1. Organization and Significant Accounting Policies

Western Asset 2008 Worldwide Dollar Government Term Trust Inc. (the “Fund”) was incorporated in Maryland on May 24, 1993 and is registered as a non-diversified, closed-end management investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). The investment objective of the Fund is to manage a portfolio of fixed income securities so as to return $10 per share to investors on or about November 30, 2008 while providing high monthly income. No assurance can be given that the Fund’s investment objective will be achieved.

In accordance with the Fund’s charter documents and approval by its Board of Directors, the Fund intends to liquidate on or about November 30, 2008. Accounting rules require that financial statements for entities in liquidation, or for which liquidation appears imminent, be prepared on a liquidation basis of accounting. As U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for investment companies are materially consistent with the liquidation basis of accounting, the financial statements have been prepared in conformity with GAAP for investment companies.

The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing substantially all (at least 90%) of its assets, under normal conditions, in securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government, its agencies or instrumentalities, securities issued or guaranteed by foreign governments (sovereign bonds) and collateralized in full as to principal due at their maturity by U.S. government securities and zero-coupon obligations of municipal issuers. The market prices of the securities in which the Fund invests are expected to fluctuate with changes in interest rates and the perceived credit quality of such assets. The Fund’s investments in sovereign bonds may be affected by political, social, economic or diplomatic changes in such countries and the Fund’s investment in such securities increases the risk that the Fund will return less than $10 per share in the year 2008. In addition, the Fund’s investment in mortgage-backed securities is subject to the risk that rapid principal repayment, including prepayment, may have an adverse effect on the yield to maturity of such securities.

The following are significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund and are in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”).

(a) Repurchase Agreements.  When entering into repurchase agreements, it is the Fund’s policy that its custodian or a third party custodian take possession of the underlying collateral securities, the market value of which, at all times, at least equals the principal amount of the repurchase transaction, including accrued interest. To the extent that any repurchase transaction exceeds one business day, the value of the collateral is marked-to-market to ensure the adequacy of the collateral. If the seller defaults, and the market value of the collateral declines or if bankruptcy proceedings are commenced with respect to the seller of the security, realization of the collateral by the Fund may be delayed or limited.

(b) Credit and Market Risk.  The Fund invests in high yield and emerging market instruments that are subject to certain credit and market risks. The yields of high yield and emerging market debt obligations reflect, among other things, perceived credit and market risks. The Fund’s investment in securities rated below investment grade typically involves risks not associated with higher rated securities including, among others, greater risk related to timely and ultimate payment of interest and principal, greater market price volatility and less liquid secondary market trading. The consequences of political, social, economic or diplomatic changes may have disruptive effects on the market prices of investments held by the Fund. The Fund’s investment in non-U.S. dollar denominated securities may also result in foreign currency losses caused by devaluations and exchange rate fluctuations.

Investments in securities (such as those issued by Structured Investment Vehicles, or SIVs) which are collateralized by residential real estate mortgages are subject to certain credit and liquidity risks. When market conditions result in an increase in default rates of the underlying mortgages and the foreclosure values of underlying real estate properties are materially below the outstanding amount of these underlying mortgages, collection of the full amount of accrued interest and principal on these investments may be doubtful. Such market conditions may significantly impair the value and liquidity of these investments may result in a lack of correlation between their credit ratings and values.

(c) Security Transactions.  Security transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis.

2.  Investment Valuation

Effective August 1, 2008, the Fund adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157 (“FAS 157”).  FAS 157 establishes a single definition of fair value, creates a three-tier hierarchy as a framework for measuring fair value based on inputs used to value the Fund’s investments, and requires additional disclosure about fair value.  The hierarchy of inputs is summarized below.

·                  Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical investments

·                  Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.)

·                  Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)

Debt securities are valued at the mean between the last quoted bid and asked prices provided by an independent pricing service that are based on transactions in debt obligations, quotations from bond dealers, market transactions in comparable securities and various other relationships between securities.  Equity securities for which market quotations are available are valued at the last reported sales price or official closing price on the primary market or exchange on which they trade.  When prices are not readily available, or are determined not to reflect fair value, such as when the value of a security has been significantly affected by events after the close of the exchange or market on which the security is principally traded, but before the Fund calculates its net asset value, the Fund may value these securities at fair value as determined in accordance with the procedures approved by the Fund’s Board of Directors. Short-term obligations with maturities of 60 days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair value.

The following is a summary of the inputs used in valuing the Fund’s assets carried at fair value:

4. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued the Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 161, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (“FAS 161”). FAS 161 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008. FAS 161 requires enhanced disclosures about the Fund’s derivative and hedging activities, including how such activities are accounted for and their effect on the Fund’s financial position, performance and cash flows. Management is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of FAS 161 will have on the Fund’s financial statements and related disclosures.

and interim reporting periods ending after November 15, 2008.  The Amendment requires enhanced disclosures regarding credit derivatives and hybrid financial instruments containing embedded credit derivatives written or sold by an entity.  Management is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of the Amendment will have on the Fund’s financial statement disclosures.
