(‡) Principal amount stated in U.S. dollars unless otherwise noted.
(†) Debt securities (other than short-term obligations purchased with an original or remaining maturity of sixty days or less) are generally valued on the basis of evaluated bids furnished to the Fund by a pricing service recommended by the investment adviser and approved by the Board of Trustees, which service determines valuations for normal, institutional size-trading units of such securities using market information, transactions for comparable securities and various relationships between securities which are generally recognized by institutional traders. Equity securities, including closed-end investment companies and exchange-traded funds, for which market quotations are readily available, are valued at market value, as reported by pricing services recommended by the investment adviser and approved by the Board of Trustees. Such pricing services generally use the security’s last sale price on the exchange or market where primarily traded or, if there is no reported sale during the day, the closing bid price. Securities traded on the NASDAQ Global Select Market, NASDAQ Global Market and NASDAQ Capital Market are valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price (“NOCP”), or if lacking a NOCP, at the most recent bid quotation on the applicable NASDAQ Market. Broker-dealer bid quotations may also be used to value debt and equity securities where a pricing service does not price a security or where a pricing service does not provide a reliable price for the security. In instances where broker-dealer bid quotations are not available, certain securities held by the Fund may be valued on the basis of a price provided by a principal market maker. Future contracts are priced at their most recent settlement price. Short-term obligations purchased with an original or remaining maturity of sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Fund’s investment adviser using consistently applied procedures under the general supervision of the Board of Trustees. Investments in other open-end investment companies are valued at their net asset value each day.

The Fund may hold securities traded in foreign markets. Foreign securities are valued at the market price in the foreign market. However, if events occurring after the close of the foreign market (but before the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange) are believed to materially affect the value of those securities, such securities are fair valued pursuant to procedures approved by the Board of Trustees. When fair valuing securities, the Fund may, among other things, use modeling tools or other processes that may take into account factors such as securities market activity and/or significant events that occur after the close of the foreign market and before the Fund calculates its net asset value.

In September 2006, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (“FAS 157”), was issued and is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. FAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Management is currently evaluating the impact, if any, the adoption of FAS 157 will have on the Fund’s financial statements.

The books and records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. The value of securities, currencies and other assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollars are translated into U.S. dollars based upon foreign exchange rates prevailing at the end of the period.

(††) Amount shown represents units. One unit represents a principal amount of 100.

 

(a) Federal Tax Information (Amounts exclude certain adjustments made at the end of the Fund’s fiscal year for tax purposes. Such adjustments are primarily due to wash sales. Amortization of premium on debt securities is excluded for tax purposes.):

At December 31, 2007, the net unrealized appreciation on investments based on a cost of $16,957,394,720 for federal income tax purposes was as follows:

 

Aggregate gross unrealized appreciation for all investments in which there is an excess of value over tax cost

   $ 899,312,643  

Aggregate gross unrealized depreciation for all investments in which there is an excess of tax cost over value

     (376,278,287 )
        

Net unrealized appreciation

   $ 523,034,356  
        

At September 30, 2007, the Fund had a capital loss carryover of approximately $4,753,778 of which $4,480,283 expires on September 30, 2011 and $273,495, expires on September 30, 2014. These amounts may be available to offset future realized capital gains, if any, to the extent provided by regulations.

 

(b) All or a portion of this security was on loan to brokers at December 31, 2007. The Fund has entered into an agreement with State Street Bank and Trust Company (“State Street Bank”), as agent of the Fund, to lend securities to certain designated borrowers. The loans are collateralized with cash or securities in an amount equal to at least 105% or 102% of the market value of the loaned international or domestic securities, respectively, when the loan is initiated. Thereafter, the value of the collateral must remain at 102% of the market value of loaned securities for U.S. equities and U.S. corporate debt; at least 105% of the market value of loaned non-U.S. equities; and at least 100% of the market value of loaned securities for U.S. government securities, sovereign debt issued by non-U.S. governments and non-U.S. corporate debt. In the event that the market value of the collateral falls below the required percentages described above, the borrower will deliver additional collateral on the next business day. As with other extensions of credit, the Fund may bear the risk of loss with respect to the investment of the collateral. The Fund invests cash collateral in short-term investments, a portion of the income from which is remitted to the borrowers and the remainder allocated between the Fund and State Street Bank as lending agent. The market value of securities on loan to borrowers and the value of collateral held by the Fund with respect to such loans at December 31, 2007 were $1,608,745,423 and $1,662,093,879, respectively.

 

(c) Variable rate security. Rate as of December 31, 2007 is disclosed.

 

(d) Step Bond: Coupon is a fixed rate for an initial period then resets at a specified date and rate.

 

(e) Illiquid security.

 

(f) Non-income producing security.

 

(g) Non-income producing security due to default or bankruptcy filing.

 

(h) Represents investments of security lending collateral.

 

(i) The Fund, through its custodian, receives delivery of the underlying securities collateralizing repurchase agreements. It is the Fund’s policy that the market value of the collateral be at least equal to 102% of the repurchase price, including interest. The repurchase agreements are tri-party arrangements whereby the collateral is held at the custodian bank in a segregated account for the benefit of the Fund and on behalf of the counterparty. Repurchase agreements could involve certain risks in the event of default or insolvency of the counterparty including possible delays or restrictions upon the Fund’s ability to dispose of the underlying securities.

(‡) Principal amount stated in U.S. dollars unless otherwise noted.
(†) Debt securities (other than short-term obligations purchased with an original or remaining maturity of sixty days or less) are generally valued on the basis of evaluated bids furnished to the Fund by a pricing service recommended by the investment adviser and approved by the Board of Trustees, which service determines valuations for normal, institutional size-trading units of such securities using market information, transactions for comparable securities and various relationships between securities which are generally recognized by institutional traders. Equity securities, including closed-end investment companies and exchange-traded funds, for which market quotations are readily available, are valued at market value, as reported by pricing services recommended by the investment adviser and approved by the Board of Trustees. Such pricing services generally use the security’s last sale price on the exchange or market where primarily traded or, if there is no reported sale during the day, the closing bid price. Securities traded on the NASDAQ Global Select Market, NASDAQ Global Market and NASDAQ Capital Market are valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price (“NOCP”), or if lacking a NOCP, at the most recent bid quotation on the applicable NASDAQ Market. Broker-dealer bid quotations may also be used to value debt and equity securities where a pricing service does not price a security or where a pricing service does not provide a reliable price for the security. In instances where broker-dealer bid quotations are not available, certain securities held by the Fund may be valued on the basis of a price provided by a principal market maker. Future contracts are priced at their most recent settlement price. Short-term obligations purchased with an original or remaining maturity of sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Fund’s investment adviser using consistently applied procedures under the general supervision of the Board of Trustees. Investments in other open-end investment companies are valued at their net asset value each day.

The Fund may hold securities traded in foreign markets. Foreign securities are valued at the market price in the foreign market. However, if events occurring after the close of the foreign market (but before the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange) are believed to materially affect the value of those securities, such securities are fair valued pursuant to procedures approved by the Board of Trustees. When fair valuing securities, the Fund may, among other things, use modeling tools or other processes that may take into account factors such as securities market activity and/or significant events that occur after the close of the foreign market and before the Fund calculates its net asset value.

In September 2006, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (“FAS 157”), was issued and is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. FAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Management is currently evaluating the impact, if any, the adoption of FAS 157 will have on the Fund’s financial statements.

The books and records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. The value of securities, currencies and other assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollars are translated into U.S. dollars based upon foreign exchange rates prevailing at the end of the period.

 

(a) Federal Tax Information (Amounts exclude certain adjustments made at the end of the Fund’s fiscal year for tax purposes. Such adjustments are primarily due to wash sales. Amortization of premium debt securities is excluded for tax purposes.):

At December 31, 2007, the net unrealized appreciation on investments based on a cost of $603,802,339 for federal income tax purposes was as follows:

 

Aggregate gross unrealized appreciation for all investments in which there is an excess of value over tax cost

   $ 47,815,886  

Aggregate gross unrealized depreciation for all investments in which there is an excess of tax cost over value

     (13,585,004 )
        

Net unrealized appreciation

   $ 34,230,882  
        

 

(b) All or a portion of this security was on loan to brokers at December 31, 2007. The Fund has entered into an agreement with State Street Bank and Trust Company (“State Street Bank”), as agent of the Fund, to lend securities to certain designated borrowers. The loans are collateralized with cash or securities in an amount equal to at least 105% or 102% of the market value of the loaned international or domestic securities, respectively, when the loan is initiated. Thereafter, the value of the collateral must remain at 102% of the market value of loaned securities for U.S. equities and U.S. corporate debt; at least 105% of the market value of loaned non-U.S. equities; and at least 100% of the market value of loaned securities for U.S. government securities, sovereign debt issued by non-U.S. governments and non-U.S. corporate debt. In the event that the market value of the collateral falls below the required percentages described above, the borrower will deliver additional collateral on the next business day. As with other extensions of credit, the Fund may bear the risk of loss with respect to the investment of the collateral. The Fund invests cash collateral in short-term investments, a portion of the income from which is remitted to the borrowers and the remainder allocated between the Fund and State Street Bank as lending agent. The market value of securities on loan to borrowers and the value of collateral held by the Fund with respect to such loans at December 31, 2007 were $42,544,214 and $42,860,881, respectively.

 

(c) Variable rate security. Rate as of December 31, 2007 is disclosed.

 

(d) Step Bond: Coupon is a fixed rate for an initial period then resets at a specified date and rate.

 

(e) Non-Income producing security due to default or bankruptcy filing.

 

(f) Illiquid security. At December 31, 2007, the value of these securities amounted to $5,010,272 or 0.8% of net assets.

 

(g) Non-income producing security.

 

(h) Represents investments of security lending collateral.

 

(i) The Fund, through its custodian, receives delivery of the underlying securities collateralizing repurchase agreements. It is the Fund’s policy that the market value of the collateral be at least equal to 102% of the repurchase price, including interest. The repurchase agreements are tri-party arrangements whereby the collateral is held at the custodian bank in a segregated account for the benefit of the Fund and on behalf of the counterparty. Repurchase agreements could involve certain risks in the event of default or insolvency of the counterparty including possible delays or restrictions upon the Fund’s ability to dispose of the underlying securities.

 

144A Securities exempt from registration under Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933. These securities may be resold in transactions exempt from registration, normally to qualified institutional buyers. At December 31, 2007, the total value of these securities amounted to $67,311,202 or 10.9% of net assets.

 

ADR An American Depositary Receipt is a certificate issued by a custodian bank representing the right to receive securities of the foreign issuer described. The values of ADRs are significantly influenced by trading on exchanges not located in the United States.

(‡) Principal amount stated in U.S. dollars unless otherwise noted.
(†) Debt securities (other than short-term obligations purchased with an original or remaining maturity of sixty days or less) are generally valued on the basis of evaluated bids furnished to the Fund by a pricing service recommended by the investment adviser and approved by the Board of Trustees, which service determines valuations for normal, institutional size-trading units of such securities using market information, transactions for comparable securities and various relationships between securities which are generally recognized by institutional traders. Equity securities, including closed-end investment companies and exchange-traded funds, for which market quotations are readily available, are valued at market value, as reported by pricing services recommended by the investment adviser and approved by the Board of Trustees. Such pricing services generally use the security’s last sale price on the exchange or market where primarily traded or, if there is no reported sale during the day, the closing bid price. Securities traded on the NASDAQ Global Select Market, NASDAQ Global Market and NASDAQ Capital Market are valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price (“NOCP”), or if lacking a NOCP, at the most recent bid quotation on the applicable NASDAQ Market. Broker-dealer bid quotations may also be used to value debt and equity securities where a pricing service does not price a security or where a pricing service does not provide a reliable price for the security. In instances where broker-dealer bid quotations are not available, certain securities held by the Fund may be valued on the basis of a price provided by a principal market maker. Future contracts are priced at their most recent settlement price. Short-term obligations purchased with an original or remaining maturity of sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Fund’s investment adviser using consistently applied procedures under the general supervision of the Board of Trustees. Investments in other open-end investment companies are valued at their net asset value each day.

The Fund may hold securities traded in foreign markets. Foreign securities are valued at the market price in the foreign market. However, if events occurring after the close of the foreign market (but before the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange) are believed to materially affect the value of those securities, such securities are fair valued pursuant to procedures approved by the Board of Trustees. When fair valuing securities, the Fund may, among other things, use modeling tools or other processes that may take into account factors such as securities market activity and/or significant events that occur after the close of the foreign market and before the Fund calculates its net asset value.

In September 2006, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (“FAS 157”), was issued and is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. FAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Management is currently evaluating the impact, if any, the adoption of FAS 157 will have on the Fund’s financial statements.

The books and records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. The value of securities, currencies and other assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollars are translated into U.S. dollars based upon foreign exchange rates prevailing at the end of the period.

 

(a) Federal Tax Information (Amounts exclude certain adjustments made at the end of the Fund’s fiscal year for tax purposes. Such adjustments are primarily due to wash sales. Amortization of premium on debt securities is excluded for tax purposes.):

At December 31, 2007, the net unrealized appreciation on investments

based on a cost of $2,137,620,402 for federal income tax purposes was as follows:

 

Aggregate gross unrealized appreciation for all investments in which there is an excess of value over tax cost

   $ 78,902,467  

Aggregate gross unrealized depreciation for all investments in which there is an excess of tax cost over value

     (20,279,409 )
        

Net unrealized appreciation

   $ 58,623,058  
        

At September 30, 2007, the Fund had a capital loss carryover of approximately $6,544,259 of which $1,046,616 expires on September 30, 2014 and $5,497,643 expires on September 30, 2015. These amounts may be available to offset future realized capital gains, if any, to the extent provided by regulations.

 

(b) Variable rate security. Rate as of December 31, 2007 is disclosed.

 

(c) All or a portion of this security was on loan to brokers at December 31, 2007. The Fund has entered into an agreement with State Street Bank and Trust Company (“State Street Bank”), as agent of the Fund, to lend securities to certain designated borrowers. The loans are collateralized with cash or securities in an amount equal to at least 105% or 102% of the market value of the loaned international or domestic securities, respectively, when the loan is initiated. Thereafter, the value of the collateral must remain at 102% of the market value of loaned securities for U.S. equities and U.S. corporate debt; at least 105% of the market value of loaned non-U.S. equities; and at least 100% of the market value of loaned securities for U.S. government securities, sovereign debt issued by non-U.S. governments and non-U.S. corporate debt. In the event that the market value of the collateral falls below the required percentages described above, the borrower will deliver additional collateral on the next business day. As with other extensions of credit, the Fund may bear the risk of loss with respect to the investment of the collateral. The Fund invests cash collateral in short-term investments, a portion of the income from which is remitted to the borrowers and the remainder allocated between the Fund and State Street Bank as lending agent. The market value of securities on loan to borrowers and the value of collateral held by the Fund with respect to such loans at December 31, 2007 were $118,154,993 and $120,225,777, respectively.

 

(d) All or a portion of this security is held as collateral for open futures contracts.

 

(e) Represents investments of security lending collateral.

 

(f) The Fund, through its custodian, receives delivery of the underlying securities collateralizing repurchase agreements. It is the Fund’s policy that the market value of the collateral be at least equal to 102% of the repurchase price, including interest. The repurchase agreements are tri-party arrangements whereby the collateral is held at the custodian bank in a segregated account for the benefit of the Fund and on behalf of the counterparty. Repurchase agreements could involve certain risks in the event of default or insolvency of the counterparty including possible delays or restrictions upon the Fund’s ability to dispose of the underlying securities.

 

144A Securities exempt from registration under Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933. These securities may be resold in transactions exempt from registration, normally to qualified institutional buyers. At December 31, 2007, the total value of these securities amounted to $214,372,263 or 10.0% of total net assets.

(†) Debt securities (other than short-term obligations purchased with an original or remaining maturity of sixty days or less) are generally valued on the basis of evaluated bids furnished to the Fund by a pricing service recommended by the investment adviser and approved by the Board of Trustees, which service determines valuations for normal, institutional size-trading units of such securities using market information, transactions for comparable securities and various relationships between securities which are generally recognized by institutional traders. Equity securities, including closed-end investment companies and exchange-traded funds, for which market quotations are readily available, are valued at market value, as reported by pricing services recommended by the investment adviser and approved by the Board of Trustees. Such pricing services generally use the security’s last sale price on the exchange or market where primarily traded or, if there is no reported sale during the day, the closing bid price. Securities traded on the NASDAQ Global Select Market, NASDAQ Global Market and NASDAQ Capital Market are valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price (“NOCP”), or if lacking a NOCP, at the most recent bid quotation on the applicable NASDAQ Market. Broker-dealer bid quotations may also be used to value debt and equity securities where a pricing service does not price a security or where a pricing service does not provide a reliable price for the security. In instances where broker-dealer bid quotations are not available, certain securities held by the Fund may be valued on the basis of a price provided by a principal market maker. Future contracts are priced at their most recent settlement price. Short-term obligations purchased with an original or remaining maturity of sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Fund’s investment adviser using consistently applied procedures under the general supervision of the Board of Trustees. Investments in other open-end investment companies are valued at their net asset value each day.

The Fund may hold securities traded in foreign markets. Foreign securities are valued at the market price in the foreign market. However, if events occurring after the close of the foreign market (but before the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange) are believed to materially affect the value of those securities, such securities are fair valued pursuant to procedures approved by the Board of Trustees. When fair valuing securities, the Fund may, among other things, use modeling tools or other processes that may take into account factors such as securities market activity and/or significant events that occur after the close of the foreign market and before the Fund calculates its net asset value.

In September 2006, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (“FAS 157”), was issued and is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. FAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Management is currently evaluating the impact, if any, the adoption of FAS 157 will have on the Fund’s financial statements.

The books and records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. The value of securities, currencies and other assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollars are translated into U.S. dollars based upon foreign exchange rates prevailing at the end of the period.

 

(a) Federal Tax Information (Amounts exclude certain adjustments made at the end of the Fund’s fiscal year for tax purposes. Amortization of premium on debt securities is excluded for tax purposes):

At December 31, 2007, the net unrealized depreciation on investments based on a cost of $95,294,706 for federal income tax purposes was as follows:

 

Aggregate gross unrealized appreciation for all investments in which there is an excess of value over tax cost

   $ 1,112,025  

Aggregate gross unrealized depreciation for all investments in which there is an excess of tax cost over value

     (4,556,293 )
        

Net unrealized depreciation

   $ (3,444,268 )
        

 

(b) All or a portion of this security was on loan to brokers at December 31, 2007. The Fund has entered into an agreement with State Street Bank and Trust Company (“State Street Bank”), as agent of the Fund, to lend securities to certain designated borrowers. The loans are collateralized with cash or securities in an amount equal to at least 105% or 102% of the market value of the loaned international or domestic securities, respectively, when the loan is initiated. Thereafter, the value of the collateral must remain at 102% of the market value of loaned securities for U.S. equities and U.S. corporate debt; at least 105% of the market value of loaned non-U.S. equities; and at least 100% of the market value of loaned securities for U.S. government securities, sovereign debt issued by non-U.S. governments and non-U.S. corporate debt. In the event that the market value of the collateral falls below the required percentages described above, the borrower will deliver additional collateral on the next business day. As with other extensions of credit, the Fund may bear the risk of loss with respect to the investment of the collateral. The Fund invests cash collateral in short-term investments, a portion of the income from which is remitted to the borrowers and the remainder allocated between the Fund and State Street Bank as lending agent. The market value of securities on loan to borrowers and the value of collateral held by the Fund with respect to such loans at December 31, 2007 were $9,251,042 and $9,449,960, respectively.

 

(c) Step Bond: Coupon is a fixed rate for an initial period then resets at a specified date and rate.

 

(d) Illiquid security.

 

(e) Variable rate security. Rate as of December 31, 2007 is disclosed.

 

(f) Non-income producing security.

 

(g) Represents investments of security lending collateral.

(h) The Fund, through its custodian, receives delivery of the underlying securities collateralizing repurchase agreements. It is the Fund’s policy that the market value of the collateral be at least equal to 102% of the repurchase price, including interest. The repurchase agreements are tri-party arrangements whereby the collateral is held at the custodian bank in a segregated account for the benefit of the Fund and on behalf of the counterparty. Repurchase agreements could involve certain risks in the event of default or insolvency of the counterparty including possible delays or restrictions upon the Fund’s ability to dispose of the underlying securities.

 

144A Securities exempt from registration under Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933. These securities may be resold in transactions exempt from registration, normally to qualified institutional buyers. At December 31, 2007, the total value of these securities amounted to $9,906,692 or 11.8% of net assets.

(‡) Principal amount stated in U.S. dollars unless otherwise noted.
(†) Debt securities for which market quotations are readily available (other than short-term obligations purchased with an original or remaining maturity of sixty days or less) are generally valued on the basis of evaluated bids furnished to the Fund by a pricing service recommended by the investment adviser and approved by the Board of Trustees, which service determines valuations for normal, institutional size-trading units of such securities using market information, transactions for comparable securities and various relationships between securities which are generally recognized by institutional traders. Equity securities, including closed-end investment companies and exchange-traded funds, for which market quotations are readily available, are valued at market value, as reported by pricing services recommended by the investment adviser and approved by the Board of Trustees. Such pricing services generally use the security’s last sale price on the exchange or market where primarily traded or, if there is no reported sale during the day, the closing bid price. Securities traded on the NASDAQ Global Select Market, NASDAQ Global Market and NASDAQ Capital Market are valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price (“NOCP”), or if lacking a NOCP, at the most recent bid quotation on the applicable NASDAQ Market. Broker-dealer bid quotations may also be used to value debt and equity securities where a pricing service does not price a security or where a pricing service does not provide a reliable price for the security. In instances where broker-dealer bid quotations are not available, certain securities held by the Fund may be valued on the basis of a price provided by a principal market maker. Short-term obligations purchased with an original or remaining maturity of sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Fund’s investment advisor using consistently applied procedures under the general supervision of the Board of Trustees. Investments in other open-end investment companies are valued at the net asset value each day.

Loomis Sayles Inflation Protected Securities Fund - continued

 

The Fund may hold securities traded in foreign markets. Foreign securities are valued at the market price in the foreign market. However, if events occurring after the close of the foreign market (but before the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange) are believed to materially affect the value of those securities, such securities are fair valued pursuant to procedures approved by the Board of Trustees. When fair valuing securities, the Fund may, among other things, use modeling tools or other processes that may take into account factors such as securities market activity and/or significant events that occur after the close of the foreign market and before the Fund calculates its net asset value.

In September 2006, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (“FAS 157”), was issued and is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. FAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Management is currently evaluating the impact, if any, the adoption of FAS 157 will have on the Fund’s financial statements.

The books and records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. The value of securities, currencies and other assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollars are translated into U.S. dollars based upon foreign exchange rates prevailing at the end of the period.

 

(††) Amount shown represents units. One unit represents a principal amount of 100.

 

(a) Federal Tax Information (Amounts exclude certain adjustments made at the end of the Fund’s fiscal year for tax purposes. Such adjustments are primarily due to wash sales. Amortization of premium on debt securities is excluded for tax purposes.):

At December 31, 2007, the net unrealized appreciation on investments based on a cost of $17,694,985 for federal income tax purposes was as follows:

 

Aggregate gross unrealized appreciation for all investments in which there is an excess of value over tax cost

   $ 296,911  

Aggregate gross unrealized depreciation for all investments in which there is an excess of tax cost over value

     (110,356 )
        

Net unrealized appreciation

   $ 186,555  
        

At September 30, 2007, the Fund had a capital loss carryover of approximately $177,178 of which $22,173 expires on September 30, 2014 and $155,055 expires on September 30, 2015. These amounts may be available to offset future realized capital gains, if any, to the extent provided by regulations.

 

(b) All or a portion of this security was on loan to brokers at December 31, 2007. The Fund has entered into an agreement with State Street Bank and Trust Company (“State Street Bank”), as agent of the Fund, to lend securities to certain designated borrowers. The loans are collateralized with cash or securities in an amount equal to at least 105% or 102% of the market value of the loaned international or domestic securities, respectively, when the loan is initiated. Thereafter, the value of the collateral must remain at 102% of the market value of loaned securities for U.S. equities and U.S. corporate debt; at least 105% of the market value of loaned non-U.S. equities; and at least 100% of the market value of loaned securities for U.S. government securities, sovereign debt issued by non-U.S. governments and non-U.S. corporate debt. In the event that the market value of the collateral falls below the required percentages described above, the borrower will deliver additional collateral on the next business day. As with other extensions of credit, the Fund may bear the risk of loss with respect to the investment of the collateral. The Fund invests cash collateral in short-term investments, a portion of the income from which is remitted to the borrowers and the remainder allocated between the Fund and State Street Bank as lending agent. The market value of securities on loan to borrowers and the value of collateral held by the Fund with respect to such loans at December 31, 2007 were $3,598,477 and $3,646,553, respectively.

 

(c) Represents investments of security lending collateral.

 

144A Securities exempt from registration under Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933. These securities may be resold in transactions exempt from registration, normally to qualified institutional buyers. At December 31, 2007, the total value of these securities amounted to $83,508 or 0.6% of net assets.

(‡) Principal amount stated in U.S. dollars unless otherwise noted.

 

(†) Debt securities (other than short-term obligations purchased with an original or remaining maturity of sixty days or less) are generally valued on the basis of evaluated bids furnished to the Fund by a pricing service recommended by the investment adviser and approved by the Board of Trustees, which service determines valuations for normal, institutional size-trading units of such securities using market information, transactions for comparable securities and various relationships between securities which are generally recognized by institutional traders. Equity securities, including closed-end investment companies and exchange-traded funds, for which market quotations are readily available, are valued at market value, as reported by pricing services recommended by the investment adviser and approved by the Board of Trustees. Such pricing services generally use the security’s last sale price on the exchange or market where primarily traded or, if there is no reported sale during the day, the closing bid price. Securities traded on the NASDAQ Global Select Market, NASDAQ Global Market and NASDAQ Capital Market are valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price (“NOCP”), or if lacking a NOCP, at the most recent bid quotation on the applicable NASDAQ Market. Broker-dealer bid quotations may also be used to value debt and equity securities where a pricing service does not price a security or where a pricing service does not provide a reliable price for the security. In instances where broker-dealer bid quotations are not available, certain securities held by the Fund may be valued on the basis of a price provided by a principal market maker. Future contracts are priced at their most recent settlement price. Short-term obligations purchased with an original or remaining maturity of sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Fund’s investment adviser using consistently applied procedures under the general supervision of the Board of Trustees. Investments in other open-end investment companies are valued at their net asset value each day.

The Fund may hold securities traded in foreign markets. Foreign securities are valued at the market price in the foreign market. However, if events occurring after the close of the foreign market (but before the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange) are believed to materially affect the value of those securities, such securities are fair valued pursuant to procedures approved by the Board of Trustees. When fair valuing securities, the Fund may, among other things, use modeling tools or other processes that may take into account factors such as securities market activity and/or significant events that occur after the close of the foreign market and before the Fund calculates its net asset value.

In September 2006, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (“FAS 157”), was issued and is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. FAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Management is currently evaluating the impact, if any, the adoption of FAS 157 will have on the Fund’s financial statements.

The books and records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. The value of securities, currencies and other assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollars are translated into U.S. dollars based upon foreign exchange rates prevailing at the end of the period.

 

(††) Amount shown represents unit. One unit represent a principal amount of 100.

 

(a) Federal Tax Information (Amounts exclude certain adjustments made at the end of the Fund’s fiscal year for tax purposes. Amortization of premium on debt securities is excluded for tax purposes.):

At December 31, 2007, the net unrealized appreciation on investments based on a cost of $239,758,538 for federal income tax purposes was as follows:

 

Aggregate gross unrealized appreciation for all investments in which there is an excess of value over tax cost

   $ 14,385,393  

Aggregate gross unrealized depreciation for all investments in which there is an excess of tax cost over value

     (7,338,672 )
        

Net unrealized appreciation

   $ 7,046,721  
        

 

(b) All or a portion of this security was on loan to brokers at December 31, 2007. The Fund has entered into an agreement with State Street Bank and Trust Company (“State Street Bank”), as agent of the Fund, to lend securities to certain designated borrowers. The loans are collateralized with cash or securities in an amount equal to at least 105% or 102% of the market value of the loaned international or domestic securities, respectively, when the loan is initiated. Thereafter, the value of the collateral must remain at 102% of the market value of loaned securities for U.S. equities and U.S. corporate debt; at least 105% of the market value of loaned non-U.S. equities; and at least 100% of the market value of loaned securities for U.S. government securities, sovereign debt issued by non-U.S. governments and non-U.S. corporate debt. In the event that the market value of the collateral falls below the required percentages described above, the borrower will deliver additional collateral on the next business day. As with other extensions of credit, the Fund may bear the risk of loss with respect to the investment of the collateral. The Fund invests cash collateral in short-term investments, a portion of the income from which is remitted to the borrowers and the remainder allocated between the Fund and State Street Bank as lending agent. The market value of securities on loan to borrowers and the value of collateral held by the Fund with respect to such loans at December 31, 2007 were $46,223,232 and $46,840,868, respectively.

 

(c) Illiquid security. At December 31, 2007, the value of these securities amounted to 4,823,303 or 2.8% of net assets.

 

(d) Non-income producing security.

 

(e) Variable rate security. Rate as of December 31, 2007 is disclosed.

 

(f) Step Bond: Coupon is a fixed rate for an initial period then resets at a specified date and rate.

(h) Represents investments of security lending collateral.

 

(i) The Fund, through its custodian, receives delivery of the underlying securities collateralizing repurchase agreements. It is the Fund’s policy that the market value of the collateral be at least equal to 102% of the repurchase price, including interest. The repurchase agreements are tri-party arrangements whereby the collateral is held at the custodian bank in a segregated account for the benefit of the Fund and on behalf of the counterparty. Repurchase agreements could involve certain risks in the event of default or insolvency of the counterparty including possible delays or restrictions upon the Fund’s ability to dispose of the underlying securities.

 

144A Securities exempt from registration under Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933. These securities may be resold in transactions exempt from registration, normally to qualified institutional buyers. At December 31, 2007, the total value of these securities amounted to $17,738,218 or 8.7% of net assets.

(‡) Principal amount stated in U.S. dollars unless otherwise noted.
(†) Debt securities (other than short-term obligations purchased with an original or remaining maturity of sixty days or less) are generally valued on the basis of evaluated bids furnished to the Fund by a pricing service recommended by the investment adviser and approved by the Board of Trustees, which service determines valuations for normal, institutional size-trading units of such securities using market information, transactions for comparable securities and various relationships between securities which are generally recognized by institutional traders. Equity securities, including closed-end investment companies and exchange-traded funds, for which market quotations are readily available, are valued at market value, as reported by pricing services recommended by the investment adviser and approved by the Board of Trustees. Such pricing services generally use the security’s last sale price on the exchange or market where primarily traded or, if there is no reported sale during the day, the closing bid price. Securities traded on the NASDAQ Global Select Market, NASDAQ Global Market and NASDAQ Capital Market are valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price (“NOCP”), or if lacking a NOCP, at the most recent bid quotation on the applicable NASDAQ Market. Broker-dealer bid quotations may also be used to value debt and equity securities where a pricing service does not price a security or where a pricing service does not provide a reliable price for the security. In instances where broker-dealer bid quotations are not available, certain securities held by the Fund may be valued on the basis of a price provided by a principal market maker. Future contracts are priced at their most recent settlement price. Short-term obligations purchased with an original or remaining maturity of sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Fund’s investment adviser using consistently applied procedures under the general supervision of the Board of Trustees. Investments in other open-end investment companies are valued at their net asset value each day.

The Fund may hold securities traded in foreign markets. Foreign securities are valued at the market price in the foreign market. However, if events occurring after the close of the foreign market (but before the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange) are believed to materially affect the value of those securities, such securities are fair valued pursuant to procedures approved by the Board of Trustees. When fair valuing securities, the Fund may, among other things, use modeling tools or other processes that may take into account factors such as securities market activity and/or significant events that occur after the close of the foreign market and before the Fund calculates its net asset value.

In September 2006, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (“FAS 157”), was issued and is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. FAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Management is currently evaluating the impact, if any, the adoption of FAS 157 will have on the Fund’s financial statements.

The books and records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. The value of securities, currencies and other assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollars are translated into U.S. dollars based upon foreign exchange rates prevailing at the end of the period.

 

(a) Federal Tax Information (Amounts exclude certain adjustments made at the end of the Fund’s fiscal year for tax purposes. Such adjustments are primarily due to wash sales. Amortization of premium on debt securities is excluded for tax purposes.):

At December 31, 2007, the net unrealized depreciation on investments based on a cost of $43,423,561 for federal income tax purposes was as follows:

 

Aggregate gross unrealized appreciation for all investments in which there is an excess of value over tax cost

(b) All or a portion of this security was on loan to brokers at December 31, 2007. The Fund has entered into an agreement with State Street Bank and Trust Company (“State Street Bank”), as agent of the Fund, to lend securities to certain designated borrowers. The loans are collateralized with cash or securities in an amount equal to at least 105% or 102% of the market value of the loaned international or domestic securities, respectively, when the loan is initiated. Thereafter, the value of the collateral must remain at 102% of the market value of loaned securities for U.S. equities and U.S. corporate debt; at least 105% of the market value of loaned non-U.S. equities; and at least 100% of the market value of loaned securities for U.S. government securities, sovereign debt issued by non-U.S. governments and non-U.S. corporate debt. In the event that the market value of the collateral falls below the required percentages described above, the borrower will deliver additional collateral on the next business day. As with other extensions of credit, the Fund may bear the risk of loss with respect to the investment of the collateral. The Fund invests cash collateral in short-term investments, a portion of the income from which is remitted to the borrowers and the remainder allocated between the Fund and State Street Bank as lending agent. The market value of securities on loan to borrowers and the value of collateral held by the Fund with respect to such loans at December 31, 2007 were $8,702,693 and $8,826,459, respectively.

 

(c) Variable rate security. Rate as of December 31, 2007 is disclosed.

 

(d) All or a portion of this security is held as collateral for open futures contracts.

 

(e) Represents investments of security lending collateral.

 

(f) The Fund, through its custodian, receives delivery of the underlying securities collateralizing repurchase agreements. It is the Fund’s policy that the market value of the collateral be at least equal to 102% of the repurchase price, including interest. The repurchase agreements are tri-party arrangements whereby the collateral is held at the custodian bank in a segregated account for the benefit of the Fund and on behalf of the counterparty. Repurchase agreements could involve certain risks in the event of default or insolvency of the counterparty including possible delays or restrictions upon the Fund’s ability to dispose of the underlying securities.

(†) Debt securities (other than short-term obligations purchased with an original or remaining maturity of sixty days or less) are generally valued on the basis of evaluated bids furnished to the Fund by a pricing service recommended by the investment adviser and approved by the Board of Trustees, which service determines valuations for normal, institutional size-trading units of such securities using market information, transactions for comparable securities and various relationships between securities which are generally recognized by institutional traders. Equity securities, including closed-end investment companies and exchange-traded funds, for which market quotations are readily available, are valued at market value, as reported by pricing services recommended by the investment adviser and approved by the Board of Trustees. Such pricing services generally use the security’s last sale price on the exchange or market where primarily traded or, if there is no reported sale during the day, the closing bid price. Securities traded on the NASDAQ Global Select Market, NASDAQ Global Market and NASDAQ Capital Market are valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price (“NOCP”), or if lacking a NOCP, at the most recent bid quotation on the applicable NASDAQ Market. Broker-dealer bid quotations may also be used to value debt and equity securities where a pricing service does not price a security or where a pricing service does not provide a reliable price for the security. In instances where broker-dealer bid quotations are not available, certain securities held by the Fund may be valued on the basis of a price provided by a principal market maker. Future contracts are priced at their most recent settlement price. Short-term obligations purchased with an original or remaining maturity of sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Fund’s investment adviser using consistently applied procedures under the general supervision of the Board of Trustees. Investments in other open-end investment companies are valued at their net asset value each day.

The Fund may hold securities traded in foreign markets. Foreign securities are valued at the market price in the foreign market. However, if events occurring after the close of the foreign market (but before the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange) are believed to materially affect the value of those securities, such securities are fair valued pursuant to procedures approved by the Board of Trustees. When fair valuing securities, the Fund may, among other things, use modeling tools or other processes that may take into account factors such as securities market activity and/or significant events that occur after the close of the foreign market and before the Fund calculates its net asset value.

In September 2006, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (“FAS 157”), was issued and is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. FAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Management is currently evaluating the impact, if any, the adoption of FAS 157 will have on the Fund’s financial statements.

The books and records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. The value of securities, currencies and other assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollars are translated into U.S. dollars based upon foreign exchange rates prevailing at the end of the period.

 

(††) Amount shown represents units. One unit represents a principal amount of 100.

 

(a) Federal Tax Information (Amounts exclude certain adjustments made at the end of the Fund’s fiscal year for tax purposes. Such adjustments are primarily due to wash sales. Amortization of premium on debt securities is excluded for tax purposes.):

At December 31, 2007, the net unrealized appreciation on investments based on a cost of $281,081,377 for federal income tax purposes was as follows:

 

Aggregate gross unrealized appreciation for all investments in which there is an excess of value over tax cost

   $ 16,558,519  

Aggregate gross unrealized depreciation for all investments in which there is an excess of tax cost over value

     (4,752,041 )
        

Net unrealized appreciation

   $ 11,806,478  
        

At September 30, 2007, the Fund had a capital loss carryover of approximately $332,729 of which $309,092 expires on September 30, 2014 and $23,637 expires on September 30, 2015. These amounts may be available to offset future realized capital gains, if any, to the extent provided by regulations.

 

(b) Step Bond: Coupon is a fixed rate for an initial period then resets at a specified date and rate.

 

(c) Variable rate security. Rate as of December 31, 2007 is disclosed.

 

(d) All or a portion of this security was on loan to brokers at December 31, 2007. The Fund has entered into an agreement with State Street Bank and Trust Company (“State Street Bank”), as agent of the Fund, to lend securities to certain designated borrowers. The loans are collateralized with cash or securities in an amount equal to at least 105% or 102% of the market value of the loaned international or domestic securities, respectively, when the loan is initiated. Thereafter, the value of the collateral must remain at 102% of the market value of loaned securities for U.S. equities and U.S. corporate debt; at least 105% of the market value of loaned non-U.S. equities; and at least 100% of the market value of loaned securities for U.S. government securities, sovereign debt issued by non-U.S. governments and non-U.S. corporate debt. In the event that the market value of the collateral falls below the required percentages described above, the borrower will deliver additional collateral on the next business day. As with other extensions of credit, the Fund may bear the risk of loss with respect to the investment of the collateral. The Fund invests cash collateral in short-term investments, a portion of the income from which is remitted to the borrowers and the remainder allocated between the Fund and State Street Bank as lending agent. The market value of securities on loan to borrowers and the value of collateral held by the Fund with respect to such loans at December 31, 2007 were $29,350,938 and $29,708,590, respectively.

(i) The Fund, through its custodian, receives delivery of the underlying securities collateralizing repurchase agreements. It is the Fund’s policy that the market value of the collateral be at least equal to 102% of the repurchase price, including interest. The repurchase agreements are tri-party arrangements whereby the collateral is held at the custodian bank in a segregated account for the benefit of the Fund and on behalf of the counterparty. Repurchase agreements could involve certain risks in the event of default or insolvency of the counterparty including possible delays or restrictions upon the Fund’s ability to dispose of the underlying securities.

Loomis Sayles Securitized Asset Fund - continued

 

(†) Debt securities (other than short-term obligations purchased with an original or remaining maturity of sixty days or less) are generally valued on the basis of evaluated bids furnished to the Fund by a pricing service recommended by the investment adviser and approved by the Board of Trustees, which service determines valuations for normal, institutional size-trading units of such securities using market information, transactions for comparable securities and various relationships between securities which are generally recognized by institutional traders. Equity securities, including closed-end investment companies and exchange-traded funds, for which market quotations are readily available, are valued at market value, as reported by pricing services recommended by the investment adviser and approved by the Board of Trustees. Such pricing services generally use the security’s last sale price on the exchange or market where primarily traded or, if there is no reported sale during the day, the closing bid price. Securities traded on the NASDAQ Global Select Market, NASDAQ Global Market and NASDAQ Capital Market are valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price (“NOCP”), or if lacking a NOCP, at the most recent bid quotation on the applicable NASDAQ Market. Broker-dealer bid quotations may also be used to value debt and equity securities where a pricing service does not price a security or where a pricing service does not provide a reliable price for the security. In instances where broker-dealer bid quotations are not available, certain securities held by the Fund may be valued on the basis of a price provided by a principal market maker. Future contracts are priced at their most recent settlement price. Short-term obligations purchased with an original or remaining maturity of sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Fund’s investment adviser using consistently applied procedures under the general supervision of the Board of Trustees. Investments in other open-end investment companies are valued at their net asset value each day.

In September 2006, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (“FAS 157”), was issued and is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. FAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Management is currently evaluating the impact, if any, the adoption of FAS 157 will have on the Fund’s financial statements.

The books and records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. The value of securities, currencies and other assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollars are translated into U.S. dollars based upon foreign exchange rates prevailing at the end of the period.

 

(a) Federal Tax Information(Amounts exclude certain adjustments made at the end of the Fund’s fiscal year for tax purposes):

At December 31, 2007, the net unrealized appreciation on investments based on a cost of $555,719,244 for federal income tax purposes was as follows:

 

Aggregate gross unrealized appreciation for all investments in which there is an excess of value over tax cost

   $ 6,273,827  

Aggregate gross unrealized depreciation for all investments in which there is an excess of tax cost over value

     (2,254,535 )
        

Net unrealized appreciation

   $ 4,019,292  
        

 

(b) Variable rate security. Rate as of December 31, 2007 is disclosed.

 

(c) All or a portion of this security has been segregated to cover requirements on TBA obligations and future contracts.

 

(d) Delayed Delivery. The Fund may purchase or sell securities on a when issued or forward commitment basis. Payment and delivery may take place a month or more after the date of the transaction. 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. Losses may arise due to changes in the market value of the underlying securities or if the counterparty does not perform under the contract. Collateral consisting of liquid securities or cash and cash equivalents is maintained in an amount at least equal to these commitments with the custodian.

 

(e) The Fund, through its custodian, receives delivery of the underlying securities collateralizing repurchase agreements. It is the Fund’s policy that the market value of the collateral be at least equal to 102% of the repurchase price, including interest. The repurchase agreements are tri-party arrangements whereby the collateral is held at the custodian bank in a segregated account for the benefit of the Fund and on behalf of the counterparty. Repurchase agreements could involve certain risks in the event of default or insolvency of the counterparty including possible delays or restrictions upon the Fund’s ability to dispose of the underlying securities.

(†) Equity securities, including closed-end investment companies and exchange-traded funds, for which market quotations are readily available are valued at market value, as reported by pricing services recommended by the investment adviser and approved by the Board of Trustees. Such pricing services generally use the security’s last sale price on the exchange or market where primarily traded or, if there is no reported sale during the day, the closing bid price. Securities traded on the NASDAQ Global Select Market, NASDAQ Global Market and NASDAQ Capital Market are valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price (“NOCP”), or if lacking a NOCP, at the most recent bid quotation on the applicable NASDAQ Market. Debt securities (other than short-term obligations purchased with an original or remaining maturity of sixty days or less) are generally valued on the basis of evaluated bids furnished to the Fund by a pricing service recommended by the investment adviser and approved by the Board of Trustees, which service determines valuations for normal, institutional-size trading units of such securities using market information, transactions for comparable securities and various relationships between securities which are generally recognized by institutional traders. Broker-dealer bid quotations may also be used to value debt and equity securities where a pricing service does not price a security or where a pricing service does not provide a reliable price for the security. In instances where broker-dealer bid quotations are not available, certain securities held by the Fund may be valued on the basis of a price provided by a principal market maker. Short-term obligations purchased with an original or remaining maturity of sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Fund’s investment adviser using consistently applied procedures under the general supervision of the Board of Trustees. Investments in other open-end investment companies are valued at their net asset value each day.

The Fund may hold securities traded in foreign markets. Foreign securities are valued at the market price in the foreign market. However, if events occurring after the close of the foreign market (but before the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange) are believed to materially affect the value of those securities, such securities are fair valued pursuant to procedures approved by the Board of Trustees. When fair valuing securities, the Fund may, among other things, use modeling tools or other processes that may take into account factors such as securities market activity and/or significant events that occur after the close of the foreign market and before the Fund calculates its net asset value.

In September 2006, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (“FAS 157”), was issued and is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. FAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Management is currently evaluating the impact, if any, the adoption of FAS 157 will have on the Fund’s financial statements.

The books and records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. The value of securities, currencies and other assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollars are translated into U.S. dollars based upon foreign exchange rates prevailing at the end of the period.

 

(a) Federal Tax Information (Amounts exclude certain adjustments made at the end of the Fund’s fiscal year for tax purposes. Such adjustments are primarily due to wash sales.):

At December 31, 2007, the net unrealized appreciation on investments based on a cost of $1,215,851,609 for federal income tax purposes was as follows:

 

Aggregate gross unrealized appreciation for all investments in which there is an excess of value over tax cost

   $ 153,382,554  

Aggregate gross unrealized depreciation for all investments in which there is an excess of tax cost over value

     (59,215,895 )
        

Net unrealized appreciation

   $ 94,166,659  
        

 

(b) All or a portion of this security was on loan to brokers at December 31, 2007. The Fund has entered into an agreement with State Street Bank and Trust Company (“State Street Bank”), as agent of the Fund, to lend securities to certain designated borrowers. The loans are collateralized with cash or securities in an amount equal to at least 105% or 102% of the market value of the loaned international or domestic securities, respectively, when the loan is initiated. Thereafter, the value of the collateral must remain at 102% of the market value of loaned securities for U.S. equities and U.S. corporate debt; at least 105% of the market value of loaned non-U.S. equities; and at least 100% of the market value of loaned securities for U.S. government securities, sovereign debt issued by non-U.S. governments and non-U.S. corporate debt. In the event that the market value of the collateral falls below the required percentages described above, the borrower will deliver additional collateral on the next business day. As with other extensions of credit, the Fund may bear the risk of loss with respect to the investment of the collateral. The Fund invests cash collateral in short-term investments, a portion of the income from which is remitted to the borrowers and the remainder allocated between the Fund and State Street Bank as lending agent. The market value of securities on loan to borrowers and the value of collateral held by the Fund with respect to such loans at December 31, 2007 were $242,691,390 and $249,788,040, respectively.

 

(c) Non-income producing security.

 

(d) Represents investments of security lending collateral.

 

(e) Interest Rate represents annualized yield at time of purchase; not a coupon rate.

 

ADR An American Depositary Receipt is a certificate issued by a custodian bank representing the right to receive securities of the foreign issuer described. The values of ADRs are significantly influenced by trading on exchanges not located in the United States.
