Yours truly, /s/ Tim Mundy Tim Mundy Partner Enclosure REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM To the Board of Directors of The RBB Fund, Inc.: We have examined management's assertion included in the accompanying Management Statement Regarding Compliance with Certain Provisions of the Investment Company Act of 1940 that The RBB Fund, Inc. - Money Market Portfolio (the "Fund") complied with the requirements of subsections (b) and (c) of Rule 17f-2 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 ("the Act") as of May 31, 2005. Management is responsible for the Fund's compliance with those requirements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on management's assertion about the Fund's compliance based on our examination. Our examination was conducted in accordance with attestation standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, as adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), and, accordingly, included examining, on a test basis, evidence about the Fund's compliance with those requirements and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. Included among our procedures were the following tests performed as of May 31, 2005, and with respect to agreement of security purchases and sales, for the period from April 30, 2005 (the date of the last examination) through May 31, 2005: o Count and inspection of all securities located in the vault of PNC Bank in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania without prior notice to management; o Confirmation of all securities held by institutions in book entry form for the account of PNC Bank, (the "Custodian" of the Fund) by The Depository Trust Company, and The Federal Reserve System, agents of the Custodian; o Confirmation of all securities hypothecated, pledged, placed in escrow, or out for transfer with brokers, pledgees and/or transfer agents; o Reconciliation of all such securities to the books and records of the Fund and the Custodian; o Confirmation of all repurchase agreements with brokers/banks and agreement of underlying collateral with the Custodian's records; and o Agreement of 1 security purchase and 1 security sale or maturity since our last report from the books and records of the Fund to broker confirmations. We believe that our examination provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. Our examination does not provide a legal determination on the Fund's compliance with specified requirements. In our opinion, management's assertion that the Fund complied with the requirements of subsections (b) and (c) of Rule 17f-2 of the Investment Company Act of 1940 as of May 31, 2005 with respect to securities reflected in the investment account of the Fund is fairly stated, in all material respects. This report is intended solely for the information and use of management and the Board of Directors of the Fund and the Securities and Exchange Commission and is not intended to be and should not be used by anyone other than these specified parties. DELOITTE & TOUCHE LLP Philadelphia, Pennsylvania August 12, 2005 Management Statement Regarding Compliance With Certain Provisions of the Investment Company Act of 1940 We, as members of management of The RBB Fund, Inc. - Money Market Portfolio (the "Fund"), are responsible for complying with the requirements of subsections (b) and (c) of rule 17f-2, "Custody of Investments by Registered Management Investment Companies," of the Investment Company Act of 1940. We are also responsible for establishing and maintaining effective internal controls over compliance with those requirements. We have performed an evaluation of the Fund's compliance with the requirements of subsections (b) and (c) of rule 17f-2 as of May 31, 2005, and from April 30, 2005 through May 31, 2005.
