GOVERNMENT INCOME PORTFOLIO
Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited)
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Government Income Portfolio (the
"Portfolio"), a separate series of The Premium Portfolios (the "Portfolio
Trust"), is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as
a 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. The Investment
Adviser of the Portfolio is Citibank, N.A. ("Citibank"). Signature Financial
Group (Grand Cayman), Ltd. ("SFG") acts as the Portfolio's Administrator.
Citibank is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Citigroup Inc.
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. 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. INVESTMENT SECURITY VALUATIONS Debt securities (other than short-term
obligations maturing in 60 days or less) are valued on the basis of valuations
furnished by pricing services approved by the Board of Trustees, which take into
account appropriate factors such as institutional-size trading in similar groups
of securities, yield, quality, coupon rate, maturity, type of issue, and other
market data, without exclusive reliance on quoted prices or exchange or
over-the-counter prices. Short-term obligations maturing in 60 days or less are
valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. Securities, if any,
for which there are no such valuations or quotations are valued at fair value as
determined in good faith by or under guidelines established by the Trustees.
B. INCOME Interest income consists of interest accrued and discounts
earned, adjusted for amortization of premium or discount on long-term debt
securities when required for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Gain and loss
from principal paydowns are recorded as income.
C. U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAXES The Portfolio is considered a partnership
under the U.S. Internal Revenue Code. Accordingly, no provision for federal
income taxes is necessary.
D. EXPENSES The Portfolio bears all costs of its operations other than
expenses specifically assumed by Citibank and SFG. Expenses incurred by the
Portfolio Trust with respect to any two or more portfolios or series are
allocated in proportion to the average net assets of each portfolio, except when
allocations of direct expenses to each portfolio can otherwise be made fairly.
Expenses directly attributable to a portfolio are charged to that portfolio.
E. REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS It is the policy of the Portfolio to require the
custodian bank to take possession, to have legally segregated in the Federal
Reserve Book Entry System or to have segregated within the custodian bank's
vault, all securities held as collateral in support of repurchase agreements.
Additionally, procedures have been established by the Portfolio to monitor, on a
daily basis, the market value of the repur-

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (Continued)
chase agreement's underlying investments to ensure the existence of a proper
level of collateral.
F. TBA PURCHASE COMMITMENTS The Portfolio enters into "TBA" (to be
announced) purchase commitments to purchase securities for a fixed unit price at
a future date beyond customary settlement time. Although the unit price has been
established, the principal value has not been finalized. However, the amount of
the commitment will not fluctuate more than 0.01% from the principal amount. The
Portfolio holds, and maintains until the settlement date, cash or high-grade
debt obligations in an amount sufficient to meet the purchase price. TBA
purchase commitments may be considered securities in themselves, and involve a
risk of loss if the value of the security to be purchased declines prior to the
settlement date, which risk is in addition to the risk of decline in the value
of the Portfolio's other assets. Unsettled TBA purchase commitments are valued
at the current market value of the underlying securities, generally according to
the procedures described under Note 1A.
Although the Portfolio will generally enter into TBA purchase commitments
with the intention of acquiring securities for its portfolio, the Portfolio may
dispose of a commitment prior to settlement if the Portfolio's Adviser deems it
appropriate to do so.
G. FUTURES CONTRACTS The Portfolio may engage in futures transactions. The
Portfolio may use futures contracts in order to protect the Portfolio from
fluctuation in interest rates without actually buying or selling debt
securities, or to manage the effective maturity or duration of fixed income
securities in the Portfolio in an effort to reduce potential losses or enhance
potential gains. Buying futures contracts tends to increase the Portfolio's
exposure to the underlying instrument. Selling futures contracts tends to either
decrease the Portfolio's exposure to the underlying instrument, or to hedge
other Portfolio investments.
Upon entering into a futures contract, the Portfolio is required to deposit
with the broker an amount of cash or cash equivalents equal to a certain
percentage of the contract amount. This is known as the "initial margin".
Subsequent payments ("variation margin") are made or received by the Portfolio
each day, depending on the daily fluctuation of the value of the contract. The
daily changes in contract value are recorded as unrealized gains or losses and
the Portfolio recognizes a realized gain or loss when the contract is closed.
Futures contracts are valued at the settlement price established by the board of
trade or exchange on which they are traded.
There are several risks in connection with the use of futures contracts as
a hedging device. The change in the value of futures contracts primarily
corresponds with the value of their underlying instruments, which may not
correlate with the change in the value of the hedged instruments. In addition,
there is the risk the Portfolio may not be able to enter into a closing
transaction because of an illiquid secondary market. Futures contracts involve,
to varying degrees, risk of loss in excess of the futures variation margin
reflected in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. No such instruments were
held at June 30, 2000.

H. OTHER Investment transactions are accounted for on the date the
investments are purchased or sold. Realized gains and losses are determined on
the identified cost basis.
2. INVESTMENT ADVISORY FEES The investment advisory fees paid to Citibank, as
compensation for overall investment management services, amounted to $104,444,
for the six months ended June 30, 2000. The investment advisory fees are
computed at the annual rate of 0.35% of the Portfolio's average daily net
assets.
3. ADMINISTRATIVE FEES Under the terms of an Administrative Services Agreement,
the administrative fees paid to the Administrator, as compensation for overall
administrative services and general office facilities, are computed at the
annual rate of 0.05% of the Portfolio's average daily net assets. The
administrative fees amounted to $14,921, all of which was voluntarily waived,
for the six months ended June 30, 2000. Citibank acts as Sub-Administrator and
performs certain duties and receives such compensation from SFG from time to
time as agreed to by SFG and Citibank. 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 or directors of the Administrator or its affiliates.
4. PURCHASES AND SALES OF INVESTMENTS Purchases and sales of U.S. Government
securities, other than short-term obligations, aggregated $99,512,731 and
$90,266,069, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2000.
5. FEDERAL INCOME TAX BASIS OF INVESTMENTS The cost and unrealized appreciation
(depreciation) in value of the investment securities owned at June 30, 2000, as
computed on a federal income tax basis, are as follows:
Aggregate cost $ 58,231,279
================================================================================
Gross unrealized appreciation $ 74,048
Gross unrealized depreciation (756,716)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Net unrealized depreciation $ (682,668)
================================================================================
6. EXPENSE FEES SFG has entered into an expense agreement with the Portfolio.
SFG has agreed to pay all of the ordinary operating expenses (excluding
interest, taxes, brokerage commissions, litigation costs or other extraordinary
costs or expenses) of the Portfolio, other than fees paid under the Advisory
Agreement and Administrative Services Agreement. The Agreement may be terminated
by either party upon not less than 30 days nor more than 60 days written notice.
The Portfolio has agreed to pay SFG an expense fee on an annual basis,
accrued daily and paid monthly; provided, however, that such fee shall not
exceed the amount such that immediately after any such payment the aggregate
ordinary expenses of the Portfolio less expenses waived by the Administrator
would, on an annual basis, exceed an agreed upon rate, currently 0.35% of the
Portfolio's average daily net assets.

7. LINE OF CREDIT The Portfolio, along with various other Portfolios in the
CitiFunds family, entered into an ongoing agreement with a bank which allows the
Portfolios collectively to borrow up to $75 million for temporary or emergency
purposes. Interest on borrowings, if any, is charged to the specific Portfolio
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 June 30, 2000,
the commitment fee allocated to the Portfolio was $90. Since the line of credit
was established, there have been no borrowings.
