22(e)(3) of the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the ``Act'').
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Summary of Application: Applicant filed an application for a temporary
order to permit two of its series to suspend the right of redemption of
their outstanding redeemable securities and to postpone payment for
shares which have been submitted for redemption for which payment has
not been made. The Commission issued an order on September 22, 2008
granting the requested order and is now providing an opportunity for
interested persons to request a hearing.
Applicant: The Reserve Fund (the ``Applicant''), on behalf of two of
its series, the Primary Fund and the U.S. Government Fund (the
``Funds'').
DATES: Filing Date: The application was filed on September 22, 2008.
Hearing or Notification of Hearing: Interested persons may request a
hearing by writing to the Commission's Secretary and serving Applicant
with a copy of the request, personally or by mail. Hearing requests
should be received by the Commission by 5:30 p.m. on November 13, 2008,
and should be accompanied by proof of service on Applicant, in the form
of an affidavit or, for lawyers, a certificate of service. Hearing
requests should state the nature of the writer's interest, the reason
for the request, and the issues contested. Persons who wish to be
notified of a hearing may request notification by writing to the
Commission's Secretary.
ADDRESSES: Secretary, U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, 100 F
Street, NE., Washington, DC 20549-1090. Applicant, 1250 Broadway, New
York, NY 10001-3701.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Brian P. Murphy, Senior Counsel, at
(202) 551-6825 (Division of Investment Management, Office of Chief

a fee at the Commission's Public Reference Room, 100 F Street, NE.,
Washington, DC 20549-1520 (tel. 202-551-5850).
Based on the representations provided by the Applicant in its
application, including those relating to the current extraordinary
market conditions and the actions by the Funds' board of trustees (the
``board'') on September 17th, the Commission issued an Order on
September 22, 2008 pursuant to Section 22(e)(3) of the Act as requested
by the Applicant (the ``Order'').\1\ Under the circumstances described
in the Order, which required immediate action in order to protect Fund
shareholders, the Commission concluded that it was not practicable to
give notice or an opportunity to request a hearing before it issued the
Order and that the Order should be effective as of the date of the
actions of the Funds' board. The Commission is now providing an
opportunity for interested persons to request a hearing.
