Dear Shareholder:
Although there has been some encouraging news in the capital markets this spring, many economic uncertainties remain - including still-weak corporate earnings and sluggish consumer spending - which could call into question the sustainability and overall strength of the markets' recent forward momentum. Financial markets are always unpredictable, of course, but there also are several time-tested investment principles that can help put the historical odds in your favor.
One of the basic tenets is to invest for the long term. Over time, riding out the markets' inevitable ups and downs has proven much more effective than selling into panic or chasing the hottest trend. Even missing only a few of the markets' best days can significantly diminish investor returns. Patience also affords the benefits of compounding - of earning interest on additional income or reinvested dividends and capital gains. There can be tax advantages and cost benefits to consider as well. While staying the course doesn't eliminate risk, it can considerably lessen the effect of short-term declines.
You can further manage your investing risk through diversification. And today, more than ever, geographic diversification should be taken into account. Studies indicate that asset allocation is the single most important determinant of a portfolio's long-term success. The right mix of stocks, bonds and cash - aligned to your particular risk tolerance and investment objective - is very important. Age-appropriate rebalancing is also an essential aspect of asset allocation. For younger investors, an emphasis on equities - which historically have been the best-performing asset class over time - is encouraged. As investors near their specific goal, such as retirement or sending a child to college, consideration may be given to replacing volatile assets (e.g. common stocks) with more-stable fixed investments (bonds or savings plans).
A third principle - investing regularly - can help lower the average cost of your purchases. Investing a certain amount of money each month or quarter helps ensure you won't pay for all your shares at market highs. This strategy - known as dollar cost averaging - also reduces "emotion" from investing, helping shareholders avoid selling weak performers just prior to an upswing, or chasing a hot performer just before a correction.
We invite you to contact us via the Internet, through our Investor Centers or by phone. It is our privilege to provide you the information you need to make the investments that are right for you.
Sincerely,
/s/Abigail P. Johnson

Semiannual Report
As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (December 1, 2008 to May 31, 2009).
Actual Expenses
The first line of the accompanying table provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000.00 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000.00 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. A small balance maintenance fee of $12.00 that is charged once a year may apply for certain accounts with a value of less than $2,000. This fee is not included in the table below. If it was, the estimate of expenses you paid during the period would be higher, and your ending account value lower, by this amount.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The second line of the accompanying table provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund's actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund's actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. A small balance maintenance fee of $12.00 that is charged once a year may apply for certain accounts with a value of less than $2,000. This fee is not included in the table below. If it was, the estimate of expenses you paid during the period would be higher, and your ending account value lower, by this amount.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transaction costs. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds.

C Total returns would have been lower had certain expenses not been reduced during the periods shown.
D Expense ratios reflect operating expenses of the Fund. Expenses before reductions do not reflect amounts reimbursed by the investment adviser or expense offset arrangements and do not represent the amount paid by the Fund during periods when reimbursements or reductions occur. Expenses net of fee waivers reflect expenses after reimbursement by the investment adviser but prior to reductions from expense offset arrangements. Expenses net of all reductions represent the net expenses paid by the Fund.

1. Organization.
Fidelity Cash Reserves (the Fund) is a fund of Fidelity Phillips Street Trust (the trust) and is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares. The trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company organized as a Delaware statutory trust.
2. Significant Accounting Policies.
The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which require management to make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following summarizes the significant accounting policies of the Fund:
Security Valuation. As permitted by compliance with certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 of the 1940 Act, securities are valued at amortized cost, which approximates value.
The Fund is subject to the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, "Fair Value Measurements" (SFAS 157). SFAS 157 establishes a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques giving the highest priority to readily available unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets (level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 measurements) when market prices are not readily available or reliable. The three levels of the hierarchy under SFAS 157 are described below:
Level 1 |
Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities. |
Level 2 |
Prices determined using other significant observable inputs. Observable inputs are inputs that other market participants may use in pricing a security. These may include quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk and others. |
Level 3 |
Prices determined using significant unobservable inputs. In situations where quoted prices or observable inputs are unavailable or deemed less relevant (for example, when there is little or no market activity for an investment at the end of the period), unobservable inputs may be used. Unobservable inputs reflect the Fund's own assumptions about the factors market participants would use in pricing an investment, and would be based on the best information available. |
The aggregate value by input level, as of May 31, 2009, for the Fund's investments is included at the end of the Fund's Schedule of Investments.
Investment Transactions and Income. The net asset value per share for processing shareholder transactions is calculated as of the close of business of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time. Security transactions are accounted for as of trade date. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost. Interest income is accrued as earned. Interest income includes coupon interest and amortization of premium and accretion of discount on debt securities.

2. Significant Accounting Policies - continued
Expenses. Most expenses of the trust can be directly attributed to a fund. Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned among each Fund in the trust. Expense estimates are accrued in the period to which they relate and adjustments are made when actual amounts are known.
The Board of Trustees of the Fund approved the participation by the Fund in the U.S. Treasury Department's Temporary Guarantee Program for Money Market Funds (the "Program") through September 18, 2009. Under the Program, if the Fund's market value per share drops below $0.995 on any day while the Program is in effect, shareholders of record on that date who also held shares in the Fund on September 19, 2008 may be eligible to receive a payment from the U.S. Treasury Department upon liquidation of the Fund. The Fund paid the U.S. Treasury Department fees equal to 0.04% based on the number of shares outstanding as of September 19, 2008 to participate in the Program. The fees are being amortized over the length of the participation in the Program. The expense is borne by the Fund without regard to any expense limitation currently in effect for the Fund.
Deferred Trustee Compensation. Under a Deferred Compensation Plan (the Plan), independent Trustees must defer receipt of a portion of, and may elect to defer receipt of an additional portion of, their annual compensation. Deferred amounts are invested in a cross-section of Fidelity funds, are marked-to-market and remain in the Fund until distributed in accordance with the Plan. The investment of deferred amounts and the offsetting payable to the Trustees are included in the accompanying Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
Income Tax Information and Distributions to Shareholders. Each year, the Fund intends to qualify as a regulated investment company by distributing substantially all of its taxable income and realized gains under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code and filing its U.S. federal tax return. As a result, no provision for income taxes is required. The Fund is subject to the provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainties in Income Taxes (FIN 48). FIN 48 sets forth a minimum threshold for financial statement recognition of the benefit of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. There are no unrecognized tax benefits in the accompanying financial statements. A Fund's federal tax return is subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for a period of three years.
Dividends are declared daily and paid monthly from net investment income. Distributions from realized gains, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles. In addition, the Fund claimed a portion of the payment made to redeeming shareholders as a distribution for income tax purposes.

Capital accounts within the financial statements are adjusted for permanent book-tax differences. These adjustments have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. Temporary book-tax differences will reverse in a subsequent period.
Book-tax differences are primarily due to deferred trustee compensation.

3. Operating Policies.
Repurchase Agreements. Fidelity Management & Research Company (FMR) has received an Exemptive Order from the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) which permits the Fund and other affiliated entities of FMR to transfer uninvested cash balances into joint trading accounts which are then invested in repurchase agreements. The Fund may also invest directly with institutions in repurchase agreements. Repurchase agreements are collateralized by government or non-government securities. Upon settlement date, collateral is held in segregated accounts with custodian banks and may be obtained in the event of a default of the counterparty. The Fund monitors, on a daily basis, the value of the collateral to ensure it is at least equal to the principal amount of the repurchase agreement (including accrued interest). In the event of a default by the counterparty, realization of the collateral proceeds could be delayed, during which time the value of the collateral may decline.
Delayed Delivery Transactions and When-Issued Securities. The Fund may purchase or sell securities on a delayed delivery or when-issued basis. Payment and delivery may take place after the customary settlement period for that security. The price of the underlying securities and the date when the securities will be delivered and paid for are fixed at the time the transaction is negotiated. During the time a delayed delivery sell is outstanding, equivalent deliverable securities are held for the transaction. The securities purchased on a delayed delivery or when-issued basis are identified as such in the Fund's Schedule of Investments. The Fund may receive compensation for interest forgone in the purchase of a delayed delivery or when-issued security. With respect to purchase commitments, the Fund identifies securities as segregated in its records with a

value at least equal to the amount of the commitment. Losses may arise due to changes in the value of the underlying securities or if the counterparty does not perform under the contract's terms, or if the issuer does not issue the securities due to political, economic, or other factors.
Restricted Securities. The Fund may invest in securities that are subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale. These securities generally may be resold in transactions exempt from registration or to the public if the securities are registered. Disposal of these securities may involve time-consuming negotiations and expense, and prompt sale at an acceptable price may be difficult. Information regarding restricted securities is included at the end of the Fund's Schedule of Investments.
4. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates.
Management Fee. FMR and its affiliates provide the Fund with investment management related services for which the Fund pays a monthly management fee. The management fee is calculated on the basis of a group fee rate plus a total income-based component. The group fee rate averaged .12% during the period. The group fee rate is based upon the average net assets of all the mutual funds advised by FMR. The group fee rate decreases as assets under management increase and increases as assets under management decrease. The total income-based component is calculated according to a graduated schedule providing for different rates based on the Fund's gross annualized yield. The rate increases as the Fund's gross yield increases.
During the period the income-based portion of this fee was $48,866 or an annualized rate of .07% of the Fund's average net assets. For the period, the Fund's total annualized management fee rate was .19% of the Fund's average net assets.
Transfer Agent Fees. Fidelity Investments Institutional Operations Company, Inc. (FIIOC), an affiliate of FMR, is the Fund's transfer, dividend disbursing and shareholder servicing agent. FIIOC receives account fees and asset-based fees that vary according to account size and type of account. FIIOC pays for typesetting, printing and mailing of shareholder reports, except proxy statements. For the period, the transfer agent fees were equivalent to an annualized rate of .18% of average net assets.
Accounting Fees. Fidelity Service Company, Inc. (FSC), an affiliate of FMR, maintains the Fund's accounting records. The fee is based on the level of average net assets for the month.

(Amounts in thousands except ratios)
5. Expense Reductions.
Through arrangements with the Fund's custodian, credits realized as a result of uninvested cash balances were used to reduce the Fund's expenses. During the period, these credits reduced the Fund's custody expenses by $14.
6. Other.
The Fund's organizational documents provide former and current trustees and officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the Fund. In the normal course of business, the Fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against the Fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.

To the Trustees of Fidelity Phillips Street Trust and the Shareholders of Fidelity Cash Reserves:
In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the schedule 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 Fidelity Cash Reserves (a fund of Fidelity Phillips Street Trust) at May 31, 2009, the results of its operations, the changes in its net assets and the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as "financial statements") are the responsibility of the Fidelity Cash Reserves'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 the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards 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 May 31, 2009 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Fidelity Cash Reserves
On May 21, 2009, the Board of Trustees, including the Independent Trustees (together, the Board), voted to continue the management contract and subadvisory agreements (together, the Advisory Contracts) for the fund for four months, through September 30, 2009, in connection with the reorganization of the Board's new meeting schedule. The Board considered that the contractual terms of and fees payable under the fund's Advisory Contracts involve no changes in (i) the investment process or strategies employed in the management of the fund's assets; (ii) the nature or level of services provided under the fund's Advisory Contracts; or (iii) the day-to-day management of the fund or the persons primarily responsible for such management. The Board concluded that the fund's Advisory Contracts are fair and reasonable, and that the fund's Advisory Contracts should be renewed, without modification, through September 30, 2009, with the understanding that the Board will consider their renewal in September 2009.

Dear Shareholder:
Although there has been some encouraging news in the capital markets this spring, many economic uncertainties remain - including still-weak corporate earnings and sluggish consumer spending - which could call into question the sustainability and overall strength of the markets' recent forward momentum. Financial markets are always unpredictable, of course, but there also are several time-tested investment principles that can help put the historical odds in your favor.
One of the basic tenets is to invest for the long term. Over time, riding out the markets' inevitable ups and downs has proven much more effective than selling into panic or chasing the hottest trend. Even missing only a few of the markets' best days can significantly diminish investor returns. Patience also affords the benefits of compounding - of earning interest on additional income or reinvested dividends and capital gains. There can be tax advantages and cost benefits to consider as well. While staying the course doesn't eliminate risk, it can considerably lessen the effect of short-term declines.
You can further manage your investing risk through diversification. And today, more than ever, geographic diversification should be taken into account. Studies indicate that asset allocation is the single most important determinant of a portfolio's long-term success. The right mix of stocks, bonds and cash - aligned to your particular risk tolerance and investment objective - is very important. Age-appropriate rebalancing is also an essential aspect of asset allocation. For younger investors, an emphasis on equities - which historically have been the best-performing asset class over time - is encouraged. As investors near their specific goal, such as retirement or sending a child to college, consideration may be given to replacing volatile assets (e.g. common stocks) with more-stable fixed investments (bonds or savings plans).
A third principle - investing regularly - can help lower the average cost of your purchases. Investing a certain amount of money each month or quarter helps ensure you won't pay for all your shares at market highs. This strategy - known as dollar cost averaging - also reduces "emotion" from investing, helping shareholders avoid selling weak performers just prior to an upswing, or chasing a hot performer just before a correction.
We invite you to contact us via the Internet, through our Investor Centers or by phone. It is our privilege to provide you the information you need to make the investments that are right for you.
Sincerely,
/s/Abigail P. Johnson

Semiannual Report
As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (December 1, 2008 to May 31, 2009).
Actual Expenses
The first line of the accompanying table provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000.00 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000.00 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. A small balance maintenance fee of $12.00 that is charged once a year may apply for certain accounts with a value of less than $2,000. This fee is not included in the table below. If it was, the estimate of expenses you paid during the period would be higher, and your ending account value lower, by this amount.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The second line of the accompanying table provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund's actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund's actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. A small balance maintenance fee of $12.00 that is charged once a year may apply for certain accounts with a value of less than $2,000. This fee is not included in the table below. If it was, the estimate of expenses you paid during the period would be higher, and your ending account value lower, by this amount.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transaction costs. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds.

Semiannual Report
For the period ended May 31, 2009 (Unaudited)
(Amounts in thousands except ratios)
1. Organization.
Fidelity U.S. Government Reserves (the Fund) is a fund of Fidelity Phillips Street Trust (the trust) and is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares. The trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company organized as a Delaware statutory trust.
2. Significant Accounting Policies.
The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which require management to make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following summarizes the significant accounting policies of the Fund:
Security Valuation. As permitted by compliance with certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 of the 1940 Act, securities are valued at amortized cost, which approximates value.
The Fund is subject to the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, "Fair Value Measurements" (SFAS 157). SFAS 157 establishes a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques giving the highest priority to readily available unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets (level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 measurements) when market prices are not readily available or reliable. The three levels of the hierarchy under SFAS 157 are described below:
Level 1 |
Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities. |
Level 2 |
Prices determined using other significant observable inputs. Observable inputs are inputs that other market participants may use in pricing a security. These may include quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk and others. |
Level 3 |
Prices determined using significant unobservable inputs. In situations where quoted prices or observable inputs are unavailable or deemed less relevant (for example, when there is little or no market activity for an investment at the end of the period), unobservable inputs may be used. Unobservable inputs reflect the Fund's own assumptions about the factors market participants would use in pricing an investment, and would be based on the best information available. |
The aggregate value by input level, as of May 31, 2009, for the Fund's investments is included at the end of the Fund's Schedule of Investments.
Investment Transactions and Income. The net asset value per share for processing shareholder transactions is calculated as of the close of business of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time. Security transactions are accounted for as of trade date. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost. Interest income is accrued as earned. Interest income includes coupon interest and amortization of premium and accretion of discount on debt securities.
Semiannual Report
2. Significant Accounting Policies - continued
Expenses. Most expenses of the trust can be directly attributed to a fund. Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned among each Fund in the trust. Expense estimates are accrued in the period to which they relate and adjustments are made when actual amounts are known.
The Board of Trustees of the Fund approved the participation by the Fund in the U.S. Treasury Department's Temporary Guarantee Program for Money Market Funds (the "Program") through April 30, 2009. The Fund paid the U.S. Treasury Department fees equal to 0.025% based on the number of shares outstanding as of September 19, 2008 to participate in the Program. The fees were amortized over the length of the participation in the Program. The expense was borne by the Fund without regard to any expense limitation currently in effect for the Fund.
Income Tax Information and Distributions to Shareholders. Each year, the Fund intends to qualify as a regulated investment company by distributing substantially all of its taxable income and realized gains under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code and filing its U.S. federal tax return. As a result, no provision for income taxes is required. The Fund is subject to the provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainties in Income Taxes (FIN 48). FIN 48 sets forth a minimum threshold for financial statement recognition of the benefit of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. There are no unrecognized tax benefits in the accompanying financial statements. A Fund's federal tax return is subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for a period of three years.
Dividends are declared daily and paid monthly from net investment income. Distributions from realized gains, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles. In addition, the Fund claimed a portion of the payment made to redeeming shareholders as a distribution for income tax purposes.
Capital accounts within the financial statements are adjusted for permanent book-tax differences. These adjustments have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. Temporary book-tax differences will reverse in a subsequent period.
Book-tax differences are primarily due to deferred trustee compensation and losses deferred due to wash sales.

3. Operating Policies.
Repurchase Agreements. Fidelity Management & Research Company (FMR) has received an Exemptive Order from the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) which permits the Fund and other affiliated entities of FMR to transfer uninvested cash balances into joint trading accounts which are then invested in repurchase agreements. The Fund may also invest directly with institutions in repurchase agreements. Repurchase agreements are collateralized by government or non-government securities. Upon settlement date, collateral is held in segregated accounts with custodian banks and may be obtained in the event of a default of the counterparty. The Fund monitors, on a daily basis, the value of the collateral to ensure it is at least equal to the principal amount of the repurchase agreement (including accrued interest). In the event of a default by the counterparty, realization of the collateral proceeds could be delayed, during which time the value of the collateral may decline.
Delayed Delivery Transactions and When-Issued Securities. The Fund may purchase or sell securities on a delayed delivery or when-issued basis. Payment and delivery may take place after the customary settlement period for that security. The price of the underlying securities and the date when the securities will be delivered and paid for are fixed at the time the transaction is negotiated. During the time a delayed delivery sell is outstanding, equivalent deliverable securities are held for the transaction. The securities purchased on a delayed delivery or when-issued basis are identified as such in the Fund's Schedule of Investments. The Fund may receive compensation for interest forgone in the purchase of a delayed delivery or when-issued security. With respect to purchase commitments, the Fund identifies securities as segregated in its records with a value at least equal to the amount of the commitment. Losses may arise due to changes in the value of the underlying securities or if the counterparty does not perform under the contract's terms, or if the issuer does not issue the securities due to political, economic, or other factors.
Semiannual Report
4. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates.
Management Fee. FMR and its affiliates provide the Fund with investment management related services for which the Fund pays a monthly management fee. The management fee is calculated on the basis of a group fee rate plus a total income-based component. The group fee rate averaged .12% during the period. The group fee rate is based upon the average net assets of all the mutual funds advised by FMR. The group fee rate decreases as assets under management increase and increases as assets under management decrease. The total income-based component is calculated according to a graduated schedule providing for different rates based on the Fund's gross annualized yield. The rate increases as the Fund's gross yield increases.
During the period the income-based portion of this fee was $1,690 or an annualized rate of .07% of the Fund's average net assets. For the period, the Fund's total annualized management fee rate was .19% of the Fund's average net assets.
Transfer Agent Fees. Fidelity Investments Institutional Operations Company, Inc. (FIIOC), an affiliate of FMR, is the Fund's transfer, dividend disbursing and shareholder servicing agent. FIIOC receives account fees and asset-based fees that vary according to account size and type of account. FIIOC pays for typesetting, printing and mailing of shareholder reports, except proxy statements. For the period, the transfer agent fees were equivalent to an annualized rate of .12% of average net assets.
Accounting Fees. Fidelity Service Company, Inc. (FSC), an affiliate of FMR, maintains the Fund's accounting records. The fee is based on the level of average net assets for the month.
5. Other.
The Fund's organizational documents provide former and current trustees and officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the Fund. In the normal course of business, the Fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against the Fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.
Semiannual Report
Fidelity U.S. Government Reserves
On May 21, 2009, the Board of Trustees, including the Independent Trustees (together, the Board), voted to continue the management contract and subadvisory agreements (together, the Advisory Contracts) for the fund for four months, through September 30, 2009, in connection with the reorganization of the Board's new meeting schedule. The Board considered that the contractual terms of and fees payable under the fund's Advisory Contracts involve no changes in (i) the investment process or strategies employed in the management of the fund's assets; (ii) the nature or level of services provided under the fund's Advisory Contracts; or (iii) the day-to-day management of the fund or the persons primarily responsible for such management. The Board concluded that the fund's Advisory Contracts are fair and reasonable, and that the fund's Advisory Contracts should be renewed, without modification, through September 30, 2009, with the understanding that the Board will consider their renewal in September 2009.

* When you call the quotes line, please remember that a fund's yield and return will vary and, except for money market funds, share price will also vary. This means that you may have a gain or loss when you sell your shares. There is no assurance that money market funds will be able to maintain a stable $1 share price; an investment in a money market fund is not insured or guaranteed by the U.S. government. Total returns are historical and include changes in share price, reinvestment of dividends and capital gains, and the effects of any sales charges.
