U.S. TREASURY RESERVES PORTFOLIO
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

1.  SIGNIFICANT  ACCOUNTING  POLICIES  U.S.  Treasury  Reserves  Portfolio  (the
"Portfolio") is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended,
as a no-load,  diversified,  open-end  management  investment  company which was
organized as a trust under the laws of the State of New York. The Declaration of
Trust  permits the  Trustees to issue  beneficial  interests  in the  Portfolio.
CFBDS,  Inc  ("CFBDS"),  acts as the  Portfolio's  Administrator.  Citibank N.A.
("Citibank")  acts  as  the  Investment  Adviser.  Citibank  is  a  wholly-owned
subsidiary of Citigroup Inc. Citigroup Inc. was formed as a result of the merger
of Citicorp and Travelers Group, Inc.
which was completed on October 8, 1998.
   The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted
accounting 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.
   The significant  accounting policies  consistently  followed by the Portfolio
are as follows:
   A. Valuation of Investments Money market  instruments are valued at amortized
cost,  which the Trustees have determined in good faith  constitutes fair value.
The Portfolio's  use of amortized cost is subject to the Portfolio's  compliance
with certain  conditions as specified under Rule 2a-7 of the Investment  Company
Act of 1940.
   B.  Investment  Income and Expenses  Investment  income  consists of interest
accrued and discount earned (including both original issue and market discount),
adjusted for  amortization  of premium,  on the  investments  of the  Portfolio,
accrued  ratably to the date of  maturity,  plus or minus net  realized  gain or
loss, if any, on investments. Expenses of the Portfolio are accrued daily.
   C.  Federal  Income  Taxes  The  Portfolio's  policy  is to  comply  with the
applicable  provisions of the Internal Revenue Code.  Accordingly,  no provision
for federal income taxes is necessary.
   D. Fees Paid  Indirectly The  Portfolio's  custodian bank calculates its fees
based on the Portfolio's  average daily net assets. The fee is reduced according
to a fee  arrangement,  which provides for custody fees to be reduced based on a
formula  developed to measure the value of cash  deposited with the custodian by
the Portfolio.  This amount is shown as a reduction of expenses on the Statement
of Operations.
   E. Other  Purchases,  maturities  and sales of money market  instruments  are
accounted for on the date of the transaction.

2. INVESTMENT ADVISORY FEES AND ADMINISTRATIVE FEES
   A. Investment Advisory Fee The Investment advisory fees paid to Citibank,  as
compensation for overall investment  management services,  amounted to $670,137,
of which $376,467 was  voluntarily  waived for the six months ended February 28,
1999.

                                                                              15

U.S. TREASURY RESERVES PORTFOLIO
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (Continued)


   The  investment  advisory  fee is  computed at an annual rate of 0.15% of the
Portfolio's average daily net assets.
   B.  Administrative  Fees  Under  the  terms  of  an  Administrative  Services
Agreement, the administrative fee paid to the Administrator, as compensation for
overall administrative services and general office facilities,  is accrued daily
and paid monthly at the annual rate of 0.05% of the  Portfolio's  average  daily
net assets.  The  Administrative  fees  amounted to  $223,379,  all of which was
voluntarily  waived for the six months ended  February 28, 1999.  The  Portfolio
pays no  compensation  directly to any Trustee or any officer who is  affiliated
with the Administrator,  all of whom receive  remuneration for their services to
the Portfolio from the Administrator or its affiliates.  Certain of the officers
and a Trustee of the Portfolio are officers and a director of the  Administrator
or its affiliates.

3.  INVESTMENT  TRANSACTIONS  Purchases,  maturities and sales of U.S.  Treasury
obligations, aggregated $3,364,633,995 and $3,459,888,089, respectively, for the
six months ended February 28, 1999.

4. LINE OF CREDIT The  Portfolio,  along with other  CitiFunds,  entered into an
agreement  with a bank which allows the Funds  collectively  to borrow up to $60
million for temporary or emergency purposes.  Interest on borrowings, if any, is
charged to the specific  fund  executing  the  borrowing at the base rate of the
bank. The line of credit requires a quarterly  payment of a commitment fee based
on the average  daily unused  portion of the line of credit.  For the six months
ended  February 28, 1999,  the  commitment  fee  allocated to the  Portfolio was
$1,248. Since the line of credit was established, there have been no borrowings.
