Market
Commentary
Dear
Shareholder
Most
major
global
stock
and
bond
indexes
produced
positive
returns
during
the
first
half
of
your
fund’s
fiscal
year,
the
six-month
period
ended
August 31,
2023.
Despite
turmoil
in
the
banking
sector
and
a
protracted
debt
ceiling
standoff,
markets
in
the
U.S.
were
resilient
as
economic
growth
remained
positive
and
corporate
earnings
results
came
in
stronger
than
expected.
Technology
companies
benefited
from
investor
enthusiasm
for
artificial
intelligence
developments
and
helped
drive
the
momentum
in
the
equity
market.
Growth
stocks
outperformed
value
shares,
and
developed
market
stocks
generally
outpaced
their
emerging
market
counterparts.
Currency
movements
were
mixed
over
the
period,
although
a
weaker
dollar
versus
major
European
currencies
was
beneficial
for
U.S.
investors
in
European
securities.
Within
the
S&P
500
Index,
the
communication
services,
information
technology,
and
consumer
discretionary
sectors
were
all
lifted
by
the
rally
in
tech-related
companies
and
recorded
significant
gains.
The
financials
sector
partly
recovered
from
the
failure
of
three
large
regional
banks
during
the
period
but
still
finished
in
negative
territory.
In
terms
of
economic
news,
inflation
remained
a
primary
concern
for
both
investors
and
policymakers.
Price
increases
moderated
during
the
period
but
remained
well
above
the
Federal
Reserve’s
2%
target.
In
response,
the
Fed
continued
to
raise
its
short-term
lending
benchmark
rate,
lifting
it
to
a
target
range
of
5.25%
to
5.50%
by
period-end,
the
highest
level
since
March
2001.
In
the
fixed
income
market,
U.S.
Treasury
yields
increased
as
the
Fed
tightened
monetary
policy
and
investors
priced
in
the
possibility
that
the
central
bank
may
have
to
keep
rates
higher
for
longer
than
previously
anticipated.
In
addition,
Treasuries
were
pressured
by
Fitch
Ratings’
decision
to
downgrade
the
credit
rating
of
U.S.
government
debt
from
the
highest
level,
AAA,
to
AA+
along
with
expectations
for
higher
levels
of
borrowing
by
the
Treasury
Department.
The
yield
on
the
benchmark
10-year
note
climbed
to
4.36%
in
mid-August,
its
highest
intraday
level
since
late
2007,
before
falling
back
to
4.09%
by
month-end.
Despite
rising
yields,
returns
were
positive
across
most
fixed
income
sectors
as
investors
benefited
from
the
higher
coupons
that
have
become
available
over
the
past
year
as
well
as
increasing
hopes
that
the
economy
might
be
able
to
avoid
a
recession.
Tax-exempt
municipal
bonds
were
supported
by
limited
issuance
in
the
sector
as
well
as
generally
strong
balance
sheets
at
the
state
and
local
level.
Global
economies
and
markets
have
shown
surprising
resilience
in
2023,
but
considerable
uncertainty
remains
as
the
impact
of
the
Fed’s
rate
hikes
has
yet
to
be
fully
felt
in
the
economy.
We
believe
this
environment
makes
skilled
active
management
a
critical
tool
for
identifying
risks
and
opportunities,
and
our
investment
teams
will
continue
to
use
fundamental
research
to
identify
securities
that
can
add
value
to
your
portfolio
over
the
long
term.
You
may
notice
that
this
report
no
longer
contains
the
commentary
on
your
fund’s
performance
and
positioning
that
we
previously
included
in
the
semiannual
shareholder
letters.
The
Securities
and
Exchange
Commission
(SEC)
adopted
new
rules
in
January
that
will
require
fund
reports
to
transition
to
a
new
format
known
as
a
Tailored
Shareholder
Report.
This
change
will
require
a
much
more
concise
summary
of
performance
rather
than
the
level
of
detail
we
have
provided
historically
while
also
aiming
to
be
more
visually
engaging.
As
we
prepare
to
make
changes
to
the
annual
reports
to
meet
the
new
report
regulatory
requirements
by
mid-2024,
we
felt
the
time
was
right
to
discontinue
the
optional
six-month
semiannual
fund
letter
to
focus
on
the
changes
to
come.
While
semiannual
fund
letters
will
no
longer
be
produced,
you
may
continue
to
access
current
fund
information
as
well
as
insights
and
perspectives
from
our
investment
team
on
our
personal
investing
website.
Thank
you
for
your
continued
confidence
in
T.
Rowe
Price.

FUND
EXPENSE
EXAMPLE
As
a
mutual
fund
shareholder,
you
may
incur
two
types
of
costs:
(1)
transaction
costs,
such
as
redemption
fees
or
sales
loads,
and
(2)
ongoing
costs,
including
management
fees,
distribution
and
service
(12b-1)
fees,
and
other
fund
expenses.
The
following
example
is
intended
to
help
you
understand
your
ongoing
costs
(in
dollars)
of
investing
in
the
fund
and
to
compare
these
costs
with
the
ongoing
costs
of
investing
in
other
mutual
funds.
The
example
is
based
on
an
investment
of
$1,000
invested
at
the
beginning
of
the
most
recent
six-month
period
and
held
for
the
entire
period.
Please
note
that
the
Intermediate
Tax-Free
High
Yield
Fund,
Tax-Free
High
Yield
Fund,
Tax-Free
Income
Fund,
and
Tax-Free
Short-Intermediate
Fund have
three
share
classes:
The
original
share
class
(Investor
Class)
charges
no
distribution
and
service
(12b-1)
fee,
the
Advisor
Class
shares
are
offered
only
through
unaffiliated
brokers
and
other
financial
intermediaries
and
charge
a
0.25%
12b-1
fee,
and
the
I
Class
shares
are
available
to
institutionally
oriented
clients
and
impose
no
12b-1
or
administrative
fee
payment.
The
Tax-Exempt
Money
Fund
has
two
share
classes:
The
original
share
class
(Investor
Class)
charges
no
distribution
and
service
(12b-1)
fee,
and
the
I
Class
shares
are
also
available
to
institutionally
oriented
clients
and
impose
no
12b-1
or
administrative
fee
payment.
Each
share
class
is
presented
separately
in
the
table.
Actual
Expenses
The
first
line
of
the
following
table
(Actual)
provides
information
about
actual
account
values
and
actual
expenses.
You
may
use
the
information
on
this
line,
together
with
your
account
balance,
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
on
the
first
line
under
the
heading
“Expenses
Paid
During
Period”
to
estimate
the
expenses
you
paid
on
your
account
during
this
period.
Hypothetical
Example
for
Comparison
Purposes
The
information
on
the
second
line
of
the
table
(Hypothetical)
is
based
on
hypothetical
account
values
and
expenses
derived
from
the
fund’s
actual
expense
ratio
and
an
assumed
5%
per
year
rate
of
return
before
expenses
(not
the
fund’s
actual
return).
You
may
compare
the
ongoing
costs
of
investing
in
the
fund
with
other
funds
by
contrasting
this
5%
hypothetical
example
and
the
5%
hypothetical
examples
that
appear
in
the
shareholder
reports
of
the
other
funds.
The
hypothetical
account
values
and
expenses
may
not
be
used
to
estimate
the
actual
ending
account
balance
or
expenses
you
paid
for
the
period.
Note:
T.
Rowe
Price
charges
an
annual
account
service
fee
of
$20,
generally
for
accounts
with
less
than
$10,000.
The
fee
is
waived
for
any
investor
whose
T.
Rowe
Price
mutual
fund
accounts
total
$50,000
or
more;
accounts
electing
to
receive
electronic
delivery
of
account
statements,
transaction
confirmations,
prospectuses,
and
shareholder
reports;
or
accounts
of
an
investor
who
is
a
T.
Rowe
Price
Personal
Services
or
Enhanced
Personal
Services
client
(enrollment
in
these
programs
generally
requires
T.
Rowe
Price
assets
of
at
least
$250,000).
This
fee
is
not
included
in
the
accompanying
table.
If
you
are
subject
to
the
fee,
keep
it
in
mind
when
you
are
estimating
the
ongoing
expenses
of
investing
in
the
fund
and
when
comparing
the
expenses
of
this
fund
with
other
funds.
You
should
also
be
aware
that
the
expenses
shown
in
the
table
highlight
only
your
ongoing
costs
and
do
not
reflect
any
transaction
costs,
such
as
redemption
fees
or
sales
loads.
Therefore,
the
second
line
of
the
table
is
useful
in
comparing
ongoing
costs
only
and
will
not
help
you
determine
the
relative
total
costs
of
owning
different
funds.
To
the
extent
a
fund
charges
transaction
costs,
however,
the
total
cost
of
owning
that
fund
is
higher.

T.

Tax-Exempt
Money
Fund,
Inc.
(the
fund) is
registered
under
the
Investment
Company
Act
of
1940
(the
1940
Act)
as a
diversified, open-end
management
investment
company. The
fund
seeks
to
provide
preservation
of
capital,
liquidity,
and,
consistent
with
these
objectives,
the
highest
current
income
exempt
from
federal
income
taxes.
The
fund
intends
to
operate
as
a
retail
money
market
fund
and
has
the
ability
to impose
liquidity
fees
on
redemptions if
the
fund’s
Board
of
Directors
determine
that
doing
so
is
in
the
best
interests
of
the
shareholders.
The
fund
has
two classes
of
shares:
the
Tax-Exempt
Money
Fund
(Investor
Class)
and
the
Tax-Exempt
Money
Fund–I
Class
(I
Class).
I
Class
shares
require
a
$500,000
initial
investment
minimum,
although
the
minimum
generally
is
waived
or
reduced
for
financial
intermediaries,
eligible
retirement
plans,
and
certain
other
accounts. Each
class
has
exclusive
voting
rights
on
matters
related
solely
to
that
class;
separate
voting
rights
on
matters
that
relate
to
both classes;
and,
in
all
other
respects,
the
same
rights
and
obligations
as
the
other
class.
NOTE

-
SIGNIFICANT
ACCOUNTING
POLICIES
Basis
of
Preparation
The fund
is
an
investment
company
and
follows
accounting
and
reporting
guidance
in
the
Financial
Accounting
Standards
Board
(FASB)
Accounting
Standards
Codification
Topic
946
(ASC
946).
The
accompanying
financial
statements
were
prepared
in
accordance
with
accounting
principles
generally
accepted
in
the
United
States
of
America
(GAAP),
including,
but
not
limited
to,
ASC
946.
GAAP
requires
the
use
of
estimates
made
by
management.
Management
believes
that
estimates
and
valuations
are
appropriate;
however,
actual
results
may
differ
from
those
estimates,
and
the
valuations
reflected
in
the
accompanying
financial
statements
may
differ
from
the
value
ultimately
realized
upon
sale
or
maturity.
Investment
Transactions,
Investment
Income,
and
Distributions
Investment
transactions
are
accounted
for
on
the
trade
date
basis.
Income
and
expenses
are
recorded
on
the
accrual
basis.
Realized
gains
and
losses
are
reported
on
the
identified
cost
basis. Premiums
and
discounts
on
debt
securities
are
amortized
for
financial
reporting
purposes. Income
tax-related
interest
and
penalties,
if
incurred,
are
recorded
as
income
tax
expense. Distributions
to
shareholders
are
recorded
on
the
ex-dividend
date. Income
distributions,
if
any, are
declared
by
each
class daily
and
paid
monthly. A
capital
gain
distribution,
if
any, may
also
be
declared
and
paid
by
the
fund
annually.
Class
Accounting
Shareholder
servicing,
prospectus,
and
shareholder
report
expenses
incurred
by
each
class
are
charged
directly
to
the
class
to
which
they
relate.
Expenses
common
to
all
classes
and
investment
income
are
allocated
to
the
classes
based
upon
T.
ROWE
PRICE
Tax-Exempt
Money
Fund
the
relative
daily
net
assets
of
each
class’s
settled
shares;
realized
and
unrealized
gains
and
losses
are
allocated
based
upon
the
relative
daily
net
assets
of
each
class’s
outstanding
shares.
Capital
Transactions
Each
investor’s
interest
in
the
net
assets
of the
fund
is
represented
by
fund
shares. The
fund’s
net
asset
value
(NAV)
per
share
is
computed
at
the
close
of
the
New
York
Stock
Exchange
(NYSE),
normally
4
p.m.
ET,
each
day
the
NYSE
is
open
for
business.
However,
the
NAV
per
share
may
be
calculated
at
a
time
other
than
the
normal
close
of
the
NYSE
if
trading
on
the
NYSE
is
restricted,
if
the
NYSE
closes
earlier,
or
as
may
be
permitted
by
the
SEC.
Purchases
and
redemptions
of
fund
shares
are
transacted
at
the
next-computed
NAV
per
share,
after
receipt
of
the
transaction
order
by

VALUATION
The
fund’s
financial
instruments
are
valued
at
the
close
of
the
NYSE
and
are
reported
at
fair
value,
which
GAAP
defines
as
the
price
that
would
be
received
to
sell
an
asset
or
paid
to
transfer
a
liability
in
an
orderly
transaction
between
market
participants
at
the
measurement
date.
Assets
and
liabilities
other
than
financial
instruments,
including
short-term
receivables
and
payables,
are
carried
at
cost,
or
estimated
realizable
value,
if
less,
which
approximates
fair
value.
The
fund’s
Board
of
Directors
(the
Board)
has
designated
T.
Rowe
Price
Associates,
Inc.
as
the
fund’s
valuation
designee
(Valuation
T.
ROWE
PRICE
Tax-Exempt
Money
Fund
Designee).
Subject
to
oversight
by
the
Board,
the
Valuation
Designee
performs
the
following
functions
in
performing
fair
value
determinations:
assesses
and
manages
valuation risks;
establishes
and
applies
fair
value
methodologies;
tests
fair
value
methodologies;
and
evaluates
pricing
vendors
and
pricing
agents.
The
duties
and
responsibilities
of
the
Valuation
Designee
are
performed
by
its
Valuation
Committee.
The
Valuation
Designee
provides
periodic
reporting
to
the
Board
on
valuation
matters.
Various
valuation
techniques
and
inputs
are
used
to
determine
the
fair
value
of
financial
instruments.
GAAP
establishes
the
following
fair
value
hierarchy
that
categorizes
the
inputs
used
to
measure
fair
value:
Level
1 – quoted
prices
(unadjusted)
in
active
markets
for
identical
financial
instruments
that
the
fund
can
access
at
the
reporting
date
Level
2 – inputs
other
than
Level
1
quoted
prices
that
are
observable,
either
directly
or
indirectly
(including,
but
not
limited
to,
quoted
prices
for
similar
financial
instruments
in
active
markets,
quoted
prices
for
identical
or
similar
financial
instruments
in
inactive
markets,
interest
rates
and
yield
curves,
implied
volatilities,
and
credit
spreads)
Level
3 – unobservable
inputs
(including
the Valuation
Designee’s
assumptions
in
determining
fair
value)
Observable
inputs
are
developed
using
market
data,
such
as
publicly
available
information
about
actual
events
or
transactions,
and
reflect
the
assumptions
market
participants
would
use
to
price
the
financial
instrument.
Unobservable
inputs
are
those
for
which
market
data
are
not
available
and
are
developed
using
the
best
information
available
about
the
assumptions
that
market
participants
would
use
to
price
the
financial
instrument.
GAAP
requires
valuation
techniques
to
maximize
the
use
of
relevant
observable
inputs
and
minimize
the
use
of
unobservable
inputs.
Input
levels
are
not
necessarily
an
indication
of
the
risk
or
liquidity
associated
with
financial
instruments
at
that
level
but
rather
the
degree
of
judgment
used
in
determining
those
values.
In
accordance
with
Rule
2a-7
under
the
1940
Act,
the
fund
values
its
securities
at
amortized
cost,
which
approximates
fair
value.
Securities
for
which
amortized
cost
is
deemed
not
to
reflect
fair
value
are
stated
at
fair
value
as
determined
in
good
faith
by
the
Valuation
Designee,
in
accordance
with
fair
valuation
policies
and
procedures.
On
August
31,
2023,
all
of
the
fund’s
financial
instruments
were
classified
as
Level
2
in
the
fair
value
hierarchy.

and
distribute
to

all
of

tax
regulations
may
differ
in
amount
or
character
from
net
investment
income
and
realized
gains
for
financial
reporting
purposes.
Financial
reporting
records
are
adjusted
for
permanent

directors.
In
considering
and
approving
the
continuation
of
the
Advisory
Contract,
the
Board
considered
the
information
it
believed
was
relevant,
including,
but
not
limited
to,
the
information
discussed
below.
The
Board
considered
not
only
the
specific
information
presented
in
connection
with
the
Meeting
but
also
the
knowledge
gained
over
time
through
interaction
with
the
Adviser
about
various
topics.
The
Board
meets
regularly
and,
at
each
of
its
meetings,
covers
an
extensive
agenda
of
topics
and
materials
and
considers
factors
that
are
relevant
to
its
annual
consideration
of
the
renewal
of
the
T.
Rowe
Price
funds’
advisory
contracts,
including
performance
and
the
services
and
support
provided
to
the
funds
and
their
shareholders.
Services
Provided
by
the
Adviser
The
Board
considered
the
nature,
quality,
and
extent
of
the
services
provided
to
the
fund
by
the
Adviser.
These
services
included,
but
were
not
limited
to,
directing
the
fund’s
investments
in
accordance
with
its
investment
program
and
the
overall
management
of
the
fund’s
portfolio,
as
well
as
a
variety
of
related
activities
such
as
financial,
investment
operations,
and
administrative
services;
compliance;
maintaining
the
fund’s
records
and
registrations;
and
shareholder
communications.
The
Board
also
reviewed
the
background
and
experience
of
the
Adviser’s
senior
management
team
and
investment
personnel
involved
in
the
management
of
the
fund,
as
well
as
the
Adviser’s
compliance
record.
The
Board
concluded
that
the
information
it
considered
with
respect
to
the
nature,
quality,
and
extent
of
the
services
provided
by
the
Adviser,
as
well
as
the
other
factors
considered
at
the
Meeting,
supported
the
Board’s
approval
of
the
continuation
of
the
Advisory
Contract.
Investment
Performance
of
the
Fund
The
Board
took
into
account
discussions
with
the
Adviser
and
detailed
reports
that
it
regularly
receives
throughout
the
year
on
relative
and
absolute
performance
for
the
T.
Rowe
Price
funds.
In
connection
with
the
Meeting,
the
Board
reviewed
information
provided
by
the
Adviser
that
compared
the
fund’s
total
returns,
as
well
as
a
wide
variety
of
other
previously
agreed-upon
performance
measures
and
market
data,
against

and
peer

various
periods
through
December
31,
2022. Additionally,
the
Board
reviewed
the
fund’s
relative

information
as
of
September
30,
2022,
which
ranked
the
returns
of
the
fund’s
Investor
Class
for
various
periods
against
a
universe
of
funds
with
similar
investment
programs
selected
by
Broadridge,
an
independent
provider
of
mutual
fund
data.
In
the
course
of
its
deliberations,
the
Board
considered
performance
information
provided
throughout
the
year
and
in
connection
with
the
Advisory
Contract
review
at
the
Meeting,
as
well
as
information
provided
during
investment
review
meetings
conducted
with
portfolio
managers
and
senior
investment
personnel
during
the
course
of
the
year
regarding
the
fund’s
performance.
The
Board
also
considered
relevant
factors,
such
as
overall
market
conditions
and
trends
that
could
adversely
impact
the
fund’s
performance,
length
of
the
fund’s
performance
track
record,
and
how
closely
the
fund’s
strategies
align
with
its
benchmarks
and
peer
groups.
The
Board
concluded
that
the
information
it
considered
with
respect
to
the
fund’s
performance,
as
well
as
the
other
factors
considered
at
the
Meeting,
supported
the
Board’s
approval
of
the
continuation
of
the
Advisory
Contract.
Costs,
Benefits,
Profits,
and
Economies
of
Scale
The
Board
reviewed
detailed
information
regarding
the
revenues
received
by
the
Adviser
under
the
Advisory
Contract
and
other
direct
and
indirect
benefits
that
the
Adviser
(and
its
affiliates)
may
have
realized
from
its
relationship
with
the
fund.
In
considering
soft-
dollar
arrangements
pursuant
to
which
research
may
be
received
from
broker-dealers
that
execute
the
fund’s
portfolio
transactions,
the
Board
noted
that
the
Adviser
bears
the
cost
of
research
services
for
all
client
accounts
that
it
advises,
including
the
T.
Rowe
Price
funds.
The
Board
received
information
on
the
estimated
costs
incurred
and
profits
realized
by
the
Adviser
from
managing
the
T.
Rowe
Price
funds.
The
Board
also
reviewed
estimates
of
the
profits
realized
from
managing
the
fund
in
particular,
and
the
Board
concluded
that
the
Adviser’s
profits
were
reasonable
in
light
of
the
services
provided
to
the
fund.
The
Board
also
considered
whether
the
fund
benefits
under
the
fee
levels
set
forth
in
the
Advisory
Contract
or
otherwise
from
any
economies
of
scale
realized
by
the
Adviser.
Under
the
Advisory
Contract,
the
fund
pays
a
fee
to
the
Adviser
for
investment
management
services
based
on
the
fund’s
average
daily
net
assets
and
the
fund
pays
its
own
expenses
of
operations.
Assets
of
the
fund
are
included
in
the
calculation
of
the
group
fee
rate,
which
serves
as
a
component
of
the
management
fee
for
many
other
T.
Rowe
Price
funds
and
declines
at
certain
asset
levels
based
on
the
combined
average
net
assets
of
most
of
the
T.
Rowe
Price
funds
(including
the
fund).
Although
the
fund
does
not
have
a
group
fee
component
to
its
management
fee,
its
assets
are
included
in
the
calculation
because
certain
resources
utilized
to
operate
the
fund
are
shared
with
APPROVAL
OF
INVESTMENT
MANAGEMENT
AGREEMENT
(continued)
T.
ROWE
PRICE
Tax-Exempt
Money
Fund
other
T.
Rowe
Price
funds.
The
fund
is
also
subject
to
contractual
expense
limitations
that
require
the
Adviser
to
waive
its
fees
and/or
bear
any
expenses
that
would
otherwise
cause
the
expenses
of
a
share
class
of
the
fund
to
exceed
a
certain
percentage
based
on
the
class’s
net
assets.
The
expense
limitations
mitigate
the
potential
for
an
increase
in
operating
expenses
above
a
certain
level
that
could
impact
shareholders.
In
addition,
the
Board
noted
that
the
fund
potentially
shares
in
indirect
economies
of
scale
through
the
Adviser’s
ongoing
investments
in
its
business
in
support
of
the
T.
Rowe
Price
funds,
including
investments
in
trading
systems,
technology,
and
regulatory
support
enhancements,
and
the
ability
to
possibly
negotiate
lower
fee
arrangements
with
third-
party
service
providers.
The
Board
concluded
that
the
advisory
fee
structure
for
the
fund
provides
for
a
reasonable
sharing
of
benefits
from
any
economies
of
scale
with
the
fund’s
investors.
Fees
and
Expenses
The
Board
was
provided
with
information
regarding
industry
trends
in
management
fees
and
expenses.
Among
other
things,
the
Board
reviewed
data
for
peer
groups
that
were
compiled
by
Broadridge,
which
compared:
(i)
contractual
management
fees,
actual
management
fees,
nonmanagement
expenses,
and
total
expenses
of
the
Investor
Class
of
the
fund
with
a
group
of
competitor
funds
selected
by
Broadridge
(Expense
Group)
and
(ii)
actual
management
fees,
nonmanagement
expenses,
and
total
expenses
of
the
Investor
Class
of
the
fund
with
a
broader
set
of
funds
within
the
Lipper
investment
classification
(Expense
Universe).
The
Board
considered
the
fund’s
contractual
management
fee
rate,
actual
management
fee
rate
(which
reflects
the
management
fees
actually
received
from
the
fund
by
the
Adviser
after
any
applicable
waivers,
reductions,
or
reimbursements),
operating
expenses,
and
total
expenses
(which
reflect
the
net
total
expense
ratio
of
the
fund
after
any
waivers,
reductions,
or
reimbursements)
in
comparison
with
the
information
for
the
Broadridge
peer
groups.
Broadridge
generally
constructed
the
peer
groups
by
seeking
the
most
comparable
funds
based
on
similar
investment
classifications
and
objectives,
expense
structure,
asset
size,
and
operating
components
and
attributes
and
ranked
funds
into
quintiles,
with
the
first
quintile
representing
the
funds
with
the
lowest
relative
expenses
and
the
fifth
quintile
representing
the
funds
with
the
highest
relative
expenses.
The
information
provided
to
the
Board
indicated
that
the
fund’s
contractual
management
fee
ranked
in
the
first
quintile
(Expense
Group);
the
fund’s
actual
management
fee
rate
ranked
in
the
first
quintile
(Expense
Group
and
Expense
Universe);
and
the
fund’s
total
expenses
ranked
in
the
third
quintile
(Expense
Group
and
Expense
Universe).
The
Board
also
reviewed
the
fee
schedules
for
other
investment
portfolios
with
similar
mandates
that
are
advised
or
subadvised
by
the
Adviser
and
its
affiliates,
including
separately
managed
accounts
for
institutional
and
individual
investors;
subadvised
funds;
and
other
sponsored
investment
portfolios,
including
collective
investment
trusts
and
pooled
vehicles
organized
and
offered
to
investors
outside
the
United
States.

provided
the
Board
with
information
about
the
Adviser’s
responsibilities
APPROVAL
OF

(continued)
T.
ROWE
PRICE
Tax-Exempt
Money
Fund
and
services
provided
to
subadvisory
and
other
institutional
account
clients,
including
information
about
how
the
requirements
and
economics
of
the
institutional
business
are
fundamentally
different
from
those
of
the
proprietary
mutual
fund
business.
The
Board
considered
information
showing
that
the
Adviser’s
mutual
fund
business
is
generally
more
complex
from
a
business
and
compliance
perspective
than
its
institutional
account
business
and
considered
various
relevant
factors,
such
as
the
broader
scope
of
operations
and
oversight,
more
extensive
shareholder
communication
infrastructure,
greater
asset
flows,
heightened
business
risks,
and
differences
in
applicable
laws
and
regulations
associated
with
the
Adviser’s
proprietary
mutual
fund
business.
In
assessing
the
reasonableness
of
the
fund’s
management
fee
rate,
the
Board
considered
the
differences
in
the
nature
of
the
services
required
for
the
Adviser
to
manage
its
mutual
fund
business
versus
managing
a
discrete
pool
of
assets
as
a
subadviser
to
another
institution’s
mutual
fund
or
for
an
institutional
account
and
that
the
Adviser
generally
performs
significant
additional
services
and
assumes
greater
risk
in
managing
the
fund
and
other
T.
Rowe
Price
funds
than
it
does
for
institutional
account
clients,
including
subadvised
funds.
On
the
basis
of
the
information
provided
and
the
factors
considered,
the
Board
concluded
that
the
fees
paid
by
the
fund
under
the
Advisory
Contract
are
reasonable.
Approval
of
the
Advisory
Contract
As
noted,
the
Board
approved
the
continuation
of
the
Advisory
Contract.
No
single
factor
was
considered
in
isolation
or
to
be
determinative
to
the
decision.
Rather,
the
Board
concluded,
in
light
of
a
weighting
and
balancing
of
all
factors
considered,
that
it
was
in
the
best
interests
of
the
fund
and
its
shareholders
for
the
Board
to
approve
the
continuation
of
the
Advisory
Contract
(including
the
fees
to
be
charged
for
services
thereunder).
