The Pacific Horizon Family of Funds offers a variety of mutual funds with
different investment objectives to help you diversify your portfolio and meet
your investment goals. Some Funds offer greater growth potential, while others,
the money market funds, strive to maintain a stable net asset value but offer no
growth potential.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR SHAREHOLDER REPORT
As a mutual fund shareholder, you receive two financial reports a year that
contain important information about your investment. The financial statements
and financial highlights included in annual reports are audited by an
independent public accounting firm and cover the activity for the past fiscal
year. The independent public accountant provides an opinion letter in each
audited report. A semi-annual report is a six-month interim report that includes
financial statements that are generally not audited by an independent public
accounting firm.
This guide will help you extract the information from
the report.
The TABLE OF CONTENTS helps
you locate the information you
want.
The ECONOMIC REVIEW FROM THE
INVESTMENT ADVISER provides a
brief overview of the economy
and how it affects the
financial markets.
[GRAPHIC]
The INTERVIEW WITH YOUR
INVESTMENT MANAGER enables you
to gain insight into the Fund
investments and learn more
about the Fund manager's
strategies.
Because a picture or chart can
help clarify the text, the
investment manager may have
illustrated the most important
features of the Fund. The
illustrations may represent the portfolio composition,
the largest holdings or a simplification of the
investment manager's investment style.
[GRAPHIC]
In annual reports, mutual funds, which are not "money
market" funds, are required by the Securities and
Exchange Commission (SEC) to provide shareholders with
a comparison of a hypothetical $10,000 investment in
the Fund to a benchmark of the broader market. The
performance of the benchmark index depicts the
aggregate performance of investments similar to those
in the Fund for the same time period. While the
benchmark index provides a general representation of
the market, there are two
reasons
why
it should be used only as a
guide. First, the Fund, in its
prospectus, must clearly define
which investments can be made by
the Fund. The index does not [GRAPHIC]
necessarily have the same
limitations. Second, the index
does not reflect any expenses
that accompany a real investment,
such as
4
<PAGE> 7
sales charges, management fees, portfolio transaction costs or the cash reserves
required to provide daily liquidity. The performance of the Fund must show these
costs as well as any front-end or deferred sales charges.
The financial statements summarize and describe the Fund's financial
transactions. They are broken down into four different statements, which are
illustrated below:
The PORTFOLIO OF INVESTMENTS lists each investment holding in the Fund as of the
date of the report. Investments may be grouped by category (by industry or
security type, for example). The percentage of the Fund's net assets represented
by these groupings is also disclosed.

SECTOR (IF APPLICABLE)

The STATEMENT OF ASSETS AND LIABILITIES lists all the assets and liabilities of
the Fund as of the date of the statement. This is an individual fund's "balance
sheet." Also disclosed in this statement are the Fund's net asset value per
share and its maximum offering price per share as of the date of the statement.
The statement also lists the accounts that comprise the Fund's
net assets (capital stock, undistributed
income, etc.).

and losses and the dividends and distributions of the Fund. It also shows key
data and ratios (such as the total investment return for each period), the
portfolio turnover rate for Funds other than money market mutual funds, the
ratio of expenses to average net assets and the ratio of net investment income
to average net assets.

ECONOMIC REVIEW
FROM THE INVESTMENT ADVISER
The 12 months ended February 29, 1996, witnessed a year of surprising strength
in the financial markets. Stock prices rose sharply, with the Dow Jones
Industrial Average surging 38% and other stock market indices posting very
strong gains. The bond market also turned in healthy results, particularly in
the long-term sector, with the bellwether 30-year Treasury bond registering an
18.45% total return.
The stock and bond markets were propelled largely by the Federal Reserve Board's
apparent success at slowing the economy to a sustainable annual growth rate of
around 2% and, at the same time, keeping inflation under control.
FUNDAMENTAL ECONOMIC
STRENGTHS
This favorable combination of modest economic growth and a low-inflation
environment allowed long-term interest rates to decline through most of the
period, spurring gains for both stocks and bonds. In fact, with mounting
evidence of slower economic growth, the Federal Reserve began lowering
short-term rates last summer to help prevent the economy from slowing down too
much.
Meanwhile, corporate profits continued to grow at a solid clip. The major
factors driving earnings included productivity gains and rising exports. In
addition, the U.S. dollar generally was weak, so the overseas profits that many
American companies earned in foreign currencies became more valuable in dollar
terms.
ASSET ALLOCATION KEY
TO PERFORMANCE
For investors, the key investment decision during the period was asset
allocation. The best-performing stock market sectors included financial services
and technology (despite a weak fourth quarter) -- but many other groups also
delivered strong gains.
LOOKING AHEAD
We expect the market environment in 1996 to favor our approach, as investors
look for companies that can produce consistent earnings gains in an economy
growing at a relatively modest 2%-to-3% annual rate. Corporate profits should
continue to grow as companies continue to reap the benefits of productivity
gains made during the past decade. However, earnings aren't likely to rise as
quickly as they did last year.
The economy's pace probably will be slow enough to prevent a sharp rebound in
interest rates, which is good news for both stock and bond investors. But it's
also unlikely that rates will decline sharply from their current levels, which
are high relative to inflation. Thus, stock and bond investors might expect more
modest returns during the coming year than they received in 1995. Still, that
leaves plenty of room for respectable performance.

JAMES D. MILLER, CFA
Chief Investment Officer
Bank of America Illinois
Investment Advisors Division
Mr. Miller is a leading member of the investment management team for the Blue
Chip Fund.
GOAL:
The Pacific Horizon Blue Chip Fund seeks long-term capital appreciation.
INVESTMENTS:
The Fund invests primarily in a diversified group of "blue chip" common stocks,
which are included in either the Dow Jones Industrial Average or the Standard &
Poor's 500 Index.
APPROPRIATE FOR:
Investors who want to participate in the growth potential of some of America's
major companies. The Fund is a diversified equity product that can be used as
part of many investment strategies.
INCEPTION:
January 13, 1994
SIZE OF FUND AS OF
FEBRUARY 29, 1996:
Over $66 million
Q HOW DID YOU MANAGE THE FUND DURING THE RECENT PERIOD?
A We continued to manage the Fund in our very disciplined quantitative style
and concentrated heavily on risk management. We start by neutralizing most of
the divergent risk factors to the benchmark S&P 500. This includes sector and
size risk, among others. By this, we mean that the portfolio's holdings are
designed to mirror the sector allocations of the Standard & Poor's 500 Stock
Index. Likewise, the portfolio's average weighted size should approximate that
of the index.
The result is that our Fund is designed not to suffer or benefit any more than
the index when a particular sector performs well or badly. Likewise, the Fund is
designed not to decline more or less than the index when small- or
large-capitalization stocks have an especially good or bad year. Since we keep
risks in line with those in the benchmark, we attempt to add value through stock
selection.
For the 12 months ended February 29, 1996, the Fund performed more or less in
line with the index with a total return of 33.39% (without the sales charge),
compared to 34.60% for the S&P 500.+
Q HOW IS THE FUND DIFFERENT FROM AN INDEX FUND?
A As I said before, unlike an index fund, we attempt to add value through
individual security selection. Our goal is to buy the best stocks in each
sector -- by which we mean the stocks that add the most potential reward to our
portfolio for the least risk.
Q HOW DID YOU CHOOSE STOCKS DURING THE RECENT PERIOD?
A We looked at a number of different factors that can affect a stock's per-
8
<PAGE> 11
formance and weighted most heavily those having the most impact during the
period. Then we used that information to select stocks that we believed would
do well.
For example, during the past year one of the most important factors
determining stock prices included something we call "earnings certainty." We
found that people were buying shares of companies that had similar earnings
estimates from different analysts.
Likewise, investors liked stocks of companies that had experienced the biggest
increases in analysts' earnings estimates -- our "rising earnings expectations"
model. And we discovered that investors were looking for companies whose shares
were selling at a low multiple of earnings. Consequently, we purchased lower
P/E stocks that demonstrated a clearer, brighter future earnings potential.
Q WHAT ARE SOME STOCKS YOU BOUGHT BASED ON THOSE THREE FACTORS?
A A number of our picks were large, well-known companies such as Chrysler
(1.14% of net assets as of February 29, 1996) and Merck (1.56%), both of which
scored well based on all three factors. Pepsico (2.43%) was particularly
attractive as well, largely on the basis of rising earnings expectations and
earnings certainty.++
Q ARE YOU PLANNING ANY IMPORTANT STRATEGIC CHANGES FOR THE COMING PERIOD?
A No. As always, we will make no attempt to forecast the direction of stock
prices in general or specific market sectors. Instead, we will continue to keep
track of the factors that are most likely to affect the returns of specific
stocks. Then we will invest in stocks with the appropriate characteristics.

HOW PERFORMANCE COMPARES
The chart compares the Pacific Horizon Blue
Chip Fund to the S&P 500, which is an un-
managed index often used as a performance
benchmark for equity investments. The
hypothetical investment in the S&P 500 does
not
reflect any sales or management fees that would be incurred if an investor were
to actually purchase individual securities or mutual funds, while the
performance of the Fund reflects all expenses and management fees and the effect
of the maximum sales charge.
The Fund fared well compared to other growth funds. The average of growth funds
as tracked by Lipper Analytical Services, Inc. measures the performance of other
funds with investment objectives and policies similar to those of the Pacific
Horizon Blue Chip Fund. An initial $10,000 investment in the Fund made on

The adviser and administrator are voluntarily waiving advisory and
administrative fees for the Fund and administrative and advisory fees for the
Master Investment Trust, in which the Fund is wholly invested. The administrator
is also reimbursing expenses for the Fund. If the adviser and administrator had
not waived fees and reimbursed expenses, total return would have been lower.
This voluntary waiver of fees and reimbursement of expenses may be modified or
terminated at any time, which would reduce the Fund's performance.
Investment return and principal value are historical and will vary with market
conditions, so an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less
than their original cost.
Return figures for the Fund include change in share price, reinvestment of
dividends and capital gains distributions, if any, and the effect of the maximum
4.50% sales charge.

PORTFOLIO COMPOSITION
FUND QUALITY
A Strategy for Long-Term Capital
Appreciation
The Fund maintains a "quality" investment orientation by placing an
emphasis on the securities of well-known established companies. This "blue
chip" approach may be appropriate for investors seeking long-term growth of
capital. At least 80% of the Fund's assets are normally invested in blue chip
stocks. To meet the criteria set by the Fund's investment objectives, these
stocks must be components of the Dow Jones Industrial Average or the Standard &
Poor's 500 Index.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Fund adviser's research orientation seeks to identify individual
stocks, within the sector allocations mirroring those of the S&P 500, with the
greatest potential for long-term growth. The Fund's primary emphasis is on
stocks that, in the opinion of the Fund's adviser, have the greatest potential
of superior performance with the least amount of risk.

PACIFIC HORIZON BLUE CHIP FUND
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Notes to Financial Statements
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE 1 -- GENERAL
Pacific Horizon Funds, Inc. (the "Company"), a Maryland corporation, is
registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "Act"), as
an open-end management investment company. At February 29, 1996, the Company
operated as a series company comprising fifteen funds. The accompanying
financial statements and notes are those of the Pacific Horizon Blue Chip Fund
(the "Fund") only.
The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing
substantially all of its assets in the Blue Chip Portfolio of Master Investment
Trust, Series I (the "Portfolio"), an open-end management company that has the
same investment objective as that of the Fund. The value of the Fund's
investment in the Portfolio included in the accompanying Statement of Assets and
Liabilities reflects the Fund's proportionate beneficial interest in the net
assets of the Portfolio (24.3% at February 29, 1996). The financial statements
of the Portfolio, including its portfolio of investments are included elsewhere
within this report and should be read in conjunction with the Fund's financial
statements.
Concord Holding Corporation ("Concord") serves as the Fund's administrator
and Concord Financial Group, Inc. (the "Distributor"), a wholly owned subsidiary
of Concord, serves as the distributor of the Fund's shares. Effective March 29,
1995, Concord became a wholly owned subsidiary of The BISYS Group, Inc.
("BISYS").
NOTE 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 generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of
financial statements in accordance with generally accepted principles requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts
and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from
those estimates.
A) SECURITY VALUATIONS:
The valuation of securities of the Fund's investment in the Portfolio is
discussed in Note 2 of the Portfolio's financial statements.
B) INVESTMENT INCOME, EXPENSES AND REALIZED AND UNREALIZED GAINS AND LOSSES:
The Fund records its share of the investment income, expenses and realized
and unrealized gains and losses recorded by the Portfolio on a daily basis. The
investment income, expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses are
allocated daily to investors in the Portfolio based upon the value of their
investments in the Portfolio. Such investments are adjusted on a daily basis.
15
<PAGE> 18
C) DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS:
The Fund declares and pays dividends from net investment income, if any, at
least quarterly. Distributions of net realized gains, if any, will be paid at
least annually. However, to the extent that net realized gains of the Fund can
be offset by capital loss carryovers, such gains will not be distributed.
Dividends and distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
The amounts of dividends from net investment income and of distributions
from net realized gains are determined in accordance with federal income tax
regulations which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles.
These "book/tax" differences are either considered temporary or permanent in
nature. To the extent these differences are permanent in nature, such amounts
are reclassified within the composition of net assets based on their federal
tax-basis treatment; temporary differences do not require reclassification.
Dividends and distributions to shareholders which exceed net investment income
and net realized capital gains for financial reporting purposes but not for tax
purposes are reported as dividends in excess of net investment income or net
distributions in excess of net realized gains. To the extent they exceed net
investment income and net realized gains for tax purposes, they are reported as
distributions of capital.
D) FEDERAL INCOME TAXES:
It is the policy of the Fund to meet the requirements of the Internal
Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute
substantially all of its taxable income to shareholders. Therefore, no federal
income tax provision is required.
E) OTHER:
The Fund incurred certain costs in connection with its organization. Such
costs have been deferred and are being amortized on a straight line basis over
five years.
Expenses directly attributable to the Fund are charged directly to the Fund,
while Company expenses attributable to more than one Fund of the Company are
allocated among the respective funds.
NOTE 3 -- AGREEMENTS AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH
AFFILIATES
The Fund has an Administration Agreement with Concord and a Distribution
Agreement with the Distributor.
As Administrator, Concord assists in supervising the operations of the Fund.
For its services, Concord is entitled to a fee, which is accrued daily and
payable monthly, at an annual rate of 0.15%, of the Fund's average net assets.
For the year ended February 29, 1996, Concord agreed to waive its entire fee as
administrator.
For the same period, Concord reimbursed the Fund $150,472 in operating
expenses.
For the year ended February 29, 1996, the Distributor advised the Fund that
it retained $255,167 from commissions earned on sales of the Fund's shares. For
the same period, Bank of America and its affiliates advised the Fund that they
retained $1,875,240 from commissions earned on sales of the Fund's shares.
16
<PAGE> 19
The Fund has adopted a Shareholder Service Plan (the "Plan") under which the
Fund pays the Distributor for shareholder servicing expenses incurred in
connection with shares of the Fund. Under the Plan, payments by the Fund may not
exceed 0.25% (annualized) of the Fund's average daily net assets. For the year
ended February 29, 1996, the Distributor waived all of its shareholder service
fees due from the Fund. The Plan provides that if, in any month, the fees paid
to the Distributor are less than the costs incurred by the Distributor, the
excess costs will be included in future computations of the fee, provided that
any excess costs will not be carried forward beyond the end of the fiscal year
in which such excess costs were incurred.
Effective December 11, 1995, BISYS Fund Services, Inc., also a wholly owned
subsidiary, served the Fund as transfer agent and dividend disbursing agent. In
this capacity, BISYS Fund Services, Inc., earned $23,505 for the period from
December 11, 1995 through February 1996. Prior to December 11, 1995 an unrelated
party provided these services.
For the year ended February 29, 1996, the Fund incurred legal charges
totalling $47,260, which were earned by a law firm, a partner of which serves as
Secretary of the Company. Certain officers of the Company are "affiliated
persons" (as defined in the Act) of BISYS.
NOTE 4 -- DIRECTORS' COMPENSATION
Each director of the Company is entitled to an annual retainer of $25,000,
plus $1,000 for each day the director participates in all or part of a Board or
Committee meeting and the Chairman of each Committee receives an annual retainer
of $1,000 for services as Chairman of the Committee. In addition, the Company's
President is entitled to an annual salary of $20,000 for services as President.
The former president and chairman of the Company receives an additional $40,000
per year through February 28, 1997, in consideration of his years of service.
The Board has also established a retirement plan (the "Retirement Plan") for
the Directors. The Retirement Plan provides that each Director who dies or
resigns after five years of service as a director will be entitled to receive
ten annual payments each equal to the greater of: (i) 50% of the annual
Director's retainer that was payable during the year of that director's death or
resignation, or (ii) 50% of the annual Director's retainer then in effect for
Directors of the Company during the year of such payment. A Director who dies or
resigns after nine years of service as a director will be entitled to receive
ten annual payments equal to the greater of: (i) 100% of the annual Director's
retainer that was payable during the year of that Director's death or
resignation, or (ii) 100% of the annual Director's retainer then in effect for
Directors of the Fund during the year of such payment. In addition, the amount
payable each year to a Director who dies or resigns shall be increased by $1,000
for each year of service that the Director served as Chairman of the Board. Each
Director may receive any benefits payable under the Retirement Plan, at his or
her election, either in one lump sum payment or ten annual install-
17
<PAGE> 20
ments. A Director's years of service for the purpose of calculating the payments
described above shall be based upon service as a Director or Chairman after
February 28, 1994. Aggregate costs to the Fund pursuant to the Retirement Plan
amounted to $69, for the year ended February 29, 1996.
NOTE 5 -- CAPITAL SHARE TRANSACTIONS
At February 29, 1996, there were 200 billion shares of the Company's $0.001
par value capital stock authorized, of which 100 million shares were classified
as Class N Common Stock (Blue Chip Fund).
Transactions in shares of common stock of the Fund are summarized below (000

the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net
assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and the financial
highlights for each of the periods presented, in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles. These financial statements and financial
highlights (hereafter referred to as "financial statements") are the
responsibility of the Funds' management; our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our
audits of these financial statements in accordance with generally accepted
auditing standards which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain

evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our

MASTER INVESTMENT TRUST, SERIES I --
BLUE CHIP PORTFOLIO
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Notes to Financial Statements
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE 1 -- GENERAL
Master Investment Trust, Series I (the "Trust"), a Delaware business trust,
is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "Act"),
as an open-end management investment company. At February 29, 1996, the Trust
consisted of four portfolios. The accompanying financial statements and notes
are those of the Blue Chip Portfolio (the "Portfolio") only.
The investment objective of the Portfolio is long term capital appreciation
through investments in blue chip stocks.
Bank of America National Trust and Savings Association ("Bank of America"),
a wholly owned subsidiary of BankAmerica Corporation, serves as the Portfolio's
investment adviser. Concord Holding Corporation ("Concord") serves as the
Portfolio's administrator through BISYS Fund Services (Ireland) Ltd., a wholly
owned subsidiary of Concord. Effective March 29, 1995, Concord became a wholly
owned subsidiary of The BISYS Group, Inc. ("BISYS").
NOTE 2 -- SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by
the Portfolio in the preparation of its financial statements. The policies are
in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of
financial statements in accordance with generally accepted principles requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts
and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from
those estimates.
A) SECURITY VALUATIONS:
Portfolio securities for which market quotations are readily available
(other than debt securities with remaining maturities of 60 days or less) are
valued at the last reported sales price on the date of valuation or, if none is
available, at the mean between the current quoted bid and asked prices on the
date of valuation. Securities that are primarily traded on the NASDAQ national
securities market are valued at the last reported sales price on the date of
valuation or, if none is available, at the last quoted bid price on the date of
valuation. The Portfolio may use an independent pricing service, approved by the
Board of Trustees, to value certain of its securities. Such prices reflect
market values which may be established through the use of electronic data
processing techniques and matrix systems. Restricted securities and securities
for which market quotations are not readily available, if any, are valued at
fair value using methods approved by the Board of Trustees. Debt securities with
remaining maturities of 60 days or less are valued at amortized cost, which
approximates market value. The amortized cost
29
<PAGE> 32
method involves valuing a security at its cost on the date of purchase or, in
the case of securities purchased with more than 60 days until maturity, at their
market value each day until the 61st day prior to maturity, and thereafter
assuming a constant amortization to maturity of the difference between the
principal amount due at maturity and such valuation.
B) SECURITIES TRANSACTIONS AND INVESTMENT INCOME:
Securities transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Realized
gains and losses on securities transactions are determined on the identified
cost basis. Interest income, including accretion of discount and amortization of
premium, is accrued daily. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date.
C) EXPENSES:
Expenses directly attributable to the Portfolio are charged to the Portfolio
while Trust expenses attributable to more than one portfolio of the Trust and
general Trust expenses are allocated among the respective portfolios of the
Trust.
D) FEDERAL INCOME TAXES:
The Portfolio will be treated as a partnership for federal income tax
purposes. As such, each investor in the Portfolio will be taxed on its share of
the Portfolio's ordinary income and capital gains. It is intended that the
Portfolio will be managed in such a way that an investor will be able to satisfy
the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment
companies.
NOTE 3 -- AGREEMENTS AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
The Portfolio has an Investment Advisory Agreement with Bank of America and
an Administration Agreement with Concord.
As Adviser, Bank of America is responsible for managing the investment of
the assets of the Portfolio in conformity with the stated objectives and
policies of the Portfolio. For its services, Bank of America is entitled to a
fee, accrued daily and paid monthly, at an annual rate of 0.75% of the average
daily net assets of the Portfolio. For the year ended February 29, 1996, Bank of
America waived $1,164,328 in fees as Adviser of the Portfolio.
As Administrator, Concord assists in supervising the operations of the
Portfolio. For its services, Concord is entitled to a fee, accrued daily and
payable monthly, at an annual rate of 0.05% of the Portfolio's average daily net
assets. For the year ended February 29, 1996, Concord waived $77,922 in fees as
Administrator of the Portfolio.
For services provided to all four of the portfolios constituting the Trust,
each Trustee receives an annual fee of $1,500 and a meeting fee of $500. For the
year ended February 29, 1996, the Portfolio incurred legal expenses of $12,848
which were earned by a law firm, a partner of which serves as Secretary of the
Trust. Certain officers of the Trust are "affiliated persons" (as defined in the
Act) of BISYS.
30
<PAGE> 33
NOTE 4 -- SECURITIES TRANSACTIONS
During the year ended February 29, 1996, the Portfolio purchased and sold
portfolio securities, excluding short-term securities, in the amount of
$283,161,200 and $219,320,666, respectively.
At February 29, 1996, the cost of the securities of the Portfolio for
federal income tax purposes was substantially the same as for financial
reporting purposes. Accordingly net unrealized appreciation of investments
amounted to $46,422,995 consisting of gross unrealized appreciation of
$48,183,393 and gross unrealized depreciation of $1,760,397.

To the Trustees
and Investors of
Master Investment Trust, Series I
In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including
the portfolio of investments, and the related statements of operations and of
changes in net assets and the supplementary data present fairly, in all material
respects, the financial position of Master Investment Trust, Series I -- Blue
Chip Portfolio (the "Portfolio") at February 29, 1996, the results of its
operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of
the two years in the period then ended and the supplementary data for each of
the periods presented, in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles. These financial statements and supplementary data (hereafter
referred to as "financial statements") are the responsibility of the Portfolio's
management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial
statements in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards which
require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about
whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit
includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and
disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles
used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included
confirmation of securities at February 29, 1996 by correspondence with the
custodian and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed
above.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR SHAREHOLDER REPORT
As a mutual fund shareholder, you receive two financial reports a year that
contain important information about your investment. The financial statements
and financial highlights included in annual reports are audited by an
independent public accounting firm and cover the activity for the past fiscal
year. The independent public accountant provides an opinion letter in each
audited report. A semi-annual report is a six-month interim report that includes
financial statements that are generally not audited by an independent public
accounting firm.
This guide will help you extract the information from the report. The TABLE OF
CONTENTS helps you locate the information you want.
The ECONOMIC REVIEW FROM THE INVESTMENT ADVISER provides a brief overview of
the economy and how it affects the financial markets.
[GRAPHIC]
The INTERVIEW WITH YOUR INVESTMENT MANAGER enables you to gain insight into the
Fund investments and learn more about the investment manager's strategies.
Because a picture or chart can help clarify the text, the investment manager
may have illustrated the most important features of the Fund. The illustrations
may represent the portfolio composition, the largest holdings or a
simplification of the investment manager's investment style.
[GRAPHIC]
In annual reports, mutual funds, which are not "money market" funds, are
required by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to provide
shareholders with a comparison of a hypothetical $10,000 investment in the Fund
to a benchmark of the broader market. The performance of the benchmark index
depicts the aggregate performance of investments similar to those in the Fund
for the same time period. While the benchmark index provides a general
representation of the market, there are two reasons why it should be used only
as a guide. First, the Fund, in its prospectus, must clearly define which
investments can be made by the Fund. The index does not necessarily have the
same limitations. Second, the index does not reflect any expenses that
accompany a real investment, such as sales charges, management fees,
portfolio transaction
[GRAPHIC]

<PAGE> 44
costs or the cash reserves required to provide daily liquidity. The performance
of the Fund must show these costs as well as any front-end or deferred sales
charges.
The financial statements summarize and describe the Fund's financial
transactions. They are broken down into four different statements, which are
illustrated below:
The PORTFOLIO OF INVESTMENTS lists each investment holding in the Fund as of the
date of the report. Investments may be grouped by category (by industry or
security type, for example). The percentage of the Fund's net assets represented
by these groupings is also disclosed.
[GRAPHIC]

The STATEMENT OF ASSETS AND LIABILITIES lists all the assets and liabilities of
the Fund as of the date of the statement. This is an individual fund's "balance
sheet." Also disclosed in this statement are the Fund's net asset value per
share and its maximum offering price per share as of the date of the statement.
The statement also lists the accounts that comprise the Fund's net assets
(capital stock, undistributed income, etc.).

ECONOMIC REVIEW
FROM THE INVESTMENT ADVISER
The 12 months ended February 29, 1996, witnessed a year of surprising strength
in the financial markets. Stock prices rose sharply, with the Dow Jones
Industrial Average surging 38% and other stock market indices posting very
strong gains. The bond market also turned in healthy results, particularly in
the long-term sector, with the bellwether 30-year Treasury bond registering an
18.45% total return.
The stock and bond markets were propelled largely by the Federal Reserve Board's
apparent success at slowing the economy to a sustainable annual growth rate of
around 2% and, at the same time, keeping inflation under control.
FUNDAMENTAL ECONOMIC
STRENGTHS
This favorable combination of modest economic growth and a low-inflation
environment allowed long-term interest rates to decline through most of the
period, spurring gains for both stocks and bonds. In fact, with mounting
evidence of slower economic growth, the Federal Reserve began lowering
short-term rates last summer to help prevent the economy from slowing down too
much.
Meanwhile, corporate profits continued to grow at a solid clip. The major
factors driving earnings included productivity gains and rising exports. In
addition, the U.S. dollar generally was weak, so the overseas profits that many
American companies earned in foreign currencies became more valuable in dollar
terms.
ASSET ALLOCATION KEY
TO PERFORMANCE
For investors, the key investment decision during the period was asset
allocation. The best-performing stock market sectors included financial services
and technology (despite a weak fourth quarter) -- but many other groups also
delivered strong gains.
LOOKING AHEAD
We expect the market environment in 1996 to favor our approach, as investors
look for companies that can produce consistent earnings gains in an economy
growing at a relatively modest 2%-to-3% annual rate. Corporate profits should
continue to grow as companies continue to reap the benefits of productivity
gains made during the past decade. However, earnings aren't likely to rise as
quickly as they did last year.
The economy's pace probably will be slow enough to prevent a sharp rebound in
interest rates, which is good news for both stock and bond investors. But it's
also unlikely that rates will decline sharply from their current levels, which
are high relative to inflation. Thus, stock and bond investors might expect more
modest returns during the coming year than they received in 1995. Still, that
leaves plenty of room for respectable performance.

GOAL:
The Pacific Horizon National Municipal Bond Fund seeks to achieve as high a
level of current interest income exempt from federal income tax as is consistent
with prudent investment management and preservation of capital.
INVESTMENTS:
The Fund invests primarily in investment-grade municipal securities issued on
behalf of states, territories and possessions of the
United States, the District of Columbia and their respective authorities,
agencies, instrumentalities and political subdivisions.
APPROPRIATE FOR:
Investors seeking monthly interest income exempt from federal income tax.
INCEPTION:
January 28, 1994
SIZE OF FUND AS OF
FEBRUARY 29, 1996:
Over $12 million
Q
WHAT FACTORS AFFECTED THE FUND'S PERFORMANCE DURING THE PERIOD?
A
The 12 months ended February 29, 1996, were a good time to be invested in
bonds. Interest rates fell during most of the period as the economy slowed
faster than most people expected. The biggest gains occurred in funds that held
longer-term issues. Prices of longer-term bonds typically rise more than those
of short-term bonds when interest rates fall.
The Fund's average maturity at the start of the period was about equal to the
average maturity of its benchmark, the Lehman Brothers Municipal Bond Index. But
when bond prices temporarily declined during the summer, we used the opportunity
to lock in higher yields by purchasing more long-term issues. That decision
helped the Fund's performance when rates fell again. By December, however, bond
prices had climbed sharply, and the risk of a bond market correction seemed
higher. The Fund took advantage of this opportunity by reducing the Fund's
average maturity to help maintain price stability.
For the 12 months ended February 29, 1996, the Fund had a total return of 11.16%
(without the sales charge), outperforming the Lehman Brothers Municipal Bond
Index, which was up 11.05% for the period.+
Q
WHAT ABOUT THE FUND'S FOCUS ON CREDIT QUALITY?
A
As the Fund's average maturity was reduced in January and February of 1996,
its exposure was increased to lower-quality, investment-grade issues rated A-
and BBB. The higher yields from those securities helped make up for the slight
loss in income caused by shortening the average maturity of the Fund. Despite
this
8
<PAGE> 48
shift, the Fund contains only investment-grade securities, and the overall
credit quality of the securities in the portfolio remained around AA-.
Q WHAT OTHER SECURITIES DID THE FUND HOLD?
A The Fund continued to emphasize revenue bonds, which are backed by revenues
from specific municipal projects. Revenue bonds typically pay higher yields than
general obligation bonds (GOs), which draw on the taxing power of the issuer to
cover principal and interest payments.
Q AREN'T REVENUE BONDS
RISKIER?
A Not always. Bonds backed by revenues from essential services such as
supplying municipal water often can rely on consistent revenues even when the
economy is struggling. By contrast, the taxing power of GOs can be strongly
affected by economic conditions.
Q WHAT ARE EXAMPLES OF REPRESENTATIVE REVENUE BONDS IN THE
PORTFOLIO?
A Two of the Fund's three largest holdings were industrial revenue bonds. They
were issued by communities to promote development or help a company finance
pollution control equipment; however, the real borrower is the corporation. For
example, we held Maury County Tennessee industrial revenue bonds with a 6.5%
coupon, due 2024 and rated A- by Standard & Poor's. The bonds are backed by
Saturn Corporation, a subsidiary of General Motors. The Fund's largest holding
is a pollution control bond issued by Lower Neches Valley Authority, Texas, with
a 5.65% coupon; the bond is due in 2029 and rated AA. This bond is backed by
Mobil Oil Corp. (As of February 29, 1996, the former bond accounted for 4.23% of
net assets; the latter accounted for 4.71%.++)
Q DID DISCUSSIONS OF A FLAT TAX HURT THE FUND?
A Early in the period, investors were concerned that some version of a flat
tax could eventually eliminate the tax advantages of municipal bonds. Those
fears grew as Steve Forbes' presidential campaign temporarily flourished. But
concerns diminished late in the period, and municipal bonds recovered some of
the ground they had lost to taxable issues.
Q WHAT'S AHEAD FOR THE FUND AND THE MUNICIPAL MARKET?
A It seems likely that the economy will continue to grow modestly, and
interest rates should be relatively stable. That means we will continue to
maintain a relatively neutral average maturity for the Fund's portfolio (that
is, we'll try to match the average maturity of our benchmark index). We'll
adjust our holdings to take advantage of opportunities if bond prices
decline -- or to reduce the Fund's risk if long-term municipal bonds seem
overvalued.

HOW PERFORMANCE COMPARES
The chart compares the Pacific Horizon National Municipal Bond Fund to the
Lehman Brothers Municipal Bond Index, which is an unmanaged index typically used
as a performance benchmark for municipal debt investments. The hypothetical
investment in the Lehman Brothers Municipal Bond Index does not reflect any
sales or management fees that would be incurred if an investor were to actually
purchase individual securities or mutual funds, while the performance of the
Fund reflects all expenses and management fees and the effect of the maximum
sales charge.

The Fund fared well compared to municipal debt funds. The average of municipal
debt funds as tracked by Lipper Analytical Services, Inc. measures the
performance of other funds with investment objectives and policies similar to
those of the Pacific Horizon National Municipal Bond Fund. An initial $10,000
investment in the Fund made on January 31, 1994 would now be worth $10,782,
while the same investment made in the Lipper General Municipal Debt Funds
Average would be worth $10,560.
SEE INVESTMENT MANAGER INTERVIEW FOR FACTORS AFFECTING FUND PERFORMANCE.
The advisor and administrator are voluntarily waiving advisory and
administrative fees for the Fund and administrative and advisory fees for the
Master Investment Trust, in which the Fund is wholly invested. The administrator
is also reimbursing expenses for the Fund. If the adviser and administrator had
not waived fees and reimbursed expenses, total return would have been lower.
This voluntary waiver of fees and reimbursement of expenses may be modified or
terminated at any time, which would reduce the Fund's performance.
Investment return and principal value are historical and will vary with market
conditions, so an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less
than their original cost.
Return figures for the Fund include change in share price, reinvestment of
dividends and capital gains distributions, if any, and the effect of the maximum
4.50% sales charge.

TAX-EQUIVALENT YIELD The Bottom Line Today's higher federal tax rates make
tax-exempt income more attractive. This chart enables you to determine what the
yield on a taxable investment would have to be to match a hypothetical
tax-exempt yield.* For example, in order to equal a 5% tax-exempt yield, a
taxable investment would have to yield between 6.94% and 8.28%, depending on
your federal tax bracket. The higher your tax bracket, the better the potential
after-tax result of investing in a tax-exempt fund. The Pacific Horizon National
Municipal Bond Fund seeks to provide a high level of current income free from
federal income tax, consistent with prudent investment management and
preservation of capital.

PACIFIC HORIZON NATIONAL MUNICIPAL BOND FUND
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Notes to Financial Statements
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE 1 -- GENERAL
Pacific Horizon Funds, Inc. (the "Company"), a Maryland Corporation, is
registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "Act"), as
an open-end management investment company. At February 29, 1996, the Company
operated as a series company comprising fifteen portfolios. The accompanying
financial statements and notes are those of the Pacific Horizon National
Municipal Bond Fund (the "Fund") only. The Fund seeks to achieve as high a level
of current income exempt from Federal income tax as is consistent with prudent
investment management and preservation of capital.
The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing
substantially all of its assets in the National Municipal Bond Portfolio of
Master Investment Trust, Series II (the "Trust"), an open-end management
investment company that has the same investment objective as that of the Fund.
The value of the Fund's investment in the Trust included in the accompanying
statement of assets and liabilities reflect the Fund's proportionate beneficial
interest in the net assets of the Trust (100% at February 29, 1996). The
financial statements of the Trust, including its portfolio of investments, are
included elsewhere within this report and should be read in conjunction with the
Fund's financial statements.
Concord Holding Corporation ("Concord") serves as the Fund's administrator
and Concord Financial Group, Inc. (the "Distributor"), a wholly owned subsidiary
of Concord, serves as the distributor of the Fund's shares. Effective March 29,
1995, Concord became a wholly owned subsidiary of The BISYS Group, Inc.
("BISYS").
NOTE 2 -- SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by
the Fund in preparation of its financial statements. The policies are in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of
financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts and disclosures. Actual results could differ from
those estimates.
A) INVESTMENT INCOME, EXPENSES AND REALIZED AND UNREALIZED GAINS AND LOSSES:
The Fund records its shares of the investment income, expenses and realized
and unrealized gains and losses recorded by the Trust on a daily basis. The
investment income, expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses are
allocated daily to investors in the Trust based upon the relative values of
their investments in the Trust. Such investments are adjusted on a daily basis.
For the year ended February 29, 1996, the Fund was the only inves-
15
<PAGE> 55
tor in the Trust. The valuation of securities by the Trust is discussed in Note
2 to the Trust's financial statements.
Expenses directly attributable to the Fund are charged to the Fund while
Company expenses attributable to more than one fund of the Company are allocated
among the respective funds.
B) DIVIDENDS TO SHAREHOLDERS:
Dividends are declared daily to shareholders of record from the net
investment income. Such dividends are paid monthly. Net realized gains, if any,
will be distributed at least annually. However, to the extent that net realized
gains of the Fund can be reduced by capital loss carryovers, such gains will not
be distributed. Dividends and distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend
date.
The amounts of dividends from net investment income and of distributions
from net realized gains are determined in accordance with federal income tax
regulations which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles.
These "book/tax" differences are either considered temporary or permanent in
nature. To the extent these differences are permanent in nature, such amounts
are reclassified within the composition of net assets based on their federal
tax-basis treatment; temporary differences do not require reclassification.
Dividends and distributions to shareholders which exceed net investment income
and net realized capital gains for financial reporting purposes but not for tax
purposes are reported as dividends in excess of net investment income or
distributions in excess of net realized gains. To the extent they exceed net
investment income and net realized gains for tax purposes, they are reported as
distributions of capital.
C) FEDERAL INCOME TAXES:
It is the policy of the Fund to continue to qualify as a regulated
investment company which can distribute tax-exempt dividends by complying with
the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment
companies, including the requirement that it distribute substantially all of its
net investment income to its shareholders. Therefore, no provision for federal
income taxes is required.
During the year ended February 29, 1996, the Fund utilized its net capital
loss carryover of $3,632.
D) OTHER:
The Fund incurred costs in connection with its organization of $68,467. Such
costs have been deferred and are being amortized.
NOTE 3 -- AGREEMENTS AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
The Fund has an Administration Agreement with Concord and a Distribution
Agreement with the Distributor. Pursuant to the terms of the Administration
Agreement, Concord is entitled to a fee from the Fund, which is accrued daily
and payable monthly, at an annual rate of 0.15% of the Fund's average daily net
assets. For the year ended February 29,
16
<PAGE> 56
1996, Concord agreed to waive its entire fee as Administrator. Total fee waivers
and expense reimbursements by Concord for the year totaled $182,614.
During the year ended February 29, 1996, the Distributor advised the Fund
that it retained $40,099 from commissions earned on sales of the Fund's shares.
During the same period, Bank of America and its affiliates advised the Fund that
they retained $325,350 from commissions earned on sales of the Fund's shares.
The Fund has adopted a Shareholder Service Plan (the "Plan") under which the
Fund pays the Distributor for shareholder servicing expenses related to shares
of the Fund. Under the Plan, payments by the fund for shareholder servicing
expenses may not exceed 0.25% (annualized) of the Fund's average daily net
assets. For the year ended February 29, 1996, the Distributor waived all
shareholder servicing fees. The Plan provides that if, in any month, the fees
paid to the Distributor are less than the costs incurred by the Distributor, the
excess costs will be included in future computations of the fee, provided that
any excess costs will not be carried forward beyond the end of the fiscal year
in which such excess costs are incurred.
Effective December 11, 1995, BISYS Fund Services, Inc., a wholly owned
subsidiary of BISYS, serves the Fund as transfer agent and dividend disbursing
agent. In this capacity for the portfolio, BISYS Fund Services, Inc. earned
$5,130 for the period from December 11, 1995 through February 29, 1996. Prior to
December 11, 1995, an unaffiliated party provided these services.
For the year end February 29, 1996, the Fund incurred legal charges totaling
$33,877 which were earned by a law firm, a partner of which serves as Secretary
of the Fund. Certain officers of the Fund are "affiliated persons" (as defined
in the Act) of BISYS.

purpose of calculating the payments described above shall be based upon service
as a Director or Chairman after February 28, 1994. Aggregate costs to the Fund

generally accepted accounting principles. These financial statements and
financial highlights (hereafter referred to as "financial statements") are the
responsibility of the Funds' management; our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our
audits of these financial statements in accordance with generally accepted
auditing standards which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material

is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "Act"),
as an open-end management investment company. At February 29, 1996, the Trust
consisted of one portfolio, the National Municipal Bond Portfolio (the
"Portfolio") which commenced investment operations on January 28, 1994. The
Portfolio seeks to achieve as high a level of current income exempt from Federal
income tax as is consistent with prudent investment management and preservation
of capital.
Bank of America National Trust and Savings Association ("Bank of America"),
a subsidiary of BankAmerica Corporation, serves as the Portfolio's investment
adviser. Concord Holding Corporation ("Concord") serves as the Fund's
administrator. Effective March 29, 1995, Concord became a wholly owned
subsidiary of The BISYS Group, Inc. ("BISYS").
NOTE 2 -- SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by
the Portfolio in the preparation of its financial statements. The policies are
in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of
financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts and disclosures. Actual results could differ from
those estimates.
A) SECURITY VALUATIONS:
Portfolio securities for which market quotations are readily available
(other than debt securities with remaining maturities of 60 days or less) are
valued at the mean between the current quoted bid and ask prices on the date of
valuation. Restricted securities and securities for which market quotations are
not readily available, if any, are valued at fair value using methods approved
by the Board of Trustees. The Portfolio may use an independent pricing service,
approved by the Board of Trustees, to value certain of its securities. Such
prices reflect market values which may be established through the use of
electronic data processing techniques and matrix systems. Debt securities with
remaining maturities of 60 days or less are valued at amortized cost, which
approximates market value. The amortized cost method involves valuing a security
at its cost on the date of purchase or, in the case of securities purchased with
more than 60 days until maturity, at their market value each day until the 61st
day prior to maturity, and thereafter assuming a constant amortization to
maturity of the difference between the principal amount due at maturity and such
valuation.
29
<PAGE> 69
B) SECURITIES TRANSACTIONS AND
INVESTMENT INCOME:
Securities transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Realized
gains and losses on securities transactions are determined on the identified
cost basis. Interest income, including amortization of premium and accretion of
discount where required by the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code"), is accrued
daily.
C) FEDERAL INCOME TAXES:
The Portfolio will be treated as a partnership for federal income tax
purposes. As such, each investor in the Portfolio will be taxed on its share of
the Portfolio's ordinary income and capital gains. It is intended that the
Portfolio will be managed in such a way that an investor will be able to satisfy
the requirements of the Code applicable to regulated investment companies.
D) OTHER:
The Portfolio incurred initial costs in connection with its organization of
$29,714. Such costs have been deferred and are being amortized.
NOTE 3 -- AGREEMENTS AND OTHER
TRANSACTIONS WITH
AFFILIATES
The Portfolio has an Investment Advisory Agreement with Bank of America and
an Administration Agreement with Concord.
As Adviser, Bank of America is responsible for managing the investment
portfolio of the Portfolio. For its services, Bank of America is entitled to a
fee, accrued daily and paid monthly, at an annual rate of 0.35% of the average
daily net assets of the Portfolio. For the year ended February 29, 1996, Bank of
America waived its entire fee as Adviser.
As Administrator, Concord assists in supervising the operations of the
Portfolio. For its services, Concord is entitled to a fee, accrued daily and
payable monthly, at an annual rate of 0.05% of the Portfolio's average daily net
assets. For the year ended February 29, 1996, Concord waived its entire fee as
Administrator and reimbursed the Portfolio for all of its other operating costs
which amounted to $169,773.
For services provided to the Trust, each Trustee receives an annual fee of
$1,500 and a meeting fee of $500. For the year ended February 29, 1996, the
Portfolio incurred legal charges totaling $33,824 which were earned by a law
firm, a partner of which serves as Secretary of the Trust. Certain officers of
the Trust are "affiliated persons" (as defined in the Act) of BISYS.
NOTE 4 -- PURCHASES AND SALES OF SECURITIES
For the year ended February 29, 1996, the cost of portfolio securities
purchased and the proceeds from portfolio securities sold, excluding short-term
investments, amounted to $11,931,990 and $2,596,533, respectively.
NOTE 5 -- SUBSEQUENT EVENT
On April 24, 1996, the Board of Trustees of Master Investment Trust, Series
II -- National Municipal Bond Portfolio voted to approve the reorganiza-
30
<PAGE> 70
tion of the Portfolio whereby all of the assets and liabilities of the Portfolio
would be transferred to the Pacific Horizon National Municipal Bond Fund.
Following the reorganization, the Adviser would enter into a new Investment
Advisory Agreement with the Fund with substantially the same terms and
conditions. Certain other contracts with service providers require the approval
of the Board of Directors of the Fund.

To the Trustees
and Investor of
Master Investment Trust, Series II
In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including
the portfolio of investments, and the related statements of operations and of
changes in net assets and the supplementary data present fairly, in all material
respects, the financial position of Master Investment Trust, Series
II -- National Municipal Bond Portfolio (the "Portfolio") at February 29, 1996,
the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net
assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and its supplementary
data for each of the periods presented, in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles. These financial statements and supplementary data
(hereafter referred to as "financial statements") are the responsibility of the
Portfolio's management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these
financial statements in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards
which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance
about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An
audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and
disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles
used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included
confirmation of securities at February 29, 1996 by correspondence with the
custodian, provide a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR SHAREHOLDER REPORT
As a mutual fund shareholder, you receive two financial reports a year that
contain important information about your investment. The financial statements
and financial highlights included in annual reports are audited by an
independent public accounting firm and cover the activity for the past fiscal
year. The independent public accountant provides an opinion letter in each
audited report. A semi-annual report is a six-month interim report that includes
financial statements that are generally not audited by an independent public
accounting firm.
This guide will help you extract the information from
the report.
The TABLE OF CONTENTS helps
you locate the information you
want.
The ECONOMIC REVIEW FROM THE
INVESTMENT ADVISER provides a
brief overview of the economy [GRAPH]
and how it affects the
financial markets.
The INTERVIEW WITH YOUR
INVESTMENT MANAGER enables you
to gain insight into the Fund
investments and learn more
about the Fund manager's
strategies.
Because a picture or chart can
help clarify the text, the
portfolio management team may
have illustrated the most
important features of the
Fund.
The illustrations may represent the portfolio
composition, the largest holdings or a simplification
of the investment adviser's investment style.
In annual reports, mutual funds, which are not "money
market" funds, are required by the Securities and
Exchange Commission (SEC) to provide shareholders with
[GRAPH] a comparison of a hypothetical $10,000 investment in
the Fund to a benchmark of the broader market. The
performance of the benchmark index depicts the
aggregate performance of investments similar to those
in the Fund for the same time period. While the
benchmark index provides a general representation of
the market, there are two
reasons
why
it should be used only as a
guide. First, the Fund, in its
prospectus, must clearly define
which investments can be made by
the Fund. The index does not [GRAPH]
necessarily have the same
limitations. Second, the index
does not reflect any expenses
that accompany a real investment,
such as
4
<PAGE> 81
sales charges, management fees, portfolio accompany a real investment, such as
sales charges, management fees, portfolio transaction costs or the cash reserves
required to provide daily liquidity. The performance of the Fund must show these
costs as well as any front-end or deferred sales charges.
The financial statements summarize and describe the Fund's financial
transactions. They are broken down into four different statements, which are
illustrated below:
The PORTFOLIO OF INVESTMENTS lists each investment holding in the Fund as of the
date of the report. Investments may be grouped by category (by industry or
security type, for example). The percentage of the Fund's net assets represented
by these groupings is also disclosed.

INDUSTRY SECTOR AND PERCENTAGE OF THE FUND'S
[GRAPH] NET ASSETS REPRESENTED BY INVESTMENTS IN THAT
SECTOR (IF APPLICABLE)

The STATEMENT OF ASSETS AND LIABILITIES lists all the assets and liabilities of
the Fund as of the date of the statement. This is an individual fund's "balance
sheet." Also disclosed in this statement are the Fund's net asset value per
share and its maximum offering price per share as of the date of the statement.
The statement also lists the accounts that comprise the Fund's
net assets (capital stock, undistributed
income, etc.).

The NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS are footnotes to the statements listed above.
These notes include information on accounting methods used by the Fund,
contractual arrangements between the Fund and its service providers, certain
transactions effected by the Fund and other general information about the Fund.
The FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS show, for a single share outstanding throughout each
period presented, the net investment income, the realized and unrealized gains
and losses and the dividends and distributions of the Fund. It also shows key
data and ratios (such as the total investment return for each period), the
portfolio turnover rate for Funds other than money market mutual funds, the
ratio of expenses to average net assets and the ratio of net investment income
to average net assets.

ECONOMIC REVIEW
FROM THE INVESTMENT ADVISER
The 12 months ended February 29, 1996, witnessed a year of surprising strength
in the financial markets. Stock prices rose sharply, with the Dow Jones
Industrial Average surging 38% and other stock market indices posting very
strong gains. The bond market also turned in healthy results, particularly in
the long-term sector, with the bellwether 30-year Treasury bond registering an
18.45% total return.
The stock and bond markets were propelled largely by the Federal Reserve Board's
apparent success at slowing the economy to a sustainable annual growth rate of
around 2% and, at the same time, keeping inflation under control.
FUNDAMENTAL ECONOMIC
STRENGTHS
This favorable combination of modest economic growth and a low-inflation
environment allowed long-term interest rates to decline through most of the
period, spurring gains for both stocks and bonds. In fact, with mounting
evidence of slower economic growth, the Federal Reserve began lowering
short-term rates last summer to help prevent the economy from slowing down too
much.
Meanwhile, corporate profits continued to grow at a solid clip. The major
factors driving earnings included productivity gains and rising exports. In
addition, the U.S. dollar generally was weak, so the overseas profits that many
American companies earned in foreign currencies became more valuable in dollar
terms.
ASSET ALLOCATION KEY
TO PERFORMANCE
For investors, the key investment decision during the period was asset
allocation. The best-performing stock market sectors included financial services
and technology (despite a weak fourth quarter)-- but many other groups also
delivered strong gains.
LOOKING AHEAD
We expect the market environment in 1996 to favor our approach, as investors
look for companies that can produce consistent earnings gains in an economy
growing at a relatively modest 2%-to-3% annual rate. Corporate profits should
continue to grow as companies continue to reap the benefits of productivity
gains made during the past decade. However, earnings aren't likely to rise as
quickly as they did last year.
The economy's pace probably will be slow enough to prevent a sharp rebound in
interest rates, which is good news for both stock and bond investors. But it's
also unlikely that rates will decline sharply from their current levels, which
are high relative to inflation. Thus, stock and bond investors might expect more
modest returns during the coming year than they received in 1995. Still, that
leaves plenty of room for respectable performance.

- ----------------------
STEVEN L. VIELHABER
Director of Taxable Fixed Income
Bank of America NT&SA
Mr. Vielhaber is a leading member of the investment management team for the
Flexible Bond Fund.
GOAL:
The Pacific Horizon Flexible Bond Fund seeks interest income and capital
appreciation.
INVESTMENTS:
The Fund invests in a diversified portfolio of investment-grade, intermediate-
and longer-term bonds, including corporate and government fixed-income
obligations, mortgage-backed securities, municipal securities and cash
equivalents.
APPROPRIATE FOR:
Investors who want interest income and capital appreciation from a diversified
portfolio of fixed-income securities.
INCEPTION:
January 24, 1994
SIZE OF FUND AS OF
FEBRUARY 29, 1996:
Over $13 million
Q
HOW DID YOU MANAGE THE FUND DURING THE RECENT PERIOD?
A
The Fund maintained a relatively
stable average duration of about 3.25 years during the 12 months ended
February 29, 1996. That was relatively close to the average duration of the
Fund's benchmark, the Lehman Brothers Government/Corporate Index. Duration is a
measure of a fund's price sensitivity to changes in interest rates; thus, our
Fund's share price was about as sensitive as the index to interest-rate changes.
A duration of about three years is fairly short and means that the Fund's net
asset value (NAV) is likely to be more stable than the NAVs of longer-duration
portfolios. (The tradeoff for enhanced stability: potentially lower returns if
interest rates fall.)
There are different ways to meet a specific duration target. For example, one
way is to create an average duration of three years by combining very short-term
issues with longer term issues. Instead of this strategy, we chose a "bulleted"
approach, with a concentration in intermediate-term issues. We feel that our
approach tends to provide better returns when the Federal Reserve reduces
short-term interest rates, as it did during the recent period.
Our strategy resulted in a total return of 10.45% (without the sales charge) for
the Fund for the 12-months ended February 29, 1996, compared to 10.76% for the
Lehman Brothers Government/Corporate Intermediate Bond Index, for the same
period.+
Q
HOW DID YOU CHANGE THE FUND'S EXPOSURE TO DIFFERENT SECTORS OF THE BOND
MARKET?
A
We upgraded the credit quality of the Fund as the economy continued to slow.
When the economy slows, investors
8
<PAGE> 85
tend to prefer bonds whose issuers are in a strong position to weather a
sluggish environment. We sold our 5% stake in bonds rated BBB, which are at the
low end of the investment-grade spectrum. We also reduced the maturity of our
corporate holdings. That trimmed our risk in the corporate sector while allowing
us to pick up some extra yield over Treasury bonds. Because of their high credit
quality, the Fund's longer-maturity holdings were concentrated in Treasury
securities.
Q
WHAT DO YOU SEE AHEAD FOR THE BOND MARKET AND THE FUND?
A
It seems likely that the economy will continue to grow at a relatively slow
rate during the coming period. In this environment, the Fund will continue to
emphasize higher-quality issues. We'll also concentrate on intermediate-term
securities and maintain a relatively neutral average duration -- that is, one
that is close to that of the Lehman Brothers index. And we'll continue to look
for opportunities to add value by purchasing undervalued securities.

all expenses and management fees and the effect of the maximum sales charge.
The Fund tracked other bond funds. The average of intermediate investment funds
reported by Lipper Analytical Services, Inc. measures the performance of other
funds with investment objectives and policies similar to those of the Pacific
Horizon Flexible Bond Fund. An initial $10,000 investment in the Fund made on
January 31, 1994 would be worth $10,629 on February 29, 1996, while the same
investment made in the Lipper Intermediate Investment Funds Average would be
worth $10,882.
SEE INVESTMENT MANAGER INTERVIEW FOR FACTORS AFFECTING FUND PERFORMANCE.
The adviser and administrator are voluntarily waiving advisory and
administrative fees for the Fund and administrative and advisory fees for the
Master Investment Trust, in which the Fund is wholly invested. The administrator
is also reimbursing expenses for the Fund. If the adviser and administrator had
not waived fees and reimbursed expenses, total return would have been lower.
This voluntary waiver of fees and reimbursement of expenses may be modified or
terminated at any time, which would reduce the Fund's performance.
Investment return and principal value are historical and will vary with market
conditions, so an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less
than their original cost.
Return figures for the Fund include change in share price, reinvestment of
dividends and capital gains distributions, if any, and the effect of the maximum
4.50% sales charge.
Lipper Analytical Services, Inc. is an independent mutual fund-monitoring
organization.
Neither the Lipper Intermediate Investment Funds Average nor the Lehman Brothers
Government/Corporate Intermediate Bond Index may be invested in directly.

QUALITY
The credit research team at Bank of America, the Fund's adviser,
monitors debt instruments and issuer quality to identify fixed-income
securities for the Fund. With its emphasis on quality, the Fund
invests primarily in securities that are rated investment grade by an
independent rating service or that are issued by the U.S. Government. The
security selection process also depends on information about broad economic
factors that can affect the bond markets.
- -----------------
* The composition of the Fund's
holdings is subject to change.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FLEXIBILITY [GRAPH]
Capitalizing on Changing Markets
The Fund invests in a varied
portfolio of quality bonds in an
effort to protect principal against
sharp price fluctuations and
stabilize net asset value. The
Fund's adviser has great latitude in
deciding how assets are invested
among corporate, government and
mortgage-backed obligations. That
means the Fund enjoys total
flexibility to make the most of
changing market conditions.

PACIFIC HORIZON FLEXIBLE BOND FUND
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Notes to Financial Statements
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE 1 -- GENERAL
Pacific Horizon Funds, Inc. (the "Company"), a Maryland corporation, is
registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "Act"), as
an open-end management investment company. At February 29, 1996, the Company
operated as a series company comprising fifteen funds. The accompanying
financial statements and notes are those of the Pacific Horizon Flexible Bond
Fund (the "Fund") only.
The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objectives by investing
substantially all of its assets in the Investment Grade Bond Portfolio of Master
Investment Trust, Series I (the "Portfolio"), an open-ended management
investment company, that has the same investment objective as that of the Fund.
The value of the Fund's investment in the Portfolio included in the accompanying
statements of assets and liabilities reflects the Fund's proportionate
beneficial interest in the net assets of the Portfolio (19.8% at February 29,
1996). The financial statements of the Portfolio, including the portfolio of
investments, are included elsewhere within this report and should be read in
conjunction with the Fund's financial statements.
Concord Holding Corporation ("Concord") serves as the Fund's administrator
and Concord Financial Group, Inc. (the "Distributor"), a wholly owned subsidiary
of Concord, serves as the distributor of the Fund's shares. Effective March 29,
1995, Concord became a wholly owned subsidiary of The BISYS Group, Inc.
("BISYS").
NOTE 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 generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of
financial statements in accordance with generally accepted principles requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts
and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from
those estimates.
A) SECURITY VALUATIONS:
The valuation of securities by the Portfolio is discussed in Note 2 of the
Portfolio's financial statements.
B) INVESTMENT INCOME, EXPENSES AND REALIZED AND UNREALIZED GAINS AND LOSSES:
The Fund records its share of the investment income, expenses and realized
and unrealized gains and losses recorded by the Portfolio on a daily basis. The
investment income, expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses are
allocated daily to investors in the Portfolio based upon the value of their
investments in the Portfolio. Such investments are adjusted on a daily basis.
15
<PAGE> 92
C) DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS:
The Fund declares dividends to shareholders of record on the day of
declaration from net investment income. Such dividends are declared daily and
paid monthly. Net realized gains, if any, will be distributed annually. However,
to the extent that net realized gains of the Fund can be offset by capital loss
carryovers of the Fund, such gains will not be distributed. Dividends and
distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
The amounts of dividends from net investment income and of distributions
from net realized gains are determined in accordance with federal income tax
regulations which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles.
These "book/tax" differences are either considered temporary or permanent in
nature. To the extent these differences are permanent in nature, such amounts
are reclassified within the composition of net assets based on their federal
tax-basis treatment; temporary differences do not require reclassification.
Dividends and distributions to shareholders which exceed net investment income
and net realized capital gains for financial reporting purposes but not for tax
purposes are reported as dividends in excess of net investment income or
distributions in excess of net realized gains. To the extent they exceed net
investment income and net realized gains for tax purposes, they are reported as
distributions of capital.
D) FEDERAL INCOME TAXES:
It is the policy of the Fund to meet the requirements of the Internal
Revenue Code (the "Code") applicable to regulated investment companies and to
distribute substantially all of its taxable income to shareholders. Therefore,
no federal income tax provision is required.
E) OTHER:
The Fund incurred certain costs in connection with their organization. Such
costs have been deferred and are being amortized by the Fund on a straight line
basis over five years.
Expenses directly attributable to the Fund are charged to the Fund, while
Company expenses attributable to more than one portfolio of the Company are
allocated among the respective funds.
NOTE 3 -- AGREEMENTS AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
The Fund has an Administration Agreement with Concord and a Distribution
Agreement with the Distributor.
As Administrator, Concord assists in supervising the operations of the Fund.
For its services, Concord is entitled to a fee accrued daily and payable
monthly, at an annual rate of 0.15% of the Fund's average net assets. For the
year ended February 29, 1996 Concord agreed to waive its entire fee as
Administrator.
Concord reimbursed the Fund $253,991 in operating expenses for the year
ended February 29, 1996.
For the year ended February 29, 1996, the Distributor advised the Fund that
it retained $51,076 from commissions earned on sales of the Fund's shares. For
the same period, Bank of America and its affiliates advised the Fund that they
retained $408,407 from commissions earned on sales of the Fund's shares.
16
<PAGE> 93
The Fund has adopted a Shareholder Service Plan (the "Plan") under which the
Fund pays the Distributor for shareholder servicing expenses incurred in
connection with shares of the Fund. Under the Plan, payments by the Fund may not
exceed 0.25% (annualized) of the Fund's average daily net assets. For the year
ended February 29, 1996, the Distributor waived all shareholder service fees.
The Plan provides that if, in any months, the fees paid to the Distributor are
less than the costs incurred by the Distributor, the excess costs will be
included in future computations of the fee, provided that any excess costs will
not be carried forward beyond the end of the fiscal year in which such excess
costs were incurred.
Effective December 11, 1995, BISYS Fund Services, Inc., also a wholly owned
subsidiary, served the Fund as transfer agent and dividend disbursing agent. In
this capacity, BISYS Fund Services, Inc. earned $4,265 for the period from
December 11, 1995 through February 1996. Prior to December 11, 1995 an unrelated
party provided these services.
For the year ended February 29, 1996, the Fund incurred legal charges
totaling $47,105 which were earned by a law firm, a partner of which serves as
Secretary of the Company. Certain officers of the Company are "affiliated
persons" (as defined in the Act) of BISYS.
NOTE 4 -- DIRECTORS' COMPENSATION
Each director of the Company is entitled to an annual retainer of $25,000,
plus $1,000 for each day the director participates in all or part of a Board or
Committee meeting and the Chairman of each Committee receives an annual retainer
of $1,000 for services as Chairman of the Committee. In addition, the Fund's
President is entitled to an annual salary of $20,000 for services as President.
The former president and chairman of the Company receives an additional $40,000
per year through February 28, 1997 in consideration of his services.
The Board has also established a retirement plan (the "Retirement Plan") for
the Directors. The Retirement Plan provides that each Director who dies or
resigns after five years of service as a director will be entitled to receive
ten annual payments each equal to the greater of: (i) 50% of the annual
Director's retainer that was payable during the year of that director's death or
resignation, or (ii) 50% of the annual Director's retainer then in effect for
Directors of the Fund during the year of such payment. A Director who dies or
resigns after nine years of service as a director will be entitled to receive
ten annual payments equal to the greater of: (i) 100% of the annual Director's
retainer that was payable during the year of that Director's death or
resignation, or (ii) 100% of the annual Director's retainer then in effect for
Directors of the Fund during the year of such payment. In addition, the amount
payable each year to a Director who dies or resigns shall be increased by $1,000
for each year of service that the Director served as Chairman of the Board. Each
Director may receive any benefits payable under the Retirement Plan, at his or
her election, either in one lump sum payment or ten annual installments. A
Director's years of service for the
17
<PAGE> 94
purpose of calculating the payments described above shall be based upon service
as a Director or Chairman after February 28, 1994. Aggregate costs to the Fund
pursuant to the Retirement Plan amounted to $20, for the year ended February 29,
1996.
NOTE 5 -- CAPITAL SHARE TRANSACTIONS
At February 29, 1996, there were 200 billion shares of the Company's $0.001
par value capital stock authorized, of which 100 million shares were classified
as Class M Common Stock, (Flexible Bond Fund).
Transactions in shares of the Fund are summarized below (000's omitted):

Pacific Horizon Funds, Inc.
In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities and the
related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial
highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of
the Pacific Horizon Flexible Bond Fund (one of the portfolios constituting
Pacific Horizon Funds, Inc., hereafter referred to as the "Funds") at February
29, 1996, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in
its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and the
financial highlights for each of the periods presented, in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles. These financial statements and
financial highlights (hereafter referred to as "financial statements") are the
responsibility of the Funds' management; our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our
audits of these financial statements in accordance with generally accepted
auditing standards which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the
accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audits provide a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above.

MASTER INVESTMENT TRUST, SERIES I --
INVESTMENT GRADE BOND PORTFOLIO
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Notes to Financial Statements
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE 1 -- GENERAL
Master Investment Trust, Series I (the "Trust"), a Delaware business trust,
is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as amended (the "Act"),
as an open-end management investment company. At February 29, 1996, the Trust
consisted of four portfolios. The accompanying financial statements and notes
are those of the Investment Grade Bond Portfolio (the "Portfolio") only.
The investment objective of the Portfolio is to obtain interest income and
capital appreciation by investing in investment grade intermediate and longer
term bonds, including corporate and governmental fixed income obligations and
mortgaged backed securities.
Bank of America National Trust and Savings Association ("Bank of America"),
a wholly owned subsidiary of BankAmerica Corporation, serves as the Portfolio's
investment adviser. Concord Holding Corporation ("Concord") serves as the
Portfolio's administrator through BISYS Fund Services (Ireland) Ltd., a wholly
owned subsidiary of Concord. Effective March 29, 1995, Concord became a wholly
owned subsidiary of The BISYS Group, Inc. ("BISYS").
NOTE 2 -- SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by
the Portfolio in the preparation of its financial statements. The policies are
in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of
financial statements in accordance with generally accepted principles requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts
and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from
those estimates.
A) SECURITY VALUATIONS:
Portfolio securities for which market quotations are readily available
(other than debt securities with remaining maturities of 60 days or less) are
valued at the last reported sales price on the date of valuation, or if none is
available, at the mean between the current quoted bid and asked prices on the
date of valuation. The Portfolio may use an independent pricing service,
approved by the Board of Trustees, to value certain of their securities. Such
prices reflect market values which may be established through the use of
electronic data processing techniques and matrix systems. Restricted securities
and securities for which market quotations are not readily available, if any,
are valued at fair value using methods approved by the Board of Trustees. Debt
securities with remaining maturities of 60 days or less are valued at amortized
cost, which approximates market value. The amortized cost method involves
valuing a security at its cost on the date of purchase or, in the case of
securities purchased with more than 60 days until maturity, at their market
value each
26
<PAGE> 103
day until the 61st day prior to maturity, and thereafter assuming a constant
amortization to maturity of the difference between the principal amount due at
maturity and such valuation.
B) SECURITIES TRANSACTIONS AND
INVESTMENT INCOME:
Securities transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Realized
gains and losses on securities transactions are determined on the identified
cost basis. Interest income is accrued daily.
C) EXPENSES:
Expenses directly attributable to the Portfolio are charged to the Portfolio
while Trust expenses attributable to more than one portfolio of the Trust and
general Trust expenses are allocated among the respective portfolios of the
Trust.
D) FEDERAL INCOME TAXES:
The Portfolio will be treated as a partnership for federal income tax
purposes. As such, each investor in the Portfolio will be taxed on its share of
that Portfolio's ordinary income and capital gains. It is intended that the
Portfolio will be managed in such a way that an investor will be able to satisfy
the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment
companies.
NOTE 3 -- AGREEMENTS AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
The Portfolio has an Investment Advisory Agreement with Bank of America and
an Administration Agreement with Concord.
As Adviser, Bank of America is responsible for managing the investment of
the assets of the Portfolio in conformity with the stated objectives and
policies of the Portfolio. For its services, Bank of America is entitled to a
fee, accrued daily and paid monthly, at an annual rate of 0.45% of the average
daily net assets of the Portfolio. For the year ended February 29, 1996, Bank of
America waived its entire fee as Adviser.
As Administrator, Concord assists in supervising the operations of the
Portfolio. For its services, Concord is entitled to a fee, accrued daily and
payable monthly, at an annual rate of 0.05% of the Portfolio's average daily net
assets. For the year ended February 29, 1996, Concord waived its entire fee as
Administrator.
For services provided to all four of the portfolios constituting the Trust,
each Trustee receives an annual fee of $1,500 and a meeting fee of $500. For the
year ended February 29, 1996, the Portfolio incurred legal expenses of $16,094,
which were earned by a law firm, a partner of which serves as Secretary of the
Trust. Certain officers of the Trust are "affiliated persons" (as defined in the
Act) of BISYS.

To the Trustees
and Investors of
Master Investment Trust, Series I
In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including
the portfolio of investments, and the related statements of operations and of
changes in net assets and the supplementary data present fairly, in all material
respects, the financial position of Master Investment Trust, Series
I -- Investment Grade Bond Portfolio (the "Portfolio") at February 29, 1996, the
results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets
for each of the two years in the period then ended and its supplementary data
for each of the periods presented, in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles. These financial statements and supplementary data
(hereafter referred to as "financial statements") are the responsibility of the
Portfolio's management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these
financial statements in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards
which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance
about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An
audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and
disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles
used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included
confirmation of securities at February 29, 1996 by correspondence with the
custodian and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed
above.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR SHAREHOLDER REPORT
As a mutual fund shareholder, you receive two financial reports a year that
contain important information about your investment. The financial statements
and financial highlights included in annual reports are audited by an
independent public accounting firm and cover the activity for the past fiscal
year. The independent public accountant provides an opinion letter in each
audited report. A semi-annual report is a six-month interim report that includes
financial statements that are generally not audited by an independent public
accounting firm.
This guide will help you extract the information from the report.
[GRAPHIC]
The TABLE OF CONTENTS helps you locate the information you want.
The ECONOMIC REVIEW FROM THE INVESTMENT ADVISER provides a brief overview of
the economy and how it affects the financial markets.
The INTERVIEW WITH YOUR INVESTMENT MANAGERS enables you to gain insight into the
Fund investments and learn more about the Fund managers' strategies.
Because a picture or chart can help clarify the text, the investment managers
may have illustrated the most important features of the Fund. The
illustrations may represent the portfolio composition, the largest holdings or
a simplification of the investment managers' investment style.
[GRAPHIC]
In annual reports, mutual funds, which are not "money market" funds, are
required by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to provide
shareholders with a comparison of a hypothetical $10,000 investment in
the Fund to a benchmark of the broader market. The performance of the
benchmark index depicts the aggregate performance of investments similar to
those in the Fund for the same time period. While the benchmark index provides
a general representation of the market, there are two reasons why it should be
used only as a guide. First, the Fund, in its prospectus, must clearly define
which investments can be made by the Fund. The index does not necessarily have
the same limitations. Second, the index does not reflect any expenses that
accompany a real investment, such as sales charges, management fees, portfolio
transaction
[GRAPHIC]

costs or the cash reserves required to provide daily liquidity. The performance
of the Fund must show these costs as well as any front-end or deferred sales
charges.
The financial statements summarize and describe the Fund's financial
transactions. They are broken down into four different statements, which are
illustrated below:
The PORTFOLIO OF INVESTMENTS lists each investment holding in the Fund as of the
date of the report. Investments may be grouped by category (by industry or
security type, for example). The percentage of the Fund's net assets represented
by these groupings is also disclosed.

INDUSTRY SECTOR AND PERCENTAGE OF THE FUND'S
NET ASSETS REPRESENTED BY INVESTMENTS IN THAT
[GRAPHIC] SECTOR (IF APPLICABLE)

The STATEMENT OF ASSETS AND LIABILITIES lists all the assets and liabilities of
the Fund as of the date of the statement. This is an individual fund's "balance
sheet." Also disclosed in this statement are the Fund's net asset value per
share and its maximum offering price per share as of the date of the statement.
The statement also lists the accounts that comprise the Fund's
net assets (capital stock, undistributed income, etc.).

The STATEMENT OF CHANGES IN NET ASSETS shows the changes in the net assets of
the Fund during each of the two most recent reporting periods. The changes in
net assets are generally broken down into four distinct sections:
OPERATIONS: SEE STATEMENT OF OPERATIONS
DIVIDENDS TO SHAREHOLDERS: TOTAL INCOME
DIVIDENDS PAID TO SHAREHOLDERS DURING THE
PERIODS
[GRAPHIC] DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS: TOTAL REALIZED
GAINS DISTRIBUTED TO SHAREHOLDERS DURING THE
PERIODS
FUND SHARE TRANSACTIONS: DOLLAR VALUE OF FUND
SHARES PURCHASED, REDEEMED OR REINVESTED
DURING THE PERIODS
The NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS are footnotes to the statements listed above.
These notes include information on accounting methods used by the Fund,
contractual arrangements between the Fund and its service providers, certain
transactions effected by the Fund and other general information about the Fund.
The FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS show, for a single share outstanding throughout each
period presented, the net investment income, the realized and unrealized gains
and losses and the dividends and distributions of the Fund. It also shows key
data and ratios (such as the total investment return for each period), the
portfolio turnover rate for Funds other than money market mutual funds, the
ratio of expenses to average net assets and the ratio of net investment income
to average net assets.

ECONOMIC REVIEW
FROM THE INVESTMENT ADVISER
The 12 months ended February 29, 1996, witnessed a year of surprising strength
in the financial markets. Stock prices rose sharply, with the Dow Jones
Industrial Average surging 38% and other stock market indices posting very
strong gains. The bond market also turned in healthy results, particularly in
the long-term sector, with the bellwether 30-year Treasury bond registering an
18.45% total return.
The stock and bond markets were propelled largely by the Federal Reserve Board's
apparent success at slowing the economy to a sustainable annual growth rate of
around 2% and, at the same time, keeping inflation under control.
FUNDAMENTAL ECONOMIC
STRENGTHS
This favorable combination of modest economic growth and a low-inflation
environment allowed long-term interest rates to decline through most of the
period, spurring gains for both stocks and bonds. In fact, with mounting
evidence of slower economic growth, the Federal Reserve began lowering
short-term rates last summer to help prevent the economy from slowing down too
much.
Meanwhile, corporate profits continued to grow at a solid clip. The major
factors driving earnings included productivity gains and rising exports. In
addition, the U.S. dollar generally was weak, so the overseas profits that many
American companies earned in foreign currencies became more valuable in dollar
terms.
ASSET ALLOCATION KEY
TO PERFORMANCE
For investors, the key investment decision during the period was asset
allocation. The best-performing stock market sectors included financial services
and technology (despite a weak fourth quarter)-- but many other groups also
delivered strong gains.
LOOKING AHEAD
We expect the market environment in 1996 to favor our approach, as investors
look for companies that can produce consistent earnings gains in an economy
growing at a relatively modest 2%-to-3% annual rate. Corporate profits should
continue to grow as companies continue to reap the benefits of productivity
gains made during the past decade. However, earnings aren't likely to rise as
quickly as they did last year.
The economy's pace probably will be slow enough to prevent a sharp rebound in
interest rates, which is good news for both stock and bond investors. But it's
also unlikely that rates will decline sharply from their current levels, which
are high relative to inflation. Thus, stock and bond investors might expect more
modest returns during the coming year than they received in 1995. Still, that
leaves plenty of room for respectable performance.

Q
HOW DID YOU ALLOCATE THE FUND'S ASSETS AMONG STOCKS, BONDS AND CASH DURING
THE RECENT 12 MONTHS?
A
We held about 56% of the Fund's investments in stocks, with 40% in bonds and
4% in cash. That was roughly a neutral position for us, reflecting our belief
that stocks and bonds were fairly valued on a relative basis. For the 12 months
ended February 29, 1996, the Fund had a total return of 22.80% (without the
sales charge) compared to the Fund's benchmarks, the Standard & Poor's 500 Stock
Index and the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Index, which returned 34.60% and 12.24%,
respectively.+
Q
WHAT WAS THE BASIS FOR THAT DECISION?
A
Stock prices climbed sharply during the year, but that increase was
justified by strongly rising corporate earnings and lower bond yields. We also
felt that
8
<PAGE> 119
stocks were a better value than low-yield cash instruments.
Q
WHAT KIND OF STOCKS DID YOU CHOOSE FOR THE PORTFOLIO?
A
We believe that earnings drive stock prices. We look for firms that we think
can deliver strong profit growth over time and try to buy those firms' shares at
reasonable prices. We also make moderate bets on specific sectors of the stock
market -- we emphasize individual stock selection within the sectors.
During the recent period we felt that the economy was going through a temporary
slowdown that would likely last six to nine months before giving way to faster
economic growth. Those views encouraged us to reduce, but not eliminate, our
moderate overweighting in economically sensitive sectors such as capital goods
and technology. Firms such as Alco Standard (1.39% of net assets as of February
29, 1996), General Electric (2.04%), Intel (1.17%) and Emerson Electric (0.76%)
performed well. We believe that they will continue to benefit from faster
economic growth. What's more, they offer significant productivity benefits to
their customers.
We also held shares of large growth companies such as Household International
(1.23%) and Pfizer (0.60%). They performed well as investors sought to buy
stocks of firms that can deliver solid earnings growth even in a slow economic
environment.++
Q
HOW DO YOU MANAGE THE BONDS IN THE PORTFOLIO?
A
The bond portion of the portfolio includes government, corporate and
mortgage securities. Its average duration generally stays close to the average
for the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index. For the past 12 months, that meant
an average duration of 4.5 to 5 years. Since a portfolio's average duration
determines its sensitivity to changes in interest rates, we kept the average
duration of the Fund's bonds pretty much in line with the market as a whole.
Q
LOOKING AHEAD, DO YOU EXPECT TO MAKE SIGNIFICANT CHANGES IN THE FUND'S
PORTFOLIO?
A
It seems likely that the pace of economic growth will increase during the
coming period, while inflation will likely remain low. In that environment,
we'll continue to look for companies that can deliver steady earnings growth in
a variety of conditions -- but also can benefit from an economic expansion. We
expect to continue to hold a relatively stable mix of stocks, bonds and cash in
the near term.

HOW PERFORMANCE COMPARES
The chart compares the Pacific Horizon Asset Allocation Fund to the S&P
500, which is an unmanaged index typically used as a performance benchmark for
equity investments and to the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Index, an unmanaged
index with investment policies similar to the Fund. Hypothetical investments in
the S&P 500 and Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index do not reflect any sales or
management fees that would be incurred if an investor were to actually purchase
individual securities or mutual funds, while the performance of the Fund
reflects all expenses and management fees and the effect of the maximum sales
charge.

The Fund fared well compared to other asset allocation funds. The average of
asset allocation funds as tracked by Lipper Analytical Services, Inc. measures
the performance of other funds with investment objectives and policies similar
to those of the Pacific Horizon Asset Allocation Fund. An initial $10,000
investment in the Fund made on January 31, 1994 would now be worth $12,183,
while the same investment made in the Lipper Flexible Funds Average would be
worth $12,066.
SEE INVESTMENT MANAGER INTERVIEW FOR FACTORS AFFECTING FUND PERFORMANCE.
The adviser and administrator are voluntarily waiving advisory and
administrative fees for the Fund and administrative and advisory fees for the
Master Investment Trust, in which the Fund is wholly invested. The administrator
is also reimbursing all expenses for the Fund. If the adviser and administrator
had not waived fees and reimbursed expenses, total return would have been lower.
This voluntary waiver of fees and reimbursement of expenses may be modified or
terminated at any time, which would reduce the Fund's performance.
Investment return and principal value are historical and will vary with market
conditions, so an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less
than their original cost.
Return figures for the Fund include change in share price, reinvestment of
dividends and capital gains distributions, if any, and the effect of the maximum
4.50% sales charge.

PORTFOLIO COMPOSITION*
A Market-Driven Process
The Fund's adviser seeks to determine relative values among stocks, bonds and
cash equivalents and weights the portfolio accordingly.
The Fund's adviser looks for the following characteristics within each asset
class: Stock holdings that display above-average growth potential and
reasonable valuation. The diversified bond portfolio may contain
mortgage-backed securities as well as fixed-income obligations that are
undervalued in the opinion of the Fund's adviser. The Fund's cash holdings
can be viewed as a defensive position in changing markets.

A BALANCED INVESTMENT APPROACH
Allocation Among Asset Classes
The Fund may be appropriate for
investors seeking long-term growth
from capital appreciation as well as
dividend and interest income through
a balanced approach to investing
SHIFTING THE ASSET MIX using bonds, stocks and cash
equivalents. Investors can make one
[GRAPHIC] simple investment and their money
will be spread over a variety of
asset classes. The Fund's adviser
seeks a total return greater than
bonds or cash with less volatility
than an investment in stocks.
Through strategically allocating
assets among various investments,
the Fund's adviser will shift the
asset mix as market conditions
change, thereby seeking to profit
from market opportunities in any

PACIFIC HORIZON ASSET ALLOCATION FUND
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Notes to Financial Statements
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE 1 -- GENERAL
Pacific Horizon Funds, Inc. (the "Company"), a Maryland corporation, is
registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "Act"), as
an open-end management investment company. At February 29, 1996, the Company
operated as a series company comprising fifteen funds. The accompanying
financial statements and notes are those of the Pacific Horizon Asset Allocation
Fund (the "Fund") only.
The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing
substantially all of its assets in the Asset Allocation Portfolio of Master
Investment Trust, Series I (the "Portfolio"), an open-end management investment
company that has the same investment objective as that of the Fund. The value of
the Fund's investment in the Portfolio included in the accompanying statement of
assets and liabilities reflects the Fund's proportionate beneficial interest in
the net assets of the Portfolio (12.34% as of February 29, 1996). The financial
statements of the Portfolio, including its portfolio of investments, are
included elsewhere within this report and should be read in conjunction with the
Fund's financial statements.
Concord Holding Corporation ("Concord") serves as the Fund's administrator
and Concord Financial Group, Inc. (the "Distributor"), a wholly owned subsidiary
of Concord, serves as the distributor of the Fund's shares. Effective March 29,
1995, Concord became a wholly owned subsidiary of The BISYS Group, Inc.
("BISYS").
NOTE 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 generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of
financial statements in accordance with generally accepted principles requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts
and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from
those estimates.
A) SECURITY VALUATIONS:
The valuation of securities of the Fund's investment in the Portfolio is
discussed in Note 2 of the Portfolio's financial statements.
B) INVESTMENT INCOME, EXPENSES AND REALIZED AND UNREALIZED GAINS AND LOSSES:
The Fund records its share of the investment income, expenses and realized
and unrealized gains and losses recorded by the Portfolio on a daily basis. The
investment income, expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses are
allocated daily to investors in the Portfolio based upon the value of their
investments in the
15
<PAGE> 126
Portfolio. Such investments are adjusted on a daily basis.
C) DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS:
The Fund declares dividends to shareholders of record on the day of
declaration from net investment income. Such dividends are paid quarterly.
However, to the extent that net realized gains of the Fund can be offset by
capital loss carryovers, such gains will not be distributed. Dividends and
distributors are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
The amounts of dividends from net investment income and of distributions
from net realized gains are determined in accordance with federal income tax
regulations which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles.
These "book/tax" differences are either considered temporary or permanent in
nature. To the extent these differences are permanent in nature, such amounts
are reclassified within the composition of net assets based on their federal
tax-basis treatment; temporary differences do not require reclassification.
Dividends and distributions to shareholders which exceed net investment income
and net realized capital gains for financial reporting purposes but not for tax
purposes are reported as dividends in excess of net investment income or
distributions in excess of net realized gains. To the extent they exceed net
investment income and net realized gains for tax purposes, they are reported as
distributions of capital.
D) FEDERAL INCOME TAXES:
It is the policy of the Fund to meet the requirements of the Internal
Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute
substantially all of its taxable income to shareholders. Therefore, no federal
income tax provision is required.
E) OTHER:
The Fund incurred certain costs in connection with its organization. Such
costs have been deferred and are being amortized on a straight line basis over
five years.
Expenses directly attributable to the Fund are charged directly to the Fund,
while Company expenses attributable to more than one Fund of the Company are
allocated among the respective funds.
NOTE 3 -- AGREEMENTS AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
The Fund has an Administration Agreement with Concord and a Distribution
Agreement with the Distributor.
As Administrator, Concord assists in supervising the operations of the Fund.
For its services Concord is entitled to a fee from the Fund, which is accrued
daily and payable monthly, at an annual rate of 0.15% of the Fund's average net
assets. For the year ended February 29, 1996 Concord agreed to waive its entire
fee as Administrator. For the same period, Concord agreed to reimburse the Fund
$192,545 of its operating expenses.
16
<PAGE> 127
For the year ended February 29, 1996, the Distributor advised the Fund that
it retained $69,818 from commissions earned on sales of the Fund's shares. For
the same period, Bank of America and its affiliates advised the Fund that they
retained $569,332 from commissions earned on sales of the Fund's shares.
The Fund has adopted a Shareholder Service Plan (the "Plan") under which the
Fund pays the Distributor for shareholder servicing expenses incurred in
connection with shares of the Fund. Under the Plan, payments by the Fund may not
exceed 0.25% (annualized) of the Fund's average daily net assets. For the year
ended February 29, 1996, the Distributor waived all of its shareholder service
fees due from the Fund. The Plan provides that if, in any month, the fees paid
to the Distributor are less than the costs incurred by the Distributor, the
excess costs will be included in future computations of the fee, provided that
any excess costs will not be carried forward beyond the end of the fiscal year
in which such excess costs were incurred. Effective December 11, 1995, BISYS
Fund Services, Inc., also a wholly owned subsidiary, served the Fund as transfer
agent and dividend disbursing agent. In this capacity, BISYS Fund Services, Inc.
earned $8,804 for the period from December 11, 1995 through February 1996. Prior
to December 11, 1995 an unrelated party provided these services.
For the year ended February 29, 1996, the Fund incurred legal charges
totaling $46,277 which were earned by a law firm, a partner of which serves as
Secretary of the Company. Certain officers of the Company are "affiliated
persons" (as defined in the Act) of BISYS.
NOTE 4 -- DIRECTORS' COMPENSATION
Each director of the Company is entitled to an annual retainer of $25,000,
plus $1,000 for each day the director participates in all or part of a Board or
Committee meeting and the Chairman of each Committee receives a retainer of
$1,000 for services as Chairman of the Committee. In addition, the Company's
President is entitled to an annual salary of $20,000 for services as President.
The former president and chairman of the Company receives an additional $40,000
per year through February 28, 1997 in consideration of his years of services.
The Board has also established a retirement plan (the "Retirement Plan") for
the Directors. The Retirement Plan provides that each Director who dies or
resigns after five years of service as a director will be entitled to receive
ten annual payments each equal to the greater of: (i) 50% of the annual
Director's retainer that was payable during the year of that director's death or
resignation, or (ii) 50% of the annual Director's retainer then in effect for
Directors of the Company during the year of such payment. A Director who dies or
resigns after nine years of service as a director will be entitled to receive
ten annual payments equal to the greater of: (i) 100% of the annual Director's
retainer that was payable during the year of that Director's death or
resignation, or (ii) 100% of the annual Director's retainer then in effect for
Directors of the Fund during the year of such payment. In addi-
17
<PAGE> 128
tion, the amount payable each year to a Director who dies or resigns shall be
increased by $1,000 for each year of service that the Director served as
Chairman of the Board. Each Director may receive any benefits payable under the
Retirement Plan, at his or her election, either in one lump sum payment or ten
annual installments. A Director's years of service for the purpose of
calculating the payments described above shall be based upon service as a
Director or Chairman after February 28, 1994. Aggregate costs pursuant to the

29, 1996, the results of its operations for the year then ended, and the changes
in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and the
financial highlights for each of the periods presented, in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles. These financial statements and
financial highlights (hereafter referred to as "financial statements") are the
responsibility of the Funds' management; our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our
audits of these financial statements in accordance with generally accepted
auditing standards which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material

MASTER INVESTMENT TRUST, SERIES I --
ASSET ALLOCATION PORTFOLIO
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Notes to Financial Statements
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE 1 -- GENERAL
Master Investment Trust, Series I (the "Trust"), a Delaware business trust,
is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "Act")
as an open-end management investment company. At February 29, 1996, the Trust
consisted of four portfolios. The accompanying financial statements and notes
are those of the Asset Allocation Portfolio (the "Portfolio") only.
The investment objective of the Portfolio is to obtain long term growth from
capital appreciation and dividend and interest income. The Portfolio seeks to
achieve its objective by actively allocating investments among the three major
asset categories: bonds, equity securities and cash equivalents.
Bank of America National Trust and Savings Association ("Bank of America"),
a wholly owned subsidiary of BankAmerica Corporation, serves as the Portfolio's
investment adviser.
Concord Holding Corporation ("Concord") serves as the Portfolio's
administrator through BISYS Fund Services (Ireland) Ltd., a wholly owned
subsidiary of Concord. Effective March 29, 1995, Concord became a wholly owned
subsidiary of The BISYS Group, Inc. ("BISYS").
NOTE 2 -- SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by
the Portfolio in the preparation of its financial statements. The policies are
in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of
financial statements in accordance with generally accepted principles requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts
and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from
those estimates.
A) SECURITY VALUATIONS:
Portfolio securities for which market quotations are readily available
(other than debt securities with remaining maturities of 60 days or less) are
valued at the last reported sales price on the date of valuation or, if none is
available, at the mean between the current quoted bid and asked prices on the
date of valuation. Securities that are primarily traded on the NASDAQ national
securities market are valued at the last reported sales price on the date of
valuation or, if none is available, at the last quoted bid price on the date of
valuation. The Portfolio may use an independent pricing service, approved by the
Board of Trustees, to value certain of its securities. Such prices reflect
market values which may be established through the use of electronic data
processing techniques and matrix systems. Restricted securities and securities
for which market quotations are not readily available, if any, are valued at
fair value using methods approved by the Board of Trustees. Debt securities with
remaining maturities of 60 days or less are valued at amortized cost, which
approximates market value. The amortized cost
30
<PAGE> 141
method involves valuing a security at its cost on the date of purchase or, in
the case of securities purchased with more than 60 days until maturity, at their
market value each day until the 61st day prior to maturity, and thereafter
assuming a constant amortization to maturity of the difference between the
principal amount due at maturity and such valuation.
B) SECURITIES TRANSACTIONS AND INVESTMENT INCOME:
Securities transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Realized
gains and losses on securities transactions are determined on the identified
cost basis. Interest income, including accretion of discount and amortization of
premium, is accrued daily. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date.
C) EXPENSES:
Expenses directly attributable to the Portfolio are charged to the Portfolio
while Trust expenses attributable to more than one portfolio of the Trust and
general Trust expenses are allocated among the respective portfolios of the
Trust.
D) FEDERAL INCOME TAXES:
The Portfolio will be treated as a partnership for federal income tax
purposes. As such, each investor in the Portfolio will be taxed on their share
of the Portfolio's ordinary income and capital gains. It is intended that the
Portfolio will be managed in such a way that an investor will be able to satisfy
the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment
companies.
NOTE 3 -- AGREEMENTS AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
The Portfolio has an Advisory Agreement with Bank of America and an
Administration Agreement with Concord.
As Adviser, Bank of America is responsible for managing the investment of
the assets of the Portfolio in conformity with the stated objectives and
policies of the Portfolio. For its services, Bank of America is entitled to a
fee, accrued daily and paid monthly, at an annual rate of 0.55% of the average
daily net assets of the Portfolio. For the year ended February 29, 1996, Bank of
America waived $720,259 in fees as Adviser of the Portfolio.
As Administrator, Concord assists in supervising the operations of the
Portfolio. For its services, Concord is entitled to a fee, accrued daily and
payable monthly, at an annual rate of 0.05% of the Portfolio's average daily net
assets. For the year ended February 29, 1996, Concord waived $65,491 in fees as
Administrator of the Portfolio.
For services provided to all four of the portfolios constituting the Trust,
each Trustee receives an annual fee of $1,500 and a meeting fee of $500. For the
year ended February 29, 1996, the Portfolio incurred legal expenses of $17,976,
which were earned by a law firm, a partner of which serves as Secretary of the
Trust. Certain officers of the Trust are "affiliated persons" (as defined in the
Act) of BISYS.

reporting purposes. Accordingly, Net unrealized appreciation of investments
amounted to $15,964,735, consisting of gross unrealized appreciation of
$18,488,396 and gross unrealized depreciation of $2,523,661.

To the Trustees
and Investors of
Master Investment Trust, Series I
In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including
the portfolio of investments, and the related statements of operations and of
changes in net assets and the supplementary data present fairly, in all material
respects, the financial position of Master Investment Trust, Series I -- Asset
Allocation Portfolio (the "Portfolio") at February 29, 1996, the results of its
operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of
the two years in the period then ended and its supplementary data for each of
the periods presented, in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles. These financial statements and supplementary data (hereafter
referred to as "financial statements") are the responsibility of the Portfolio's
management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial
statements in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards which
require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about
whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit
includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and
disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles
used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included
confirmation of securities at February 29, 1996 by correspondence with the
custodian and brokers and the application of alternative auditing procedures
where confirmations were not received, provide a reasonable basis for the
opinion expressed above.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR SHAREHOLDER REPORT
As a mutual fund shareholder, you receive two financial reports a year that
contain important information about your investment. The financial statements
and financial highlights included in annual reports are audited by an
independent public accounting firm and cover the activity for the past fiscal
year. The independent public accountant provides an opinion letter in each
audited report. A semi-annual report is a six-month interim report that includes
financial statements that are generally not audited by an independent public
accounting firm.
This guide will help you extract the information from
the report.
The TABLE OF CONTENTS helps
you locate the information you
want.
The ECONOMIC REVIEW FROM THE
INVESTMENT ADVISER provides a
brief overview of the economy
and how it affects the
financial markets.
The INTERVIEW WITH YOUR [GRAPHIC]
INVESTMENT MANAGER enables you
to gain insight into the Fund
investments and learn more
about the Fund manager's
strategies.
Because a picture or chart can
help clarify the text, the
investment manager may have
illustrated the most important
features of the Fund. The
illustra-
tions may represent the portfolio composition, the
largest holdings or a simplification of the investment
manager's investment style.
In annual reports, mutual funds, which are not "money
market" funds, are required by the Securities and
Exchange Commission (SEC) to provide shareholders with
[GRAPHIC] a comparison of a hypothetical $10,000 investment in
the Fund to a benchmark of the broader market. The
performance of the benchmark index depicts the
aggregate performance of investments similar to those
in the Fund for the same time period. While the
benchmark index provides a general representation of
the market, there are two
reasons
why
it should be used only as a
guide. First, the Fund, in its
prospectus, must clearly define
which investments can be made by
the Fund. The index does not [GRAPHIC]
necessarily have the same
limitations. Second, the index
does not reflect any expenses
that accompany a real investment,
such as
4
<PAGE> 153
sales charges, management fees, portfolio transaction costs or the cash reserves
required to provide daily liquidity. The performance of the Fund must show these
costs as well as any front-end or deferred sales charges.
The financial statements summarize and describe the Fund's financial
transactions. They are broken down into four different statements, which are
illustrated below:
The PORTFOLIO OF INVESTMENTS lists each investment holding in the Fund as of the
date of the report. Investments may be grouped by category (by industry or
security type, for example). The percentage of the Fund's net assets represented
by these groupings is also disclosed.

INDUSTRY SECTOR AND PERCENTAGE OF THE FUND'S
[GRAPHIC] NET ASSETS REPRESENTED BY INVESTMENTS IN THAT
SECTOR (IF APPLICABLE)
ACTUAL PORTFOLIO HOLDINGS WITH SHARES AND
MARKET VALUE AS OF REPORT DATE
The STATEMENT OF ASSETS AND LIABILITIES lists all the assets and liabilities of
the Fund as of the date of the statement. This is an individual fund's "balance
sheet." Also disclosed in this statement are the Fund's net asset value per
share and its maximum offering price per share as of the date of the statement.
The statement also lists the accounts that comprise the Fund's
net assets (capital stock, undistributed
income, etc.).

The NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS are footnotes to the statements listed above.
These notes include information on accounting methods used by the Fund,
contractual arrangements between the Fund and its service providers, certain
transactions effected by the Fund and other general information about the Fund.
The FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS show, for a single share outstanding throughout each
period presented, the net investment income, the realized and unrealized gains
and losses and the dividends and distributions of the Fund. It also shows key
data and ratios (such as the total investment return for each period), the
portfolio turnover rate for Funds other than money market mutual funds, the
ratio of expenses to average net assets and the ratio of net investment income
to average net assets.

ECONOMIC REVIEW
FROM THE INVESTMENT ADVISER
The 12 months ended February 29, 1996, witnessed a year of surprising strength
in the financial markets. Stock prices rose sharply, with the Dow Jones
Industrial Average surging 38% and other stock market indices posting very
strong gains. The bond market also turned in healthy results, particularly in
the long-term sector, with the bellwether 30-year Treasury bond registering an
18.45% total return.
The stock and bond markets were propelled largely by the Federal Reserve Board's
apparent success at slowing the economy to a sustainable annual growth rate of
around 2% and, at the same time, keeping inflation under control.
FUNDAMENTAL ECONOMIC
STRENGTHS
This favorable combination of modest economic growth and a low-inflation
environment allowed long-term interest rates to decline through most of the
period, spurring gains for both stocks and bonds. In fact, with mounting
evidence of slower economic growth, the Federal Reserve began lowering
short-term rates last summer to help prevent the economy from slowing down too
much.
Meanwhile, corporate profits continued to grow at a solid clip. The major
factors driving earnings included productivity gains and rising exports. In
addition, the U.S. dollar generally was weak, so the overseas profits that many
American companies earned in foreign currencies became more valuable in dollar
terms.
ASSET ALLOCATION KEY
TO PERFORMANCE
For investors, the key investment decision during the period was asset
allocation. The best-performing stock market sectors included financial services
and technology (despite a weak fourth quarter) -- but many other groups also
delivered strong gains.
LOOKING AHEAD
We expect the market environment in 1996 to favor our approach, as investors
look for companies that can produce consistent earnings gains in an economy
growing at a relatively modest 2%-to-3% annual rate. Corporate profits should
continue to grow as companies continue to reap the benefits of productivity
gains made during the past decade. However, earnings aren't likely to rise as
quickly as they did last year.
The economy's pace probably will be slow enough to prevent a sharp rebound in
interest rates, which is good news for both stock and bond investors. But it's
also unlikely that rates will decline sharply from their current levels, which
are high relative to inflation. Thus, stock and bond investors might expect more
modest returns during the coming year than they received in 1995. Still, that
leaves plenty of room for respectable performance.

PACIFIC HORIZON
CAPITAL INCOME FUND
[PHOTO]
ED CASSENS, CFA
Portfolio Manager
B of A Capital Management, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Bank of America.
GOAL:
The Pacific Horizon Capital Income Fund seeks total investment return through a
combination of current income and capital appreciation consistent with prudent
risk.
INVESTMENTS:
The Fund invests primarily in convertible bonds and convertible preferred stocks
of domestic issuers.
APPROPRIATE FOR:
Investors seeking a competitive return over the long term comprised of current
income and capital appreciation.
INCEPTION:
September 25, 1987
SIZE OF FUND AS OF
FEBRUARY 29, 1996:
Over $246 million
Q
HOW DID CONVERTIBLE SECURITIES FARE DURING THE PAST 12 MONTHS?
A
The period provided a very favorable environment for convertible bonds and
convertible preferred stocks, which are the Fund's primary holdings.
Convertibles offer a unique combination of attributes. Typically, they pay
higher yields than
common stocks; thus, like other income-
oriented investments, they benefited from falling interest rates during the past
12 months. In addition, convertibles typically share in gains of their issuers'
common stocks to some extent, so the surge in stock prices also was good news
for most convertible investors.
Q
HOW DID THE FUND FARE IN THAT ENVIRONMENT?
A
Very well, thanks partly to some moves we made in the portfolio. For
example, early in the period we reduced our holdings of convertibles issued by
companies in the basic industry and capital goods sectors. We figured that those
sectors would suffer as the economy's growth rate slowed, and that is what
happened. As a result, the Fund had a total return of 25.96% (without the sales
charge) for the 12 months ended February 29, 1996, compared to 25.91% for its
new benchmark, the First Boston Convertible Index.+
Q
WHERE DID YOU INVEST THAT
MONEY?
A
We invested heavily in several areas, including health care and financial
services -- two industries that are experiencing consolidation in the form of
mergers and other deals. Since many health-care companies don't issue
convertibles, we bought common stock of firms such as Pharmacia & Upjohn, Inc.,
a company that was formed through the merger of the two predecessor companies,
(1.36% of net
8
<PAGE> 157
assets as of February 29, 1996), Schering-Plough (1.07%) and Warner-Lambert
(1.04%). The other two firms are potential merger candidates as well. Meanwhile,
such companies can provide stable earnings growth in a slow economy, which
should attract investors.
Among financial service companies, we owned shares of First Interstate Bank,
(1.66%) which was acquired by Wells Fargo after the Fund's fiscal year end. We
also held convertibles during the period issued by First Chicago (0.74%), which
combined with National Bank of Detroit.++
Q
DID YOU HOLD TECHNOLOGY
CONVERTIBLES?
A
We cut back the technology sector around the middle of 1995 because we felt
that the economic slowdown would hurt those firms' growth rates. Our action was
well-timed. The technology sector stumbled soon after we made the move.
Q
WHAT IS YOUR STRATEGY GOING FORWARD?
A
Many older convertibles have been called by their issuers. As a result, lots
of money is chasing a smaller number of convertibles and driving their prices
higher. That said, the Fund will continue to focus on finding good values among
convertibles of companies that have solid earnings prospects. We'll also look to
invest the Fund's assets in securities issued by firms that might benefit from
some corporate action such as a merger or restructuring.

HOW PERFORMANCE COMPARES
With this annual report, we are changing the Fund's benchmark from the S&P 500
Index to the CS First Boston Index, which is widely used as a broad measure of
the performance of convertible securities. As such, we believe it is a more
appropriate benchmark for this Fund. In order to complete the transition to the
new benchmark, we are providing a hypothetical comparison of the Fund's
performance since September 30, 1987 with both its former benchmark and its new
benchmark, the CS First Boston Index. The hypothetical investments in the CS
First Boston Index and the S&P 500 Index do not reflect any sales or management
fees that would be incurred if an investor were to actually purchase individual
securities or mutual funds, while the performance of the Fund reflects all
expenses and management fees and the effect of the maximum sales charge.

The Fund fared relatively well compared to other convertible security funds. The
average of convertible security funds as tracked by Lipper Analytical Services,
Inc. measures the performance of other funds with investment objectives and
policies similar to those of the Pacific Horizon Capital Income Fund. An initial
$10,000 investment in the Fund made on September 30, 1987 would now be worth
$29,702, while the same investment made in the Lipper Convertible Securities
Funds Average would be worth only $22,026.

Investment return and principal value are historical and will vary with market
conditions, so an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less
than their original cost.
Return figures for the fund include change in share price, reinvestment of
dividends and capital gains distributions, if any, and the effect of the maximum
4.50% sales charge.

PACIFIC HORIZON CAPITAL INCOME FUND
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Notes to Financial Statements
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE 1 -- GENERAL
Pacific Horizon Funds, Inc. (the "Fund"), a Maryland corporation, is
registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "Act"), as
an open-end management investment company. At February 29, 1996, the Fund
operated as a series company comprising fifteen portfolios. The accompanying
financial statements and notes are those of the Pacific Horizon Capital Income
Fund (the "Portfolio") only. The Portfolio seeks to provide investors with a
total investment return, comprised of current income and capital appreciation,
consistent with prudent investment risk. The Portfolio does so by investing in a
diversified portfolio consisting principally of convertible bonds and
convertible preferred stocks of domestic issuers.
Bank of America National Trust and Savings Association ("Bank of America"),
a subsidiary of BankAmerica Corporation, serves as the Fund's investment
adviser. Concord Holding Corporation ("Concord") serves as the Fund's
administrator and Concord Financial Group, Inc. (the "Distributor"), a wholly
owned subsidiary of Concord, serves as the distributor of the Fund's shares.
Effective March 29, 1995, Concord became a wholly owned subsidiary of The BISYS
Group, Inc. ("BISYS").
NOTE 2 -- SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by
the Portfolio in the preparation of its financial statements. The policies are
in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of
financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts and disclosures. Actual results could differ from
those estimates.
A) PORTFOLIO VALUATIONS:
Portfolio securities for which market quotations are readily available
(other than debt securities with remaining maturities of 60 days or less) are
valued at the last reported sale price on the date of valuation or (if none is
available) at the mean between the current quoted bid and asked prices on the
date of valuation as provided by investment dealers.
Debt securities with remaining maturities of 60 days or less are valued at
amortized cost, which approximates market value. The amortized cost method
involves valuing a security at its cost on the date of purchase or, in the case
of securities purchased with more than 60 days to maturity, at their market
value each day until the 61st day prior to maturity, and thereafter assuming a
constant amortization to maturity of the difference between principal amount due
at maturity and such valuation.
20
<PAGE> 169
B) SECURITIES TRANSACTIONS AND INVESTMENT INCOME:
Securities transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Realized gains
and losses from securities transactions are recorded on the identified cost
basis. Interest income, including amortization of premiums and accretion of
discounts, is accrued daily. Dividend income is recognized on the ex-dividend
date.
C) DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS:
The Portfolio's net investment income is declared as a dividend, quarterly,
to shareholders of record at the close of business day on record date. Net
realized gains on portfolio securities, if any, will be distributed at least
annually. However, to the extent that net realized gains of the Portfolio can be
offset by capital loss carryovers of the Portfolio, such gains will not be
distributed. Dividends and distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
The amounts of dividends from net investment income and of distributions
from net realized gains are determined in accordance with federal income tax
regulations which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles.
These "book/tax" differences are either considered temporary or permanent in
nature. To the extent these differences are permanent in nature, such amounts
are reclassified within the composition of net assets based on their federal
tax-basis treatment; temporary differences do not require reclassification.
Dividends and distributions to shareholders which exceed net investment income
and net realized capital gains for financial reporting purposes but not for tax
purposes are reported as dividends in excess of net investment income or
distributions in excess of net realized gains. To the extent they exceed net
investment income and net realized gains for tax purposes, they are reported as
distributions of capital.
D) FEDERAL INCOME TAXES:
It is the policy of the Portfolio to meet the requirements of the Internal
Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute
substantially all of its taxable income to shareholders. Therefore, no federal
income tax provision is required.
At February 29, 1996, the portfolio had capital loss carryovers of
approximately $2,300,000 and $600,000, respectively, which will expire in fiscal
2003 and 2004, respectively. To the extent provided by regulations in the Code,
these capital loss carryovers will be used to offset future net realized gains
on security transactions. As such, it is probable that the gains so offset will
not be distributed to shareholders. Capital losses incurred after October 31,
1995 and within the fiscal year are deemed to arise on the first business day of
the following fiscal year. The Portfolio incurred and elected to defer such
losses of approximately $500,000.
E) OTHER:
The Fund accounts separately for the assets, liabilities and operations of
each portfolio. Expenses directly attributable to the Portfolio are charged to
the Portfolio, while expenses which are attributable to more than one portfolio
of the Fund are allocated among the respective portfolios.
21
<PAGE> 170
The Portfolio maintains a cash balance with its custodian and receives a
reduction of its custody fees and expenses for the amount of interest earned on
such uninvested cash balances. For financial reporting purposes for the year
ended February 29, 1996, custodian fees and expenses and expenses paid by third
parties were increased by $69,758. There was no effect on net investment income.
The Portfolio could have invested such cash amounts in an income producing asset
if it had not agreed to a reduction of fees or expenses under the expense offset
arrangement with its custodian.
NOTE 3 -- AGREEMENTS AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
The Portfolio has an Investment Advisory Agreement with Bank of America, an
Administration Agreement with Concord and a Distribution Agreement with the
Distributor. Pursuant to the terms of the Investment Advisory Agreement, Bank of
America is entitled to a fee from the Portfolio, which is accrued daily and
payable monthly, at an annual rate of 0.45% of the Portfolio's average net
assets. Pursuant to the terms of the Administration Agreement, Concord is
entitled to a fee which is accrued daily and payable monthly, at an annual rate
of 0.20% of the Portfolio's average net assets.
The Investment Advisory and Administration Agreements provide that if, in
any fiscal year, the operating expenses of the Portfolio (generally excluding
interest, taxes, brokerage commissions and extraordinary expenses) exceed the
most restrictive expense limitation of any state having jurisdiction over the
Portfolio, then Bank of America and Concord will reimburse the Portfolio for any
such excess expenses. At February 29, 1996, the most restrictive expense
limitation is believed to limit expenses to 2.5% of the first $30 million of the
Portfolio's average daily net assets, plus 2.0% of the next $70 million of such
assets, plus 1.5% of such assets in excess of $100 million. These agreements
provide that such reimbursements will be estimated and paid on a monthly basis.
No reimbursement was required for the year ended February 29, 1996.
For the year ended February 29, 1996, the Distributor advised the Portfolio
that it retained $202,102 from commissions earned on sales of the Portfolio's
shares. For the same period, Bank of America and its affiliates advised the
Portfolio that they retained $1,493,113 from commissions earned on sales of the
Portfolio's shares.
The Portfolio has a Shareholder Services Plan (the "Plan") under which the
Portfolio pays for shareholder servicing expenses related to shares of the
Portfolio. Under the Plan, payments by the Portfolio for shareholder servicing
expenses may not exceed 0.25% (annualized) of the Portfolio's average daily net
assets. For the year ended February 29, 1996, the Portfolio incurred charges of
$551,305 pursuant to the Plan. The Portfolio was advised that of this amount,
the Distributor retained $64,707 and affiliates of Bank of America retained
$483,153. The Plan provides that if, in any month, the fees paid to the
Distributor are less than the costs incurred by the Distributor, the excess
costs will be included in future computa-
22
<PAGE> 171
tions of the fee, provided that any excess cost will not be carried forward
beyond the end of the fiscal year in which such excess costs were incurred.
Effective December 11, 1995, BISYS Fund Services, Inc., also a wholly owned
subsidiary of BISYS, serves the Fund as transfer agent and dividend disbursing
agent. In this capacity, BISYS Fund Services, Inc. earned $109,656 for the
period from December 11, 1995 through February 29, 1996. Prior to December 11,
1995, an unrelated party provided these services.
For the year ended February 29, 1996, the Portfolio incurred legal charges
totaling $50,936 which were earned by a law firm, a partner which serves as
Secretary of the Fund. Certain officers of the Fund are "affiliated persons" (as
defined in the Act) of BISYS.
NOTE 4 -- DIRECTORS' COMPENSATION
Each Director of the Fund is entitled to an annual retainer of $25,000 plus
$1,000 for each day the director participates in all or part of a Board or
Committee meeting, and the Chairman of each Committee receives an annual
retainer of $1,000 for services as Chairman of the Committee. In addition, the
Fund's President is entitled to an annual salary of $20,000 for services as
President. The former President and Chairman of the Fund receives an additional
$40,000 per year through February 28, 1997 in consideration for his years of
service. Total charges for directors' fees incurred for the year ended February
29, 1996 by the Portfolio were $10,810.
The Board has also established a retirement plan (the "Retirement Plan") for
the Directors. The Retirement Plan provides that each Director who dies or
resigns after five years of service as a director will be entitled to receive
ten annual payments each equal to the greater of: (i) 50% of the annual
Director's retainer that was payable during the year of that director's death or
resignation, or (ii) 50% of the annual Director's retainer then in effect for
Directors of the Fund during the year of such payment. A Director who dies or
resigns after nine years of service as a director will be entitled to receive
ten annual payments equal to the greater of: (i) 100% of the annual Director's
retainer that was payable during the year of that Director's death or
resignation, or (ii) 100% of the annual Director's retainer then in effect for
Directors of the Fund during the year of such payment. In addition, the amount
payable each year to a Director who dies or resigns shall be increased by $1,000
for each year of service that the Director served as Chairman of the Board. Each
Director may receive any benefits payable under the Retirement Plan, at his or
her election, either in one lump sum payment or ten annual installments. A
Director's years of service for the purpose of calculating the payments
described above shall be based upon service as a Director or Chairman after
February 28, 1994. Aggregate costs to the Portfolio pursuant to the Retirement
Plan amounted to $1,821 for the year ended February 29, 1996.
23
<PAGE> 172
NOTE 5 -- PURCHASES AND SALES OF SECURITIES

Report of Independent Accountants
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
To the Board of Directors
and Shareholders of
Pacific Horizon Funds, Inc.
In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including
the portfolio of investments, and the related statements of operations and of
changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of the Pacific Horizon Capital Income
Fund (one of the portfolios constituting Pacific Horizon Funds, Inc., hereafter
referred to as the "Funds") at February 29, 1996, the results of its operations
for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years
in the period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the periods
presented, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. These
financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as
"financial statements") are the responsibility of the Funds' management; our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance
with generally accepted auditing standards which require that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at
February 29, 1996 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers and the
application of alternative auditing procedures where confirmations from brokers
were not received, provide a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above.
