LETTER FROMTHE PRESIDENTAND INVESTMENT ADVISOR
Dear Shareholders:
We are pleased to present this semiannual report for the BB&T Equity Index Fund, covering the six-month period through June 30, 2007. Stock-market returns were volatile, but a spring rally pushed the S&P 500 Index to a 6.96% gain.
Stocks posted strong gains between January and late February. Private equity firms engaged in record levels of acquisitions, while public companies repurchased large volumes of shares. Both trends boosted stock prices by reducing the supply of outstanding shares and supporting investors’ confidence that valuations remained attractive. Healthy corporate profit growth and a solid economy also encouraged investors.
The market suffered a sharp decline in late February and early March, when signs emerged that the housing slump was deepening. In particular, investors worried about reports of increasing defaults on sub-prime mortgages, which are issued to homebuyers with weak finances. Market-watchers feared that housing weakness and rising defaults could harm consumer spending and lead to tighter credit requirements, both of which would likely drag down economic growth and corporate profits.
Stocks rebounded quickly, however, and posted strong returns through early June as the economy appeared to pick up steam, corporations generated further profit growth and public corporations and private-equity firms continued their acquisition spree. The market then pulled back as the economic outlook became cloudier.
Energy and materials stocks rode higher commodity prices to the market’s strongest gains. Telecommunications shares also performed well, as firms in that sector benefited from improving business fundamentals. Financial stocks lost ground, as investors worried about potential fallout from the sub-prime mortgage crisis, while investors’ concerns about softening consumer spending led to weak returns for consumer stocks.
Thank you for selecting the BB&T Equity Index Fund. We look forward to serving your investment needs.
Sincerely,
Keith F. Karlawish, CFA

Portfolio Holdings Summary
(Unaudited)
Investment Type | % of Investment | ||
S&P 500 Index Master Portfolio | 100.00 | % | |
Total | 100.00 | % | |
For a summary of the S&P 500 Index Master Portfolio holdings, please see the accompanying financial statements of the Master Portfolio.
Expense Examples (Unaudited)
As a shareholder of the BB&T Equity Index Fund (the “Fund”), you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases and sales and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees and other Fund expenses.
These examples are 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.
These examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from January 1, 2007 through June 30, 2007.
Actual Example
The table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information below, 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 table under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Beginning Account Value 1/1/07 | Ending Account Value 6/30/07 | Expenses Paid During Period* 1/1/07 - 6/30/07 | Annualized Expense Ratio During Period 1/1/07 - 6/30/07 | |||||||||||
BB&T Equity Index Fund | Class A | $ | 1,000.00 | $ | 1,062.30 | $ | 3.07 | 0.60 | % | |||||
Class B | 1,000.00 | 1,060.40 | 6.90 | 1.35 | % | |||||||||
Class C | 1,000.00 | 1,061.00 | 6.90 | 1.35 | % | |||||||||
Institutional Class** | 1,000.00 | 1.029.97 | 1.76 | 0.35 | % |
* | Expenses are equal to the Fund’s annualized expense ratios during the period, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by the number of days in the period, then divided by 365. |
** | BB&T Equity Index Institutional Class Shares commenced operations May 1, 2007. The expenses paid during the period and expense ratio shown are for the period May 1, 2007 to June 30, 2007. |
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based 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 this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of other funds.
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) on purchases. Therefore, 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.
Beginning Account Value 1/1/07 | Ending Account Value 6/30/07 | Expenses Paid During Period* 1/1/07 - 6/30/07 | Annualized Expense Ratio During Period 1/1/07 - 6/30/07 | |||||||||||
BB&T Equity Index Fund | Class A | $ | 1,000.00 | $ | 1,021.82 | $ | 3.01 | 0.60 | % | |||||
Class B | 1,000.00 | 1,018.10 | 6.76 | 1.35 | % | |||||||||
Class C | 1,000.00 | 1,018.10 | 6.76 | 1.35 | % | |||||||||
Institutional Class** | 1,000.00 | 1.023.06 | 1.76 | 0.35 | % |
* | Expenses are equal to the Fund’s annualized expense ratios during the period, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by the number of days in the period, then divided by 365. |
** | BB&T Equity Index Institutional Class Shares commenced operations May 1, 2007. The expenses paid during the period and expense ratio shown are for the period May 1, 2007 to June 30, 2007. |

Notes to the Financial Statements
June 30, 2007
(Unaudited)
1. | Organization: |
The BB&T Equity Index Fund (the “Fund”) commenced operations on September 11, 2000 and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as a diversified open-end investment company. The Fund is a separate series of the BB&T Funds (“Trust”), a Massachusetts business trust organized in 1992. The Fund invests substantially all of its investable assets in the S&P 500 Index Master Portfolio (the “Master Portfolio”) of the Master Investment Portfolio (“MIP”), a diversified open-end management investment company registered under the of 1940 Act, rather than in a portfolio of securities. The Master Portfolio has substantially the same investment objective as the Fund. Barclays Global Fund Advisors serves as investment advisor for the Master Portfolio. The financial statements of the Master Portfolio, including the schedule of investments in securities, are contained elsewhere in this report and should be read in conjunction with the Fund’s financial statements. The value of the Fund’s investment in the Master Portfolio reflects the Fund’s interest of 4.44% in the net assets of the Master Portfolio at June 30, 2007.
The Fund is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares without par value. The Fund offers four classes of shares: Class A Shares, Class B Shares, Class B Shares, and Institutional Class Shares. Class A Shares of the Fund have a maximum sales charge of 5.75% as a percentage of original purchase price. Certain purchases of Class A Shares will not be subject to a front-end sales charge, but will be subject to a contingent deferred sales charge (“CDSC”). As of May 1, 2007, a CDSC of up to 1.00% of the purchase price will be charged to the shareholder if the shares are redeemed within two years after purchase. For purchases of $1 million or more prior to May 1, 2007, a CDSC of up to 1.00% of the purchase price will be charged to the shareholder if the shares are redeemed in the first year after purchase. The Class B Shares of the Fund are offered without any front-end sales charge but will be subject to a CDSC ranging from a maximum of 5.00% if redeemed less than one year after purchase to 0.00% if redeemed more than six years after purchase. The Class C Shares of the Fund are offered without any front-end sales charge but will be subject to a maximum CDSC of 1.00% if redeemed less than one year after purchase. The Institutional Class Shares commenced operations on May 1, 2007. The Institutional Class Shares of the Fund are offered without any front-end sales charge and without any CDSC.
Each class of shares has identical rights and privileges except with respect to the fees paid under the distribution plan, voting rights on matters affecting a single class of shares and the exchange privilege of each class of shares.
Under the Fund’s organizational documents, its Officers and Trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Fund. In addition, in the normal course of business, the Fund may enter into contracts with their vendors and others that provide for general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund. However, based on experience, the Fund expects that risk of loss to be remote.
2. | Significant Accounting Policies: |
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements. The policies are in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses for the period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
(A) | Recent Accounting Standards—In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement on Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements.” This standard establishes a single authoritative definition of fair value, sets out a framework for measuring fair value and requires additional disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 applies to fair value measurements already required or permitted by existing standards. SFAS No. 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim periods within those fiscal years. The changes to current GAAP from the application of SFAS No. 157 relate to the definition of fair value, the methods used to measure fair value, and the expanded disclosures about fair value measurements. As of June 30, 2007, the Fund does not believe the adoption of SFAS No. 157 will |

(Unaudited)
impact the financial statement amounts, however, additional disclosures may be required about the inputs used to develop the measurements and the effect of certain of the measurements on changes in net assets for the period. |
In July 2006, the FASB released FASB Interpretation No. 48 “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” (“FIN 48”). FIN 48 provides guidance for how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, presented and disclosed in the financial statements. FIN 48 requires the evaluation of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Fund’s tax return to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions not deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold would be recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year. Adoption of FIN 48 is required no later than the last business day of the first financial statement reporting period for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006 and is to be applied to all open tax years as of the effective date. As of June 30, 2007, management has substantially completed their analysis and has determined that the adoption of FIN 48 will not have an impact on the financial statements.
(B) | Security Valuation—The Fund records its investments in the Master Portfolio at fair value. Valuation of securities held by the Master Portfolio is discussed in Note 1 of the Master Portfolio’s Notes to Financial Statements, which are included elsewhere in this report. |
(C) | Distributions to Shareholders—Distributions from net investment income are declared and paid quarterly by the Fund. Distributable net realized capital gains, if any, are declared and distributed at least annually. The amount of distributions from net investment income and from net realized gains are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These “book/tax” differences are either considered temporary or permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are permanent in nature (e.g. reclass of market discounts, net operating loss, gain/loss, paydowns, and distributions), such amounts are reclassified within the composition of net assets based on their federal tax-basis treatment; temporary differences (e.g., wash sales) do not require reclassification. Distributions to shareholders which exceed net investment income and net realized gains for tax purposes are reported as distributions of capital. |
(D) | Allocation Methodology—The investment income, expenses (other than class specific expenses) and realized and unrealized gains and losses on investments are allocated to each class of shares based on their relative net assets on the date the income is earned, expenses are accrued, or realized and unrealized gains and losses are incurred. |
(E) | Expenses—Expenses directly attributable to a class of shares are charged directly to that class. Expenses directly attributable to the Fund are charged to that Fund. Expenses not directly attributable to the Fund are allocated proportionately among all BB&T Funds in relation to the net assets of each fund or on another reasonable basis. Expenses which are attributable to both the BB&T Funds and BB&T Variable Insurance Funds are allocated across BB&T Funds and BB&T Variable Insurance Funds, based upon relative net assets or on another reasonable basis. |
(F) | Securities Transactions and Income Recognition—The Fund records daily, its proportionate interest in the net investment income and realized/unrealized capital gains and losses of the Master Portfolio. The performance of the Fund is directly affected by the performance of the Master Portfolio. |
(H) | Federal Income Taxes—It is the policy of the Fund to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company by complying with the provisions available to certain investment companies, as defined in applicable sections of the Internal Revenue Code, and to make distributions of net investment income and net realized capital gains sufficient to relieve it from all, or substantially all, federal income taxes. Accordingly, no provision for federal income tax is required. |
3. | Related Party Transactions: |
Under its Investment Advisory Agreement with respect to the Fund, BB&T Asset Management, Inc. (“BB&T AM” or “Adviser”) exercises general oversight over the investment performance of the Fund. BB&T AM will advise the Board of Trustees if investment of all of the Fund’s assets in shares of the Master Portfolio is no longer an appropriate means of achieving the Fund’s

investment objective. For periods in which all the Fund’s assets are not invested in the Master Portfolio, BB&T AM may receive an investment advisory fee from the Fund. For the six-months ended June 30, 2007, all of the Fund’s investable assets were invested in the Master Portfolio and BB&T AM received no fees.
BB&T AM serves the administrator to the Trust pursuant to the Administration Agreement. The Fund pays its portion of a fee to BB&T AM for providing administration services based on the aggregate assets of the Trust and the BB&T Variable Insurance Funds at a rate of 0.11% on the first $3.5 billion of average daily net assets; 0.075% on the next $1.5 billion of average daily net assets; 0.6% on the next $1 billion of average daily net assets; and 0.04% of average daily net assets over $6 billion. This fee is accrued daily and payable on a monthly basis. Expenses incurred are reflected on the Statement of Operations as “Administration fees”. During the six-months ended June 30, 2007, BB&T AM voluntarily waived administration fees of $1,292, and these waivers are not subject to recoupment in subsequent fiscal periods. Effective April 23, 2007, pursuant to a sub-administration agreement with BB&T AM, PFPC Inc. (“PFPC”) serves as sub-administrator to the Trust subject to the general supervision of the Board and BB&T AM. For these services, PFPC is entitled to a fee, payable by BB&T AM. Prior to April 23, 2007, BISYS Fund Services Ohio, Inc. (“BISYS”) served as sub-administrator to the Trust.
Effective April 23, 2007, PFPC Inc. serves as the Fund’s transfer agent and receives compensation by the Fund for these services. Expenses incurred are reflected on the Statement of Operations as “Transfer agent fees”. Prior to April 23, 2007, BISYS served as the Fund’s transfer agent.
On April 23, 2007, BB&T AM’s Chief Compliance Officer (“CCO”) also began to serve as the Fund’s CCO. Since April 23, 2007, the CCO’s compensation is reviewed and approved by the Fund’s Board and paid by BB&T AM. However, the Fund reimburses BB&T AM for its allocable portion of the CCO’s salary. As a result, the CCO fee paid by the Fund is only part of the total compensation received by the CCO. Prior to April 23, 2007, under a Compliance Services Agreement between the Fund and BISYS (the “CCO Agreement”), BISYS made an employee available to serve as the Fund’s CCO. Under the CCO Agreement, BISYS also provided infrastructure and support in implementing the written policies and procedures comprising the Fund’s compliance program, including support services to the CCO. For the services provided under the CCO Agreement, the Fund paid BISYS $560 for the six-months ended June 30, 2007 plus certain out of pocket expenses. Expenses incurred are reflected on the Statement of Operations as “Compliance service fees”.
Effective April 23, 2007, BB&T AM Distributors, Inc. (the “Distributor”) serves as the Fund’s distributor pursuant to an Underwriting Agreement. Prior to April 23, 2007, BB&T Funds Distributor, Inc. (“BBTFDI”) served as distributor to the Fund. BBTFDI and the Distributor contractually agreed to waive 0.25% of the Class A shares distribution fees throughout the year. Distribution fees totaling $135,605 of were waived for the six-months ended June 30, 2007. Distribution fee waivers are included in the Statement of Operations as “Less expenses waived by the Distributor”, and these waivers are not subject to recoupment in subsequent fiscal periods.
The Fund has adopted a Distribution and Shareholder Services Plan (the “Plan”) in accordance with Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. The Plan provides for payments to the distributor of up to 0.50%, 1.00% and 1.00% of the average daily net assets of the Fund for Class A Shares, Class B Shares and Class C Shares, respectively. The fees may be used by the Distributors to pay banks, broker dealers and other institutions, including affiliates of the advisor. The Distributor, is entitled to receive commissions on sales of shares of the Fund. For the six-months ended June 30, 2007, BBTFDI and the Distributor received $16,213, and 2,217, respectively from commissions earned on sold shares of the Fund. Commissions paid to affiliated broker-dealers during the six-months ended June 30, 2007 were $15,745.
The Adviser and/or its affiliates may pay out of their own assets compensation to broker-dealers and other persons for the sale and distribution of the shares and/or for the servicing of the shares. These are additional payments over and above the sales charge (including Rule 12b-1 fees) and service fees paid by the Fund. The payments, which may be different for different financial institutions, will not change the price an investor will pay for shares or the amount that the Fund will receive for the sale of the shares.

Certain Officers and Trustees of the Trust are affiliated with the Adviser, the administrator, or the sub-administrator. Such Officers and Trustees receive no compensation from the Trust for serving in their respective roles. Each of the five Trustees who are non-interested persons (as defined in the 1940 Act) of the Trust serve on both the Board and the Audit Committee and are compensated $6,000 per quarter and $2,400 for each regularly scheduled meeting, plus reimbursement for certain expenses. Additionally, the Chairman of the Board and Audit Committee Chairman receive an annual retainer of $6,000 and $10,000, respectively. During the six-months ended June 30, 2007, actual Trustee compensation was $185,926 in total from the Trust, of which $2,655 was allocated to the Fund.
4. | Federal Income Taxes: |
At December 31, 2006, the Fund’s most recent fiscal year end, the Fund has net capital loss carryforwards available to offset future net capital gains, if any, to the extent provided by the Treasury regulations. To the extent that these carryforwards are used to offset future capital gains, it is probable that the gains that are offset will not be distributed to shareholders.

S&P 500 Index Master Portfolio
Notes to Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
Master Investment Portfolio (“MIP”) is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end series management investment company organized as a Delaware statutory trust. As of June 30, 2007, MIP offered the following separate portfolios: Active Stock, Bond Index, CoreAlpha Bond, Government Money Market, LifePath Retirement, LifePath 2010, LifePath 2020, LifePath 2030, LifePath 2040, Money Market, Prime Money Market, S&P 500 Index and Treasury Money Market Master Portfolios.
These financial statements relate only to the S&P 500 Index Master Portfolio (the “Master Portfolio”).
Pursuant to MIP’s organizational documents, the Master Portfolio’s officers and trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities that may arise out of the performance of their duties to the Master Portfolio. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Master Portfolio enters into contracts with service providers that contain general indemnification clauses. The Master Portfolio’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Master Portfolio that have not yet occurred.
1. | Significant Accounting Policies |
The following significant accounting policies are consistently followed by MIP in the preparation of its financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for investment companies. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Security Valuation
The securities and other assets of the Master Portfolio are generally valued using market valuations. A market valuation generally means a valuation (i) obtained from an exchange, a pricing service or a major market maker (or dealer), (ii) based on a price quotation or other equivalent indication of value supplied by an exchange, a pricing service or a major market maker (or dealer) or (iii) based on amortized cost. In the case of shares of funds that are not traded on an exchange, a market valuation means such fund’s published net asset value per share. The investment adviser may use various pricing services or discontinue the use of any pricing service. A price obtained from a pricing service based on such pricing service’s valuation matrix may be considered a market valuation. In the event that current market valuations are not readily available or such valuations do not reflect current market values, the affected investments will be valued using fair value pricing pursuant to the pricing policy and procedures approved by the Board of Trustees of MIP (the “Board”).
Investments that may be valued using fair value pricing include, but are not limited to: (i) an unlisted security related to corporate actions; (ii) a restricted security (i.e., one that may not be publicly sold without registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended); (iii) a security whose trading has been suspended or which has been de-listed from its primary trading exchange; (iv) a security that is thinly traded; (v) a security in default or bankruptcy proceedings for which there is no current market quotation; (vi) a security affected by currency controls or restrictions; and (vii) a security affected by a significant event (i.e., an event that occurs after the close of the markets on which the security is traded but before the time as of which the Master Portfolio’s net assets are computed and that may materially affect the value of the Master Portfolio’s investments). Examples of events that may be “significant events” are government actions, natural disasters, armed conflict, acts of terrorism, and significant market fluctuations.
Valuing the Master Portfolio’s investments using fair value pricing will result in using prices for those investments that may differ from current market valuations. Accordingly, fair value pricing could result in a difference between the prices used to calculate the Master Portfolio’s net assets and the prices used by the Master Portfolio’s benchmark index, which, in turn, could result in a difference between the Master Portfolio’s performance and the performance of the Master Portfolio’s benchmark index.
Security Transactions and Income Recognition
Security transactions are accounted for on trade date. Dividend income is recognized on the ex-dividend date, net of any foreign tax withheld at source, and interest income is accrued daily. Distributions received by the Master Portfolio may include a

Notes to Financial Statements, Continued
(Unaudited)
return of capital that is estimated by the management. Such amounts are recorded as a reduction of the cost of investments or reclassified to capital gains. Realized gains and losses on investment transactions are determined using the specific identification method. The Master Portfolio amortizes premiums and accretes discounts on debt securities purchased using a constant yield to maturity method.
Federal Income Taxes
In general, MIP believes that the Master Portfolio has and will continue to be operated in a manner so as to qualify it as a non-publicly traded partnership for federal income tax purposes. Provided that the Master Portfolio so qualifies, it will not be subject to any federal income tax on its income and gains (if any). However, each interestholder in the Master Portfolio will be taxed on its distributive share of the Master Portfolio’s taxable income in determining its federal income tax liability. As a non-publicly traded partnership for federal income tax purposes, the Master Portfolio will be deemed to have “passed through” to its interestholders any interest, dividends, gains or losses of the Master Portfolio for such purposes. The determination of such share will be made in accordance with the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and regulations promulgated thereunder.
It is intended that the Master Portfolio’s assets, income and distributions will be managed in such a way that an entity electing and qualifying as a “regulated investment company” under the Code can continue to so qualify by investing substantially all of its assets through the Master Portfolio, provided that the regulated investment company meets other requirements for such qualifications not within the control of the Master Portfolio (e.g., distributing at least 90% of the regulated investment company’s “investment company taxable income” annually).
As of June 30, 2007, the cost of investments for federal income tax purposes for the Master Portfolio was $2,604,285,144. Net unrealized appreciation aggregated $480,414,717, of which $663,493,538 represented gross unrealized appreciation on securities and $183,078,821 represented gross unrealized depreciation on securities.
Futures Contracts
The Master Portfolio may purchase futures contracts to gain exposure to market changes, as this may be more efficient or cost effective than actually buying the securities. A futures contract is an agreement between two parties to buy and sell a security at a set price on a future date and is exchange-traded. Upon entering into a futures contract, the Master Portfolio is required to pledge to the broker and hold in a segregated account, an amount of cash, U.S. government securities or other high-quality debt and equity securities equal to the minimum “initial margin” requirements of the exchange. Pursuant to the contract, the Master Portfolio agrees to receive from or pay to the broker an amount of cash equal to the daily fluctuation in the value of the contract. Such receipts or payments are known as “variation margin” and are recorded by the Master Portfolio as receivables or payables in the accompanying Statement of Assets and Liabilities. When the contract is closed, the Master Portfolio records a “realized gain (loss) on futures contracts” in its Statement of Operations, equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed. Risks of entering into futures contracts include the possibility that there may be an illiquid market and that a change in the value of the contracts may not correlate with changes in the value of the underlying securities. The amount at risk for futures contracts may exceed the amount reflected in the financial statements.
As of June 30, 2007, the Master Portfolio has pledged to brokers a U.S. Treasury Bill with a face amount of $3,150,000 for initial margin requirements on outstanding futures contracts.
Repurchase Agreements
The Master Portfolio may enter into repurchase agreements with banks and securities dealers. These transactions involve the purchase of securities with a simultaneous commitment to resell the securities to the bank or the dealer at an agreed-upon date and price. A repurchase agreement is accounted for as an investment by the Master Portfolio, collateralized by securities, which are delivered to the Master Portfolio’s custodian or to an agent bank under a tri-party agreement. The securities are marked-to-market daily and additional securities are acquired as needed, to ensure that their value equals or exceeds the repurchase price plus accrued interest.

2. | Agreements and other Transactions with Affiliates |
Pursuant to an Investment Advisory Contract with the Master Portfolio, Barclays Global Fund Advisors (“BGFA”) provides investment advisory services to the Master Portfolio. BGFA is a California corporation indirectly owned by Barclays Bank PLC. BGFA is entitled to receive an annual investment advisory fee of 0.05% of the average daily net assets of the Master Portfolio as compensation for investment advisory services. From time to time, BGFA may waive a portion of its advisory fees. Any such waivers will reduce the expenses of the Master Portfolio and, accordingly, have a favorable impact on its performance.
The fees and expenses of the Master Portfolio’s trustees who are not “interested persons” of MIP, as defined in the 1940 Act (“Independent Trustees”), counsel to the Independent Trustees and MIP’s independent registered public accounting firm (the “independent expenses”) are paid directly by the Master Portfolio. BGFA has contractually agreed to cap the expenses of the Master Portfolio at the rate at which the Master Portfolio pays an advisory fee to BGFA by providing an offsetting credit against the investment advisory fees paid by the Master Portfolio in an amount equal to the independent expenses.
For the six months ended June 30, 2007, BGFA credited investment advisory fees for the Master Portfolio in the amount of $29,159.
State Street Bank and Trust Company (“State Street”) serves as the custodian and sub-administrator of the Master Portfolio. State Street will not be entitled to receive fees for its custodial services, so long as it is entitled to receive a separate fee from Barclays Global Investors, N.A. (“BGI”) for its services as sub-administrator of the Master Portfolio.
SEI Investments Distribution Company (“SEI”) is the sponsor and placement agent for the Master Portfolio. SEI does not receive any fee from the Master Portfolio for acting as placement agent.
Pursuant to an exemptive order issued by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), BGI serves as securities lending agent for MIP. BGI is an affiliate of BGFA, the Master Portfolio’s investment adviser. As securities lending agent, BGI receives, as fees, a share of the income earned on investment of the cash collateral received for the loan of securities. For the six months ended June 30, 2007, BGI earned $143,148 in securities lending agent fees for its services to the Master Portfolio.
MIP has entered into an administration services arrangement with BGI, which has agreed to provide general administration services, such as managing and coordinating third-party service relationships (e.g., the Master Portfolio’s custodian, financial printer, legal counsel and independent registered public accounting firm), to the Master Portfolio. BGI is not entitled to compensation for providing administration services to the Master Portfolio, for so long as BGI is entitled to compensation for providing administration services to corresponding feeder funds that invest substantially all of their assets in the Master Portfolio, or BGI (or an affiliate) receives investment advisory fees from the Master Portfolio. BGI may delegate certain of its administration duties to sub-administrators.
Cross trades for the six months ended June 30, 2007, if any, were executed by the Master Portfolio pursuant to Rule 17a-7 under the 1940 Act. Cross trading is the buying or selling of portfolio securities between funds to which BGFA (or an affiliate) serves as investment adviser. At its regularly scheduled quarterly meetings, the Board reviews such transactions as of the most recent calendar quarter for compliance with the requirements and restrictions set forth by Rule 17a-7.
The Master Portfolio may invest in the Institutional Shares of certain money market funds managed by BGFA, the Master Portfolio’s investment adviser, including the Government Money Market Fund (“GMMF”), Institutional Money Market Fund (“IMMF”), Prime Money Market Fund (“PMMF”) and Treasury Money Market Fund (“TMMF”) of Barclays Global Investors Funds. The GMMF, IMMF, PMMF and TMMF are feeder funds in a master/feeder fund structure that invest substantially all of their assets in the Government Money Market Master Portfolio, Money Market Master Portfolio, Prime Money Market Master Portfolio and Treasury Money Market Master Portfolio (collectively, the “Money Market Master Portfolios”), respectively, which are also managed by BGFA. While the GMMF, IMMF, PMMF and TMMF do not directly charge an investment advisory fee, the Money Market Master Portfolios in which they invest do charge an investment advisory fee. Income distributions from the GMMF, IMMF, PMMF and TMMF are declared daily and paid monthly from net investment income. Income distributions earned by the Master Portfolio from temporary cash investments are recorded as interest from affiliated issuers in the accompanying Statements

of Operations. Income distributions earned by the Master Portfolio from the investment of securities lending collateral, if any, are included in securities lending income in the accompanying Statements of Operations.
The Master Portfolio may invest its securities lending cash collateral, if any, in the BGI Cash Premier Fund LLC (“Premier Fund”), an affiliated private money market fund managed by BGFA. See Note 4 for additional information regarding the Premier Fund.
Certain officers and trustees of MIP are also officers of BGI and/or BGFA. As of June 30, 2007, these officers of BGI and/or BGFA collectively owned less than 1% of MIP’s outstanding beneficial interests.
3. | Investment Portfolio Transactions |
Purchases and sales of investment securities (excluding short-term securities and U.S. government obligations) for the Master Portfolio were $74,649,818 and $24,668,028, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2007.
For the six months ended June 30, 2007, the Master Portfolio paid in-kind redemption proceeds of portfolio securities in the amount of $129,169,877. In-kind redemptions are transactions in which an interestholder in the Master Portfolio redeems interests in the Master Portfolio and the Master Portfolio pays the proceeds of that redemption in the form of portfolio securities, rather than cash. Because capital gains or losses resulting from in-kind redemptions are not taxable to the Master Portfolio, and are not allocated to the other interestholders, the gains or losses are reclassified from accumulated net realized gains or losses to paid-in-capital at the end of the Master Portfolio’s tax year. The net realized gains or losses from in-kind redemptions for the six months ended June 30, 2007 are disclosed in the Master Portfolio’s Statement of Operations.
4. | Portfolio Securities Loaned |
The Master Portfolio may lend its investment securities to approved borrowers, such as brokers, dealers and other financial institutions. The borrower pledges and maintains with the Master Portfolio collateral consisting of cash, an irrevocable letter of credit issued by a bank, or securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government. The initial collateral received by the Master Portfolio is required to have a value of at least 102% of the market value of the loaned securities for securities traded on U.S. exchanges and a value of at least 105% for all other securities. The collateral is maintained thereafter, at a value equal to at least 100% of the current market value of the securities on loan. The risks to the Master Portfolio of securities lending are that the borrower may not provide additional collateral when required or may not return the securities when due.
During the six months ended June 30, 2007, the Master Portfolio received cash as collateral for securities loaned. The cash collateral received was invested in a joint account and in the Premier Fund. Pursuant to an exemptive order issued by the SEC, a portion of the cash collateral received was invested in a joint account with other investment funds managed by BGFA. The joint account invests in securities with remaining maturities of 397 days or less, repurchase agreements and money market mutual funds, including money market funds managed by BGFA. Repurchase agreements are fully collateralized by U.S. government securities or non-U.S. government debt securities. The Premier Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing in a portfolio of high-quality, short-term fixed-income instruments, including money market funds (which may be managed by BGFA or its affiliate) and other instruments that, at the time of investment, have remaining maturities of 397 calendar days or less than from the date of acquisition.
The market value of the securities on loan as of June 30, 2007 and the value of the related collateral are disclosed in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Securities lending income, as disclosed in the Master Portfolio’s Statement of Operations, represents the income earned from the investment of the cash collateral, net of rebates paid to, or fees paid by, borrowers and less the fees paid to BGI as securities lending agent.
5. | Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements |
In June 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued FASB Interpretation No. 48 (“FIN 48”), “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes – an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109.” FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in accordance with FASB Statement No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes.” This

(Unaudited)
interpretation prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. It also provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. As of June 30, 2007, management has evaluated the effects of applying the various provisions of FIN 48, and has determined that the Master Portfolio did not have a liability for uncertain tax positions or unrecognized tax benefits.
In September 2006, FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157 (“FAS 157”), “Fair Value Measurements.” FAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosure about fair value measurements. FAS 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. MIP is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of FAS 157 will have on the Master Portfolio’s financial statement disclosures.

Master Investment Portfolio
Board Review and Approval of Investment Advisory Contract (Unaudited)
Under Section 15(c) of the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”), the Master Investment Portfolio (“MIP”) Board of Trustees (the “Board”), including a majority of Trustees who are not interested persons of MIP, as that term is defined in the 1940 Act (the “Independent Trustees”), is required annually to consider each Investment Advisory Contract between MIP and BGFA (each, an “Advisory Contract”) on behalf of S&P 500 Index Master Portfolio (the “Master Portfolio”). As required by Section 15(c), the Board requested and BGFA provided such information as the Board deemed to be reasonably necessary to evaluate the terms of the Advisory Contract. At a meeting held on March 14-15, 2007, the Board approved the selection of BGFA and the continuance of the Advisory Contract, based on its review of qualitative and quantitative information provided by BGFA. In selecting BGFA and approving the Advisory Contract for the Master Portfolio, the Board, including the Independent Trustees, advised by their independent counsel, considered the following factors, none of which was controlling, and made the following conclusions:
Nature, Extent and Quality of Services Provided by BGFA
The Board determined that there would be no diminution in the scope of services required of BGFA under the Advisory Contract for the coming year as compared to the scope of services provided by BGFA over the past year. In reviewing the scope of these services, the Board considered BGFA’s investment philosophy and experience, noting that, over the past several years, BGFA and its affiliates have committed significant resources to the support of the Master Portfolio. The Board considered in particular that BGFA’s services for the Master Portfolio capitalize on BGFA’s core competencies as an industry leader in index management, including the effective use of its proprietary investment model that maximizes efficiencies in implementing index changes and in maintaining fully invested portfolios. The Board also considered services provided by BGFA and its affiliates in connection with analyzing corporate actions, employing customized trading strategies, reviewing securities lending opportunities and the oversight of intermediaries that provide BGI feeder fund shareholder support and processing functions.
The Board also considered BGFA’s compliance program and its compliance record with respect to the Master Portfolio. The Board noted that BGFA reports to the Board about portfolio management and compliance matters on a periodic basis in connection with regularly scheduled meetings of the Board and has made appropriate officers available as needed to provide further assistance with these matters. The Board also reviewed the background and experience of the persons responsible for the day-to-day management of the Master Portfolio. In addition to the above considerations, the Board reviewed and considered BGFA’s investment processes and strategies, and matters related to BGFA’s portfolio transaction policies and procedures. In addition, the Board reviewed the performance of (i) other registered investment companies with substantially similar investment objectives and strategies as the Master Portfolio for which BGFA provides investment advisory services, and (ii) the Master Portfolio’s published performance benchmark, the S&P 500 Index, as applicable. The Board noted that the Master Portfolio, net expenses, underperformed its published benchmark on an annualized basis over five years, three years and in 2006, and noted that the published benchmark is an index, which does not have expenses. The Board also noted that during BGFA’s term as investment adviser, the Master Portfolio has met its investment objectives consistently over time. Based on this review, the Board concluded that the nature, extent and quality of services to be provided by BGFA to the Master Portfolio under the Advisory Contract were appropriate and supported the Board’s approval of the Advisory Contract for the coming year.
Master Portfolio’s Expenses and Performance of the Master Portfolio
The Board reviewed statistical information prepared by Lipper Inc. (“Lipper”), an independent provider of investment company data, regarding the expense ratio components, including actual advisory fees, waivers/reimbursements, and gross and net total expenses of the Master Portfolio in comparison with the same information for other registered funds, objectively selected solely by Lipper, as comprising the Master Portfolio’s applicable peer group (the “Lipper Expense Group”). In addition, the Board reviewed statistical information prepared by Lipper regarding the performance of the Master Portfolio for the one-, three-, five-, and ten-year periods (or since inception) ended December 31, 2006, as applicable, as compared to the performance of other registered funds with similar investment objectives, as selected solely by Lipper (the “Lipper Performance Group”, and together with the Lipper Expense Group, the “Lipper Groups”). The Board considered that the component funds of the Lipper Groups are publicly available funds, more analogous in overall expense structure to the Barclays Global Investors Funds S&P 500 Stock Fund than to the underlying Master Portfolio, which is not available for investment except to other investment companies. In support of its review of the statistical information, the Board was provided with a detailed description of the methodology used by Lipper to determine the applicable Lipper Groups and to prepare this information.
The Board noted that the Master Portfolio outperformed the median performance of the funds in its respective Lipper Performance Group over relevant periods. The Board noted that the advisory fee and the overall expenses for the Master Portfolio were generally lower than the advisory fee rates and overall expenses of the funds in its respective Lipper Expense Group. Based

Board Review and Approval of Investment Advisory Contract (Unaudited), Continued
on this review, the Board concluded that the investment advisory fee and expense levels and the historical performance of the Master Portfolio, as managed by BGFA, as compared to the investment advisory fees and expense levels and performance of the funds in the Lipper Expense Group, were satisfactory for the purposes of approving the Advisory Contract for the coming year.
Costs of Services Provided to Master Portfolio and Profits Realized by BGFA and Affiliates
The Board reviewed information about the profitability to BGFA of the Master Portfolio, MIP, and the Barclays Global Investors Funds, separately and together, based on the fees payable to BGFA and its affiliates (including fees under the Advisory Contract), and all other sources of revenue and expense to BGFA and its affiliates for the last calendar year. The Board discussed the sources of direct and ancillary revenue with management, including the revenues to BGI from securities lending by MIP (including any securities lending by the Master Portfolio), revenues received from transactions for MIP executed through affiliates (including any such transactions for the Master Portfolio), and any fee revenue from any investments by the Master Portfolio in other funds for which BGFA provides advisory services and/or BGI provides administration services. Based on this review, the Board concluded that the profits to be realized by BGFA and its affiliates under the Advisory Contract and from other relationships between the Master Portfolio and BGFA and/or its affiliates, if any, were within the range the Board considered reasonable and appropriate.
Economies of Scale
In connection with its review of BGFA’s profitability analysis, the Board received information regarding economies of scale or other efficiencies that may result from increases in the Master Portfolio’s asset levels. The Board noted that the Advisory Contract does not provide any breakpoints in the investment advisory fee rate as a result of any increases in the asset levels of the Master Portfolio. However, the Board noted that the investment advisory fee rate for the Master Portfolio had been set initially at the lower end of the marketplace so as to afford the Master Portfolio’s interestholders the opportunity to share in anticipated economies of scale from inception. The Board also noted the difficulty of considering the potential for economies of scale based on advisory services independently and separately from any potential for economies of scale based on other services provided by BGFA and its affiliates. Based on the profitability analysis presented to the Board, which indicated that with respect to the Master Portfolio, BGFA and its affiliates are generally providing services at a loss, with the overall MIP complex posting a profit to BGFA and its affiliates for the year, the Board discussed the potential for future economies of scale as the asset levels of the Master Portfolio increase. In light of this analysis and the relatively low investment advisory fee rate for the Master Portfolio, the Board determined that whether further economies of scale may be realized by the Master Portfolio or reflected in fee levels was not a significant factor at this juncture in its consideration of whether to approve the Advisory Contract.
Fees and Services Provided for Other Comparable Funds/Accounts Managed by BGFA and its Affiliates
The Board considered the Master Portfolio’s annual investment advisory fee rate under the Advisory Contract in comparison to the investment advisory/management fee rates for other funds/accounts with substantially similar investment objectives and strategies for which BGFA (or its affiliate BGI) provides investment advisory/management services, including other funds registered under the 1940 Act, collective funds and separate accounts (together, the “Other Accounts”). The Board noted that BGFA had provided information distinguishing the level of services provided to the Other Accounts from the level of services provided to the Master Portfolio. In the context of the comparative fee analysis, the Board compared the nature and extent of services provided to the Master Portfolio in comparison with the nature and extent of services provided to the Other Accounts, including, among other things, the level of complexity in managing the Master Portfolio and the Other Accounts under differing regulatory requirements and client guidelines.
The Board noted that the investment advisory fee rate under the Advisory Contract for the Master Portfolio was generally within the ranges of the investment advisory/management fee rates for the Other Accounts. The Board further noted that any differences between the investment advisory fee rate for the Master Portfolio and the investment advisory/management fee rates for the Other Accounts appeared to be attributable to, among other things, the type and level of services provided and/or the asset levels of the Other Accounts. Based on this review, the Board determined that the investment advisory fee rate under the Advisory Contract does not constitute fees that are so disproportionately large as to bear no reasonable relationship to the services rendered and that could not have been the product of arm’s-length bargaining, and concluded that the investment advisory fee rate under the Advisory Contract is fair and reasonable.

Board Review and Approval of Investment Advisory Contract (Unaudited), Continued
Other Benefits to BGFA and/or its Affiliates
The Board reviewed any ancillary revenue received by BGFA and/or its affiliates in connection with the services provided to MIP and the Master Portfolio by BGFA, such as any payment of revenue to BGI, MIP’s securities lending agent, for loaning any portfolio securities, payment of administration fees to BGI, MIP’s administrator, and payment of advisory fees and/or administration fees to BGFA and BGI in connection with any investments by the Master Portfolio in other funds for which BGFA provides investment advisory services and/or BGI provides administration services, as well as the associated voluntary waivers by BGFA and/or its affiliates of these fees, if any. The Board noted that BGFA does not use soft dollars or consider the value of research or other services that may be provided to BGFA (including its affiliates) in selecting brokers for portfolio transactions for the Master Portfolio. The Board further noted that any portfolio transactions placed through a BGFA affiliate are reported to the Board pursuant to Rule 17e-1 under the 1940 Act. The Board concluded that any ancillary benefits would not be disadvantageous to the Master Portfolio’s interestholders.
Based on this analysis, the Board determined that the Advisory Contract, including the investment advisory fee rate thereunder, is fair and reasonable in light of all relevant circumstances and concluded that it is in the best interest of the Master Portfolio and its interestholders to approve the Advisory Contract for the coming year.
