Money market funds seek to preserve the value of your investment at $1.00 per share; however, it is possible to lose money by investing in them. Investments are not insured or guaranteed by the FDIC or any other government entity.

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 usually presented by type (common stock, bonds, etc.) and by industry classification (banking, communications, etc.). 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 present 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 in securities, 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, net investment income ratios, and portfolio turnover rates. 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 portfolio turnover rate represents the percentage of the fund’s holdings that have changed over the course of the period, and gives an idea of how long the fund holds onto a particular security. A 100% turnover rate implies that an amount equal to the value of the entire portfolio is turned over in a year through the purchase and sale of securities.

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.

Expense Examples

Expense Example

As a shareholder of one or more of the funds, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchase payments; and (2) 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 at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from September 1, 2007 to February 29, 2008.

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 by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value in the fund and class 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 5% 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.

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, 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 B, Class C, Class D, Class I, Class Y, Class Z, Institutional Investor Class, and Reserve Class shares. Prior to December 1, 2003, Class A shares were named Class S shares and Piper Jaffray Class shares were named Class A shares. Effective September 26, 2006, the funds discontinued offering Piper Jaffray Class shares. As of such date, Piper Jaffray Class shares were redeemed or exchanged for Class A shares of the respective fund. Class A shares are not subject to sales charges. Class B and Class C shares of Prime Obligations Fund are only available pursuant to an exchange for Class B and Class C shares, respectively, of another fund in the First American Family of Funds or certain other unaffiliated funds, or in establishing a systematic exchange program that will be used to purchase Class B and Class C shares, respectively, of those funds. Class B shares may be subject to a contingent deferred sales charge for six years and automatically convert to Class A shares after eight years. Effective at the close of business on or after June 30, 2008, no new or additional investments will be allowed in Class B shares, except for permitted exchanges and any reinvested dividends. Class C shares may be subject to a contingent deferred sales charge for 12 months and will not convert to Class A shares. Class D, Class I, Class Y, Class Z, Institutional Investor Class, and Reserve Class shares are offered only to qualifying institutional investors. Class B, Class C, and Class I shares are not offered by Government Obligations Fund, Tax Free Obligations Fund, Treasury Obligations Fund, or U.S. Treasury Money Market Fund. Reserve Class shares are offered by Treasury Obligations Fund only.

The funds’ prospectuses provide descriptions of each fund’s 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, including distribution and shareholder servicing fees, may differ among classes. Each class has exclusive voting rights on any matters relating to that class’s 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, which approximates market value. Under the amortized cost method, any discount or premium is amortized ratably to the expected maturity of the security and is included in interest income. In accordance with Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act of 1940, the market 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 pricing 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 six-month period ended February 29, 2008, the differences between the aggregate market price and the aggregate amortized cost of all securities did not exceed 0.25% for any fund.

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. Each fund intends to invest no more than 10% of its net assets (determined at the time of purchase and reviewed periodically) in illiquid securities. 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.

36   First American Funds 2008 Semiannual Report

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 Subchapter 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.

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.

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 (losses) were recorded by the fund. The distributions paid during the six-month period ended February 29, 2008 and fiscal year ended August 31, 2007 (adjusted by dividends payable as of February 29, 2008 and August 31, 2007) were as follows:

As of August 31, 2007, the funds’ most recently completed fiscal year end, the components of accumulated earnings (deficit) on a tax-basis were as follows:

							Accumulated
	Undistributed		Undistributed		Undistributed		Capital and			Unrealized			Total
	Ordinary		Tax Exempt		Long Term		Post-October			Appreciation			Accumulated
Fund	Income		Income		Capital Gains		Losses			(Depreciation)			Earnings

U.S. Treasury Money Market Fund		2,883		—		—		(1	)		—			2,882

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, 2007 and the deferral of wash sale losses.

Government Obligations Fund and Prime Obligations Fund incurred losses of $4 and $2, respectively, for tax purposes, for the period from November 1, 2006 to August 31, 2007. As permitted by tax regulations, the funds intend to elect to defer and treat those losses as arising in the fiscal year ending August 31, 2008.

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 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 until the respective agreements mature. Each such fund may also invest in triparty repurchase agreements. Securities held as collateral for triparty repurchase agreements are maintained in a segregated account by the broker’s custodian bank until the maturity of the repurchase agreement. Provisions of the repurchase agreements are designed to ensure that the market value of the collateral, including accrued interest thereon, is sufficient 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.

SECURITIES LENDING – In order to generate additional income, each fund, other than U.S. Treasury Money Market Fund, may lend securities representing up to one-third of the value of its total assets (which includes collateral for securities on loan) to broker-dealers, banks, or other institutional borrowers of securities. Currently, only Government Obligations Fund lends its securities. 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. 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 Investment Company Act Rule 2a-7. As of February 29, 2008, Government Obligations Fund had securities on loan with a total market value of $99,812.

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 Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). As the securities lending agent, U.S. Bank receives fees as a percentage of each fund’s income from securities lending transactions. For the six-month period ended February 29, 2008, Government Obligations Fund paid $71 to U.S. Bank for serving as the securities lending agent.

Each fund’s income from securities lending is recorded on the Statement 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 Securities and Exchange Commission, 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 six-month period ended February 29, 2008.

DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN – Under a Deferred Compensation Plan (the “Plan”), non-interested directors of the First American Family of Funds may participate and elect to defer receipt of part or all of their annual compensation. Deferred amounts are treated as though equivalent dollar amounts had been invested in shares of

38   First American Funds 2008 Semiannual Report

open-end First American Funds, preselected by each director. All amounts in the Plan are 100% vested and accounts under the Plan are obligations of the funds. 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 U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of net 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.

3 > Fees and Expenses

INVESTMENT ADVISORY FEES – Pursuant to an investment advisory agreement (the “Agreement”), FAF Advisors, Inc. (“FAF Advisors”) manages each fund’s assets and furnishes related office facilities, equipment, research and personnel. The Agreement requires each fund to pay FAF Advisors a monthly fee equal, on an annual basis, to 0.10% of the fund’s average daily net assets. FAF Advisors has agreed to waive fees and reimburse other fund expenses until October 31, 2008, so that total fund operating expenses, as a percentage of average daily net assets, do not exceed the following amounts:

	Share Class

U.S. Treasury Money Market Fund		0.75			—			—			0.60			—			0.45			0.20			0.30			—

ADMINISTRATION FEES – FAF Advisors serves as the funds’ administrator pursuant to an administration agreement between FAF Advisors and the funds. U.S. Bancorp Fund Services, LLC (“USBFS”) serves as sub-administrator pursuant to a sub-administration agreement between USBFS and FAF Advisors. FAF Advisors is a subsidiary of U.S. Bank. Both U.S. Bank and USBFS are direct subsidiaries of U.S. Bancorp. Under the administration agreement, FAF Advisors 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 FAF Advisors 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. During the six-month period ended February 29, 2008, administration fees of $956 were waived on Class Z shares of Prime Obligations Fund.

All fees paid to the sub-administrator are paid from the administration fee. In addition to these fees, the funds may reimburse FAF Advisors and the sub-administrator for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred in providing administration services.

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 the custodian” in the Statement of Operations. Conversely, the custodian charges a fee for any cash overdrafts incurred, which increases the fund’s custodian expenses.

For the six-month period ended February 29, 2008, custodian fees were increased as a result of overdrafts and decreased as a result of interest earned as follows:

Fund	Increased		Decreased
Government Obligations Fund	$	1	$	3
Prime Obligations Fund		—		32

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%, 1.00%, 1.00%, 0.15%, and 0.50% of each fund’s average daily net assets attributable to Class A shares, Class B shares, Class C 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.

Under these distribution and shareholder servicing agreements, the following amounts were retained by affiliates of FAF Advisors for the six-month period ended February 29, 2008:

Fund	Amount
Government Obligations Fund	$	1,714
Prime Obligations Fund		3,293
Tax Free Obligations Fund		307
Treasury Obligations Fund		10,565
U.S. Treasury Money Market Fund		292

SHAREHOLDER SERVICING (NON-12b-1) FEES – FAF has also adopted and entered into a shareholder servicing plan and agreement with FAF Advisors, under which FAF Advisors 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 FAF Advisors a monthly shareholder servicing fee equal to an annual rate of 0.25% of the average daily net assets attributable to Class A, Class D, Class Y, and Reserve Class shares, a fee equal to an annual rate of 0.20% of the average daily net assets attributable to Class I shares, and a fee equal to an annual rate of 0.10% of the average daily net assets attributable to Institutional Investor Class shares. During the six-month period ended February 29, 2008, shareholder servicing fees of $239 and $278 were waived on Class I shares and Institutional Investor Class shares, respectively, of Prime Obligations Fund, and $56 was waived on Reserve Class shares of Treasury Obligations Fund.

Under this shareholder servicing plan and agreement, the following amounts were paid to FAF Advisors for the six-month period ended February 29, 2008:

Fund	Amount
Government Obligations Fund	$	7,844
Prime Obligations Fund		14,576
Tax Free Obligations Fund		1,990
Treasury Obligations Fund		21,072
U.S. Treasury Money Market Fund		1,043

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. For the six-month period ended February 29, 2008, legal fees and expenses of $18 were paid to a law firm of which an Assistant Secretary of the funds is a partner.

CONTINGENT DEFERRED SALES CHARGES – A contingent deferred sales charge (“CDSC”) is imposed on redemptions made in the Class B shares. The CDSC varies depending on the number of years from time of payment for the purchase of Class B shares until the redemption of such shares. Class B shares automatically convert to Class A shares after eight years.

	Contingent Deferred Sales Charge
	as a Percentage of Dollar
Year Since Purchase	Amount Subject to Charge
First		5.00	%
Second		5.00
Third		4.00
Fourth		3.00
Fifth		2.00
Sixth		1.00
Seventh		—
Eighth		—

A CDSC of 1.00% is imposed on redemptions made in Class C shares for the first twelve months.

The CDSC for Class B shares and Class C shares is imposed on the value of the purchased shares, or the value at the time of redemption, whichever is less. For the six-month period ended February 29, 2008, total front-end sales charges and CDSCs retained by affiliates of FAF Advisors for distributing shares of Prime Obligations Fund were $16.

Prime Obligations Fund Class B shares converted to Class A shares (reflected as proceeds from sales of Class A shares and payments for redemptions of Class B shares) during the six-month period ended February 29, 2008 and the fiscal year ended August 31, 2007 in the amount of 89,125 and 511,476 shares, respectively.

The Tax Free Obligations Fund invests in four different types of municipal securities. At February 29, 2008, the percentage of portfolio investments by each category was as follows:

	Tax Free
	Obligations
	Fund
Weekly Variable Rate Demand Notes		81.2	%

Investment Company		2.6
Commercial Paper & Put Bonds		3.8
		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 February 29, 2008, the percentage of portfolio investments in longer-term securities by each revenue source, was as follows:

	Tax Free
	Obligations
	Fund
General Obligations		44.5	%
Revenue Bonds		41.6
Tax and Revenue Anticipation Notes		13.9
		100.0	%

The implied credit ratings of all portfolio holdings as a percentage of total market value of investments at February 29, 2008, were as follows (unaudited):

	Tax Free
	Obligations
Standard & Poor’s/ Moody’s/Fitch Ratings	Fund
AAA		37.6	%
AA		62.2
A		0.2
		100.0	%

Individual security ratings are based on information from Moody’s Investor Service, Standard & Poor’s, and/or Fitch. If there are multiple ratings for a security the lowest rating is used, unless ratings are provided by all three agencies, in which case the middle rating is used.

6 > 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.

7 > Reimbursement from Affiliate

During October and November of 2007 an affiliate of the funds’ advisor purchased various secured liquidity notes held by Prime Obligations Fund. These notes were purchased for cash at a price equal to the notes’ amortized cost plus accrued interest. The amount shown in the fund’s Statement of Operations as a reimbursement from affiliate is equal to the difference between the fair value of the notes at purchase date and the cash received from the affiliate.

8 > New Accounting Pronouncements

On July 13, 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) released FASB Interpretation No. 48 “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” (“FIN 48”). FIN 48 provides guidance for how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, presented, and disclosed in the financial statements. FIN 48 requires the evaluation of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the funds’ tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions not deemed to meet the “more-likely-than-not” threshold would be recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year. The funds have adopted FIN 48 and as of February 29, 2008 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.

In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“FAS 157”). FAS 157 clarifies the definition of fair value for financial reporting, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and requires additional disclosure about the use of fair value measurements. FAS 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim periods within those fiscal years. As of February 29, 2008, the funds do not believe the adoption of FAS 157 will materially impact the amounts reported in the financial statements; however, additional disclosures will be required about the inputs used to develop the measurements of fair value and the effect of certain measurements reported in the Statement of Operations for a fiscal period.
