Dear Investors:

On behalf of the Board of Trustees, I am pleased to submit the 2014 Semi-Annual Report for Plan Investment Fund, Inc. (“PIF”). It is an honor to serve as your new President and Chief Executive Officer and I am thankful for the Board’s shared commitment to PIF. Our Trustees consistently provide outstanding leadership and direction in the strategic and operating activities of our four portfolios.

As you are all aware, on July 23, 2014, the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) adopted Money Market Reform to Rule 2a-7. PIF is well positioned to excel under these new Money Market regulations. We provide an overview of the Money Market Reform regulations as well as PIF’s competitive position in light of these new regulations on PIF’s website, www.pif.com.

As we move forward together into the remaining months of 2014 and beyond, the outlook for PIF is full of opportunity. Thank you for your ongoing support. As always, your ideas or comments regarding Plan Investment Fund are welcome.

Sincerely,

Susan A. Pickar

President and Chief Executive Officer

Investments in money market funds are neither insured nor guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. Although the PIF money market portfolios seek to preserve the value of your investment of $1.00 per share, it is possible to lose money by investing in the portfolios.

Bonds offer a relatively stable level of income, although bond prices will fluctuate providing the potential for principal gain or loss. Intermediate-term, higher quality bonds generally offer less risk than longer term bonds and a lower rate of return. Generally, a fund’s fixed income securities will decrease in value if interest rates rise and vice versa.

This report is intended for shareholders of the Funds and is preceded or accompanied by a current prospectus.

Note 1. Organization

Plan Investment Fund, Inc. (the “Fund”) is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as a diversified open-end registered investment company. The Fund consists of four separate portfolios: the Government/REPO Portfolio, the Money Market Portfolio, the Ultrashort Duration Government Portfolio and the Ultrashort Duration Bond Portfolio (each a “Portfolio” and collectively, the “Portfolios”).

The Government/REPO Portfolio — a money market fund which seeks a high level of current income by investing in U.S. Government obligations and repurchase agreements relating to such obligations.

The Money Market Portfolio — a money market fund which seeks a high level of current income by investing in U.S. Government obligations and repurchase agreements relating to such obligations, and bank and commercial obligations.

The Ultrashort Duration Government Portfolio — a bond fund which seeks total return consistent with current income and capital preservation by investing primarily in U.S. Government securities and U.S. Government agency securities.

The Ultrashort Duration Bond Portfolio — a bond fund which seeks total return consistent with current income and capital preservation by investing primarily in a diversified portfolio of investment-grade debt securities.

Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies

Portfolio Valuation: The Ultrashort Duration Government and the Ultrashort Duration Bond Portfolios’ net asset value (“NAV”) is calculated once daily at the close of regular trading hours on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) (generally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time) on each day the NYSE is open. Fixed income securities are fair valued using price evaluations provided by an independent pricing service approved by the Board of Trustees (the “Board”) which may use the following valuation inputs when available: benchmark yields, reported trades, broker/dealer quotes, issuer spreads, benchmark securities, bids and offers and reference data including market research publications. If the remaining maturities of the fixed-income securities and repurchase agreements is sixty days or less the amortized cost is used as it represents fair value.

Investments in other open-end investment companies, if held, are valued based on the NAV of the investment companies (which use fair value pricing as discussed in their prospectuses). If price quotes are unavailable or deemed unreliable, securities will be fair valued in accordance with procedures adopted by the Board.

For the Government/REPO Portfolio and the Money Market Portfolio, the NAV is calculated as of 12 Noon (Eastern Time) and as of 4:00 p.m. (Eastern Time). This is only done on business days on which purchase orders or redemption orders are placed for that Portfolio and there is sufficient trading in instruments held in that Portfolio so that its NAV might be affected materially. Pursuant to Rule 2a-7 of the 1940 Act, securities are valued using the amortized cost method, which approximates fair value. Under this method, securities are valued at cost when purchased and, thereafter, a constant proportionate accretion and amortization of any discounts and premiums are recorded until effective maturity or sale of the security.

Securities Transactions and Investment Income: For financial reporting purposes, investment transactions are recorded on the trade date. Realized gains and losses on investments sold are recorded on the identified cost basis. Gains and losses on principal paydowns from mortgage backed securities are recorded as interest income on the Statement of Operations. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Market discounts and premiums on securities purchased are amortized on an effective yield basis over the estimated lives of the respective securities for the Ultrashort Duration Government and Ultrashort Duration Bond Portfolios.

Dividends and Distributions to Participation Certificate Holders: Dividends from net investment income of the Portfolios are declared daily and paid monthly. The Government/REPO and Money Market Portfolios intend, subject to the use of offsetting capital loss carryforwards, to distribute net realized short and long-term capital gains, if any, throughout

each year. Distributions, if any, of net short-term capital gain and net capital gain (the excess of net long-term capital gain over the short-term capital loss) realized by the Ultrashort Duration Government and Ultrashort Duration Bond Portfolios, after deducting any available capital loss carryovers, are declared and paid to their shareholders annually. Income dividends and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with U.S. federal income tax regulations, which may differ from United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principals (“U.S. GAAP”). Permanent book and tax basis differences relating to shareholder distributions will result in reclassifications within the components of net assets.

Federal Income Taxes: No provision is made for federal taxes as it is each Portfolio’s intention to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company and to comply with the requirements of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code and to distribute substantially all of its net investment income to Participation Certificate (“PC”) holders, which will be sufficient to relieve each Portfolio from all, or substantially all, federal income and excise taxes. All distributions paid by the Portfolios for the period January 1, 2014 through June 30, 2014 were from ordinary income for U.S. income tax purposes.

Repurchase Agreements: Each Portfolio may enter into repurchase agreements from financial institutions such as banks and broker-dealers subject to the seller’s agreement to repurchase them at an agreed upon date and price (“repurchase agreements”). The repurchase price generally equals the price paid by the Portfolio plus interest negotiated on the basis of current short-term rates. Collateral for repurchase agreements may have longer maturities than the maximum permissible remaining maturity of Portfolio investments. The seller under a repurchase agreement is required on a daily basis to maintain the value of the securities subject to the agreement at not less than the repurchase price. The agreement is conditioned upon the collateral being deposited under the Federal Reserve book entry system or held in a separate account by the Fund’s custodian or an authorized securities depository. The collateral consists of U.S. Government securities the market value of which, on a daily basis, including any accrued interest, is equal to at least 100% of the purchase price plus accrued interest.

Expenses: Expenses are recorded on the accrual basis. Each Portfolio pays the expenses that are directly related to its operations, such as Portfolio management fees or custodial fees. Expenses incurred by the Fund on behalf of each Portfolio, such as trustee or legal fees, are allocated among each of the Portfolios either proportionately based upon each Portfolio’s net assets or using another reasonable basis such as equally across each Portfolio, depending on the nature of the expense.

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

Note 3. Fair Value Measurement

Fair Value Measurement: The inputs and valuation techniques used to measure fair value of the Portfolios’ investments are summarized into three levels as described in the hierarchy below:

 

   

Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical securities

 

   

Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.)

 

   

Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including the Portfolio’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)

Securities held within the Government/REPO Portfolio and the Money Market Portfolio are valued at amortized cost, in accordance with Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act. Generally, amortized cost approximates the current fair value of a security, but since the value is not obtained from a quoted price in an active market, such securities are reflected as Level 2. Fixed-income securities held within the Ultrashort Duration Government Portfolio and the Ultrashort Duration Bond Portfolio with remaining maturities of greater than sixty days are valued at fair value using price evaluations provided by an independent

pricing service which may use the following inputs available: benchmark yields, reported trades, broker/dealer quotes, issuer spreads, benchmark securities, bids and offers and reference data including market research publications. If the remaining maturities of the fixed-income securities and repurchase agreements is sixty days or less the amortized cost is used as it represents fair value. A summary of the inputs used to value the Portfolios’ net assets as of June 30, 2014 is as follows:

* Please refer to the schedule of investments for industry and security type breakouts.

At the end of each calendar quarter, management evaluates the Levels 1, 2 and 3 assets and liabilities. Various factors are considered, such as changes in market activity from the prior reporting period; whether or not a broker is willing to execute at the quoted price, the depth and consistency of prices from third party services.

Due to the inherent uncertainty of determining the fair value of investments that do not have a readily available fair value, the fair value of the Portfolios’ investments may fluctuate from period to period. Additionally, the fair value of investments may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a readily available market existed for such investments and may differ materially from the values the Portfolios’ may ultimately realize. Further, such investments may be subject to legal and other restrictions on resale or otherwise less liquid than publicly traded securities.

For the six months ended June 30, 2014, there were no transfers between Levels 1, 2 and 3 for the Portfolios. The portfolios disclose all transfers between levels based on valuations at the end of each reporting period.

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

Note 4. Transactions with Affiliates, Related Parties and Other Fee Arrangements

The Fund has entered into agreements for advisory, service agent, administrative, custodian and transfer agent services as follows:

BCS Financial Services Corporation (the “Administrator”), a related party of the Fund, serves as the Fund’s administrator with respect to the Fund’s overall operations and relations with holders of PCs. Certain officers or employees of the Administrator are also officers of the Fund. All officers serve without compensation from the Fund. As compensation for its services, each Portfolio pays the Administrator fee, computed daily and paid monthly, at an annual rate not to exceed 0.05% of the average daily net assets of each of the Fund’s Portfolios.

BlackRock Advisors, LLC (“BALLC”), a wholly-owned indirect subsidiary of BlackRock, Inc., serves as the Government/ REPO Portfolio’s and Money Market Portfolio’s investment advisor and service agent. The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. is the largest stockholder and an affiliate, for 1940 Act purposes, of BlackRock, Inc. As compensation for its services, the Government/REPO and Money Market Portfolios pay BALLC a fee, computed daily and paid monthly based upon an annualized percentage of the average net assets of each of the Portfolios, at the following rate: 0.20% of the first $250 million, 0.15% of the next $250 million, 0.12% of the next $250 million, 0.10% of the next $250 million, and 0.08% of amounts in excess of $1 billion.

BALLC has agreed to reduce the fees otherwise payable to it to the extent necessary to reduce the ordinary operating expenses of the Government/REPO Portfolio and Money Market Portfolio so that they individually do not exceed 0.30 of one percent (0.30%) of each Portfolio’s average net assets for the year. BALLC and the Administrator have agreed to waive fees (“other fee waivers”) such that the Government/REPO Portfolio’s ordinary operating expenses do not exceed 0.10 of one percent (0.10%) of the Portfolio’s average net assets. BALLC has agreed to waive fees to cap the total expense of the Money Market Portfolio at 17.5 basis points for those assets up to $1 billion, 16.0 basis points for those assets between $1 billion and $2 billion, and 15.5 basis points for those assets above $2 billion. The Administrator has agreed to waive one basis point of its contractual fees relating to the Money Market Portfolio. The Administrator and BALLC cannot terminate such fee waivers prior to May 1, 2015 without the consent of the Board of Trustees of the Fund.

For the Government/REPO Portfolio and the Money Market Portfolio, the Administrator has further agreed that if for any day, after giving effect to all expenses, including without limitation any extraordinary expenses, the “portfolio yield” would be less than 0.01%, the Administrator shall waive that portion of its fees for such day so that after giving effect to such waiver and any other fee waivers, the portfolio yield for such day would be not less than 0.01%. The Administrator has agreed that if after giving effect to such waiver and other fee waivers, the portfolio yield for such day would be less than 0.01%, the Administrator shall waive all of its fees for such day. BALLC has further agreed that if for any day, after giving effect to any other fee waivers and the Administrator fee waiver, the portfolio yield would be less than 0.01%, BALLC shall waive that portion of its fees for such day so that after giving effect to such waiver, the other fee waivers and the Administrator fee waiver, the portfolio yield for such day would be not less than 0.01%. BALLC has agreed that if after giving effect to such waiver, the other fee waivers and the Administrator fee waiver, the portfolio yield for such day would be less than 0.01%, BALLC shall waive all of its fees for such day. The Administrator and BALLC cannot terminate such fee waivers prior to May 1, 2015 without the consent of the Board of Trustees of the Fund.

Merganser Capital Management, LLC (“Merganser”) serves as the Ultrashort Duration Government and Ultrashort Duration Bond Portfolios (the “Ultrashort Portfolios”) investment advisor. As compensation for its services the Portfolios paid Merganser a fee, computed daily and paid monthly based on the average aggregate net assets in the Portfolios, at the following rate: 0.20% of the first $250 million, 0.15% of the next $250 million, and 0.10% of amounts in excess of $500 million.

The Administrator has agreed to waive the fees otherwise payable to it to the extent necessary to reduce the ordinary operating expenses of the Ultrashort Duration Government Portfolio and the Ultrashort Duration Bond Portfolio so that they individually do not exceed 0.40 of one percent (0.40%) of each Ultrashort Portfolio’s average daily net assets for the year. Merganser has agreed to waive fees otherwise payable to it by the Fund with respect to the Ultrashort Duration Government Portfolio and the Ultrashort Duration Bond Portfolio, so that such fees, computed daily and payable monthly, based on the

average aggregate net assets held in the Portfolios are at the following rate: 0.15% of the first $200 million, 0.125% of the next $300 million, and 0.10% of amounts in excess of $500 million. The Administrator and Merganser cannot terminate such fee waivers prior to May 1, 2015 without the consent of the Board of Trustees of the Fund.

Merganser may not recover any fees waived with respect to a particular year. The Administrator is entitled to recover, subject to approval of the Board of Trustees of the Fund, fees waived or expenses reimbursed for a period of up to three (3) years from the year in which the Administrator waived such fees and/or reimbursed expenses for the Fund. No recovery will be permitted unless after giving effect thereto, the current expense ratios of each of the Ultrashort Portfolios do not exceed 0.40%.

As a result of the foregoing waivers and reimbursements, for the six months ended June 30, 2014, the Administrator waived $37,850, $69,170, $18,094 and $29,934 which the Administrator was entitled to as the fees for its services as administrator for the Government/REPO Portfolio, Money Market Portfolio, Ultrashort Duration Government Portfolio and Ultrashort Duration Bond Portfolio, respectively. In addition, the Administrator reimbursed expenses of $13,911, $33,835 and $7,551 for the Government/REPO Portfolio, Ultrashort Duration Government Portfolio and Ultrashort Duration Bond Portfolio, respectively. BALLC waived $150,794 and $275,385 of advisory fees payable for the Government/REPO Portfolio and Money Market Portfolio, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2014. Merganser waived $18,129 and $30,002 of advisory fees payable by the Ultrashort Duration Government Portfolio and Ultrashort Duration Bond Portfolio, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2014.

The Bank of New York Mellon (the “Custodian”) acts as custodian of the Fund’s assets and BNY Mellon Investment Servicing (US) Inc. (“BNY Mellon”) acts as the Fund’s accounting agent, transfer agent and dividend disbursing agent. Both the Custodian and BNY Mellon are wholly owned subsidiaries of The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation. The Custodian and BNY Mellon earn fees from the Fund for serving in these capacities.

Foreside Fund Services is the Fund’s distributor (the “Distributor”). The Distributor is neither affiliated with the Administrator, BALLC, Merganser, The Bank of New York nor its affiliated companies. The Fund does not have a distribution plan (under Rule 12b-1 of the Act); accordingly, the Distributor receives no compensation from the Fund for its distribution services.

Pursuant to a Compliance Services Agreement with the Fund, Foreside Compliance Services, LLC (“FCS”), an affiliate of the Distributor, provides a Chief Compliance Officer to the Fund as well as some additional compliance support functions. FCS is paid an annual fee plus out of pocket expenses for these services related to the Fund’s compliance program. The Fund’s Chief Compliance Officer is a Managing Director of FCS.

Note 5. Tax Information

The Portfolios have followed the authoritative guidance on accounting for and disclosure of uncertainty in tax positions, which requires the Portfolios to determine whether a tax position is more likely than not to be sustained upon examination, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits of the position. The Portfolios have determined that there was no effect on the financial statements from following this authoritative guidance. In the normal course of business, the Portfolios are subject to examination by federal, state and local jurisdictions, where applicable, for the tax years 2009, 2010, 2011 for the Government/REPO and Money Market Portfolios and 2012 and 2013 for the Government/REPO, Money Market, Ultrashort Duration Government, and Ultrashort Duration Bond Portfolios.

Note 7. Significant Risks

Mortgage-Related and Other Asset-Backed Securities Risk — Mortgage-related and asset-backed securities are subject to certain other risks. The value of these securities will be influenced by the factors affecting the housing market and the assets underlying such securities. As a result, during periods of declining asset values, difficult or frozen credit markets, swings in interest rates, or deteriorating economic conditions, mortgage-related and asset-backed securities may decline in value, face valuation difficulties, become more volatile and/or become illiquid.

Note 8. Subsequent Events

Management has evaluated the impact of all subsequent events on the Fund through the date the financial statements were issued, and has determined that there was the following subsequent event:

On July 23, 2014, the SEC adopted amendments to Rule 2a-7, which governs U.S. money market funds. At Plan Investment Fund, Inc., we have been monitoring the situation closely. The amendments contain the following essential elements:

1. A requirement for floating net asset value (“NAV”) on Institutional Prime and Municipal money market funds

2. An expanded ability of fund boards to impose liquidity fees and suspend redemptions temporarily to address a potential run on a fund

3. Exemption for Government funds that invest 99.5% or more of its total assets in cash, government securities, and repurchase agreements backed solely by government securities

4. An exemption for retail funds

5. Enhanced disclosures to improve transparency around money market operations and risks

Such amendments are effective for financial statements with year ending December 31, 2016. Management is still currently still evaluating the impact of such amendments on our financial statements, but does not believe there will be a significant impact to the Government/REPO Portfolio as it already adheres to the new rules by maintaining at least 99.5% or more of its total assets in cash, government securities, and repurchase agreements backed solely by such securities, however, there could be a significant impact to the Money Market Portfolio.

Fund Expense Examples

(Unaudited)

June 30, 2014

 

As a shareholder of a Portfolio, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees and other Portfolio expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Portfolio 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 six months ended June 30, 2014.

Actual Expenses

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 expense 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 Six Months Ended June 30, 2014” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

The second line of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Portfolio’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Portfolio’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 Portfolio and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of 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. Therefore, the second line of the table 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.

Approval of Investment Advisory Agreements

Board of Trustees’ Consideration of the Investment Advisory Agreements. The Investment Advisory and Service Agreements between Plan Investment Fund, Inc. (“PIF”) and BlackRock Advisors, LLC (“BALLC”) and the Investment Advisory Agreements between PIF and Merganser Capital Management, LLC. (“Merganser”) (collectively, the “Advisory Agreements”), were most recently approved by the Board of Trustees (the “Board” or the “Trustees”) of PIF, including a majority of the Trustees who are not parties to the Advisory Agreements or interested persons (as such term is defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940) of any such party (the “Independent Trustees”), at an in-person meeting of the Board held on April 11, 2014. In determining to approve the Advisory Agreements, the Trustees met with the relevant investment advisory personnel from BALLC and Merganser and considered all information they deemed reasonably necessary to evaluate the terms of the Advisory Agreements. The Board received materials in advance of the meeting relating to its consideration of the Advisory Agreements for the Government/REPO, Money Market, Ultrashort Duration Government and Ultrashort Duration Bond Portfolios, (the “Portfolios”), including, among other things: (i) fees and expense ratios of each Portfolio; (ii) information on the investment performance of each Portfolio in comparison to the investment performance of a peer group of funds; (iii) information with respect to profitability of BlackRock, Inc. and Merganser, for the year ended December 31, 2013; and (iv) information regarding fees paid to service providers. At the December 6, 2013 Board meeting, the Trustees reviewed a report from Lipper, Inc. (“Lipper”), an independent provider of investment company data. The report contained, along with other information, data regarding fees and expense ratios of the Government/REPO, Money Market, Ultrashort Duration Government and Ultrashort Duration Bond Portfolios in comparison to the fees and expense ratios of a peer group of funds and investment performance of those Portfolios in comparison to the investment performance of a peer group of funds.

Fees and Expenses. In approving the Advisory Agreements, the Trustees, including the Independent Trustees, took into account fees, both before and after any fee waivers and expense reimbursements, and expense ratios of each Portfolio against fees and expense ratios of a peer group of funds with similar asset levels and expense structures (a “peer group”). Both the peer group category and the funds within the peer group with respect to the fee and expense comparisons were selected by Lipper for the Portfolios.

The Trustees were also provided with information about the services rendered, and the fee rates offered, to other clients advised by BALLC and Merganser, including other money market portfolios and other ultrashort duration portfolios. Based upon all of the information received, the Trustees concluded that the fees to be paid pursuant to the Advisory Agreements were fair and reasonable.

Nature, Extent and Quality of Services. The Trustees received information concerning the investment philosophy and investment process used by the Investment Advisors in managing the Portfolios. In connection with this information, the Trustees considered the Investment Advisors’ in-house research capabilities as well as other resources available to the Investment Advisors’ personnel. The Trustees also considered the quality of the services provided by the Investment Advisors to the Portfolios. The Trustees received and considered information regarding the procedures of the Investment Advisors designed to fulfill their duties to the Portfolios with respect to compliance matters. The Trustees considered information relating to the education, experience and number of investment professionals and other personnel who provide services under the Advisory Agreements. The reputation of BALLC and Merganser and their financial resources also were taken into consideration. The Trustees concluded that the services provided by the Investment Advisors were consistent with the Portfolios’ requirements and that the Investment Advisors appeared to have the necessary personnel and other resources to meet their obligations under the Advisory Agreements.

Fund Performance. The Board of Trustees, including the Independent Trustees, received and considered information about the investment performance of each Portfolio, as well as the performance of funds with the same investment classification and objective (“performance universe”). The funds included within each Portfolio’s performance universe were selected by Lipper. The Board was provided with performance data over the one, two, three, four, five and ten-year periods ended September 30, 2013 for the Government/REPO and Money Market Portfolios. The Board was provided with performance data over the one-year period ended September 30, 2013 for the Ultrashort Duration Government and Ultrashort Duration Bond Portfolios. The Trustees concluded that the performance of each Portfolio was competitive with its performance universe as reported by Lipper.

Profitability. The Trustees received information regarding the profitability of the individual PIF portfolios for BALLC and Merganser. These portfolios represent a small portion of the total assets which BALLC and Merganser manage.

Economies of Scale. The Independent Trustees received and considered information in the Lipper report regarding economies-of-scale in light of existing breakpoints and the level of assets in the Fund over the past year. The Trustees concluded that the advisory fee structure was reasonable.

Other Benefits to the Investment Advisors. The Board of Trustees, including the Independent Trustees, also took into account not only the advisory fees payable by the Portfolios, but also potential benefits to the Investment Advisors, such as the engagement of affiliates of the Investment Advisors as service providers to the Portfolios for administrative, transfer agency and custodial services. No single factor was considered in isolation or was determinative to the decision of the Board to approve the Advisory Agreements. Rather, the Board concluded, in light of a weighing and balancing of all factors considered that it was in the best interest of each Portfolio to approve the continuation of the Advisory Agreements, including the fees to be charged for services thereunder.
