Dear Shareholder:
On behalf of the Board of Trustees (the “Board”) of ING Bond Portfolio (“Bond Portfolio”), we are pleased to invite you to a special meeting of shareholders (the “Special Meeting”) of Bond Portfolio. The Special Meeting is scheduled for 1:00 P.M., Local time, on February 27, 2014, at 7337 East Doubletree Ranch Road, Suite 100, Scottsdale, Arizona 85258-2034.
At the Special Meeting shareholders of Bond Portfolio will be asked to vote on the proposed reorganization (the “Reorganization”) of Bond Portfolio with and into ING Intermediate Bond Portfolio (“Intermediate Bond Portfolio”) (together with Bond Portfolio, the “Portfolios,” each a “Portfolio”). Each Portfolio is a member of the mutual fund group called the “ING Funds.”
Shares of Bond Portfolio have been purchased by you or at your direction through your qualified pension or retirement plan (collectively, “Qualified Plans”) or, at your direction by your insurance company, through its separate accounts to serve as an investment option under your variable annuity contract or variable life insurance policy. If the Reorganization is approved by shareholders, the separate account in which you have an interest or the Qualified Plan in which you are a participant will own shares of Intermediate Bond Portfolio instead of shares of Bond Portfolio beginning on the date the Reorganization occurs. The Reorganization would provide the separate account in which you have an interest or the Qualified Plan in which you are a participant with an opportunity to participate in a larger combined Portfolio that seeks to maximize total return consistent with reasonable risk.
Formal notice of the Special Meeting appears on the next page, followed by a combined proxy statement and prospectus (the “Proxy Statement/Prospectus”). The Reorganization is discussed in detail in the enclosed Proxy Statement/Prospectus, which you should read carefully. After careful consideration, the Board recommends that you vote “FOR” the Reorganization.
Your vote is important regardless of the number of shares you own. To avoid the added cost of follow-up solicitations and possible adjournments, please take the time to read the Proxy Statement/Prospectus and cast your vote. It is important that your vote be received no later than February 26, 2014.
We appreciate your participation and prompt response in this matter and thank you for your continued support.
| Sincerely, |
| |

INTRODUCTION
What is happening?
On September 13, 2013 the investment adviser to the ING Bond Portfolio (“Bond Portfolio”) and ING Intermediate Bond Portfolio (“Intermediate Bond Portfolio,” together with Bond Portfolio, the “Portfolios) proposed and the Board of Trustees (the “Board”) approved an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization (the “Reorganization Agreement”). The Reorganization Agreement provides for the reorganization of Bond Portfolio with and into Intermediate Bond Portfolio (the “Reorganization”). The Reorganization Agreement requires shareholder approval, and, if approved, is expected to be effective on March 14, 2014, or such other date as the parties may agree (the “Closing Date”).
Why did you send me this booklet?
Shares of Bond Portfolio have been purchased by you or at your direction through your qualified pension or retirement plan (“Qualified Plans”) or, at your direction, by your insurance company through its separate accounts (“Separate Accounts”) to serve as an investment option under your variable annuity and/or variable life contract (“Variable Contract”).
This booklet includes a combined proxy statement and prospectus (the “Proxy Statement/Prospectus”) and a Proxy Ballot or Voting Instruction Card for Bond Portfolio. It provides you with information you should review before providing voting instructions on the matters listed in the Notice of Special Meeting.
The Separate Accounts and Qualified Plans or their trustees, as record owners of Bond Portfolio shares are, in most cases, the true “shareholders” of Bond Portfolio; however, participants in Qualified Plans (“Plan Participants”) or holders of Variable Contracts (“Variable Contracts Holders”) may be asked to instruct their Qualified Plan trustee or Separate Accounts, as applicable, as to how they would like the shares attributed to their Qualified Plan or Variable Contract to be voted. For clarity and ease of reading, references to “shareholder” or “you” throughout this Proxy Statement/Prospectus do not refer to the technical shareholder but rather refer to the persons who are being asked to provide voting instructions with respect to the proposals, unless the context indicates otherwise. Similarly, for ease of reading, references to “voting” or “vote” do not refer to the technical vote but rather to the voting instructions provided by Variable Contracts Holders or Plan Participants.
Because you are being asked to approve a Reorganization Agreement that will result in a transaction in which you will ultimately hold shares of Intermediate Bond Portfolio, this Proxy Statement also serves as a prospectus for Intermediate Bond Portfolio. Intermediate Bond Portfolio is an open-end management investment company, which seeks to maximize total return consistent with reasonable risk, as described more fully below.
Who is eligible to vote?
Shareholders holding an investment in shares of Bond Portfolio as of the close of business on December 13, 2013 (the “Record Date”) are eligible to vote at the Special Meeting or any adjournments or postponements thereof.
How do I vote?
You may submit your Proxy Ballot or Voting Instruction Card in one of four ways:
· By Internet. The web address and instructions for voting can be found on the enclosed Proxy Ballot or Voting Instruction Card. You will be required to provide your control number located on the Proxy Ballot or Voting Instruction Card.
· By Telephone. The toll-free number for telephone voting can be found on the enclosed Proxy Ballot or Voting Instruction Card. You will be required to provide your control number located on the Proxy Ballot or Voting Instruction Card.
· By Mail. Mark the enclosed Proxy Ballot or Voting Instruction Card, sign and date it, and return it in the postage-paid envelope we provided. Joint owners must each sign the Proxy Ballot or Voting Instruction Card.
· In Person at the Special Meeting. You can vote your shares in person at the Special Meeting. If you expect to attend the Special Meeting in person, please call Shareholder Services toll-free at (800) 992-0180.

How does the Board recommend that I vote?
The Board recommends that shareholders vote “FOR” the Reorganization.
When and where will the Special Meeting be held?
The Special Meeting is scheduled to be held at 7337 East Doubletree Ranch Road, Suite 100, Scottsdale, Arizona 85258-2034, on February 27, 2014, at 1:00 P.M., Local time, and, if the Special Meeting is adjourned or postponed, any adjournments or postponements of the Special Meeting will also be held at the above location.

SUMMARY OF THE PROPOSED REORANIZATION
You should read this entire Proxy Statement/Prospectus carefully. You should also review the Reorganization Agreement, which is attached hereto as Appendix A. For more information about Intermediate Bond Portfolio, please consult Appendix B and the Prospectus dated April 30, 2013.
Subject to shareholder approval, the Reorganization Agreement provides for:
· the transfer of all of the assets of Bond Portfolio to Intermediate Bond Portfolio in exchange for shares of beneficial interest of Intermediate Bond Portfolio;
· the assumption by Intermediate Bond Portfolio of all the liabilities of Bond Portfolio;
· the distribution of shares of Intermediate Bond Portfolio to the shareholders of Bond Portfolio; and
· the complete liquidation of Bond Portfolio.
If shareholders approve the Reorganization, each owner of shares of Bond Portfolio would become a shareholder of Class S shares of Intermediate Bond Portfolio. The Reorganization is expected to be effective on the Closing Date. Each shareholder of Bond Portfolio will hold, immediately after the Closing Date, shares of Intermediate Bond Portfolio having an aggregate value equal to the aggregate value of the shares of Bond Portfolio held by that shareholder as of the close of business on the Closing Date.
In considering whether to approve the Reorganization, you should note that:
· Bond Portfolio and Intermediate Bond Portfolio have substantially similar investment objectives and investment strategies.
· ING Investments, LLC (“ING Investments” or the “Adviser”) serves as adviser to both Portfolios. ING Investment Management Co. LLC (“ING IM”) serves as sub-adviser to both Portfolios.
· The gross and net expense ratios experienced by shareholders of Bond Portfolio are expected to decrease as a result of the Reorganization.
· As of June 30, 2013, Bond Portfolio had approximately $415 million in net assets and Intermediate Bond Portfolio had approximately $2.1 billion in net assets.
· The Reorganization will not affect a shareholder’s right to purchase, redeem, or exchange shares of the Portfolios. In addition, the Reorganization will not affect how shareholders purchase and sell their shares.
· Each Portfolio is distributed by ING Investments Distributor, LLC (the “Distributor”).
· The Reorganization is intended to qualify for federal income tax purposes as a tax-free reorganization pursuant to Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”); accordingly, pursuant to this treatment, neither Bond Portfolio nor its shareholders, nor Intermediate Bond Portfolio nor its shareholders are expected to recognize any gain or loss for federal income tax purposes from the transactions contemplated by the Reorganization Agreement.

PROPOSAL ONE — APPROVAL OF THE REORGANIZATION
What is the proposed Reorganization?
Shareholders of Bond Portfolio are being asked to approve a Reorganization Agreement, providing for the reorganization of Bond Portfolio with and into Intermediate Bond Portfolio. If the Reorganization is approved, shareholders in Bond Portfolio will become shareholders in Intermediate Bond Portfolio as of the close of business on the Closing Date.
Why is a Reorganization proposed?
The Adviser and its affiliates are in the process of conducting a comprehensive review of the mutual funds offered within the ING Funds Complex. At the September 2013 Board Meeting, the Adviser presented to the Board a series of proposals, including the Reorganization, which were intended to, among other things, enhance the efficiency and reduce the complexity of the ING Funds Complex. In support of its proposal, ING Investments noted that both Bond Portfolio and Intermediate Bond Portfolio have the same portfolio managers and are managed pursuant to substantially similar investment strategies. In addition, the Adviser noted that Intermediate Bond Portfolio had lower gross and net expenses.
How do the Investment Objectives compare?
As described in the chart that follows, the Portfolios have substantially similar investment objectives.
| | Bond Portfolio | | Intermediate Bond Portfolio | |
Investment Objective | | The Portfolio seeks to provide maximum total return through income and capital appreciation. | | The Portfolio seeks to maximize total return consistent with reasonable risk. The Portfolio seeks its objective through investments in a diversified portfolio consisting primarily of debt securities. It is anticipated that capital appreciation and investment income will both be major factors in achieving total return. | |
How do the Annual Portfolio Operating Expenses compare?
The table below describes the fees and expenses that you may pay if you buy and hold shares of the Portfolios. Pro forma fees and expenses, which are the estimated fees and expenses of Intermediate Bond Portfolio after giving effect to the Reorganization, assume that the Reorganization occurred on June 30, 2013. Both the gross and net expenses of Intermediate Bond Portfolio are lower than the gross and net expenses of Bond Portfolio. This table does not reflect fees or expenses that are, or may be, imposed under your Variable Contract or a Qualified Plan. For more information on these charges, please refer to the documents governing your Variable Contract or consult your plan administrator.

(1) Expense ratios have been adjusted to reflect current expense rates.
(2) Prior to July 20, 2012, the Portfolio operated as a feeder fund and invested all of its assets in Class 1 shares of a master fund, the American Funds Insurance Series® Bond Fund (“Master Fund”), and the management fee previously paid by the Portfolio was that of the Master Fund. This management fee was not paid to the Adviser.
(3) Prior to July 20, 2012, the Portfolio did not pay an administrative services fee.
(4) Total Annual Portfolio Operating Expenses may be higher than the Portfolio’s ratio of expenses to average net assets shown in the Portfolio’s Financial Highlights, which reflects the operating expenses of the Portfolio and does not include Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses.
(5) The adviser is contractually obligated to limit expenses to 0.99% through May 1, 2015; the obligation does not extend to interest, taxes, brokerage commissions, Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses, and extraordinary expenses. The obligation will automatically renew for one-year terms unless: (i) the adviser provides 90 days written notice of its termination; and (ii) such termination is approved by the Board; or (iii) the Investment Advisory Agreement has been terminated. The obligation is subject to possible recoupment by the adviser within three years. In addition, the distributor is contractually obligated to waive a portion of its distribution fee such that the Portfolio’s Total Annual Portfolio Operating Expenses after Waivers and Reimbursements do not exceed 0.75% through May 1, 2015. There is no guarantee that the distribution fee waiver will continue after May 1, 2015. The distribution fee waiver will renew if the distributor elects to renew it. Any fees waived pursuant to the distribution fee waiver shall not be eligible for recoupment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, termination or modification of this distribution fee waiver requires approval by the Portfolio’s Board.

(6) If shareholders approve the Reorganization, the Adviser is contractually obligated to limit expenses to 0.80% for Class S through May 1, 2015. The obligation does not extend to interest, taxes, brokerage commissions, Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses, and extraordinary expenses. The obligation will automatically renew for one-year terms unless: (i) the adviser provides 90 days written notice of its termination; and (ii) such termination is approved by the Board; or (iii) the Investment Advisory Agreement has been terminated. The obligation is subject to possible recoupment by the adviser within three years.
Expense Examples
The Examples are intended to help you compare the costs of investing in shares of the Portfolios with the costs of investing in other mutual funds. The Examples do not reflect expenses and charges which are, or may be, imposed under your Variable Contract or Qualified Plan. The Examples assume that you invest $10,000 in the Portfolios for the time periods indicated. The Examples also assume that your investment had a 5% return during each year and that the Portfolios’ operating expenses remain the same. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower based on these assumptions your costs would be:
Bond Portfolio | | Intermediate Bond Portfolio | | Intermediate Bond Portfolio Pro Forma | |
1 Yr | | 3 Yrs | | 5 Yrs | | 10 Yrs | | 1 Yr | | 3 Yrs | | 5 Yrs | | 10 Yrs | | 1 Yr | | 3 Yrs | | 5 Yrs | | 10 Yrs | |

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
The Examples reflect applicable expense limitation agreements, and/or waivers in effect, if any, for the one-year period, and the first of the three-, five-, and ten-year periods.
How do the Principal Investment Strategies compare?
As described in more detail in the table that follows, the Portfolios have substantially similar investment strategies. Both Portfolios invest primarily in a portfolio of bonds and seek to maintain an average portfolio quality rating of at least investment grade. Both Portfolios may invest a portion of their assets in high-yield debt instruments (commonly referred to as “junk bonds”), foreign securities, and derivatives.

The Portfolio will provide shareholders with at least 60 days’ prior notice of any change in the investment policy.

Investment-grade bonds are rated at least BBB- by Standard & Poor’s Rating Services or BBaa3 by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc., have an equivalent rating by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization, or, if unrated, are determined by the sub-adviser (“Sub-Adviser”) to be of comparable quality. The Portfolio may also invest in: preferred stocks; high quality money market instruments; municipal bonds; debt instruments of foreign issues (including those located in emerging market countries); securities denominated in foreign currencies; foreign currencies; mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities; bank loans and floating rate secured loans (“Senior Loans”); and derivatives including futures, options and swaps involving securities, securities indices and interest rates, which may be denominated in the U.S. dollar or foreign currencies. Although the Portfolio may invest a portion of its assets in high-yield (high risk) debt instruments, commonly referred to as “junk bonds,” rated below investment grade, the Portfolio will seek to maintain a minimum average portfolio quality rating of at least investment-grade. Generally, the Sub-Adviser maintains a dollar-weighted average duration between three and ten years.

The Portfolio typically uses derivatives to reduce exposure to other risks, such as interest rate or currency risk, to substitute for taking a position in the underlying assets, and/or to enhance returns in the Portfolio. The Portfolio may seek to obtain exposure to the securities in which it invests by entering into a series of purchase and sale contracts or through other investment techniques such as buy backs and dollar rolls. The Portfolio may invest in other investment companies, including exchange-traded funds, to the extent permitted under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, and the rules, regulations and exemptive orders thereunder (the “1940 Act”). The investment process focuses on buy bonds at a discount to their intrinsic value. The Sub-Adviser utilizes proprietary quantitative techniques to identify bonds or sectors that are inexpensive relative to other bonds or sectors that are inexpensive relative to other bonds or sectors based on their historical price relationships.

The Sub-Adviser believes that the relationship between the drivers of debt instrument returns change over time and that recognizing this is key to managing debt instrument assets. Therefore, the Sub-Adviser employs a dynamic investment process that balances top-down macroeconomic considerations and fundamental bottom-up analysis during the steps of its investment process — sector allocation, security selection, duration and yield curve management. This includes leveraging proprietary qualitative analysis along with quantitative tools throughout the portfolio construction process. The Sub-Adviser may sell securities for a variety of reasons, such as to secure gains, limit losses, or redeploy assets into opportunities believed to be more promising, among others. The Portfolio may lend portfolio securities on a short-term or long-term basis, up to 331/3% of its total assets. |
How do the Principal Risks compare?
Because the Portfolios have similar investment objectives, many of the risks of investing in Intermediate Bond Portfolio are the same as the risks of investing in Bond Portfolio. The following summarizes and compares the principal risks of investing in the Portfolios.
Risks | | Bond Portfolio | | Intermediate Bond Portfolio |
Call During periods of falling interest rates, a bond issuer may “call” or repay its high-yielding bond before the bond’s maturity date. If forced to invest the unanticipated proceeds at lower interest rates, the Portfolio would experience a decline in income. | | ü | | ü |
| | | | |
Company The price of a given company’s stock could decline or underperform for many reasons including, among others, poor management, financial problems, or business challenges. If a company declares bankruptcy or becomes insolvent, its stock could become worthless. | | ü | | ü |
5
Risks | | Bond Portfolio | | Intermediate Bond Portfolio |
Credit Prices of bonds and other debt instruments can fall if the issuer’s actual or perceived financial health deteriorates, whether because of broad economic or issuer-specific reasons. In certain cases, the issuer could be late in paying interest or principal, or could fail to pay altogether. | | ü | | ü |
| | | | |
Currency To the extent that the Portfolio invests directly in foreign (non-U.S.) currencies or in securities denominated in, or that trade in, foreign (non-U.S.) currencies, it is subject to the risk that those foreign (non-U.S.) currencies will decline in value relative to the U.S. dollar or, in the case of hedging positions, that the U.S. dollar will decline in value relative to the currency being hedged. | | ü | | ü |
| | | | |
Derivative Instruments Derivative instruments are subject to a number of risks, including the risk of changes in the market price of the underlying securities, credit risk with respect to the counterparty, risk of loss due to changes in interest rates and liquidity risk. The use of certain derivatives may also have a leveraging effect which may increase the volatility of the Portfolio and reduce its returns. Derivatives may not perform as expected, so the Portfolio may not realize the intended benefits. When used for hedging, the change in value of a derivative may not correlate as expected with the currency, security, or other risk being hedged. In addition, given their complexity, derivatives expose the Portfolio to the risk of improper valuation. | | ü | | ü |
| | | | |
Foreign Investments/Developing and Emerging Markets Investing in foreign (non-U.S.) securities may result in the Portfolio experiencing more rapid and extreme changes in value than a fund that invests exclusively in securities of U.S. companies due to: smaller markets; differing reporting, accounting, and auditing standards; nationalization, expropriation, or confiscatory taxation; foreign currency fluctuations, currency blockage, or replacement; potential for default on sovereign debt; or political changes or diplomatic developments. Markets and economies throughout the world are becoming increasingly interconnected, and conditions or events in one market, country or region may adversely impact investments or issuers in another market, country or region. Foreign investment risks may be greater in developing and emerging markets than in developed markets. | | ü | | ü |
| | | | |
High-Yield Securities Investments rated below investment-grade (or of similar quality if unrated) are known as “high-yield securities” or “junk bonds.” High-yielding securities are subject to greater levels of credit and liquidity risks. High-yielding securities are considered primarily speculative with respect to the issuer’s continuing ability to make principal and interest payments. | | ü | | ü |
| | | | |
Interest in Loans The value and income streams of interests in loans (including participation interests in lease financings and assignments in secured variable or floating rate loans) will decline if borrowers delay payments or fail to pay altogether. A large rise in interest rates could increase this risk. Although loans are generally fully collateralized when purchased, the collateral may become illiquid or decline in value. Many loans themselves carry liquidity and valuation risks. | | ü | | ü |
| | | | |
Interest Rate With bonds and other fixed rate debt instruments, a rise in interest rates generally causes values to fall; conversely, values generally rise as interest rates fall. The higher the credit quality of the instrument, and the longer its maturity or duration, the more sensitive it is likely to be to interest rate risk. In the case of inverse securities, the interest rate generally will decrease when the market rate of interest to which the inverse security is indexed decreases. As of the date of this Prospectus/Proxy Statement, interest rates in the United States are at or near historic lows, which may increase the Portfolio’s exposure to risks associated with rising interest rates. | | ü | | ü |
| | | | |
Investment Model The manager’s proprietary model may not adequately allow for existing or unforeseen market factors or the interplay between such factors. | | ü | | ü |
| | | | |
Liquidity If a security is illiquid, the Portfolio might be unable to sell the security at a time when the Portfolio’s manager might wish to sell, and the security could have the effect of decreasing the overall level of the Portfolio’s liquidity. Further, the lack of an established secondary market may make it more difficult to value illiquid securities, which could vary from the amount the Portfolio could realize upon disposition. The Portfolio may make investments that become less liquid in response to market developments or adverse investor perception. The Portfolio could lose money if it cannot sell a security at the time and price that would be most beneficial to the Portfolio. | | ü | | ü |

Risks | | Bond Portfolio | | Intermediate Bond Portfolio |
Market Stock prices may be volatile and are affected by the real or perceived impacts of such factors as economic conditions and political events. Stock markets tend to be cyclical, with periods when stock prices generally rise and periods when stock prices generally decline. Any given stock market segment may remain out of favor with investors for a short or long period of time, and stocks as an asset class may underperform bonds or other asset classes during some periods. Additionally, legislative, regulatory or tax policies or developments in these areas may adversely impact the investment techniques available to a manager, add to Portfolio costs and impair the ability of the Portfolio to achieve its investment objectives. | | ü | | ü |
| | | | |
Mortgage- and/or Asset-Backed Securities Defaults on or the low credit quality or liquidity of the underlying assets of the asset-backed (including mortgage-backed) securities held by the Portfolio may impair the value of the securities. There may be limitations on the enforceability of any security interest granted with respect to those underlying assets. These securities also present a higher degree of prepayment and extension risk and interest rate risk than do other types of fixed-income securities. | | ü | | ü |
| | | | |
Municipal Obligations The municipal market in which the Portfolio invests is volatile and can be significantly affected by adverse tax, legislative, or political changes and the financial condition of the issuers of municipal securities. | | ü | | ü |
| | | | |
Other Investment Companies The main risk of investing in other investment companies, including exchange-traded funds, is the risk that the value of the securities underlying an investment company might decrease. Because the Portfolio may invest in other investment companies, you will pay a proportionate share of the expenses of those other investment companies (including management fees, administration fees, and custodial fees) in addition to the expenses of the Portfolio. | | ü | | ü |
| | | | |
Prepayment and Extension Prepayment risk is the risk that principal on mortgages or other loan obligations underlying a security may be repaid prior to the stated maturity date, which may reduce the market value of the security and the anticipated yield-to-maturity. Extension risk is the risk that an issuer will exercise its right to repay principal on an obligation held by the Portfolio later than expected, which may decrease the value of the obligation and prevent the Portfolio from investing expected repayment proceeds in securities paying yields higher than the yields paid by the securities that were expected to be repaid. | | ü | | ü |
| | | | |
Securities Lending Securities lending involves two primary risks: “investment risk” and “borrower default risk.” Investment risk is the risk that the Portfolio will lose money from the investment of the cash collateral received from the borrower. Borrower default risk is the risk that the Portfolio will lose money due to the failure of a borrower to return a borrowed security in a timely manner. | | ü | | ü |
| | | | |
Sovereign Debt These securities are issued or guaranteed by foreign government entities. Investments in sovereign debt are subject to the risk that a government entity may delay payment, restructure its debt, or refuse to pay interest or repay principal on its sovereign debt. Some of these reasons may include cash flow problems, insufficient foreign currency reserves, political considerations, the relative size of its debt position to its economy or its failure to put in place economic reforms required by the International Monetary Fund or other multilateral agencies. If a government entity defaults, it may ask for more time in which to pay or for further loans. There is no legal process for collecting sovereign debts that a government does not pay or a bankruptcy proceeding by which all or a part of the sovereign debt that a government entity has not repaid may be collected. | | ü | | |
| | | | |
U.S. Government Securities and Obligations U.S. government securities are obligations of, or guaranteed by, the U.S. government, its agencies or government-sponsored enterprises. U.S. government securities are subject to market and interest rate risk, and may be subject to varying degrees of credit risk. | | ü | | ü |

How does Bond Portfolio’s performance compare to that of Intermediate Bond Portfolio?
The following information is intended to help you understand the risks of investing in the Portfolios. The following bar chart shows the changes in Bond Portfolio’s performance and Intermediate Bond Portfolio’s Class S shares’ performance from year to year, and the table compares each Portfolio’s performance to the performance of a broad-based securities market index for the same period. Each Portfolio’s performance information reflects applicable fee waivers and/or expense limitations in effect during the period presented. Absent such fee waivers/expense limitations, if any, performance would have been lower. Performance in the Average Annual Total Returns table does not include insurance-related charges imposed under a Variable Contract or expenses related to a Qualified Plan. If these charges or expenses were included, performance would be lower. Thus, you should not compare the Portfolio’s performance directly with the performance information of other investment products without taking into account all insurance-related charges and expenses payable under your Variable Contract or Qualified Plan. The Portfolios’ past performance is no guarantee of future results.

(1) At the October 2013 Board Meeting, the Board also approved the reorganization of ING PIMCO Total Return Bond Portfolio, a separate series of ING Investors Trust, with and into Intermediate Bond Portfolio. If approved by shareholders of ING PIMCO Total Return Bond Portfolio, this reorganization is also expected to occur in March 2014. This advisory fee is contingent upon shareholder approval of the reorganization of either Bond Portfolio or ING PIMCO Total Return Bond Portfolio into Intermediate Bond Portfolio.
Advisers to the Portfolios
ING Investments, an Arizona limited liability company, serves as the investment adviser to the Portfolios. ING Investments has overall responsibility for the management of the Portfolios. ING Investments oversees all investment advisory and portfolio management services for the Portfolios. ING Investments is registered with the SEC as an investment adviser.
The Adviser is an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of ING U.S., Inc. (“ING U.S.”). ING U.S. is a U.S.-based financial institution whose subsidiaries operate in the retirement, investment, and insurance industries. As of the date of this Prospectus, ING U.S. is a majority-owned subsidiary of ING Groep N.V. (“ING Groep”). ING Groep is a global financial institution of Dutch origin, with operations in more than 40 countries.
In October 2009, ING Groep submitted a restructuring plan (the “Restructuring Plan”) to the European Commission in order to receive approval for state aid granted to ING Groep by the Kingdom of the Netherlands in November 2008 and March 2009. To receive approval for this state aid, ING Groep was required to divest its insurance and investment management businesses, including ING U.S., before the end of 2013. In November 2012, the Restructuring Plan was amended to permit ING Groep additional time to complete the divestment. Pursuant to the amended Restructuring Plan, ING Groep must divest at least 25% of ING U.S. by the end of 2013, more than 50% by the end of 2014, and the remaining interest by the end of 2016 (such divestment, the “Separation Plan”).
In May 2013, ING U.S. conducted an initial public offering of ING U.S. common stock (the “IPO”). On September 13, 2013, ING U.S. filed a new Registration Statement on Form S-1 with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) in connection with another potential public offering of ING U.S. common stock held by ING Groep. ING U.S. will did not issue or sell common stock in the offering. On October 23, 2013, ING U.S. announced the pricing of 33 million shares of its common stock being offered by ING Groep in this offering. Closing of the offering occurred on October 29, 2013. ING Groep also granted the underwriters in the offering an option exercisable within 30 days, to acquire up to approximately an additional 5 million shares from ING Groep. This option was exercised in full. ING U.S. did not receive any proceeds from the offering.
ING Groep continues to own a majority of the common stock of ING U.S. ING Groep has stated that it intends to sell its remaining controlling ownership interest in ING U.S. over time. While the base case for the remainder of the Separation Plan is the
9
divestment of ING Groep’s remaining interest in one or more broadly distributed offerings, all options remain open and it is possible that ING Groep’s divestment of its remaining interest in ING U.S. may take place by means of a sale to a single buyer or group of buyers.
It is anticipated that one or more of the transactions contemplated by the Separation Plan would result in the automatic termination of the existing advisory and sub-advisory agreements under which the Adviser and sub-adviser provide services to each Portfolio. In order to ensure that the existing investment advisory and sub-advisory services can continue uninterrupted, the Board approved new advisory and sub-advisory agreements for the Portfolios in connection with the IPO. Shareholders of the Portfolios approved new investment advisory and sub-advisory agreements prompted by the IPO, as well as any future advisory and sub-advisory agreements prompted by the Separation that are approved by the Board and whose terms are not materially different from the current agreements. This means that shareholders may not have another opportunity to vote on a new agreement with the Adviser or an affiliated sub-adviser even if they undergo a change of control, as long as no single person or group of persons acting together gains “control” (as defined in the 1940 Act) of ING U.S.
The Separation Plan, whether implemented through public offerings or other means, may be disruptive to the businesses of ING U.S. and its subsidiaries, including the Adviser and affiliated entities that provide services to the Portfolios, and may cause, among other things, interruption of business operations or services, diversion of management’s attention from day-to-day operations, reduced access to capital, and loss of key employees or customers. The completion of the Separation Plan is expected to result in the Adviser’s loss of access to the resources of ING Groep, which could adversely affect its business. It is anticipated that ING U.S., as a stand-alone entity, may be a publicly held U.S. company subject to the reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as well as other U.S. government and state regulations, and subject to the risk of changing regulation.
During the time that ING Groep retains a majority interest in ING U.S., circumstances affecting ING Groep, including restrictions or requirements imposed on ING Groep by European and other authorities, may also affect ING U.S. A failure to complete the Separation Plan could create uncertainty about the nature of the relationship between ING U.S. and ING Groep, and could adversely affect ING U.S. and the Adviser and its affiliates. Currently, the Adviser and its affiliates do not anticipate that the Separation Plan will have a material adverse impact on their operations or the Portfolios and their operations.
ING Investments’ principal office is located at 7337 East Doubletree Ranch Road, Suite 100, Scottsdale, Arizona 85258-2034. As of December 31, 2012, ING Investments managed approximately $46.2 billion in assets.

What are the key differences in the rights of shareholders of Bond Portfolio and Intermediate Bond Portfolio?
Bond Portfolio is a separate series of ING Investors Trust, an open-end management investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust. Intermediate Bond Portfolio is an open-end management investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust. Both Portfolios are governed by a board of trustees consisting of the same 12 members. For more information on the history of ING Investors Trust or Intermediate Bond Portfolio, see each Portfolio’s SAI dated April 30, 2013.
Each Portfolio is organized as a Massachusetts business trust or series thereof, which is governed by a Declaration of Trust and Bylaws. Under Massachusetts law, shareholders of a Massachusetts business trust, under certain circumstances, could be held personally liable for the obligations of the business trust. However, both Bond Portfolio and Intermediate Bond Portfolio operate under a Declaration of Trust that disclaims shareholder liability for acts or obligations of the Portfolio. As such, shareholders have no personal liability for the Portfolio’s acts or obligations.
The key differences are described in the table below.
| | Bond Portfolio | | Intermediate Bond Portfolio |
Quorum | | Except as otherwise provided by law, the holders of thirty percent of the outstanding Shares of each Series or Class present in person or by proxy shall constitute a quorum for the transactions of any business at any meeting of Shareholders. | | At Any Shareholder meeting, unless otherwise provided by law, this Declaration, or the by-laws, the presence in person or by proxy of a majority of the votes entitled to be cast constitutes a quorum. |
| | | | |
Termination | | The Trust, or any Series or Class thereof, may be terminated by the affirmative vote of a majority of the Trustees. | | The Trust or any Series thereof may be terminated by (i) the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the Shares entitled to vote at any meeting of Shareholders or (ii) by an instrument in writing signed by a majority of the Trustees. |
Additional Information about the Portfolios
Dividends and Other Distributions
Each Portfolio declares and pays dividends from net investment income at least annually. Each Portfolio will also pay distributions from net realized capital gains, reduced by available capital losses, at least annually. All dividend and capital gains distributions will be automatically reinvested in additional shares of the Portfolios at the net asset value (“NAV”) of such shares on the payment date unless a participating insurance company’s Separate Account is permitted to hold cash and elects to receive payment in cash. From time to time, a portion of a Portfolio’s distributions may constitute a return of capital.
To comply with federal tax regulations, the Portfolios may also pay an additional capital gains distribution.
Capitalization
The following table shows on an unaudited basis the capitalization of each of the Portfolios as of June 30, 2013 and on a pro forma basis as of June 30, 2013, giving effect to the reorganization.

Additional Information about the Reorganization
The Reorganization Agreement
The terms and conditions under which the proposed transaction may be consummated are set forth in the Reorganization Agreement. Significant provisions of the Reorganization Agreement are summarized below; however, this summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Reorganization Agreement, a copy of which is attached to this Proxy Statement/Prospectus as Appendix A.
11
The Reorganization Agreement provides for: (i) the transfer, as of the Closing Date, of all of the assets of Bond Portfolio in exchange for shares of beneficial interest of Intermediate Bond Portfolio and the assumption by Intermediate Bond Portfolio of all of Bond Portfolio’s liabilities; and (ii) the distribution of shares of Intermediate Bond Portfolio to shareholders of Bond Portfolio, as provided for in the Reorganization Agreement. Bond Portfolio will then be liquidated.
Each shareholder of shares of Bond Portfolio will hold, immediately after the Closing Date, Class S shares of Intermediate Bond Portfolio having an aggregate value equal to the aggregate value of the shares of Bond Portfolio held by that shareholder as of the close of business on the Closing Date. In the interest of economy and convenience, shares of Intermediate Bond Portfolio generally will not be represented by physical certificates, unless you request the certificates in writing.
The obligations of the Portfolios under the Reorganization Agreement are subject to various conditions, including approval of the shareholders of Bond Portfolio and that each Portfolio receives an opinion from the law firm of Dechert LLP to the effect that the Reorganization will qualify as a tax-free reorganization for federal income tax purposes. The Reorganization Agreement also requires that each of the Portfolios take, or cause to be taken, all actions, and do or cause to be done, all things reasonably necessary, proper or advisable to consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated by the Reorganization Agreement. The Reorganization Agreement may be terminated by mutual agreement of the parties or on certain other grounds. Please refer to Appendix A to review the terms and conditions of the Reorganization Agreement.
Expenses of the Reorganization
The expenses of the Reorganization will be borne by the Adviser (or an affiliate). The expenses of the Reorganization shall include, but not be limited to, the costs associated with the preparation of necessary filings with the SEC, printing and distribution the Proxy Statement/Prospectus and proxy materials, legal fees, accounting fees, securities registration fees, and expenses of holding the Special Meeting. The expenses of the Reorganization do not include the transition costs described in “Portfolio Transitioning” below.
Tax Considerations
The Reorganization is intended to qualify for federal income tax purposes as a tax-free reorganization under Section 368 of the Code. Accordingly, pursuant to this treatment, neither Bond Portfolio nor its shareholders, nor Intermediate Bond Portfolio nor its shareholders, are expected to recognize any gain or loss for federal income tax purposes from the transactions contemplated by the Reorganization Agreement. As a condition to the Closing of the Reorganization, the Portfolios will receive an opinion from the law firm of Dechert LLP to the effect that the Reorganization will qualify as a tax-free reorganization for federal income tax purposes. That opinion will be based in part upon certain assumptions and upon certain representations made by the Portfolios.
Prior to the Closing Date, Bond Portfolio will pay to the Separate Accounts of Participating Insurance Companies and Qualified Plans that own its shares, a cash distribution consisting of any undistributed investment company taxable income and/or any undistributed realized net capital gains, including any net gains realized from any sales of assets prior to the Closing Date. Variable Contract owners and Plan Participants are not expected to recognize any income or gains for federal income tax purposes from this cash distribution.
As of June 30, 2013, Bond Portfolio has estimated capital loss carryforwards of $4,738,775; none of which will expire as a result of the Reorganization. Intermediate Bond Portfolio has estimated capital loss carryforwards of $217,644,730, although a portion of the amount of these losses that may offset Intermediate Bond Portfolio’s capital gains in any given year is expected to be limited as a result of other reorganizations entered into by Intermediate Bond Portfolio. Variable Contract Owners and Plan Participants are not expected to be affected by any limitations on the utilization of capital losses by the Portfolios. After the Reorganization, the losses of Bond Portfolio generally may be available to Intermediate Bond Portfolio, to offset its capital gains, although a portion of the amount of these losses that may offset Intermediate Bond Portfolio’s capital gains in any given year may be limited due to this Reorganization. The ability of Intermediate Bond Portfolio to absorb losses in the future depends on a variety of factors that cannot be known in advance, including the existence of capital gains against which these losses may be offset. In addition, the benefits of any of these various capital loss carryforwards and built-in losses currently are available only to pre-Reorganization shareholders of each Portfolio. After Reorganization, however, these benefits will inure to the benefit of all post-Reorganization shareholders of Intermediate Bond Portfolio.
Portfolio Transitioning
As discussed above, the Portfolios have substantially similar investment strategies. As a result, ING IM is not expected to sell a significant portion of Bond Portfolio’s holdings prior to the Closing Date to prepare for the Reorganization. If in connection with the Reorganization any of Bond Portfolio’s holdings are sold prior to the Closing Date, the proceeds of such sales are expected to be invested in securities that ING IM wishes for Intermediate Bond Portfolio to hold and temporary investments, which will be delivered to Intermediate Bond Portfolio at the Closing Date. During the transition period, Bond Portfolio may not be pursuing its investment objective and strategies, and limitations on permissible investments and investment restrictions will not apply. After the Closing Date of the Reorganization, ING IM, as the sub-adviser to Intermediate Bond Portfolio, may also sell portfolio holdings that it acquired from Bond Portfolio, and Intermediate Bond Portfolio may not be immediately fully invested in accordance with its stated investment strategies. In addition, each Portfolio may engage in a variety of transition management techniques to facilitate the portfolio transition process, including without limitation, the purchase and sale of baskets of securities and exchange-traded funds, and enter into and close futures contracts or other derivative transactions. Such sales and purchases by the Portfolios during the transition period may be made at a disadvantageous time and could result in potential losses for the Portfolios. No transition costs are expected to be incurred in connection with the Reorganization; however, the Adviser will be responsible for paying any transition costs that are incurred.

Future Allocation of Premiums
Shares of Bond Portfolio have been purchased at the direction of Variable Contract owners by Participating Insurance Companies through Separate Accounts to fund benefits payable under a Variable Contract. If the Reorganization is approved, Participating Insurance Companies have advised us that all premiums or transfers to Bond Portfolio will be allocated to Intermediate Bond Portfolio.
What is the Board’s recommendation?
Based upon its review, the Board, including a majority of the Trustees who are not “interested persons,” as defined by the 1940 Act (the “Independent Trustees”), determined that the interests of the shareholders of the Portfolios would not be diluted as a result of the Reorganization and that the Reorganization would be in the best interests of the Portfolios and their shareholders. Accordingly, after consideration of such factors and information it considered relevant, the Board, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, approved the Reorganization Agreement and voted to recommend to shareholders that they approve the Reorganization Agreement. The Board is therefore recommending that Total Return Bond’s shareholders vote “FOR” the Reorganization Agreement.
What factors did the Board consider?
The Board considered the Reorganization as part of its overall consideration of what would be in the best interest of Bond Portfolio and its shareholders. The Board determined that Bond Portfolio would benefit from being combined into Intermediate Bond Portfolio under the day-to-day management of ING IM.
The Board, in approving the Reorganization, considered a number of factors, including, but not limited to, the following: (1) the similarities and differences in the investment objectives and investment strategies of each Portfolio; (2) an analysis of ING IM as the sub-adviser of each Portfolio; (3) a presentation from ING Investments regarding proposals, including the Reorganization, intending to, among other things, enhance the efficiency and reduce the complexity of the ING Funds Complex; (4) the similarity in fee structures of each of the Portfolios; (5) the superior performance of Intermediate Bond Portfolio as compared to the performance of Bond Portfolio for the year-to-date, one-year, three-year and five-year time periods; (6) the performance of Bond Portfolio as compared to its Morningstar, Inc. (“Morningstar”) peer group and the performance of Intermediate Bond Portfolio as compared to its Morningstar peer group; (7) the lower gross and net expense ratio that current shareholders of Bond Portfolio are expected to experience as a result of the Reorganization; (8) consideration that Bond Portfolio has no designated share classes and Intermediate Bond Portfolio has classes ADV, I, S and S2 and ING Investments’ analysis and proposal regarding merging Bond Portfolio into Class S of Intermediate Bond Portfolio; (9) proposed advisory fee break points for Intermediate Bond Portfolio to be implemented in connection with the Reorganization to provide further benefits to the shareholders of the Portfolios; (10) proposed expense limits for Intermediate Bond Portfolio to be implemented in connection with the Reorganization which will provide the Portfolios’ shareholders with the added benefit of protection against rising expense ratios should Intermediate Bond Portfolio’s net assets ever decrease, subject to Board approval, these expense limits will expire on May 1, 2015; (11) the larger combined asset size of the two Portfolios, which would be likely to provide greater scale and superior potential to maintain long-term scale benefits for the shareholders of both Portfolios; (12) the fact that direct or indirect costs relating to the Reorganization will not be borne by either Portfolio or their shareholders; (13) the expected tax consequences of the Reorganization to Bond Portfolio and its shareholders, including that the Reorganization is intended to qualify for federal income tax purposes as a tax-free reorganization; and (14) the Board’s determination that the Reorganization will not dilute the interests of the shareholders of Bond Portfolio.
In addition, the Board considered the net revenue benefits for ING Investments and its affiliates that would result from the Reorganization.
What is the required vote?
Approval of the Reorganization Agreement requires the affirmative vote of the lesser of: (i) 67% or more of the voting securities present at the meeting, provided that more than 50% of the voting securities are present in person or represented by proxy at the Special Meeting; or (ii) a majority of the shares entitled to vote.
What happens if shareholders do not approve the Reorganization?
If shareholders of Bond Portfolio do not approve the Reorganization, Bond Portfolio will continue to be managed by ING Investments as described in its prospectus, and the Board will determine what additional action should be taken.

GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT THE PROXY STATEMENT/PROSPECTUS
Who is asking for my vote?
The Board is soliciting your vote for a special meeting of Bond Portfolio’s shareholders.
How is my proxy being solicited?
Solicitation of proxies or voting instructions is being made primarily by the mailing of the Notice of Special Meeting, this Proxy Statement/Prospectus, and the Proxy Ballot or Voting Instruction Card on or about January 24, 2014. In addition to the solicitation of proxies by mail, employees of the Adviser and its affiliates, without additional compensation, may solicit proxies in person or by telephone, telegraph, facsimile, or oral communications.
What happens to my proxy once I submit it?
The Board has named Huey P. Falgout, Jr., Secretary, Theresa K. Kelety, Assistant Secretary, and Todd Modic, Assistant Secretary, or one or more substitutes designated by them, as proxies who are authorized to vote Portfolio shares as directed by shareholders.
Can I revoke my proxy after I submit it?
A shareholder may revoke the accompanying proxy at any time prior to its use by filing with ING Investors Trust a written revocation or a duly executed proxy bearing a later date. In addition, any shareholder who attends the Special Meeting in person may vote by ballot at the Special Meeting, thereby canceling any proxy or voting instruction previously given.
How will my shares be voted?
If you follow the voting instructions, your proxies will vote your shares as you have directed. If you submitted your Proxy Ballot or Voting Instruction Card but did not vote on the proposals, your proxies will vote on the proposals as recommended by the Board. If any other matter is properly presented, your proxies will vote in their discretion in accordance with their best judgment, including on any proposal to adjourn the meeting. At the time this Proxy Statement/Prospectus was printed, the Board knew of no matter that needed to be acted upon at the Special Meeting other than the proposals discussed in this Proxy Statement/Prospectus.
Quorum and Tabulation
Each shareholder of Bond Portfolio is entitled to one vote for each share held as to any matter on which such shareholder is entitled to vote and for each fractional share that is owned, the shareholder shall be entitled to a proportionate fractional vote. Thirty percent (30%) of the outstanding shares present in person or by proxy shall constitute a quorum at any meeting of shareholders.
Adjournments
If a quorum is not present at the Special Meeting, if there are insufficient votes to approve any proposal, or for any other reason deemed appropriate by your proxies, your proxies may propose one or more adjournments of the Special Meeting to permit additional time for the solicitation of proxies, in accordance with applicable law. Solicitation of votes may continue to be made without any obligation to provide any additional notice of the adjournment. The persons named as proxies will vote in favor of such adjournments in their discretion.
Abstentions and Broker Non-Votes
If a shareholder abstains from voting as to any matter, or if a broker returns a “non-vote” proxy, indicating a lack of authority to vote on a matter, then the shares represented by such abstention or non-vote will be treated as shares that are present at the Special Meeting for purposes of determining the existence of a quorum. However, abstentions and broker non-votes will be disregarded in determining the “votes cast” on an issue.
Additional Voting Information
The Separate Accounts and Qualified Plans are the record owners of the shares of the Portfolios. The Qualified Plans and Separate Accounts will vote Bond Portfolio’s shares at the Special Meeting in accordance with the timely instructions received from persons entitled to give voting instructions under the Variable Contracts or Qualified Plans. Bond Portfolio does not impose any requirement that a minimum percentage of voting instructions be received, before counting the Separate Accounts and Qualified Plans as the Bond Portfolio’s shareholders in determining whether a quorum is present.
Where Variable Contract Holders and Plan Participants fail to give instructions as to how to vote their shares, the Qualified Plans and Separate Accounts will use proportional voting and vote those shares in proportion to the instructions given by other Variable Contract Holders and Plan Participants who voted. The effect of proportional voting is that if a large number of Variable Contract Holders and Plan Participants fail to give voting instructions, a small number of Variable Contract Holders and Plan Participants may determine the outcome of the vote. Because a significant percentage of Bond Portfolio’s shares are held by Separate Accounts, which use proportional voting, the presence of such Separate Accounts at the Special Meeting shall be sufficient to constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at the Special Meeting.
14
How many shares are outstanding?
As of the Record Date, the following shares of beneficial interest of Bond Portfolio were outstanding and entitled to vote: []. Shares have no preemptive or subscription rights.
[Confirm] [To the knowledge of the Adviser, as of the Record Date, no current Trustee owns 1% or more of any class of the outstanding shares of the Portfolio, and the officers and Trustees own, as a group, less than 1% of any class of the shares of the Portfolio.]
Appendix C hereto lists the persons that, as of the Record Date owned beneficially or of record 5% or more of any class of the outstanding shares of any class of Bond Portfolio or Intermediate Bond Portfolio.
Can shareholders submit proposals for a future shareholder meeting?
The Portfolio is not required to hold annual meetings and currently does not intend to hold such meetings unless shareholder action is required in accordance with the 1940 Act. A shareholder proposal to be considered for inclusion in a proxy statement at any subsequent meeting of shareholders must be submitted in a reasonable time before a proxy statement for that meeting is printed and mailed. Whether a proposal is submitted in a proxy statement will be determined in accordance with applicable federal and state laws.
Why did my household only receive one copy of this Proxy Statement/Prospectus?
Only one copy of this Proxy Statement/Prospectus may be mailed to each household, even if more than one person in the household is a Portfolio shareholder of record, unless the Portfolio has received contrary instructions from one or more of the household’s shareholders. If a shareholder needs an additional copy of this Proxy Statement, please contact Shareholder Services at (800) 992-0180. If in the future, any shareholder does not wish to combine or wishes to recombine the mailing of a proxy statement with household members, please inform the Portfolio in writing at 7337 East Doubletree Ranch Road, Suite 100, Scottsdale, Arizona, 85258-2034 or via telephone at (800) 992-0180.

APPENDIX A: FORM OF AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF REORGANIZATION
THIS AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF REORGANIZATION (the “Agreement”) is made as of this 12th day of September, 2013, by ING Intermediate Bond Portfolio (“IIBP”), a Massachusetts business trust with its principal place of business at 7337 East Doubletree Ranch Road, Suite 100, Scottsdale, Arizona 85258-2034, on behalf of its series, ING Intermediate Bond Portfolio (the “Acquiring Portfolio”), and ING Investors Trust (“IIT”), a Massachusetts business trust with its principal place of business at 7337 East Doubletree Ranch Road, Suite 100, Scottsdale, Arizona 85258-2034, on behalf of its series, ING Bond Portfolio (the “Acquired Portfolio”).
This Agreement is intended to be and is adopted as a plan of reorganization and liquidation within the meaning of Section 368(a)(1) of the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). The reorganization (the “Reorganization”) will consist of the transfer of all of the assets of the Acquired Portfolio to the Acquiring Portfolio in exchange solely for Class S voting shares of beneficial interest of the Acquiring Portfolio (the “Acquiring Portfolio Shares”), the assumption by the Acquiring Portfolio of the liabilities of the Acquired Portfolio described in paragraph 1.3, and the distribution of the Acquiring Portfolio Shares to the shareholders of the Acquired Portfolio in complete liquidation of the Acquired Portfolio as provided herein, all upon the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth in this Agreement.
WHEREAS, the Acquired Portfolio and the Acquiring Portfolio are series of open-end, registered investment companies of the management type and the Acquired Portfolio owns securities which generally are assets of the character in which the Acquiring Portfolio is permitted to invest; and
WHEREAS, the Board of Trustees of IIBP has determined that the exchange of all of the assets of the Acquired Portfolio for Acquiring Portfolio Shares and the assumption of the liabilities of the Acquired Portfolio, as described in paragraph 1.3 herein, by the Acquiring Portfolio are in the best interests of the Acquiring Portfolio and its shareholders and that the interests of the existing shareholders of the Acquiring Portfolio would not be diluted as a result of this transaction; and
WHEREAS, the Board of Trustees of IIT has determined that the exchange of all of the assets of the Acquired Portfolio for Acquiring Portfolio Shares and the assumption of the liabilities of the Acquired Portfolio by the Acquiring Portfolio, as described in paragraph 1.3 herein, is in the best interests of the Acquired Portfolio and its shareholders and that the interests of the existing shareholders of the Acquired Portfolio would not be diluted as a result of this transaction.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and of the covenants and agreements hereinafter set forth, the parties hereto covenant and agree as follows:
1. TRANSFER OF ASSETS OF THE ACQUIRED PORTFOLIO TO THE ACQUIRING PORTFOLIO IN EXCHANGE FOR THE ACQUIRING PORTFOLIO SHARES, THE ASSUMPTION OF ALL ACQUIRED PORTFOLIO LIABILITIES AND THE LIQUIDATION OF THE ACQUIRED PORTFOLIO
1.1. Subject to the requisite approval of the Acquired Portfolio shareholders and the other terms and conditions herein set forth and on the basis of the representations and warranties contained herein, the Acquired Portfolio agrees to transfer all of the Acquired Portfolio’s assets, as set forth in paragraph 1.2, to the Acquiring Portfolio, and the Acquiring Portfolio agrees in exchange therefor: (i) to deliver to the Acquired Portfolio the number of full and fractional Class S Acquiring Portfolio Shares determined by dividing the value of the Acquired Portfolio’s net assets with respect to each class, computed in the manner and as of the time and date set forth in paragraph 2.1, by the net asset value of one Acquiring Portfolio Share of the same class, computed in the manner and as of the time and date set forth in paragraph 2.2; and (ii) to assume the liabilities of the Acquired Portfolio, as set forth in paragraph 1.3. Such transactions shall take place at the closing provided for in paragraph 3.1 (the “Closing”).
1.2. The assets of the Acquired Portfolio to be acquired by the Acquiring Portfolio shall consist of all assets and property, including, without limitation, all cash, securities, commodities and futures interests and dividends or interests receivable that are owned by the Acquired Portfolio and any deferred or prepaid expenses shown as an asset on the books of the Acquired Portfolio on the closing date provided for in paragraph 3.1 (the “Closing Date”) (collectively, “Assets”).
1.3. The Acquired Portfolio will endeavor to discharge all of its liabilities and obligations prior to the Closing Date. The Acquiring Portfolio shall assume all of the liabilities of the Acquired Portfolio, whether accrued or contingent, known or unknown, existing at the Valuation Date, as defined in paragraph 2.1. On or as soon as practicable prior to the Closing Date, the Acquired Portfolio will declare and pay to its shareholders of record one or more dividends and/or other distributions so that it will have distributed substantially all (and in no event less than 98%) of its investment company taxable income (computed without regard to any deduction for dividends paid) and realized net capital gain, if any, for the current taxable year through the Closing Date.
1.4. Immediately after the transfer of assets provided for in paragraph 1.1, the Acquired Portfolio will: (i) distribute to the Acquired Portfolio’s shareholders of record with respect to its Class S shares, determined as of immediately after the close of business on the Closing Date, on a pro rata basis within each class, the Acquiring Portfolio Shares of the same class received by the Acquired Portfolio pursuant to paragraph 1.1; and (ii) completely liquidate. Such distribution and liquidation will be accomplished by the transfer of the Acquiring Portfolio Shares then credited to the account of the Acquired Portfolio on the books of the Acquiring Portfolio to open accounts on the share records of the Acquiring Portfolio in the names of the shareholders of record of the Acquired Portfolio’s shares, determined as of immediately after the close of business on the Closing Date (the “Acquired Portfolio Shareholders”). The aggregate net asset value of Class S Acquiring Portfolio Shares to be so credited to shareholders of Class S shares of the Acquired Portfolio shall, with respect to each class, be equal to the aggregate net asset value of the Acquired Portfolio shares of that same class owned by such shareholders on the Closing Date. All issued and outstanding
16
Class S Acquired Portfolio shares will simultaneously be canceled on the books of the Acquired Portfolio, although share certificates representing interests in Class S shares of the Acquired Portfolio will represent a number of the same class of Acquiring Portfolio Shares after the Closing Date, as determined in accordance with Section 2.3. The Acquiring Portfolio shall not issue certificates representing the Class S Acquiring Portfolio Shares in connection with such exchange.
1.5. Ownership of Acquiring Portfolio Shares will be shown on the books of the Acquiring Portfolio’s transfer agent, as defined in paragraph 3.3.
1.6. Any reporting responsibility of the Acquired Portfolio including, but not limited to, the responsibility for filing of regulatory reports, tax returns, or other documents with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”), any state securities commission, and any federal, state or local tax authorities or any other relevant regulatory authority, is and shall remain the responsibility of the Acquired Portfolio.
2. VALUATION
2.1. The value of the Assets shall be the value computed as of immediately after the close of business of the New York Stock Exchange and after the declaration of any dividends on the Closing Date (such time and date being hereinafter called the “Valuation Date”), using the valuation procedures in the then-current prospectus and statement of additional information with respect to the Acquiring Portfolio, and valuation procedures established by the Board of Trustees of IIT.
2.2. The net asset value of a Class S Acquiring Portfolio Share shall be the net asset value per share computed with respect to that class as of the Valuation Date, using the valuation procedures set forth in the Acquiring Portfolio’s then-current prospectus and statement of additional and valuation procedures established by the Board of Trustees of IIT.
2.3. The number of the Class S Acquiring Portfolio Shares to be issued (including fractional shares, if any) in exchange for the Acquired Portfolio’s assets shall be determined with respect to each such class by dividing the value of the net assets with respect to the Class S shares of the Acquired Portfolio, as the case may be, determined using the same valuation procedures referred to in paragraph 2.1, by the net asset value of an Acquiring Portfolio Share of the same Class determined in accordance with paragraph 2.2.
2.4. All computations of value shall be made by the Acquired Portfolio’s designated record keeping agent and shall be subject to review by Acquiring Portfolio’s record keeping agent and by each Fund’s respective independent registered public accounting firm.
3. CLOSING AND CLOSING DATE
3.1. The Closing Date shall be March 14, 2014 or such other date as the parties may agree. All acts taking place at the Closing shall be deemed to take place simultaneously as of immediately after the close of business on the Closing Date unless otherwise agreed to by the parties. The close of business on the Closing Date shall be as of 4:00 p.m., Eastern Time. The Closing shall be held at the offices of the Acquiring Portfolio or at such other time and/or place as the parties may agree.
3.2. The Acquired Portfolio shall direct the Bank of New York Mellon, as custodian for the Acquired Portfolio (the “Custodian”), to deliver, at the Closing, a certificate of an authorized officer stating that (i) the Assets shall have been delivered in proper form to the Acquiring Portfolio within two business days prior to or on the Closing Date; and (ii) all necessary taxes in connection with the delivery of the Assets, including all applicable federal and state stock transfer stamps, if any, have been paid or provision for payment has been made. The Acquired Portfolio’s portfolio securities represented by a certificate or other written instrument shall be presented for examination by the Custodian to the custodian for the Acquiring Portfolio no later than five business days preceding the Closing Date, and shall be transferred and delivered by the Acquired Portfolio as of the Closing Date for the account of the Acquiring Portfolio duly endorsed in proper form for transfer in such condition as to constitute good delivery thereof. The Custodian shall deliver as of the Closing Date by book entry, in accordance with the customary practices of the Custodian and any securities depository (as defined in Rule 17f-4 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”)) in which the Acquired Portfolio’s Assets are deposited, the Acquired Portfolio’s portfolio securities and instruments deposited with such depositories. The cash to be transferred by the Acquired Portfolio shall be delivered by wire transfer of federal funds on the Closing Date.
3.3. The Acquired Portfolio shall direct BNY Mellon Investment Servicing (U.S.) Inc. (the “Transfer Agent”), on behalf of the Acquired Portfolio, to deliver at the Closing a certificate of an authorized officer stating that its records contain the names and addresses of the Acquired Portfolio Shareholders and the number and percentage ownership of outstanding Class S shares owned by each such shareholder immediately prior to the Closing. The Acquiring Portfolio shall issue and deliver a confirmation evidencing the Acquiring Portfolio Shares to be credited on the Closing Date to the Secretary of the Acquiring Portfolio, or provide evidence satisfactory to the Acquired Portfolio that such Acquiring Portfolio Shares have been credited to the Acquired Portfolio’s account on the books of the Acquiring Portfolio. At the Closing, each party shall deliver to the other such bills of sale, checks, assignments, share certificates, if any, receipts or other documents as such other party or its counsel may reasonably request.
3.4. In the event that on the Valuation Date (a) the New York Stock Exchange or another primary trading market for portfolio securities of the Acquiring Portfolio or the Acquired Portfolio shall be closed to trading or trading thereupon shall be restricted, or (b) trading or the reporting of trading on such Exchange or elsewhere shall be disrupted so that, in the judgment of the Board of Trustees of IIT, accurate appraisal of the value of the net assets of the Acquiring Portfolio or the Acquired Portfolio is impracticable, the Closing Date shall be postponed until the first business day after the day when trading shall have been fully resumed and reporting shall have been restored.

APPENDIX B: ADDITIONAL INFORMATION REGARDING ING INTERMEDIATE BOND PORTFOLIO
Portfolio Holdings Information
A description of the policies and procedures of ING Intermediate Bond Portfolio (the “Portfolio”) regarding the release of portfolio holdings information is available in the Portfolio’s SAI. Portfolio holdings information can be reviewed online at www.INGInvestment.com.
How Shares Are Priced
The net asset value (“NAV”) per share for each class of the Portfolio is determined each business day as of the close of regular trading (“Market Close”) on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) (normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time unless otherwise designated by the NYSE). The Portfolio is open for business every day the NYSE is open. The NYSE is closed on all weekends and on all national holidays and Good Friday. Portfolio shares will not be priced on those days. The NAV per share of each class of the Portfolio is calculated by taking the value of the Portfolio’s assets attributable to that class, subtracting the Portfolio’s liabilities attributable to that class, and dividing by the number of shares of that class that are outstanding. To the extent the Portfolio invests in other open-end funds (other than exchange-traded funds “ETFs”), the Portfolio will calculate its NAV using the NAV of the funds in which it invests as described in that fund’s prospectus.
In general, assets are valued based on actual or estimated market value, with special provisions for assets not having readily available market quotations and short-term debt securities, and for situations where market quotations are deemed unreliable. Investments in securities maturing in 60 days or less are valued at amortized cost which, when combined with accrued interest, approximates market value. Securities prices may be obtained from automated pricing services. Shares of investment companies held by the Portfolio (other than ETF shares) will generally be valued at the latest NAV reported by that investment company. The prospectuses for those investment companies explain the circumstances under which they will use fair value pricing and the effects of using fair value pricing.
Trading of foreign securities may not take place every day the NYSE is open. Also, trading in some foreign markets and on some electronic trading networks may occur on weekends or holidays when the Portfolio’s NAV is not calculated. As a result, the NAV of the Portfolio may change on days when shareholders will not be able to purchase or redeem the Portfolio’s shares. When market quotations are not available or are deemed unreliable, the Portfolio will use a fair value for an asset that is determined in accordance with procedures adopted by the Portfolio’s Board. The types of assets for which such fair value pricing might be required include, but are not limited to:
· Foreign securities, where a foreign security whose value at the close of the foreign market on which it principally trades likely would have changed by the time of the close of the NYSE, or the closing value is otherwise deemed unreliable;
· Securities of an issuer that has entered into a restructuring;
· Securities whose trading has been halted or suspended;
· Fixed-income securities that have gone into default and for which there are no current market value quotations; and
· Securities that are restricted as to transfer or resale.
The Portfolio or the Adviser may rely on the recommendations of a fair value pricing service approved by the Portfolio’s Board in valuing foreign securities. Valuing securities at fair value involves greater reliance on judgment than valuing securities that have readily available market quotations. The Adviser will make such determinations in good faith in accordance with procedures adopted by the Portfolio’s Board. Fair value determinations can also involve reliance on quantitative models employed by a fair value pricing service. There can be no assurance that the Portfolio could obtain the fair value assigned to a security if it were to sell the security at approximately the time at which the Portfolio determines its NAV per share.
When your Variable Contract or Qualified Plan is buying shares of the Portfolio, it will pay the NAV that is next calculated after the order from the Variable Contract Holder or Qualified Plan Participant is received in proper form. When the Variable Contract Holder or Qualified Plan Participant is selling shares, it will normally receive the NAV that is next calculated after the order form is received from the Variable Contract Holder or Qualified Plan participant in proper form. Investments will be processed at the NAV next calculated after an order is received and accepted by the Portfolio or its designated agent. In order to receive that day’s price, your order must be received by Market Close.
How to Buy and Sell Shares
The Portfolio’s shares may be offered to insurance company separate accounts serving as investment options under Variable Contracts, Qualified Plans outside the separate account context, custodial accounts, certain investment advisers and their affiliates in connection with the creation or management of the Portfolios, other investment companies and other investors as permitted by the diversification and other requirements of section 817(h) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) and the underlying U.S. Treasury Regulations. The Portfolio may not be available as investment options in your Variable Contract, through your Qualified Plan or other investment company. Please refer to the prospectus for the appropriate insurance company separate account, investment company or your plan documents for information on how to direct investments in, or redemptions from, an investment option corresponding to one of the Portfolio and any fees that may apply. Participating insurance companies and certain other designated organizations are authorized to receive purchase orders on the Portfolio’s behalf.
25
The Portfolio currently does not foresee any disadvantages to investors if the Portfolio serves as an investment option for Variable Contracts and it offers its shares directly to Qualified Plans and other permitted investors. However, it is possible that the interest of owners of Variable Contracts, Qualified Plans and other permitted investors, for which the Portfolio serves as an investment option, might at some time be in conflict because of differences in tax treatment or other considerations. The Board directed the Adviser to monitor events to identify any material conflicts between Variable Contract owners, Qualified Plans and other permitted investors and would have to determine what action, if any, should be taken in the event of such conflict. If such a conflict occurred, an insurance company participating in the Portfolio might be required to redeem the investment of one or more of its separate accounts from the Portfolio or a Qualified Plan, investment company or other permitted investor might be required to redeem its investment, which might force the Portfolio to sell securities at disadvantageous prices. The Portfolio may discontinue sales to a Qualified Plan and require plan participants with existing investments in the Portfolio to redeem those investments if the Qualified Plan loses (or in the opinion of the Adviser, is at risk of losing) its Qualified Plan status.
In addition, the Portfolio’s shares may be purchased by certain other management investment companies, including through fund-of-fund arrangements with ING affiliated funds. In some cases the Portfolio may serve as a primary or significant investment vehicle for the fund-of-funds. From time to time, the Portfolio may experience large investments or redemptions due to allocation or rebalancing by these funds-of-funds. While it is impossible to predict the overall impact of these transactions over time, there could be adverse effects on Portfolio management. For example, the Portfolio may be required to sell securities or invest cash at times when it would not otherwise do so. These transactions could also have tax consequences if sales or securities result in gains and could also increase transaction costs or portfolio turnover. The Adviser and Sub-Adviser will monitor transactions by the funds-of-funds and will attempt to minimize any adverse effects on the Portfolio as a result of these transactions. So long as the Portfolio accepts investments by other investment companies, it will not purchase securities of other investment companies, except to the extent permitted by the 1940 Act or under the terms of an exemptive order granted by the SEC.
The Portfolio reserves the right to suspend the offering of shares or to reject any specific purchase order. The Portfolio may suspend redemptions or postpone payments when the NYSE is closed or when trading is restricted for any reason or under emergency circumstances as determined by the SEC.
Distribution and Shareholder Service Plans
The Portfolio has a Distribution Plan (“12b-1 Plan”) in accordance with Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act for the Class S shares. These payments are made to the Distributor on an ongoing basis as compensation for services the Distributor provides and expenses it bears in connection with the marketing and other fees to support the sale and distribution of the Class S shares and for shareholder services provided by securities dealers (including the Adviser) and other financial intermediaries and plan administrators that provide administrative services relating to Class S shares and their shareholders, including Variable Contract owners or Qualified Plan participants with interests in the Portfolio. The annual distribution fee under the 12b-1 Plan may equal up to 0.25% of the average daily net assets of the Portfolio. Because these fees are paid out of the Portfolio’s assets on an ongoing basis, over time these fees will increase the cost of your investment and may cost you more than paying other types of sales charges.
Frequent Trading - Market Timing
The Portfolio is intended for long-term investment and not as short-term trading vehicles. Accordingly, organizations or individuals that use market timing investment strategies and make frequent transfers should not purchase shares of the Portfolio. Shares of the Portfolio are primarily sold through omnibus account arrangements with financial intermediaries, as investment options for Variable Contracts issued by insurance companies and as investment options for Qualified Plans. Omnibus accounts generally do not identify customers’ trading activity on an individual basis. The Portfolio’s Administrator has agreements which require such intermediaries to provide detailed account information, including trading history, upon request of the Portfolio.
The Portfolio relies on the financial intermediaries to monitor frequent, short-term trading within the Portfolio by its customers. You should review the materials provided to you by your financial intermediary including, in the case of a Variable Contract, the prospectus that describes the contract or, in the case of a Qualified Plan, the plan documentation for its policies regarding frequent, short-term trading. With trading information received as a result of these agreements, the Portfolio may make a determination that certain trading activity is harmful to the Portfolio and its shareholders, even if such activity is not strictly prohibited by the intermediaries’ excessive trading policy. As a result, a shareholder investing directly or indirectly in the Portfolio may have their trading privileges suspended without violating the stated excessive trading policy of the intermediary. The Portfolio reserves the right, in its sole discretion and without prior notice, to reject, restrict, or refuse purchase orders whether directly or by exchange including purchase orders that have been accepted by a financial intermediary. The Portfolio seeks assurances from the financial intermediaries that they have procedures adequate to monitor and address frequent, short-term trading. There is, however, no guarantee that the procedures of the financial intermediaries will be able to curtail frequent, short-term trading activity.
The Portfolio believes that market timing or frequent, short-term trading in any account, including a Variable Contract or Qualified Plan account, is not in the best interest of the Portfolio or its shareholders. Due to the disruptive nature of this activity, it can adversely impact the ability of the Adviser or the Sub-Adviser (if applicable) to invest assets in an orderly, long-term manner. Frequent trading can disrupt the management of the Portfolio and raise its expenses through: increased trading and transaction
26
costs; forced and unplanned portfolio turnover; lost opportunity costs; and large asset swings that decrease the Portfolio’s ability to provide maximum investment return to all shareholders. This in turn can have an adverse effect on the Portfolio’s performance.
Portfolios that invest in foreign securities may present greater opportunities for market timers and thus be at a greater risk for excessive trading. If an event occurring after the close of a foreign market, but before the time the Portfolio computes its current NAV, causes a change in the price of the foreign security and such price is not reflected in the Portfolio’s current NAV, investors may attempt to take advantage of anticipated price movements in securities held by the Portfolio based on such pricing discrepancies. This is often referred to as “price arbitrage.” Such price arbitrage opportunities may also occur in portfolios which do not invest in foreign securities. For example, if trading in a security held by the Portfolio is halted and does not resume prior to the time the Portfolio calculates its NAV, such “stale pricing” presents an opportunity for investors to take advantage of the pricing discrepancy. Similarly, the Portfolio that holds thinly-traded securities, such as certain small-capitalization securities, may be exposed to varying levels of pricing arbitrage. The Portfolio has adopted fair valuation policies and procedures intended to reduce the Portfolio’s exposure to price arbitrage, stale pricing, and other potential pricing discrepancies. However, to the extent that a Portfolio’s NAV does not immediately reflect these changes in market conditions, short-term trading may dilute the value of Portfolio shares, which negatively affects long-term shareholders.
Although the policies and procedures known to the Portfolio that are followed by the financial intermediaries that use the Portfolio and the monitoring by the Portfolio is designed to discourage frequent, short-term trading, none of these measures can eliminate the possibility that frequent, short-term trading activity in the Portfolio will occur. Moreover, decisions about allowing trades in the Portfolio may be required. These decisions are inherently subjective, and will be made in a manner that is in the best interest of the Portfolio’s shareholders.
Payments to Financial Intermediaries
ING mutual funds may be offered as investment options in Variable Contracts issued by affiliated and non-affiliated insurance companies and in Qualified Plans. Fees derived from the Portfolio’s Distribution and/or Service Plans (if applicable) may be paid to insurance companies, broker-dealers and companies that service Qualified Plans for selling the Portfolio’s shares and/or for servicing shareholder accounts. In addition, the Portfolio’s Adviser, Distributor, Administrator, or their affiliated entities, out of their own resources and without additional cost to the Portfolio or its shareholders, may pay additional compensation to these insurance companies, broker-dealers, or companies that service Qualified Plans. The Adviser, Distributor, Administrator, or affiliated entities of the Portfolio may also share their profits with affiliated insurance companies or other ING entities through inter-company payments.
For non-affiliated insurance companies and Qualified Plans, payments from the Portfolio’s Distribution and/or Service Plans (if applicable) as well as payments (if applicable) from the Portfolio’s Adviser and/or Distributor generally are based upon an annual percentage of the average net assets held in the Portfolio by those companies. The Portfolio’s Adviser and Distributor may make payments for administrative, record keeping, or other services that insurance companies or Qualified Plans provide to facilitate investment in the Portfolio. These payments as well as payments from the Portfolio’s Distribution and/or Service Plans (if applicable) may also provide incentive for insurance companies or Qualified Plans to make the Portfolio available through Variable Contracts or Qualified Plans, and thus they may promote the distribution of the shares of the Portfolio.
As of the date of April 30, 2013, the Distributor has entered into agreements with the following non-affiliated insurance companies: Zürich Kemper Life Insurance Company; Symetra Life Insurance Company; and First Fortis Life Insurance Company. Fees payable under these agreements are at annual rates that range from 0.15% to 0.25%. This is computed as a percentage of the average aggregate amount invested in the Portfolio by Variable Contract holders through the relevant insurance company’s Variable Contracts.
The insurance companies issuing Variable Contracts or Qualified Plans that use the Portfolio as investment options may also pay fees to third parties in connection with distribution of the Variable Contracts and for services provided to Variable Contract owners. Entities that service Qualified Plans may also pay fees to third parties to help service the Qualified Plans or the accounts of their participants. The Portfolio, the Adviser, and the Distributor are not parties to these arrangements. Variable Contract owners should consult the prospectus and statement of additional information for their Variable Contracts for a discussion of these payments and should consult with their agent or broker. Qualified Plan participants should consult with their pension servicing agent.
Ultimately, the agent or broker selling the Variable Contract to you could have a financial interest in selling you a particular product to increase the compensation they receive. Please make sure you read fully each prospectus and discuss any questions you have with your agent or broker.
Dividends, Distributions, and Taxes
Dividends and Distributions
The Portfolio declares and pays dividends from net investment income at least annually. The Portfolio will also pay distributions from net realized capital gains, reduced by available capital losses, at least annually. All dividends and capital gain distributions will be automatically reinvested in additional shares of the Portfolio at the NAV of such shares on the payment date unless a participating insurance company’s separate account is permitted to hold cash and elects to receive payment in cash. From time to time, a portion of the Portfolio’s distributions may constitute a return of capital.
27
To comply with federal tax regulations, the Portfolio may also pay an additional capital gains distribution.
Tax Matters
Holders of Variable Contracts should refer to the prospectus for their contracts for information regarding the tax consequences of owning such contracts and should consult their tax advisers before investing.
The Portfolio intends to qualify as a regulated investment company (“RIC”) for federal income tax purposes by satisfying the requirements under Subchapter M of the Code, including requirements with respect to diversification of assets, distribution of income, and sources of income. As a RIC, the Portfolio generally will not be subject to tax on its net investment company taxable income and net realized capital gains that it distributes to its shareholders.
The Portfolio also intends to comply with the diversification requirements of Section 817(h) of the Code and the underlying regulations for Variable Contracts so that owners of these contracts should not be subject to federal tax on distributions of dividends and income from the Portfolio to the insurance company’s separate accounts.
Since the sole shareholders of the Portfolio will be separate accounts or other permitted investors, no discussion is included herein as to the federal income tax consequences at the shareholder level. For information concerning the federal income tax consequences to purchasers of the policies, see the attached prospectus for the policy.
See the Portfolio’s Statement of Additional Information dated April 30, 2013 for further information about tax matters.
THE TAX STATUS OF YOUR INVESTMENT IN A PORTFOLIO DEPENDS UPON THE FEATURES OF YOUR VARIABLE CONTRACT. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION, PLEASE REFER TO THE PROSPECTUS FOR THE VARIABLE CONTACT.

FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
The following financial highlights are intended to help you understand the Portfolio’s financial performance for the past five years or, if shorter, the period of the share class’ operations. Certain information reflects financial results for a single share. The total returns represent the rate that an investor would have earned (or lost) on an investment in a share of the Portfolio (assuming reinvestment of all dividends and distributions).
This information has been derived from the Portfolio’s financial statements that were audited by KPMG LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, with the exception of the period ending June 30, 2013. The report of KPMG LLP, along with the financial statements included in the annual shareholder report dated December 31, 2012 and the (unaudited) semi-annual shareholder report dated June 30, 2013, are incorporated herein by reference.

(1) Total return is calculated assuming reinvestment of all dividends, capital gain distributions and return of capital distributions, if any, at net asset value and does not reflect the effect of insurance contract charges. Total return for periods less than one year is not annualized.
(2) Annualized for periods less than a year.
(3) Expense ratios do not include fees and expenses charged under the variable annuity contract or variable life insurance policy.
(4) Expense ratios reflect operating expenses of the Portfolio. Expenses before reductions/additions do not reflect amounts reimbursed by an Adviser and/or Distributor or reductions from brokerage service arrangments or other expense offset arrangements and do not represent the amount paid by a Portfolio during periods when reimbursements or reductions occur. Expenses net of fee waivers reflect expenses after reimbursement by an Adviser and/or Distributor but prior to reductions from brokerage service arrangments or other expense offset arrangements. Expenses net of all reductions/additions represent the net expenses paid by the Portfolio. Net investment income (loss) is net of all such additions or reductions.
· Calculated using average number of shares outstanding throughout the period.
† Impact of waiving the advisory fee for the ING Institutional Primary Money Market Fund holding has less than 0.005% impact on the expenses ratio and net investment income or loss ratio.

ING INTERMEDIATE BOND PORTFOLIO
Set forth below is an excerpt from Intermediate Bond Portfolio’s semi-annual report dated June 30, 2013.
Market Perspective: Six Months Ended June 30, 2013
Investors welcomed in 2013 having seen global equities, in the form of the MSCI World IndexSM measured in local currencies including net reinvested dividends, power ahead by 8.69% in the previous six months. Central banks from the U.S. to the U.K. to the euro zone were keeping interest rates so low that investors were ratcheting their risk exposures higher in the search for return. By the end of 2012 it was evident that the Bank of Japan would join the other central banks, as Japan’s parliamentary opposition, promising unlimited monetary easing, won a landslide in December elections. Some commentators fretted that this was not a particularly sound basis for the market’s advance. But sound or not, the index surged another 11.70% in the first half of 2013. (The MSCI World IndexSM returned 8.43% for the six-months ended June 30, 2013, measured in U.S. dollars.)
Much of the strength in global equities in late 2012 could be attributed to a recovery in the euro zone after European Central Bank (“ECB”) President Draghi’s July pronouncement, amid new waves of fear that the euro zone could not survive the depredations of its weakest members, that the ECB was “ready to do whatever it takes to preserve the euro.” This seemed to calm nerves, but confidence was shaken twice in early 2013. First, in February, the Italian general election ended in stalemate on low turnout that signaled the rejection of reform. Next, the final basis of a bailout for insolvent Cyprus banks imposed a levy on uninsured deposits and capital controls. In short order, a euro held in one country became different from a euro held in another: hardly the mark of an effective single currency.
In the U.S., with sentiment cushioned by the Federal Reserve’s $85 billion of monthly Treasury and mortgage-backed securities purchases, investors watched an economic recovery that was undeniable but unimpressive. By June monthly job creation was averaging 155,000 per month but the unemployment rate was still elevated at 7.6%. The highest consumer confidence indices in five years contrasted with stagnant manufacturing output. Growth in first quarter gross domestic product (“GDP”) was surprisingly revised down from 2.4% to a dreary 1.8%. At least the housing market was maintaining its recovery. The final S&P/Case-Shiller 20-City Composite Home Price Index showed a 12.05% year-over-year gain, the most in over seven years, with existing home sales the highest since November 2009.
Elsewhere, China faced faltering growth and fading exports, while it tried to pierce a bank credit bubble with blunt instruments.
But any illusions about the ultimate source of investor confidence in this environment were shattered on May 22 and again on June 19, when Federal Reserve Chairman Bernanke attempted to prepare markets for the beginning of the end of quantitative easing, perhaps sooner than expected. They didn’t like it. Bond yields soared and by June 24 the index had given back 8%, leading nervous central bankers the world over, in the last days of June, to assure all who would listen that easy money would be in force for a long time. So not only were markets being heavily influenced by central bankers; evidently central bankers were more than a little sensitive to their effect on markets.
In U.S. fixed income markets, the Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index (“Barclays Aggregate”) of investment grade bonds slipped 2.44% in the first half of 2013, having been slightly ahead for the year on May 21. Only the sub-indices with the shortest durations held on to positive returns while the Barclays Long Term U.S. Treasury Index lost 7.83%. The Barclays High Yield Bond — 2% Issuer Constrained Composite Index (not a part of the Barclays Aggregate) gained just 1.42%.
U.S. equities, represented by the S&P 500® Index including dividends, jumped 13.82% in the half year, the best first half since 1998, albeit 4% off its high. All sectors rose, led by health care with a gain of 20.26% and financials 19.50%, while materials 2.90% and technology 6.35% lagged the most. Operating earnings per share for S&P 500® companies set a record in the first quarter of 2013. But could this last given that the share of profits in national income was historically high?
In currency markets the dollar rose 1.41% against the euro over the period and 6.85% against the pound, due to the generally better growth outlook in the U.S., events described above in Italy and Cyprus and as Moody’s relieved the U.K. of its Aaa credit rating. The dollar climbed 14.28% over the yen due to the new aggressive monetary easing policy in Japan.
In international markets, the MSCI Japan® Index soared 33.90%. Investors hoped Prime Minister Abe’s and Bank of Japan Governor Kuroda’s steps to conquer deflation and get consumers and businesses spending again would gain traction. Encouragingly GDP growth was reported at 4.1% annualized in the first quarter. However prices were still in the doldrums, flat in May from a year earlier after six straight falls. The MSCI Europe ex UK® Index rose 5.41%, less than half of this for euro zone markets. Mr. Draghi’s words were perceived to remove the existential threat to the euro. But there was little else to motivate investors. The euro zone reported its sixth straight quarterly fall in GDP and a new record unemployment rate of 12.2%, ranging from 5.4% in Germany to 26.8% in Spain. The MSCI UK® Index added
2
7.46%. As in the U.S. and latterly Japan, stock prices were supported by the central bank’s quantitative easing. Having fallen by 0.3% in the fourth quarter, GDP recovered the loss in the first quarter of 2013 and June ended with some key indicators: purchasing managers’ indices and retail sales, showing tentative improvement.

NOTES TO PRO FORMA FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
Note 1 — Basis of Combination:
The Board of Trustees (the “Board”) of ING Bond Portfolio (“Bond”) and ING Intermediate Bond Portfolio (“Intermediate Bond”) (each a “Portfolio” and collectively, the “Portfolios”), approved an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization dated September 12, 2013 (the “Plan”) whereby, subject to approval by the shareholders of Bond, Intermediate Bond will acquire all of the assets of Bond, subject to the liabilities of such Portfolio, in exchange for Intermediate Bond issuing shares of such fund to shareholders of Bond in a number equal in value to net assets of Bond (the “Merger”).
The Merger will be accounted for as a tax-free merger of investment companies with Intermediate Bond remaining as both the tax and accounting survivor. The unaudited pro forma combined financial statements are presented for the information of the reader and may not necessarily be representative of what the actual combined financial statements would have been had the reorganization(s) occurred at June 30, 2013. The unaudited pro forma Portfolio of Investments and Statement of Assets and Liabilities reflect the financial position of Bond and Intermediate Bond at June 30, 2013. The unaudited pro forma Statement of Operations reflects the results of operations of Bond and Intermediate Bond for the twelve-months ended June 30, 2013. These statements have been derived from the Portfolios’ respective books and records utilized in calculating daily net asset value at the date indicated above for Bond and Intermediate Bond under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for investment companies. The unaudited pro forma Portfolio of Investments reflects the pro forma combined portfolio holdings of Bond and Intermediate Bond as of June 30, 2013. This unaudited pro forma Portfolio of Investments reflects management’s anticipation that most portfolio transitioning, including the sale of most holdings of Bond and the purchases of assets Intermediate Bond may hold or wish to hold, will take place shortly prior to the closing date of the Mergers. The historical cost of investment securities will be carried forward to the surviving entity and the results of operations of Intermediate Bond for pre-combination periods will not be restated.
The unaudited pro forma Portfolio of Investments, and Statement of Assets and Liabilities and Statement of Operations should be read in conjunction with the historical financial statements of each Portfolio, which are incorporated by reference in the Statement of Additional Information.
Note 2 — Security Valuation:
Investments in equity securities traded on a national securities exchange are valued at the last reported sale price. Securities reported by NASDAQ will be valued at the NASDAQ official closing price. Portfolio 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 the time such valuation is determined by a Portfolio’s custodian. Debt securities are valued at bid prices obtained from independent services or from one or more dealers making markets in the securities and may be adjusted based on a Portfolio’s 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 for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at their fair values as determined in good faith and in accordance with policies set by the Board of each Portfolio. Among elements of analysis, the Board has authorized the use of one or more research services to assist with the determination of the fair value of foreign securities in light of significant events. Research services use statistical analyses and quantitative models to help determine fair value as of the time a Portfolio calculates its net asset value. Investments in securities maturing in 60 days or less are valued at amortized cost, which, when combined with accrued interest, approximates market value.
Note 3 — Capital Shares:
The unaudited pro forma net asset value per share assumes additional shares of common Intermediate Bond issued in connection with the proposed acquisition of Bond by Intermediate Bond as of June 30, 2013. The number of additional shares issued was calculated by dividing the net assets of each class of Bond by the respective class net asset value per share of Intermediate Bond.
Note 4 — Merger Costs:
ING Investments, LLC (the “Adviser”) will bear the costs associated with obtaining shareholder approval, including, but not limited to, vote solicitation and SEC filings.
35
Merger costs to be incurred by the Adviser are estimated at approximately $132,500. These costs represent the estimated expenses of the Portfolio carrying out its obligations under the Plan and consist of management’s estimate of legal fees, accounting fees, printing costs and mailing charges related to the proposed merger.
Note 5 — Use of Estimates in Preparation of Pro Forma Financial Statements:
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.
Note 6 — 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 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. A portion of the amount of these capital loss carryforwards may be limited in the future.

(“Registrant”)
PART C:
OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 15. INDEMNIFICATION
Article 5.3 of ING Intermediate Bond Portfolio’s Amended and Restated Declaration of Trust, as amended, provides the following:
5.3 Indemnification. The Trust shall indemnify its trustees and officers, and any person who serves at the request of the Trust as a director, officer, employee, or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, or other enterprise as follows:
(a) Every person who is or has been a trustee or officer of the Trust and persons who serve at the Trust’s request as director or officer of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, or other enterprise shall be indemnified by the Trust to the fullest extent permitted by law against liability and against all expenses reasonably incurred or paid in connection with any debt, claim, action, demand, suit, proceeding, judgment, decree, liability or obligation of any kind in which he/she becomes involved as a party or otherwise by virtue of being or having been a trustee or officer of the Trust or of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, or other enterprise at the request of the Trust and against amounts paid or incurred in the settlement thereof.
(b) The words “claim,” “action,” “suit,” or “proceeding” shall apply to all claims, actions, suits, or proceedings (civil, criminal, administrative, legislative, investigative, or other, including appeals), actual or threatened, and the words “liability” and “expenses” shall include, without limitation, attorneys’ fees, costs, judgments, amounts paid in settlement, fines, penalties, and other liabilities.
(c) No indemnification shall be provided hereunder to a trustee, officer, employee, or agent against any liability to the Trust, a Series thereof, or its shareholders by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence, or reckless disregard of the duties involved in the conduct of office.
(d) The right of indemnification herein provided may be insured against by policies maintained by the Trust, shall be severable; shall not affect any other rights to which any trustee, officer, employee, or agent may now or hereafter be entitled; shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be such trustee, officer, employee, or agent; and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors, and administrators of such a person.
(e) In the absence of a final decision on the merits by a court or other body before which such proceeding was brought, an indemnification payment will not be made, except as provided in paragraph (f) of this Article, unless in the absence of such a decision, a reasonable determination based upon a factual review has been made: (i) by a majority vote of a quorum of non-party trustees who are not interested persons of the Trust, or (ii) by independent legal counsel in a written opinion that the indemnitee was not liable for an act of willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence, or reckless disregard of duties.
(f) The Trust further undertakes that advancement of expenses incurred in the defense of a proceeding (upon undertaking for repayment unless it is ultimately determined that indemnification is appropriate) against a trustee or officer of the Trust will not be made absent the fulfillment of at least one of the following conditions: (i) the indemnitee provides security for this undertaking; (ii) the Trust is insured against losses arising by reason of any lawful advances; or (iii) a majority of a quorum of disinterested non-party trustees or independent legal counsel in a written opinion shall have determined, based on a review of readily available facts (as opposed to a full trial-type inquiry), that there is reason to believe the indemnitee ultimately will be entitled to indemnification.
(g) No amendment of this Declaration or repeal of any of its provisions shall limit or eliminate the rights of indemnification provided hereunder with respect to acts or omission occurring prior to such amendment or repeal.
In addition, ING Intermediate Bond Portfolio’s officers and trustees are currently covered under a directors and officers errors and omissions liability insurance policy issued by ICI Mutual Insurance Company.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”) may be permitted to trustees, officers, and controlling persons of ING Intermediate Bond Portfolio pursuant to the foregoing provisions or otherwise, ING Intermediate Bond Portfolio has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the 1933 Act and is therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by ING Intermediate Bond Portfolio of expenses incurred or paid by a trustee, officer, or controlling person of ING Intermediate Bond Portfolio in connection with the successful defense of any action, suit, or proceeding) is asserted by such trustee, officer, or controlling person in connection with the shares being registered, ING Intermediate Bond Portfolio will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the
1
matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy, as expressed in the Act and be governed by final adjudication of such issue.
Pursuant to Indemnification Agreements between the Trust and each Independent Trustee, the Trust indemnifies each Independent Trustee against any liabilities resulting from the Independent Trustee’s serving in such capacity, provided that the Independent Trustee has not engaged in certain disabling conduct.
