Columbia Intermediate Bond Fund
Dear Shareholders,
U.S. equities had a strong first quarter
Similar to 2012, equities once again were the best performing asset class in the first quarter of 2013. The S&P 500 Index reached an all-time closing high on the last trading day of the quarter and pushed through its October 2007 peak. Although global equities have performed well year-to-date, there is significant performance divergence among regions. In local currency terms, Japanese equities were the best performing developed market globally, and U.S. stocks outperformed most other global equity markets. European equities rose in the first quarter but trailed U.S. stocks and had a turbulent March, as investors were reminded of instability in the eurozone with news of a banking crisis in Cyprus.
Although all 10 sectors of the S&P 500 Index delivered positive returns, this was a rally led by defensive stocks such as those in health care, consumer staples and utilities. Materials and technology stocks were the weakest sectors.
High yield leads fixed income; most sectors flat to down
The fixed-income markets lagged equities with modest, single-digit returns coming from municipals and high-yield sectors in the United States. Most government and investment-grade credit sectors were roughly flat to down for the first quarter of 2013. Emerging market bonds were the biggest disappointment with single-digit losses.
Columbia Management to begin delivering summary prospectuses
Each Columbia fund is required to update its prospectus on an annual basis. Beginning with June 2013 prospectus updates, shareholders of Columbia retail mutual funds will start to receive a summary prospectus, rather than the full length (statutory) mutual fund prospectus they have received in the past.
Each fund's summary prospectus will include the following key information:
> Investment objective
> Fee and expense table
> Portfolio turnover rate information
> Principal investment strategies, principal risks and performance information
> Management information
> Purchase and sale information
> Tax information
> Financial intermediary compensation information
Each fund's statutory prospectus will contain additional information about the fund and its risks. Both the statutory and summary prospectus will be updated each year, and will be available at columbiamanagement.com.

Manager Discussion of Fund Performance
For the 12-month period that ended April 30, 2013, the Fund's Class A shares returned 5.52% excluding sales charges. The Fund's return was higher than the 3.68% return of its benchmark, the Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, for the same 12-month period. Selected overweights in sectors outside the Treasury market helped the Fund outperform its benchmark.
U.S. Economy: Growth in the Slow Lane
Europe's general economic woes, a financial crisis in Cyprus and U.S. struggles to avoid a fiscal cliff of tax increases and various spending cuts (commonly referred to as the sequester) weighed on the global economy throughout the 12-month period ended April 30, 2013. Late in the period, the sequester clouded consumer confidence in the United States, even though it has had little material impact on the economy to date. However, a decrease in the U.S. unemployment rate early in 2013, steady manufacturing activity and a rebound in the housing market are encouraging signs that growth has broadened in recent months. Pent-up demand, low mortgage rates and an improving labor market have lifted home sales. Even so, there has been no real improvement in the overall pace of economic growth since the current cycle of recovery began in 2009. Household income growth is practically nonexistent, and household spending has come under pressure after the expiration of the payroll tax cut. Against this backdrop, U.S. investors bid prices higher on stocks and other volatile assets as central banks continued to pour liquidity into key markets.
Risk Taking Rewarded for Fixed-Income Investors
Within fixed-income, investors were rewarded for venturing away from the safety of the Treasury market. In this environment, the Fund benefited from its investments in high quality commercial mortgage-backed securities (CMBS), corporate bonds and high-yield bonds, all of which outperformed lower-yielding, lower risk securities. High-yield bonds are not represented in the benchmark index, which gave the Fund a relative advantage in an environment that favored riskier assets. The Fund was correspondingly underweight in underperforming sectors, such as Treasury securities and agency mortgage-backed securities, which also benefited relative returns.
During the period, we noted an improvement in appraisals in commercial real estate and responded by taking a more aggressive stance with the Fund's positions in CMBS. Specifically, we moved down the capital structure to invest in junior bonds whose risk profiles we believed were improving in line with the underlying markets. This move aided overall returns.
Not all decisions had a positive impact on results. Late last summer, we trimmed the Fund's high-yield investments (from approximately 7.0% to 4.5% of net assets), and this move detracted from returns when the high-yield group continued to rally. The Fund's overall duration, a measure of interest rate sensitivity, was slightly shorter than the benchmark, which detracted somewhat from relative results. The Fund's shorter duration meant it did not benefit as much as the index when yields declined. (Bond prices and yields move in opposite directions.)
Looking Ahead
We intend to continue to seek high quality investments and adjust risk exposure in accordance with prevailing valuations and economic trends. We are mindful

Manager Discussion of Fund Performance (continued)
that consensus forecasts now call for annual economic growth in the 2% range, and our portfolio positioning is currently consistent with that outlook. In particular, as the riskier sectors of the market have rallied, their yield advantage over Treasury securities has compressed. Should we see further erosion of the yield advantage, we would seek to adopt a more conservative framework.

Understanding Your Fund's Expenses
(Unaudited)
As an investor, you incur two types of costs. There are transaction costs, which generally include sales charges on purchases and may include redemption fees. There are also ongoing costs, which generally include management fees, distribution and service (Rule 12b-1) fees, and other fund expenses. The following information is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to help you compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
Analyzing Your Fund's Expenses
To illustrate these ongoing costs, we have provided examples and calculated the expenses paid by investors in each share class of the Fund during the period. The actual and hypothetical information in the table is based on an initial investment of $1,000 at the beginning of the period indicated and held for the entire period. Expense information is calculated two ways and each method provides you with different information. The amount listed in the "Actual" column is calculated using the Fund's actual operating expenses and total return for the period. You may use the Actual information, together with the amount 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 results by the expenses paid during the period under the Actual column. The amount listed in the "Hypothetical" column assumes a 5% annual rate of return before expenses (which is not the Fund's actual return) and then applies the Fund's actual expense ratio for the period to the hypothetical return. You should not use the hypothetical account values and expenses to estimate either your actual account balance at the end of the period or the expenses you paid during the period. See "Compare With Other Funds" below for details on how to use the hypothetical data.
Compare With Other Funds
Since all mutual funds are required to include the same hypothetical calculations about expenses in shareholder reports, you can use this information to compare the ongoing cost of investing in the Fund with other funds. To do so, compare the hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of other funds. As you compare hypothetical examples of other funds, it is important to note that hypothetical examples are meant to highlight the ongoing costs of investing in a fund only and do not reflect any transaction costs, such as sales charges, or redemption or exchange fees. Therefore, the hypothetical calculations are useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. If transaction costs were included in these calculations, your costs would be higher.

Expenses paid during the period are equal to the annualized expense ratio for each class as indicated above, multiplied by the average account value over the period and then multiplied by the number of days in the Fund's most recent fiscal half year and divided by 365.
Expenses do not include fees and expenses incurred indirectly by the Fund from the underlying funds in which the Fund may invest (also referred to as "acquired funds"), including affiliated and non-affiliated pooled investment vehicles (including mutual funds and exchange-traded funds).
Had Columbia Management Investment Advisers, LLC and/or certain of its affiliates not waived/reimbursed certain fees and expenses, account value at the end of the period would have been reduced.

Fair Value Measurements
Generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) require disclosure regarding the inputs and valuation techniques used to measure fair value and any changes in valuation inputs or techniques. In addition, investments shall be disclosed by major category.
The Fund categorizes its fair value measurements according to a three-level hierarchy that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by prioritizing that the most observable input be used when available. Observable inputs are those that market participants would use in pricing an investment based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity. Unobservable inputs are those that reflect the Fund's assumptions about the information market participants would use in pricing an investment. An investment's level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is deemed significant to the asset or liability's fair value measurement. The input levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with investments at that level. For example, certain U.S. government securities are generally high quality and liquid, however, they are reflected as Level 2 because the inputs used to determine fair value may not always be quoted prices in an active market.
Fair value inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:
> Level 1 — Valuations based on quoted prices for investments in active markets that the Fund has the ability to access at the measurement date (including NAV for open-end mutual funds). Valuation adjustments are not applied to Level 1 investments.
> Level 2 — Valuations based on other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risks, etc.).
> Level 3 — Valuations based on significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund's own assumptions and judgment in determining the fair value of investments).
Inputs that are used in determining fair value of an investment may include price information, credit data, volatility statistics, and other factors. These inputs can be either observable or unobservable. The availability of observable inputs can vary between investments, and is affected by various factors such as the type of investment, and the volume and level of activity for that investment or similar investments in the marketplace. The inputs will be considered by the Investment Manager, along with any other relevant factors in the calculation of an investment's fair value. The Fund uses prices and inputs that are current as of the measurement date, which may include periods of market dislocations. During these periods, the availability of prices and inputs may be reduced for many investments. This condition could cause an investment to be reclassified between the various levels within the hierarchy.
Investments falling into the Level 3 category are primarily supported by quoted prices from brokers and dealers participating in the market for those investments. However, these may be classified as Level 3 investments due to lack of market transparency and corroboration to support these quoted prices. Additionally, valuation models may be used as the pricing source for any remaining investments classified as Level 3. These models may rely on one or more significant unobservable inputs and/or significant assumptions by the Investment Manager. Inputs used in valuations may include, but are not limited to, financial statement analysis, capital account balances, discount rates and estimated cash flows, and comparable company data.
Under the direction of the Fund's Board of Trustees (the Board), the Investment Manager's Valuation Committee (the Committee) is responsible for carrying out the valuation procedures approved by the Board. The Committee consists of voting and non-voting members from various groups within the Investment Manager's organization, including operations and accounting, trading and investments, compliance, risk management and legal.
The Committee meets at least monthly to review and approve valuation matters, which may include a description of specific valuation determinations, data regarding pricing information received from approved pricing vendors and brokers and the results of Board-approved valuation control policies and procedures (the Policies). The Policies address, among other things, instances when market quotations are readily available, including recommendations of third party pricing vendors and a determination of appropriate pricing methodologies; events that require specific valuation determinations and assessment of fair value techniques; securities with a potential for stale pricing, including those that are illiquid, restricted, or in default; and the effectiveness of third-party pricing vendors, including periodic reviews of vendors. The Committee meets more frequently, as needed, to discuss additional valuation matters, which may include the need to review back-testing results, review time-sensitive information or approve related valuation actions. The Committee reports to the Board, with members of the Committee meeting with the Board at each of its regularly scheduled meetings to discuss valuation matters and actions during the period, similar to those described earlier.
For investments categorized as Level 3, the Committee monitors information similar to that described above, which may include: (i) data specific to the issuer or comparable issuers, (ii) general market or specific sector news and (iii) quoted prices and specific or similar security transactions. The Committee considers this data and any changes from prior periods in order to assess the reasonableness of observable and unobservable inputs, any assumptions or internal models used to value those securities and changes in fair value. This data is also used to corroborate, when available, information received from approved pricing vendors and brokers. Various factors impact the frequency of monitoring this information (which may occur as often as daily). However, the Committee may determine that changes to inputs, assumptions and models are not required as a result of the monitoring procedures performed.

The Fund's assets assigned to the Level 2 input category are generally valued using the market approach, in which a security's value is determined through reference to prices and information from market transactions for similar or identical assets.
Financial assets were transferred from Level 2 to Level 1 as the market for these assets was deemed to be active during the period and fair values were consequently obtained using quoted prices for identical assets rather than being based upon other observable market inputs as of period end, April 30, 2013.
The following table shows transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy:
Transfers In | | Transfers Out | |
Level 1 ($) | | Level 2 ($) | | Level 1 ($) | | Level 2 ($) | |
| 15,900,850 | | | | — | | | | — | | | | 15,900,850 | | |
Transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 are determined based on the fair value at the beginning of the period for security positions held throughout the period.
Derivative instruments are valued at unrealized appreciation (depreciation).
The following table is a reconciliation of Level 3 assets for which significant observable and/or unobservable inputs were used to determine fair value.

(a) Change in unrealized appreciation relating to securities held at April 30, 2013 was $346,284, which is comprised of Corporate Bonds & Notes of $39,918, Residential Mortgage-Backed Securities — Non-Agency of $185,626, Commercial Mortgage-Backed Securities — Non-Agency of $57,580, Asset-Backed Securities — Non-Agency of $52,466 and Senior Loans of $10,694.
The Fund does not hold any significant investments with unobservable inputs which are categorized as Level 3.
The Fund's assets assigned to the Level 3 category are valued utilizing the valuation technique deemed the most appropriate in the circumstances.
Certain residential, commercial and asset backed securities as well as senior loans classified as Level 3 securities are valued using the market approach and utilize single market quotations from broker dealers which may have included, but not limited to, the distressed nature of the security and observable transactions for similar assets in the market. Significant increases (decreases) to any of these inputs would result in a significantly lower (higher) fair value measurement.
Certain corporate bonds classified as Level 3 are valued using a market approach. To determine fair value for these securities, management considered various factors which may have included, but were not limited to, trades of similar securities, estimated earnings of the respective company, market multiples derived from a set of comparable companies, and the position of the security within the respective company's capital structure. Significant increases (decreases) to any of these inputs would result in a significantly lower (higher) fair value measurement. Generally, a change estimated earnings of the respective company might result in change to the comparable companies and market multiples.
Certain residential mortgage backed securities classified as Level 3 are valued using a market approach. To determine fair value for these securities, management considered various factors which may have included, but were not limited to, estimated cash flows of the securities and observed yields on securities management deemed comparable. Significant increases (decreases) to any of these inputs would result in a significantly lower (higher) fair value measurement. Generally, a change in observable yields on comparable securities would result in a directionally similar change to discount rates.
Financial assets were transferred from Level 3 to Level 2 as observable market inputs were utilized and management's determination that there was sufficient, reliable and observable market data to value these assets as of period end, April 30, 2013.
Transfers in and/or out of Level 3 are determined based on the fair value at the beginning of the period for security positions held throughout the period.

Notes to Financial Statements

Note 1. Organization
Columbia Intermediate Bond Fund (the Fund), a series of Columbia Funds Series Trust I (the Trust), is a diversified fund. The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust.
Fund Shares
The Trust may issue an unlimited number of shares (without par value). The Fund offers Class A, Class B, Class C, Class I, Class K, Class R, Class R4, Class R5, Class W, Class Y and Class Z shares. All share classes have identical voting, dividend and liquidation rights. Each share class has its own expense structure and sales charges, as applicable.
Class A shares are subject to a maximum front-end sales charge of 3.25% based on the initial investment amount. Class A shares purchased without an initial sales charge in accounts aggregating $1 million to $50 million at the time of purchase are subject to a contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC) if the shares are sold within 18 months of purchase, charged as follows: 1.00% CDSC if redeemed within 12 months of purchase, and 0.50% CDSC if redeemed more than 12, but less than 18, months after purchase.
Class B shares may be subject to a maximum CDSC of 3.00% based upon the holding period after purchase. Class B shares will generally convert to Class A shares eight years after purchase.

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements.
Security Valuation
Debt securities generally are valued by pricing services approved by the Board of Trustees (the Board) based upon market transactions for normal, institutional-size trading units of similar securities. The services may use various pricing techniques which take into account appropriate factors such as yield, quality, coupon rate, maturity, type of issue, trading characteristics and other data, as well as broker quotes. Debt securities for which quotations are readily available may also be valued based upon an over-the-counter or exchange bid quotation.
Asset and mortgage-backed securities are generally valued by pricing services, which utilize pricing models that incorporate the securities' cash flow and loan performance data. These models also take into account available market data, including trades, market quotations, and benchmark yield curves for identical or similar securities. Factors used to identify similar securities may include, but are not limited to, issuer, collateral type, vintage, prepayment speeds, collateral performance,

credit ratings, credit enhancement and expected life. Asset-backed securities for which quotations are readily available may also be valued based upon an over-the-counter or exchange bid quotation.
All equity securities are valued at the close of business of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE). Equity securities are valued at the last quoted sales price on the principal exchange or market on which they trade, except for securities traded on the NASDAQ Stock Market, which are valued at the NASDAQ official close price. Unlisted securities or listed securities for which there were no sales during the day are valued at the mean of the latest quoted bid and ask prices on such exchanges or markets.
Investments in other open-end investment companies, including money market funds, are valued at net asset value.
Short-term securities purchased within 60 days to maturity are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. The value of short-term securities originally purchased with maturities greater than 60 days is determined based on an amortized value to par upon reaching 60 days to maturity. Short-term securities maturing in more than 60 days from the valuation date are valued at the market price or approximate market value based on current interest rates.
Futures and options on futures contracts are valued based upon the settlement price established each day by the board of trade or exchange on which they are traded.
Swap transactions are valued through an independent pricing service or broker, or if neither is available, through an internal model based upon observable inputs.
Investments for which market quotations are not readily available, or that have quotations which management believes are not reliable, are valued at fair value as determined in good faith under consistently applied procedures established by and under the general supervision of the Board. If a security or class of securities (such as foreign securities) is valued at fair value, such value is likely to be different from the last quoted market price for the security.
The determination of fair value often requires significant judgment. To determine fair value, management may use assumptions including but not limited to future cash flows and estimated risk premiums. Multiple inputs from various sources may be used to determine fair value.
Foreign Currency Transactions and Translations
The values of all assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at that day's exchange rates. Net realized and unrealized gains (losses) on foreign currency transactions and translations include gains
(losses) arising from the fluctuation in exchange rates between trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, gains (losses) arising from the disposition of foreign currency and currency gains (losses) between the accrual and payment dates on dividends, interest income and foreign withholding taxes.
For financial statement purposes, the Fund does not distinguish that portion of gains (losses) on investments which is due to changes in foreign exchange rates from that which is due to changes in market prices of the investments. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gains (losses) on investments in the Statement of Operations.
Derivative Instruments
The Fund invests in certain derivative instruments, as detailed below, to meet its investment objectives. Derivatives are instruments whose values depend on, or are derived from, in whole or in part, the value of one or more other assets, such as securities, currencies, commodities or indices. Derivative instruments may be used to maintain cash reserves while maintaining exposure to certain other assets, to offset anticipated declines in values of investments, to facilitate trading, to reduce transaction costs and to pursue higher investment returns. The Fund may also use derivative instruments to mitigate certain investment risks, such as foreign currency exchange rate risk, interest rate risk and credit risk. Derivatives may involve various risks, including the potential inability of the counterparty to fulfill its obligation under the terms of the contract, the potential for an illiquid secondary market and the potential for market movements which may expose the Fund to gains or losses in excess of the amount shown in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
The Fund and any counterparty are required to maintain an agreement that requires the Fund and that counterparty to monitor (on a daily basis) the net fair value of all derivatives entered into pursuant to the agreement between the Fund and such counterparty. If the net fair value of such derivatives between the Fund and that counterparty exceeds a certain threshold (as defined in the agreement), the Fund or the counterparty (as the case may be) is required to post cash and/or securities as collateral. Fair values of derivatives presented in the financial statements are not netted with the fair value of other derivatives or with any collateral amounts posted by the Fund or any counterparty.
Futures Contracts
Futures contracts represent commitments for the future purchase or sale of an asset at a specified price on a specified date. The Fund bought and sold futures contracts to manage the duration and yield curve exposure of the Fund versus the
Annual Report 2013
52
Columbia Intermediate Bond Fund
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
April 30, 2013
benchmark, manage exposure to movements in interest rates. Upon entering into futures contracts, the Fund bears risks which may include interest rates, exchange rates or securities prices moving unexpectedly, in which case, the Fund may not achieve the anticipated benefits of the futures contracts and may realize a loss. Additional risks include counterparty credit risk, the possibility of an illiquid market, and that a change in the value of the contract or option may not correlate with changes in the value of the underlying asset.
Upon entering into a futures contract, the Fund pledges cash or securities with the broker in an amount sufficient to meet the initial margin requirement. Subsequent payments (variation margin) are made or received by the Fund each day. The variation margin payments are equal to the daily change in the contract value and are recorded as variation margin receivable or payable and are offset in unrealized gains or losses. The Fund recognizes a realized gain or loss when the contract is closed or expires. Futures contracts involve, to varying degrees, risk of loss in excess of the variation margin disclosed in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
Credit Default Swap Contracts
Credit default swap contracts are agreements in which one party pays fixed periodic payments to a counterparty in consideration for a guarantee from the counterparty to make a specific payment should a specified negative credit event(s) take place. The Fund entered into credit default swap contracts as a protection buyer to reduce overall credit exposure.
As the purchaser of a credit default swap contract, the Fund purchases protection by paying a periodic interest rate on the notional amount to the counterparty. The interest amount is accrued daily as a component of unrealized appreciation (depreciation) and is recorded as a realized loss upon payment. If a credit event as specified in the contract occurs, the Fund may have the option either to deliver the reference obligation to the seller in exchange for a cash payment of its par amount, or to receive a net cash settlement equal to the par amount less an agreed-upon value of the reference obligation as of the date of the credit event. The difference between the value of the obligation or cash delivered and the notional amount received will be recorded as a realized gain (loss).
As the seller of a credit default swap contract, the Fund sells protection to a buyer and will generally receive a periodic interest rate on the notional amount. The interest amount is accrued daily as a component of unrealized appreciation (depreciation) and is recorded as a realized gain upon receipt of the payment. If a credit event as specified in the contract occurs, the Fund may either be required to accept the reference obligation from the buyer in exchange for a cash payment of
its notional amount, or to pay the buyer a net cash settlement equal to the notional amount less an agreed-upon value of the reference obligation as of the date of the credit event. The difference between the value of the obligation or cash received and the notional amount paid will be recorded as a realized gain (loss). The maximum potential amount of undiscounted future payments the Fund could be required to make as the seller of protection under a credit default swap contract is equal to the notional amount of the reference obligation. Notional amounts of all credit default swap contracts outstanding for which the Fund is the seller of protection, if any, are disclosed in the Credit Default Swap Contracts Outstanding schedule following the Portfolio of Investments. These potential amounts may be partially offset by any recovery values of the respective reference obligations or premiums received upon entering into the agreement.
As a protection seller, the Fund bears the risk of loss from the credit events specified in the contract. Although specified events are contract specific, credit events are generally defined as bankruptcy, failure to pay, restructuring, obligation acceleration, obligation default, or repudiation/moratorium. For credit default swap contracts on credit indices, quoted market prices and resulting market values serve as an indicator of the current status of the payment/performance risk. Increasing market values, in absolute terms when compared to the notional amount of the swap, represent a deterioration of the reference entity's credit soundness and a greater likelihood or risk of default or other credit event occurring as defined under the terms of the contract. Market values for credit default swap contracts in which the Fund is the seller of protection, if any, are disclosed in the Credit Default Swap Contracts Outstanding schedule following the Portfolio of Investments.
The notional amounts and market values of credit default swap contracts are not recorded in the financial statements. Any premium paid or received by the Fund upon entering into a credit default swap contract is recorded as an asset or liability, respectively, and amortized daily as a component of realized gain (loss) in the Statement of Operations. Credit default swap contracts are valued daily, and the change in value is recorded as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) until the termination of the swap, at which time a realized gain (loss) is recorded.
Credit default swap contracts can involve greater risks than if a fund had invested in the reference obligation directly since, in addition to general market risks, credit default swaps are subject to counterparty credit risk, leverage risk, hedging risk, correlation risk and liquidity risk. The Fund will enter into credit default swap transactions only with counterparties that meet certain standards of creditworthiness.

Delayed Delivery Securities
The Fund may trade securities on other than normal settlement terms, including securities purchased or sold on a "when-issued" basis. This may increase the risk if the other party to the transaction fails to deliver and causes the Fund to subsequently invest at less advantageous prices. The Fund designates cash or liquid securities in an amount equal to the delayed delivery commitment.
Mortgage Dollar Roll Transactions
The Fund may enter into mortgage "dollar rolls" in which the Fund sells securities for delivery in the current month and simultaneously contracts with the same counterparty to repurchase similar (same type, coupon and maturity) but not identical securities on a specified future date not exceeding 120 days. During the roll period, the Fund loses the right to receive principal and interest paid on the securities sold. However, the Fund will benefit because it receives negotiated amounts in the form of reductions of the purchase price for the future purchase plus the interest earned on the cash proceeds of the securities sold until the settlement date of the forward purchase. The Fund records the incremental difference between the forward purchase and sale of each forward roll as a realized gain or loss. Unless any realized gains exceed the income, capital appreciation, and gain or loss due to mortgage

prepayments that would have been realized on the securities sold as part of the mortgage dollar roll, the use of this technique will diminish the investment performance of the Fund compared to what the performance would have been without the use of mortgage dollar rolls. All cash proceeds will be invested in instruments that are permissible investments for the Fund. The Fund identifies within its Portfolio of Investments cash or liquid securities in an amount equal to the forward purchase price.
For financial reporting and tax purposes, the Fund treats "to be announced" mortgage dollar rolls as two separate transactions, one involving the purchase of a security and a separate transaction involving a sale. These transactions may increase the Fund's portfolio turnover rate. The Fund does not currently enter into mortgage dollar rolls that are accounted for as financing transactions.
Mortgage dollar rolls involve certain risks. If the broker-dealer to whom the Fund sells the securities becomes insolvent, the Fund's right to purchase or repurchase the mortgage-related securities may be restricted and the instruments which the Fund is required to repurchase may be worth less than instruments which the Fund originally held. Successful use of mortgage dollar rolls may depend upon the Investment Manager's ability to predict interest rates and mortgage prepayments. For these reasons, there is no assurance that mortgage dollar rolls can be successfully employed.
Loan Participations and Commitments
The Fund may invest in loan participations. When the Fund purchases a loan participation, the Fund typically enters into a contractual relationship with the lender or third party selling such participation (Selling Participant), but not the borrower. However, the Fund assumes the credit risk of the borrower, Selling Participant and any other persons interpositioned between the Fund and the borrower. The Fund may not directly benefit from the collateral supporting the senior loan which it has purchased from the Selling Participant.
Stripped Securities
The Fund may invest in Interest Only (IO) and Principal Only (PO) stripped mortgage-backed securities. These securities are derivative multi-class mortgage securities structured so that one class receives most, if not all, of the principal from the underlying mortgage assets, while the other class receives most, if not all, of the interest and the remainder of the principal. If the underlying mortgage assets experience greater than anticipated prepayments of principal, the Fund may fail to fully recoup its initial investment in an IO security, therefore the daily interest accrual factor is adjusted each month to reflect the paydown of principal. The market value of these
securities can be extremely volatile in response to changes in interest rates. Credit risk reflects the risk that the Fund may not receive all or part of its principal because the issuer or credit enhancer has defaulted on its obligation.
Security Transactions
Security transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Cost is determined and gains (losses) are based upon the specific identification method for both financial statement and federal income tax purposes.
Income Recognition
Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis. Market premiums and discounts, including original issue discounts, are amortized and accreted, respectively, over the expected life of the security on all debt securities, unless otherwise noted.
Corporate actions and dividend income are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
Expenses
General expenses of the Trust are allocated to the Fund and other funds of the Trust based upon relative net assets or other expense allocation methodologies determined by the nature of the expense. Expenses directly attributable to the Fund are charged to the Fund. Expenses directly attributable to a specific class of shares are charged to that share class.
Determination of Class Net Asset Value
All income, expenses (other than class-specific expenses, which are charged to that share class, as shown in the Statement of Operations) and realized and unrealized gains (losses) are allocated to each class of the Fund on a daily basis, based on the relative net assets of each class, for purposes of determining the net asset value of each class.
Federal Income Tax Status
The Fund intends to qualify each year as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended, and will distribute substantially all of its taxable income (including net short-term capital gains), if any, for its tax year, and as such will not be subject to federal income taxes. In addition, the Fund intends to distribute in each calendar year substantially all of its net investment income, capital gains and certain other amounts, if any, such that the Fund should not be subject to federal excise tax. Therefore, no federal income or excise tax provision is recorded.
Distributions to Shareholders
Distributions from net investment income, if any, are declared daily and paid monthly. Net realized capital gains, if any, are distributed at least annually. Income distributions and capital

gain distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP.
Guarantees and Indemnifications
Under the Trust's organizational documents and, in some cases, by contract, its officers and trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Trust or its funds. In addition, certain of the Fund's contracts with its service providers contain general indemnification clauses. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown since the amount of any future claims that may be made against the Fund cannot be determined, and the Fund has no historical basis for predicting the likelihood of any such claims.
Recent Accounting Pronouncement
Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities
In December 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2011-11, Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities and in January 2013, ASU No. 2013-1, Clarifying the Scope of Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities (collectively, the ASUs). Specifically, the ASUs require an entity to disclose both gross and net information for derivatives and other financial instruments that are subject to a master netting arrangement or similar agreement. The ASUs require disclosure of collateral received in connection with the master netting agreements or similar agreements. The disclosure requirements are effective for interim and annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. At this time, management is evaluating the implications of this guidance and the impact it will have on the financial statement amounts and footnote disclosures, if any.
Note 3. Fees and Compensation Paid to Affiliates
Investment Management Fees
Under an Investment Management Services Agreement, Columbia Management Investment Advisers, LLC (the Investment Manager), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Ameriprise Financial, Inc. (Ameriprise Financial), determines which securities will be purchased, held or sold. The investment management fee is an annual fee that is equal to a percentage of the Fund's average daily net assets that declines from 0.43% to 0.30% as the Fund's net assets increase. The effective investment management fee rate for the year ended April 30, 2013 was 0.41% of the Fund's average daily net assets.
Administration Fees
Under an Administrative Services Agreement, the Investment Manager also serves as the Fund Administrator. The Fund pays the Fund Administrator an annual fee for administration and accounting services equal to a percentage of the Fund's average daily net assets that declines from 0.07% to 0.04% as the Fund's net assets increase. The effective administration fee rate for the year ended April 30, 2013 was 0.06% of the Fund's average daily net assets.
Compensation of Board Members
Board members are compensated for their services to the Fund as disclosed in the Statement of Operations. The Trust's eligible Trustees may participate in a Deferred Compensation Plan (the Plan) which may be terminated at any time. Obligations of the Plan will be paid solely out of the Fund's assets.
Compensation of Chief Compliance Officer
The Board has appointed a Chief Compliance Officer to the Fund in accordance with federal securities regulations. The Fund pays its pro-rata share of the expenses associated with the Chief Compliance Officer. The Fund's expenses for the Chief Compliance Officer will not exceed $15,000 per year.
Transfer Agent Fees
Under a Transfer and Dividend Disbursing Agent Agreement, Columbia Management Investment Services Corp. (the Transfer Agent), an affiliate of the Investment Manager and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Ameriprise Financial, is responsible for providing transfer agency services to the Fund. The Transfer Agent has contracted with Boston Financial Data Services (BFDS) to serve as sub-transfer agent.
The Transfer Agent receives monthly account-based service fees based on the number of open accounts and also receives sub-transfer agency fees based on a percentage of the average aggregate value of the Fund's shares maintained in omnibus accounts (other than omnibus accounts for which American Enterprise Investment Services Inc. is the broker of record or accounts where the beneficial shareholder is a customer of Ameriprise Financial Services, Inc., which are paid a per account fee). The Transfer Agent pays the fees of BFDS for services as sub-transfer agent and is not entitled to reimbursement for such fees from the Fund (with the exception of out-of-pocket fees).
The Transfer Agent also receives compensation from fees for various shareholder services and reimbursements for certain out-of-pocket fees. Class I shares do not pay transfer agent fees. Total transfer agent fees for Class K and Class R5 shares are subject to an annual limitation of not more than 0.05% of
Annual Report 2013
56
Columbia Intermediate Bond Fund
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
April 30, 2013
the average daily net assets attributable to each share class. Beginning November 8, 2012, Class Y shares are not subject to transfer agent fees for at least twelve months.
For the year ended April 30, 2013, the Fund's effective transfer agent fee rates as a percentage of average daily net assets of each class were as follows:
Class A | | | 0.19 | % | |
Class B | | | 0.19 | | |
Class C | | | 0.19 | | |
Class K* | | | 0.05 | | |
Class R | | | 0.19 | | |
Class R4* | | | 0.18 | | |
Class R5* | | | 0.05 | | |
Class W | | | 0.19 | | |
Class Z | | | 0.19 | | |
*Annualized.
The Fund and certain other associated investment companies, have severally, but not jointly, guaranteed the performance and observance of all the terms and conditions of a lease entered into by Seligman Data Corp. (SDC), the former transfer agent, including the payment of rent by SDC (the Guaranty). The lease and the Guaranty expire in January 2019. At April 30, 2013 the Fund's total potential future obligation over the life of the Guaranty is $18,076. The liability remaining at April 30, 2013 for non-recurring charges associated with the lease amounted to $11,125 and is recorded as a part of payable for other expenses in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
An annual minimum account balance fee of $20 may apply to certain accounts with a value below the Fund's initial minimum investment requirements to reduce the impact of small accounts on transfer agent fees. These minimum account balance fees are recorded as part of expense reductions in the Statement of Operations. For the year ended April 30, 2013, these minimum account balance fees reduced total expenses by $3,721.
Plan Administration Fees
Under a Plan Administration Services Agreement with the Transfer Agent, the Fund pays an annual fee at a rate of 0.25% of the Fund's average daily net assets attributable to Class K shares for the provision of various administrative, recordkeeping, communication and educational services.
Distribution and Service Fees
The Fund has an agreement with Columbia Management Investment Distributors, Inc. (the Distributor), an affiliate of the Investment Manager and a wholly-owned subsidiary of
Ameriprise Financial, for distribution and shareholder services. Pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act, the Board has approved, and the Fund has adopted, distribution and shareholder service plans (the Plans) which set the distribution and service fees for the Fund. These fees are calculated daily and are intended to compensate the Distributor and/or eligible selling and/or servicing agents for selling shares of the Fund and providing services to investors.
The Plans require the payment of a monthly service fee to the Distributor at the maximum annual rate of 0.25% of the average daily net assets attributable to Class A, Class B, Class C and Class W shares of the Fund. The Plans also require the payment of a monthly distribution fee to the Distributor at the maximum annual rates of 0.10%, 0.75%, 0.75%, 0.50% and 0.25% of the average daily net assets attributable to Class A, Class B, Class C, Class R and Class W shares, respectively.
The Fund may pay distribution and service fees up to a maximum annual rate of 0.35% of the Fund's average daily net assets attributable to Class A shares (comprised of up to 0.10% for distribution services and up to 0.25% for shareholder liaison services), but currently limit such fees to an aggregate fee of not more than 0.25% of the Fund's average daily net assets attributable to Class A shares.
The Distributor has voluntarily agreed to waive a portion of the distribution fee for Class C shares so that it does not exceed 0.60% annually of the average daily net assets attributable to Class C shares. This arrangement may be modified or terminated by the Distributor at any time.
The Fund may pay a distribution fee up to 0.25% of the Fund's average daily net assets attributable to Class W shares and a service fee of up to 0.25% of the Fund's average daily net assets attributable to Class W shares, provided, however, that the aggregate fee shall not exceed 0.25% of the Fund's average daily net assets attributable to Class W shares.
Sales Charges
Sales charges, including front-end charges and CDSCs, received by the Distributor for distributing Fund shares were $175,117 for Class A, $3,671 for Class B and $3,691 for Class C shares for the year ended April 30, 2013.
Expenses Waived/Reimbursed by the Investment Manager and its Affiliates
The Investment Manager and certain of its affiliates have contractually agreed to waive fees and/or reimburse expenses (excluding certain fees and expenses described below) for the periods disclosed below, unless sooner terminated at the sole discretion of the Board, so that the Fund's net operating expenses, after giving effect to fees waived/expenses

Under the agreement governing these fee waivers and/or expense reimbursement arrangements, the following fees and expenses are excluded from the waiver/reimbursement commitment, and therefore will be paid by the Fund, if applicable: taxes (including foreign transaction taxes), expenses associated with investments in affiliated and non-affiliated pooled investment vehicles (including mutual funds and exchange traded funds), transaction costs and brokerage commissions, costs related to any securities lending program, dividend expenses associated with securities sold short, inverse floater program fees and expenses, transaction charges and interest on borrowed money, interest, extraordinary expenses and any other expenses the exclusion of which is specifically approved by the Board.

Class C distribution fees waived by the Distributor, as discussed above, are in addition to the waiver/reimbursement commitment under the agreement.
Note 4. Federal Tax Information
The timing and character of income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP because of temporary or permanent book to tax differences.
At April 30, 2013, these differences are primarily due to differing treatment for capital loss carryforwards, principal and/or interest of fixed income securities, deferral/reversal of wash sale losses, Trustees' deferred compensation, distribution
reclassifications, foreign currency transactions, non-deductible expenses, post-October capital losses, derivative investments, adjustments on certain convertible preferred securities and investments on delayed delivery and forward sale commitments. To the extent these differences are permanent, reclassifications are made among the components of the Fund's net assets in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Temporary differences do not require reclassifications. In the Statement of Assets and Liabilities the following reclassifications were made:
Undistributed net investment income | | $ | (5,923,934 | ) | |
Accumulated net realized gain | | | 7,478,832 | | |
Paid-in capital | | | (1,554,898 | ) | |
Net investment income and net realized gains (losses), as disclosed in the Statement of Operations, and net assets were not affected by this reclassification.
The tax character of distributions paid during the periods indicated was as follows:
| | Year Ended April 30, 2013 | | Period Ended April 30, 2012 | | Year Ended March 31, 2012 | |
Ordinary income | | $ | 118,759,067 | | | $ | 9,525,343 | | | $ | 128,721,073 | | |
Long-term capital gains | | | 20,518,637 | | | | — | | | | — | | |
Total | | $ | 139,277,704 | | | $ | 9,525,343 | | | $ | 128,721,073 | | |
Short-term capital gain distributions, if any, are considered ordinary income distributions for tax purposes.
At April 30, 2013, the components of distributable earnings on a tax basis were as follows:
Undistributed ordinary income | | $ | 15,438,137 | | |
Undistributed accumulated long-term gain | | | 31,008,034 | | |
Accumulated realized loss | | | (13,660,743 | ) | |
Unrealized appreciation | | | 220,318,138 | | |
At April 30, 2013, the cost of investments for federal income tax purposes was $5,535,187,701 and the aggregate gross unrealized appreciation and depreciation based on that cost was:
Unrealized appreciation | | $ | 262,991,917 | | |
Unrealized depreciation | | | (42,673,779 | ) | |
Net unrealized appreciation | | $ | 220,318,138 | | |
For the year ended April 30, 2013, $10,537,415 of capital loss carryforward was utilized.
Under current tax rules, regulated investment companies can elect to treat certain late-year ordinary losses incurred and post-October capital losses (capital losses realized after October 31)

as arising on the first day of the following taxable year. As of April 30, 2013, the Fund will elect to treat post-October capital losses of $13,660,743 as arising on May 1, 2013.
Management of the Fund has concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions that would require recognition in the financial statements. However, management's conclusion may be subject to review and adjustment at a later date based on factors including, but not limited to, new tax laws, regulations, and administrative interpretations (including relevant court decisions). Generally, the Fund's federal tax returns for the prior three fiscal years remain subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service.
Note 5. Portfolio Information
The cost of purchases and proceeds from sales of securities, excluding short-term obligations, aggregated to $12,741,162,241 and $7,917,838,361, respectively, for the year ended April 30, 2013, of which $6,715,172,840 and $6,697,468,058, respectively, were U.S. government securities.
Note 6. Regulatory Settlements
During the year ended March 31, 2012, the Fund received $11,319 as a result of a regulatory settlement proceeding brought by the Securities and Exchange Commission against an unaffiliated third party relating to market timing and/or late trading of mutual funds. This amount represented the Fund's portion of the proceeds from the settlement (the Fund was not a party to the proceeding). The payments have been included in "Proceeds from regulatory settlements" in the Statement of Changes in Net Assets.
Note 7. Lending of Portfolio Securities
Effective December 19, 2012, the Fund no longer participates in securities lending activity. Prior to that date, the Fund participated, or was eligible to participate, in securities lending activity pursuant to a Master Securities Lending Agreement (the Agreement) with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (JPMorgan). The Agreement authorized JPMorgan as lending agent to lend securities to authorized borrowers in order to generate additional income on behalf of the Fund. Pursuant to the Agreement, the securities loaned were secured by cash or securities that either were issued or guaranteed as to principal and interest by the U.S. government, its agencies, authorities or instrumentalities with value equal to at least 100% of the market value of the loaned securities. Any additional collateral required to maintain those levels due to market fluctuations of the loaned securities was requested to be delivered the following business day. Cash collateral received was invested
by the lending agent on behalf of the Fund into authorized investments pursuant to the Agreement.
Pursuant to the Agreement, the Fund received income for lending its securities either in the form of fees or by earning interest on invested cash collateral, net of negotiated rebates paid to borrowers and fees paid to the lending agent for services provided and any other securities lending expenses. Net income earned from securities lending for the year ended April 30, 2013 is disclosed in the Statement of Operations. The Fund continued to earn and accrue interest and dividends on the securities loaned.
Note 8. Affiliated Money Market Fund
The Fund invests its daily cash balances in Columbia Short-Term Cash Fund, an affiliated money market fund established for the exclusive use by the Fund and other affiliated funds. The income earned by the Fund from such investments is included as "Dividends — affiliated issuers" in the Statement of Operations. As an investing fund, the Fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of the expenses of Columbia Short-Term Cash Fund.
Note 9. Shareholder Concentration
At April 30, 2013, two unaffiliated shareholder accounts owned an aggregate of 50.5% of the outstanding shares of the Fund. The Fund has no knowledge about whether any portion of those shares was owned beneficially by such accounts. Subscription and redemption activity by concentrated accounts may have a significant effect on the operations of the Fund.
Note 10. Line of Credit
The Fund has entered into a revolving credit facility with a syndicate of banks led by JPMorgan whereby the Fund may borrow for the temporary funding of shareholder redemptions or for other temporary or emergency purposes. The credit facility agreement, as amended, which is a collective agreement between the Fund and certain other funds managed by the Investment Manager, severally and not jointly, permits collective borrowings up to $500 million. Interest is charged to each participating fund based on its borrowings at a rate equal to the higher of (i) the overnight federal funds rate plus 1.00% or (ii) the one-month LIBOR rate plus 1.00%. Each borrowing under the credit facility matures no later than 60 days after the date of borrowing. The Fund also pays a commitment fee equal to its pro rata share of the amount of the credit facility at a rate of 0.08% per annum.
The Fund had no borrowings during the year ended April 30, 2013.

Note 11. Fund Merger
At the close of business on March 15, 2013, the Fund acquired the assets and assumed the identified liabilities of Columbia Diversified Bond Fund, a series of Columbia Funds Series Trust II (the acquired fund). The reorganization was completed after shareholders of the acquired fund approved the plan on February 27, 2013. The purpose of the transaction was to combine two funds managed by the Investment Manager with comparable investment objectives and strategies.
The aggregate net assets of the Fund immediately before the acquisition were $2,558,418,370 and the combined net assets immediately after the acquisition were $5,569,275,980.
The merger was accomplished by a tax-free exchange of 607,096,686 shares of the acquired fund valued at $3,010,857,610 (including $80,476,192 of unrealized appreciation).
In exchange for the acquired fund's shares, the Fund issued the following number of shares:
| | Shares | |
Class A | | | 198,219,171 | | |
Class B | | | 4,174,593 | | |
Class C | | | 6,533,646 | | |
Class I | | | 24,395,358 | | |
Class K | | | 8,041,771 | | |
Class R | | | 22,650 | | |
Class R4 | | | 1,369 | | |
Class R5 | | | 18,399 | | |
Class W | | | 78,413,367 | | |
Class Z | | | 443,605 | | |
For financial reporting purposes, net assets received and shares issued by the Fund were recorded at fair value; however, the acquired fund's cost of investments was carried forward.
The financial statements reflect the operations of the Fund for the period prior to the merger and the combined fund for the period subsequent to the merger. Because the combined investment portfolios have been managed as a single integrated portfolio since the merger was completed, it is not practicable to separate the amounts of revenue and earnings of the acquired fund that have been included in the combined Fund's Statement of Operations since the merger was completed.
Assuming the merger had been completed on April 30, 2012 the Fund's pro-forma net investment income (loss), net gain (loss) on investments, net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) and net increase in net assets from operations
for the year ended April 30, 2013 would have been approximately $174.8 million, $167.8 million, $(5.4) million and $337.4 million, respectively.
Note 12. Significant Risks
Asset-Backed Securities Risk
The value of asset-backed securities may be affected by, among other factors, changes in interest rates, the market's assessment of the quality of underlying assets, the creditworthiness of the servicer for the underlying assets, factors concerning the interests in and structure of the issuer or the originator of the underlying assets, or the creditworthiness or rating of the entities that provide any supporting letters of credit, surety bonds, derivative instruments, or other credit enhancement. The value of asset-backed securities also will be affected by the exhaustion, termination or expiration of any credit enhancement. Most asset-backed securities are subject to prepayment risk, which is the possibility that the underlying debt may be refinanced or prepaid prior to maturity during periods of declining or low interest rates, causing the Fund to have to reinvest the money received in securities that have lower yields. In addition, the impact of prepayments on the value of asset-backed securities may be difficult to predict and may result in greater volatility.
Mortgage-Backed Securities Risk
The value of mortgage-backed securities may be affected by, among other things, changes in interest rates, factors concerning the interests in and structure of the issuer or the originator of the mortgages, the creditworthiness of the entities that provide any supporting letters of credit, surety bonds or other credit enhancements or the quality of underlying assets or the market's assessment thereof. Mortgage-backed securities are subject to prepayment risk, which is the possibility that the underlying mortgage may be refinanced or prepaid prior to maturity during periods of declining or low interest rates, causing the Fund to have to reinvest the money received in securities that have lower yields. In addition, the impact of prepayments on the value of mortgage-backed securities may be difficult to predict and may result in greater volatility.
Note 13. Subsequent Events
Management has evaluated the events and transactions that have occurred through the date the financial statements were issued and noted no items requiring adjustment of the financial statements or additional disclosure.

Note 14. Information Regarding Pending and Settled Legal Proceedings
In December 2005, without admitting or denying the allegations, American Express Financial Corporation (AEFC, which is now known as Ameriprise Financial, Inc. (Ameriprise Financial)) entered into settlement agreements with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and Minnesota Department of Commerce (MDOC) related to market timing activities. As a result, AEFC was censured and ordered to cease and desist from committing or causing any violations of certain provisions of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, the Investment Company Act of 1940, and various Minnesota laws. AEFC agreed to pay disgorgement of $10 million and civil money penalties of $7 million. AEFC also agreed to retain an independent distribution consultant to assist in developing a plan for distribution of all disgorgement and civil penalties ordered by the SEC in accordance with various undertakings detailed at www.sec.gov/litigation/admin/ia-2451.pdf. Ameriprise Financial and its affiliates have cooperated with the SEC and the MDOC in these legal proceedings, and have made regular reports to the funds' Boards of Trustees.
Ameriprise Financial and certain of its affiliates have historically been involved in a number of legal, arbitration and regulatory proceedings, including routine litigation, class actions, and governmental actions, concerning matters arising in connection with the conduct of their business activities. Ameriprise Financial believes that the Funds are not currently the subject of, and that neither Ameriprise Financial nor any of its affiliates are the subject of, any pending legal, arbitration or regulatory proceedings that are likely to have a material adverse effect on the Funds or the ability of Ameriprise Financial or its affiliates to perform under their contracts with the Funds. Ameriprise Financial is required to make 10-Q, 10-K and, as necessary, 8-K filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission on legal and regulatory matters that relate to Ameriprise Financial and its affiliates. Copies of these filings may be obtained by accessing the SEC website at www.sec.gov.
There can be no assurance that these matters, or the adverse publicity associated with them, will not result in increased fund redemptions, reduced sale of fund shares or other adverse consequences to the Funds. Further, although we believe proceedings are not likely to have a material adverse effect on the Funds or the ability of Ameriprise Financial or its affiliates to perform under their contracts with the Funds, these proceedings are subject to uncertainties and, as such, we are unable to estimate the possible loss or range of loss that may result. An adverse outcome in one or more of these
proceedings could result in adverse judgments, settlements, fines, penalties or other relief that could have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial condition or results of operations of Ameriprise Financial.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Trustees of Columbia Funds Series Trust I and the Shareholders of Columbia Intermediate Bond Fund
In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the portfolio of investments, and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Columbia Intermediate Bond Fund (the "Fund") (a series of Columbia Funds Series Trust I) at April 30, 2013, the results of its operations, the changes in its net assets and the financial highlights for the periods indicated, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as "financial statements") are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at April 30, 2013 by correspondence with the custodian, transfer agent, agent banks and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Columbia Small Cap Value Fund I
Not FDIC insured • No bank guarantee • May lose value
Columbia Small Cap Value Fund I
Dear Shareholders,
U.S. equities had a strong first quarter
Similar to 2012, equities once again were the best performing asset class in the first quarter of 2013. The S&P 500 Index reached an all-time closing high on the last trading day of the quarter and pushed through its October 2007 peak. Although global equities have performed well year-to-date, there is significant performance divergence among regions. In local currency terms, Japanese equities were the best performing developed market globally, and U.S. stocks outperformed most other global equity markets. European equities rose in the first quarter but trailed U.S. stocks and had a turbulent March, as investors were reminded of instability in the eurozone with news of a banking crisis in Cyprus.
Although all 10 sectors of the S&P 500 Index delivered positive returns, this was a rally led by defensive stocks such as those in health care, consumer staples and utilities. Materials and technology stocks were the weakest sectors.
High yield leads fixed income; most sectors flat to down
The fixed-income markets lagged equities with modest, single-digit returns coming from municipals and high-yield sectors in the United States. Most government and investment-grade credit sectors were roughly flat to down for the first quarter of 2013. Emerging market bonds were the biggest disappointment with single-digit losses.
Columbia Management to begin delivering summary prospectuses
Each Columbia fund is required to update its prospectus on an annual basis. Beginning with June 2013 prospectus updates, shareholders of Columbia retail mutual funds will start to receive a summary prospectus, rather than the full length (statutory) mutual fund prospectus they have received in the past.
Each fund's summary prospectus will include the following key information:
> Investment objective
> Fee and expense table
> Portfolio turnover rate information
> Principal investment strategies, principal risks and performance information
> Management information
> Purchase and sale information
> Tax information
> Financial intermediary compensation information
Each fund's statutory prospectus will contain additional information about the fund and its risks. Both the statutory and summary prospectus will be updated each year, and will be available at columbiamanagement.com. Shareholders may request a printed version of a statutory prospectus at no cost by calling 800.345.6611 or sending an email to serviceinquiries@columbiamanagement.com.

Manager Discussion of Fund Performance
For the 12-month period that ended April 30, 2013, the Fund's Class A shares returned 14.68% excluding sales charges. The Fund lagged its benchmark, the Russell 2000 Value Index, which returned 19.71% for the same 12-month period. Sector positioning, combined with an emphasis on higher quality companies with demonstrated earnings and healthy balance sheets, detracted from the Fund's results relative to the index.
U.S. Economy: Growth in the Slow Lane
Europe's general economic woes, a financial crisis in Cyprus and U.S. struggles to avoid a fiscal cliff of tax increases and spending cuts weighed on the global economy early in the 12-month period ended April 30, 2013. Late in the period, across-the-board budget cuts (the sequester) clouded consumer confidence, even though the sequester has had little material impact on the economy to date. However, a pickup in job growth early in 2013, steady manufacturing activity and a solid rebound in the housing market are encouraging signs that growth has broadened in recent months. Pent-up demand, low mortgage rates and an improving labor market have lifted home sales. Even so, there has been no real improvement in the overall pace of economic growth since the current cycle of recovery began in 2009. Household income growth is practically nonexistent, and household spending has come under pressure after the expiration of the payroll tax cut. Against this backdrop, U.S. investors bid prices higher on stocks and other riskier assets as central banks continued to pour liquidity into key markets. Small- and mid-cap stocks outperformed large-cap stocks, and value solidly outperformed growth across all capitalization ranges.
Quality Emphasis and Sector Positioning Hampered Results
The Fund's focus on reasonably valued stocks of companies with demonstrated earnings growth and relatively low debt proved a handicap to relative performance in a market dominated by more speculative stocks. However, an emphasis on quality is part of the Fund's long-term strategy. An overweight in energy early in the period and less exposure to financials also hampered results. The Fund began the fiscal year with higher exposure than the index to energy stocks, but falling oil and natural gas prices early in the period undercut results from oil-related investments. In financials, the Fund had little exposure to real estate investment trusts (REITs), many of which offered generous dividend yields, which made them attractive to income-seeking investors. Notable individual disappointments for the period included Knight Capital, a market maker in the capital markets that suffered severe losses after a computer coding mistake led to trading errors. Knight, which subsequently was rescued in a takeover, is no longer in the portfolio. Other underperforming investments included: Coeur d'Alene Mines, a silver and gold miner hurt when mineral prices declined as the value of the U.S. dollar rose; Energy XXI, a Bermuda-based offshore oil driller whose operating results in the Gulf of Mexico were held back by difficult weather; and GrafTech International, a manufacturer of graphite electrodes used in the production of steel.

Columbia Small Cap Value Fund I
Manager Discussion of Fund Performance (continued)
Utilities, Health Care Exposure Benefited Fund
An overweight in the utilities sector was a positive factor for the Fund, especially an emphasis on traditional regulated utilities, which benefited as their customer bases expanded. Underweighting independent power producers also supported performance. Many independent power producers operate coal-fired and renewable energy plants, whose energy outputs became less competitive to power produced by burning lower priced natural gas. An overweight in health care stocks, a sector to which we increased exposure during the period, also aided relative returns. Within health care, we found growing companies with innovative products and services that were selling at reasonable prices, such as Lincare Holdings and Jazz Pharmaceuticals, which made strong contributions to results. Lincare, a home health care provider, was acquired at a premium and is no longer in the portfolio. Ireland-based Jazz Pharmaceuticals is a specialty biopharmaceutical company, which is not represented in the index. Although the Fund was overweight in technology stocks early in the period, which held back results as technology underperformed, we had good results from our technology selections, including First Solar and j2 Global. First Solar, a producer of solar energy panels, gained after the market began to recognize the value of its customer contracts. Software company j2 Global benefited from revenue gains from its system for sending faxes by computers. Another outstanding tech performer was Cymer, a producer of laser technology for semiconductor production. Cymer ultimately was acquired by one of its customers at a premium price.
Modestly Growing Economy Calls for Conservative Positioning
Although the small-cap value market enjoyed strong gains over the past year, we think the outlook for a slowly growing economy calls for a conservative approach to stock selection. We believe our long-term emphasis on higher quality companies makes even more sense now that investors have bid up share prices on some highly speculative companies with lower earnings and greater debt. Given the prospects that the economy may continue to grow modestly, we have currently overweighted more defensive sectors, including consumer staples, health care, telecommunication services and utilities, while reducing exposure to more cyclical sectors, such as energy, industrials, information technology and materials. At present, we intend to maintain our emphasis on companies that we believe have strong growth prospects, healthy balance sheets and stock prices that represent good relative value. Over a full market cycle, we think these companies have the potential to achieve superior returns.

Understanding Your Fund's Expenses
(Unaudited)
As an investor, you incur two types of costs. There are transaction costs, which generally include sales charges on purchases and may include redemption fees. There are also ongoing costs, which generally include management fees, distribution and service (Rule 12b-1) fees, and other fund expenses. The following information is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to help you compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
Analyzing Your Fund's Expenses
To illustrate these ongoing costs, we have provided examples and calculated the expenses paid by investors in each share class of the Fund during the period. The actual and hypothetical information in the table is based on an initial investment of $1,000 at the beginning of the period indicated and held for the entire period. Expense information is calculated two ways and each method provides you with different information. The amount listed in the "Actual" column is calculated using the Fund's actual operating expenses and total return for the period. You may use the Actual information, together with the amount 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 results by the expenses paid during the period under the Actual column. The amount listed in the "Hypothetical" column assumes a 5% annual rate of return before expenses (which is not the Fund's actual return) and then applies the Fund's actual expense ratio for the period to the hypothetical return. You should not use the hypothetical account values and expenses to estimate either your actual account balance at the end of the period or the expenses you paid during the period. See "Compare With Other Funds" below for details on how to use the hypothetical data.
Compare With Other Funds
Since all mutual funds are required to include the same hypothetical calculations about expenses in shareholder reports, you can use this information to compare the ongoing cost of investing in the Fund with other funds. To do so, compare the hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of other funds. As you compare hypothetical examples of other funds, it is important to note that hypothetical examples are meant to highlight the ongoing costs of investing in a fund only and do not reflect any transaction costs, such as sales charges, or redemption or exchange fees. Therefore, the hypothetical calculations are useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. If transaction costs were included in these calculations, your costs would be higher.

*For the period November 8, 2012 through April 30, 2013. Class R4 and Class R5 shares commenced operations on November 8, 2012.
Expenses paid during the period are equal to the annualized expense ratio for each class as indicated above, multiplied by the average account value over the period and then multiplied by the number of days in the Fund's most recent fiscal half year and divided by 365.
Expenses do not include fees and expenses incurred indirectly by the Fund from the underlying funds in which the Fund may invest (also referred to as "acquired funds"), including affiliated and non-affiliated pooled investment vehicles (including mutual funds and exchange-traded funds).

Fair Value Measurements
Generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) require disclosure regarding the inputs and valuation techniques used to measure fair value and any changes in valuation inputs or techniques. In addition, investments shall be disclosed by major category.
The Fund categorizes its fair value measurements according to a three-level hierarchy that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by prioritizing that the most observable input be used when available. Observable inputs are those that market participants would use in pricing an investment based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity. Unobservable inputs are those that reflect the Fund's assumptions about the information market participants would use in pricing an investment. An investment's level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is deemed significant to the asset or liability's fair value measurement. The input levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with investments at that level. For example, certain U.S. government securities are generally high quality and liquid, however, they are reflected as Level 2 because the inputs used to determine fair value may not always be quoted prices in an active market.
Fair value inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:
> Level 1 — Valuations based on quoted prices for investments in active markets that the Fund has the ability to access at the measurement date (including NAV for open-end mutual funds). Valuation adjustments are not applied to Level 1 investments.
> Level 2 — Valuations based on other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risks, etc.).
> Level 3 — Valuations based on significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund's own assumptions and judgment in determining the fair value of investments).
Inputs that are used in determining fair value of an investment may include price information, credit data, volatility statistics, and other factors. These inputs can be either observable or unobservable. The availability of observable inputs can vary between investments, and is affected by various factors such as the type of investment, and the volume and level of activity for that investment or similar investments in the marketplace. The inputs will be considered by the Investment Manager, along with any other relevant factors in the calculation of an investment's fair value. The Fund uses prices and inputs that are current as of the measurement date, which may include periods of market dislocations. During these periods, the availability of prices and inputs may be reduced for many investments. This condition could cause an investment to be reclassified between the various levels within the hierarchy.
Foreign equity securities actively traded in markets where there is a significant delay in the local close relative to the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) are classified as Level 2. The values of these securities may include an adjustment to reflect the impact of significant market movements following the close of local trading, as described in Note 2 to the financial statements — Security Valuation.
Investments falling into the Level 3 category are primarily supported by quoted prices from brokers and dealers participating in the market for those investments. However, these may be classified as Level 3 investments due to lack of market transparency and corroboration to support these quoted prices. Additionally, valuation models may be used as the pricing source for any remaining investments classified as Level 3. These models may rely on one or more significant unobservable inputs and/or significant assumptions by the Investment Manager. Inputs used in valuations may include, but are not limited to, financial statement analysis, capital account balances, discount rates and estimated cash flows, and comparable company data.
Under the direction of the Fund's Board of Trustees (the Board), the Investment Manager's Valuation Committee (the Committee) is responsible for carrying out the valuation procedures approved by the Board. The Committee consists of voting and non-voting members from various groups within the Investment Manager's organization, including operations and accounting, trading and investments, compliance, risk management and legal.
The Committee meets at least monthly to review and approve valuation matters, which may include a description of specific valuation determinations, data regarding pricing information received from approved pricing vendors and brokers and the results of Board-approved valuation control policies and procedures (the Policies). The Policies address, among other things, instances when market quotations are readily available, including recommendations of third party pricing vendors and a determination of appropriate pricing methodologies; events that require specific valuation determinations and assessment of fair value techniques; securities with a potential for stale pricing, including those that are illiquid, restricted, or in default; and the effectiveness of third-party pricing vendors, including periodic reviews of vendors. The Committee meets more frequently, as needed, to discuss additional valuation matters, which may include the need to review back-testing results, review time-sensitive information or approve related valuation actions. The Committee reports to the Board, with members of the Committee meeting with the Board at each of its regularly scheduled meetings to discuss valuation matters and actions during the period, similar to those described earlier.
For investments categorized as Level 3, the Committee monitors information similar to that described above, which may include: (i) data specific to the issuer or comparable issuers, (ii) general market or specific sector news and (iii) quoted prices and specific or similar security transactions. The Committee considers this data and any changes from prior periods in order to assess the reasonableness of observable and unobservable inputs, any assumptions or internal models used to value those securities and changes in fair value. This data is also used to corroborate, when available, information received from approved pricing vendors and brokers. Various factors impact the frequency of monitoring this information (which may occur as often as daily). However, the Committee may determine that changes to inputs, assumptions and models are not required as a result of the monitoring procedures performed.

The Fund's assets assigned to the Level 2 input category are generally valued using the market approach, in which a security's value is determined through reference to prices and information from market transactions for similar or identical assets. These assets include certain foreign securities for which a third party statistical pricing service may be employed for purposes of fair market valuation. The models utilized by the third party statistical pricing service take into account a security's correlation to available market data including, but not limited to, intraday index, ADR, and ETF movements.
There were no transfers of financial assets between Levels 1 and 2 during the period.

Columbia Small Cap Value Fund I
Notes to Financial Statements
April 30, 2013
Note 1. Organization
Columbia Small Cap Value Fund I (the Fund), a series of Columbia Funds Series Trust I (the Trust), is a diversified fund. The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust.
Fund Shares
The Trust may issue an unlimited number of shares (without par value). The Fund offers Class A, Class B, Class C, Class I, Class R, Class R4, Class R5, Class Y and Class Z shares. All share classes have identical voting, dividend and liquidation rights. Each share class has its own expense structure and sales charges, as applicable.
Class A shares are subject to a maximum front-end sales charge of 5.75% based on the initial investment amount. Class A shares purchased without an initial sales charge in accounts aggregating $1 million to $50 million at the time of purchase are subject to a contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC) if the shares are sold within 18 months of purchase, charged as follows: 1.00% CDSC if redeemed within 12 months of purchase, and 0.50% CDSC if redeemed more than 12, but less than 18, months after purchase.
Class B shares may be subject to a maximum CDSC of 5.00% based upon the holding period after purchase. Class B shares will generally convert to Class A shares eight years after purchase. The Fund no longer accepts investments by new or existing investors in the Fund's Class B shares, except in connection with the reinvestment of any dividend and/or capital gain distributions in Class B shares of the Fund and exchanges by existing Class B shareholders of certain other funds within the Columbia Family of Funds.
Class C shares are subject to a 1.00% CDSC on shares redeemed within one year of purchase.
Class I shares are not subject to sales charges and are available only to the Columbia Family of Funds.
Class R shares are not subject to sales charges and are available only to certain retirement plans and other eligible investors.
Class R4 shares are not subject to sales charges and are generally available only to omnibus retirement plans and certain other eligible investors. Class R4 shares commenced operations on November 8, 2012.
Class R5 shares are not subject to sales charges and are generally available only to investors purchasing through authorized investment professionals and omnibus retirement plans. Class R5 shares commenced operations on November 8, 2012.
Class Y shares are not subject to sales charges and are generally available only to certain retirement plans.
Class Z shares are not subject to sales charges, and are available only to certain investors.
Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements.
Security Valuation
All equity securities are valued at the close of business of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE). Equity securities are valued at the last quoted sales price on the principal exchange or market on which they trade, except for securities traded on the NASDAQ Stock Market, which are valued at the NASDAQ official close price. Unlisted securities or listed securities for which there were no sales during the day are valued at the mean of the latest quoted bid and ask prices on such exchanges or markets.
Foreign equity securities are valued based on quotations from the principal market in which such securities are normally traded. If any foreign share prices are not readily available as a result of limited share activity the securities are valued at the mean of the latest quoted bid and ask prices on such exchanges or markets. Foreign currency exchange rates are generally determined at 4:00 p.m. Eastern (U.S.) time. However, many securities markets and exchanges outside the U.S. close prior to the close of the NYSE; therefore, the closing prices for securities in such markets or on such exchanges may not fully reflect events that occur after such close but before the close of the NYSE. In those situations, foreign securities will be fair valued pursuant to the policy adopted by the Board, including utilizing a third party pricing service to determine these fair values. The third party pricing service takes into account multiple factors, including, but not limited to, movements in the U.S. securities markets, certain depositary receipts, futures contracts and foreign exchange rates that have occurred subsequent to the close of the foreign

Columbia Small Cap Value Fund I
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
April 30, 2013
exchange or market, to determine a good faith estimate that reasonably reflects the current market conditions as of the close of the NYSE. The fair value of a security is likely to be different from the quoted or published price, if available.
Investments in other open-end investment companies, including money market funds, are valued at net asset value.
Investments for which market quotations are not readily available, or that have quotations which management believes are not reliable, are valued at fair value as determined in good faith under consistently applied procedures established by and under the general supervision of the Board. If a security or class of securities (such as foreign securities) is valued at fair value, such value is likely to be different from the last quoted market price for the security.
The determination of fair value often requires significant judgment. To determine fair value, management may use assumptions including but not limited to future cash flows and estimated risk premiums. Multiple inputs from various sources may be used to determine fair value.
Foreign Currency Transactions and Translations
The values of all assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at that day's exchange rates. Net realized and unrealized gains (losses) on foreign currency transactions and translations include gains (losses) arising from the fluctuation in exchange rates between trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, gains (losses) arising from the disposition of foreign currency and currency gains (losses) between the accrual and payment dates on dividends, interest income and foreign withholding taxes.
For financial statement purposes, the Fund does not distinguish that portion of gains (losses) on investments which is due to changes in foreign exchange rates from that which is due to changes in market prices of the investments. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gains (losses) on investments in the Statement of Operations.
Security Transactions
Security transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Cost is determined and gains (losses) are based upon the specific identification method for both financial statement and federal income tax purposes.
Income Recognition
Corporate actions and dividend income are recorded net of any non-reclaimable tax withholdings, on the ex-dividend date or upon receipt of ex-dividend notification in the case of certain foreign securities.
The Fund may receive distributions from holdings in business development companies (BDCs), exchange traded funds (ETFs) and real estate investment trusts (REITs), which report information on the character of their distributions annually. These distributions are allocated to dividend income, capital gain and return of capital based on estimates made by the Fund's management if actual information has not yet been reported. Return of capital is recorded as a reduction of the cost basis of securities held. If the Fund no longer owns the applicable securities, return of capital is recorded as a realized gain. Management's estimates are subsequently adjusted when the actual character of the distributions is disclosed by the BDCs, ETFs and REITs, which could result in a proportionate change in return of capital to shareholders.
Awards from class action litigation are recorded as a reduction of cost basis if the Fund still owns the applicable securities on the payment date. If the Fund no longer owns the applicable securities, the proceeds are recorded as realized gains.
Expenses
General expenses of the Trust are allocated to the Fund and other funds of the Trust based upon relative net assets or other expense allocation methodologies determined by the nature of the expense. Expenses directly attributable to the Fund are charged to the Fund. Expenses directly attributable to a specific class of shares are charged to that share class.
Determination of Class Net Asset Value
All income, expenses (other than class-specific expenses, which are charged to that share class, as shown in the Statement of Operations) and realized and unrealized gains (losses) are allocated to each class of the Fund on a daily basis, based on the relative net assets of each class, for purposes of determining the net asset value of each class.
Federal Income Tax Status
The Fund intends to qualify each year as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended, and will distribute substantially all of its taxable income (including net short-term capital gains), if any, for its tax year, and as such will not be subject to federal income taxes. In addition, the Fund intends to distribute in each calendar year substantially all of its net investment income, capital gains and certain other amounts, if any, such that the Fund should not be subject to federal excise tax. Therefore, no federal income or excise tax provision is recorded.
Foreign Taxes
The Fund may be subject to foreign taxes on income, gains on investments or currency repatriation, a portion of which may

April 30, 2013
be recoverable. The Fund will accrue such taxes and recoveries, as applicable, based upon its current interpretation of tax rules and regulations that exist in the markets in which it invests.
Realized gains in certain countries may be subject to foreign taxes at the Fund level, based on statutory rates. The Fund accrues for such foreign taxes on net realized and unrealized gains at the appropriate rate for each jurisdiction, as applicable. The amount, if any, is disclosed as a liability on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
Distributions to Shareholders
Distributions from net investment income, if any, are declared and paid annually. Net realized capital gains, if any, are distributed along with the income distribution. Income distributions and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP.
Guarantees and Indemnifications
Under the Trust's organizational documents and, in some cases, by contract, its officers and trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Trust or its funds. In addition, certain of the Fund's contracts with its service providers contain general indemnification clauses. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown since the amount of any future claims that may be made against the Fund cannot be determined, and the Fund has no historical basis for predicting the likelihood of any such claims.
Recent Accounting Pronouncement
Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities
In December 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2011-11, Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities and in January 2013, ASU No. 2013-1, Clarifying the Scope of Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities (collectively, the ASUs). Specifically, the ASUs require an entity to disclose both gross and net information for derivatives and other financial instruments that are subject to a master netting arrangement or similar agreement. The ASUs require disclosure of collateral received in connection with the master netting agreements or similar agreements. The disclosure requirements are effective for interim and annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. At this time, management is evaluating the implications of this guidance and the impact it will have on the financial statement amounts and footnote disclosures, if any.
Note 3. Fees and Compensation Paid to Affiliates
Investment Management Fees
Under an Investment Management Services Agreement, Columbia Management Investment Advisers, LLC (the Investment Manager), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Ameriprise Financial, Inc. (Ameriprise Financial), determines which securities will be purchased, held or sold. The investment management fee is an annual fee that is equal to a percentage of the Fund's average daily net assets that declines from 0.79% to 0.70% as the Fund's net assets increase. The effective investment management fee rate for the year ended April 30, 2013 was 0.74% of the Fund's average daily net assets.
Administration Fees
Under an Administrative Services Agreement, the Investment Manager also serves as the Fund Administrator. The Fund pays the Fund Administrator an annual fee for administration and accounting services equal to a percentage of the Fund's average daily net assets that declines from 0.08% to 0.05% as the Fund's net assets increase. The effective administration fee rate for the year ended April 30, 2013 was 0.07% of the Fund's average daily net assets.
Compensation of Board Members
Board members are compensated for their services to the Fund as disclosed in the Statement of Operations. The Trust's eligible Trustees may participate in a Deferred Compensation Plan (the Plan) which may be terminated at any time. Obligations of the Plan will be paid solely out of the Fund's assets.
Compensation of Chief Compliance Officer
The Board has appointed a Chief Compliance Officer to the Fund in accordance with federal securities regulations. The Fund pays its pro-rata share of the expenses associated with the Chief Compliance Officer. The Fund's expenses for the Chief Compliance Officer will not exceed $15,000 per year.
Transfer Agent Fees
Under a Transfer and Dividend Disbursing Agent Agreement, Columbia Management Investment Services Corp. (the Transfer Agent), an affiliate of the Investment Manager and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Ameriprise Financial, is responsible for providing transfer agency services to the Fund. The Transfer Agent has contracted with Boston Financial Data Services (BFDS) to serve as sub-transfer agent.
The Transfer Agent receives monthly account-based service fees based on the number of open accounts and also receives sub-transfer agency fees based on a percentage of the average
Annual Report 2013
31
Columbia Small Cap Value Fund I
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
April 30, 2013
aggregate value of the Fund's shares maintained in omnibus accounts (other than omnibus accounts for which American Enterprise Investment Services Inc. is the broker of record or accounts where the beneficial shareholder is a customer of Ameriprise Financial Services, Inc., which are paid a per account fee). The Transfer Agent pays the fees of BFDS for services as sub-transfer agent and is not entitled to reimbursement for such fees from the Fund (with the exception of out-of-pocket fees).
The Transfer Agent also receives compensation from fees for various shareholder services and reimbursements for certain out-of-pocket fees. Class I shares do not pay transfer agent fees. Total transfer agent fees for Class R5 shares are subject to an annual limitation of not more than 0.05% of the average daily net assets attributable to Class R5 shares. Beginning November 1, 2012, Class Y shares are not subject to transfer agent fees for at least twelve months.
For the year ended April 30, 2013, the Fund's effective transfer agent fee rates as a percentage of average daily net assets of each class were as follows:
Class A | | | 0.20 | % | |
Class B | | | 0.20 | | |
Class C | | | 0.20 | | |
Class R | | | 0.20 | | |
Class R4* | | | 0.15 | | |
Class R5* | | | 0.05 | | |
Class Y | | | 0.00 | ** | |
Class Z | | | 0.20 | | |
*Annualized.
**Rounds to zero.
An annual minimum account balance fee of $20 may apply to certain accounts with a value below the Fund's initial minimum investment requirements to reduce the impact of small accounts on transfer agent fees. These minimum account balance fees are recorded as part of expense reductions in the Statement of Operations. For the year ended April 30, 2013, these minimum account balance fees reduced total expenses by $8,240.
Distribution and Service Fees
The Fund has an agreement with Columbia Management Investment Distributors, Inc. (the Distributor), an affiliate of the Investment Manager and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Ameriprise Financial, for distribution and shareholder services. Pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act, the Board has approved, and the Fund has adopted, distribution and shareholder service plans (the Plans) which set the distribution and service fees for the Fund. These fees are
calculated daily and are intended to compensate the Distributor and/or eligible selling and/or servicing agents for selling shares of the Fund and providing services to investors.
The Plans require the payment of a monthly service fee to the Distributor at the maximum annual rate of 0.25% of the average daily net assets attributable to Class A, Class B and Class C shares of the Fund. The Plans also require the payment of a monthly distribution fee to the Distributor at the maximum annual rates of 0.75%, 0.75% and 0.50% of the average daily net assets attributable to Class B, Class C and Class R shares, respectively.
Sales Charges
Sales charges, including front-end charges and CDSCs, received by the Distributor for distributing Fund shares were $33,016 for Class A, $4,766 for Class B and $1,269 for Class C shares for the year ended April 30, 2013.
Expenses Waived/Reimbursed by the Investment Manager and its Affiliates
The Investment Manager and certain of its affiliates have contractually agreed to waive fees and/or reimburse expenses (excluding certain fees and expenses described below) for the periods disclosed below, unless sooner terminated at the sole discretion of the Board, so that the Fund's net operating expenses, after giving effect to fees waived/expenses reimbursed and any balance credits and/or overdraft charges from the Fund's custodian, do not exceed the following annual rates as a percentage of the class' average daily net assets:
| | November 1, 2012 through August 31, 2013 | | Prior to November 1, 2012 | |
Class A | | | 1.40 | % | | | 1.37 | % | |
Class B | | | 2.15 | | | | 2.12 | | |
Class C | | | 2.15 | | | | 2.12 | | |
Class I | | | 0.99 | | | | 0.97 | | |
Class R | | | 1.65 | | | | 1.62 | | |
Class R4 | | | 1.15 | * | | | — | | |
Class R5 | | | 1.04 | * | | | — | | |
Class Y | | | 0.99 | | | | 1.12 | | |
Class Z | | | 1.15 | | | | 1.12 | | |
*Annual rate is contractual from November 8, 2012 (the commencement of operations of each share class) through November 8, 2013.
Under the agreement governing these fee waivers and/or expense reimbursement arrangements, the following fees and expenses are excluded from the waiver/reimbursement commitment, and therefore will be paid by the Fund, if applicable: taxes (including foreign transaction taxes), expenses associated with investments in affiliated and

non-affiliated pooled investment vehicles (including mutual funds and exchange traded funds), transaction costs and brokerage commissions, costs related to any securities lending program, dividend expenses associated with securities sold short, inverse floater program fees and expenses, transaction charges and interest on borrowed money, interest, extraordinary expenses and any other expenses the exclusion of which is specifically approved by the Board. This agreement may be modified or amended only with approval from all parties.
Note 4. Federal Tax Information
The timing and character of income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP because of temporary or permanent book to tax differences.
At April 30, 2013, these differences are primarily due to differing treatment for deferral/reversal of wash sale losses, Trustees' deferred compensation, foreign currency transactions, Passive Foreign Investment Company holdings, and earnings and profits distributed to shareholders on the redemption of shares. To the extent these differences are permanent, reclassifications are made among the components of the Fund's net assets in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Temporary differences do not require reclassifications. In the Statement of Assets and Liabilities the following reclassifications were made:
Undistributed net investment income | | $ | 646,549 | | |
Accumulated net realized gain | | | (17,327,139 | ) | |
Paid-in capital | | | 16,680,590 | | |
Net investment income and net realized gains (losses), as disclosed in the Statement of Operations, and net assets were not affected by this reclassification.
The tax character of distributions paid during the years indicated was as follows:
| | Year Ended April 30, 2013 | | Period Ended April 30, 2012 | | Year Ended June 30, 2011 | |
Ordinary income | | $ | 11,885,761 | | | $ | 34,261,606 | | | $ | 19,271,086 | | |
Long-term capital gains | | | 55,638,622 | | | | 84,314,697 | | | | 6,213,315 | | |
Total | | $ | 67,524,383 | | | $ | 118,576,303 | | | $ | 25,484,401 | | |
Short-term capital gain distributions, if any, are considered ordinary income distributions for tax purposes.
At April 30, 2013, the components of distributable earnings on a tax basis were as follows:
Undistributed ordinary income | | $ | 26,842,773 | | |
Undistributed accumulated long-term capital gains | | | 66,788,250 | | |
Unrealized appreciation | | | 310,643,740 | | |
At April 30, 2013, the cost of investments for federal income tax purposes was $1,240,368,101 and the aggregate gross unrealized appreciation and depreciation based on that cost was:
Unrealized appreciation | | $ | 355,285,024 | | |
Unrealized depreciation | | | (44,641,284 | ) | |
Net unrealized appreciation | | $ | 310,643,740 | | |
Management of the Fund has concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions that would require recognition in the financial statements. However, management's conclusion may be subject to review and adjustment at a later date based on factors including, but not limited to, new tax laws, regulations, and administrative interpretations (including relevant court decisions). Generally, the Fund's federal tax returns for the prior three fiscal years remain subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service.
Note 5. Portfolio Information
The cost of purchases and proceeds from sales of securities, excluding short-term obligations, aggregated to $667,570,030 and $1,063,250,066, respectively, for the year ended April 30, 2013.
Note 6. Regulatory Settlements
During the period ended April 30, 2012, the Fund received $253,732 as a result of a regulatory settlement proceeding brought by the Securities and Exchange Commission against an unaffiliated third party relating to market timing and/or late trading of mutual funds. This amount represented the Fund's portion of the proceeds from the settlement (the Fund was not a party to the proceeding). The payments have been included in "Proceeds from regulatory settlements" in the Statement of Changes in Net Assets.
Note 7. Lending of Portfolio Securities
Effective December 19, 2012, the Fund no longer participates in securities lending activity. Prior to that date, the Fund participated, or was eligible to participate, in securities lending activity pursuant to a Master Securities Lending Agreement (the Agreement) with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (JPMorgan). The Agreement authorized JPMorgan as lending agent to lend securities to authorized borrowers in order to generate additional income on behalf of the Fund. Pursuant to the Agreement, the securities loaned were secured by cash or securities that either were issued or guaranteed as to principal and interest by the U.S. government, its agencies, authorities or instrumentalities with value equal to at least 100% of the market value of the loaned securities. Any additional collateral required to maintain those levels due to market fluctuations of

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
April 30, 2013
the loaned securities was requested to be delivered the following business day. Cash collateral received was invested by the lending agent on behalf of the Fund into authorized investments pursuant to the Agreement.
Pursuant to the Agreement, the Fund received income for lending its securities either in the form of fees or by earning interest on invested cash collateral, net of negotiated rebates paid to borrowers and fees paid to the lending agent for services provided and any other securities lending expenses. Net income earned from securities lending for the year ended April 30, 2013 is disclosed in the Statement of Operations. The Fund continued to earn and accrue interest and dividends on the securities loaned.
Note 8. Affiliated Money Market Fund
The Fund invests its daily cash balances in Columbia Short-Term Cash Fund, an affiliated money market fund established for the exclusive use by the Fund and other affiliated funds. The income earned by the Fund from such investments is included as "Dividends — affiliated issuers" in the Statement of Operations. As an investing fund, the Fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of the expenses of Columbia Short-Term Cash Fund.
Note 9. Shareholder Concentration
At April 30, 2013, two unaffiliated shareholder accounts owned an aggregate of 29.4% of the outstanding shares of the Fund. The Fund has no knowledge about whether any portion of those shares was owned beneficially by such accounts. Affiliated shareholder accounts owned 3.7% of the outstanding shares of the Fund. Subscription and redemption activity by concentrated accounts may have a significant effect on the operations of the Fund.
Note 10. Line of Credit
The Fund has entered into a revolving credit facility with a syndicate of banks led by JPMorgan whereby the Fund may borrow for the temporary funding of shareholder redemptions or for other temporary or emergency purposes. The credit facility agreement, as amended, which is a collective agreement between the Fund and certain other funds managed by the Investment Manager, severally and not jointly, permits collective borrowings up to $500 million. Interest is charged to each participating fund based on its borrowings at a rate equal to the higher of (i) the overnight federal funds rate plus 1.00% or (ii) the one-month LIBOR rate plus 1.00%. Each borrowing under the credit facility matures no later than 60 days after the date of borrowing. The Fund also pays a commitment fee equal to its pro rata share of the amount of the credit facility at a rate of 0.08% per annum.
The Fund had no borrowings during the year ended April 30, 2013.
Note 11. Fund Merger
At the close of business on June 3, 2011, Columbia Small Cap Value Fund I acquired the assets and assumed the identified liabilities of RiverSource Disciplined Small Cap Value Fund. The reorganization was completed after shareholders approved the plan on February 15, 2011. The purpose of the transaction was to combine two funds managed by the Investment Manager with comparable investment objectives and strategies.
The aggregate net assets of Columbia Small Cap Value Fund I immediately before the acquisition were $1,873,264,948 and the combined net assets immediately after the acquisition were $1,915,994,081.
The merger was accomplished by a tax-free exchange of 4,604,408 shares of RiverSource Disciplined Small Cap Value Fund valued at $42,729,133 (including $4,256,611 of unrealized appreciation).
In exchange for RiverSource Disciplined Small Cap Value Fund shares, Columbia Small Cap Value Fund I issued the following number of shares:
| | Shares | |
Class A | | | 84,483 | | |
Class B | | | 3,912 | | |
Class C | | | 3,642 | | |
Class I | | | 817,679 | | |
Class R | | | 94 | | |
For financial reporting purposes, net assets received and shares issued by Columbia Small Cap Value Fund I were recorded at fair value; however, RiverSource Disciplined Small Cap Value Fund's cost of investments was carried forward.
The financial statements reflect the operations of Columbia Small Cap Value Fund I for the period prior to the merger and the combined fund for the period subsequent to the merger. Because the combined investment portfolios have been managed as a single integrated portfolio since the merger was completed, it is not practicable to separate the amounts of revenue and earnings of RiverSource Disciplined Small Cap Value Fund that have been included in the combined Fund's Statement of Operations since the merger was completed.
Assuming the merger had been completed on July 1, 2010 Columbia Small Cap Value Fund I's pro-forma net investment income, net gain on investments, net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) and net increase in net assets from operations for the year ended June 30, 2011 would have been
Annual Report 2013
34
Columbia Small Cap Value Fund I
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
April 30, 2013
approximately $7.9 million, $142.1 million, $310.9 million and $460.9 million, respectively.
Note 12. Significant Risks
Financial Sector Risk
The Fund's portfolio managers may invest significantly in issuers operating in the financial sector. The Fund may be more susceptible to the particular risks of this sector than if the Fund were invested in a wider variety of issuers operating in unrelated sectors.
Note 13. Subsequent Events
Management has evaluated the events and transactions that have occurred through the date the financial statements were issued and noted no items requiring adjustment of the financial statements or additional disclosure.
Note 14. Information Regarding Pending and Settled Legal Proceedings
In December 2005, without admitting or denying the allegations, American Express Financial Corporation (AEFC, which is now known as Ameriprise Financial, Inc. (Ameriprise Financial)) entered into settlement agreements with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and Minnesota Department of Commerce (MDOC) related to market timing activities. As a result, AEFC was censured and ordered to cease and desist from committing or causing any violations of certain provisions of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, the Investment Company Act of 1940, and various Minnesota laws. AEFC agreed to pay disgorgement of $10 million and civil money penalties of $7 million. AEFC also agreed to retain an independent distribution consultant to assist in developing a plan for distribution of all disgorgement and civil penalties ordered by the SEC in accordance with various undertakings detailed at www.sec.gov/litigation/admin/ia-2451.pdf. Ameriprise Financial and its affiliates have cooperated with the SEC and the MDOC in these legal proceedings, and have made regular reports to the funds' Boards of Trustees.
Ameriprise Financial and certain of its affiliates have historically been involved in a number of legal, arbitration and regulatory proceedings, including routine litigation, class actions, and governmental actions, concerning matters arising in connection with the conduct of their business activities. Ameriprise Financial believes that the Funds are not currently the subject of, and that neither Ameriprise Financial nor any of its affiliates are the subject of, any pending legal, arbitration or regulatory proceedings that are likely to have a material adverse effect on the Funds or the ability of Ameriprise Financial or its affiliates to perform under their contracts with the Funds. Ameriprise Financial is required to make 10-Q,
10-K and, as necessary, 8-K filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission on legal and regulatory matters that relate to Ameriprise Financial and its affiliates. Copies of these filings may be obtained by accessing the SEC website at www.sec.gov.
There can be no assurance that these matters, or the adverse publicity associated with them, will not result in increased fund redemptions, reduced sale of fund shares or other adverse consequences to the Funds. Further, although we believe proceedings are not likely to have a material adverse effect on the Funds or the ability of Ameriprise Financial or its affiliates to perform under their contracts with the Funds, these proceedings are subject to uncertainties and, as such, we are unable to estimate the possible loss or range of loss that may result. An adverse outcome in one or more of these proceedings could result in adverse judgments, settlements, fines, penalties or other relief that could have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial condition or results of operations of Ameriprise Financial.

In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the portfolio of investments, and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Columbia Small Cap Value Fund I (the "Fund") (a series of Columbia Funds Series Trust I) at April 30, 2013, the results of its operations, the changes in its net assets and the financial highlights for the periods indicated, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as "financial statements") are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at April 30, 2013 by correspondence with the custodian, transfer agent and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Annual Report
April 30, 2013

Not FDIC insured • No bank guarantee • May lose value
Dear Shareholders,
U.S. equities had a strong first quarter
Similar to 2012, equities once again were the best performing asset class in the first quarter of 2013. The S&P 500 Index reached an all-time closing high on the last trading day of the quarter and pushed through its October 2007 peak. Although global equities have performed well year-to-date, there is significant performance divergence among regions. In local currency terms, Japanese equities were the best performing developed market globally, and U.S. stocks outperformed most other global equity markets. European equities rose in the first quarter but trailed U.S. stocks and had a turbulent March, as investors were reminded of instability in the eurozone with news of a banking crisis in Cyprus.
Although all 10 sectors of the S&P 500 Index delivered positive returns, this was a rally led by defensive stocks such as those in health care, consumer staples and utilities. Materials and technology stocks were the weakest sectors.
High yield leads fixed income; most sectors flat to down
The fixed-income markets lagged equities with modest, single-digit returns coming from municipals and high-yield sectors in the United States. Most government and investment-grade credit sectors were roughly flat to down for the first quarter of 2013. Emerging market bonds were the biggest disappointment with single-digit losses.
Columbia Management to begin delivering summary prospectuses
Each Columbia fund is required to update its prospectus on an annual basis. Beginning with June 2013 prospectus updates, shareholders of Columbia retail mutual funds will start to receive a summary prospectus, rather than the full length (statutory) mutual fund prospectus they have received in the past.
Each fund's summary prospectus will include the following key information:
> Investment objective
> Fee and expense table
> Portfolio turnover rate information
> Principal investment strategies, principal risks and performance information
> Management information
> Purchase and sale information
> Tax information
> Financial intermediary compensation information
Each fund's statutory prospectus will contain additional information about the fund and its risks. Both the statutory and summary prospectus will be updated each year, and will be available at columbiamanagement.com. Shareholders may request a printed version of a statutory prospectus at no cost by calling 800.345.6611 or sending an email to serviceinquiries@columbiamanagement.com.

Manager Discussion of Fund Performance
For the 12-month period that ended April 30, 2013, the Fund's Class A shares returned 4.21% excluding sales charges. The Fund's benchmark, the Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, returned 3.68% for the same period. The Fund had sufficient exposure to non-Treasury segments of the fixed-income markets to benefit from an environment that rewarded risk taking.
U.S. Economy: Growth in the Slow Lane
Europe's general economic woes, a financial crisis in Cyprus and U.S. struggles to avoid a fiscal cliff of tax increases and various spending cuts (commonly referred to as the sequester) weighed on the global economy throughout the 12-month period ended April 30, 2013. Late in the period, the sequester clouded consumer confidence in the United States, even though it has had little material impact on the economy to date. However, a decrease in the U.S. unemployment rate early in 2013, steady manufacturing activity and a rebound in the housing market are encouraging signs that growth has broadened in recent months. Pent-up demand, low mortgage rates and an improving labor market have lifted home sales. Even so, there has been no real improvement in the overall pace of economic growth since the current cycle of recovery began in 2009. Household income growth is practically nonexistent, and household spending has come under pressure after the expiration of the payroll tax cut. Against this backdrop, U.S. investors bid prices higher on stocks and other volatile assets as central banks continued to pour liquidity into key markets.
Risk Taking Rewarded
During the period, investors were rewarded for venturing away from safe but low-yielding Treasury securities. The Fund added incremental value from selected investments in low-coupon agency mortgages, high-quality commercial mortgage-backed securities and corporate bonds. Within the corporate bond sector, the Fund's emphasis on financial companies paid off when their bonds rallied strongly. An underweight in the Treasury sector, which underperformed, also worked in the Fund's favor.
Because the Fund's maturity profile was modestly shorter than the benchmark, it gave up some relative return as bond yields declined. (Bond yields and prices move in opposite directions.) The Fund had no exposure to the riskiest areas of the market, such as high-yield bonds, but such investments, despite their success in the past 12 months, are inconsistent with the Fund's long-term strategy.
Looking Ahead
We plan to continue to seek out high-quality investments and to add risk if we believe it is justified by prevailing valuations and economic trends. Consensus forecasts now call for annual economic growth in the 2.0% range, and our positioning of the portfolio is currently consistent with that outlook. As the riskier sectors of the market have rallied, their yield advantage over Treasury securities has compressed. We would not hesitate to seek a more conservative framework should we see further erosion of this yield advantage.

Understanding Your Fund's Expenses
(Unaudited)
As an investor, you incur two types of costs. There are transaction costs, which generally include sales charges on purchases and may include redemption fees. There are also ongoing costs, which generally include management fees, distribution and service (Rule 12b-1) fees, and other fund expenses. The following information is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to help you compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
Analyzing Your Fund's Expenses
To illustrate these ongoing costs, we have provided examples and calculated the expenses paid by investors in each share class of the Fund during the period. The actual and hypothetical information in the table is based on an initial investment of $1,000 at the beginning of the period indicated and held for the entire period. Expense information is calculated two ways and each method provides you with different information. The amount listed in the "Actual" column is calculated using the Fund's actual operating expenses and total return for the period. You may use the Actual information, together with the amount 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 results by the expenses paid during the period under the Actual column. The amount listed in the "Hypothetical" column assumes a 5% annual rate of return before expenses (which is not the Fund's actual return) and then applies the Fund's actual expense ratio for the period to the hypothetical return. You should not use the hypothetical account values and expenses to estimate either your actual account balance at the end of the period or the expenses you paid during the period. See "Compare With Other Funds" below for details on how to use the hypothetical data.
Compare With Other Funds
Since all mutual funds are required to include the same hypothetical calculations about expenses in shareholder reports, you can use this information to compare the ongoing cost of investing in the Fund with other funds. To do so, compare the hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of other funds. As you compare hypothetical examples of other funds, it is important to note that hypothetical examples are meant to highlight the ongoing costs of investing in a fund only and do not reflect any transaction costs, such as sales charges, or redemption or exchange fees. Therefore, the hypothetical calculations are useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. If transaction costs were included in these calculations, your costs would be higher.

*For the period November 8, 2012 through April 30, 2013. Class R4 and Class R5 shares commenced operations on November 8, 2012.
Expenses paid during the period are equal to the annualized expense ratio for each class as indicated above, multiplied by the average account value over the period and then multiplied by the number of days in the Fund's most recent fiscal half year and divided by 365.
Expenses do not include fees and expenses incurred indirectly by the Fund from the underlying funds in which the Fund may invest (also referred to as "acquired funds"), including affiliated and non-affiliated pooled investment vehicles (including mutual funds and exchange-traded funds).
Had Columbia Management Investment Advisers, LLC and/or certain of its affiliates not waived/reimbursed certain fees and expenses, account value at the end of the period would have been reduced.

Fair Value Measurements
Generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) require disclosure regarding the inputs and valuation techniques used to measure fair value and any changes in valuation inputs or techniques. In addition, investments shall be disclosed by major category.
The Fund categorizes its fair value measurements according to a three-level hierarchy that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by prioritizing that the most observable input be used when available. Observable inputs are those that market participants would use in pricing an investment based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity. Unobservable inputs are those that reflect the Fund's assumptions about the information market participants would use in pricing an investment. An investment's level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is deemed significant to the asset or liability's fair value measurement. The input levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with investments at that level. For example, certain U.S. government securities are generally high quality and liquid, however, they are reflected as Level 2 because the inputs used to determine fair value may not always be quoted prices in an active market.
Fair value inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:
> Level 1 — Valuations based on quoted prices for investments in active markets that the Fund has the ability to access at the measurement date (including NAV for open-end mutual funds). Valuation adjustments are not applied to Level 1 investments.
> Level 2 — Valuations based on other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risks, etc.).
> Level 3 — Valuations based on significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund's own assumptions and judgment in determining the fair value of investments).
Inputs that are used in determining fair value of an investment may include price information, credit data, volatility statistics, and other factors. These inputs can be either observable or unobservable. The availability of observable inputs can vary between investments, and is affected by various factors such as the type of investment, and the volume and level of activity for that investment or similar investments in the marketplace. The inputs will be considered by the Investment Manager, along with any other relevant factors in the calculation of an investment's fair value. The Fund uses prices and inputs that are current as of the measurement date, which may include periods of market dislocations. During these periods, the availability of prices and inputs may be reduced for many investments. This condition could cause an investment to be reclassified between the various levels within the hierarchy.
Investments falling into the Level 3 category are primarily supported by quoted prices from brokers and dealers participating in the market for those investments. However, these may be classified as Level 3 investments due to lack of market transparency and corroboration to support these quoted prices. Additionally, valuation models may be used as the pricing source for any remaining investments classified as Level 3. These models may rely on one or more significant unobservable inputs and/or significant assumptions by the Investment Manager. Inputs used in valuations may include, but are not limited to, financial statement analysis, capital account balances, discount rates and estimated cash flows, and comparable company data.
Under the direction of the Fund's Board of Trustees (the Board), the Investment Manager's Valuation Committee (the Committee) is responsible for carrying out the valuation procedures approved by the Board. The Committee consists of voting and non-voting members from various groups within the Investment Manager's organization, including operations and accounting, trading and investments, compliance, risk management and legal.
The Committee meets at least monthly to review and approve valuation matters, which may include a description of specific valuation determinations, data regarding pricing information received from approved pricing vendors and brokers and the results of Board-approved valuation control policies and procedures (the Policies). The Policies address, among other things, instances when market quotations are readily available, including recommendations of third party pricing vendors and a determination of appropriate pricing methodologies; events that require specific valuation determinations and assessment of fair value techniques; securities with a potential for stale pricing, including those that are illiquid, restricted, or in default; and the effectiveness of third-party pricing vendors, including periodic reviews of vendors. The Committee meets more frequently, as needed, to discuss additional valuation matters, which may include the need to review back-testing results, review time-sensitive information or approve related valuation actions. The Committee reports to the Board, with members of the Committee meeting with the Board at each of its regularly scheduled meetings to discuss valuation matters and actions during the period, similar to those described earlier.

For investments categorized as Level 3, the Committee monitors information similar to that described above, which may include: (i) data specific to the issuer or comparable issuers, (ii) general market or specific sector news and (iii) quoted prices and specific or similar security transactions. The Committee considers this data and any changes from prior periods in order to assess the reasonableness of observable and unobservable inputs, any assumptions or internal models used to value those securities and changes in fair value. This data is also used to corroborate, when available, information received from approved pricing vendors and brokers. Various factors impact the frequency of monitoring this information (which may occur as often as daily). However, the Committee may determine that changes to inputs, assumptions and models are not required as a result of the monitoring procedures performed.

The Fund's assets assigned to the Level 2 input category are generally valued using the market approach, in which a security's value is determined through reference to prices and information from market transactions for similar or identical assets.
There were no transfers of financial assets between Levels 1 and 2 during the period.
Derivative instruments are valued at unrealized appreciation (depreciation).
The following table is a reconciliation of Level 3 assets for which significant observable and/or unobservable inputs were used to determine fair value.

(a) Change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) relating to securities held at April 30, 2013 was $2,474, which is comprised of Residential Mortgage-Backed Securities — Non-Agency of $(41), Commercial Mortgage-Backed Securities — Non-Agency of $2,515.
The Fund does not hold any significant investments with unobservable inputs which are categorized as Level 3.
The Fund's assets assigned to the Level 3 category are valued utilizing the valuation technique deemed the most appropriate in the circumstances.
Certain commercial mortgage backed securities classified as Level 3 are valued using the market approach and utilizes single market quotations from broker dealers which may have included, but not limited to, the distressed nature of the security and observable transactions for similar assets in the market. Significant increases (decreases) to any of these inputs would result in a significantly lower (higher) fair value measurement.
Certain residential mortgage backed securities classified as Level 3 securities are valued using the market approach. To determine fair value for these securities, management considered various factors which may have included, but were not limited to, estimated cash flows of the securities, discount rates observed in the market for similar assets as well as observed yields on securities management deemed comparable. Significant increases (decreases) to any of these inputs would result in a significantly lower (higher) fair value measurement. Generally, a change in observable yields on comparable securities would result in a directionally similar change to discount rates.
Financial assets were transferred from Level 3 to Level 2 as observable market inputs were utilized and management's determination that there was sufficient, reliable and observable market data to value these assets as of period end.
Transfers in and/or out of Level 3 are determined based on the fair value at the beginning of the period for security positions held throughout the period.

The Trust may issue an unlimited number of shares (without par value). The Fund offers Class A, Class B, Class C, Class I, Class R, Class R4, Class R5, Class T, Class W, Class Y and Class Z shares. All share classes have identical voting, dividend and liquidation rights. Each share class has its own expense structure and sales charges, as applicable.
Class A shares are subject to a maximum front-end sales charge of 4.75% based on the initial investment amount. Class A shares purchased without an initial sales charge in accounts aggregating $1 million to $50 million at the time of purchase are subject to a contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC) if the shares are sold within 18 months of purchase, charged as follows: 1.00% CDSC if redeemed within 12 months of purchase, and 0.50% CDSC if redeemed more than 12, but less than 18, months after purchase.
Class B shares may be subject to a maximum CDSC of 5.00% based upon the holding period after purchase. Class B shares will generally convert to Class A shares eight years after purchase. The Fund no longer accepts investments by new or existing investors in the Fund's Class B shares, except in connection with the reinvestment of any dividend and/or capital gain distributions in Class B shares of the Fund and exchanges by existing Class B shareholders of certain other funds within the Columbia Family of Funds.
Class C shares are subject to a 1.00% CDSC on shares redeemed within one year of purchase.
Class I shares are not subject to sales charges and are available only to the Columbia Family of Funds.

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements.
Security Valuation
Debt securities generally are valued by pricing services approved by the Board of Trustees (the Board) based upon market transactions for normal, institutional-size trading units of similar securities. The services may use various pricing techniques which take into account appropriate factors such as yield, quality, coupon rate, maturity, type of issue, trading characteristics and other data, as well as broker quotes. Debt securities for which quotations are readily available may also be valued based upon an over-the-counter or exchange bid quotation.
Annual Report 2013
37
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
April 30, 2013
Asset and mortgage-backed securities are generally valued by pricing services, which utilize pricing models that incorporate the securities' cash flow and loan performance data. These models also take into account available market data, including trades, market quotations, and benchmark yield curves for identical or similar securities. Factors used to identify similar securities may include, but are not limited to, issuer, collateral type, vintage, prepayment speeds, collateral performance, credit ratings, credit enhancement and expected life. Asset-backed securities for which quotations are readily available may also be valued based upon an over-the-counter or exchange bid quotation.
Short-term securities purchased within 60 days to maturity are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. The value of short-term securities originally purchased with maturities greater than 60 days is determined based on an amortized value to par upon reaching 60 days to maturity. Short-term securities maturing in more than 60 days from the valuation date are valued at the market price or approximate market value based on current interest rates.
Investments in other open-end investment companies, including money market funds, are valued at net asset value.
Futures and options on futures contracts are valued based upon the settlement price established each day by the board of trade or exchange on which they are traded.
Swap transactions are valued through an independent pricing service or broker, or if neither is available, through an internal model based upon observable inputs.
Investments for which market quotations are not readily available, or that have quotations which management believes are not reliable, are valued at fair value as determined in good faith under consistently applied procedures established by and under the general supervision of the Board. If a security or class of securities (such as foreign securities) is valued at fair value, such value is likely to be different from the last quoted market price for the security.
The determination of fair value often requires significant judgment. To determine fair value, management may use assumptions including but not limited to future cash flows and estimated risk premiums. Multiple inputs from various sources may be used to determine fair value.
Derivative Instruments
The Fund invests in certain derivative instruments, as detailed below, to meet its investment objectives. Derivatives are instruments whose values depend on, or are derived from, in whole or in part, the value of one or more other assets, such as securities, currencies, commodities or indices. Derivative
instruments may be used to maintain cash reserves while maintaining exposure to certain other assets, to offset anticipated declines in values of investments, to facilitate trading, to reduce transaction costs and to pursue higher investment returns. The Fund may also use derivative instruments to mitigate certain investment risks, such as foreign currency exchange rate risk, interest rate risk and credit risk. Derivatives may involve various risks, including the potential inability of the counterparty to fulfill its obligation under the terms of the contract, the potential for an illiquid secondary market and the potential for market movements which may expose the Fund to gains or losses in excess of the amount shown in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
The Fund and any counterparty are required to maintain an agreement that requires the Fund and that counterparty to monitor (on a daily basis) the net fair value of all derivatives entered into pursuant to the agreement between the Fund and such counterparty. If the net fair value of such derivatives between the Fund and that counterparty exceeds a certain threshold (as defined in the agreement), the Fund or the counterparty (as the case may be) is required to post cash and/or securities as collateral. Fair values of derivatives presented in the financial statements are not netted with the fair value of other derivatives or with any collateral amounts posted by the Fund or any counterparty.
Futures Contracts
Futures contracts represent commitments for the future purchase or sale of an asset at a specified price on a specified date. The Fund bought and sold futures contracts to manage the duration and yield curve exposure of the Fund versus the benchmark and to manage exposure to movements in interest rates. Upon entering into futures contracts, the Fund bears risks which may include interest rates, exchange rates or securities prices moving unexpectedly, in which case, the Fund may not achieve the anticipated benefits of the futures contracts and may realize a loss. Additional risks include counterparty credit risk, the possibility of an illiquid market, and that a change in the value of the contract or option may not correlate with changes in the value of the underlying asset.
Upon entering into a futures contract, the Fund pledges cash or securities with the broker in an amount sufficient to meet the initial margin requirement. Subsequent payments (variation margin) are made or received by the Fund each day. The variation margin payments are equal to the daily change in the contract value and are recorded as variation margin receivable or payable and are offset in unrealized gains or losses. The Fund recognizes a realized gain or loss when the contract is closed or expires. Futures contracts involve, to

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
April 30, 2013
varying degrees, risk of loss in excess of the variation margin disclosed in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
Credit Default Swap Contracts
Credit default swap contracts are agreements in which one party pays fixed periodic payments to a counterparty in consideration for a guarantee from the counterparty to make a specific payment should a specified negative credit event(s) take place. The Fund entered into credit default swap contracts to increase or decrease its credit exposure to an index, to increase or decrease its credit exposure to a single issuer of debt securities, and to hedge the Fund's exposure on a debt security that it owns or in lieu of selling such debt security.
As the purchaser of a credit default swap contract, the Fund purchases protection by paying a periodic interest rate on the notional amount to the counterparty. The interest amount is accrued daily as a component of unrealized appreciation (depreciation) and is recorded as a realized loss upon payment. If a credit event as specified in the contract occurs, the Fund may have the option either to deliver the reference obligation to the seller in exchange for a cash payment of its par amount, or to receive a net cash settlement equal to the par amount less an agreed-upon value of the reference obligation as of the date of the credit event. The difference between the value of the obligation or cash delivered and the notional amount received will be recorded as a realized gain (loss).
As the seller of a credit default swap contract, the Fund sells protection to a buyer and will generally receive a periodic interest rate on the notional amount. The interest amount is accrued daily as a component of unrealized appreciation (depreciation) and is recorded as a realized gain upon receipt of the payment. If a credit event as specified in the contract occurs, the Fund may either be required to accept the reference obligation from the buyer in exchange for a cash payment of its notional amount, or to pay the buyer a net cash settlement equal to the notional amount less an agreed-upon value of the reference obligation as of the date of the credit event. The difference between the value of the obligation or cash received and the notional amount paid will be recorded as a realized gain (loss). The maximum potential amount of undiscounted future payments the Fund could be required to make as the seller of protection under a credit default swap contract is equal to the notional amount of the reference obligation. Notional amounts of all credit default swap contracts outstanding for which the Fund is the seller of protection, if any, are disclosed in the Credit Default Swap Contracts Outstanding schedule following the Portfolio of Investments. These potential amounts may be partially offset by any recovery values of the respective reference obligations or premiums received upon entering into the agreement.
As a protection seller, the Fund bears the risk of loss from the credit events specified in the contract. Although specified events are contract specific, credit events are generally defined as bankruptcy, failure to pay, restructuring, obligation acceleration, obligation default, or repudiation/moratorium. For credit default swap contracts on credit indices, quoted market prices and resulting market values serve as an indicator of the current status of the payment/performance risk. Increasing market values, in absolute terms when compared to the notional amount of the swap, represent a deterioration of the reference entity's credit soundness and a greater likelihood or risk of default or other credit event occurring as defined under the terms of the contract. Market values for credit default swap contracts in which the Fund is the seller of protection, if any, are disclosed in the Credit Default Swap Contracts Outstanding schedule following the Portfolio of Investments.
The notional amounts and market values of credit default swap contracts are not recorded in the financial statements. Any premium paid or received by the Fund upon entering into a credit default swap contract is recorded as an asset or liability, respectively, and amortized daily as a component of realized gain (loss) in the Statement of Operations. Credit default swap contracts are valued daily, and the change in value is recorded as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) until the termination of the swap, at which time a realized gain (loss) is recorded.
Credit default swap contracts can involve greater risks than if a fund had invested in the reference obligation directly since, in addition to general market risks, credit default swaps are subject to counterparty credit risk, leverage risk, hedging risk, correlation risk and liquidity risk. The Fund will enter into credit default swap transactions only with counterparties that meet certain standards of creditworthiness.
At April 30, 2013, in connection with outstanding credit default swap contracts, the Fund pledged securities of $575,000; the Fund held as collateral $170,000 in cash.
Effects of Derivative Transactions in the Financial Statements
The following tables are intended to provide additional information about the effect of derivatives on the financial statements of the Fund, including: the fair value of derivatives by risk category and the location of those fair values in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities; the impact of derivative transactions on the Fund's operations over the period including realized gains or losses and unrealized gains or losses. The derivative schedules following the Portfolio of Investments present additional information regarding derivative instruments outstanding at the end of the period, if any.

Delayed Delivery Securities
The Fund may trade securities on other than normal settlement terms, including securities purchased or sold on a "when-issued" basis. This may increase the risk if the other party to the transaction fails to deliver and causes the Fund to subsequently invest at less advantageous prices. The Fund designates cash or liquid securities in an amount equal to the delayed delivery commitment.
Forward Sale Commitments
The Fund may enter into forward sale commitments to hedge its portfolio positions or to sell mortgage-backed securities it owns under delayed delivery arrangements. Proceeds of forward sale commitments are not received until the contractual settlement date. While a forward sale commitment is outstanding, equivalent deliverable securities or an offsetting forward purchase commitment deliverable on or before the sale commitment date, are used to satisfy the commitment.
Unsettled forward sale commitments are valued at the current market value of the underlying securities, generally according to the procedures described under "Security Valuation" above. The forward sale commitment is "marked-to-market" daily and the change in market value is recorded by the Fund as an unrealized gain or loss. If the forward sale commitment is closed through the acquisition of an offsetting purchase commitment, the Fund realizes a gain or loss. If the Fund delivers securities under the commitment, the Fund realizes a gain or a loss from the sale of the securities based upon the market price established at the date the commitment was entered into.
Mortgage Dollar Roll Transactions
The Fund may enter into mortgage "dollar rolls" in which the Fund sells securities for delivery in the current month and simultaneously contracts with the same counterparty to repurchase similar (same type, coupon and maturity) but not identical securities on a specified future date not exceeding 120 days. During the roll period, the Fund loses the right to receive principal and interest paid on the securities sold. However, the Fund will benefit because it receives negotiated amounts in the form of reductions of the purchase price for the future purchase plus the interest earned on the cash proceeds of the securities sold until the settlement date of the forward purchase. The Fund records the incremental difference between the forward purchase and sale of each forward roll as a realized gain or loss. Unless any realized gains exceed the income, capital appreciation, and gain or loss due to mortgage prepayments that would have been realized on the securities sold as part of the mortgage dollar roll, the use of this technique will diminish the investment performance of the
Annual Report 2013
40
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
April 30, 2013
Fund compared to what the performance would have been without the use of mortgage dollar rolls. All cash proceeds will be invested in instruments that are permissible investments for the Fund. The Fund identifies within its Portfolio of Investments cash or liquid securities in an amount equal to the forward purchase price.
For financial reporting and tax purposes, the Fund treats "to be announced" mortgage dollar rolls as two separate transactions, one involving the purchase of a security and a separate transaction involving a sale. These transactions may increase the Fund's portfolio turnover rate. The Fund does not currently enter into mortgage dollar rolls that are accounted for as financing transactions.
Mortgage dollar rolls involve certain risks. If the broker-dealer to whom the Fund sells the securities becomes insolvent, the Fund's right to purchase or repurchase the mortgage-related securities may be restricted and the instruments which the Fund is required to repurchase may be worth less than instruments which the Fund originally held. Successful use of mortgage dollar rolls may depend upon the Investment Manager's ability to predict interest rates and mortgage prepayments. For these reasons, there is no assurance that mortgage dollar rolls can be successfully employed.
Security Transactions
Security transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Cost is determined and gains (losses) are based upon the specific identification method for both financial statement and federal income tax purposes.
Income Recognition
Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis. Market premiums and discounts, including original issue discounts, are amortized and accreted, respectively, over the expected life of the security on all debt securities, unless otherwise noted.
Corporate actions and dividend income are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
Expenses
General expenses of the Trust are allocated to the Fund and other funds of the Trust based upon relative net assets or other expense allocation methodologies determined by the nature of the expense. Expenses directly attributable to the Fund are charged to the Fund. Expenses directly attributable to a specific class of shares are charged to that share class.
Determination of Class Net Asset Value
All income, expenses (other than class-specific expenses, which are charged to that share class, as shown in the Statement of Operations) and realized and unrealized gains
(losses) are allocated to each class of the Fund on a daily basis, based on the relative net assets of each class, for purposes of determining the net asset value of each class.
Federal Income Tax Status
The Fund intends to qualify each year as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended, and will distribute substantially all of its taxable income (including net short-term capital gains), if any, for its tax year, and as such will not be subject to federal income taxes. In addition, the Fund intends to distribute in each calendar year substantially all of its net investment income, capital gains and certain other amounts, if any, such that the Fund should not be subject to federal excise tax. Therefore, no federal income or excise tax provision is recorded.
Distributions to Shareholders
Distributions from net investment income, if any, are declared daily and paid monthly. Net realized capital gains, if any, are distributed at least annually. Income distributions and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP.
Guarantees and Indemnifications
Under the Trust's organizational documents and, in some cases, by contract, its officers and trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Trust or its funds. In addition, certain of the Fund's contracts with its service providers contain general indemnification clauses. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown since the amount of any future claims that may be made against the Fund cannot be determined, and the Fund has no historical basis for predicting the likelihood of any such claims.
Recent Accounting Pronouncement
Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities
In December 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2011-11, Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities and in January 2013, ASU No. 2013-1, Clarifying the Scope of Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities (collectively, the ASUs). Specifically, the ASUs require an entity to disclose both gross and net information for derivatives and other financial instruments that are subject to a master netting arrangement or similar agreement. The ASUs require disclosure of collateral received in connection with the master netting agreements or similar agreements. The disclosure requirements are effective for interim and annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. At this time,
Annual Report 2013

April 30, 2013
management is evaluating the implications of this guidance and the impact it will have on the financial statement amounts and footnote disclosures, if any.
Note 3. Fees and Compensation Paid to Affiliates
Investment Management Fees
Under an Investment Management Services Agreement, Columbia Management Investment Advisers, LLC (the Investment Manager), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Ameriprise Financial, Inc. (Ameriprise Financial), determines which securities will be purchased, held or sold. The investment management fee is an annual fee that is equal to a percentage of the Fund's average daily net assets that declines from 0.43% to 0.30% as the Fund's net assets increase. The effective investment management fee rate for the year ended April 30, 2013 was 0.43% of the Fund's average daily net assets.
Administration Fees
Under an Administrative Services Agreement, the Investment Manager also serves as the Fund Administrator. The Fund pays the Fund Administrator an annual fee for administration and accounting services equal to a percentage of the Fund's average daily net assets that declines from 0.07% to 0.04% as the Fund's net assets increase. The effective administration fee rate for the year ended April 30, 2013 was 0.07% of the Fund's average daily net assets.
Compensation of Board Members
Board members are compensated for their services to the Fund as disclosed in the Statement of Operations. The Trust's eligible Trustees may participate in a Deferred Compensation Plan (the Plan) which may be terminated at any time. Obligations of the Plan will be paid solely out of the Fund's assets.
Compensation of Chief Compliance Officer
The Board has appointed a Chief Compliance Officer to the Fund in accordance with federal securities regulations. The Fund pays its pro-rata share of the expenses associated with the Chief Compliance Officer. The Fund's expenses for the Chief Compliance Officer will not exceed $15,000 per year.
Transfer Agent Fees
Under a Transfer and Dividend Disbursing Agent Agreement, Columbia Management Investment Services Corp. (the Transfer Agent), an affiliate of the Investment Manager and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Ameriprise Financial, is responsible for providing transfer agency services to the Fund.
The Transfer Agent has contracted with Boston Financial Data Services (BFDS) to serve as sub-transfer agent.
The Transfer Agent receives monthly account-based service fees based on the number of open accounts and also receives sub-transfer agency fees based on a percentage of the average aggregate value of the Fund's shares maintained in omnibus accounts (other than omnibus accounts for which American Enterprise Investment Services Inc. is the broker of record or accounts where the beneficial shareholder is a customer of Ameriprise Financial Services, Inc., which are paid a per account fee). The Transfer Agent pays the fees of BFDS for services as sub-transfer agent and is not entitled to reimbursement for such fees from the Fund (with the exception of out-of-pocket fees).
The Transfer Agent also receives compensation from fees for various shareholder services and reimbursements for certain out-of-pocket fees. Class I shares do not pay transfer agent fees. Total transfer agent fees for Class R5 shares are subject to an annual limitation of not more than 0.05% of the average daily net assets attributable to Class R5 shares. Beginning November 1, 2012, Class Y shares are not subject to transfer agent fees for at least twelve months.
For the year ended April 30, 2013, the Fund's effective transfer agent fee rates as a percentage of average daily net assets of each class were as follows:
Class A | | | 0.20 | % | |
Class B | | | 0.20 | | |
Class C | | | 0.20 | | |
Class R | | | 0.20 | | |
Class R4* | | | 0.20 | | |
Class R5* | | | 0.05 | | |
Class T | | | 0.20 | | |
Class W | | | 0.20 | | |
Class Y | | | 0.00 | ** | |
Class Z | | | 0.20 | | |
*Annualized
**Rounds to zero
An annual minimum account balance fee of $20 may apply to certain accounts with a value below the Fund's initial minimum investment requirements to reduce the impact of small accounts on transfer agent fees. These minimum account balance fees are recorded as part of expense reductions in the Statement of Operations. For the year ended April 30, 2013, these minimum account balance fees reduced total expenses by $2,687.

Distribution and Service Fees
The Fund has an agreement with Columbia Management Investment Distributors, Inc. (the Distributor), an affiliate of the Investment Manager and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Ameriprise Financial, for distribution and shareholder services. Pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act, the Board has approved, and the Fund has adopted, distribution and shareholder service plans (the Plans) which set the distribution and service fees for the Fund. These fees are calculated daily and are intended to compensate the Distributor and/or eligible selling and/or servicing agents for selling shares of the Fund and providing services to investors.
The Plans require the payment of a monthly service fee to the Distributor at the maximum annual rate of 0.25% of the average daily net assets attributable to Class A, Class B, Class C and Class W shares of the Fund. The Plans also require the payment of a monthly distribution fee to the Distributor at the maximum annual rates of 0.75%, 0.75%, 0.50% and 0.25% of the average daily net assets attributable to Class B, Class C, Class R and Class W shares, respectively.
The Distributor has voluntarily agreed to waive a portion of the distribution fee for Class C shares so that the combined distribution and service fee does not exceed 0.85% annually of the average daily net assets attributable to Class C shares. This arrangement may be modified or terminated by the Distributor at any time.
The Fund may pay a distribution fee up to 0.25% of the Fund's average daily net assets attributable to Class W shares and a service fee of up to 0.25% of the Fund's average daily net assets attributable to Class W shares, provided, however, that the aggregate fee shall not exceed 0.25% of the Fund's average daily net assets attributable to Class W shares.
Shareholder Services Fees
The Fund has adopted a shareholder services plan that permits it to pay for certain services provided to Class T shareholders by their selling and/or servicing agents. The Fund may pay shareholder servicing fees up to an aggregate annual rate of 0.40% of the Fund's average daily net assets attributable to Class T shares (comprised of up to 0.20% for shareholder liaison services and up to 0.20% for administrative support services). These fees are currently limited to an aggregate annual rate of not more than 0.15% of the Fund's average daily net assets attributable to Class T shares. In addition, the shareholder servicing fee shall be waived by the selling and/or servicing agents to the extent necessary to prevent net investment income from falling below 0.00% on a daily basis. The effective shareholder services fee rate for the year ended
April 30, 2013 was 0.15% of the Fund's average daily net assets attributable to Class T shares.
Sales Charges
Sales charges, including front-end charges and CDSCs, received by the Distributor for distributing Fund shares were $98,396 for Class A, $1,715 for Class B, $826 for Class C and $3,361 for Class T shares for the year ended April 30, 2013.
Expenses Waived/Reimbursed by the Investment Manager and its Affiliates
The Investment Manager and certain of its affiliates have contractually agreed to waive fees and/or reimburse expenses (excluding certain fees and expenses described below) for the periods disclosed below, unless sooner terminated at the sole discretion of the Board, so that the Fund's net operating expenses, after giving effect to fees waived/expenses reimbursed and any balance credits and/or overdraft charges from the Fund's custodian, do not exceed the following annual rates as a percentage of the class' average daily net assets:
| | August 1, 2012 through August 31, 2013 | | Prior to August 1, 2012 | |
Class A | | | 0.94 | % | | | 0.80 | % | |
Class B | | | 1.69 | | | | 1.55 | | |
Class C | | | 1.69 | | | | 1.55 | | |

Class Y | | | 0.53 | | | | 0.55 | | |
Class Z | | | 0.69 | | | | 0.55 | | |
*Annual rate is contractual from November 8, 2012 (the commencement of operations of each share class) through November 8, 2013.
Under the agreement governing these fee waivers and/or expense reimbursement arrangements, the following fees and expenses are excluded from the waiver/reimbursement commitment, and therefore will be paid by the Fund, if applicable: taxes (including foreign transaction taxes), expenses associated with investments in affiliated and non-affiliated pooled investment vehicles (including mutual funds and exchange traded funds), transaction costs and brokerage commissions, costs related to any securities lending program, dividend expenses associated with securities sold short, inverse floater program fees and expenses, transaction charges and interest on borrowed money, interest,

extraordinary expenses and any other expenses the exclusion of which is specifically approved by the Board. This agreement may be modified or amended only with approval from all parties. Class C distribution fees waived by the Distributor, as discussed above, are in addition to the waiver/reimbursement commitment under the agreement.
Note 4. Federal Tax Information
The timing and character of income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP because of temporary or permanent book to tax differences.
At April 30, 2013, these differences are primarily due to differing treatment for principal and/or interest of fixed income securities, deferral/reversal of wash sales losses, Trustees' deferred compensation, distribution reclassifications, post-October capital losses and derivative investments. To the extent these differences are permanent, reclassifications are made among the components of the Fund's net assets in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Temporary differences do not require reclassifications. In the Statement of Assets and Liabilities the following reclassifications were made:
Undistributed net investment income | | $ | 2,818,800 | | |
Accumulated net realized loss | | | (2,818,797 | ) | |
Paid-in capital | | | (3 | ) | |
Net investment income and net realized gains (losses), as disclosed in the Statement of Operations, and net assets were not affected by this reclassification.
The tax character of distributions paid during the periods indicated was as follows:
| | Year Ended April 30, 2013 | | Period Ended April 30, 2012 | | Year Ended March 31, 2012 | |
Ordinary income | | $ | 48,223,096 | | | $ | 4,766,712 | | | $ | 79,190,890 | | |
Long-term capital gains | | | 33,500,087 | | | | — | | | | 19,031,835 | | |
Total | | $ | 81,723,183 | | | $ | 4,766,712 | | | $ | 98,222,725 | | |
Short-term capital gain distributions, if any, are considered ordinary income distributions for tax purposes.
At April 30, 2013, the components of distributable earnings on a tax basis were as follows:
Undistributed ordinary income | | $ | 1,243,709 | | |
Undistributed accumulated long-term gain | | | 24,784,930 | | |
Accumulated realized loss | | | (806,591 | ) | |
Unrealized appreciation | | | 78,540,712 | | |
At April 30, 2013, the cost of investments for federal income tax purposes was $1,295,357,157 and the aggregate gross unrealized appreciation and depreciation based on that cost was:
Unrealized appreciation | | $ | 83,927,758 | | |
Unrealized depreciation | | | (5,387,046 | ) | |
Net unrealized appreciation | | $ | 78,540,712 | | |
Under current tax rules, regulated investment companies can elect to treat certain late-year ordinary losses incurred and post-October capital losses (capital losses realized after October 31) as arising on the first day of the following taxable year. As of April 30, 2013, the Fund will elect to treat post-October capital losses of $806,591 as arising on May 1, 2013.
Management of the Fund has concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions that would require recognition in the financial statements. However, management's conclusion may be subject to review and adjustment at a later date based on factors including, but not limited to, new tax laws, regulations, and administrative interpretations (including relevant court decisions). Generally, the Fund's federal tax returns for the prior three fiscal years remain subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service.
Note 5. Portfolio Information
The cost of purchases and proceeds from sales of securities, excluding short-term obligations, aggregated to $3,149,647,081 and $3,694,119,583, respectively, for the year ended April 30, 2013, of which $2,852,101,917 and $3,150,846,927, respectively, were U.S. government securities.
Note 6. Lending of Portfolio Securities
Effective December 19, 2012, the Fund no longer participates in securities lending activity. Prior to that date, the Fund participated, or was eligible to participate, in securities lending activity pursuant to a Master Securities Lending Agreement (the Agreement) with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (JPMorgan). The Agreement authorized JPMorgan as lending agent to lend securities to authorized borrowers in order to generate additional income on behalf of the Fund. Pursuant to the Agreement, the securities loaned were secured by cash or securities that either were issued or guaranteed as to principal and interest by the U.S. government, its agencies, authorities or instrumentalities with value equal to at least 100% of the market value of the loaned securities. Any additional collateral required to maintain those levels due to market fluctuations of the loaned securities was requested to be delivered the following business day. Cash collateral received was invested by the lending agent on behalf of the Fund into authorized investments pursuant to the Agreement.

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
April 30, 2013
Pursuant to the Agreement, the Fund received income for lending its securities either in the form of fees or by earning interest on invested cash collateral, net of negotiated rebates paid to borrowers and fees paid to the lending agent for services provided and any other securities lending expenses. Net income earned from securities lending for the year ended April 30, 2013 is disclosed in the Statement of Operations. The Fund continued to earn and accrue interest and dividends on the securities loaned.
Note 7. Affiliated Money Market Fund
The Fund invests its daily cash balances in Columbia Short-Term Cash Fund, an affiliated money market fund established for the exclusive use by the Fund and other affiliated funds. The income earned by the Fund from such investments is included as "Dividends — affiliated issuers" in the Statement of Operations. As an investing fund, the Fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of the expenses of Columbia Short-Term Cash Fund.
Note 8. Shareholder Concentration
At April 30, 2013, one unaffiliated shareholder account owned 75.2% of the outstanding shares of the Fund. The Fund has no knowledge about whether any portion of those shares was owned beneficially by such account. Subscription and redemption activity by concentrated accounts may have a significant effect on the operations of the Fund.
Note 9. Line of Credit
The Fund has entered into a revolving credit facility with a syndicate of banks led by JPMorgan whereby the Fund may borrow for the temporary funding of shareholder redemptions or for other temporary or emergency purposes. The credit facility agreement, as amended, which is a collective agreement between the Fund and certain other funds managed by the Investment Manager, severally and not jointly, permits collective borrowings up to $500 million. Interest is charged to each participating fund based on its borrowings at a rate equal to the higher of (i) the overnight federal funds rate plus 1.00% or (ii) the one-month LIBOR rate plus 1.00%. Each borrowing under the credit facility matures no later than 60 days after the date of borrowing. The Fund also pays a commitment fee equal to its pro rata share of the amount of the credit facility at a rate of 0.08% per annum.
The Fund had no borrowings during the year ended April 30, 2013.
Note 10. Significant Risks
Asset-Backed Securities Risk
The value of asset-backed securities may be affected by, among other factors, changes in interest rates, the market's assessment of the quality of underlying assets, the creditworthiness of the servicer for the underlying assets, factors concerning the interests in and structure of the issuer or the originator of the underlying assets, or the creditworthiness or rating of the entities that provide any supporting letters of credit, surety bonds, derivative instruments, or other credit enhancement. The value of asset-backed securities also will be affected by the exhaustion, termination or expiration of any credit enhancement. Most asset-backed securities are subject to prepayment risk, which is the possibility that the underlying debt may be refinanced or prepaid prior to maturity during periods of declining or low interest rates, causing the Fund to have to reinvest the money received in securities that have lower yields. In addition, the impact of prepayments on the value of asset-backed securities may be difficult to predict and may result in greater volatility.
Mortgage-Backed Securities Risk
The value of mortgage-backed securities may be affected by, among other things, changes in interest rates, factors concerning the interests in and structure of the issuer or the originator of the mortgages, the creditworthiness of the entities that provide any supporting letters of credit, surety bonds or other credit enhancements or the quality of underlying assets or the market's assessment thereof. Mortgage-backed securities are subject to prepayment risk, which is the possibility that the underlying mortgage may be refinanced or prepaid prior to maturity during periods of declining or low interest rates, causing the Fund to have to reinvest the money received in securities that have lower yields. In addition, the impact of prepayments on the value of mortgage-backed securities may be difficult to predict and may result in greater volatility.
Note 11. Subsequent Events
Management has evaluated the events and transactions that have occurred through the date the financial statements were issued and noted no items requiring adjustment of the financial statements or additional disclosure.
Note 12. Information Regarding Pending and Settled Legal Proceedings
In December 2005, without admitting or denying the allegations, American Express Financial Corporation (AEFC, which is now known as Ameriprise Financial, Inc. (Ameriprise Financial)) entered into settlement agreements with the
Annual Report 2013
45
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
April 30, 2013
Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and Minnesota Department of Commerce (MDOC) related to market timing activities. As a result, AEFC was censured and ordered to cease and desist from committing or causing any violations of certain provisions of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, the Investment Company Act of 1940, and various Minnesota laws. AEFC agreed to pay disgorgement of $10 million and civil money penalties of $7 million. AEFC also agreed to retain an independent distribution consultant to assist in developing a plan for distribution of all disgorgement and civil penalties ordered by the SEC in accordance with various undertakings detailed at www.sec.gov/litigation/admin/ia-2451.pdf. Ameriprise Financial and its affiliates have cooperated with the SEC and the MDOC in these legal proceedings, and have made regular reports to the funds' Boards of Trustees.
Ameriprise Financial and certain of its affiliates have historically been involved in a number of legal, arbitration and regulatory proceedings, including routine litigation, class actions, and governmental actions, concerning matters arising in connection with the conduct of their business activities. Ameriprise Financial believes that the Funds are not currently the subject of, and that neither Ameriprise Financial nor any of its affiliates are the subject of, any pending legal, arbitration or regulatory proceedings that are likely to have a material adverse effect on the Funds or the ability of Ameriprise Financial or its affiliates to perform under their contracts with the Funds. Ameriprise Financial is required to make 10-Q, 10-K and, as necessary, 8-K filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission on legal and regulatory matters that relate to Ameriprise Financial and its affiliates. Copies of these filings may be obtained by accessing the SEC website at www.sec.gov.
There can be no assurance that these matters, or the adverse publicity associated with them, will not result in increased fund redemptions, reduced sale of fund shares or other adverse consequences to the Funds. Further, although we believe proceedings are not likely to have a material adverse effect on the Funds or the ability of Ameriprise Financial or its affiliates to perform under their contracts with the Funds, these proceedings are subject to uncertainties and, as such, we are unable to estimate the possible loss or range of loss that may result. An adverse outcome in one or more of these proceedings could result in adverse judgments, settlements, fines, penalties or other relief that could have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial condition or results of operations of Ameriprise Financial.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Trustees of Columbia Funds Series Trust I and the Shareholders of
Columbia Bond Fund
In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the portfolio of investments, and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Columbia Bond Fund (the "Fund") (a series of Columbia Funds Series Trust I) at April 30, 2013, the results of its operations, the changes in its net assets and the financial highlights for the periods indicated, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as "financial statements") are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at April 30, 2013 by correspondence with the custodian, transfer agent and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Similar to 2012, equities once again were the best performing asset class in the first quarter of 2013. The S&P 500 Index reached an all-time closing high on the last trading day of the quarter and pushed through its October 2007 peak. Although global equities have performed well year-to-date, there is significant performance divergence among regions. In local currency terms, Japanese equities were the best performing developed market globally, and U.S. stocks outperformed most other global equity markets. European equities rose in the first quarter but trailed U.S. stocks and had a turbulent March, as investors were reminded of instability in the eurozone with news of a banking crisis in Cyprus.
Although all 10 sectors of the S&P 500 Index delivered positive returns, this was a rally led by defensive stocks such as those in health care, consumer staples and utilities. Materials and technology stocks were the weakest sectors.
High yield leads fixed income; most sectors flat to down
The fixed-income markets lagged equities with modest, single-digit returns coming from municipals and high-yield sectors in the United States. Most government and investment-grade credit sectors were roughly flat to down for the first quarter of 2013. Emerging market bonds were the biggest disappointment with single-digit losses.
Columbia Management to begin delivering summary prospectuses
Each Columbia fund is required to update its prospectus on an annual basis. Beginning with June 2013 prospectus updates, shareholders of Columbia retail mutual funds will start to receive a summary prospectus, rather than the full length (statutory) mutual fund prospectus they have received in the past.
Each fund's summary prospectus will include the following key information:
> Investment objective
> Fee and expense table
> Portfolio turnover rate information
> Principal investment strategies, principal risks and performance information
> Management information
> Purchase and sale information
> Tax information
> Financial intermediary compensation information
Each fund's statutory prospectus will contain additional information about the fund and its risks. Both the statutory and summary prospectus will be updated each year, and will be available at columbiamanagement.com. Shareholders may request a printed version of a statutory prospectus at no cost by calling 800.345.6611 or sending an email to serviceinquiries@columbiamanagement.com.

Manager Discussion of Fund Performance
For the 12-month period that ended April 30, 2013, the Fund's Class A shares returned 2.06% excluding sales charges, while the benchmark Citigroup Bond U.S. Treasury Index posted a total return of 2.53% over the same period. The Fund incurs expenses while the index does not, and fees generally accounted for the difference between the Fund's return and that of the index.
U.S. Economy: Growth in the Slow Lane
Europe's general economic woes, a financial crisis in Cyprus and U.S. struggles to avoid a fiscal cliff of tax increases and various spending cuts (commonly referred to as the sequester) weighed on the global economy throughout the 12-month period ended April 30, 2013. Late in the period, the sequester clouded consumer confidence in the United States, even though it has had little material impact on the economy to date. However, a decrease in the U.S. unemployment rate early in 2013, steady manufacturing activity and a rebound in the housing market are encouraging signs that growth has broadened in recent months. Pent-up demand, low mortgage rates and an improving labor market have lifted home sales. Even so, there has been no real improvement in the overall pace of economic growth since the current cycle of recovery began in 2009. Household income growth is practically nonexistent, and household spending has come under pressure after the expiration of the payroll tax cut. Against this backdrop, U.S. investors bid prices higher on stocks and other volatile assets as central banks continued to pour liquidity into key markets.
Treasury Yields Changed Modestly
Yields on U.S. Treasury securities traded at low levels and within a moderate range over the 12-month period. The combination of low yields and relatively stable prices resulted in modest, but positive, total returns in the overall Treasury market. Consistent with our mandate, we kept the Fund's portfolio in line with the benchmark Citigroup Bond U.S. Treasury Index, and the Fund's total return was consistent with that of the benchmark before deduction of fees.
The Treasury market exhibited some volatility at the start of the period. Fears about sovereign debt problems in Europe and slowing growth in China created uncertainty in the capital markets, and investors sought out U.S. Treasuries as the safest haven in a time of anxiety. Treasury yields fell as prices rose, with the yield on 10-year Treasuries declining from 1.91% to approximately 1.40% during the summer of 2012. From August to December, the volatility subsided, and Treasury yields moved within a relatively narrow trading range. A temporary resolution of fiscal cliff issues in late December and a better growth outlook for the U.S. economy in the first quarter of 2013 pushed the yield on the 10-year Treasury as high as 2.06% by mid-March 2013. However, further global economic weakness and continued accommodative monetary policies by central banks around the globe moved yields lower from the mid-March high. (Bond prices and yields move in opposite directions.)
Against this backdrop, longer term Treasuries outperformed both intermediate and shorter term securities. The 30-year Treasury yield declined from 3.11% to 2.88% over the 12-month period, while the 10-year Treasury yield fell from 1.91% to 1.67% and the five-year Treasury declined from 0.81% to 0.68%. The duration of the Citigroup Treasury benchmark — and the Fund — remained around five years. Duration is a measure of interest rate sensitivity, similar to maturity.

Bond ratings apply to the underlying holdings of the Fund and not the Fund itself and are divided into categories ranging from AAA (highest) to D (lowest), and are subject to change. The ratings shown are determined by using the middle rating of Moody's, S&P, and Fitch after dropping the highest and lowest available ratings. When a rating from only two agencies is available, the lower rating is used. When a rating from only one agency is available, that rating is used. When a bond is not rated by any of these agencies, it is designated as Not rated. Credit ratings are subjective opinions and not statements of fact.

Manager Discussion of Fund Performance (continued)
Looking Ahead
At present, we believe that U.S. Treasury yields should continue to remain relatively stable in the coming months. Central banks around the globe currently appear determined to keep interest rates low to encourage greater economic growth. In the United States, the Federal Reserve continues to purchase Treasury and mortgage securities in an effort to stimulate growth, and comparable policies have been implemented by central bankers in Europe and Japan.
However, this does not rule out the possibility of an event that could prompt a change in monetary policy — for example, a sudden surge in the employment market or rising inflation. An unexpected downturn in the current rate of growth could prompt even more aggressive monetary accommodation and lead to even lower rates. Unforeseen events overseas could also have an impact on the markets. However, in the absence of an unusual event, we think that low interest rates, with relatively modest changes in yields, is the most likely outlook for the U.S. Treasury market.

Understanding Your Fund's Expenses
(Unaudited)
As an investor, you incur two types of costs. There are transaction costs, which generally include sales charges on purchases and may include redemption fees. There are also ongoing costs, which generally include management fees, distribution and service (Rule 12b-1) fees, and other fund expenses. The following information is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to help you compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
Analyzing Your Fund's Expenses
To illustrate these ongoing costs, we have provided examples and calculated the expenses paid by investors in each share class of the Fund during the period. The actual and hypothetical information in the table is based on an initial investment of $1,000 at the beginning of the period indicated and held for the entire period. Expense information is calculated two ways and each method provides you with different information. The amount listed in the "Actual" column is calculated using the Fund's actual operating expenses and total return for the period. You may use the Actual information, together with the amount 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 results by the expenses paid during the period under the Actual column. The amount listed in the "Hypothetical" column assumes a 5% annual rate of return before expenses (which is not the Fund's actual return) and then applies the Fund's actual expense ratio for the period to the hypothetical return. You should not use the hypothetical account values and expenses to estimate either your actual account balance at the end of the period or the expenses you paid during the period. See "Compare With Other Funds" below for details on how to use the hypothetical data.
Compare With Other Funds
Since all mutual funds are required to include the same hypothetical calculations about expenses in shareholder reports, you can use this information to compare the ongoing cost of investing in the Fund with other funds. To do so, compare the hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of other funds. As you compare hypothetical examples of other funds, it is important to note that hypothetical examples are meant to highlight the ongoing costs of investing in a fund only and do not reflect any transaction costs, such as sales charges, or redemption or exchange fees. Therefore, the hypothetical calculations are useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. If transaction costs were included in these calculations, your costs would be higher.

*For the period November 8, 2012 through April 30, 2013. Class R5 shares commenced operations on November 8, 2012.
Expenses paid during the period are equal to the annualized expense ratio for each class as indicated above, multiplied by the average account value over the period and then multiplied by the number of days in the Fund's most recent fiscal half year and divided by 365.
Expenses do not include fees and expenses incurred indirectly by the Fund from the underlying funds in which the Fund may invest (also referred to as "acquired funds"), including affiliated and non-affiliated pooled investment vehicles (including mutual funds and exchange-traded funds).
Had Columbia Management Investment Advisers, LLC and/or certain of its affiliates not waived/reimbursed certain fees and expenses, account value at the end of the period would have been reduced.

Notes to Portfolio of Investments
(a) The rate shown is the seven-day current annualized yield at April 30, 2013.
(b) As defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, an affiliated company is one in which the Fund owns 5% or more of its outstanding voting securities, or a company which is under common ownership or control with the Fund. Holdings and transactions in these affiliated companies during the year ended April 30, 2013, are as follows:
Issuer | | Beginning Cost ($) | | Purchase Cost ($) | | Proceeds From Sales ($) | | Ending Cost ($) | | Dividends — Affiliated Issuers ($) | | Value ($) | |
Columbia Short-Term Cash Fund | | | 1,575,652 | | | | 62,114,884 | | | | (62,176,017 | ) | | | 1,514,519 | | | | 1,175 | | | | 1,514,519 | | |
Fair Value Measurements
Generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) require disclosure regarding the inputs and valuation techniques used to measure fair value and any changes in valuation inputs or techniques. In addition, investments shall be disclosed by major category.
The Fund categorizes its fair value measurements according to a three-level hierarchy that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by prioritizing that the most observable input be used when available. Observable inputs are those that market participants would use in pricing an investment based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity. Unobservable inputs are those that reflect the Fund's assumptions about the information market participants would use in pricing an investment. An investment's level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is deemed significant to the asset or liability's fair value measurement. The input levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with investments at that level. For example, certain U.S. government securities are generally high quality and liquid, however, they are reflected as Level 2 because the inputs used to determine fair value may not always be quoted prices in an active market.
Fair value inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:
> Level 1 — Valuations based on quoted prices for investments in active markets that the Fund has the ability to access at the measurement date (including NAV for open-end mutual funds). Valuation adjustments are not applied to Level 1 investments.
> Level 2 — Valuations based on other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risks, etc.).
> Level 3 — Valuations based on significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund's own assumptions and judgment in determining the fair value of investments).
Inputs that are used in determining fair value of an investment may include price information, credit data, volatility statistics, and other factors. These inputs can be either observable or unobservable. The availability of observable inputs can vary between investments, and is affected by various factors such as the type of investment, and the volume and level of activity for that investment or similar investments in the marketplace. The inputs will be considered by the Investment Manager, along with any other relevant factors in the calculation of an investment's fair value. The Fund uses prices and inputs that are current as of the measurement date, which may include periods of market dislocations. During these periods, the availability of prices and inputs may be reduced for many investments. This condition could cause an investment to be reclassified between the various levels within the hierarchy.
Investments falling into the Level 3 category are primarily supported by quoted prices from brokers and dealers participating in the market for those investments. However, these may be classified as Level 3 investments due to lack of market transparency and corroboration to support these quoted prices. Additionally, valuation models may be used as the pricing source for any remaining investments classified as Level 3. These models may rely on one or more significant unobservable inputs and/or significant assumptions by the Investment Manager. Inputs used in valuations may include, but are not limited to, financial statement analysis, capital account balances, discount rates and estimated cash flows, and comparable company data.
Under the direction of the Fund's Board of Trustees (the Board), the Investment Manager's Valuation Committee (the Committee) is responsible for carrying out the valuation procedures approved by the Board. The Committee consists of voting and non-voting members from various groups within the Investment Manager's organization, including operations and accounting, trading and investments, compliance, risk management and legal.
The Committee meets at least monthly to review and approve valuation matters, which may include a description of specific valuation determinations, data regarding pricing information received from approved pricing vendors and brokers and the results of Board-approved valuation control policies and procedures (the Policies). The Policies address, among other things, instances when market quotations are readily available, including recommendations of third party pricing vendors and a determination of appropriate pricing methodologies; events that require specific valuation determinations and assessment of fair value techniques; securities with a potential for stale pricing, including those that are illiquid, restricted, or in default; and the effectiveness of third-party pricing vendors, including periodic reviews of vendors. The Committee meets more frequently, as needed, to discuss additional valuation matters, which may include the need to review back-testing results, review time-sensitive information or approve related valuation actions. The Committee reports to the Board, with members of the Committee meeting with the Board at each of its regularly scheduled meetings to discuss valuation matters and actions during the period, similar to those described earlier.

Fair Value Measurements (continued)
For investments categorized as Level 3, the Committee monitors information similar to that described above, which may include: (i) data specific to the issuer or comparable issuers, (ii) general market or specific sector news and (iii) quoted prices and specific or similar security transactions. The Committee considers this data and any changes from prior periods in order to assess the reasonableness of observable and unobservable inputs, any assumptions or internal models used to value those securities and changes in fair value. This data is also used to corroborate, when available, information received from approved pricing vendors and brokers. Various factors impact the frequency of monitoring this information (which may occur as often as daily). However, the Committee may determine that changes to inputs, assumptions and models are not required as a result of the monitoring procedures performed.
The following table is a summary of the inputs used to value the Fund's investments at April 30, 2013:

Columbia U.S. Treasury Index Fund
Notes to Financial Statements
April 30, 2013
Note 1. Organization
Columbia U.S. Treasury Index Fund (the Fund), a series of Columbia Funds Series Trust I (the Trust), is a diversified fund. The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust.
Fund Shares
The Trust may issue an unlimited number of shares (without par value). The Fund offers Class A, Class B, Class C, Class I, Class R5, Class W and Class Z shares. All share classes have identical voting, dividend and liquidation rights. Each share class has its own expense structure and sales charges, as applicable.
Class A shares are subject to a maximum front-end sales charge of 4.75% based on the initial investment amount. Class A shares purchased without an initial sales charge in accounts aggregating $1 million to $50 million at the time of purchase are subject to a contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC) if the shares are sold within 18 months of purchase, charged as follows: 1.00% CDSC if redeemed within 12 months of purchase, and 0.50% CDSC if redeemed more than 12, but less than 18, months after purchase.
Class B shares may be subject to a maximum CDSC of 5.00% based upon the holding period after purchase. Class B shares will generally convert to Class A shares eight years after purchase. The Fund no longer accepts investments by new or existing investors in the Fund's Class B shares, except in connection with the reinvestment of any dividend and/or capital gain distributions in Class B shares of the Fund and exchanges by existing Class B shareholders of certain other funds within the Columbia Family of Funds.
Class C shares are subject to a 1.00% CDSC on shares redeemed within one year of purchase.
Class I shares are not subject to sales charges and are available only to the Columbia Family of Funds.
Class R5 shares are not subject to sales charges and are generally available only to investors purchasing through authorized investment professionals and omnibus retirement plans. Class R5 shares commenced operations on November 8, 2012.
Class W shares are not subject to sales charges and are available only to investors purchasing through authorized investment programs managed by investment professionals, including discretionary managed account programs. Class W shares commenced operations on June 18, 2012.
Class Z shares are not subject to sales charges, and are available only to certain investors.
Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements.
Security Valuation
Debt securities generally are valued by pricing services approved by the Board of Trustees (the Board) based upon market transactions for normal, institutional-size trading units of similar securities. The services may use various pricing techniques which take into account appropriate factors such as yield, quality, coupon rate, maturity, type of issue, trading characteristics and other data, as well as broker quotes. Debt securities for which quotations are readily available may also be valued based upon an over-the-counter or exchange bid quotation.
Investments in other open-end investment companies, including money market funds, are valued at net asset value.
Investments for which market quotations are not readily available, or that have quotations which management believes are not reliable, are valued at fair value as determined in good faith under consistently applied procedures established by and under the general supervision of the Board. If a security or class of securities (such as foreign securities) is valued at fair value, such value is likely to be different from the last quoted market price for the security.
The determination of fair value often requires significant judgment. To determine fair value, management may use assumptions including but not limited to future cash flows and estimated risk premiums. Multiple inputs from various sources may be used to determine fair value.
Security Transactions
Security transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Cost is determined and gains (losses) are based upon the specific identification method for both financial statement and federal income tax purposes.
Annual Report 2013
22
Columbia U.S. Treasury Index Fund
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
April 30, 2013
Income Recognition
Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis. Market premiums and discounts, including original issue discounts, are amortized and accreted, respectively, over the expected life of the security on all debt securities, unless otherwise noted.
Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date.
Expenses
General expenses of the Trust are allocated to the Fund and other funds of the Trust based upon relative net assets or other expense allocation methodologies determined by the nature of the expense. Expenses directly attributable to the Fund are charged to the Fund. Expenses directly attributable to a specific class of shares are charged to that share class.
Determination of Class Net Asset Value
All income, expenses (other than class-specific expenses, which are charged to that share class, as shown in the Statement of Operations) and realized and unrealized gains (losses) are allocated to each class of the Fund on a daily basis, based on the relative net assets of each class, for purposes of determining the net asset value of each class.
Federal Income Tax Status
The Fund intends to qualify each year as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended, and will distribute substantially all of its taxable income (including net short-term capital gains), if any, for its tax year, and as such will not be subject to federal income taxes. In addition, the Fund intends to distribute in each calendar year substantially all of its net investment income, capital gains and certain other amounts, if any, such that the Fund should not be subject to federal excise tax. Therefore, no federal income or excise tax provision is recorded.
Distributions to Shareholders
Distributions from net investment income, if any, are declared daily and paid monthly. Net realized capital gains, if any, are distributed at least annually. Income distributions and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP.
Guarantees and Indemnifications
Under the Trust's organizational documents and, in some cases, by contract, its officers and trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Trust or its funds. In addition, certain of the Fund's contracts with its service providers contain general indemnification clauses. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown since the amount of any future claims that may be made against the Fund cannot be
determined, and the Fund has no historical basis for predicting the likelihood of any such claims.
Recent Accounting Pronouncement
Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities
In December 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2011-11, Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities and in January 2013, ASU No. 2013-1, Clarifying the Scope of Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities (collectively, the ASUs). Specifically, the ASUs require an entity to disclose both gross and net information for derivatives and other financial instruments that are subject to a master netting arrangement or similar agreement. The ASUs require disclosure of collateral received in connection with the master netting agreements or similar agreements. The disclosure requirements are effective for interim and annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. At this time, management is evaluating the implications of this guidance and the impact it will have on the financial statement amounts and footnote disclosures, if any.
Note 3. Fees and Compensation Paid to Affiliates
Investment Management Fees
Under an Investment Management Services Agreement, Columbia Management Investment Advisers, LLC (the Investment Manager), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Ameriprise Financial, Inc. (Ameriprise Financial), determines which securities will be purchased, held or sold. The investment management fee is an annual fee that is equal to 0.10% of the Fund's average daily net assets.
Administration Fees
Under an Administrative Services Agreement, the Investment Manager also serves as the Fund Administrator. The Fund pays the Fund Administrator an annual fee for administration and accounting services equal to 0.30% of the Fund's average daily net assets.
The Investment Manager, from the administration fee it receives from the Fund, pays all operating expenses of the Fund, with the exception of brokerage fees and commissions, interest, fees and expenses of Trustees who are not officers, directors or employees of the Investment Manager or its affiliates, distribution (Rule 12b-1) and/or shareholder servicing and plan administration fees and any extraordinary non-recurring expenses that may arise, including litigation.
Transfer Agent Fees
Under a Transfer and Dividend Disbursing Agent Agreement, Columbia Management Investment Services Corp. (the
Annual Report 2013
23
Columbia U.S. Treasury Index Fund
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
April 30, 2013
Transfer Agent), an affiliate of the Investment Manager and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Ameriprise Financial, is responsible for providing transfer agency services to the Fund. The Transfer Agent has contracted with Boston Financial Data Services (BFDS) to serve as sub-transfer agent.
The transfer agent fees are payable by the Investment Manager. The Transfer Agent pays the fees of BFDS for services as sub-transfer agent and is not entitled to reimbursement for such fees from the Fund. The Transfer Agent also receives compensation from fees for various shareholder services and reimbursements for certain out-of-pocket expenses.
An annual minimum account balance fee of $20 may apply to certain accounts with a value below the Fund's initial minimum investment requirements to reduce the impact of small accounts on transfer agent fees. These minimum account balance fees are recorded as part of expense reductions in the Statement of Operations. For the year ended April 30, 2013, these minimum account balance fees reduced total expenses by $1,605.
Compensation of Board Members
Board members are compensated for their services to the Fund as disclosed in the Statement of Operations. The Trust's eligible Trustees may participate in a Deferred Compensation Plan (the Plan) which may be terminated at any time. Obligations of the Plan will be paid solely out of the Fund's assets.
Compensation of Chief Compliance Officer
The Board has appointed a Chief Compliance Officer to the Fund in accordance with federal securities regulations. The Fund pays its pro-rata share of the expenses associated with the Chief Compliance Officer. The Fund's expenses for the Chief Compliance Officer will not exceed $15,000 per year.
Distribution and Service Fees
The Fund has an agreement with Columbia Management Investment Distributors, Inc. (the Distributor), an affiliate of the Investment Manager and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Ameriprise Financial, for distribution and shareholder services. Pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act, the Board has approved, and the Fund has adopted, distribution and shareholder service plans (the Plans) which set the distribution and service fees for the Fund. These fees are calculated daily and are intended to compensate the Distributor and/or eligible selling and/or servicing agents for selling shares of the Fund and providing services to investors.
The Plans require the payment of a monthly service fee to the Distributor at the maximum annual rate of 0.25% of the average daily net assets attributable to Class A, Class B, Class C and Class W shares of the Fund. The Plans also
require the payment of a monthly distribution fee to the Distributor at the maximum annual rates of 0.75%, 0.75% and 0.25% of the average daily net assets attributable to Class B, Class C and Class W shares, respectively.
The Distributor has voluntarily agreed to waive a portion of the distribution fee for Class C shares so that it does not exceed 0.60% annually of the average daily net assets attributable to Class C shares. This arrangement may be modified or terminated by the Distributor at any time.
The Fund may pay a distribution fee up to 0.25% of the Fund's average daily net assets attributable to Class W shares and a service fee of up to 0.25% of the Fund's average daily net assets attributable to Class W shares, provided, however, that the aggregate fee shall not exceed 0.25% of the Fund's average daily net assets attributable to Class W shares.
Sales Charges
Sales charges, including front-end charges and CDSCs, received by the Distributor for distributing Fund shares were $49,389 for Class A, $5,166 for Class B and $2,372 for Class C shares for the year ended April 30, 2013.
Expenses Waived/Reimbursed by the Investment Manager and its Affiliates
The Investment Manager and certain of its affiliates have contractually agreed to waive fees and/or reimburse expenses (excluding certain fees and expenses described below), for the period disclosed below, unless sooner terminated at the sole discretion of the Board, so that the Fund's net operating expenses, after giving effect to fees waived/expenses reimbursed and any balance credits and/or overdraft charges from the Fund's custodian, do not exceed the following annual rates as a percentage of the class' average daily net assets:
| | Fee Rates Contractual through August 31, 2013 | |
Class A | | | 0.45 | % | |
Class B | | | 1.20 | | |
Class C | | | 1.20 | | |
Class I | | | 0.20 | | |
Class R5 | | | 0.20 | * | |
Class W | | | 0.45 | | |
Class Z | | | 0.20 | | |
*Annual rate is contractual from November 8, 2012 (the commencement of operations of Class R5 shares) through November 8, 2013.
Under the agreement governing these fee waivers and/or expense reimbursement arrangements, the following fees and expenses are excluded from the waiver/reimbursement commitment, and therefore will be paid by the Fund, if

applicable: taxes (including foreign transaction taxes), expenses associated with investments in affiliated and non-affiliated pooled investment vehicles (including mutual funds and exchange traded funds), transaction costs and brokerage commissions, costs related to any securities lending program, dividend expenses associated with securities sold short, inverse floater program fees and expenses, transaction charges and interest on borrowed money, interest, extraordinary expenses and any other expenses the exclusion of which is specifically approved by the Board. This agreement may be modified or amended only with approval from all parties. Class C distribution fees waived by the Distributor, as discussed above, are in addition to the waiver/reimbursement commitment under the agreement.
Note 4. Federal Tax Information
The timing and character of income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP because of temporary or permanent book to tax differences.
At April 30, 2013, these differences are primarily due to differing treatment for principal and/or interest of fixed income securities, deferral/reversal of wash sales losses and Trustees' deferred compensation. To the extent these differences are permanent, reclassifications are made among the components of the Fund's net assets in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Temporary differences do not require reclassifications. In the Statement of Assets and Liabilities the following reclassifications were made:
Undistributed net investment income | | $ | 142,657 | | |
Accumulated net realized gain | | | (142,657 | ) | |
Paid-in capital | | | — | | |
Net investment income and net realized gains (losses), as disclosed in the Statement of Operations, and net assets were not affected by this reclassification.
The tax character of distributions paid during the periods indicated was as follows:
| | Year Ended April 30, 2013 | | Period Ended April 30, 2012 | | Year Ended March 31, 2012 | |
Ordinary income | | $ | 10,166,584 | | | $ | 495,230 | | | $ | 12,047,239 | | |
Long-term capital gains | | | 7,206,789 | | | | — | | | | 921,785 | | |
Total | | $ | 17,373,373 | | | $ | 495,230 | | | $ | 12,969,024 | | |
Short-term capital gain distributions, if any, are considered ordinary income distributions for tax purposes.
At April 30, 2013, the components of distributable earnings on a tax basis were as follows:
Undistributed ordinary income | | $ | 978,086 | | |
Undistributed accumulated long-term gain | | | 2,849,258 | | |
Unrealized appreciation | | | 16,093,687 | | |
At April 30, 2013, the cost of investments for federal income tax purposes was $335,198,114 and the aggregate gross unrealized appreciation and depreciation based on that cost was:
Unrealized appreciation | | $ | 16,242,235 | | |
Unrealized depreciation | | | (148,549 | ) | |
Net unrealized appreciation | | $ | 16,093,686 | | |
Management of the Fund has concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions that would require recognition in the financial statements. However, management's conclusion may be subject to review and adjustment at a later date based on factors including, but not limited to, new tax laws, regulations, and administrative interpretations (including relevant court decisions). Generally, the Fund's federal tax returns for the prior three fiscal years remain subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service.
Note 5. Portfolio Information
The cost of purchases and proceeds from sales of securities, excluding short-term obligations, aggregated to $397,032,857 and $466,203,718, respectively, for the year ended April 30, 2013, of which $397,032,857 and $466,203,718, respectively, were U.S. government securities.
Note 6. Lending of Portfolio Securities
Effective December 19, 2012, the Fund no longer participates in securities lending activity. Prior to that date, the Fund participated, or was eligible to participate, in securities lending activity pursuant to a Master Securities Lending Agreement (the Agreement) with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (JPMorgan). The Agreement authorized JPMorgan as lending agent to lend securities to authorized borrowers in order to generate additional income on behalf of the Fund. Pursuant to the Agreement, the securities loaned were secured by cash or securities that either were issued or guaranteed as to principal and interest by the U.S. government, its agencies, authorities or instrumentalities with value equal to at least 100% of the market value of the loaned securities. Any additional collateral required to maintain those levels due to market fluctuations of the loaned securities was requested to be delivered the following business day. Cash collateral received was invested
Annual Report 2013
25
Columbia U.S. Treasury Index Fund
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
April 30, 2013
by the lending agent on behalf of the Fund into authorized investments pursuant to the Agreement.
Pursuant to the Agreement, the Fund received income for lending its securities either in the form of fees or by earning interest on invested cash collateral, net of negotiated rebates paid to borrowers and fees paid to the lending agent for services provided and any other securities lending expenses. Net income earned from securities lending for the year ended April 30, 2013 is disclosed in the Statement of Operations. The Fund continued to earn and accrue interest and dividends on the securities loaned.
Note 7. Affiliated Money Market Fund
The Fund invests its daily cash balances in Columbia Short-Term Cash Fund, an affiliated money market fund established for the exclusive use by the Fund and other affiliated funds. The income earned by the Fund from such investments is included as "Dividends — affiliated issuers" in the Statement of Operations. As an investing fund, the Fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of the expenses of Columbia Short-Term Cash Fund.
Note 8. Shareholder Concentration
At April 30, 2013, one unaffiliated shareholder account owned 21.6% of the outstanding shares of the Fund. The Fund has no knowledge about whether any portion of those shares was owned beneficially by such account. Affiliated shareholder accounts owned 26.0% of the outstanding shares of the Fund. Subscription and redemption activity by concentrated accounts may have a significant effect on the operations of the Fund.
Note 9. Line of Credit
The Fund has entered into a revolving credit facility with a syndicate of banks led by JPMorgan whereby the Fund may borrow for the temporary funding of shareholder redemptions or for other temporary or emergency purposes. The credit facility agreement, as amended, which is a collective agreement between the Fund and certain other funds managed by the Investment Manager, severally and not jointly, permits collective borrowings up to $500 million. Interest is charged to each participating fund based on its borrowings at a rate equal to the higher of (i) the overnight federal funds rate plus 1.00% or (ii) the one-month LIBOR rate plus 1.00%. Each borrowing under the credit facility matures no later than 60 days after the date of borrowing. The Fund also pays a commitment fee equal to its pro rata share of the amount of the credit facility at a rate of 0.08% per annum.
The Fund had no borrowings during the year ended April 30, 2013.
Note 10. Subsequent Events
Management has evaluated the events and transactions that have occurred through the date the financial statements were issued and noted no items requiring adjustment of the financial statements or additional disclosure.
Note 11. Information Regarding Pending and Settled Legal Proceedings
In December 2005, without admitting or denying the allegations, American Express Financial Corporation (AEFC, which is now known as Ameriprise Financial, Inc. (Ameriprise Financial)) entered into settlement agreements with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and Minnesota Department of Commerce (MDOC) related to market timing activities. As a result, AEFC was censured and ordered to cease and desist from committing or causing any violations of certain provisions of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, the Investment Company Act of 1940, and various Minnesota laws. AEFC agreed to pay disgorgement of $10 million and civil money penalties of $7 million. AEFC also agreed to retain an independent distribution consultant to assist in developing a plan for distribution of all disgorgement and civil penalties ordered by the SEC in accordance with various undertakings detailed at www.sec.gov/litigation/admin/ia-2451.pdf. Ameriprise Financial and its affiliates have cooperated with the SEC and the MDOC in these legal proceedings, and have made regular reports to the funds' Boards of Trustees.
Ameriprise Financial and certain of its affiliates have historically been involved in a number of legal, arbitration and regulatory proceedings, including routine litigation, class actions, and governmental actions, concerning matters arising in connection with the conduct of their business activities. Ameriprise Financial believes that the Funds are not currently the subject of, and that neither Ameriprise Financial nor any of its affiliates are the subject of, any pending legal, arbitration or regulatory proceedings that are likely to have a material adverse effect on the Funds or the ability of Ameriprise Financial or its affiliates to perform under their contracts with the Funds. Ameriprise Financial is required to make 10-Q, 10-K and, as necessary, 8-K filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission on legal and regulatory matters that relate to Ameriprise Financial and its affiliates. Copies of these filings may be obtained by accessing the SEC website at www.sec.gov.
There can be no assurance that these matters, or the adverse publicity associated with them, will not result in increased fund redemptions, reduced sale of fund shares or other adverse consequences to the Funds. Further, although we believe proceedings are not likely to have a material adverse effect on

26
Columbia U.S. Treasury Index Fund
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
April 30, 2013
the Funds or the ability of Ameriprise Financial or its affiliates to perform under their contracts with the Funds, these proceedings are subject to uncertainties and, as such, we are unable to estimate the possible loss or range of loss that may result. An adverse outcome in one or more of these proceedings could result in adverse judgments, settlements, fines, penalties or other relief that could have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial condition or results of operations of Ameriprise Financial.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Trustees of Columbia Funds Series Trust I and the Shareholders of Columbia U.S. Treasury Index Fund
In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the portfolio of investments, and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Columbia U.S. Treasury Index Fund (the "Fund") (a series of Columbia Funds Series Trust I) at April 30, 2013, the results of its operations, the changes in its net assets and the financial highlights for the periods indicated, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as "financial statements") are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at April 30, 2013 by correspondence with the custodian, transfer agent and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Columbia Corporate Income Fund

Columbia Corporate Income Fund
Dear Shareholders,
U.S. equities had a strong first quarter
Similar to 2012, equities once again were the best performing asset class in the first quarter of 2013. The S&P 500 Index reached an all-time closing high on the last trading day of the quarter and pushed through its October 2007 peak. Although global equities have performed well year-to-date, there is significant performance divergence among regions. In local currency terms, Japanese equities were the best performing developed market globally, and U.S. stocks outperformed most other global equity markets. European equities rose in the first quarter but trailed U.S. stocks and had a turbulent March, as investors were reminded of instability in the eurozone with news of a banking crisis in Cyprus.
Although all 10 sectors of the S&P 500 Index delivered positive returns, this was a rally led by defensive stocks such as those in health care, consumer staples and utilities. Materials and technology stocks were the weakest sectors.
High yield leads fixed income; most sectors flat to down
The fixed-income markets lagged equities with modest, single-digit returns coming from municipals and high-yield sectors in the United States. Most government and investment-grade credit sectors were roughly flat to down for the first quarter of 2013. Emerging market bonds were the biggest disappointment with single-digit losses.
Columbia Management to begin delivering summary prospectuses
Each Columbia fund is required to update its prospectus on an annual basis. Beginning with June 2013 prospectus updates, shareholders of Columbia retail mutual funds will start to receive a summary prospectus, rather than the full length (statutory) mutual fund prospectus they have received in the past.
Each fund's summary prospectus will include the following key information:
> Investment objective
> Fee and expense table
> Portfolio turnover rate information
> Principal investment strategies, principal risks and performance information
> Management information
> Purchase and sale information
> Tax information
> Financial intermediary compensation information
Each fund's statutory prospectus will contain additional information about the fund and its risks. Both the statutory and summary prospectus will be updated each year, and will be available at columbiamanagement.com. Shareholders may request a printed version of a statutory prospectus at no cost by calling 800.345.6611 or sending an email to serviceinquiries@columbiamanagement.com.

Absent these fee waivers or expense reimbursement arrangements, performance results would have been lower.
The performance information shown represents past performance and is not a guarantee of future results. The investment return and principal value of your investment will fluctuate so that your shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance information shown. You may obtain performance information current to the most recent month-end by contacting your financial intermediary, visiting columbiamanagement.com or calling 800.345.6611.
*The returns shown for periods prior to the share class inception date (including returns for the Life of the Fund, if shown, which are since Fund inception) include the returns of the Fund's oldest share class. These returns are adjusted to reflect any higher class-related operating expenses of the newer share classes, as applicable. Please visit columbiamanagement.com/mutual-funds/appended-performance for more information.

Manager Discussion of Fund Performance
For the 12-month period that ended April 30, 2013, the Fund's Class A shares returned 8.97% excluding sales charges. The Fund outperformed its primary benchmark, the Barclays U.S. Corporate Index, and its Blended Benchmark, which returned 7.92%, and 8.82%, respectively, during the same 12-month period.
Good security selection aided the Fund's outperformance relative to both benchmarks and helped offset the impact of underweights in financials and industrials, both of which were strong performing sectors for the period. Our emphasis on credit-sensitive areas, especially lower rated investment grade and high-yielding debt, contributed to the solid results.

Europe's general economic woes, a financial crisis in Cyprus and U.S. struggles to avoid a fiscal cliff of tax increases and spending cuts weighed on the global economy early in the 12-month period ended April 30, 2013. Late in the period, across-the-board budget cuts (the sequester) clouded consumer confidence in the United States, even though the sequester has had little material impact on the economy to date. However, a pickup in job growth early in 2013, steady manufacturing activity and a solid rebound in the housing market are encouraging signs that growth has broadened in recent months. Pent-up demand, low mortgage rates and an improving labor market have lifted home sales. Even so, there has been no real improvement in the overall pace of economic growth since the current cycle of recovery began in 2009. Household income growth is practically nonexistent, and household spending has come under pressure after the expiration of the payroll tax cut. Against this backdrop, U.S. investors bid prices higher on stocks and other riskier assets as central banks continued to pour liquidity into key markets.
Opportunities in Lower-Rated Credits
During the period, we found good opportunities in BBB-rated securities — which occupy the low rung on the investment-grade quality-ratings ladder — and in below-investment-grade, high-yielding corporate bonds. For most of the period, the Fund had more exposure to high-yield bonds than the Barclays U.S. Corporate Index, which aided results. Strong security selection within industrials more than offset the impact of a modest underweight in the sector. Much of the superior return from industrials came from the Fund's investments in BBB-rated and high-yield debt. Security selection in BBB-rated utilities also had a positive impact on performance.
Strong Security Selection within Financials
In financials, the Fund's significant underweight hampered results, as investors bid prices up as fears about the health of the economy and global financial system dissipated. However, we found that the opacity of many financial institutions made it difficult to analyze how risk exposure might change from month to month, and we were unwilling to rely on existing levels of financial disclosure and management assurances alone. Uncertainties about the potential impact of new regulations and a cloudy outlook for the global economy raised additional skepticism about the sector. At the close of the fiscal period, the Fund remained underweight in financials, as we believed there was even less reason to emphasize the group than there was a year ago, when prices — as reflected by yield spreads — were more attractive. Nevertheless, the Fund regained some

ground within financials through superior security selection. We emphasized domestic, large multi-national corporations that were vital to the overall economy, and they were strong performers. A position in BBB-rated bonds in the insurance industry also aided relative results.
Emphasis Remains on Security Selection
While volatility in the fixed-income market has diminished as investors appear increasingly confident that the world's central banks can stimulate greater growth, we are more cautious in our outlook. At present, we have reduced the Fund's exposure to lower rated investment-grade securities and have aligned the Fund's position in this segment more closely with the Barclays U.S. Corporate Index. We also have currently placed a greater emphasis on positions in more liquid investment-grade corporates and have further reduced the Fund's positions in banks. Looking ahead, we believe individual credit analysis may become even more important in an environment of lower volatility. We believe this has the potential to play to the strengths of our investment team, which concentrates on credit research and bottom-up security selection.

Percentages indicated are based upon total fixed income securities (excluding Money Market Funds).
Bond ratings apply to the underlying holdings of the Fund and not the Fund itself and are divided into categories ranging from AAA (highest) to D (lowest), and are subject to change. The ratings shown are determined by using the middle rating of Moody's, S&P, and Fitch after dropping the highest and lowest available ratings. When a rating from only two agencies is available, the lower rating is used. When a rating from only one agency is available, that rating is used. When a bond is not rated by any of these agencies, it is designated as Not rated. Credit ratings are subjective opinions and not statements of fact.

Understanding Your Fund's Expenses
(Unaudited)
As an investor, you incur two types of costs. There are transaction costs, which generally include sales charges on purchases and may include redemption fees. There are also ongoing costs, which generally include management fees, distribution and service (Rule 12b-1) fees, and other fund expenses. The following information is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to help you compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
Analyzing Your Fund's Expenses
To illustrate these ongoing costs, we have provided examples and calculated the expenses paid by investors in each share class of the Fund during the period. The actual and hypothetical information in the table is based on an initial investment of $1,000 at the beginning of the period indicated and held for the entire period. Expense information is calculated two ways and each method provides you with different information. The amount listed in the "Actual" column is calculated using the Fund's actual operating expenses and total return for the period. You may use the Actual information, together with the amount 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 results by the expenses paid during the period under the Actual column. The amount listed in the "Hypothetical" column assumes a 5% annual rate of return before expenses (which is not the Fund's actual return) and then applies the Fund's actual expense ratio for the period to the hypothetical return. You should not use the hypothetical account values and expenses to estimate either your actual account balance at the end of the period or the expenses you paid during the period. See "Compare With Other Funds" below for details on how to use the hypothetical data.
Compare With Other Funds
Since all mutual funds are required to include the same hypothetical calculations about expenses in shareholder reports, you can use this information to compare the ongoing cost of investing in the Fund with other funds. To do so, compare the hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of other funds. As you compare hypothetical examples of other funds, it is important to note that hypothetical examples are meant to highlight the ongoing costs of investing in a fund only and do not reflect any transaction costs, such as sales charges, or redemption or exchange fees. Therefore, the hypothetical calculations are useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. If transaction costs were included in these calculations, your costs would be higher.

Fair Value Measurements
Generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) require disclosure regarding the inputs and valuation techniques used to measure fair value and any changes in valuation inputs or techniques. In addition, investments shall be disclosed by major category.
The Fund categorizes its fair value measurements according to a three-level hierarchy that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by prioritizing that the most observable input be used when available. Observable inputs are those that market participants would use in pricing an investment based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity. Unobservable inputs are those that reflect the Fund's assumptions about the information market participants would use in pricing an investment. An investment's level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is deemed significant to the asset or liability's fair value measurement. The input levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with investments at that level. For example, certain U.S. government securities are generally high quality and liquid, however, they are reflected as Level 2 because the inputs used to determine fair value may not always be quoted prices in an active market.
Fair value inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:
> Level 1 — Valuations based on quoted prices for investments in active markets that the Fund has the ability to access at the measurement date (including NAV for open-end mutual funds). Valuation adjustments are not applied to Level 1 investments.
> Level 2 — Valuations based on other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risks, etc.).
> Level 3 — Valuations based on significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund's own assumptions and judgment in determining the fair value of investments).
Inputs that are used in determining fair value of an investment may include price information, credit data, volatility statistics, and other factors. These inputs can be either observable or unobservable. The availability of observable inputs can vary between investments, and is affected by various factors such as the type of investment, and the volume and level of activity for that investment or similar investments in the marketplace. The inputs will be considered by the Investment Manager, along with any other relevant factors in the calculation of an investment's fair value. The Fund uses prices and inputs that are current as of the measurement date, which may include periods of market dislocations. During these periods, the availability of prices and inputs may be reduced for many investments. This condition could cause an investment to be reclassified between the various levels within the hierarchy.
Investments falling into the Level 3 category are primarily supported by quoted prices from brokers and dealers participating in the market for those investments. However, these may be classified as Level 3 investments due to lack of market transparency and corroboration to support these quoted prices. Additionally, valuation models may be used as the pricing source for any remaining investments classified as Level 3. These models may rely on one or more significant unobservable inputs and/or significant assumptions by the Investment Manager. Inputs used in valuations may include, but are not limited to, financial statement analysis, capital account balances, discount rates and estimated cash flows, and comparable company data.
Under the direction of the Fund's Board of Trustees (the Board), the Investment Manager's Valuation Committee (the Committee) is responsible for carrying out the valuation procedures approved by the Board. The Committee consists of voting and non-voting members from various groups within the Investment Manager's organization, including operations and accounting, trading and investments, compliance, risk management and legal.
The Committee meets at least monthly to review and approve valuation matters, which may include a description of specific valuation determinations, data regarding pricing information received from approved pricing vendors and brokers and the results of Board-approved valuation control policies and procedures (the Policies). The Policies address, among other things, instances when market quotations are readily available, including recommendations of third party pricing vendors and a determination of appropriate pricing methodologies; events that require specific valuation determinations and assessment of fair value techniques; securities with a potential for stale pricing, including those that are illiquid, restricted, or in default; and the effectiveness of third-party pricing vendors, including periodic reviews of vendors. The Committee meets more frequently, as needed, to discuss additional valuation matters, which may include the need to review back-testing results, review time-sensitive information or approve related valuation actions. The Committee reports to the Board, with members of the Committee meeting with the Board at each of its regularly scheduled meetings to discuss valuation matters and actions during the period, similar to those described earlier.
For investments categorized as Level 3, the Committee monitors information similar to that described above, which may include: (i) data specific to the issuer or comparable issuers, (ii) general market or specific sector news and (iii) quoted prices and specific or similar security transactions. The Committee considers this data and any changes from prior periods in order to assess the reasonableness of observable and unobservable inputs, any assumptions or internal models used to value those securities and changes in fair value. This data is also used to corroborate, when available, information received from approved pricing vendors and brokers. Various factors impact the frequency of monitoring this information (which may occur as often as daily). However, the Committee may determine that changes to inputs, assumptions and models are not required as a result of the monitoring procedures performed.

(a) Change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) relating to securities held at April 30, 2013 was $0.
The Fund does not hold any significant investments with unobservable inputs which are categorized as Level 3.
The Fund's assets assigned to the Level 3 category are valued utilizing the valuation technique deemed the most appropriate in the circumstances. Certain Corporate Bonds & Notes classified as Level 3 are valued using an income approach. To determine fair value for these securities, management considered estimates of future distributions from the liquidation of company assets or potential actions related to the respective company's bankruptcy filing. Significant increases (decreases) to any of these inputs would result in a significantly lower (higher) fair value measurement. Generally, a change in the bankruptcy filings would result in a directionally similar change to estimates of future distributions.
Transfers in and/or out of Level 3 are determined based on the fair value at the beginning of the period for security positions held throughout the period.

Columbia Corporate Income Fund
Notes to Financial Statements
April 30, 2013
Note 1. Organization
Columbia Corporate Income Fund (the Fund), a series of Columbia Funds Series Trust I (the Trust), is a diversified fund. The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust.
Fund Shares
The Trust may issue an unlimited number of shares (without par value). The Fund offers Class A, Class B, Class C, Class I, Class R4, Class R5, Class W, Class Y and Class Z shares. All share classes have identical voting, dividend and liquidation rights. Each share class has its own expense structure and sales charges, as applicable.
Class A shares are subject to a maximum front-end sales charge of 4.75% based on the initial investment amount. Class A shares purchased without an initial sales charge in accounts aggregating $1 million to $50 million at the time of purchase are subject to a contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC) if the shares are sold within 18 months of purchase, charged as follows: 1.00% CDSC if redeemed within 12 months of purchase, and 0.50% CDSC if redeemed more than 12, but less than 18, months after purchase.
Class B shares may be subject to a maximum CDSC of 5.00% based upon the holding period after purchase. Class B shares will generally convert to Class A shares eight years after purchase. The Fund no longer accepts investments by new or existing investors in the Fund's Class B shares, except in connection with the reinvestment of any dividend and/or capital gain distributions in Class B shares of the Fund and exchanges by existing Class B shareholders of certain other funds within the Columbia Family of Funds.
Class C shares are subject to a 1.00% CDSC on shares redeemed within one year of purchase.
Class I shares are not subject to sales charges and are available only to the Columbia Family of Funds.
Class R4 shares are not subject to sales charges and are generally available only to omnibus retirement plans and certain other eligible investors. Class R4 shares commenced operations on November 8, 2012.
Class R5 shares are not subject to sales charges and are generally available only to investors purchasing through authorized investment professionals and omnibus retirement plans. Class R5 shares commenced operations on November 8, 2012.
Class W shares are not subject to sales charges and are available only to investors purchasing through authorized
investment programs managed by investment professionals, including discretionary managed account programs.
Class Y shares are not subject to sales charges and are generally available only to certain retirement plans. Class Y shares commenced operations on November 8, 2012.
Class Z shares are not subject to sales charges, and are available only to certain investors.
Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements.
Security Valuation
Debt securities generally are valued by pricing services approved by the Board of Trustees (the Board) based upon market transactions for normal, institutional-size trading units of similar securities. The services may use various pricing techniques which take into account appropriate factors such as yield, quality, coupon rate, maturity, type of issue, trading characteristics and other data, as well as broker quotes. Debt securities for which quotations are readily available may also be valued based upon an over-the-counter or exchange bid quotation.
All equity securities are valued at the close of business of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE). Equity securities are valued at the last quoted sales price on the principal exchange or market on which they trade, except for securities traded on the NASDAQ Stock Market, which are valued at the NASDAQ official close price. Unlisted securities or listed securities for which there were no sales during the day are valued at the mean of the latest quoted bid and ask prices on such exchanges or markets.
Foreign equity securities are valued based on quotations from the principal market in which such securities are normally traded. If any foreign share prices are not readily available as a result of limited share activity the securities are valued at the mean of the latest quoted bid and ask prices on such

exchanges or markets. Foreign currency exchange rates are generally determined at 4:00 p.m. Eastern (U.S.) time. However, many securities markets and exchanges outside the U.S. close prior to the close of the NYSE; therefore, the closing prices for securities in such markets or on such exchanges may not fully reflect events that occur after such close but before the close of the NYSE. In those situations, foreign securities will be fair valued pursuant to the policy adopted by the Board, including utilizing a third party pricing service to determine these fair values. The third party pricing service takes into account multiple factors, including, but not limited to, movements in the U.S. securities markets, certain depositary receipts, futures contracts and foreign exchange rates that have occurred subsequent to the close of the foreign exchange or market, to determine a good faith estimate that reasonably reflects the current market conditions as of the close of the NYSE. The fair value of a security is likely to be different from the quoted or published price, if available.
Investments in other open-end investment companies, including money market funds, are valued at net asset value.
Futures and options on futures contracts are valued based upon the settlement price established each day by the board of trade or exchange on which they are traded.
Investments for which market quotations are not readily available, or that have quotations which management believes are not reliable, are valued at fair value as determined in good faith under consistently applied procedures established by and under the general supervision of the Board. If a security or class of securities (such as foreign securities) is valued at fair value, such value is likely to be different from the last quoted market price for the security.
The determination of fair value often requires significant judgment. To determine fair value, management may use assumptions including but not limited to future cash flows and estimated risk premiums. Multiple inputs from various sources may be used to determine fair value.
Foreign Currency Transactions and Translations
The values of all assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at that day's exchange rates. Net realized and unrealized gains (losses) on foreign currency transactions and translations include gains (losses) arising from the fluctuation in exchange rates between trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, gains (losses) arising from the disposition of foreign currency and currency gains (losses) between the accrual and payment dates on dividends, interest income and foreign withholding taxes.
For financial statement purposes, the Fund does not distinguish that portion of gains (losses) on investments which
is due to changes in foreign exchange rates from that which is due to changes in market prices of the investments. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gains (losses) on investments in the Statement of Operations.
Derivative Instruments
The Fund invests in certain derivative instruments, as detailed below, to meet its investment objectives. Derivatives are instruments whose values depend on, or are derived from, in whole or in part, the value of one or more other assets, such as securities, currencies, commodities or indices. Derivative instruments may be used to maintain cash reserves while maintaining exposure to certain other assets, to offset anticipated declines in values of investments, to facilitate trading, to reduce transaction costs and to pursue higher investment returns. The Fund may also use derivative instruments to mitigate certain investment risks, such as foreign currency exchange rate risk, interest rate risk and credit risk. Derivatives may involve various risks, including the potential inability of the counterparty to fulfill its obligation under the terms of the contract, the potential for an illiquid secondary market and the potential for market movements which may expose the Fund to gains or losses in excess of the amount shown in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
The Fund and any counterparty are required to maintain an agreement that requires the Fund and that counterparty to monitor (on a daily basis) the net fair value of all derivatives entered into pursuant to the agreement between the Fund and such counterparty. If the net fair value of such derivatives between the Fund and that counterparty exceeds a certain threshold (as defined in the agreement), the Fund or the counterparty (as the case may be) is required to post cash and/or securities as collateral. Fair values of derivatives presented in the financial statements are not netted with the fair value of other derivatives or with any collateral amounts posted by the Fund or any counterparty.
Futures Contracts
Futures contracts represent commitments for the future purchase or sale of an asset at a specified price on a specified date. The Fund bought and sold futures contracts to manage the duration and yield curve exposure of the Fund versus the benchmark and manage exposure to movements in interest rates. Upon entering into futures contracts, the Fund bears risks which may include interest rates, exchange rates or securities prices moving unexpectedly, in which case, the Fund may not achieve the anticipated benefits of the futures contracts and may realize a loss. Additional risks include counterparty credit risk, the possibility of an illiquid market, and that a change in the value of the contract or option may not correlate with changes in the value of the underlying asset.

Columbia Corporate Income Fund
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
April 30, 2013
Upon entering into a futures contract, the Fund pledges cash or securities with the broker in an amount sufficient to meet the initial margin requirement. Subsequent payments (variation margin) are made or received by the Fund each day. The variation margin payments are equal to the daily change in the contract value and are recorded as variation margin receivable or payable and are offset in unrealized gains or losses. The Fund recognizes a realized gain or loss when the contract is closed or expires. Futures contracts involve, to varying degrees, risk of loss in excess of the variation margin disclosed in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
Effects of Derivative Transactions in the Financial Statements
The following tables are intended to provide additional information about the effect of derivatives on the financial statements of the Fund, including: the fair value of derivatives by risk category and the location of those fair values in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities; the impact of derivative transactions on the Fund's operations over the period including realized gains or losses and unrealized gains or losses. The derivative schedules following the Portfolio of Investments present additional information regarding derivative instruments outstanding at the end of the period, if any.
The following table is a summary of the fair value of derivative instruments at April 30, 2013:
Liability Derivatives | |
Risk Exposure Category | | Statement of Assets and Liabilities Location | | Fair Value ($) | |
Interest rate contracts | | Net assets — unrealized depreciation on futures contracts | | | 5,810,534 | * | |
Total | | | | | | | 5,810,534 | | |
*Includes cumulative appreciation (depreciation) of futures contracts as reported in the Futures Contracts Outstanding table following the Portfolio of Investments. Only the current day's variation margin is reported in receivables or payables in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
The effect of derivative instruments in the Statement of Operations for the year ended April 30, 2013:
Amount of Realized Gain (Loss) on Derivatives Recognized in Income | |
Risk Exposure Category | | Futures Contracts ($) | |
Interest rate contracts | | | (3,620,213 | ) | |
Change in Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation) on Derivatives Recognized in Income | |
Risk Exposure Category | | Futures Contracts ($) | |
Interest rate contracts | | | (5,171,919 | ) | |
The following table is a summary of the volume of derivative instruments for the year ended April 30, 2013:
Derivative Instrument | | Contracts Opened | |
Futures contracts | | | 8,672 | | |
Delayed Delivery Securities
The Fund may trade securities on other than normal settlement terms, including securities purchased or sold on a "when-issued" basis. This may increase the risk if the other party to the transaction fails to deliver and causes the Fund to subsequently invest at less advantageous prices. The Fund designates cash or liquid securities in an amount equal to the delayed delivery commitment.
Loan Participations and Commitments
The Fund may invest in loan participations. When the Fund purchases a loan participation, the Fund typically enters into a contractual relationship with the lender or third party selling such participation (Selling Participant), but not the borrower. However, the Fund assumes the credit risk of the borrower, Selling Participant and any other persons interpositioned between the Fund and the borrower. The Fund may not directly benefit from the collateral supporting the senior loan which it has purchased from the Selling Participant.
Security Transactions
Security transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Cost is determined and gains (losses) are based upon the specific identification method for both financial statement and federal income tax purposes.
Income Recognition
Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis. Market premiums and discounts, including original issue discounts, are amortized and accreted, respectively, over the expected life of the security on all debt securities, unless otherwise noted.
Corporate actions and dividend income are recorded net of any non-reclaimable tax withholdings, on the ex-dividend date or upon receipt of ex-dividend notification in the case of certain foreign securities.
Expenses
General expenses of the Trust are allocated to the Fund and other funds of the Trust based upon relative net assets or other expense allocation methodologies determined by the nature of the expense. Expenses directly attributable to the Fund are charged to the Fund. Expenses directly attributable to a specific class of shares are charged to that share class.
Determination of Class Net Asset Value
All income, expenses (other than class-specific expenses, which are charged to that share class, as shown in the
Annual Report 2013
41
Columbia Corporate Income Fund
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
April 30, 2013
Statement of Operations) and realized and unrealized gains (losses) are allocated to each class of the Fund on a daily basis, based on the relative net assets of each class, for purposes of determining the net asset value of each class.
Federal Income Tax Status
The Fund intends to qualify each year as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended, and will distribute substantially all of its taxable income (including net short-term capital gains), if any, for its tax year, and as such will not be subject to federal income taxes. In addition, the Fund intends to distribute in each calendar year substantially all of its net investment income, capital gains and certain other amounts, if any, such that the Fund should not be subject to federal excise tax. Therefore, no federal income or excise tax provision is recorded.
Foreign Taxes
The Fund may be subject to foreign taxes on income, gains on investments or currency repatriation, a portion of which may be recoverable. The Fund will accrue such taxes and recoveries, as applicable, based upon its current interpretation of tax rules and regulations that exist in the markets in which it invests.
Realized gains in certain countries may be subject to foreign taxes at the Fund level, based on statutory rates. The Fund accrues for such foreign taxes on net realized and unrealized gains at the appropriate rate for each jurisdiction, as applicable. The amount, if any, is disclosed as a liability on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
Distributions to Shareholders
Distributions from net investment income, if any, are declared daily and paid monthly. Net realized capital gains, if any, are distributed at least annually. Income distributions and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP.
Guarantees and Indemnifications
Under the Trust's organizational documents and, in some cases, by contract, its officers and trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Trust or its funds. In addition, certain of the Fund's contracts with its service providers contain general indemnification clauses. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown since the amount of any future claims that may be made against the Fund cannot be determined, and the Fund has no historical basis for predicting the likelihood of any such claims.
Recent Accounting Pronouncement
Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities
In December 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2011-11, Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities and in January 2013, ASU No. 2013-1, Clarifying the Scope of Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities (collectively, the ASUs). Specifically, the ASUs require an entity to disclose both gross and net information for derivatives and other financial instruments that are subject to a master netting arrangement or similar agreement. The ASUs require disclosure of collateral received in connection with the master netting agreements or similar agreements. The disclosure requirements are effective for interim and annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. At this time, management is evaluating the implications of this guidance and the impact it will have on the financial statement amounts and footnote disclosures, if any.
Note 3. Fees and Compensation Paid to Affiliates
Investment Management Fees
Under an Investment Management Services Agreement, Columbia Management Investment Advisers, LLC (the Investment Manager), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Ameriprise Financial, Inc. (Ameriprise Financial), determines which securities will be purchased, held or sold. The investment management fee is an annual fee that is equal to a percentage of the Fund's average daily net assets that declines from 0.43% to 0.30% as the Fund's net assets increase. The effective investment management fee rate for the year ended April 30, 2013 was 0.43% of the Fund's average daily net assets.
Administration Fees
Under an Administrative Services Agreement, the Investment Manager also serves as the Fund Administrator. The Fund pays the Fund Administrator an annual fee for administration and accounting services equal to a percentage of the Fund's average daily net assets that declines from 0.07% to 0.04% as the Fund's net assets increase. The effective administration fee rate for the year ended April 30, 2013 was 0.07% of the Fund's average daily net assets.
Compensation of Board Members
Board members are compensated for their services to the Fund as disclosed in the Statement of Operations. The Trust's eligible Trustees may participate in a Deferred Compensation Plan (the Plan) which may be terminated at any time. Obligations of the Plan will be paid solely out of the Fund's assets.
Annual Report 2013

Columbia Corporate Income Fund
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
April 30, 2013
Compensation of Chief Compliance Officer
The Board has appointed a Chief Compliance Officer to the Fund in accordance with federal securities regulations. The Fund pays its pro-rata share of the expenses associated with the Chief Compliance Officer. The Fund's expenses for the Chief Compliance Officer will not exceed $15,000 per year.
Transfer Agent Fees
Under a Transfer and Dividend Disbursing Agent Agreement, Columbia Management Investment Services Corp. (the Transfer Agent), an affiliate of the Investment Manager and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Ameriprise Financial, is responsible for providing transfer agency services to the Fund. The Transfer Agent has contracted with Boston Financial Data Services (BFDS) to serve as sub-transfer agent.
The Transfer Agent receives monthly account-based service fees based on the number of open accounts and also receives sub-transfer agency fees based on a percentage of the average aggregate value of the Fund's shares maintained in omnibus accounts (other than omnibus accounts for which American Enterprise Investment Services Inc. is the broker of record or accounts where the beneficial shareholder is a customer of Ameriprise Financial Services, Inc., which are paid a per account fee). The Transfer Agent pays the fees of BFDS for services as sub-transfer agent and is not entitled to reimbursement for such fees from the Fund (with the exception of out-of-pocket fees).
The Transfer Agent also receives compensation from fees for various shareholder services and reimbursements for certain out-of-pocket fees. Class I shares do not pay transfer agent fees. Total transfer agent fees for Class R5 shares are subject to an annual limitation of not more than 0.05% of the average daily net assets attributable to Class R5 shares. Beginning November 8, 2012, Class Y shares are not subject to transfer agent fees for at least twelve months.
For the year ended April 30, 2013, the Fund's effective transfer agent fee rates as a percentage of average daily net assets of each class were as follows:
Class A | | | 0.19 | % | |
Class B | | | 0.19 | | |
Class C | | | 0.19 | | |
Class R4* | | | 0.19 | | |
Class R5* | | | 0.05 | | |
Class W | | | 0.19 | | |
Class Z | | | 0.19 | | |
*Annualized.
An annual minimum account balance fee of $20 may apply to certain accounts with a value below the Fund's initial
minimum investment requirements to reduce the impact of small accounts on transfer agent fees. These minimum account balance fees are recorded as part of expense reductions in the Statement of Operations. For the year ended April 30, 2013, these minimum account balance fees reduced total expenses by $2,269.
Distribution and Service Fees
The Fund has an agreement with Columbia Management Investment Distributors, Inc. (the Distributor), an affiliate of the Investment Manager and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Ameriprise Financial, for distribution and shareholder services. Pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act, the Board has approved, and the Fund has adopted, distribution and shareholder service plans (the Plans) which set the distribution and service fees for the Fund. These fees are calculated daily and are intended to compensate the Distributor and/or eligible selling and/or servicing agents for selling shares of the Fund and providing services to investors.
The Plans require the payment of a monthly service fee to the Distributor at the maximum annual rate of 0.25% of the average daily net assets attributable to Class A, Class B, Class C and Class W shares of the Fund. The Plans also require the payment of a monthly distribution fee to the Distributor at the maximum annual rates of 0.75%, 0.75% and 0.25% of the average daily net assets attributable to Class B, Class C and Class W shares, respectively.
The Distributor has voluntarily agreed to waive a portion of the distribution fee for Class C shares so that it does not exceed 0.60% annually of the average daily net assets attributable to Class C shares. This arrangement may be modified or terminated by the Distributor at any time.
The Fund may pay a distribution fee up to 0.25% of the Fund's average daily net assets attributable to Class W shares and a service fee of up to 0.25% of the Fund's average daily net assets attributable to Class W shares, provided, however, that the aggregate fee shall not exceed 0.25% of the Fund's average daily net assets attributable to Class W shares.
Sales Charges
Sales charges, including front-end charges and CDSCs, received by the Distributor for distributing Fund shares were $299,350 for Class A, $1,479 for Class B and $12,367 for Class C shares for the year ended April 30, 2013.
Expenses Waived/Reimbursed by the Investment Manager and its Affiliates
The Investment Manager and certain of its affiliates have contractually agreed to waive fees and/or reimburse expenses (excluding certain fees and expenses described below) for the periods disclosed below, unless sooner terminated at the sole

discretion of the Board, so that the Fund's net operating expenses, after giving effect to fees waived/expenses reimbursed and any balance credits and/or overdraft charges from the Fund's custodian, do not exceed the following annual rates as a percentage of the class' average daily net assets:
| | August 1, 2012 through August 31, 2013 | | Prior to August 1, 2012 | |

Class Y | | | 0.58 | * | | | — | | |
Class Z | | | 0.71 | | | | 0.67 | | |
*Annual rate is contractual from November 8, 2012 (the commencement of operations of each share class) through November 8, 2013.
Under the agreement governing these fee waivers and/or expense reimbursement arrangements, the following fees and expenses are excluded from the waiver/reimbursement commitment, and therefore will be paid by the Fund, if applicable: taxes (including foreign transaction taxes), expenses associated with investments in affiliated and non-affiliated pooled investment vehicles (including mutual funds and exchange traded funds), transaction costs and brokerage commissions, costs related to any securities lending program, dividend expenses associated with securities sold short, inverse floater program fees and expenses, transaction charges and interest on borrowed money, interest, extraordinary expenses and any other expenses the exclusion of which is specifically approved by the Board. This agreement may be modified or amended only with approval from all parties. Class C distribution fees waived by the Distributor, as discussed above, are in addition to the waiver/reimbursement commitment under the agreement.
Note 4. Federal Tax Information
The timing and character of income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP because of temporary or permanent book to tax differences.
At April 30, 2013, these differences are primarily due to differing treatment for capital loss carryforwards, principal and/or interest of fixed income securities, deferral/reversal of wash sales losses, Trustees' deferred compensation and derivative investments. To the extent these differences are
permanent, reclassifications are made among the components of the Fund's net assets in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Temporary differences do not require reclassifications. In the Statement of Assets and Liabilities the following reclassifications were made:
Excess of distributions over net investment income | | $ | 315,763 | | |
Accumulated net realized gain | | | (315,763 | ) | |
Net investment income and net realized gains (losses), as disclosed in the Statement of Operations, and net assets were not affected by this reclassification.
The tax character of distributions paid during the periods indicated was as follows:
| | Year Ended April 30, 2013 | | Period Ended April 30, 2012 | | Year Ended March 31, 2012 | |
Ordinary income | | $ | 69,520,539 | | | $ | 4,040,654 | | | $ | 37,538,035 | | |
Long-term capital gains | | | 9,734,696 | | | | — | | | | — | | |
Total | | $ | 79,255,235 | | | $ | 4,040,654 | | | $ | 37,538,035 | | |
Short-term capital gain distributions, if any, are considered ordinary income distributions for tax purposes.
At April 30, 2013, the components of distributable earnings on a tax basis were as follows:
Undistributed ordinary income | | $ | 15,271,485 | | |
Undistributed accumulated long-term gain | | | 24,642,907 | | |
Unrealized appreciation | | | 51,081,431 | | |
At April 30, 2013, the cost of investments for federal income tax purposes was $1,399,478,980 and the aggregate gross unrealized appreciation and depreciation based on that cost was:
Unrealized appreciation | | $ | 59,024,005 | | |
Unrealized depreciation | | | (7,942,574 | ) | |
Net unrealized appreciation | | $ | 51,081,431 | | |
For the year ended April 30, 2013, $193,785 of capital loss carryforward was utilized.
Management of the Fund has concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions that would require recognition in the financial statements. However, management's conclusion may be subject to review and adjustment at a later date based on factors including, but not limited to, new tax laws, regulations, and administrative interpretations (including relevant court decisions). Generally, the Fund's federal tax returns for the prior three fiscal years remain subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service.

Note 5. Portfolio Information
The cost of purchases and proceeds from sales of securities, excluding short-term obligations, aggregated to $1,502,022,698 and $1,601,295,494, respectively, for the year ended April 30, 2013, of which $172,535,442 and $184,350,227, respectively, were U.S. government securities.
Note 6. Lending of Portfolio Securities
Effective December 19, 2012, the Fund no longer participates in securities lending activity. Prior to that date, the Fund participated, or was eligible to participate, in securities lending activity pursuant to a Master Securities Lending Agreement (the Agreement) with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (JPMorgan). The Agreement authorized JPMorgan as lending agent to lend securities to authorized borrowers in order to generate additional income on behalf of the Fund. Pursuant to the Agreement, the securities loaned were secured by cash or securities that either were issued or guaranteed as to principal and interest by the U.S. government, its agencies, authorities or instrumentalities with value equal to at least 100% of the market value of the loaned securities. Any additional collateral required to maintain those levels due to market fluctuations of the loaned securities was requested to be delivered the following business day. Cash collateral received was invested by the lending agent on behalf of the Fund into authorized investments pursuant to the Agreement.
Pursuant to the Agreement, the Fund received income for lending its securities either in the form of fees or by earning interest on invested cash collateral, net of negotiated rebates paid to borrowers and fees paid to the lending agent for services provided and any other securities lending expenses. Net income earned from securities lending for the year ended April 30, 2013 is disclosed in the Statement of Operations. The Fund continued to earn and accrue interest and dividends on the securities loaned.
Note 7. Affiliated Money Market Fund
The Fund invests its daily cash balances in Columbia Short-Term Cash Fund, an affiliated money market fund established for the exclusive use by the Fund and other affiliated funds. The income earned by the Fund from such investments is included as "Dividends — affiliated issuers" in the Statement of Operations. As an investing fund, the Fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of the expenses of Columbia Short-Term Cash Fund.
Note 8. Shareholder Concentration
At April 30, 2013, two unaffiliated shareholder accounts owned an aggregate of 36.3% of the outstanding shares of the Fund. The Fund has no knowledge about whether any portion of those shares was owned beneficially by such accounts.
Affiliated shareholder accounts owned 45.4% of the outstanding shares of the Fund. Subscription and redemption activity by concentrated accounts may have a significant effect on the operations of the Fund.
Note 9. Line of Credit
The Fund has entered into a revolving credit facility with a syndicate of banks led by JPMorgan whereby the Fund may borrow for the temporary funding of shareholder redemptions or for other temporary or emergency purposes. The credit facility agreement, as amended, which is a collective agreement between the Fund and certain other funds managed by the Investment Manager, severally and not jointly, permits collective borrowings up to $500 million. Interest is charged to each participating fund based on its borrowings at a rate equal to the higher of (i) the overnight federal funds rate plus 1.00% or (ii) the one-month LIBOR rate plus 1.00%. Each borrowing under the credit facility matures no later than 60 days after the date of borrowing. The Fund also pays a commitment fee equal to its pro rata share of the amount of the credit facility at a rate of 0.08% per annum.

Note 11. Information Regarding Pending and Settled Legal Proceedings
In December 2005, without admitting or denying the allegations, American Express Financial Corporation (AEFC, which is now known as Ameriprise Financial, Inc. (Ameriprise Financial)) entered into settlement agreements with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and Minnesota Department of Commerce (MDOC) related to market timing activities. As a result, AEFC was censured and ordered to cease and desist from committing or causing any violations of certain provisions of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, the Investment Company Act of 1940, and various Minnesota laws. AEFC agreed to pay disgorgement of $10 million and civil money penalties of $7 million. AEFC also agreed to retain an independent distribution consultant to assist in developing a plan for distribution of all disgorgement and civil penalties ordered by the SEC in accordance with various undertakings detailed at www.sec.gov/litigation/admin/ia-2451.pdf. Ameriprise Financial and its affiliates have cooperated with the SEC and the MDOC in these legal proceedings, and have made regular reports to the funds' Boards of Trustees.

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
April 30, 2013
Ameriprise Financial and certain of its affiliates have historically been involved in a number of legal, arbitration and regulatory proceedings, including routine litigation, class actions, and governmental actions, concerning matters arising in connection with the conduct of their business activities. Ameriprise Financial believes that the Funds are not currently the subject of, and that neither Ameriprise Financial nor any of its affiliates are the subject of, any pending legal, arbitration or regulatory proceedings that are likely to have a material adverse effect on the Funds or the ability of Ameriprise Financial or its affiliates to perform under their contracts with the Funds. Ameriprise Financial is required to make 10-Q, 10-K and, as necessary, 8-K filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission on legal and regulatory matters that relate to Ameriprise Financial and its affiliates. Copies of these filings may be obtained by accessing the SEC website at www.sec.gov.
There can be no assurance that these matters, or the adverse publicity associated with them, will not result in increased fund redemptions, reduced sale of fund shares or other adverse consequences to the Funds. Further, although we believe proceedings are not likely to have a material adverse effect on the Funds or the ability of Ameriprise Financial or its affiliates to perform under their contracts with the Funds, these proceedings are subject to uncertainties and, as such, we are unable to estimate the possible loss or range of loss that may result. An adverse outcome in one or more of these proceedings could result in adverse judgments, settlements, fines, penalties or other relief that could have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial condition or results of operations of Ameriprise Financial.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Trustees of Columbia Funds Series Trust I and the Shareholders of
Columbia Corporate Income Fund
In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the portfolio of investments, and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Columbia Corporate Income Fund (the "Fund") (a series of Columbia Funds Series Trust I) at April 30, 2013, the results of its operations, the changes in its net assets and the financial highlights for the periods indicated, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as "financial statements") are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at April 30, 2013 by correspondence with the custodian, transfer agent, agent banks and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

(e)(1) Audit Committee Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures
The registrant’s Audit Committee is required to pre-approve the engagement of the registrant’s independent accountants to provide audit and non-audit services to the registrant and non-audit services to its investment adviser (not including any sub-adviser whose role is primarily portfolio management and is subcontracted with or overseen by another investment adviser) or any entity controlling, controlled by or under common control with such investment adviser that provides ongoing services to the registrant (“Adviser Affiliates”), if the engagement relates directly to the operations and financial reporting of the registrant.
The Audit Committee has adopted a Policy for Engagement of Independent Accountants for Audit and Non-Audit Services (“Policy”). The Policy sets forth the understanding of the Audit Committee regarding the engagement of the registrant’s independent accountants to provide (i) audit and permissible audit-related, tax and other services to the registrant (collectively “Fund Services”); (ii) non-audit services to the registrant’s investment adviser (not including any sub-adviser whose role is primarily portfolio management and is subcontracted with or overseen by another investment adviser) and Adviser Affiliates, if the engagement relates directly to the operations or financial reporting of a Fund (collectively “Fund-related Adviser Services”); and (iii) certain other audit and non-audit services to the registrant’s investment adviser (not including any sub-adviser whose role is primarily portfolio management and is subcontracted with or overseen by another investment adviser) and Adviser Affiliates. As set forth in this Fund Policy, a service will require specific pre-approval by the Audit Committee if it is to be provided by the Fund’s independent auditor; provided, however, that pre-approval of non-audit services to the Fund, the Adviser or Control Affiliates may be waived if certain de minimis requirements set forth in the SEC’s rules are met.
Under the Policy, the Audit Committee may delegate pre-approval authority to any pre-designated member or members who are Independent Trustees/Directors. The member(s) to whom such authority is delegated must report, for informational purposes only, any pre-approval decisions to the Audit Committee at its next regular meeting. The Audit Committee’s responsibilities with respect to the pre-approval of services performed by the independent accountants may not be delegated to management.
On an annual basis, at a regularly scheduled Audit Committee meeting, the Fund’s Treasurer or other Fund Officer shall submit to the Audit Committee a schedule of the types of Fund Services and Fund-related Adviser Services that are subject to specific pre-approval.
This schedule will provide a description of each type of service that is subject to specific pre-approval, along with total projected fees for each service. The pre-approval will generally cover a one-year period. The Audit Committee will review and approve the types of services and the projected fees for the next one-year period and may add to, or subtract from, the list of pre-approved services from time to time, based on subsequent determinations. This specific approval acknowledges that the Audit Committee is in agreement with the types of services that the independent accountants will be permitted to perform.
The Fund’s Treasurer or other Fund Officer shall report to the Audit Committee at each of its regular meetings regarding all Fund Services or Fund-related Adviser Services initiated since the last such report was rendered, including a general description of the services with forecasted fees for the annual period, proposed changes requiring specific pre-approval and a description of services provided by the independent auditor with actual fees during the current reporting period.

April 30, 2013 | | One month period ended April 30, 2012 (for four series) | | Ten month period ended April 30, 2012 (for one series) | | March 31, 2012 (for four series) | | June 30, 2011 (for one series) | |

(h) The registrant’s Audit Committee of the Board of Directors has considered whether the provision of non-audit services that were rendered to the registrant’s adviser (not including any sub-adviser whose role is primarily portfolio management and is subcontracted with or overseen by another investment adviser), and any entity
controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the investment adviser that provides ongoing services to the registrant that were not pre-approved pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(ii) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X, is compatible with maintaining the principal accountant’s independence.
