Arizona Tax Free FUND
Expense Example
As a shareholder of the Arizona Tax Free Fund (the “fund”), 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. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from July 1, 2006, to December 31, 2006.
Actual Expenses
For each class, the first line of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
For each class, the second line of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the 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 this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table 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 table for each class 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.

Intermediate Tax Free FUND
Expense Example
As a shareholder of the Intermediate Tax Free Fund (the “fund”), 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. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from July 1, 2006, to December 31, 2006.
Actual Expenses
For each class, the first line of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
For each class, the second line of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the 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 this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table 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 table for each class 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.

Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
For each class, the second line of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the 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 this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table 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 table for each class 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.

Oregon Intermediate Tax Free FUND
Expense Example
As a shareholder of the Oregon Intermediate Tax Free Fund (the “fund”), 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. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from July 1, 2006, to December 31, 2006.
Actual Expenses
For each class, the first line of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

(“FAIF”), which is a member of the First American Family of Funds. As of December 31, 2006, FAIF offered 39 funds, including the funds listed above. FAIF is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as an open-end investment management company. FAIF’s articles of incorporation permit the board of directors to create additional funds in the future. The Intermediate Tax Free Fund, Short Tax Free Fund, and Tax Free Fund are each diversified open-end management investment companies. The Arizona Tax Free Fund, California Intermediate Tax Free Fund, California Tax Free Fund, Colorado Intermediate Tax Free Fund, Colorado Tax Free Fund, Minnesota Intermediate Tax Free Fund, Minnesota Tax Free Fund, Missouri Tax Free Fund, Nebraska Tax Free Fund, Ohio Tax Free Fund, and Oregon Intermediate Tax Free Fund are each non-diversified open-end management investment companies. Non-diversified funds may invest a large component of their net assets in securities of relatively few issuers.
 
  The funds offer Class A and Class Y shares. The Arizona Tax Free Fund, California Tax Free Fund, Colorado Tax Free Fund, Minnesota Tax Free Fund, Missouri Tax Free Fund, Nebraska Tax Free Fund, Ohio Tax Free Fund, and Tax Free Fund also offer Class C shares. Class A shares of Arizona Tax Free Fund, California Tax Free Fund, Colorado Tax Free Fund, Minnesota Tax Free Fund, Missouri Tax Free Fund, Nebraska Tax Free Fund, Ohio Tax Free Fund, and Tax Free Fund are sold with a maximum front-end sales charge of 4.25%.

Class Y shares have no sales charge and are offered only to qualifying institutional investors and certain other qualifying accounts.
 
  The funds’ prospectuses provide a description of each fund’s investment objective, principal investment strategies, and principal risks. All classes of shares in 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 that class’ servicing or distribution arrangements.
 
  On February 23, 2006, the funds’ board of directors approved a change in the funds’ fiscal year-end from September 30 to June 30, effective with the nine-month fiscal period ended June 30, 2006.
> Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
  The significant accounting policies followed by the funds are as follows:
 
  SECURITY VALUATIONS – Security valuations for the funds’ investments are furnished by an independent pricing service that has been approved by the funds’ board of directors. Debt obligations exceeding 60 days to maturity are valued by an independent pricing service. The pricing service may employ methodologies that utilize actual market transactions, broker-dealer supplied valuations, or other formula-driven valuation techniques. These techniques generally consider such factors as yields or prices of bonds of comparable quality, type of issue, coupon, maturity, ratings, and general market conditions. 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 or from a widely-used quotation system. When market quotations are not readily available, securities are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by procedures established and approved by the funds’ 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 an evaluation of the forces that influence the market in which the securities are purchased and sold. If events occur that materially affect the value of securities between the close of trading in those securities and the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange, the securities will be valued at fair value. The use of fair value pricing by a fund may cause the net asset value of its shares to differ significantly from net asset value that would be calculated without regard to such considerations. At December 31, 2006, the funds held no fair-valued securities. Debt obligations with 60 days or less remaining until maturity will be valued at their amortized cost, which approximates market value. Investments in open-end mutual funds are valued at the respective net asset value of each underlying fund on the valuation date.
 
  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. Security gains and losses are determined on the basis of identified cost, which is the same basis used for federal income tax purposes. The resulting gain/loss is calculated as the difference between the fair value and the underlying cost of the security on the transaction date. Each fund reserves the right to pay part or all of the proceeds from a redemption request in a proportionate share of readily marketable securities in the fund instead of cash.
 
  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 the net asset value on the last business day of each month. Any net realized capital gains on sales of a fund’s securities are distributed to shareholders at least annually.
 
  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/tax differences. These differences are primarily due to book and tax differences for straddle loss deferrals and classification of dividends paid by the funds. To the extent these differences are permanent, reclassifications are made to the appropriate equity accounts in the fiscal period that the differences arise.
 
  The character of distributions made during the six-month period from net investment income or net realized gains may differ from their 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 or year that the income or realized gains (losses) were recorded by the fund. The distributions paid during the six-month period ended December 31, 2006 (estimated), the nine-month fiscal period ended June 30, 2006, and the year ended September 30, 2005, were as follows:

  The difference between book and tax basis unrealized appreciation (depreciation) is primarily due to the tax deferral of losses deferred due to straddles.
 
  As of June 30, 2006, Short Tax Free Fund had a capital loss carryforward of $788, of which $238 will expire in 2013 and $550 will expire in 2014 if not offset by subsequent capital gains.
 
  The Short Tax Free Fund incurred a loss of $448 for tax purposes for the period from November 1, 2005 to June 30, 2006. As permitted by tax regulations, the fund intends to elect to defer and treat those losses as arising in the fiscal year ending June 30, 2007.
 
  FUTURES TRANSACTIONS – In order to protect against changes in the market and to maintain sufficient liquidity to meet redemption requests, each fund may enter into futures contracts. Upon entering into a futures contract, the fund is required to deposit cash or pledge U.S. government securities. The margin required for a futures contract is set by the exchange on which the contract is traded. Subsequent payments, which are dependent on the daily fluctuations in the value of the underlying security or securities, are made or received by the fund each day (daily variation margin) and are recorded as unrealized gains (losses) until the contract is closed. When the contract is closed, the fund records a realized gain (loss) equal to the difference between the proceeds from (or cost of) the closing transaction and the fund’s basis in the contract.
 
  Risks of entering into futures contracts, in general, include the possibility that there will not be a perfect price correlation between the futures contracts and the underlying securities. Second, it is possible that a lack of liquidity for futures contracts could exist in the secondary market, resulting in an inability to close a futures position prior to its maturity date. Third, the purchase of a futures contract involves the risk that a fund could lose more than the original margin deposit required to initiate a futures transaction. These contracts involve market risk in excess of the amount reflected in the fund’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Unrealized gains (losses) on outstanding positions in futures contracts held at the close

  of the year will be recognized as capital gains (losses) for federal income tax purposes. At December 31, 2006, Ohio Tax Free Fund had outstanding futures contracts as disclosed in its Schedule of Investments.
 
  SECURITIES PURCHASED ON A WHEN-ISSUED BASIS – Delivery and payment for securities that have been purchased by a fund on a when-issued or forward-commitment basis can take place up to a month or more after the transaction. Such securities do not earn interest, are subject to market fluctuations, and may increase or decrease in value prior to delivery. Each fund segregates assets with a market value equal to or greater than the amount of its purchase commitments. The purchase of securities on a when-issued or forward-commitment basis may increase the volatility of a fund’s net asset value if the fund makes such purchases while remaining substantially fully invested. At December 31, 2006, the following funds had outstanding commitments to purchase securities on a when-issued or forward-commitment basis:
         
Fund   Cost
 
Intermediate Tax Free Fund
  $ 1,055  
Minnesota Intermediate Tax Free Fund
    1,656  
Missouri Tax Free 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 15% 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, and may have contractual restrictions on resale. 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 December 31, 2006, no fund had investments in illiquid securities.
 
  INVERSE FLOATERS – As part of their investment strategy, the funds may invest in certain securities for which the potential income return is inversely related to changes in a floating interest rate (“inverse floaters”). In general, income on inverse floaters will decrease when short-term interest rates increase and increase when short-term interest rates decrease. Inverse floaters may be characterized as derivative securities and may subject a fund to the risks of reduced or eliminated interest payments and losses of invested principal. In addition, inverse floaters have the effect of providing investment leverage and, as a result, the market values of such securities will generally be more volatile than those of fixed-rate, tax-exempt securities. To the extent the funds invest in inverse floaters, the net asset value of the funds’ shares may be more volatile than if the funds did not invest in such securities. At December 31, 2006, no fund had investments in inverse floaters.
 
  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 evenly across all funds, allocated based on relative net assets of all funds within the First American Family of Funds, or a combination of both methods. 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 December 31, 2006.
 
  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 selected open-end First American Funds as designated by the board of directors. 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.

  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 funds may invest in related money market funds that are series of First American Funds, Inc., subject to certain limitations. In order to avoid the payment of duplicative investment advisory fees to FAF Advisors, which acts as the investment advisor to both the investing funds and the related money market funds, FAF Advisors will reimburse each investing fund an amount equal to that portion of FAF Advisors’ investment advisory fee received from the related money market funds that is attributable to the assets of the investing fund. For financial statement purposes, these reimbursements are recorded as investment income.
 
  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 National Association (“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, and administrative services 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 0.25% of the aggregate average daily net assets of all open-end mutual funds in the First American Family of Funds up to $8 billion, 0.235% on the next $17 billion of the aggregate average daily net assets, 0.22% on the next $25 billion of the aggregate average daily net assets, and 0.20% 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 FAF Advisors and the sub-administrator for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred in providing administration services.
 
  For the six-month period ended December 31, 2006, administration fees paid to FAF Advisors by the funds included in this semiannual report were as follows:

  TRANSFER AGENT FEES – USBFS serves as the funds’ transfer agent pursuant to a transfer agent agreement with FAIF. 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 custodian for each fund pursuant to a custodian agreement with FAIF. 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 six-month period ended December 31, 2006, custodian fees were increased as a result of overdrafts and decreased as a result of interest earned as follows:

  DISTRIBUTION AND SHAREHOLDER SERVICING FEES – Quasar Distributors, LLC (“Quasar”), a subsidiary of U.S. Bancorp, serves as the distributor of the funds pursuant to a distribution agreement with FAIF. Under the distribution agreement, and pursuant to a plan adopted by each fund under Rule 12b-1 of the Investment Company Act, each of the funds pays Quasar a monthly distribution and/or shareholder servicing fee equal to an annual rate of 0.25% and 0.65% of each fund’s average daily net assets of Class A and Class C shares, respectively. No distribution or shareholder servicing fees are paid by Class Y shares. These fees may be used by Quasar to provide compensation for sales support, distribution activities, and/or shareholder servicing activities.
 
  Quasar is currently waiving a portion of its 12b-1 fees for Class A shares, limiting its fees to 0.15% of average daily net assets for California Intermediate Tax Free Fund, Colorado Intermediate Tax Free Fund, Intermediate Tax Free Fund, Minnesota Tax Free Fund, Oregon Intermediate Tax Free Fund, and Short Tax Free Fund.
 
  Prior to October 1, 2006, each of the funds paid Quasar a monthly distribution and/or shareholder servicing fee equal to an annual rate of 1.00% of each fund’s average daily net assets of Class C shares. Quasar waived a portion of its 12b-1 fees for Class C shares, limiting its fees to 0.65% of average daily net assets for Arizona Tax Free Fund, California Tax Free Fund, Colorado Tax Free Fund, Minnesota Tax Free Fund, Missouri Tax Free Fund, Nebraska Tax Free Fund, Ohio Tax Free Fund, and Tax Free Fund.

> Concentration of Credit Risk
  The Arizona Tax Free Fund, California Intermediate Tax Free Fund, California Tax Free Fund, Colorado Intermediate Tax Free Fund, Colorado Tax Free Fund, Minnesota Intermediate Tax Free Fund, Minnesota Tax Free Fund, Missouri Tax Free Fund, Nebraska Tax Free Fund, Ohio Tax Free Fund, and Oregon Intermediate Tax Free Fund invest in debt instruments of municipal issuers in specific states. Although these funds monitor investment concentration, the issuers’ ability to meet their obligations may be affected by economic developments in the specific state or region. Additionally, each state has various guidelines relating to the tax treatment of the income distributed from each fund.
> 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.
> 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. Adoption of FIN 48 is required for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006, and is to

  be applied to all open tax years as of the effective date. Recent Securities and Exchange Commission guidance allows implementing FIN 48 in fund net asset value calculations as late as the funds’ last net asset value calculation in the first required financial statement reporting period. As a result, the funds will incorporate FIN 48 in their semiannual report on December 31, 2007.
 
  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 December 31, 2006, the funds do not believe the adoption of FAS 157 will 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 of the measurements reported in the Statement of Operations for a fiscal period.

Core Bond fund
Expense Example
As a shareholder of the Core Bond Fund (the “fund”), 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. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from July 1, 2006, to December 31, 2006.
Actual Expenses
For each class, the first line of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
For each class, the second line of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the 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 this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table 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 table for each class 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.

This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from July 1, 2006, to December 31, 2006.
Actual Expenses
For each class, the first line of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
For each class, the second line of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the 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 this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table 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 table for each class 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.

U.S. Government Mortgage fund
Expense Example
As a shareholder of the U.S. Government Mortgage Fund (the “fund”), 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. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from June 1, 2006, to December 31, 2006.
Actual Expenses
For each class, the first line of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
For each class, the second line of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the 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 this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table 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 table for each class 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.

(a)  Security purchased within the terms of a private placement memorandum, exempt from registration under Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and may be sold only to dealers in that program or other “qualified institutional buyers.” These securities have been determined to be liquid under the guidelines established by the fund’s board of directors. As of December 31, 2006, the value of these investments was $61,607 or 7.2% of total net assets.
 
(b)  This security or a portion of this security is out on loan at December 31, 2006. Total loaned securities had a value of $345,504 at December 31, 2006. See note 2 in Notes to Financial Statements.
 
(c)  Variable Rate Security – The rate shown is the rate in effect as of December 31, 2006.
 
(d)  Interest only – Represents securities that entitle holders to receive only interest payments on the underlying mortgages. The yield to maturity of an interest only is extremely sensitive to the rate of principal payments on the underlying mortgage assets. A rapid (slow) rate of principal repayments may have an adverse (positive) effect on yield to maturity. The principal amount shown is the notional amount of the underlying mortgages. Interest rate disclosed represents the coupon rate in effect as of December 31, 2006.
 
(e)  Security has been deposited as initial margin on open futures contracts and swap agreements. Yield shown is the effective yield as of December 31, 2006. See note 2 in Notes to Financial Statements.
(f)  The fund may loan securities in return for collateral in the form of cash, U.S. government securities, or other high grade debt obligations. The cash collateral is invested in money market funds and various short-term, fixed income securities, such as repurchase agreements, commercial paper, and other corporate obligations. See note 2 in Notes to Financial Statements.

> Organization
  The Core Bond Fund, High Income Bond Fund, Inflation Protected Securities Fund, Intermediate Government Bond Fund, Intermediate Term Bond Fund, Short Term Bond Fund, Total Return Bond Fund, and U.S. Government Mortgage Fund (each a “fund” and collectively, the “funds”) are mutual funds offered by First American Investment Funds, Inc. (“FAIF”), which is a member of the First American Family of Funds. As of December 31, 2006, FAIF offered 39 funds, including the funds listed above. FAIF is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as an open-end management investment company.

  The funds’ prospectus provides descriptions of each fund’s investment objective, principal investment strategies, and principal risks. All classes of shares in 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’ servicing or distribution arrangements.
 
  On February 23, 2006, the funds’ board of directors approved a change in the funds’ fiscal year-end from September 30 to June 30, effective with the nine-month fiscal period ended June 30, 2006.
> Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
  The significant accounting policies followed by the funds are as follows:
 
  SECURITY VALUATIONS – Security valuations for the funds’ investments are furnished by an independent pricing service that has been approved by the funds’ board of directors. Investments in equity securities that are traded on a national securities exchange (or reported on the Nasdaq national market system) are stated at the last quoted sales price if readily available for such securities on each business day. For securities traded on the Nasdaq national market system, the funds utilize the Nasdaq Official Closing Price which compares the last trade to the bid/ask range of a security. If the last trade falls within the bid/ask range, then that price will be the closing price. If the last trade is outside the bid/ask range, and falls above the ask, the ask price will be the closing price. If the last trade is below the bid, the bid will be the closing price. Other equity securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed equity securities for which no sale was reported on that date are stated at the last quoted bid price. Debt obligations exceeding 60 days to maturity are valued by an independent pricing service. The pricing service may employ methodologies that utilize actual market transactions, broker-dealer supplied valuations, or other formula-driven valuation techniques. These techniques generally consider such factors as yields or prices of bonds of comparable quality, type of issue, coupon, maturity, ratings, and general market conditions. 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 or from a widely used quotation system. When market quotations are not readily available, securities are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by procedures established and approved by the funds’ 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 an evaluation of the forces that influence the market in which the securities are purchased and sold. If events occur that materially affect the value of securities (including non-U.S. securities) between the close of trading in those securities and the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange, the securities will be valued at fair value. Price movements in futures contracts and ADRs (American Depositary Receipts), and various other indices, may be reviewed in the course of making a good faith determination of a security’s fair value. The use of fair value pricing by a fund may cause the net asset value of its shares to differ significantly from net asset value that would be calculated without regard to such considerations.

  Bond Fund, High Income Bond Fund, and Short Term Bond Fund held fair value securities with a value of $438, $0, and $0, respectively, or 0.0%, 0.0% and 0.0%, respectively, of total net assets. Debt obligations with 60 days or less remaining until maturity will be valued at their amortized cost, which approximates market value. Foreign securities are valued at the closing prices on the principal exchanges on which they trade. The prices for foreign securities are reported in local currency and converted to U.S. dollars using currency exchange rates. Exchange rates are provided daily by recognized independent pricing agents. Investments in open-end mutual funds are valued at the respective net asset value of each underlying fund on the valuation date.
 
  SECURITY TRANSACTIONS AND INVESTMENT INCOME – For financial statement purposes, the funds record security transactions on the trade date of the security purchase or sale. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income, including amortization of bond premium and discount, is recorded on an accrual basis. Security gains and losses are determined on the basis of identified cost, which is the same basis used for federal income tax purposes. The resulting gain/loss is calculated as the difference between the fair value and the underlying cost of the security on the transaction date. Each fund reserves the right to pay part or all of the proceeds from a redemption request in a proportionate share of readily marketable securities in the fund instead of cash.
 
  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 last business day of each month. Any net realized capital gains on sales of a fund’s securities are distributed to shareholders at least annually.
 
  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/tax differences. These differences are primarily due to deferred wash sale and straddle losses, paydowns on pass through obligations, expiration of capital loss carryforwards, and tax mark-to-market adjustments under Section 311(e) of the Taxpayer Relief Act of 1997. To the extent these differences are permanent, reclassifications are made to the appropriate equity accounts in the fiscal period that the differences arise.
 
  The tax character of distributions made during the six-month period 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 or year that the income or realized gains (losses) were recorded by the fund. The distributions paid during the six-month period ended December 31, 2006 (estimated), nine-month fiscal period ended June 30, 2006, and the year ended September 30, 2005, were as follows:

  The difference between book and tax basis unrealized appreciation (depreciation) is primarily due to the tax deferral of losses on wash sales and straddles, tax mark-to-market adjustments for certain derivatives in accordance with IRC Section 1256, and tax mark-to-market adjustments made under Section 311(e) of the Taxpayer Relief Act of 1997.

  In accordance with Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code, utilization of all or a portion of the above capital loss carryforwards is limited on an annual basis for Total Return Bond Fund to $7,439 for the current tax year. For the nine-month fiscal period ended June 30, 2006, Short Term Bond Fund and Total Return Bond Fund, had capital loss carryforwards of $604 and $8,799, respectively, that expired unused.
 
  Certain funds incurred a loss for tax purposes for the period from November 1, 2005 to June 30, 2006. As permitted by tax regulations, the funds intend to elect to defer and treat these losses as arising in the fiscal year ending June 30, 2007. The following funds had deferred losses:

  FUTURES TRANSACTIONS – In order to gain exposure or protect against changes in the market and to maintain sufficient liquidity to meet redemption requests, each fund may enter into futures contracts. Upon entering into a futures contract, the fund is required to deposit cash or
68      First American Funds Semiannual Report 2006


Table of Contents

  pledge U.S. government securities. The margin required for a futures contract is set by the exchange on which the contract is traded. Subsequent payments, which are dependent on the daily fluctuations in the value of the underlying security or securities, are made or received by the fund each day (daily variation margin) and are recorded as unrealized gains (losses) until the contract is closed. When the contract is closed, the fund records a realized gain (loss) equal to the difference between the proceeds from (or cost of) the closing transaction and the fund’s basis in the contract.
 
  Risks of entering into futures contracts, in general, include the possibility that there will not be a perfect price correlation between the futures contracts and the underlying securities. Second, it is possible that a lack of liquidity for futures contracts could exist in the secondary market, resulting in an inability to close a futures position prior to its maturity date. Third, the purchase of a futures contract involves the risk that a fund could lose more than the original margin deposit required to initiate a futures transaction. These contracts involve market risk in excess of the amount reflected in the fund’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Unrealized gains (losses) on outstanding positions in futures contracts held at the close of the year will be recognized as capital gains (losses) for federal income tax purposes.
 
  As of December 31, 2006, the following funds had outstanding futures contracts as disclosed in their Schedule of Investments: Core Bond Fund, High Income Bond Fund, Inflation Protected Securities Fund, Intermediate Term Bond Fund, Short Term Bond Fund, Total Return Bond Fund, and U.S. Government Mortgage Fund.
 
  OPTIONS TRANSACTIONS – The funds may utilize options in an attempt to manage market or business risk or enhance returns. When a call or put option is written, an amount equal to the premium received is recorded as a liability. The liability is marked-to-market daily to reflect the current market value of the option written. When an option written expires, a gain is realized in the amount of the premium originally received. If a closing purchase contract is entered into, a gain or loss is realized in the amount of the original premium less the cost of the closing transaction. If a written call option is exercised, a gain or loss is realized from the sale of the underlying security, and the proceeds from such sale are increased by the premium originally received. If a written put option is exercised, the amount of the premium originally received reduces the cost of the security which is purchased upon exercise of the option. As of December 31, 2006, Total Return Bond Fund held options written as disclosed in its Schedule of Investments.
 
  Options purchased are recorded as investments and marked-to-market daily to reflect the current market value of the option contract. If an option purchased expires, a loss is realized in the amount of the cost of the option. If a closing transaction is entered into, a gain or loss is realized to the extent that the proceeds from the sale are greater or less than the cost of the option. If a purchased put option is exercised, a gain or loss is realized from the sale of the underlying security by adjusting the proceeds from such sale by the amount of the premium originally paid. If a purchased call option is exercised, the cost of the security purchased upon exercise is increased by the premium originally paid. As of December 31, 2006, the Inflation Protected Securities Fund and Total Return Bond Fund held options purchased as disclosed in their Schedule of Investments.
 
  INFLATION-INDEXED BONDS – The funds may invest in inflation-indexed bonds. Inflation-indexed bonds are fixed income securities whose principal value is periodically adjusted to the rate of inflation. The interest rate on these bonds is generally fixed at issuance at a rate lower than typical bonds. Over the life of an inflation-indexed bond however, interest will be paid based on a principal value which is adjusted for inflation. Any increase in the principal amount of an inflation-indexed bond will be included as interest income in the Statement of Operations, even though investors do not receive their principal until maturity.
 
  FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION – The books and records of the Inflation Protected Securities Fund and the Total Return Bond Fund relating to the funds’ non-U.S. dollar denominated investments are maintained in U.S. dollars on the following basis:
  •  market value of investment securities, assets, and liabilities are translated at the current rate of exchange; and
 
  •  purchases and sales of investment securities, income, and expenses are translated at the relevant rates of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions.
  The funds do not isolate the portion of gains and losses on investments in debt securities that is due to changes in the foreign exchange rates from that which is due to changes in market prices of debt securities. The funds do isolate the effect of fluctuations in foreign currency rates when determining the gain or loss upon sale or maturity of foreign currency denominated debt obligations pursuant to the federal income tax regulations. Such amounts are categorized as foreign currency gain(loss) for both financial reporting and income tax reporting purposes.
 
  The funds report certain foreign currency-related transactions as components of realized gains for financial reporting purposes, whereas such components are treated as ordinary income for federal income tax purposes.

Notes to  Financial Statements  continued
  For the six-month period ended December 31, 2006, Inflation Protected Securities Fund and Total Return Bond Fund had non-U.S. dollar denominated investments with a total value of $499 and $16,074, respectively, or 0.1% and 2.6%, respectively, of total net assets.
 
  SECURITIES PURCHASED ON A WHEN-ISSUED BASIS – Delivery and payment for securities that have been purchased by a fund on a when-issued or forward-commitment basis can take place up to a month or more after the transaction. Such securities do not earn interest, are subject to market fluctuations, and may increase or decrease in value prior to their delivery. Each fund segregates assets with a market value equal to or greater than the amount of its purchase commitments. The purchase of securities on a when-issued or forward-commitment basis may increase the volatility of a fund’s net asset value if the fund makes such purchases while remaining substantially fully invested. At December 31, 2006, Core Bond Fund, Total Return Bond Fund, and U.S. Government Mortgage Fund had when-issued or forward-commitment securities outstanding with a total cost of $54,028, $34,870, and $36,076, respectively.
 
  In connection with the ability to purchase securities on a when-issued basis, each fund may also enter into dollar rolls in which the fund sells securities purchased on a forward-commitment basis and simultaneously contracts with a counterparty to repurchase similar (same type, coupon, and maturity), but not identical securities on a specified future date. As an inducement for the fund to “rollover” its purchase commitments, the fund receives negotiated amounts in the form of reductions of the purchase price of the commitment. Dollar rolls are considered a form of leverage. As of and for the six-month period ended December 31, 2006, the funds had no outstanding dollar roll transactions.
 
  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 15% 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. At December 31, 2006, Core Bond Fund, High Income Bond Fund, and Short Term Bond Fund had investments in illiquid securities with a total value of $438, $10, and $0, respectively, or 0.0%, 0.0%, and 0.0%, respectively, of total net assets.

  SECURITIES LENDING – In order to generate additional income, a 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. 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. During the six-month period ended December 31, 2006, cash collateral was invested in short-term, high quality U.S. dollar-denominated securities that would have been eligible for investment by a money market fund under Investment Company Act Rule 2a-7.

  FAF Advisors, Inc. (“FAF Advisors”), serves as the securities lending agent for the funds in transactions involving the lending of portfolio securities on behalf of the funds. FAF Advisors 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”). FAF Advisors receives fees as a percentage of each fund’s net income from securities lending transactions. In addition, beginning February 1, 2007, collateral for securities on loan is invested in a money market fund administered by FAF Advisors and FAF Advisors receives an administration fee equal to 0.02% of such fund’s average daily net assets. Fees paid to FAF Advisors by the funds for the six-month period ended December 31, 2006, were as follows:
         
Fund   Amount
 
Core Bond Fund
  $ 209  
High Income Bond Fund

Intermediate Term Bond Fund
    87

    37  
Total Return Bond Fund
    51  
U.S. Government Mortgage Fund
    12  
 
  Income from securities lending is recorded on the Statement of Operations as securities lending income net of fees paid to FAF Advisors.
 
  SWAP AGREEMENTS – The funds may invest in swap agreements. A swap is an agreement to exchange the return generated by one instrument for the return generated by another instrument. The funds may enter into interest rate and credit default swap agreements to manage exposure to interest rates and credit risk.
 
  Interest rate swap agreements involve the exchange by the fund with another party of their respective commitments to pay or receive interest (e.g., an exchange of floating rate payments for fixed rate payments with respect to the notional amount of principal). As of December 31, 2006, the following funds had outstanding interest rate swap agreements: Core Bond Fund, Inflation Protected Securities Fund, Intermediate Term Bond Fund, Short Term Bond Fund, Total Return Bond Fund, and U.S. Government Mortgage Fund.
 
  In a credit default swap, one party makes a stream of payments to another party in exchange for the right to receive a specified return in the event of a default by a specified issuer on its obligation (typically corporate issues or sovereign issues of an emerging country). The fund may use credit default swaps to provide a measure of protection against defaults of sovereign issuers (i.e., to reduce risk where the fund owns or has exposure to the sovereign issuer) or to take an active long or short position with respect to the likelihood of a particular issuer’s default. As of December 31, 2006, the following funds had outstanding credit default swap agreements: Core Bond Fund, Inflation Protected Securities Fund, Intermediate Term Bond Fund, Short Term Bond Fund, Total Return Bond Fund, and U.S. Government Mortgage Fund.
 
  Swaps are marked-to-market daily based upon quotations from market makers and the change in value, if any, is recorded as unrealized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Payments received or made at the beginning of the measurement period are reflected on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. A liquidation payment received or made at the termination of the swap agreement is recorded as realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Net periodic payments received by the fund are included as part of miscellaneous income on the Statement of Operations. Entering into these agreements involves, to varying degrees, elements of credit, market and documentation risk in excess of the amounts recognized on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Such risks involve the possibility that there will be no liquid market for these agreements, that the counterparty to the agreements may default on its obligation to perform or disagree as to the meaning of contractual terms in the agreements, and that there may be unfavorable changes in interest rates.
 
  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 evenly across all funds, allocated based on relative net assets of all funds within the First American Family of Funds, or a combination of both methods. Class specific expenses, such as distribution fees and shareholder servicing fees, are borne by that class. Income, other expenses, and realized and unrealized gains

Notes to  Financial Statements  continued
  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 six-month period ended December 31, 2006.
 
  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 selected open-end First American Funds as designated by the board of directors. 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 amount 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.
> Fees and Expenses
  INVESTMENT ADVISORY FEES – Pursuant to an investment advisory agreement (the “Agreement”), FAF Advisors manages each fund’s assets and furnishes related office facilities, equipment, research, and personnel.

  The funds may invest in related money market funds that are series of First American Funds, Inc., subject to certain limitations. In order to avoid the payment of duplicative investment advisory fees to FAF Advisors, which acts as the investment advisor to both the investing funds and the related money market funds, FAF Advisors will reimburse each investing fund an amount equal to that portion of FAF Advisors’ investment advisory fee received from the related money market funds that is attributable to the assets of the investing fund. For financial statement purposes, these reimbursements are recorded as investment income.
 
  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 National Association (“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 and administrative services 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 a annual basis, to 0.25% of the aggregate average daily net assets of all open-end mutual funds in the First American Family of Funds up to $8 billion, 0.235% on the next $17 billion of the aggregate average daily net assets, 0.22% on the next $25 billion of the aggregate average daily net assets, and 0.20% 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 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 FAIF. 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 custodian for each fund pursuant to a custodian agreement with FAIF. 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 six-month period ended December 31, 2006, custodian fees were increased as a result of overdrafts, and decreased as a result of interest earned as follows:

  DISTRIBUTION AND SHAREHOLDER SERVICING FEES – Quasar Distributors, LLC (“Quasar”), a subsidiary of U.S. Bancorp, serves as the distributor of the funds pursuant to a distribution agreement with FAIF. 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%, and 0.50% of each fund’s average daily net assets of the Class A shares, Class B shares, Class C shares, and Class R shares, respectively. No distribution or shareholder servicing fees are paid by Class Y shares. These fees may be used by Quasar to provide compensation for sales support, distribution activities, and/or shareholder servicing activities.
 
  Quasar is currently waiving fees equal to an annual rate of 0.10% of average daily net assets for Class A shares of the Intermediate Government Bond Fund, Intermediate Term Bond Fund, and Short Term Bond Fund.
 
  For the six-month period ended December 31, 2006, total distribution and shareholder servicing fees waived by Quasar for the funds included in this semiannual report were as follows:

  During the period, FAF Advisors also provided shareholder services pursuant to a shareholder servicing plan and agreement with FAIF with respect to the Class R shares of the Core Bond Fund, High Income Bond Fund, Inflation Protected Securities Fund, Total Return Bond Fund, and U.S. Government Mortgage Fund. Under the shareholder servicing plan and agreement, each fund was required to pay FAF Advisors a monthly shareholder servicing fee equal to an annual rate of 0.15% of each fund’s average daily net assets attributable to Class R shares. FAF Advisors waived all fees under this plan and agreement. This agreement was terminated in September 2006.

> Concentration of Risks
  High Income Bond Fund, Inflation Protected Securities Fund, and Total Return Bond Fund invest in lower-rated
76      First American Funds Semiannual Report 2006


Table of Contents

  (e.g., rated Ba or lower by Moody’s or BB or lower by Standard & Poor’s or Fitch) corporate and foreign debt obligations, which are commonly referred to as “junk bonds.” Lower-rated securities will usually offer higher yields than higher-rated securities. However, there is more risk associated with these investments. These lower-rated bonds may be more susceptible to real or perceived adverse economic conditions than investment grade bonds. Lower-rated securities tend to have more price volatility and carry more risk to principal than higher-rated securities.
> 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.
> New Accounting Pronouncement
  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. Adoption of FIN 48 is required for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006, and is to be applied to all open tax years as of the effective date. Recent Securities and Exchange Commission guidance allows implementing FIN 48 in fund net asset value calculations as late as the fund’s last net asset value calculation in the first required financial statement reporting period. As a result, the funds will incorporate FIN 48 in their semiannual report on December 31, 2007.
 
  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 December 31, 2006, the funds do not believe the adoption of FAS 157 will 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 of the measurements reported in the Statement of Operations for a fiscal period.
