Q. WHY ARE U.S. TREASURY PORTFOLIO, MONEY MARKET PORTFOLIO, AND DAILY
TAX-EXEMPT MONEY FUND EACH PROPOSING TO ADOPT AN AMENDED MANAGEMENT
CONTRACT?
A. In conjunction with proposals to adopt new Distribution and Service
Plans for the Initial Classes of each fund and Class B of U.S. Treasury
Portfolio, amendments to each fund's management contract are proposed to
simplify the expense structure of each fund.  The amended management
contracts provide for a more straightforward fee structure, making the
expenses of each fund more transparent, and easier to understand.
Q. WHY ARE THE INITIAL CLASSES OF EACH FUND AND CLASS B OF U.S. TREASURY
PORTFOLIO PROPOSING THE ADOPTION OF NEW DISTRIBUTION AND SERVICE PLANS?
A. In conjunction with proposals to amend each fund's Management Contract,
the principal reason the new Distribution and Service Plans are being
proposed is to simplify the expense and compensation structure of each
fund.  The new Distribution and Service Plans provide for a more
straightforward fee structure, making the expenses of each fund more
transparent, and easier to understand.
Q. WHY ARE U.S. TREASURY PORTFOLIO AND MONEY MARKET  PORTFOLIO 
REORGANIZING FROM ONE DELAWARE BUSINESS TRUST  TO ANOTHER?
A. Each Fund is presently organized as a series of Daily Money Fund (DMF),
a Delaware business trust, which has six series of shares or funds.  The
Board of Trustees unanimously recommends reorganization of U.S. Treasury
Portfolio and Money Market Portfolio to separate series of Daily Tax-Exempt
Money Fund (the Trust) which will succeed to the business of each Fund. 
Moving the Funds from DMF to the Trust will consolidate and streamline
production and mailing of shareholder reports and legal documents.  The
proposed change will have no material effect on shareholders or management
of the fund.
Q. WITH RESPECT TO THE PROPOSAL REGARDING EACH FUND'S FUNDAMENTAL
INVESTMENT LIMITATION CONCERNING DIVERSIFICATION, WILL THIS AMENDMENT
AFFECT MY FUND'S INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE?
A. No.  The Board of Trustees believes that these proposals are in the best
interest of each fund's shareholders, and will not affect each fund's
investment philosophy.
Q. WHY ARE U.S. TREASURY PORTFOLIO AND MONEY MARKET PORTFOLIO PROPOSING TO
ELIMINATE EACH FUND'S FUNDAMENTAL INVESTMENT LIMITATION CONCERNING WRITING
OR PURCHASING PUT OR CALL OPTIONS FOR THE FUND?
A. The Board of Trustees believes that each fund's current limitation
unnecessarily restricts each fund from taking advantage of potential
investment opportunities and techniques that are consistent with each
fund's investment objective, and believes that this proposal is in the best
interest of each fund's shareholders.
Q. WHAT IS MEANT BY DOLLAR-BASED VOTING RIGHTS, AND WHY IS IT BEING
PROPOSED FOR DAILY TAX-EXEMPT MONEY FUND?
A. The proposed amendment would provide a more equitable distribution of
voting rights for certain votes than the one-share, one-vote system
currently in effect.  The voting power of each shareholder would be
measured by the value of the shareholder's dollar investment rather than
with the number of shares held.  Currently, since there are only money
market funds in the Trust, which are managed to maintain a stable $1.00
NAV, this proposed change will not affect the voting rights of fund
shareholders on votes requiring trust-wide participation.  Please see the
Proxy Statement for more detail.
Q. WHAT ABOUT THE OTHER PROPOSALS IN THIS PROXY?
A. The other proposals that require your vote have been unanimously
approved by each fund's Board of Trustees.  Proposals regarding the
election of a new Board of  Trustees and the ratification of  the selection
of Price Waterhouse LLP as independent accountants for Daily Tax-Exempt
Money Fund are explained clearly in the funds' Proxy Statement. If you have
any questions regarding these, or any of the aforementioned proposals,
please call Fidelity Client Services at 800-843-3001.
Q. HAS MY FUND'S BOARD OF TRUSTEES APPROVED THE PROPOSALS?
A. Yes.  The Board of Trustees of each fund has unanimously approved all of
the proposals, and recommends that you vote to approve each one.
Q. HOW DO I VOTE MY SHARES?
A. You can vote your shares by completing and signing the enclosed proxy
card(s), and mailing them in the enclosed postage paid envelope.  If you
need any assistance, or have any questions regarding the proposals or how
to vote your shares, please call Fidelity Client Services at 800-843-3001.
