On December 14, 2007, the National Tax Free Fund acquired all of the assets and assumed all of the liabilities of each of the Florida Tax Free Trust, Michigan Tax Free Trust, Minnesota Tax Free Fund, Texas Tax Free Fund, and Washington Tax Free Fund (collectively, the "Acquired Funds"). As a result of these reorganizations, the Acquired Funds were terminated and shareholders of the Acquired Fund became shareholders of the National Tax Free Fund.

Q. What were the overall market conditions during the six months ended March 31, 2008?
A: The fixed-income market experienced severe volatility during the six-month period ended March 31, 2008. The fallout from the subprime mortgage crisis continued to hit bonds during the period, and, as a result, lower-rated securities saw their yields increase. For the Treasury market, short-term rates fell by a greater amount than did longer-term rates, and, consequently, the yield curve steepened.
Short-term rates fell, partly in response to policy moves made by the Federal Reserve Board (the Fed). In response to liquidity problems, the Fed initiated several moves. First, the Fed cut the fed funds rate five times during the period. The fed funds rate stood at 2.25% by March 31, 2008. Second, the Fed instituted a Term Auction Facility to give banks (those in good financial condition) access to short-term loans. Finally, on March 16, the Fed said it would allow big investment banks to borrow Treasury securities in exchange for a range of investment-grade debt securities.
Worries about a U.S. recession hurt the corporate bond sector. In addition, a rising percentage of banks reported that they were tightening their lending standards for commercial and industrial loans. Investor preference for higher-quality bonds could be seen in the trends in corporate yields. Yields on 'AAA' rated bonds fell during the period, while yields on 'BAA' rated bonds rose.
Investors also grew worried about the viability of bond insurers. Monoline insurers saw their 'AAA' ratings under pressure because they branched out from their core business of insuring municipal bonds into insuring pools of mortgage debts. One of the large bond insurers, FGIC, was downgraded, while two of the other large ones, MBIA and Ambac (Ambac Financial Group), were able to put in place plans to raise sufficient capital to maintain their ratings.
In addition to the bond insurers, the municipal bond market also experienced severe dislocations that resulted in poor relative performance. Yields on short-term municipal bonds fell and longer-term yields rose, resulting in a steeper yield curve. Issuance for the six months was lower than the volume posted a year earlier.
One striking development during the six-month period was that municipal bonds rose to yields considerably higher than comparable Treasuries.
Q. How did each Fund perform during the six-month period ended March 31, 2008?
A: (Please see Table 1 for the relative performance of each Fund.)

Q. What were the most significant factors affecting performance?
A: The most significant factors affecting each Fund's performance were as follows:
National Tax Free Fund
The National Tax Free Fund underperformed its benchmark during the six months ended March 31, 2008. Detracting from performance were lower-rated ('BBB' or lower) and non-rated bonds. Longer-term bonds also detracted from performance as the yield curve steepened with the Fed's rate cuts having a positive impact upon short-maturity bonds. Pre-refunded bonds5 contributed positively to performance owing to both their high quality and short maturities.
Intermediate Tax Free Fund
The Intermediate Tax Free Fund underperformed its benchmark during the six-month period. Bonds issued by California detracted from performance due to relatively higher supply. Although lower-rated bonds underperformed, the Fund did,
3
however, find some attractive opportunities to add to the lower-rated holdings. The Fund benefited from the positive performance on the lower end of the curve. In particular, securities maturing between two and seven years contributed positively to performance. As a reaction to the Fed's rate cuts, longer-term bonds caused inferior performance, so the Fund benefited from the shorter holdings. A heavy weighting of 'AAA' rated bonds also contributed to performance, as did pre-refunded bonds, which are very high quality.
High Yield Municipal
Bond Fund
The High Yield Municipal Bond Fund underperformed its benchmark during the six-month period. Performance was hurt by its overweight to the healthcare sector and its holdings of long-maturity bonds. Healthcare bonds underperformed. In addition, the Fund had an overweight to long-maturity bonds due to the high income and long-term return potential of these bonds. When rates rise and liquidity premiums increase, longer bonds underperform, as they did for the Fund during this time period. The Fund maintained, and actually was able to increase, its income stream during this time period, which added to performance.
California Tax Free Fund
The California Tax Free Fund underperformed its benchmark during the six-month period. In the first half of the fiscal year, the portfolio's weightings in lower-rated bonds and bonds with maturities longer than 10 years negatively affected performance, as during the time period the yield curve steepened and credit spreads widened. The portfolio benefited from its allocation to pre-refunded bonds (its second largest sector weighting), which posted positive returns during the time period.
Debt issued by the State of California is currently rated 'A1' by Moody's and 'A+' by Standard & Poor's. These ratings are based on the current and projected health of California's large, varied, and wealthy economy. California's per capita income level for 2007 was 107.5% of the national average. Also, the state's pension system funding ratio has a better-than-average funding ratio of approximately 88%.
While the state's outlook remains stable, California's economy is currently slowing. This change is primarily due to a decline in tax revenues caused by the impact of the national housing downturn. For the first two months of 2008, actual tax revenues were 7% below forecasted revenues. Sales of single-family detached residential homes decreased more than 33% in 2007. For the 12 months ended January 2008, construction permits for new homes declined nearly 30%. The state's revenues for fiscal 2008 are projected to be $4.2 billion lower than budgeted. A recent special session of the state legislature enacted measures to offset this shortfall, including $3.3 billion of deficit bond proceeds and a variety of midyear cuts and transfers.
4
California also is working to overcome state constitutional structural impediments (including a two-thirds legislative vote requirement for state budget passage) that make it difficult to pass its budget on time. As a result, the governor signed the 2008 fiscal year budget 55 days late. He has proposed a constitutional amendment that will address some of these issues.
While still manageable, the state's debt per capita of $1,581 has nearly doubled over the past five years. Moreover, the state's debt level is expected to increase significantly in the coming years. California voters approved $42.7 billion in various-purpose general obligation (GO) bonds in 2006. In addition, the state has more than $72 billion of authorized but unissued long-term debt, and its current budget proposed the issuance of another $48.1 billion in bonds.
Connecticut Tax Free Fund
The Connecticut Tax Free Fund underperformed its benchmark during the six-month period. The significant rise in longer-term municipal interest rates meant a drop in the value of longer-term bonds, which detracted from the Fund's performance. In addition, lower-quality bonds were added to the Fund, to take advantage of the rise of their yields over the course of the six-month period. The duration of the Fund lengthened.
Debt issued by the State of Connecticut is currently rated 'Aa3' by Moody's and 'AA' by Standard & Poor's. These ratings are based on healthy revenue performance, operating surpluses, and rising reserve levels, which reached nearly $1.4 billion at the end of fiscal year 2007. The state ended fiscal year 2007 with a budget surplus of $1.1 billion.
Connecticut has the highest per capita income in the United States, 139% of the national average. The state's economy is primarily driven by insurance, aerospace, shipbuilding, instruments, and business services. Connecticut employment gains of 1% in 2007 were on par with the nation. The state has experienced strong growth in personal income taxes – 12% over the past four fiscal years – and business taxes, both exceeding budget requirements.
Connecticut's pension funds are among the lowest funded of all states. At fiscal year-end 2006, the State Employees' Retirement Fund (SERS) reported a funding ratio of 53.2%, or $7.9 billion. For the same period, the Teachers' Retirement Fund had an unfunded liability of 60%, or $6.9 billion. A scheduled April 2008 offering of $2 billion in GO bonds for deposit into the Teachers' Retirement Fund will improve the pension fund's funded ratio to about 70%. Debt ratios in Connecticut are among the highest in the nation. However, due to the state's high income levels, they are manageable. Currently, the state has about $10.39 billion in net
5
direct GO debt, and its net debt per capita is $2,976.
Georgia Tax Free Trust
The Georgia Tax Free Trust underperformed its benchmark during the six-month period. As longer-term yields rose, the values of longer-term bonds fell, detracting from the Fund's performance. Lower-rated bonds also had a negative contribution to performance. But because the yields of lower-rated bonds rose during the six-month period, the Fund added to its holdings of lower-quality bonds in order to take advantage of the higher income stream.
Debt issued by the State of Georgia is currently rated 'Aaa' by Moody's and 'AAA' by Standard & Poor's. These strong ratings are based on the state's conservative fiscal management, a moderate debt burden, well-funded pensions, sound employment growth, continued revenue growth, and strong reserves. The state's varied economy has supported employment growth of 1.8% for the fiscal year ended September 2007, compared to 1.2% nationally. Strong job growth occurred in the government, education and health, and leisure and hospitality sectors.
Unaudited tax collection results for fiscal 2007 grew by 8.7% over fiscal 2006. Total tax revenues reached $17.5 billion, fueled by 10% growth in individual income tax and 3.6% growth in sales tax revenues. However, sales tax growth is slowing primarily due to a cooling housing market, rising gas prices, and reduced disposable income.
Georgia's pension system funding levels are well above the national average of 81.8%. The state's two largest pension systems are funded at 95% for the employees' retirement system and 97% for the Teacher's Retirement System, as of June 30, 2006. Georgia has $8.4 billion in outstanding debt. While the state's debt burden is growing, it is still moderate. Georgia has $916, compared to the national median of $787, of net tax-supported debt per capita.
Hawaii Tax Free Fund
The Hawaii Tax Free Fund underperformed its benchmark during the six-month period. In general, as the yield curve steepened during the first half of the fiscal year, bonds with term structures of 10 years and less posted positive returns. Longer maturities underperformed, as selling pressures overwhelmed demand, and they posted negative returns for the time period. For the first half of the fiscal year, the Fund outperformed its peer group, but underperformed the general bond market.
Debt issued by the State of Hawaii is currently rated 'Aa2' by Moody's and 'AA' by Standard & Poor's. These ratings are based on the state's historical fiscal conservatism; healthy revenue growth; a tourism-based, yet gradually diversifying economy; employment gains; and rapid amortization of existing debt.
6
For several years, Hawaii's solid tax revenue performance has resulted in strong revenue gains. State tax revenues grew 10.9% in 2006. On an audited basis, fiscal 2006 ended with a $298 million surplus. Fiscal 2006 was Hawaii's eighth straight year of job growth and tenth of revenue growth. In addition, Hawaii's unemployment rate is the lowest in the nation, at 2.3%. While tourism remains strong, federal defense spending also is a significant part of the state's economy. Military expansion plans and the privatization of military housing should benefit the state's near-term economy.
Hawaii's pension system funded ratio declined to 65% at the end of fiscal year 2006. The state has $4.3 billion in outstanding GO debt. The state's rate of per capita debt is $3,445 and 10% of personal income. However, this is somewhat inflated, since Hawaii issues all debt for its schools, which in most other states is provided for on the local level.
Missouri Tax Free Fund
The Missouri Tax Free Fund underperformed its benchmark during the six-month period. During the first half of the fiscal year, the portfolio's weightings in lower-rated bonds and bonds with maturities longer than 10 years negatively affected performance, as during the time period the yield curve steepened and credit spreads widened. The portfolio benefited from its allocation to pre-refunded bonds (its second largest sector weighting), which posted positive returns during the time period.
GO bonds issued by the State of Missouri are currently rated 'Aaa' by Moody's and 'AAA' by Standard & Poor's. These strong ratings are based on Missouri's solid and diverse economic base, excellent financial management, strong reserves in the form of a restricted budget reserve fund, and low debt burden. The state has a history of strong fiscal management controls.
Missouri's economy, which is diversified among various industry sectors, is anchored by the St. Louis and Kansas City metropolitan areas, home to 55% of the state's population. Missouri's geographic position, in the center of the United States, is advantageous for trade and manufacturing. The state's 2006 per capita personal income level is 90% of the nation's income level, just under the national average.
Missouri's fiscal year 2007 was exceptionally strong in terms of general fund revenue growth. The state's fiscal 2007 tax revenues were $89 million, or 5.2%, above budgeted levels. Net corporate income taxes increased 13.3%, net individual income taxes increased 7.4%, and net sales taxes decreased 0.3%. At the end of the period, Missouri's budget reserve fund was fully funded at $536 million.
Missouri's primary public retirement system has an overall funded ratio of 82% of actuarial requirements. Missouri is
7
constitutionally prohibited from issuing GO debt without voter approval. It has about $2.7 billion in outstanding GO debt, lease-backed, and gas highway bonds. Its per capita debt level is low at $467.
New Jersey Tax Free Fund
The New Jersey Tax Free Fund underperformed its benchmark for the six-month period, as the yield curve for 'AAA' rated bonds (a major weighting in the Fund) steepened by 51 basis points (bps). In addition, lower-rated bonds underperformed higher-quality bonds, detracting from performance. Even so, the Fund added to its holdings of lower-quality bonds, including healthcare bonds, in order to take advantage of their rise in yields during the six-month period.
GO debt issued by the State of New Jersey is currently rated 'Aa3' by Moody's and 'AA' by Standard & Poor's. These ratings are based, in part, on the state's high wealth and income levels, which lead the nation, as well as better-than-expected total revenue performance in fiscal 2007. New Jersey's economic base is strong and diverse, although its employment and income growth have been hindered by a slowing national economy and weakness in the real estate market. The state's fiscal profile continued to improve, with the state recording preliminary audited GAAP (generally accepted accounting principles) general fund reserves of 6.5% in fiscal 2007. However, New Jersey has a growing debt burden and unfunded pension liability.
New Jersey's current population is approximately 8.8 million. Personal income growth for 2006 was strong, at 6.4%. Personal income per capita in 2006 was $46,344, about 28% ahead of the nation's average. New Jersey's median income was $61,600, the highest in the nation. In 2006, New Jersey's average annual unemployment declined, to 4.6%. The state has felt the impact of the troubled national real estate market. By the middle of 2007, residential building permits fell to 26,000, down from 40,000 in 2005. Home prices also fell significantly.
Total state revenues for New Jersey grew to $30.4 billion in fiscal 2007, an increase of 9% from fiscal 2006. New Jersey raised its sales tax by 1% in fiscal 2007. This produced the majority of the fiscal 2007 increase in total revenues, increasing nearly $1.42 billion, or more than 20%, to $8.2 billion over fiscal 2006.
New Jersey's pension system for state employees had a funded ratio of just 75.3% in fiscal 2006 versus a national average of 82%. The state's debt ratios are high. In June 2007, New Jersey had $2.8 billion of GO debt and more than $24.6 billion of appropriation-backed debt obligations, including pension-funding bonds. Tax-supported debt rose in fiscal 2007 to $27.5 billion, up about 84% from 2002. In 2007, debt ratio per capita was about $3,300.
8
New York Tax Free Fund
The New York Tax Free Fund underperformed its benchmark during the six-month period. Longer-term and lower-quality bonds were the two sectors that most negatively affected Fund performance. Longer-term bonds were hurt by the sharp rise in the yield curve, as the yield on 'AAA' rated bonds (which comprise a significant weighting in the Fund) rose 51 bps over the six-month period. The Fund's maturity structure was shortened slightly as the Fund increased its holdings of bonds maturing between 19 and 24 years and reduced its holdings of bonds maturing between 25 and 30 years.
Debt issued by the State of New York is currently rated 'Aa3' by Moody's and 'AA' by Standard & Poor's. These ratings are based on the state's well-established trend of fiscal management transcending administrations; a diversified, mature, and wealthy state economy; a long track record of closing annual budget gaps; revenue underperformance in the current fiscal year; and an above-average dependence on income taxes. The state's estimated per capita personal income remains unchanged at $42,392, or 117% of the national average. However, according to the governor's 2008–2009 executive budget report, the national economic slowdown has had a significant effect on New York's current economy. Also, with 21.5% of the state's economy focused on financial activities, the nation's mortgage-backed secur ity crisis also has hurt New York.
In January 2008, the governor released the 2008–2009 executive budget, which estimates a decline in the General Fund total tax revenues for fiscal 2008, versus 2007. The proposed general ($56.7 billion), state ($87.8 billion), and all-funds ($124.3 billion) budgets for 2007–2008 all increased more than 5% from the revised forecast. The state anticipates a revenue shortfall for 2007 of $503 million from the enacted budget and a $96 million reduction in expenses.
Both of New York's primary pension funds, the New York State and Local Retirement System and the New York State Teachers' Retirement System, are well funded compared with those of other states. New York's debt levels are above average. According to an April 2007 Moody's report, New York ranked fifth in the country in terms of net tax-supported debt per capita, with debt burden as a percentage of personal income at 6.7%.
Pennsylvania Tax Free Trust
The Pennsylvania Tax Free Trust underperformed its benchmark during the six-month period, as the yield on 'AAA' rated bonds (the most significant holding of the Fund) spiked by 51 bps during the period. Longer-term bonds also detracted from the Fund's performance as the yield curve steepened and prices on long-term bonds fell. The Fund increased its holdings of healthcare and GO bonds.
9
Debt issued by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania is currently rated 'Aa2' by Moody's and 'AA' by Standard & Poor's. These ratings are based on the commonwealth's diverse economic base; wealth levels nearly on par with the nation; a responsive management team; and a significant reduction in available reserves. Pennsylvania's growth is positive, but slowing, and is similar to the level of growth in the national economy. Looking ahead, Pennsylvania's growth is expected to lag national growth. The commonwealth's unemployment rate in October 2007 was 4.5%, compared to the U.S. rate of 4.7%. Per capita income for 2006 was 101% of the national level.
Unaudited fiscal 2007 revenues exceeded estimates by $649 million, or 2.4%, totaling $27.19 billion, compared with $27.01 billion in total expenditures. Personal income tax grew 7.7% over 2006, while sales and use tax receipts grew 3.1% and corporate income tax grew 3.2%. The enacted 2008 budget totals $27.2 billion. This is a 3.2% increase over fiscal 2007, and only $100 million under the budget proposed by the governor. A $2 billion economic development stimulus package, and the implementation of gaming legislation for slot machines, could boost future growth.
Pennsylvania's State Employee's Retirement Fund (SERS) and the Public School Employees Retirement Fund (PSERS) are suitably funded, with 2007 funded ratios of 93% and 81%, respectively. Net tax-supported 2007 debt per capita for the commonwealth was moderate, at $852, versus $875 for the national median. The ratio of debt to personal income is 2.4%.

1 The Lipper Funds Average: Lipper, Inc. is a nationally recognized organization that reports on mutual fund total return performance and calculates fund rankings. Peer averages are based on universes of funds with similar investment objectives. Peer group averages include reinvested dividends and capital gains, if any, and exclude sales charges.
2 The Lehman Brothers Municipal Bond Index is a broad measure of the municipal bond market with maturities of at least one year. To be included in this index, bonds must have a minimum credit rating of at least Baa, an outstanding par value of at least $3 million, and be issued as part of a transaction of at least $50 million. Includes zero coupon bonds subject to the alternative minimum tax.
3 The Lehman Brothers 3-10 Year Insured Tax-Exempt Bond Index consists of insured tax-free municipal bonds ranging in maturity from 3–10 years.
4 The Lehman Brothers 85% High Yield/15% Investment Grade Municipal Bond Index is a total return benchmark designed for municipal portfolios, which contain both investment and non-investment-grade tax-exempt bonds.
5 Pre-refunded bonds are older, tax-free bonds that typically pay coupons higher than current market rates and that have been refinanced or "prepaid" by the proceeds of a second bond issue. The proceeds of this second issuance are used to "call" or pay off the original issue at its first call date. Until that time, the monies are held in escrow and are usually invested in U.S. Treasuries. As a result, pre-refunded bonds are generally deemed to have virtually no default risk. Typically, when a bond becomes pre-refunded it appreciates in value because of its higher credit quality and improved marketability.

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 the Period 10/1/07 – 3/31/08" 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. 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.

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. 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.

1. ORGANIZATION
Lord Abbett Municipal Income Fund, Inc. (the "Company") and Lord Abbett Municipal Income Trust (the "Trust") are registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "Act"), as open-end management investment companies. The Company was organized as a Maryland corporation on December 27, 1983. The Trust was organized as a Massachusetts business trust on September 11, 1991 and was reorganized as a Delaware statutory trust on July 22, 2002.
The Company consists of the following seven portfolios and their respective classes (separately, a "Fund" and collectively, the "Funds"):
Funds | | Classes offered | |
Lord Abbett National Tax-Free Income Fund ("National") | | A,B,C,F,I and P | |
Lord Abbett California Tax-Free Income Fund ("California") | | A,C,F and P | |
Lord Abbett Connecticut Tax-Free Income Fund ("Connecticut") | | A,F and P | |
Lord Abbett Hawaii Tax-Free Income Fund ("Hawaii") | | A,F and P | |
Lord Abbett Missouri Tax-Free Income Fund ("Missouri") | | A,F and P | |
Lord Abbett New Jersey Tax-Free Income Fund ("New Jersey") | | A,F and P | |
Lord Abbett New York Tax-Free Income Fund ("New York") | | A,C,F and P | |
The Trust consists of the following four portfolios and their respective classes (separately, a "Fund" and collectively, the "Funds"):
Funds | | Classes offered | |
Lord Abbett Intermediate Tax-Free Fund ("Intermediate") | | A,B,C,F and P | |
Georgia Series ("Georgia") | | A,F and P | |
Lord Abbett High Yield Municipal Bond Fund ("High Yield") | | A,B,C,F,I and P | |
Pennsylvania Series ("Pennsylvania") | | A,F and P | |
Each Fund is non-diversified as defined under the Act, except for National and Intermediate. As of the date of this report, only Intermediate and High Yield have issued Class P shares, and National and High Yield have been authorized to issue but have not issued Class I shares.
The investment objective of each Fund (except for High Yield) is to seek the maximum amount of interest income exempt from Federal income tax as is consistent with reasonable risk. Each Fund (except for National, Intermediate and High Yield) 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. The investment objective of High Yield is to seek a high level of income exempt from Federal income tax. New York also seeks as high a level of interest income exempt from New York City personal income tax as is consistent with reasonable risk.
Each class 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 the Classes B, C, F, I and P shares, although there may be a contingent deferred sales charge ("CDSC") as follows: certain redemptions of Class A shares made within 12 months following certain purchases made without a sales charge; Class B shares redeemed before the sixth anniversary of purchase; and Class C shares redeemed before the first anniversary of purchase. Class B shares will convert to Class A shares on the eighth anniversary of the original purchase of Class B shares.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and
173
Notes to Financial Statements (unaudited)(continued)
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. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(a) Investment Valuation–Securities are valued at the mean between the bid and asked prices on the basis of prices supplied by independent pricing services, which reflect broker/dealer supplied valuations and electronic data processing techniques. Exchange traded options and futures contracts are valued at the last sale price in the market where they are principally traded. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined by management and approved in good faith by the Board of Directors/Trustees. Short-term securities with 60 days or less remaining to maturity are valued using the amortized cost method, which approximates current 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. Discounts are accreted and premiums are amortized using the effective interest method. Investment income is allocated to each class of shares based upon the relative proportion of net assets at the beginning of the day.
(d) Federal 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 Federal income tax provision is required.
(e) Expenses–Expenses incurred by the Company and Trust that do not specifically relate to an individual fund are generally allocated to the funds within the Company and Trust on a pro-rata basis. 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. Class A, B, C, F and P 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 for bona fide hedging purposes including hedging against changes in interest rates and securities prices. 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 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. Generally, open futures contracts are marked to market for Federal income tax purposes at fiscal year-end. As of March 31, 2008, each Fund except Intermediate had open futures contracts.
174
Notes to Financial Statements (unaudited)(continued)
(g) When-Issued Municipal Bonds–Each Fund may purchase new issues of municipal bonds, which are generally offered on a when-issued basis, with delivery and payment normally taking place approximately one month after the purchase date.
(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 a Fund which made the transfer or to affiliates of the Fund. Each Fund's transfer of the municipal securities to a TOB does not qualify for sale treatment under Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 140 "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities," therefore the municipal securities deposited into a TOB are presented in a Fund's Schedule of Investments and the proceeds from the transactions are reported as a liability for trust certificates on the Statement 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 f loating rate certificates to tender their certificates at par and (2) to transfer a corresponding share of the municipal securities from the TOB to the Fund. At March 31, 2008, the aggregate value of the underlying municipal securities transferred to TOBs, the liability for trust certificates and the range of interest rates for such certificates were:
Fund | | Liability for Trust Certificates | | Interest Rate or Range of Interest Rates | | Underlying Municipal Bonds Transferred to TOBs | |
National | | $ | 50,306,332 | | | 2.13% - 3.21% | | $ | 96,717,471 | | |
California | | | 17,900,000 | | | 2.13% - 2.77% | | | 35,890,614 | | |
Hawaii | | | 5,040,000 | | | 4.04% | | | 10,179,590 | | |
Missouri | | | 5,000,000 | | | 2.24% | | | 10,125,100 | | |
New York | | | 15,001,430 | | | 2.23% - 2.29% | | | 30,122,980 | | |
Georgia | | | 6,270,000 | | | 2.24% | | | 12,587,777 | | |
High Yield | | | 148,812,000 | | | 2.13% - 4.04% | | | 266,967,416 | | |
Pennsylvania | | | 5,690,000 | | | 2.29% | | | 11,565,153 | | |
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 net asset values per share.
175
Notes to Financial Statements (unaudited)(continued)
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 the secured borrowings deemed to have occurred for accounting purposes.
3. MANAGEMENT FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES

4. DISTRIBUTIONS AND CAPITAL LOSS CARRYFORWARDS
Dividends from net investment income, if any, are declared daily and paid monthly. Taxable net realized gains from investment transactions, reduced by allowable capital loss carryforwards, if
178
Notes to Financial Statements (unaudited)(continued)
any, are declared and distributed to shareholders at least annually. 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 amount 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 accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. 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 the distributions paid during the six months ended March 31, 2008 and the fiscal year ended September 30, 2007 were as follows:

6. DIRECTORS'/TRUSTEES' REMUNERATION
The Company's and Trust's officers and the two Directors/Trustees who are associated with Lord Abbett do not receive any compensation from the Company or Trust for serving in such capacities. Outside Directors'/Trustees' 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 outside Directors/Trustees under which outside Directors/Trustees must defer receipt of a portion of, and may elect to defer receipt of an additional portion of, their 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'/Trustees' fees on the Statements of Operations and in Directors'/Trustees' fees payable on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities and are not deductible for U.S. Federal income tax purposes until such amounts are paid.
7. EXPENSE REDUCTIONS
The Company and Trust have entered into agreements with the Funds' transfer agent and custodian, whereby credits realized as a result of uninvested cash balances are used to reduce a portion of each Fund's expenses.

8. LINE OF CREDIT
High Yield, along with certain other funds managed by Lord Abbett, has available a $250,000,000 unsecured revolving credit facility ("Facility") from a consortium of banks, to be used for temporary or emergency purposes as an additional source of liquidity to fund redemptions of investor shares. Any borrowings under this Facility will bear interest at current market rates as defined in the agreement. The fee for this Facility is an annual rate of .08%. As of March 31, 2008, there were no loans outstanding pursuant to this Facility nor was the Facility utilized at any time during the six months ended March 31, 2008.
9. CUSTODIAN AND ACCOUNTING AGENT
State Street Bank & Trust Company ("SSB") is the Company's and Trust's custodian and accounting agent. SSB performs custodial, accounting and recordkeeping functions relating to portfolio transactions and calculating each Fund's NAV.
10. INVESTMENT RISKS
Each Fund's performance and the 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 inverse floaters than for short-term bonds. As a result, the Funds, which tend to invest in longer-term bonds and inverse floaters to a greater degree than some municipal bond funds, normally will have greater market risk than those funds.
Additional risks that could reduce each Fund's performance or increase volatility include call risk, governmental risk, legislative risk, management risk and credit risk. 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 Yield invests a significant portion of its assets in such bonds. The National Fund may invest up to 35% and all other Funds may invest up to 20% in such bonds. Some 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 the Fund. Junk bonds are considered predominantly speculative by traditional investment standards. In addition, the market for lower rated municipal bonds generally is less liquid than the market for higher rated bonds, subjecting them to greater price fluctuations which could result in losses.
Each Fund (except National and Intermediate) is non-diversified, which means that it may invest a greater portion of its assets in a single issuer than a diversified fund. Thus, it may be exposed to greater risk.
Because each Fund other than National, Intermediate and High Yield, focuses on a particular state or territory, each 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, such as National, Intermediate and High Yield. These factors may, for example, include economic or political developments, erosion of the tax base and the possibility of credit problems. In addition, downturns or
182
Notes to Financial Statements (unaudited)(continued)
developments in the U.S. economy or in foreign economies or significant world events may harm the performance of each Fund, and may do so disproportionately as a result of the corresponding disproportionate impact of such occurrences on particular state, territory, or local economies.
Each Fund (except for High Yield) may invest up to 20% of its net assets in private activity bonds (sometimes called "AMT paper"). High Yield may invest up to 100% of its net assets in AMT paper. The credit quality of such bonds usually is directly related to the credit standing of the private user of the facilities.
Each Fund may invest no more than 20% of its net assets in TOB Residuals, except High Yield, which may invest of to 100% 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 ("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 provide interest payments that are higher than securities similar to the specific fixed-rate security, but their values also rise faster th an 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, inverse floaters and similar transactions. These instruments may be leveraged so that small changes may produce disproportionate and substantial losses to the 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.

12. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In June 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Interpretation 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes – an interpretation of FASB Statement 109 ("FIN 48"). FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for income taxes by prescribing the minimum recognition threshold a tax position must meet before being recognized in the financial statements. Effective March 31, 2008, the Funds adopted FIN 48. The adoption of FIN 48 has not resulted in a material impact on the Funds' net assets, results of operations and financial statement disclosures. The Funds file U.S. Federal and various state tax returns. No income tax returns are currently under examination. The Funds' tax returns remain open for examination for the years ended September 30, 2004 through September 30, 2007.
In September 2006, FASB issued FASB Statement No. 157, Fair Value Measurements ("SFAS 157"), and is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Management is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of SFAS 157 will have on each Fund's financial statement disclosures.
In March 2008, FASB issued FASB Statement No. 161, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities ("SFAS 161"). SFAS 161 is intended to improve financial reporting about derivative instruments and hedging activities by requiring enhanced disclosures to enable investors to better understand their effects on an entity's financial position, financial performance and cash flows. SFAS 161 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008. Management is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of SFAS 161 will have on the Funds' financial statement disclosures.

Approval of Advisory Contracts
At meetings held on December 12 and 13, 2007, the Board of the Company, including all of the Directors who are not interested persons of the Company or Lord Abbett, and the Board of the Trust, including all of the Trustees who are not interested persons of the Trust or Lord Abbett, considered whether to approve the continuation of the existing management agreements between each of their respective Funds and Lord Abbett. In addition to the materials the Boards had reviewed throughout the course of the year, each Board received materials relating to the management agreement before the meeting and had the opportunity to ask questions and request further information in connection with its consideration. Each Board also took into account its familiarity with Lord Abbett gained through its previous meetings and discussions, and the examination of the portfolio management teams conducted by members of the Contracts Committee during the year.
The materials received by each Board as to each of its respective Funds included, but were not limited to, (1) information provided by Lipper Inc. regarding the investment performance of the Fund compared to the investment performance of one or more groups of funds with substantially similar investment objectives (the "performance universe") and to the investment performance of an appropriate securities index (if such an index existed), for various time periods each ended September 30, 2007, (2) information on the effective management fee rates and expense ratios for one or more groups of funds with similar objectives and of similar size (the "peer expense group"), (3) sales and redemption information for the Fund, (4) information regarding Lord Abbett's financial condition, (5) an analysis of the relative profitability of the management agreement to Lord Abbett, (6) information regarding the distribution arrangements of the Fund, and (7) in formation regarding the personnel and other resources devoted by Lord Abbett to managing the Fund.
Investment Management Services Generally. Each Board considered the investment management services provided by Lord Abbett to each of its respective Funds, including investment research, portfolio management, and trading, and Lord Abbett's commitment to compliance with all relevant legal requirements. Each Board also observed that Lord Abbett was solely engaged in the investment management business and accordingly did not experience the conflicts of interest resulting from being engaged in other lines of business. Each Board noted that Lord Abbett did not use brokerage commissions to purchase third-party research. Each 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.
Investment Performance and Compliance. Each Board reviewed the investment performance of each of its Funds in relation to that of the performance universe, both in terms of total return and in terms of other statistical measures.
The Board of the Company observed that the investment performance of the Class A shares of the National Tax Free Fund was in the fifth quintile of its performance universe for the nine-month and one-year periods, in the third quintile for the three-year and five-year periods, and in the second quintile for the ten-year period. The Board also observed that the investment performance was below that of the Lipper General Municipal Debt Index for each of those periods.
The Board of the Company observed that the investment performance of the Class A shares of the California Tax Free Fund was in the fifth quintile of its performance universe for the nine-month period, in the fourth quintile for the one-year, three-year, and five-year periods, and

The Board of the Trust observed that the investment performance of the Class A shares of the Hawaii Tax Free Fund was in the fourth quintile of its performance universe for the nine-month and five-year periods, in the third quintile for the one-year and ten-year periods, and in the first quintile for the three-year period.

The Board also observed that the investment performance was below that of the Lipper Pennsylvania Municipal Debt Funds Index for each of those periods.
The Board of the Trust noted that the Intermediate Tax Free Fund had changed its investment approach in 2007 and as a result Lipper had changed its classification from insured municipal debt funds to intermediate municipal debt funds. Accordingly, the Board considered the operations of the Fund in relationship to two different performance universes and expense peer
192
groups, the first composed of intermediate municipal debt funds and the second composed of insured municipal debt funds. The Board also noted that the Fund had commenced investment operations in June 2003 and thus it was not possible to reach definitive conclusions regarding its investment performance. The Board observed that the investment performance of the Class A shares of the Fund was in the second quintile of the first performance universe for the nine-month and three-year periods and in the first quintile for the one-year period. The Board also observed that the investment performance was above that of the Lipper Intermediate Municipal Funds Index for the nine-month and one-year periods and below that of the Index for the three-year period. The Board also observed that the investment performance was in the first quintile of the second performance universe for the nine-month and one-year periods and in the fourth quintile for the three - -year period. The Board also observed that the investment performance was above that of the Lipper Insured Municipal Fund Index for the nine-month and one-year periods and below that of the Index for the three-year period.
The Board of the Trust noted that the High Yield Municipal Income Fund commenced investment operations in December 2004 and thus it was not possible to reach definitive conclusions regarding its investment performance. The Board observed that the investment performance of the Class A shares of the Fund was in the fifth quintile of its performance universe for the nine-month period, in the fourth quintile for the one-year period, and in the second quintile for the period since inception. The Board also observed that the investment performance was below that of the Lipper High Yield Municipal Debt Fund Index for the nine-month and one-year periods and above that of the Index for the period since inception. The Board also noted that the Fund invests to a greater degree in below investment grade bonds than most or all of its competitors, which contributed to the recent underperformance.
Lord Abbett's Personnel and Methods. Each Board considered the qualifications of the personnel providing investment management services to the Fund, in light of its investment objective and discipline. Among other things, each Board considered the size, experience, and turnover rates of Lord Abbett's investment management staff, Lord Abbett's investment methodology and philosophy, and Lord Abbett's approach to recruiting, training, and retaining investment management personnel. The Boards noted that Lord Abbett had hired Daniel Solender in 2006 to head up Lord Abbett's municipal investing activities. Each Board determined that Lord Abbett had the expertise and resources to manage each of the Funds effectively.

Expenses. As to each of their respective Funds, each Board considered the expense levels of the Fund and the expense levels of the peer expense group. It also considered the amount and nature of the fees paid by shareholders.
As to the National Tax Free Fund, the Board of the Company observed the shareholders of five other Funds investing in municipal bonds had voted to approve the reorganization of each such Fund into the National Tax Free Fund.

Profitability.

Each Board concluded that the allocation methodology had a reasonable basis and was appropriate.

Each Board also considered the profits realized from other businesses of Lord Abbett, which may benefit from or be related to the business of the Funds.

Each Board recognized that Lord Abbett's profitability was a factor in enabling it to attract and retain qualified investment management personnel to provide services to the Funds. Each Board noted that Lord Abbett's profitability had increased in recent years, in part due to an increase in assets under management, but concluded that Lord Abbett's profitability overall and as to the Funds was not excessive.
197
Economies of Scale. As to each of their respective Funds, each Board considered whether there had been any economies of scale in managing the Fund, whether the Fund had appropriately benefited from any such economies of scale, and whether there was potential for realization of any further economies of scale. Each Board concluded that the existing advisory fee schedules, with breakpoints in the level of the advisory fees, adequately addressed any economies of scale in managing each of their respective Funds.
Other Benefits to Lord Abbett. As to each of their respective Funds, each Board considered the character and amount of fees paid by the Fund and the Fund's shareholders to Lord Abbett and Lord Abbett Distributor for services other than investment advisory services. Each 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 the Fund. Each Board observed that Lord Abbett 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 from the Funds, and receives a portion of the sales charges on sales and redemptions of some classes of shares. In addition, each Board observed that L ord Abbett accrues certain benefits for its business of providing investment advice to clients other than the Lord Abbett Funds, but that that business also benefits the Funds. The Board also noted that Lord Abbett, as disclosed in the prospectuses of the Funds, has entered into revenue sharing arrangements with certain entities that distribute shares of the Funds.
Alternative Arrangements. As to each of their respective Funds, each Board considered whether, instead of approving the continuation of the management 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.
In considering whether to approve the continuation of the management agreement, each Board did not identify any single factor as paramount or controlling. This summary does not discuss in detail all matters considered. After considering all of the relevant factors, each Board unanimously found that continuation of the existing management agreements was in the best interests of the Funds and their shareholders and voted unanimously to approve the continuation of the management agreements.
