NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - SEPTEMBER 30, 2007 (UNAUDITED)

1. ORGANIZATION

Hatteras Master Fund, L.P. (the "Master Fund") was organized as a limited
partnership under the laws of the State of Delaware on October 29, 2004.
The Master Fund is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
amended (the "1940 Act"), as a closed-end, non-diversified management
investment company. The Master Fund is managed by Hatteras Investment
Partners, LLC (the "Investment Manager"), a Delaware limited liability
company registered as an investment adviser under the Investment Advisers
Act of 1940, as amended. The objective of the Master Fund is to generate
consistent long-term appreciation and returns across all market cycles. To
achieve its objective, the Master Fund will provide its limited partners
(each, a "Limited Partner" and together, the "Limited Partners") with
access to a broad range of investment strategies and asset categories,
trading advisors ("Advisors") and overall asset allocation services
typically available on a collective basis to larger institutions.
Generally, the Investment Manager intends to select Advisors that
collectively employ widely diversified investment strategies and engage in
such techniques as opportunistic equity, enhanced fixed income, absolute
return, private equity, real estate and energy/natural resources. However,
the Investment Manager may also retain Advisors who utilize other
strategies. The Master Fund invests with each Advisor either by becoming a
participant in an investment vehicle operated by the Advisor (an
"Underlying Fund") or by placing assets in an account directly managed by
the Advisor. The Master Fund commenced operations on January 1, 2005. Prior
to January 1, 2005, the Master Fund engaged in no transactions other than
those related to organizational matters and the sale of a $100,000 interest
to Hatteras Diversified Strategies Fund, LP.

Hatteras Investment Management LLC, a Delaware limited liability company,
serves as the General Partner of the Master Fund (the "General Partner").
The General Partner has initially appointed a Board of Directors (the
"Board") and, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, has
irrevocably delegated to the Board its rights and powers to monitor and
oversee the business affairs of the Master Fund, including the complete and
exclusive authority to oversee and establish policies regarding the
management, conduct and operation of the Master Fund's business.

On January 3, 2005, the Master Fund received capital contributions totaling
$116,269,458, including contributions in the form of transfers-in-kind from
Hatteras Diversified Strategies Fund, LP and Hatteras Diversified
Strategies Offshore Fund, Ltd. for $72,386,769 and $16,620,182,
respectively. In addition, the Hatteras Diversified Strategies Offshore
Fund, Ltd. transferred receivables in the amount of $17,242,388 and

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The
following is a summary of significant accounting and reporting policies
used in preparing the financial statement.

HATTERAS MASTER FUND, L.P.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - SEPTEMBER 30, 2007 (UNAUDITED) (CONTINUED)

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

A. INVESTMENT VALUATION - INVESTMENTS IN UNDERLYING FUNDS

The Master Fund will value interests in the Underlying Funds at fair value,
which ordinarily will be the value determined by their respective
investment managers, in accordance with procedures established by the
Board. Investments in Underlying Funds are subject to the terms of the
Underlying Funds' offering documents. Valuations of the Underlying Funds
may be subject to estimates and are net of management and performance
incentive fees or allocations payable to the Underlying Funds' as required
by the Underlying Funds' offering documents. If the Investment Manager
determines that the most recent value reported by the Underlying Fund does
not represent fair value or if the Underlying Fund fails to report a value
to the Master Fund, a fair value determination is made under procedures
established by and under the general supervision of the Board. Because of
the inherent uncertainty in valuation, the estimated values may differ from
the values that would have been used had a ready market for the securities
existed, and the differences could be material.

B. INVESTMENT INCOME

Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis. Dividend income is
recorded on the ex-dividend date, except that certain dividends from
private equity investments are recorded as soon as the information is
available to the Master Fund. The Underlying Funds generally do not make
regular cash distributions of income and gains and so are generally
considered non-income producing securities, however the Master Fund owns
securities that are income producing and disburse regular cash
distributions.

C. FUND EXPENSES

The Master Fund will bear all expenses incurred in the business of the
Master Fund, including, but not limited to, the following: all costs and
expenses related to portfolio transactions and positions for the Master
Fund's account; legal fees; accounting and auditing fees; costs of
insurance; registration expenses; certain offering and organization costs;
and expenses of meetings of the Board.

D. INCOME TAXES

The Master Fund is treated as a partnership for federal income tax purposes
and therefore not subject to federal income tax. For income tax purposes,
the individual partners will be taxed upon their distributive share of each
item of the Master Fund's income, gain, loss, deductions and credits.

HATTERAS MASTER FUND, L.P.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - SEPTEMBER 30, 2007 (UNAUDITED) (CONTINUED)

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

E. CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

Cash and cash equivalents includes amounts held in interest bearing demand
deposit accounts. At September 30, 2007, the Master Fund held $830,438 in
interest bearing demand deposit accounts. Such cash, at times, may exceed
federally insured limits. The Master Fund has not experienced any losses in
such accounts and does not believe it is exposed to any significant credit
risk on such bank deposits.

F. USE OF ESTIMATES

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires the
Master Fund to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements
and the reported amounts of income and expense during the reporting period.
Actual results could differ from these estimates.

3. ALLOCATION OF PARTNERS' CAPITAL

Net profits or net losses of the Master Fund for each Allocation Period (as
defined below) will be allocated among and credited to or debited against
the capital accounts of the Limited Partners. Allocation Periods begin on
the day after the last day of the preceding Allocation Period and end at
the close of business on (1) the last day of each month, (2) the last day
of each taxable year; (3) the day preceding each day on which interests are
purchased, (4) the day on which interests are repurchased, or (5) the day
on which any amount is credited to or debited from the capital account of
any Limited Partner other than an amount to be credited to or debited from
the capital accounts of all Limited Partners in accordance with their
respective investment percentages.

4. MANAGEMENT FEE, RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS AND OTHER

The Investment Manager is responsible for providing day-to-day investment
management services to the Master Fund, subject to the ultimate supervision
of and subject to any policies established by the Board, pursuant to the
terms of an investment management agreement with the Master Fund (the
"Investment Management Agreement"). Under the Investment Management
Agreement, the Investment Manager is responsible for developing,
implementing and supervising the Master Fund's investment program.

In consideration for such services, the Master Fund pays the Investment
Manager a monthly management fee equal to 1/12th of 1.00% (1.00% on an
annualized basis) of the aggregate value of its partners' capital
determined as of the last day of the month (before repurchase of
interests).

HATTERAS MASTER FUND, L.P.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - SEPTEMBER 30, 2007 (UNAUDITED) (CONTINUED)

4. MANAGEMENT FEE, RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS AND OTHER (CONTINUED)

Each member of the Board who is not an "interested person" of the Master
Fund (the "Independent Board"), as defined by the 1940 Act, receives an
annual retainer of $15,000. All Board members are reimbursed by the Master
Fund for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by them in
performing their duties.

UMB Bank, n.a. serves as custodian of the Master Fund's assets and provides
custodial services for the Master Fund. UMB Fund Services, Inc. serves as
administrator and accounting agent to the Master Fund and provides certain
accounting, record keeping and investor related services. The Master Fund
pays a monthly fee to the administrator based upon average partners'
capital, subject to certain minimums.

5. INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS

Total purchases of Underlying Funds for the period ended September 30, 2007
amounted to $259,482,116. Total proceeds from redemptions of Underlying
Funds for the period ended September 30, 2007 amounted to $17,496,226. The
cost of investments in Underlying Funds for federal income tax purposes is
adjusted for items of taxable income allocated to the Master Fund from the
Underlying Funds.

6. RISK FACTORS

An investment in the Master Fund involves significant risks that should be
carefully considered prior to investing and should only be considered by
persons financially able to maintain their investment and who can afford a
loss of a substantial part or all of such investment. The Master Fund
intends to invest substantially all of its available capital in securities
of private investment companies. These investments will generally be
restricted securities that are subject to substantial holding periods or
are not traded in public markets at all, so that the Master Fund may not be
able to resell some of its securities holdings for extended periods, which
may be several years. Investments in the Underlying Funds may be restricted
from early redemptions or subject to fees for early redemptions as part of
contractual obligations agreed to by the Advisor on behalf of the Master
Fund. Underlying Funds generally require the Advisor to provide advanced
notice of its intent to redeem the Master Fund's total or partial interest
and may delay or deny a redemption request depending on the Underlying
Funds' governing agreements. No guarantee or representation is made that
the investment objective will be met.

HATTERAS MASTER FUND, L.P.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - SEPTEMBER 30, 2007 (UNAUDITED) (CONTINUED)

7. LINE OF CREDIT

On May 1, 2006, the Master Fund entered into a $20,000,000 unsecured,
uncommitted revolving loan facility ("Facility"), for the purpose to
finance short timing differences between the redemption of investments or
receipt of partnership capital and the redemption of partnership capital
accounts; the investment in new managers; or as general working capital.
The facility was increased for a ninety day period on October 1, 2007 to
$65,000,000 and will be reduced to $30,000,000 on November 26, 2007. A fee
of 37.5 basis points per annum is payable quarterly in arrears on the
unused portion of the Facility. Borrowings are charged an interest rate at
a base rate less 75 basis points. The base rate is the greater of a) the
prime commercial rate as announced from time to time, or b) the Federal
Funds rate plus 1/2 of 1%, calculated on a 360-day basis and payable
monthly in arrears. At September 30, 2007 the Master Fund had $20,000,000
in borrowings outstanding under the Facility and $19,430 in fees and
interest payable. The average interest rate, the average daily balance, and
the maximum balance outstanding for borrowings under the Facility for the
period ended September 30, 2007 was 7.50%, $677,596, and $20,000,000,
respectively.

8. REPURCHASE OF PARTNERS' INTERESTS

The Board may, from time to time and in its sole discretion, cause the
Master Fund to repurchase interests from Limited Partners pursuant to
written tenders by Limited Partners at such times and on such terms and
conditions as established by the Board. In determining whether the Master
Fund should offer to repurchase interests, the Board will consider the
recommendation of the Investment Manager. On March 31, 2006, the Investment
Manager recommended to the Board that the Master Fund offer to repurchase
interests from Limited Partners on a quarterly basis as of March 31, June
30, September 30 and December 31 of each year. The Master Fund does not
intend to distribute to the partners any of the Master Fund's income, but
generally expects to reinvest substantially all income and gains allocable
to the partners. A partner may, therefore, be allocated taxable income and
gains and not receive any cash distribution.

9. INDEMNIFICATION

In the normal course of business, the Master Fund enters into contracts
that provide general indemnifications. The Master Fund's maximum exposure
under these agreements is dependent on future claims that may be made
against the Master Fund, and therefore cannot be established; however,
based on experience, the risk of loss from such claims is considered
remote.

10. COMMITMENTS

As of September 30, 2007, the Master Fund had outstanding investment
commitments to Underlying Funds totaling $ 109,958,424.

11. FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS

The financial highlights are intended to help you understand the Master
Fund's financial performance for the past period. The total returns in the
table represent the rate that a typical Limited Partner would be expected
to have earned or lost on an investment in the Master Fund. The ratios and
total return amounts are calculated based on the Limited Partner group
taken as a whole. An individual Limited Partner's results may vary from
those shown below due to the timing of capital transactions.

The ratios are calculated by dividing total dollars of net investment
income or expenses, as applicable, by the average of total monthly limited
partners' capital. The ratios do not reflect the Master Fund's
proportionate share of income and expenses from Underlying Funds.

Total return amounts are calculated by geometrically linking returns based
on the change in value during each accounting period. The total return
amounts have not been annualized for the periods less than a year.

12. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Interpretation No. 48, "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes - an
Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109" (the "Interpretation"). The
Interpretation establishes for all entities, including pass-through
entities such as the Master Fund, a minimum threshold for financial
statements recognition of the benefit of positions taken in filing tax
returns (including whether an entity is taxable in a particular
jurisdiction), and required certain expanded tax disclosures. The
Interpretation is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15,
2006 and is required to be implemented no later than September 30, 2007.
Management has recently begun to evaluate the application of the
Interpretation to the Master Fund, and is not in a position at this time to
estimate the significance of its impact, if any, on the Master Fund's
financial statements.

In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 157, "Fair Value Measurements," (the "Statement"). The
Statement defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair
value in generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), and expands
disclosures about fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between (1)
market participant assumptions developed based on market data obtained from
sources independent of the reporting entity (observable inputs). The
Statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years
beginning after November 15, 2007, and is to be applied prospectively as of
the beginning of the fiscal year in which this Statement is initially
applied. Management has recently begun to evaluate the application of the
Statement to the Master Fund, and is not in a position at this time to
evaluate the significance of its impact, if any, on the Master Fund's
financial statements.

13. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Effective October 1, 2007 and November 1, 2007, there were additional
capital contributions of $40,906,226 and $52,066,408 respectively.
Effective October 1, 2007 there were redemptions of $6,650,000. There were
additional contributions effective as of October 1, 2007 of $89,738,623
resulting from the Agreement and Plan of Reorganization described in the
note below.

Effective October 1, 2007 according to a reorganization plan (the "Master
Fund Agreement") approved by the Board and the Topiary Fund Board by and
between the Master Fund and Topiary Master Fund For Benefit Plan Investors
(BPI) LLC (the "Topiary Master Fund"), the Topiary Master Fund transferred
to the Master fund substantially all of the Topiary Master Fund's assets
and liabilities in exchange for limited partnership interests in the Master
Fund.

Effective October 1, 2007 According to The Agreement and Plan of
Reorganization (the "TEI Agreement" and, together with the Master Fund
Agreement, the "Agreements") by and between the Hatteras Multi-Strategy TEI
Fund, L.P. (the "TEI Fund" and, together with the Master Fund, the
"Hatteras Funds")) and Topiary Benefit Plan Investor Fund LLC (the "Topiary

OTHER INFORMATION (UNAUDITED)

ANNUAL RENEWAL OF INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT

At a meeting of the Board of the Master Fund held on February 28, 2007, by
a unanimous vote, the Board of the Master Fund, including a majority of the
Directors who are not "interested persons" within the meaning of Section
2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act, approved the continuation of the Investment
Management Agreement (the "Agreement").

In advance of the meeting, the Independent Directors requested and received
extensive materials from the Investment Manager to assist them in
considering the renewal of the Agreement. The materials provided by the
Investment Manager contained information including detailed comparative
information relating to the performance, advisory fees and other expenses
of the Master Fund and the Limited Partners of the Master Fund managed by
the Investment Manager (collectively, the "Funds"). The materials also
included comparisons of the performance of each of the Master Fund's
investment sectors versus a relevant benchmark.

The Board engaged in a detailed discussion of the materials with management
of the Investment Manager. The Independent Directors then met separately
with independent counsel to the Independent Directors for a full review of
the materials. Following this session, the full Board reconvened and after
further discussion determined that the information presented provided a
sufficient basis upon which to approve the continuation of the Agreement.

DISCUSSION OF FACTORS CONSIDERED

The Board reviewed various materials relating to the Investment Manager,
including materials furnished by the Investment Manager. These materials
included information about the Investment Manager's personnel,
organizational structure, operations and financial condition. Management
discussed with the Independent Directors the Investment Manager's business
plans regarding ownership of the Manager, stability and retention of
management and improvements in the Funds' distribution and marketing.

The Board considered, among other things, various matters relating to the
organizational capabilities of the Investment Manager, including: (1) the
nature and stability of the ownership of the Investment Manager; (2) the
nature of the Investment Manager's portfolio management experience and
resources, including the experience of relevant personnel; and (3) the
Investment Manager's resources, practices and procedures to address
regulatory compliance matters.

The Board concluded that the Investment Manager has sufficient resources to
fulfill effectively the Investment Manager's duties under the Agreement.

The Board also considered other information, including: (1) the terms of
the Agreement; (2) the standard of care applicable to the Investment
Manager under the Agreement; (3) information regarding the performance of
and fees paid by certain similar private funds managed by the Investment
Manager; (4) information compiled by the Investment Manager intended to
gauge the

HATTERAS MASTER FUND, L.P.

OTHER INFORMATION (UNAUDITED) (CONCLUDED)

ANNUAL RENEWAL OF INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT (CONTINUED)

behavior of the Investment Manager's portfolio management strategy during
periods of historical or hypothetical market stress; (5) the Funds'
investment performance and expense ratios and the investment performance
and expense ratios of other investment companies with similar investment
styles to the Funds; and (6) the structure of, and the method used to
determine, the compensation of portfolio managers.

The Board gave consideration to the fees payable under the Agreement,
including: (1) the fees to be paid to the Investment Manager and the
Investment Manager's anticipated expenses in providing its services, and
the fact that certain affiliates of the Investment Manager provide other
services to the Funds and receive payment for these services; and (2) a
comparison of the fees payable under the Agreement to fees paid under
investment advisory agreements to investment advisers serving other
investment companies with similar investment programs to the Master Fund,
which assisted the Board in evaluating the reasonableness of the fees to be
paid to the Investment Manager.

The Board also considered possible economies of scale that might be
recognized in the future at different asset levels. In this regard the
Board considered the amount of assets in the Master Fund; the placement
agent agreements currently in force to increase the Funds' penetration in
various distribution channels; the information provided by the Investment
Manager relating to its estimated costs; and information comparing the fee
rate to be charged by the Investment Manager (which does not include fee
breakpoints) with fee rates charged by other unaffiliated investment
managers to their clients. The Board considered all factors and no one
factor alone was deemed dispositive.
