ABOUT DUPREE MUTUAL FUNDS
In 1941, Dupree & Company, Inc. began business in Harlan, Kentucky as a small securities brokerage firm specializing in tax-exempt municipal bonds.
Over the years the firm, which in 1963 moved its offices to Lexington, Kentucky, grew to become a regional leader in public finance, helping to structure complex and innovative municipal bond financing for some of the largest public projects in the Commonwealth of Kentucky.
In 1979, Dupree & Company began what is now Dupree Mutual Funds with the Kentucky Tax-Free Income Series and became the Fund’s investment adviser. The Fund was one of the first single-state municipal bond funds in the country, and the first mutual fund to invest solely in Kentucky municipal bonds. Since then, several new offerings have been added to the Dupree Mutual Funds family:
Kentucky Tax-Free Short-to-Medium Series in 1987;
Intermediate Government Bond Series in 1992;
Tennessee Tax-Free Income Series in 1993;
Tennessee Tax-Free Short-to-Medium Series in 1994;
North Carolina Tax-Free Income Series in 1995;
North Carolina Tax-Free Short-to-Medium Series in 1995;
Alabama Tax-Free Income Series in 2000;
Mississippi Tax-Free Income Series in 2000; and
Taxable Municipal Bond Series in 2010.
Today, after more than 60 years in business, Dupree continues to be a pioneer in the industry. Our Kentucky, Tennessee, and Mississippi Series are currently the ONLY 100% “no-load” municipal bond funds available in those states. No-load means simply shares of the funds are offered directly to investors with no front or back-end sales charges, as opposed to load funds which are sold through brokerage firms or other institutions.
At Dupree Mutual Funds, our goal is a simple one: to offer investors a high-quality, low-cost way to invest in municipal and government bonds while providing superior service to our shareholders. We encourage you to let us know how we’re doing.
TABLE OF CONTENTS
Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance: | (Unaudited) |
Six Months Ended December 31, 2014
The investment objective for our tax-exempt municipal bond funds is to provide a high level of tax-free income derived from state-specific municipal securities without incurring undue risk to principal. Similarly, the investment objectives for our government bond fund and taxable municipal bond fund are to provide a high level of taxable income derived from securities of the U.S. Government and its agencies and taxable municipal bonds, respectively, without incurring undue risk to principal. As a general rule, we do not try to anticipate market direction; instead, we attempt to buy high quality investment grade bonds at the best possible prices and yields and hold them in down markets as well as up markets.
Factors which may influence the performance of a state-specific tax-exempt municipal bond fund or a taxable municipal bond fund include, but are not limited to, movements in interest rates, a downgrade or upgrade of credit ratings assigned to bonds issued by state or local governments, changes in the credit ratings assigned to bond insurers, downturns or upturns in the specific economies of a given state, the rate at which bonds are called, and the rate at which revenues are received by state and local governments which are used to pay debt service on issued bonds. Similarly, many factors may influence the performance of a government bond fund including, but not limited to, movements in interest rates, prevailing conditions in the U.S. Government securities markets, changes in an issuer’s financial strength, changes in the credit rating assigned to an obligation, and the rate at which bonds are called.
During the six month period ended December 31, 2014 (the “Reporting Period”), economic activity expanded at a moderate pace. Real gross domestic product (GDP), a measure of the output of goods and services produced by labor and property in the United States, increased at an annual rate of 5.0 percent in the third quarter and 2.6 percent (advance estimate) in the fourth quarter of 2014. The 5.0 percent growth rate during the third quarter was the fastest since 2003 and was a welcome development in light of the fact that the economy actually contracted at an annual rate of -2.1 percent during the first quarter of 2014. Economic growth in the fourth quarter was slightly below the trend growth rate which is around 3.25 percent. For all of 2014, the U.S. economy grew 2.4 percent from the year before.
The Federal Reserve Board (“Fed”) left the federal funds target rate range at 0 to 1/4 percent during the Reporting Period. In late October, the Fed completed the taper of its asset purchase program which consisted of open-market purchases of Treasuries and mortgage-backed securities. The Fed continued its existing policy of reinvesting principal payments from its holdings of agency debt and mortgage-backed securities in agency mortgage-backed securities and rolling over maturing Treasury securities at auction. At its December meeting, the Fed reaffirmed its view that the current 0 to 1/4 percent target range for the federal funds rate was appropriate. At the same time, the Fed also strengthened its forward guidance and stated that it felt based on its current assessment that it can be “patient” in beginning to normalize the stance of monetary policy.
Conditions in the labor market continued to improve during the Reporting Period. Total nonfarm payroll employment expanded at a faster pace in the fourth quarter. The seasonally adjusted national unemployment rate dropped to 5.6 percent in December. The unemployment rate finished the year at the lowest level since June 2008. Most of the job growth has occurred in the private sector with state and local government employment still below pre-recession levels. The labor participation rate dropped during the second half of the year and stood at 62.7 percent which is a 37 year low. The housing sector continued to show signs of improvement. Housing starts increased 4.4 percent in December to a 1.09 million annual unit rate. The increase in housing starts was driven primarily by single-family projects. This was the best year for single-family housing starts since 2007.
Key measures of inflation continued to trend lower during the second half of the year. The Consumer Price Index (CPI) increased at a 0.8 percent annual rate in December. The core CPI, which excludes food and energy prices, increased at a 1.6 percent annual rate in December. The Fed’s preferred inflation gauge, the core Personal Consumption Expenditures Index, increased by 0.7 percent on a year-over-year basis in December. Declining energy prices are expected to push inflation indices even lower. Inflation measures have continued to run well below the Fed’s longer-run objective of a 2 percent target rate. Longer-term inflation expectations also remained well anchored during the Reporting Period.
Treasury and tax-exempt bond yields declined during the Reporting Period with the biggest movement on the long end of the yield curve. Yields on benchmark 10-year and 30-year AAA rated municipal securities declined by 22 and 42 basis points, respectively. As bond yields declined, the prices of municipal bonds increased. Longer-dated bonds performed considerably better than shorter-dated bonds. The decline in yields was the result of a combination of factors including declining Treasury yields, favorable supply/demand dynamics, improving credit quality at the state and local level, and historically low inflation rates.
State revenues continued to show positive trends. Although a number of states faced revenue shortfalls in the first half of 2014, tax collections picked up in the second half of the year. According to data compiled by the Rockefeller Institute, state tax revenue
i
collections rose by 4.0 percent in nominal terms during the third quarter of 2014 compared to the same quarter of 2013. Mississippi reported an 18.8 percent increase in personal income tax collections during the third quarter, while North Carolina reported a 13.6 decline in third quarter personal income tax collections. The latter was due to the fact that North Carolina recently reduced its personal income tax rates.
While the fiscal health of states and localities has continued to slowly improve, unfunded pension and healthcare obligations still present challenges for many jurisdictions. Moreover, new accounting standards adopted by the Government Accounting Standards Board (GASB) become effective this year which will likely cause the reported funded ratios for many government pension plans to decline even further. Kentucky’s funded ratio has been one of the lowest in the country, but reforms are in progress to improve funding levels.
A discussion of the performance of each of our funds for the six month period ended December 31, 2014 follows:
During the Reporting Period, longer-dated bonds outperformed shorter-dated bonds. This caused all of our Tax-Free Income Series funds to either perform in-line with or outperform the index. On the other hand, because of their shorter durations, our Tax-Free Short-to-Medium Series funds all significantly underperformed the index.
The Kentucky Tax-Free Income Series achieved a total return of 2.63 percent during the Reporting Period compared to a total return of 2.88 percent for the Barclays Capital Municipal Bond Index. The Kentucky Tax-Free Short-to-Medium Series achieved a total return of 0.56 percent during the Reporting Period compared to a total return of 2.88 percent for the Barclays Capital Municipal Bond Index.
The Tennessee Tax-Free Income Series achieved a total return of 3.16 percent during the Reporting Period compared to a total return of 2.88 percent for the Barclays Capital Municipal Bond Index. The Tennessee Tax-Free Short-to-Medium Series achieved a total return of 0.74 percent during the Reporting Period compared to 2.88 percent for the Barclays Capital Municipal Bond Index.
The North Carolina Tax-Free Income Series achieved a total return of 3.25 percent during the Reporting Period compared to 2.88 percent for the Barclays Capital Municipal Bond Index. The North Carolina Tax-Free Short-to-Medium Series achieved a total return of 0.41 percent during the Reporting Period compared to 2.88 percent for the Barclays Capital Municipal Bond Index.
The Alabama Tax-Free Income Series achieved a total a total return of 3.73 percent during the Reporting Period compared to 2.88 percent for the Barclays Capital Municipal Bond Index.
The Mississippi Tax-Free Income Series achieved a total return of 3.86 percent during the Reporting Period compared to 2.88 percent for the Barclays Capital Municipal Bond Index.
The Intermediate Government Bond Series achieved a total return of 2.59 percent during the Reporting Period compared to 0.96 percent for the Barclays Capital U.S. Government Intermediate Bond Index. The duration and average maturity of the fund is slightly longer than the index which caused it to outperform the index.
The Taxable Municipal Bond Series achieved a total return of 5.45 percent during the Reporting Period compared to 4.65 percent for the Barclays Capital Taxable Municipal Bond Index. The duration and average maturity of the fund is slightly longer than the index which caused it to outperform the index.
It should be noted that the Barclays Capital indices do not take into account any operating expenses or transaction costs. An investment cannot be made directly in an index.

DUPREE MUTUAL FUNDS | UNAUDITED |
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2014
1. | | Organization and Significant Accounting Policies |
Dupree Mutual Funds is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as a no-load, open-end investment company. The Declaration of Trust of Dupree Mutual Funds (the “Trust”) permits the Trustees to create an unlimited number of series of investment portfolios (each a “Fund” and collectively the “Funds”) and with respect to each series to issue an unlimited number of full or fractional shares of a single class. The Trust currently offers ten series:
Alabama Tax-Free Income Series
Kentucky Tax-Free Income Series
Kentucky Tax-Free Short-to-Medium Series
Mississippi Tax-Free Income Series
North Carolina Tax-Free Income Series
North Carolina Tax-Free Short-to-Medium Series
Tennessee Tax-Free Income Series
Tennessee Tax-Free Short-to-Medium Series
Intermediate Government Bond Series
Taxable Municipal Bond Series
The investment strategy of the eight state tax-free funds is to maintain 100% of their investments in their respective states of Alabama, Kentucky, Mississippi, North Carolina, or Tennessee municipal securities.
The Intermediate Government Bond Series’ investment strategy is to invest only in obligations of the U.S. Treasury and Agencies of the U.S. Government. The Intermediate Government Bond Series will buy bonds and notes that will maintain an average maturity of no more than ten years.
The Taxable Municipal Bond Series’ investment strategy is to invest in taxable municipal bonds of investment grade quality.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Funds in the preparation of their financial statements. The policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
Securities held by the Intermediate Government Bond Series and the Taxable Municipal Bond Series are valued using market quotations as provided by an independent pricing service. Securities held by the eight state tax-free funds are valued as determined in good faith in accordance with consistently applied procedures established by and under the general supervision of the Board of Trustees. These procedures involve the use of a matrix pricing model which takes into consideration price quotations or appraisals for these securities, yield, stability, risk, quality, coupon rate, maturity, type of issue, trading characteristics, special circumstances of a security or trading market, and any other factors or market data considered relevant in determining the value. The procedures also include weekly verification of market quotations provided by two independent pricing services. A bond valuation that is not supported by a valuation source requires management to fair value the security in consultation with the Board’s Valuation committee. Shares of open-end mutual funds in which the Funds invest are valued at their respective net asset values as reported by the underlying funds.
The Funds have adopted the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”. ASC 820 establishes a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques giving the highest priority to readily available unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets (level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 measurements) when market prices are not readily available or reliable. The three levels of the hierarchy under ASC 820 are described as follows:
| | |
Level 1: | | Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities. |
Level 2: | | Prices determined using other significant observable inputs. Observable inputs are inputs that other market participants may use in pricing a security. These may include quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk and others. |

DUPREE MUTUAL FUNDS | UNAUDITED |
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2014
1. | | Organization and Significant Accounting Policies, continued: |
| | |
Level 3: | | Prices determined using significant unobservable inputs. In situations where quoted prices or observable inputs are unavailable or deemed less relevant (for example, where there is little or no market activity for an investment at the end of the period), unobservable inputs may be used. Unobservable inputs reflect the Fund’s own assumptions about the factors market participants would use in pricing an investment, and would be based on the best information available. |
The aggregate value by input level, as of December 31, 2014, for the Funds’ investments is included at the end of the Funds’ Schedules of Portfolio Investments. The Funds recognize transfers at the end of the reporting period. There were no transfers in and out of level 1, 2 or 3 during the six month period ending December 31, 2014.
Security transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on an identified cost basis.
Interest income, which includes the amortization of premiums and the accretion of discounts, is recorded on an accrual basis.
| D. | When-Issued and Extended Settlement Securities |
The Funds may purchase securities with delivery or payment to occur at a later date. At the time the Funds enter into a commitment to purchase a security, the transaction is recorded and the value of the security is reflected in the net asset value. The value of the security may vary with market fluctuations. No interest accrues to the Funds until the security is delivered and payment takes place. At the time the Funds enter into this type of transaction, they are required to segregate cash or other liquid assets equal to the value of the securities purchased.
It is each Fund’s policy to qualify as a regulated investment company by complying with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code (the “code”) applicable to regulated investment companies, including the distribution of all or substantially all taxable and tax-exempt income to their shareholders. The Funds have met the requirements of the code applicable to regulated investment companies for the year ended December 31, 2014. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required. Management of the Funds has concluded that there are no uncertain tax provisions that would require recognition in the financial statements. Generally, the tax authorities can examine all the tax returns for the last three years.
Substantially all of the net investment income of the Funds is declared as a dividend to shareholders of record as of the close of business each day. Distributions are payable in cash or in additional shares at the net asset value on the payable date.
Distributions are payable:
| | |
Monthly for: | | Kentucky Tax-Free Short-to-Medium Series North Carolina Tax-Free Short-to-Medium Series Tennessee Tax-Free Short-to-Medium Series Intermediate Government Bond Series Taxable Municipal Bond Series |
| |
Quarterly for: | | Alabama Tax-Free Income Series Kentucky Tax-Free Income Series Mississippi Tax-Free Income Series North Carolina Tax-Free Income Series Tennessee Tax-Free Income Series |

DUPREE MUTUAL FUNDS | UNAUDITED |
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2014
1. | | Organization and Significant Accounting Policies, continued: |
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures. Actual amounts could differ from those estimates.
Subsequent events occurring after the date of this report have been evaluated for potential impact to this report through the date the financial statements were issued. There were no subsequent events to report that would have a material impact on the Funds’ financial statements.
2. | | Investment Advisory Fee and Other Transactions with Affiliates |
Subject to the direction of the Trustees, Dupree & Company, Inc. (the Adviser) is responsible for the management of the Funds’ portfolios. Under the terms of the Investment Advisory Agreements, for the Alabama, Kentucky, Mississippi, North Carolina, Tennessee, and the Taxable Municipal Bond Series, the Funds have agreed to pay to the Adviser as compensation for all services rendered, facilities furnished and expenses paid or assumed by it under the Agreements, a fee at the annual rate of .50 of 1% of the first $100,000,000 average daily net assets of each Fund determined separately; .45 of 1% of the average daily net assets between $100,000,001 and $150,000,000 of each Fund determined separately; .40 of 1% of the average daily net assets between $150,000,001 and $500,000,000 of each Fund determined separately; .35 of 1% of the average daily net assets between $500,000,001 and 750,000,000; .30 of 1% of the average daily net assets between $750,000,001 and 1,000,000,000; and .25 of 1% of the average daily net assets in excess of $1,000,000,000. For the Intermediate Government Bond Series, the Fund has agreed to pay to the Adviser, as compensation for all services rendered, facilities furnished and expenses paid or assumed by it under the Agreement, a fee at the annual rate of .20 of 1% of average daily net assets.
The Adviser may voluntarily waive investment advisory fees payable to it under the Investment Advisory Agreement with each Fund, and assume and pay other operating expenses. The Adviser will not seek to recoup any waived fees or other operating expenses it has assumed.
For the six months ended December 31, 2014, fees voluntarily waived by the Adviser were as follows:
| | | | |
| | Fees waived by Adviser | |
Alabama Tax-Free Income Series | | $ | 9,752 | |
Mississippi Tax-Free Income Series | | | 9,752 | |
In addition, each Fund has entered into a Shareholder Service Agreement with Dupree & Company, Inc, the Funds’ transfer agent. The agreement provides for a fee computed on the average daily net asset value at the annual rate of .15 of 1% on the first $20,000,000 of average net assets and .12 of 1% of all amounts in excess of $20,000,000 of average net assets for each Fund.
3. | | Purchases and Sales of Securities |
During the period ended December 31, 2014, the cost of purchases and the proceeds from sales/calls and maturities of securities (excluding short-term securities and U.S. government obligations, except for the Intermediate Government Bond Series which are all U.S. government obligations) for each of the Funds were as follows:

political subdivisions, agencies and public authorities to obtain funds for various public purposes. Each of these state-specific Funds is more susceptible to economic and political factors adversely affecting issuers of their states’ respective municipal securities than a fund that is not concentrated in these issuers to the same extent.
On December 22, 2010, the Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010 (the “Act”) was enacted, which changed various technical rules governing the tax treatment of regulated investment companies. The changes are generally effective for taxable years beginning after the date of enactment. One of the more prominent changes addresses capital loss carryforwards. Under the Act, each Fund will be permitted to carry forward capital losses incurred in taxable years beginning after the date of enactment for an unlimited period. However, any losses incurred during those future taxable years will be required to be utilized prior to the losses incurred in pre-enactment taxable years, which carry an expiration date. As a result of this ordering rule, pre-enactment capital loss carryforwards may be more likely to expire unused. Additionally, post-enactment capital loss carryforwards will retain their character as either short-term or long-term capital losses rather than being considered all short-term as permitted under previous regulation.
At June 30, 2014, the Funds’ capital loss carry-forwards expire as follows:

7. | | Contingencies and Commitments |
The Funds indemnify the Trust’s officers and Trustees for certain liabilities that might arise from the performance of their duties to the Funds. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Funds enter into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which may provide for indemnification. The Funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve predicting future claims that may be made against the Funds, if any, which have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Funds do not expect the risk of loss to be material.
8. | | Line of Credit Agreement and Custodian Agreement |
Under the terms of an agreement with the Funds’ custodian, principal amounts up to 5% of a Fund’s net assets are available on an uncommitted line of credit. The principal amounts borrowed are due on demand. The agreement expires on August 31, 2015, but may be renewed annually. Interest is payable based on the published prime rate of the bank. Securities with a minimum value of three times the loan proceeds will be assigned as collateral until the balance of the note and unpaid interest is paid in full and terminated.
At December 31, 2014, the Funds had an unused line of credit amount of $25,000,000. During the six months ended December 31, 2014, the average interest rate on borrowings was 3.25% and the daily weighted average borrowings for each Fund were as follows:

Credits realized as a result of uninvested cash balances are used to reduce each Fund’s expenses. During the six months ended December 31, 2014, these credits reduced each of Funds’ expenses by the amount shown on the Statement of Operation as “Custodian expense reduction.”

Board of Trustees Approval of Existing Advisory Agreements
Dupree Mutual Fund’s Board of Trustees is responsible for overseeing the Trust’s corporate policies and adhering to fiduciary standards under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (“1940 Act”). The Trustees are responsible for the annual renewal of the Trust’s investment advisory agreements with each Fund. Under the Investment Advisory Agreements, Dupree & Company, Inc. assumes responsibility for providing investment advisory and other services.
At a separate meeting of the Board of Trustees held on August 27, 2014 to consider new investment advisory agreements for each Series of the Trust, the Trustees considered the matter and voted unanimously to approve new investment advisory agreements for each Series and to place the proposal before the shareholders of each Series.
In preparation for the August 27, 2014 meeting, the Trustees requested and reviewed materials provided by Dupree. These materials included the following: Dupree’s audited financial statements for the twelve month period ended December 31, 2013; unaudited financial statements for the three month period ended March 31, 2014; Dupree’s Privacy Policy; Dupree’s Code of Ethics Report; and each Series’ performance and portfolio characteristics since Dupree became the investment adviser. The Board also requested and reviewed reports prepared using data from Morningstar® and Lipper, independent sources of investment company data, relating to each Series’ performance and expenses, compared to the performance and expenses of its peer group. The Board also requested and reviewed reports from the Mutual Fund Directors Forum.
In considering whether to approve new investment advisory agreements for each of the tax-free municipal bond Series, the Intermediate Government Bond Series, and the Taxable Municipal Bond Series, the Trustees reviewed the following factors with respect to each Series: (1) the nature, extent and quality of services provided by Dupree & Co. to each Series; (2) the investment performance of each Series; (3) the costs of the services provided to each Series and the profits realized or to be realized by Dupree & Co. from its relationship with the Trust; (4) the extent to which economies of scale have been realized as each Series grows; (5) whether the level of fees reflects those economies of scale for the benefit of investors in the Series; (6) comparisons of services and fees with contracts entered into by Dupree & Co. with other clients; and (7) other benefits derived or anticipated to be derived by Dupree & Co. from its relationship as investment adviser to the Trust.
Nature, Extent and Quality of Services
Pursuant to each agreement, Dupree provides investment supervisory services, office space and facilities and corporate administration. Specifically, Dupree obtains and evaluates relevant information regarding the economy, industries, businesses, municipal issuers, securities markets and securities to formulate a continuing program for the management of each Series’ assets in a manner consistent with the series’ investment objectives and to implement this program by selecting the securities to be purchased or sold by the Series and placing orders for such purchases and sales. In addition, Dupree provides for the Series’ office needs, maintains each Series’ books and records, assumes and pays all sales and promotional expenses incurred in the distribution of each

Series’ shares, staffs the Series with persons competent to perform all of its executive and administrative functions, supervises and coordinates the activities of the Trust’s institutional and other agents (e.g. custodian, transfer agent, independent accountants, independent legal counsel), and permits its officers and employees to serve as officers of the Trust, all without additional cost to the Trust. Dupree provides accounting services for all portfolio holdings, prepares required reports to shareholders, and prepares necessary SEC filings on a timely basis. Dupree does not render investment advisory or transfer agent services to any other clients.
The Trustees considered that Dupree is an experienced investment adviser whose investment professionals have managed the several Series of the Trust since the inception of each Series. Dupree’s personnel provide active and extensive monitoring of the investment portfolios daily and report on the investment performance of the Series to the Trustees at their scheduled quarterly meetings. The Trustees considered that Dupree has carried out these responsibilities in a professional manner over the years.
The Trustees considered, among other things, the performance of each of the Series, as discussed below.
Performance
The Trustees considered the performance of each Series during historical and recent periods and compared to (i) standardized industry performance data, (ii) the performance of comparable mutual funds and (iii) the performance of recognized indices.
The Trustees considered the comparative performance and expense data for each Series prepared by Morningstar®, an independent source of investment company data, annualized for 1, 3, 5 and 10 years as compared with other single state funds or government bond funds. The Trustees also considered comparative performance and expense data for each Series prepared by Lipper®, an independent source of investment company data, annualized for the 3, 5 and 10 years as compared with other single state funds or government bond funds. Lipper® comparative performance and expense data was considered for a 3 year period for the Taxable Municipal Bond Series. The Trustees noted that, for the most part, the Series’ total return over the periods reviewed have exceeded or have been in line with the total return of the benchmark index for each Series. Additionally, the Trustees noted that the expense ratios for each Series compared favorably with peer group funds. For additional detail about the considerations for each Trust Series, see the “Series-by-Series Factors” section below.
Cost and Profitability
The Trustees reviewed the audited (twelve months ended December 31, 2013) and unaudited financial statements (three months ended March 31, 2014) of Dupree & Company, Inc and statements of Dupree & Company Inc.’s revenues and costs of and profits from furnishing services to each Series (twelve months ended December 31, 2013). The Investment Adviser’s revenues and costs of and profits from furnishing services to each Series are allocated to each Series according to each Series’ identifiable costs and according to the size of the Series in relation to the total size of the Trust. The Trustees considered the Investment advisory fees paid to Dupree, expressed in dollar terms and as a percentage of assets under management. The Trustees considered and reviewed information concerning the costs incurred and profits derived by Dupree for services rendered in its capacity as investment adviser to each Series since the inception of each Series.
Fees Charged by Other Advisers
The Trustees considered information regarding fees paid to other advisers for managing similar investment portfolios. The Trustees received comparative fee information for comparable peer group funds prepared by Morningstar®, Inc. and Lipper®. The Trustees considered Advisor Profitability as analyzed by the Mutual Fund Directors Forum. The Trustees considered that the proposed advisory fees to be paid to Dupree for its services to each Series are comparable to the advisory fees charged to other similar portfolios.
Economies of Scale
In addition to considering that Dupree’s fees are comparable to fees charged to other similar portfolios, the Trustees also considered that economies of scale are integrated into the expense formulation.
Dupree has identified certain “economies of scale” that inure to its benefit as the net assets of each Series of the Trust increase in size. In recognition of this, Dupree has agreed to an advisory fee structure that incorporates breakpoints as the net assets of each

municipal bond Series of the Trust increase in size. More specifically, as the net assets of a given Series of the Trust increase in size, the management fee earned by Dupree decreases as a percentage of net assets. The advisory fee structure starts out at .50 of 1% for the first $100 million under management and progressively declines to a low of .25 of 1% once the net assets of a Series exceed $1 billion. The Trustees considered that under the aforementioned expense formulation, certain economies of scale inure to the benefit of investors in the Trust. To date, only the Kentucky Tax-Free Income Series has reached a breakpoint resulting in a lower percentage fee.
Fee Comparison with Other Clients
The only client served by Dupree is the Trust, so there are no applicable fee comparisons.
Other Benefits
The Trustees considered that Dupree derives a financial benefit from its advisory relationship with the Trust. The sole benefit that accrues to Dupree is an increase in total fees received as each Series increases in net asset size. The benefit to the shareholders of each Series is that Dupree’s fees decrease on a percentage basis as total net assets under management increase. Dupree reported no other indirect benefits attributable to management of the Series, including, but not limited to, soft dollar arrangements.

Schedule of Shareholder Expenses
As a shareholder of the Funds, you incur transaction costs including investment advisory fees and other Fund expenses. The following examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Funds and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
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 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 the Six Months Ended December 31, 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 each Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses which is not the Funds’ 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 Funds 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.

Further, on February 6, 2015 the Registrant’s President and Treasurer assessed the internal control over financial reporting to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that: (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the investment company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the investment company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and trustees of the investment company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the investment company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
The Registrant’s President and Treasurer have deemed the disclosure controls and procedures and the internal control over financial reporting effective. There were no changes in the Registrant’s disclosure controls and procedures or internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the second fiscal quarter of the period covered by this report that materially affected or is reasonably likely to materially affect the Registrant’s financial statements.
