SHAREHOLDERS LETTER
 
To Our Shareholders:
 
  The six month period ending August 31, 1998 continued to demonstrate funda-
mental strengths in both the domestic equity and bond markets, although in-
creased volatility in recent months has raised concerns that certain supports
of the bull market are faltering.
 
  The dramatic rise in equity prices over the past three-and-one-half years
can be attributed largely to strong and stable corporate earnings growth capi-
talized at higher valuations because of the drop in bond yields. Earnings, as
measured by the Standard & Poor's 500 Index, have grown every year since 1991
and are projected to rise this year and next. This consistent earnings pattern
is more highly valued by investors than is a period of faster gains followed
by a sharp decline in earnings. In addition to a steady earnings pattern, the
strong growth rate for earnings as measured by the Standard & Poor's 500 Index
has been 14% over the past five years, as compared with a long-run average of
just over 6%
 
  Key trends for the period currently support the following views:
 
  .  Economic growth is expected to resume following a mid-year lull.
 
  .  The strong demand for equities and the positive interest rate
     environment will continue to support stocks, even though earnings
     growth is slowing, and is likely to result in a volatile market near-
     term.
 
  .  U.S. Bonds remain an attractive investment, as solid U.S. real yields
     compare favorably with those of other industrialized countries.
 
  .  Reduction in supply should support Treasury prices.
 
  .  Lower interest rate levels continue to cushion equity corrections.
 
  As market volatility increases, it is important for investors to remember
their long-term investment goals when making investment decisions. While one
sector may look more appealing than others due to recent performance, it is
essential to understand that past performance is not a predictor of future re-
turns. As market conditions change, you should maintain your long-term invest-
ment strategy if it continues to be appropriate. A hallmark of successful in-
vestors is that they stay focused on their personal financial goals and do not
change investment strategies solely on the basis of short-term market swings.
 
  The Stagecoach LifePath Funds are conceived and managed to be a straight-
forward and cost-effective way to manage your long-term investment goals. We
hope we have been able to fulfil your expectations and that we will continue
to do so in the future. We appreciate your trust and look forward to helping
you manage your investment goals.

    MARKET OVERVIEW
 
MARKET OVERVIEW: SIX-MONTH PERIOD ENDING AUGUST 31, 1998
 
U.S. EQUITY MARKETS
 
  Equity markets around the globe faced strong turbulence during the second
quarter of 1998. The U.S. was no exception and ended the second quarter with
the Dow Jones Industrial Average down 512.61. This came after the year opened
on a bright note with the DJIA cracking the 9000 barrier and reaching a peak on
May 13. The Russell 2000 peaked on April 22 and the S&P 500 hit a new record
high at the end of June.
 
  The drop in stock prices during July and August was directly related to fears
that Asia's deepening recession would negatively affect corporate earnings.
This was reminiscent of the drop in stock prices last fall when the first wave
of the Asian crisis rippled through the world's equity markets. Investors and
analysts were forced to lower their earnings forecasts for the fourth quarter
of last year and the first quarter of 1998. This more recent wave of bad news
from Asia forced downward revisions to second quarter earnings forecasts and
called into question the outlook for earnings during the second half of the
year.
 
  Concerns over Asia's continued economic malaise, along with new concerns
about the viability of the Russian economy, came on top of growing fears of
lackluster earnings from corporate America. Fears of mediocre earnings
performance are based on rising labor costs, lack of stable pricing and the
strong U.S. dollar. A strong U.S. dollar typically lowers sales abroad and
diminishes the value of profits repatriated to the U.S. Another potential
negative factor relates to the political uncertainty created by the Starr
investigation of President Clinton.
 
  One motto for investors over the past three and a half years has been Bigger
is Better, as stocks of larger companies have led a strong market rally while
the stocks of smaller companies have lagged behind. Over the past three and a
half years, the Russell 2000 Index has risen at an annual rate of 18.8% versus
a 29.4% rate for the S&P 500 index. While an 18.8% annual rate of gain is
commendable performance on an absolute basis, it did significantly trail large-
capitalization stocks.
 
  This large relative underperformance continued during the first half of 1998,
despite the view that smaller firms, being more domestically oriented, are
better insulated from foreign economic factors.
 
                                                                               3

U.S. FIXED INCOME MARKETS
 
  The bond market rally, which began in April of 1997, stalled during the first
quarter of 1998, but returned in full force during the second quarter. Yields
on Treasury securities with maturities under two years did not decline much
because of support from the 5.50% federal funds rate. Yields on Treasury
securities between five and thirty years fell to a much greater extent, with
the largest decline occurring on the 30-year Treasury bond. In fact, the yield
on the 30-year Treasury bond fell to its lowest level since the U.S. Treasury
began regular auctions of 30-year bonds.
 
  A number of factors came together to re-ignite the rally in the fixed income
markets during the second quarter:
 
  . The largely self-reinforcing low inflation foundation remained in place,
providing the backdrop against which fixed income yields could fall.
 
  . Continued turmoil in Russia's economic and political systems negatively
impacted most major equity markets.
 
  . In 1998, the Federal budget will record a surplus, estimated to be between
$50 to $80 billion, for the first time in twenty-eight years. The fiscal
conservativeness of the government has reduced the supply of new debt and has,
therefore, put downward pressure on yields.
 
  . The Treasury market benefited from another bout of "flight to quality" from
investors around the globe due to renewed concerns over the Asian crisis.
 
  . The economic weakness in Asia has caused commodity prices to fall, sending
ripples of deflation into economies and financial markets around the world.
 
  . The manufacturing sector is now being impacted by the problems in Asia
which will slow the economy's growth rate during the second half of 1998.
 
  The Federal Reserve has demonstrated a willingness to test the concept of a
"new age" and refrain, at least temporarily, from tightening monetary policy.
The "new age" school believes that there is a more productive, largely
inflation-resistant and less cyclical economy at work today.
 
  Continued weakness in emerging markets around the globe helped drive a strong
flight to quality that helped Treasury bonds throughout the second quarter. As
the yield on the ten-year Treasury note broke

    MARKET OVERVIEW
 
below the 5.0% level, the mortgage-backed market once again was buffeted by
prepayment fears as refinance activity began to heat up. The mortgage-backed
market will continue to be under considerable pressure going forward as long as
fixed income yields remain at historically low levels and consumer confidence
and income levels remain high. The corporate bond market underperformed the
Treasury market for both the quarter and the year to date, as investors
struggled with the combination of a heavy calendar of new issue supply and
concerns that the slowdown in Southeast Asia might cause more of a downturn in
the domestic economy than was originally anticipated.
 
INTERNATIONAL EQUITY MARKETS
 
  The MSCI EAFE Index (Morgan Stanley Capital International--Europe, Australia,
Far East Index) remained largely unchanged during the second quarter and masked
disparate performance between its European and Pacific components. European
stocks were the best performers around the globe during each of the first two
quarters of the year. The Economic and Monetary Union (EMU), scheduled to
commence on January 1, 1999, has set off a series of positive events.
 
  The strict adherence to certain economic targets required of EMU charter
members has forced several European governments to practice some
uncharacteristic monetary and fiscal discipline. The result has been the best
combination of low inflation, low interest rates, and fiscal responsibility
seen throughout Europe in quite some time. Moreover, the renewed focus of
corporate America on enhancing share value through greater profitability and
productivity has spread to Europe. European companies are aggressively cutting
costs, restructuring and becoming more profitable. The result has been higher
earnings and expansions in price/earnings multiples.
 
  The investment climate in Europe stands in stark contrast to the Pacific Rim,
which is dominated by Japan. Weakening economies, credit shortages and falling
currency values led to a drop of 8.8% (in U.S. dollars) in developed Asian
markets during the second quarter. However, there are slight hints that Japan
may be turning the corner. The U.S. intervened in the currency markets in late
June to support the yen for the first time since 1992. While markets are not
swayed by the notion that currency intervention alone is a fundamental fix,
they take comfort in the assumption that agreements had been worked out between
the leaders of Japan and the other members of the G-7 as a condition of
intervention. Japan has at least two major economic problems. One is a moribund
level of domestic demand that is insufficient to give the domestic economy the
necessary stimulus. The other is a banking system burdened by an estimated
$700-800 billion of
 
                                                                               5

bad loans. These loan problems have effectively shut-off lending to small and
medium-sized companies, a key part of the Japanese economy. Quick action by the
Japanese government in implementing permanent tax cuts and restructuring the
ailing banking system is needed. If this happens, it could be the catalyst that
revives Asian economies. Given the current low valuations, there could be a
significant rally in the Pacific Rim.
 
  The world's emerging markets turned sharply lower during the second quarter
after a modest rebound during the first quarter, which followed a 17.5% drop
during the fourth quarter of 1997. The emerging Asian economies are caught in a
self-perpetuating downward spiral of falling demand, collapsing output, rising
unemployment, and sinking business and consumer confidence. The increasing
financial fragility of companies is causing banks to cut back lending and the
resulting credit crunch is compounding the difficulties.

The LifePath Funds employ both strategic and tactical asset allocation
techniques to manage their portfolio investments. Of the Fund's total asset
allocation, 75% is strategic in nature and focuses on the Fund's long-term
investment allocation. The strategic allocation is determined by the tradeoff
between expected returns and risks for each asset class
 
                                                                               7
<PAGE>
 
based on the time horizon of the Fund. As each Fund nears its target date, the
allocation becomes more conservative, shifting to less risky assets such as
shorter-duration fixed income and money market instruments. Short-term
volatility in the markets has only a small effect on a Fund's long-term
strategic allocation. The progression to less risky assets is a continuous
process resulting in only minor monthly changes to the asset allocation. Forty
years from now, the strategic allocation of LifePath 2040 Fund will look very
similar to the current strategic allocation of the LifePath Opportunity Fund.
 
Tactical allocation techniques are used to make up the remaining 25% of each
Fund's entire investment allocation. This method attempts to take advantage of
shorter-term market conditions by shifting Fund investments into assets that
appear undervalued on a risk-adjusted basis. The Funds use two types of
tactical allocations. The more conservative tactical approach of shifting from
long duration bonds to short duration bonds and cash plays a larger role in the
LifePath Opportunity Fund than in the other Funds. The LifePath 2040 Fund, for
example, makes more use of the second and more aggressive tactical allocation
which shifts assets between stocks, bonds and cash.
 
  The allocations of the Funds at the start of the period were as follows:

   LifePath 2040            75%           19%    6%      0
</TABLE>
 
The LifePath Funds all posted positive returns despite both volatility in the
equity markets during the latter part of the second quarter and a near-second
all-time point decline for the Dow Jones Industrial Average during the same
period.
 
The U.S. Treasury bond market benefited from a significant move to quality as
Japan's continuing economic malaise threatened to exacerbate the financial
turmoil engulfing many of the countries of Southeast Asia. And while the U.S.
economy finally began to show signs of moderation from the robust growth of the
first quarter, bond investors in the U.S. seemed to focus more on the U.S.
dollar/Yen exchange rate than on domestic economic data.

By the end of the period, the Funds, allocations were as follows:

   LifePath 2040       79%           21%    0%     0%
</TABLE>
 
The yield curve flattened during the period as three-month T-bill yields rose,
while yields of intermediate- and long-term bonds declined. The intermediate
portion of the yield curve inverted, the two-year bonds, at 5.48%, yielded more
than the 10-year bonds, at 5.45%. All Treasury securities, from T-bills to
those with 10-year maturities now yield less than the federal funds target
rate, which stands at 5.50%. The 30-year T-bond yield declined the most,
falling from 5.80% to 5.63%, the lowest monthly close since the Treasury began
regular auctions of 30-year bonds in 1977.
 
In general, the dramatic rise in equity prices over the past three-and-one-half
years can be attributed to strong and stable corporate earnings growth,
capitalized at higher valuations because of the drop in bond yields. Earnings,
as measured by the S&P 500, have grown every year since 1991 and are projected
to rise this year and next. This consistent earnings pattern is more highly
valued by investors than is a period of faster gains followed by a sharp
decline in earnings. Hence, the high overall Price to Earnings ratio (P/E) of
the market is similar to a higher P/E on a consistent growth stock as compared
to the P/E of a cyclical firm. In addition to a steady earnings pattern, the
growth rate for S&P 500 stock earnings has been quite high at 14% over the past
five years, as compared with a long-run average of a little over 6%. It would
appear that the strong demand for equities and the positive interest rate
environment will continue in the foreseeable future.

STAGECOACH TRUST
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
 
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
  ORGANIZATION
 
  Stagecoach Trust (the "Trust") is registered under the Investment Company Act
of 1940, as amended, (the "1940 Act") as an open-end management investment com-
pany. The Trust was organized as a Massachusetts business trust pursuant to an
Agreement and Declaration of Trust dated October 18, 1993. The Trust currently
issues the following separate funds, which commenced operations on March 1,
1994: LifePath Opportunity, formerly known as LifePath 2000, LifePath 2010,
LifePath 2020, LifePath 2030 and LifePath 2040 (each, a "Fund," collectively,
the "Funds"). The following significant accounting policies are consistently
followed by the Trust in the preparation of its financial statements, and such
policies are in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles for
investment companies.
 
  The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions
that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Ac-
tual results could differ from those estimates.
 
  The LifePath Opportunity, LifePath 2010, LifePath 2020 and LifePath 2030
Funds are authorized to issue three classes of shares: Class A, Class B and an
Institutional Class. LifePath Opportunity Class B shares commenced operations
on August 1, 1998, LifePath 2040 is authorized to issue four classes of shares:
Class A, Class B, Class C and an Institutional Class. LifePath 2040 Class C
shares commenced operations on July 1, 1998. On March 1, 1997, the Retail
Class' name was changed to Class A and all Funds except LifePath Opportunity,
commenced offering Class B shares. Institutional Class shares are no longer of-
fered by the Funds. The four classes of shares differ principally in their re-
spective distribution, shareholder servicing and transfer agency fees. Share-
holders of each class bear certain expenses that pertain to that particular
class. All shareholders bear the common expenses of the Fund and earn income
from the portfolio, pro rata based on the average daily net assets of each
class. Dividends are determined separately for each class based on income and
expenses allocable to each class. Gains are allocated to each class pro rata
based upon net assets of each class on the date of distribution. Neither class
has preferential dividend rights; differ-

STAGECOACH TRUST
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
ences in per share dividend rates are generally due to differences in separate
class expenses, including distribution fees and from the weightings of pro rata
income and gain allocations.
 
  INVESTMENT POLICY AND SECURITY VALUATION
 
  Each Fund invests all of its assets in a separate series (each, a "Master
Portfolio") of Master Investment Portfolio ("MIP"). Each Master Portfolio has
the same investment objective as the Fund bearing the corresponding name. The
value of each Fund's investment in its corresponding Master Portfolio reflects
that Fund's interest in the net assets of that Master Portfolio (57.08%,
45.62%, 54.36%, 59.64%, and 67.92%) for the LifePath Opportunity, LifePath
2010, LifePath 2020, LifePath 2030 and LifePath 2040 Funds, respectively, at
August 31, 1998. The Master Portfolios invest in a wide range of U.S. and for-
eign equity, debt securities and money market instruments. Each Master Portfo-
lio follows an asset allocation strategy among three broad investing classes:
equity and debt securities of issuers located throughout the world and cash in
the form of money market instruments. The equity securities of the Master Port-
folios are valued at the last reported sale price on the primary securities ex-
change or national securities market on which such securities are traded. Secu-
rities not listed on an exchange or national securities market, or securities
in which there was no last reported sales price, are valued at the most recent
bid prices. Debt securities are generally traded in the over-the-counter market
and are valued at a price deemed best to reflect fair value as quoted by deal-
ers who make markets in those securities or by an independent pricing source.
U.S. Government obligations are valued at the last reported bid price. Debt se-
curities maturing in 60 days or less are valued at amortized cost, which ap-
proximates market value. Any securities, restricted securities or other assets
for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value
as determined in good faith in accordance with policies approved by the Master
Portfolios' Board of Trustees.
 
  SECURITY TRANSACTIONS AND INCOME RECOGNITION
 
  Security transactions are accounted for by each Master Portfolio on the date
the securities are purchased or sold (trade date). Revenue is recognized by
each Master Portfolio as follows: dividend income is recognized on the ex-divi-
dend date, and interest income is recognized on a daily accrual basis. Realized
gains or losses are reported on the basis of identified cost of securities de-
livered. Bond discounts and premiums

are amortized as required by the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the
"Code"). All net investment income and realized and unrealized capital gains
and losses of each Master Portfolio are allocated as required by the Code.
 
  The performance of each Fund is directly affected by the performance of its
corresponding Master Portfolio. The financial statements of each Master Portfo-
lio, including the Portfolio of Investments, are included elsewhere in this re-
port and should be read in conjunction with the corresponding Fund's financial
statements.
 
  DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS
 
  Each Fund declares and pays dividends to shareholders from net investment in-
come quarterly. Distributions to shareholders from any net realized capital
gains are declared and distributed annually, generally in December.
 
  Due to the timing of dividend distributions and the differences in accounting
for income and realized gains (losses) for financial statement and federal in-
come tax purposes, the fiscal year in which amounts are distributed may differ
from the year in which the income and realized gains (losses) were recorded by
the Fund.
 
  FEDERAL INCOME TAXES
 
  Each Fund is treated as a separate entity for federal income tax purposes. It
is the policy of each Fund to continue to qualify as a regulated investment
company by complying with the provisions applicable to investment companies, as
set forth in the Code, and to make distributions of investment company taxable
income and net capital gains (after reduction for capital loss carryforwards)
sufficient to relieve it from all, or substantially all, federal income and ex-
cise taxes. Accordingly, no provision for federal taxes was required.
 
 
2.  AGREEMENTS AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
 
  The Trust has entered into an agreement on behalf of the Funds with Wells
Fargo Bank ("WFB") to provide transfer and dividend disbursing agency services.
For providing the transfer and dividend disbursing agency services, the Trust
has agreed to pay a monthly fee at the annual rate of 0.10% for the Institu-
tional Class and 0.14% for Class A, Class B and Class C of each Fund's average
daily net assets.

  On behalf of the Funds, the Trust may enter into servicing agreements with
certain financial institutions, securities dealers and other industry profes-
sionals (collectively, "Shareholder Servicing Agents") for the provision of
certain services to Fund shareholders. For the services provided pursuant to a
Shareholder Servicing Agreement, Class A, Class B and Class C may pay each
Shareholder Servicing Agent a fee of up to 0.25% and the Institutional Class
may pay up to 0.20% of the average daily net asset value of each Fund's shares
beneficially owned by customers of the Shareholder Servicing Agent. The Trust
has entered into a Shareholder Servicing Agreement with Barclays Global Invest-
ors, N.A. ("BGI").
 
 
  Stephens Inc. ("Stephens"), is the Funds' co-administrator and distributor.
 
  The Trust has entered into an agreement with Stephens on behalf of its shares
for distribution services and has adopted a Plan of Distribution pursuant to
Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act, whereby Stephens may be compensated for services
rendered and reimbursed for expenses incurred on behalf of the Class A, Class B
and Class C shares. For providing these services, Stephens is entitled to
receive 0.25% of the average daily net assets of Class A shares on an annual
basis and 0.75% of the average daily net assets of Class B and Class C shares
on an annual basis.
 
  Certain officers and directors of the Trust are also officers of Stephens. At
August 31, 1998, these officers of Stephens collectively owned less than 1% of
the Funds' outstanding shares.
 
  Investors Bank & Trust Company ("IBT") serves as the sub-administrator to
each Fund. IBT is entitled to receive a separate fee from WFB for its services
as Sub-Administrator of the Funds.
 
  Prior to August 1, 1998 the Trust had entered into administration services
arrangements with WFB and Stephens, as co-administrators, who had agreed
jointly to provide general administration services to the Funds, such as
managing and coordinating third-party service relationships. Under the
arrangement, WFB and Stephens were entitled to receive for these services a
combined fee (expressed as a percentage of average daily net assets) from each
Fund of 0.10%. This fee was an "all-in" or "semi-unified" fee and WFB and
Stephens, in consideration thereof, had agreed to bear all of the Funds'
ordinary operating expenses, excluding, generally, advisory fees and costs
related to

administration duties to sub-administrators.
 
  Effective August 1, 1998 under the new administration services agreement, WFB
and Stephens are entitled to receive for administration services 0.03% and
0.04% (expressed as a percentage of average daily net assets) respectively,
form each Fund.

MASTER INVESTMENT PORTFOLIO
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
 
1.  SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
  ORGANIZATION
 
  Master Investment Portfolio ("MIP") is registered under the Investment Com-
pany Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end management in-
vestment company. MIP was organized on October 21, 1993, as a Delaware business
trust pursuant to an Agreement and Declaration of Trust dated May 14, 1993, and
had no operations prior to May 26, 1994. MIP currently issues the following
separate portfolios (the "Master Portfolios"): the Asset Allocation, Bond In-
dex, LifePath 2000, LifePath 2010, LifePath 2020, LifePath 2030, LifePath 2040,
S&P 500 Index and U.S. Treasury Allocation Master Portfolios. The financial
statements for the Asset Allocation, Bond Index, S&P 500 Index and U.S. Trea-
sury Allocation Master Portfolios are presented separately.
 
  The following significant accounting policies are consistently followed by
MIP in the preparation of its financial statements, and such policies are in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles for investment compa-
nies. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally ac-
cepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assump-
tions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure
of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements
and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
  INVESTMENT POLICY AND SECURITY VALUATION
 
  Each Master Portfolio covered by this report follows an asset allocation
strategy among three broad investment classes: equity and debt securities of
issuers located throughout the world and cash in the form of money market in-
struments. The equity securities of the Master Portfolios are valued at the
last reported sale price on the primary securities exchange or national securi-
ties market on which such securities are traded. Securities not listed on an
exchange or national securities market, or securities in which there was no
last reported sales price, are valued at the most recent bid prices. Debt secu-
rities are generally traded in the over-the-counter market and are valued at a
price deemed best to reflect fair value as quoted by dealers who make markets
in those securities or by an independent pricing source. U.S. Government obli-
gations are valued at the last reported bid price. Debt securities maturing in
60

<PAGE>
 
MASTER INVESTMENT PORTFOLIO
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. Any
securities, restricted securities or other assets for which market quotations
are not readily available, are valued at fair value as determined in good faith
in accordance with policies approved by MIP's Board of Trustees.
 
 
  SECURITY TRANSACTIONS AND INCOME RECOGNITION
 
  Security transactions are accounted for on the date the securities are pur-
chased or sold (trade date). Dividend income is recognized on the ex-dividend
date, and interest income is recognized on a daily accrual basis. Realized
gains or losses are reported on the basis of identified cost of securities de-
livered. Bond discounts and premiums are amortized under provisions of the In-
ternal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code").
 
  FEDERAL INCOME TAXES
 
  Each Master Portfolio of MIP intends to qualify as a partnership for federal
income tax purposes. Each Master Portfolio therefore believes that it will not
be subject to any federal income tax on its income and net realized capital
gains (if any). However, each investor in a Master Portfolio will be taxed on
its allocable share of the partnership's income and capital gains for purposes
of determining its federal income tax liability. The determination of such
share will be made in accordance with the applicable sections of the Code.
 
  It is intended that each Master Portfolio's assets, income and allocations
will be managed in such a way that a regulated investment company investing in
a Master Portfolio will be able to satisfy the requirements of Subchapter M of
the Code, assuming that the investment company invested all of its assets in
the corresponding Master Portfolio.
 
  FUTURES CONTRACTS
 
  The LifePath 2000, LifePath 2010, LifePath 2020, LifePath 2030, and LifePath
2040 Master Portfolios may purchase futures contracts to gain exposure to mar-
ket changes, as this may be more efficient or cost effective than actually buy-
ing the securities. A futures contract is an agreement between two parties to
buy or sell a security at a set price on a future date and is exchange traded.
Upon entering into a futures contract, the LifePath 2000, LifePath 2010,
LifePath 2020, LifePath 2030, and LifePath 2040 Master Portfolios are required
to pledge to the broker an amount of cash, U.S. Government securities or other
high- quality debt securities equal to the minimum "initial margin" require-
ments of the exchange. Pursuant to the contract, the Master Portfolios
 
                                                                             129
<PAGE>
 
MASTER INVESTMENT PORTFOLIO
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
 
agree to receive from or pay to the broker an amount of cash equal to the daily
fluctuation in the value of the contract. Such receipts or payments are known
as "variation margin" and are recorded by the Master Portfolios as unrealized
gains or losses. When the contract is closed, the Master Portfolios record a
gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the
time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed. Pursuant to regula-
tions and/or published positions of the Securities and Exchange Commission, the
Master Portfolios are required to segregate cash, U.S. Government obligations
or high quality, liquid debt instruments in connection with futures transac-
tions in an amount generally equal to the entire contract amount. Risks of en-
tering into futures contracts include the possibility that there may be an il-
liquid market and that a change in the value of the contracts may not correlate
with changes in the value of the underlying securities. As of August 31, 1998,
the Master Portfolios had no open futures contracts outstanding.
 
  REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS
 
  Transactions involving purchases of securities under agreements to resell
such securities at a specified price and time ("repurchase agreements") are
treated as collateralized financing transactions and arerecorded at their con-
tracted resale amounts. These repurchase agreements, if any, are detailed in
each Master Portfolio's Portfolio of Investments. The adviser to the Master
Portfolios may pool each Master Portfolio's cash and invest in repurchase
agreements entered into by the other Master Portfolios. Each Master Portfolio's
prospectus requires that the cash investments be fully collateralized based on
values that are marked to market daily. The collateral is generally held by an
agent bank under a tri-party agreement. It is the adviser's responsibility to
value collateral daily and to obtain additional collateral as necessary to
maintain the value at equal to or greater than 102% of market value. The repur-
chase agreements entered into on August 31, 1998, the Master Portfolios are
collateralized by U.S. Government Securities.

2.  AGREEMENTS AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
 
  Pursuant to an Investment Advisory Contract with each Master Portfolio,
Barclays Global Fund Advisors ("BGFA") provides investment guidance and policy
direction in connection with the management of each Master Portfolio's assets.
BGFA is entitled to receive 0.55% of the average daily net assets of the
LifePath Master Portfolios as compensation for its advisory services to such
Master Portfolios. BGFA is an indirect subsidiary of Barclays Bank PLC.
 
  Investors Bank & Trust Company ("IBT") serves as the custodian to each Master
Portfolio. IBT will not be entitled to receive fees for its custodial services
so long as it is entitled to receive a separate fee from Barclays Global In-
vestors, N.A. ("BGI") for its services as Sub-Administrator of each Master
Portfolio.
 
  Stephens, Inc. ("Stephens") is the co-administrator and placement agent for
the Master Portfolios.
 
  Certain officers and directors of MIP are also officers of Stephens. As of
August 31, 1998, these officers of Stephens collectively owned less than 1% of
the Master Portfolios' outstanding shares of beneficial interests.
 
3.  INVESTMENT PORTFOLIO TRANSACTIONS
 
  Purchases and sales of investments, exclusive of short-term securities, for
each Master Portfolio for the six months ended August 31, 1998, are as follows:
