NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(1) SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Senior Debt Portfolio (the Portfolio) is registered under the Investment Company
Act of 1940 as a non-diversified closed-end investment company which was
organized as a trust under the laws of the State of New York on May 1, 1992. The
Declaration of Trust permits the Trustees to issue interests in the Portfolio.
Investment operations began on February 22, 1995, with the acquisition of
securities with a value of $583,240,521, including unrealized depreciation of
$2,724,927, in exchange for an interest in the Portfolio by one of the
Portfolio's investors. The following is a summary of significant accounting
policies of the Portfolio. The policies are in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
A. INVESTMENT VALUATION -- The Portfolio's investments in interests in loans
(Loan Interests) are valued at fair value by the Portfolio's investment adviser,
Boston Management and Research, under procedures established by the Trustees as
permitted by Section 2(a)(41) of the Investment Company Act of 1940. Such
procedures include the consideration of relevant factors, data and information
relating to fair value, including (i) the characteristics of and fundamental
analytical data relating to the Loan Interest, including the cost, size, current
interest rate, period until next interest rate reset, maturity and base lending
rate of the Loan Interest, the terms and conditions of the loan and any related
agreements and the position of the loan in the borrower's debt structure; (ii)
the nature, adequacy and value of the collateral, including the Portfolio's
rights, remedies and interests with respect to the collateral; (iii) the
creditworthiness of the borrower, based on evaluations of its financial
condition, financial statements and information about the borrower's business,
cash flows, capital structure and future prospects; (iv) information relating to
the market for the Loan Interest including price quotations for and trading in
the Loan Interest and interests in similar loans and the market environment and
investor attitudes towards the Loan Interest and interests in similar loans; (v)
the reputation and financial condition of the agent bank and any intermediate
participant in the loan; and (vi) general economic and market conditions
affecting the fair value of the Loan Interest. Other portfolio securities (other
than short-term obligations, but including listed issues) may be valued on the
basis of prices furnished by one or more pricing services which determine prices
for normal, institutional-sized trading units of such securities using market
information, transactions for comparable securities and various relationships
between securities which are generally recognized by institutional traders. In
certain circumstances, portfolio securities will be valued at the last sales
price on the exchange that is the primary market for such securities, or the
last quoted bid price for those securities for which the over-the-counter market
is the primary market or for listed securities in which there were no sales
during the day. The value of interest rate swaps will be determined in
accordance with a discounted present value formula and then confirmed by
obtaining a bank quotation. Short-term obligations which mature in sixty days or
less are valued at amortized cost, if their original term to maturity when
acquired by the Portfolio was 60 days or less, or are valued at amortized cost
using their value on the 61st day prior to maturity, if their original term to
maturity when acquired by the Portfolio was more than 60 days, unless in each
case this is determined not to represent fair value. Repurchase agreements are
valued at cost plus accrued interest. Other portfolio securities for which there
are no quotations or valuations are valued at fair value as determined in good
faith by or on behalf of the Trustees.
B. INCOME -- Interest income from Loan Interests is recorded on the accrual
basis at the then-current interest rate, while all other interest income is
determined on the basis of interest accrued, adjusted for amortization of
premium or discount when required for federal income tax purposes. Facility fees
received are recognized as income over the expected term of the loan.
C. INCOME TAXES -- The Portfolio is treated as a partnership for federal tax
purposes. No provision is made by the Portfolio for federal or state taxes on
any taxable income of the Portfolio because each investor in the Portfolio is
ultimately responsible for the payment of any taxes. Since some of the
Portfolio's investors are regulated investment companies that invest all or
substantially all of their assets in the Portfolio, the Portfolio normally must
satisfy the applicable source of income and diversification requirements (under
the Internal Revenue Code) in order for its investors to satisfy them. The
Portfolio will allocate at least annually among its investors each investor's
distributive share of the Portfolio's net investment income, net realized
capital gains, and any other items of income, gain, loss, deductions or credit.
D. DEFERRED ORGANIZATION EXPENSES -- Costs incurred by the Portfolio in
connection with its organization are being amortized on the straight-line basis
over five years.
E. OTHER -- Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis.
F. USE OF ESTIMATES -- 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 at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of
revenue and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could differ
from those estimates.
G. EXPENSE REDUCTION -- Investors Bank & Trust Company (IBT) serves as custodian
of the Portfolio. Pursuant to the custodian agreement, IBT receives a fee
reduced by credits which are determined based on the average daily cash balances
the Portfolio maintains with IBT. All significant credit balances used to reduce
the Portfolio's custodian fee are reported as a reduction of expenses in the
statement of operations.
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(2) INVESTMENT ADVISORY FEE AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
The investment advisory fee is earned by Boston Management and Research (BMR) as
compensation for investment advisory services rendered to the Portfolio. The fee
is computed at the monthly rate of 19/240 of 1% (0.95% per annum) of the
Portfolio's average daily gross assets up to and including $1 billion and at
reduced rates as daily gross assets exceed that level. For the year ended
December 31, 1996, the effective annual rate, based on average daily gross
assets, was 0.91% and amounted to $21,643,760. Except as to Trustees of the
Portfolio who are not members of BMR's organization, officers and Trustees
receive remuneration for their services to the Portfolio out of such investment
advisory fee.
Certain of the officers and Trustees of the Portfolio are officers and
directors/trustees of BMR. Trustees of the Portfolio that are not affiliated
with the Investment Advisor may elect to defer receipt of all or a percentage of
their annual fees in accordance with the terms of the Trustees Deferred
Compensation Plan. For the year ended December 31, 1996, no significant amounts
have been deferred.
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(3) INVESTMENTS
The Portfolio invests primarily in Loan Interests. The ability of the issuers of
the Loan Interests to meet their obligations may be affected by economic
developments in a specific industry. The cost of purchases and the proceeds from
principal repayments and sales of Loan Interests for the year ended December 31,
1996 aggregated $2,550,646,342 and $1,508,979,345, respectively.
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(4) SHORT-TERM DEBT AND CREDIT AGREEMENTS
The Portfolio has entered into a revolving credit agreement, that will allow the
Portfolio to borrow an additional $245 million to support the issuance of
commercial paper and to permit the Portfolio to invest in accordance with its
investment practices. Interest is charged under the revolving credit agreement
at the bank's base rate or at an amount above either the bank's adjusted Libor
rate or adjusted certificate of deposit rate. Interest expense includes a
commitment fee of approximately $612,500 which is computed at the annual rate of
1/4 of 1% on the unused portion of the revolving credit agreement. There were no
borrowings under this agreement during the year ended December 31, 1996. As of
December 31, 1996, the Portfolio had no commercial paper outstanding.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
TO THE TRUSTEES AND INVESTORS OF
SENIOR DEBT PORTFOLIO:
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including
the portfolio of investments, of Senior Debt Portfolio as of December 31, 1996,
the related statements of operations and cash flows for the year then ended, and
the statements of changes in net assets and the supplementary data for the year
ended December 31, 1996 and for the period from the start of business, February
22, 1995, to December 31, 1995 (all expressed in United States dollars). These
financial statements and supplementary data are the responsibility of the
Portfolio's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements and supplementary data based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements and supplementary data are free of material misstatement. An audit
includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and
disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of
securities and Loan Interests owned at December 31, 1996, by correspondence with
the custodian and selling or agent banks; where replies were not received from
selling or agent banks, we performed other auditing procedures. An audit also
includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made
by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our
opinion.
In our opinion, such financial statements and supplementary data present fairly,
in all material respects, the financial position of Senior Debt Portfolio as of
December 31, 1996, the results of its operations and its cash flows, the changes
in its net assets, and its supplementary data for the respective periods in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America.
As discussed in Note 1A, the financial statements include Loan Interests and
certain other securities held by Senior Debt Portfolio valued at $2,462,093,729
(81.8% of net assets of the Portfolio), which values are fair values determined
by the Portfolio's investment adviser in the absence of actual market values.
Determination of fair value involves subjective judgment, as the actual market
value of a particular Loan Interest or security can be established only by
negotiation between the parties in a sales transaction. We have reviewed the
procedures established by the Trustees and used by the Portfolio's investment
adviser in determining the fair values of such Loan Interests and securities and
have inspected underlying documentation, and in the circumstances, we believe
that the procedures are reasonable and the documentation appropriate.
