Shareholder Letter
Dear Shareholder:
Normally I use this forum to discuss the Reich & Tang funds, how they fared through predictably unpredictable global events, and ultimately how we positioned them to stay ahead of the markets and deliver shareholder value as we have done for more than forty years. I will deviate from that format this time around and address what many of you already know.
Reich & Tang announced on March 12, 2015, that it has made the strategic decision to liquidate its money market mutual funds and focus on growing its leading FDIC insured sweep programs offered through banks, brokerages, trusts, and public investment entities. Given the ongoing regulatory changes that are being added to the already challenging landscape for money funds, the ability for mid-tier money fund sponsor firms to thrive has become significantly diminished. It has been our promise and responsibility to always put our shareholders’ interests first, and the decision to liquidate and develop a clear transition plan ensures that we live up to that promise. On April 17, 2015, Reich & Tang entered into a transition agreement with Federated Investors, Inc., one of the nation’s largest investment managers, to establish a framework to accomplish this goal, which provides us with the peace of mind that our shareholders will have the option to move forward with a premier money market fund provider. We expect the liquidation and transition to take place through July 2015.
I understand you may have questions throughout the transition period. Please contact your financial representative or let us know how we can help you.
Although I deviated from the traditional format of this letter to shareholders, I will keep true to the most important aspect of it, which is giving my sincere thanks to a loyal shareholder base. The trust you have placed in us over the years is immensely appreciated. As we continue growing our business through our FDIC insured programs, it is my sincere hope that we may once again service your cash management needs in the future.
Sincerely,

Michael P. Lydon
President

Expense Chart For The Six Months Ended March 31, 2015 (Unaudited)
As a shareholder of the Portfolio, you incur the following ongoing costs: management fees and other Portfolio expenses. You may also incur distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Portfolio and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period October 1, 2014 through March 31, 2015.
Actual Expenses
The first line of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During the Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The second line of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Portfolio’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Portfolio’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Portfolio and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs such as sales charges (loads), redemption fees, or exchange fees that you may incur in other mutual funds. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds.

* | Expenses are equal to the Class’ annualized expense ratio (for the six-month period), multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 182/365 to reflect the one-half year period. Expenses are based on the most recent fiscal half year; therefore, the expense ratio stated above my differ from the expense ratio stated in the financial highlights, which is based on one-year data. The Class’ total return would have been lower had certain expenses not been waived during the period. |

Notes to the Financial Statements
1. Summary of Accounting Policies
Daily Income Fund (the “Fund”) is a diversified, open-end management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”). The Fund comprises four managed portfolios of money market instruments: the Money Market Portfolio, the U.S. Treasury Portfolio, the U.S. Government Portfolio and the Municipal Portfolio (each referred to as a “Portfolio”). The investment objective of the Money Market, U.S. Treasury and U.S. Government Portfolios is to seek as high a level of current income to the extent consistent with the preservation of capital and the maintenance of liquidity. The investment objective of the Municipal Portfolio is to seek as high a level of tax- exempt current income to the extent consistent with the preservation of capital and the maintenance of liquidity. There can be no assurance that the Portfolios will achieve their objectives. The Fund has five core classes of stock authorized: Institutional, Institutional Service, Investor, Investor Service (formerly Short Term Income) and Retail shares. In addition to the core classes, the Money Market Portfolio includes the Advantage, Xpress, Fiduciary and Investor Select shares, the U.S. Government Portfolio includes the Advantage, Fiduciary and Investor Select shares and Municipal Portfolio includes the Advantage shares.

On March 12, 2015, the Board of Trustees (the “Board”) of the Fund approved plans to liquidate, dissolve and terminate the legal existence of each Portfolio. In connection with the liquidation of the Portfolios, effective May 1, 2015, each Portfolio ceased sales of portfolio shares to new investors. Each Portfolio will permit current investors to continue purchasing new shares.
Each Portfolio is expected to be closed and liquidated on or about July 27, 2015 (the “Liquidation Date”). The Board has directed Reich & Tang Asset Management, LLC (the “Manager”), to manage the Portfolios conservatively in anticipation of liquidation and with the goal of returning $1.00 per share to each investor in a Portfolio. Accordingly, each Portfolio’s yield and performance may be reduced prior to liquidation. Nevertheless, there can be no assurance that each Portfolio’s value on liquidation will be $1.00 per share.
Effective March 12, 2015, the Manager has agreed to waive fees to the extent required to maintain a minimum yield of 0.01%, 0.005%, 0.01% and 0.01% for the Money Market Portfolio, U.S. Treasury Portfolio, U.S. Government Portfolio and Municipal Portfolio, respectively, until the liquidation. The Manager will pay all of the costs related to the liquidation. NGAM and the Manager will maintain at least a $27.5 million, $2 million, $3 million and $7.5 million investment in the Money Market Portfolio, U.S. Treasury Portfolio, U.S. Government Portfolio and Municipal Portfolio, respectively, until all non-affiliated shareholders have received their liquidation proceeds.
The Fund is an investment company and, accordingly, follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 – Investment Companies, which is part of U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements:
VALUATION OF SECURITIES
Investments are recorded on the basis of amortized cost, which approximates fair value, as permitted by Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act. Under this method, a portfolio instrument is valued at cost and any discount or premium is amortized on a constant basis to the maturity of the instrument. The maturity of variable rate demand instruments is deemed to be the longer of the period required before the Fund is entitled to receive payment of the principal amount or the period remaining until the next interest rate adjustment.
SECURITIES TRANSACTIONS AND INVESTMENT INCOME
Securities transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Interest income, adjusted for accretion of discount and amortization of premium, is recorded on the accrual basis from settlement date. Realized gains and losses on sales are computed on the basis of specific identification of the securities sold.
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS
All Portfolios may enter into repurchase agreements. Eligible securities for collateral are securities consistent with the Portfolio’s investment objectives and may consist of U.S. Government Securities and/or U.S. Government Sponsored Agency Securities. In connection with transactions in repurchase agreements, it is the Portfolio’s policy that its custodian take possession of the underlying collateral securities, the fair value of which exceeds the principal amount of the repurchase transaction, including accrued interest, at all times. Under these arrangements, the Portfolios are permitted to deliver or re-pledge these securities. If the seller of a repurchase agreement fails to repurchase the security in accordance with the terms of the agreement, the Portfolios might incur expenses in enforcing their rights and could experience losses, including a decline in the value of the collateral and loss of income.

Daily Income Fund
Notes to the Financial Statements (Continued)
1. Summary of Accounting Policies (Continued)
FEDERAL INCOME TAXES
It is the policy of each Portfolio to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute all of its tax exempt and taxable (if any) income to its shareholders. As such, the Portfolios will not be subject to federal income taxes on otherwise taxable income (including net realized capital gain) that is distributed to shareholders. Therefore, no provision for federal income tax is required in the financial statements. The Portfolios recognize interest and penalties, if any, as income tax expense in the Statement of Operations.
In addition, GAAP requires management of the Fund to analyze all open tax years, fiscal years 2012-2015, as defined by IRS statute of limitations for all major jurisdictions, including federal tax authorities and certain state tax authorities. As of and during the year ended March 31, 2015, the Portfolios did not have liabilities for any uncertain tax positions or unrecognized tax benefits. The Fund has no examination in progress and is not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total tax amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months.
DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS
Dividends from net investment income (excluding long-term capital gains and losses, if any, and amortization of market discount on tax exempt securities) are declared daily and paid monthly. Net realized capital gains, if any, are distributed at least annually and in no event later than 60 days after the end of the Fund’s fiscal year.
ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP 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 increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
REPRESENTATIONS AND INDEMNIFICATIONS
In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties which provide 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 that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote.
ALLOCATION OF INCOME AND EXPENSES
Each Portfolio may allocate among its classes and to the extent allowable, to specific classes, certain expenses, including shareholder servicing fees, distribution fees, transfer agent fees, government registration fees, certain printing and postage costs, and administrative and legal expenses. For the year ended March 31, 2015, class specific expenses of each Portfolio were limited to shareholder servicing fees, distribution fees and transfer agent expenses. Income, expenses (other than expenses attributable to a specific class), and realized and unrealized gains or losses on investments are allocated to each class of shares based on its relative net assets. In all other respects, all share classes represent the same interest in the income and assets of each Portfolio.
RISKS
Investments in obligations issued by agencies and instrumentalities of the U.S. Government may vary in the level of support they receive from the government. The government may choose not to provide financial support to government sponsored agencies or instrumentalities if it is not legally obligated to do so. In this case, if the issuer defaulted, the underlying Portfolio holding securities of such issuer might not be able to recover its investment from the U.S. Government.
The effect on performance from investing in securities issued or guaranteed by companies in the banking and financial services industries will depend to a greater extent on the overall condition of those industries. Financial services companies are highly dependent on the supply of short-term financing. The value of securities of issuers in the banking and financial services industry can be sensitive to changes in government regulation and interest rates and to economic downturns in the United States and abroad.
The value of, payment of interest on, repayment of principal for and the ability to sell a municipal security may be affected by constitutional amendments, legislative enactments, executive orders, administrative regulations, voter initiatives and the economics of the regions in which the issuers are located.
Since many municipal securities are issued to finance similar projects, especially those relating to education, housing, health care, transportation and utilities, conditions in those sectors can affect the overall municipal securities market and a Portfolio’s investment in municipal securities.
There is some risk that a portion or all of the interest received from certain tax-free municipal securities could become taxable as a result of determinations by the Internal Revenue Service.
In a low interest rate environment, such as the environment that existed at March 31, 2015, the Manager and Reich & Tang Distributors, Inc. (the “Distributor”) have historically waived their fees to maintain a minimum non-negative yield for all classes of the Fund. The Manager and Distributor are under no contractual obligation to continue such waiver in the future.

Notes to the Financial Statements (Continued)
1. Summary of Accounting Policies (Continued)
Certain Portfolios may purchase interests in loans extended to a corporate borrower or to the U.S. Government and its agencies or instrumentalities. When purchasing loan participations, a Portfolio assumes the credit risk of the borrower, and may assume the credit risk associated with an interposed bank or other financial intermediary.
2. Investment Management Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates
Under the Investment Management Contract, each Portfolio pays an investment management fee to the Manager at the annual rate of 0.12% of the Portfolio’s average daily net assets.
Pursuant to an Administrative Services Contract, each Portfolio pays to the Manager an annual fee of 0.05% of the Portfolio’s average daily net assets.
Pursuant to a Sub-Accounting Agreement, Reich & Tang Services, Inc., (the Transfer Agent “TA”), an affiliate of the Manager, performs or sub-contracts or employs others to perform certain sub-accounting services for the Advantage and Xpress shareholders. For its services under the Sub-Accounting Agreement, the TA receives from the Portfolio a fee up to 0.10% per annum of the average daily net assets of the Advantage shares and Xpress shares.
The Fund and the Distributor, an affiliate of the Manager, have entered into a Shareholder Servicing Agreement and a Distribution Agreement. For its services under the Shareholder Servicing and Distribution Agreements, the Distributor receives from each Portfolio a fee, accrued daily and paid monthly, at an annual rate of each Class’s average daily net assets as follows:

The procedures have been designed to ensure that any purchase or sale of securities of the Portfolio from or to another fund or portfolio that is, or could be, considered an affiliate by virtue of having a common investment advisor (or affiliated investment advisors), common Trustees and/or common officers complies with Rule 17a-7 of the 1940 Act. Further, as defined under the procedures, each transaction is effected at the current market price.
For the year ended March 31, 2015, the Portfolios engaged in purchases and sales with affiliates, none of which resulted in any gain or loss, which amounted to:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

4. Compensating Balance Arrangement and Other Transactions
Pursuant to a Compensating Balance Agreement, the Portfolios are permitted to temporarily overdraft or leave balances in their accounts with The Bank of New York Mellon (the “Bank”). The Portfolios may, in the case of the Municipal Portfolio, leave funds or overdraft funds in the account so the Bank or the Portfolio can be compensated for use of funds based upon the agreed upon formula. Unless agreed otherwise, at the end of pre-determined three month periods, the Portfolio will be charged for average overdrafts or receive an earnings credit for average positive balances computed at the agreed upon rate on the last day of the period.
For the Money Market, U.S. Treasury and U.S. Government, the Bank or the Portfolios will be compensated by accumulating the daily overdraft charges and/or earnings credits throughout the month, respectively.
Earnings credit, if any, reduce the Fund’s safekeeping fees, but are separately disclosed as expense paid indirectly and custodian expenses, respectively, in the Statement of Operations.

Under the provisions of GAAP, fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date under current market conditions. GAAP establishes a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation methods giving the highest priority to readily available unadjusted prices in an active market for identical assets (Level 1) and the lowest priority to significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) generally when market prices are not readily available or are unreliable. Based on the valuation inputs, the securities or other investments are tiered into one of three levels. Changes in valuation methods may result in transfers in or out of an investment’s assigned level:
Level 1 – | prices are determined using quoted prices in an active market for identical assets. |
Level 2 – | prices are determined using other significant observable inputs. Observable inputs are inputs that the other market participants may use in pricing a security. These may include quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk and others. |
Level 3 – | prices are determined using significant unobservable inputs. In situations where quoted prices or observable inputs are unavailable (for example, when there is little or no market activity for an investment at the end of the period), unobservable inputs may be used. |

8. Additional Valuation Information (Continued)
| Unobservable inputs reflect the Fund’s own assumptions about the factors market participants would use in determining fair value of the securities or instruments and would be based on the best available information. |
The following is a summary of the tiered valuation input levels, as of the end of the reporting year, March 31, 2015. The level assigned to the securities valuations may not be an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with investing in those securities. Money market securities may be valued using amortized cost, in accordance with the 1940 Act. Generally, amortized cost approximates the current fair value of a security, but as the value is not obtained from a quoted price in an active market, such securities are reflected as a Level 2.

Board Approval of Investment Management Contract (Unaudited)
On March 12, 2015, the Board of Trustees approved the continuance of the Investment Management Contract. Specifically, with regard to the approval of the continuance of the Investment Management Contracts, the Board of Trustees (the “Trustees”) of the Daily Income Fund (the “Fund”) had considered the following factors:
| 1) | The nature, extent and quality of services provided by the Manager. |
The Trustees reviewed in detail the nature and extent of the services provided by the Manager under the terms of the Fund’s Investment Management Contracts and the quality of those services over the past year. The Trustees noted that the services include managing the investment and reinvestment of the Fund’s assets; the provision of reports to the Board regarding changes in portfolio holdings, important developments affecting the entities whose securities are included in the Fund’s portfolio and the money market industry and the economy in general; and the payment of compensation of all officers, trustees and employees of the Fund who are officers of the Manager or its affiliates. The Board also observed that the Manager provided various administrative services to the Fund pursuant to the terms of a separate Administrative Services Contracts and considered the nature, extent and quality of services provided under that agreement as well. The Trustees evaluated these factors based on their direct experience with the Manager and in consultation with counsel to the Independent Trustees. The Trustees concluded that the nature and extent of the services provided under the Investment Management Contracts were reasonable and appropriate in relation to the management fees, that the level of services provided by the Manager had not diminished over the past year and that the quality of services are expected to remain the same. The Trustees reviewed the personnel responsible for providing advisory services to the Fund and concluded, based on their experience and interaction with the Manager, that (i) the Manager was able to retain quality portfolio managers and other personnel and that it had made arrangements to keep key personnel; (ii) the Manager exhibited a high level of diligence and attention to detail in carrying out its advisory responsibilities under the Investment Management Contracts; (iii) the Manager was responsive to requests of the Trustees; and (iv) the Manager had kept the Trustees apprised of developments relating to the Fund and the industry in general. The Trustees also focused on the Manager’s reputation and long-standing relationship with the Fund and, in particular, the experience of the Manager in advising money market funds. The Trustees also noted the high quality of services provided by the Manager under the Administrative Services Contracts.
| 2) | The performance of the Fund and the Manager. |
The Trustees reviewed the investment performance of the Fund’s Money Market Portfolio, U.S. Treasury Portfolio, U.S. Government Portfolio and Municipal Portfolio (each, a “Portfolio” and together, the “Portfolios”), on an absolute basis, as compared to their iMoneyNet – Money Fund Analyzer fund peer group for the one-month and one-year, three-year, five-year and ten-year periods ended December 31, 2014 for the Money Market Portfolio and U.S. Treasury Portfolio and for the one-month and one-year, three-year and five-year periods ended December 31, 2014 for the U.S. Government Portfolio and Municipal Portfolio. The Trustees and their independent counsel reviewed the factors and methodology used by the Manager in the selection of each Portfolio’s peer group. The peer group categories included: funds with an investment policy similar to that of the Money Market Portfolio as characterized by iMoneyNet; funds with an investment policy similar to that of the U.S. Treasury Portfolio as characterized by iMoneyNet; funds with an investment policy similar to that of the U.S. Government Portfolio as characterized by iMoneyNet; and funds with an investment policy similar to that of the Municipal Portfolio as characterized by iMoneyNet. These peer groups are referred to collectively as the “Peer Groups.” The Manager advised the Board that it does not advise or sub-advise other types of accounts, such as institutional and pension accounts, with similar investment policies to the Portfolios. The Trustees used each Portfolio’s performance against their respective Peer Groups to provide objective comparative benchmarks against which they could assess each Portfolio’s performance. In reviewing each Portfolio’s performance, the Trustees noted that overall the net performance of the Portfolios against their Peer Groups was satisfactory. In particular, the Trustees noted that (i) the Money Market Portfolio’s performance (gross of fees) was at below its Peer Group median for the one-month and three-year periods, at its Peer Group median for the one-year and five-year periods, and above its Peer Group median for the ten-year period; (ii) the U.S. Treasury Portfolio’s performance (gross of fees) was below its Peer Group median for the one-month, one-year and ten-year periods and at its Peer Group median for the three-year and five-year periods; (iii) the U.S. Government Portfolio’s performance (gross of fees) was below its Peer Group median for the one-month and one-year periods and above its Peer Group median for the three-year and five-year periods; and (iv) the Municipal Portfolio’s performance (gross of fees) was at its Peer Group median for the one-month period and above the Peer Group median for the one-year, three-year and five-year periods. The Trustees discussed performance with the Manager and the importance of the Manager’s long-standing philosophy of managing the Fund’s Portfolios with a focus on principal protection as opposed to higher yields relative to peers, a philosophy noted as being especially relevant in the current market environment and in light of publicized credit quality issues experienced by money market funds across the industry.
In connection with its assessment of the performance of the Manager, the Trustees considered the Manager’s financial condition and whether it has the resources necessary to continue to carry out its obligations under the Investment Management Contracts. The Trustees took into account, in this regard, the payments made by the Manager from its own resources to securities brokers, banks and financial institutions or other industry professionals or organizations whose customers are shareholders of the Fund (“Participating Organizations”) in connection with distribution assistance and shareholder servicing provided by the Participating Organizations. The Trustees concluded that the Manager had the financial resources necessary to continue to perform its obligations under the Investment Management Contracts and to continue to provide the high quality services that it had provided to the Fund to date.
| 3) | The cost of the advisory services and the profits to the Manager and its affiliates from the relationship with the Fund. |
In connection with the Trustees’ consideration of the level of the management fees, the Trustees considered a number of factors. The Trustees compared the level of the management fees for the Portfolios against the advisory fees charged to the funds in their respective Peer Groups and each Portfolio’s combined management-administrative fees against fees covering both advisory and administrative services charged to the funds in their respective Peer Groups (noting that the Peer Groups for expense comparison purposes are the same as the Peer Groups for performance comparison purposes). The Trustees also considered comparative total fund expenses of each of the Portfolios and their respective Peer Groups.

Daily Income Fund
Board Approval of Investment Management Contract (Unaudited) (Continued)
The Trustees used this combined fee information and total expense data as a guide to help assess the reasonableness of each Portfolio’s management fee, although they acknowledged that it was difficult to make precise comparisons with other funds since the exact nature of services provided under the respective Peer Groups fund agreements is often not apparent. The Trustees also viewed the respective Peer Groups fee information as a whole as useful in assessing whether the Manager was providing services at a cost that was competitive with other, similar funds. In assessing this information, the Trustees considered both the comparative contract rates as well as the level of the management fees after waivers and/or reimbursements and concluded that they were reasonable. The Trustees noted that the total expense ratio for the Money Market Portfolio and Municipal Portfolio were higher than the peer group average and that the total expense ratios for the U.S. Treasury Portfolio and U.S. Government Portfolio were lower than the peer group average. The Trustees also noted that the Manager did not advise or sub-advise any other types of accounts, such as institutional or pension accounts, with similar investment policies to the Portfolios. The Trustees concluded that each Portfolio’s total expense ratio was reasonable.
The Trustees considered the profitability to the Manager and its affiliates arising out of their relationships with the Fund. In this regard the Trustees reviewed profitability data relating to the Manager and its affiliates for the year ended December 31, 2014. The Trustees also considered the Manager’s commitment to waive its advisory fees and reimburse expenses in order to maintain a specified yield floor. The Trustees considered revenues received by the Manager under the Investment Management Contracts and Administrative Services Contracts. In reviewing the Manager’s profitability reports, the Trustees and the Manager discussed the Manager’s associated costs and the impact of such costs on the Manager’s net profitability. The Trustees concluded that the profitability of the Fund to the Manager and its affiliates was not excessive.
| 4) | The extent to which economies of scale will be realized as the Fund grows and whether fee levels reflect those economies of scale. |
With respect to the Trustees’ consideration of economies of scale, the Trustees noted that the Fund’s current fee schedule does not contain breakpoints but that the Manager is currently waiving fees. The Trustees also reviewed the respective Peer Groups data and noted that certain Peer Groups funds were also waiving fees and had no advisory or administrative fee breakpoints.
In addition to the above factors, the Trustees acknowledged the importance of the affiliated distributor’s distribution networks, including its customer service and administration system with banks and bank customers. The Trustees also acknowledged the importance of the Fund’s transfer agency arrangements with Reich & Tang Services, Inc., an affiliate of the Manager, in the context of the overall compensation paid to the affiliate and the quality of the services provided.
Based on a consideration of all these factors in their totality, the Trustees, including all of the disinterested Trustees, determined that the Fund’s management fees were fair and reasonable with respect to the quality of services that the Manager provides and in light of the other factors described above that the Trustees deemed relevant. The Trustees based their decision on evaluations of all these factors as a whole and did not consider any one factor as all-important or controlling. The Independent Trustees were also assisted by the advice of independent counsel in making this determination.
