JAMES M. HENNESSY
| Dear Shareholder, |
|
As you may recall, in my last letter I described the enthusiasm that we were experiencing here at ING Funds as we worked to bring more of the world’s investment opportunities to you, the investor. |
|
That enthusiasm, I am happy to report, is continuing to thrive. With the New Year, we have launched a series of new international mutual funds, each created to bring more of the world’s opportunities to you. |
|
Meanwhile, we have also heard you loud and clear. Our research tells us that many investors report that they find investing an intimidating and overly-complex endeavor. That is why ING is committed to helping investors across the country cut through the confusion and clutter. “Your future. Made easier.SM” is more than words; they represent our promise to you.
Those two objectives — bringing you more of the world’s opportunities and doing it in a way that is easier for you — are behind the development of the new portfolios. |
| |
According to a recent finding, 58 percent of the world market capitalization now lies outside of the U.S.1 In other words, the majority of investment opportunities are now beyond our borders and we think that The ING VP Index Plus International Portfolio — a broad-based international portfolio — is an easy, single-step method to gain exposure to many of those opportunities. |
|
Meanwhile, the ING VP Global Real Estate Portfolio was developed as an easy way to bring global — international and domestic — real estate opportunities to the variable portfolio investor. Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs) are becoming more and more popular around the world, and this new portfolio seeks to capitalize on that popularity. But again, we’ve made it easy. With just one investment, investors bring the diversification of global real estate to their investment strategy. |
|
One of our goals at ING Funds is to find tomorrow’s opportunities today, and we believe these two portfolios are just the latest examples of that plan in action. |
|
On behalf of everyone at ING Funds, I thank you for your continued support and loyalty. We look forward to serving you in the future. |
Sincerely,
James M. Hennessy
President

The views expressed in the President’s Letter reflect those of the President as of the date of the letter. Any such views are subject to change at any time based upon market or other conditions and ING Funds disclaims any responsibility to update such views. These views may not be relied on as investment advice and because investment decisions for an ING Fund are based on numerous factors, may not be relied on as an indication of investment intent on behalf of any ING Fund. Reference to specific company securities should not be construed as recommendations or investment advice.
International investing does pose special risks including currency fluctuation, economic and political risks not found in investments that are solely domestic. Investments in issuers that are principally engaged in real estate, including REITs, may subject the Fund to risks similar to those associated with the direct ownership of real estate, including terrorist attacks, war or other acts that destroy real property (in addition to market risks). These companies are sensitive to factors such as changes in real estate values and property taxes, interest rates, cash flow of underlying real estate assets, supply and demand, and the management skill and creditworthiness of the issuer. REITs may also be affected by tax and regulatory requirements.
1 MSCI December, 2005

MARKET PERSPECTIVE: YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2005
In our semi-annual report, we referred to mixed markets in which the U.S. investor lost on both domestic and international stocks, with gains in the latter trumped by the rebounding U.S. dollar. In the second half, global equities registered solid gains, although foreign markets ended the 2005 year more convincingly. The Morgan Stanley Capital International (“MSCI”) World® Index(1) calculated in dollars, including net reinvested dividends rose 10.3% for the six months ended December 31, 2005, and 9.5% for the full year. As for currencies, the dollar extended its first half run for the six months ended December 31, 2005, rising 2.1% against the euro (12.6% for the full year), 6.2% against the yen (14.7% for the full year), and 3.8% against the pound (10.2% for the full year). Commentators explained the U.S. dollar’s unexpected strength by pointing to relatively high U.S. interest rates, the re-cycling of oil exporters’ burgeoning wealth into dollar securities, the tax-related “repatriation” into dollars of U.S. corporations’ foreign currency balances, and, regarding the yen’s particular weakness, non-Japanese investors pouring money into the stock market but hedging their currency risk. Each dynamic was losing steam by 2005 year-end.
For more than a year, the main issue for US fixed-income investors had been the unexpected flattening of the yield curve, i.e. the shrinking difference between short-term and long-term interest rates. From June 2004 through June 2005 the Federal Open Market Committee (“FOMC”) had raised the Federal Funds Rate by 25 basis points nine times, pulling other short-term rates up. However, the yield on the ten-year U.S. Treasury Note had actually fallen by 0.71% over the same thirteen months. This was put down to an apparently growing perception in the market that inflation was a problem solved, due to a vigilant Federal Reserve, cheap goods and labor abroad, consistent productivity growth at home and foreign investors’ hunger for U.S. investments. Occasionally in the second half, for example when Hurricane Katrina and Rita affected oil prices, having peaked near $70 per barrel at the end of August 2005, there looked to be filtering through to general prices, the trend seemed about to break. Nevertheless, in the end the forces of curve flattening prevailed. By December 31, 2005, the FOMC had raised rates four more times, oil prices and the inflation scare had subsided and foreigners were still buying record amounts of U.S. securities. For the six months ended December 31, 2005, the yield on the ten-year Treasury rose by 45 basis points to 4.39% (17 basis points for the full year), and on 13-week U.S. Treasury Bills by 93 basis points (180 basis points for the full year) to 3.98%. The returns on the broad Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index(2) and the Lehman Brothers High Yield Bond Index(3) was -0.1% and 1.6% for the six months ended December 31, 2005, and 2.4% and 2.7% for the full year, respectively.
The U.S. equities market in the form of the Standard & Poor’s 500 Composite Stock Price Index (“S&P 500 Index”)(4), added 5.8% including dividends in the latter half of 2005 and 4.9% for the full year, thanks to gains of 3.5% in July and November of 2005. Other months were flat to down and by 2005 year-end, the market, trading at a fairly undemanding price-to-earnings level of about 16 times earnings for the current fiscal year, was definitely struggling. Stock investors were initially encouraged by bullish economic reports and even more by second quarter company earnings figures, which were on average up more than 10% year over year. The optimistic mood lasted into early August of 2005, when the S&P 500 Index reached a four-year high, before drifting back as resurgent oil prices made records almost daily. In September and October of 2005 with Hurricanes Katrina and Rita seldom out of the news, two attempted rallies fizzled. High prices at the gas pump were already here. An expensive winter for heating fuel was certain. Sharply rising factory prices started to be found in local Federal Reserve and purchasing managers’ reports and, with consumer confidence slumping, the word “stagflation” was heard more than once. In spite of this, as November approached, an evidently swift recovery from the Hurricanes Katrina and Rita cheered investors and stock prices powered ahead through mid-December 2005, as oil prices fell back below $60 per barrel, inflation moderated, corporate profits remained buoyant and gross domestic product (“GDP”) growth, at 4.1% per annum, was the envy of the developed world. Yet the market gave back nearly 1.6% between Christmas and New Year, when new reports suggested that the end of the bubbling housing market might be at hand. Rising house prices had encouraged the consumer spending that was largely behind robust GDP growth; spending that is, by people who on average were saving little, if anything.
In international markets, Japan was the shining star of the second half, soaring 33.3%, based on the MSCI

MARKET PERSPECTIVE: YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2005
Japan® Index(5) in dollars plus net dividends for the six months ended December 31, 2005, and 25.5% for the full year, as the market repeatedly broke five-year records amid new optimism. Investors, albeit mainly foreign ones, came to the belief that Japan is re-emerging as a balanced economy and less dependent on exports. Japanese corporations and banks have repaired their balance sheets at last. Rising wages are supporting domestic demand, in addition to an expected end to deflation, seems at hand. European ex UK markets leaped 11.8%, according to the MSCI Europe ex UK® Index(6) in dollars including net dividends for the six months ended December 31, 2005 (10.5% for the full year) and 14.7% in local currencies (27.7% for the full year) to the best levels in over four years, despite the first interest rate increase, to 2.5%, in over five years. Mounting evidence of a recovery in local demand, resilient profits and an upsurge of merger and acquisition activity boosted markets that are not particularly expensive. UK equities advanced 6.4% in the six months ended December 31, 2005 (7.4% for the full year) based on the MSCI UK® Index(7) in dollars including net dividends, concealing a more impressive 11.1% increase in pounds (20.1% for the full year), to the highest in four years. The period was dominated by the effect of five interest rate increases to restrain over-stretched consumers and soaring real estate prices. Yet, in the face of mostly miserable economic reports, and despite terrorist attacks in London over two days in July of 2005, investors, encouraged by merger and acquisition activity, supported an inexpensive market yielding over 3%.

The ING VP Balanced Portfolio (the “Portfolio”) seeks to maximize investment return consistent with reasonable safety of principal, by investing in a diversified portfolio of one or more of the following asset classes: stocks, bonds and cash equivalents. The Portfolio is managed by a Omar Aguilar*, Portfolio Manager, James B. Kauffmann, Portfolio Manager, Mary Ann Fernandez, Portfolio Manager and Shiv Mehta, Portfolio Manager, ING Investment Management Co. — the Sub-Adviser.
Performance: For the year ended December 31, 2005, the Portfolio’s Class I shares provided a total return of 4.24% compared to 4.91% for the Standard & Poor’s 500 Composite Stock Price Index (“S&P 500 Index”)(1), 2.43% for the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond (“LBAB”) Index(2) and 4.00% for the Composite Index (60% S&P 500 Index/40% LBAB Index) for the same period.
Portfolio Specifics: Although the Portfolio exhibited strong stock selection, the equity component slightly underperformed the S&P 500 Index for the year ended December 31, 2005. A modest weighting in small- and mid-cap stocks added to performance, as both groups outperformed large-cap. Stock selection was especially strong in the health care, energy, industrials and consumer discretionary sectors. In the materials and information technology sectors, stock selection was weak and detracted from performance. Sector allocation was slightly negative this year, with gains from an overweight allocation in energy and an underweight in telecommunication services being largely offset by a loss from an overweight in consumer discretionary. While our stock selection in consumer discretionary was strong, our overweight position detracted from performance. The Portfolio benefited from overweights in strong performers Apple Computer Inc. and Valero Energy Corp. Overweight positions in poor performers Dell Inc. and Ford Motor Co. detracted from performance.
The fixed-income component of the Portfolio outperformed its benchmark, the LBAB Index, during the year ended December 31, 2005, with a short duration posture and an underweight to longer maturities. Our underweight to longer-dated corporates was beneficial, as later-dated maturities showed great weakness over the year. An overexposure to asset-backed securities and commercial mortgage-backed securities, at the expense of corporates, was beneficial as both sectors produced excess returns (excess return means the excess over the return from Treasury securities of comparable term). Lack of adequate compensation for credit risk led to an underweight of riskier sectors, industries and issuers. Positions in bank and insurance securities, particularly floating rate preferreds, and lack of exposure in the automotive sectors was a source of positive security selection. As the mortgage sector appeared richly priced, we were largely underweight and our team focused on securities likely to outperform in a rising rate environment and/or an increase in volatility.
Current Strategy and Outlook: As we move into 2006, momentum in the U.S. economy remains strong. Real gross domestic product (“GDP”) growth is likely to decelerate during the year, however, as increases in net exports and capital spending may not fully offset a slowdown in residential investment. Falling gasoline prices have led to lower headline inflation rates, and are likely to take some pressure off core consumer price index (“CPI”) inflation. The risk that core inflation will rise as the expansion puts more pressure on resources, however, still exists. Given this scenario, we believe the Federal Open Market Committee (“FOMC”) will continue raising rates in early 2006. Whether the FOMC stops tightening will depend mainly on its assessment of inflation risk. A sustained expansion and benign wage and price inflation — the most likely scenario for 2006 in our view — should provide a good climate for equity market performance.
While the debate on Wall Street about the relationship of inverted yield curves and recessions is lively, we believe that any sustained inversion will likely be brief and will have fewer implications for the domestic economy than in the past. We have positioned the Portfolio for the potentiality that sentiment will reverse and higher risk premiums will be required by the market. The ING credit team continues to avoid companies with depressed stock prices and underutilized assets on the books. However, we continue to seek out companies that may weaken in sympathy, but have a lower probability of event risk. Moreover, the contribution to duration of the corporate portfolio is less than the LBAB Index. Our mortgage team has constructed a Portfolio designed to offset an increase in volatility and a change in prepayments. Finally, duration is shorter than the LBAB Index.
The equity component of the Portfolio is currently overweight in the information technology, energy and consumer discretionary sectors, and underweight in the health care, consumer staples and telecommunication service sectors. However, overall sector exposures are by design quite close to the S&P 500 Index, so nearly all of our relative performance is driven by individual stock selection.

The Indices have no cash in their portfolios, impose no sales charges and incur no operating expenses. An investor cannot invest directly in an index. The Portfolio’s performance is shown without the imposition of any expenses or charges which are, or may be, imposed under your annuity contract. Total returns would have been lower if such expenses or charges were included.
The performance graph and table do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder will pay on portfolio distributions or the redemption of portfolio shares.
The performance shown may include the effect of fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements by the Investment Manager and/or other service providers, which have the effect of increasing total return. Had all fees and expenses been considered, the total returns would have been lower.
The performance update illustrates performance for a variable investment option available through a variable annuity contract. The performance shown indicates past performance and is not a projection or prediction of future results. Actual investment returns and principal value will fluctuate so that shares and/or units, at redemption, may be worth more or less than their original cost.

The ING VP Growth and Income Portfolio (the “Portfolio”) seeks to maximize total return through investments in a diversified portfolio of common stocks and securities convertible into common stock. The Portfolio is managed by Christopher F. Corapi, Portfolio Manager, and Scott Lewis, Portfolio Manager, ING Investment Management Co. — the Sub-Adviser.
Performance: For the year ended December 31, 2005, the Portfolio’s Class I shares provided a total return of 8.13% compared to the Standard & Poor’s 500 Composite Stock Price Index (“S&P 500 Index”)(1), which returned 4.91% for the same period.
Portfolio Specifics: The Portfolio outperformed the S&P 500 Index over the course of the full year by a wide margin and in 11 out of 12 months. Broad based strength in stock selection, especially within the information technology, energy and consumer staples sectors drove relative performance. Modest value was detracted by our holdings (and lack thereof) in utilities as well as in financials.
Within information technology, the Portfolio benefited from stocks such as Jabil Circuit, Taiwan Semiconductor (“TSM”), Business Objects, and Activision. Jabil and TSM are benefiting from the continuing industry trend towards outsourced manufacturing. Product designers, such as chip companies and packaged product makers (e.g., Hewlett-Packard and Cisco), are increasingly outsourcing their end product manufacturing to foundries and contract manufacturers like these two companies. Activision introduced a series of new video games consistent with the replacement cycle in the video game console arena.
The Portfolio’s energy holdings performed well and confirmed our belief that equipment and service companies were the more attractive business models, the more attractive valuations, and the strongest links to the strength in commodity prices rather than in the large integrated companies like Exxon and Chevron. Halliburton, Schlumberger and ENSCO International provide services and equipment to exploration and production companies and are benefiting from the upswing in capital spending in the sector. Other types of companies we emphasized were independent exploration and production companies, such as EOG Resources, XTO Energy and Plains Exploration & Production. These companies are more focused and niche-like, and more likely to find oil and gas that they can sell at market prices vis-a-vis their larger competitors.
Within financial services, AIG was the biggest drag on performance as it experienced high profile problems with regulators and management teams. The company had to restate earnings in 2005, significantly undermining investor confidence in the stability of the company. The Portfolio was underweight utilities throughout the year as companies in the sector traded at all-time high valuations.
Current Strategy and Outlook: Our current strategy is focused on companies with superior capital allocation, strong competitive position, and operations in industries with very attractive outlooks. We believe key holdings, such as Jabil Circuit, ENSCO International and Halliburton, exhibit strong fundamentals, clear catalysts and attractive valuations.
We believe Halliburton continues to offer upside potential in the energy services space, even after performing strongly in 2005. We believe the stock may benefit greatly in 2006 if management spins off their engineering and construction subsidiary Kellogg, Brown & Root. More broadly, we like other energy services stocks based on our forecast for continued robust spending by producers and refiners on creating new production capacity to meet global demand. This bodes well for drillers like ENSCO, who provide contract drilling services to the oil and gas industry. We believe ENSCO enjoys a strong competitive position due to its state of the art fleet of offshore drilling rigs.
Our technology holdings reflect our belief that the industry is in a maturation cycle and companies are looking to outsource low return-on-capital endeavors such as production and manufacturing. We believe contract manufacturers like Jabil and Taiwan Semiconductor continue to benefit from the growth in outsourcing and are well positioned to increase their already dominant market shares.

The ING VP Growth Portfolio (the “Portfolio”) seeks growth of capital through investment in a diversified portfolio consisting primarily of common stock and securities convertible into common stocks believed to offer growth potential. The Portfolio is managed by Kenneth Bragdon, Portfolio Manager and Richard Welsh, Portfolio Manager, ING Investment Management Co. — the Sub-Adviser.
Performance: For the year ended December 31, 2005, the Portfolio’s Class I shares provided a total return of 9.38% compared to the Russell 1000® Growth Index(1), which returned 5.26% for the same period.
Portfolio Specifics: The Portfolio outperformed its benchmark in 2005, due to favorable stock selection in the consumer discretionary and technology sectors. Apple Computer was the Portfolio’s frontrunner, in both the technology sector and from an overall Portfolio perspective. Strong business momentum, derived from innovative iPod products and a derivative “halo effect” impact on iTunes downloads and iMac computer sales, resulted in higher earnings expectations and outstanding relative price performance. The company ended the year with third-party vendor shortages of the iPod nano and surprisingly strong demand for the new, video-enhanced iPod.
The return contribution of the consumer discretionary sector — the Portfolio’s best performing sector — was led by Internet search provider Google. The Portfolio’s position was increased during the summer and fall, an exposure rewarded by ongoing growth in the market for advertising and paid search. Office Depot, an office product store operator, benefited from improved margins, resulting in upside earnings surprises and higher earnings expectations. Gillette was also a strong performer: in addition to increased dominance in razors and the recovery in battery prices, the acquisition of the company by Procter & Gamble contributed to gains.
The multi-industry and financial services sectors detracted from performance. Tyco was largely responsible for poor results in the multi-industry sector, as the new management’s restructuring effort had appeared to run its course mid-year. Lower earnings expectations, higher operating costs and weakness in its European operations adversely affected the company’s outlook. Poor financial services performance was influenced by Doral Financial. The company created significant uncertainty about its earnings growth rate and underlying business prospects with the filing of its 2004 10-K earlier in the year. As a result of this uncertainty, we exited the position.
Current Strategy and Outlook: In 2006, real gross domestic product (“GDP”) growth is likely to slow from above-trend levels during the latter half of the year, potentially growing to around 3.5%, which is in line with consensus expectations. Although energy prices have pushed headline inflation higher, with the consumer price index (“CPI”) averaging nearly 4% year-over-year since July, core inflation is actually exhibiting a mild disinflationary trend. This suggests the Federal Reserve might stop raising interest rates sooner then expected. The ongoing economic expansion should contribute to the realization of mid-single digit earnings growth this year. We believe that growth stocks should continue to outperform value stocks, as seen in the latter three quarters of 2005. We also believe that our bottom-up process of investing in companies with positive business momentum will continue to generate successful performance for our clients.

The ING VP Small Company Portfolio (the “Portfolio”) seeks growth of capital primarily through investment in a diversified portfolio of common stocks and securities convertible into common stocks of companies with smaller market capitalizations. The Portfolio is managed by a team of equity investment specialists led by Steve Salopek*, Portfolio Manager, ING Investment Management Co. — the Sub-Adviser.
Performance: For the year ended December 31, 2005, the Portfolio’s Class I shares provided a total return of 10.27% compared to the Russell 2000® Index(1), which returned 4.55% for the same period.
Portfolio Specifics: The Portfolio outperformed its Russell 2000® Index benchmark during the past year due primarily to strong stock selection within the financials and energy sectors. Southwestern Energy, Denbury Resources and industrial company Watsco were the largest contributors to performance during the year ended 2005. Southwestern Energy is primarily focused on exploration and production of natural gas, and natural gas as a commodity has been strong. We believe this company will continue to have strong production growth in 2006 and that growth will accelerate. Also, the reassessment of the quality of their acreage in the Fayetteville Shale, which is a promising unconventional gas play, significantly increased the value of the company. Denbury Resources, also a producer of natural gas, has benefited from the strength in the price of natural gas commodity, as well as from improved production. Industrial company Watsco, another significant contributor to results, distributes air conditioning, heating, refrigeration equipment and related parts and materials. The company is expected to experience accelerating revenue and cash flow growth as a result of continued cyclical improvement in the commercial building cycle.
The largest detractors from performance over the year ended 2005 were Avid Technology, Northwest Airlines and InterVoice. Avid Technology, which develops digital media production software, underperformed as a result of a series of earnings disappointments. The company’s acquisition of Pinnacle Systems, which develops digital media software for the consumer market, was also viewed negatively by investors. Northwest Airlines, which we purchased in anticipation of a successful restructuring, eventually declared bankruptcy. The shares were sold well in advance of the bankruptcy filing, but the stock nevertheless detracted from results. We sold out of our entire position well before the stock went to zero. InterVoice, which provides converged voice and data solutions for the network and enterprise markets worldwide, had disappointing results during 2005; however, we continue to hold the stock on a valuation basis.
Current Strategy and Outlook: We believe the Portfolio is positioned well across sectors, with overweights in the industrial, technology, and energy sectors. We believe that our overweight in technology will continue to benefit the Portfolio. We have invested in companies that we think will grow at an accelerated rate in 2006 as a result of strong new product cycles. Our energy holdings are concentrated in the oil and gas drilling and equipment and services groups and are companies whose profitability we expect to remain vibrant even if the price of oil and natural gas declines. Financials, health care and consumer discretionary represent the largest sector underweights. Until there is evidence that the flat yield curve is likely to steepen, we will likely remain modestly underweighted in financials. Our emphasis in the financial sector is likely to continue to be on non-bank financials (insurance and asset management companies) as many small- cap banks, despite the difficulties imposed by a flat yield curve, are trading at significant premiums to book value as a result of an expected consolidation. Although we are currently underweight in the health care sector, we are looking to move to a market neutral stance in this sector as opportunities arise. We are also likely to remain underweighted in sectors driven by consumer spending, such as retail and consumer durables, as the already extended consumer is facing the headwinds of higher interest rates and energy prices.

The ING VP Value Opportunity Portfolio (the “Portfolio”) seeks growth of capital primarily through investment in a diversified portfolio of common stocks. The Portfolio is managed by a team of equity investment specialists led by Scott Lewis, Portfolio Manager, ING Investment Management Co. — the Sub-Adviser.
Performance: For the year ended December 31, 2005, the Portfolio’s Class I shares provided a total return of 6.95% compared to the Russell 1000 Value Index(1) and the Russell 1000® Index(2), which returned 7.05% and 6.27%, respectively, for the same period.
Portfolio Specifics: The Portfolio almost matched its benchmark over the course of the full year, with a substantial improvement in returns coming in the May through December period. Scott Lewis, a senior portfolio manager on the ING Fundamental Equity team with 23 years experience, took over management of the Portfolio in December 2004 and made modest changes to better diversify the holdings and to better utilize the substantial fundamental research effort within ING. Mr. Lewis also repositioned the Portfolio to be more in line with other large-cap value funds.
Underperformance in the first four months of the year was largely attributable to headline-grabbing companies like American International Group, Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae. Each company massively restated their prior year earnings, drew the ire of regulatory bodies, and lost investor confidence. All were sold down either to index weight or to zero. Furthermore, the Portfolio’s holdings in the energy sector in early 2005 did not keep up with some of their industry peers, such as Valero Energy, Marathon Oil, Occidental Petroleum and others.
For the remainder of the year, the Portfolio outperformed by a wide margin almost enough to bring the relative performance for the full year into positive territory. Success was primarily driven by strong stock selection within the consumer discretionary, energy and telecommunication services sectors. Companies such as Abercrombie & Fitch and Best Buy were successful consumer holdings. In both cases, we became very interested after market sentiment turned negative yet, our fundamental research showed us that the catalysts for success were in place and the stocks were underappreciated. Abercrombie & Fitch worked through its inventory issues in the third and fourth quarters and Best Buy was successful with its store reconfigurations and focus on higher-end HDTV and customer service. These gains were partially offset by holdings in two poorly performing publishing companies, Gannett and Tribune. The Portfolio’s holdings in the oil and gas services group (Halliburton, BJ Services) as well as the oil and gas exploration and production industry (Apache, Cabot Oil & Gas) were very significant contributors to results. Valuations and earnings power of companies in these subsectors was, and continues to be, very attractive. Integrated oil companies remain unattractive due to their fixed rate production sharing agreements with host countries.
Modestly detracting from performance over the year was our overweight position in IBM. We continue to believe IBM’s services business is an undervalued asset and will exceed expectations. Additionally, a couple of materials holdings detracted from performance as there were questions about the strength of industrial production during the year.
Current Strategy and Outlook: Our current strategy is focused on companies that feature superior capital allocation, strong competitive position, and operations in industries with attractive outlooks. Key holdings, such as Kerzner International, Plains Exploration & Production, Halliburton, Capital One and Countrywide Financial all feature strong fundamentals, clear catalysts to win market recognition and attractive valuations.
Halliburton continues to offer upside potential in the energy services, even after delivering strong overall performance in 2005. We believe the stock may benefit greatly in 2006 if management spins off their engineering and construction subsidiary Kellogg, Brown & Root. More broadly, we like other oil and gas services stocks based on our forecast for continued robust spending by producers and refiners on creating new production capacity to meet global demand at high current prices. Kerzner International is an owner and operator of high-end luxury casino resorts in the Bahamas, Mexico and Dubai. In targeting the wealthiest customers, they’ve been successful in creating an atmosphere of exclusivity at their key properties and have thus been able to charge premium prices. Additionally, they are unmatched in their ability to negotiate and gain access to the more difficult markets in which to do business around the world, such as Dubai. This provides an enduring competitive advantage for Kerzner.

The ING VP Intermediate Bond Portfolio (the “Portfolio”) seeks to maximize total return consistent with reasonable risk by investing in a diversified portfolio consisting primarily of debt securities. The Portfolio is managed by James B. Kauffmann, Portfolio Manager, ING Investment Management Co. — the Sub-Adviser.
Performance: For the year ended December 31, 2005, the Portfolio’s Class I shares provided a total return of 3.14% compared to 2.43% for the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond (“LBAB”) Index(1) for the same period.
Portfolio Specifics: Evidently accommodation has been removed without hobbling the economy; however, whether the terminal rate on Federal Funds Rate is 4.75% or 5.00% is still open to vigorous debate. The yield curve — which represents the yield on U. S. Treasuries from zero to thirty years — is now very flat. The bellwether ten-year note closed at 4.39% nearly matching the two-year note at 4.40%. The largest rise in U.S. yields occurred with shorter maturities; however, the U.S. Treasury yield on the thirty-year bond actually declined. The widely watched LBAB Index returned 2.43% for the year; yet many sectors witnessed some tough performance. Emerging market debt was the strong winner for the year posting 8.71% of excess returns in 2005. High-yield, however, came in with a comparatively modest 0.47% for the year ended December 31, 2005.
Our major investment themes remained effectively constant throughout the year, and we positioned the Portfolio accordingly. Rising short-term rates with a tightening Federal Reserve indicated a shorter duration posture with an underweight to longer maturities, which helped performance through most of the year. Lack of adequate compensation for credit risk led to an underweight of riskier sectors, industries, and issuers coupled with an overweight to the higher quality asset-backed securities and commercial mortgage-backed securities. The mortgage sector also appeared richly priced and/or technically weak. Consequently, we were largely underweight the sector and our mortgage team focused on securities likely to outperform in a rising rate environment and/or an increase in volatility.
Security selection in the mortgage-backed securities sector was particularly positive for performance as we moved up to a 12% exposure to hybrid adjustable rate mortgages (“ARMs”) instead of traditional pass-throughs by year-end. Our continued underweight of longer-dated corporates was beneficial for most months of 2005. Corporates, overall, gave up 1.15% of excess return (excess return means the excess over the return from Treasury securities of comparable term), but the most damage occurred in the longer maturities. Over-exposure to asset-backed securities and commercial mortgage-backed securities at the expense of corporate bonds also proved beneficial to results as both sectors produced positive excess relative returns. Positions in bank and insurance names, particularly floating rate preferreds, and a lack of exposure in the automotive sectors were sources of positive security selection, which led to the Portfolio’s good performance.
Current Strategy and Outlook: Our outlook did not change during the year ended December 31, 2005, with the exception that the end of the tightening phase is now on the horizon, in our opinion. While the debate on Wall Street about the relationship of inverted yield curves and recessions is lively, we believe that any inversion will likely be brief and will have fewer implications for the domestic economy than in the past. We agree with Federal Reserve officials that “global savings gluts” have better explanatory power for the comparatively low yields on 10- and 30-year U.S. Treasuries than a signal that the economy might soon sputter.
We have positioned the Portfolio for the potentiality that sentiment will reverse and higher risk premiums will be required by the market with “an attendant fall in the price of risky assets.” Indeed, we are keenly aware that preserving capital and receiving adequate compensation for risk are essential elements of successful bond management. Specifically, the ING credit team continues to avoid companies with depressed stock prices and under-utilized assets on the books. However, we continue to look to take advantage of companies that weaken in sympathy but have a lower probability of such event risk. Moreover, the maturities of the corporate portfolio are shorter, on balance than those of the corporate bonds in the LBAB Index. Our mortgage team has constructed a portfolio designed to offset an increase in volatility and a change in prepayments. Finally, duration is shorter than the LBAB Index.

The ING VP Money Market Portfolio (the “Portfolio”) seeks to provide high current return, consistent with preservation of capital and liquidity, through investment in high-quality money market instruments. The Portfolio is managed by David S. Yealy, Portfolio Manager, ING Investment Management Co. — the Sub-Adviser.
Portfolio Specifics: The year 2005 was one in which the Federal Reserve Open Market Committee (“FOMC”) continued its “measured” pace of removing monetary accommodation by raising the Federal Funds Rate 0.25% at each of its eight FOMC Meetings. The Federal Funds Rate ended the year at 4.25%, a full 2.00% higher than the previous year-end and 3.25% higher than when the FOMC started tightening in June of 2004. Rising short-term interest rates were the primary driver of investment performance for money market funds and investors. Another key event in 2005 for short-term investors was the nomination of Dr. Ben Bernanke in October to replace Alan Greenspan as chairman of the Federal Reserve in January of 2006. Dr. Bernanke is an advocate of explicit inflation targeting and therefore the FOMC is not expected to diverge significantly from the current FOMC as far as inflation fighting is concerned.
The ING VP Money Market Portfolio was well positioned to take advantage of the rising rate environment. The Portfolio’s primary investment strategy, which was in place throughout the year, of maintaining a high concentration in interest sensitive floating rate securities and focusing new purchases on very short-term maturities which typically matured prior to or just after the next Federal Reserve meeting added to the relative performance of the Portfolio. Within the floating rate security sector, we overweighed floaters that reset either weekly or monthly as opposed to quarterly, thereby capturing the rate increases sooner. The Portfolio had purchased a limited amount of longer-term maturity securities in mid-2004 which originally added to performance in 2004 but were a small drag on performance this year as the FOMC increased rates higher than was priced in at the time of purchase. Those securities matured in April and May and the proceeds were reinvested in better performing floating rate securities and very short-term securities.
Current Strategy and Outlook: Despite the change in the FOMC language in December, we continue to anticipate additional FOMC tightenings in 2006 in response to inflationary pressures due to tightening labor conditions and the effect of higher energy prices post Hurricane Katrina. Current inflation, as measured by the core personal consumption expenditure (“PCE”), is at the high end of what we believe to be the FOMC’s comfort range and could rise further with the unemployment rate moving below 5.0%. In the near-term, we plan on maintaining our current strategy of focusing new purchases to the next FOMC meeting, maintaining a high exposure to floating rate securities, and making selective purchases in the three-month and under maturity sector where yield levels fully price in 25 basis point increases at each of the Federal Reserve meetings in between. We anticipate having to change our strategy to one focusing more on longer-term fixed rate securities at some point in 2006 as we reach the final stage of the FOMC tightening cycle.

The ING VP Global Science and Technology Portfolio (the “Portfolio”) seeks long-term capital appreciation. The Portfolio is team managed by Thomas P. Callan, CFA, Managing Director and Senior Portfolio Manager, Jean M. Rosenbaum, CFA, Managing Director and Portfolio Manager and Erin Xie, Ph.D., Managing Director and Portfolio Manager, BlackRock Advisors, Inc. — the Sub-Adviser.
Performance: For the year ended December 31, 2005, the Portfolio’s Class I shares provided a total return of 11.78% compared to 4.91% for the Standard & Poor’s 500 Composite Stock Price (“S&P 500 Index”) Index(1) and 7.80% for the Pacific Stock Exchange Technology Index (“PSE Technology”)(2).
Portfolio Specifics: The broader markets were characterized by stronger performance from biotechnology and semiconductor stocks in the second half of the year ended December 31, 2005. The Philadelphia Semiconductor Index experienced strong gains in the second part of the year and finished the period with a return of 11.1% due to stronger than expected PC and handset unit growth. The NASDAQ Biotech Index bottomed in March of 2005, with the removal of Biogen’s Tysabris drug from the market, but made upward progress since that event to finish the 2005 year with a 2.9% return.
During the year ended December 31, 2005, the Portfolio was underweight the information technology and industrials sectors, overweight telecomm services and neutral weight healthcare relative to the PSE Index. Good stock selection in the internet software and services, semiconductors and semiconductor capital equipment industries were significant contributors to yearly performance. Positions in Google, Inc. and aQuantive, Inc. were the primary relative performers, gaining 115% and 182% respectively for the year ended December 31, 2005. Within semiconductors, the Portfolio was underweight the large analog stocks in the PSE Index such as Linear Technology Corp. and Maxim Integrated Products, Inc., which underperformed during the year ended 2005. Positions in semiconductor companies such as MEMC Electronic Materials, Inc., SiRF Technology Holdings, Inc. and Samsung Corp. also contributed significantly to performance during the 2005 year. A zero weight in the early part of 2005 in Apple Computer, Inc. detracted from performance as Apple’s stock rose 123% in the 2005 year.
Elsewhere, strong stock selection and an overweight position in the wireless telecom segment also added to performance. We maintain a positive opinion on the fundamental trends of these companies as we believe wireless substitution is a global phenomenon.
The Portfolio’s positioning in the industrial sector had a neutral impact on performance. An underweight in the sector was offset by good stock selection. Notable contributors were Japanese machinery companies Komatsu and Nabtesco, each of which gained more than 130% for the year ended December 31, 2005.
Despite strong absolute performance in the healthcare sector of the Portfolio, the segment had a negative impact on Portfolio performance relative to the PSE Index. An underweight in biotechnology and poor stock selection in pharmaceuticals contributed to the underperformance. At the stock level, detractors included Incyte Corp, which fell 47% during the year as a result of Food and Drug Administration approval delays, Dyax Corp, which fell 27% but recovered during the second half of the 2005 year and a lack of exposure to Genzyme Corp, which rose 22% after increasing earnings guidance.
Current Strategy and Outlook: With strong earnings growth expected for technology companies, the overweight in the telecomm sector was trimmed during 2005 and the healthcare sector weight was reduced in the fourth quarter 2005. We have also increased exposure to markets outside the U.S., which have been rising due to improving economic growth and the improving health of financial markets. Companies in Japan and Korea have been restructuring and recent global and domestic economic strength has resulted in strong and improving earnings growth. Industrial electronics companies, particularly factory automation, are benefiting notably from these trends. We continue to favor Taiwanese equipment manufacturers due to their significant cost advantages and favorable foreign demand trends. Other global information technology industries of particular interest remain internet services and wireless equipment manufacturers. As we exit the seasonally strong 2005 fourth quarter for technology, which also included very strong performance in Asian equity markets, we are beginning to take profits in some of the positions.

less than 2.0% of total investments.
Portfolio holdings are subject to change daily.
The ING VP International Equity Portfolio (the “Portfolio”) seeks long-term capital growth primarily through investment in a diversified portfolio of common stocks principally traded in countries outside of the United States. The Portfolio is managed by Martin Jansen, Portfolio Manager and Carl Ghielan, Portfolio Manager, ING Investment Management Co. — the Sub-Adviser.
Performance: For the year ended December 31, 2005, the Portfolio’s Class I shares provided a total return of 16.87% compared to the Morgan Stanley Capital International Europe, Australasia and Far East (“MSCI EAFE®”) Index(1), which returned 14.02% for the same period.
Portfolio Specifics: International markets performed strongly in 2005. Accelerating earnings growth in Japan and solid earnings growth in Europe, Developed Asia and emerging markets, combined with relatively attractive valuations, were the key drivers of this strength. This backdrop proved beneficial for our “growth at a reasonable price” (“GARP”) investment approach, which seeks to identify stocks with a combination of attractive growth and valuation characteristics. This investment strategy proved especially successful in Japan, where economic growth and a watermark election strengthened the conviction of investors that Japan is on a course of multi-year recovery. The steady profit improvement in Europe, despite an anemic domestic backdrop, and increased merger and acquisition activity on the continent likewise benefited the Portfolio. In addition to significantly positive stock selection results in Japan and Europe and the successful modest allocation to emerging markets also contributed materially to performance.
Stock selection within sectors is based on customized sector models in combination with fundamental analysis to identify stocks both scoring well quantitatively versus their peers and in which we have a strong fundamental conviction. Results were positive in all sectors with the exception of information technology and consumer staples. The contribution from the financial services sector was especially strong, and stock selection in the telecommunication services and health care sectors also contributed materially to performance. Sector allocation detracted slightly from the Portfolio’s return due to an underweighting in the strongly performing materials sector and an overweighting in the weak telecommunications sector.
At the stock level, the largest individual contributors were concentrated in Japan, and particularly in the financial services sector, which benefited the most from the nascent domestic revival. Our holdings in Leopalace 21 (property development), kabu.com (on-line brokerage services) and Mizuho Financial Group (banking) were important positive contributors. Takashimaya (department store), Sumitomo Metal Industries (steel producer), and Sumitomo Corp (trading company) were other cyclically sensitive names that helped performance. Elsewhere, Hong Kong Exchanges (the Hong Kong exchange operating company) proved to be a successful play on Greater China, while Swiss pharmaceutical company Roche rose strongly in the wake of its effective avian flu antidote. Impacting negatively were Deutsche Telecom, Oki Electric Industry, and Telecom Italia.
Current Strategy and Outlook: The output of our models, supported by fundamental analysis, has resulted in a Portfolio modestly undervalued versus the benchmark, yet consisting of stocks that have on average grown earnings faster than the benchmark over the past few years and are expected to achieve relatively strong earnings growth over the next three to five years. We maintain a modest allocation to selective emerging markets based on their attractive valuations and sustained strong earnings growth. The Portfolio has an overall cyclically neutral positioning, within which the Japanese component emphasizes stocks expected to benefit from an accelerating domestic economy. A modest but recently reduced defensive tilt is evident in our European holdings. We maintain a benchmark weighting in Japan and have financed our emerging markets allocation by underweighting Europe. In our opinion, with leading economic indicators in Japan and Europe suggesting accelerating growth and markets fairly valued, we expect markets to strengthen in the coming quarters.

SHAREHOLDER EXPENSE EXAMPLE (UNAUDITED)
As a shareholder of a Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchase payments, redemption fees; and exchange fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution [and/or service] (12b-1) fees; and other Fund expenses. These Examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in a Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The Examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from July 1, 2005 to December 31, 2005.
Actual Expenses
The first section of the table shown, “Actual Fund Return,” provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this section, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first section under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The second section of the table shown, “Hypothetical 5% Return,” 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.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges (loads), redemption fees, or exchange fees. Therefore, the hypothetical lines of the table are useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
The Boards of Directors and Trustees and Shareholders
ING Variable Portfolios, Inc., ING VP Balanced Portfolio, Inc.,
ING Variable Funds, ING VP Intermediate Bond Portfolio, and ING VP Money Market Portfolio
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the portfolios of investments, of ING VP International Equity Portfolio, ING VP Growth Portfolio, ING VP Small Company Portfolio, ING VP Global Science and Technology Portfolio, and ING VP Value Opportunity Portfolio, each a series of ING Variable Portfolios, Inc., ING VP Growth and Income Portfolio, a series of ING Variable Funds, ING VP Balanced Portfolio, Inc., ING VP Intermediate Bond Portfolio, and ING VP Money Market Portfolio as of December 31, 2005, and the related statements of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the years in the two-year period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the years or periods in the five-year period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2005 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, or by other appropriate auditing procedures when replies from brokers were not received. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the aforementioned portfolios as of December 31, 2005, the results of their operations, the changes in their net assets, and the financial highlights for the periods specified in the first paragraph above, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

The five portfolios that are in this report are: ING VP Growth Portfolio (“Growth”), ING VP Small Company Portfolio (“Small Company”), ING VP Value Opportunity Portfolio (“Value Opportunity”), ING VP Global Science and Technology Portfolio (“Global Science and Technology”) and ING VP International Equity Portfolio (“International Equity”). ING VP Intermediate Bond Portfolio is a business trust formed under the laws of Massachusetts on January 25, 1984 with one portfolio, ING VP Intermediate Bond Portfolio (“Intermediate Bond”). ING VP Money Market Portfolio is a business trust under the laws of Massachusetts on January 25, 1984 with one portfolio, ING VP Money Market Portfolio (“Money Market”).
The following is a brief description of each Portfolio’s investment objective:
• Balanced seeks to maximize investment return consistent with reasonable safety of principal, by investing in a diversified portfolio of one or more of the following asset classes: stocks, bonds, and cash equivalents;
• Growth and Income seeks to maximize total return through investments in a diversified portfolio of common stocks and securities convertible into common stock;
• Growth seeks growth of capital through investment in a diversified portfolio consisting primarily of common stocks and securities convertible into common stock;
• Small Company seeks growth of capital primarily through investment in a diversified portfolio of common stocks of companies with smaller market capitalizations;
• Value Opportunity seeks growth of capital primarily through investment in a diversified portfolio of common stocks;
• Intermediate Bond seeks to maximize total return consistent with reasonable risk by investing in a diversified portfolio consisting primarily of debt securities;
• Money Market seeks to provide high current return, consistent with preservation of capital and liquidity, through investment in high-quality money market instruments;
• Global Science and Technology seeks long-term capital appreciation; and
• International Equity seeks long-term capital growth primarily through investment in a diversified portfolio of common stocks principally traded in countries outside of the United States.
Each Portfolio offers Class I and Class S shares. The two classes differ principally in applicable distribution and service fees. Shareholders of each class also bear certain expenses that pertain to that particular class. All shareholders bear the common expenses of the Portfolios and earn income and realized gains/losses from the Portfolio pro rata based on the average daily net assets of each class, without discrimination between share classes. Differences in per share dividend rates generally result from differences in separate class expenses, including distribution, and shareholder servicing fees.
Shares of the Portfolios may be offered to segregated asset accounts of insurance companies as investment options under variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies. Shares may also be offered to qualified pension and retirement plans outside the variable contract and to certain investment advisers and their affiliates. Class I shares may be made available to other investment companies, including series of the Trust under fund-of-funds arrangements.
Participating insurance companies and other designated organizations are authorized to receive purchase orders on the Portfolio’s behalf.
ING Investments, LLC (“ING Investments” or the “Investment Manager”), an Arizona limited liability company, serves as the Investment Manager to the Portfolios. ING Investments has engaged ING Investment Management Co. (“ING IM”), a Connecticut corporation, to serve as the Sub-Adviser to each Portfolio, with the exception of Global Science and Technology. ING Funds Distributor, LLC (“Distributor”) is the principal underwriter of the Portfolios. ING Investments, ING IM and the Distributor are indirect, wholly-owned

subsidiaries of ING Groep N.V. (“ING Groep”). ING Groep is one of the largest financial services organizations in the world, and offers an array of banking, insurance and asset management services to both individuals and institutional investors.
NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES’
The following significant accounting policies are consistently followed by the Portfolios in the preparation of their financial statements. Such policies are in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for investment companies.
A. Security Valuation. Investments in equity securities traded on a national securities exchange are valued at the last reported sale price. Securities reported by NASDAQ are valued at the NASDAQ official closing prices. Securities traded on an exchange or NASDAQ for which there has been no sale and securities traded in the over-the-counter-market are valued at the mean between the last reported bid and ask prices. All investments quoted in foreign currencies will be valued daily in U.S. dollars on the basis of the foreign currency exchange rates prevailing at that time. Debt securities are valued at prices obtained from independent services or from one or more dealers making markets in the securities and may be adjusted based on the Portfolios’ valuation procedures. U.S. Government obligations are valued by using market quotations or independent pricing services that use prices provided by market-makers or estimates of market values obtained from yield data relating to instruments or securities with similar characteristics.
Securities and assets for which market quotations are not readily available (which may include certain restricted securities, which are subject to limitations as to their sale) are valued at their fair values as determined in good faith by or under the supervision of the Portfolios’ Board of Directors/Trustees (“Board”), in accordance with methods that are specifically authorized by the Board. Securities traded on exchanges, including foreign exchanges, which close earlier than the time that a Portfolio calculates its net asset value (“NAV”) may also be valued at their fair values as determined in good faith by or under the supervision of a Portfolio’s Board, in accordance with methods that are specifically authorized by the Board. The value of a foreign security traded on an exchange outside the United States is generally based on its price on the principal foreign exchange where it trades as of the time the Portfolio determines its NAV or if the foreign exchange closes prior to the time the Portfolio determines its NAV, the most recent closing price of the foreign security on its principal exchange. Trading in certain non-U.S. securities may not take place on all days on which the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) is open. Further, trading takes place in various foreign markets on days on which the NYSE is not open. Consequently, the calculation of the Portfolio’s NAV may not take place contemporaneously with the determination of the prices of securities held by the Portfolio in foreign securities markets. Further, the value of the Portfolio’s assets may be significantly affected by foreign trading on days when a shareholder cannot purchase or redeem shares of the Portfolio. In calculating the Portfolio’s NAV, foreign securities denominated in foreign currency are converted to U.S. dollar equivalents. If an event occurs after the time at which the market for foreign securities held by the Portfolio closes but before the time that a Portfolio’s NAV is calculated, such event may cause the closing price on the foreign exchange to not represent a readily available reliable market value quotation for such securities at the time a Portfolio determines its NAV. In such a case, the Portfolio will use the fair value of such securities as determined under a Portfolio’s valuation procedures. Events after the close of trading on a foreign market that could require the Portfolio to fair value some or all of its foreign securities include, among others, securities trading in the U.S. and other markets, corporate announcements, natural and other disasters, and political and other events. Among other elements of analysis in the determination of a security’s fair value, the Board has authorized the use of one or more independent research services to assist with such determinations. An independent research service may use statistical analyses and quantitative models to help determine fair value as of the time a Portfolio calculates its NAV. There can be no assurance that such models accurately reflect the behavior of the applicable markets or the effect of the behavior of such markets on the fair value of securities, or that such markets will continue to behave in a fashion that is consistent with such models. Unlike the closing price of a security on an exchange, fair value determinations employ elements of judgment. Consequently, the fair value assigned to a security may not represent the actual value that a Portfolio could obtain if it were to sell the security at the time of the close of
45
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2005 (CONTINUED)
NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
the NYSE. Pursuant to procedures adopted by the Board, the Portfolio is not obligated to use the fair valuations suggested by any research service, and valuation recommendations provided by such research services may be overridden if other events have occurred or if other fair valuations are determined in good faith to be more accurate. Unless an event is such that it causes a Portfolio to determine that the closing prices for one or more securities do not represent readily available reliable market value quotations at the time the Portfolio determines its NAV, events that occur between the time of the close of the foreign market on which they are traded and the close of regular trading on the NYSE will not be reflected in the Portfolio’s NAV. Investments in securities maturing in 60 days or less at the date of valuation are valued at amortized cost, which, when combined with accrued interest, approximates market value.
B. Security Transactions and Revenue Recognition. Securities transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Realized gains and losses are reported on the basis of identified cost of securities sold. Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, or for certain foreign securities, when the information becomes available to the Portfolios. Premium amortization and discount accretion are determined by the effective yield method.
C. Foreign Currency Translation. The books and records of the Portfolios are maintained in U.S. dollars. Any foreign currency amounts are translated into U.S. dollars on the following basis:
(1) Market value of investment securities, other assets and liabilities — at the exchange rates prevailing at the end of the day.
(2) Purchases and sales of investment securities, income and expenses — at the rates of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions.
Although the net assets and the market values are presented at the foreign exchange rates at the end of the day, the Portfolios do not isolate the portion of the results of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from the fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities held. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gains or losses from investments. For securities, which are subject to foreign withholding tax upon disposition, liabilities are recorded on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities for the estimated tax withholding based on the securities’ current market value. Upon disposition, realized gains or losses on such securities are recorded net of foreign withholding tax.
Reported net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from sales of foreign currencies, currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest, and foreign withholding taxes recorded on a Portfolio’s books, and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses arise from changes in the value of assets and liabilities other than investments in securities at fiscal year end, resulting from changes in the exchange rate. Foreign security and currency transactions may involve certain considerations and risks not typically associated with investing in U.S. companies and U.S. Government securities. These risks include, but are not limited to, revaluation of currencies and future adverse political and economic developments, which could cause securities and their markets to be less liquid and prices more volatile than those of comparable U.S. companies and U.S. Government securities.
D. Foreign Currency Transactions and Futures Contracts. Certain Portfolios may enter into foreign currency exchange transactions to convert to and from different foreign currencies and to and from the U.S. dollar in connection with the planned purchases or sales of securities. When entering into a currency forward contract, a Portfolio agrees to receive or deliver a fixed quantity of foreign currency for an agreed-upon price on an agreed future date. The Portfolios either enter into these transactions on a spot basis at the spot rate prevailing in the foreign currency exchange market or use forward foreign currency contracts to purchase or sell foreign currencies. When the contract is fulfilled or closed, gains or losses are realized. Until then, the gain or loss is included in unrealized appreciation or depreciation. Risks may arise upon entering into forward contracts from the potential inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their forward contracts and from unanticipated movements in the value of foreign currencies relative to the U.S. dollar.
Each Portfolio, with the exception of Money Market, may enter into futures contracts involving foreign currency, interest rates, securities and securities indices. A futures contract obligates the seller of the contract to deliver and the purchaser
46
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2005 (CONTINUED)
NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
of the contract to take delivery of the type of foreign currency, financial instrument or security called for in the contract at a specified future time for a specified price. Upon entering into such a contract, a Portfolio is required to deposit and maintain as collateral such initial margin as required by the exchange on which the contract is traded. Pursuant to the contract, a Portfolio agrees to receive from or pay to the broker an amount equal to the daily fluctuations in the value of the contract. Such receipts or payments are known as variation margins and are recorded as unrealized gains or losses by the Portfolio. When the contract is closed, the Portfolio records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed.
E. Distributions to Shareholders. The Portfolios record distributions to their shareholders on the ex-dividend date. Balanced, Growth, Small Company, Value Opportunity, Money Market and Global Science and Technology Portfolios declare and pay dividends annually. Growth and Income and Intermediate Bond Portfolios declare and pay dividends semi-annually. The Portfolios may make distributions on a more frequent basis to comply with the distribution requirements of the Internal Revenue Code. The characteristics of income and gains to be distributed are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for investment companies.
F. Federal Income Taxes. It is the policy of the Portfolios to comply with subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code and related excise tax provisions applicable to requlated investment companies and to distribute substantially all of their net investment income and any net realized capital gains to their shareholders. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required. No capital gain distributions shall be made until any capital loss carryforwards have been fully utilized or expired.
G. Use of Estimates. Management of the Portfolios has made certain estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of assets, liabilities, income, and expenses to prepare these financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for investment companies. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
H. Repurchase Agreements. Each Portfolio may invest in repurchase agreements only with government securities dealers recognized by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. Under such agreements, the seller of the security agrees to repurchase it at a mutually agreed upon time and price. The resale price is in excess of the purchase price and reflects an agreed upon interest rate for the period of time the agreement is outstanding. The period of the repurchase agreements is usually short, from overnight to one week, while the underlying securities generally have longer maturities. Each Portfolio will receive as collateral securities acceptable to it whose market value is equal to at least 100% of the carrying amount of the repurchase agreements, plus accrued interest, being invested by the Portfolio. The underlying collateral is valued daily on a mark-to-market basis to assure that the value, including accrued interest is at least equal to the repurchase price. There would be potential loss to the Portfolio in the event the Portfolio is delayed or prevented from exercising its right to dispose of the collateral, and it might incur disposition costs in liquidating the collateral.
I. Securities Lending. Each Portfolio has the option to temporarily loan up to 30% of its total assets to brokers, dealers or other financial institutions in exchange for a negotiated lender’s fee. The borrower is required to fully collateralize the loans with cash or U.S. Government securities. Generally, in the event of counterparty default, a Portfolio has the right to use collateral to offset losses incurred. There would be potential loss to the Portfolio in the event the Portfolio is delayed or prevented from exercising its right to dispose of the collateral. A Portfolio bears the risk of loss with respect to the investment of collateral. Engaging in securities lending could have a leveraging effect, which may intensify the credit, market and other risks associated with investing in a Portfolio.
J. Illiquid and Restricted Securities. The Portfolios may not invest more than 15% (10% for Money Market) of their net assets in illiquid securities. Illiquid securities are not readily marketable. Disposing of illiquid investments may involve time-consuming negotiation and legal expenses, and it may be difficult or impossible for the Portfolios to sell them promptly at an acceptable price. The Portfolios may also invest in restricted securities, which include those sold under Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933 (“1933 Act”) or securities offered pursuant to Section 4(2) of the 1933 Act, and/or are subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale and may not be publicly sold without registration under the 1933 Act. Certain
47
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2005 (CONTINUED)
NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
restricted securities may be considered liquid pursuant to guidelines approved by the Board or may be deemed to be illiquid because they may not be readily marketable. Illiquid and restricted securities are valued using market quotations when readily available. In the absence of market quotations, the securities are valued based upon their fair value determined under procedures approved by the Board.
K. Delayed Delivery Transactions. Each Portfolio may purchase or sell securities on a when-issued or forward commitment basis. The price of the underlying securities and date when the securities will be delivered and paid for are fixed at the time the transaction is negotiated. The market value of such is identified in the Portfolios’ Portfolio of Investments. Losses may arise due to changes in the market value of the securities or from the inability of counterparties to meet the terms of the contract. In connection with such purchases, the Portfolios are required to hold liquid assets as collateral with the Portfolios’ custodian sufficient to cover the purchase price.
L. Mortgage Dollar Roll Transactions. Balanced, Growth and Income, Intermediate Bond and Money Market Portfolios may engage in dollar roll transactions with respect to mortgage-backed securities issued by Government National Mortgage Association, Federal National Mortgage Association and Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corp. In a dollar roll transaction, a Portfolio sells a mortgage-backed security to a financial institution, such as a bank or broker/dealer, and simultaneously agrees to repurchase a substantially similar (i.e., same type, coupon, and maturity) security from the institution on a delayed delivery basis at an agreed upon price. The mortgage-backed securities that are repurchased will bear the same interest rate as those sold, but generally will be collateralized by different pools of mortgages with different prepayment histories. The Portfolios account for dollar roll transactions as purchases and sales.
M. Options Contracts. Each Portfolio, with the exception of Money Market, may purchase put and call options and may write (sell) put options and covered call options. The Portfolios may engage in option transactions as a hedge against adverse movements in the value of portfolio holdings or to increase market exposure. Option contracts are valued daily and unrealized gains or losses are recorded based upon the last sales price on the principal exchange on which the options are traded. The Portfolios will realize a gain or loss upon the expiration or closing of the option contract. When an option is exercised, the proceeds on sales of the underlying security for a written call option, the purchase cost of the security for a written put option, or the cost of the security for a purchased put or call option is adjusted by the amount of premium received or paid. Realized and unrealized gains or losses on option contracts are reflected in the accompanying financial statements. The risk in writing a call option is that the Portfolios give up the opportunity for profit if the market price of the security increases and the option is exercised. The risk in writing a put option is that the Portfolios may incur a loss if the market price of the security decreases and the option is exercised. The risk in buying an option is that the Portfolios pay a premium whether or not the option is exercised. Risks may also arise from an illiquid secondary market or from the inability of counterparties to meet the terms of the contract.
N. Swap Contracts. Each Portfolio, with the exception of Money Market, may enter into interest rate swaps, currency swaps and other types of swap agreements, including swaps on securities and indices. A swap is an agreement between two parties pursuant to which each party agrees to make one or more payments to the other on regularly scheduled dates over a stated term, based on different interest rates, currency exchange rates, security prices, the prices or rates of other types of financial instruments or assets or the levels of specified indices. During the term of the swap, changes in the value of the swap are recognized as unrealized appreciation or depreciation.

NOTE 8 — LINE OF CREDIT
The Portfolios, in addition to certain other funds managed by the Investment Manager, have entered into an unsecured committed revolving line of credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement “) with a syndicate of banks led by Citibank, N.A. for an aggregate amount of $100,000,000. The proceeds may be used only to: (1) temporarily finance the purchase and sale of securities; (2) finance the redemption of shares of an investor in the funds; and (3) enable the funds to meet other emergency expenses as defined in the Credit Agreement. The funds to which the line of credit is available pay a commitment fee equal to 0.09% per annum on the daily unused portion of the committed line amount. Each of the Portfolios will pay its pro rata share of both the agent and commitment fee. Generally, borrowings under the Credit Agreement accrue interest at the Federal Funds Rate plus a specified margin. Repayments generally must be made within 30 days after the date of a revolving credit advance. The following Portfolios utilized the line of credit during the year ended December 31, 2005:

NOTE 11 — SECURITIES LENDING
Under an agreement with The Bank of New York (“BNY”), the Portfolios can lend their securities to approved brokers, dealers and other financial institutions. Loans are collateralized by cash and U.S. Government securities. The collateral must be in an amount equal to at least 105% of the market value of non-U.S. securities loaned and 102% of the market value of U.S. securities loaned. The cash collateral received is invested in approved investments as defined in the Securities Lending Agreement with BNY (the “Agreement”). The securities purchased with cash collateral received are reflected in the Portfolio of Investments. Generally, in the event of counterparty default, the Portfolios have the right to use the collateral to offset losses incurred. The Agreement contains certain guarantees by BNY in the event of counterparty default and/or a borrower’s failure to return a loaned security, however there would be a potential loss to the Portfolios in the event the Portfolios are delayed or prevented from exercising their right to dispose of the collateral. The Portfolios bear the risk of loss with respect to the investment of collateral. Engaging in securities lending could have a leveraging effect, which may intensify the credit, market and other risks associated with investing in a Portfolio. At December 31, 2005, the Portfolios had securities on loan with the following market values:
| | Value of Securities Loaned | | Value of Collateral | |
Balanced | | $225,842,956 | | $231,954,000 | |

Global Science and Technology | | 17,686,387 | | 18,348,000 | |
NOTE 12 — FEDERAL INCOME TAXES
The amount of distributions from net investment income and net realized capital gains are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for investment companies. These book/tax differences may be either temporary or permanent. Permanent differences are reclassified within the capital accounts based on their federal tax-basis treatment; temporary differences are not reclassified. Key differences include the treatment of short-term capital gains, foreign currency transactions, and wash sale deferrals. Distributions in excess of net investment income and/or net realized capital gains for tax purposes are reported as distributions of paid-in capital.
The following permanent tax differences have been reclassified as of December 31, 2005:
| | Paid-in Capital | | Undistributed Net Investment Income On Investments | | Accumulated Net Realized Gains/(Losses) | |
Balanced | | $ | — | | $ 659,623 | | | $ (659,623 | ) | |

NOTE 14 — INFORMATION REGARDING TRADING OF ING’S U.S. MUTUAL FUNDS
In 2004 ING Investments reported to the Boards of Directors/Trustees (the “Boards”) of the ING Funds that, like many U.S. financial services companies, ING Investments and certain of its U.S. affiliates have received informal and formal requests for information since September 2003 from various governmental and self-regulatory agencies in connection with investigations related to mutual funds and variable insurance products. ING Investments has advised the Boards that it and its affiliates have cooperated fully with each request.
In addition to responding to regulatory and governmental requests, ING Investments reported that management of U.S. affiliates of ING Groep N.V., including ING Investments (collectively, “ING”), on their own initiative, have conducted, through independent special counsel and a national accounting firm, an extensive internal review of trading in ING insurance, retirement, and mutual fund products. The goal of this review was to identify any instances of inappropriate trading in those products by third parties or by ING investment professionals and other ING personnel. ING’s internal review related to mutual fund trading is now substantially completed. ING has reported that, of the millions of customer relationships that ING maintains, the internal review identified several isolated arrangements allowing third parties to engage in frequent trading of mutual funds within ING’s variable insurance and mutual fund products, and identified other circumstances where frequent trading occurred, despite measures taken by ING intended to combat market timing. ING further reported that each of these arrangements has been terminated and fully disclosed to regulators. The results of the internal review were also reported to the independent members of the Board.
ING Investments has advised the Board that most of the identified arrangements were initiated prior to ING’s acquisition of the businesses in question in the U.S. ING Investments further reported that the companies in question did not receive special benefits in return for any of these arrangements, which have all been terminated.
Based on the internal review, ING Investments has advised the Board that the identified arrangements do not represent a systemic problem in any of the companies that were involved.
In September 2005, ING Funds Distributor, LLC (“IFD”), the distributor of certain ING Funds, settled an administrative proceeding with the NASD regarding three arrangements, dating from 1995, 1996 and 1998, under which the administrator to the then-Pilgrim Funds, which subsequently became part of the ING Funds, entered into formal and informal arrangements that permitted frequent trading. Under the terms of the Letter of Acceptance, Waiver and Consent (“AWC”) with the NASD, under which IFD neither admitted nor denied the allegations or findings, IFD consented to the following sanctions: (i) a censure; (ii) a fine of $1.5 million; (iii) restitution of approximately $1.44 million to certain ING Funds for losses attributable to excessive trading described in the AWC; and (iv) agreement to make certification to NASD regarding the review and establishment of certain procedures.
In addition to the arrangements discussed above, in 2004 ING Investments reported to the Board that, at that time, these instances include the following, in addition to the arrangements subject to the AWC discussed above:
• Aeltus Investment Management, Inc. (a predecessor entity to ING Investment Management Co.) has identified two investment professionals who engaged in extensive frequent trading in certain ING Funds. One was subsequently terminated for cause and incurred substantial financial penalties in connection with this conduct and the second has been disciplined.
• ReliaStar Life Insurance Company (“ReliaStar”) entered into agreements seven years ago permitting the owner of policies issued by the insurer to engage in frequent trading and to submit orders until 4pm Central Time. In 2001 ReliaStar also entered into a selling agreement with a broker-dealer that engaged in frequent trading. Employees of ING affiliates were terminated and/or disciplined in connection with these matters.
• In 1998, Golden American Life Insurance Company entered into arrangements permitting a broker-dealer to frequently trade up to certain specific limits in a fund available in an ING variable annuity product. No employee responsible for this arrangement remains at the company.
For additional information regarding these matters, you may consult the Form 8-K and Form 8-K/A for each of four life insurance companies, ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company, ING Life Insurance and Annuity Company, ING Insurance Company of

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2005 (CONTINUED)
NOTE 14 — INFORMATION REGARDING TRADING OF ING’S U.S. MUTUAL FUNDS (continued)
America, and ReliaStar Life Insurance Company of New York, each filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on October 29, 2004 and September 8, 2004. These Forms 8-K and Forms 8-K/A can be accessed through the SEC’s Web site at http://www.sec.gov. Despite the extensive internal review conducted through independent special counsel and a national accounting firm, there can be no assurance that the instances of inappropriate trading reported to the Board are the only instances of such trading respecting the ING Funds.
ING Investments reported to the Board that ING is committed to conducting its business with the highest standards of ethical conduct with zero tolerance for noncompliance. Accordingly, ING Investments advised the Board that ING management was disappointed that its voluntary internal review identified these situations. Viewed in the context of the breadth and magnitude of its U.S. business as a whole, ING management does not believe that ING’s acquired companies had systemic ethical or compliance issues in these areas. Nonetheless, ING Investments reported that given ING’s refusal to tolerate any lapses, it has taken the steps noted below, and will continue to seek opportunities to further strengthen the internal controls of its affiliates.
• ING has agreed with the ING Funds to indemnify and hold harmless the ING Funds from all damages resulting from wrongful conduct by ING or its employees or from ING’s internal investigation, any investigations conducted by any governmental or self-regulatory agencies, litigation or other formal proceedings, including any proceedings by the Securities and Exchange Commission. ING Investments reported to the Board that ING management believes that the total amount of any indemnification obligations will not be material to ING or its U.S. business.
• ING updated its Code of Conduct for employees reinforcing its employees’ obligation to conduct personal trading activity consistent with the law, disclosed limits, and other requirements.
• The ING Funds, upon a recommendation from ING, updated their respective Codes of Ethics applicable to investment professionals with ING entities and certain other fund personnel, requiring such personnel to pre-clear any purchases or sales of ING Funds that are not systematic in nature (i.e., dividend reinvestment), and imposing minimum holding periods for shares of ING Funds.
• ING instituted excessive trading policies for all customers in its variable insurance and retirement products and for shareholders of the ING Funds sold to the public through financial intermediaries. ING does not make exceptions to these policies.
• ING reorganized and expanded its U.S. Compliance Department, and created an Enterprise Compliance team to enhance controls and consistency in regulatory compliance.
As has been widely reported in the media, the New York Attorney General’s office (“NYAG”) is conducting broad investigations regarding insurance quoting and brokerage practices. ING U.S. has been subpoenaed in this regard, and is cooperating fully with these NYAG requests for information.
ING U.S. believes that its practices are consistent with our business principles and our commitment to our customers.
At this time, in light of the current regulatory factors, ING U.S. is actively engaged in reviewing whether any modifications in our practices are appropriate for the future.
There can be no assurance that these matters, or the adverse publicity associated with them, will not result in increased fund redemptions, reduced sale of fund shares, or other adverse consequences to ING Funds.
NOTE 15 — LITIGATION
On December 12, 2003, ING IM (formerly, Aeltus Investment Management, Inc.,) received a copy of a complaint (the “Complaint”) filed in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York styled Enron Corp. v. Mass Mutual Life Insurance Co., et al. Among other defendants named in the Complaint are defendants ING VP Balanced Portfolio, and ING VP Bond Portfolio (the “Subject Portfolios”). The Complaint alleges that Enron Corp. (“Enron”) transferred to the defendants, including the Subject Portfolios, over $1 billion in the aggregate for the purpose of prepaying certain commercial paper issued by Enron (the “Notes”) and held by the defendants prior to the filing by Enron for bankruptcy protection under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the Bankruptcy Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”). The Complaint seeks to hold the defendants, including the Subject Portfolios, liable for these transfers as preferential transfers or as fraudulent transfers under the Bankruptcy Code. Although the Complaint does not specify the amount
57
NOTE 15 — LITIGATION (continued)
of each transfer in dispute, it appears that the sale by ING VP Balanced Portfolio, Inc. of $23,181,757 of the Notes on or about October 29, 2001 and the sale by ING VP Bond Portfolio, Inc. of $24,963,125 of the Notes on or about October 29, 2001 are in dispute. The Complaint seeks to require the Subject Portfolios to repay to Enron the full amounts of these transfers, in which event the Subject Portfolios would be granted unsecured claims against the Enron bankruptcy estate in the amounts of the repayments.
The Subject Portfolios moved to dismiss all counts of the Complaint, contending, among other things, that section 546(e) of the Bankruptcy Code provides a complete defense. The Bankruptcy Court denied the motion on July 1, 2005. Accordingly, the Subject Portfolios filed an answer to the Complaint on July 29, 2005. In addition, the Subject Portfolios have moved for leave to pursue an immediate appeal of the Bankruptcy Court’s decision to the district court. The district court has not yet ruled, and there can be no assurance that leave will be granted to pursue the appeal now. The Bankruptcy Court has set a discovery calendar indicating that discovery is to proceed through 2006. The Subject Portfolios and their counsel have reviewed the Subject Portfolios’ records concerning the factual background of the allegations in the Complaint, and have considered remaining potential defenses to the allegations in the Complaint. Because only limited discovery has taken place, the Subject Portfolios are unable to predict whether Enron will prevail, in whole or in part, in its claims against the Subject Portfolios, and therefore have not recorded a liability in the financial statements for any potential loss. Defendants continue to contend there is an affirmative defense for the claims presented.

The Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), provides, in substance, that each investment advisory agreement and sub-advisory agreement for a Fund will terminate automatically after the initial term of the agreement (which term may not exceed two years), unless continuation of the agreement is approved annually by the Board of Trustees (the “Board”) of the Fund, including a majority of the Trustees who have no direct or indirect interest in the agreement and who are not “interested persons” of the Fund (the “Independent Trustees”). Consistent with this requirement of the 1940 Act, the Board has established a process for considering on an annual basis approval of the continuation of the Investment Management Agreement for each Fund (the “Advisory Agreement”) with ING Investments, LLC (the “Adviser”) and the sub-advisory agreement for each Fund (collectively, the “Sub-Advisory Agreements”) with each sub-adviser of the Funds (the “Sub-Advisers”). Set forth below is a description of the process followed by the Board in considering approval of the continuation of each Advisory and Sub-Advisory Agreement (collectively, the “Agreements”), together with an explanation of many of the factors considered and related conclusions reached by the Board in voting to approve the continuation of each Agreement for an additional one-year period commencing January 1, 2006.
Overview of the Review Process
At a meeting of the Board held on December 14, 2005, the Board, including all of the Independent Trustees, voted to approve continuation of each of the existing Advisory and Sub-Advisory Agreements for the Funds. Prior to voting such approvals, the Board received the affirmative recommendation of the Contracts Committee of the Board, which is a Committee of the Board comprised of all of the Independent Trustees and exclusively of the Independent Trustees. The Contracts Committee recommended approval of the Advisory and Sub-Advisory Agreements after completing an extensive review of information requested by the Committee from the Adviser and each Sub-Adviser, including the following: (1) comparative performance data for each Fund for various time periods; (2) comparative data regarding management fees, including data regarding the fees charged by the Adviser and Sub-Advisers for managing other mutual funds and institutional accounts using investment strategies and techniques similar to those used in managing the Funds; (3) comparative data regarding the total expenses of each Fund; (4) copies of each form of Advisory Agreement and Sub-Advisory Agreement; (5) copies of the codes of ethics of the Adviser and each Sub-Adviser, together with information relating to the manner in which each code is administered; (6) financial statements of the Adviser and each Sub-Adviser; (7) profitability analyses for the Adviser and each Sub-Adviser with respect to each Fund, and all Funds as a group; (8) descriptions of the qualifications of the investment personnel responsible for managing each Fund, their compensation and their responsibilities with respect to managing other accounts or mutual funds; (9) descriptions of the services provided to the Funds, including the investment strategies and techniques used by each Sub-Adviser in managing the Funds; (10) data relating to portfolio turnover and brokerage practices, including practices with respect to the acquisition of research through “soft dollar” benefits received in connection with the Funds’ brokerage; (11) data comparing the performance of certain Funds against “static portfolios” of the Funds over various time periods; (12) descriptions of the business continuity and disaster recovery plans of the Adviser and each Sub-Adviser; (13) descriptions of various compliance programs of the Adviser and Sub-Advisers, including the Adviser’s programs for monitoring and enforcing compliance with the Funds’ policies with respect to market-timing, late trading and selective portfolio disclosure; and (14) other information relevant to an evaluation of the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the Adviser and each Sub-Adviser in response to a series of detailed questions presented by independent legal counsel on behalf of the Independent Trustees.
The Contracts Committee began the formal review process in July 2005 when it met separately with independent legal counsel to review the information to be requested from management and the methodology to be used in determining the selected peer groups for comparing performance and expenses. The Contracts Committee then held meetings on November 1 and 2, 2005 and December 13, 2005, during which the Independent Trustees, meeting separately with independent legal counsel, reviewed and evaluated the information described above. As part of the review process, the Contracts Committee also met with representatives from the Adviser and the Sub-Advisers to discuss the information provided to the Committee. The Contracts Committee also considered information that had been provided by the Adviser and Sub-Advisers throughout the year at other meetings of the Contracts Committee, the Audit Committee, the Compliance Committee and the Board.

ADVISORY CONTRACT APPROVAL DISCUSSION (UNAUDITED) (CONTINUED)
The Independent Trustees were assisted by Goodwin Procter LLP, their independent legal counsel, throughout the contract review process. The Independent Trustees relied upon the advice of such counsel and their own business judgment in determining the material factors to be considered in evaluating each Advisory and Sub-Advisory Agreement and the weight to be given to each such factor. The conclusions reached by the Independent Trustees were based on a comprehensive evaluation of all of the information provided and was not the result of any one factor. Moreover, each Independent Trustee may have afforded different weight to the various factors in reaching his or her conclusions with respect to each Advisory and Sub-Advisory Agreement.
Nature, Extent and Quality of Services
In considering whether to approve the Advisory and Sub-Advisory Agreements for the Funds for the year commencing January 1, 2006, the Board evaluated the nature, extent and quality of services provided to the Funds by the Adviser and Sub-Advisers. The Board considered the investment management and related services provided by the Adviser and Sub-Advisers, including the quantity and quality of the resources available to provide such services. Among other things, the Board considered the qualifications of the individuals responsible for performing various investment related services. With respect to Funds sub-advised by an affiliate of the Adviser, the Board also received information regarding the compensation paid by the Sub-Adviser to attract and retain individuals to perform these services on both an absolute basis and relative to amounts paid by others in the investment management industry.
The Board also considered the quality of the compliance programs of the Adviser and each Sub-Adviser, including the manner in which the Adviser and each Sub-Adviser monitor for compliance with the investment policies and restrictions of a Fund, the Codes of Ethics of the Adviser and Sub-Advisers with respect to personal trading by employees with access to portfolio information, and other compliance related matters. The Board also considered the actions taken by the Adviser and Sub-Advisers to establish and maintain effective disaster recovery and business continuity plans.
The Board considered the actions taken by the Adviser and its affiliated companies to administer the Funds’ policies and procedures for voting proxies, valuing the Funds’ assets, selective disclosure of portfolio holdings and preventing late-trading and frequent trading of Fund shares. With respect to these and related compliance matters, the Board also considered the responsiveness of the Adviser and its affiliated companies over the course of the past several years to the inquiries of various regulatory authorities, including the Securities and Exchange Commission and the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc.
The Board also took into account the efforts of the Adviser and its affiliated companies to reduce the expenses of the Funds, including fees and expenses for transfer agency, custody and audit services. With respect to those Funds that are sub-advised by an affiliate of the Adviser, the Board specifically noted that the Adviser and its affiliated companies have significantly reduced the Funds’ brokerage costs and portfolio turnover rates, as well as the quantity of research acquired through the use of soft dollars from the Funds’ brokerage. The Board also noted the efforts of the Adviser to optimize the number of Funds in the ING complex of mutual funds and to standardize the asset management characteristics and policies across the ING mutual fund platform. Consideration was also given to the benefits that shareholders of the Funds realize because the Funds are part of a larger ING family of mutual funds, including, in most cases, the ability of shareholders to exchange or transfer investments within the same class of shares among a wide variety of mutual funds without incurring additional sales charges.
The Board concluded that the nature, extent and quality of advisory and related services provided by the Adviser and each of the Sub-Advisers, taken as a whole, are consistent with the terms of the respective Advisory and Sub-Advisory Agreements and justify the fees paid by the Funds for such services.
Fund Performance
The Board reviewed each Fund’s investment performance over various time periods on an absolute basis and relative to the performance of (i) one or more appropriate benchmark indexes (such as the S&P 500 Composite Stock Price Index), (ii) a group of similarly managed mutual funds identified by Lipper, Inc. and/or Morningstar, Inc., and (iii) similarly managed mutual funds within a specified peer group based upon a methodology approved by the Contracts Committee (each, a “Selected Peer Group”). The Board reviewed comparative performance data for the one-, three-, five-, and ten-year periods, where applicable, ending June 30, 2005 and September 30, 2005.
105
ADVISORY CONTRACT APPROVAL DISCUSSION (UNAUDITED) (CONTINUED)
Summaries of selected portions of the performance information reviewed by the Board, together with the Board’s conclusions regarding the performance of each Fund, is set forth below under “Fund-by-Fund Analysis.”
Management Fees, Sub-Advisory Fees and Expenses
Consideration was given to the contractual investment advisory fee rates, inclusive of administrative fee rates, payable by the Funds to the Adviser and its affiliated companies (referred to collectively as “management fees”) and the contractual sub-advisory fee rates payable by the Adviser to each Sub-Adviser for sub-advisory services. As part of its review, the Board considered each Fund’s management fee and total expense ratio, as compared to its Selected Peer Group, both before and after giving effect to any undertaking by the Adviser to waive fees and/or limit the total expenses of a Fund. In addition, the Trustees received information regarding the fees charged by each Sub-Adviser to similarly-managed institutional accounts and other mutual funds, if any, and the comparability (or lack thereof) of the services provided by the Sub-Adviser in managing such accounts and other mutual funds to the services provided in managing the Funds. With respect to the Funds sub-advised by an affiliate of the Adviser, the Board evaluated the reasonableness of the fees payable under the Advisory and Sub-Advisory Agreements as a whole. With respect to the Funds sub-advised by Sub-Advisers that are not affiliated with the Adviser, the Board considered the reasonableness of the fees payable to the Sub-Advisers by the Adviser in light of the ability of the Adviser to negotiate such fees on an arms-length basis. Summaries of selected portions of the fee and expense information reviewed are set forth below under “Fund-by-Fund Analysis.” After reviewing the foregoing information, and in light of the nature extent and quality of the services provided by the Adviser and each Sub-Adviser, the Board concluded with respect to each Fund that the management fee charged to the Fund for advisory, sub-advisory and related services is fair and reasonable and that the total expense ratio of the Fund is reasonable.
Profitability
The Board considered information relating to revenues, expenses, and profits realized by the Adviser and each Sub-Adviser attributable to performing advisory, sub-advisory and administrative services for the Funds. With respect to Funds sub-advised by an unaffiliated Sub-Adviser, the Board did not consider the profitability of the Sub-Adviser to be a material factor because the Board believes that the Adviser negotiates sub-advisory fees with the unaffiliated Sub-Adviser on an arms-length basis. The Board reviewed profitability data for the Adviser and its affiliated companies, including the distributor of the Funds, relating to (i) each Fund separately, (ii) all Funds as a group, (iii) all “retail” Funds as a group, and (iv) all variable insurance product Funds as a group, in each case for the one-year periods ended December 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003, the nine-month period ended September 30, 2005 and the six-month period ended June 30, 2005. With respect to the Adviser and its affiliated companies, such information was prepared in accordance with a methodology approved by the Contracts Committee. The Board considered the profitability of the Adviser and its affiliated companies attributable to managing and operating each Fund both with and without the profitability of the distributor of the Funds and both before and after giving effect to any expenses incurred by the Adviser or any affiliated company in making revenue sharing or other payments to third parties, including affiliated insurance companies, for distribution and administrative services. With respect to Funds sub-advised by an affiliate of the Adviser, the Board considered the profitability of the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser attributable to managing and operating each Fund as a whole. The Board also considered other direct or indirect benefits that the Adviser and Sub-Advisers, and any affiliated companies thereof, derive from their relationships with the Funds, including the receipt by ING U.S. Financial Services, an affiliate of the Adviser, of fees relating to the offering of bundled financial products, such as annuity contracts, and the receipt by Sub-Advisers of “soft dollar” benefits from the Funds’ brokerage. The Board concluded that, in light of the nature, extent and quality of the services provided, the profits realized by the Adviser and its affiliated companies, taken as a whole, with respect to providing advisory, sub-advisory and administrative services for each Fund are reasonable.
Economies of Scale
In considering the reasonableness of the management fee of each Fund, the Board considered the extent to which economies of scale can be expected to be realized by a Fund’s Adviser and its affiliated companies, on the one hand, and by the Fund, on the other hand, as the assets of the Fund increase. The Board noted that the advisory fee for certain Funds includes breakpoints such that, as the assets of the Fund increase, the Fund’s management
106
ADVISORY CONTRACT APPROVAL DISCUSSION (UNAUDITED) (CONTINUED)
fee will decrease as a percentage of the Fund’s total assets. The Board recognized the inherent difficulties in measuring precisely the impact of any economies of scale being realized by the Adviser and its affiliated companies with respect to their management of any one or more Funds. In an effort to determine the extent to which economies of scale, if any, will be realized by the Adviser and its affiliated companies as the assets of the Funds grow, the Board considered the profitability data described above relating to the Adviser and its affiliated companies in light of changes in the assets of the Funds over various time periods. The Board noted that the total assets under management of many Funds have decreased during the past several years and concluded that the economies of scale realized by the Adviser and its affiliated companies from managing the Funds have not increased with respect to such Funds. The Board also reviewed information regarding the expense ratio of each Fund in light of changes in the assets of the Funds over various time periods, noting that, as the assets of a Fund increase, the fixed expenses of the Fund, as a percentage of the total assets of the Fund, can be expected to decrease. The Board considered such expense information in light of projections provided by the Adviser with respect to the future growth of assets of the Funds. Based upon the foregoing, the Board concluded that the economies of scale being realized by the Adviser and its affiliated companies do not mandate the implementation of breakpoints or additional breakpoints, as the case may be, with respect to any Fund at this time.
Fund-by-Fund Analysis
In deciding to approve the continuation of each Advisory and Sub-Advisory Agreement for an additional one-year period beginning January 1, 2006, the Board took into account the specific data and factors identified below relating to the performance, fees and expenses of each Fund and actions being taken by the Adviser or Sub-Adviser, as the case may be, with respect to these matters. Except as otherwise indicated, the performance data described below for each Fund is for periods ended September 30, 2005 and the management fees and expense data described below are as of June 30, 2005.
ING VP Balanced Portfolio
In evaluating the investment performance of ING VP Balanced Portfolio, the Board noted that the Portfolio outperformed its Morningstar category median for the year-to-date, one-, three- and ten-year periods, but underperformed for the most recent calendar quarter and five-year periods. The Board received performance information relating to a benchmark index of fixed income securities (the “FISB”) and equity securities (the “ESB”) from which the Board could calculate a composite benchmark index (the “Composite Benchmark”) comprised of 60% ESB and 40% FISB. The Fund outperformed the Composite Benchmark for all periods presented. The Board considered the fact that the Portfolio is ranked in its Morningstar category in the second quintile for the year-to-date,
one-and ten-year periods and in the third quintile for the most recent calendar quarter, three- and five-year periods. The Board noted that the portfolio manager for the domestic equity component of the Portfolio was replaced in April 2004 and that the individuals with primary responsibility for asset allocation decisions were replaced in April 2005. The Board concluded that the performance of the Portfolio is satisfactory and that appropriate actions are being taken to maintain and improve such performance.
In assessing the reasonableness of the management fee and expense ratio of ING VP Balanced Portfolio, the Board noted that the management fee for the Portfolio is equal to the median and one basis point above the average management fees of the funds in its Selected Peer Group and that the expense ratio for the Portfolio is below the median and average expense ratios of the funds in its Selected Peer Group.
ING VP Growth and Income Portfolio
In evaluating the investment performance of ING VP Growth and Income Portfolio, the Board noted that: (1) the Portfolio outperformed its Morningstar category median and its benchmark for the most recent calendar quarter, year-to-date and the one-year periods, but underperformed for the three-, five- and ten-year periods; and (2) the Portfolio is ranked in its Morningstar category in the second quintile for the most recent calendar quarter, year-to-date and one-year periods and in the fifth (lowest) quintile for the three-, five- and ten-year periods. The Board noted that, in an effort to address concerns about the Portfolio’s performance, in April 2004 the Sub-Adviser put in place a new team of portfolio managers and research analysts with primary responsibility for managing the Portfolio and that the Sub-Adviser has hired additional sector analysts to improve stock screenings and analysis since that time. The Board considered the fact that the performance of the Portfolio has improved
107

subsequent to such actions. The Board concluded that appropriate actions are being taken to improve performance and that additional time is needed to evaluate the effectiveness of these actions.
In assessing the reasonableness of the management fee and expense ratio for ING VP Growth and Income Portfolio, the Board noted that the management fee for the Portfolio is below the median and average management fees of the funds in its Selected Peer Group and that the expense ratio for the Portfolio is below the median and average expense ratios of the funds in its Selected Peer Group.

The Board further noted that, in an effort to address concerns regarding the Portfolio’s performance, the Sub-Adviser has hired a staff of senior sector analysts to improve stock screenings and analysis and that the performance of the Portfolio has improved. The Board concluded that appropriate actions are being taken to improve performance and that additional time is needed to evaluate the effectiveness of these actions.
In assessing the reasonableness of the management fee and expense ratio for ING VP Growth Portfolio, the Board noted that the management fee for the Portfolio is below the median and average management fees of the funds in its Selected Peer Group and that the expense ratio for the Portfolio is below the median and average expense ratios of the funds in its Selected Peer Group.

The Board further noted that, in an effort to address concerns regarding the Portfolio’s performance, in July 2005 the Sub-Adviser changed the portfolio manager of the Portfolio and that the performance of the Portfolio has improved. The Board concluded that appropriate actions are being taken to improve performance and that additional time is needed to evaluate the effectiveness of these actions.
In assessing the reasonableness of the management fee and expense ratio for ING VP Small Company Portfolio, the Board noted that the management fee for the Portfolio is equal to the median and below the average management fees of the funds in its Selected Peer Group, and that the expense ratio for the Portfolio is below the median and average expense ratios of the funds in its Selected Peer Group.

| Dear Shareholder, |
|
As you may recall, in my last letter I described the enthusiasm that we were experiencing here at ING Funds as we worked to bring more of the world’s investment opportunities to you, the investor. |
|
That enthusiasm, I am happy to report, is continuing to thrive. With the New Year, we have launched a series of new international mutual funds, each created to bring more of the world’s opportunities to you. |
|
Meanwhile, we have also heard you loud and clear. Our research tells us that many investors report that they find investing an intimidating and overly-complex endeavor. That is why ING is committed to helping investors across the country cut through the confusion and clutter. “Your future. Made easier.SM” is more than words; they represent our promise to you. |
JAMES M. HENNESSY | |
Those two objectives — bringing you more of the world’s opportunities and doing it in a way that is easier for you — are behind the development of the new portfolios. |
| |
| According to a recent finding, 58 percent of the world market capitalization now lies outside of the U.S.1 |
In other words, the majority of investment opportunities are now beyond our borders and we think that the ING VP Index Plus International Portfolio — a broad-based international portfolio — is an easy, single-step method to gain exposure to many of those opportunities. |
|
Meanwhile, the ING VP Global Real Estate Portfolio was developed as an easy way to bring global — international and domestic — real estate opportunities to the variable portfolio investor. Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs) are becoming more and more popular around the world, and this new portfolio seeks to capitalize on that popularity. But again, we’ve made it easy. With just one investment, investors bring the diversification of global real estate to their investment strategy. |
|
One of our goals at ING Funds is to find tomorrow’s opportunities today, and we believe these two portfolios are just the latest examples of that plan in action. |
|
On behalf of everyone at ING Funds, I thank you for your continued support and loyalty. We look forward to serving you in the future. |
Sincerely,
James M. Hennessy President ING Funds |
January 28, 2006 | |
The views expressed in the President’s Letter reflect those of the President as of the date of the letter. Any such views are subject to change at any time based upon market or other conditions and ING Funds disclaims any responsibility to update such views. These views may not be relied on as investment advice and because investment decisions for an ING Fund are based on numerous factors, may not be relied on as an indication of investment intent on behalf of any ING Fund. Reference to specific company securities should not be construed as recommendations or investment advice.
International investing does pose special risks including currency fluctuation, economic and political risks not found in investments that are solely domestic. Investments in issuers that are principally engaged in real estate, including REITs, may subject the Fund to risks similar to those associated with the direct ownership of real estate, including terrorist attacks, war or other acts that destroy real property (in addition to market risks). These companies are sensitive to factors such as changes in real estate values and property taxes, interest rates, cash flow of underlying real estate assets, supply and demand, and the management skill and creditworthiness of the issuer. REITs may also be affected by tax and regulatory requirements.
1 MSCI December, 2005

MARKET PERSPECTIVE: | YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2005 |
In our semi-annual report, we referred to mixed markets in which the U.S. investor lost on both domestic and international stocks, with gains in the latter trumped by the rebounding U.S. dollar. In the second half, global equities registered solid gains, although foreign markets ended the 2005 year more convincingly. The Morgan Stanley Capital International (“MSCI”) World® Index(1) calculated in dollars, including net reinvested dividends rose 10.3% for the six months ended December 31, 2005, and 9.5% for the full year. As for currencies, the dollar extended its first half run for the six months ended December 31, 2005, rising 2.1% against the euro (12.6% for the full year), 6.2% against the yen (14.7% for the full year), and 3.8% against the pound (10.2% for the full year). Commentators explained the U.S. dollar’s unexpected strength by pointing to relatively high U.S. interest rates, the re-cycling of oil exporters’ burgeoning wealth into dollar securities, the tax-related “repatriation” into dollars of U.S. corporations’ foreign currency balances, and, regarding the yen’s particular weakness, non-Japanese investors pouring money into the stock market but hedging their currency risk. Each dynamic was losing steam by 2005 year-end.
For more than a year, the main issue for US fixed income investors had been the unexpected flattening of the yield curve, i.e. the shrinking difference between short-term and long-term interest rates. From June 2004 through June 2005 the Federal Open Market Committee (“FOMC”) had raised the Federal Funds Rate by 25 basis points nine times, pulling other short-term rates up. However, the yield on the ten-year U.S. Treasury Note had actually fallen by 0.71% over the same thirteen months. This was put down to an apparently growing perception in the market that inflation was a problem solved, due to a vigilant Federal Reserve, cheap goods and labor abroad, consistent productivity growth at home and foreign investors’ hunger for U.S. investments. Occasionally in the second half, for example when Hurricane Katrina and Rita affected oil prices, having peaked near $70 per barrel at the end of August 2005, there looked to be filtering through to general prices, and the trend seemed about to break. Nevertheless, in the end the forces of curve flattening prevailed. By December 31, 2005, the FOMC had raised rates four more times, oil prices and the inflation scare had subsided and foreigners were still buying record amounts of U.S. securities. For the six months ended December 31, 2005, the yield on the ten-year Treasury rose by 45 basis points to 4.39% (17 basis points for the full year), and on 13-week U.S. Treasury Bills by 93 basis points (180 basis points for the full year) to 3.98%. The returns on the broad Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index(2) and the Lehman Brothers High Yield Bond Index(3) was -0.1% and 1.6% for the six months ended December 31, 2005, and 2.4% and 2.7% for the full year, respectively.
The U.S. equities market in the form of the Standard & Poor’s 500 Composite Stock Price (“S&P 500”) Index(4), added 5.8% including dividends in the latter half of 2005 and 4.9% for the full year, thanks to gains of 3.5% in July and November of 2005. Other months were flat to down and by 2005 year-end, the market, trading at a fairly undemanding price-to-earnings level of about 16 times earnings for the current fiscal year, was definitely struggling. Stock investors were initially encouraged by bullish economic reports and even more by second quarter company earnings figures, which were on average up more than 10% year over year. The optimistic mood lasted into early August of 2005, when the S&P 500 reached a four-year high, before drifting back as resurgent oil prices made records almost daily. In September and October of 2005 with Hurricanes Katrina and Rita seldom out of the news, two attempted rallies fizzled. High prices at the gas pump were already here. An expensive winter for heating fuel was certain. Sharply rising factory prices started to be found in local Federal Reserve and purchasing managers’ reports and, with consumer confidence slumping, the word “stagflation” was heard more than once. In spite of this, as November approached, an evidently swift recovery from the Hurricanes Katrina and Rita cheered investors and stock prices powered ahead through mid-December 2005, as oil prices fell back below $60 per barrel, inflation moderated, corporate profits remained buoyant and gross domestic product (“GDP”) growth, at 4.1% per annum, was the envy of the developed world. Yet the market gave back nearly 1.6% between Christmas and New Year, when new reports suggested that the end of the bubbling housing market might be at hand. Rising house prices had encouraged the consumer spending that was largely behind robust GDP growth; spending that is, by people who on average were saving little, if anything.
In international markets Japan was the shining star of the second half, soaring 33.3%, based on the MSCI Japan® Index(5) in dollars plus net dividends for the six months ended December 31, 2005, and 25.5% for

the full year, as the market repeatedly broke five-year records amid new optimism. Investors, albeit mainly foreign ones, came to the belief that Japan is re-emerging as a balanced economy and less dependent on exports. Japanese corporations and banks have repaired their balance sheets at last. Rising wages are supporting domestic demand, in addition to an expected end to deflation, seems at hand. European ex UK markets leaped 11.8%, according to the MSCI Europe ex UK® Index(6) in dollars including net dividends for the six months ended December 31, 2005 (10.5% for the full year) and 14.7% in local currencies (27.7% for the full year) to the best levels in over four years, despite the first interest rate increase, to 2.5%, in over five years. Mounting evidence of a recovery in local demand, resilient profits and an upsurge of merger and acquisition activity boosted markets that are not particularly expensive. UK equities advanced 6.4% in the six months ended December 31, 2005 (7.4% for the full year) based on the MSCI UK® Index(7) in dollars including net dividends, concealing a more impressive 11.1% increase in pounds (20.1% for the full year), to the highest in four years. The period was dominated by the effect of five interest rate increases to restrain over-stretched consumers and soaring real estate prices. Yet, in the face of mostly miserable economic reports, and despite terrorist attacks in London over two days in July of 2005, investors, encouraged by merger and acquisition activity, supported an inexpensive market yielding over 3%.

The ING VP Index Plus LargeCap Portfolio (the “Portfolio”) seeks to outperform the total return performance of the Standard & Poor’s 500 Composite Stock Price Index (“S&P 500 Index”), while maintaining a market level of risk. The Portfolio is managed by Omar Aguilar*, Portfolio Manager, and Douglas Coté, Portfolio Manager, ING Investment Management Co. — the Sub-Adviser.
Performance: For the year ended December 31, 2005, the Portfolio’s Class I shares provided a total return of 5.38% compared to the S&P 500 Index, which returned 4.91% for the same period.
Portfolio Specifics: The Portfolio outperformed its benchmark, the S&P 500 Index, due to strong security selection, especially in the health care and consumer staples sectors. Stock selection in the telecommunications and information technology sectors somewhat detracted from performance. Our overweight in Apple Computer was among one of the largest positive contributors to performance. Our overweight in Dell was one of the largest detractors from performance.
Apple Computer is a dominating player in the digital music world with its iPod and iTunes store front. This year the company continued its strong sales momentum and used its brand recognition and product development to grow sales. It used brand recognition to gain market share in its computer division for the iMac. We continue to overweight the stock as the company has reported quality earnings supported by better estimates. We believe given the strength of the earnings that the company can continue to grow.
Dell disappointed investors with consecutive revenue misses after it used an aggressive pricing strategy to gain market share. In addition, during the third quarter, the company attempted to move into the higher end PC market, which actually resulted in lower sales when faced with declining demand for the product and tough competition. We continue to own this stock due to business fundamentals and find today’s price to cash flow to be attractive.
Individual security selection was helped by the effectiveness of factors historically successful at identifying outperforming stocks, especially free cash flow to price, price momentum and relative price to earnings. Change in accruals, analyst estimate revision and change in capital expenditures to depreciation were not helpful in our stock selection process.
Current Strategy and Outlook: Momentum in the U.S. economy remains strong going into 2006. Real gross domestic product (“GDP”) growth is likely to decelerate during the year. However, increases in net exports and capital spending may not fully offset a slowdown in residential investment. On the inflation front, falling gasoline prices have led to lower headline inflation rates, and are likely to take some pressure off of core consumer price index (“CPI”) inflation. The risk that core inflation rises as the expansion puts more pressure on resources, however, still exists. Given this scenario, we believe the Federal Open Market Committee (“FOMC”) will continue raising rates in early 2006. Whether it stops tightening will depend mainly on its assessment of inflation risk. A sustained expansion and benign wage and price inflation — the most likely scenario for 2006 in our view — should provide a good climate for equity market performance.
The Portfolio is overweight in the energy, and information technology sectors and underweight in the consumer discretionary, utilities and health care sectors. However, our overall sector exposures are a function of our stock selection process and by design quite close to the S&P 500 Index so that nearly all of our relative performance is driven by individual stocks.

The ING VP Index Plus MidCap Portfolio (the “Portfolio”) seeks to outperform the total return performance of the Standard & Poor’s MidCap 400 Index (“S&P MidCap 400 Index”), while maintaining a market level of risk. The Portfolio is managed by Omar Aguilar*, Portfolio Manager, and Douglas Coté, Portfolio Manager, ING Investment Management Co. — the Sub-Adviser.
Performance: For the year ended December 31, 2005, the Portfolio’s Class I shares provided a total return of 11.14% compared to the S&P MidCap 400 Index, which returned 12.56% for the same period.
Portfolio Specifics: The Portfolio underperformed its benchmark, the S&P MidCap 400 Index, due to adverse security selection. Stock selection in the information technology and financial sectors contributed positively, partially offsetting negative results from security selection in energy and industrials. Our overweight in Abercrombie & Fitch was among one of the largest positive contributors to performance, while our underweight in Arch Coal Inc. was one of the largest detractors from performance.
Shares of Abercrombie & Fitch, the clothing retailer, experienced some significant swings in 2005 but ended the year as one of the best performing stocks in the consumer discretionary sector. We found this stock attractive for several reasons, including its strong earnings quality and cashflow, and for part of the year, earnings estimate revision and price momentum. Over the summer, weaker than expected sales and concerns that consumers would curtail spending sent the stock lower; but an improving retail picture and a strong Christmas season for Abercrombie & Fitch led the stock upward in the fourth quarter. While we decreased our position in this stock during the year, we continue to own Abercrombie & Fitch based mainly on strong business momentum and earnings estimate revisions.
We were underweight Arch Coal Inc. for the year. The company ranked poorly throughout much of the year on poor valuation factors, such as price to book and cash flow to price. The company also ranked poorly in the overall quality of its earnings. Arch Coal is a story of a soaring commodity for energy use. The demand for coal is expected to double in the next twenty years as power producers switch from natural gas to coal-fired plants. President Bush has put his backing behind coal as a source to meet the increased electricity demands. Although the company forecasted lower second quarter earnings in the middle of the year due to weather related production issues, the stock soared on the coal story.
Individual security selection was helped by the effectiveness of factors historically successful at identifying outperforming stocks, especially analyst estimate revision, price momentum and relative price-to-earnings. Change in accruals, free cash flow to price and change in capital expenditures to depreciation were not helpful in our stock selection process.
Current Strategy and Outlook: Momentum in the U.S. economy remains strong going into 2006.

The ING VP Index Plus SmallCap Portfolio (the “Portfolio”) seeks to outperform the total return performance of the Standard & Poor’s SmallCap 600 Index (“S&P SmallCap 600 Index”), while maintaining a market level of risk. The Portfolio is managed by a team of equity investment specialists led by Omar Aguilar*, Portfolio Manager, and Douglas Coté, Portfolio Manager, ING Investment Management Co. — the Sub-Adviser.
Performance: For the year ended December 31, 2005, the Portfolio’s Class I shares provided a total return of 7.62% compared to the S&P SmallCap 600 Index, which returned 7.68% for the same period.
Portfolio Specifics: The Portfolio underperformed its benchmark, the S&P 600 Index, due to adverse security selection, especially in the financial and materials sectors. Positive performance in the health care and information technology sectors added to performance. Our overweight in Frontier Oil was among one of the largest positive contributors to performance while our overweight in Polaris was one of the largest detractors from performance.
With the big run-up in energy prices this year, Frontier Oil had the fourth best return of all stocks in the S&P 600 Index for 2005 and was the best performer in the small cap energy sector. Frontier Oil, which conducts crude oil refining in the Rocky Mountains, rose alongside other refiners, peaking in early October, not long after oil prices weakened. We were drawn to this stock by its strong business momentum and attractive relative valuation, e.g. its appealing relative price-to-earnings ratio, and we continue to like this security.
Polaris Industries is a leading manufacturer of ATVs, snowmobiles and motorcycles that saw its stock price decline through the first ten months of the year on concerns that consumers would delay purchasing big-ticket leisure items. This stock looked attractive to us from an earnings quality perspective, and although actual earnings continued to grow throughout the year, the share price was punished alongside many other consumer discretionary stocks (especially those in the leisure industry) as investors feared that higher energy prices and rising inflation would curb spending. We continue to hold a position in Polaris as earnings quality remains sound and earnings estimates as well as valuation have improved.
Individual security selection was helped by the effectiveness of factors historically successful at identifying outperforming stocks, especially free cash flow to price, price momentum, relative price-to-earnings, change in accruals and analyst estimate revision. Change in capital expenditures to depreciation was not helpful in our stock selection process.
Current Strategy and Outlook: Momentum in the U.S. economy remains strong going into 2006. Real gross domestic product (“GDP”) growth is likely to decelerate during the year, however, increases in net exports and capital spending may not fully offset a slowdown in residential investment. On the inflation front, falling gasoline prices have led to lower headline inflation rates, and are likely to take some pressure off of core consumer price index (“CPI”) inflation. The risk that core inflation rises as the expansion puts more pressure on resources, however, still exists. Given this scenario, we believe the Federal Open Market Committee (“FOMC”) will continue raising rates in early 2006. Whether it stops tightening will depend mainly on its assessment of inflation risk. A sustained expansion and benign wage and price inflation — the most likely scenario for 2006 in our view — should provide a good climate for equity market performance.
The Portfolio is overweight in the consumer discretionaries and energy and underweight in the information technology and healthcare sectors. However, our overall sector exposures are by design quite close to the S&P SmallCap 600 Index so that nearly all of our relative performance is driven by individual stock selection.

ING VP STRATEGIC ALLOCATION BALANCED PORTFOLIO | | PORTFOLIO MANAGERS’ REPORT |

The ING VP Strategic Allocation Balanced Portfolio (the “Portfolio”) seeks to provide total return (i.e., income and capital appreciation, both realized and unrealized). The Portfolio is managed by Mary Ann Fernandez, Portfolio Manager, and Shiv Mehta, Portfolio Manager ING Investment Management Co. — the Sub-Adviser.
Performance: For the year ended December 31, 2005, the Portfolio’s Class I shares provided a total return of 4.70% compared to 6.12% for the Russell 3000® Index and 5.13% for the Strategic Allocation Balanced Composite Index.
Portfolio Specifics: The Portfolio’s asset allocation had a positive impact on performance for 2005. Our overweight in international equities and underweight in fixed income securities, positions that we maintained in varying degrees throughout the year, each helped results. Our exposure to domestic equities fluctuated between overweight and neutral over the course of the period, however the overall equity position had a negative impact on results. The equity component performed roughly in line with its sub-benchmark, the Russell 3000® Index, due to effective security selection and positive sector allocation. Stock selection was particularly strong among health care stocks, though it was weaker in technology and telecom. Our overweight to the energy sector helped results, and was by far the best performing market segment for the year. The international equity component outperformed the Morgan Stanley Capital International Europe, Australasia, and Far East (“MSCI EAFE®”) Index for the period, due to robust security selection and positive regional allocation, especially an underweight in the U.K. Security selection was strongest in financials, materials and telecom, though weaker in technology.
The fixed-income component of the Portfolio underperformed the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond (“LBAB”) Index for the year ended 2005. Rising short-term rates, coupled with a tightening Federal Reserve, led us to maintain a shorter duration posture with an underweight to shorter maturities, which helped performance through most of the year. Security selection in the mortgage-backed securities sector produced positive performance, and our continued underweight to longer-dated corporates was beneficial for most of 2005. Results among corporates lagged, with most of the damage occurring in the longer-dated maturities. An overexposure to asset-backed securities and commercial mortgage-backed securities, at the expense of corporates, was beneficial as both sectors produced excess returns (excess return means the excess over the return from Treasury securities of comparable term). Positions in bank and insurance securities, particularly floating rate preferreds, and lack of exposure in the automotive sectors were sources of positive security selection.
Current Strategy and Outlook: As we move into 2006, momentum in the U.S. economy remains strong. Real gross domestic product (“GDP”) growth is likely to decelerate during the year, however, increases in net exports and capital spending may not fully offset a slowdown in residential investment. On the inflation front, falling gasoline prices have led to lower headline inflation rates, and are likely to take some pressure off of core consumer price index (“CPI”) inflation. The risk that core inflation rises as the expansion puts more pressure on resources, however, still exists. Given this scenario, we believe the Federal Open Market Committee (“FOMC”) will continue raising rates in early 2006. Whether it stops tightening will depend mainly on its assessment of inflation risk. A sustained expansion and benign wage and price inflation — the most likely scenario for 2006 in our view — should provide a good climate for equity market performance.
We remain modestly overweight in equities, favoring large-cap stocks. We expect bond yields will rise from current levels as the Federal Reserve continues to tighten the supply of credit, and so we are modestly underweight in bonds. Although valuations on international stocks are no longer relatively inexpensive, we believe overseas markets will continue to benefit from the expansion in global industrial production and strong price momentum, and therefore maintain our overweight position.

Based on a $10,000 initial investment, the graph and table above illustrate the total return of ING VP Strategic Allocation Balanced Portfolio against the Russell 3000® Index and the Strategic Allocation Balanced Composite Index. The Indices are unmanaged and have no cash in their portfolios, impose no sales charges and incur no operating expenses. An investor cannot invest directly in an index. The Portfolio’s performance is shown without the imposition of any expenses or charges which are, or may be, imposed under your annuity contract. Total returns would have been lower if such expenses or charges were included.
The performance graph and table do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder will pay on Portfolio distributions or the redemption of Portfolio shares.
The performance shown may include the effect of fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements by the Investment Manager and/or other service providers, which have the effect of increasing total return. Had all fees and expenses been considered, the total returns would have been lower.
The performance update illustrates performance for a variable investment option available through a variable annuity contract. The performance shown indicates past performance and is not a projection or prediction of future results. Actual investment returns and principal value will fluctuate so that shares and/or units, at redemption, may be worth more or less than their original cost.

SHAREHOLDER EXPENSE EXAMPLES (UNAUDITED) |
As a shareholder of a Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchase payments; redemption fees; and exchange fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution [and/or service] (12b-1) fees; and other Fund expenses. These Examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in a Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The Examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from July 1, 2005 to December 31, 2005.
Actual Expenses
The first section of the table shown, “Actual Fund Return,” provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this section, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first section under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The second section of the table shown, “Hypothetical 5% Return,” 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.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges (loads), redemption fees, or exchange fees. Therefore, the hypothetical lines of the table are useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM |
The Board of Directors and Shareholders
ING Variable Portfolios, Inc. and ING Strategic Allocation Portfolios, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the portfolios of investments, of ING VP Index Plus LargeCap Portfolio, ING VP Index Plus MidCap Portfolio and ING VP Index Plus SmallCap Portfolio, each a series of ING Variable Portfolios, Inc., and ING VP Strategic Allocation Balanced Portfolio, ING VP Strategic Allocation Growth Portfolio, and ING VP Strategic Allocation Income Portfolio, each a series of ING Strategic Allocation Portfolios, Inc., as of December 31, 2005, and the related statements of operations for the year then ended, statements of changes in net assets for each of the years in the two-year period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the years or periods in the five-year period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2005 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, or by other appropriate auditing procedures when replies from brokers were not received. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the aforementioned portfolios as of December 31, 2005, the results of their operations, the changes in their net assets, and the financial highlights for the periods specified in the first paragraph above, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

NOTE TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2005 |
NOTE 1 — ORGANIZATION
Organization. The ING Variable Portfolios, Inc. and the ING Strategic Allocation Portfolios, Inc. are each registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as an open-end management investment company.
The ING Variable Portfolios, Inc. is a company incorporated under the laws of Maryland on June 4, 1996. There are eight separate investment portfolios that comprise the ING Variable Portfolios, Inc. The three portfolios (each a “Portfolio”, collectively the “Portfolios”) that are in this report are: ING VP Index Plus LargeCap Portfolio (“VP Index Plus LargeCap”), ING VP Index Plus MidCap Portfolio (“VP Index Plus MidCap”) and ING VP Index Plus SmallCap Portfolio (“VP Index Plus SmallCap”).
The ING Strategic Allocation Portfolios, Inc. is a company incorporated under the laws of Maryland on October 14, 1994. There are three separate investment portfolios (each a “Portfolio”, collectively the “Portfolios”) that comprise the ING Strategic Allocation Portfolios: ING VP Strategic Allocation Balanced Portfolio (“VP Strategic Allocation Balanced”), ING VP Strategic Allocation Growth Portfolio (“VP Strategic Allocation Growth”) and ING VP Strategic Allocation Income Portfolio (“VP Strategic Allocation Income”).
Each Portfolio offers Class I and Class S shares. The two classes differ principally in the applicable shareholder service fees. Shareholders of each class also bear certain expenses that pertain to that particular class. All shareholders bear the common expenses of the Portfolio and earn income and realized gains/losses from the portfolio pro rata based on the average daily net assets of each class, without distinction between share classes. Differences in per share dividend rates generally result from differences in separate class expenses, including shareholder servicing fees.
Shares of the Portfolios may be offered to segregated asset accounts of insurance companies as investment options under variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies. Shares may also be offered to qualified pension and retirement plans outside the Variable Contract and to certain investment advisers and their affiliates. Class I shares may be made available to other investment companies, including series of the Trust under fund-of-funds arrangements.
Participating insurance companies and other designated organizations are authorized to receive purchase orders on the Portfolio’s behalf.
ING Investments, LLC (“ING Investments” or the “Investment Manager”), an Arizona limited liability company, serves as the Investment Manager to the Portfolios. ING Investments has engaged ING Investment Management Co. (“ING IM”), a Connecticut corporation, to serve as the Sub-Adviser to the Portfolios. ING Funds Distributor, LLC (the “Distributor”) is the principal underwriter of the Portfolios. ING Investments, ING IM and the Distributor are indirect, wholly-owned subsidiaries of ING Groep N.V. (“ING Groep”). ING Groep is one of the largest financial services organizations in the world, and offers an array of banking, insurance and asset management services to both individuals and institutional investors.
NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following significant accounting policies are consistently followed by the Portfolios in the preparation of their financial statements. Such policies are in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for investment companies.
A. Security Valuation. Investments in equity securities traded on a national securities exchange are valued at the last reported sale price. Securities reported by NASDAQ are valued at the NASDAQ official closing prices. Securities traded on an exchange or NASDAQ for which there has been no sale and securities traded in the over-the-counter-market are valued at the mean between the last reported bid and ask prices. All investments quoted in foreign currencies will be valued daily in U.S. dollars on the basis of the foreign currency exchange rates prevailing at that time. Debt securities are valued at prices obtained from independent services or from one or more dealers making markets in the securities and may be adjusted based on the Portfolios’ valuation procedures. U.S. Government obligations are valued by using market quotations or independent pricing services that use prices provided by market-makers or estimates of market values obtained from yield data relating to instruments or securities with similar characteristics.
Securities and assets for which market quotations are not readily available (which may include certain restricted securities which are subject to limitations as to their sale) are valued at their fair values as determined in good faith by or under the supervision of the Portfolio’s Board of Directors (“Board”), in accordance with methods that are specifically authorized by the Board.
33
NOTE TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2005 (CONTINUED) |
NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Securities traded on exchanges, including foreign exchanges, which close earlier than the time that a Portfolio calculates its net asset value (“NAV”) may also be valued at their fair values as determined in good faith by or under the supervision of a Portfolio’s Board, in accordance with methods that are specifically authorized by the Board. The value of a foreign security traded on an exchange outside the United States is generally based on its price on the principal foreign exchange where it trades as of the time the Portfolio determines its NAV or if the foreign exchange closes prior to the time the Portfolio determines its NAV, the most recent closing price of the foreign security on its principal exchange. Trading in certain non-U.S. securities may not take place on all days on which the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) is open. Further, trading takes place in various foreign markets on days on which the NYSE is not open. Consequently, the calculation of the Portfolio’s NAV may not take place contemporaneously with the determination of the prices of securities held by the Portfolio in foreign securities markets. Further, the value of the Portfolio’s assets may be significantly affected by foreign trading on days when a shareholder cannot purchase or redeem shares of the Portfolio. In calculating the Portfolio’s NAV, foreign securities denominated in foreign currency are converted to U.S. dollar equivalents. If an event occurs after the time at which the market for foreign securities held by the Portfolio closes but before the time that the Portfolio’s NAV is calculated, such event may cause the closing price on the foreign exchange to not represent a readily available reliable market value quotation for such securities at the time the Portfolio determines its NAV. In such a case, the Portfolio will use the fair value of such securities as determined under the Portfolio’s valuation procedures. Events after the close of trading on a foreign market that could require the Portfolio to fair value some or all of its foreign securities include, among others, securities trading in the U.S. and other markets, corporate announcements, natural and other disasters, and political and other events. Among other elements of analysis in the determination of a security’s fair value, the Board has authorized the use of one or more independent research services to assist with such determinations. An independent research service may use statistical analyses and quantitative models to help determine fair value as of the time a Portfolio calculates its NAV. There can be no assurance that such models accurately reflect the behavior of the applicable markets or the effect of the behavior of such markets on the fair value of securities, or that such markets will continue to behave in a fashion that is consistent with such models. Unlike the closing price of a security on an exchange, fair value determinations employ elements of judgment. Consequently, the fair value assigned to a security may not represent the actual value that a Portfolio could obtain if it were to sell the security at the time of the close of the NYSE. Pursuant to procedures adopted by the Board, a Portfolio is not obligated to use the fair valuations suggested by any research service, and valuation recommendations provided by such research services may be overridden if other events have occurred or if other fair valuations are determined in good faith to be more accurate. Unless an event is such that it causes a Portfolio to determine that the closing prices for one or more securities do not represent readily available reliable market value quotations at the time the Portfolio determines its NAV, events that occur between the time of the close of the foreign market on which they are traded and the close of regular trading on the NYSE will not be reflected in the Portfolio’s NAV. Investments in securities maturing in 60 days or less at the date of valuation are valued at amortized cost, which, when combined with accrued interest approximates market value.
B. Security Transactions and Revenue Recognition. Securities transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Realized gains and losses are reported on the basis of identified cost of securities sold. Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, or for certain foreign securities, when the information becomes available to the Portfolios. Premium amortization and discount accretion are determined by the effective yield method.
C. Foreign Currency Translation. The books and records of the Portfolios are maintained in U.S. dollars. Any foreign currency amounts are translated into U.S. dollars on the following basis:
(1) Market value of investment securities, other assets and liabilities — at the exchange rates prevailing at the end of the day.
(2) Purchases and sales of investment securities, income and expenses — at the rates of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions.
34
NOTE TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2005 (CONTINUED) |
NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Although the net assets and the market values are presented at the foreign exchange rates at the end of the day, the Portfolios do not isolate the portion of the results of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from the fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities held. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gains or losses from investments. For securities, which are subject to foreign withholding tax upon disposition, liabilities are recorded on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities for the estimated tax withholding based on the securities’ current market value. Upon disposition, realized gains or losses on such securities are recorded net of foreign withholding tax.
Reported net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from sales of foreign currencies, currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest, and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Portfolio’s books, and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses arise from changes in the value of assets and liabilities other than investments in securities at fiscal year end, resulting from changes in the exchange rate. Foreign security and currency transactions may involve certain considerations and risks not typically associated with investing in U.S. companies and U.S. Government securities. These risks include, but are not limited to, revaluation of currencies and future adverse political and economic developments which could cause securities and their markets to be less liquid and prices more volatile than those of comparable U.S. companies and U.S. Government securities.
D. Foreign Currency Transactions and Futures Contracts. Certain Portfolios may enter into foreign currency exchange transactions to convert to and from different foreign currencies and to and from the U.S. dollar in connection with the planned purchases or sales of securities. When entering into a currency forward contract, a Portfolio agrees to receive or deliver a fixed quantity of foreign currency for an agreed-upon price on an agreed upon date. The Portfolios either enter into these transactions on a spot basis at the spot rate prevailing in the foreign currency exchange market or use forward foreign currency contracts to purchase or sell foreign currencies. When the contract is fulfilled or closed, gains or losses are realized. Until then, the gain or loss is included in unrealized appreciation or depreciation. Risks may arise upon entering into forward contracts from the potential inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their forward contracts and from unanticipated movements in the value of foreign currencies relative to the U.S. dollar.
Each Portfolio may enter into futures contracts involving foreign currency, interest rates, securities and security indices. A futures contract obligates the seller of the contract to deliver and the purchaser of the contract to take delivery of the type of foreign currency, financial instrument or security called for in the contract at a specified future time for a specified price. Upon entering into such a contract, a Portfolio is required to deposit and maintain as collateral such initial margin as required by the exchange on which the contract is traded. Pursuant to the contract, a Portfolio agrees to receive from or pay to the broker an amount equal to the daily fluctuations in the value of the contract. Such receipts or payments are known as variation margins and are recorded as unrealized gains or losses by the Portfolio. When the contract is closed, the Portfolio records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed.
E. Distributions to Shareholders. The Portfolios record distributions to their shareholders on ex-dividend date. Dividends from net investment income and capital gains, if any, are declared and paid annually by the Portfolios. The Portfolios may make distributions on a more frequent basis to comply with the distribution requirements of the Internal Revenue Code. The characteristics of income and gains to be distributed are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for investment companies.
F. Federal Income Taxes. It is the policy of the Portfolios to comply with subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code and related excise tax provisions applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all of their net investment income and any net realized
35
NOTE TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2005 (CONTINUED) |
NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
capital gains to their shareholders. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required. No capital gain distributions shall be made until any capital loss carryforwards have been fully utilized or expired.
G. Use of Estimates. Management of the Portfolios has made certain estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of assets, liabilities, income, and expenses to prepare these financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for investment companies. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
H. Repurchase Agreements. Each Portfolio may invest in repurchase agreements only with government securities dealers recognized by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. Under such agreements, the seller of the security agrees to repurchase it at a mutually agreed upon time and price. The resale price is in excess of the purchase price and reflects an agreed upon interest rate for the period of time the agreement is outstanding. The period of the repurchase agreements is usually short, from overnight to one week, while the underlying securities generally have longer maturities. Each Portfolio will receive as collateral securities acceptable to it whose market value is equal to at least 100% of the carrying amount of the repurchase agreements, plus accrued interest, being invested by the Portfolio. The underlying collateral is valued daily on a mark to market basis to assure that the value, including accrued interest is at least equal to the repurchase price. There would be potential loss to the Portfolio in the event the Fund is delayed or prevented from exercising its right to dispose of the collateral, and it might incur disposition costs in liquidating the collateral.
I. Securities Lending. Each Portfolio has the option to temporarily loan up to 30% of its total assets to brokers, dealers or other financial institutions in exchange for a negotiated lender’s fee. The borrower is required to fully collateralize the loans with cash or U.S. Government securities. Generally, in the event of counterparty default, the Portfolio has the right to use collateral to offset losses incurred. There would be potential loss to the Portfolio in the event the Portfolio is delayed or prevented from exercising its right to dispose of the collateral. The Portfolio bears the risk of loss with respect to the investment of collateral. Engaging in securities lending could have a leveraging effect, which may intensify the credit, market and other risks associated with investing in a Portfolio.
J. Illiquid and Restricted Securities. VP Index Plus LargeCap, VP Index Plus MidCap and VP Index Plus SmallCap each may not invest more than 10% of its net assets in illiquid securities. VP Strategic Allocation Balanced, VP Strategic Allocation Growth and VP Strategic Allocation Income each may not invest more than 15% of its net assets in illiquid securities. Illiquid securities are not readily marketable. Disposing of illiquid investments may involve time-consuming negotiation and legal expenses, and it may be difficult or impossible for the Portfolios to sell them promptly at an acceptable price. Each Portfolio may also invest in restricted securities, which include those sold under Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933 (“1933 Act”) or securities offered pursuant to Section 4(2) of the 1933 Act, and/or are subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale and may not be publicly sold without registration under the 1933 Act. Certain restricted securities may be considered liquid pursuant to procedures adopted by the Board or may be deemed to be illiquid because they may not be readily marketable. Illiquid and restricted securities are valued using market quotations when readily available. In the absence of market quotations, the securities are valued based upon their fair value determined under procedures approved by the Board.
K. Delayed Delivery Transactions. Each Portfolio may purchase or sell securities on a when-issued or forward commitment basis. The price of the underlying securities and date when the securities will be delivered and paid for are fixed at the time the transaction is negotiated. The market value of such is identified in each Portfolio’s Portfolio of Investments. Losses may arise due to changes in the market value of the securities or from the inability of counterparties to meet the terms of the contract. In connection with such purchases, the Portfolios are required to segregate liquid assets sufficient to cover the purchase price.
L. Mortgage Dollar Roll Transactions. In connection with a Portfolio’s ability to purchase or sell securities on a when-issued basis, VP Strategic Allocation Balanced, VP Strategic Allocation Growth and VP Strategic Allocation Income Portfolios may engage in dollar roll transactions with respect to mortgage-backed securities issued
36
NOTE TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2005 (CONTINUED) |
NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
by Government National Mortgage Association, Federal National Mortgage Association and Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corp. In a dollar roll transaction, a Portfolio sells a mortgage-backed security to a financial institution, such as a bank or broker/dealer, and simultaneously agrees to repurchase a substantially similar (i.e., same type, coupon, and maturity) security from the institution on a delayed delivery basis at an agreed upon price. The mortgage-backed securities that are repurchased will bear the same interest rate as those sold, but generally will be collateralized by different pools of mortgages with different prepayment histories. The Portfolios account for dollar roll transactions as purchases and sales.
M. Swap Contracts. Each Portfolio may enter into interest rate swaps, currency swaps and other types of swap agreements, including swaps on securities and indices. A swap is an agreement between two parties pursuant to which each party agrees to make one or more payments to the other on regularly scheduled dates over a stated term, based on different interest rates, currency exchange rates, security prices, the prices or rates of other types of financial instruments or assets or the levels of specified indices. During the term of the swap, changes in the value of the swap are recognized as unrealized appreciation or depreciation.

NOTE 8 — LINE OF CREDIT
All of the Portfolios included in this report, in addition to certain other Portfolios managed by the Investment Manager, have entered into an unsecured committed revolving line of credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with Citibank, N.A. for an aggregate amount of $100,000,000. The proceeds may be used only to: (1) temporarily finance the purchase and sale of securities; (2) finance the redemption of shares of an investor in the Portfolios; and (3) enable the Portfolios to meet other emergency expenses as defined in the Credit Agreement. The Portfolios to which the line of credit is available pay a commitment fee equal to 0.09% per annum on the daily unused portion of the committed line amount. Each of the Portfolios will pay its pro rata share of both the agent and commitment fee. Generally, borrowings under the Credit Agreement accrue interest at the Federal Funds Rate plus a specified margin. Repayments generally must be made within 30 days after the date of a revolving credit advance. VP Strategic Allocation Balanced Portfolio utilized the line of credit for two days during the year ended December 31, 2005, with an approximate average daily balance of 1,235,000 for those days and as approximate weighted average interest rate of 3.99%. Interest expense is included in miscellaneous expense on the Statement of Operations.

NOTE 10 — SECURITIES LENDING
Under an agreement with The Bank of New York (“BNY”), the Portfolios can lend their securities to approved brokers, dealers and other financial institutions. Loans are collateralized by cash and U.S. Government securities. The collateral must be in an amount equal to at least 105% of the market value of non-U.S. securities loaned and 102% of the market value of U.S. securities loaned. The cash collateral received is invested in approved investments as defined in the Securities Lending Agreement with BNY (the “Agreement”). The securities purchased with cash collateral received are reflected in the Portfolio of Investments. Generally, in the event of counterparty default, the Portfolios have the right to use the collateral to offset losses incurred. The Agreement contains certain guarantees by BNY in the event of counterparty default and/or a borrower’s failure to return a loaned security, however there would be a potential loss to the Portfolios in the event the Portfolios are delayed or prevented from exercising their right to dispose of the collateral. The Portfolios bear the risk of loss with respect to the investment of collateral. Engaging in securities lending could have a leveraging effect, which may intensify the credit, market and other risks associated with investing in a Portfolio.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2005 (CONTINUED)
NOTE 13 — INFORMATION REGARDING TRADING OF ING’S U.S. MUTUAL FUNDS
In 2004 ING Investments reported to the Boards of Directors/Trustees (the “Boards”) of the ING Funds that, like many U.S. financial services companies, ING Investments and certain of its U.S. affiliates have received informal and formal requests for information since September 2003 from various governmental and self-regulatory agencies in connection with investigations related to mutual funds and variable insurance products. ING Investments has advised the Boards that it and its affiliates have cooperated fully with each request.
In addition to responding to regulatory and governmental requests, ING Investments reported that management of U.S. affiliates of ING Groep N.V., including ING Investments (collectively, “ING”), on their own initiative, have conducted, through independent special counsel and a national accounting firm, an extensive internal review of trading in ING insurance, retirement, and mutual fund products. The goal of this review was to identify any instances of inappropriate trading in those products by third parties or by ING investment professionals and other ING personnel. ING’s internal review related to mutual fund trading is now substantially completed. ING has reported that, of the millions of customer relationships that ING maintains, the internal review identified several isolated arrangements allowing third parties to engage in frequent trading of mutual funds within ING’s variable insurance and mutual fund products, and identified other circumstances where frequent trading occurred, despite measures taken by ING intended to combat market timing. ING further reported that each of these arrangements has been terminated and fully disclosed to regulators. The results of the internal review were also reported to the independent members of the Board.
ING Investments has advised the Board that most of the identified arrangements were initiated prior to ING’s acquisition of the businesses in question in the U.S. ING Investments further reported that the companies in question did not receive special benefits in return for any of these arrangements, which have all been terminated.
Based on the internal review, ING Investments has advised the Board that the identified arrangements do not represent a systemic problem in any of the companies that were involved.
In September 2005, ING Funds Distributor, LLC (“IFD”), the distributor of certain ING Funds, settled an administrative proceeding with the NASD regarding three arrangements, dating from 1995, 1996 and 1998, under which the administrator to the then-Pilgrim Funds, which subsequently became part of the ING Funds, entered into formal and informal arrangements that permitted frequent trading. Under the terms of the Letter of Acceptance, Waiver and Consent (“AWC”) with the NASD, under which IFD neither admitted nor denied the allegations or findings, IFD consented to the following sanctions: (i) a censure; (ii) a fine of $1.5 million; (iii) restitution of approximately $1.44 million to certain ING Funds for losses attributable to excessive trading described in the AWC; and (iv) agreement to make certification to NASD regarding the review and establishment of certain procedures.
In addition to the arrangements discussed above, in 2004 ING Investments reported to the Board that, at that time, these instances include the following, in addition to the arrangements subject to the AWC discussed above:
• Aeltus Investment Management, Inc. (a predecessor entity to ING Investment Management Co.) has identified two investment professionals who engaged in extensive frequent trading in certain ING Funds. One was subsequently terminated for cause and incurred substantial financial penalties in connection with this conduct and the second has been disciplined.
• ReliaStar Life Insurance Company (“ReliaStar”) entered into agreements seven years ago permitting the owner of policies issued by the insurer to engage in frequent trading and to submit orders until 4pm Central Time. In 2001 ReliaStar also entered into a selling agreement with a broker-dealer that engaged in frequent trading. Employees of ING affiliates were terminated and/or disciplined in connection with these matters.
• In 1998, Golden American Life Insurance Company entered into arrangements permitting a broker-dealer to frequently trade up to certain specific limits in a fund available in an ING variable annuity product. No employee responsible for this arrangement remains at the company.
For additional information regarding these matters, you may consult the Form 8-K and Form 8-K/A for each of four life insurance companies, ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company, ING Life Insurance and Annuity Company, ING Insurance Company of America, and ReliaStar Life Insurance Company of New York, each filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on October 29, 2004 and September 8, 2004. These Forms 8-K and Forms 8-K/A

NOTE 13 — INFORMATION REGARDING TRADING OF ING’S U.S. MUTUAL FUNDS (continued)
can be accessed through the SEC’s Web site at http://www.sec.gov. Despite the extensive internal review conducted through independent special counsel and a national accounting firm, there can be no assurance that the instances of inappropriate trading reported to the Board are the only instances of such trading respecting the ING Funds.
ING Investments reported to the Board that ING is committed to conducting its business with the highest standards of ethical conduct with zero tolerance for noncompliance. Accordingly, ING Investments advised the Board that ING management was disappointed that its voluntary internal review identified these situations. Viewed in the context of the breadth and magnitude of its U.S. business as a whole, ING management does not believe that ING’s acquired companies had systemic ethical or compliance issues in these areas. Nonetheless, ING Investments reported that given ING’s refusal to tolerate any lapses, it has taken the steps noted below, and will continue to seek opportunities to further strengthen the internal controls of its affiliates.
• ING has agreed with the ING Funds to indemnify and hold harmless the ING Funds from all damages resulting from wrongful conduct by ING or its employees or from ING’s internal investigation, any investigations conducted by any governmental or self-regulatory agencies, litigation or other formal proceedings, including any proceedings by the Securities and Exchange Commission. ING Investments reported to the Board that ING management believes that the total amount of any indemnification obligations will not be material to ING or its U.S. business.
• ING updated its Code of Conduct for employees reinforcing its employees’ obligation to conduct personal trading activity consistent with the law, disclosed limits, and other requirements.
• The ING Funds, upon a recommendation from ING, updated their respective Codes of Ethics applicable to investment professionals with ING entities and certain other fund personnel, requiring such personnel to pre-clear any purchases or sales of ING Funds that are not systematic in nature (i.e., dividend reinvestment), and imposing minimum holding periods for shares of ING Funds.
• ING instituted excessive trading policies for all customers in its variable insurance and retirement products and for shareholders of the ING Funds sold to the public through financial intermediaries. ING does not make exceptions to these policies.
• ING reorganized and expanded its U.S. Compliance Department, and created an Enterprise Compliance team to enhance controls and consistency in regulatory compliance.
As has been widely reported in the media, the New York Attorney General’s office (“NYAG”) is conducting broad investigations regarding insurance quoting and brokerage practices. ING U.S. has been subpoenaed in this regard, and is cooperating fully with these NYAG requests for information.
ING U.S. believes that its practices are consistent with our business principles and our commitment to our customers.
At this time, in light of the current regulatory factors, ING U.S. is actively engaged in reviewing whether any modifications in our practices are appropriate for the future.
There can be no assurance that these matters, or the adverse publicity associated with them, will not result in increased fund redemptions, reduced sale of fund shares, or other adverse consequences to ING Funds.

ADVISORY CONTRACT APPROVAL DISCUSSION (UNAUDITED)
The Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), provides, in substance, that each investment advisory agreement and sub-advisory agreement for a Fund will terminate automatically after the initial term of the agreement (which term may not exceed two years), unless continuation of the agreement is approved annually by the Board of Trustees (the “Board”) of the Fund, including a majority of the Trustees who have no direct or indirect interest in the agreement and who are not “interested persons” of the Fund (the “Independent Trustees”). Consistent with this requirement of the 1940 Act, the Board has established a process for considering on an annual basis approval of the continuation of the Investment Management Agreement for each Fund (the “Advisory Agreement”) with ING Investments, LLC (the “Adviser”) and the sub-advisory agreement for each Fund (collectively, the “Sub-Advisory Agreements”) with each sub-adviser of the Funds (the “Sub-Advisers”). Set forth below is a description of the process followed by the Board in considering approval of the continuation of each Advisory and Sub-Advisory Agreement (collectively, the “Agreements”), together with an explanation of many of the factors considered and related conclusions reached by the Board in voting to approve the continuation of each Agreement for an additional one-year period commencing January 1, 2006.
Overview of the Review Process
At a meeting of the Board held on December 14, 2005, the Board, including all of the Independent Trustees, voted to approve continuation of each of the existing Advisory and Sub-Advisory Agreements for the Funds. Prior to voting such approvals, the Board received the affirmative recommendation of the Contracts Committee of the Board, which is a Committee of the Board comprised of all of the Independent Trustees and exclusively of the Independent Trustees. The Contracts Committee recommended approval of the Advisory and Sub-Advisory Agreements after completing an extensive review of information requested by the Committee from the Adviser and each Sub-Adviser, including the following: (1) comparative performance data for each Fund for various time periods; (2) comparative data regarding management fees, including data regarding the fees charged by the Adviser and Sub-Advisers for managing other mutual funds and institutional accounts using investment strategies and techniques similar to those used in managing the Funds; (3) comparative data regarding the total expenses of each Fund; (4) copies of each form of Advisory Agreement and Sub-Advisory Agreement; (5) copies of the codes of ethics of the Adviser and each Sub-Adviser, together with information relating to the manner in which each code is administered; (6) financial statements of the Adviser and each Sub-Adviser; (7) profitability analyses for the Adviser and each Sub-Adviser with respect to each Fund, and all Funds as a group; (8) descriptions of the qualifications of the investment personnel responsible for managing each Fund, their compensation and their responsibilities with respect to managing other accounts or mutual funds; (9) descriptions of the services provided to the Funds, including the investment strategies and techniques used by each Sub-Adviser in managing the Funds; (10) data relating to portfolio turnover and brokerage practices, including practices with respect to the acquisition of research through “soft dollar” benefits received in connection with the Funds’ brokerage; (11) data comparing the performance of certain Funds against “static portfolios” of the Funds over various time periods; (12) descriptions of the business continuity and disaster recovery plans of the Adviser and each Sub-Adviser; (13) descriptions of various compliance programs of the Adviser and Sub-Advisers, including the Adviser’s programs for monitoring and enforcing compliance with the Funds’ policies with respect to market-timing, late trading and selective portfolio disclosure; and (14) other information relevant to an evaluation of the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the Adviser and each Sub-Adviser in response to a series of detailed questions presented by independent legal counsel on behalf of the Independent Trustees.
The Contracts Committee began the formal review process in July 2005 when it met separately with independent legal counsel to review the information to be requested from management and the methodology to be used in determining the selected peer groups for comparing performance and expenses. The Contracts Committee then held meetings on November 1 and 2, 2005 and December 13, 2005, during which the Independent Trustees, meeting separately with independent legal counsel, reviewed and evaluated the information described above. As part of the review process, the Contracts Committee also met with representatives from the Adviser and the Sub-Advisers to discuss the information provided to the Committee. The Contracts Committee also considered information that had been provided by the Adviser and Sub-Advisers throughout the year at other meetings of the Contracts Committee, the Audit Committee, the Compliance Committee and the Board.
The Independent Trustees were assisted by Goodwin Procter LLP, their independent legal counsel, throughout the contract review process. The Independent Trustees relied upon the advice of such counsel and their own business
101
ADVISORY CONTRACT APPROVAL DISCUSSION (UNAUDITED) (CONTINUED)
judgment in determining the material factors to be considered in evaluating each Advisory and Sub-Advisory Agreement and the weight to be given to each such factor. The conclusions reached by the Independent Trustees were based on a comprehensive evaluation of all of the information provided and was not the result of any one factor. Moreover, each Independent Trustee may have afforded different weight to the various factors in reaching his or her conclusions with respect to each Advisory and Sub-Advisory Agreement.
Nature, Extent and Quality of Services
In considering whether to approve the Advisory and Sub-Advisory Agreements for the Funds for the year commencing January 1, 2006, the Board evaluated the nature, extent and quality of services provided to the Funds by the Adviser and Sub-Advisers. The Board considered the investment management and related services provided by the Adviser and Sub-Advisers, including the quantity and quality of the resources available to provide such services. Among other things, the Board considered the qualifications of the individuals responsible for performing various investment related services. With respect to Funds sub-advised by an affiliate of the Adviser, the Board also received information regarding the compensation paid by the Sub-Adviser to attract and retain individuals to perform these services on both an absolute basis and relative to amounts paid by others in the investment management industry.
The Board also considered the quality of the compliance programs of the Adviser and each Sub-Adviser, including the manner in which the Adviser and each Sub-Adviser monitor for compliance with the investment policies and restrictions of a Fund, the Codes of Ethics of the Adviser and Sub-Advisers with respect to personal trading by employees with access to portfolio information, and other compliance related matters. The Board also considered the actions taken by the Adviser and Sub-Advisers to establish and maintain effective disaster recovery and business continuity plans.
The Board considered the actions taken by the Adviser and its affiliated companies to administer the Funds’ policies and procedures for voting proxies, valuing the Funds’ assets, selective disclosure of portfolio holdings and preventing late-trading and frequent trading of Fund shares. With respect to these and related compliance matters, the Board also considered the responsiveness of the Adviser and its affiliated companies over the course of the past several years to the inquiries of various regulatory authorities, including the Securities and Exchange Commission and the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc.
The Board also took into account the efforts of the Adviser and its affiliated companies to reduce the expenses of the Funds, including fees and expenses for transfer agency, custody and audit services. With respect to those Funds that are sub-advised by an affiliate of the Adviser, the Board specifically noted that the Adviser and its affiliated companies have significantly reduced the Funds’ brokerage costs and portfolio turnover rates, as well as the quantity of research acquired through the use of soft dollars from the Funds’ brokerage. The Board also noted the efforts of the Adviser to optimize the number of Funds in the ING complex of mutual funds and to standardize the asset management characteristics and policies across the ING mutual fund platform. Consideration was also given to the benefits that shareholders of the Funds realize because the Funds are part of a larger ING family of mutual funds, including, in most cases, the ability of shareholders to exchange or transfer investments within the same class of shares among a wide variety of mutual funds without incurring additional sales charges.
The Board concluded that the nature, extent and quality of advisory and related services provided by the Adviser and each of the Sub-Advisers, taken as a whole, are consistent with the terms of the respective Advisory and Sub-Advisory Agreements and justify the fees paid by the Funds for such services.
Fund Performance
The Board reviewed each Fund’s investment performance over various time periods on an absolute basis and relative to the performance of (i) one or more appropriate benchmark indexes (such as the S&P 500 Composite Stock Price Index), (ii) a group of similarly managed mutual funds identified by Lipper, Inc. and/or Morningstar, Inc., and (iii) similarly managed mutual funds within a specified peer group based upon a methodology approved by the Contracts Committee (each, a “Selected Peer Group”). The Board reviewed comparative performance data for the one-, three-, five-, and ten-year periods, where applicable, ending June 30, 2005 and September 30, 2005. Summaries of selected portions of the performance information reviewed by the Board, together with the Board’s conclusions regarding the performance of each Fund, is set forth below under “Fund-by-Fund Analysis.”
102
ADVISORY CONTRACT APPROVAL DISCUSSION (UNAUDITED) (CONTINUED)
Management Fees, Sub-Advisory Fees and Expenses
Consideration was given to the contractual investment advisory fee rates, inclusive of administrative fee rates, payable by the Funds to the Adviser and its affiliated companies (referred to collectively as “management fees”) and the contractual sub-advisory fee rates payable by the Adviser to each Sub-Adviser for sub-advisory services. As part of its review, the Board considered each Fund’s management fee and total expense ratio, as compared to its Selected Peer Group, both before and after giving effect to any undertaking by the Adviser to waive fees and/or limit the total expenses of a Fund. In addition, the Trustees received information regarding the fees charged by each Sub-Adviser to similarly-managed institutional accounts and other mutual funds, if any, and the comparability (or lack thereof) of the services provided by the Sub-Adviser in managing such accounts and other mutual funds to the services provided in managing the Funds. With respect to the Funds sub-advised by an affiliate of the Adviser, the Board evaluated the reasonableness of the fees payable under the Advisory and Sub-Advisory Agreements as a whole. With respect to the Funds sub-advised by Sub-Advisers that are not affiliated with the Adviser, the Board considered the reasonableness of the fees payable to the Sub-Advisers by the Adviser in light of the ability of the Adviser to negotiate such fees on an arms-length basis. Summaries of selected portions of the fee and expense information reviewed are set forth below under “Fund-by-Fund Analysis.” After reviewing the foregoing information, and in light of the nature extent and quality of the services provided by the Adviser and each Sub-Adviser, the Board concluded with respect to each Fund that the management fee charged to the Fund for advisory, sub-advisory and related services is fair and reasonable and that the total expense ratio of the Fund is reasonable.
Profitability
The Board considered information relating to revenues, expenses, and profits realized by the Adviser and each Sub-Adviser attributable to performing advisory, sub-advisory and administrative services for the Funds. With respect to Funds sub-advised by an unaffiliated Sub-Adviser, the Board did not consider the profitability of the Sub-Adviser to be a material factor because the Board believes that the Adviser negotiates sub-advisory fees with the unaffiliated Sub-Adviser on an arms-length basis. The Board reviewed profitability data for the Adviser and its affiliated companies, including the distributor of the Funds, relating to (i) each Fund separately, (ii) all Funds as a group, (iii) all “retail” Funds as a group, and (iv) all variable insurance product Funds as a group, in each case for the one-year periods ended December 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003, the nine-month period ended September 30, 2005 and the six-month period ended June 30, 2005. With respect to the Adviser and its affiliated companies, such information was prepared in accordance with a methodology approved by the Contracts Committee. The Board considered the profitability of the Adviser and its affiliated companies attributable to managing and operating each Fund both with and without the profitability of the distributor of the Funds and both before and after giving effect to any expenses incurred by the Adviser or any affiliated company in making revenue sharing or other payments to third parties, including affiliated insurance companies, for distribution and administrative services. With respect to Funds sub-advised by an affiliate of the Adviser, the Board considered the profitability of the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser attributable to managing and operating each Fund as a whole. The Board also considered other direct or indirect benefits that the Adviser and Sub-Advisers, and any affiliated companies thereof, derive from their relationships with the Funds, including the receipt by ING U.S. Financial Services, an affiliate of the Adviser, of fees relating to the offering of bundled financial products, such as annuity contracts, and the receipt by Sub-Advisers of “soft dollar” benefits from the Funds’ brokerage. The Board concluded that, in light of the nature, extent and quality of the services provided, the profits realized by the Adviser and its affiliated companies, taken as a whole, with respect to providing advisory, sub-advisory and administrative services for each Fund are reasonable.
Economies of Scale
In considering the reasonableness of the management fee of each Fund, the Board considered the extent to which economies of scale can be expected to be realized by a Fund’s Adviser and its affiliated companies, on the one hand, and by the Fund, on the other hand, as the assets of the Fund increase. The Board noted that the advisory fee for certain Funds includes breakpoints such that, as the assets of the Fund increase, the Fund’s management fee will decrease as a percentage of the Fund’s total assets. The Board recognized the inherent difficulties in measuring precisely the impact of any economies of scale being realized by the Adviser and its affiliated
103
ADVISORY CONTRACT APPROVAL DISCUSSION (UNAUDITED) (CONTINUED)
companies with respect to their management of any one or more Funds. In an effort to determine the extent to which economies of scale, if any, will be realized by the Adviser and its affiliated companies as the assets of the Funds grow, the Board considered the profitability data described above relating to the Adviser and its affiliated companies in light of changes in the assets of the Funds over various time periods. The Board noted that the total assets under management of many Funds have decreased during the past several years and concluded that the economies of scale realized by the Adviser and its affiliated companies from managing the Funds have not increased with respect to such Funds. The Board also reviewed information regarding the expense ratio of each Fund in light of changes in the assets of the Funds over various time periods, noting that, as the assets of a Fund increase, the fixed expenses of the Fund, as a percentage of the total assets of the Fund, can be expected to decrease. The Board considered such expense information in light of projections provided by the Adviser with respect to the future growth of assets of the Funds. Based upon the foregoing, the Board concluded that the economies of scale being realized by the Adviser and its affiliated companies do not mandate the implementation of breakpoints or additional breakpoints, as the case may be, with respect to any Fund at this time.
Fund-by-Fund Analysis
In deciding to approve the continuation of each Advisory and Sub-Advisory Agreement for an additional one-year period beginning January 1, 2006, the Board took into account the specific data and factors identified below relating to the performance, fees and expenses of each Fund and actions being taken by the Adviser or Sub-Adviser, as the case may be, with respect to these matters. Except as otherwise indicated, the performance data described below for each Fund is for periods ended September 30, 2005 and the management fees and expense data described below are as of June 30, 2005.
ING VP Index Plus LargeCap Portfolio
In evaluating the investment performance of ING VP Index Plus LargeCap Portfolio, the Board noted that: (1) the Portfolio outperformed its Morningstar category median and its benchmark for the most recent calendar quarter, year-to-date and one-year periods, but underperformed for the three- and five-year periods; and (2) the Portfolio is ranked in its Morningstar category in the third quintile for the most recent calendar quarter, year-to-date, one- and three-year periods and in the fourth quintile for the five-year period. The Board further noted that, in an effort to address concerns regarding the Portfolio’s performance, in July 2004 the Sub-Adviser hired a new Director of Quantitative Research and a new team of analysts within this department with responsibility for developing and administering the models used for identifying and selecting appropriate weighting of securities in the Portfolio and that the performance of the Portfolio has improved. The Board concluded that appropriate actions are being taken to improve performance and that additional time is needed to evaluate the effectiveness of these actions.
In assessing the reasonableness of the management fee and expense ratio for ING VP Index Plus LargeCap Portfolio, the Board noted that the management fee for the Portfolio is below the median and average management fees of the funds in its Selected Peer Group and that the expense ratio for the Portfolio is below the median and average expense ratios of the funds in its Selected Peer Group.
ING VP Index Plus MidCap Portfolio
In evaluating the investment performance of ING VP Index Plus MidCap Portfolio, the Board noted that: (1) the Portfolio outperformed its Morningstar category median for the year-to-date, one- and five-year periods, but underperformed for the most recent calendar quarter and three-year periods; (2) the Portfolio underperformed its benchmark for all periods presented; and (3) the Portfolio is ranked in its Morningstar category in the second quintile for the year-to-date and one-year periods, the third quintile for the five-year period and in the fourth quintile for the most recent calendar quarter and three-year periods. The Board further noted that, in an effort to address concerns regarding the Portfolio’s performance, in July 2004 the Sub-Adviser hired a new Director of Quantitative Research and a new team of analysts within this department with responsibility for developing and administering the models used for identifying and selecting appropriate weighting of securities in the Portfolio and that the performance of the Portfolio has improved. The Board concluded that appropriate actions are being taken to improve performance and that additional time is needed to evaluate the effectiveness of these actions.

ING VP Index Plus SmallCap Portfolio
In evaluating the investment performance of ING VP Index Plus SmallCap Portfolio, the Board noted that: (1) the Fund outperformed its Morningstar category median for the most recent calendar quarter, year-to-date and one-year periods, but underperformed for the three- and five-year periods; (2) the Fund underperformed its benchmark for all periods presented; and (3) the Fund is ranked in its Morningstar category in the second quintile for the year-to-date and one-year periods and in the third quintile for the most recent calendar quarter, three- and five-year periods. The Board further noted that, in an effort to address concerns regarding the Portfolio’s performance, in July 2004 the Sub-Adviser hired a new Director of Quantitative Research and a new team of analysts within this department with responsibility for developing and administering the models used for identifying and selecting appropriate weighting of securities in the Portfolio and that the performance of the Portfolio has improved.

AUDIT AND NON-AUDIT SERVICES
PRE-APPROVAL POLICY
I. Statement of Principles
Under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the “Act”), the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors or Trustees (the “Committee”) of the ING Funds (each a “Fund,” collectively, the “Funds”) set out under Paragraph I on Exhibit A to this Audit and Non-Audit Services Pre-Approval Policy (“Policy”) is responsible for the oversight of the work of the Funds’ independent auditors. As part of its responsibilities, the Committee must pre-approve the audit and non-audit services performed by the auditors in order to assure that the provision of these services does not impair the auditors’ independence from the Funds. The Committee has adopted, and the Board has ratified, this Policy, which sets out the procedures and conditions under which the services of the independent auditors may be pre-approved.
Under Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules promulgated in accordance with the Act, the Funds’ may establish two different approaches to pre-approving audit and non-audit services. The Committee may approve services without consideration of specific case-by-case services (“general pre-approval”) or it may pre-approve specific services (“specific pre-approval”). The Committee believes that the combination of these approaches contemplated in this Policy results in an effective and efficient method for pre-approving audit and non-audit services to be performed by the Funds’ independent auditors. Under this Policy, services that are not of a type that may receive general pre-approval require specific pre-approval by the Committee. Any proposed services that exceed pre-approved cost levels or budgeted amounts will also require the Committee’s specific pre-approval.
For both types of approval, the Committee considers whether the subject services are consistent with the SEC’s rules on auditor independence and that such services are compatible with maintaining the auditors’ independence. The Committee also considers whether a particular audit firm is in the best position to provide effective and efficient services to the Funds. Reasons that the auditors are in the best position include the auditors’ familiarity with the Funds’ business, personnel, culture, accounting systems, risk profile, and other factors, and whether the services will enhance the Funds’ ability to manage and control risk or improve audit quality. Such factors will be considered as a whole, with no one factor being determinative.
The appendices attached to this Policy describe the audit, audit-related, tax-related, and other services that have the Committee’s general pre-approval. For any service that has been approved through general pre-approval, the general pre-approval will remain in place for a period 12 months from the date of pre-approval, unless the Committee determines that a different period is appropriate. The Committee will annually review and pre-approve the services that may be provided by the independent auditors without specific pre-approval. The Committee will revise the list of services subject to general pre-approval as appropriate. This Policy does not serve as a delegation to Fund management of the Committee’s duty to pre-approve services performed by the Funds’ independent auditors.
3
II. Audit Services
The annual audit services engagement terms and fees are subject to the Committee’s specific pre-approval. Audit services are those services that are normally provided by auditors in connection with statutory and regulatory filings or engagements or those that generally only independent auditors can reasonably provide. They include the Funds’ annual financial statement audit and procedures that the independent auditors must perform in order to form an opinion on the Funds’ financial statements (e.g., information systems and procedural reviews and testing). The Committee will monitor the audit services engagement and approve any changes in terms, conditions or fees deemed by the Committee to be necessary or appropriate.
The Committee may grant general pre-approval to other audit services, such as statutory audits and services associated with SEC registration statements, periodic reports and other documents filed with the SEC or issued in connection with securities offerings.
The Committee has pre-approved the audit services listed on Appendix A. The Committee must specifically approve all audit services not listed on Appendix A.
III. Audit-related Services
Audit-related services are assurance and related services that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit or the review of the Funds’ financial statements or are traditionally performed by the independent auditors. The Committee believes that the provision of audit-related services will not impair the independent auditors’ independence, and therefore may grant pre-approval to audit-related services. Audit-related services include accounting consultations related to accounting, financial reporting or disclosure matters not classified as “audit services;” assistance with understanding and implementing new accounting and financial reporting guidance from rulemaking authorities; agreed-upon or expanded audit procedures relating to accounting and/or billing records required to respond to or comply with financial, accounting or regulatory reporting matters; and assistance with internal control reporting requirements under Form N-SAR or Form N-CSR.
The Committee has pre-approved the audit-related services listed on Appendix B. The Committee must specifically approve all audit-related services not listed on Appendix B.
IV. Tax Services
The Committee believes the independent auditors can provide tax services to the Funds, including tax compliance, tax planning, and tax advice, without compromising the auditors’ independence. Therefore, the Committee may grant general pre-approval with respect to tax services historically provided by the Funds’ independent auditors that do not, in the Committee’s view, impair auditor independence and that are consistent with the SEC’s rules on auditor independence.
The Committee will not grant pre-approval if the independent auditors initially recommends a transaction the sole business purpose of which is tax avoidance and the tax treatment of which may
4
not be supported in the Internal Revenue Code and related regulations. The Committee may consult outside counsel to determine that tax planning and reporting positions are consistent with this Policy.
The Committee has pre-approved the tax-related services listed on Appendix C. The Committee must specifically approve all tax-related services not listed on Appendix C.
V. Other Services
The Committee believes it may grant approval of non-audit services that are permissible services for independent auditors to a Fund. The Committee has determined to grant general pre-approval to other services that it believes are routine and recurring, do not impair auditor independence, and are consistent with SEC rules on auditor independence.
The Committee has pre-approved the non-audit services listed on Appendix D. The Committee must specifically approve all non-audit services not listed on Appendix D.
A list of the SEC’s prohibited non-audit services is attached to this Policy as Appendix E. The SEC’s rules and relevant guidance should be consulted to determine the precise definitions of these impermissible services and the applicability of exceptions to certain of the SEC’s prohibitions.
VI. Pre-approval of Fee levels and Budgeted Amounts
The Committee will annually establish pre-approval fee levels or budgeted amounts for audit, audit-related, tax and non-audit services to be provided to the Funds by the independent auditors. Any proposed services exceeding these levels or amounts require the Committee’s specific pre-approval. The Committee considers fees for audit and non-audit services when deciding whether to pre-approve services. The Committee may determine, for a pre-approval period of 12 months, the appropriate ratio between the total amount of fees for the Fund’s audit, audit-related, and tax services (including fees for services provided to Fund affiliates that are subject to pre-approval), and the total amount of fees for certain permissible non-audit services for the Fund classified as other services (including any such services provided to Fund affiliates that are subject to pre-approval).
VII. Procedures
Requests or applications for services to be provided by the independent auditors will be submitted to management. If management determines that the services do not fall within those services generally pre-approved by the Committee and set out in the appendices to these procedures, management will submit the services to the Committee or its delagee. Any such submission will include a detailed description of the services to be rendered.
Notwithstanding this paragraph, the Committee will, on quarterly basis, receive from the independent auditors a list of services provided to date by the auditors during Pre-Approval Period.
5
VIII. Delegation
The Committee may delegate pre-approval authority to one or more of the Committee’s members. Any member or members to whom such pre-approval authority is delegated must report any pre-approval decisions, including any pre-approved services, to the Committee at its next scheduled meeting. The Committee will identify any member to whom pre-approval authority is delegated in writing. The member will retain such authority for a period of 12 months from the date of pre-approval unless the Committee determines that a different period is appropriate. The period of delegated authority may be terminated by the Committee or at the option of the member.
IX. Additional Requirements
The Committee will take any measures the Committee deems necessary or appropriate to oversee the work of the independent auditors and to assure the auditors’ independence from the Funds. This may include reviewing a formal written statement from the independent auditors delineating all relationships between the auditors and the Funds, consistent with Independence Standards Board No. 1, and discussing with the auditors their methods and procedures for ensuring independence.

Item 10. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
The Nominating Committee operates pursuant to a Charter approved by the Board. The primary purpose of the Nominating Committee is to consider, evaluate and make recommendations to the Board with respect to the nomination and selection of Independent Trustees. In evaluating candidates, the Nominating Committee may consider a variety of factors, but specific qualifications of candidates for Board membership will be based on the needs of the Board at the time of nomination.
The Nominating Committee is willing to consider nominations received from shareholders and shall assess shareholder nominees in the same manner as it reviews nominees it identifies. A shareholder nominee for director should be submitted in writing to the Fund’s Secretary. Any such shareholder nomination should include sufficient background information concerning the candidate and should be received in a timely manner. At a minimum, the following information as to each individual proposed for nomination as director should be included: the individual’s written consent to be named in the proxy statement as a nominee (if nominated) and to serve as a director (if elected), and all information relating to such individual that is required to be disclosed in a solicitation of proxies for election of directors, or is otherwise required, in each case under applicable federal securities laws, rules and regulations.
The Secretary shall submit all nominations received in a timely manner to the Nominating Committee. To be timely, any such submission must be delivered to the Fund’s Secretary not earlier than the 90th day prior to such meeting and not later than the close of business on the later of the 60th day prior to such meeting or the 10th day following the day on which public announcement of the date of the meeting is first made, by either disclosure in a press release or in a document publicly filed by the Fund with the SEC.
In evaluating a candidate for the position of Independent Trustee, including any candidate recommended by shareholders of the Fund, the Nominating Committee shall consider the following: (i) the candidate’s knowledge in matters relating to the mutual fund industry; (ii) any experience possessed by the candidate as a director or senior officer of other public companies; (iii) the candidate’s educational background, reputation for high ethical standards and professional integrity; (iv) any specific financial, technical or other expertise possessed by the candidate, and the extent to which such expertise would complement the Board’s existing mix of skills, core competencies and qualifications; (v) the candidate’s perceived ability to contribute to the ongoing functions of the Board, including the candidate’s ability and commitment to attend meetings regularly and work collaboratively with other members of the Board; (vi) the candidate’s ability to qualify as an Independent Trustee for purposes of the 1940 Act; and (vii) such other factors as the Committee determines to be relevant in light of the existing composition of the Board and any anticipated vacancies. Prior to making a final recommendation to the Board, the Committee shall conduct personal interviews with those candidates it concludes are the most qualified candidates.
