Shareholders' Letter |
Dear Fellow Shareholders,
We are pleased to present the Kinetics Mutual Funds ("Funds") Report for the six-month period ended June 30, 2016. The mid-year returns of various equity market indexes would suggest another year of gradual, modest advances in asset prices against a backdrop of similarly modest economic data. In reality, the path taken to arrive at the mid-year returns has been far more complex and volatile, with large divergences across sectors and asset classes. The S&P 500 Index declined over 10.5% to begin the year, while the Russell 2000 Index declined over 16%. These indexes subsequently rose over 14% and 20%, respectively, off their low levels through the end of June. This corresponded with the yield on the 10-year U.S. Treasury Bond declining from 2.30% on January 1st, to 1.47% on June 30th. In response to the declining interest rate environment, income oriented industries within the S&P 500 Index drove the index higher, with Utilities increasing 23.4%, Telecom companies rising 24.8%, Consumer Staples companies increasing 10.5% and Real Estate Investment Trusts rising 11.2%.
It is apparent that investors have bid up income generating assets in response to declining interest rates. However, this largely ignores the fact that rates have fallen as a result of economic weakness, with Federal Open Market Committee estimates for 2016 and 2017 GDP growth declining from 2.4% to 2.0%, and from 2.2% to 2.0% since the beginning of the year. While lower rates in isolation should increase financial asset values, the offsetting lower future cash flows should have a commensurate impact on valuations. This concept appears lost in the current marketplace, with yield seeking investors accepting considerable capital impairment risk in exchange for dividends ranging from 2%-3%. There is an asymmetry favoring downside risk relative to profit expectations that is not appealing to long-term value investors such as ourselves.
We are far more concerned with the implications of a weaker economy than we are with the relative value of assets due to declining interest rates. Two years ago the consensus 2016 earnings estimate for S&P 500 Index earnings was nearly $140 per share; it now stands at $120— nearly 15% lower. However, the S&P 500 Index has returned nearly 12% during the last two years ended June 30, 2016, which equates to valuation multiple expansion of approximately
2
30%. Corporations have certainly not increased their intrinsic value over this time, and with rates currently pressing all time low levels (as reflected by the 10-year Treasury Bond yield), catalysts for further gains appear lacking.
The Funds have always been managed with a contrarian tilt, reflecting our belief that original thinking often unearths investment opportunities with a margin of safety embedded in the purchase price. The importance of unique investment thinking is at least as important now as it has ever been, with exchange traded fund flows and interest rates driving consensus favorite stocks to ever stretched valuations. In the Funds, we seek to find investments that are not contingent on low rates, economic strength or index fund flows to maintain and grow valuations. We believe that we are able to achieve this through our emphasis on fundamental analysis and idiosyncratic business attributes.
Despite the challenging backdrop for fundamental equity investing, the Funds generated satisfactory results during the first half of the year. Over time, we expect and hope for our returns to decouple from the broader markets. The Funds generated returns as follows during the six-month period ended June 30, 2016 (No-Load Class): The Paradigm Fund +4.51%, The Multi-Disciplinary Income Fund +5.75%, The Small Cap Opportunities Fund +6.37%, The Market Opportunities Fund +5.01%, The Internet Fund -3.89%, The Medical Fund -8.33%, The Alternative Income Fund +1.95% and The Global Fund +6.97%. This compares to returns of +3.84% for the S&P 500 Index and +1.23% for the MSCI All Country World Index.

Investment Commentary |
Dear Fellow Shareholders,
At certain points of the investment cycle, investors face a decision as to whether to conform and follow the consensus, or take a divergent path. Conformity all but guarantees suboptimal investment returns over a reasonably long time period, and while contrarian investing does not guarantee superior returns, it improves an investor's chance of outperforming. However, the question arises as to when it is logical to be contrarian, as opposed to simply being contrarian for the sake of being so. Furthermore, there is usually a temptation to try to time a current but unsustainable trend, hoping that you will have the foresight to reallocate ahead of the eventual reckoning. We believe that this dynamic is currently underway in the form of the indexation and exchange-traded funds ("ETF") trends.
Although various attempts have been made, the ultimate impact of indexation and ETF investing appears to be beyond quantification. However, there is an undeniable impact, as total ETF assets under management have risen from $2 billion in 1996 to $2.1 trillion in 2015, a multiple of over 2,000x. Similarly, the mutual fund industry has expanded from approximately $3.5 trillion in 1996 to over $15.6 trillion in 2015, a multiple of less than 4.5x. While some may cite the current size advantage of mutual funds over ETFs as evidence of the muted impact of indexation, we believe that this fails to incorporate not only indexed mutual funds, but also, more importantly, the net fund flows.
Index domestic equity mutual funds and ETFs received $1.2 trillion in net new cash and reinvested dividends between 2007 and 2015, while actively managed domestic mutual funds have shed over $800 billion over this period. Thus, active managers are net sellers of domestic stocks, while passive index products have been net buyers. The fund flows are likely far more influential on marginal stock prices than are existing assets under management; hence, we believe that this phenomenon has contributed considerably to the underperformance of active managers over the past nine years.
This has undoubtedly created an opportunity for value investors that embrace stocks which are not well represented in indexation strategies, although this course of action continues to be a painful experience, as index constituents have continued to rise with fund flows. However, we believe that we may have reached a tipping point this year, as the net issuance of equity ETFs through the
4
first 6 months of the year was $3.5 billion, which compares to $72.7 billion during the same period last year. Perhaps a reversal in fund flow trends is not even a requisite for this dynamic to shift, and merely a slowing or cessation of flows can have a similar result.
In the wake of the global financial crisis, it was easy and perhaps advisable to embrace a broad market based approach to equity allocations. Stocks were quantifiably inexpensive, and the economy was more likely to improve than to deteriorate. However, seven years removed, it is equally obvious that stocks are richly valued, and the economy is more likely to slow than accelerate rapidly. Thus, investors who embraced indexation early in the recovery and have, thus far, reaped substantial gains, must consider whether this is the time to diverge from the consensus and embrace stocks on the other side of the "ETF divide." We argue that this path logically makes sense, given the lower valuations and general lower sensitivity to the economy and fund flows, although this environment has been a trying experience for several years now.
The Kinetics Mutual Funds all maintain a very high active share, which denotes portfolio holdings that do not significantly overlap with holdings in the indexes. This strategy has been swimming upstream for an extended period of time now, and those following the trend into indexation have benefitted. Never ones to follow a temporary trend, we have remained steadfast in our allocations. It appears as though the confluence of fund flow patterns and valuations are poised to finally stall or reverse the passive indexation trend. We believe that our approach continues to make logical sense and are particularly keen to embrace investments with the potential to perform in a manner uncorrelated with the broader markets.

Kinetics offers the following funds to investors:
The Paradigm Fund focuses on companies that we believe are valued attractively and currently have, or are expected to soon have, sustainable high business returns. The Fund has produced attractive risk adjusted returns since its inception, while maintaining amongst the lowest turnover rates in the industry. The Paradigm Fund is Kinetics' flagship fund.
The Multi-Disciplinary Income Fund seeks to utilize stock options and fixed-income investments in order to provide investors with equity-like returns, but with more muted volatility. At times, the options strategies of the Fund may cause the manager to purchase equity securities.
The Small Cap Opportunities Fund focuses on undervalued and special situation small capitalization equities that we believe have the potential for rewarding long-term investment results. The same investment fundamentals employed by The Paradigm Fund are used to identify such opportunities.
The Medical Fund is a sector fund, offering an investment in scientific discovery within the promising field of medical research, particularly in the development of cancer treatments and therapies. As a sector fund, The Medical Fund is likely to have heightened volatility.
The Internet Fund is a sector fund that focuses on companies engaged in the evolution of Internet-related developments. As such, this Fund has been, and is likely to continue to be, quite volatile. The Internet Fund is not designed to be a major component of one's equity exposure. More recently, this Fund has been focusing on content companies, which we believe will be the winners in the next generation of Internet development.
The Global Fund's mandate is focused on selecting long life cycle international companies that we believe can generate long-term wealth through their business operations. This Fund is presently identifying what we believe to be exciting opportunities in the more developed markets.
6
The Market Opportunities Fund focuses on those companies that benefit from increasing transactional volume or throughput, such as publicly-traded exchanges and credit card processors, or companies that act as facilitators, such as gaming companies, airports and publicly-traded toll roads.
The Alternative Income Fund seeks to provide current income and gains, with a secondary objective of obtaining long-term growth of capital. The Fund utilizes stock options and fixed-income investments and seeks to generate a total return that exceeds most short-term U.S. fixed income indexes, with limited market value variability.

Disclosure
This material is intended to be reviewed in conjunction with a current prospectus, which includes all fees and expenses that apply to a continued investment, as well as information regarding the risk factors, policies and objectives of the Funds. Read it carefully before investing.
Mutual Fund investing involves risk. Principal loss is possible. Because The Internet Fund, The Medical Fund and The Market Opportunities Fund invest in a single industry or geographic region, their shares are subject to a higher degree of risk than funds with a higher level of diversification. Internet, biotechnology and certain capital markets or gaming stocks are subject to a rate of change in technology, obsolescence and competition that is generally higher than that of other industries, hence they may experience extreme price and volume fluctuations.
International investing [for all Funds] presents special risks including currency exchange fluctuation, government regulations, and the potential for political and economic instability. Accordingly, the share prices for these Funds are expected to be more volatile than that of U.S.-only funds. Past performance is no guarantee of future performance.
Because smaller companies [for The Small Cap Opportunities Fund] often have narrower markets and limited financial resources, they present more risk than larger, more well established, companies.
Non-investment grade debt securities [for all Funds], i.e., junk bonds, are subject to greater credit risk, price volatility and risk of loss than investment grade securities.
Further, options contain special risks including the imperfect correlation between the value of the option and the value of the underlying asset. Investments [for The Multi-Disciplinary Income Fund and The Alternative Income Fund] in futures, swaps and other derivative instruments may result in loss as derivative instruments may be illiquid, difficult to price and leveraged so that small changes may produce disproportionate losses to the Funds. To the extent the Funds segregate assets to cover derivative positions, they may impair their ability to meet current obligations, to honor requests for redemption
8
and to manage the investments in a manner consistent with their respective investment objectives. Purchasing and writing put and call options and, in particular, writing "uncovered" options are highly specialized activities that entail greater than ordinary investment risk.
As non-diversified Funds, except The Global Fund, The Alternative Income Fund and The Multi-Disciplinary Income Fund, the value of Fund shares may fluctuate more than shares invested in a broader range of industries and companies. Unlike other investment companies that directly acquire and manage their own portfolios of securities, the Kinetics Mutual Funds pursue their investment objectives by investing all of their investable assets in a corresponding portfolio series of the Kinetics Portfolios Trust.
The information concerning the Funds included in the shareholder report contains certain forward-looking statements about the factors that may affect the performance of the Funds in the future. These statements are based on Fund management's predictions and expectations concerning certain future events and their expected impact on the Funds, such as performance of the economy as a whole and of specific industry sectors, changes in the levels of interest rates, the impact of developing world events, and other factors that may influence the future performance of the Funds. Management believes these forward-looking statements to be reasonable, although they are inherently uncertain and difficult to predict. Actual events may cause adjustments in portfolio management strategies from those currently expected to be employed.
The MSCI All Country World Index (MSCI ACWI) and the Standard & Poor's 500 Index (S&P 500) each represent an unmanaged, broad-basket of stocks. They are typically used as a proxy for overall market performance.

KINETICS MUTUAL FUNDS, INC. — THE FEEDER FUNDS |
Expense Example |
June 30, 2016 (Unaudited) |
Shareholders incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchase payments, reinvestments of dividends or other distributions made by a Fund, redemption fees, and exchange fees, and (2), ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees, and other Fund expenses. This example is intended to help investors understand the ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in a series of Kinetics Mutual Funds, Inc. (each a "Feeder Fund" and collectively the "Feeder Funds"), 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 on January 1, 2016 and held for the entire period from January 1, 2016 to June 30, 2016.
Actual Expenses
The first line item of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses before and after expense reimbursement. Unlike other mutual funds that directly acquire and manage their own portfolio securities, each Feeder Fund invests all or generally all of its investable assets in a corresponding series of The Kinetics Portfolios Trust (each, a "Master Portfolio", and together the "Master Portfolios"), a separately registered investment company. The Master Portfolio, in turn, invests in securities. With this type of organization, expenses can accrue specifically to the Master Portfolio or the Feeder Fund or both. Each Feeder Fund records its proportionate share of the Master Portfolio's expenses, including directed brokerage credits, on a daily basis. Any expense reductions include Fund-specific expenses as well as the expenses allocated from the Master Portfolio.
The Feeder Funds will charge shareholder fees for outgoing wire transfers, returned checks, and exchanges executed by telephone between a Feeder Fund and any other Feeder Fund. The Feeder Funds' transfer agent charges a $5.00 transaction fee to shareholder accounts for telephone exchanges between any two Feeder Funds. The Feeder Funds' transfer agent does not charge a transaction fee for written exchange requests. IRA accounts are assessed a $15.00 annual fee. Finally, as a disincentive to market-timing transactions, the Feeder Funds will assess a 2.00% fee on the redemption or exchange of Fund shares held for less than 30 days. These fees will be paid to the Feeder Funds to help offset transaction costs. The Feeder Funds reserve the right to waive the redemption fee, subject to their sole discretion, in instances deemed not to be disadvantageous to the Feeder Funds or shareholders as described in the Feeder Funds' prospectus.

Expense Example — (Continued) |
June 30, 2016 (Unaudited) |
You may use the information provided in the first line, together with the amounts 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
The second line item of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses before and after expense reimbursements based on the Feeder Funds' actual expense ratios and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which are not the Feeder Funds' actual returns. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses one paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Feeder Funds 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 one's ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges (loads), redemption fees, or exchange fees. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help one determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. If these transactional costs had been included, one's costs would have been higher.

1. Organization
Kinetics Mutual Funds, Inc. (the "Company") is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), and is incorporated in the State of Maryland. The Company is an open-end management investment company issuing its shares in series. One billion shares are authorized for the Company with a par value of $0.001 per share. The series of the Company presently authorized are The Internet Fund ("Internet"), The Global Fund ("Global"), The Paradigm Fund ("Paradigm"), The Medical Fund ("Medical"), The Small Cap Opportunities Fund ("Small Cap"), The Market Opportunities Fund ("Market Opportunities"), The Alternative Income Fund ("Alternative Income"), and The Multi-Disciplinary Income Fund ("Multi-Disciplinary Income"). Investment operations of the Company began on October 21, 1996 (Internet), September 30, 1999 (Medical), December 31, 1999 (Global and Paradigm), March 20, 2000 (Small Cap), January 31, 2006 (Market Opportunities), June 29, 2007 (Alternative Income), and February 11, 2008 (Multi-Disciplinary Income). Each series, unlike many other investment companies which directly acquire and manage their own portfolios of securities, seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing all of its investable assets in a corresponding portfolio series (each a "Master Portfolio" and collectively the "Master Portfolios") of Kinetics Portfolios Trust (the "Trust").
On April 28, 2000 (January 31, 2006, with respect to Market Opportunities, June 29, 2007, with respect to Alternative Income, and February 11, 2008, with respect to Multi-Disciplinary Income), each series in the Company entered into a master-feeder fund structure. By entering into this structure, each series (each a "Feeder Fund" and collectively, the "Feeder Funds") invested all of its assets in a corresponding Master Portfolio which had the same investment objective as the Feeder Fund. Each Master Portfolio has multiple feeder funds. Each Feeder Fund receives a proportionate amount of interest in the Master Portfolio equal to its relative contribution of capital. Thus, each Feeder Fund is allocated its portion of income, gains (losses) and expenses from the Master Portfolio.
35
KINETICS MUTUAL FUNDS, INC. — THE FEEDER FUNDS |
Notes to Financial Statements — (Continued) |
June 30, 2016 (Unaudited) |
Each Feeder Fund's respective interest in the corresponding Master Portfolio as of June 30, 2016, is as follows:
| Interest in |
| Master Portfolio |
The Internet Fund | 99.985 | % |
The Global Fund | 99.907 | % |
The Paradigm Fund | 98.596 | % |
The Medical Fund | 99.870 | % |
The Small Cap Opportunities Fund | 99.981 | % |
The Market Opportunities Fund | 99.961 | % |
The Alternative Income Fund | 99.547 | % |
The Multi-Disciplinary Income Fund | 99.807 | % |
Prior to the conversion to a master-feeder fund structure on April 28, 2000, each then existing series conducted its own investment operations.
As of June 30, 2016, each of the Feeder Funds offers Advisor Class A shares. Advisor Class A shares are subject to an annual Rule 12b-1 fee of 0.25% of average daily net assets and a shareholder servicing fee of 0.25% of average daily net assets. The Advisor Class A shares are also subject to a front-end sales charge of 5.75%.
As of June 30, 2016, each of the Feeder Funds offers Advisor Class C shares. Advisor Class C shares are subject to an annual Rule 12b-1 fee of 0.75% of average daily net assets and a shareholder servicing fee of 0.25% of average daily net assets. If you sell your Advisor Class C shares within 12 months of purchase, you will have to pay a contingent deferred sales charge of 1.00%, which is applied to the NAV of the shares on the date of original purchase or on the date of redemption, whichever is less.
As of June 30, 2016, each of the Feeder Funds offers No Load Class shares. No Load Class shares are subject to a shareholder servicing fee of 0.25% of average daily net assets but do not have 12b-1 fees or a sales charge.
As of June 30, 2016, the Paradigm, Small Cap, Market Opportunities, Alternative Income, and Multi-Disciplinary Income Funds offer Institutional Class shares. Institutional Class shares are subject to a shareholder servicing fee of 0.20% of average daily net assets but do not have 12b-1 fees or a sales
36

Notes to Financial Statements — (Continued) |
June 30, 2016 (Unaudited) |
charge. The Adviser has voluntarily agreed to waive the portion of the Institutional Class shareholder servicing fee in excess of 0.05%.
Each class of shares for each Fund has identical rights and privileges except with respect to the Rule 12b-1 fees paid by the Advisor Class A and Advisor Class C shares, the front-end sales charge on the Advisor Class A shares, the contingent deferred sales charge on Class C, the shareholder servicing fees paid by the Advisor Class A, Advisor Class C, No Load Class and Institutional Class shares, voting rights on matters pertaining to a single class of shares and the exchange privileges of each class of shares. Shares of each Feeder Fund will assess a 2.00% redemption fee (with exceptions) on shares redeemed or exchanged within 30 days of purchase. Income, expenses (other than expenses attributable to a specific class), and realized and unrealized gains or losses on investments are allocated to each class based on its relative net assets.
Refer to the Master Portfolios' financial statements to obtain information about the investment objective of the corresponding Feeder Fund. The financial statements of the Master Portfolios, including the portfolios of investments, are contained elsewhere in this report and should be read in conjunction with the Feeder Funds' financial statements.
2. Significant Accounting Policies
Security Valuation
Master Portfolio securities that are listed on a U.S. securities exchange for which market quotations are readily available are valued at the last quoted sale price on the day the valuation is made. Price information on listed securities is taken from the exchange where the security is primarily traded. All equity securities, including exchange-traded funds, that are traded using the National Association of Securities Dealers' Automated Quotation System ("NASDAQ") are valued using the NASDAQ Official Closing Price ("NOCP"). Foreign securities are valued by an independent pricing service. In the event market quotations are not readily available or if events occur that may materially affect the value of a particular security between the time trading ends on a particular security and the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE"), "fair value" will be determined. Unlisted U.S. securities and listed U.S. securities not traded on the valuation date for which market quotations are readily available are valued at the last bid price. Exchange traded options are
37
KINETICS MUTUAL FUNDS, INC. — THE FEEDER FUNDS |
Notes to Financial Statements — (Continued) |
June 30, 2016 (Unaudited) |
valued at the composite price, using the National Best Bid and Offer quotes ("NBBO"). NBBO consists of the highest bid price and lowest ask price across any of the exchanges on which an option is quoted, thus providing a view across the entire U.S. options marketplace. Composite option pricing calculates the mean of the highest bid price and the lowest ask price across the exchanges where the option is traded. If the composite option price is not available, the mean between the highest bid and the lowest asked quotations at the close of the exchanges will be used. If none of the above are available, exchange traded options are valued at a quote provided by third party pricing agents. Non-exchange traded options for which over-the-counter quotations are not readily available are valued at the mean of the current bid and asked prices. If none of the third party pricing agents publish a price and it is the day of expiration, expiring options will be priced at intrinsic value. Debt obligations (including convertible securities) that are either investment grade or non-investment grade and irrespective of days to maturity will be valued as follows: Debt securities are valued at evaluated mean by one of the authorized third party pricing agents which rely on various valuation methodologies such as matrix pricing and other analytical pricing models as well as market transactions and dealer quotations. Investments in registered open-end investment companies, including money market funds, other than exchange-traded funds are valued at their reported net asset value ("NAV"). Certain instruments, such as repurchase agreements and demand notes, do not have values from third parties and are valued at amortized cost.
Other assets and securities for which no quotations are readily available (including restricted securities) will be valued in good faith at fair value using methods determined by the Board of Trustees of the Master Portfolios. In determining the fair value of a security, the Board of Trustees shall take into account the relevant factors and surrounding circumstances, which may include: (i) the nature and pricing history (if any) of the security; (ii) whether any dealer quotations for the security are available; (iii) possible valuation methodologies that could be used to determine the fair value of the security; (iv) the recommendation of the portfolio manager of the Portfolios with respect to the valuation of the security; (v) whether the same or similar securities are held by other funds managed by the Advisor or other funds and the method used to price the security in those funds; (vi) the extent to which the fair value to be determined for the security will result from the use of data or formula produced by third parties independent of the Advisor; and (vii) the liquidity or illiquidity of the market for the security; and (viii) the value of a foreign
38
KINETICS MUTUAL FUNDS, INC. — THE FEEDER FUNDS |
Notes to Financial Statements — (Continued) |
June 30, 2016 (Unaudited) |
security traded on other foreign markets. At June 30, 2016, 0.00%, 0.72%, 0.00%, 2.59% and 3.04% of the net assets of The Internet Portfolio, The Global Portfolio, The Paradigm Portfolio, The Small Cap Opportunities Portfolio and The Market Opportunities Portfolio, respectively, were fair valued securities. The other Master Portfolios did not hold any fair valued securities at June 30, 2016.
Repurchase Agreements
Each Master Portfolio may enter into repurchase agreements with banks that are members of the Federal Reserve System or securities dealers who are members of a national securities exchange or are primary dealers in U.S. Government Securities. In connection with transactions in repurchase agreements, it is the Trust's policy that the Master Portfolios receive, as collateral, securities whose market value, including accrued interest, at all times will be at least equal to 102% of the amount invested by the Master Portfolio in each repurchase agreement. If the seller defaults and the value of the collateral declines, realization of the collateral by the Master Portfolio may be delayed or limited.
Written Option Accounting
The Master Portfolios may write (sell) call or put options for trading or hedging purposes. When a Master Portfolio writes an option, an amount equal to the premium received by the Master Portfolio is included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an asset and an equivalent liability. The amount of the liability is subsequently marked-to-market to reflect the current value of the option written. By writing the option, the Master Portfolio may become obligated during the term of the option to deliver or purchase the securities underlying the option at the exercise price if the option is exercised. When an option expires on its stipulated expiration date or the Master Portfolio enters into a closing purchase transaction, the Master Portfolio realizes a gain or loss if the cost of the closing transaction differs from the premium received when the option was sold, without regard to any unrealized gain or loss on the underlying security, and the liability related to such option is eliminated. When an option is exercised, the premium originally received decreases the cost basis of the underlying security (or increases the proceeds on the security sold short) and the Master Portfolio realizes a gain or loss from the sale of the security (or closing of the short sale). As collateral for uncovered written options, the Master Portfolio is required under the 1940 Act to maintain assets consisting of cash, cash equivalents or liquid securities. This collateral is required to be adjusted
39

Notes to Financial Statements — (Continued) |
June 30, 2016 (Unaudited) |
daily to reflect the exercise price of the purchase obligation for put options or the market value of the instrument underlying the contract for call options.
Foreign Currency Translations
The books and records of the Master Portfolios are maintained in U.S. dollars. For the Master Portfolios, foreign currency transactions are translated into U.S. dollars on the following basis: (i) market values of investment securities and other assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate of such currencies against the U.S. dollar, as provided by an approved pricing service, and (ii) purchases and sales of investment securities, dividend and interest income and certain expenses at the rates of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions. The Master Portfolios do not isolate and treat as ordinary income that portion of the results of operations arising as a result of changes in the exchange rate from the 3uctuations arising from changes in the market prices of securities held during the period. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments. However, for federal income tax purposes, the Master Portfolios do isolate and treat as ordinary income the effect of changes in foreign exchange rates arising from actual foreign currency transactions and the effect of changes in foreign exchange rates arising between trade date and settlement date.
Restricted and Illiquid Securities
The Master Portfolios may invest in restricted securities. These securities are valued by the Master Portfolios after giving due consideration to pertinent factors including recent private sales, market conditions and the issuer's financial performance. The Master Portfolios have no right to require registration of unregistered securities. At June 30, 2016, the following Master Portfolios held securities restricted to institutional investors (144A securities):
| | | | | | Percentage of |
| | | Market Value | | | Net Assets |
The Alternative Income Portfolio | | $ | 450,889 | | | 1.70 | % |
The Multi-Disciplinary Income Portfolio | | | 22,779,649 | | | 27.11 | % |
An illiquid asset is any asset which may not be sold or disposed of in the ordinary course of business within seven days at approximately the value at

which a Master Portfolio has valued the investment. At June 30, 2016, the following Master Portfolios held illiquid securities:

| | | Market Value | | Net Assets |
The Internet Portfolio | | $ | — | * | | 0.00 | % |
The Paradigm Portfolio | | | — | * | | 0.00 | % |
The Market Opportunities Portfolio | | | — | * | | 0.00 | % |
The Multi-Disciplinary Income Portfolio | | | 192,500 | | | 0.23 | % |
* | Amount is less than $0.50 |
When-Issued Securities
The Master Portfolios may purchase securities on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis. Although the purchase amounts of these securities are established at the time the purchaser enters into the agreement, these securities may be delivered and paid for at a future date. The Master Portfolios record purchases of when-issued securities and reflect the values of such securities in determining net asset value in the same manner as other portfolio securities. The Master Portfolios maintain at all times cash or other liquid assets in an amount at least equal to the amount of outstanding commitments for when-issued securities.
Securities Lending
Each Master Portfolio may lend its portfolio securities to broker-dealers by entering directly into lending arrangements with such broker-dealers or indirectly through repurchase agreements with respect to no more than 331/3% of the total assets of each Master Portfolio (including any collateral posted) or 50% of the total assets of each Master Portfolio (excluding any collateral posted). Securities lending and repurchase transactions will be fully collateralized at all times with cash and/or short-term debt obligations. The Master Portfolios receive interest on the collateral received as well as a fee for the securities loaned.

KINETICS MUTUAL FUNDS, INC. — THE FEEDER FUNDS |
Notes to Financial Statements — (Continued) |
June 30, 2016 (Unaudited) |
Expense Allocation
Common expenses incurred by Feeder Funds are allocated among the Feeder Funds (i) based upon relative average net assets, (ii) as incurred on a specific identification basis, or (iii) equally among the Feeder Funds, depending on the nature of the expenditure.
Each Feeder Fund records its proportionate share of the corresponding Master Portfolio's expenses on a daily basis. In addition, each Feeder Fund accrues its own separate expenses. Any cap on expenses includes Feeder Fund-specific expenses as well as the expenses allocated from the Master Portfolio.
Federal Income Taxes
Each Master Portfolio will be treated as a partnership for federal income tax purposes. As such, each investor in the Master Portfolio via its investment in a Feeder Fund will be subject to taxation on its share of the Master Portfolio's ordinary income and capital gains. It is intended that the Master Portfolio's assets will be managed so an investor in the Master Portfolio via its investment in a Feeder Fund can satisfy the requirements of subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code.
It is the Feeder Funds' policy to meet the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and the Feeder Funds intend to distribute investment company net taxable income and net capital gains to shareholders. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is recorded.
Dividends from net investment income and distributions of net realized capital gains, if any, will be declared and paid at least annually. The character of distributions made during the year from net investment income or net realized gains may differ from the characterization for federal income tax purposes due to differences in the recognition of income, expenses and gain items for financial statement and tax purposes. Additionally, the Feeder Funds may utilize earnings and profits distributed to shareholders on redemption of shares as part of the dividends paid deduction for income tax purposes. Where appropriate, reclassifications between capital accounts are made for such differences that are permanent in nature.
There is no tax liability resulting from unrecognized tax benefits relating to uncertain income tax positions taken or expected to be taken in future tax
42
KINETICS MUTUAL FUNDS, INC. — THE FEEDER FUNDS |
Notes to Financial Statements — (Continued) |
June 30, 2016 (Unaudited) |
returns. As of June 30, 2016, open tax years include the tax years ended December 31, 2012, through 2015. The Funds are also not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next six months.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Other
Realized gains and losses on the sale of investments are calculated on the identified cost basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income is accounted for on the accrual basis and includes amortization of premiums and discounts on the effective interest method. Other noncash dividends are recognized as investment income at the fair value of the property received. Withholding taxes on foreign dividends have been provided for in accordance with the Company's understanding of the applicable country's tax rules and rates.
3. Investment Adviser
The Trust has entered into Investment Advisory Agreements (the "Agreements") with Kinetics Asset Management LLC (the "Adviser"), with whom certain officers and trustees of the Trust are affiliated, to furnish investment advisory services to the Master Portfolios. The Adviser is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Horizon Kinetics LLC. Under the terms of the Agreements, the Master Portfolios, except the Alternative Income Portfolio, compensate the Adviser for its management services at the annual rate of 1.25% of each Master Portfolio's average daily net assets. The Alternative Income Portfolio compensates the Adviser for its management services at the annual rate of 0.90% of the Master Portfolio's average daily net assets.
The Adviser has agreed to waive a portion of its advisory fee and/or reimburse certain operating expenses as deemed appropriate through at least May 1, 2017. The Adviser may discontinue the waiver/reimbursement at any time after

1. Organization
The Kinetics Portfolios Trust (the "Trust") was organized as a Delaware Statutory Trust on March 14, 2000 and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end management investment company issuing its beneficial interests in series, each series representing a distinct portfolio with its own investment objective and policies. The series currently authorized are: The Internet Portfolio, The Global Portfolio, The Paradigm Portfolio, The Medical Portfolio, The Small Cap Opportunities Portfolio, The Market Opportunities Portfolio, The Alternative Income Portfolio and The Multi-Disciplinary Income Portfolio (collectively, the "Master Portfolios"). Pursuant to the 1940 Act, the Master Portfolios, are "non-diversified" series of the Trust, except The Global Portfolio, The Alternative Income Fund and The Multi-Disciplinary Income Portfolio. The Market Opportunities Portfolio commenced operations on January 31, 2006, The Alternative Income Portfolio commenced operations on June 29, 2007 and The Multi-Disciplinary Income Portfolio commenced operations on February 11, 2008. Each of the remaining Master Portfolios commenced operations on April 28, 2000.
Each Master Portfolio is a Master Investment Portfolio in a master-feeder fund structure. Each Master Portfolio has multiple feeder funds invested in the Master Portfolio. By contributing assets to the Master Portfolio, the feeder funds receive a beneficial interest in the Master Portfolio. The Master Portfolio then invests the contributed assets in portfolio securities and allocates income, gains (losses) and expenses to the feeder funds based on the feeder funds' proportionate interests in the Master Portfolio.
Each of the Master Portfolios, except for The Alternative Income Portfolio and The Multi-Disciplinary Income Portfolio, seeks to provide investors with long-term capital growth. The Alternative Income Portfolio seeks to provide current income and gains. The Multi-Disciplinary Income Portfolio seeks to provide investors with total return. The Internet Portfolio invests primarily in the equity securities of U.S. and foreign companies engaged in the Internet and Internet-related activities. The Global Portfolio generally invests in the equity securities of foreign companies that have the ability to facilitate an increase in the growth of their traditional business lines and in U.S. companies benefiting from international economic growth. The Paradigm Portfolio invests primarily in the equity securities of U.S. and foreign companies that the investment adviser believes are undervalued and that have high returns on equity and are well positioned to reduce their costs, extend the reach of their distribution channels

and experience significant growth in their assets or revenues. The Medical Portfolio invests primarily in the equity securities of U.S. and foreign companies engaged in medical research, pharmaceutical treatments and related medical technology industries and related technology industries, generally, with a focus on companies engaged in cancer research and drug development. The Small Cap Opportunities Portfolio invests primarily in the equity securities of U.S. and foreign small capitalized companies that provide attractive valuation opportunities due to special situations such as lack of institutional ownership, lack of significant analyst coverage or companies with sound fundamentals that have experienced a short-term earnings shortfall. The Market Opportunities Portfolio invests primarily in the equity securities of U.S. and foreign companies engaged in capital markets or related to capital markets, as well as companies involved in the gaming industry. The Alternative Income and Multi-Disciplinary Income Portfolios utilize a two-part investment strategy, which includes fixed income and derivatives components.
2. Significant Accounting Policies
Security Valuation
Master Portfolio securities that are listed on a U.S. securities exchange for which market quotations are readily available are valued at the last quoted sale price on the day the valuation is made. Price information on listed securities is taken from the exchange where the security is primarily traded. All equity securities, including exchange-traded funds, that are traded using the National Association of Securities Dealers' Automated Quotation System ("NASDAQ") are valued using the NASDAQ Official Closing Price ("NOCP"). Foreign securities are valued by an independent pricing service. In the event market quotations are not readily available or if events occur that may materially affect the value of a particular security between the time trading ends on a particular security and the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE"), "fair value" will be determined. Unlisted U.S. securities and listed U.S. securities not traded on the valuation date for which market quotations are readily available are valued at the last bid price. Exchange traded options are valued at the composite price, using the National Best Bid and Offer quotes ("NBBO"). NBBO consists of the highest bid price and lowest ask price across any of the exchanges on which an option is quoted thus providing a view across the entire U.S. options marketplace. Composite option pricing calculates the mean of the highest bid price and the lowest asked price across the exchanges where the option is traded. If the composite option price is not
145
KINETICS PORTFOLIOS TRUST — MASTER INVESTMENT PORTFOLIOS |
Notes to Financial Statements — (Continued) |
June 30, 2016 (Unaudited) |
available, the mean between the highest bid and the lowest asked quotations at the close of the exchanges will be used. If none of the above are available, exchange traded options are valued at a quote provided by third party pricing agents. Non-exchange traded options for which over-the-counter quotations are not readily available are valued at the mean of the current bid and asked prices. If none of the third party pricing agents publish a price and it is the day of expiration, expiring options will be priced at intrinsic value. Debt obligations (including convertible securities) that are either investment grade or non-investment grade and irrespective of days to maturity will be valued as follows: Debt securities are valued at evaluated mean by one of the authorized third party pricing agents which rely on various valuation methodologies such as matrix pricing and other analytical pricing models as well as market transactions and dealer quotations. Investments in registered open-end investment companies, including money market funds, other than exchange-traded funds are valued at their reported net asset value ("NAV"). Certain instruments, such as repurchase agreements and demand notes, do not have values from third parties and are valued at amortized cost.
Other assets and securities for which no quotations are readily available (including restricted securities) will be valued in good faith at fair value using methods determined by the Board of Trustees of the Master Portfolios. In determining the fair value of a security, the Board of Trustees shall take into account the relevant factors and surrounding circumstances, which may include: (i) the nature and pricing history (if any) of the security; (ii) whether any dealer quotations for the security are available; (iii) possible valuation methodologies that could be used to determine the fair value of the security; (iv) the recommendation of the portfolio manager of the Portfolios with respect to the valuation of the security; (v) whether the same or similar securities are held by other funds managed by the Adviser or other funds and the method used to price the security in those funds; (vi) the extent to which the fair value to be determined for the security will result from the use of data or formula produced by third parties independent of the Adviser; (vii) the liquidity or illiquidity of the market for the security; and (viii) the value of a foreign security traded on other foreign markets. At June 30, 2016, 0.00%, 0.72%, 0.00%, 2.59% and 3.04% of the net assets of The Internet Portfolio, The Global Portfolio, The Paradigm Portfolio, The Small Cap Opportunities Portfolio and The Market Opportunities Portfolio, respectively, were fair valued securities. The other Master Portfolios did not hold any fair valued securities at June 30, 2016.

June 30, 2016 (Unaudited) |
Repurchase Agreements
Each Master Portfolio may enter into repurchase agreements with banks that are members of the Federal Reserve System or securities dealers who are members of a national securities exchange or are primary dealers in U.S. Government Securities. In connection with transactions in repurchase agreements, it is the Trust's policy that the Master Portfolio receive, as collateral, securities whose market value, including accrued interest, at all times will be at least equal to 102% of the amount invested by the Master Portfolio in each repurchase agreement. If the seller defaults, and the value of the collateral declines, realization of the collateral by the Master Portfolio may be delayed or limited.
Written Options
The Master Portfolios may write (sell) call or put options for trading or hedging purposes. When a Master Portfolio writes an option, an amount equal to the premium received by the Master Portfolio is included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an asset and an equivalent liability. The amount of the liability is subsequently marked-to-market to reflect the current value of the option written. By writing the option, the Master Portfolio may become obligated during the term of the option to deliver or purchase the securities underlying the option at the exercise price if the option is exercised. When an option expires on its stipulated expiration date or the Master Portfolio enters into a closing purchase transaction, the Master Portfolio realizes a gain or loss if the cost of the closing transaction differs from the premium received when the option was sold, without regard to any unrealized gain or loss on the underlying security, and the liability related to such option is eliminated. When an option is exercised, the premium originally received decreases the cost basis of the underlying security (or increases the proceeds on the security sold short) and the Master Portfolio realizes a gain or loss from the sale of the security (or closing of the short sale). As collateral for uncovered written options, the Master Portfolio is required under the 1940 Act to maintain assets consisting of cash, cash equivalents or liquid securities. This collateral is required to be adjusted daily to reflect the exercise price of the purchase obligation for put options or the market value of the instrument underlying the contract for call options.
Foreign Currency Translations
The books and records of the Master Portfolios are maintained in U.S. dollars. For the Master Portfolios, foreign currency transactions are translated into U.S. dollars on the following basis: (i) market values of investment securities and
147
KINETICS PORTFOLIOS TRUST — MASTER INVESTMENT PORTFOLIOS |
Notes to Financial Statements — (Continued) |
June 30, 2016 (Unaudited) |
other assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate of such currencies against the U.S. dollar, as provided by an approved pricing service, and (ii) purchases and sales of investment securities, dividend and interest income and certain expenses at the rates of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions. The Master Portfolios do not isolate and treat as ordinary income that portion of the results of operations arising as a result of changes in the exchange rate from the fluctuations arising from changes in the market prices of securities held during the period. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments. However, for federal income tax purposes, the Master Portfolios do isolate and treat as ordinary income the effect of changes in foreign exchange rates arising from actual foreign currency transactions and the effect of changes in foreign exchange rates arising between trade date and settlement date.
Restricted and Illiquid Securities
The Master Portfolios may invest in restricted securities. These securities are valued by the Master Portfolios after giving due consideration to pertinent factors including recent private sales, market conditions and the issuer's financial performance. The Master Portfolios have no right to require registration of unregistered securities. At June 30, 2016, the following Master Portfolios held securities restricted to institutional investors (144A Securities):
| | | | | Percentage of |
| | Market Value | | | Net Assets |
The Alternative Income Portfolio | | $ | 450,889 | | | | 1.70 | % |
The Multi-Disciplinary Income Portfolio | | | 22,779,649 | | | | 27.11 | % |
An illiquid asset is any asset which may not be sold or disposed of in the ordinary course of business within seven days at approximately the value at which the Master Portfolio has valued the investment. At June 30, 2016, the following Master Portfolios held illiquid securities:
| | | | | Percentage of |
| | Market Value | | | Net Assets |
The Internet Portfolio | | $ | — | * | | | 0.00 | % |
The Paradigm Portfolio | | | — | * | | | 0.00 | % |
The Market Opportunities Portfolio | | | — | * | | | 0.00 | % |
The Multi-Disciplinary Income Portfolio | | | 192,500 | | | | 0.23 | % |

When-Issued Securities
The Master Portfolios may purchase securities on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis. Although the purchase amounts of these securities are established at the time the purchaser enters into the agreement, these securities may be delivered and paid for at a future date. The Master Portfolios record purchases of when-issued securities and reflect the values of such securities in determining net asset value in the same manner as other portfolio securities. The Master Portfolios maintain at all times cash or other liquid assets in an amount at least equal to the amount of outstanding commitments for when-issued securities.
Securities Lending
Each Master Portfolio may lend its portfolio securities to broker-dealers by entering directly into lending arrangements with such broker dealers or indirectly through repurchase agreements with respect to no more than 33¹/3% of the total assets of each Master Portfolio (including any collateral posted) or 50% of the total assets of each Master Portfolio (excluding any collateral posted). Securities lending and repurchase transactions will be fully collateralized at all times with cash and/or short-term debt obligations. The Master Portfolios receive interest on the collateral received as well as a fee for the securities loaned.
Short-Term Investments
The Portfolios may invest in money market funds and short-term high quality debt securities such as commercial paper, repurchase agreements and certificates of deposit. Money market funds typically invest in short-term instruments and attempt to maintain a stable net asset value. While the risk is low, these funds may lose value. At June 30, 2016, The Internet Portfolio, The Global Portfolio, The Paradigm Portfolio, The Medical Portfolio, The Small Cap Opportunities Portfolio, The Market Opportunities Portfolio, and The Multi-Disciplinary Income Portfolio invested approximately 1%, 1%, 3%, 9%, 4%, 0%, and 6%, respectively, of net assets in the Mount Vernon Securities Lending Trust-Prime Portfolio which normally invests in short-term instruments with an objective of maximizing current income to the extent consistent with the preservation of capital and liquidity. Mount Vernon Securities Lending Trust-Prime Portfolio's financial statements are available on the SEC website www.sec.gov.

Expense Allocation
Common expenses incurred by the Master Portfolios are allocated among the Master Portfolios (i) based upon relative average net assets, (ii) as incurred on a specific identification basis, or (iii) equally among the Master Portfolios, depending on the nature of the expenditure. All expenses incurred by the Master Portfolios are allocated to the feeder funds daily based on their proportionate interests in the respective Master Portfolios.
Federal Income Taxes
Each Master Portfolio will be treated as a partnership for federal income tax purposes. As such, each investor in a Master Portfolio will be subject to taxation on its share of the Master Portfolio's ordinary income and capital gains. It is intended that each Master Portfolio's assets will be managed so an investor in the Master Portfolio can satisfy the requirements of subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code.
There is no tax liability resulting from unrecognized tax benefits relating to uncertain income tax positions taken or expected to be taken in future tax returns. As of June 30, 2016, open tax years include the tax years ended December 31, 2012, through 2015. The Master Portfolios are also not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next six months.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Other
Realized gains and losses on the sale of investments are calculated on the identified cost basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income is accounted for on the accrual basis and includes amortization of premiums and discounts on the effective interest method. Other noncash dividends are recognized as investment income at the fair value of the property received. Withholding taxes on foreign dividends have been provided for in accordance with the Trust's understanding of the applicable country's tax rules and rates.

3. Investment Adviser
The Trust has entered into Investment Advisory Agreements (the "Agreements") with Kinetics Asset Management LLC (the "Adviser"), with whom certain officers and trustees of the Trust are affiliated, to furnish investment advisory services to the Master Portfolios. The Adviser is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Horizon Kinetics LLC. Under the terms of the Agreements, the Master Portfolios, except the Alternative Income Portfolio, compensate the Adviser for its management services at the annual rate of 1.25% of each Master Portfolio's average daily net assets. The Alternative Income Portfolio compensates the Adviser for its management services at the annual rate of 0.90% of the Master Portfolio's average daily net assets.
For the six-month period ended June 30, 2016, Master Portfolios incurred the following expenses pursuant to the Agreements:
| Investment Advisory Fees |
The Internet Portfolio | | $ | 729,212 | |
The Global Portfolio | | | 41,273 | |

4. Approval of Investment Advisory Contracts by Trustees of Kinetics Portfolio Trust
At a meeting of the Board of Trustees of the Trust held on March 23, 2016, the Board, including all of the Trustees who are not interested persons under the 1940 Act (the "Independent Trustees"), approved the Agreements with respect to each Master Portfolio. In reaching a decision to renew the Advisory Agreements, the Board of Trustees, including all of the Independent Trustees, considered, among; (1) the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the Adviser including, but not limited to, a review of the complexity of the services provided and whether the services are provided in a satisfactory and efficient manner; (2) the performance of the Funds over the one-, three-, five-and ten-year periods, as applicable ended December 31, 2015, and as compared to the relevant Lipper peer group, as well as the performance of the Funds as compared to their respective benchmark indices; (3) the contractual and actual compensation paid under the Agreements as compared to the compensation for the funds in the relevant peer group; (4) the expense ratios of the Funds, after expense waivers, as compared to expense ratios for relevant peer groups, along with relevant alternative methods to calculate fee structures; (5) the experience and qualifications of the Adviser's personnel and the Adviser's portfolio management capabilities and investment methodologies; (6) the extent to which economies of scale are relevant given the current asset size and current asset growth potential; (7) the financial condition of the Adviser; (8) the cost of services provided by the Adviser and the Adviser's profitability from each Fund for the year ended December 31, 2015; (9) the "fall-out" benefits to the Adviser and its affiliates from the relationship with the Companies; (10) the Adviser's operations, compliance program and policies with respect to the Code of Ethics; (11) that each Fund and each Portfolio is designed for long-term investors; and (12) the policies and procedures that are in place to address, among other things, informational and cyber-related security.
The Lipper peer group information was provided by U.S. Bancorp Fund Services, LLC, the Trust's administrator. The Independent Trustees also discussed the continuing viability of the Master Portfolios.
The Board of Trustees, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, concluded that: they were satisfied with the quality of services provided by the Adviser in advising the Master Portfolios, the profits earned by the Adviser were reasonable in light of the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to

June 30, 2016 (Unaudited) |
each Master Portfolio; and that each Master Portfolio was not large enough to attain significant economies of scale. Based on the factors considered, the Board of Trustees, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, concluded that it was appropriate to renew the Agreements.

6. Portfolio Securities Loaned
As of June 30, 2016, the Master Portfolios had loaned securities that were collateralized by cash. The cash collateral is invested by the custodian in a money market pooled account approved by the Adviser. Although risk is mitigated by the collateral, a Master Portfolio could experience a delay in recovering its securities and possible loss of income or value if the borrower fails to return them. The Master Portfolio receives interest on the collateral received as well as a fee for the securities loaned. The Master Portfolios will continue to receive dividends and interest on all securities loaned. Gain or loss in the fair value of the securities loaned that may occur during the term of the loan will be accounted for by the Master Portfolios. Loans of securities are terminable at any time and the borrower, after notice, is required to return borrowed securities within the standard time period for settlement of securities transactions. As the securities loans are subject to termination by the Funds or the borrower at any time, the remaining maturities of the outstanding securities lending transactions are considered to be overnight and continuous. The value of the securities on loan and the value of the related collateral at June 30, 2016, were as follows:

8. Summary of Fair Value Exposure
Various inputs are used in determining the value of a Master Portfolio's investments. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:
Level 1 — Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that a Master Portfolio has the ability to access.
Level 2 — Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These inputs may include quoted prices for the identical instrument on an inactive market, prices for similar instruments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, yield curves, default rates and similar data.
Level 3 — Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, to the extent relevant observable inputs are not available, representing a Master Portfolio's own assumptions about the assumptions a market participant would use in valuing the asset or liability, and would be based on the best information available.
The availability of observable inputs can vary from security to security and is affected by a wide variety of factors, including, for example, the type of security, whether the security is new and not yet established in the marketplace, the liquidity of markets, and other characteristics particular to the security. To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more

judgment. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in Level 3.
The inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement falls in its entirety, is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.

10. Offsetting Assets and Liabilities
The Master Portfolios are subject to various Master Netting Arrangements, which govern the terms of certain transactions with select counterparties. The Master Netting Arrangements allow a Portfolio to close out and net its total exposure to a counterparty in the event of a default with respect to all the transactions governed under a single agreement with a counterparty. The Master Netting Arrangements also specify collateral posting arrangements at pre-arranged exposure levels. Under the Master Netting Arrangements, collateral is routinely transferred if the total net exposure to certain transactions (net of existing collateral already in place) governed under the relevant Master Netting Arrangement with a counterparty in a given account exceeds a specific threshold depending on the counterparty and the type of Master Netting Arrangement.
The following is a summary of the Assets and Liabilities subject to offsetting in the Master Portfolios as of June 30, 2016:
