Fund Objective

Letter from the Chairman

R. Jay Gerken, CFA
Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer
Dear Shareholder,
There was no shortage of potential threats to the U.S. economy during the reporting period. These included record high oil prices, rising short-term interest rates, the devastation inflicted by Hurricanes Katrina and Rita, geopolitical issues and falling consumer confidence. However, the economy proved to be surprisingly resilient. First quarter 2005 gross domestic product (“GDP”)i growth was 3.8% and second quarter GDP growth was 3.3%, another solid advance. This marked nine consecutive quarters in which GDP grew 3.0% or more.
The Federal Reserve Board (“Fed”)ii continued to raise interest rates in an attempt to ward off inflation. After raising rates seven times from June 2004 through March 2005, the Fed increased its target for the federal funds rateiii in 0.25% increments four additional times over the period. All told, the Fed’s eleven rate hikes have brought the target for the federal funds rate from 1.00% to 3.75%. This also represents the longest sustained Fed tightening cycle since 1977-1979. Following the end of the Fund’s reporting period, at its November meeting, the Fed once again raised the target rate by 0.25% to 4.00%.
During much of the reporting period, the fixed income market confounded investors as short-term interest rates rose in concert with the Fed rate tightening, while longer-term rates, surprisingly, declined. When the period began, the federal funds target rate was 2.75% and the yield on the 10-year Treasury was 4.13%. When the reporting period ended, the federal funds rate rose to 3.75%. Due to a spike in September, the 10-year yield was 4.29% at that time, slightly higher than when the period began, but still lower than its yield of 4.62% when the Fed began its tightening cycle on June 30, 2004. This trend also occurred in the municipal bond market.

Special Shareholder Notice
On June 24, 2005, Citigroup Inc. (“Citigroup”) announced that it has signed a definitive agreement under which Citigroup will sell substantially all of its worldwide asset management business to Legg Mason, Inc. (“Legg Mason”).
As part of this transaction, Smith Barney Fund Management LLC (the “Manager”), currently an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Citigroup, would become an indirect

wholly owned subsidiary of Legg Mason. The Manager is the investment manager to the Fund.
The transaction is subject to certain regulatory approvals, as well as other customary conditions to closing. Subject to such approvals and the satisfaction of the other conditions, Citigroup expects the transaction to be completed later this year.
Under the Investment Company Act of 1940, consummation of the transaction will result in the automatic termination of the investment management contract between the Fund and the Manager. Therefore the Trust’s Board of Trustees has approved a new investment management contract between the Fund and the Manager to become effective upon the closing of the sale to Legg Mason. The new investment management contract has been presented to shareholders for their approval.
Information About Your Fund
As you may be aware, several issues in the mutual fund industry have recently come under the scrutiny of federal and state regulators. The Fund’s Manager and some of its affiliates have received requests for information from various government regulators regarding market timing, late trading, fees, and other mutual fund issues in connection with various investigations. The regulators appear to be examining, among other things, the Fund’s response to market timing and shareholder exchange activity, including compliance with prospectus disclosure related to these subjects. The Fund has been informed that the Manager and its affiliates are responding to those information requests, but are not in a position to predict the outcome of these requests and investigations.
Important information concerning the Fund and its Manager with regard to recent regulatory developments is contained in the Notes to Financial Statements included in this report.

The information provided is not intended to be a forecast of future events, a guarantee of future results or investment advice. Views expressed may differ from those of the firm as a whole.
RISKS: The Fund’s investments are subject to interest rate and credit risks. As interest rates rise, bond prices fall, reducing the value of the Fund’s share price. The Fund may use derivatives, such as options and futures, which can be illiquid, may disproportionately increase losses, and have a potentially large impact on Fund performance. Please see the Fund’s prospectus for more information on these and other risks.
All index performance reflects no deduction for fees, expenses or taxes. Please note an investor cannot invest directly in an index.

Fund at a Glance (unaudited)

Smith Barney Muni Funds 2005 Semi-Annual Report 5
Fund Expenses (unaudited)
Example
As a shareholder of the Fund, you may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including front-end and back-end sales charges (loads) on purchase payments; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees and other Fund expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
This example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested on April 1, 2005 and held for the six months ended September 30, 2005.
Actual Expenses
The table below titled “Based on Actual Total Return” provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information provided in this table, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. To estimate the expenses you paid on your account, divide your ending account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 ending account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During the Period”.
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Based on Actual Total Return(1) | | | | | | | | | |
| | | | | |
| | Actual Total Return Without Sales Charges(2) | | | Beginning Account Value | | Ending Account Value | | Annualized Expense Ratio | | | Expenses Paid During the Period(3) |
Class A | | 1.16 | % | | $ | 1,000.00 | | $ | 1,011.60 | | 0.70 | % | | $ | 3.53 |
|
Class B | | 0.90 | | | | 1,000.00 | | | 1,009.00 | | 1.23 | | | | 6.19 |
|
Class C | | 0.84 | | | | 1,000.00 | | | 1,008.40 | | 1.33 | | | | 6.70 |
|
Class O | | 1.19 | | | | 1,000.00 | | | 1,011.90 | | 0.93 | | | | 4.69 |
|
(1) | | For the six months ended September 30, 2005. |
(2) | | Assumes reinvestment of all distributions, including returns of capital, if any, at net asset value and does not reflect the deduction of the applicable sales charge with respect to Class A shares or the applicable contingent deferred sales charges (“CDSC”) with respect to Class B and O shares. Total return is not annualized, as it may not be representative of the total return for the year. Performance figures may reflect voluntary fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. In the absence of voluntary fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements, the total return would have been lower. |
(3) | | Expenses are equal to each class’ respective annualized expense ratio multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by the number of days in the most recent fiscal half-year, then divided by 365. |

Fund Expenses (unaudited) (continued)
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The table below titled “Based on Hypothetical Total Return” provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5.00% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use the information provided in this table to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare the 5.00% hypothetical example relating to the Fund with the 5.00% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table below are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as front-end or back-end sales charges (loads). Therefore, the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transaction costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

Smith Barney Muni Funds 2005 Semi-Annual Report 27
Bond Ratings (unaudited)
The definitions of the applicable rating symbols are set forth below:
Standard & Poor’s Ratings Service (“Standard & Poor’s”) — Ratings from “AA” to “CCC” may be modified by the addition of a plus (+) or minus (–) sign to show relative standings within the major rating categories.
AAA | — Bonds rated “AAA” have the highest rating assigned by Standard & Poor’s. Capacity to pay interest and repay principal is extremely strong. |
AA | — Bonds rated “AA” have a very strong capacity to pay interest and repay principal and differ from the highest rated issues only in a small degree. |
A | — Bonds rated “A” have a strong capacity to pay interest and repay principal although they are somewhat more susceptible to the adverse effects of changes in circumstances and economic conditions than debt in higher rated categories. |
BBB | — Bonds rated “BBB” are regarded as having an adequate capacity to pay interest and repay principal. Whereas they normally exhibit adequate protection parameters, adverse economic conditions or changing circumstances are more likely to lead to a weakened capacity to pay interest and repay principal for bonds in this category than in higher rated categories. |
BB, B,
CCC,
CC and C | — Bonds rated “BB”, “B”, “CCC”, “CC” and “C” are regarded, on balance, as predominantly speculative with respect to capacity to pay interest and repay principal in accordance with the terms of the obligation. “BB” represents the lowest degree of speculation and “C” the highest degree of speculation. While such bonds will likely have some quality and protective characteristics, these are outweighed by large uncertainties or major risk exposures to adverse conditions. |
D | — Bonds rated “D” are in default and payment of interest and/or repayment of principal is in arrears. |
Moody’s Investors Service (“Moody’s”) — Numerical modifiers 1, 2 and 3 may be applied to each generic rating from “Aa” to “Caa”, where 1 is the highest and 3 the lowest ranking within its generic category.
Aaa | — Bonds rated “Aaa” are judged to be of the best quality. They carry the smallest degree of investment risk and are generally referred to as “gilt edge.” Interest payments are protected by a large or by an exceptionally stable margin and principal is secure. While the various protective elements are likely to change, such changes as can be visualized are most unlikely to impair the fundamentally strong position of such issues. |
Aa | — Bonds rated “Aa” are judged to be of high quality by all standards. Together with the “Aaa” group they comprise what are generally known as high grade bonds. They are rated lower than the best bonds because margins of protection may not be as large as in “Aaa” securities or fluctuation of protective elements may be of greater amplitude or there may be other elements present which make the long-term risks appear somewhat larger than in “Aaa” securities. |
A | — Bonds rated “A” possess many favorable investment attributes and are to be considered as upper medium grade obligations. Factors giving security to principal and interest are considered adequate but elements may be present which suggest a susceptibility to impairment some time in the future. |
Baa | — Bonds rated “Baa” are considered as medium grade obligations, i.e., they are neither highly protected nor poorly secured. Interest payments and principal security appear adequate for the present but certain protective elements may be lacking or may be characteristically unreliable over any great length of time. Such bonds lack outstanding investment characteristics and in fact have speculative characteristics as well. |
Ba | — Bonds rated “Ba” are judged to have speculative elements; their future cannot be considered as well assured. Often the protection of interest and principal payments may be very moderate and therefore not well safeguarded during both good and bad times over the future. Uncertainty of position characterizes bonds in this class. |
B | — Bonds rated “B” are generally lack characteristics of desirable investments. Assurance of interest and principal payments or of maintenance of other terms of the contract over any long period of time may be small. |
Caa | — Bonds rated “Caa” are of poor standing. These may be in default, or present elements of danger may exist with respect to principal or interest. |
Ca | — Bonds rated “Ca” represent obligations which are speculative in a high degree. Such issues are often in default or have other marked short-comings. |
28 Smith Barney Muni Funds 2005 Semi-Annual Report
Bond Ratings (unaudited) (continued)
C | — Bonds rated “C” are the lowest class of bonds and issues so rated can be regarded as having extremely poor prospects of ever attaining any real investment standing. |
Fitch Rating Service (“Fitch”) — Ratings from “AAA” to “CC” may be modified by the addition of a plus (+) or minus (–) sign to show relative standings within the major rating categories.
AAA | — Bonds rated “AAA” have the highest rating assigned by Fitch. Capacity to pay interest and repay principal is extremely strong. |
AA | — Bonds rated “AA” have a very strong capacity to pay interest and repay principal and differ from the highest rated issues only in a small degree. |
A | — Bonds rated “A” have a strong capacity to pay interest and repay principal although they are somewhat more susceptible to the adverse effects of changes in circumstances and economic conditions than debt in higher rated categories. |
BBB | — Bonds rated “BBB” are regarded as having an adequate capacity to pay interest and repay principal. Whereas they normally exhibit adequate protection parameters, adverse economic conditions or changing circumstances are more likely to lead to a weakened capacity to pay interest and repay principal for bonds in this category than in higher rated categories. |
BB, B,
CCC
and CC | — Bonds rated “BB”, “B”, “CCC” and “CC” are regarded, on balance, as predominantly speculative with respect to capacity to pay interest and repay principal in accordance with the terms of the obligation. “BB” represents a lower degree of speculation than “B”, and “CC” the highest degree of speculation. While such bonds will likely have some quality and protective characteristics, these are outweighed by large uncertainties or major risk exposures to adverse conditions. |
NR | — Indicates that the bond is not rated by Standard & Poor’s, Moody’s, or Fitch. |
Short-Term Security Ratings (unaudited)
SP-1 | — Standard & Poor’s highest rating indicating very strong or strong capacity to pay principal and interest; those issues determined to possess overwhelming safety characteristics are denoted with a plus (+) sign. |
A-1 | — Standard & Poor’s highest commercial paper and variable-rate demand obligation (VRDO) rating indicating that the degree of safety regarding timely payment is either overwhelming or very strong; those issues determined to possess overwhelming safety characteristics are denoted with a plus (+) sign. |
VMIG 1 | — Moody’s highest rating for issues having a demand feature — VRDO. |
P-1 | — Moody’s highest rating for commercial paper and for VRDO prior to the advent of the VMIG 1 rating. |
F-1 | — Fitch’s highest rating indicating the strongest capacity for timely payment of financial commitments; those issues determined to possess overwhelming strong credit feature are denoted with a plus (+) sign. |

(3) | | Effective April 1, 2001, the Fund adopted a change in the accounting method that requires the Fund to amortize premiums and accrete all discounts. Without the adoption of this change, for the year ended March 31, 2002, the ratio of net investment income to average net assets would have been 5.24%. In addition, the impact of this change to net investment income and net realized and unrealized loss was less than $0.01 per share. Per share information, ratios and supplemental data for the periods prior to April 1, 2001 have not been restated to reflect this change in presentation. |
(4) | | Performance figures may reflect voluntary fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. In the absence of voluntary fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements, the total return would be lower. Total returns for periods of less than one year are not annualized. |
(6) | | As a result of a voluntary expense limitation, the ratio of expenses to average net assets will not exceed 0.85%. |
(7) | | The investment manager voluntarily waived a portion of its management fee and reimbursed the Fund for expenses. |

Notes to Financial Statements (unaudited)
1. | Organization and Significant Accounting Policies |
The Limited Term Portfolio (the “Fund”), is a separate diversified investment fund of Smith Barney Muni Funds (“Trust”), a Massachusetts business trust. The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (“1940 Act”), as amended, as an open-end management investment company.
The following are significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund and are in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Estimates and assumptions are required to be made regarding assets, liabilities and changes in net assets resulting from operations when financial statements are prepared. Changes in the economic environment, financial markets and any other parameters used in determining these estimates could cause actual results to differ.
(a) Investment Valuation. Securities are valued at the mean between the bid and asked prices provided by an independent pricing service that are based on transactions in municipal obligations, quotations from municipal bond dealers, market transactions in comparable securities and various relationships between securities. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available or are determined not to reflect fair value, will be valued in good faith by or under the direction of the Fund’s Board of Trustees. Short-term obligations with maturities of 60 days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates value.
(b) Financial Futures Contracts. The Fund may enter into financial futures contracts to hedge against the economic impact of adverse changes in the market value of portfolio securities due to changes in interest rates, as a substitute for buying or selling securities or as a cash flow management technique. Upon entering into a financial futures contract, the Fund is required to deposit cash or securities as initial margin. Additional securities are also segregated up to the current market value of the financial futures contracts. Subsequent payments, known as variation margin, are made or received by the Fund each day, depending on the daily fluctuation in the value of the underlying financial instruments. The Fund recognizes an unrealized gain or loss equal to the daily variation margin. When the financial futures contracts are closed, a realized gain or loss is recognized equal to the difference between the proceeds from (or cost of) the closing transactions and the Fund’s basis in the contracts.
The risks associated with entering into financial futures contracts include the possibility that a change in the value of the contract may not correlate with the changes in the value of the underlying instruments. In addition, investing in financial futures contracts involves the risk that the Fund could lose more than the original margin deposit and subsequent payments required for a futures transaction. Risks may also arise upon entering into these contracts from the potential inability of the counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts.
(c) Security Transactions and Investment Income. Security transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Interest income, adjusted for amortization of premium and accretion of discount, is recorded on the accrual basis. The cost of investments sold is determined by use of the specific identification method. To the extent any issuer defaults on an expected interest payment, the Fund’s policy is to generally halt any additional interest income accruals and consider the realizability of interest accrued up to the date of default.
Smith Barney Muni Funds 2005 Semi-Annual Report 37
Notes to Financial Statements (unaudited) (continued)
(d) Distributions to Shareholders. Distributions from net investment income, if any, are declared and paid on a monthly basis. The Fund intends to satisfy conditions that will enable interest from municipals securities, which is exempt from federal and certain state income taxes, to retain such tax-exempt status when distributed to the shareholders of the Fund. Distributions of net realized gains, if any, are taxable and are declared at least annually. Distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date and are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP.
(e) Class Accounting. Investment income, common expenses and realized/unrealized gain (loss) on investments are allocated to the various classes of the Fund on the basis of daily net assets of each class. Fees relating to a specific class are charged directly to that class.
(f) Federal and Other Taxes. It is the Fund’s policy to comply with the federal income and excise tax requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, applicable to regulated investment companies. Accordingly, the Fund intends to distribute substantially all of its taxable income and net realized gains on investments, if any, to shareholders each year. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required in the Fund’s financial statements.
(g) Reclassification. GAAP requires that certain components of net assets be adjusted to reflect permanent differences between financial and tax reporting. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or net asset values per share.
2. | Management Agreement and Other Transactions with Affiliates |
Smith Barney Fund Management LLC (“SBFM”), an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Citigroup Inc. (“Citigroup”), acts as investment manager to the Fund. The Fund pays SBFM a management fee calculated at an annual rate of 0.50% of the Fund’s average daily net assets. This fee is calculated daily and paid monthly.
During the six months ended September 30, 2005, the Fund’s Class A, B, C, O and Y shares had voluntary expense limitations in place of 0.85%, 1.35%, 1.45%, 1.05% and 0.70%, respectively. These expense limitations can be terminated at any time by SBFM. On June 28, 2005 Class Y shares were redeemed.
Citicorp Trust Bank, fsb. (“CTB”), another subsidiary of Citigroup, acts as the Fund’s transfer agent. PFPC Inc. (“PFPC”) acts as the Fund’s sub-transfer agent. CTB receives account fees and asset-based fees that vary according to the size and type of account. PFPC is responsible for shareholder recordkeeping and financial processing for all shareholder accounts and is paid by CTB. For the six months ended September 30, 2005, the Fund paid transfer agent fees of $59,526 to CTB.
Citigroup Global Markets Inc. (“CGM”), another indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Citigroup, acts as the Fund’s distributor.
There is a maximum sales charge of 2.00% for Class A shares. There is a contingent deferred sales charge (“CDSC”) of 5.00% on Class B shares, which applies if redemption occurs within one year from purchase payment and declines thereafter by 1.00% per year until no CDSC is incurred. There is a CDSC of 1.00% on Class A shares, which applies if redemption occurs within one year from purchase payment. This CDSC only applies to
38 Smith Barney Muni Funds 2005 Semi-Annual Report
Notes to Financial Statements (unaudited) (continued)
those purchases of Class A shares, which, when combined with current holdings of Class A shares, equal or exceed $500,000 in the aggregate. These purchases do not incur an initial sales charge. Class O shares also have a 1.00% CDSC, which applies if redemption occurs within one year from purchase payment.
For the six months ended September 30, 2005, CGM received sales charges of approximately $120,000 on sales of the Fund’s Class A shares. In addition, for the six months ended September 30, 2005, CDSCs paid to CGM were approximately:

| | | |
| | Class A | | Class B | | Class O | |
CDSCs | | $ | 8,000 | | $ | 5,000 | | $ | 0 | † |
|
|
† | | Amount represents less than $1,000. |
The Fund has adopted an unfunded, non-qualified deferred compensation Plan (the “Plan”) which allows non-interested trustees (“Trustee”) to defer the receipt of all or a portion of the trustees’ fees earned until a later date specified by the Trustee. The deferred fees earn a return based on notional investments selected by the Trustee. The balance of the deferred fees payable may change depending upon the investment performance. Any gains earned or losses incurred in the deferred balances are reported in the statement of operations under trustee’s fees. Under the Plan, deferred fees are considered a general obligation of the Fund and any payments made pursuant to the Plan will be made from the Fund’s general assets.
As of September 30, 2005, the Fund has accrued $11,233 as deferred compensation payable.
Certain officers and one Trustee of the Trust are employees of Citigroup or its affiliates and do not receive compensation from the Trust.
During the six months ended September 30, 2005, the aggregate cost of purchases and proceeds from sales of investments (excluding short-term investments) were as follows:
| | | |
Purchases | | $ | 68,630,547 |
|
Sales | | | 48,839,668 |
|

On May 31, 2005, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) issued an order in connection with the settlement of an administrative proceeding against SBFM and CGM relating to the appointment of an affiliated transfer agent for the Smith Barney family of mutual funds (the “Funds”).
The SEC order finds that SBFM and CGM willfully violated Section 206(1) of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 (“Advisers Act”). Specifically, the order finds that SBFM and CGM knowingly or recklessly failed to disclose to the boards of the Funds in 1999 when proposing a new transfer agent arrangement with an affiliated transfer agent that: First Data Investors Services Group (“First Data”), the Funds’ then-existing transfer agent, had offered to continue as transfer agent and do the same work for substantially less money than before; and that Citigroup Asset Management (“CAM”), the Citigroup business unit
42 Smith Barney Muni Funds 2005 Semi-Annual Report
Notes to Financial Statements (unaudited) (continued)
that includes the fund’s investment manager and other investment advisory companies, had entered into a side letter with First Data under which CAM agreed to recommend the appointment of First Data as sub-transfer agent to the affiliated transfer agent in exchange, among other things, for a guarantee by First Data of specified amounts of asset management and investment banking fees to CAM and CGM. The order also finds that SBFM and CGM willfully violated Section 206(2) of the Advisers Act by virtue of the omissions discussed above and other misrepresentations and omissions in the materials provided to the Funds’ boards, including the failure to make clear that the affiliated transfer agent would earn a high profit for performing limited functions while First Data continued to perform almost all of the transfer agent functions, and the suggestion that the proposed arrangement was in the Funds’ best interests and that no viable alternatives existed. SBFM and CGM do not admit or deny any wrongdoing or liability. The settlement does not establish wrongdoing or liability for purposes of any other proceeding.
The SEC censured SBFM and CGM and ordered them to cease and desist from violations of Sections 206(1) and 206(2) of the Advisers Act. The order requires Citigroup to pay $208.1 million, including $109 million in disgorgement of profits, $19.1 million in interest, and a civil money penalty of $80 million. Approximately $24.4 million has already been paid to the Funds, primarily through fee waivers. The remaining $183.7 million, including the penalty, has been paid to the U.S. Treasury and will be distributed pursuant to a plan prepared by Citigroup and submitted for approval by the SEC. The order also requires that transfer agency fees received from the Funds since December 1, 2004 less certain expenses be placed in escrow and provides that a portion of such fees may be subsequently distributed in accordance with the terms of the order.
The order requires SBFM to recommend a new transfer agent contract to the Fund boards within 180 days of the entry of the order; if a Citigroup affiliate submits a proposal to serve as transfer agent or sub-transfer agent, an independent monitor must be engaged at the expense of SBFM and CGM to oversee a competitive bidding process. Under the order, Citigroup also must comply with an amended version of a vendor policy that Citigroup instituted in August 2004. That policy, as amended, among other things, requires that when requested by a Fund board, CAM will retain at its own expense an independent consulting expert to advise and assist the board on the selection of certain service providers affiliated with Citigroup.
At this time, there is no certainty as to how the proceeds of the settlement will be distributed, to whom such distributions will be made, the methodology by which such distributions will be allocated, and when such distributions will be made. Although there can be no assurance, Citigroup does not believe that this matter will have a material adverse effect on the Funds.
Beginning in August 2005, five class action lawsuits alleging violations of federal securities laws and state law were filed against CGM and SBFM (collectively, the “Defendants”) based on the May 31, 2005 settlement order issued against the Defendants by the SEC described in Note 8. The complaints seek injunctive relief and compensatory and punitive

damages, removal of SBFM as the advisor for the Smith Barney family of funds, rescission of the Funds’ management and other contracts with SBFM, recovery of all fees paid to SBFM pursuant to such contracts, and an award of attorneys’ fees and litigation expenses.
On October 5, 2005, a motion to consolidate the five actions and any subsequently-filed, related action was filed. That motion contemplates that a consolidated amended complaint alleging substantially similar causes of action will be filed in the future.
As of the date of this report, CAM believes that resolution of the pending lawsuit will not have a material effect on the financial position or results of operations of the Funds or the ability of the Advisers and their affiliates to continue to render services to the Funds under their respective contracts.
* * *
Beginning in June 2004, class action lawsuits alleging violations of the federal securities laws were filed against Citigroup Global Markets Inc. (the “Distributor”) and a number of its affiliates, including SBFM and Salomon Brothers Asset Management Inc (the “Advisers”), substantially all of the mutual funds managed by the Advisers, including the Fund (the “Funds”), and directors or trustees of the Funds (collectively, the “Defendants”). The complaints alleged, among other things, that CGM created various undisclosed incentives for its brokers to sell Smith Barney and Salomon Brothers funds. In addition, according to the complaints, the Advisers caused the Funds to pay excessive brokerage commissions to CGM for steering clients towards proprietary funds. The complaints also alleged that the defendants breached their fiduciary duty to the Funds by improperly charging Rule l2b-1 fees and by drawing on fund assets to make undisclosed payments of soft dollars and excessive brokerage commissions. The complaints also alleged that the Funds failed to adequately disclose certain of the allegedly wrongful conduct. The complaints sought injunctive relief and compensatory and punitive damages, rescission of the Funds’ contracts with the Advisers, recovery of all fees paid to the Advisers pursuant to such contracts and an award of attorneys’ fees and litigation expenses.
On December 15, 2004, a consolidated amended complaint (the “Complaint”) was filed alleging substantially similar causes of action. While the lawsuit is in its earliest stages, to the extent that the Complaint purports to state causes of action against the Funds, CAM believes the Funds have significant defenses to such allegations, which the Funds intend to vigorously assert in responding to the Complaint.
Additional lawsuits arising out of theses circumstances and presenting similar allegations and requests for relief may be filed against the Defendants in the future.
As of the date of this report, CAM and the Funds believe that the resolution of the pending lawsuit will not have a material effect on the financial position or results of operations of the Funds or the ability of the Advisers and their affiliates to continue to render services to the Funds under their respective contracts.
The Defendants have moved to dismiss the Complaint. Those motions are pending before the court.

Notes to Financial Statements (unaudited) (continued)
On June 24, 2005, Citigroup announced that it has signed a definitive agreement under which Citigroup will sell substantially all of its worldwide asset management business to Legg Mason, Inc. (“Legg Mason”).
As part of this transaction, SBFM (the “Manager”), currently an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Citigroup, would become an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Legg Mason. The Manager is the investment manager to the Fund.
The transaction is subject to certain regulatory approvals, as well as other customary conditions to closing. Subject to such approvals and the satisfaction of the other conditions, Citigroup expects the transaction to be completed later this year.
Under the Investment Company Act of 1940, consummation of the transaction will result in the automatic termination of the investment management contract between the Fund and the Manager. Therefore, the Fund’s Board of Trustees has approved a new investment management contract between the Fund and the Manager to become effective upon the closing of the sale to Legg Mason. The new investment management contract has been presented to the shareholders of the Fund for their approval.
The Fund has received information from CAM concerning SBFM, an investment advisory company that is part of CAM. The information received from CAM is as follows:
On September 16, 2005, the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) informed SBFM that the staff is considering recommending that the Commission institute administrative proceedings against SBFM for alleged violations of Sections 19(a) and 34(b) of the Investment Company Act (and related Rule 19a-1). The notification is a result of an industry wide inspection undertaken by the Commission and is based upon alleged deficiencies in disclosures regarding dividends and distributions paid to shareholders of certain funds. In connection with the contemplated proceedings, the staff may seek a cease and desist order and/or monetary damages from SBFM.
Although there can be no assurance, SBFM believes that this matter is not likely to have a material adverse effect on the Fund or SBFM’s ability to perform investment advisory services relating to the Fund.
The Commission staff’s recent notification will not affect the sale by Citigroup of substantially all of CAM’s worldwide business to Legg Mason, Inc., which Citigroup continues to expect will occur in the fourth quarter of this year.
Smith Barney Muni Funds 2005 Semi-Annual Report 45
Board Approval of Management Agreement (unaudited)
Background
The members of the Board of Smith Barney Muni Funds — Limited Term Portfolio (the “Fund”), including the Fund’s independent, or non-interested, Board members (the “Independent Board Members”), received information from the Fund’s manager (the “Manager”) to assist them in their consideration of the Fund’s management agreement (the “Management Agreement”). The Board received and considered a variety of information about the Manager and the Fund’s distributor(s), as well as the advisory and distribution arrangements for the Fund and other funds overseen by the Board, certain portions of which are discussed below.
The presentation made to the Board encompassed the Fund and all the funds for which the Board has responsibility. Some funds overseen by the Board have an investment advisory agreement and an administration agreement and some funds have an investment management agreement that encompasses both functions. The discussion below covers both advisory and administrative functions being rendered by the Manager whether a fund has a single agreement in place or both an advisory and administration agreement. The terms “Management Agreement”, “Contractual Management Fee” and “Actual Management Fee” are used in a similar manner to refer to both advisory and administration agreements and their related fees whether a fund has a single agreement or separate agreements in place.
Board Approval of Management Agreement
In approving the Management Agreement the Fund’s Board, including the Independent Board Members, considered the following factors:
Nature, Extent and Quality of the Services under the Management Agreement
The Board received and considered information regarding the nature, extent and quality of services provided to the Fund by the Manager under the Management Agreement during the past year. The Board also received a description of the administrative and other services rendered to the Fund and its shareholders by the Manager. The Board noted information received at regular meetings throughout the year related to the services rendered by the Manager about the management of the Fund’s affairs and the Manager’s role in coordinating the activities of the Fund’s other service providers. The Board’s evaluation of the services provided by the Manager took into account the Board’s knowledge and familiarity gained as Board members of funds in the Citigroup Asset Management (“CAM”) fund complex, including the scope and quality of the Manager’s investment management and other capabilities and the quality of its administrative and other services. The Board observed that the scope of services provided by the Manager had expanded over time as a result of regulatory and other developments, including maintaining and monitoring its own and the Fund’s expanded compliance programs. The Board also considered the Manager’s response to recent regulatory compliance issues affecting it and the CAM fund complex. The Board reviewed information received from the Manager regarding the implementation to date of the Fund’s compliance policies and procedures established pursuant to Rule 38a-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940.
46 Smith Barney Muni Funds 2005 Semi-Annual Report
Board Approval of Management Agreement
(unaudited) (continued)
The Board reviewed the qualifications, backgrounds and responsibilities of the Fund’s senior personnel and the portfolio management team primarily responsible for the day-to-day portfolio management of the Fund. The Board also considered the degree to which the Manager implemented organizational changes to improve investment results and the services provided to the CAM fund complex. The Board noted that the Manager’s Office of the Chief Investment Officer, composed of the senior officers of the investment teams managing the funds in the CAM complex, participates in reporting to the Board on investment matters. The Board also considered, based on its knowledge of the Manager and its affiliates, the financial resources available to CAM and its parent organization, Citigroup Inc.
The Board also considered the Manager’s brokerage policies and practices, the standards applied in seeking best execution, the Manager’s policies and practices regarding soft dollars, the use of a broker affiliated with the Manager and the existence of quality controls applicable to brokerage allocation procedures. In addition, management also reported to the Board on, among other things, its business plans, recent organizational changes and portfolio manager compensation plan.
At the Board’s request following the conclusion of the 2004 contract continuance discussions, the Manager prepared and provided to the Board in connection with the 2005 discussions an analysis of complex-wide management fees, which, among other things, set out a proposed framework of fees based on asset classes. The Board engaged the services of independent consultants to assist it in evaluating the Fund’s fees generally and within the context of the framework.
The Board concluded that, overall, the nature, extent and quality of services provided (and expected to be provided) under the Management Agreement was acceptable.
Fund Performance
The Board received and considered performance information for the Fund as well as for a group of funds (the “Performance Universe”) selected by Lipper, Inc. (“Lipper”), an independent provider of investment company data. The Board was provided with a description of the methodology Lipper used to determine the similarity of the Fund with the funds included in the Performance Universe. The Board also noted that it had received and discussed with management information throughout the year at periodic intervals comparing the Fund’s performance against its benchmark(s).
The information comparing the Fund’s performance to that of its Performance Universe, consisting of all retail and institutional funds classified as “intermediate municipal debt funds” by Lipper, showed that the Fund’s performance for the 10-year period was below the median, while the Fund’s performance for the 1-year period was better than the median and the Fund’s performance for the 3- and 5-year periods was within the median range. Based on their review, the Board concluded that the Fund’s relative investment performance was acceptable.
Smith Barney Muni Funds 2005 Semi-Annual Report 47
Board Approval of Management Agreement (unaudited) (continued)
Management Fees and Expense Ratios
The Board reviewed and considered the contractual management fee (the “Contractual Management Fee”) payable by the Fund to the Manager in light of the nature, extent and quality of the management services provided by the Manager. The Board also reviewed and considered whether fee waiver and/or expense reimbursement arrangements are currently in place for the Fund and considered the actual fee rate (after taking any waivers and reimbursements into account) (the “Actual Management Fee”) and whether any fee waivers and reimbursements could be discontinued.
Additionally, the Board received and considered information comparing the Fund’s Contractual Management Fees and Actual Management Fee and the Fund’s overall expenses with those of funds in both the relevant expense group and a broader group of funds, each selected and provided by Lipper. The Board also reviewed information regarding fees charged by the Manager to other U.S. clients investing primarily in an asset class similar to that of the Fund including, where applicable, separate accounts. The Manager reviewed with the Board the significant differences in scope of services provided to the Fund and to these other clients, noting that the Fund is provided with administrative services, office facilities, Fund officers (including the Fund’s chief executive, chief financial and chief compliance officers), and that the Manager coordinates and oversees the provision of services to the Fund by other Fund providers. The Board considered the fee comparisons in light of the differences required to manage these different types of accounts. The Board received an analysis of complex-wide management fees provided by the Manager, which, among other things, set out a proposed framework of fees based on asset classes.
Management also discussed with the Board the Fund’s distribution arrangements. The Board was provided with information concerning revenues received by and certain expenses incurred by the Fund’s affiliated distributors and how the amounts received by the distributors are paid.
The information comparing the Fund’s Class A shares’ Contractual and Actual Management Fees as well as its actual total expense ratio to its Expense Group, consisting of 9 retail front-end load funds (including the Fund) classified as “intermediate municipal debt funds” by Lipper, showed that the Fund’s Contractual and Actual Management Fees were within the range of management fees paid by other funds in the Expense Group and, indeed, were better than the median. The Board noted that the Fund’s actual total expense ratio was better than the median and concluded that it was acceptable.
Taking all of the above into consideration, the Board determined that the Management Fee was reasonable in light of the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to the Fund under the Management Agreement.
Manager Profitability
The Board received and considered a profitability analysis of the Manager and its affiliates in providing services to the Fund. The Board also received profitability information with respect to the CAM fund complex as a whole. In addition, the Board received information with respect to the Manager’s allocation methodologies used in preparing this profitability
48 Smith Barney Muni Funds 2005 Semi-Annual Report
Board Approval of Management Agreement
(unaudited) (continued)
data as well as a report from an outside consultant that had reviewed the Manager’s methodology. The Manager’s profitability was considered not excessive in light of the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to the Fund.
Economies of Scale
The Board received and discussed information concerning whether the Manager realizes economies of scale as the Fund’s assets grow beyond current levels. However, because of the nature of the Manager’s business, the Board could not reach definitive conclusions as to whether the Manager might realize economies of scale or how great they may be.
Other Benefits to the Manager
The Board considered other benefits received by the Manager and their affiliates as a result of their relationship with the Fund, including soft dollar arrangements, receipt of brokerage and the opportunity to offer additional products and services to Fund shareholders.
In light of the costs of providing investment management and other services to the Fund and the Manager’s ongoing commitment to the Fund, the profits and other ancillary benefits that the Manager and its affiliates received were considered reasonable.
In light of all of the foregoing, the Board approved the Management Agreement to continue for another year.
No single factor reviewed by the Board was identified by the Board as the principal factor in determining whether to approve the Management Agreement. The Independent Board Members were advised by separate independent legal counsel throughout the process. The Board discussed the proposed continuance of the Management Agreement in a private session with their independent legal counsel at which no representatives of the Manager were present.
