FIRST AMERICAN FUNDS      2014 ANNUAL REPORT     1

Explanation of Financial Statements

As a shareholder in First American Funds, you receive shareholder reports semiannually. We strive to present this financial information in an easy-to -understand format; however, for many investors, the information contained in this shareholder report may seem very technical. So, we would like to take this opportunity to explain several sections of the shareholder report.

The Schedule of Investments details all of the securities held in the fund and their related dollar values on the last day of the reporting period. Securities are presented by type (certificates of deposit, government agency debt, etc.) and, for Tax Free Obligations Fund, by state. This information is useful for analyzing how your fund’s assets are invested and seeing where your portfolio manager believes the best opportunities exist to meet your objectives. Holdings are subject to change without notice and do not constitute a recommendation of any individual security. The Notes to the Financial Statements provide additional details on how the securities are valued.

The Statement of Assets and Liabilities lists the assets and liabilities of the fund and presents the fund’s net asset value (“NAV”) per share on the last day of the reporting period. The NAV is calculated by dividing the fund’s net assets (assets minus liabilities) by the number of shares outstanding. The investments, as presented in the Schedule of Investments, comprise substantially all of the fund’s assets. Other assets include cash and receivables for items such as income earned by the fund but not yet received. Liabilities include payables for items such as fund expenses incurred but not yet paid.

The Statement of Operations details the dividends and interest income earned from securities as well as the expenses incurred by the fund during the reporting period. Fund expenses may be reduced through fee waivers or reimbursements. This statement reflects total expenses before any waivers or reimbursements, the amount of waivers and reimbursements (if any), and the net expenses. This statement also shows the net realized and unrealized gains and losses from investments owned during the period. The Notes to Financial Statements provide additional details on investment income and expenses of the fund.

The Statement of Changes in Net Assets describes how the fund’s net assets were affected by its operating results, distributions to shareholders, and shareholder transactions during the reporting period. This statement is important to investors because it shows exactly what caused the fund’s net asset size to change during the period.

The Financial Highlights provide a per-share breakdown of the components that affected the fund’s NAV for the current and past reporting periods. It also shows total return, expense ratios and net investment income ratios. The net investment income ratios summarize the income earned less expenses, divided by the average net assets. The expense ratios represent the percentage of average net assets that were used to cover operating expenses during the period. Expense ratios can vary across funds for a number of reasons, including differences in advisory fees and the average shareholder account size.

The Notes to Financial Statements disclose the organizational background of the fund, its significant accounting policies, federal tax information, fees and compensation paid to affiliates, and significant risks and contingencies.

We hope this guide to your shareholder report will help you get the most out of this important resource. You can visit First American Funds’ website for other useful information on each of our funds, including fund prices, performance, fund manager bios, dividends, and downloadable fact sheets. For more information, call First American Investor Services at 800.677.3863 or visit FirstAmericanFunds.com.

Expense Examples

Expense Example
As a shareholder of one or more of the funds you incur ongoing costs, including investment advisory fees, distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees, and other fund expenses. The examples below are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the funds and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested in a fund at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from March 1, 2014 to August 31, 2014.

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

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
For each class of each fund, the second line for each class provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the respective fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the fund and other funds. To do so, compare these hypothetical examples with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

Please note that the expenses shown in the tables are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges (loads). Therefore, the second line of the tables for each class of each fund is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Shareholders and Board of Directorsof First American Funds, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the schedule of investments, of First American Funds, Inc. (comprised respectfully of Government Obligations Fund, Prime Obligations Fund, Tax Free Obligations Fund, Treasury Obligations Fund, and U.S. Treasury Money Market Fund) (the funds), as of August 31, 2014, and the related statements of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the funds’ internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the funds’ internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements and financial highlights, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of August 31, 2014, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, or by other appropriate auditing procedures where replies from brokers were not received. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each respective fund at August 31, 2014, the results of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

FIRST AMERICAN FUNDS     2014 ANNUAL REPORT 33

Notes to Financial Statements August 31, 2014, all dollars and shares are rounded to thousands (000)

1	Organization
	The Government Obligations Fund, Prime Obligations Fund, Tax Free Obligations Fund, Treasury Obligations Fund, and U.S. Treasury Money Market Fund (each a “fund” and collectively, the “funds”) are mutual funds offered by First American Funds, Inc. (“FAF”), which is a member of the First American Family of Funds. FAF is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (“Investment Company Act”), as an open-end investment management company. FAF’s articles of incorporation permit the board of directors to create additional funds in the future.
	FAF offers Class A, Class D, Class I, Class Y, Class Z, Institutional Investor Class, and Reserve Class shares. Class A shares are not subject to sales charges. Class D, Class I, Class Y, Class Z, Institutional Investor Class, and Reserve Class shares are offered only to qualifying institutional investors. Class I shares are offered by Prime Obligations Fund only. Reserve Class shares are offered by Treasury Obligations Fund only.
	Each fund’s prospectus provides descriptions of its investment objective, principal investment strategies, and principal risks. All classes of shares of a fund have identical voting, dividend, liquidation and other rights, and the same terms and conditions, except that certain fees and expenses, including distribution and shareholder servicing fees, may differ among classes. Each class has exclusive voting rights on any matters relating to its servicing or distribution arrangements.
2	Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
	The significant accounting policies followed by the funds are as follows:
	SECURITY VALUATIONS – Investment securities held are stated at amortized cost (except for investments in other money market funds), which approximates fair value. Under the amortized cost method, any discount or premium is amortized ratably to the final maturity of the security and is included in interest income. Investments in other money market funds are valued at their respective net asset values on the valuation date. In accordance with Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act, the fair values of the securities held in the funds are determined at least once per week using prices supplied by the funds’ independent pricing services. Securities for which prices are not available from an independent pricing service, but where an active market exists, are valued using market quotations obtained from one or more dealers that make markets in the securities. These values are then compared to the securities’ amortized cost. If the advisor concludes that the price obtained from the pric-

ing service is not reliable, or if the pricing service does not provide a price for a security, the advisor will use the fair value of the security for purposes of this comparison, which will be determined pursuant to procedures approved by the board of directors. If the difference between the aggregate market price and aggregate amortized cost of all securities held by a fund exceeds 0.25%, the funds’ administrator will notify the funds’ board of directors and will monitor the deviation on a daily basis. If the difference exceeds 0.50%, a meeting of the board of directors will be convened, and the board will determine what action, if any, to take. During the fiscal year ended August 31, 2014, the differences between the aggregate market price and the aggregate amortized cost of all securities did not exceed 0.25% for any fund.

Generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) require disclosures regarding the inputs and valuation techniques used to measure fair value and any changes in valuation inputs or technique. These principles establish a three-tier fair value hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value. Fair value inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:

Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.

Level 2 – Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, with similar interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.). Generally, the types of securities included in Level 2 of a fund are U.S. Treasury bills and certain money market instruments, including those instruments valued at amortized cost pursuant to Rule 2a-7. Generally, amortized cost approximates the current fair value of a security, but since the value is not obtained from a quoted price in an active market, such securities are reflected as Level 2.

Level 3 – Significant unobservable inputs (including a fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments). Generally, the types of securities included in Level 3 of a fund are securities for which there is limited or no observable fair value inputs available, and as such the fair value is determined through independent broker quotations or management’s fair value procedures established by the board of directors. Some of the factors which may be considered in determining fair value are fundamental analytical data relating to the investment; the nature and duration of any restrictions on disposition; trading in similar securities of the same issuer or comparable companies; information from broker-dealers; and/or evaluation of the forces that influence the market in which the securities are purchased and sold.

The fair value levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in these securities.

Refer to the Schedule of Investments for further security classification.

During the fiscal year ended August 31, 2014, there were no transfers between fair value levels or Level 3 securities.

ILLIQUID OR RESTRICTED SECURITIES – A security may be considered illiquid if it lacks a readily available market. Securities are generally considered liquid if they can be sold or disposed of in the ordinary course of business within seven days at approximately the price at which the security is valued by the fund. Illiquid securities may be valued under methods approved by the funds’ board of directors as reflecting fair value. Certain restricted securities may be considered illiquid. Restricted securities are often purchased in private placement transactions, are not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, may have contractual restrictions on resale, and may be valued under methods approved by the funds’ board of directors as reflecting fair value. Certain restricted securities eligible for resale to qualified institutional investors, including Rule 144A securities, are not subject to the limitation on a fund’s investment in illiquid securities if they are determined to be liquid in accordance with procedures adopted by the funds’ board of directors.

At August 31, 2014, the funds did not hold any restricted securities other than the Rule 144A securities disclosed in the Schedules of Investments. As of August 31, 2014, Prime Obligations Fund has investments in illiquid securities with a total value of $270,000 or 2.7% of total net assets.

SECURITY TRANSACTIONS AND INVESTMENT INCOME – For financial statement purposes, the funds record security transactions on the trade date of the security purchase or sale. Interest income, including amortization of bond premium and discount, is recorded on an accrual basis.

DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS – Distributions from net investment income are declared daily and are payable in cash or reinvested in additional shares of the fund at net asset value on the first business day of the following month.

FEDERAL TAXES – Each fund is treated as a separate taxable entity. Each fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company as provided in Sub-chapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended, and to distribute all taxable income, if any, to its shareholders. Accordingly, no provision for federal income taxes is required.

Notes to Financial Statements August 31, 2014, all dollars and shares are rounded to thousands (000)

As of August 31, 2014 the funds did not have any tax positions that did not meet the “more-likely-than-not” threshold of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Generally, tax authorities can examine all tax returns filed for the last three years.

Net investment income and net realized gains (losses) may differ for financial statement and tax purposes because of temporary or permanent book-to-tax differences. To the extent these differences are permanent, reclassifications are made to the appropriate equity accounts in the period in which the differences arise.

On the Statements of Assets and Liabilities the following reclassifications were made:

	August 31, 2014
Fund	Accumulated Net Realized Gain (Loss)			Undistributed (Distributions in Excess of) Net Investment Income		Portfolio Capital
U.S. Treasury Money Market Fund	$	(1	)	$	1	$	—

The character of distributions made during the year from net investment income or net realized gains may differ from its ultimate characterization for federal income tax purposes. In addition, due to the timing of dividend distributions, the fiscal period in which the amounts are distributed may differ from the period that the income or realized gains were recorded by the fund. The distributions paid during fiscal years ended August 31, 2014 and August 31, 2013 (adjusted by dividends payable as of August 31, 2014 and August 31, 2013) were as follows:

	August 31, 2014
Fund	Ordinary Income		Tax-Exempt Income		Capital Gain		Total
Government Obligations Fund	$	1,139	$	—	$	—	$	1,139
Prime Obligations Fund		1,551		—		—		1,551
U.S. Treasury Money Market Fund		1		—		—		1

The funds designate as long-term capital gain dividend, pursuant to Internal Revenue Code Section 852(b)(3), the amount necessary to reduce the earnings and profits of the funds related to net capital gain to zero for the tax year ended August 31, 2014.

	August 31, 2013
Fund	Ordinary Income		Tax-Exempt Income		Capital Gain		Total
Government Obligations Fund	$	2,578	$	—	$	—	$	2,578

Treasury Obligations Fund		8		—		—		8
U.S. Treasury Money Market Fund		2		—		—		2

As of August 31, 2014, the components of accumulated earnings (deficit) on a tax-basis were as follows:

Fund	Undistributed Ordinary Income		Undistributed Tax Exempt Income		Undistributed Long-Term Capital Gains		Accumulated Capital and Post-October Losses			Unrealized Appreciation		Total Accumulated Earnings (Deficit)
Government Obligations Fund	$	65	$	—	$	—	$	(200	)	$	—	$	(135	)

Treasury Obligations Fund		—		—		—		(301	)		—		(301	)
U.S. Treasury Money Market Fund		—		—		—		(5	)		—		(5	)

The differences between book-basis and tax-basis undistributed/accumulated income, gains, and losses are primarily due to distributions declared but not paid by August 31, 2014 and the deferral of wash sale losses.

36 FIRST AMERICAN FUNDS     2014 ANNUAL REPORT

Under the Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010, the funds are permitted to carry forward capital losses incurred in taxable years beginning after December 22, 2010 for an unlimited period. Any losses incurred during those taxable years will be required to be utilized prior to the losses incurred in pre-enactment taxable years. Additionally, post-enactment capital losses that are carried forward will retain their character as either short-term or long-term capital losses rather than being considered all short-term as under the previous law. As of August 31, 2014, the following funds had capital loss carryforwards, which, if not offset by subsequent capital gains, will expire on the fund’s fiscal year-ends as follows:

	Expiration Year
Fund	2015		2016		2017			2018			2019			2020		Indefinite		Total
Government Obligations Fund	$	—	$	—	$	—		$	—		$	(200	)	$	—	$	—	$	(200	)
Prime Obligations Fund		—		—		(30	)		—			—			—		—		(30	)
Treasury Obligations Fund		—		—		—			(301	)		—			—		—		(301	)

During the fiscal year ended August 31, 2014, Government Obligations Fund, Prime Obligations Fund, and Treasury Obligations Fund utilized $26, $8, and $92, respectively, of capital loss carryforwards.

U.S. Treasury Money Market Fund incurred a loss of $5 for tax purposes, for the period from November 1, 2013 to August 31, 2014. As permitted by tax regulations, the fund intends to elect to defer and treat this loss as arising in the fiscal year ending August 31, 2015.

REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS – Each fund (other than U.S. Treasury Money Market Fund) may enter into repurchase agreements with counterparties whom the funds’ investment advisor deems creditworthy, subject to the seller’s agreement to repurchase such securities from the funds at a mutually agreed upon date and price. The repurchase price generally equals the price paid by the fund plus interest, at a rate that is negotiated on the basis of current short-term rates.

Securities pledged as collateral for repurchase agreements are held by the custodian bank or maintained in a segregated account by an unaffiliated third-party custodian bank until the maturity of the respective

repurchase agreement. Provisions of the repurchase agreements are designed to ensure that the value of the collateral, including accrued interest thereon, is suffi-cient in the event of default of the counterparty. If the counterparty defaults and the value of the collateral declines or if the counterparty enters an insolvency proceeding, realization of the collateral by the fund may be delayed or limited.

Pursuant to exemptive relief granted by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), the funds may enter into repurchase agreements (and other short-term investments) on a joint basis.

The table below shows the offsetting assets and liabilities relating to the repurchase agreements shown on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

							Gross Amounts Not Offset in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities
Assets:	Gross Amounts of Recognized Assets		Gross Amounts Offset in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities		Net Amounts Presented in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities		FinancialInstruments		Collateral Pledged (Received)		Net Amount (1)
Repurchase Agreements
Government Obligations Fund	$	7,601,351	$	—	$	7,601,351	$	—	$	7,601,351	$	—
Prime Obligations Fund		2,029,844		—		2,029,844		—		2,029,844		—

	$	15,275,000	$	—	$	15,275,000	$	—	$	15,275,000	$	—

(1) Net amount represents the net amount due (to) from counterparty in the event of a default based on the contractual set-off rights under the agreement. Net amount excludes any over-collateralized amounts.

SECURITIES LENDING – In order to generate additional income, each of the funds other than U.S. Treasury Money Market Fund may lend portfolio securities representing up to one-third of the value of its total assets to broker-dealers, banks or other institutional borrowers of securities. Only Government Obligations Fund, Prime Obligations Fund and Treasury Obligations Fund do so as a principal investment strategy. Each fund’s policy is to maintain collateral in the form of cash, U.S. government securities, or other high-grade debt obligations equal to at least 100% of the value of securities loaned.

FIRST AMERICAN FUNDS     2014 ANNUAL REPORT 37

Notes to Financial Statements August 31, 2014, all dollars and shares are rounded to thousands (000)

The collateral is then “marked to market” daily until the securities are returned. As with other extensions of credit, there may be risks of delay in recovery of the securities or even loss of rights in the collateral should the borrower of the security fail financially. Cash collateral is invested in short-term, high quality U.S. dollar-denominated securities that would be eligible for investment by a money market fund under Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act. As of August 31, 2014, the funds had no securities on loan.

U.S. Bank National Association (“U.S. Bank”), the parent company of the funds’ advisor, serves as the securities lending agent for the funds in transactions involving the lending of portfolio securities on behalf of the fund. U.S. Bank acts as the securities lending agent pursuant to, and subject to compliance with, conditions contained in an exemptive order issued by the SEC. As the securities lending agent, U.S. Bank receives fees of up to 20% of each fund’s net income from securities lending transactions and pays half of such fees to U.S. Bancorp Asset Management, Inc. (“USBAM”) for certain securities lending services provided by USBAM. For the fiscal year ended August 31, 2014, Government Obligations Fund and Treasury Obligations Fund paid $2 and $3, respectively, to U.S. Bank for serving as the securities lending agent. The fund’s income from securities lending is recorded on the Statements of Operations as securities lending income net of fees paid to U.S. Bank.

EXPENSES – Expenses that are directly related to one of the funds are charged directly to that fund. Other operating expenses are allocated to the funds on several bases, including relative net assets of all funds within the First American Family of Funds. Class specific expenses, such as distribution fees and shareholder servicing fees, are borne by that class. Income, other expenses, and realized and unrealized gains and losses of a fund are allocated to each respective class in proportion to the relative net assets of each class.

INTERFUND LENDING PROGRAM – Pursuant to an exemptive order issued by the SEC, the funds, along with other registered investment companies in the First American Family of Funds, may participate in an interfund lending program. This program provides an alternative credit facility allowing the funds to borrow from, or lend money to, other participating funds. The funds did not have any interfund lending transactions during the fiscal year ended August 31, 2014.

DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN – Prior to January 1, 2011, non-interested directors of the First American Family of Funds were able to defer receipt of part or all of their annual compensation under a Deferred Compensation Plan (the “Plan”). Deferred amounts were treated as though equivalent dollar amounts had been invested in shares of open-end First American Funds, as designated

	by each director. The Plan was terminated effective December 31, 2010. All amounts held in the Plan are 100% vested and outstanding account balances under the Plan are obligations of the funds into which amounts were deferred. Deferred amounts remain in the funds until distributed in accordance with the Plan.
	USE OF ESTIMATES IN THE PREPARATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – The preparation of financial statements, in conformity with GAAP, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported results of operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
	EVENTS SUBSEQUENT TO PERIOD END – Management has evaluated fund-related events and transactions that occurred subsequent to August 31, 2014 through the date of issuance of the funds’ financial statements. There were no events or transactions that occurred during this period that materially impacted the amounts or disclosures in the funds’ financial statements.
3	Fees and Expenses
	INVESTMENT ADVISORY FEES – Pursuant to an investment advisory agreement, USBAM manages each fund’s assets and furnishes related office facilities, equipment, research and personnel. The agreement requires each fund to pay USBAM a monthly fee equal, on an annual basis, to 0.10% of the fund’s average daily net assets.
	Effective October 30, 2008 for Treasury Obligations Fund and December 22, 2008 for each other fund, the advisor voluntarily agreed to waive or reimburse certain fees and expenses and the board of directors approved the suspension or reduction of 12b-1 fee payments, as needed, in order to maintain a zero or positive yield for each share class of each fund. Effective February 1, 2011 for Government Obligations Fund Class Z shares and June 1, 2011 for Class Z shares of Prime Obligations Fund, Tax Free Obligations Fund, Treasury Obligations Fund and U.S. Treasury Money Market Fund, the advisor contractually agreed to waive fees and reimburse other fund expenses so that total annual fund operating expenses, after waivers, do not exceed 0.20%. These contractual waivers and reimbursements will remain in effect through October 31, 2014, and may not be terminated prior to such time without the approval of the funds’ board of directors. Waivers and reimbursements by the advisor are otherwise voluntary and may be terminated at any time by the advisor. In order to maintain a minimum yield, or, in the case of Class Z shares, to keep total annual fund operating expenses from exceeding 0.20%, USBAM waived or reimbursed investment advi-

sory fees of $4,075, $584, $2,999 and $911 for Government Obligations Fund, Tax Free Obligations Fund, Treasury Obligations Fund and U.S. Treasury Money Market Fund, respectively, during the fiscal year ended August 31, 2014.

ADMINISTRATION FEES – USBAM serves as the funds’ administrator pursuant to an administration agreement between USBAM and the funds. U.S. Bancorp Fund Services, LLC (“USBFS”) serves as sub-administrator pursuant to a sub-administration agreement between USBFS and USBAM. USBAM is a subsidiary of U.S. Bank. Both U.S. Bank and USBFS are direct subsidiaries of U.S. Bancorp. Under the administration agreement, USBAM is compensated to provide, or compensates other entities to provide, services to the funds. These services include various legal, oversight, administrative, and accounting services. The funds pay USBAM administration fees, which are calculated daily and paid monthly, equal to each fund’s pro rata share of an amount equal, on an annual basis, to 0.20% of the aggregate average daily Class A share net assets and 0.15% of the aggregate average daily net assets for all other share classes of all open-end mutual funds in the First American Family of Funds, up to $8 billion, 0.185% for Class A shares and 0.135% for all other classes on the next $17 billion of the aggregate average daily net assets, 0.17% for Class A shares and 0.12% for all other classes on the next $25 billion of aggregate average daily net assets, and 0.15% for Class A shares and 0.10% for all other classes of the aggregate average daily net assets in excess of $50 billion. All fees paid to the sub-administrator are paid from the administration fee.

In addition to these fees, the funds may reimburse USBAM and the sub-administrator for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred in providing administration services. In order to maintain minimum yields for each fund, or, in the case of Class Z shares, to keep total annual fund operating expenses from exceeding 0.20%, USBAM voluntarily waived or reimbursed administration fees of $22,563, $9,131, $1,002, $10,825, and $1,233 for Government Obligations Fund, Prime Obligations Fund, Tax Free Obligations Fund, Treasury Obligations Fund and U.S. Treasury Money Market Fund, respectively, during the fiscal year ended August 31, 2014.

TRANSFER AGENT FEES – USBFS serves as the funds’ transfer agent pursuant to a transfer agent agreement with FAF. The funds are charged transfer agent fees on a per shareholder account basis, subject to a minimum fee per share class. These fees are charged to each fund based upon the number of accounts within that fund. In addition to these fees, the funds may reimburse USBFS for out-of- pocket expenses incurred in providing transfer agent services.

CUSTODIAN FEES – U.S. Bank serves as the funds’ custodian pursuant to a custodian agreement with FAF. The custodian fee charged for each fund is equal to an annual rate of 0.005% of average daily net assets. All fees are computed daily and paid monthly.

Under the custodian agreement, interest earned on uninvested cash balances is used to reduce a portion of each fund’s custodian expenses. These credits, if any, are disclosed as “Indirect payments from custodian” in the Statements of Operations. Conversely, the custodian charges a fee for any cash overdrafts incurred, which increases the fund’s custodian expenses.

For the fiscal year ended August 31, 2014, custodian fees were neither increased as a result of overdrafts nor decreased as a result of interest earned.

DISTRIBUTION AND SHAREHOLDER SERVICING (12b-1) FEES – Quasar Distributors, LLC (“Quasar”), a subsidiary of U.S. Bancorp, serves as distributor of the funds pursuant to a distribution agreement with FAF. Under the distribution agreement and pursuant to a plan adopted by each fund under rule 12b-1 of the Investment Company Act, each fund pays Quasar a monthly distribution and/or shareholder servicing fee equal to an annual rate of 0.25%, 0.15%, and 0.50% of each fund’s average daily net assets attributable to Class A shares, Class D shares, and Reserve Class shares, respectively. No distribution or shareholder servicing fees are paid by Institutional Investor Class shares, Class Y shares, Class I shares, or Class Z shares. These fees may be used by Quasar to provide compensation for sales support, distribution activities, and/or shareholder servicing activities. In order to maintain minimum yields for each fund, or, in the case of Class Z shares, to keep total annual fund operating expenses from exceeding 0.20%, 12b-1 distribution and shareholder servicing fees were reimbursed or suspended in the amounts of $4,871, $4,537, $332, $4,012 and $430 for Government Obligations Fund, Prime Obligations Fund, Tax Free Obligations Fund, Treasury Obligations Fund, and U.S. Treasury Money Market Fund, respectively, during the fiscal year ended August 31, 2014.

Under the distribution agreement, no amounts were retained by affiliates of USBAM for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2014.

SHAREHOLDER SERVICING (NON-12b-1) FEES – FAF has also adopted and entered into a shareholder servicing plan and agreement with USBAM, under which USBAM has agreed to provide FAF, or will enter into written agreements with other service providers pursuant to which the service providers will provide FAF, with non-distribution-related services to shareholders of Class A, Class D, Class I, Class Y shares, Institutional Investor Class, and Reserve Class shares. Each fund pays USBAM a monthly

In order to maintain minimum yields for each fund, or, in the case of Class Z shares, to keep total annual fund operating expenses from exceeding 0.20%, USBAM voluntarily waived or reimbursed shareholder servicing fees of $24,308, $15,374, $1,494, $12,362, and $1,554 for Government Obligations Fund, Prime Obligations Fund, Tax Free Obligations Fund, Treasury Obligations Fund, and U.S. Treasury Money Market Fund, respectively, during the fiscal year ended August 31, 2014.
	Under this shareholder servicing plan and agreement, no amounts were paid to USBAM for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2014.
	EXPENSE REIMBURSEMENT – In addition to fee waivers, USBAM voluntarily reimbursed expenses of $18 for U.S. Treasury Money Market Fund in order to maintain minimum yields for each share class.
	OTHER EXPENSES – In addition to the investment advisory fees, administration fees, transfer agent fees, custodian fees, and distribution and shareholder servicing fees, each fund is responsible for paying most other operating expenses, including: legal, auditing, registration fees, postage and printing of shareholder reports, fees and expenses of independent directors, insurance, and other miscellaneous expenses.
4	Portfolio Characteristics of the Tax Free Obligations Fund
	The Tax Free Obligations Fund invests in municipal securities. At August 31, 2014, the percentage of portfolio investments by each category was as follows:

	Tax Free Obligations Fund
Weekly Variable Rate Demand Notes		64.0	%
Daily Variable Rate Notes & Bonds		15.6
Other Municipal Notes & Bonds		15.0
Commercial Paper & Put Bonds		5.4
		100.0	%

The Tax Free Obligations Fund invests in longer-term securities that include revenue bonds, tax and revenue anticipation notes, and general obligation bonds. At August 31, 2014, the percentage of total portfolio investments by each revenue source, was as follows:

	Tax Free Obligations Fund
Revenue Bonds		87.3	%
General Obligations		12.7
		100.0	%

5	Indemnifications
	The funds enter into contracts that contain a variety of indemnifications. The funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown. However, the funds have not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts and expect the risk of loss to be remote.
6	Recent Accounting Pronouncements
	In June 2014, the Financial Accounting Standard Board issued ASU No. 2014-11 “Repurchase-to-Maturity Transactions, Repurchase Financings, and Disclosures.” ASU No. 2014-11 makes limited changes to the accounting for repurchase agreements, clarifies when repurchase agreements and securities lending transactions should be accounted for as secured borrowings, and requires additional disclosures regarding these types of transactions. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2014, and for interim periods within those fiscal years. Management is currently evaluating the impact these disclosures will have on the Fund’s financial statement disclosures.
7	Recent Regulatory Changes
	On July 23, 2014, the SEC voted to amend Rule 2a-7, which governs money market funds. The majority of these amendments, except for certain disclosure enhancements, will not take effect for approximately two years. The most significant change is a requirement that institutional prime and institutional municipal money market funds move to a floating net asset value. Government, treasury, retail prime and retail municipal money market funds will continue to use the amortized cost method of valuation and penny rounding in an effort to maintain a stable share price. At this time, the funds’ management is evaluating the impact to the funds.

APPROVAL OF THE FUNDS’ INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT
	The board of directors of the funds, which is comprised entirely of independent directors, oversees the management of each fund and, as required by law, determines annually whether to renew the funds’ investment advisory agreement with USBAM.
	At a meeting on June 17-18, 2014, the board considered information relating to the funds’ investment advisory agreement with USBAM (the “Agreement”). In advance of the meeting, the board received materials relating to the Agreement and had the opportunity to ask questions and request further information in connection with its consideration. The board approved the Agreement through June 30, 2015.
	Although the Agreement relates to all of the funds, the board separately considered and approved the Agreement with respect to each fund. In considering the Agreement, the board, advised by independent legal counsel, reviewed and considered the factors it deemed relevant, including: (1) the nature, quality and extent of USBAM’s services to each fund, (2) the investment performance of each fund, (3) the comparative expense information, including an analysis of USBAM’s cost of providing services and the profitability of USBAM related to the funds, (4) whether economies of scale may be realized as the funds grow and whether fee levels are adjusted to enable fund investors to share in these potential economies of scale, and (5) other benefits that accrue to USBAM through its relationship with the funds. In its deliberations, the board did not identify any single factor which alone was responsible for the board’s decision to approve the Agreement with respect to any fund.
	Before approving the Agreement, the independent directors met in executive session with their independent counsel on numerous occasions to consider the materials provided by USBAM and the terms of the Agreement. Based on its evaluation of those materials, the board concluded that the Agreement is fair and in the best interests of the shareholders of each fund. In reaching its conclusion, the board considered the following:
Nature, Quality and Extent of Investment Advisory Services
	The board examined the nature, quality and extent of the services provided by USBAM to each fund. The board reviewed USBAM’s key personnel who provide investment management services to each fund as well as the fact that, under the Agreement, USBAM has the authority and responsibility to make and execute investment decisions for each fund within the framework of that fund’s investment policies and restrictions, subject to review by the board. The board further considered that USBAM’s duties with respect to each fund include: (i) investment research and security selection, (ii) adherence to (and monitoring compliance with) the funds’ investment policies and restrictions and the Investment Company Act of 1940, and (iii) monitoring the performance of the various organizations providing services to the funds, including the funds’ distributor, sub-administrator, transfer agent and custodian. Finally, the board considered USBAM’s representation that the services provided by USBAM under the Agreement are the type of services customarily provided by investment advisers in the fund industry. The board also considered compliance reports about USBAM from the funds’ Chief Compliance Officer.
	Based on the foregoing, the board concluded that each fund is likely to benefit from the nature, quality and extent of the services provided by USBAM under the Agreement.
Investment Performance of the Funds
	The board considered the performance of each fund, including comparative information provided by an independent data service, regarding the median performance of a group of comparable funds selected by that data service (the “performance universe”) for the one-, three- and five-year periods ended February 28, 2014.
	Government Obligations Fund. The board considered that due to the low interest rate environment prevailing during the period, the range of returns among all funds within the performance universe was generally very narrow. The board noted that the fund’s performance was equal to its performance universe median for the one-, three- and five-year periods on a net-of-expenses basis. The board considered that on a gross-of-expenses basis the fund’s performance was equal to its performance universe median for the one-year period and that it outperformed its performance universe median for the three- and five-year periods. In light of the fund’s competitive performance, the board concluded that it would be in the interest of the fund and its shareholders for the board to renew the Agreement.

42 FIRST AMERICAN FUNDS     2014 ANNUAL REPORT

	Prime Obligations Fund. The board considered that due to the low interest rate environment prevailing during the period, the range of returns among all funds within the performance universe was generally very narrow. The board noted that the fund’s performance was equal to its performance universe median over the one-year period on a net-of-expenses basis although it underperformed its performance universe median by one and two basis points, respectively, over the three- and five-year periods on a net-of-expenses basis. The board considered that the fund underperformed its performance universe median over the one-year period by two basis points on a gross-of-expenses basis and by one basis point during each of the three-and five-year periods on a gross-of-expenses basis. In light of the fund’s competitive performance, the board concluded that it would be in the interest of the fund and its shareholders for the board to renew the Agreement.
	Treasury Obligations Fund. The board considered that due to the low interest rate environment prevailing during the period, the range of returns among all funds within the performance universe was generally very narrow. The board considered that the fund’s performance was equal to its performance universe median over the one-year period on a gross-of-expenses basis and it outperformed its performance universe median by two and three basis points, respectively, for the three- and five-year periods on a gross-of-expenses basis. The board also considered that the fund’s performance was equal to its performance universe median for the one-year period on a net-of-expenses basis although it underperformed its performance universe median by one basis point over the three- and five-year periods on a net-of-expenses basis. In light of the fund’s competitive performance, the board concluded that it would be in the interest of the fund and its shareholders for the board to renew the Agreement.
	Tax Free Obligations Fund. The board considered that, on both a gross-of-expenses basis and a net-of-expenses basis, the fund underperformed the performance universe median for all periods, although the fund underperformed by one basis point for the one- and three-year periods on a net-of-expenses basis. The board considered USBAM’s assertion that the fund’s underperformance is attributable to the fund’s high quality compared to its peers and the entirely tax-free nature of its income. The board noted that the fund is rated AAA by S&P, which is the case with very few of its peers. The board further noted that, as a result, the fund is prohibited from buying unrated securities, which limits the universe of potential investments as compared to the fund’s peers. In addition, the board considered USBAM’s assertion that, although the fund is allowed to invest up to 20% of its assets in taxable securities, including securities subject to the alternative minimum tax, the fund does not invest in these securities, which is not the case for all funds in the performance universe. In light of the fund’s AAA rating, the entirely tax-free nature of its investments and its competitive performance compared to the performance universe for the one- and three-year periods on a net-of-expenses basis, the board concluded that it would be in the interest of the fund and its shareholders for the board to renew the Agreement.
	U.S. Treasury Money Market Fund. The board considered that the fund underperformed its performance universe median for the one-, three- and five-year time periods on a gross-of-expenses basis. The board considered that, on a net-of-expenses basis, the fund’s performance was equal to its performance universe median for the one-year period and it underperformed its performance universe median for the three- and five-year periods by only one basis point. The board considered USBAM’s assertion that, unlike many funds in its performance universe, the fund may not invest in repurchase agreements, which have a positive impact on the performance of the other funds in the performance universe. In light of the foregoing, the board concluded that it would be in the interest of the fund and its shareholders for the board to renew the Agreement.
Costs of Services and Profits Realized by USBAM
	The board reviewed USBAM’s costs in serving as the funds’ investment manager, including the costs associated with the personnel and systems necessary to manage the funds. The board considered the profitability of USBAM and its affiliates resulting from their relationship with each fund. The board compared fee and expense information for each fund to fee and expense information for comparable funds managed by other advisers. The board reviewed advisory fees for private accounts managed by USBAM.
	Using information provided by an independent data service, the board also evaluated each fund’s advisory fee compared to the median advisory fee for other mutual funds similar in size, character and investment strategy, and the board evaluated each fund’s total expense ratio after waivers compared to the median total expense ratio after waivers of comparable funds. In connection with its review of fund fees and expenses, the board considered USBAM’s pricing philosophy, whereby USBAM attempts generally to maintain each fund’s total operating expenses at a level that approximates the median of a peer group of funds selected by an independent data service. The board noted that USBAM has agreed to voluntarily waive fees and reimburse expenses as needed to prevent each fund’s yield on any share class from falling below 0.00%.

FIRST AMERICAN FUNDS     2014 ANNUAL REPORT 43

Notice to Shareholders August 31, 2014 (unaudited)

	The board noted that the information provided by an independent data service reflected that, although the advisory fee after waivers of each fund is higher than its peer group median, each fund’s contractual advisory fee is lower than its expense group median. The board also noted that the net total expense ratio of Prime Obligations Fund and U.S. Treasury Money Market Fund is lower than its peer group median and the net total expense ratio for Government Obligations Fund, Treasury Obligations Fund and Tax Free Obligations Fund is equal to its peer group median. The board concluded that the funds’ advisory fees and total expense ratios are reasonable in light of the services provided.
Economies of Scale in Providing Investment Advisory Services
	The board considered the extent to which each fund’s investment advisory fee reflects economies of scale for the benefit of fund shareholders. Based on information provided by USBAM, the board noted that profitability will likely increase as assets grow over time. The board considered that, although the funds do not have advisory fee breakpoints in place, USBAM has committed to waive advisory fees to the extent necessary to prevent each fund’s yield on any share class from falling below 0.00% and to keep each fund’s total expenses generally in line with the median total expenses of a peer group of funds as selected by an independent data service. The board considered information presented by USBAM to support its assertion that the median total expense ratio of a fund’s peer group likely reflects the effect of any breakpoints in the advisory fee schedules of the funds in that group and any economies of scale which those funds realize. In light of USBAM’s commitment to keep total fund expenses competitive, the board concluded that it would be reasonable and in the best interest of each fund and its shareholders to renew the Agreement.
Other Benefits to USBAM
	In evaluating the benefits that accrue to USBAM through its relationship with the funds, the board noted that USBAM and certain of its affiliates serve the funds in various capacities, including as investment adviser, distributor, administrator, transfer agent, custodian and, for certain of the funds, securities lending agent, and receive compensation from the funds in connection with providing services to the funds. The board considered that each service provided to the funds by USBAM or one of its affiliates is pursuant to a written agreement, which the board evaluates periodically as required by law.
	After full consideration of these factors, the board concluded that approval of each Agreement was in the best interest of the respective fund and its shareholders.

(e)(1) The audit committee’s pre-approval policies and procedures pursuant to paragraph (c)(7) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X are set forth below:

Audit Committee policy regarding pre-approval of services provided by the Independent Auditor

The Audit Committee of the First American Funds (“Committee”) has responsibility for ensuring that all services performed by the independent audit firm for the funds do not impair the firm’s independence. This review is intended to provide reasonable oversight without removing management from its responsibility for day-to-day operations. In this regard, the Committee should:

• Understand the nature of the professional services expected to be provided and their impact on auditor independence and audit quality

• Examine and evaluate the safeguards put into place by the Company and the auditor to safeguard independence

• Meet quarterly with the partner of the independent audit firm

• Consider approving categories of service that are not deemed to impair independence for a one-year period

It is important that a qualitative rather than a mere quantitative evaluation be performed by the Committee in discharging its responsibilities.

Policy for Audit and Non-Audit Services Provided to the Funds

On an annual basis, the Committee will review and consider whether to pre-approve the financial plan for audit fees as well as categories of audit-related and non-audit services that may be performed by the funds’ independent audit firm directly for the funds. At least annually the Committee will receive a report from the independent audit firm of all audit and non-audit services, which were approved during the year.

The engagement of the independent audit firm for any non-audit service requires the written pre-approval of the Treasurer of the funds and all non-audit services performed by the independent audit firm will be disclosed in the required SEC periodic filings.

In connection with the Committee review and pre-approval responsibilities, the review by the Committee will consist of the following:

Audit Services

The categories of audit services and related fees to be reviewed and considered for pre-approval annually by the Committee or its delegate include the following:

• Annual Fund financial statement audits

• Seed audits (related to new product filings, as required)

• SEC and regulatory filings and consents

Audit-related Services

In addition, the following categories of audit-related services are deemed to be consistent with the role of the independent audit firm and, as such, will be considered for pre-approval by the Committee or its delegate, on an annual basis.

• Accounting consultations

• Fund merger support services

• Other accounting related matters

• Agreed Upon Procedure Reports

• Attestation Reports

• Other Internal Control Reports

Notwithstanding any annual pre-approval of these categories of services, individual projects with an estimated fee in excess of $25,000 are subject to pre-approval by the Committee Chair or its delegate on a case-by-case basis. Individual projects with an estimated fee in excess of $50,000 are subject to pre-approval by the Committee or its delegate on a case-by-case basis.

Tax Services

The following categories of tax services are deemed to be consistent with the role of the independent audit firm and, as such, will be considered for pre-approval by the Committee or its delegate, on an annual basis.

• Tax compliance services related to the filing or amendment of the following:

• Federal, state and local income tax compliance, and

• Sales and use tax compliance

• Timely RIC qualification reviews

• Tax distribution analysis and planning

• Tax authority examination services

• Tax appeals support services

• Accounting methods studies

• Fund merger support services

• Tax consulting services and related projects

Notwithstanding any annual pre-approval of these categories of services, individual projects with an estimated fee in excess of $25,000 are subject to pre-approval by the Committee Chair or its delegate on a case-by-case basis. Individual projects with an estimated fee in excess of $50,000 are subject to pre-approval by the Committee or its delegate on a case-by-case basis.

Other Non-audit Services

The SEC auditor independence rules adopted in response to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act specifically allow certain non-audit services. Because of the nature of these services, none of these services may be commenced by the independent audit firm without the prior approval of the Committee. The Committee may delegate this responsibility to one or more of the Committee members, with the decisions presented to the full Committee at the next scheduled meeting.

Proscribed Services

In accordance with SEC rules on independence, the independent audit firm is prohibited from performing services in the following categories of non-audit services:

• Management functions

• Accounting and bookkeeping services

• Internal audit services

• Financial information systems design and implementation

• Valuation services supporting the financial statements

• Actuarial services supporting the financial statements

• Executive recruitment

• Expert services (e.g., litigation support)

• Investment banking

Policy for Pre-approval of Non-Audit Services Provided to Other Entities within the Investment Company Complex

The Committee is also responsible for pre-approving certain non-audit services provided to U.S. Bancorp Asset Management, Inc., U.S. Bank N.A., Quasar Distributors, LLC, U.S. Bancorp Fund Services, LLC and any other entity under common control with U.S. Bancorp Asset Management, Inc., that provides ongoing services to the funds. The only non-audit services provided to these entities which require pre-approval are those services that relate directly to the operations and financial reporting of the funds.

Although the Committee is not required to pre-approve all services provided to U.S. Bancorp Asset Management, Inc. and other affiliated service providers, the Committee will annually receive a report from the independent audit firm on the aggregate fees for all services provided to U.S. Bancorp and affiliates.

(e)(2) All of the services described in paragraphs (b) through (d) of this Item 4 were pre-approved by the audit committee.

(f) All services performed on the engagement to audit the registrant’s financial statements for the most recent fiscal year end were performed by the principal accountant’s full-time, permanent employees.

(g) The aggregate non-audit fees billed by E&Y to the registrant, the registrant’s investment adviser, and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the adviser that provides ongoing services to the registrant, totaled $757,000 in the fiscal year ended August 31, 2014 and $530,975 in the fiscal year ended August 31, 2013.

(h) The registrant’s audit committee has determined that the provision of non-audit services to the registrant’s 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 is compatible with maintaining E&Y’s independence.
