Expense Example
As a shareholder of a Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchase payments (these charges vary among the share classes); and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and service (12b-1) fees (these charges vary among the share classes); and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in each Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (October 1, 2023 through March 31, 2024.)
Actual Expenses
For each class of each Fund, the first line of the applicable table on the following pages provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading titled “Expenses Paid During Period 10/1/23 - 3/31/24” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
For each class of each Fund, the second line of the applicable table on the following pages provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in each Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges (loads). Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

Short Duration, Intermediate, National, High Income, Short Duration High Income, Sustainable and California are diversified as defined in the Act. New Jersey and New York are non-diversified as defined in the Act.
The investment objective of each Fund (except for High Income and Short Duration High Income) is to seek the maximum amount of interest income exempt from federal income tax as is consistent with reasonable risk. The investment objective of High Income and Short Duration High Income is to seek a high level of income exempt from federal income tax. Each of California, New Jersey and New York also seeks as high a level of interest income exempt from the personal income tax of its corresponding state as is consistent with reasonable risk. In addition, New York seeks as high a level of interest income exempt from New York City personal income tax as is consistent with reasonable risk.
Each class of shares has different expenses and dividends. A front-end sales charge is normally added to the net asset value (“NAV”) for Class A shares. There is no front-end sales charge in the case of Class C, F, F3 and I shares, although there may be a contingent deferred sales charge (“CDSC”) in certain cases as follows: Class A shares purchased without a sales charge and redeemed before the first day of the month in which the eighteen-month anniversary of the purchase falls (subject to certain exceptions as set forth in each Fund’s prospectus); and Class C shares redeemed before the first anniversary of purchase. Class C shares automatically convert to Class A shares on the 25th day of the month (or, if the 25th day is not a business day, the next business day thereafter) following the eighth anniversary of the month on which the purchase order was accepted, provided that the Funds or financial intermediary through which a shareholder purchased Class C shares has records verifying that the Class C shares have been held at least eight years.
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period.
246
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
Actual results could differ from those estimates. Each Fund is considered an investment company under U.S. GAAP and follows the accounting and reporting guidance applicable to investment companies.
2. | SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
(a) | Investment Valuation–Under procedures approved by the Funds’ Board of Directors (the “Board”), the Board has designated the determination of fair value of the Funds’ portfolio investments to Lord, Abbett & Co. LLC (“Lord Abbett”) as its valuation designee. Accordingly, Lord Abbett is responsible for, among other things, assessing and managing valuation risks, establishing, applying and testing fair value methodologies, and evaluating pricing services. Lord Abbett has formed a Pricing Committee that performs these responsibilities on behalf of Lord Abbett, administers the pricing and valuation of portfolio investments and ensures that prices utilized reasonably reflect fair value. Among other things, these procedures allow Lord Abbett, subject to Board oversight, to utilize independent pricing services, quotations from securities and financial instrument dealers and other market sources to determine fair value. |
| |
| Securities are valued based on evaluated prices supplied by independent pricing services, which reflect broker/dealer supplied valuations and the independent pricing services’ own electronic data processing techniques. Exchange traded options and futures contracts are valued at the last quoted sale price in the market where they are principally traded. If no sale has occurred, the mean between the most recently quoted bid and ask prices is used. |
| |
| Securities for which prices are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined by the Pricing Committee. The Pricing Committee considers a number of factors, including observable and unobservable inputs, when arriving at fair value. The Pricing Committee may use observable inputs such as yield curves, broker quotes, observable trading activity, option adjusted spread models and other relevant information to determine the fair value of portfolio investments. The Board or a designated committee thereof periodically reviews reports that may include fair value determinations made by the Pricing Committee, related market activity, inputs and assumptions, and retrospective comparison of prices of subsequent purchases and sales transactions to fair value determinations made by the Pricing Committee. |
| |
| Short-term securities with 60 days or less remaining to maturity are valued using the amortized cost method, which approximates fair value. |
| |
(b) | Security Transactions–Security transactions are recorded as of the date that the securities are purchased or sold (trade date). Realized gains and losses on sales of portfolio securities are calculated using the identified-cost method. Realized and unrealized gains (losses) are allocated to each class of shares based upon the relative proportion of net assets at the beginning of the day. |
| |
(c) | Investment Income–Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis as earned. Discounts are accreted and premiums are amortized using the effective interest method and are included in Interest and other, if applicable, in the Statements of Operations. Investment income is allocated to each class of shares based upon the relative proportion of net assets at the beginning of the day. |
| |
(d) | Income Taxes–It is the policy of each Fund to meet the requirements of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all taxable income and capital gains to its shareholders. Therefore, no income tax provision is required. |
247
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
| Each Fund files U.S. federal and various state and local tax returns. No income tax returns are currently under examination. The statute of limitations on each Fund’s, except Sustainable’s, filed U.S. federal tax returns remains open for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2020 through September 30, 2023. The statute of limitation for Sustainable’s filed U.S. federal tax return remains open for the period ended September 30, 2022 through September 30, 2023. The statutes of limitations on the Company’s state and local tax returns may remain open for an additional year depending upon the Fund’s jurisdiction. |
| |
(e) | Expenses–Expenses incurred by the Company that do not specifically relate to an individual fund are generally allocated to the Funds within the Company on a pro rata basis by relative net assets. Expenses, excluding class-specific expenses, are allocated to each class of shares based upon the relative proportion of net assets at the beginning of the day. In addition, Class F3 shares bear their class-specific share of shareholder servicing expenses. Class A, C and F shares bear their class-specific share of all expenses and fees relating to the Funds’ 12b-1 Distribution Plan. |
| |
(f) | Futures Contracts–Each Fund may purchase and sell futures contracts to enhance returns, to attempt to economically hedge some of its investment risk, or as a substitute position in lieu of holding the underlying asset on which the instrument is based. At the time of entering into a futures transaction, an investor is required to deposit and maintain a specified amount of cash or eligible securities called “initial margin.” Subsequent payments made or received by the Funds called “variation margin” are made on a daily basis as the market price of the futures contract fluctuates. Each Fund will record an unrealized gain (loss) based on the amount of variation margin. When a contract is closed, a realized gain (loss) is recorded equal to the difference between the opening and closing value of the contract. |
| |
(g) | When-Issued Municipal Bonds–Each Fund may purchase new issues of municipal bonds, which are generally offered on a when-issued basis. Payment and delivery may take place after customary settlement period for that security. |
| |
(h) | Municipal Bonds Held in Trust–Each Fund may invest in leveraged residual certificates (“TOB Residuals”) issued by tender option bond trusts (“TOBs”). A TOB is established by a third party sponsor forming a special purpose entity into which a Fund, or an agent on behalf of the Fund, transfers municipal securities. A TOB typically issues two classes of beneficial interests: short-term floating rate certificates (trust certificates), which are sold to third party investors, and residual certificates, which are generally issued to the Fund which made the transfer or to affiliates of the Fund. Each Fund’s transfer of the municipal securities to a TOB is accounted for as a secured borrowing, therefore the municipal securities deposited into a TOB are presented as investments in a Fund’s Schedule of Investments and the proceeds from the transactions are reported as a liability for Trust certificates in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Similarly, proceeds from residual certificates issued to affiliates, if any, from the transaction are included in the liability for Trust certificates. Interest income from the underlying security is recorded by a Fund on an accrual basis. Interest expense incurred on the secured borrowing and other expenses related to remarketing, administration and trustee services to a TOB are reported as expenses of a Fund. The floating rate certificates have interest rates that generally reset weekly and their holders have the option to tender certificates to the TOB for redemption at par at each reset date. The residual interests held by a Fund include the right of the Fund (1) to cause the holders of a proportional share of floating rate certificates to tender their certificates at par and (2) to transfer a corresponding share of the municipal |
248
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
| securities from the TOB to the Fund. The TOB may also be terminated without the consent of the Fund upon the occurrence of certain events as defined in the TOB agreements. Such termination events may include the bankruptcy or default of the municipal bond, a substantial downgrade in credit quality of the municipal bond, the inability of the TOB to obtain quarterly or annual renewal of the liquidity support agreement, a substantial decline in market value of the municipal bond or the inability to remarket the short-term floating rate certificates to third party investors. |
| |
| The following is a summary of TOBs during the six months ended March 31, 2024: |
| Fund | | Liability for Trust Certificates | | | Interest Rate or Range of Interest Rates | | | Underlying Municipal Bonds Transferred to TOBs | | | Average Trust Certificates Outstanding | |
| Short Duration | | $ | – | | | | – | | | $ | – | | | $ | – | |
| Intermediate | | | – | | | | – | | | | – | | | | – | |
| National | | | 93,135,000 | | | | 3.65%–4.70% | | | | 200,620,676 | | | | 90,801,667 | |
| High Income | | | 58,465,000 | | | | 3.65%–4.70% | | | | 125,980,499 | | | | 56,131,667 | |
| Short Duration High Income | | | – | | | | – | | | | – | | | | – | |
| Sustainable | | | – | | | | – | | | | – | | | | – | |
| California | | | – | | | | – | | | | – | | | | – | |
| New Jersey | | | – | | | | – | | | | – | | | | – | |
| New York | | | – | | | | – | | | | – | | | | – | |
| Financial transactions executed through TOBs generally will underperform the market for fixed rate municipal bonds in a rising interest rate environment, but tend to outperform the market for fixed rate municipal bonds when interest rates decline or remain relatively stable. Should short-term interest rates rise, a Fund’s investment in TOB Residuals likely will adversely affect a Fund’s net investment income and distributions to shareholders. Fluctuations in the market value of municipal securities deposited into the TOB may adversely affect a Fund’s NAV per share. The carrying value of each Fund’s liability for Trust certificates approximates its fair value. |
| |
| While the Funds’ investment policies and restrictions expressly permit investments in inverse floating rate securities such as TOB Residuals, they generally do not allow the Funds to borrow money for purposes of making investments. The Funds’ management believes that the Funds’ restrictions on borrowings do not apply to TOB transactions, accounted for as secured borrowings. |
| |
(i) | Fair Value Measurements–Fair value is defined as the price that each Fund would receive upon selling an investment or transferring a liability in an orderly transaction to an independent buyer in the principal or most advantageous market of the investment. A three-tier hierarchy is used to maximize the use of observable market data and minimize the use of unobservable inputs and to establish classification of fair value measurements for disclosure purposes. Inputs refer broadly to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk - for example, the risk inherent in a particular valuation technique used to measure fair value (such as a pricing model) and/or the risk inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique. Inputs may be observable or unobservable. Observable inputs reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Observable inputs are based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity. Unobservable inputs reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions about the |
| |
249
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
| assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Unobservable inputs are based on the best information available in the circumstances. The three-tier hierarchy classification is determined based on the lowest level of inputs that is significant to the fair value measurement, and is summarized in the three broad Levels listed below: |
| ● | Level 1 – | unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical investments; |
| | | |
| ● | Level 2 – | other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.); and |
| | | |
| ● | Level 3 – | significant unobservable inputs (including each Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments). |
| A summary of inputs used in valuing each Fund’s investments as of March 31, 2024 and, if applicable, Level 3 rollforwards for the six months then ended is included in each Fund’s Schedule of Investments. |
| |
| Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers into or out of an assigned level within the three-tier hierarchy. The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. |
3. | MANAGEMENT FEE AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES |

4. | DISTRIBUTIONS AND TAX INFORMATION |
Dividends are paid from net investment income, if any. Capital gain distributions are paid from taxable net realized gains from investments transactions, reduced by allowable capital loss carryforwards, if any. The capital loss carryforward amount, if any, is available to offset future net capital gains. Dividends and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The amounts of dividends and distributions from net investment income and net realized capital gains are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from U.S. GAAP. These book/tax differences are either considered temporary or permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are permanent in nature, such amounts are reclassified within the components of net assets based on their federal tax basis treatment; temporary differences do not require reclassification. Dividends and distributions, which exceed earnings and profits for tax purposes, are reported as a tax return of capital.
The tax character of distributions paid during the six months ended March 31, 2024 was as follows:
Fund | | Tax-Exempt Income | | | Ordinary Income | | | Net Long-Term Capital Gains | | | Return of Capital | | | Total Distributions Paid |

6. | DISCLOSURES ABOUT DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES |
Each Fund except Intermediate and Sustainable entered into U.S. Treasury futures contracts during the six months ended March 31, 2024 (as described in Note 2(f)) to economically hedge against changes in interest rates. The Funds bear the risk of interest rates moving unexpectedly, in which case the Funds may not achieve the anticipated benefits of the futures contracts and realize a loss. There is minimal counterparty credit risk to the Funds since futures are exchange traded and the exchange’s clearinghouse, as counterparty to all exchange traded futures, guarantees futures against default.
As of March 31, 2024, the Funds had interest rate futures contracts with cumulative net unrealized appreciation/depreciation which are included in the Schedules of Investments. Only the current day’s variation margin is included in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. The net realized gain (loss) on futures contracts and change in unrealized appreciation/depreciation on futures contracts are included in the Statements of Operations under the captions Net realized gain (loss) on futures contracts and Net change in unrealized appreciation/depreciation on futures contracts, respectively.
The following is a summary of U.S. Treasury futures contracts during the six months ended March 31, 2024:
| | Net Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation) as of March 31, 2024 | | | Net Realized Gain (Loss) | | | Net Change in Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation) | | | Average Number of Contracts* | |
Short Duration | | $ | – | | | $ | (433,622 | ) | | $ | 487,900 | | | | 87 | |

* | Calculated based on the number of contracts during the six months ended March 31, 2024. |
7. | DISCLOSURES ABOUT OFFSETTING ASSETS AND LIABILITIES |
The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) requires disclosure intended to help better assess the effect or potential effect of offsetting arrangements on a fund’s financial position. These requirements include the disclosure of gross and net information about recognized assets and liabilities eligible for offset in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities, and disclose such amounts subject to an enforceable master netting agreement or similar agreement, by the counterparty. A master netting agreement is an agreement between a fund and a counterparty which provides for the net settlement of amounts owed under all contracts traded under that agreement, as well as cash collateral, through a single payment by one party to the other in the event of default on or termination of any one contract. The Funds’ accounting policy with respect to balance sheet offsetting is that, absent an event of default by the counterparty or a termination of the agreement, the master netting agreement does not result in an offset of reported amounts of financial assets and liabilities in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities across transactions between a Fund and the applicable counterparty. As of March 31, 2024, the Funds did not have assets or liabilities subject to the FASB disclosure requirements.

8. | DIRECTORS’ REMUNERATION |
The Company’s officers and one Director, who are associated with Lord Abbett, do not receive any compensation from the Company for serving in such capacities. Independent Directors’ fees are allocated among all Lord Abbett-sponsored funds based on the net assets of each fund. There is an equity-based plan available to all Independent Directors under which Independent Directors may elect to defer receipt of a portion of Directors’ fees. The deferred amounts are treated as though equivalent dollar amounts had been invested in the Funds. Such amounts and earnings accrued thereon are included in Directors’ fees in the Statements of Operations and in Directors’ fees payable in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities and are not deductible for U.S. federal income tax purposes until such amounts are paid.
For the period ended March 31, 2024, the Funds and certain other funds managed by Lord Abbett (collectively, the “Participating Funds”) were party to a syndicated line of credit facility with various lenders for $1.6 billion (the “Syndicated Facility”) under which State Street Bank and Trust Company (“SSB”) participated as a lender and as agent for the lenders. The Participating Funds were subject to graduated borrowing limits of one-third of fund net assets (if fund net assets are less than $750 million), $250 million, $300 million, $700 million, or $1 billion, based on past borrowings and likelihood of future borrowings, among other factors.
For the period ended March 31, 2024, the Participating Funds were also party to an additional uncommitted line of credit facility with SSB for $330 million (the “Bilateral Facility”). Under the Bilateral Facility, the Participating Funds were subject to graduated borrowing limits of one-third of fund net assets (if fund net assets are less than $750 million), or $250 million based on past borrowings and likelihood of future borrowings, among other factors.
These credit facilities are to be used for temporary or emergency purposes as additional sources of liquidity to satisfy redemptions.
For the six months ended March 31, 2024, the Funds did not utilize the Syndicated Facility or Bilateral Facility.
10. | INTERFUND LENDING PROGRAM |
Pursuant to an exemptive order issued by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC exemptive order”) certain registered open-end management investment companies managed by Lord Abbett, including each Fund, participate in a joint lending and borrowing program (the “Interfund Lending Program”). The SEC exemptive order allows the funds that participate in the Interfund Lending Program to borrow money from and lend money to each other for temporary or emergency purposes subject to the limitations and conditions.
For the six months ended March 31, 2024, the Funds did not participate as a borrower or lender in the Interfund Lending Program.
11. | CUSTODIAN AND ACCOUNTING AGENT |
SSB is the Company’s custodian and accounting agent. SSB performs custodial, accounting and recordkeeping functions relating to portfolio transactions and calculating each Fund’s NAV.

12. | SECURITIES LENDING AGREEMENT |
The Funds have established a securities lending agreement with Citibank, N.A. for the lending of securities to qualified brokers in exchange for securities or cash collateral equal to at least the market value of securities loaned, plus interest, if applicable. Cash collateral is invested in an approved money market fund. In accordance with the Funds’ securities lending agreement, the market value of securities on loan is determined each day at the close of business and any additional collateral required to cover the value of securities on loan is delivered to the Funds on the next business day. As with other extensions of credit, the Funds may experience a delay in the recovery of their securities or incur a loss should the borrower of the securities breach its agreement with the Funds or the borrower becomes insolvent at a time when the collateral is insufficient to cover the cost of repurchasing securities on loan. Any income earned from securities lending is included in securities lending net income in each Fund’s Statements of Operations.
The initial collateral received by the Funds is required to have a value equal to at least 100% of the market value of the securities loaned. The collateral must be marked-to-market daily to cover increases in the market value of the securities loaned (or potentially a decline in the value of the collateral). In general, the risk of borrower default will be borne by Citibank, N.A.; the Funds will bear the risk of loss with respect to the investment of the cash collateral. The advantage of such loans is that the Funds continue to receive income on loaned securities while receiving a portion of any securities lending fees and earning returns on the cash amounts which may be reinvested for the purchase of investments in securities.
As of March 31, 2024, the Funds did not have any securities on loan.
Each Fund’s performance and the fair value of its investments will vary in response to changes in interest rates and other market factors. As interest rates rise, a Fund’s investments typically will lose value. This risk is usually greater for long-term bonds and particularly for TOB Residuals. As a result, each Fund, to the extent it invests in long-term bonds and TOB Residuals, is subject to such greater market risk. During periods of falling interest rates, a Fund’s investments may gain value; however, because Short Duration and Short Duration High Income typically invest in shorter term bonds, those Funds are subject to the risk that they will underperform funds invested in longer-term bonds during such periods.
Additional risks that could reduce each Fund’s performance or increase volatility include call risk, credit risk, defaulted bonds risk (High Income and Short Duration High Income only), derivatives risk, distressed debt risk (High Income and Short Duration High Income only), extension risk, floating rate interest risk (Sustainable only), fixed income securities risk, governmental risk, liquidity risk, market and portfolio management risks, market disruption and geopolitical risk, municipal securities risk, new fund risk (Sustainable only), short duration risk (Short Duration and Short Duration High Income only), state and territory risks, taxability risk and zero coupon, deferred interest, pay-in-kind, and capital appreciation bonds risk (all Funds except Short Duration, Intermediate, Short Duration High Income, and Sustainable Municipal Bond Fund). Credit risk varies among states based upon the economic and fiscal conditions of each state and the municipalities within the state.
There is the risk that an issuer of a municipal bond may fail to make timely payments of principal or interest to a Fund, a risk that is greater with municipal bonds rated below investment grade (sometimes called “lower rated bonds” or “junk bonds”). High Income, Short Duration High Income, Sustainable and, to a lesser extent, other Funds invest a portion of its assets in such bonds. Some
257
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
issuers, particularly of junk bonds, may default as to principal and/or interest payments after a Fund purchases their securities. A default, or concerns in the market about an increase in risk of default or the deterioration in the creditworthiness of an issuer, may result in losses to a Fund. Junk bonds are considered predominantly speculative by traditional investment standards. In addition, the market for lower rated municipal bonds generally is less liquid and more volatile than the market for higher rated bonds, subjecting them to greater price fluctuations which could result in losses.
New Jersey and New York are non-diversified, which means that they may invest a greater portion of their assets in a single issuer than a diversified fund. Thus, they may be exposed to greater risk.
Because each of California, New Jersey, and New York focuses on a particular state or territory, the Fund’s performance may be more affected by local, state and regional factors than a Fund that invests in municipal bonds issued in many states. These factors may include, for example, economic or political developments, erosion of the tax base and the possibility of credit problems. In addition, downturns or developments in the U.S. economy or in foreign economies or significant world events may harm the performance of any of the Funds (including Short Duration, Intermediate, National, High Income, Short Duration High Income and Sustainable), and may do so disproportionately as a result of the corresponding disproportionate impact of such occurrences on particular state, territory, or local economies.
Because Sustainable considers sustainability factors when evaluating an investment, the Fund may underperform funds that do not take sustainability-related factors into account. There is no guarantee that Lord Abbett will successfully implement and make investments in issuers that create a positive environmental, social or governance impact while achieving the desired financial returns. In evaluating an issuer, Lord Abbett may be dependent on data or information that may be incomplete, inaccurate or unavailable. Sustainable is a newly organized fund and there can be no assurance that it will reach or maintain a sufficient asset size to effectively implement its investment strategy.
Each Fund may invest in private activity bonds (sometimes called “AMT paper”). The credit quality of AMT paper usually is directly related to the credit standing of the private user of the facilities.
National, High Income, Short Duration High Income and, to a lesser extent, other Funds may invest in TOB Residuals. A TOB Residual, sometimes referred to as an inverse floater or a residual interest bond (“RIB”), is a type of derivative debt instrument with a floating or variable interest rate that moves in the opposite direction of the interest rate on another specific fixed-rate security. Changes in the interest rate on the specific fixed-rate security inversely affect the residual interest paid on the TOB Residual, with the result that when interest rates rise, TOB Residuals’ interest payments are lowered and their value falls faster than securities similar to the specific fixed-rate security. When interest rates fall, not only do TOB Residuals generally provide interest payments that are higher than securities similar to the specific fixed-rate security, but their values generally also rise faster than such similar securities.
In addition, loss may result from a Fund’s investments in certain derivative transactions such as futures contracts, swap transactions, interest rate caps, TOB Residuals and similar transactions. These instruments may be leveraged so that small changes may produce disproportionate and substantial losses to a Fund. They also may increase a Fund’s interest rate risk.
Each Fund may purchase securities on a forward commitment or when-issued basis. Delivery and payment for such securities can take place a month or more after the transaction date. During this period such securities are subject to market fluctuations.
258
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
Geopolitical and other events (e.g., wars, terrorism, natural disasters, epidemics or pandemics) may disrupt securities markets and adversely affect global economies and markets, thereby decreasing the value of each Fund’s investments. Market disruptions can also prevent each Fund from implementing its investment strategies and achieving its investment objective.
In March 2023, the shut-down of certain financial institutions raised economic concerns over disruption in the U.S. banking system. There can be no certainty that the actions taken by the U.S. government to strengthen public confidence in the U.S. banking system will be effective in mitigating the effects of financial institution failures on the economy and restoring public confidence in the U.S. banking system. Other adverse developments that affect financial institutions or the financial services industry generally, or concerns or rumors about any events of these kinds or other similar risks, may reduce liquidity in the market generally or have other adverse effects on the economy, the Funds or issuers in which the Funds invest. In addition, issuers in which the Funds invest and the Funds may not be able to identify all potential solvency or stress concerns with respect to a financial institution or to transfer assets from one bank or financial institution to another in a timely manner in the event such bank or financial institution comes under stress or fails.
The impact of the COVID-19 outbreak, and the effects of other infectious illness outbreaks, epidemics, or pandemics, may be short term or may continue for an extended period of time. For example, a global pandemic or other widespread health crises could negatively affect the global economy, the economies of individual countries, and the financial performance of individual issuers, sectors, industries, asset classes, and markets in significant and unforeseen ways. Health crises caused by outbreaks of disease may also exacerbate other pre-existing political, social, and economic risks in certain countries or globally. The foregoing could disrupt the operations of each Fund and its service providers, adversely affect the value and liquidity of the Fund’s investments, and negatively impact the Fund’s performance and each investment in the Fund.

Approval of Advisory Contract
Lord Abbett Municipal Income Fund, Inc.
(Lord Abbett California Tax Free Fund, Lord Abbett High Income Municipal Bond Fund, Lord Abbett Intermediate Tax Free Fund, Lord Abbett National Tax Free Fund, Lord Abbett New Jersey Tax Free Fund, Lord Abbett New York Tax Free Fund, Lord Abbett Short Duration High Income Municipal Bond Fund, Lord Abbett Short Duration Tax Free Fund, and Lord Abbett Sustainable Municipal Bond Fund)
Approval of Advisory Contract
The Board, including all of the Directors who are not “interested persons” of the Company or of Lord Abbett, as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Independent Directors”), annually considers whether to approve the continuation of the existing management agreement between each Fund and Lord Abbett (the “Agreement”). In connection with its most recent approval, the Board reviewed materials relating specifically to the Agreement, as well as numerous materials received throughout the course of the year, including information about each Fund’s investment performance compared to the performance of an appropriate benchmark. Before making its decision as to each Fund, the Board had the opportunity to ask questions and request further information, taking into account its knowledge of Lord Abbett gained through its meetings and discussions. The Independent Directors also met with their independent legal counsel in various private sessions at which no representatives of management were present.
The materials received by the Board as to each Fund included, but were not limited to: (1) for each Fund, information provided by Broadridge Financial Solutions (“Broadridge”) regarding the investment performance of the Fund compared to the investment performance of certain funds with similar investment styles as determined by Broadridge, based, in part, on the Fund’s Morningstar category (the “performance peer group”), and the investment performance of one or more appropriate benchmarks; (2) information provided by Broadridge regarding the expense ratios, contractual and actual management fee rates, and other expense components for the Fund and certain funds in the same Morningstar category, with generally the same or similar share classes and operational characteristics, including asset size (the “expense peer group”); (3) certain supplemental investment performance information provided by Lord Abbett; (4) information provided by Lord Abbett on the expense ratios, management fee rates, and other expense components for the Fund; (5) sales and redemption information for the Fund; (6) information regarding Lord Abbett’s financial condition; (7) an analysis of the relative profitability to Lord Abbett of providing management and administrative services to the Fund; and (8) information regarding the personnel and other resources devoted by Lord Abbett to managing the Fund.
Investment Management and Related Services Generally. The Board considered the services provided by Lord Abbett to each Fund, including investment research, portfolio management, and trading, and Lord Abbett’s commitment to compliance with all applicable legal requirements. The Board also observed that Lord Abbett was solely engaged in the investment management business and accordingly did not experience the conflicts of interest that may result from being engaged in other lines of business. The Board considered the investment advisory services provided by Lord Abbett to other clients, the fees charged for the services, and the differences in the nature of the services provided to each Fund and other Lord Abbett Funds, on the one hand, and the services provided to other clients, on the other. With respect to Sustainable Municipal Bond Fund, the Board considered information about the incorporation of environmental, social and governance factors into the Fund’s investment process. After reviewing these and related factors, the Board concluded that each Fund was likely to continue to benefit from the nature, extent and quality of the investment services provided by Lord Abbett under the Agreement.
266
Approval of Advisory Contract (continued)
Investment Performance. The Board reviewed each Fund’s investment performance in relation to that of its performance peer group and one or more appropriate benchmarks as of various periods ended June 30, 2023. As to California Tax Free Fund, National Tax Free Fund and New Jersey Tax Free Fund, the Board observed that the Fund’s investment performance was above the median of its performance peer group for the one- and ten-year periods, but below the median of its performance peer group for the three- and five-year periods. As to High Income Municipal Bond Fund and Intermediate Tax Free Fund, the Board observed that the Fund’s investment performance was above the median of its performance peer group for the one-year period, but below the median of its performance peer group for the three-, five- and ten-year periods. As to New York Tax Free Fund, the Board observed that the Fund’s investment performance was above the median of its performance peer group for the one-, five- and ten-year periods and equal to the median of its performance peer group for the three-year period. As to Short Duration High Income Municipal Bond Fund, the Board observed that the Fund’s investment performance was above the median of its performance peer group for the one- and five-year periods, but below the median of its performance peer group for the three-year period. As to Short Duration Tax Free Fund, the Board observed that the Fund’s investment performance was below the median of its performance peer group for the one-, three- and ten-year periods, but equal to the median of its performance peer group for the five-year period. As to Sustainable Municipal Bond Fund, the Board observed that the Fund’s investment performance was above the median of its performance peer group for the one-year period. The Board further considered Lord Abbett’s performance and reputation generally, the performance of other Lord Abbett-managed funds overseen by the Board, and the willingness of Lord Abbett to take steps intended to improve performance when appropriate. After reviewing these and other factors, including those described below, the Board concluded that each Fund’s Agreement should be continued.
Lord Abbett’s Personnel and Methods. The Board considered the qualifications of the personnel providing investment management services to each Fund, in light of its investment objective and discipline, and other services to each Fund by Lord Abbett. Among other things, the Board considered the size, experience, and turnover of Lord Abbett’s staff, Lord Abbett’s investment methodology and philosophy, and Lord Abbett’s approach to recruiting, training, and retaining personnel.
Nature and Quality of Other Services. The Board considered the nature, quality, and extent of compliance, administrative, and other services performed by Lord Abbett and the nature and extent of Lord Abbett’s supervision of third-party service providers, including each Fund’s transfer agent and custodian.
Expenses. The Board considered the expense level of each Fund, including the contractual and actual management fee rates, and the expense levels of the Fund’s expense peer group. It also considered how each of the expense level and the actual management fee rates of each Fund related to those of the expense peer group and the amount and nature of the fees paid by shareholders. As to each of High Income Municipal Bond Fund, National Tax Free Fund, Short Duration High Income Municipal Bond Fund and Sustainable Municipal Bond Fund, the Board observed that the net total expense ratio of the Fund was below the median of the expense peer group. As to each of California Tax Free Fund, Intermediate Tax Free Fund, New Jersey Tax Free Fund, New York Tax Free Fund and Short Duration Tax Free Fund, the Board observed that the net total expense ratio of the Fund was the same as the median of the expense peer group. As to each of High Income Municipal Bond Fund, National Tax Free Fund, New Jersey Tax Free Fund, Short
267
Approval of Advisory Contract (continued)
Duration High Income Municipal Bond Fund and Sustainable Municipal Bond Fund, the Board observed that the actual management fee was below the median of the expense peer group. As to each of California Tax Free Fund, Intermediate Tax Free Fund, New York Tax Free Fund and Short Duration Tax Free Fund, the Board observed that the actual management fee was the same as the median of the expense peer group. After reviewing these and related factors, the Board concluded, within the context of its overall approval of the Agreement, that the management fees paid by each Fund were reasonable in light of all of the factors it considered, including the nature, quality and extent of services provided by Lord Abbett.
Profitability. As to each Fund, the Board considered the level of Lord Abbett’s operating margin in managing the Fund, including a review of Lord Abbett’s methodology for allocating its costs to its management of the Fund. It considered whether each Fund was profitable to Lord Abbett in connection with the Fund’s operation, including the fee that Lord Abbett receives from the Fund for providing administrative services to the Fund. The Board considered Lord Abbett’s profit margins excluding Lord Abbett’s marketing and distribution expenses. The Board also considered Lord Abbett’s profit margins, without those exclusions, in comparison with available industry data and how those profit margins could affect Lord Abbett’s ability to recruit and retain personnel. The Board recognized that Lord Abbett’s overall profitability was a factor in enabling it to attract and retain qualified personnel to provide services to each Fund. After reviewing these and related factors, the Board concluded, within the context of its overall approval of the Agreement, that Lord Abbett’s profitability with respect to each Fund was not excessive.
Economies of Scale. As to each Fund, the Board considered the extent to which there had been economies of scale in managing the Fund, whether the Fund’s shareholders had appropriately benefited from such economies of scale, and whether there was potential for realization of any further economies of scale. The Board also considered information provided by Lord Abbett regarding how it shares any potential economies of scale through its investments in its businesses supporting the Funds. The Board also considered each Fund’s existing management fee schedule, with one or more contractual breakpoints in the level of management fee, and, with respect to each of Short Duration Tax Free Fund, New Jersey Tax Free Fund, Sustainable Municipal Bond Fund and Short Duration High Income Municipal Bond Fund, the Fund’s expense limitation agreement. Based on these considerations, the Board concluded that any economies of scale were adequately addressed in respect of each Fund.
Other Benefits to Lord Abbett. As to each Fund, the Board considered the amount and nature of the fees paid by the Fund and the Fund’s shareholders to Lord Abbett and the Distributor for services other than investment advisory services, such as the fee that Lord Abbett receives from each Fund for providing administrative services to the Fund. The Board also considered the revenues and profitability of Lord Abbett’s investment advisory business apart from its mutual fund business, and the intangible benefits enjoyed by Lord Abbett by virtue of its relationship with each Fund. The Board observed that the Distributor receives 12b-1 fees from certain of the Lord Abbett Funds as to shares held in accounts for which there is no other broker of record, may retain a portion of the 12b-1 fees it receives, and receives a portion of the sales charges on sales and redemptions of some classes of shares of the Lord Abbett Funds. In addition, the Board observed that Lord Abbett accrues certain benefits for its business of providing investment advice to clients other than the Lord Abbett Funds, but that business also benefits the Funds. The Board also noted that Lord Abbett, as disclosed in the prospectus of each Fund, has entered into revenue sharing arrangements with
268
Approval of Advisory Contract (concluded)
certain entities that distribute shares of the Lord Abbett Funds. The Board also took into consideration the investment research that Lord Abbett receives as a result of client brokerage transactions.
Alternative Arrangements. As to each Fund, the Board considered whether, instead of approving continuation of the Agreement, it might be in the best interests of the Fund to implement one or more alternative arrangements, such as continuing to employ Lord Abbett, but on different terms. After considering all of the relevant factors, the Board unanimously found that continuation of the Agreement was in the best interests of each Fund and its shareholders and voted unanimously to approve the continuation of the Agreement on behalf of each Fund. As to each Fund, in considering whether to approve the continuation of the Agreement, the Board did not identify any single factor as paramount or controlling. Individual Directors may have evaluated the information presented differently from one another, giving different weights to various factors. This summary does not discuss in detail all matters considered.
269
Householding
The Company has adopted a policy that allows it to send only one copy of each Fund’s prospectus, proxy material, annual report and semiannual report (or related notice of internet availability of annual report and semiannual report) to certain shareholders residing at the same “household.” This reduces Fund expenses, which benefits you and other shareholders. If you need additional copies or do not want your mailings to be “householded,” please call Lord Abbett at 888-522-2388 or send a written request with your name, the name of your fund or funds and your account number or numbers Lord Abbett Funds Service Center, P.O. Box 534489, Pittsburgh, PA 15253-4489 (regular mail) or 500 Ross Street 154-0520, Attention 534489, Pittsburgh, PA (overnight mail).
