferred compensation plan which may be terminated at any time. Any payments to plan participants are paid solely out of the Fund's assets. Income earned on the plan participant's deferral account is based on the rate of return of the eligible mutual funds selected by the participant or, if no funds are selected, on the rate of return of BofA Treasury Reserves, another portfolio of the Trust. The expense for the deferred compensation plan, which includes trustees' fees deferred during the current period as well as any gains or losses on the trustees' deferred compensation balances as a result of market fluctuations, is included in "Trustees' fees" on the Statement of Operations. The liability for the deferred compensation plan is included in "Trustees' fees" on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

As a result of a fund merger, the Fund assumed the liabilities of the deferred compensation plan of the acquired fund, which are included in "Trustees' deferred compensation plan" on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Any payments to plan participants are paid solely out of the Fund's assets.

Note 5. Custody Credits

The Fund has an agreement with its custodian bank under which custody fees may be reduced by balance credits. These credits are recorded as part of expense reductions on the Statement of Operations. The Fund could have invested a portion of the assets utilized in connection with the expense offset arrangement in an income-producing asset if it had not entered into such an agreement.

For the year ended August 31, 2010, these custody credits reduced total expenses by $35 for the Fund.

Note 6. Line of Credit

The Fund and other affiliated funds participate in a $200,000,000 uncommitted, unsecured line of credit provided by State Street. Borrowings are available for short-term liquidity or temporary or emergency purposes.

Effective December 16, 2009, interest is charged to each participating fund based on the fund's borrowings at a rate per annum equal to the greater of the Federal Funds Rate plus 1.25% or the overnight LIBOR Rate plus 1.25%. An annual administration fee of $10,000 is also accrued and apportioned to each fund participating in the line of credit based on the average net assets of the participating funds.

Prior to December 16, 2009, interest was charged to each participating fund based on the fund's borrowings at a rate per annum equal to the greater of the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.75% or the overnight LIBOR Rate plus 0.75%. A onetime structuring fee of $10,000 was also accrued and apportioned to each fund participating in the line of credit based on the average net assets of the participating funds.

For the year ended August 31, 2010, the Fund did not borrow under these arrangements.

Note 7. Shares of Beneficial Interest

As of August 31, 2010, 91.8% of the Fund's shares outstanding were beneficially owned by two participant accounts over which BOA and/or any of its affiliates had either sole or joint investment discretion.

As of August 31, 2010, no other shareholders owned more than 5% of the outstanding shares of the Fund.

Subscription and redemption activity of these accounts may have a significant effect on the operations of the Fund.

Note 8. Significant Risks and Contingencies

Legal Proceedings

BofA Advisors, LLC and BofA Distributors, Inc. (collectively, the BofA Group) are subject to a settlement agreement with the New York Attorney General (NYAG) (the NYAG Settlement) and a settlement order with the SEC (the SEC Order) on matters relating to mutual fund trading, each dated February 9, 2005. Under the terms of the SEC Order, the BofA Group (or predecessor or affiliated entities) agreed, among other things, to: pay disgorgement and civil money penalties collectively totaling $375 million; cease and desist from violations of the antifraud provisions and certain other provisions of the federal securities laws; maintain certain

BofA Government Plus Reserves, August 31, 2010

compliance and ethics oversight structures; and retain an independent consultant to review the BofA Group's applicable supervisory, compliance, control and other policies and procedures. The NYAG Settlement, among other things, requires BofA Advisors, LLC and its affiliates to make certain disclosures to investors relating to expenses. In connection with the BofA Group providing services to the BofA Funds, the BofA Funds have voluntarily undertaken to implement certain governance measures designed to maintain the independence of their boards of trustees and certain special consulting and compliance measures.

Civil Litigation

In connection with the events that resulted in the NYAG Settlement and SEC Order, various parties filed suits against Bank of America Corporation and certain of its affiliates, including Banc of America Capital Management, LLC (BACAP, now known as BofA Advisors, LLC) and BACAP Distributors, LLC (now known as BofA Distributors, Inc.) (collectively BAC), Nations Funds Trust and its Board of Trustees. On February 20, 2004, the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation transferred these cases and cases against other mutual fund companies based on similar allegations to the United States District Court in Maryland for consolidated or coordinated pretrial proceedings (the MDL). Subsequently, additional related cases were transferred to the MDL. On September 29, 2004, the plaintiffs in the MDL filed amended and consolidated complaints. One of these amended complaints is a putative class action that includes claims under the federal securities laws and state common law, and that names Nations Funds Trust, its Trustees, BAC and others as defendants. Another of the amended complaints is a derivative action purportedly on behalf of the Nations Funds Trust against BAC and others that asserts claims under federal securities laws and state common law. Nations Funds Trust is a nominal defendant in this action. On February 25, 2005, BAC and other defendants filed motions to dismiss the claims in the pending cases. On December 15, 2005, BAC and others entered into a Stipulation of Settlement of the direct and derivative claims brought on behalf of the Nations Funds shareholders. That stipulation was amended on February 4, 2010. The settlement has been preliminarily approved by the court. A final approval hearing on the settlement is scheduled for October 21 and 22, 2010. If the settlement is approved, BAC would pay settlement administration costs and fees to plaintiffs' counsel as approved by the court.

(formerly Columbia Government Plus Reserves, a series of Columbia Funds Series Trust)

In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the schedule of investments, and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of BofA Government Plus Reserves (a series of BofA Funds Series Trust) (formerly Columbia Government Plus Reserves, a series of Columbia Funds Series Trust) (the "Fund") at August 31, 2010, and the results of its operations, the changes in its net assets and the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as "financial statements") are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements 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 are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at August 31, 2010 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

President's Message

To Our Valued Shareholders:

Over the past year, the short-term debt markets continued their recovery from the worst effects of the global financial crisis, but even with that healing, the market environment was hardly hospitable for money market fund investors. The sovereign debt crisis in Europe, anemic economic growth globally and record low interest rates combined to present investors with some very difficult challenges.

At BofA Global Capital Management, we responded to those challenges by maintaining our focus on what is important to investors in the BofA Funds—principal preservation, a high degree of liquidity and achieving the best yields possible consistent with an emphasis on principal preservation and liquidity. To achieve those objectives, we employ sophisticated risk management processes and a conservative approach to security selection that we believe will better insulate our funds from market turbulence. Recognizing the importance of human capital to effective risk management, we have also strengthened our investment team by adding seasoned credit analysts and other talented professionals, whose insights we believe will better position us to manage portfolio risk.

The investments we made in our business—and by extension, in our clients—was an important component of our transition from the liquidity asset management arm of Columbia Management to BofA Global Capital Management. As you may know, Bank of America sold Columbia Management's equity and fixed income asset management businesses to Ameriprise Financial earlier this year. Bank of America elected to retain Columbia Management's liquidity asset management platform in part because of the importance of high-quality liquidity strategies to the bank's clients. We are pleased to report that we completed the transition of Columbia Management's liquidity asset management business to BofA Global Capital Management without disrupting Fund shareholders.

Unfortunately "disruption" was the operative word for the short-term debt markets during the past year. The deteriorating fiscal condition of many European governments raised concerns about the prospect of sovereign debt defaults and their impact on European financial institutions. The crisis, which some observers viewed as a threat to the viability of the European Union, had little direct impact on our funds' performance, as our conservative investment philosophy helped us limit our exposure to European bank debt. In the U.S., the Securities and Exchange Commission imposed new restrictions on the amount of investment risk the managers of money market funds can assume in order to make funds more stable during market crises. BofA Global Capital Management's money market funds were little affected by the SEC's mandates because we had adopted many of the requirements well in advance of their implementation dates.

Looking ahead, we can expect the challenging market environment to continue for the immediate future. The European debt crisis, while somewhat contained, has not been resolved completely and probably will not be until European governments adopt difficult structural reforms. In the United States, many states and municipalities face tough fiscal problems of their own due to declining tax revenues. Finally, record low interest rates continue to place heavy downward pressure on yields. In this environment, the best course of action for liquidity investors, in our view, is to pursue an investment program that emphasizes principal protection but also positions investors to benefit when rates begin to rise. We believe our focus on liquidity-oriented investment strategies, our experienced investment professionals and the resources available to us as part of one of the world's largest financial institutions make BofA Global Capital Management an ideal partner to help you navigate today's challenging markets. We look forward in the months ahead to demonstrating the value we can offer you, and we are grateful for the opportunity to have served you over the past year.

Sincerely,

Michael Pelzar
President, BofA Global Capital Management Group, LLC




Understanding Your ExpensesBofA Government Reserves

As a fund shareholder, you incur ongoing costs, which generally include investment advisory fees, distribution and service (Rule 12b-1) fees and other fund expenses. The information on this page is intended to help you understand the ongoing costs of investing in the fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

Analyzing your fund's expenses by share class

To illustrate these ongoing costs, we have provided an example and calculated the expenses paid by investors in each share class during the period. The information in the following table is based on an initial investment of $1,000, which is invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period. Expense information is calculated two ways and each method provides you with different information. The amount listed in the "Actual" column is calculated using the fund's actual operating expense ratios and actual total return for the period. The amount listed in the "Hypothetical" column for each share class also uses the fund's actual operating expense ratios but assumes that the return each year is 5% before expenses. You should not use the hypothetical account values and expenses to estimate either your actual account balance at the end of the period or the expenses you paid during the period.

Compare with other funds

Since all mutual funds are required to include the same hypothetical calculations about expenses in shareholder reports, you can use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the fund with other funds. To do so, compare the 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of other funds. As you compare hypothetical examples of other funds, it is important to note that hypothetical examples are meant to highlight the ongoing costs of investing in a fund.

Estimating your actual expenses

To estimate the expenses that you paid over the period, first you will need your account balance at the end of the period:

g  For shareholders who receive their account statements from Boston Financial Data Services, Inc., your account balance is available online at www.bofacapital.com or by calling Shareholder Services at 888.331.0904

g  For shareholders who receive their account statements from their financial intermediary, contact your financial intermediary to obtain your account balance.

1.  Divide your ending account balance by $1,000. For example, if an account balance was $8,600 at the end of the period, the result would be 8.6.

2.  In the section of the table below titled "Expenses paid during the period," locate the amount for your share class. You will find this number in the column labeled "Actual." Multiply this number by the result from step 1. Your answer is an estimate of the expenses you paid on your account during the period.

If the value of your account falls below the minimum initial investment requirement applicable to you, your account generally will be subject to an annual fee of up to $20. This fee is not included in the accompanying table. If you are subject to the fee, keep it in mind when you are estimating the ongoing expenses of investing in the fund and when comparing the expenses of this fund with other funds.

Expenses paid during the period are equal to the annualized expense ratio for the share class, multiplied by the average account value over the period, then multiplied by the number of days in the fund's most recent fiscal half-year and divided by 365.

Had the investment advisor and/or any of its affiliates not waived fees or reimbursed a portion of expenses, account value at the end of the period would have been reduced.

It is important to note that the expense amounts shown in the table are meant to highlight only ongoing costs of investing in the fund.

Notes to Financial StatementsBofA Government Reserves
August 31, 2010

Note 1. Organization

Bofa Government Reserves (the "Fund"), formerly Columbia Government Reserves, a series of BofA Funds Series Trust (the "Trust"), is a diversified fund. The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end management investment company organized as a Delaware statutory trust.

As of the close of business on December 31, 2009, the Fund acquired all of the assets and liabilities of Columbia Government Reserves (the "Predecessor Fund"), a series of Columbia Funds Series Trust, pursuant to a reorganization. The reorganization qualified as a tax-free exchange for federal income tax purposes.

As part of the reorganization, each of the Predecessor Fund's share classes were reorganized into the corresponding share class of the Fund. Prior to the reorganization, the financial information of the Fund includes the financial information of the Predecessor Fund. The Predecessor Fund was organized as a separate series of Columbia Funds Series Trust, a Delaware statutory trust, and was registered under the 1940 Act as an open-end management investment company. The Fund is continuing the business, including carrying forward the financial and performance history, of the Predecessor Fund.

Investment Objective

The Fund seeks current income, consistent with capital preservation and maintenance of a high degree of liquidity.

Fund Shares

The Trust may issue an unlimited number of shares, and the Fund offers ten classes of shares: Capital Class, Trust Class, Liquidity Class, Adviser Class, Investor Class, Daily Class, Class A, Institutional Class, Retail A and G-Trust shares. Retail A and G-Trust shares are closed to new investors. Each class of shares is offered continuously at net asset value.

Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Management has evaluated the events and transactions that have occurred through the date the financial statements were issued and noted no items requiring adjustment of the financial statements or additional disclosures.

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements.

Security Valuation

Securities in the Fund are valued utilizing the amortized cost valuation method permitted in accordance with Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act provided certain conditions are met, including that the Fund's Board of Trustees continues to believe that the amortized cost valuation method fairly reflects the market-based net asset value per share of the Fund. This method involves valuing a portfolio security initially at its cost and thereafter assuming a constant accretion or amortization to maturity of any discount or premium, respectively. The Fund's Board of Trustees has established procedures intended to stabilize the Fund's net asset value for purposes of sales and redemptions at $1.00 per share. These procedures include determinations, at such intervals as the Board of Trustees deems appropriate and reasonable in light of current market conditions, of the extent, if any, to which the Fund's market based net asset value deviates from $1.00 per share. In the event such deviation exceeds 1/2 of 1%, the Board of Trustees will promptly consider what action, if any, should be initiated.

GAAP establishes a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value giving the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical securities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements) when market prices are not readily available or reliable. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:

•  Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical securities

•  Level 2 – the Fund's assets assigned to the Level 2 input category represent certain short-term obligations which are valued using amortized cost, an income approach which converts future cash flows to a present value based upon the discount or premium at purchase.


20



BofA Government Reserves, August 31, 2010

•  Level 3 – prices determined using significant unobservable inputs. In situations where quoted prices or observable inputs are unavailable or less reliable, unobservable inputs may be used. Unobservable inputs may include management's own assumptions about the factors market participants would use in pricing an investment.

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

On January 21, 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued an Accounting Standards Update (the "Amendment"), Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820): Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements, which provides guidance on how investment assets and liabilities are to be valued and disclosed. Specifically, the Amendment requires reporting entities to disclose the inputs and valuation techniques used to measure fair value for both recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements for Level 2 and Level 3 positions. The Amendment also requires that transfers between all levels (including Level 1 and Level 2) be disclosed on a gross basis (i.e., transfers out must be disclosed separately from transfers in), and requires disclosure of the reason(s) for the transfer. Additionally, purchases, sales, issuances and settlements must be disclosed on a gross basis in the Level 3 rollforward. The effective date of the Amendment is for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the requirement to provide the Level 3 activity for purchases, sales, issuances and settlements on a gross basis, which will be effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2010. At this time, management is evaluating the implications of the Amendment.

Security Transactions

Security transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Cost is determined and gains (losses) are based upon the specific identification method for both financial statement and federal income tax purposes.

Income Recognition

Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Premium and discount are amortized and accreted, respectively, on all debt securities, unless otherwise noted.

Expenses

General expenses of the Trust are allocated to the Fund and other series of the Trust based upon relative net assets or other expense allocation methodologies determined by the nature of the expense. Expenses directly attributable to the Fund are charged to the Fund.

Determination of Class Net Asset Value

All income, expenses (other than class-specific expenses, as shown on the Statement of Operations) and realized and unrealized gains (losses) are allocated to each class of the Fund on a daily basis for purposes of determining the net asset value of each class. Income and expenses are allocated to each class based on the settled shares method, while realized and unrealized gains (losses) are allocated based on the relative net assets of each class.

Federal Income Tax Status

The Fund intends to qualify each year as a "regulated investment company" under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended, and will distribute substantially all of its taxable income, if any, for its tax year, and as such will not be subject to federal income taxes. In addition, the Fund intends to distribute in each calendar year substantially all of its net investment income, capital gains and certain other amounts, if any, such that the Fund should not be subject to federal excise tax. Therefore, no provision is made for federal income or excise taxes.

Distributions to Shareholders

Distributions from net investment income, if any, are declared daily and paid monthly. Net realized capital gains, if any, are distributed at least annually after the fiscal year in which the capital gains were earned or more frequently to seek to maintain a net asset value of $1.00 per share, unless offset by any available capital loss carryforward. Income distributions and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP.

Indemnification

In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnities. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown because this would involve future claims against the Fund.


21



BofA Government Reserves, August 31, 2010

Also, under the Trust's organizational documents and by contract, the Trustees and officers of the Trust are indemnified against certain liabilities that may arise out of actions relating to their duties to the Trust. However, based on experience, Management expects the risk of loss due to these representations, warranties and indemnities to be minimal.

Note 3. Federal Tax Information

The timing and character of income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. Reclassifications are made to the Fund's capital accounts for permanent tax differences to reflect income and gains available for distribution (or available capital loss carryforwards) under income tax regulations.

The tax character of distributions paid during the years ended August 31, 2010 and August 31, 2009 was as follows:

    August 31,  
Distributions paid from   2010   2009  
Ordinary Income*   $ 223,840     $ 184,173,155    

 

*  For tax purposes short-term capital gain distributions, if any, are considered ordinary income distributions.

As of August 31, 2010, the components of distributable earnings on a tax basis were as follows:

Undistributed
Ordinary
Income
  Undistributed
Long-Term
Capital Gains
 
$ 148,712     $    

 

The following capital loss carryforwards may be available to reduce taxable income arising from future net realized gains on investments, if any, to the extent permitted by the Internal Revenue Code:

Year of Expiration   Capital Loss
Carryforwards
 
2013   $ 16,283    
2014     748,723    
Total   $ 765,006    

 

Capital loss carryforwards of $27,106 were utilized by the Fund during the year ended August 31, 2010.

Management is required to determine whether a tax position of the Fund is more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by the applicable taxing authority, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefit to be recognized by the Fund is measured as the largest amount of benefit that is greater than fifty percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Management is not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months. However, management's conclusions may be subject to review and adjustment at a later date based on factors including, but not limited to, new tax laws, regulations, and administrative interpretations (including relevant court decisions). The Fund's federal tax returns for the prior three fiscal years remain subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service.

Note 4. Fees and Compensation Paid to Affiliates

Bank of America, N.A., an indirect parent company of Columbia, Management Group, LLC ("Columbia") (now known as BofA Global Capital Management Group, LLC), entered into an agreement dated September 29, 2009, to sell a portion of the asset management business of Columbia to Ameriprise Financial, Inc. The transaction ("Transaction") included the sale of the part of the asset management business that advises long-term mutual funds, but did not include the sale of the part of the asset management business that advises the Fund. The transaction closed on May 1, 2010 (the "Closing"). Effective upon the Closing, the names of the Fund and its investment advisor, administrator and distributor changed as shown in the following table:

BofA Government Reserves, August 31, 2010

Investment Advisory Fee

BofA Advisors, LLC ("BofA"), an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of Bank of America Corporation ("BOA"), provides investment advisory services to the Fund. BofA receives a monthly investment advisory fee, calculated based on the combined average net assets of the Fund and certain other money market funds advised by BofA, at the following annual rates:

Average Daily Net Assets   Annual Fee Rates  
First $175 billion     0.15 %  
$175 billion to $225 billion     0.13 %  
Over $225 billion     0.08 %  

 

BofA has contractually agreed to limit the combined investment advisory fee and administration fee for the Fund to an annual rate of 0.19% of the Fund's average net assets through December 31, 2010. There is no guarantee that this expense limitation will continue after December 31, 2010. For the year ended August 31, 2010, the Fund's annualized effective advisory fee rate, net of fee waivers, was 0.15% of the Fund's average daily net assets.

Administration Fee

BofA provides administrative and other services to the Fund for a monthly administration fee, calculated based on the combined average net assets of the Fund and certain other money market funds advised by BofA, at the following annual rates, less the fees payable by the Fund as described under the Pricing and Bookkeeping Fees note below:

Average Daily Net Assets   Annual Fee Rates  
First $125 billion     0.10 %  
$125 billion to $175 billion     0.05 %  
Over $175 billion     0.02 %  

 

Additionally, effective May 1, 2010, BofA has retained State Street Bank and Trust Company ("State Street") to provide certain sub-administration services under a Sub-Administration Agreement. BofA pays State Street a fee for all services received under the Sub-Administration Agreement.

Pricing and Bookkeeping Fees

Prior to May 1, 2010, the Trust had a Financial Reporting Services Agreement (the "Financial Reporting Services Agreement") with State Street Bank and BofA pursuant to which State Street provided financial reporting services to the Fund. Prior to May 1, 2010, the Trust had an Accounting Services Agreement (collectively with the Financial Reporting Services Agreement, the " Former State Street Agreements") with State Street and BofA pursuant to which State Street provided accounting services to the Fund. Effective May 1, 2010, the Trust entered into an amended and restated Financial Reporting Services Agreement and an amended and restated Accounting Services Agreement with State Street and BofA (the "Current State Street Agreements") pursuant to which State Street provides the Fund with services similar to those provided under the Former State Street Agreements. Under the Current State Street Agreements, the Fund pays State Street an annual fee of $38,000 paid monthly plus an additional monthly fee based on an annualized percentage rate of average daily net assets of the Fund for the month. The aggregate fee will not exceed $140,000 per year (exclusive of out-of-pocket expenses and charges). The Fund also reimburses State Street for certain out-of-pocket expenses and charges.

Prior to May 1, 2010, the Trust had a Pricing and Bookkeeping Oversight and Services Agreement (the "Services Agreement") with BofA. Under the Services Agreement, BofA provided services related to Fund expenses and the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, and provided oversight of the accounting and financial reporting services provided by State Street. Under the Services Agreement, the Fund reimbursed BofA for out-of-pocket expenses and charges, including fees payable to third parties, such as for pricing the Fund's portfolio securities, incurred by BofA in the performance of services under the Services Agreement. The Services Agreement was terminated upon the Closing, and the services that were provided thereunder are covered under an amended and restated administration agreement with BofA.

Transfer Agent Fee

Prior to May 1, 2010, Columbia Management Services, Inc. (the "Former Transfer Agent"), an affiliate of BofA Global Capital Management Group, LLC ("BofA Global Capital Management") and an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of BOA, provided shareholder services to the Fund and had


23



BofA Government Reserves, August 31, 2010

contracted with Boston Financial Data Services, Inc. ("BFDS" or the "Current Transfer Agent") to serve as sub-transfer agent. Effective January 1, 2010, the Former Transfer Agent was entitled to receive a fee for its services, paid monthly, at the annual rate of $22.36 per account plus reimbursement of certain sub-transfer agent fees paid by the Former Transfer Agent (exclusive of BFDS fees), calculated based on assets held in omnibus accounts and intended to recover the cost of payments to other parties (including affiliates of BOA) for services to those accounts. Prior to January 1, 2010, the annual rate was $17.34 per account. The Former Transfer Agent paid the fees of BFDS for services as sub-transfer agent and was not entitled to reimbursement for such fees from the Fund.

The Former Transfer Agent was also entitled to retain, as additional compensation for its services, fees for wire, telephone and redemption orders, Individual Retirement Account ("IRA") trustee agent fees and account transcript fees due to the Former Transfer Agent from shareholders of the Fund and credits (net of bank charges) earned with respect to balances in accounts the Former Transfer Agent maintained in connection with its services to the Fund. The Former Transfer Agent also received reimbursement for certain out-of-pocket expenses.

Effective May 1, 2010, the Current Transfer Agent acts as transfer agent for the Fund's shares. Under a transfer agency agreement with the Trust, the Current Transfer Agent provides transfer agency, dividend disbursing agency and shareholder servicing agency services to the Fund.

An annual minimum account balance fee of up to $20 may apply to certain accounts with a value below the Fund's minimum investment requirements to reduce the impact of small accounts on transfer agent fees. These minimum account balance fees are recorded as part of expense reductions on the Statement of Operations. For the year ended August 31, 2010, no minimum account balance fees were charged by the Fund.

Distribution and Service Fees

BofA Distributors, Inc. (the "Distributor"), an affiliate of BOA, is the principal underwriter of the Fund's shares.

The Trust has adopted distribution plans ("Distribution Plans") for the Liquidity Class, Investor Class, Daily Class and Class A shares of the Fund. The Distribution Plans, adopted pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act, permit the Fund to compensate or reimburse the Distributor and/or selling agents for activities or expenses primarily intended to result in the sale of the classes' shares.

The Trust also has adopted shareholder servicing plans ("Servicing Plans") for the Liquidity Class, Adviser Class, Investor Class, Daily Class, Class A and Retail A shares of the Fund. The Servicing Plans permit the Fund to compensate or reimburse servicing agents for the shareholder services they have provided.

A substantial portion of the expenses incurred pursuant to these plans is paid to affiliates of BOA and the Distributor. The annual rates in effect and plan limits, as a percentage of average daily net assets are as follows:

Distribution Plans:   Current Rate
(after fee
waivers)
  Plan Limit  
Liquidity Class shares     0.15 %*     0.25 %**

*  The Distributor has contractually agreed to waive Distribution Plan fees and/or Servicing Plan fees through December 31, 2010 as a percentage of the Fund's Liquidity Class shares average daily net assets at an annual rate of 0.10%, so that combined fees will not exceed 0.15%. There is no guarantee that this waiver will continue after December 31, 2010. The amount of the waiver is included in the fees waived by shareholder service provider on the Statement of Operations.

**  To the extent that the Liquidity Class shares of the Fund make payments pursuant to the Distribution Plan and/or the Servicing Plan, the combined total of such payments may not exceed, on an

BofA Government Reserves, August 31, 2010

annual basis, 0.25% of the average daily net assets of the Fund's Liquidity Class shares.

Shareholder Administration Fees

The Trust also has adopted shareholder administration plans ("Administration Plans") for the Trust Class, Class A and Institutional Class shares of the Fund. Under the Administration Plans, the Fund may pay servicing agents that have entered into a shareholder administration agreement with the Trust for certain shareholder support services that are provided to holders of the classes' shares. A substantial portion of the expenses incurred pursuant to these plans is paid to affiliates of BOA and the Distributor. The annual rates in effect and plan limits, as a percentage of average daily net assets are as follows:

Administration Plans:   Current Rate   Plan Limit  
Trust Class shares     0.10 %     0.10 %  
Class A shares     0.10 %     0.10 %  
Institutional Class shares     0.04 %     0.04 %  

 

Fee Waivers and Expense Reimbursements

BofA and/or some of the Fund's other service providers have contractually agreed to bear a portion of the Fund's expenses through December 31, 2010, so that the Fund's ordinary operating expenses (excluding any distribution, shareholder servicing and/or shareholder administration fees, interest, taxes and extraordinary expenses, but including custodian charges relating to overdrafts, if any) after giving effect to any balance credits from the Fund's custodian, do not exceed the annual rate of 0.20% of the Fund's average daily net assets. There is no guarantee that this expense limitation will continue after December 31, 2010.

The Distributor has voluntarily agreed to reimburse certain class-specific Fund expenses (consisting of shareholder servicing, distribution and shareholder administration fees, as applicable) to the extent necessary in order to maintain a minimum annualized net yield of 0.00% for all classes of the Fund. In addition, BofA has voluntarily agreed to reimburse certain Fund expenses (consisting of advisory and administration fees) to the extent necessary to maintain such yield in the event the Distributor's reimbursement of class-specific Fund expenses is fully utilized. These reimbursements are voluntary and may be modified or discontinued by the Distributor or BofA at any time.

BofA is entitled to recover from the Fund any fees waived and/or expenses reimbursed for a three year period following the date of such fee waiver and/or reimbursement if such recovery does not cause the Fund's total operating expenses to exceed the expense limitation in effect at the time of recovery.

Under the Distribution Plan for the Liquidity Class shares, the Trust is currently not reimbursing the Distributor for distribution expenses for Liquidity Class shares. Unreimbursed expenses incurred by the Distributor in a given year may not be recovered by the Distributor in subsequent years.

At August 31, 2010, the amounts potentially recoverable by BofA pursuant to this arrangement are as follows:

Amount of potential recovery expiring August 31:   Total
potential
  Amount recovered
during the year
 
2013   2012   2011   recovery   ended 8/31/10  
$ 7,840,967     $ 14,732,652     $ 7,400,332     $ 29,973,951     $    

 

Fees Paid to Officers and Trustees

All officers of the Fund are employees of BofA or its affiliates and, with the exception of the Fund's Chief Compliance Officer, receive no compensation from the Fund. The Board of Trustees has appointed a Chief Compliance Officer to the Fund in accordance with federal securities regulations. The Fund, along with other affiliated funds, pays its pro-rata share of the expenses associated with the Chief Compliance Officer. The Fund's expenses for the Chief Compliance Officer will not exceed $15,000 per year.

Trustees are compensated for their services to the Fund, as set forth on the Statement of Operations.

The Trust's eligible Trustees may participate in a nonqualified deferred compensation plan which may be terminated at any time. Any payments to plan participants are paid solely out of


25



BofA Government Reserves, August 31, 2010

the Fund's assets. Income earned on the plan participant's deferral account is based on the rate of return of the eligible mutual funds selected by the participant or, if no funds are selected, on the rate of return of BofA Treasury Reserves, another portfolio of the Trust. The expense for the deferred compensation plan, which includes trustees' fees deferred during the current period as well as any gains or losses on the trustees' deferred compensation balances as a result of market fluctuations, is included in "Trustees' fees" on the Statement of Operations. The liability for the deferred compensation plan is included in "Trustees' fees" on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

As a result of a fund merger, the Fund assumed the liabilities of the deferred compensation plan of the acquired fund, which are included in "Trustees' deferred compensation plan" on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Any payments to plan participants are paid solely out of the Fund's assets.

Note 5. Custody Credits

The Fund has an agreement with its custodian bank under which custody fees may be reduced by balance credits. These credits are recorded as part of expense reductions on the Statement of Operations. The Fund could have invested a portion of the assets utilized in connection with the expense offset arrangement in an income-producing asset if it had not entered into such an agreement.

For the year ended August 31, 2010, these custody credits reduced total expenses by $491 for the Fund.

Note 6. Line of Credit

The Fund and other affiliated funds participate in a $200,000,000 uncommitted, unsecured line of credit provided by State Street. Borrowings are available for short-term liquidity or temporary or emergency purposes.

Effective December 16, 2009, interest is charged to each participating fund based on the fund's borrowings at a rate per annum equal to the greater of the Federal Funds Rate plus 1.25% or the overnight LIBOR Rate plus 1.25%. An annual administration fee of $10,000 is also accrued and apportioned to each fund participating in the line of credit based on the average net assets of the participating funds.

Prior to December 16, 2009, interest was charged to each participating fund based on the fund's borrowings at a rate per annum equal to the greater of the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.75% or the overnight LIBOR Rate plus 0.75%. A one-time structuring fee of $10,000 was also accrued and apportioned to each fund participating in the line of credit based on the average net assets of the participating funds.

For the year ended February 28, 2010, the Fund did not borrow under these arrangements.

Note 7. Shares of Beneficial Interest

As of August 31, 2010, 79.9% of the Fund's shares outstanding were beneficially owned by two participant accounts over which BOA and/or any of its affiliates had either sole or joint investment discretion.

As of August 31, 2010, no other shareholders owned more than 5% of the outstanding shares of the Fund.

Subscription and redemption activity of these accounts may have a significant effect on the operations of the Fund.

Note 8. Significant Risks and Contingencies

Legal Proceedings

BofA Advisors, LLC and BofA Distributors, Inc. (collectively, the BofA Group) are subject to a settlement agreement with the New York Attorney General (NYAG) (the NYAG Settlement) and a settlement order with the SEC (the SEC Order) on matters relating to mutual fund trading, each dated February 9, 2005. Under the terms of the SEC Order, the BofA Group (or predecessor or affiliated entities) agreed, among other things, to: pay disgorgement and civil money penalties collectively totaling $375 million; cease and desist from violations of the antifraud provisions and certain other provisions of the federal securities laws; maintain certain compliance and ethics oversight structures; and retain an independent consultant to review the BofA Group's applicable supervisory, compliance, control and other policies and procedures. The NYAG Settlement, among other things, requires BofA Advisors, LLC and its affiliates to make certain disclosures to investors relating to expenses. In connection with the BofA Group providing services to the BofA Funds, the BofA Funds have voluntarily undertaken to implement certain governance measures designed to maintain the independence of their boards of trustees and certain special consulting and compliance measures.

BofA Government Reserves, August 31, 2010

Civil Litigation

In connection with the events that resulted in the NYAG Settlement and SEC Order, various parties filed suits against Bank of America Corporation and certain of its affiliates, including Banc of America Capital Management, LLC (BACAP, now known as BofA Advisors, LLC) and BACAP Distributors, LLC (now known as BofA Distributors, Inc.) (collectively BAC), Nations Funds Trust and its Board of Trustees. On February 20, 2004, the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation transferred these cases and cases against other mutual fund companies based on similar allegations to the United States District Court in Maryland for consolidated or coordinated pretrial proceedings (the MDL). Subsequently, additional related cases were transferred to the MDL. On September 29, 2004, the plaintiffs in the MDL filed amended and consolidated complaints. One of these amended complaints is a putative class action that includes claims under the federal securities laws and state common law, and that names Nations Funds Trust, its Trustees, BAC and others as defendants. Another of the amended complaints is a derivative action purportedly on behalf of the Nations Funds Trust against BAC and others that asserts claims under federal securities laws and state common law. Nations Funds Trust is a nominal defendant in this action. On February 25, 2005, BAC and other defendants filed motions to dismiss the claims in the pending cases. On December 15, 2005, BAC and others entered into a Stipulation of Settlement of the direct and derivative claims brought on behalf of the Nations Funds shareholders. That stipulation was amended on February 4, 2010. The settlement has been preliminarily approved by the court. A final approval hearing on the settlement is scheduled for October 21 and 22, 2010. If the settlement is approved, BAC would pay settlement administration costs and fees to plaintiffs' counsel as approved by the court.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Trustees of BofA Funds Series Trust and Shareholders of BofA Government Reserves (formerly Columbia Government Reserves, a series of Columbia Funds Series Trust)

In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the investment portfolio, and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of BofA Government Reserves (a series of BofA Funds Series Trust) (formerly Columbia Government Reserves, a series of Columbia Funds Series Trust) (the "Fund") at August 31, 2010, and the results of its operations, the changes in its net assets and the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as "financial statements") are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements 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 are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at August 31, 2010 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

President's Message

To Our Valued Shareholders:

Over the past year, the short-term debt markets continued their recovery from the worst effects of the global financial crisis, but even with that healing, the market environment was hardly hospitable for money market fund investors. The sovereign debt crisis in Europe, anemic economic growth globally and record low interest rates combined to present investors with some very difficult challenges.

At BofA Global Capital Management, we responded to those challenges by maintaining our focus on what is important to investors in the BofA Funds—principal preservation, a high degree of liquidity and achieving the best yields possible consistent with an emphasis on principal preservation and liquidity. To achieve those objectives, we employ sophisticated risk management processes and a conservative approach to security selection that we believe will better insulate our funds from market turbulence. Recognizing the importance of human capital to effective risk management, we have also strengthened our investment team by adding seasoned credit analysts and other talented professionals, whose insights we believe will better position us to manage portfolio risk.

The investments we made in our business—and by extension, in our clients—was an important component of our transition from the liquidity asset management arm of Columbia Management to BofA Global Capital Management. As you may know, Bank of America sold Columbia Management's equity and fixed income asset management businesses to Ameriprise Financial earlier this year. Bank of America elected to retain Columbia Management's liquidity asset management platform in part because of the importance of high-quality liquidity strategies to the bank's clients. We are pleased to report that we completed the transition of Columbia Management's liquidity asset management business to BofA Global Capital Management without disrupting Fund shareholders.

Unfortunately "disruption" was the operative word for the short-term debt markets during the past year. The deteriorating fiscal condition of many European governments raised concerns about the prospect of sovereign debt defaults and their impact on European financial institutions. The crisis, which some observers viewed as a threat to the viability of the European Union, had little direct impact on our funds' performance, as our conservative investment philosophy helped us limit our exposure to European bank debt. In the U.S., the Securities and Exchange Commission imposed new restrictions on the amount of investment risk the managers of money market funds can assume in order to make funds more stable during market crises. BofA Global Capital Management's money market funds were little affected by the SEC's mandates because we had adopted many of the requirements well in advance of their implementation dates.

Looking ahead, we can expect the challenging market environment to continue for the immediate future. The European debt crisis, while somewhat contained, has not been resolved completely and probably will not be until European governments adopt difficult structural reforms. In the United States, many states and municipalities face tough fiscal problems of their own due to declining tax revenues. Finally, record low interest rates continue to place heavy downward pressure on yields. In this environment, the best course of action for liquidity investors, in our view, is to pursue an investment program that emphasizes principal protection but also positions investors to benefit when rates begin to rise. We believe our focus on liquidity-oriented investment strategies, our experienced investment professionals and the resources available to us as part of one of the world's largest financial institutions make BofA Global Capital Management an ideal partner to help you navigate today's challenging markets. We look forward in the months ahead to demonstrating the value we can offer you, and we are grateful for the opportunity to have served you over the past year.

Sincerely,

Michael Pelzar
President, BofA Global Capital Management Group, LLC




Understanding Your ExpensesBofA Money Market Reserves

As a fund shareholder, you incur ongoing costs, which generally include investment advisory fees, distribution and service (Rule 12b-1) fees and other fund expenses. The information on this page is intended to help you understand the ongoing costs of investing in the fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

Analyzing your fund's expenses by share class

To illustrate these ongoing costs, we have provided an example and calculated the expenses paid by investors in each share class during the period. The information in the following table is based on an initial investment of $1,000, which is invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period. Expense information is calculated two ways and each method provides you with different information. The amount listed in the "Actual" column is calculated using the fund's actual operating expense ratios and actual total return for the period. The amount listed in the "Hypothetical" column for each share class also uses the fund's actual operating expense ratios but assumes that the return each year is 5% before expenses. You should not use the hypothetical account values and expenses to estimate either your actual account balance at the end of the period or the expenses you paid during the period.

Compare with other funds

Since all mutual funds are required to include the same hypothetical calculations about expenses in shareholder reports, you can use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the fund with other funds. To do so, compare the 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of other funds. As you compare hypothetical examples of other funds, it is important to note that hypothetical examples are meant to highlight the ongoing costs of investing in a fund.

Estimating your actual expenses

To estimate the expenses that you paid over the period, first you will need your account balance at the end of the period:

g  For shareholders who receive their account statements from Boston Financial Data Services, Inc., your account balance is available online at www.bofacapital.com or by calling Shareholder Services at 888.331.0904

g  For shareholders who receive their account statements from their financial intermediary, contact your financial intermediary to obtain your account balance.

1.  Divide your ending account balance by $1,000. For example, if an account balance was $8,600 at the end of the period, the result would be 8.6.

2.  In the section of the table below titled "Expenses paid during the period," locate the amount for your share class. You will find this number in the column labeled "Actual." Multiply this number by the result from step 1. Your answer is an estimate of the expenses you paid on your account during the period.

If the value of your account falls below the minimum initial investment requirement applicable to you, your account generally will be subject to an annual fee of up to $20. This fee is not included in the accompanying table. If you are subject to the fee, keep it in mind when you are estimating the ongoing expenses of investing in the fund and when comparing the expenses of this fund with other funds.

Expenses paid during the period are equal to the annualized expense ratio for the share class, multiplied by the average account value over the period, then multiplied by the number of days in the fund's most recent fiscal half-year and divided by 365.

Had the investment advisor and/or any of its affiliates not waived fees or reimbursed a portion of expenses, account value at the end of the period would have been reduced.

It is important to note that the expense amounts shown in the table are meant to highlight only ongoing costs of investing in the fund.

Notes to Financial StatementsBofA Money Market Reserves
August 31, 2010

Note 1. Organization

BofA Money Market Reserves (the "Fund"), formerly Columbia Money Market Reserves, a series of BofA Funds Series Trust (the "Trust"), is a diversified fund. The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end management investment company organized as a Delaware statutory trust.

As of the close of business on December 31, 2009, the Fund acquired all of the assets and liabilities of Columbia Money Market Reserves (the "Predecessor Fund"), a series of Columbia Funds Series Trust, pursuant to a reorganization. The reorganization qualified as a tax-free exchange for federal income tax purposes.

As part of the reorganization, each of the Predecessor Fund's share classes were reorganized into the corresponding share class of the Fund. Prior to the reorganization, the financial information of the Fund includes the financial information of the Predecessor Fund. The Predecessor Fund was organized as a separate series of Columbia Funds Series Trust, a Delaware statutory trust, and was registered under the 1940 Act as an open-end management investment company. The Fund is continuing the business, including carrying forward the financial and performance history, of the Predecessor Fund.

Investment Objective

The Fund seeks current income, consistent with capital preservation and maintenance of a high degree of liquidity.

Fund Shares

The Trust may issue an unlimited number of shares and the Fund offers eight classes of shares: Capital Class, Trust Class, Liquidity Class, Adviser Class, Investor Class, Institutional Class, Retail A and G-Trust shares. Retail A and G-Trust shares are closed to new investors. Each class of shares is offered continuously at net asset value.

Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Management has evaluated the events and transactions that have occurred through the date the financial statements were issued and noted no items requiring adjustment of the financial statements or additional disclosures. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements.

Security Valuation

Securities in the Fund are valued utilizing the amortized cost valuation method permitted in accordance with Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act provided certain conditions are met, including that the Fund's Board of Trustees continues to believe that the amortized cost valuation method fairly reflects the market-based net asset value per share of the Fund. This method involves valuing a portfolio security initially at its cost and thereafter assuming a constant accretion or amortization to maturity of any discount or premium, respectively. The Fund's Board of Trustees has established procedures intended to stabilize the Fund's net asset value for purposes of sales and redemptions at $1.00 per share. These procedures include determinations, at such intervals as the Board of Trustees deems appropriate and reasonable in light of current market conditions, of the extent, if any, to which the Fund's market based net asset value deviates from $1.00 per share. In the event such deviation exceeds 1/2 of 1%, the Board of Trustees will promptly consider what action, if any, should be initiated.

GAAP establishes a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value giving the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical securities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements) when market prices are not readily available or reliable. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:

•  Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical securities

•  Level 2 – the Fund's assets assigned to the Level 2 input category represent certain short-term obligations which are valued using amortized cost, an income approach which converts future cash flows to a present value based upon the discount or premium at purchase.


23



BofA Money Market Reserves, August 31, 2010

•  Level 3 – prices determined using significant unobservable inputs. In situations where quoted prices or observable inputs are unavailable or less reliable, unobservable inputs may be used. Unobservable inputs may include management's own assumptions about the factors market participants would use in pricing an investment.

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

On January 21, 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued an Accounting Standards Update (the "Amendment"), Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820): Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements, which provides guidance on how investment assets and liabilities are to be valued and disclosed. Specifically, the Amendment requires reporting entities to disclose the inputs and valuation techniques used to measure fair value for both recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements for Level 2 and Level 3 positions. The Amendment also requires that transfers between all levels (including Level 1 and Level 2) be disclosed on a gross basis (i.e., transfers out must be disclosed separately from transfers in), and requires disclosure of the reason(s) for the transfer. Additionally, purchases, sales, issuances and settlements must be disclosed on a gross basis in the Level 3 rollforward. The effective date of the Amendment is for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the requirement to provide the Level 3 activity for purchases, sales, issuances and settlements on a gross basis, which will be effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2010. At this time, management is evaluating the implications of the Amendment.

Security Transactions

Security transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Cost is determined and gains (losses) are based upon the specific identification method for both financial statement and federal income tax purposes.

Repurchase Agreements

The Fund may engage in repurchase agreement transactions with institutions that BofA Advisors, LLC ("BofA"), the Fund's investment advisor, has determined are creditworthy. The Fund, through its custodian, receives delivery of the underlying securities collateralizing a repurchase agreement. BofA is responsible for determining that the collateral is at least equal, at all times, to the value of the repurchase obligation including interest. A repurchase agreement transaction involves certain risks in the event of default or insolvency of the counterparty. These risks include possible delays in or restrictions on the Fund's ability to dispose of the underlying securities and a possible decline in the value of the underlying securities during the period while the Fund seeks to assert its rights.

Income Recognition

Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Premium and discount are amortized and accreted, respectively, on all debt securities, unless otherwise noted.

Expenses

General expenses of the Trust are allocated to the Fund and other series of the Trust based upon relative net assets or other expense allocation methodologies determined by the nature of the expense. Expenses directly attributable to the Fund are charged to the Fund.

Determination of Class Net Asset Value

All income, expenses (other than class-specific expenses, as shown on the Statement of Operations) and realized and unrealized gains (losses) are allocated to each class of the Fund on a daily basis for purposes of determining the net asset value of each class. Income and expenses are allocated to each class based on the settled shares method, while realized and unrealized gains (losses) are allocated based on the relative net assets of each class.

Federal Income Tax Status

The Fund intends to qualify each year as a "regulated investment company" under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended, and will distribute substantially all of its taxable income, if any, for its tax year, and as such will not be subject to federal income taxes. In addition, the Fund intends to distribute in each calendar year substantially all of its net investment income, capital gains and certain other amounts, if any, such that the Fund should not be subject to federal excise tax. Therefore, no federal income or excise tax provision is recorded.

BofA Money Market Reserves, August 31, 2010

Distributions to Shareholders

Distributions from net investment income, if any, are declared daily and paid monthly. Net realized capital gains, if any, are distributed at least annually after the fiscal year in which the capital gains were earned or more frequently to seek to maintain a net asset value of $1.00 per share, unless offset by any available capital loss carryforward. Income distributions and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP.

Indemnification

In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnities. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown because this would involve future claims against the Fund. Also, under the Trust's organizational documents and by contract, the Trustees and officers of the Trust are indemnified against certain liabilities that may arise out of actions relating to their duties to the Trust. However, based on experience, Management expects the risk of loss due to these representations, warranties and indemnities to be minimal.

Note 3. Capital Support Agreement

Columbia Funds Series Trust, on behalf of the Predecessor Fund, now a series of BofA Funds Series Trust, entered into a Capital Support Agreement (the "Agreement") with NB Funding Company LLC (the "Support Provider"), an affiliate of BofA. Bank of America Corporation ("BOA") guaranteed to the Fund the payment of any capital contribution that the Support Provider was obligated to make under the Agreement.

The Fund's objective in entering into the Agreement was to enable it to continue to offer and redeem its shares at $1.00 per share by permitting it to maintain its market-based net asset value ("NAV") per share at an amount no less than the specific level set forth in the Agreement (the "Minimum NAV Per Share"). The Agreement established the basis for the Support Provider to make a capital contribution to the Fund in order to prevent realized losses from the disposition of certain covered securities from causing the Fund's market-based NAV per share to fall below the Minimum NAV Per Share. For purposes of the Agreement, a "capital contribution" was a cash contribution by the Support Provider to the Fund for which the Support Provider did not receive any shares or other consideration from the Fund.

The Agreement required the Support Provider to make a capital contribution upon the Fund's disposition of a portfolio security that had been subject to an event as specified in paragraph (c)(6)(ii)(A) through (D) of Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act (a "Covered Security") at less than its amortized cost (a "Triggering Event"). The Agreement required the Support Provider to contribute cash in an amount necessary to prevent the Triggering Event from causing the Fund's market-based NAV per share to decline below the Minimum NAV Per Share, subject to the Maximum Contribution Amount.

The Fund treated the Agreement as an asset of the Fund in calculating its market-based NAV. The value of the Agreement increased or decreased on certain days the Fund calculated its market-based NAV per share as a result of changes in the market value of the Covered Securities, or other factors, prior to the actual payment of the capital contribution by the Support Provider to the Fund.

On September 8, 2009, an affiliate of BofA purchased the remaining Covered Securities owned by the Fund (see Note 10). As a result of this transaction, the Fund terminated the Agreement with the Support Provider effective September 9, 2009. The maximum value of the asset represented by the Agreement for the period from September 1, 2008 through September 8, 2009 was $155,311,555.

Note 4. Federal Tax Information

The timing and character of income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. Reclassifications are made to the Fund's capital accounts for permanent tax differences to reflect income and gains available for distribution (or available capital loss carryforwards) under income tax regulations.

The tax character of distributions paid during the years ended August 31, 2010 and August 31, 2009 was as follows:

    August 31,  
Distributions paid from   2010   2009  
Ordinary Income*   $ 12,792,518     $ 210,578,487    

 

*  For tax purposes short-term capital gain distributions, if any, are considered ordinary income distributions.


25



BofA Money Market Reserves, August 31, 2010

As of August 31, 2010, the components of distributable earnings on a tax basis were as follows:

Undistributed
Ordinary
Income
  Undistributed
Long-Term
Capital Gains
 
$ 338,667     $    

 

The following capital loss carryforward, determined as of August 31, 2010, may be available to reduce taxable income arising from future net realized gains on investments, if any, to the extent permitted by the Internal Revenue Code:

Year of Expiration   Capital Loss
Carryforward
 
  2014     $ 134,197    

 

Capital loss carryforwards of $56,868 were utilized by the Fund during the year ended August 31, 2010.

Management is required to determine whether a tax position of the Fund is more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by the applicable taxing authority, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefit to be recognized by the Fund is measured as the largest amount of benefit that is greater than fifty percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Management is not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months. However, management's conclusions may be subject to review and adjustment at a later date based on factors including, but not limited to, new tax laws, regulations, and administrative interpretations (including relevant court decisions). The Fund's federal tax returns for the prior three fiscal years remain subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service.

Note 5. Fees and Compensation Paid to Affiliates

Bank of America, N.A., an indirect parent company of Columbia Management Group, LLC ("Columbia") (now known as BofA Global Capital Management Group, LLC), entered into an agreement dated September 29, 2009, to sell a portion of the asset management business of Columbia to Ameriprise Financial, Inc. The transaction ("Transaction") included the sale of the part of the asset management business that advises long-term mutual funds, but did not include the sale of the part of the asset management business that advises the Fund. The transaction closed on May 1, 2010 (the "Closing"). Effective upon the Closing, the names of the Fund and its investment advisor, administrator and distributor changed as shown in the following table:

Investment Advisory Fee

BofA, an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of BOA, provides investment advisory services to the Fund. BofA receives a monthly investment advisory fee, calculated based on the combined average net assets of the Fund and certain other money market funds advised by BofA, at the following annual rates:

Average Daily Net Assets   Annual Fee Rates  
First $175 billion     0.15 %  
$175 billion to $225 billion     0.13 %  
Over $225 billion     0.08 %  

 

BofA has contractually agreed to limit the combined investment advisory fee and administration fee for the Fund to an annual rate of 0.19% of the Fund's average net assets through December 31, 2010. There is no guarantee that this expense limitation will continue after December 31, 2010.

For the year ended August 31, 2010, the Fund's annualized effective advisory fee rate, net of fee waivers, was 0.15% of the Fund's average daily net assets.


26



BofA Money Market Reserves, August 31, 2010

Administration Fee

BofA provides administrative and other services to the Fund for a monthly administration fee, calculated based on the combined average net assets of the Fund and certain other money market funds advised by BofA, at the following annual rates, less the fees payable by the Fund as described under the Pricing and Bookkeeping Fees note below:

Average Daily Net Assets   Annual Fee Rates  
First $125 billion     0.10 %  
$125 billion to $175 billion     0.05 %  
Over $175 billion     0.02 %  

 

Additionally, effective May 1, 2010, BofA has retained State Street Bank and Trust Company ("State Street") to provide certain sub-administration services under a Sub-Administration Agreement. BofA pays State Street a fee for all services received under the Sub-Administration Agreement.

Pricing and Bookkeeping Fees

Prior to May 1, 2010, the Trust had a Financial Reporting Services Agreement (the "Financial Reporting Services Agreement") with State Street Bank and BofA pursuant to which State Street provided financial reporting services to the Fund. Prior to May 1, 2010, the Trust had an Accounting Services Agreement (collectively with the Financial Reporting Services Agreement, the " Former State Street Agreements") with State Street and BofA pursuant to which State Street provided accounting services to the Fund. Effective May 1, 2010, the Trust entered into an amended and restated Financial Reporting Services Agreement and an amended and restated Accounting Services Agreement with State Street and BofA (the "Current State Street Agreements") pursuant to which State Street provides the Fund with services similar to those provided under the Former State Street Agreements. Under the Current State Street Agreements, the Fund pays State Street an annual fee of $38,000 paid monthly plus an additional monthly fee based on an annualized percentage rate of average daily net assets of the Fund for the month. The aggregate fee will not exceed $140,000 per year (exclusive of out-of-pocket expenses and charges). The Fund also reimburses State Street for certain out-of-pocket expenses and charges.

Prior to May 1, 2010, the Trust had a Pricing and Bookkeeping Oversight and Services Agreement (the "Services Agreement") with BofA. Under the Services Agreement, BofA provided services related to Fund expenses and the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, and provided oversight of the accounting and financial reporting services provided by State Street. Under the Services Agreement, the Fund reimbursed BofA for out-of-pocket expenses and charges, including fees payable to third parties, such as for pricing the Fund's portfolio securities, incurred by BofA in the performance of services under the Services Agreement. The Services Agreement was terminated upon the Closing, and the services that were provided thereunder are covered under an amended and restated administration agreement with BofA.

Transfer Agent Fee

Prior to May 1, 2010, Columbia Management Services, Inc. (the "Former Transfer Agent"), an affiliate of BofA Global Capital Management Group, LLC ("BofA Global Capital Management") and an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of BOA, provided shareholder services to the Fund and had contracted with Boston Financial Data Services, Inc. ("BFDS" or the "Current Transfer Agent") to serve as sub-transfer agent. Effective January 1, 2010, the Former Transfer Agent was entitled to receive a fee for its services, paid monthly, at the annual rate of $22.36 per account plus reimbursement of certain sub-transfer agent fees paid by the Former Transfer Agent (exclusive of BFDS fees), calculated based on assets held in omnibus accounts and intended to recover the cost of payments to other parties (including affiliates of BOA) for services to those accounts. Prior to January 1, 2010, the annual rate was $17.34 per account. The Former Transfer Agent paid the fees of BFDS for services as sub-transfer agent and was not entitled to reimbursement for such fees from the Fund.

The Former Transfer Agent was also entitled to retain, as additional compensation for its services, fees for wire, telephone and redemption orders, Individual Retirement Account ("IRA") trustee agent fees and account transcript fees due to the Former Transfer Agent from shareholders of the Fund and credits (net of bank charges) earned with respect to balances in accounts the Former Transfer Agent maintained in connection with its services to the Fund. The Former Transfer Agent also received reimbursement for certain out-of-pocket expenses.

Effective May 1, 2010, the Current Transfer Agent acts as transfer agent for the Fund's shares. Under a transfer agency agreement with the Trust, the Current Transfer Agent


27



BofA Money Market Reserves, August 31, 2010

provides transfer agency, dividend disbursing agency and shareholder servicing agency services to the Fund.

An annual minimum account balance fee of up to $20 may apply to certain accounts with a value below the Fund's minimum investment requirements to reduce the impact of small accounts on transfer agent fees. These minimum account balance fees are recorded as part of expense reductions on the Statement of Operations. For the year ended August 31, 2010, no minimum account balance fees were charged by the Fund.

Distribution and Service Fees

BofA Distributors, Inc. (the "Distributor"), an affiliate of BOA, is the principal underwriter of the Fund's shares.

The Trust has adopted distribution plans ("Distribution Plans") for the Liquidity Class, Investor Class, Daily Class and Class A shares of the Fund. The Distribution Plans, adopted pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act, permit the Fund to compensate or reimburse the Distributor and/or selling agents for activities or expenses primarily intended to result in the sale of the classes' shares.

The Trust also has adopted shareholder servicing plans ("Servicing Plans") for the Liquidity Class, Adviser Class, Investor Class and Retail A shares of the Fund. The Servicing Plans permit the Fund to compensate or reimburse servicing agents for the shareholder services they have provided. A substantial portion of the expenses incurred pursuant to these plans is paid to affiliates of BOA and the Distributor.

The annual rates in effect and plan limits, as a percentage of average daily net assets are as follows:

Distribution Plans:   Current Rate
(after fee
waivers)
  Plan Limit  
Liquidity Class shares     0.15 %*     0.25 %**  
Investor Class shares     0.10 %     0.10 %  
Servicing Plans:  
Liquidity Class shares     0.15 %*     0.25 %**  
Adviser Class shares     0.25 %     0.25 %  
Investor Class shares     0.25 %     0.25 %  
Retail A shares     0.07 %     0.07 %  

 

*  The Distributor has contractually agreed to waive Distribution Plan fees and/or Servicing Plan fees through December 31, 2010 as a percentage of the Fund's Liquidity Class shares average daily net assets at an annual rate of 0.10%, so that combined fees will not exceed 0.15%. There is no guarantee that this waiver will continue after December 31, 2010. The amount of the waiver is included in the fees waived by shareholder service provider on the Statement of Operations.

**  To the extent that the Liquidity Class shares of the Fund make payments pursuant to the Distribution Plan and/or the Servicing Plan, the combined total of such payments may not exceed, on an annual basis, 0.25% of the average daily net assets of the Fund's Liquidity Class shares.

Shareholder Administration Fees

The Trust has adopted shareholder administration plans ("Administration Plans") for the Trust Class and Institutional Class shares of the Fund. Under the Administration Plans, the Fund may pay servicing agents that have entered into a shareholder administration agreement with the Trust for certain shareholder support services that are provided to holders of the classes' shares. A substantial portion of the expenses incurred pursuant to these plans is paid to affiliates of BOA and the Distributor.

The annual rates in effect and plan limits, as a percentage of average daily net assets are as follows:

Administration Plans:   Current Rate   Plan Limit  
Trust Class shares     0.10 %     0.10 %  
Institutional Class shares     0.04 %     0.04 %  

 

Fee Waivers and Expense Reimbursements

BofA and/or some of the Fund's other service providers have contractually agreed to bear a portion of the Fund's expenses through December 31, 2010, so that the Fund's ordinary operating expenses (excluding any distribution, shareholder servicing and/or shareholder administration fees, interest, taxes and extraordinary expenses, but including custodian charges relating to overdrafts, if any) after giving effect to any balance credits from the Fund's custodian, do not exceed the annual rate of 0.20% of the Fund's average daily net assets. There is no guarantee that this expense limitation will continue after December 31, 2010.

The Distributor has voluntarily agreed to reimburse certain class-specific Fund expenses (consisting of shareholder servicing, distribution and shareholder administration fees, as


28



BofA Money Market Reserves, August 31, 2010

applicable) to the extent necessary in order to maintain a minimum annualized net yield of 0.00% for all classes of the Fund. In addition, BofA has voluntarily agreed to reimburse certain Fund expenses (consisting of advisory and administration fees) to the extent necessary to maintain such yield in the event the Distributor's reimbursement of class specific Fund expenses is fully utilized. These reimbursements are voluntary and may be modified or discontinued by the Distributor or BofA at any time.

BofA is entitled to recover from the Fund any fees waived and/or expenses reimbursed for a three year period following the date of such fee waiver and/or reimbursement if such recovery does not cause the Fund's total operating expenses to exceed the expense limitation in effect at the time of recovery. Under the Distribution Plans for the Liquidity Class shares, the Trust is currently not reimbursing the Distributor for distribution expenses for Liquidity Class shares. Unreimbursed expenses incurred by the Distributor in a given year may not be recovered by the Distributor in subsequent years.

At August 31, 2010, the amounts potentially recoverable by BofA pursuant to this arrangement are as follows:

Amount of potential recovery expiring August 31:   Total
potential
  Amount recovered
during the year
 
2013   2012   2011   recovery   ended 8/31/10  
$ 8,091,801     $ 9,587,709     $ 12,625,233     $ 30,304,743     $    

 

Fees Paid to Officers and Trustees

All officers of the Fund are employees of BofA or its affiliates and, with the exception of the Fund's Chief Compliance Officer, receive no compensation from the Fund. The Board of Trustees has appointed a Chief Compliance Officer to the Fund in accordance with federal securities regulations. The Fund, along with other affiliated funds, pays its pro-rata share of the expenses associated with the Chief Compliance Officer. The Fund's expenses for the Chief Compliance Officer will not exceed $15,000 per year.

Trustees are compensated for their services to the Fund, as set forth on the Statement of Operations. The Trust's eligible Trustees may participate in a non-qualified deferred compensation plan which may be terminated at any time. Any payments to plan participants are paid solely out of the Fund's assets. Income earned on the plan participant's deferral account is based on the rate of return of the eligible mutual funds selected by the participant or, if no funds are selected, on the rate of return of BofA Treasury Reserves, another portfolio of the Trust. The expense for the deferred compensation plan, which includes trustees' fees deferred during the current period as well as any gains or losses on the trustees' deferred compensation balances as a result of market fluctuations, is included in "Trustees' fees" on the Statement of Operations. The liability for the deferred compensation plan is included in "Trustees' fees" on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

As a result of a fund merger, the Fund assumed the liabilities of the deferred compensation plan of the acquired fund, which are included in "Trustees' deferred compensation plan" on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Any payments to plan participants are paid solely out of the Fund's assets.

Note 6. Custody Credits

The Fund has an agreement with its custodian bank under which custody fees may be reduced by balance credits. These credits are recorded as part of expense reductions on the Statement of Operations. The Fund could have invested a portion of the assets utilized in connection with the expense offset arrangement in an income-producing asset if it had not entered into such an agreement.

For the year ended August 31, 2010, these custody credits reduced total expenses by $2,291 for the Fund.

Note 7. Line of Credit

The Fund and other affiliated funds participate in a $200,000,000 uncommitted, unsecured line of credit provided by State Street. Borrowings are available for short-term liquidity or temporary or emergency purposes.


29



BofA Money Market Reserves, August 31, 2010

Effective December 16, 2009, interest is charged to each participating fund based on the fund's borrowings at a rate per annum equal to the greater of the Federal Funds Rate plus 1.25% or the overnight LIBOR Rate plus 1.25%. An annual administration fee of $10,000 is also accrued and apportioned to each fund participating in the line of credit based on the average net assets of the participating funds.

Prior to December 16, 2009, interest was charged to each participating fund based on the fund's borrowings at a rate per annum equal to the greater of the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.75% or the overnight LIBOR Rate plus 0.75%. A one-time structuring fee of $10,000 was also accrued and apportioned to each fund participating in the line of credit based on the average net assets of the participating funds.

For the year ended August 31, 2010, the Fund did not borrow under these arrangements.

Note 8. Shares of Beneficial Interest

As of August 31, 2010, 90.2% of the Fund's shares outstanding were beneficially owned by two participant accounts over which BOA and/or any of its affiliates had either sole or joint investment discretion.

As of August 31, 2010, no other shareholders owned more than 5% of the outstanding shares of the Fund.

Subscription and redemption activity of these accounts may have a significant effect on the operations of the Fund.

Note 9. Significant Risks and Contingencies Securities Risk

The Fund is subject to interest rate and credit risk. The value of debt securities may decline as interest rates increase. The Fund could lose money if the issuer of a fixed income security is unable to pay interest or repay principal when it is due. The Fund is subject to mortgage-related risk. The value of mortgage-backed securities can fall if the owners of the underlying mortgages default or pay off their mortgages sooner than expected, which could happen when interest rates fall, or pay off their mortgages later than expected, which could happen when interest rates rise.

The Fund is subject to asset-backed securities risk. Payment of interest and repayment of principal may be impacted by the cash flows generated by the assets backing these securities. The value of the Fund's asset-backed securities may also be affected by changes in interest rates, the availability of information concerning the interests in and structure of the pools of purchase contracts, financing leases or sales agreements that are represented by these securities, the creditworthiness of the underlying securities or the servicing agent for the pool, the originator of the loans or receivables, or the entities that provide any supporting letters of credit, surety bonds, or other credit enhancements.

United States Department of the Treasury Temporary Guarantee Program for Money Market Funds

On September 28, 2008, the United States Department of the Treasury (the "Treasury") opened a temporary guarantee program (the "Program") for money market mutual funds registered in the United States under the 1940 Act. On March 31, 2009, the Treasury announced the second extension of the Program from April 30, 2009 through September 18, 2009. The Program expired on September 18, 2009 and will not be further extended by the Treasury. Accordingly, effective September 18, 2009, the Program no longer provides any guarantee against any loss to shareholders with respect to the Fund's shares.

Under the Program, and subject to certain conditions and limitations, share amounts held by investors of the Fund as of the close of business on September 19, 2008 were guaranteed against loss in the event that the market-based net asset value per share was less than $0.995 (i.e., does not round to $1.00, a "guarantee event") and the Fund subsequently liquidated. The Program only covered the amount a shareholder held in the Fund as of the close of business on September 19, 2008, or the amount a shareholder held if and when a guarantee event occurred, whichever was less.

The Fund paid $7,941,309 to the Treasury to participate in the Program. This fee was expensed over the period from September 19, 2008 to September 18, 2009 and is an extraordinary item for calculating fee waivers and the expense reimbursement discussed in Note 4.

Legal Proceedings

BofA Advisors, LLC and BofA Distributors, Inc. (collectively, the BofA Group) are subject to a settlement agreement with the New York Attorney General (NYAG) (the NYAG Settlement)


30



BofA Money Market Reserves, August 31, 2010

and a settlement order with the SEC (the SEC Order) on matters relating to mutual fund trading, each dated February 9, 2005. Under the terms of the SEC Order, the BofA Group (or predecessor or affiliated entities) agreed, among other things, to: pay disgorgement and civil money penalties collectively totaling $375 million; cease and desist from violations of the antifraud provisions and certain other provisions of the federal securities laws; maintain certain compliance and ethics oversight structures; and retain an independent consultant to review the BofA Group's applicable supervisory, compliance, control and other policies and procedures. The NYAG Settlement, among other things, requires BofA Advisors, LLC and its affiliates to make certain disclosures to investors relating to expenses. In connection with the BofA Group providing services to the BofA Funds, the BofA Funds have voluntarily undertaken to implement certain governance measures designed to maintain the independence of their boards of trustees and certain special consulting and compliance measures.

Civil Litigation

In connection with the events that resulted in the NYAG Settlement and SEC Order, various parties filed suits against Bank of America Corporation and certain of its affiliates, including Banc of America Capital Management, LLC (BACAP, now known as BofA Advisors, LLC) and BACAP Distributors, LLC (now known as BofA Distributors, Inc.) (collectively BAC), Nations Funds Trust and its Board of Trustees. On February 20, 2004, the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation transferred these cases and cases against other mutual fund companies based on similar allegations to the United States District Court in Maryland for consolidated or coordinated pretrial proceedings (the MDL). Subsequently, additional related cases were transferred to the MDL. On September 29, 2004, the plaintiffs in the MDL filed amended and consolidated complaints. One of these amended complaints is a putative class action that includes claims under the federal securities laws and state common law, and that names Nations Funds Trust, its Trustees, BAC and others as defendants. Another of the amended complaints is a derivative action purportedly on behalf of the Nations Funds Trust against BAC and others that asserts claims under federal securities laws and state common law. Nations Funds Trust is a nominal defendant in this action. On February 25, 2005, BAC and other defendants filed motions to dismiss the claims in the pending cases. On December 15, 2005, BAC and others entered into a Stipulation of Settlement of the direct and derivative claims brought on behalf of the Nations Funds shareholders. That stipulation was amended on February 4, 2010. The settlement has been preliminarily approved by the court. A final approval hearing on the settlement is scheduled for October 21 and 22, 2010. If the settlement is approved, BAC would pay settlement administration costs and fees to plaintiffs' counsel as approved by the court.

Note 10. Market and Security Events

On November 21, 2007, Axon Financial Funding LLC ("Axon") experienced an "automatic liquidation event" as a result of a determination by Axon Asset Management, Inc., as investment manager of Axon, that the remaining assets of Axon were insufficient to fully repay certain liabilities of Axon.

On September 8, 2009, an affiliate of BofA purchased the Axon securities from the Fund. The purchase price of $233,923,725 was equal to the amortized cost (a price in excess of the security's then fair value) plus accrued interest receivable. As a result of this transaction, the Fund's Capital Support Agreement was terminated effective September 9, 2009, as discussed in Note 3.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Trustees of BofA Funds Series Trust and Shareholders of BofA Money Market Reserves (formerly Columbia Money Market Reserves, a series of Columbia Funds Series Trust)

In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the investment portfolio, and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of BofA Money Market Reserves (a series of BofA Funds Series Trust) (formerly Columbia Money Market Reserves, a series of Columbia Funds Series Trust) (the "Fund") at August 31, 2010, and the results of its operations, the changes in its net assets and the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as "financial statements") are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements 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 are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at August 31, 2010 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

President's Message

To Our Valued Shareholders:

Over the past year, the short-term debt markets continued their recovery from the worst effects of the global financial crisis, but even with that healing, the market environment was hardly hospitable for money market fund investors. The sovereign debt crisis in Europe, anemic economic growth globally and record low interest rates combined to present investors with some very difficult challenges.

At BofA Global Capital Management, we responded to those challenges by maintaining our focus on what is important to investors in the BofA Funds—principal preservation, a high degree of liquidity and achieving the best yields possible consistent with an emphasis on principal preservation and liquidity. To achieve those objectives, we employ sophisticated risk management processes and a conservative approach to security selection that we believe will better insulate our funds from market turbulence. Recognizing the importance of human capital to effective risk management, we have also strengthened our investment team by adding seasoned credit analysts and other talented professionals, whose insights we believe will better position us to manage portfolio risk.

The investments we made in our business—and by extension, in our clients—was an important component of our transition from the liquidity asset management arm of Columbia Management to BofA Global Capital Management. As you may know, Bank of America sold Columbia Management's equity and fixed income asset management businesses to Ameriprise Financial earlier this year. Bank of America elected to retain Columbia Management's liquidity asset management platform in part because of the importance of high-quality liquidity strategies to the bank's clients. We are pleased to report that we completed the transition of Columbia Management's liquidity asset management business to BofA Global Capital Management without disrupting Fund shareholders.

Unfortunately "disruption" was the operative word for the short-term debt markets during the past year. The deteriorating fiscal condition of many European governments raised concerns about the prospect of sovereign debt defaults and their impact on European financial institutions. The crisis, which some observers viewed as a threat to the viability of the European Union, had little direct impact on our funds' performance, as our conservative investment philosophy helped us limit our exposure to European bank debt. In the U.S., the Securities and Exchange Commission imposed new restrictions on the amount of investment risk the managers of money market funds can assume in order to make funds more stable during market crises. BofA Global Capital Management's money market funds were little affected by the SEC's mandates because we had adopted many of the requirements well in advance of their implementation dates.

Looking ahead, we can expect the challenging market environment to continue for the immediate future. The European debt crisis, while somewhat contained, has not been resolved completely and probably will not be until European governments adopt difficult structural reforms. In the United States, many states and municipalities face tough fiscal problems of their own due to declining tax revenues. Finally, record low interest rates continue to place heavy downward pressure on yields. In this environment, the best course of action for liquidity investors, in our view, is to pursue an investment program that emphasizes principal protection but also positions investors to benefit when rates begin to rise. We believe our focus on liquidity-oriented investment strategies, our experienced investment professionals and the resources available to us as part of one of the world's largest financial institutions make BofA Global Capital Management an ideal partner to help you navigate today's challenging markets. We look forward in the months ahead to demonstrating the value we can offer you, and we are grateful for the opportunity to have served you over the past year.

Sincerely,

Michael Pelzar
President, BofA Global Capital Management Group, LLC




Understanding Your ExpensesBofA Municipal Reserves

As a fund shareholder, you incur ongoing costs, which generally include investment advisory fees, distribution and service (Rule 12b-1) fees and other fund expenses. The information on this page is intended to help you understand the ongoing costs of investing in the fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

Analyzing your fund's expenses by share class

To illustrate these ongoing costs, we have provided an example and calculated the expenses paid by investors in each share class during the period. The information in the following table is based on an initial investment of $1,000, which is invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period. Expense information is calculated two ways and each method provides you with different information. The amount listed in the "Actual" column is calculated using the fund's actual operating expense ratios and actual total return for the period. The amount listed in the "Hypothetical" column for each share class also uses the fund's actual operating expense ratios but assumes that the return each year is 5% before expenses. You should not use the hypothetical account values and expenses to estimate either your actual account balance at the end of the period or the expenses you paid during the period.

Compare with other funds

Since all mutual funds are required to include the same hypothetical calculations about expenses in shareholder reports, you can use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the fund with other funds. To do so, compare the 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of other funds. As you compare hypothetical examples of other funds, it is important to note that hypothetical examples are meant to highlight the ongoing costs of investing in a fund.

Estimating your actual expenses

To estimate the expenses that you paid over the period, first you will need your account balance at the end of the period:

g  For shareholders who receive their account statements from Boston Financial Data Services, Inc., your account balance is available online at www.bofacapital.com or by calling Shareholder Services at 888.331.0904

g  For shareholders who receive their account statements from their financial intermediary, contact your financial intermediary to obtain your account balance.

1.  Divide your ending account balance by $1,000. For example, if an account balance was $8,600 at the end of the period, the result would be 8.6.

2.  In the section of the table below titled "Expenses paid during the period," locate the amount for your share class. You will find this number in the column labeled "Actual." Multiply this number by the result from step 1. Your answer is an estimate of the expenses you paid on your account during the period.

If the value of your account falls below the minimum initial investment requirement applicable to you, your account generally will be subject to an annual fee of up to $20. This fee is not included in the accompanying table. If you are subject to the fee, keep it in mind when you are estimating the ongoing expenses of investing in the fund and when comparing the expenses of this fund with other funds.

Expenses paid during the period are equal to the annualized expense ratio for the share class, multiplied by the average account value over the period, then multiplied by the number of days in the fund's most recent fiscal half-year and divided by 365.

Had the investment advisor and/or any of its affiliates not waived fees or reimbursed a portion of expenses, account value at the end of the period would have been reduced.

It is important to note that the expense amounts shown in the table are meant to highlight only ongoing costs of investing in the fund.

Notes to Financial StatementsBofA Municipal Reserves
August 31, 2010

Note 1. Organization

BofA Municipal Reserves (the "Fund"), formerly Columbia Municipal Reserves, a series of BofA Funds Series Trust (the "Trust"), is a diversified fund. The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end management investment company organized as a Delaware statutory trust.

As of the close of business on December 31, 2009, the Fund acquired all of the assets and liabilities of Columbia Municipal Reserves (the "Predecessor Fund"), a series of Columbia Funds Series Trust, pursuant to a reorganization. The reorganization qualified as a tax-free exchange for federal income tax purposes.

As part of the reorganization, each of the Predecessor Fund's share classes were reorganized into the corresponding share class of the Fund. Prior to the reorganization, the financial information of the Fund includes the financial information of the Predecessor Fund. The Predecessor Fund was organized as a separate series of Columbia Funds Series Trust, a Delaware statutory trust, and was registered under the 1940 Act as an open-end management investment company. The Fund is continuing the business, including carrying forward the financial and performance history, of the Predecessor Fund.

Investment Objective

The Fund seeks current income exempt from federal income tax, consistent with capital preservation and maintenance of a high degree of liquidity.

Fund Shares

The Trust may issue an unlimited number of shares, and the Fund offers eight classes of shares: Capital Class, Trust Class, Liquidity Class, Adviser Class, Investor Class, Daily Class, Class Z and Institutional Class shares. Each class of shares is offered continuously at net asset value.

Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Management has evaluated the events and transactions that have occurred through the date the financial statements were issued and noted no items requiring adjustment of the financial statements or additional disclosures. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements.

Security Valuation

Securities in the Fund are valued utilizing the amortized cost valuation method permitted in accordance with Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act provided certain conditions are met, including that the Fund's Board of Trustees continues to believe that the amortized cost valuation method fairly reflects the market-based net asset value per share of the Fund. This method involves valuing a portfolio security initially at its cost and thereafter assuming a constant accretion or amortization to maturity of any discount or premium, respectively. The Fund's Board of Trustees has established procedures intended to stabilize the Fund's net asset value for purposes of sales and redemptions at $1.00 per share. These procedures include determinations, at such intervals as the Board of Trustees deems appropriate and reasonable in light of current market conditions, of the extent, if any, to which the Fund's market-based net asset value deviates from $1.00 per share. In the event such deviation exceeds 1/2 of 1%, the Board of Trustees will promptly consider what action, if any, should be initiated.

GAAP establishes a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value giving the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical securities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements) when market prices are not readily available or reliable. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:

•  Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical securities

•  Level 2 – the Fund's assets assigned to the Level 2 input category represent certain short-term obligations which are valued using amortized cost, an income approach which converts future cash flows to


36



BofA Municipal Reserves, August 31, 2010

a present value based upon the discount or premium at purchase.

•  Level 3 – prices determined using significant unobservable inputs. In situations where quoted prices or observable inputs are unavailable or less reliable, unobservable inputs may be used. Unobservable inputs may include management's own assumptions about the factors market participants would use in pricing an investment.

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

On January 21, 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued an Accounting Standards Update (the "Amendment"), Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820): Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements, which provides guidance on how investment assets and liabilities are to be valued and disclosed. Specifically, the Amendment requires reporting entities to disclose the inputs and valuation techniques used to measure fair value for both recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements for Level 2 and Level 3 positions. The Amendment also requires that transfers between all levels (including Level 1 and Level 2) be disclosed on a gross basis (i.e., transfers out must be disclosed separately from transfers in), and requires disclosure of the reason(s) for the transfer. Additionally, purchases, sales, issuances and settlements must be disclosed on a gross basis in the Level 3 rollforward. The effective date of the Amendment is for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the requirement to provide the Level 3 activity for purchases, sales, issuances and settlements on a gross basis, which will be effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2010. At this time, management is evaluating the implications of the Amendment.

Security Transactions

Security transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Cost is determined and gains (losses) are based upon the specific identification method for both financial statement and federal income tax purposes.

Income Recognition

Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Premium and discount are amortized and accreted, respectively, on all debt securities, unless otherwise noted.

Expenses

General expenses of the Trust are allocated to the Fund and other series of the Trust based upon relative net assets or other expense allocation methodologies determined by the nature of the expense. Expenses directly attributable to the Fund are charged to the Fund.

Determination of Class Net Asset Value

All income, expenses (other than class-specific expenses, as shown on the Statement of Operations) and realized and unrealized gains (losses) are allocated to each class of the Fund on a daily basis for purposes of determining the net asset value of each class. Income and expenses are allocated to each class based on the settled shares method, while realized and unrealized gains (losses) are allocated based on the relative net assets of each class.

Federal Income Tax Status

The Fund intends to qualify each year as a "regulated investment company" under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended, and will distribute substantially all of its tax exempt or taxable income, if any, for its tax year, and as such will not be subject to federal income taxes. In addition, the Fund intends to distribute in each calendar year substantially all of its net investment income, capital gains and certain other amounts, if any, such that the Fund should not be subject to federal excise tax. Therefore, no federal income or excise tax provision is recorded.

Distributions to Shareholders

Distributions from net investment income, if any, are declared daily and paid monthly. Net realized capital gains, if any, are distributed at least annually after the fiscal year in which the capital gains were earned or more frequently to seek to maintain a net asset value of $1.00 per share, unless offset by any available capital loss carryforward. Income distributions and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP.


37



BofA Municipal Reserves, August 31, 2010

Indemnification

In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnities. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown because this would involve future claims against the Fund. Also, under the Trust's organizational documents and by contract, the Trustees and officers of the Trust are indemnified against certain liabilities that may arise out of actions relating to their duties to the Trust. However, based on experience, Management expects the risk of loss due to these representations, warranties and indemnities to be minimal.

Note 3. Federal Tax Information

The timing and character of income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. Reclassifications are made to the Fund's capital accounts for permanent tax differences to reflect income and gains available for distribution (or available capital loss carryforwards) under income tax regulations.

The tax character of distributions paid during the years ended August 31, 2010 and August 31, 2009 was as follows:

    August 31,  
Distributions paid from   2010   2009  
Tax-Exempt Income   $ 9,868,935     $ 80,160,483    
Ordinary Income*     729,858       2,574,913    
Long-Term Capital Gains              

 

*  For tax purposes short-term capital gain distributions, if any, are considered ordinary income distributions.

As of August 31, 2010, the components of distributable earnings on a tax basis were as follows:

Undistributed
Tax-Exempt
Income
  Undistributed
Ordinary
Income
  Undistributed
Long-Term
Capital Gains
 
$ 1,415,635     $     $    

 

The following capital loss carryforward, determined as of August 31, 2010, may be available to reduce taxable income arising from future net realized gains on investments, if any, to the extent permitted by the Internal Revenue Code:

Year of Expiration   Capital Loss
Carryforward
 
2017   $ 291,688    

 

Capital loss carryforwards of $138,576 were utilized by the Fund during the year ended August 31, 2010.

Management is required to determine whether a tax position of the Fund is more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by the applicable taxing authority, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefit to be recognized by the Fund is measured as the largest amount of benefit that is greater than fifty percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Management is not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months. However, management's conclusions may be subject to review and adjustment at a later date based on factors including, but not limited to, new tax laws, regulations, and administrative interpretations (including relevant court decisions). The Fund's federal tax returns for the prior three fiscal years remain subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service.

Note 4. Fees and Compensation Paid to Affiliates

Bank of America, N.A., an indirect parent company of Columbia Management Group, LLC ("Columbia") (now known as BofA Global Capital Management Group, LLC) entered into an agreement dated September 29, 2009, to sell a portion of the asset management business of Columbia to Ameriprise Financial, Inc. The transaction ("Transaction") included the sale of the part of the asset management business that advises long-term mutual funds, but did not include the sale of the part of the asset management business that advises the Fund. The transaction closed on May 1, 2010 (the "Closing"). Effective upon the Closing, the names of the Fund and its

Investment Advisory Fee

BofA Advisors, LLC ("BofA"), an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of Bank of America Corporation ("BOA"), provides investment advisory services to the Fund. BofA receives an investment advisory fee, calculated based on the combined average net assets of the Fund and certain other money market funds advised by BofA, at the following annual rates:

Average Daily Net Assets   Annual Fee Rates  
First $175 billion     0.15 %  
$175 billion to $225 billion     0.13 %  
Over $225 billion     0.08 %  

 

BofA has contractually agreed to limit the combined investment advisory fee and administration fee for the Fund to an annual rate of 0.19% of the Fund's average net assets through December 31, 2010. There is no guarantee that this expense limitation will continue after December 31, 2010.

For the year ended August 31, 2010, the Fund's annualized effective advisory fee rate, net of fee waivers, was 0.15% of the Fund's average daily net assets.

Administration Fee

BofA provides administrative and other services to the Fund for a monthly administration fee, calculated based on the combined average net assets of the Fund and certain other money market funds advised by BofA, at the following annual rates, less the fees payable by the Fund as described under the Pricing and Bookkeeping Fees note below:

Average Daily Net Assets   Annual Fee Rates  
First $125 billion     0.10 %  
$125 billion to $175 billion     0.05 %  
Over $175 billion     0.02 %  

 

Additionally, effective May 1, 2010, BofA has retained State Street Bank and Trust Company ("State Street") to provide certain sub-administration services under a Sub-Administration Agreement. BofA pays State Street a fee for all services received under the Sub-Administration Agreement.

Pricing and Bookkeeping Fees

Prior to May 1, 2010, the Trust had a Financial Reporting Services Agreement (the "Financial Reporting Services Agreement") with State Street Bank and BofA pursuant to which State Street provided financial reporting services to the Fund. Prior to May 1, 2010, the Trust had an Accounting Services Agreement (collectively with the Financial Reporting Services Agreement, the " Former State Street Agreements") with State Street and BofA pursuant to which State Street provided accounting services to the Fund. Effective May 1, 2010, the Trust entered into an amended and restated Financial Reporting Services Agreement and an amended and restated Accounting Services Agreement with State Street and BofA (the "Current State Street Agreements") pursuant to which State Street provides the Fund with services similar to those provided under the Former State Street Agreements. Under the Current State Street Agreements, the Fund pays State Street an annual fee of $38,000 paid monthly plus an additional monthly fee based on an annualized percentage rate of average daily net assets of the Fund for the month. The aggregate fee will not exceed $140,000 per year (exclusive of out-of-pocket expenses and charges). The Fund also reimburses State Street for certain out-of-pocket expenses and charges.

Prior to May 1, 2010, the Trust had a Pricing and Bookkeeping Oversight and Services Agreement (the "Services Agreement") with BofA. Under the Services Agreement, BofA provided services related to Fund expenses and the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, and provided oversight of the accounting and financial reporting services


39



BofA Municipal Reserves, August 31, 2010

provided by State Street. Under the Services Agreement, the Fund reimbursed BofA for out-of-pocket expenses and charges, including fees payable to third parties, such as for pricing the Fund's portfolio securities, incurred by BofA in the performance of services under the Services Agreement. The Services Agreement was terminated upon the Closing, and the services that were provided thereunder are covered under an amended and restated administration agreement with BofA.

Transfer Agent Fee

Prior to May 1, 2010, Columbia Management Services, Inc. (the "Former Transfer Agent"), an affiliate of BofA Global Capital Management Group, LLC ("BofA Global Capital Management") and an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of BOA, provided shareholder services to the Fund and had contracted with Boston Financial Data Services, Inc. ("BFDS" or the "Current Transfer Agent") to serve as sub-transfer agent. Effective January 1, 2010, the Former Transfer Agent was entitled to receive a fee for its services, paid monthly, at the annual rate of $22.36 per account plus reimbursement of certain sub-transfer agent fees paid by the Former Transfer Agent (exclusive of BFDS fees), calculated based on assets held in omnibus accounts and intended to recover the cost of payments to other parties (including affiliates of BOA) for services to those accounts. Prior to January 1, 2010, the annual rate was $17.34 per account. The Former Transfer Agent paid the fees of BFDS for services as sub-transfer agent and was not entitled to reimbursement for such fees from the Fund.

The Former Transfer Agent was also entitled to retain, as additional compensation for its services, fees for wire, telephone and redemption orders, Individual Retirement Account ("IRA") trustee agent fees and account transcript fees due to the Former Transfer Agent from shareholders of the Fund and credits (net of bank charges) earned with respect to balances in accounts the Former Transfer Agent maintained in connection with its services to the Fund. The Former Transfer Agent also received reimbursement for certain out-of-pocket expenses.

Effective May 1, 2010, the Current Transfer Agent acts as transfer agent for the Fund's shares. Under a transfer agency agreement with the Trust, the Current Transfer Agent provides transfer agency, dividend disbursing agency and shareholder servicing agency services to the Fund.

An annual minimum account balance fee of up to $20 may apply to certain accounts with a value below the Fund's minimum investment requirements to reduce the impact of small accounts on transfer agent fees. These minimum account balance fees are recorded as part of expense reductions on the Statement of Operations. For the year ended August 31, 2010, no minimum account balance fees were charged by the Fund.

Distribution and Service Fees

BofA Distributors, Inc. (the "Distributor"), an affiliate of BOA, is the principal underwriter of the Fund's shares.

The Trust has adopted distribution plans ("Distribution Plans") for the Liquidity Class, Investor Class, Daily Class and Class A shares of the Fund. The Distribution Plans, adopted pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act, permit the Fund to compensate or reimburse the Distributor and/or selling agents for activities or expenses primarily intended to result in the sale of the classes' shares.

The Trust also has adopted shareholder servicing plans ("Servicing Plans") for the Liquidity Class, Adviser Class, Investor Class and Daily Class shares of the Fund. The Servicing Plans permit the Fund to compensate or reimburse servicing agents for the shareholder services they have provided. A substantial portion of the expenses incurred pursuant to these plans is paid to affiliates of BOA and the Distributor.

The annual rates in effect and plan limits, as a percentage of average daily net assets are as follows:

Distribution Plans:   Current Rate
(after fee
waivers)
  Plan Limit  
Liquidity Class shares     0.15 %*     0.25 %**  
Investor Class shares     0.10 %     0.10 %  
Daily Class shares     0.35 %     0.35 %  
Servicing Plans:  
Liquidity Class shares     0.15 %*     0.25 %**  
Adviser Class shares     0.25 %     0.25 %  
Investor Class shares     0.25 %     0.25 %  
Daily Class shares     0.25 %     0.25 %  

 

*  The Distributor has contractually agreed to waive Distribution Plan fees and/or Servicing Plan fees through December 31, 2010 as a


40



BofA Municipal Reserves, August 31, 2010

percentage of the Fund's Liquidity Class shares average daily net assets at an annual rate of 0.10%, so that combined fees will not exceed 0.15%. There is no guarantee that this waiver will continue after December 31, 2010. The amount of the waiver is included in the fees waived by shareholder service provider on the Statement of Operations.

**  To the extent that the Liquidity Class shares of the Fund make payments pursuant to the Distribution Plan and/or the Servicing Plan, the combined total of such payments may not exceed, on an annual basis, 0.25% of the average daily net assets of the Fund's Liquidity Class shares.

Shareholder Administration Fees

The Trust has adopted shareholder administration plans ("Administration Plans") for the Trust Class and Institutional Class shares of the Fund. Under the Administration Plans, the Fund may pay servicing agents that have entered into a shareholder administration agreement with the Trust for certain shareholder support services that are provided to holders of the classes' shares. A substantial portion of the expenses incurred pursuant to these plans is paid to affiliates of BOA and the Distributor.

The annual rates in effect and plan limits, as a percentage of average daily net assets are as follows:

Administration Plans:   Current
Rate
  Plan
Limit
 
Trust Class shares     0.10 %     0.10 %  
Institutional Class shares     0.04 %     0.04 %  

 

Fee Waivers and Expense Reimbursements

BofA and/or some of the Fund's other service providers have contractually agreed to bear a portion of the Fund's expenses through December 31, 2010, so that the Fund's ordinary operating expenses (excluding any distribution, shareholder servicing and/or shareholder administration fees, interest, taxes and extraordinary expenses, but including custodian charges relating to overdrafts, if any) after giving effect to any balance credits from the Fund's custodian, do not exceed the annual rate of 0.20% of the Fund's average daily net assets. There is no guarantee that this expense limitation will continue after December 31, 2010.

The Distributor has voluntarily agreed to reimburse certain class-specific Fund expenses (consisting of shareholder servicing, distribution and shareholder administration fees, as applicable) to the extent necessary in order to maintain a minimum annualized net yield of 0.00% for all classes of the Fund. In addition, BofA has voluntarily agreed to reimburse certain Fund expenses (consisting of advisory and administration fees) to the extent necessary to maintain such yield in the event the Distributor's reimbursement of class-specific Fund expenses is fully utilized. These reimbursements are voluntary and may be modified or discontinued by the Distributor or BofA at any time.

BofA is entitled to recover from the Fund any fees waived and/or expenses reimbursed for a three year period following the date of such fee waiver and/or reimbursement if such recovery does not cause the Fund's total operating expenses to exceed the expense limitation in effect at the time of recovery. Under the Distribution Plans for the Liquidity Class shares, the Trust is currently not reimbursing the Distributor for distribution expenses for Liquidity Class shares.

Unreimbursed expenses incurred by the Distributor in a given year may not be recovered by the Distributor in subsequent years.

At August 31, 2010, the amounts potentially recoverable by BofA pursuant to this arrangement are as follows:

Amount of potential recovery expiring August 31,   Total
potential
  Amount recovered
during the year
 
2013   2012   2011   recovery   ended 8/31/10  
$ 4,775,827     $ 4,190,592     $ 4,288,091     $ 13,254,510     $

BofA Municipal Reserves, August 31, 2010

Fees Paid to Officers and Trustees

All officers of the Fund are employees of BofA or its affiliates and, with the exception of the Fund's Chief Compliance Officer, receive no compensation from the Fund. The Board of Trustees has appointed a Chief Compliance Officer to the Fund in accordance with federal securities regulations. The Fund, along with other affiliated funds, pays its pro-rata share of the expenses associated with the Chief Compliance Officer. The Fund's expenses for the Chief Compliance Officer will not exceed $15,000 per year.

Trustees are compensated for their services to the Fund, as set forth on the Statement of Operations.

The Trust's eligible Trustees may participate in a non-qualified deferred compensation plan which may be terminated at any time. Any payments to plan participants are paid solely out of the Fund's assets. Income earned on the plan participant's deferral account is based on the rate of return of the eligible mutual funds selected by the participant or, if no funds are selected, on the rate of return of BofA Treasury Reserves, another portfolio of the Trust. The expense for the deferred compensation plan, which includes trustees' fees deferred during the current period as well as any gains or losses on the trustees' deferred compensation balances as a result of market fluctuations, is included in "Trustees' fees" on the Statement of Operations. The liability for the deferred compensation plan is included in "Trustees' fees" on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

As a result of a fund merger, the Fund assumed the liabilities of the deferred compensation plan of the acquired fund, which are included in "Trustees' deferred compensation plan" on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Any payments to plan participants are paid solely out of the Fund's assets.

Note 5. Custody Credits

The Fund has an agreement with its custodian bank under which custody fees may be reduced by balance credits. These credits are recorded as part of expense reductions on the Statement of Operations. The Fund could have invested a portion of the assets utilized in connection with the expense offset arrangement in an income-producing asset if it had not entered into such an agreement.

For the year ended August 31, 2010, these custody credits reduced total expenses by $240 for the Fund.

Note 6. Line of Credit

The Fund and other affiliated funds participate in a $200,000,000 uncommitted, unsecured line of credit provided by State Street. Borrowings are available for short-term liquidity or temporary or emergency purposes.

Effective December 16, 2009, interest is charged to each participating fund based on the fund's borrowings at a rate per annum equal to the greater of the Federal Funds Rate plus 1.25% or the overnight LIBOR Rate plus 1.25%. An annual administration fee of $10,000 is also accrued and apportioned to each fund participating in the line of credit based on the average net assets of the participating funds.

Prior to December 16, 2009, interest was charged to each participating fund based on the fund's borrowings at a rate per annum equal to the greater of the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.75% or the overnight LIBOR Rate plus 0.75%. A one-time structuring fee of $10,000 was also accrued and apportioned to each fund participating in the line of credit based on the average net assets of the participating funds.

For the year ended August 31, 2010, the Fund did not borrow under these arrangements.

Note 7. Shares of Beneficial Interest

As of August 31, 2010, the Fund had three shareholders that collectively held 83.8% of the shares outstanding, over which BOA and/or any of its affiliates did not have investment discretion.

As of August 31, 2010, no other shareholders owned more than 5% of the outstanding shares of the Fund.

Subscription and redemption activity of these accounts may have A significant effect on the operations of the Fund.

Note 8. Significant Risks and Contingencies

United States Department of the Treasury Temporary Guarantee Program for Money Market Funds

On September 28, 2008, the United States Department of the Treasury (the "Treasury") opened a temporary guarantee program (the "Program") for money market mutual funds registered in the United States under the 1940 Act. On March 31, 2009, the Treasury announced the second extension


42



BofA Municipal Reserves, August 31, 2010

of the Program from April 30, 2009 through September 18, 2009. The Program expired on September 18, 2009 and will not be further extended by the Treasury. Accordingly, effective September 18, 2009, the Program no longer provides any guarantee against any loss to shareholders with respect to the Fund's shares.

Under the Program, and subject to certain conditions and limitations, share amounts held by investors of the Fund as of the close of business on September 19, 2008 were guaranteed against loss in the event that the market-based net asset value per share was less than $0.995 (i.e., does not round to $1.00, a "guarantee event") and the Fund subsequently liquidated. The Program only covered the amount a shareholder held in the Fund as of the close of business on September 19, 2008, or the amount a shareholder held if and when a guarantee event occurred, whichever was less.

The Fund paid $2,856,850 to the Treasury to participate in the Program. This fee was expensed over the period from September 19, 2008 to September 18, 2009 and is an extraordinary item for calculating fee waivers and expense reimbursement discussed in Note 4.

Legal Proceedings

BofA Advisors, LLC and BofA Distributors, Inc. (collectively, the BofA Group) are subject to a settlement agreement with the New York Attorney General (NYAG) (the NYAG Settlement) and a settlement order with the SEC (the SEC Order) on matters relating to mutual fund trading, each dated February 9, 2005. Under the terms of the SEC Order, the BofA Group (or predecessor or affiliated entities) agreed, among other things, to: pay disgorgement and civil money penalties collectively totaling $375 million; cease and desist from violations of the antifraud provisions and certain other provisions of the federal securities laws; maintain certain compliance and ethics oversight structures; and retain an independent consultant to review the BofA Group's applicable supervisory, compliance, control and other policies and procedures. The NYAG Settlement, among other things, requires BofA Advisors, LLC and its affiliates to make certain disclosures to investors relating to expenses. In connection with the BofA Group providing services to the BofA Funds, the BofA Funds have voluntarily undertaken to implement certain governance measures designed to maintain the independence of their boards of trustees and certain special consulting and compliance measures.

Civil Litigation

In connection with the events that resulted in the NYAG Settlement and SEC Order, various parties filed suits against Bank of America Corporation and certain of its affiliates, including Banc of America Capital Management, LLC (BACAP, now known as BofA Advisors, LLC) and BACAP Distributors, LLC (now known as BofA Distributors, Inc.) (collectively BAC), Nations Funds Trust and its Board of Trustees. On February 20, 2004, the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation transferred these cases and cases against other mutual fund companies based on similar allegations to the United States District Court in Maryland for consolidated or coordinated pretrial proceedings (the MDL). Subsequently, additional related cases were transferred to the MDL. On September 29, 2004, the plaintiffs in the MDL filed amended and consolidated complaints. One of these amended complaints is a putative class action that includes claims under the federal securities laws and state common law, and that names Nations Funds Trust, its Trustees, BAC and others as defendants. Another of the amended complaints is a derivative action purportedly on behalf of the Nations Funds Trust against BAC and others that asserts claims under federal securities laws and state common law. Nations Funds Trust is a nominal defendant in this action. On February 25, 2005, BAC and other defendants filed motions to dismiss the claims in the pending cases. On December 15, 2005, BAC and others entered into a Stipulation of Settlement of the direct and derivative claims brought on behalf of the Nations Funds shareholders. That stipulation was amended on February 4, 2010. The settlement has been preliminarily approved by the court. A final approval hearing on the settlement is scheduled for October 21 and 22, 2010. If the settlement is approved, BAC would pay settlement administration costs and fees to plaintiffs' counsel as approved by the court.

In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the investment portfolio, and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of BofA Municipal Reserves (a series of BofA Funds Series Trust) (formerly Columbia Municipal Reserves, a series of Columbia Funds Series Trust) (the "Fund") at August 31, 2010, and the results of its operations, the changes in its net assets and the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as "financial statements") are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements 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 are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at August 31, 2010 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

President's Message

To Our Valued Shareholders:

Over the past year, the short-term debt markets continued their recovery from the worst effects of the global financial crisis, but even with that healing, the market environment was hardly hospitable for money market fund investors. The sovereign debt crisis in Europe, anemic economic growth globally and record low interest rates combined to present investors with some very difficult challenges.

At BofA Global Capital Management, we responded to those challenges by maintaining our focus on what is important to investors in the BofA Funds—principal preservation, a high degree of liquidity and achieving the best yields possible consistent with an emphasis on principal preservation and liquidity. To achieve those objectives, we employ sophisticated risk management processes and a conservative approach to security selection that we believe will better insulate our funds from market turbulence. Recognizing the importance of human capital to effective risk management, we have also strengthened our investment team by adding seasoned credit analysts and other talented professionals, whose insights we believe will better position us to manage portfolio risk.

The investments we made in our business—and by extension, in our clients—was an important component of our transition from the liquidity asset management arm of Columbia Management to BofA Global Capital Management. As you may know, Bank of America sold Columbia Management's equity and fixed income asset management businesses to Ameriprise Financial earlier this year. Bank of America elected to retain Columbia Management's liquidity asset management platform in part because of the importance of high-quality liquidity strategies to the bank's clients. We are pleased to report that we completed the transition of Columbia Management's liquidity asset management business to BofA Global Capital Management without disrupting Fund shareholders.

Unfortunately "disruption" was the operative word for the short-term debt markets during the past year. The deteriorating fiscal condition of many European governments raised concerns about the prospect of sovereign debt defaults and their impact on European financial institutions. The crisis, which some observers viewed as a threat to the viability of the European Union, had little direct impact on our funds' performance, as our conservative investment philosophy helped us limit our exposure to European bank debt. In the U.S., the Securities and Exchange Commission imposed new restrictions on the amount of investment risk the managers of money market funds can assume in order to make funds more stable during market crises. BofA Global Capital Management's money market funds were little affected by the SEC's mandates because we had adopted many of the requirements well in advance of their implementation dates.

Looking ahead, we can expect the challenging market environment to continue for the immediate future. The European debt crisis, while somewhat contained, has not been resolved completely and probably will not be until European governments adopt difficult structural reforms. In the United States, many states and municipalities face tough fiscal problems of their own due to declining tax revenues. Finally, record low interest rates continue to place heavy downward pressure on yields. In this environment, the best course of action for liquidity investors, in our view, is to pursue an investment program that emphasizes principal protection but also positions investors to benefit when rates begin to rise. We believe our focus on liquidity-oriented investment strategies, our experienced investment professionals and the resources available to us as part of one of the world's largest financial institutions make BofA Global Capital Management an ideal partner to help you navigate today's challenging markets. We look forward in the months ahead to demonstrating the value we can offer you, and we are grateful for the opportunity to have served you over the past year.

Sincerely,

Michael Pelzar
President, BofA Global Capital Management Group, LLC




Understanding Your ExpensesBofA New York Tax-Exempt Reserves

As a fund shareholder, you incur ongoing costs, which generally include investment advisory fees, distribution and service (Rule 12b-1) fees and other fund expenses. The information on this page is intended to help you understand the ongoing costs of investing in the fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

Analyzing your fund's expenses by share class

To illustrate these ongoing costs, we have provided an example and calculated the expenses paid by investors in each share class during the period. The information in the following table is based on an initial investment of $1,000, which is invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period. Expense information is calculated two ways and each method provides you with different information. The amount listed in the "Actual" column is calculated using the fund's actual operating expense ratios and actual total return for the period. The amount listed in the "Hypothetical" column for each share class also uses the fund's actual operating ratios but assumes that the return each year is 5% before expenses. You should not use the hypothetical account values and expenses to estimate either your actual account balance at the end of the period or the expenses you paid during this period.

Compare with other funds

Since all mutual funds are required to include the same hypothetical calculations about expenses in shareholder reports, you can use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the fund with other funds. To do so, compare the 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of other funds. As you compare hypothetical examples of other funds, it is important to note that hypothetical examples are meant to highlight the ongoing costs of investing in a fund.

Estimating your actual expenses

To estimate the expenses that you paid over the period, first you will need your account balance at the end of the period:

g  For shareholders who receive their account statements from Boston Financial Data Services, Inc., your account balance is available online at www.bofacapital.com or by calling Shareholder Services at 888.331.0904

g  For shareholders who receive their account statements from their financial intermediary, contact your financial intermediary to obtain your account balance.

1.  Divide your ending account balance by $1,000. For example, if an account balance was $8,600 at the end of the period, the result would be 8.6.

2.  In the section of the table below titled "Expenses paid during the period," locate the amount for your share class. You will find this number in the column labeled "Actual." Multiply this number by the result from step 1. Your answer is an estimate of the expenses you paid on your account during the period.

If the value of your account falls below the minimum initial investment requirement applicable to you, your account generally will be subject to an annual fee of up to $20. This fee is not included in the accompanying table. If you are subject to the fee, keep it in mind when you are estimating the ongoing expenses of investing in the fund and when comparing the expenses of this fund with other funds.

Expenses paid during the period are equal to the annualized expense ratio for the share class, multiplied by the average account value over the period, then multiplied by the number of days in the fund's most recent fiscal half-year and divided by 365.

Had the investment advisor and/or any of its affiliates not waived fees or reimbursed a portion of expenses, account value at the end of the period would have been reduced.

It is important to note that the expense amounts shown in the table are meant to highlight only ongoing costs of investing in the fund.

Notes to Financial StatementsBofA New York Tax-Exempt Reserves
August 31, 2010

Note 1. Organization

BofA New York Tax-Exempt Reserves (the "Fund"), formerly Columbia New York Tax-Exempt Reserves, a series of BofA Funds Series Trust (the "Trust"), is a non-diversified fund. The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end management investment company organized as a Delaware statutory trust.

As of the close of business on December 31, 2009, the Fund acquired all of the assets and liabilities of Columbia New York Tax-Exempt Reserves (the "Predecessor Fund"), a series of Columbia Funds Series Trust, pursuant to a reorganization. The reorganization qualified as a tax-free exchange for federal income tax purposes.

As part of the reorganization, each of the Predecessor Fund's share classes were reorganized into the corresponding share class of the Fund. Prior to the reorganization, the financial information of the Fund includes the financial information of the Predecessor Fund. The Predecessor Fund was organized as a separate series of Columbia Funds Series Trust, a Delaware statutory trust, and was registered under the 1940 Act as an open-end management investment company. The Fund is continuing the business, including carrying forward the financial and performance history, of the Predecessor Fund.

Investment Objective

The Fund seeks current income exempt from federal income tax and New York individual income tax, consistent with capital preservation and maintenance of a high degree of liquidity.

Fund Shares

The Trust may issue an unlimited number of shares, and the Fund offers eight classes of shares: Capital Class, Trust Class, Adviser Class, Class A, Daily Class, Institutional Class, Retail A and G-Trust shares. Retail A and G-Trust shares are closed to new investors. Each class of shares is offered continuously at net asset value.

Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Management has evaluated the events and transactions that have occurred through the date the financial statements were issued and noted no items requiring adjustment of the financial statements or additional disclosures.

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements.

Security Valuation

Securities in the Fund are valued utilizing the amortized cost valuation method permitted in accordance with Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act provided certain conditions are met, including that the Fund's Board of Trustees continues to believe that the amortized cost valuation method fairly reflects the market-based net asset value per share of the Fund. This method involves valuing a portfolio security initially at its cost and thereafter assuming a constant accretion or amortization to maturity of any discount or premium, respectively. The Fund's Board of Trustees has established procedures intended to stabilize the Fund's net asset value for purposes of sales and redemptions at $1.00 per share. These procedures include determinations, at such intervals as the Board of Trustees deems appropriate and reasonable in light of current market conditions, of the extent, if any, to which the Fund's market based net asset value deviates from $1.00 per share. In the event such deviation exceeds 1/2 of 1%, the Board of Trustees will promptly consider what action, if any, should be initiated.

GAAP establishes a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value giving the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical securities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements) when


20



BofA New York Tax-Exempt Reserves, August 31, 2010

market prices are not readily available or reliable. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:

•  Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical securities

•  Level 2 – the Fund's assets assigned to the Level 2 input category represent certain short-term obligations which are valued using amortized cost, an income approach which converts future cash flows to a present value based upon the discount or premium at purchase.

•  Level 3 – prices determined using significant unobservable inputs. In situations where quoted prices or observable inputs are unavailable or less reliable, unobservable inputs may be used. Unobservable inputs may include management's own assumptions about the factors market participants would use in pricing an investment.

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

On January 21, 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued an Accounting Standards Update (the "Amendment"), Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820): Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements, which provides guidance on how investment assets and liabilities are to be valued and disclosed. Specifically, the Amendment requires reporting entities to disclose the inputs and valuation techniques used to measure fair value for both recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements for Level 2 and Level 3 positions. The Amendment also requires that transfers between all levels (including Level 1 and Level 2) be disclosed on a gross basis (i.e., transfers out must be disclosed separately from transfers in), and requires disclosure of the reason(s) for the transfer. Additionally, purchases, sales, issuances and settlements must be disclosed on a gross basis in the Level 3 rollforward. The effective date of the Amendment is for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the requirement to provide the Level 3 activity for purchases, sales, issuances and settlements on a gross basis, which will be effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2010. At this time, management is evaluating the implications of the Amendment.

Security Transactions

Security transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Cost is determined and gains (losses) are based upon the specific identification method for both financial statement and federal income tax purposes.

Income Recognition

Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Premium and discount are amortized and accreted, respectively, on all debt securities, unless otherwise noted.

Expenses

General expenses of the Trust are allocated to the Fund and other series of the Trust based upon relative net assets or other expense allocation methodologies determined by the nature of the expense. Expenses directly attributable to the Fund are charged to the Fund.

Determination of Class Net Asset Value

All income, expenses (other than class-specific expenses, as shown on the Statement of Operations) and realized and unrealized gains (losses) are allocated to each class of the Fund on a daily basis for purposes of determining the net asset value of each class. Income and expenses are allocated to each class based on the settled shares method, while realized and unrealized gains (losses) are allocated based on the relative net assets of each class.

Federal Income Tax Status

The Fund intends to qualify each year as a "regulated investment company" under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended, and will distribute substantially all of its tax exempt or taxable income, if any, for its tax year, and as such will not be subject to federal income taxes. In addition, the Fund intends to distribute in each calendar year substantially all of its net investment income, capital gains and certain other amounts, if any, such that the Fund should not be subject to federal excise tax. Therefore, no federal income or excise tax provision is recorded.

Distributions to Shareholders

Distributions from net investment income, if any, are declared daily and paid monthly. Net realized capital gains, if any, are


21



BofA New York Tax-Exempt Reserves, August 31, 2010

distributed at least annually after the fiscal year in which the capital gains were earned or more frequently to seek to maintain a net asset value of $1.00 per share, unless offset by any available capital loss carryforward. Income distributions and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP.

Indemnification

In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnities. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown because this would involve future claims against the Fund. Also, under the Trust's organizational documents and by contract, the Trustees and officers of the Trust are indemnified against certain liabilities that may arise out of actions relating to their duties to the Trust. However, based on experience, Management expects the risk of loss due to these representations, warranties and indemnities to be minimal.

Note 3. Federal Tax Information

The timing and character of income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. Reclassifications are made to the Fund's capital accounts for permanent tax differences to reflect income and gains available for distribution (or available capital loss carryforwards) under income tax regulations.

For the year ended August 31, 2010, permanent book and tax basis differences resulting primarily from differing treatments for distributions were identified and reclassified among the components of the Fund's net assets as follows:

Undistributed
Net Investment
Income
  Accumulated
Net Realized
Loss
  Paid-In Capital  
$ 42,093     $ (42,014 )   $ (79 )  

 

The tax character of distributions paid during the years ended August 31, 2010 and August 31, 2009 was as follows:

    August 31,  
Distributions paid from:   2010   2009  
Tax-Exempt Income   $ 359,467     $ 11,634,347    
Ordinary Income*     17,296       86,200    
Long-Term Capital Gains           59,243    

 

*  For tax purposes short-term capital gain distributions, if any, are considered ordinary income distributions.

As of August 31, 2010, the components of distributable earnings on a tax basis were as follows:

Undistributed
Tax-Exempt
Income
  Undistributed
Ordinary
Income
  Undistributed
Long-Term
Capital Gains
 
$ 223,244     $     $    

 

Management is required to determine whether a tax position of the Fund is more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by the applicable taxing authority, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefit to be recognized by the Fund is measured as the largest amount of benefit that is greater than fifty percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Management is not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months. However, management's conclusions may be subject to review and adjustment at a later date based on factors including, but not limited to, new tax laws, regulations, and administrative interpretations (including relevant court decisions). The Fund's federal tax returns for the prior three fiscal years remain subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service.

Investment Advisory Fee

BofA Advisors, LLC ("BofA"), an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of Bank of America Corporation ("BOA"), provides investment advisory services to the Fund. BofA receives a monthly investment advisory fee, calculated based on the combined average net asset of the Fund and certain other money market funds advised by BofA, at the following annual rates:

Average Daily Net Assets   Annual Fee Rates  
First $175 billion     0.15 %  
$175 billion to $225 billion     0.13 %  
Over $225 billion     0.08 %  

 

BofA has contractually agreed to limit the combined investment advisory fee and administration fee for the Fund to an annual rate of 0.19% of the Fund's average net assets through December 31, 2010. There is no guarantee that this expense limitation will continue after December 31, 2010.

For the year ended August 31, 2010, the Fund's annualized effective advisory fee rate, net of fee waivers, was 0.15% of the Fund's average daily net assets.

Administration Fee

BofA provides administrative and other services to the Fund for a monthly administration fee, calculated based on the combined average net assets of the Fund and certain other money market funds advised by BofA, at the following annual rates, less the fees payable by the Fund as described under the Pricing and Bookkeeping Fees note below:

Average Daily Net Assets   Annual Fee Rates  
First $125 billion     0.10 %  
$125 billion to $175 billion     0.05 %  
Over $175 billion     0.02 %  

 

Additionally, effective May 1, 2010, BofA has retained State Street Bank and Trust Company ("State Street") to provide certain sub-administration services under a Sub-Administration Agreement. BofA pays State Street a fee for all services received under the Sub-Administration Agreement.

Pricing and Bookkeeping Fees

Prior to May 1, 2010, the Trust had a Financial Reporting Services Agreement (the "Financial Reporting Services Agreement") with State Street Bank and BofA pursuant to which State Street provided financial reporting services to the Fund. Prior to May 1, 2010, the Trust had an Accounting Services Agreement (collectively with the Financial Reporting Services Agreement, the " Former State Street Agreements") with State Street and BofA pursuant to which State Street provided accounting services to the Fund. Effective May 1, 2010, the Trust entered into an amended and restated Financial Reporting Services Agreement and an amended and restated Accounting Services Agreement with State Street and BofA (the "Current State Street Agreements") pursuant to which State Street provides the Fund with services similar to those provided under the Former State Street Agreements. Under the Current State Street Agreements, the Fund pays State Street an annual fee of $38,000 paid monthly plus an additional monthly fee based on an annualized percentage rate of average daily net assets of the Fund for the month. The aggregate fee will not exceed $140,000 per year (exclusive of out-of-pocket expenses and charges). The Fund also reimburses State Street for certain out-of-pocket expenses and charges.


23



BofA New York Tax-Exempt Reserves, August 31, 2010

Prior to May 1, 2010, the Trust had a Pricing and Bookkeeping Oversight and Services Agreement (the "Services Agreement") with BofA. Under the Services Agreement, BofA provided services related to Fund expenses and the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, and provided oversight of the accounting and financial reporting services provided by State Street. Under the Services Agreement, the Fund reimbursed BofA for out-of-pocket expenses and charges, including fees payable to third parties, such as for pricing the Fund's portfolio securities, incurred by BofA in the performance of services under the Services Agreement. The Services Agreement was terminated upon the Closing, and the services that were provided thereunder are covered under an amended and restated administration agreement with BofA.

Transfer Agent Fee

Prior to May 1, 2010, Columbia Management Services, Inc. (the "Former Transfer Agent"), an affiliate of BofA Global Capital Management Group, LLC ("BofA Global Capital Management") and an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of BOA, provided shareholder services to the Fund and had contracted with Boston Financial Data Services, Inc. ("BFDS" or the "Current Transfer Agent") to serve as sub-transfer agent. Effective January 1, 2010, the Former Transfer Agent was entitled to receive a fee for its services, paid monthly, at the annual rate of $22.36 per account plus reimbursement of certain sub-transfer agent fees paid by the Former Transfer Agent (exclusive of BFDS fees), calculated based on assets held in omnibus accounts and intended to recover the cost of payments to other parties (including affiliates of BOA) for services to those accounts. Prior to January 1, 2010, the annual rate was $17.34 per account. The Former Transfer Agent paid the fees of BFDS for services as sub-transfer agent and was not entitled to reimbursement for such fees from the Fund.

The Former Transfer Agent was also entitled to retain, as additional compensation for its services, fees for wire, telephone and redemption orders, Individual Retirement Account ("IRA") trustee agent fees and account transcript fees due to the Former Transfer Agent from shareholders of the Fund and credits (net of bank charges) earned with respect to balances in accounts the Former Transfer Agent maintained in connection with its services to the Fund. The Former Transfer Agent also received reimbursement for certain out-of-pocket expenses.

Effective May 1, 2010, the Current Transfer Agent acts as transfer agent for the Fund's shares. Under a transfer agency agreement with the Trust, the Current Transfer Agent provides transfer agency, dividend disbursing agency and shareholder servicing agency services to the Fund.

An annual minimum account balance fee of up to $20 may apply to certain accounts with a value below the Fund's minimum investment requirements to reduce the impact of small accounts on transfer agent fees. These minimum account balance fees are recorded as part of expense reductions on the Statement of Operations. For the year ended August 31, 2010, no minimum account balance fees were charged by the Fund.

Distribution and Service Fees

BofA Distributors, Inc. (the "Distributor"), an affiliate of BofA, is the principal underwriter of the Fund's shares.

The Trust has adopted distribution plans ("Distribution Plans") for the Daily Class and Class A shares of the Fund. The Distribution Plans, adopted pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act, permit the Fund to compensate or reimburse the Distributor and/or selling agents for activities or expenses primarily intended to result in the sale of the classes' shares. The Trust also has adopted shareholder servicing plans ("Servicing Plans") for the Adviser Class, Daily Class, Class A and Retail A shares of the Fund. The Servicing Plans permit the Fund to compensate or reimburse servicing agents for the shareholder services they have provided.

A substantial portion of the expenses incurred pursuant to these plans is paid to affiliates of BOA and the Distributor. The annual rates in effect and plan limits, as a percentage of average daily net assets are as follows:

Distribution Plans:   Current Rate
(after fee
waivers)
  Plan Limit  
Daily Class shares     0.35 %     0.35 %  
Class A shares     0.10 %     0.10 %  
Servicing Plans:  
Adviser Class shares     0.25 %     0.25 %  
Daily Class shares     0.25 %     0.25 %  
Class A shares     0.25 %     0.25 %  
Retail A shares     0.10 %     0.10 %  

 


24



BofA New York Tax-Exempt Reserves, August 31, 2010

Shareholder Administration Fees

The Trust has adopted shareholder administration plans ("Administration Plans") for the Class A, Trust Class and Institutional Class shares of the Fund. Under the Administration Plans, the Fund may pay servicing agents that have entered into a shareholder administration agreement with the Trust for certain shareholder support services that are provided to holders of the classes' shares.

A substantial portion of the expenses incurred pursuant to these plans is paid to affiliates of BOA and the Distributor. The annual rates in effect and plan limits, as a percentage of average daily net assets are as follows:

Administration Plans:   Current
Rate
  Plan
Limit
 
Class A shares     0.10 %     0.10 %  
Trust Class shares     0.10 %     0.10 %  
Institutional Class shares     0.04 %     0.04 %  

 

Fee Waivers and Expense Reimbursements

BofA and/or some of the Fund's other service providers have contractually agreed to bear a portion of the Fund's expenses through December 31, 2010, so that the Fund's ordinary operating expenses (excluding any distribution, shareholder servicing and/or shareholder administration fees, interest, taxes and extraordinary expenses, but including custodian charges relating to overdrafts, if any) after giving effect to any balance credits from the Fund's custodian, do not exceed the annual rate of 0.20% of the Fund's average daily net assets. There is no guarantee that this expense limitation will continue after December 31, 2010.

The Distributor has voluntarily agreed to reimburse certain class-specific Fund expenses (consisting of shareholder servicing, distribution and shareholder administration fees, as applicable) to the extent necessary in order to maintain a minimum annualized net yield of 0.00% for all classes of the Fund. In addition, BofA has voluntarily agreed to reimburse certain Fund expenses (consisting of advisory and administration fees) to the extent necessary to maintain such yield in the event the Distributor's reimbursement of class specific Fund expenses is fully utilized. These reimbursements are voluntary and may be modified or discontinued by the Distributor or BofA at any time.

BofA is entitled to recover from the Fund any fees waived and/or expenses reimbursed for a three year period following the date of such fee waiver or reimbursement if such recovery does not cause the Fund's total operating expenses to exceed the expense limitation in effect at the time of recovery.

At August 31, 2010, the amounts potentially recoverable by BofA pursuant to this arrangement are as follows:

Amount of potential recovery expiring August 31:   Total
potential
  Amount recovered
during the year
 
2013   2012   2011   recovery   ended 08/31/10  
$ 695,321     $ 826,799     $ 605,663     $ 2,127,783     $    

 

Fees Paid to Officers and Trustees

All officers of the Fund are employees of BofA or its affiliates and, with the exception of the Fund's Chief Compliance Officer, receive no compensation from the Fund. The Board of Trustees has appointed a Chief Compliance Officer to the Fund in accordance with federal securities regulations. The Fund, along with other affiliated funds, pays its pro-rata share of the expenses associated with the Chief Compliance Officer. The Fund's expenses for the Chief Compliance Officer will not exceed $15,000 per year.

Trustees are compensated for their services to the Fund, as set forth on the Statement of Operations. The Trust's eligible Trustees may participate in a non-qualified deferred compensation plan which may be terminated at any time. Any payments to plan participants are paid solely out of the Fund's assets. Income earned on the plan participant's deferral account is based on the rate of return of the eligible mutual funds selected by the participant or, if no funds are selected, on the rate of return of BofA Treasury Reserves, another portfolio of the Trust. The expense for the deferred compensation plan, which includes trustees' fees deferred during the current period as well as any gains or losses on the trustees' deferred compensation balances as a result of market fluctuations, is included in "Trustees' fees" on the Statement of Operations. The liability for the deferred


25



BofA New York Tax-Exempt Reserves, August 31, 2010

compensation plan is included in "Trustees' fees" on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

As a result of a fund merger, the Fund assumed the liabilities of the deferred compensation plan of the acquired fund, which are included in "Trustees' deferred compensation plan" on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Any payments to plan participants are paid solely out of the Fund's assets.

Note 5. Custody Credits

The Fund has an agreement with its custodian bank under which custody fees may be reduced by balance credits. These credits are recorded as part of expense reductions on the Statement of Operations. The Fund could have invested a portion of the assets utilized in connection with the expense offset arrangement in an income-producing asset if it had not entered into such an agreement.

For the year ended August 31, 2010, these custody credits reduced total expenses by $26 for the Fund.

Note 6. Line of Credit

The Fund and other affiliated funds participate in a $200,000,000 uncommitted, unsecured line of credit provided by State Street. Borrowings are available for short-term liquidity or temporary or emergency purposes.

Effective December 16, 2009, interest is charged to each participating fund based on the fund's borrowings at a rate per annum equal to the greater of the Federal Funds Rate plus 1.25% or the overnight LIBOR Rate plus 1.25%. An annual administration fee of $10,000 is also accrued and apportioned to each fund participating in the line of credit based on the average net assets of the participating funds.

Prior to December 16, 2009, interest was charged to each participating fund based on the fund's borrowings at a rate per annum equal to the greater of the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.75% or the overnight LIBOR Rate plus 0.75%. A one-time structuring fee of $10,000 was also accrued and apportioned to each fund participating in the line of credit based on the average net assets of the participating funds.

For the year ended August 31, 2010, the Fund did not borrow under these arrangements.

Note 7. Shares of Beneficial Interest

As of August 31, 2010, two shareholder held 95.0% of the Fund's shares outstanding, over which BOA and/or any of its affiliates did not have investment discretion.

As of August 31, 2010, no other shareholders owned more than 5% of the outstanding shares of the Fund.

Subscription and redemption activity of this account may have a significant effect on the operations of the Fund.

Note 8. Significant Risks and Contingencies

Geographic Concentration Risk

The Fund had greater than 5% of its total net assets at August 31, 2010, invested in debt obligations issued by New York and its political subdivisions, agencies and public authorities. The Fund is more susceptible to economic and political factors adversely affecting issuers of this state's municipal securities than are municipal bond funds that are not concentrated to the same extent in these issuers.

United States Department of the Treasury Temporary Guarantee Program for Money Market Funds

On September 28, 2008, the United States Department of the Treasury (the "Treasury") opened a temporary guarantee program (the "Program") for money market mutual funds registered in the United States under the 1940 Act. On March 31, 2009, the Treasury announced the second extension of the Program from April 30, 2009 through September 18, 2009. The Program expired on September 18, 2009 and will not be further extended by the Treasury. Accordingly, effective September 18, 2009, the Program no longer provides any guarantee against any loss to shareholders with respect to the Fund's shares.

Under the Program, and subject to certain conditions and limitations, share amounts held by investors of the Fund as of the close of business on September 19, 2008 were guaranteed against loss in the event that the market-based net asset value per share was less than $0.995 (i.e., does not round to $1.00, a "guarantee event") and the Fund subsequently liquidated. The Program only covered the amount a shareholder held in the


26



BofA New York Tax-Exempt Reserves, August 31, 2010

Fund as of the close of business on September 19, 2008, or the amount a shareholder held if and when a guarantee event occurred, whichever was less.

The Fund paid $501,911 to the Treasury to participate in the Program. This fee was expensed over the period from September 19, 2008 to September 18, 2009 and is an extraordinary item for calculating fee waivers and expense reimbursement discussed in Note 4.

Legal Proceedings

BofA Advisors, LLC and BofA Distributors, Inc. (collectively, the BofA Group) are subject to a settlement agreement with the New York Attorney General (NYAG) (the NYAG Settlement) and a settlement order with the SEC (the SEC Order) on matters relating to mutual fund trading, each dated February 9, 2005. Under the terms of the SEC Order, the BofA Group (or predecessor or affiliated entities) agreed, among other things, to: pay disgorgement and civil money penalties collectively totaling $375 million; cease and desist from violations of the antifraud provisions and certain other provisions of the federal securities laws; maintain certain compliance and ethics oversight structures; and retain an independent consultant to review the BofA Group's applicable supervisory, compliance, control and other policies and procedures. The NYAG Settlement, among other things, requires BofA Advisors, LLC and its affiliates to make certain disclosures to investors relating to expenses. In connection with the BofA Group providing services to the BofA Funds, the BofA Funds have voluntarily undertaken to implement certain governance measures designed to maintain the independence of their boards of trustees and certain special consulting and compliance measures.

Civil Litigation

In connection with the events that resulted in the NYAG Settlement and SEC Order, various parties filed suits against Bank of America Corporation and certain of its affiliates, including Banc of America Capital Management, LLC (BACAP, now known as BofA Advisors, LLC) and BACAP Distributors, LLC (now known as BofA Distributors, Inc.) (collectively BAC), Nations Funds Trust and its Board of Trustees. On February 20, 2004, the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation transferred these cases and cases against other mutual fund companies based on similar allegations to the United States District Court in Maryland for consolidated or coordinated pretrial proceedings (the MDL). Subsequently, additional related cases were transferred to the MDL. On September 29, 2004, the plaintiffs in the MDL filed amended and consolidated complaints. One of these amended complaints is a putative class action that includes claims under the federal securities laws and state common law, and that names Nations Funds Trust, its Trustees, BAC and others as defendants. Another of the amended complaints is a derivative action purportedly on behalf of the Nations Funds Trust against BAC and others that asserts claims under federal securities laws and state common law. Nations Funds Trust is a nominal defendant in this action. On February 25, 2005, BAC and other defendants filed motions to dismiss the claims in the pending cases. On December 15, 2005, BAC and others entered into a Stipulation of Settlement of the direct and derivative claims brought on behalf of the Nations Funds shareholders. That stipulation was amended on February 4, 2010. The settlement has been preliminarily approved by the court. A final approval hearing on the settlement is scheduled for October 21 and 22, 2010. If the settlement is approved, BAC would pay settlement administration costs and fees to plaintiffs' counsel as approved by the court.

In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the investment portfolio, and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of BofA New York Tax-Exempt Reserves (a series of BofA Funds Series Trust) (formerly Columbia New York Tax-Exempt Reserves, a series of Columbia Funds Series Trust) (the "Fund") at August 31, 2010, and the results of its operations, the changes in its net assets and the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as "financial statements") are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements 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 are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at August 31, 2010 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

President's Message

To Our Valued Shareholders:

Over the past year, the short-term debt markets continued their recovery from the worst effects of the global financial crisis, but even with that healing, the market environment was hardly hospitable for money market fund investors. The sovereign debt crisis in Europe, anemic economic growth globally and record low interest rates combined to present investors with some very difficult challenges.

At BofA Global Capital Management, we responded to those challenges by maintaining our focus on what is important to investors in the BofA Funds—principal preservation, a high degree of liquidity and achieving the best yields possible consistent with an emphasis on principal preservation and liquidity. To achieve those objectives, we employ sophisticated risk management processes and a conservative approach to security selection that we believe will better insulate our funds from market turbulence. Recognizing the importance of human capital to effective risk management, we have also strengthened our investment team by adding seasoned credit analysts and other talented professionals, whose insights we believe will better position us to manage portfolio risk.

The investments we made in our business—and by extension, in our clients—was an important component of our transition from the liquidity asset management arm of Columbia Management to BofA Global Capital Management. As you may know, Bank of America sold Columbia Management's equity and fixed income asset management businesses to Ameriprise Financial earlier this year. Bank of America elected to retain Columbia Management's liquidity asset management platform in part because of the importance of high-quality liquidity strategies to the bank's clients. We are pleased to report that we completed the transition of Columbia Management's liquidity asset management business to BofA Global Capital Management without disrupting Fund shareholders.

Unfortunately "disruption" was the operative word for the short-term debt markets during the past year. The deteriorating fiscal condition of many European governments raised concerns about the prospect of sovereign debt defaults and their impact on European financial institutions. The crisis, which some observers viewed as a threat to the viability of the European Union, had little direct impact on our funds' performance, as our conservative investment philosophy helped us limit our exposure to European bank debt. In the U.S., the Securities and Exchange Commission imposed new restrictions on the amount of investment risk the managers of money market funds can assume in order to make funds more stable during market crises. BofA Global Capital Management's money market funds were little affected by the SEC's mandates because we had adopted many of the requirements well in advance of their implementation dates.

Looking ahead, we can expect the challenging market environment to continue for the immediate future. The European debt crisis, while somewhat contained, has not been resolved completely and probably will not be until European governments adopt difficult structural reforms. In the United States, many states and municipalities face tough fiscal problems of their own due to declining tax revenues. Finally, record low interest rates continue to place heavy downward pressure on yields. In this environment, the best course of action for liquidity investors, in our view, is to pursue an investment program that emphasizes principal protection but also positions investors to benefit when rates begin to rise. We believe our focus on liquidity-oriented investment strategies, our experienced investment professionals and the resources available to us as part of one of the world's largest financial institutions make BofA Global Capital Management an ideal partner to help you navigate today's challenging markets. We look forward in the months ahead to demonstrating the value we can offer you, and we are grateful for the opportunity to have served you over the past year.

Sincerely,

Michael Pelzar
President, BofA Global Capital Management Group, LLC




Understanding Your ExpensesBofA Tax-Exempt Reserves

As a fund shareholder, you incur ongoing costs, which generally include investment advisory fees, distribution and service (Rule 12b-1) fees and other fund expenses. The information on this page is intended to help you understand the ongoing costs of investing in the fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

Analyzing your fund's expenses by share class

To illustrate these ongoing costs, we have provided an example and calculated the expenses paid by investors in each share class during the period. The information in the following table is based on an initial investment of $1,000, which is invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period. Expense information is calculated two ways and each method provides you with different information. The amount listed in the "Actual" column is calculated using the fund's actual operating expense ratios and actual total return for the period. The amount listed in the "Hypothetical" column for each share class also uses the fund's actual operating expense ratios but assumes that the return each year is 5% before expenses. You should not use the hypothetical account values and expenses to estimate either your actual account balance at the end of the period or the expenses you paid during the period.

Compare with other funds

Since all mutual funds are required to include the same hypothetical calculations about expenses in shareholder reports, you can use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the fund with other funds. To do so, compare the 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of other funds. As you compare hypothetical examples of other funds, it is important to note that hypothetical examples are meant to highlight the ongoing costs of investing in a fund.

Estimating your actual expenses

To estimate the expenses that you paid over the period, first you will need your account balance at the end of the period:

g  For shareholders who receive their account statements from Boston Financial Data Services, Inc., your account balance is available online at www.bofacapital.com or by calling Shareholder Services at 888.331.0904

g  For shareholders who receive their account statements from their financial intermediary, contact your financial intermediary to obtain your account balance.

1.  Divide your ending account balance by $1,000. For example, if an account balance was $8,600 at the end of the period, the result would be 8.6.

2.  In the section of the table below titled "Expenses paid during the period," locate the amount for your share class. You will find this number in the column labeled "Actual." Multiply this number by the result from step 1. Your answer is an estimate of the expenses you paid on your account during the period.

If the value of your account falls below the minimum initial investment requirement applicable to you, your account generally will be subject to an annual fee of up to $20. This fee is not included in the accompanying table. If you are subject to the fee, keep it in mind when you are estimating the ongoing expenses of investing in the fund and when comparing the expenses of this fund with other funds.

Expenses paid during the period are equal to the annualized expense ratio for the share class, multiplied by the average account value over the period, then multiplied by the number of days in the fund's most recent fiscal half-year and divided by 365.

Had the investment advisor and/or any of its affiliates not waived fees or reimbursed a portion of expenses, account value at the end of the period would have been reduced.

It is important to note that the expense amounts shown in the table are meant to highlight only ongoing costs of investing in the fund.

Notes to Financial StatementsBofA Tax-Exempt Reserves
August 31, 2010

Note 1. Organization

BofA Tax-Exempt Reserves (the "Fund"), formerly Columbia Tax-Exempt Reserves, a series of BofA Funds Series Trust (the "Trust"), is a diversified fund. The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end management investment company organized as a Delaware statutory trust.

As of the close of business on December 31, 2009, the Fund acquired all of the assets and liabilities of Columbia Tax-Exempt Reserves (the "Predecessor Fund"), a series of Columbia Funds Series Trust, pursuant to a reorganization. The reorganization qualified as a tax-free exchange for federal income tax purposes.

As part of the reorganization, each of the Predecessor Fund's share classes were reorganized into the corresponding share class of the Fund. Prior to the reorganization, the financial information of the Fund includes the financial information of the Predecessor Fund. The Predecessor Fund was organized as a separate series of Columbia Funds Series Trust, a Delaware statutory trust, and was registered under the 1940 Act as an open-end management investment company. The Fund is continuing the business, including carrying forward the financial and performance history, of the Predecessor Fund.

Investment Objective

The Fund seeks current income exempt from federal income tax, consistent with capital preservation and maintenance of a high degree of liquidity.

Fund Shares

The Trust may issue an unlimited number of shares, and the Fund offers ten classes of shares: Capital Class, Trust Class, Liquidity Class, Adviser Class, Investor Class, Daily Class, Class A, Institutional Class, Retail A and G-Trust shares. Retail A and G-Trust shares are closed to new investors. Each class of shares is offered continuously at net asset value.

Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Management has evaluated the events and transactions that have occurred through the date the financial statements were issued and noted no items requiring adjustment of the financial statements or additional disclosures.

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements.

Security Valuation

Securities in the Fund are valued utilizing the amortized cost valuation method permitted in accordance with Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act provided certain conditions are met, including that the Fund's Board of Trustees continues to believe that the amortized cost valuation method fairly reflects the market-based net asset value per share of the Fund. This method involves valuing a portfolio security initially at its cost and thereafter assuming a constant accretion or amortization to maturity of any discount or premium, respectively. The Fund's Board of Trustees has established procedures intended to stabilize the Fund's net asset value for purposes of sales and redemptions at $1.00 per share. These procedures include determinations, at such intervals as the Board of Trustees deems appropriate and reasonable in light of current market conditions, of the extent, if any, to which the Fund's market based net asset value deviates from $1.00 per share. In the event such deviation exceeds 1/2 of 1%, the Board of Trustees will promptly consider what action, if any, should be initiated.

GAAP establishes a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value giving the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical securities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements) when market prices are not readily available or reliable. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:

•  Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical securities


41



BofA Tax-Exempt Reserves, August 31, 2010

•  Level 2 – the Fund's assets assigned to the Level 2 input category represent certain short-term obligations which are valued using amortized cost, an income approach which converts future cash flows to a present value based upon the discount or premium at purchase.

•  Level 3 – prices determined using significant unobservable inputs. In situations where quoted prices or observable inputs are unavailable or less reliable, unobservable inputs may be used. Unobservable inputs may include management's own assumptions about the factors market participants would use in pricing an investment.

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

On January 21, 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued an Accounting Standards Update (the "Amendment"), Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820): Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements, which provides guidance on how investment assets and liabilities are to be valued and disclosed. Specifically, the Amendment requires reporting entities to disclose the inputs and valuation techniques used to measure fair value for both recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements for Level 2 and Level 3 positions. The Amendment also requires that transfers between all levels (including Level 1 and Level 2) be disclosed on a gross basis (i.e., transfers out must be disclosed separately from transfers in), and requires disclosure of the reason(s) for the transfer. Additionally, purchases, sales, issuances and settlements must be disclosed on a gross basis in the Level 3 rollforward. The effective date of the Amendment is for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the requirement to provide the Level 3 activity for purchases, sales, issuances and settlements on a gross basis, which will be effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2010. At this time, management is evaluating the implications of the Amendment.

Security Transactions

Security transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Cost is determined and gains (losses) are based upon the specific identification method for both financial statement and federal income tax purposes.

Income Recognition

Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Premium and discount are amortized and accreted, respectively, on all debt securities, unless otherwise noted.

Expenses

General expenses of the Trust are allocated to the Fund and other series of the Trust based upon relative net assets or other expense allocation methodologies determined by the nature of the expense. Expenses directly attributable to the Fund are charged to the Fund.

Determination of Class Net Asset Value

All income, expenses (other than class-specific expenses, as shown on the Statement of Operations) and realized and unrealized gains (losses) are allocated to each class of the Fund on a daily basis for purposes of determining the net asset value of each class. Income and expenses are allocated to each class based on the settled shares method, while realized and unrealized gains (losses) are allocated based on the relative net assets of each class.

Federal Income Tax Status

The Fund intends to qualify each year as a "regulated investment company" under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended, and will distribute substantially all of its tax exempt or taxable income, if any, for its tax year, and as such will not be subject to federal income taxes. In addition, the Fund intends to distribute in each calendar year substantially all of its net investment income, capital gains and certain other amounts, if any, such that the Fund should not be subject to federal excise tax. Therefore, no federal income or excise tax provision is recorded.

Distributions to Shareholders

Distributions from net investment income, if any, are declared daily and paid monthly. Net realized capital gains, if any, are distributed at least annually after the fiscal year in which the capital gains were earned or more frequently to seek to maintain a net asset value of $1.00 per share, unless offset by any available capital loss carryforward. Income distributions and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP.


42



BofA Tax-Exempt Reserves, August 31, 2010

Indemnification

In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnities. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown because this would involve future claims against the Fund. Also, under the Trust's organizational documents and by contract, the Trustees and officers of the Trust are indemnified against certain liabilities that may arise out of actions relating to their duties to the Trust. However, based on experience, Management expects the risk of loss due to these representations, warranties and indemnities to be minimal.

Note 3. Federal Tax Information

The timing and character of income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. Reclassifications are made to the Fund's capital accounts for permanent tax differences to reflect income and gains available for distribution (or available capital loss carryforwards) under income tax regulations.

For the year ended August 31, 2010, permanent book and tax basis differences resulting primarily from differing treatments for distributions were identified and reclassified among the components of the Fund's net assets as follows:

Undistributed
Net Investment
Income
  Accumulated
Net Realized
Loss
  Paid-In Capital  
$ 307,592     $ (299,543 )   $ (8,049 )  

 

The tax character of distributions paid during the years ended August 31, 2010 and August 31, 2009 was as follows:

    August 31,  
Distributions paid from   2010   2009  
Tax-Exempt Income   $ 6,257,975     $ 127,807,009    
Ordinary Income*     286,548       1,821,288    
Long-Term Capital Gains     20,401       76,531    

 

*  For tax purposes short-term capital gain distributions, if any, are considered ordinary income distributions.

As of August 31, 2010, the components of distributable earnings on a tax basis were as follows:

Undistributed
Tax-Exempt
Income
  Undistributed
Ordinary
Income
  Undistributed
Long-Term
Capital Gains
 
$ 1,347,915     $     $    

 

Management is required to determine whether a tax position of the Fund is more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by the applicable taxing authority, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefit to be recognized by the Fund is measured as the largest amount of benefit that is greater than fifty percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Management is not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months. However, management's conclusions may be subject to review and adjustment at a later date based on factors including, but not limited to, new tax laws, regulations, and administrative interpretations (including relevant court decisions). The Fund's federal tax returns for the prior three fiscal years remain subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service.

Note 4. Fees and Compensation Paid to Affiliates

Bank of America, N.A., an indirect parent company of Columbia Management Group, LLC ("Columbia") (now known as BofA Global Capital Management, LLC), entered into an agreement dated September 29, 2009, to sell a portion of the asset management business of Columbia to Ameriprise Financial, Inc. The transaction ("Transaction") included the sale of the part of the asset management business that advises long-term mutual funds, but did not include the sale of the part of the asset management business that advises the Fund. The transaction closed on May 1, 2010 (the "Closing"). Effective upon the Closing, the names of the Fund and its

Investment Advisory Fee

BofA Advisors, LLC ("BofA"), an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of Bank of America Corporation ("BOA"), provides investment advisory services to the Fund. BofA receives a monthly investment advisory fee, calculated based on the combined average net assets of the Fund and certain other money market funds advised by BofA, at the following annual rates:

Average Daily Net Assets   Annual Fee Rates  
First $175 billion     0.15 %  
$175 billion to $225 billion     0.13 %  
Over $225 billion     0.08 %  

 

BofA has contractually agreed to limit the combined investment advisory fee and administration fee for the Fund to an annual rate of 0.19% of the Fund's average net assets through December 31, 2010. There is no guarantee that this expense limitation will continue after December 31, 2010.

For the year ended August 31, 2010, the Fund's annualized effective advisory fee rate, net of fee waivers, was 0.15% of the Fund's average daily net assets.

Administration Fee

BofA provides administrative and other services to the Fund for a monthly administration fee, calculated based on the combined average net assets of the Fund and certain other money market funds advised by BofA, at the following annual rates, less the fees payable by the Fund as described under the Pricing and Bookkeeping Fees note below:

Average Daily Net Assets   Annual Fee Rates  
First $125 billion     0.10 %  
$125 billion to $175 billion     0.05 %  
Over $175 billion     0.02 %  

 

Additionally, effective May 1, 2010, BofA has retained State Street Bank and Trust Company ("State Street") to provide certain sub-administration services under a Sub-Administration Agreement. BofA pays State Street a fee for all services received under the Sub-Administration Agreement.

Pricing and Bookkeeping Fees

Prior to May 1, 2010, the Trust had a Financial Reporting Services Agreement (the "Financial Reporting Services Agreement") with State Street Bank and BofA pursuant to which State Street provided financial reporting services to the Fund. Prior to May 1, 2010, the Trust had an Accounting Services Agreement (collectively with the Financial Reporting Services Agreement, the " Former State Street Agreements") with State Street and BofA pursuant to which State Street provided accounting services to the Fund. Effective May 1, 2010, the Trust entered into an amended and restated Financial Reporting Services Agreement and an amended and restated Accounting Services Agreement with State Street and BofA (the "Current State Street Agreements") pursuant to which State Street provides the Fund with services similar to those provided under the Former State Street Agreements. Under the Current State Street Agreements, the Fund pays State Street an annual fee of $38,000 paid monthly plus an additional monthly fee based on an annualized percentage rate of average daily net assets of the Fund for the month. The aggregate fee will not exceed $140,000 per year (exclusive of out-of-pocket expenses and charges). The Fund also reimburses State Street for certain out-of-pocket expenses and charges.

Prior to May 1, 2010, the Trust had a Pricing and Bookkeeping Oversight and Services Agreement (the "Services Agreement") with BofA. Under the Services Agreement, BofA provided services related to Fund expenses and the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, and provided oversight of the accounting and financial reporting services provided by State Street. Under the Services Agreement, the


44



BofA Tax-Exempt Reserves, August 31, 2010

Fund reimbursed BofA for out-of-pocket expenses and charges, including fees payable to third parties, such as for pricing the Fund's portfolio securities, incurred by BofA in the performance of services under the Services Agreement. The Services Agreement was terminated upon the Closing, and the services that were provided thereunder are covered under an amended and restated administration agreement with BofA.

Transfer Agent Fee

Prior to May 1, 2010, Columbia Management Services, Inc. (the "Former Transfer Agent"), an affiliate of BofA Global Capital Management Group, LLC ("BofA Global Capital Management") and an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of BOA, provided shareholder services to the Fund and had contracted with Boston Financial Data Services, Inc. ("BFDS" or the "Current Transfer Agent") to serve as sub-transfer agent. Effective January 1, 2010, the Former Transfer Agent was entitled to receive a fee for its services, paid monthly, at the annual rate of $22.36 per account plus reimbursement of certain sub-transfer agent fees paid by the Former Transfer Agent (exclusive of BFDS fees), calculated based on assets held in omnibus accounts and intended to recover the cost of payments to other parties (including affiliates of BOA) for services to those accounts. Prior to January 1, 2010, the annual rate was $17.34 per account. The Former Transfer Agent paid the fees of BFDS for services as sub-transfer agent and was not entitled to reimbursement for such fees from the Fund.

The Former Transfer Agent was also entitled to retain, as additional compensation for its services, fees for wire, telephone and redemption orders, Individual Retirement Account ("IRA") trustee agent fees and account transcript fees due to the Former Transfer Agent from shareholders of the Fund and credits (net of bank charges) earned with respect to balances in accounts the Former Transfer Agent maintained in connection with its services to the Fund. The Former Transfer Agent also received reimbursement for certain out-of-pocket expenses.

Effective May 1, 2010, the Current Transfer Agent acts as transfer agent for the Fund's shares. Under a transfer agency agreement with the Trust, the Current Transfer Agent provides transfer agency, dividend disbursing agency and shareholder servicing agency services to the Fund.

An annual minimum account balance fee of up to $20 may apply to certain accounts with a value below the Fund's minimum investment requirements to reduce the impact of small accounts on transfer agent fees. These minimum account balance fees are recorded as part of expense reductions on the Statement of Operations. For the year ended August 31, 2010, no minimum account balance fees were charged by the Fund.

Distribution and Service Fees

BofA Distributors, Inc. (the "Distributor"), an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of BOA, is the principal underwriter of the Fund's shares.

The Trust has adopted distribution plans ("Distribution Plans") for the Liquidity Class, Investor Class, Daily Class and Class A shares of the Fund. The Distribution Plans, adopted pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act, permit the Fund to compensate or reimburse the Distributor and/or selling agents for activities or expenses primarily intended to result in the sale of the classes' shares.

The Trust also has adopted shareholder servicing plans ("Servicing Plans") for the Liquidity Class, Adviser Class, Investor Class, Daily Class, Class A and Retail A shares of the Fund. The Servicing Plans permit the Fund to compensate or reimburse servicing agents for the shareholder services they have provided.

A substantial portion of the expenses incurred pursuant to these plans is paid to affiliates of BOA and the Distributor. The annual rates in effect and plan limits, as a percentage of average daily net assets are as follows:

Distribution Plans:   Current Rate
(after fee
waivers)
  Plan Limit  
Liquidity Class shares     0.15 %*     0.25 %**  
Investor Class shares     0.10 %     0.10 %  
Daily Class shares     0.35 %     0.35 %  
Class A shares     0.10 %     0.10 %  
Servicing Plans:  
Liquidity Class shares     0.15 %*     0.25 %**  
Adviser Class shares     0.25 %     0.25 %  
Investor Class shares     0.25 %     0.25 %  
Daily Class shares     0.25 %     0.25 %  
Class A shares     0.25 %     0.25 %  
Retail A shares     0.09 %     0.09 %  

 

*  The Distributor has contractually agreed to waive Distribution Plan fees and/or Servicing Plan fees through December 31, 2010 as a percentage of the Fund's Liquidity Class shares average daily


45



BofA Tax-Exempt Reserves, August 31, 2010

net assets at an annual rate of 0.10%, so that combined fees will not exceed 0.15%. There is no guarantee that this waiver will continue after December 31, 2010. The amount of the waiver is included in the fees waived by shareholder service provider on the Statement of Operations.

**  To the extent that the Liquidity Class shares of the Fund make payments pursuant to the Distribution Plan and/or the Servicing Plan, the combined total of such payments may not exceed, on an annual basis, 0.25% of the average daily net assets of the Fund's Liquidity Class shares.

Shareholder Administration Fees

The Trust has adopted shareholder administration plans ("Administration Plans") for the Class A, Trust Class and Institutional Class shares of the Fund. Under the Administration Plans, the Fund may pay servicing agents that have entered into a shareholder administration agreement with the Trust for certain shareholder support services that are provided to holders of the classes' shares.

A substantial portion of the expenses incurred pursuant to these plans is paid to affiliates of BOA and the Distributor. The annual rates in effect and plan limits, as a percentage of average daily net assets are as follows:

Administration Plans:   Current Rate   Plan Limit  
Class A shares     0.10 %     0.10 %  
Trust Class shares     0.10 %     0.10 %  
Institutional Class shares     0.04 %     0.04 %  

 

Fee Waivers and Expense Reimbursements

BofA and/or some of the Fund's other service providers have contractually agreed to bear a portion of the Fund's expenses through December 31, 2010, so that the Fund's ordinary operating expenses (excluding any distribution, shareholder servicing and/or shareholder administration fees, interest, taxes and extraordinary expenses, but including custodian charges relating to overdrafts, if any) after giving effect to any balance credits from the Fund's custodian, do not exceed the annual rate of 0.20% of the Fund's average daily net assets. There is no guarantee that this expense limitation will continue after December 31, 2010.

The Distributor has voluntarily agreed to reimburse certain class-specific Fund expenses (consisting of shareholder servicing, distribution and shareholder administration fees, as applicable) to the extent necessary in order to maintain a minimum annualized net yield of 0.00% for all classes of the Fund. In addition, BofA has voluntarily agreed to reimburse certain Fund expenses (consisting of advisory and administration fees) to the extent necessary to maintain such yield in the event the Distributor's reimbursement of class specific Fund expenses is fully utilized. These reimbursements are voluntary and may be modified or discontinued by the Distributor or BofA at any time.

BofA is entitled to recover from the Fund any fees waived and/or expenses reimbursed for a three year period following the date of such fee waiver and/or reimbursement if such recovery does not cause the Fund's total operating expenses to exceed the expense limitation in effect at the time of recovery.

Under the Distribution Plan for the Liquidity Class shares, the Trust is currently not reimbursing the Distributor for distribution expenses for Liquidity Class shares. Unreimbursed expenses incurred by the Distributor in a given year may not be recovered by the Distributor in subsequent years.

At August 31, 2010, the amounts potentially recoverable by BofA pursuant to this arrangement are as follows:

Amount of potential recovery expiring August 31:   Total
potential
  Amount recovered
during the year
 
2013   2012   2011   recovery   ended 8/31/10  
$ 4,982,935     $ 6,391,950     $ 4,855,011     $ 16,229,896     $    

 

Fees Paid to Officers and Trustees

All officers of the Fund are employees of BofA or its affiliates and, with the exception of the Fund's Chief Compliance Officer, receive no compensation from the Fund. The Board of Trustees has appointed a Chief Compliance Officer to the Fund in accordance with federal securities regulations. The Fund, along with other affiliated funds, pays its pro-rata share of the expenses associated with the Chief Compliance Officer. The Fund's expenses for the Chief Compliance Officer will not exceed $15,000 per year.


46



BofA Tax-Exempt Reserves, August 31, 2010

Trustees are compensated for their services to the Fund, as set forth on the Statement of Operations. The Trust's eligible Trustees may participate in a non-qualified deferred compensation plan which may be terminated at any time. Any payments to plan participants are paid solely out of the Fund's assets. Income earned on the plan participant's deferral account is based on the rate of return of the eligible mutual funds selected by the participant or, if no funds are selected, on the rate of return of BofA Treasury Reserves, another portfolio of the Trust. The expense for the deferred compensation plan, which includes trustees' fees deferred during the current period as well as any gains or losses on the trustees' deferred compensation balances as a result of market fluctuations, is included in "Trustees' fees" on the Statement of Operations. The liability for the deferred compensation plan is included in "Trustees' fees" on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

As a result of a fund merger, the Fund assumed the liabilities of the deferred compensation plan of the acquired fund, which are included in "Trustees' deferred compensation plan" on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Any payments to plan participants are paid solely out of the Fund's assets.

Note 5. Custody Credits

The Fund has an agreement with its custodian bank under which custody fees may be reduced by balance credits. These credits are recorded as part of expense reductions on the Statement of Operations. The Fund could have invested a portion of the assets utilized in connection with the expense offset arrangement in an income-producing asset if it had not entered into such an agreement.

For the year ended August 31, 2010, these custody credits reduced total expenses by $248 for the Fund.

Note 6. Line of Credit

The Fund and other affiliated funds participate in a $200,000,000 uncommitted, unsecured line of credit provided by State Street. Borrowings are available for short-term liquidity or temporary or emergency purposes.

Effective December 16, 2009, interest is charged to each participating fund based on the fund's borrowings at a rate per annum equal to the greater of the Federal Funds Rate plus 1.25% or the overnight LIBOR Rate plus 1.25%. An annual administration fee of $10,000 is also accrued and apportioned to each fund participating in the line of credit based on the average net assets of the participating funds.

Prior to December 16, 2009, interest was charged to each participating fund based on the fund's borrowings at a rate per annum equal to the greater of the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.75% or the overnight LIBOR Rate plus 0.75%. A one-time structuring fee of $10,000 was also accrued and apportioned to each fund participating in the line of credit based on the average net assets of the participating funds.

For the year ended August 31, 2010, the Fund did not borrow under these arrangements.

Note 7. Shares of Beneficial Interest

As of August 31, 2010, 93.6% of the Fund's shares outstanding were beneficially owned by two participant accounts over which BOA and/or any of its affiliates had either sole or joint investment discretion.

As of August 31, 2010, no other shareholders owned more than 5% of the outstanding shares of the Fund. Subscription and redemption activity of these accounts may have a significant effect on the operations of the Fund.

Note 8. Significant Risks and Contingencies United States Department of the Treasury Temporary Guarantee Program for Money Market Funds

On September 28, 2008, the United States Department of the Treasury (the "Treasury") opened a temporary guarantee program (the "Program") for money market mutual funds registered in the United States under the 1940 Act. On March 31, 2009, the Treasury announced the second extension of the Program from April 30, 2009 through September 18, 2009. The Program expired on September 18, 2009 and will not be further extended by the Treasury. Accordingly, effective September 18, 2009, the Program no longer provides any guarantee against any loss to shareholders with respect to the Fund's shares.

Under the Program, and subject to certain conditions and limitations, share amounts held by investors of the Fund as of the close of business on September 19, 2008 were guaranteed against loss in the event that the market-based net asset value per share was less than $0.995 (i.e., does not round to $1.00, a "guarantee event") and the Fund subsequently liquidated. The

BofA Tax-Exempt Reserves, August 31, 2010

Program only covered the amount a shareholder held in the Fund as of the close of business on September 19, 2008, or the amount a shareholder held if and when a guarantee event occurred, whichever was less.

The Fund paid $4,273,568 to the Treasury to participate in the Program. This fee was expensed over the period from September 19, 2008 to September 18, 2009 and is an extraordinary item for calculating fee waivers and expense reimbursement discussed in Note 4.

Legal Proceedings

BofA Advisors, LLC and BofA Distributors, Inc. (collectively, the BofA Group) are subject to a settlement agreement with the New York Attorney General (NYAG) (the NYAG Settlement) and a settlement order with the SEC (the SEC Order) on matters relating to mutual fund trading, each dated February 9, 2005. Under the terms of the SEC Order, the BofA Group (or predecessor or affiliated entities) agreed, among other things, to: pay disgorgement and civil money penalties collectively totaling $375 million; cease and desist from violations of the antifraud provisions and certain other provisions of the federal securities laws; maintain certain compliance and ethics oversight structures; and retain an independent consultant to review the BofA Group's applicable supervisory, compliance, control and other policies and procedures. The NYAG Settlement, among other things, requires BofA Advisors, LLC and its affiliates to make certain disclosures to investors relating to expenses. In connection with the BofA Group providing services to the BofA Funds, the BofA Funds have voluntarily undertaken to implement certain governance measures designed to maintain the independence of their boards of trustees and certain special consulting and compliance measures.

Civil Litigation

In connection with the events that resulted in the NYAG Settlement and SEC Order, various parties filed suits against Bank of America Corporation and certain of its affiliates, including Banc of America Capital Management, LLC (BACAP, now known as BofA Advisors, LLC) and BACAP Distributors, LLC (now known as BofA Distributors, Inc.) (collectively BAC), Nations Funds Trust and its Board of Trustees. On February 20, 2004, the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation transferred these cases and cases against other mutual fund companies based on similar allegations to the United States District Court in Maryland for consolidated or coordinated pretrial proceedings (the MDL). Subsequently, additional related cases were transferred to the MDL. On September 29, 2004, the plaintiffs in the MDL filed amended and consolidated complaints. One of these amended complaints is a putative class action that includes claims under the federal securities laws and state common law, and that names Nations Funds Trust, its Trustees, BAC and others as defendants. Another of the amended complaints is a derivative action purportedly on behalf of the Nations Funds Trust against BAC and others that asserts claims under federal securities laws and state common law. Nations Funds Trust is a nominal defendant in this action. On February 25, 2005, BAC and other defendants filed motions to dismiss the claims in the pending cases. On December 15, 2005, BAC and others entered into a Stipulation of Settlement of the direct and derivative claims brought on behalf of the Nations Funds shareholders. That stipulation was amended on February 4, 2010. The settlement has been preliminarily approved by the court. A final approval hearing on the settlement is scheduled for October 21 and 22, 2010. If the settlement is approved, BAC would pay settlement administration costs and fees to plaintiffs' counsel as approved by the court.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Trustees of BofA Funds Series Trust and Shareholders of BofA Tax-Exempt Reserves (formerly Columbia Tax-Exempt Reserves, a series of Columbia Funds Series Trust)

In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the investment portfolio, and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of BofA Tax-Exempt Reserves (a series of BofA Funds Series Trust) (formerly Columbia Tax-Exempt Reserves, a series of Columbia Funds Series Trust) (the "Fund") at August 31, 2010, and the results of its operations, the changes in its net assets and the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as "financial statements") are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements 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 are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at August 31, 2010 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

President's Message

To Our Valued Shareholders:

Over the past year, the short-term debt markets continued their recovery from the worst effects of the global financial crisis, but even with that healing, the market environment was hardly hospitable for money market fund investors. The sovereign debt crisis in Europe, anemic economic growth globally and record low interest rates combined to present investors with some very difficult challenges.

At BofA Global Capital Management, we responded to those challenges by maintaining our focus on what is important to investors in the BofA Funds—principal preservation, a high degree of liquidity and achieving the best yields possible consistent with an emphasis on principal preservation and liquidity. To achieve those objectives, we employ sophisticated risk management processes and a conservative approach to security selection that we believe will better insulate our funds from market turbulence. Recognizing the importance of human capital to effective risk management, we have also strengthened our investment team by adding seasoned credit analysts and other talented professionals, whose insights we believe will better position us to manage portfolio risk.

The investments we made in our business—and by extension, in our clients—was an important component of our transition from the liquidity asset management arm of Columbia Management to BofA Global Capital Management. As you may know, Bank of America sold Columbia Management's equity and fixed income asset management businesses to Ameriprise Financial earlier this year. Bank of America elected to retain Columbia Management's liquidity asset management platform in part because of the importance of high-quality liquidity strategies to the bank's clients. We are pleased to report that we completed the transition of Columbia Management's liquidity asset management business to BofA Global Capital Management without disrupting Fund shareholders.

Unfortunately "disruption" was the operative word for the short-term debt markets during the past year. The deteriorating fiscal condition of many European governments raised concerns about the prospect of sovereign debt defaults and their impact on European financial institutions. The crisis, which some observers viewed as a threat to the viability of the European Union, had little direct impact on our funds' performance, as our conservative investment philosophy helped us limit our exposure to European bank debt. In the U.S., the Securities and Exchange Commission imposed new restrictions on the amount of investment risk the managers of money market funds can assume in order to make funds more stable during market crises. BofA Global Capital Management's money market funds were little affected by the SEC's mandates because we had adopted many of the requirements well in advance of their implementation dates.

Looking ahead, we can expect the challenging market environment to continue for the immediate future. The European debt crisis, while somewhat contained, has not been resolved completely and probably will not be until European governments adopt difficult structural reforms. In the United States, many states and municipalities face tough fiscal problems of their own due to declining tax revenues. Finally, record low interest rates continue to place heavy downward pressure on yields. In this environment, the best course of action for liquidity investors, in our view, is to pursue an investment program that emphasizes principal protection but also positions investors to benefit when rates begin to rise. We believe our focus on liquidity-oriented investment strategies, our experienced investment professionals and the resources available to us as part of one of the world's largest financial institutions make BofA Global Capital Management an ideal partner to help you navigate today's challenging markets. We look forward in the months ahead to demonstrating the value we can offer you, and we are grateful for the opportunity to have served you over the past year.

Sincerely,

Michael Pelzar
President, BofA Global Capital Management Group, LLC




Understanding Your ExpensesBofA Treasury Reserves

As a fund shareholder, you incur ongoing costs, which generally include investment advisory fees, distribution and service (Rule 12b-1) fees and other fund expenses. The information on this page is intended to help you understand the ongoing costs of investing in the fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

Analyzing your fund's expenses by share class

To illustrate these ongoing costs, we have provided an example and calculated the expenses paid by investors in each share class during the period. The information in the following table is based on an initial investment of $1,000, which is invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period. Expense information is calculated two ways and each method provides you with different information. The amount listed in the "Actual" column is calculated using the fund's actual operating expense ratios and actual total return for the period. The amount listed in the "Hypothetical" column for each share class also uses the fund's actual operating expense ratios but assumes that the return each year is 5% before expenses. You should not use the hypothetical account values and expenses to estimate either your actual account balance at the end of the period or the expenses you paid during the period.

Compare with other funds

Since all mutual funds are required to include the same hypothetical calculations about expenses in shareholder reports, you can use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the fund with other funds. To do so, compare the 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of other funds. As you compare hypothetical examples of other funds, it is important to note that hypothetical examples are meant to highlight the ongoing costs of investing in a fund.

Estimating your actual expenses

To estimate the expenses that you paid over the period, first you will need your account balance at the end of the period:

g  For shareholders who receive their account statements from Boston Financial Data Services, Inc., your account balance is available online at www.bofacapital.com or by calling Shareholder Services at 888.331.0904

g  For shareholders who receive their account statements from their financial intermediary, contact your financial intermediary to obtain your account balance.

1.  Divide your ending account balance by $1,000. For example, if an account balance was $8,600 at the end of the period, the result would be 8.6.

2.  In the section of the table below titled "Expenses paid during the period," locate the amount for your share class. You will find this number in the column labeled "Actual." Multiply this number by the result from step 1. Your answer is an estimate of the expenses you paid on your account during the period.

If the value of your account falls below the minimum initial investment requirement applicable to you, your account generally will be subject to an annual fee of up to $20. This fee is not included in the accompanying table. If you are subject to the fee, keep it in mind when you are estimating the ongoing expenses of investing in the fund and when comparing the expenses of this fund with other funds.

Expenses paid during the period are equal to the annualized expense ratio for the share class, multiplied by the average account value over the period, then multiplied by the number of days in the fund's most recent fiscal half-year and divided by 365.

Had the investment advisor and/or any of its affiliates not waived fees or reimbursed a portion of expenses, account value at the end of the period would have been reduced.

It is important to note that the expense amounts shown in the table are meant to highlight only ongoing costs of investing in the fund.

Notes to Financial StatementsBofA Treasury Reserves
August 31, 2010

Note 1. Organization

BofA Treasury Reserves (the "Fund"), formerly Columbia Treasury Reserves, a series of BofA Funds Series Trust (the "Trust"), is a diversified fund. The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end management investment company organized as a Delaware statutory trust.

As of the close of business on December 31, 2009, the Fund acquired all of the assets and liabilities of Columbia Treasury Reserves (the "Predecessor Fund"), a series of Columbia Funds Series Trust, pursuant to a reorganization. The reorganization qualified as a tax-free exchange for federal income tax purposes.

As part of the reorganization, each of the Predecessor Fund's share classes were reorganized into the corresponding share class of the Fund. Prior to the reorganization, the financial information of the Fund includes the financial information of the Predecessor Fund. The Predecessor Fund was organized as a separate series of Columbia Funds Series Trust, a Delaware statutory trust, and was registered under the 1940 Act as an open-end management investment company. The Fund is continuing the business, including carrying forward the financial and performance history, of the Predecessor Fund.

Investment Objective

The Fund seeks current income, consistent with capital preservation and maintenance of a high degree of liquidity.

Fund Shares

The Trust may issue an unlimited number of shares, and the Fund offers eight classes of shares: Capital Class, Trust Class, Liquidity Class, Adviser Class, Investor Class, Daily Class, Class A, and Institutional Class shares. Each class of shares is offered continuously at net asset value. The Fund is closed to purchases by new investors and new accounts.

Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Management has evaluated the events and transactions that have occurred through the date the financial statements were issued and noted no items requiring adjustment of the financial statements or additional disclosures.

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements.

Security Valuation

Securities in the Fund are valued utilizing the amortized cost valuation method permitted in accordance with Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act provided certain conditions are met, including that the Fund's Board of Trustees continues to believe that the amortized cost valuation method fairly reflects the market-based net asset value per share of the Fund. This method involves valuing a portfolio security initially at its cost and thereafter assuming a constant accretion or amortization to maturity of any discount or premium, respectively. The Fund's Board of Trustees has established procedures intended to stabilize the Fund's net asset value for purposes of sales and redemptions at $1.00 per share. These procedures include determinations, at such intervals as the Board of Trustees deems appropriate and reasonable in light of current market conditions, of the extent, if any, to which the Fund's market based net asset value deviates from $1.00 per share. In the event such deviation exceeds 1/2 of 1%, the Board of Trustees will promptly consider what action, if any, should be initiated.

GAAP establishes a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value giving the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical securities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements) when market prices are not readily available or reliable. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:

•  Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical securities

•  Level 2 – the Fund's assets assigned to the Level 2 input category represent certain short-term obligations which are valued using amortized cost,


19



BofA Treasury Reserves, August 31, 2010

an income approach which converts future cash flows to a present value based upon the discount or premium at purchase.

•  Level 3 – prices determined using significant unobservable inputs. In situations where quoted prices or observable inputs are unavailable or less reliable, unobservable inputs may be used. Unobservable inputs may include management's own assumptions about the factors market participants would use in pricing an investment.

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

On January 21, 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued an Accounting Standards Update (the "Amendment"), Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820): Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements, which provides guidance on how investment assets and liabilities are to be valued and disclosed. Specifically, the Amendment requires reporting entities to disclose the inputs and valuation techniques used to measure fair value for both recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements for Level 2 and Level 3 positions. The Amendment also requires that transfers between all levels (including Level 1 and Level 2) be disclosed on a gross basis (i.e., transfers out must be disclosed separately from transfers in), and requires disclosure of the reason(s) for the transfer. Additionally, purchases, sales, issuances and settlements must be disclosed on a gross basis in the Level 3 rollforward. The effective date of the Amendment is for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the requirement to provide the Level 3 activity for purchases, sales, issuances and settlements on a gross basis, which will be effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2010. At this time, management is evaluating the implications of the Amendment.

Security Transactions

Security transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Cost is determined and gains (losses) are based upon the specific identification method for both financial statement and federal income tax purposes.

Repurchase Agreements

The Fund may engage in repurchase agreement transactions with institutions that BofA Advisors, LLC ("BofA"), the Fund's investment advisor, has determined are creditworthy. The Fund, through its custodian, receives delivery of the underlying securities collateralizing a repurchase agreement. BofA is responsible for determining that the collateral is at least equal, at all times, to the value of the repurchase obligation including interest. A repurchase agreement transaction involves certain risks in the event of default or insolvency of the counterparty. These risks include possible delays in or restrictions on the Fund's ability to dispose of the underlying securities and a possible decline in the value of the underlying securities during the period while the Fund seeks to assert its rights.

Income Recognition

Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Premium and discount are amortized and accreted, respectively, on all debt securities, unless otherwise noted.

Expenses

General expenses of the Trust are allocated to the Fund and other series of the Trust based upon relative net assets or other expense allocation methodologies determined by the nature of the expense. Expenses directly attributable to the Fund are charged to the Fund.

Determination of Class Net Asset Value

All income, expenses (other than class-specific expenses, as shown on the Statement of Operations) and realized and unrealized gains (losses) are allocated to each class of the Fund on a daily basis for purposes of determining the net asset value of each class. Income and expenses are allocated to each class based on the settled shares method, while realized and unrealized gains (losses) are allocated based on the relative net assets of each class.

Federal Income Tax Status

The Fund intends to qualify each year as a "regulated investment company" under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended, and will distribute substantially all of its taxable income, if any, for its tax year, and as such will not be subject to federal income taxes. In addition, the


20



BofA Treasury Reserves, August 31, 2010

Fund intends to distribute in each calendar year substantially all of its net investment income, capital gains and certain other amounts, if any, such that the Fund should not be subject to federal excise tax. Therefore, no provision is made for federal income or excise taxes.

Distributions to Shareholders

Distributions from net investment income, if any, are declared daily and paid monthly. Net realized capital gains, if any, are distributed at least annually after the fiscal year in which the capital gains were earned or more frequently to seek to maintain a net asset value of $1.00 per share, unless offset by any available capital loss carryforward. Income distributions and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP.

Indemnification

In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnities. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown because this would involve future claims against the Fund. Also, under the Trust's organizational documents and by contract, the Trustees and officers of the Trust are indemnified against certain liabilities that may arise out of actions relating to their duties to the Trust. However, based on experience, Management expects the risk of loss due to these representations, warranties and indemnities to be minimal.

Note 3. Federal Tax Information

The timing and character of income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. Reclassifications are made to the Fund's capital accounts for permanent tax differences to reflect income and gains available for distribution (or available capital loss carryforwards) under income tax regulations.

For the year ended August 31, 2010, permanent book and tax basis differences resulting primarily from differing treatments for distributions were identified and reclassified among the components of the Fund's net assets as follows:

Undistributed
Net Investment
Income
  Accumulated
Net Realized Loss
  Paid-In Capital  
$ 17,986     $ 20,714     $ (38,700 )  

 

The tax character of distributions paid during the years ended August 31, 2010 and August 31, 2009 was as follows:

    August 31,  
Distributions paid from:   2010   2009  
Ordinary Income*   $ 207,720     $ 47,961,357    

 

*  For tax purposes short-term capital gain distributions, if any, are considered ordinary income distributions.

The following capital loss carryforwards, determined as of August 31, 2010, may be available to reduce taxable income arising from future net realized gains on investments, if any, to the extent permitted by the Internal Revenue Code:

Year of Expiration   Capital Loss
Carryforwards
 
2011   $ 7,012    
2012     422,339    
2013     711,196    
2014     514,185    
Total   $ 1,654,732    

 

Capital loss carryforwards of $20,714 expired for the Fund during the year ended August 31, 2010.

Management is required to determine whether a tax position of the Fund is more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by the applicable taxing authority, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefit to be recognized by the Fund is measured as the largest amount of benefit that is greater than fifty percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Management is not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change


21



BofA Treasury Reserves, August 31, 2010

in the next twelve months. However, management's conclusions may be subject to review and adjustment at a later date based on factors including, but not limited to, new tax laws, regulations, and administrative interpretations (including relevant court decisions). The Fund's federal tax returns for the prior three fiscal years remain subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service.

Note 4. Fees and Compensation Paid to Affiliates

Bank of America, N.A., an indirect parent company of Columbia Management Advisors, LLC ("Columbia") (now known as BofA Global Capital Management Group, LLC), entered into an agreement dated September 29, 2009, to sell a portion of the asset management business of Columbia to Ameriprise Financial, Inc. The transaction ("Transaction") included the sale of the part of the asset management business that advises long-term mutual funds, but did not include the sale of the part of the asset management business that advises the Fund. The transaction closed on May 1, 2010 (the "Closing"). Effective upon the Closing, the names of the Fund and its investment advisor, administrator and distributor changed as shown in the following table:

Investment Advisory Fee

BofA Advisors, LLC ("BofA"), an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of Bank of America Corporation ("BOA"), provides investment advisory services to the Fund. BofA receives a monthly investment advisory fee, calculated based on the combined average net assets of the Fund and certain other money market funds advised by BofA, at the following annual rates:

Average Daily Net Assets   Annual Fee Rates  
First $175 billion     0.15 %  
$175 billion to $225 billion     0.13 %  
Over $225 billion     0.08 %  

 

BofA has contractually agreed to limit the combined investment advisory fee and administration fee for the Fund to an annual rate of 0.19% of the Fund's average net assets through December 31, 2010. There is no guarantee that this expense limitation will continue after December 31, 2010.

For the year ended August 31, 2010, the Fund's annualized effective advisory fee rate, net of fee waivers, was 0.15% of the Fund's average daily net assets.

Administration Fee

BofA provides administrative and other services to the Fund for a monthly administration fee, calculated based on the combined average net asset of the Fund and certain other money market funds advised by BofA, at the following annual rates, less the fees payable by the Fund as described under the Pricing and Bookkeeping Fees note below:

Average Daily Net Assets   Annual Fee Rates  
First $125 billion     0.10 %  
$125 billion to $175 billion     0.05 %  
Over $175 billion     0.02 %  

 

Additionally, effective May 1, 2010, BofA has retained State Street Bank and Trust Company ("State Street") to provide certain sub-administration services under a Sub-Administration Agreement. BofA pays State Street a fee for all services received under the Sub-Administration Agreement.

Pricing and Bookkeeping Fees

Prior to May 1, 2010, the Trust had a Financial Reporting Services Agreement (the "Financial Reporting Services Agreement") with State Street Bank and BofA pursuant to which State Street provided financial reporting services to the


22



BofA Treasury Reserves, August 31, 2010

Fund. Prior to May 1, 2010, the Trust had an Accounting Services Agreement (collectively with the Financial Reporting Services Agreement, the " Former State Street Agreements") with State Street and BofA pursuant to which State Street provided accounting services to the Fund. Effective May 1, 2010, the Trust entered into an amended and restated Financial Reporting Services Agreement and an amended and restated Accounting Services Agreement with State Street and BofA (the "Current State Street Agreements") pursuant to which State Street provides the Fund with services similar to those provided under the Former State Street Agreements. Under the Current State Street Agreements, the Fund pays State Street an annual fee of $38,000 paid monthly plus an additional monthly fee based on an annualized percentage rate of average daily net assets of the Fund for the month. The aggregate fee will not exceed $140,000 per year (exclusive of out-of-pocket expenses and charges). The Fund also reimburses State Street for certain out-of-pocket expenses and charges.

Prior to May 1, 2010, the Trust had a Pricing and Bookkeeping Oversight and Services Agreement (the "Services Agreement") with BofA. Under the Services Agreement, BofA provided services related to Fund expenses and the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, and provided oversight of the accounting and financial reporting services provided by State Street. Under the Services Agreement, the Fund reimbursed BofA for out-of-pocket expenses and charges, including fees payable to third parties, such as for pricing the Fund's portfolio securities, incurred by BofA in the performance of services under the Services Agreement. The Services Agreement was terminated upon the Closing, and the services that were provided thereunder are covered under an amended and restated administration agreement with BofA.

Transfer Agent Fee

Prior to May 1, 2010, Columbia Management Services, Inc. (the "Former Transfer Agent"), an affiliate of BofA Global Capital Management Group LLC ("BofA Global Capital Management") and an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of BOA, provided shareholder services to the Fund and had contracted with Boston Financial Data Services, Inc. ("BFDS" or the "Current Transfer Agent") to serve as sub-transfer agent. Effective January 1, 2010, the Former Transfer Agent was entitled to receive a fee for its services, paid monthly, at the annual rate of $22.36 per account plus reimbursement of certain sub-transfer agent fees paid by the Former Transfer Agent (exclusive of BFDS fees), calculated based on assets held in omnibus accounts and intended to recover the cost of payments to other parties (including affiliates of BOA) for services to those accounts. Prior to January 1, 2010, the annual rate was $17.34 per account. The Former Transfer Agent paid the fees of BFDS for services as sub-transfer agent and was not entitled to reimbursement for such fees from the Fund.

The Former Transfer Agent was also entitled to retain, as additional compensation for its services, fees for wire, telephone and redemption orders, Individual Retirement Account ("IRA") trustee agent fees and account transcript fees due to the Former Transfer Agent from shareholders of the Fund and credits (net of bank charges) earned with respect to balances in accounts the Former Transfer Agent maintained in connection with its services to the Fund. The Former Transfer Agent also received reimbursement for certain out-of-pocket expenses.

Effective May 1, 2010, the Current Transfer Agent acts as transfer agent for the Fund's shares. Under a transfer agency agreement with the Trust, the Current Transfer Agent provides transfer agency, dividend disbursing agency and shareholder servicing agency services to the Fund.

An annual minimum account balance fee of up to $20 may apply to certain accounts with a value below the Fund's minimum investment requirements to reduce the impact of small accounts on transfer agent fees. These minimum account balance fees are recorded as part of expense reductions on the Statement of Operations. For the year ended August 31, 2010, no minimum account balance fees were charged by the Fund.

Distribution and Service Fees

BofA Distributors, Inc. (the "Distributor"), an affiliate of BOA, is the principal underwriter of the Fund's shares.

The Trust has adopted distribution plans ("Distribution Plans") for the Liquidity Class, Investor Class, Daily Class and Class A shares of the Fund. The Distribution Plans, adopted pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act, permit the Fund to compensate or reimburse the Distributor and/or selling agents for activities or expenses primarily intended to result in the sale of the classes' shares.


23



BofA Treasury Reserves, August 31, 2010

The Trust also has adopted shareholder servicing plans ("Servicing Plans") for the Liquidity Class, Adviser Class, Investor Class, Daily Class and Class A shares of the Fund. The Servicing Plans permit the Fund to compensate or reimburse servicing agents for the shareholder services they have provided.

A substantial portion of the expenses incurred pursuant to these plans is paid to affiliates of BOA and the Distributor. The annual rates in effect and plan limits, as a percentage of average daily net assets are as follows:

Distribution Plans:   Current Rate
(after fee
waivers)
  Plan Limit  
Liquidity Class shares     0.15 %*     0.25 %**  
Investor Class shares     0.10 %     0.10 %  
Daily Class shares     0.35 %     0.35 %  
Class A shares     0.10 %     0.10 %  
Servicing Plans:  
Liquidity Class shares     0.15 %*     0.25 %**  
Adviser Class shares     0.25 %     0.25 %  
Investor Class shares     0.25 %     0.25 %  
Daily Class shares     0.25 %     0.25 %  
Class A shares     0.25 %     0.25 %  

 

*  The Distributor has contractually agreed to waive Distribution Plan fees and/or Servicing Plan fees through December 31, 2010 as a percentage of the Fund's Liquidity Class shares average daily net assets at an annual rate of 0.10%, so that combined fees will not exceed 0.15%. There is no guarantee that this waiver will continue after December 31, 2010. The amount of the waiver is included in the fees waived by shareholder service provider on the Statement of Operations.

**  To the extent that the Liquidity Class shares of the Fund make payments pursuant to the Distribution Plan and/or the Servicing Plan, the total of such payments may not exceed, on an annual basis, 0.25% of the average daily net assets of the Fund's Liquidity Class shares.

Shareholder Administration Fees

The Trust has adopted shareholder administration plans ("Administration Plans") for the Class A, Trust Class and Institutional Class shares of the Fund. Under the Administration Plans, the Fund may pay servicing agents that have entered into a shareholder administration agreement with the Trust for certain shareholder support services that are provided to holders of the classes' shares. A substantial portion of the expenses incurred pursuant to these plans is paid to affiliates of BOA and the Distributor.

The annual rates in effect and plan limits, as a percentage of average daily net assets are as follows:

Administration Plans:   Current
Rate
  Plan
Limit
 
Trust Class shares     0.10 %     0.10 %  
Class A shares     0.10 %     0.10 %  
Institutional Class shares     0.04 %     0.04 %  

 

Fees Paid to Officers and Trustees

All officers of the Fund are employees of BofA or its affiliates and, with the exception of the Fund's Chief Compliance Officer, receive no compensation from the Fund. The Board of Trustees has appointed a Chief Compliance Officer to the Fund in accordance with federal securities regulations. The Fund, along with other affiliated funds, pays its pro-rata share of the expenses associated with the Chief Compliance Officer. The Fund's expenses for the Chief Compliance Officer will not exceed $15,000 per year.

Trustees are compensated for their services to the Fund, as set forth on the Statement of Operations. The Trust's eligible Trustees may participate in a non-qualified deferred compensation plan which may be terminated at any time. Any payments to plan participants are paid solely out of the Fund's assets. Income earned on the plan participant's deferral account is based on the rate of return of the eligible mutual funds selected by the participant or, if no funds are selected, on the rate of return of BofA Treasury Reserves. The expense for the deferred compensation plan, which includes trustees' fees deferred during the current period as well as any gains or losses on the trustees' deferred compensation balances as a result of market fluctuations, is included in "Trustees' fees" on the Statements of Operations. The liability for the deferred compensation plan is included in "Trustees' fees" on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

As a result of a fund merger, the Fund assumed the liabilities of the deferred compensation plan of the acquired fund, which are included in "Trustees' deferred compensation plan" on the


24



BofA Treasury Reserves, August 31, 2010

Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Any payments to plan participants are paid solely out of the Fund's assets.

Fee Waivers and Expense Reimbursements

BofA and/or some of the Fund's other service providers have contractually agreed to bear a portion of the Fund's expenses through December 31, 2010, so that the Fund's ordinary operating expenses (excluding any distribution, shareholder servicing and/or shareholder administration fees, interest, taxes and extraordinary expenses, but including custodian charges relating to overdrafts, if any) after giving effect to any balance credits from the Fund's custodian, do not exceed the annual rate of 0.20% of the Fund's average daily net assets. There is no guarantee that this expense limitation will continue after December 31, 2010.

At August 31, 2010, the amounts potentially recoverable by BofA pursuant to this arrangement are as follows:

Amount of potential recovery expiring August 31:   Total
potential
  Amount recovered
during the year
 
2013   2012   2011   recovery   ended 08/31/10  
$ 7,398,397     $ 13,656,317     $ 14,300,715     $ 35,355,429     $    

 

The Distributor has voluntarily agreed to reimburse certain class-specific Fund expenses (consisting of shareholder servicing, distribution and shareholder administration fees, as applicable) to the extent necessary in order to maintain a minimum annualized net yield of 0.00% for all classes of the Fund. In addition, BofA has voluntarily agreed to reimburse certain Fund expenses (consisting of advisory and administration fees) to the extent necessary to maintain such yield in the event the Distributor's reimbursement of class specific Fund expenses is fully utilized. These reimbursements are voluntary and may be modified or discontinued by the Distributor or BofA at any time.

BofA is entitled to recover from the Fund any fees waived and/or expenses reimbursed for a three year period following the date of such fee waiver and/or reimbursement if such recovery does not cause the Fund's total operating expenses to exceed the expense limitation in effect at the time of recovery. Under the Distribution Plans for the Liquidity Class shares, the Trust is currently not reimbursing the Distributor for distribution expenses for Liquidity Class shares. Unreimbursed expenses incurred by the Distributor in a given year may not be recovered by the Distributor in subsequent years.

Note 5. Custody Credits

The Fund has an agreement with its custodian bank under which custody fees may be reduced by balance credits. These credits are recorded as part of expense reductions on the Statement of Operations. The Fund could have invested a portion of the assets utilized in connection with the expense offset arrangement in an income-producing asset if it had not entered into such an agreement.

For the year ended August 31, 2010, these custody credits reduced total expenses by $523 for the Fund.

Note 6. Line of Credit

The Fund and other affiliated funds participate in a $200,000,000 uncommitted, unsecured line of credit provided by State Street. Borrowings are available for short-term liquidity or temporary or emergency purposes.

Effective December 16, 2009, interest is charged to each participating fund based on the fund's borrowings at a rate per annum equal to the greater of the Federal Funds Rate plus 1.25% or the overnight LIBOR Rate plus 1.25%. An annual administration fee of $10,000 is also accrued and apportioned to each fund participating in the line of credit based on the average net assets of the participating funds.


25



BofA Treasury Reserves, August 31, 2010

Prior to December 16, 2009, interest was charged to each participating fund based on the fund's borrowings at a rate per annum equal to the greater of the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.75% or the overnight LIBOR Rate plus 0.75%. A onetime structuring fee of $10,000 was also accrued and apportioned to each fund participating in the line of credit based on the average net assets of the participating funds.

For the year ended August 31, 2010, the Fund did not borrow under these arrangements.

Note 7. Shares of Beneficial Interest

As of August 31, 2010, five shareholders held 92.7% of the Fund's shares outstanding over which BOA and/or any of its affiliates did not have investment discretion.

As of August 31, 2010, no other shareholders owned more than 5% of the outstanding shares of the Fund.

Subscription and redemption activity of this account may have a significant effect on the operations of the Fund.

Note 8. Significant Risks and Contingencies

Legal Proceedings

BofA Advisors, LLC and BofA Distributors, Inc. (collectively, the BofA Group) are subject to a settlement agreement with the New York Attorney General (NYAG) (the NYAG Settlement) and a settlement order with the SEC (the SEC Order) on matters relating to mutual fund trading, each dated February 9, 2005. Under the terms of the SEC Order, the BofA Group (or predecessor or affiliated entities) agreed, among other things, to: pay disgorgement and civil money penalties collectively totaling $375 million; cease and desist from violations of the antifraud provisions and certain other provisions of the federal securities laws; maintain certain compliance and ethics oversight structures; and retain an independent consultant to review the BofA Group's applicable supervisory, compliance, control and other policies and procedures. The NYAG Settlement, among other things, requires BofA Advisors, LLC and its affiliates to make certain disclosures to investors relating to expenses. In connection with the BofA Group providing services to the BofA Funds, the BofA Funds have voluntarily undertaken to implement certain governance measures designed to maintain the independence of their boards of trustees and certain special consulting and compliance measures.

Civil Litigation

In connection with the events that resulted in the NYAG Settlement and SEC Order, various parties filed suits against Bank of America Corporation and certain of its affiliates, including Banc of America Capital Management, LLC (BACAP, now known as BofA Advisors, LLC) and BACAP Distributors, LLC (now known as BofA Distributors, Inc.) (collectively BAC), Nations Funds Trust and its Board of Trustees. On February 20, 2004, the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation transferred these cases and cases against other mutual fund companies based on similar allegations to the United States District Court in Maryland for consolidated or coordinated pretrial proceedings (the MDL). Subsequently, additional related cases were transferred to the MDL. On September 29, 2004, the plaintiffs in the MDL filed amended and consolidated complaints. One of these amended complaints is a putative class action that includes claims under the federal securities laws and state common law, and that names Nations Funds Trust, its Trustees, BAC and others as defendants. Another of the amended complaints is a derivative action purportedly on behalf of the Nations Funds Trust against BAC and others that asserts claims under federal securities laws and state common law. Nations Funds Trust is a nominal defendant in this action. On February 25, 2005, BAC and other defendants filed motions to dismiss the claims in the pending cases. On December 15, 2005, BAC and others entered into a Stipulation of Settlement of the direct and derivative claims brought on behalf of the Nations Funds shareholders. That stipulation was amended on February 4, 2010. The settlement has been preliminarily approved by the court. A final approval hearing on the settlement is scheduled for October 21 and 22, 2010. If the settlement is approved, BAC would pay settlement administration costs and fees to plaintiffs' counsel as approved by the court.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Trustees of BofA Funds Series Trust and Shareholders of BofA Treasury Reserves (formerly Columbia Treasury Reserves, a series of Columbia Funds Series Trust)

In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the investment portfolio, and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of BofA Treasury Reserves (formerly Columbia Treasury Reserves, a series of Columbia Funds Series Trust) (the "Fund") (a series of BofA Funds Series Trust) at August 31, 2010, and the results of its operations, the changes in its net assets and the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as "financial statements") are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements 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 are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at August 31, 2010 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

President's Message

To Our Valued Shareholders:

Over the past year, the short-term debt markets continued their recovery from the worst effects of the global financial crisis, but even with that healing, the market environment was hardly hospitable for money market fund investors. The sovereign debt crisis in Europe, anemic economic growth globally and record low interest rates combined to present investors with some very difficult challenges.

At BofA Global Capital Management, we responded to those challenges by maintaining our focus on what is important to investors in the BofA Funds—principal preservation, a high degree of liquidity and achieving the best yields possible consistent with an emphasis on principal preservation and liquidity. To achieve those objectives, we employ sophisticated risk management processes and a conservative approach to security selection that we believe will better insulate our funds from market turbulence. Recognizing the importance of human capital to effective risk management, we have also strengthened our investment team by adding seasoned credit analysts and other talented professionals, whose insights we believe will better position us to manage portfolio risk.

The investments we made in our business—and by extension, in our clients—was an important component of our transition from the liquidity asset management arm of Columbia Management to BofA Global Capital Management. As you may know, Bank of America sold Columbia Management's equity and fixed income asset management businesses to Ameriprise Financial earlier this year. Bank of America elected to retain Columbia Management's liquidity asset management platform in part because of the importance of high-quality liquidity strategies to the bank's clients. We are pleased to report that we completed the transition of Columbia Management's liquidity asset management business to BofA Global Capital Management without disrupting Fund shareholders.

Unfortunately "disruption" was the operative word for the short-term debt markets during the past year. The deteriorating fiscal condition of many European governments raised concerns about the prospect of sovereign debt defaults and their impact on European financial institutions. The crisis, which some observers viewed as a threat to the viability of the European Union, had little direct impact on our funds' performance, as our conservative investment philosophy helped us limit our exposure to European bank debt. In the U.S., the Securities and Exchange Commission imposed new restrictions on the amount of investment risk the managers of money market funds can assume in order to make funds more stable during market crises. BofA Global Capital Management's money market funds were little affected by the SEC's mandates because we had adopted many of the requirements well in advance of their implementation dates.

Looking ahead, we can expect the challenging market environment to continue for the immediate future. The European debt crisis, while somewhat contained, has not been resolved completely and probably will not be until European governments adopt difficult structural reforms. In the United States, many states and municipalities face tough fiscal problems of their own due to declining tax revenues. Finally, record low interest rates continue to place heavy downward pressure on yields. In this environment, the best course of action for liquidity investors, in our view, is to pursue an investment program that emphasizes principal protection but also positions investors to benefit when rates begin to rise. We believe our focus on liquidity-oriented investment strategies, our experienced investment professionals and the resources available to us as part of one of the world's largest financial institutions make BofA Global Capital Management an ideal partner to help you navigate today's challenging markets. We look forward in the months ahead to demonstrating the value we can offer you, and we are grateful for the opportunity to have served you over the past year.

Sincerely,

Michael Pelzar
President, BofA Global Capital Management Group, LLC




Understanding Your ExpensesBofA Connecticut Municipal Reserves

As a fund shareholder, you incur ongoing costs, which generally include investment advisory fees, distribution and service (Rule 12b-1) fees and other fund expenses. The information on this page is intended to help you understand the ongoing costs of investing in the fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

Analyzing your fund's expenses by share class

To illustrate these ongoing costs, we have provided an example and calculated the expenses paid by investors in each share class during the period. The information in the following table is based on an initial investment of $1,000, which is invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period. Expense information is calculated two ways and each method provides you with different information. The amount listed in the "Actual" column is calculated using the fund's actual operating expense ratios and actual total return for the period. The amount listed in the "Hypothetical" column for each share class also uses the fund's actual operating expense ratios but assumes that the return each year is 5% before expenses. You should not use the hypothetical account values and expenses to estimate either your actual account balance at the end of the period or the expenses you paid during the period.

Compare with other funds

Since all mutual funds are required to include the same hypothetical calculations about expenses in shareholder reports, you can use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the fund with other funds. To do so, compare the 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of other funds. As you compare hypothetical examples of other funds, it is important to note that hypothetical examples are meant to highlight the ongoing costs of investing in a fund.

Estimating your actual expenses

To estimate the expenses that you paid over the period, first you will need your account balance at the end of the period:

g  For shareholders who receive their account statements from Boston Financial Data Services, Inc., your account balance is available online at www.bofacapital.com or by calling Shareholder Services at 888.331.0904

g  For shareholders who receive their account statements from their financial intermediary, contact your financial intermediary to obtain your account balance.

1.  Divide your ending account balance by $1,000. For example, if an account balance was $8,600 at the end of the period, the result would be 8.6.

2.  In the section of the table below titled "Expenses paid during the period," locate the amount for your share class. You will find this number in the column labeled "Actual." Multiply this number by the  result from step 1. Your answer is an estimate of the expenses you paid on your account during the period.

If the value of your account falls below the minimum initial investment requirement applicable to you, your account generally will be subject to an annual fee of up to $20. This fee is not included in the accompanying table. If you are subject to the fee, keep it in mind when you are estimating the ongoing expenses of investing in the fund and when comparing the expenses of this fund with other funds.

Expenses paid during the period are equal to the annualized expense ratio for the share class, multiplied by the average account value over the period, then multiplied by the number of days in the fund's most recent fiscal half-year and divided by 365.

Had the investment advisor and/or any of its affiliates not waived fees or reimbursed a portion of expenses, account value at the end of the period would have been reduced.

It is important to note that the expense amounts shown in the table are meant to highlight only ongoing costs of investing in the fund.

Notes to Financial StatementsBofA Money Market Funds
August 31, 2010

Note 1. Organization

BofA Funds Series Trust (the "Trust") is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end management investment company organized as a Delaware statutory trust. Information presented in these financial statements pertains to BofA Connecticut Municipal Reserves, formerly Columbia Connecticut Municipal Reserves, and BofA Massachusetts Municipal Reserves, formerly Columbia Massachusetts Municipal Reserves, (each a "Fund" and collectively, the "Funds"), each a series of the Trust. Each Fund is a non-diversified fund.

As of the close of business on December 31, 2009, the Funds acquired all of the assets and liabilities of Columbia Connecticut Municipal Reserves and Columbia Massachusetts Municipal Reserves (the "Predecessor Funds"), respectively, each a series of Columbia Funds Series Trust, pursuant to a reorganization. Each reorganization qualified as a tax-free exchange for federal income tax purposes.

As part of the reorganization, each Predecessor Fund's Retail A shares were reorganized into the corresponding Fund's Retail A shares and each Predecessor Fund's G-Trust shares were reorganized into the corresponding Fund's G-Trust shares. Prior to the reorganization, the financial information of each Fund includes the financial information of the corresponding Predecessor Funds. Each of the Predecessor Funds was organized as a separate series of Columbia Funds Series Trust, a Delaware statutory trust, and was registered under the 1940 Act as an open-end management investment company. Each Fund is continuing the business, including carrying forward the financial and performance history, of the corresponding Predecessor Fund.

Investment Objectives

BofA Connecticut Municipal Reserves seeks current income exempt from federal income tax and Connecticut individual, trust and estate income tax, consistent with capital preservation and maintenance of a high degree of liquidity. BofA Massachusetts Municipal Reserves seeks current income exempt from federal income tax and Massachusetts individual income tax, consistent with capital preservation and maintenance of a high degree of liquidity.

Fund Shares

The Trust may issue an unlimited number of shares, and each Fund offers two classes of shares: Retail A and G-Trust shares. Retail A shares are only generally available to existing shareholders of Retail A shares. Each class of shares is offered continuously at net asset value.

Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Management has evaluated the events and transactions that have occurred through the date the financial statements were issued and noted no items requiring adjustment of the financial statements or additional disclosures.

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Funds in the preparation of their financial statements.

Security Valuation

Securities in the Funds are valued utilizing the amortized cost valuation method permitted in accordance with Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act provided certain conditions are met, including that the Funds' Board of Trustees continues to believe that the amortized cost valuation method fairly reflects the market-based net asset value per share of the Funds. This method involves valuing a portfolio security initially at its cost and thereafter assuming a constant accretion or amortization to maturity of any discount or premium, respectively. The Funds' Board of Trustees has established procedures intended to stabilize each Fund's net asset value for purposes of sales and redemptions at $1.00 per share. These procedures include determinations, at such intervals as the Board of Trustees deems appropriate and reasonable in light of current market conditions, of the extent, if any, to which each Fund's market based net asset value deviates from $1.00 per share. In the


18



BofA Money Market Funds, August 31, 2010 (continued)

event such deviation exceeds 1/2 of 1%, the Board of Trustees will promptly consider what action, if any, should be initiated.

GAAP establishes a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value giving the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical securities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements) when market prices are not readily available or reliable. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:

•  Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical securities

•  Level 2 – the Fund's assets assigned to the Level 2 input category represent certain short-term obligations which are valued using amortized cost, an income approach which converts future cash flows to a present value based upon the discount or premium at purchase.

•  Level 3 – prices determined using significant unobservable inputs. In situations where quoted prices or observable inputs are unavailable or less reliable, unobservable inputs may be used. Unobservable inputs may include management's own assumptions about the factors market participants would use in pricing an investment.

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

On January 21, 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued an Accounting Standards Update (the "Amendment"), Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820): Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements, which provides guidance on how investment assets and liabilities are to be valued and disclosed. Specifically, the Amendment requires reporting entities to disclose the inputs and valuation techniques used to measure fair value for both recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements for Level 2 and Level 3 positions. The Amendment also requires that transfers between all levels (including Level 1 and Level 2) be disclosed on a gross basis (i.e., transfers out must be disclosed separately from transfers in), and requires disclosure of the reason(s) for the transfer. Additionally, purchases, sales, issuances and settlements must be disclosed on a gross basis in the Level 3 rollforward. The effective date of the Amendment is for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the requirement to provide the Level 3 activity for purchases, sales, issuances and settlements on a gross basis, which will be effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2010. At this time, management is evaluating the implications of the Amendment.

Security Transactions

Security transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Cost is determined and gains (losses) are based upon the specific identification method for both financial statement and federal income tax purposes.

Income Recognition

Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Premium and discount are amortized and accreted, respectively, on all debt securities, unless otherwise noted.

Expenses

General expenses of the Trust are allocated to the Funds and other series of the Trust based upon relative net assets or other expense allocation methodologies determined by the nature of the expense. Expenses directly attributable to a Fund are charged to such Fund.

Determination of Class Net Asset Value

All income, expenses (other than class-specific expenses, as shown on the Statements of Operations) and realized and unrealized gains (losses) are allocated to each class of a Fund on a daily basis for purposes of determining the net asset value of each class. Income and expenses are allocated to each class based on the settled shares method, while realized and unrealized gains (losses) are allocated based on the relative net assets of each class.

Federal Income Tax Status

Each Fund intends to qualify each year as a "regulated investment company" under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended, and will distribute substantially all of its tax-exempt or taxable income, if any, for its tax year, and as such will not be subject to federal income taxes. In addition, each Fund intends to distribute in each calendar year substantially all of its net investment income, capital gains and certain other amounts, if any, such that each Fund


19



BofA Money Market Funds, August 31, 2010 (continued)

should not be subject to federal excise tax. Therefore, no federal income or excise tax provision is recorded.

Distributions to Shareholders

Distributions from net investment income, if any, are declared daily and paid monthly. Net realized capital gains, if any, are distributed at least annually after the fiscal year in which the capital gains were earned or more frequently to seek to maintain a net asset value of $1.00 per share, unless offset by any available capital loss carryforward. Income distributions and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP.

Indemnification

In the normal course of business, each Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnities. A Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown because this would involve future claims against a Fund. Also, under the Trust's organizational documents and by contract, the Trustees and officers of the Trust are indemnified against certain liabilities that may arise out of actions relating to their duties to the Trust. However, based on experience, Management expects the risk of loss due to these representations, warranties and indemnities to be minimal.

Note 3. Federal Tax Information

The timing and character of income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. Reclassifications are made to the Funds' capital accounts for permanent tax differences to reflect income and gains available for distribution (or available capital loss carryforwards) under income tax regulations.

For the year ended August 31, 2010, permanent book and tax basis differences resulting primarily from differing treatments for distributions were identified and reclassified among the components of the Funds' net assets as follows:

    Undistributed
Net Investment
Income
  Accumulated
Net Realized
Loss
  Paid-In Capital  
BofA Connecticut Municipal Reserves   $ (1,162 )   $ (1,267 )   $ 2,429    
BofA Massachusetts Municipal Reserves     35,788       (35,788 )        

 

The tax character of distributions paid during the years ended August 31, 2010 and August 31, 2009 was as follows:

    August 31, 2010  
    Tax-Exempt
Income
  Ordinary

*For tax purposes short-term capital gain distributions, if any, are considered ordinary income distributions.

Management is required to determine whether a tax position of the Funds is more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by the applicable taxing authority, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefit to be recognized by each Fund is measured as the largest amount of benefit that is greater than fifty percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Management is not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months. However, management's conclusions may be subject to review and adjustment at a later date based on factors including, but not limited to, new tax laws, regulations, and administrative interpretations (including relevant court decisions). The Funds' federal tax returns for the prior three fiscal years remain subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service.

Note 4. Fees and Compensation Paid to Affiliates

Bank of America, N.A., the former indirect parent company of Columbia Management Group, LLC ("Columbia") (now known as BofA Global Capital Management Group, LLC), entered into an agreement dated September 29, 2009, to sell a portion of the asset management business of Columbia to Ameriprise Financial, Inc. The transaction ("Transaction") included the sale of the part of the asset management business that advises long-term mutual funds, but did not include the sale of the part of the asset management business that advises the Funds. The transaction closed on May 1, 2010 (the "Closing"). Effective upon the Closing, the names of the Funds and their investment advisor, administrator and distributor changed as shown in the following table:

BofA Money Market Funds, August 31, 2010 (continued)

Investment Advisory Fee

BofA Advisors, LLC ("BofA"), an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of Bank of America Corporation ("BOA"), provides investment advisory services to the Funds. BofA receives a monthly investment advisory fee, calculated based on the combined average net assets of the Funds and certain other money market funds advised by BofA, at the following annual rates:

Average Daily Net Assets   Annual Fee Rates  
First $175 billion     0.15 %  
$175 billion to $225 billion     0.13 %  
Over $225 billion     0.08 %  

 

BofA has contractually agreed to limit the combined investment advisory fee and administration fee for the Funds to an annual rate of 0.19% of each Fund's average net assets through December 31, 2010. There is no guarantee that this expense limitation will continue after December 31, 2010.

For the year ended August 31, 2010, the effective investment advisory fee rates, net of fee waivers, were 0.15% of each Fund's average daily net assets.

Administration Fee

BofA provides administrative and other services to the Funds for a monthly administration fee, calculated based on the combined average net assets of the Funds and certain other money market funds advised by BofA, at the following annual rates, less the fees payable by the Funds as described under the Pricing and Bookkeeping Fees note below:

Average Daily Net Assets   Annual Fee Rates  
First $125 billion     0.10 %  
$125 billion to $175 billion     0.05 %  
Over $175 billion     0.02 %  

 

Additionally, effective May 1, 2010, BofA has retained State Street Bank and Trust Company ("State Street") to provide certain sub-administration services under a Sub-Administration Agreement. BofA pays State Street a fee for all services received under the Sub-Administration Agreement.

Pricing and Bookkeeping Fees

Prior to May 1, 2010, the Trust had a Financial Reporting Services Agreement (the "Financial Reporting Services Agreement") with State Street Bank and BofA pursuant to which State Street provided financial reporting services to the Funds. Prior to May 1, 2010, the Trust had an Accounting Services Agreement (collectively with the Financial Reporting Services Agreement, the " Former State Street Agreements") with State Street and BofA pursuant to which State Street provided accounting services to the Funds. Effective May 1, 2010, the Trust entered into an amended and restated Financial Reporting Services Agreement and an amended and restated Accounting Services Agreement with State Street and BofA (the "Current State Street Agreements") pursuant to which State Street provides each Fund with services similar to those provided under the Former State Street Agreements. Under the Current State Street Agreements, each Fund pays State Street an annual fee of $38,000 paid monthly plus an additional monthly fee based on an annualized percentage rate of average daily net assets of the Fund for the month. The aggregate fee will not exceed $140,000 per year (exclusive of out-of-pocket expenses and charges). The Funds also reimburse State Street for certain out-of-pocket expenses and charges.

Prior to May 1, 2010, the Trust had a Pricing and Bookkeeping Oversight and Services Agreement (the "Services Agreement") with BofA. Under the Services Agreement, BofA provided services related to each Fund's expenses and the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, and provided oversight of the accounting and financial reporting services provided by State Street. Under the Services Agreement, each Fund reimbursed BofA for out-of-pocket expenses and charges, including fees payable to third parties, such as for pricing each Fund's portfolio securities, incurred by BofA in the performance of services under the Services Agreement. The Services Agreement was terminated upon the Closing, and the services that were provided thereunder are covered under an amended and restated administration agreement with BofA.

Transfer Agent Fee

Prior to May 1, 2010, Columbia Management Services, Inc. (the "Former Transfer Agent"), an affiliate of BofA Global Capital Management Group, LLC ("BofA Global Capital Management") and an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of BOA, provided


22



BofA Money Market Funds, August 31, 2010 (continued)

shareholder services to the Funds and had contracted with Boston Financial Data Services, Inc. ("BFDS" or the "Current Transfer Agent") to serve as sub-transfer agent. Effective January 1, 2010, the Former Transfer Agent was entitled to receive a fee for its services, paid monthly, at the annual rate of $22.36 per account plus reimbursement of certain sub-transfer agent fees paid by the Former Transfer Agent (exclusive of BFDS fees), calculated based on assets held in omnibus accounts and intended to recover the cost of payments to other parties (including affiliates of BOA) for services to those accounts. Prior to January 1, 2010, the annual rate was $17.34 per account. The Former Transfer Agent paid the fees of BFDS for services as sub-transfer agent and was not entitled to reimbursement for such fees from the Funds.

The Former Transfer Agent was also entitled to retain, as additional compensation for its services, fees for wire, telephone and redemption orders, Individual Retirement Account ("IRA") trustee agent fees and account transcript fees due to the Former Transfer Agent from shareholders of the Funds and credits (net of bank charges) earned with respect to balances in accounts the Former Transfer Agent maintained in connection with its services to the Funds. The Former Transfer Agent also received reimbursement for certain out-of-pocket expenses.

Effective May 1, 2010, the Current Transfer Agent acts as transfer agent for each Fund's shares. Under a transfer agency agreement with the Trust, the Current Transfer Agent provides transfer agency, dividend disbursing agency and shareholder servicing agency services to the Funds.

An annual minimum account balance fee of up to $20 may apply to certain accounts with a value below the Funds' minimum investment requirements to reduce the impact of small accounts on transfer agent fees. These minimum account balance fees are recorded as part of expense reductions on the Statement of Operations. For the year ended August 31, 2010, no minimum account balance fees were charged by the Funds.

Shareholder Servicing Fee

BofA Distributors, Inc. (the "Distributor"), an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of BOA, is the principal underwriter of the Funds' shares.

The Trust has adopted a shareholder services plan (the "Servicing Plan") with respect to the Retail A shares of the Funds. The Servicing Plan provides compensation to institutions which provide administrative and support services to their customers who beneficially own Retail A shares. Payments under the Servicing Plan are equal to the annual rates of 0.10% and 0.08% for BofA Connecticut Municipal Reserves and BofA Massachusetts Municipal Reserves, respectively.

Fee Waivers and Expense Reimbursements

BofA and/or some of the Funds' other service providers have contractually agreed to bear a portion of the Funds' expenses through December 31, 2010, so that the Funds' ordinary operating expenses (excluding any distribution, shareholder servicing and/or shareholder administration fees, interest, taxes and extraordinary expenses, but including custodian charges relating to overdrafts, if any) after giving effect to any balance credits from the Funds' custodian, do not exceed the annual rate of 0.20% of each Fund's average daily net assets. There is no guarantee that this expense limitation will continue after December 31, 2010.

The Distributor has voluntarily agreed to reimburse certain class-specific Fund expenses (consisting of shareholder servicing, distribution and shareholder administration fees, as applicable) to the extent necessary in order to maintain a minimum annualized net yield of 0.00% for all classes of each Fund. In addition, BofA has voluntarily agreed to reimburse certain Fund expenses (consisting of advisory and administration fees) to the extent necessary to maintain such yield in the event the Distributor's reimbursement of class specific Fund expenses is fully utilized. These reimbursements are voluntary and may be modified or discontinued by the Distributor or BofA at any time.

Fees Paid to Officers and Trustees

All officers of the Funds are employees of BofA or its affiliates and, with the exception of the Funds' Chief Compliance Officer, receive no compensation from the Funds. The Board of Trustees has appointed a Chief Compliance Officer to the Funds in accordance with federal securities regulations. The Funds, along with other affiliated funds, pay their pro-rata share of the expenses associated with the Chief Compliance Officer. Each Fund's expenses for the Chief Compliance Officer will not exceed


23



BofA Money Market Funds, August 31, 2010 (continued)

$15,000 per year. Trustees are compensated for their services to the Funds, as set forth on the Statement of Operations.

The Trust's eligible Trustees may participate in a non-qualified deferred compensation plan which may be terminated at any time. Any payments to plan participants are paid solely out of the Funds' assets. Income earned on the plan participant's deferral account is based on the rate of return of the eligible mutual funds selected by the participant or, if no funds are selected, on the rate of return of BofA Treasury Reserves, another portfolio of the Trust. The expense for the deferred compensation plan, which includes trustees' fees deferred during the current period as well as any gains or losses on the trustees' deferred compensation balances as a result of market fluctuations, is included in "Trustees' fees" on the Statements of Operations. The liability for the deferred compensation plan is included in "Trustees' fees" on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

As a result of fund mergers, each Fund assumed the liabilities of the deferred compensation plan of the acquired fund, which are included in "Trustees' deferred compensation plan" on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Any payments to plan participants are paid solely out of the Funds' assets.

Note 5. Custody Credits

Each Fund has an agreement with its custodian bank under which custody fees may be reduced by balance credits. These credits are recorded as part of expense reductions on the Statements of Operations. The Funds could have invested a portion of the assets utilized in connection with the expense offset arrangement in an income-producing asset if they had not entered into such an agreement.

For the year ended August 31, 2010, these custody credits reduced total expenses for the Funds as follows:

    Custody
Credits
 
BofA Connecticut Municipal Reserves   $ 20    
BofA Massachusetts Municipal Reserves     66    

 

Note 6. Line of Credit

The Funds and other affiliated funds participate in a $200,000,000 uncommitted, unsecured line of credit provided by State Street. Borrowings are available for short-term liquidity or temporary or emergency purposes.

Effective December 16, 2009, interest is charged to each participating fund based on the fund's borrowings at a rate per annum equal to the greater of the Federal Funds Rate plus 1.25% or the overnight LIBOR Rate plus 1.25%. An annual administration fee of $10,000 is also accrued and apportioned to each fund participating in the line of credit based on the average net assets of the participating funds.

Prior to December 16, 2009, interest was charged to each participating fund based on the fund's borrowings at a rate per annum equal to the greater of the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.75% or the overnight LIBOR Rate plus 0.75%. A onetime structuring fee of $10,000 was also accrued and apportioned to each fund participating in the line of credit based on the average net assets of the participating funds.

For the year ended August 31, 2010, the Funds did not borrow under these arrangements.

Note 7. Shares of Beneficial Interest

As of August 31, 2010, the Funds had shareholders that held greater than 5% of the shares outstanding of a Fund, over which BOA and/or any of its affiliates did not have investment discretion. The number of accounts and the percentages of shares of beneficial interest outstanding held therein are as follows:

    Number of
Accounts
  % of Shares
Outstanding
Held
 
BofA Connecticut Municipal
Reserves
    2       97.6    
BofA Massachusetts Municipal
Reserves
    2       97.3    

 

As of August 31, 2010, no other shareholders owned more than 5% of the outstanding shares of each Fund.

Subscription and redemption activity of these accounts may have a significant effect on the operations of the Funds.


24



BofA Money Market Funds, August 31, 2010 (continued)

Note 8. Significant Risks and Contingencies Non-Diversification Risk

The Funds are non-diversified, which generally means that they may invest a greater percentage of their total assets in the securities of fewer issuers than a "diversified" fund. This increases the risk that a change in the value of any one investment held by a Fund could affect the overall value of the Fund more than it would affect that of a diversified fund holding a greater number of investments. Accordingly, a Fund's value will likely be more volatile than the value of more diversified funds.

Geographic Concentration Risk

BofA Connecticut Municipal Reserves and BofA Massachusetts Municipal Reserves invest primarily in debt obligations issued, respectively, by the State of Connecticut and the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, and their political subdivisions, agencies and public authorities, and other qualified issuers that may be located outside of Connecticut and Massachusetts, respectively. The Funds are more susceptible to economic and political factors adversely affecting issuers of each respective state's municipal securities than are municipal bond funds that are not concentrated to the same extent in these issuers.

At August 31, 2010, investment concentrations by state and/or qualified issuers of each Fund were as follows:

BofA Connecticut Municipal Reserves   % of Net
Assets
 
Connecticut     78.4    
Puerto Rico     15.5    
Colorado     3.0    
Rhode Island     1.5    
Kentucky     0.9    
BofA Massachusetts Municipal Reserves   % of Net
Assets
 
Massachusetts     96.9    
Puerto Rico     3.7    

 

Concentration of Credit Risk

Each of the Funds holds investments that are insured by private insurers who guarantee the payment of principal and interest in the event of default or that are supported by a letter of credit.

At August 31, 2010, no private insurers insured greater than 5% of the total net assets of each respective Fund.

United States Department of the Treasury Temporary Guarantee Program for Money Market Funds

On September 28, 2008, the United States Department of the Treasury (the "Treasury") opened a temporary guarantee program (the "Program") for money market mutual funds registered in the United States under the 1940 Act. On March 31, 2009, the Treasury announced the second extension of the Program from April 30, 2009 through September 18, 2009. The Program expired on September 18, 2009 and will not be further extended by the Treasury. Accordingly, effective September 18, 2009, the Program no longer provides any guarantee against any loss to shareholders with respect to each Fund's shares.

Under the Program, and subject to certain conditions and limitations, share amounts held by investors of each respective Fund as of the close of business on September 19, 2008 were guaranteed against loss in the event that the market-based net asset value per share was less than $0.995 (i.e., does not round to $1.00, a "guarantee event") and the Funds subsequently liquidated. The Program only covered the amount a shareholder held in each respective Fund as of the close of business on September 19, 2008, or the amount a shareholder held if and when a guarantee event occurred, whichever was less.

Columbia Connecticut Municipal Reserves and Columbia Massachusetts Municipal Reserves paid $134,946 and $206,170, respectively, to the Treasury to participate in the Program. This fee was expensed over the period from September 19, 2008 to September 18, 2009 and is an extraordinary item for calculating fee waivers and expense reimbursement discussed in Note 4.

BofA Money Market Funds, August 31, 2010 (continued)

Legal Proceedings

BofA Advisors, LLC and BofA Distributors, Inc. (collectively, the BofA Group) are subject to a settlement agreement with the New York Attorney General (NYAG) (the NYAG Settlement) and a settlement order with the SEC (the SEC Order) on matters relating to mutual fund trading, each dated February 9, 2005. Under the terms of the SEC Order, the BofA Group (or predecessor or affiliated entities) agreed, among other things, to: pay disgorgement and civil money penalties collectively totaling $375 million; cease and desist from violations of the antifraud provisions and certain other provisions of the federal securities laws; maintain certain compliance and ethics oversight structures; and retain an independent consultant to review the BofA Group's applicable supervisory, compliance, control and other policies and procedures. The NYAG Settlement, among other things, requires BofA Advisors, LLC and its affiliates to make certain disclosures to investors relating to expenses. In connection with the BofA Group providing services to the BofA Funds, the BofA Funds have voluntarily undertaken to implement certain governance measures designed to maintain the independence of their boards of trustees and certain special consulting and compliance measures.

Civil Litigation

In connection with the events that resulted in the NYAG Settlement and SEC Order, various parties filed suits against Bank of America Corporation and certain of its affiliates, including Banc of America Capital Management, LLC (BACAP, now known as BofA Advisors, LLC) and BACAP Distributors, LLC (now known as BofA Distributors, Inc.) (collectively BAC), Nations Funds Trust and its Board of Trustees. On February 20, 2004, the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation transferred these cases and cases against other mutual fund companies based on similar allegations to the United States District Court in Maryland for consolidated or coordinated pretrial proceedings (the MDL). Subsequently, additional related cases were transferred to the MDL. On September 29, 2004, the plaintiffs in the MDL filed amended and consolidated complaints. One of these amended complaints is a putative class action that includes claims under the federal securities laws and state common law, and that names Nations Funds Trust, its Trustees, BAC and others as defendants. Another of the amended complaints is a derivative action purportedly on behalf of the Nations Funds Trust against BAC and others that asserts claims under federal securities laws and state common law.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Trustees of BofA Funds Series Trust and Shareholders of BofA Connecticut Municipal Reserves (formerly Columbia Connecticut Municipal Reserves, a series of Columbia Funds Series Trust) and BofA Massachusetts Municipal Reserves (formerly Columbia Massachusetts Municipal Reserves, a series of Columbia Funds Series Trust),

In our opinion, the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the investment portfolios, and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of BofA Connecticut Municipal Reserves (formerly Columbia Connecticut Municipal Reserves, a series of Columbia Funds Series Trust) and BofA Massachusetts Municipal Reserves (each a series of BofA Funds Series Trust, hereafter collectively referred to as the "Funds") (formerly Columbia Massachusetts Municipal Reserves, a series of Columbia Funds Series Trust) at August 31, 2010, and the results of each of their operations, the changes in each of their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as "financial statements") are the responsibility of the Funds' management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at August 31, 2010 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

(e)(1) Audit Committee Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures

 

The registrant’s Audit Committee is required to pre-approve the engagement of the registrant’s independent accountants to provide audit and non-audit services to the registrant and non-audit services to its investment adviser (not including any sub-adviser whose role is primarily portfolio management and is subcontracted with or overseen by another investment adviser) or any entity controlling, controlled by or under common control with such investment adviser that provides ongoing services to the registrant (“Adviser Affiliates”), if the engagement relates directly to the operations and financial reporting of the registrant.

 

The Audit Committee has adopted a Policy for Engagement of Independent Accountants for Audit and Non-Audit Services (“Policy”). The Policy sets forth the understanding of the Audit Committee regarding the engagement of the registrant’s independent accountants to provide (i) audit and permissible audit-related, tax and other services to the registrant (collectively “Fund Services”); (ii) non-audit services to the registrant’s investment adviser (not including any sub-adviser whose role is primarily portfolio management and is subcontracted with or overseen by another investment adviser) and Adviser Affiliates, if the engagement relates directly to the operations or financial reporting of a Fund (collectively “Fund-related Adviser Services”); and (iii) certain other audit and non-audit services to the registrant’s investment adviser (not including any sub-adviser whose role is primarily portfolio management and is subcontracted with or overseen by another investment adviser) and Adviser Affiliates.

 



 

Unless a type of service receives general pre-approval under the Policy, it requires specific pre-approval by the Audit Committee if it is to be provided by the independent accountants.  Pre-approval of non-audit services to the registrant, the registrant’s investment adviser (not including any sub-adviser whose role is primarily portfolio management and is subcontracted with or overseen by another investment adviser) and Adviser Affiliates may be waived provided that the “de minimis” requirements set forth under paragraph (c)(7)(i)(C) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X are met.

 

Under the Policy, the Audit Committee may delegate pre-approval authority to any pre-designated member or members who are Independent Trustees/Directors.  The member(s) to whom such authority is delegated must report, for informational purposes only, any pre-approval decisions to the Audit Committee at its next regular meeting. The Audit Committee’s responsibilities with respect to the pre-approval of services performed by the independent accountants may not be delegated to management.

 

The Policy requires the Fund Treasurer to submit to the Audit Committee, on an annual basis, a schedule of the types of services that are subject to general pre-approval. The schedule(s) provide a description of each type of service that is subject to general pre-approval and, where possible, will provide estimated fee caps for each instance of providing each service. The Audit Committees will review and approve the types of services and review the projected fees for the next fiscal year and may add to, or subtract from, the list of general pre-approved services from time to time based on subsequent determinations.  That approval acknowledges that the Audit Committee is in agreement with the specific types of services that the independent accountants will be permitted to perform.

 

The Fund Treasurer shall report to the Audit Committee at each of its regular meetings regarding all Fund Services or Fund-related Adviser Services initiated since the last such report was rendered, including a general description of the services, actual billed and projected fees, and the means by which such Fund Services or Fund-related Adviser Services were pre-approved by the Audit Committee.

 

*****

 

(e)(2) The percentage of services described in paragraphs (b) through (d) of this Item approved pursuant to the “de minimis” exception under paragraph (c)(7)(i)(C) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X during both fiscal years ended June 30, 2010 and June 30, 2009 was zero.

 

(f) Not applicable.

 

(g) The aggregate non-audit fees billed by the registrant’s accountant for services rendered to the registrant, and rendered to the registrant’s investment adviser (not including any sub-adviser whose role is primarily portfolio management and is subcontracted with or overseen by another investment adviser), and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the adviser that provides

 



 

ongoing services to the registrant for the fiscal years ended August 31, 2010 and August 31, 2009 are approximately as follows:

2009

 

$

806,065

 

$

916,067

 

 

(h) The registrant’s Audit Committee of the Board of Directors has considered whether the provision of non-audit services that were rendered to the registrant’s adviser (not including any sub-adviser whose role is primarily portfolio management and is subcontracted with or overseen by another investment adviser), and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the investment adviser that provides ongoing services to the registrant that were not pre-approved pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(ii) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X, is compatible with maintaining the principal accountant’s independence.

 

Item 5. Audit Committee of Listed Registrants.

 

Not applicable.

 

Item 6. Investments

 

(a)          The registrant’s “Schedule I — Investments in securities of unaffiliated issuers” (as set forth in 17 CFR 210.12-12) is included in Item 1 of this Form N-CSR.

 

(b)         Not applicable.

 

Item 7. Disclosure of Proxy Voting Policies and Procedures for Closed-End Management Investment Companies.

 

Not applicable.

 

Item 8.  Portfolio Managers of Closed-End Management Investment Companies.

 

Not applicable.

 

Item 9. Purchases of Equity Securities by Closed-End Management Investment Company and Affiliated Purchasers.

 

Not applicable.

 

Item 10. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

 

There were no material changes to the procedures by which shareholders may recommend nominees to the registrant’s board of directors.

 



 

Item 11. Controls and Procedures.

 

(a)          The registrant’s principal executive officer and principal financial officers, based on their evaluation of the registrant’s disclosure controls and procedures as of a date within 90 days of the filing of this report, have concluded that such controls and procedures are adequately designed to ensure that material information required to be disclosed by the registrant in Form N-CSR is accumulated and communicated to the registrant’s management, including the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

(b)         There was no change in the registrant’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the registrant’s second fiscal quarter of the period covered by this report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the registrant’s internal control over financial reporting.

 

Item 12. Exhibits.

 

(a)(1) Code of ethics required to be disclosed under Item 2 of Form N-CSR attached hereto as Exhibit 99.CODE ETH.
