Semi-annual report for the six months ended March 31, 2009

The Cash Management Trust of America® seeks to provide income on cash reserves, while preserving capital and maintaining liquidity, through investments in high-quality short-term money market instruments.

The U.S. Treasury Money Fund of AmericaSM seeks to provide income on cash reserves, while preserving capital and maintaining liquidity, through investments in U.S. Treasury securities.

The Tax-Exempt Money Fund of AmericaSM seeks to provide income free from federal taxes, while preserving capital and maintaining liquidity, by investing primarily in securities exempt from regular federal income tax.

These money market funds are three of the American Funds. American Funds is one of the nation’s largest mutual fund families. For nearly 80 years, Capital Research and Management Company,SM the American Funds adviser, has invested with a long-term focus based on thorough research and attention to risk.

Figures shown in this report are past results for Class A shares and are not predictive of results in future periods. Current and future results may be lower or higher than those shown. Investment returns will vary. Although the funds seek to preserve the value of your investment at $1.00 per share, it is possible to lose money by investing in the funds. Investing for short periods makes losses more likely.

Investments are not FDIC-insured, nor are they deposits of or guaranteed by a bank. The funds are participating in the Temporary Guarantee Program for Money Market Funds established by the United States Treasury Department. The program currently runs until September 18, 2009. For more information regarding this program and the funds’ participation, please see the funds’ prospectus and visit the Treasury’s website at ustreas.gov. For current information and month-end results, visit americanfunds.com.

The total annual fund operating expense ratios for Class A shares for the 12 months ended March 31, 2009, were 0.51% for The Cash Management Trust of America, 0.45% for The U.S. Treasury Money Fund of America and 0.48% for The Tax-Exempt Money Fund of America. These figures do not reflect the fee waivers/reimbursements described below.

Investment results assume all distributions are reinvested and reflect applicable fees and expenses. For The U.S. Treasury Money Fund of America and The Tax-Exempt Money Fund of America, the investment adviser waived a portion of its management fees from September 1, 2004, through December 31, 2008. For The Cash Management Trust of America, the investment adviser waived 10% of its management fees from October 1, 2005, through December 31, 2008. The investment adviser also has reimbursed certain expenses for The U.S. Treasury Money Fund of America and The Tax-Exempt Money Fund of America. These reimbursements may be adjusted or discontinued by the investment adviser at any time. Fund results shown reflect the waivers and/or reimbursements, without which they would have been lower. Please see the Financial Highlights tables on pages 20, 44 and 68 for details.

Results for Classes B, C, F and 529 of The Cash Management Trust of America can be found on page 19.

Investing outside the United States may be subject to additional risks, such as currency fluctuations and political instability. See the prospectus and the Risk Factors section of this report for more information on these and other risks associated with investing in the funds.

Income from The Tax-Exempt Money Fund of America may be subject to state or local income taxes and/or federal alternative minimum taxes. Certain other income may be taxable.

Fellow shareholders:

When we last reported to you six months ago, the economy and financial markets had entered one of the most challenging and turbulent periods in decades. Extreme weakness in the real estate and mortgage markets resulted in steep losses for a number of the largest financial institutions. In some cases this resulted in mergers with stronger institutions or the injection of government aid. As investors became increasingly reluctant to lend, the credit markets ceased to function normally.

Throughout the six months ended March 31, 2009, wary investors continued to seek relative safety in money markets and government securities. All three of our money market funds provided a constant net asset value of $1.00 per share. However, reflecting the very low, near-zero yields on high-quality money market securities, income was modest.

The funds’ results

The Cash Management Trust of America produced an income return of 0.34% (0.68% annualized), with dividends reinvested, for the first half of the fund’s fiscal year. The fund’s annualized seven-day yield as of March 31, 2009, was 0.21%.

The U.S. Treasury Money Fund of America generated an income return of 0.09% (0.18% annualized), with dividends reinvested, for the six months ended March 31, 2009. Rates on short-term Treasuries had dropped to virtually zero — in some instances to zero or below — at the period’s close. As a result, the fund was unable to pay any dividend for the seven days ended March 31, 2009.

The Tax-Exempt Money Fund of America provided a federally tax-exempt income return of 0.33% (0.66% annualized), with dividends reinvested, for the six months. This is equivalent to a taxable return of 0.51% (1.02% annualized) for investors in the 35% tax bracket. A portion of this return may also be exempt from some state and local taxes. The fund’s annualized seven-day yield at March 31, 2009, was 0.00%.

Economic downturn

In the closing months of calendar year 2008, the economy moved deeper into recession as companies increasingly cut their payrolls, consumer spending slowed and credit became severely constricted. The federal government took a number of aggressive steps to bolster the economy and loosen the credit markets.

Your funds’ annualized seven-day SEC yields as of March 31, 2009
Seven-day yield: Unlike a fund’s income return, which reflects income generated over the period, the seven-day SEC yield is calculated by annualizing dividends paid by a fund during the last seven days. This calculation more accurately reflects a fund’s current earnings.

Investment results assume all distributions are reinvested and reflect applicable fees and expenses. The investment adviser has reimbursed certain expenses for The U.S. Treasury Money Fund of America and The Tax-Exempt Money Fund of America. These reimbursements may be adjusted or discontinued by the investment adviser at any time. Fund results shown reflect the reimbursements, without which they would have been lower. Please see the Financial Highlights tables on pages 20, 44 and 68 for details.

1Represents the fund’s taxable equivalent yield calculated at the maximum effective 35.0% federal tax rate.

2Equivalent to Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) yields. Represents the seven-day month-end averages.

3As of 12/16/2008, the Federal Reserve lowered the federal funds rate to a range of 0%–0.25%.

4Because income paid by The U.S. Treasury Money Fund of America is exempt from state and local taxes in most states, the fund’s taxable equivalent yield would be higher than the rates shown in the chart.

[End Sidebar]

The Federal Reserve slashed the federal funds rate to a historic low of 0%–0.25% in mid-December. In addition, the U.S. Treasury Department and the Fed initiated numerous guarantee policies and lending facilities, including programs to support markets for commercial paper and asset-backed commercial paper. As a result of these programs, as well as an increase in the issuance of government securities, the markets began to function more normally.

The impact on our funds

Our goal in managing your funds has always been to protect the money you have invested while seeking to provide a reasonable return. Given the turbulence in the markets during the period, we made some shifts in the composition of The Cash Management Trust of America’s portfolio, including increasing the fund’s holdings of U.S. Treasury bills and federal agency discount notes.

Challenging times like these serve as a reminder of the relative stability that money market funds can help provide as part of a diversified portfolio that includes stock and bond mutual funds. Money market funds can also be used to earmark cash for future investment opportunities. The funds offer check-writing privileges, and access to your account is available 24 hours a day at americanfunds.com.

Important changes for your funds

Effective May 1, 2009, American Funds closed these three funds to new investors and introduced the new American Funds Money Market Fund.SM Shareholders in the existing funds were mailed important proxy ballots regarding these changes. We encourage you to review the proxy and vote.

We take this opportunity to welcome the new shareholders who joined us over the past six months. The number of accounts in the three funds rose more than 33% during that time.

We thank you for selecting an American Funds money market fund for your investment portfolio. We appreciate your confidence and look forward to helping you achieve your long-term financial goals.

1. Organization and significant accounting policies

Organization – The Cash Management Trust of America (the "fund") is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as an open-end, diversified management investment company. The fund seeks to provide income on cash reserves, while preserving capital and maintaining liquidity, through investments in high-quality short-term money market instruments.

The fund has 15 share classes consisting of five retail share classes, five 529 college savings plan share classes and five retirement plan share classes. The 529 college savings plan share classes (529-A, 529-B, 529-C, 529-E and 529-F-1) can be used to save for college education. The five retirement plan share classes (R-1, R-2, R-3, R-4 and R-5) are generally offered only through eligible employer-sponsored retirement plans. The fund’s share classes are described below:

Share class	Initial sales charge	Contingent deferred sales charge upon redemption	Conversion feature
Classes A and 529-A	None	None	None
Classes B and 529-B*	None	Declines from 5% to 0% for redemptions within six years of purchase	Classes B and 529-B convert to Classes A and 529-A, respectively, after eight years
Class C*	None	1% for redemptions within one year of purchase	Class C converts to Class F-1 after 10 years
Class 529-C*	None	1% for redemptions within one year of purchase	None
Class 529-E	None	None	None
Classes F-1, F-2 and 529-F-1	None	None	None
Classes R-1, R-2, R-3, R-4 and R-5	None	None	None

*Classes B, 529-B, C and 529-C are not available for purchase.

Holders of all share classes have equal pro rata rights to assets, dividends and liquidation proceeds.Each share class has identical voting rights, except for the exclusive right to vote on matters affecting only its class. Share classes have different fees and expenses ("class-specific fees and expenses"), primarily due to different arrangements for distribution, administrative and shareholder services. Differences in class-specific fees and expenses will result in differences in net investment income and, therefore, the payment of different per-share dividends by each class.

Significant accounting policies – The financial statements have been prepared to comply with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These principles require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts and disclosures. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies followed by the fund:

Net asset value – The fund values its shares in accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") rules, using the penny-rounding method, which permits the fund to maintain a constant net asset value of $1.00 per share.

Security valuation –Fixed-income securities, including short-term securities purchased with more than 60 days left to maturity, are valued at prices obtained from an independent pricing service when such prices are available. However, where the investment adviser deems it appropriate, such securities will be valued at the mean quoted bid and asked prices (or bid prices, if asked prices are not available) or at prices for securities of comparable maturity, quality and type. Short-term securities purchased within 60 days to maturity are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. The value of short-term securities originally purchased with maturities greater than 60 days is determined based on an amortized value to par when they reach 60 days or less remaining to maturity.

Securities and other assets for which representative market quotations are not readily available or are considered unreliable by the investment adviser are fair valued as determined in good faith under procedures adopted by authority of the fund's board of trustees. Various factors may be reviewed in order to make a good faith determination of a security’s fair value. These factors include, but are not limited to, the type and cost of the security; contractual or legal restrictions on resale of the security; relevant financial or business developments of the issuer; actively traded similar or related securities; conversion or exchange rights on the security; related corporate actions; significant events occurring after the close of trading in the security; and changes in overall market conditions.

Security transactions and related investment income – Security transactions are recorded by the fund as of the date the trades are executed with brokers.  Interest income is recognized on an accrual basis. Market discounts, premiums and original issue discounts on fixed-income securities are amortized daily over the expected life of the security.

Class allocations – Income, fees and expenses (other than class-specific fees and expenses) are allocated daily among the various share classes based on the relative value of their settled shares. Unrealized gains and losses are allocated daily among the various share classes based on their relative net assets. Class-specific fees and expenses, such as distribution, administrative and shareholder services, are charged directly to the respective share class.

Dividends to shareholders – Dividends paid to shareholders are declared daily after the determination of the fund’s net investment income and are paid to shareholders monthly.

2. Risk factors

Investing in the fund may involve certain risks including, but not limited to, those described below.

Normally, the fund invests substantially in high-quality money market instruments, such as commercial paper, commercial bank obligations, savings association obligations, U.S. or Canadian government securities, and short-term corporate bonds and notes. The value of the securities held by the fund may be affected by changing interest rates and by changes in credit ratings of the securities. For example, the values of these securities may decline when interest rates rise and increase when interest rates fall. These securities may have credit and liquidity enhancements. Changes in the credit quality of banks and financial institutions providing these enhancements could cause the fund to experience a loss and may affect its share price.

In addition, the fund may invest in securities issued by entities domiciled outside of the U.S. or in securities with credit and liquidity support features provided by entities domiciled outside of the U.S. These securities may be affected by unfavorable political, economic or governmental developments that could affect the repayment of principal or the payment of interest. Securities of U.S. issuers with substantial operations outside the United States may also be subject to similar risks.

3. Taxation and distributions                                                                                     

Federal income taxation – The fund complies with the requirements under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to mutual funds and intends to distribute substantially all of its net taxable income each year. The fund is not subject to income taxes to the extent such distributions are made. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required.

As of and during the period ended March 31, 2009, the fund did not have a liability for any unrecognized tax benefits. The fund recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the statement of operations. During the period, the fund did not incur any interest or penalties.

The fund is not subject to examination by U.S. federal tax authorities for tax years before 2004 and by state tax authorities for tax years before 2003.

Distributions – Distributions paid to shareholders are based on net investment income determined on a tax basis, which may differ from net investment income for financial reporting purposes. As of March 31, 2009, there were no material differences between book and tax reporting. The fiscal year in which amounts are distributed may differ from the year in which the net investment income is recorded by the fund for financial reporting purposes.

The components of distributable earnings on a tax basis are reported as of the fund’s most recent year-end. As of September 30, 2008, the fund had tax basis undistributed ordinary income of $646,000.

As of March 31, 2009, the tax basis unrealized appreciation (depreciation) and cost of investment securities were as follows:

Gross unrealized appreciation on investment securities	$	1,451

4. Fees and transactions with related parties

Capital Research and Management Company ("CRMC"), the fund’s investment adviser, is the parent company of American Funds Service Company® ("AFS"), the fund’s transfer agent, and American Funds Distributors,® Inc. ("AFD"), the principal underwriter of the fund’s shares.

Investment advisory services - The Investment Advisory and Service Agreement with CRMC providesfor monthly fees accrued daily. These fees are based on a declining series of annual rates beginning with 0.320% on the first $1 billion of daily net assets and decreasing to 0.270% on such assets in excess of $2 billion. CRMC waived a portion of its investment advisory services fee commencing on October 1, 2005, and terminating on December 31, 2008. During the six months ended March 31, 2009, total investment advisory services fees waived by CRMC were $1,707,000.

The Investment Advisory and Service Agreement also provides that CRMC will reimburse the fund’s Class A shares to the extent that annual operating expenses exceed 25% of gross income. Expenses related to interest, taxes, brokerage commissions and extraordinary items are not subject to these limitations. During the six months ended March 31, 2009, these reimbursements totaled $28,621,000.

Due to lower short-term interest rates, CRMC agreed to pay a portion of fees and expenses. For the six months ended March 31, 2009, the total fees paid by CRMC were as follows:

Share class	(dollars in thousands)
Class B	$	2,382
Class C		3,348
Class F-1		114
Class F-2		1
Class 529-A		452

Class R-1		249
Class R-2		4,278
Class R-3		2,086
Class R-4		562
Class R-5		159
Total	$	14,421

 Class-specific fees and expenses – Expenses that are specific to individual share classes are accrued directly to the respective share class. The principal class-specific fees and expenses are described below:

Distribution services – The fund has adopted plans of distribution for all share classes, except Classes F-2 and R-5. Under the plans, the board of trustees approves certain categories of expenses that are used to finance activities primarily intended to sell fund shares and service existing accounts. The plans provide for payments, based on an annualized percentage of average daily net assets, ranging from 0.15% to 1.00% as noted below. In some cases, the board of trustees has limited the amounts that may be paid to less than the maximum allowed by the plans.All share classes, except Classes F-2 and R-5, may use a portion (0.15% for Class A, B, 529-A and 529-B shares and 0.25% for all other share classes) of average daily net assets to pay service fees, or to compensate AFD for paying service fees, to firms that have entered into agreements with AFD to provide certain shareholder services. The remaining amounts available to be paid under each plan are paid to dealers to compensate them for their sales activities.

Share class	Currently approved limits	Plan limits
Class A	0.15%	0.15%
Class 529-A	0.15	0.50
Classes B and 529-B	0.90	0.90
Classes C, 529-C and R-1	1.00	1.00
Class R-2	0.75	1.00
Classes 529-E and R-3	0.50	0.75
Classes F-1, 529-F-1 and R-4	0.25	0.50

Transfer agent services –The fund hasa transfer agent agreement with AFS for Classes A and B. Under this agreement, these share classes compensate AFS for transfer agent services including shareholder recordkeeping, communications and transaction processing. AFS is also compensated for certain transfer agent services provided to all other share classes from the administrative services fees paid to CRMC described below.

Administrative services – The fund has an administrative services agreement with CRMC to provide transfer agent and other related shareholder services for all share classes other than Classes A and B. Each relevant share class pays CRMC annual fees up to 0.15% (0.10% for Class R-5) based on its respective average daily net assets. Each relevant share class also pays AFS additional amounts for certain transfer agent services. CRMC and AFS may use these fees to compensate third parties for performing these services. Each 529 share class is subject to an additional administrative services fee payable to the Commonwealth of Virginia for the maintenance of the 529 college savings plan.The quarterly fee is based on a declining series of annual rates beginning with 0.10% on the first $30 billion of the net assets invested in Class 529 shares of the American Funds and decreasing to 0.06% on such assets between $120 billion and $150 billion. The fee for any given calendar quarter is accrued and calculated on the basis of the average net assets of Class 529 shares of the American Funds for the last month of the prior calendar quarter.Although these amounts are included with administrative services fees on the accompanying financial statements, the Commonwealth of Virginia is not considered a related party.

Expenses under the agreements described above for the six months ended March 31, 2009, were as follows (dollars in thousands):

Share class	Distribution services	Transfer agent services	Administrative services
			CRMC administrative services	Transfer agent services	Commonwealth of Virginia administrative services

* Amount less than one thousand.

Trustees’ deferred compensation – Since the adoption of the deferred compensation plan in 1993, trustees who are unaffiliated with CRMCmay elect to defer the cash payment of part or all of their compensation. These deferred amounts, which remain as liabilities of the fund, are treated as if invested in shares of the fund. These amounts represent general, unsecured liabilities of the fund and vary according to the total return of the fund. Trustees’ compensation on the accompanying financial statements includes the current fees (either paid in cash or deferred) and the net increase or decrease in the value of the deferred amounts.

5. Disclosure of fair value measurements

The fund adopted the Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157 (“FAS 157”), Fair Value Measurements, on October 1, 2008. FAS 157 requires the fund to classify its assets and liabilities into three levels based on the method used to value the assets or liabilities. Level 1 values are based on quoted prices in active markets for identical securities. Level 2 values are based on significant observable market inputs, such as quoted prices for similar securities and quoted prices in inactive markets. Level 3 values are based on significant unobservable inputs that reflect the fund’s determination of assumptions that market participants might reasonably use in valuing the securities. The valuation levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with the underlying investment. For example, U.S. government securities are generally high-quality and liquid; however, they are reflected as Level 2 because the inputs used to determine fair value may not always be quoted prices in an active market.At March 31, 2009, all of the fund’s investment securities were classified as Level 2.

7. Temporary Guarantee Program for Money Market Funds

The board of trustees approved participation in the U.S. Treasury Department Guarantee Program for Money Market Funds (the “Program”). Subject to provisions contained in a guarantee agreement signed by the fund, the Program guarantees that in the event the fund is liquidated, each shareholder of record on September 19, 2008 will receive $1.00 net asset value for the lesser of the shares held on September 19, 2008, and the date the fund’s net asset value falls below $0.995. Shares purchased subsequent to September 19, 2008, are not covered under the Program to the extent that the number of shares held in a particular account exceeds the number of shares held in that account on September 19, 2008. During the six months ended March 31, 2009, the fund paid total fees of $5,098,000, equivalent to 0.025% of the fund’s net assets as of September 19, 2008, to participate in the program through April 30, 2009. During the six months ended March 31, 2009, the expense related to these fees on the accompanying financial statements totaled $4,408,000. Subsequent to March 31, 2009, the U.S. Treasury Department elected to extend the period of guarantee through September 18, 2009. The fund paid total fees of $3,059,000, equivalent to 0.015% of the fund’s net assets as of September 19, 2008, to participate in this extension.

4Results shown do not reflect the $10 account setup fee and an annual $10 account maintenance fee.

Investment results assume all distributions are reinvested and reflect applicable fees and expenses. The fund’s investment adviser waived a portion of its management fees from October 1, 2005, through December 31, 2008, and also has reimbursed certain expenses. These reimbursements may be adjusted or discontinued by the investment adviser at any time. Fund results shown reflect the waiver and reimbursements, without which they would have been lower. Please see the Financial Highlights table on pages 20 to 25 for details.

Expense example

unaudited

As a shareholder of the fund, you incur certain ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution and service (12b-1) fees, and other expenses. Certain share classes also incur transaction costs such as contingent deferred sales charges (loads) on redemptions.  This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the fund so you can 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 (October 1, 2008, through March 31, 2009).

Actual expenses:

The first line of each share class in the table on page 28 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:

The second line of each share class in the table on page 28 provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the actual expense ratio for the share class and an assumed rate of return of 5.00% per year before expenses, which is not the actual return of the share class. 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 5.00% hypothetical example with the 5.00% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

Notes:

There are some account fees that are charged to certain types of accounts, such as individual retirement accounts and 529 college savings plan accounts (generally, a $10 fee is charged to set up the account and an additional $10 fee is charged to the account annually), that would increase the amount of expenses paid on your account. In addition, retirement plan participants may be subject to certain fees charged by the plan sponsor, and Class F-1, F-2, and 529-F-1 shareholders may be subject to fees charged by financial intermediaries, typically ranging from 0.75% to 1.50% of assets annually depending on services offered. You can estimate the impact of these fees by adding the amount of the fees to the total estimated expenses you paid on your account during the period as calculated above. In addition, your ending account value would be lower by the amount of these fees.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges (loads). Therefore, the second line of each share class in the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

Approval of Investment Advisory and Service Agreement

The fund’s board has approved the fund’s Investment Advisory and Service Agreement (the “agreement”) with Capital Research and Management Company (“CRMC”) for an additional one-year term through May 31, 2010. The board approved the agreement following the recommendation of the fund’s Contracts Committee (the “committee”), which is composed of all of the fund’s independent board members. The board and the committee determined that the fund’s advisory fee structure was fair and reasonable in relation to the services provided and that approving the agreement was in the best interests of the fund and its shareholders.

In reaching this decision, the board and the committee took into account information furnished to them throughout the year, as well as information prepared specifically in connection with their review of the agreement, and were advised by their independent counsel. They considered the factors discussed below, among others, but did not identify any single issue or particular piece of information that, in isolation, was the controlling factor.

1. Nature, extent and quality of services

The board and the committee considered the depth and quality of CRMC’s investment management process, including its global research capabilities; the experience, capability and integrity of its senior management and other personnel; the low turnover rates of its key personnel; the overall financial strength and stability of its organization; and the ongoing evolution of CRMC’s organizational structure designed to maintain and strengthen these qualities. The board and committee considered, among other things, the impact of current market conditions on the fund and CRMC. The board and the committee also considered the nature, extent and quality of administrative, compliance and shareholder services provided by CRMC to the fund under the agreement and other agreements as well as the benefits to fund shareholders from investing in a fund that is part of a large family of funds. The board and the committee concluded that the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by CRMC have benefited and should continue to benefit the fund and its shareholders.

2. Investment results

The board and the committee considered the investment results of the fund in light of its objectives of providing shareholders with income on their cash reserves while preserving capital and maintaining liquidity. They compared the fund’s total returns with those of other relevant funds (including the other funds that are the basis of the Lipper index for the category in which the fund is included) and market data such as relevant market indices, in each case as available at the time of the related meetings. In addition to the information reviewed by the board and committee, this report, including the letter to shareholders and related disclosures, contains certain information about the fund’s investment results. The board and the committee concluded that the fund’s results have been satisfactory and that CRMC’s record in managing the fund indicated that its continued management should benefit the fund and its shareholders.

3. Advisory fees and total expenses

The board and the committee compared the advisory fees and total expense levels of the fund to those of other relevant funds. They observed that the fund’s advisory fees and expenses remain significantly below those of most other relevant funds. The board and the committee also noted the breakpoint discounts in the fund’s advisory fee structure that reduce the level of fees charged by CRMC to the fund as fund assets increase. In addition, they reviewed information regarding the advisory fees paid by institutional clients of an affiliate of CRMC with investment mandates similar to those of the fund. They noted that, although the fees paid by those clients generally were lower than those paid by the fund, the differences appropriately reflected the significant investment, operational and regulatory differences between advising mutual funds and institutional clients. The board and the committee concluded that the fund’s cost structure was fair and reasonable in relation to the services provided, and that the shareholders receive reasonable value in return for the advisory fees and other amounts paid to CRMC by the fund.

4. Ancillary benefits

The board and the committee considered a variety of other benefits received by CRMC and its affiliates as a result of CRMC’s relationship with the fund and the other American Funds, including fees for administrative services provided to certain share classes; fees paid to CRMC’s affiliated transfer agent; sales charges and distribution fees received and retained by the fund’s principal underwriter, an affiliate of CRMC; and possible ancillary benefits to CRMC’s institutional management affiliates. The board and the committee reviewed CRMC’s portfolio trading practices, noting that while CRMC receives the benefit of research provided by broker-dealers executing portfolio transactions on behalf of the fund, it does not obtain third-party research or other services in return for allocating brokerage to such broker-dealers. The board and the committee took these ancillary benefits into account in evaluating the reasonableness of the advisory fees and other amounts paid to CRMC by the fund.

5. Adviser financial information

The board and the committee reviewed information regarding CRMC’s costs of providing services to the American Funds, including personnel, systems and resources of investment, compliance, trading, accounting and other administrative operations. They considered CRMC’s costs and willingness to invest in technology, infrastructure and staff to maintain and expand services and capabilities, respond to industry and regulatory developments and attract and retain qualified personnel. They noted information previously received regarding the compensation structure for CRMC’s investment professionals. The board and the committee also compared CRMC’s profitability to the reported results of several large, publicly held investment management companies. The board and the committee noted the competitiveness and cyclicality of both the mutual fund industry and the capital markets, and the importance in that environment of CRMC’s long-term profitability for maintaining its independence, company culture and management continuity. The board further considered the breakpoint discounts in the fund’s advisory fee structure and the impact of the termination of CRMC’s 10% advisory fee waiver effective December 31, 2008. The board and the committee concluded that the fund’s advisory fee structure reflected a reasonable sharing of benefits between CRMC and the fund’s shareholders.

1. Organization and significant accounting policies

Organization – The U.S. Treasury Money Fund of America (the "fund") is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as an open-end, diversified management investment company. The fund seeks to provide income on cash reserves, while preserving capital and maintaining liquidity, through investments in U.S. Treasury securities.

The fund has six share classes consisting of one retail share class (Class A) and five retirement plan share classes (R-1, R-2, R-3, R-4 and R-5). The five retirement plan share classes are generally offered only through eligible employer-sponsored retirement plans. All share classes are sold without any sales charges and do not carry any conversion rights.

Holders of all share classes have equal pro rata rights to assets, dividends and liquidation proceeds.Each share class has identical voting rights, except for the exclusive right to vote on matters affecting only its class. Share classes have different fees and expenses ("class-specific fees and expenses"), primarily due to different arrangements for distribution, administrative and shareholder services. Differences in class-specific fees and expenses will result in differences in net investment income and, therefore, the payment of different per-share dividends by each class.

Significant accounting policies – The financial statements have been prepared to comply with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These principles require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts and disclosures. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies followed by the fund:

Net asset value – The fund values its shares in accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") rules, using the penny-rounding method, which permits the fund to maintain a constant net asset value of $1.00 per share.

Security valuation – Fixed-income securities, including short-term securities purchased with more than 60 days left to maturity, are valued at prices obtained from an independent pricing service when such prices are available. However, where the investment adviser deems it appropriate, such securities will be valued at the mean quoted bid and asked prices (or bid prices, if asked prices are not available) or at prices for securities of comparable maturity, quality and type.Short-term securities purchased within 60 days to maturity are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. The value of short-term securities originally purchased with maturities greater than 60 days is determined based on an amortized value to par when they reach 60 days or less remaining to maturity.

Securities and other assets for which representative market quotations are not readily available or are considered unreliable by the investment adviser are fair valued as determined in good faith under procedures adopted by authority of the fund's board of trustees.

Security transactions and related investment income – Security transactions are recorded by the fund as of the date the trades are executed with brokers. Interest income is recognized on an accrual basis. Market discounts, premiums and original issue discounts on fixed-income securities are amortized daily over the expected life of the security.

Class allocations – Income, fees and expenses (other than class-specific fees and expenses) are allocated daily among the various share classes based on the relative value of their settled shares. Unrealized gains and losses are allocated daily among the various share classes based on their relative net assets. Class-specific fees and expenses, such as distribution, administrative and shareholder services, are charged directly to the respective share class.

Dividends to shareholders – Dividends paid to shareholders are declared daily after the determination of the fund’s net investment income and are paid to shareholders monthly.

2. Risk factors

Investing in the fund may involve certain risks including, but not limited to, those described below.

Normally, the fund’s portfolio consists primarily of U.S. Treasury securities, which are guaranteed by the United States government. These securities are generally affected by changes in the level of interest rates. For example, the value of the U.S. Treasury securities generally will decline when interest rates rise and increase when interest rates fall. A security backed by the U.S. Treasury or the full faith and credit of the United States government is guaranteed only as to the timely payment of interest and principal when held to maturity. Accordingly, the current market prices for such securities are not guaranteed and will fluctuate.

3. Taxation and distributions                                                                                     

Federal income taxation – The fund complies with the requirements under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to mutual funds and intends to distribute substantially all of its net taxable income each year. The fund is not subject to income taxes to the extent such distributions are made. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required.

As of and during the period ended March 31, 2009, the fund did not have a liability for any unrecognized tax benefits. The fund recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the statement of operations. During the period, the fund did not incur any interest or penalties.

The fund is not subject to examination by U.S. federal tax authorities for tax years before 2004 and by state tax authorities for tax years before 2003.

Distributions – Distributions paid to shareholders are based on net investment income determined on a tax basis, which may differ from net investment income for financial reporting purposes. As of March 31, 2009, there were no material differences between book and tax reporting. The fiscal year in which amounts are distributed may differ from the year in which the net investment income is recorded by the fund for financial reporting purposes.

The components of distributable earnings on a tax basis are reported as of the fund’s most recent year-end. As of September 30, 2008, the fund had tax basis undistributed ordinary income of $268,000.

As of March 31, 2009, the tax basis unrealized appreciation (depreciation) and cost of investment securities were as follows:

(dollars in thousands)
Gross unrealized appreciation on investment securities	$	853
Gross unrealized depreciation on investment securities		(55	)
Net unrealized appreciation on investment securities		798
Cost of investment securities		5,859,407

Distributions paid or accrued to shareholders from ordinary income were as follows (dollars in thousands):

Share class	Six months ended March 31, 2009		Year ended September 30, 2008
Class A	$	4,617	$	20,339

Class R-3		17		665
Class R-4		32		732
Class R-5		51		416
Total	$	4,738	$	22,710

4. Fees and transactions with related parties

Capital Research and Management Company ("CRMC"), the fund’s investment adviser, is the parent company of American Funds Service Company® ("AFS"), the fund’s transfer agent, and American Funds Distributors,® Inc. ("AFD"), the principal underwriter of the fund’s shares.

Investment advisory services - The Investment Advisory and Service Agreement with CRMC providesfor monthly fees accrued daily. These fees are based on an annual rate of 0.300% on the first $800 million of daily net assets and 0.285% on such assets in excess of $800 million. CRMC waived a portion of its investment advisory services fee commencing on September 1, 2004, and terminating on December 31, 2008. During the six months ended March 31, 2009, total investment advisory services fees waived by CRMC were $410,000.

Due to lower short-term interest rates, CRMC agreed to pay a portion of fees and expenses. For the six months ended March 31, 2009, the total fees paid by CRMC were $2,050,000, $44,000, $469,000, $260,000, $206,000 and $26,000 for Classes A, R-1, R-2, R-3, R-4 and R-5, respectively.

Class-specific fees and expenses – Expenses that are specific to individual share classes are accrued directly to the respective share class. The principal class-specific fees and expenses are described below:

Distribution services – The fund has adopted plans of distribution for all share classes, except Class R-5. Under the plans, the board of trustees approves certain categories of expenses that are used to finance activities primarily intended to sell fund shares and service existing accounts. The plans provide for payments, based on an annualized percentage of average daily net assets, ranging from 0.15% to 1.00% as noted below. In some cases, the board of trustees has limited the amounts that may be paid to less than the maximum allowed by the plans.All share classes may use a portion (0.15% for Class A and 0.25% for all other share classes) of average daily net assets to pay service fees, or to compensate AFD for paying service fees, to firms that have entered into agreements with AFD to provide certain shareholder services. The remaining amounts available to be paid under each plan are paid to dealers to compensate them for their sales activities.

Share class	Currently approved limits	Plan limits
Class A	0.15%	0.15%
Class R-1	1.00	1.00
Class R-2	0.75	1.00
Class R-3	0.50	0.75
Class R-4	0.25	0.50

Transfer agent services –The fund has a transfer agent agreement with AFS for Class A. Under this agreement, this share class compensates AFS for transfer agent services including shareholder recordkeeping, communications and transaction processing. AFS is also compensated for certain transfer agent services provided to all other share classes from the administrative services fees paid to CRMC described below.

Administrative services – The fund has an administrative services agreement with CRMC to provide transfer agent and other related shareholder services for all share classes other than Class A. Each relevant share class pays CRMC annual fees up to 0.15% (0.10% for Class R-5) based on its respective average daily net assets. Each relevant share class also pays AFS additional amounts for certain transfer agent services. CRMC and AFS may use these fees to compensate third parties for performing these services.

Expenses under the agreements described above for the six months ended March 31, 2009, were as follows (dollars in thousands):

Share class	Distribution services	Transfer agent services	Administrative services
			CRMC administrative services	Transfer agent services
Class A	$2,047	$716	Not applicable	Not applicable
Class R-1	45	Included in administrative services	$4	$1
Class R-2	359		73	109
Class R-3	222		67	32
Class R-4	174		96	13
Class R-5	Not applicable		33	1
Total	$2,847	$716	$273	$156

Trustees’ deferred compensation – Since the adoption of the deferred compensation plan in 1993, trustees who are unaffiliated with CRMCmay elect to defer the cash payment of part or all of their compensation. These deferred amounts, which remain as liabilities of the fund, are treated as if invested in shares of the fund. These amounts represent general, unsecured liabilities of the fund and vary according to the total return of the fund. Trustees’ compensation on the accompanying financial statements includes the current fees (either paid in cash or deferred) and the net increase or decrease in the value of the deferred amounts.

5. Disclosure of fair value measurements

The fund adopted the Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157 (“FAS 157”), Fair Value Measurements, on October 1, 2008. FAS 157 requires the fund to classify its assets and liabilities into three levels based on the method used to value the assets or liabilities.Level 1 values are based on quoted prices in active markets for identical securities. Level 2 values are based on significant observable market inputs, such as quoted prices for similar securities and quoted prices in inactive markets. Level 3 values are based on significant unobservable inputs that reflect the fund’s determination of assumptions that market participants might reasonably use in valuing the securities. The valuation levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with the underlying investment. For example, U.S. government securities are generally high-quality and liquid; however, they are reflected as Level 2 because the inputs used to determine fair value may not always be quoted prices in an active market.At March 31, 2009, all of the fund’s investment securities were classified as Level 2.

6. Capital share transactions

Capital share transactions in the fund were as follows (dollars and shares in thousands):

7. Temporary Guarantee Program for Money Market Funds

The board of trustees approved participation in the U.S. Treasury Department Guarantee Program for Money Market Funds (the “Program”). Subject to provisions contained in a guarantee agreement signed by the fund, the Program guarantees that in the event the fund is liquidated, each shareholder of record on September 19, 2008, will receive $1.00 net asset value for the lesser of the shares held on September 19, 2008, and the date the fund’s net asset value falls below $0.995. Shares purchased subsequent to September 19, 2008, are not covered under the Program to the extent that the number of shares held in a particular account exceeds the number of shares held in that account on September 19, 2008. During the six months ended March 31, 2009, the fund paid total fees of $707,000, equivalent to 0.025% of the fund’s net assets as of September 19, 2008, to participate in the program through April 30, 2009. During the six months ended March 31, 2009, the expense related to these fees on the accompanying financial statements totaled $611,000. Subsequent to March 31, 2009, the U.S. Treasury Department elected to extend the period of guarantee through September 18, 2009. The fund paid total fees of $424,000, equivalent to 0.015% of the fund’s net assets as of September 19, 2008, to participate in this extension.

(2) Based on average shares outstanding.

(3) This column reflects the impact, if any, of certain reimbursements/waivers from CRMC. During the periods shown, CRMC reduced fees for investment advisory services. In addition, during some of the periods shown, CRMC paid a portion of the fund's transfer agent fees for certain retirement plan share classes and, due to lower short-term interest rates, agreed to pay a portion of fees and expenses for some of the share classes.

Expense example

unaudited

As a shareholder of the fund, you incur certain ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution and service (12b-1) fees, and other expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the fund so you can 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 (October 1, 2008, through March 31, 2009).

Actual expenses:

The first line of each share class in the table on the next page 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:

The second line of each share class in the table on the next page provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the actual expense ratio for the share class and an assumed rate of return of 5.00% per year before expenses, which is not the actual return of the share class. 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 5.00% hypothetical example with the 5.00% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

Notes:

There are some account fees that are charged to certain types of accounts, such as individual retirement accounts (generally, a $10 fee is charged to set up the account and an additional $10 fee is charged to the account annually), that would increase the amount of expenses paid on your account. In addition, retirement plan participants may be subject to certain fees charged by the plan sponsor. You can estimate the impact of these fees by adding the amount of the fees to the total estimated expenses you paid on your account during the period as calculated above. In addition, your ending account value would be lower by the amount of these fees.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs. Therefore, the second line of each share class in the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds.

*The “expenses paid during period” are equal to the “annualized expense ratio,” multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by the number of days in the period (182), and divided by 365 (to reflect the one-half year period).

1. Organization and significant accounting policies

Organization – The Tax-Exempt Money Fund of America (the "fund") is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as an open-end, diversified management investment company. The fund seeks to provide income free from federal taxes, while preserving capital and maintaining liquidity, by investing primarily in securities exempt from regular federal income tax.

The fund has two share classes consisting of one retail share class (Class A) and one retirement plan share class (R-5). The retirement plan share class (R-5) is generally offered only through eligible employer-sponsored retirement plans. Each share class is sold without any sales charges and do not carry any conversion rights.

Holders of all share classes have equal pro rata rights to assets, dividends and liquidation proceeds.Each share class has identical voting rights, except for the exclusive right to vote on matters affecting only its class. Share classes have different fees and expenses ("class-specific fees and expenses"), primarily due to different arrangements for distribution, administrative and shareholder services. Differences in class-specific fees and expenses will result in differences in net investment income and, therefore, the payment of different per-share dividends by each class.

Significant accounting policies – The financial statements have been prepared to comply with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These principles require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts and disclosures. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies followed by the fund:

Net asset value – The fund values its shares in accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") rules, using the penny-rounding method, which permits the fund to maintain a constant net asset value of $1.00 per share.

Security valuation –Fixed-income securities, including short-term securities purchased with more than 60 days left to maturity, are valued at prices obtained from an independent pricing service when such prices are available. However, where the investment adviser deems it appropriate, such securities will be valued at the mean quoted bid and asked prices (or bid prices, if asked prices are not available) or at prices for securities of comparable maturity, quality and type. Short-term securities purchased within 60 days to maturity are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. The value of short-term securities originally purchased with maturities greater than 60 days is determined based on an amortized value to par when they reach 60 days or less remaining to maturity.

Securities and other assets for which representative market quotations are not readily available or are considered unreliable by the investment adviser are fair valued as determined in good faith under procedures adopted by authority of the fund's board of trustees. Various factors may be reviewed in order to make a good faith determination of a security’s fair value. These factors include, but are not limited to, the type and cost of the security; contractual or legal restrictions on resale of the security; relevant financial or business developments of the issuer; actively traded similar or related securities; conversion or exchange rights on the security; related corporate actions; significant events occurring after the close of trading in the security; and changes in overall market conditions.

Security transactions and related investment income – Security transactions are recorded by the fund as of the date the trades are executed with brokers. Interest income is recognized on an accrual basis. Market discounts, premiums and original issue discounts on fixed-income securities are amortized daily over the expected life of the security.

Class allocations –Income, fees and expenses (other than class-specific fees and expenses) are allocated daily among the two share classes based on the relative value of their settled shares. Unrealized gains and losses are allocated daily among the two share classes based on their relative net assets. Class-specific fees and expenses, such as distribution, administrative and shareholder services, are charged directly to the respective share class.

Dividends to shareholders – Dividends paid to shareholders are declared daily after the determination of the fund’s net investment income and are paid to shareholders monthly.

2. Risk factors

Investing in the fund may involve certain risks including, but not limited to, those described below.

Normally, the fund invests substantially in high-quality money market instruments that are issued by states, territories or possessions of the United States and the District of Columbia, and their political subdivisions, agencies and instrumentalities. These instruments are exempt from regular federal income tax. However, the fund may purchase securities that would subject a shareholder to federal alternative minimum taxes. Therefore, while the fund’s distributions from tax-exempt securities are not subject to income tax, a portion or all of the distributions may be included in determining a shareholder’s federal alternative minimum tax.

The value of the securities held by the fund may be affected by changing interest rates and by changes in credit ratings of the securities. For example, the values of these securities may decline when interest rates rise and increase when interest rates fall. The fund may also invest in municipal securities that are supported by credit and liquidity enhancements. Changes in the credit quality of banks and financial institutions providing these enhancements could cause the fund to experience a loss and may affect its share price. In addition, the fund may invest a substantial portion of its portfolio in taxable short-term debt securities in response to abnormal market conditions (which may detract from achieving the fund's objective over the short term).

3. Taxation and distributions                                                                                     

Federal income taxation – The fund complies with the requirements under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to mutual funds and intends to distribute substantially all of its net income each year. The fund is not subject to income taxes to the extent taxable income is distributed. Generally, income earned by the fund is exempt from federal income taxes.

As of and during the period ended March 31, 2009, the fund did not have a liability for any unrecognized tax benefits. The fund recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the statement of operations. During the period, the fund did not incur any interest or penalties.

The fund is not subject to examination by U.S. federal tax authorities for tax years before 2004 and by state tax authorities for tax years before 2003.

Distributions – Distributions paid to shareholders are based on net investment income determined on a tax basis, which may differ from net investment income for financial reporting purposes. As of March 31, 2009, there were no material differences between book and tax reporting.The fiscal year in which amounts are distributed may differ from the year in which the net investment income is recorded by the fund for financial reporting purposes.

The components of distributable earnings on a tax basis are reported as of the fund’s most recent year-end. As of September 30, 2008, the components of distributable earnings on a tax basis were as follows:

	(dollars in thousands)
Undistributed tax-exempt income				$	158
Short-term loss carryforwards*:
Expiring 2009	$	(27	)
Expiring 2010		(2	)
Expiring 2011		(3	)		(32	)
*The short-term loss carryforwards will be used to offset any short-term gains realized by the fund in the current year or in subsequent years through the expiration dates. The fund will not make distributions from short-term gains while short-term loss carryforwards remain.

As of March 31, 2009, the tax basis unrealized appreciation (depreciation) and cost of investment securities were as follows:

(dollars in thousands)
Gross unrealized appreciation on investment securities	$	221
Gross unrealized depreciation on investment securities		(8	)
Net unrealized appreciation on investment securities		213
Cost of investment securities		1,027,038

Tax-exempt income distributions paid or accrued to shareholders were as follows (dollars in thousands):

Share class	Six months ended March 31, 2009		Year ended September 30, 2008
Class A	$	3,052	$	13,528
Class R-5		401		1,834
Total	$	3,453	$	15,362

4. Fees and transactions with related parties

Capital Research and Management Company ("CRMC"), the fund’s investment adviser, is the parent company of American Funds Service Company® ("AFS"), the fund’s transfer agent, and American Funds Distributors,® Inc. ("AFD"), the principal underwriter of the fund’s shares.

Investment advisory services - The Investment Advisory and Service Agreement with CRMC providesfor monthly fees accrued daily. These fees are based on a declining series of annual rates beginning with 0.390% on the first $200 million of daily net assets and decreasing to 0.290% on such assets in excess of $1.2 billion. CRMC waived a portion of its investment advisory services fee commencing on September 1, 2004, and terminating on December 31, 2008. During the six months ended March 31, 2009, total investment advisory services fees waived by CRMC were $96,000.

Due to lower short-term interest rates, CRMC agreed to pay a portion of fees and expenses. For the six months ended March 31, 2009, the total fees paid by CRMC were $61,000 and $14,000 for Classes A and R-5, respectively.

Class-specific fees and expenses – Expenses that are specific to individual share classes are accrued directly to the respective share class. The principal class-specific fees and expenses are described below:

Distribution services – The fund has adopted a plan of distribution for Class A shares. Under the plan the board of trustees approves certain categories of expenses that are used to finance activities primarily intended to sell fund shares and service existing accounts. The plan provides for payments, based on an annualized percentage of average daily net assets, of up to 0.15%. This class may use a portion of average daily net assets to pay service fees, or to compensate AFD for paying service fees, to firms that have entered into agreements with AFD for providing certain shareholder services.

Transfer agent services –The fund has a transfer agent agreement with AFS for Class A. Under this agreement, this share class compensates AFS for transfer agent services including shareholder recordkeeping, communications and transaction processing. AFS is also compensated for certain transfer agent services provided to Class R-5 from the administrative services fees paid to CRMC described below.

Administrative services – The fund has an administrative services agreement with CRMC to provide transfer agent and other related shareholder services for Class R-5. This share class also pays AFS additional amounts for certain transfer agent services. CRMC and AFS may use these fees to compensate third parties for performing these services.

Trustees’ deferred compensation – Since the adoption of the deferred compensation plan in 1993, trustees who are unaffiliated with CRMC may elect to defer the cash payment of part or all of their compensation. These deferred amounts, which remain as liabilities of the fund, are treated as if invested in shares of the fund. These amounts represent general, unsecured liabilities of the fund and vary according to the total return of the fund. Trustees’ compensation on the accompanying financial statements includes the current fees (either paid in cash or deferred) and the net increase or decrease in the value of the deferred amounts.

Affiliated officers and trustees – Officers and certain trustees of the fund are or may be considered to be affiliated with CRMC, AFS, and AFD. No affiliated officers or directors/trustees received any compensation directly from the fund.

5. Disclosure of fair value measurements

The fund adopted the Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157 (“FAS 157”), Fair Value Measurements, on October 1, 2008. FAS 157 requires the fund to classify its assets and liabilities into three levels based on the method used to value the assets or liabilities.Level 1 values are based on quoted prices in active markets for identical securities. Level 2 values are based on significant observable market inputs, such as quoted prices for similar securities and quoted prices in inactive markets. Level 3 values are based on significant unobservable inputs that reflect the fund’s determination of assumptions that market participants might reasonably use in valuing the securities. The valuation levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with the underlying investment. For example, U.S. government securities are generally high-quality and liquid; however, they are reflected as Level 2 because the inputs used to determine fair value may not always be quoted prices in an active market.At March 31, 2009, all of the fund’s investment securities were classified as Level 2.

7. Temporary Guarantee Program for Money Market Funds

The Board of Trustees approved participation in the U.S. Treasury Department Guarantee Program for Money Market Funds (the “Program”). Subject to provisions contained in a guarantee agreement signed by the fund, the Program guarantees that in the event the fund is liquidated, each shareholder of record on September 19, 2008, will receive $1.00 net asset value for the lesser of the shares held on September 19, 2008, and the date the fund’s net asset value falls below $0.995. Shares purchased subsequent to September 19, 2008, are not covered under the Program to the extent that the number of shares held in a particular account exceeds the number of shares held in that account on September 19, 2008. During the six months ended March 31, 2009, the fund paid total fees of $232,000, equivalent to 0.025% of the fund’s net assets as of September 19, 2008, to participate in the program through April 30, 2009. During the six months ended March 31, 2009, the expense related to these fees on the accompanying financial statements totaled $201,000.  Subsequent to March 31, 2009, the U.S. Treasury Department elected to extend the period of guarantee through September 18, 2009. The fund paid total fees of $139,000, equivalent to 0.015% of the fund’s net assets as of September 19, 2008, to participate in this extension.

Expense example

unaudited

As a shareholder of the fund, you incur certain ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution and service (12b-1) fees, and other expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the fund so you can 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 (October 1, 2008, through March 31, 2009).

Actual expenses:

The first line of each share class in the table on the next page 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:

The second line of each share class in the table on the next page provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the actual expense ratio for the share class and an assumed rate of return of 5.00% per year before expenses, which is not the actual return of the share class. 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 5.00% hypothetical example with the 5.00% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

Notes:

There are some account fees that are charged to certain types of accounts, such as individual retirement accounts (generally, a $10 fee is charged to set up the account and an additional $10 fee is charged to the account annually), that would increase the amount of expenses paid on your account. In addition, retirement plan participants may be subject to certain fees charged by the plan sponsor. You can estimate the impact of these fees by adding the amount of the fees to the total estimated expenses you paid on your account during the period as calculated above. In addition, your ending account value would be lower by the amount of these fees.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs. Therefore, the second line of each share class in the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds.

	Beginning account value 10/1/2008		Ending account value 3/31/2009		Expenses paid during period*		Annualized expense ratio
Class A -- actual return	$	1,000.00	$	1,003.31	$	2.35		.47	%
Class A -- assumed 5% return		1,000.00		1,022.59		2.37		.47
Class R-5 -- actual return		1,000.00		1,003.18		2.50		.50
Class R-5 -- assumed 5% return		1,000.00		1,022.44		2.52		.50

*The “expenses paid during period” are equal to the “annualized expense ratio,” multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by the number of days in the period (182), and divided by 365 (to reflect the one-half year period).

Such suggestions must be sent in writing to the nominating and governance committee of the Registrant, c/o the Registrant’s Secretary, and must be accompanied by complete biographical and occupational data on the prospective nominee, along with a written consent of the prospective nominee for consideration of his or her name by the nominating and governance committee.
