Government Obligations fund
Expense Example
As a shareholder of the Government Obligations Fund (the "fund"), you incur ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees; and other fund expenses. This 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 period and held for the entire period from October 1, 2004, to March 31, 2005.
Actual Expenses
For each class, 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 Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
For each class, the second line of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the fund's actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the fund's actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the fund 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 your ongoing costs only. Therefore, the second line of the table for each class is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds.
Expense Examples
| | Beginning Account Value (10/1/2004) | | Ending Account Value (3/31/2005) | | Expenses Paid During Period* (10/1/2004 to 3/31/2005) | |

Piper Jaffray Hypothetical (5% return before expenses)† | | $ | 1,000.00 | | | $ | 1,021.09 | | | $ | 3.88 | | |
*Expenses are equal to the fund's annualized expense ratio of 0.75%, 0.60%, 0.45%, 0.20% and 0.77% for Class A, Class D, Class Y, Class Z and Piper Jaffray Class, respectively, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by the number of days in the most recent half-year/365 days (to reflect the one-half year period).
†The contractual limitation on annual expenses for Piper Jaffray Class shares has been increased to 0.81%. If this limitation had been in place during the period, actual and hypothetical ending account balances would have been $1,007.10 and $1,020.89, respectively, and actual & hypothetical expenses paid during the period would have been $4.05 and $4.08, respectively.

Prime Obligations fund
Expense Example
As a shareholder of the Prime Obligations Fund (the "fund"), you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs (for example, any contingent deferred sales charges that may apply on Class B or Class C shares); and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees; and other fund expenses. This 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 period and held for the entire period from October 1, 2004, to March 31, 2005.

Therefore, the second line of the table for each class is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

Actual Expenses
For each class, 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 Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the fund 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.

1 > Organization
The Government Obligations Fund, Prime Obligations Fund, Tax Free Obligations Fund, Treasury Obligations Fund, Treasury Reserve Fund and U.S. Treasury Money Market Fund (each a "fund" and collectively, the "funds") are mutual funds offered by First American Funds, Inc. ("FAF"), which is a member of the First American Family of Funds. FAF is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as an open-end investment management company. FAF's articles of incorporation permit the board of directors to create additional funds in the future.
FAF offers Class A, Class B, Class C, Class D, Class I, Class Y, Class Z, and Piper Jaffray shares. Prior to December 1, 2003, Class A shares were named Class S shares and Piper Jaffray shares were named Class A shares. Class A shares are not subject to sales charges. Class B and Class C shares of Prime Obligations Fund are only available pursuant to an exchange for Class B and Class C shares, respectively, of another fund in the First American Family of Funds or certain other unaffiliated funds, or in establishing a systematic exchange program that will be used to purchase Class B and Class C shares, respectively, of those funds. Class B shares may be subject to a contingent deferred sales charge for six years and automatically convert to Class A shares after eight years. Class C shares may be subjec t to a contingent deferred sales charge for 12 months, and will not convert to Class A shares. Class D, Class I, Class Y, Class Z, and Piper Jaffray shares are offered only to qualifying institutional investors. Treasury Reserve Fund only offers Class A shares. Class B, Class C, and Class I shares are not offered by Government Obligations Fund, Tax Free Obligations Fund, Treasury Obligations Fund, Treasury Reserve Fund or U.S. Treasury Money Market Fund. Piper Jaffray shares are not offered by U.S. Treasury Money Market Fund.
The funds' prospectuses provide descriptions of each fund's investment objective, principal investment strategies, and principal risks. All classes of shares of a fund have identical voting, dividend, liquidation and other rights, and the same terms and conditions, except that certain fees, including distribution and shareholder servicing fees, may differ among classes. Each class has exclusive voting rights on any matters relating to that class' servicing or distribution arrangements.
2 > Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The significant accounting policies followed by the funds are as follows:
SECURITY VALUATION – Investment securities held are stated at amortized cost, which approximates market value. Under the amortized cost method, any discount or premium is amortized ratably to the expected maturity of the security and is included in interest income. In accordance with Rule 2a-7 of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1940, the market values of the securities held in the funds are determined weekly using prices supplied by the funds' pricing services. These values are then compared to the securities' amortized cost. Securities whose market price varies by more than 0.5% are identified and validated with the pricing agent. If the difference between the aggregate market price and aggregate amortized cost of all securities held by a fund exceeds 50% of the allo wable 0.5% threshold, the funds' administrators will notify the funds' board of directors. The board of directors will be kept apprised of the situation until the difference is less than the 50% of the allowable 0.5% threshold. No such notification was required during the six months ended March 31, 2005.
SECURITY TRANSACTIONS AND INVESTMENT INCOME – For financial statement purposes, the funds record security transactions on the trade date of the security purchase or sale. Interest income, including amortization of bond premium and discount, is recorded on an accrual basis.
DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS – Distributions from net investment income are declared daily and are payable on the first business day of the following month.
EXPENSES – Expenses that are directly related to one of the funds are charged directly to that fund. Other operating expenses are generally allocated to the funds on the basis of relative net assets of all funds within the First American Fund complex. Class specific expenses, such as 12b-1 fees, are borne by that class. Income, other expenses, and realized and unrealized gains and losses of a fund are allocated to each respective class in proportion to the relative net assets of each class.
FEDERAL TAXES – Each fund is treated as a separate taxable entity. Each fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company as provided in Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended, and to distribute all taxable income, if any, to its shareholders. Accordingly, no provision for federal income taxes is required.

Net investment income and net realized gains (losses) may differ for financial statement and tax purposes because of temporary or permanent book/tax differences. To the extent these differences are permanent, reclassifications are made to the appropriate equity accounts in the period that the differences arise.
The character of distributions made during the year from net investment income or net realized gains may differ from its ultimate characterization for federal income tax purposes. In addition, due to the timing of dividend distributions, the fiscal year in which the amounts are distributed may differ from the year that the income or realized gains (losses) were recorded by the fund. The distributions paid during the six months ended March 31, 2005 (estimated) and fiscal year ended September 30, 2004 (adjusted by dividends payable as of March 31, 2005 and September 30, 2004) were characterized as follows (000):

Treasury Reserve Fund | | | 608 | | | | - | | | | - | | | | 608 | | | | - | | | | 608 | | |
The differences between book-basis and tax-basis undistributed/accumulated income, gains and losses are primarily due to distributions declared but not paid by September 30, 2004.
As of September 30, 2004, Treasury Obligations Fund had a capital loss carryforward of $62,000 that will expire in 2008.
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS – Each fund may enter into repurchase agreements with member banks of the Federal Reserve or registered broker dealers whom the funds' investment advisor deems creditworthy under guidelines approved by the funds' board of directors, subject to the seller's agreement to repurchase such securities at a mutually agreed upon date and price. The repurchase price generally equals the price paid by the fund plus interest negotiated on the basis of current short-term rates.
Securities pledged as collateral for repurchase agreements are held by the custodian bank until the respective agreements mature. Each fund may also invest in triparty repurchase agreements. Securities held as collateral for triparty repurchase agreements are maintained in a segregated account by the broker's custodian bank until the maturity of the repurchase agreement. Provisions of the repurchase agreements ensure that the market value of the collateral, including accrued interest thereon, is sufficient in the event of default of the counterparty. If the counterparty defaults and the value of the collateral declines or if the counterparty enters an insolvency proceeding, realization of the collateral by the fund may be delayed or limited.

SECURITIES LENDING – In order to generate additional income, a fund may lend securities representing up to one-third of the value of its total assets (which includes collateral for securities on loan) to broker-dealers, banks or other institutional borrowers of securities. Each fund's policy is to maintain collateral in the form of cash, U.S. Government securities, or other high-grade debt obligations equal to at least 100% of the value of securities loaned. The collateral is then "marked to market" daily until the securities are returned. As with other extensions of credit, there may be risks of delay in recovery of the securities or even loss of rights in the collateral should the borrower of the security fail financially.
U.S. Bancorp Asset Management, Inc. ("USBAM") serves as the securities lending agent for the funds in transactions involving the lending of portfolio securities on behalf of the funds. USBAM acts as the securities lending agent pursuant to, and subject to compliance with conditions contained in, an exemptive order issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). USBAM receives fees equal to 35% of the funds' income from securities lending transactions. Fees paid to USBAM from Government Obligations Fund for the six months ended March 31, 2005 were $53,730.
INTERFUND LENDING PROGRAM – Pursuant to an exemptive order issued by the SEC, the funds, along with other registered investment companies in the First American Family of Funds, may participate in an interfund lending program. This program provides an alternative credit facility allowing the funds to borrow from, or lend money to, other participating funds. The funds did not have any interfund lending transactions during the six months ended March 31, 2005.
DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN – Under a Deferred Compensation Plan (the "Plan"), non-interested directors of the First American Fund family may participate and elect to defer receipt of their annual compensation. Deferred amounts are treated as though equivalent dollar amounts had been invested in shares of selected open-end First American Funds as designated by the board of directors. All amounts in the Plan are 100% vested and accounts under the Plan are obligations of the funds. Deferred amounts remain in the funds until distributed in accordance with the Plan.
USE OF ESTIMATES IN THE PREPARATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – The preparation of financial statements, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of net assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported results of operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
