PRESIDENT'S LETTER
Euro zone — continued uncertainty
Dear Shareholder,
Recent months have seen headlines and financial markets continue to focus on the ongoing euro zone debt crisis. Acknowledging that the status quo was untenable, in early December, Europe opted to move closer together rather than be torn apart. All 17 nations that use the euro and nine other European Union members agreed to a new fiscal compact that would invite closer scrutiny of individual country budgets. Ratings agencies were mostly unimpressed by these machinations; ultimately, Standard & Poor's downgraded nine countries in the region, including formerly AAA-rated France.
With the stability of Italy and Spain now in question, the need for an effective policy response has become even more acute. The new governments in both countries will have but a short grace period in which to demonstrate their resolve; both have been forced to pay yields at euro-era highs for newly issued bonds.
Across the Atlantic, the chasm between the two major political parties in the United States is as wide as ever, most recently evidenced by the failure of the Congressional "supercommittee" on deficit reduction. Notwithstanding the ongoing paralysis in Washington, the U.S. economy is showing new signs of momentum.
We expect the global economy to deliver positive, if uninspiring, growth into 2012 despite the euro zone's debt problems. We believe interest rates should remain low in major advanced countries. Markets — and risk assets in general — are likely to remain vulnerable to uncertainty until there is confidence that Europe has adequately addressed its issues.
In times of uncertainty investors historically have turned to sovereign credits, especially U.S. Treasury securities. This spotlights the critical role that governments play in defining the parameters of the financial markets and serving as foundations for generating value within economies. The current trend toward fiscal austerity downplays this important function and may prolong the global economic doldrums.
How should you respond to uncertainty in your own investment program? Don't try to time the markets. Keep your portfolio well diversified, and pay careful attention to the risks you are assuming. Talk to your financial advisor before you make any changes that might detour your portfolio from your long-term goals.
We appreciate your continued confidence in ING Funds, and we look forward to serving your investment needs in the future.
Sincerely,
Shaun Mathews

MARKET PERSPECTIVE: YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2011
In our semi-annual report we described how investor sentiment was generally positive through April. Many of the developed world's economies including the U.S., seemed to be returning to health, boosted by heavy, ongoing doses of stimulative and monetary medicine. This was despite natural disasters in Japan, the violent uncertainties of the "Arab Spring" in North Africa and the Middle East, not to mention a European sovereign debt crisis.
But the mood darkened in early May 2011. Global equities in the form of the MSCI World IndexSM measured in local currencies, including net reinvested dividends, slid from May through September, losing over 17%, before a remarkable October rally clawed back about half of this. For the whole fiscal year the Index lost 5.49%. (The MSCI World IndexSM returned (5.54)% for the year ended December 31, 2011, measured in U.S. dollars.)
A confluence of factors caused the deterioration in outlook after April. That month the latest unemployment rate was reported at 8.8%, the lowest in 24 months. New private sector jobs, well above 200,000, were added in each of January, February and March. But in May the unemployment rate rebounded to 9.1%. By September the employment report showed zero new jobs created in August. But more upbeat releases in later months revised this up, and by year end the three-month average of jobs created was back to 143,000 from just 35,000 in September.
In the housing market, home prices (based on the S&P/Case-Shiller 20-City Composite Home Price Index) fell every month in the year. Sales were depressed, despite improved affordability and record low mortgage interest rates, by tight credit with many homeowners in negative equity on their properties.
Gross Domestic Product ("GDP") growth had been reported at 3.1% (quarter-over-quarter, annualized) for the fourth quarter of 2010. On July 29, this was scaled down to 2.3%, among other revisions that showed the recession had been deeper and started earlier than previously thought. Worse, growth in the first quarter of 2011 was a barely perceptible 0.4%. When the second quarter's figure was finalized at just 1.3%, the common assessment was that the economy was operating at "stall-speed". There was relief in October when the first estimate of third quarter GDP growth was a much-improved 2.5%, although this was subsequently revised down to 1.8%.
Political deadlock weighed on sentiment throughout. A stopgap agreement to raise the debt ceiling did not stop Standard & Poors from downgrading the country's credit rating. A bipartisan "Debt Super Committee" appointed to negotiate a more lasting set of budget control measures, admitted defeat on November 21.
Other keenly watched figures like retail sales and wages & salaries were stagnant in the months up to October, improved in that month and were mixed thereafter. Purchasing managers' indices indicated expansion but not by much. Taken together, the data were inconclusive as the year ended but the consensus was that the once-feared return to recession now looked unlikely.
The euro zone's sovereign debt crisis continued to move markets. By early August it seemed to be veering out of control. When attention turned from Greece to the much bigger bond markets of Spain and especially Italy, the European Central Bank ("ECB") stepped in, uneasily, to buy their bonds — and some time. The threat to the euro zone banking system, where vast quantities of Italian and Spanish bonds are held, was clear.
Finally, a baby step towards closer fiscal union among euro zone countries was agreed in December, including restrictions on budget deficits with near automatic disciplinary procedures for violators. Bilateral loans of up to €200 billion would be made to the International Monetary Fund, presumably to fund rescue packages for individual nations. But it provided no lender of last resort with unlimited firepower, nor measures to promote growth and liberalize markets. Investors were under no illusions as the year ended that the crisis had been solved.
In U.S. fixed income markets, the Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Bond Index of investment grade bonds rose 7.84% in the fiscal year, while the Barclays Capital High Yield Bond — 2% Issuer Constrained Composite Index gained 4.96%. Most notable within the Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Bond Index was the remarkable 29.93% return on long-dated Treasuries, reflecting both the overall decline in risk appetite and quantitative easing.
U.S. equities, represented by the S&P 500® Index, including dividends, returned 2.11% for 2011, almost identical to the dividend yield. Sector returns ranged from (17.06)% for financials to 19.91% for utilities. The operating earnings per share of S&P 500® companies made new records in the second and third quarters of 2011, but estimates for future quarters were coming down as December ended.
In currency markets, the euro zone's problems finally took their toll, as the dollar gained 2.34% on the euro in 2011, which dropped sharply after October. The pound was barely changed despite late weakness: the dollar gained 0.10%. But the dollar fell back against the yen by 5.35% despite Bank of Japan intervention as that currency repeatedly breached post-war high levels.
In international markets, the MSCI Japan® Index slumped 18.73% in 2011. The economy contracted for three straight quarters before finally recovering, as it struggled to recover from the earthquake and tsunami of March as well as a strong yen. The MSCI Europe ex UK® Index sank 12.87%, weighed down by the recessionary threat of the sovereign debt crisis. Euro zone growth shrunk to 0.2% in the second and third quarters and unemployment stood at 10.3%, a euro-era high. The MSCI UK® Index slipped just 1.83%. Weak euro zone demand and fiscal austerity at home depressed stocks, within which, however, the well-represented energy, staples and telecoms sectors managed positive average returns.

ING BALANCED PORTFOLIO
PORTFOLIO MANAGERS' REPORT
ING Balanced Portfolio (the "Portfolio") seeks total return consisting of capital appreciation (both realized and unrealized) and current income; the secondary investment objective is long-term capital appreciation. The Portfolio is managed by Christopher Corapi, Christine Hurtsellers, CFA, Heather Hackett, CFA, and Paul Zemsky, CFA, Portfolio Managers, of ING Investment Management Co. LLC — the Sub-Adviser.
Performance: For the year ended December 31, 2011, the Portfolio's Class I shares provided a total return of (1.40)% compared to the S&P Target Risk Growth Index, Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, MSCI Europe, Australasia and Far East Index ("MSCI EAFE® Index") and Russell 3000® Index, which returned 1.30%, 7.84%, (12.14)% and 1.03%, respectively, for the same period.
Portfolio Specifics: The United States showed surprising resilience in the face of weakness in several European countries and continued concerns over financial repercussions of the debt crisis. In the beginning of the year, the Portfolio was overweight U.S. large cap stocks, funded by underweighting international developed markets and core bonds when we felt positive economic figures and easy monetary policy were supportive for U.S. stocks. We began to reduce the risk of our portfolios as geopolitical and geophysical risks rose dramatically, particularly as events unfolded during the Arab Spring and Japan's devastating earthquake and subsequent tsunami. Our average allocation to emerging markets was adversely affected by inflation risks and monetary policy tightening, as a number of emerging market central banks raised interest rates.
In the summer, the Portfolio was positioned with an average overweight to core bonds and emerging markets compared to an underweight to foreign and domestic large-cap developed stocks. This positioning was taken as U.S. business conditions deteriorated, coupled with financial stress in Europe as the sovereign debt crisis worsened. By the end of the reporting period, the Portfolio unwound its average overweight to core bonds and underweight to U.S. and international large-cap stocks to a neutral equity/fixed income position as U.S. economic data improved. In addition, the risk of serious financial contagion resulting from the European sovereign debt crisis declined materially. Our tactical asset allocation effect, while unfavorable, had a minimal impact on the Portfolio's overall performance.
Stock selection detracted from the Portfolio's performance. Two of the four equity sleeves underperformed, one outperformed and in the other, emerging markets, exposure was gained through an exchange-traded fund which returned close to the emerging markets benchmark. One of the two fixed-income sleeves underperformed and the other essentially matched its benchmark. 2011 was a difficult year for active managers given the macro-driven nature of the market and the unusually high degree of correlation between stocks. Therefore, it is not surprising that, on average, our underlying strategies trailed their benchmarks throughout this year's volatile environment.
Stock selection in the energy and healthcare sectors hurt our large cap domestic exposure. International equities also suffered from weak stock selection, especially in both consumer sectors. Even though core and global bonds provided positive absolute performance, the Global Bond sleeve underperformed the Barclays Capital Global Aggregate Bond Index, due in part to exposures to European securities and financials, especially in the third quarter. The Intermediate Bond sleeve's return was close to that of the Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Bond Index. The Mid Cap Opportunities sleeve outperformed its benchmark, driven by strong stock selection evident in 7 out of 10 sectors, most notably in consumer staples and industrials offset to some extent by adverse selection in financials. We continue to feel confident with our current active managers' ability to find opportunities in these challenging markets.
Current Strategy and Outlook: Our central case for 2012 is for modest economic growth in the face of a risky global environment. We believe the U.S. will avoid recession in 2012 and post moderate growth; we believe consumer exuberance will be tempered by continued household balance sheet repair and sluggish housing and jobs markets. Inflation should remain contained despite a highly accommodative Federal Reserve Board. In the near term, we believe S&P 500® Index earnings for fourth quarter 2011 may come under pressure because of global inventory drawdowns and other factors. Against this backdrop, the Portfolio remains positioned in a neutral stance.

Based on a $10,000 initial investment, the graph and table above illustrate the total return of ING Balanced Portfolio against the indices indicated. An index has no cash in its portfolio, imposes no sales charges and incurs no operating expenses. An investor cannot invest directly in an index. The Portfolio's performance is shown without the imposition of any expenses or charges which are, or may be, imposed under your annuity contract. Total returns would have been lower if such expenses or charges were included.
The performance graph and table do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder will pay on portfolio distributions or the redemption of portfolio shares.
The performance shown may include the effect of fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements by the Investment Adviser and/or other service providers, which have the effect of increasing total return. Had all fees and expenses been considered, the total returns would have been lower.
The performance update illustrates performance for a variable investment option available through a variable annuity contract. The performance shown indicates past performance and is not a projection or prediction of future results. Actual investment returns and principal value will fluctuate so that shares and/or units, at redemption, may be worth more or less than their original cost.

ING BLACKROCK SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY OPPORTUNITIES PORTFOLIO
PORTFOLIO MANAGERS' REPORT
ING BlackRock Science and Technology Opportunities Portfolio (the "Portfolio") seeks long-term capital appreciation. The Portfolio is managed by Thomas P. Callan, CFA, Managing Director and Senior Portfolio Manager, Erin Xie, PhD, Managing Director and Portfolio Manager, Jean M. Rosenbaum, CFA, Managing Director and Portfolio Manager and Paul Ma, CFA and Portfolio Manager of BlackRock Advisors, LLC — the Sub-Adviser.*
Performance: For the year ended December 31, 2011, the Portfolio's Class I shares provided a total return of (10.44)% compared to the S&P 500® Index and the NYSE Arca Tech 100 IndexSM, which returned 2.11% and 0.27%, respectively, for the same period.
Portfolio Specifics: Portfolio returns were negative for the one year ended December 2011. Comparatively speaking, the Portfolio's performance trailed the NYSE Arca Tech 100 IndexSM. The Portfolio's most challenging quarters were the second and fourth quarters. The factors that materially affected Portfolio performance in the second quarter centered on exposures within the semiconductors and semiconductor equipment sub-industries. These industries, in addition to a cautious stance on hardware, again detracted from performance in the fourth quarter.
In retrospect, the investment team made two wrong calls in the second quarter — one information technology ("IT") related and one macro related. On the IT side, the team expected a continuation of strong IT capital expenditures ("capex") after a positive finish to 2010. At the time, capex intensity was not that high and the move to smaller geometrics appeared to be happening at a faster pace, driven by the insatiable demand for smart-phones. In terms of macro, the team viewed the economic soft-patch tied to exogenous events such as the Arab Spring and Japanese earthquake as temporary in nature and that a rebound would follow. Unfortunately, neither judgment materialized as expected causing the Portfolio's more economically geared holdings, like Micron Technology, Inc. and MEMC Electronic Materials, Inc., to underperform. In a similar fashion, positioning in Google, Inc. and IntraLinks Holdings also underwhelmed as advertisement spending and softness in enterprise sales hurt their core businesses, respectively. Lastly, heightened economic concerns led to a continuation from the first quarter of investor rotation into less economically sensitive sectors like healthcare. The Portfolio's large underweight and stock selection in biotechnology and pharmaceuticals combined to be additional detractors in this time period.
In the fourth quarter, relative underperformance came from stock selection in semiconductors and hardware. The investment team first saw evidence of bottoming in the semiconductor space in the third quarter. Stocks reacted positively to announced earnings and optimism began to build over a possible slowdown in inventory drawdowns. Along with the existing exposures, portfolio weight increased with names such as Fairchild Semiconductor International, Inc. and Avago Technologies Ltd. as a result. These trades worked well initially, but fears of a lingering inventory overhang resurfaced as slower end demand prompted several companies to cut guidance. On hardware, after canvassing several Chief Information Officers ("CIO"), the team felt enterprise spending on new equipment such as switchers & routers would be more challenged than spending on network security and business analytics software. Portfolio positioning reflected such opinions as evidenced by a near 2:1 weight differential between software & services and hardware & equipment. In comparison, the benchmark's ratio is closer to 5:4. While this positioning call proved prescient in the market meltdown, the investment team under-appreciated how quickly hardware-related names tied to the consumer would rebound in the fourth quarter as sentiment improved. In the end, hardware wound up outperforming software by over 900 basis points in the quarter as measured by the constituents of the benchmark.
Current Strategy and Outlook: Looking forward, the strategy framework remains similar to the one in place over 2011. The investment team believes a global recession is ultimately averted, the European crisis will be resolved and China will successfully engineer a soft-landing. However, our confidence in this baseline forecast is quite low. As a result, portfolio positioning will remain modestly geared towards sustained economic expansion and risk targets will be held in check.
From an IT perspective, positioning is biased towards a few areas at period end. Firstly, while CIOs continue to trim their IT spending, we believe consumers are expanding their budgets; therefore, the Portfolio favors consumer-facing IT, such as Google, Inc. for internet search and Intuit for taxes. Secondly, there are select opportunities in semiconductors and networking equipment where we believe valuations are attractive and end demand is firm enough to begin inventory replenishment. Lastly, the Portfolio continues to hold exposure to mission critical services such as security software and business analytics.
Within healthcare, positioning in large cap pharmaceuticals has increased. This change has taken the weight in this sector up to nearly 8%, which is more than most Morningstar Technology peers, but still meaningfully underweight the NYSE Arca Tech 100 IndexSM.
* Effective September 1, 2011, Paul Ma was added as a portfolio manager to the Portfolio.

Based on a $10,000 initial investment, the graph and table above illustrate the total return of ING BlackRock Science and Technology Opportunities Portfolio against the indices indicated. An index has no cash in its portfolio, imposes no sales charges and incurs no operating expenses. An investor cannot invest directly in an index. The Portfolio's performance is shown without the imposition of any expenses or charges which are, or may be, imposed under your annuity contract. Total returns would have been lower if such expenses or charges were included.
The performance graph and table do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder will pay on portfolio distributions or the redemption of portfolio shares.
The performance shown may include the effect of fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements by the Investment Adviser and/or other service providers, which have the effect of increasing total return. Had all fees and expenses been considered, the total returns would have been lower.
The performance update illustrates performance for a variable investment option available through a variable annuity contract. The performance shown indicates past performance and is not a projection or prediction of future results.

ING GROWTH AND INCOME PORTFOLIO
PORTFOLIO MANAGERS' REPORT
ING Growth and Income Portfolio (the "Portfolio") seeks to maximize total return through investments in a diversified portfolio of common stocks and securities convertible into common stock. It is anticipated that capital appreciation and investment income will both be major factors in achieving total return. The Portfolio is managed by Christopher F. Corapi and Michael Pytosh, Portfolio Managers of ING Investment Management Co. LLC — the Sub-Adviser.
Performance: For the year ended December 31, 2011, the Portfolio's Class I shares provided a total return of (0.27)% compared to the S&P 500® Index, which returned 2.11% for the same period.
Portfolio Specifics: The first nine months of 2011 were marred by the European sovereign debt crisis, which negatively impacted overall market sentiment. Growth prospects for the global economy continued to trend downward, resulting in choppy macro-driven equity markets. Investors acted on risk aversion — not company fundamentals — and high correlations within the market made it a challenging environment for stock pickers. During this period the Portfolio lost ground relative to the benchmark. The Portfolio was able to recover some of that underperformance in the fourth quarter, however, when security selection in the industrials, consumer discretionary and technology sectors was favorable for returns.
During the reporting period as a whole, security selection in the healthcare sector, particularly in pharmaceutical companies, detracted from performance. Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd. was the worst performing healthcare stock in the Portfolio during the period, but was not among the top detractors from results; neither was any other healthcare stock.
Holdings in the energy sector, particularly our coal and consumable fuels and oil and gas equipment and services companies, were also unfavorable for returns. Our position in Arch Coal, Inc. ("Arch Coal") was detrimental to results. The coal market was weak during the period due to pessimism about Chinese growth and dampened natural gas pricing, the latter of which acts as an alternative fuel and caps coal pricing. In addition, investors did not view Arch Coal's acquisition of International Coal Group positively, causing a further sell-off in its shares. However, we believe that the acquisition helps Arch Coal further balance its diversified coal portfolio, especially in the structurally undersupplied coal markets. We reduced our position in the company but continue to hold a small position, as we believe that Arch Coal continues to be in a strong competitive position and could benefit from improving demand in the electrical, industrial and steel markets, both domestically and globally.
Within financials, our position in Citigroup Inc. ("Citigroup") detracted from returns. Citigroup performed poorly due to the macro selloff in larger diversified financial companies with exposure to the mortgage issues and higher European exposure. We own Citigroup because the stock was selling below its tangible book value, while it retained attractive attributes in a continued macro recovery environment. Our research showed that, over half of its revenues now come from faster growth international markets. Citigroup was also experiencing improving credit metrics, which will allow management to refocus on revenue growth. Additionally, the company's capital levels are solid. We continue to hold the stock, as we believe it is deeply discounted, and the company remains less exposed than higher valued peers to issues like mortgage put-backs and securitization lawsuits.
Another position in financials, Comerica Inc. ("Comerica"), was unfavorable to returns. Comerica performed poorly in January 2011, when the company announced its first bank acquisition in more than a decade. Investors were disappointed that Comerica paid a surprisingly high price for what was otherwise a sound strategic deal. Since then, the overall bank industry has fallen given concerns about industry revenue growth prospects in a weaker economy. Comerica's shares have further suffered as expectations for interest rate hikes, which would have been beneficial for the company, have been pushed out further into the future. Given these issues, we sold out of this position during the reporting period.
The Portfolio benefited from not owning Bank of America Corp., which was among the worst performers for the year. Its shares declined sharply due to litigation issues related to the mortgage foreclosure processes. Also within the consumer sector, our positions in Macy's, Inc. and Altria Group, Inc. added to returns.
Current Strategy and Outlook: We have been taking advantage of market volatility to add to existing positions during corrections or initiate new positions. Currently the portfolio is underweight in the industrials, financials — within diversified financials and real estate subsectors and utilities sectors. We have a slight overweight in the telecommunication services sector. The portfolio was underweight consumer staples, particularly in the household and personal products, as well as the food and staples retailing subsectors. Other underweights were in the utilities and the health care sectors, the latter being driven by our lack of exposure to pharmaceuticals, biotechnology and life sciences companies.
Portfolio holdings and characteristics are subject to change and may not be representative of current holdings and characteristics. The outlook for this Portfolio may differ from that presented for other ING Funds. Performance for the different classes of shares will vary based on differences in fees associated with each class.

ING INTERMEDIATE BOND PORTFOLIO
PORTFOLIO MANAGERS' REPORT
ING Intermediate Bond Portfolio (the "Portfolio") seeks to maximize total return consistent with reasonable risk. The Portfolio seeks its objective through investments in a diversified portfolio consisting primarily of debt securities. It is anticipated that capital appreciation and investment income will both be major factors in achieving total return. The Portfolio is managed by Christine Hurtsellers, Matthew Toms and Michael Mata, Portfolio Managers of ING Investment Management Co. LLC — the Sub-Adviser.
Performance: For the year ended December 31, 2011, the Portfolio's Class I shares provided a total return of 7.54% compared to the Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, which returned 7.84% for the same period.
Portfolio Specifics: The Portfolio's duration and yield curve positioning throughout the period was managed reasonably close to that of the benchmark. In the summer of 2011, we had a modest duration overweight exposure, particularly to rates outside the United States, which benefited the Portfolio as rates fell and bond prices rose in the third quarter of the year.
Throughout the year, our overweights to several high quality spread sectors such as commercial mortgage-backed securities ("CMBS"), high-yield and investment-grade corporate bonds benefited the Portfolio and contributed to positive relative returns.
Security selection on balance was a slight drag on performance over the year. While issue selection within agency residential mortgage-backed securities ("RMBS") and CMBS helped performance through the year, security selection within corporate bonds and U.S. government related securities modestly underperformed in 2011.
Forwards, swaps and futures were used in the management of duration and yield curve. As mentioned above, duration and yield curve positioning were contributors to relative outperformance over the year. Currency forwards were used in 2011 and our currency management was a net contributor for the Portfolio. We also employed credit default swaps in the managing of our corporate bond exposures which was a net positive from an asset or sector selection standpoint but a drag in security selection for the year.
Current Outlook and Strategy: The volatile and uncertain path markets took in 2011 has etched the way forward at the onset of 2012. The euro zone remains shrouded in uncertainty and will dominate headlines until European leadership remedies past failures with a credible solution to the region's fiscal imbalances and systemic debt woes. The U.S. fiscal picture is not much rosier than Europe's at the start of a crucial election year. We believe positive economic indicators, including lower jobless claims, stronger payrolls and more robust manufacturing, support the theme of a U.S. economy that continues to muddle along.
We continue to favor the U.S. dollar over the euro and pound. We are biased against Eastern European currencies such as the Czech koruna and Hungarian forint, given their high correlation to the euro zone. Elsewhere, we favor more fundamentally sound currencies in Latin America and Asia, including the Brazilian real, Korean won, Colombian peso and Indonesian rupiah, which exhibit less dependency on Europe.
Corporate fundamentals remain healthy but macro headlines are likely to drive markets again in 2012. Positive U.S. economic data and favorable seasonal factors bode well for near-term corporate performance. Credit fundamentals for high-yield remain strong and the default outlook is still quite favorable. In our opinion, the U.S. high-yield story is more attractive than that of Europe.
We believe significantly lower debt levels and more favorable demographic trends for working age populations throughout Latin America and Asia favor emerging markets over developed countries such as the U.S., Europe and Japan. Credit expansion is slowing in China and the housing market is beginning to correct, but we expect China and Asia, excluding Japan, to be supportive of global growth. The developed world will continue to walk the path of political uncertainty, resulting in headline-driven volatility and wavering sentiment.
Agency mortgage-backed securities performed well in late December and are off to a positive start in 2012. We do not expect a massive increase in aggregate prepayment speeds with the second version of the Home Affordable Refinance Program, but there may be "pockets" within mortgage-backed securities ("MBS") that are exposed. Non-agency residential RMBS have again become an intriguing asset class. Loss-adjusted yields look attractive despite fundamental uncertainties. CMBS experienced a sustained rally to end 2011 and start 2012, diminishing relative value versus other risk sectors. Nonetheless, the underpinnings of the rally, light supply and strong demand, remain.
We expect interest rates to stay low and yield spreads to remain within a reasonable range over the medium term. Therefore, we believe the bulk of total and excess returns in 2012 will come from finding attractive yields among higher quality spread-sector assets.

ING MONEY MARKET PORTFOLIO
PORTFOLIO MANAGERS' REPORT
ING Money Market Portfolio (the "Portfolio") seeks to provide high current return, consistent with preservation of capital and liquidity, through investment in high-quality money market instruments, while maintaining a stable share price of $1.00 per share. The Portfolio is managed by David S. Yealy, Portfolio Manager of ING Investment Management Co. LLC — the Sub-Adviser.
Performance: For the year ended December 31, 2011, the Portfolio's shares provided a total return of 0.02% compared to the iMoneyNet First Tier Retail Index, which returned 0.01% for the same period.
Portfolio Specifics: Preservation of capital, limiting credit risk and keeping an excess liquidity cushion due to the still elevated risks in the market remained our primary objectives for the Portfolio throughout the period. Maximizing the yield and return of the Portfolio remained a secondary objective in light of current market conditions and risks, as well as low absolute level of interest rates. The Portfolio's investment adviser continued to waive fees in order to maintain a net yield of at least 0.00%, as do most of our competitors, given the historically low level of interest rates on money market securities.
The first quarter of 2011 was highlighted by global events, including protests in the Middle East and Northern Africa, as well as the devastating earthquake in Japan. Gross domestic product ("GDP") growth and consumer spending in the U.S. continued to confirm that the modest economic recovery remained on track despite numerous headwinds.
Two major themes were the drivers of the markets during the second quarter. First, the contagion risk for the large European banks and sovereigns increased. Second, the debate on increasing the debt ceiling and reducing the budget deficit in the U.S. came to the forefront in June. Various economic statistics in the U.S. came in below market expectations throughout the quarter.
Uncertainty increased during the third quarter. First, Standard & Poor's downgraded U.S. long-term debt to AA+ from AAA. The market focus shifted back to the European credit crisis, which continued to deteriorate. Economic data during the quarter was mostly disappointing and led to increased concerns over a new recession both in the U.S. and globally. The Federal Open Market Committee ("FOMC") responded to the deteriorating economic environment by announcing at August meeting that it would keep the federal funds rate anchored near zero through at least the middle of 2013. This was followed by the announcement of "Operation Twist," which included the selling of short-term Treasury holdings with the funds reinvested into long-term Treasuries. The deterioration in Europe led to a disruption of and increased concerns over short-term funding for the majority of the European banks, which issue short-term debt in the U.S. Many money market investors either reduced exposure to the European bank issuers or shortened their maturities for those issuers as existing positions matured.
The main market focus during the fourth quarter remained squarely on Europe and how the European Union would address deteriorating credit conditions in Greece, Spain, Italy and the other weak sovereign and bank issuers in those countries. Somewhat overlooked was modestly improving economic conditions in the U.S.
The Portfolio followed a strategy of taking on a limited amount of interest rate risk while maintaining reduced longer-term credit exposure. The Portfolio ended the period with a 51 day weighted average maturity ("WAM"), which was longer than the peer average of 41 days for the iMoneyNet First Tier Retail category. The Portfolio reduced its exposure to European banks during the period by not reinvesting maturities, or by direct sales of those issuers which we determined to be of increased risk due to the deteriorating situation in Europe. We increased our exposure to short-term U.S. government securities at a slight yield concession to higher yielding bank debt in order to further reduce credit risk.
Current Strategy and Outlook: Our current strategy for the Portfolio will be to continue to focus on maintaining an extended WAM posture with limited credit risk. We will look to extend our WAM during any backup in rates to levels that offer enough yield pickup relative to the increased risk. In our view, these backups could be temporary in nature in light of FOMC's monetary policy. Exposure to European banks is expected to remain low or potentially be reduced further until we see resolution to the European sovereign debt crisis and funding issues.
Preservation of capital and liquidity remain our top objectives. We plan on maintaining reasonable daily liquidity and short-term liquidity to give the Portfolio flexibility to take advantage of any periods of temporary increases in yields.
Principal Risk Factors: Although the Portfolio seeks to preserve the value of your investment at $1.00 per share, it is possible to lose money by investing in the Portfolio.
* Please see Note 5 for more information regarding the contractual waiver in place to reimburse certain expenses of the Portfolio to the extent necessary to assist the Portfolio in maintaining a net yield of not less than 0.00%.

ING SMALL COMPANY PORTFOLIO
PORTFOLIO MANAGERS' REPORT
ING Small Company Portfolio (the "Portfolio") seeks growth of capital primarily through investment in a diversified portfolio of common stocks of companies with smaller market capitalizations. The Portfolio is managed by Joseph Basset, CFA, and Steve Salopek, Portfolio Managers of ING Investment Management Co. LLC — the Sub Adviser.
Performance: For the year ended December 31, 2011, the Portfolio's Class I shares provided a total return of (2.49)% compared to the Russell 2000® Index, which returned (4.18)% for the same period.
Portfolio Specifics: The Russell 2000® Index declined in 2011 despite a strong fourth quarter and lagged large-caps. Despite signs of an early January effect in December, as the smallest of the small-caps outperformed, larger small-caps and higher quality names held up best for the year. Volatility and correlations were high this past year, resulting from a number of macro headwinds, including natural disaster, concerns regarding the U.S.'s economic recovery, the European debt overhang and ensuing political turmoil. Merger and acquisitions activity picked up. More than half of small-cap core funds outperformed the index in 2011, at 61.6%, while 45.3% of small-cap growth funds outperformed the index.
At the sector level for the Russell 2000® Index, defensive sectors held up best, as utilities, consumer staples and health care all turned in positive results for the year with utilities leading at 16.6%. Telecommunication services and materials had the weakest results, as the sectors were down 15.4% and 13.4%, respectively.
Stock selection within financials, industrials, materials and healthcare benefited the Portfolio during the period. Strong stock selection within utilities coupled with our overweight in this sector also added to performance. Notable outperformance within financials was due to strong stock selection within insurance, real estate investment trusts ("REITs") and thrifts and mortgage finance as well as stock selection and our overweight in consumer finance. Industrials benefited from stock selection within machinery and commercial services and supplies. Strong stock selection within paper and forest products added value within materials, while our overweight coupled with stock selection within electric utilities added to performance within utilities.
Stock selection within consumer discretionary and energy detracted most from performance. In energy, returns were held back by stock selection within oil, gas and consumable fuels and energy equipment and services. Within consumer discretionary, stock selection within specialty retail and hotels, restaurants and leisure detracted from performance.
Delphi Financial Group, Inc. ("Delphi Financial Group") and SuccessFactors, Inc. ("SuccessFactors") contributed significantly to performance over the period. Delphi Financial Group provides specialty insurance and insurance-related services. The stock's outperformance was the result of the announcement that Tokio Marine Group of Japan agreed to buy Delphi Financial Group for $2.7 billion, a 73% premium. The acquisition will increase Tokio Marine's overseas profit contribution and is in line with their aggressive expansion overseas. SuccessFactors provides cloud-based business execution software solutions that enable organizations to bridge the gap between business strategy and results worldwide. SAP announced that it will acquire SuccessFactors for $3.4 billion, a 52% premium. The acquisition will provide SAP with a cloud-based human resources application set and will bring cloud software expertise to the company, which largely sells on-premise applications.
OfficeMax, Inc. ("OfficeMax") and Ruby Tuesday, Inc. ("Ruby Tuesday") were two of the largest detractors from performance over the period. OfficeMax sells office products to retail and business customers. The stock underperformed this year as earnings and investor sentiment came under pressure from a slow macro recovery, poor communications from the company and a competitive environment. We continue to hold the name as we believe that as the economy improves OfficeMax will gain traction in its turnaround which will lead to significant operating leverage and better earnings that will exceed investors' expectations, and that the stock is attractively valued.
Ruby Tuesday owns and operates casual dining restaurants throughout the U.S. and internationally. We invested in the company due to improving store level margins, strong free cash flow, better traffic than the industry and the potential to convert some underperforming units to higher performing ones. The company has had a couple of missteps this year as their same store sales strength reversed and store level margins came under pressure again. We continue to own this name because the company owns a large number of their restaurants and they are now willing to tap into those assets, along with their strong free cash flow, to pay down debt and buy back shares. We believe that this will help protect on the downside, while giving the company time to improve the restaurants' profitability.
Current Strategy and Outlook: We are cautious about the global macroeconomic landscape and continue to assess the potential impact that it may have on the performance of companies and valuations. Our portfolio positioning has not changed significantly. We remain nimble and continue to focus on what we believe are quality companies, i.e., companies that have strong managements, strong balance sheets and good cash flow generation capabilities. Even among cyclicals our primary focus is on management quality, cash flows and the strength of the balance sheet. Going forward, we believe that we are well positioned as we think that investors will continue to focus on companies' fundamentals due to the increased economic uncertainty.
Portfolio holdings and characteristics are subject to change and may not be representative of current holdings and characteristics. The outlook for this Portfolio may differ from that presented for other ING Funds. Performance for the different classes of shares will vary based on differences in fees associated with each class.

Based on a $10,000 initial investment, the graph and table above illustrate the total return of ING Small Company Portfolio against the index indicated. An index has no cash in its portfolio, imposes no sales charges and incurs no operating expenses. An investor cannot invest directly in an index. The Portfolio's performance is shown without the imposition of any expenses or charges which are, or may be, imposed under your annuity contract. Total returns would have been lower if such expenses or charges were included.
The performance graph and table do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder will pay on portfolio distributions or the redemption of portfolio shares.
The performance shown may include the effect of fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements by the Investment Adviser and/or other service providers, which have the effect of increasing total return. Had all fees and expenses been considered, the total returns would have been lower.
The performance update illustrates performance for a variable investment option available through a variable annuity contract. The performance shown indicates past performance and is not a projection or prediction of future results. Actual investment returns and principal value will fluctuate so that shares and/or units, at redemption, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Please log on to www.inginvestment.com or call (800) 992-0180 to get performance through the most recent month end.
This report contains statements that may be "forward-looking" statements. Actual results may differ materially from those projected in the "forward-looking" statements.
The views expressed in this report reflect those of the portfolio manager, only through the end of the period as stated on the cover. The portfolio manager's views are subject to change at any time based on market and other conditions.
Portfolio holdings are subject to change daily.

Effective March 1, 2002, ING Investments, LLC began serving as investment adviser and ING Investment Management Co., the former investment adviser, began serving as sub-adviser to the Portfolio.

SHAREHOLDER EXPENSE EXAMPLES (UNAUDITED)
As a shareholder of a Portfolio, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including redemption fees and exchange fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees, and other Portfolio expenses. These Examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in a Portfolio and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The Examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from July 1, 2011 to December 31, 2011. The Portfolios' expenses are shown without the imposition of any charges which are, or may be, imposed under your annuity contract. Expenses would have been higher if such charges were included.
Actual Expenses
The left section of the table shown below, "Actual Portfolio Return," provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this section, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first section under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During the Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The right section of the table shown below, "Hypothetical (5% return before expenses)," provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on a Portfolio's actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not a Portfolio's actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in a Portfolio and other mutual funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other mutual funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as redemption fees or exchange fees. Therefore, the hypothetical lines of the table are useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different mutual funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
The Shareholders and Board of Directors/Trustees
ING Balanced Portfolio, Inc., ING Variable Funds, ING Variable Portfolios, Inc., ING Intermediate Bond Portfolio, and ING Money Market Portfolio
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the portfolio of investments or summary portfolios of investments, as indicated, of ING Balanced Portfolio, a series of ING Balanced Portfolio, Inc., ING Growth and Income Portfolio, a series of ING Variable Funds, ING Small Company Portfolio and ING BlackRock Science and Technology Opportunities Portfolio, each a series of ING Variable Portfolios, Inc., ING Intermediate Bond Portfolio, and ING Money Market Portfolio, as of December 31, 2011, and the related statements of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the years in the two-year period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the years or periods in the five-year period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.
We conducted our audits 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 and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2011, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, or by other appropriate auditing procedures when replies from brokers were not received. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the aforementioned portfolios as of December 31, 2011, and the results of their operations, the changes in their net assets, and the financial highlights for the periods specified in the first paragraph above, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

(1) Total return is calculated assuming reinvestment of all dividends, capital gain distributions and return of capital distributions, if any, at net asset value and does not reflect the effect of insurance contract charges. Total return for periods less than one year is not annualized.
(2) Annualized for periods less than one year.
(3) Expense ratios do not include fees and expenses charged under the variable annuity contract or variable life insurance policy.
(4) Expense ratios reflect operating expenses of a Portfolio. Expenses before reductions/additions do not reflect amounts reimbursed by an Investment Adviser and/or Distributor or reductions from brokerage service arrangements or other expense offset arrangements and do not represent the amount paid by a Portfolio during periods when reimbursements or reductions occur. Expenses net of fee waivers reflect expenses after reimbursement by an Investment Adviser and/or Distributor but prior to reductions from brokerage service arrangements or other expense offset arrangements. Expenses net of all reductions/additions represent the net expenses paid by a Portfolio. Net investment income (loss) is net of all such additions or reductions.
(5) Commencement of operations.
(a) There was no impact on total return by the affiliate payment.
(b) NAV and per share amounts have been restated to reflect the stock split that occurred on October 7, 2008. Effective October 7, 2008, the Portfolio converted to a stable share price of $1.00 per share. In connection with this change, the Portfolio utilized a stock split and distributed additional shares to its shareholders (adjustment factor: 12.926 shares to 1 share) such that each shareholder's proportionate interest and aggregate value of investment in the Portfolio remained the same.
• Calculated using average number of shares outstanding throughout the period.
* Amount is less than $0.005 or 0.005% or more than $(0.005) or (0.005)%.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2011
NOTE 1 — ORGANIZATION
Organization. The ING Variable Product Funds are comprised of ING Balanced Portfolio, Inc., ING Variable Funds, ING Variable Portfolios, Inc., ING Intermediate Bond Portfolio, and ING Money Market Portfolio (collectively, "Registrants"), all of which are open-end investment management companies registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended ("1940 Act" or "Act").
ING Balanced Portfolio, Inc. is a company incorporated under the laws of Maryland on December 14, 1988 with one diversified series, ING Balanced Portfolio ("Balanced"). ING Variable Funds is a business trust formed under the laws of Massachusetts on January 25, 1984 with one diversified series, ING Growth and Income Portfolio ("Growth and Income"). ING Variable Portfolios, Inc. is a company incorporated under the laws of Maryland on June 4, 1996 and has twenty separate active diversified and non-diversified series. The two diversified series that are in this report are: ING Small Company Portfolio ("Small Company"), and ING BlackRock Science and Technology Opportunities Portfolio ("Science and Technology Opportunities"). ING Intermediate Bond Portfolio is a business trust formed under the laws of Massachusetts on January 25, 1984 with one diversified series, ING Intermediate Bond Portfolio ("Intermediate Bond"). ING Money Market Portfolio is a business trust formed under the laws of Massachusetts on January 25, 1984 with one diversified series, ING Money Market Portfolio ("Money Market"). Each of the portfolios is a "Portfolio" and collectively, they are the "Portfolios".
Each Portfolio offers at least two of the following classes of shares: Adviser ("ADV") Class, Class I, Class S and Service 2 Class (Class "S2") shares. Each class has equal rights as to class and voting privileges. The classes differ principally in the applicable distribution and shareholder service fees. Shareholders of each class also bear certain expenses that pertain to that particular class. All shareholders bear the common expenses of the Portfolios and earn income and realized gains/losses from the Portfolios pro rata based on the average daily net assets of each class, without distinction between share classes. Expenses that are specific to a portfolio or a class are charged directly to that portfolio or class. Other operating expenses shared by several portfolios are generally allocated among those portfolios based on average net assets. Distributions are determined separately for each class based on income and expenses allocable to each class. Realized gain distributions are allocated to each class pro rata based on the shares outstanding of each class on the date of distribution. Differences in per share dividend rates generally result from differences in separate class expenses, including distribution and shareholder service fees, if applicable.
Small Company is closed to new shareholders, except for shares purchased by: (1) certain insurance company separate accounts that are currently offering the Portfolio as an investment option under Variable Contracts; (2) certain Qualified Plans outside the separate account context; (3) custodial accounts; (4) certain investment advisers and their affiliates in connection with the creation or management of the Portfolio; and (5) registered investment companies. Investments by currently invested separate accounts, Qualified Plans, custodial accounts, certain investment advisers and their affiliates, and investment companies may be made on behalf of existing and future participants. The closure does not affect share purchases through the reinvestment of dividends and distributions.
ING Investments, LLC serves as the investment adviser ("ING Investments" or the "Investment Adviser") to the Portfolios. ING Investment Management Co. LLC ("ING IM") serves as the sub-adviser to each of the Portfolios except Science and Technology Opportunities. ING Funds Services, LLC serves as the administrator ("IFS" or the "Administrator") for the Portfolios. ING Investments Distributor, LLC ("IID" or the "Distributor") serves as the principal underwriter to the Portfolios.
The Investment Adviser, ING IM, IFS and IID are indirect, wholly-owned subsidiaries of ING Groep N.V. ("ING Groep"). ING Groep is a global financial institution of Dutch origin offering banking, investments, life insurance and retirement services.
ING Groep has adopted a formal restructuring plan that was approved by the European Commission in November 2009 under which the ING life insurance businesses, including the retirement services and investment management businesses, which include the Investment Adviser and its affiliates, would be separated from ING Groep by the end of 2013. To achieve this goal, ING Groep announced in November 2010 that it plans to pursue two separate Initial Public Offerings: one a U.S. focused offering that would include U.S. based insurance, retirement services, and investment management operations: and the other a European based offering for European and Asian based insurance and investment management operations. ING Groep recently announced that it will explore options other than an initial public offering for its Asian insurance and investment management businesses. There can be no
29

NOTE 1 — ORGANIZATION (continued)
assurance that the restructuring plan will be carried out through two offerings or at all.
The restructuring plan and the uncertainty about its implementation, whether implemented through the planned public offerings or through other means, in whole or in part, may be disruptive to the businesses of ING entities, including the ING entities that service the Portfolios, and may cause, among other things, interruption or reduction of business and services, diversion of management's attention from day-to-day operations, and loss of key employees or customers. A failure to complete the offerings or other means of implementation on favorable terms could have a material adverse impact on the operations of the businesses subject to the restructuring plan. The restructuring plan may result in the Investment Adviser's loss of access to services and resources of ING Groep, which could adversely affect its businesses and profitability. In addition, the divestment of ING businesses, including the Investment Adviser, may potentially be deemed a "change of control" of each entity. A change of control would result in the termination of the Portfolios' advisory and sub-advisory agreements, which would trigger the necessity for new agreements that would require approval of the Board, and may trigger the need for shareholder approval. Currently, the Investment Adviser does not anticipate that the restructuring will have a material adverse impact on the Portfolios or their operations and administration.
NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following significant accounting policies are consistently followed by the Portfolios in the preparation of their financial statements. Such policies are in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") for investment companies.
A. Security Valuation. All investments in securities are recorded at their estimated fair value, as described below. Investments in equity securities traded on a national securities exchange are valued at the last reported sale price. Securities reported by NASDAQ are valued at the NASDAQ official closing prices. Securities traded on an exchange or NASDAQ for which there has been no sale and securities traded in the over-the-counter-market are valued at the mean between the last reported bid and ask prices. All investments quoted in foreign currencies are valued daily in U.S. dollars on the basis of the foreign currency exchange rates prevailing at that time. Debt securities acquired with more than 60 days to maturity are valued using matrix pricing methods determined by an independent pricing service which takes into consideration such factors as yields, maturities, liquidity, ratings and traded prices in similar or identical securities. Securities for which valuations are not readily available from an independent pricing service may be valued by brokers which use prices provided by market makers or estimates of fair market value obtained from yield data relating to investments or securities with similar characteristics. U.S. government obligations are valued by using market quotations or independent pricing services that use prices provided by market-makers or estimates of market values obtained from yield data relating to instruments or securities with similar characteristics. Investments in open-end mutual funds are valued at net asset value ("NAV"). Investments in securities of sufficient credit quality maturing in 60 days or less are valued at amortized cost which approximates fair value.
Securities and assets for which market quotations are not readily available (which may include certain restricted securities, which are subject to limitations as to their sale) are valued at their fair values, as defined in the 1940 Act, and as determined in good faith by or under the supervision of the Portfolios' Board of Directors/Trustees ("Board"), in accordance with methods that are specifically authorized by the Board. Securities traded on exchanges, including foreign exchanges, which close earlier than the time that a Portfolio calculates its NAV may also be valued at their fair values as defined by the 1940 Act, and as determined in good faith by or under the supervision of the Board, in accordance with methods that are specifically authorized by the Board. All such fair valuations are made in accordance with valuation procedures of the Portfolios (the "Valuation Procedures") which have been approved by the Board. The valuation techniques applied in any specific instance are set forth in the Valuation Procedures and may vary from case to case. With respect to a restricted security, for example, consideration is generally given to the cost of the investment, the market value of any unrestricted securities of the same class at the time of valuation, the potential expiration of restrictions on the security, the existence of any registration rights, the costs to the Portfolios related to registration of the security, as well as factors relevant to the issuer
30
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2011 (CONTINUED)
NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
itself. Consideration may also be given to the price and extent of any public trading in similar securities of the issuer or comparable companies' securities. The value of a foreign security traded on an exchange outside the United States is generally based on its price on the principal foreign exchange where it trades as of the time a Portfolio determines its NAV or if the foreign exchange closes prior to the time a Portfolio determines its NAV, the most recent closing price of the foreign security on its principal exchange. Trading in certain non-U.S. securities may not take place on all days on which the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") is open. Further, trading takes place in various foreign markets on days on which the NYSE is not open. Consequently, the calculation of a Portfolio's NAV may not take place contemporaneously with the determination of the prices of securities held by a Portfolio in foreign securities markets. Further, the value of a Portfolio's assets may be significantly affected by foreign trading on days when a shareholder cannot purchase or redeem shares of a Portfolio. In calculating a Portfolio's NAV, foreign securities denominated in foreign currency are converted to U.S. dollar equivalents. If an event occurs after the time at which the market for foreign securities held by a Portfolio closes but before the time that a Portfolio's NAV is calculated, such event may cause the closing price on the foreign exchange to not represent a readily available reliable market value quotation for such securities at the time a Portfolio determines its NAV. In such a case, a Portfolio will use the fair value of such securities as determined under a Portfolio's valuation procedures. Events after the close of trading on a foreign market that could require a Portfolio to fair value some or all of its foreign securities include, among others, securities trading in the U.S. and other markets, corporate announcements, natural and other disasters, and political and other events. Among other elements of analysis in the determination of a security's fair value, the Board has authorized the use of one or more independent research services to assist with such determinations. An independent research service may use statistical analyses and quantitative models to help determine fair value as of the time a Portfolio calculates its NAV. There can be no assurance that such models accurately reflect the behavior of the applicable markets or the effect of the behavior of such markets on the fair value of securities, or that such markets will continue to behave in a fashion that is consistent with such models. Unlike the closing price of a security on an exchange, fair value determinations employ elements of judgment. Consequently, the fair value assigned to a security may not represent the actual value that a Portfolio could obtain if it were to sell the security at the time of the close of the NYSE. Pursuant to procedures adopted by the Board, a Portfolio is not obligated to use the fair valuations suggested by any research service, and valuation recommendations provided by such research services may be overridden if other events have occurred or if other fair valuations are determined in good faith to be more accurate. Unless an event is such that it causes a Portfolio to determine that the closing prices for one or more securities do not represent readily available reliable market value quotations at the time a Portfolio determines its NAV, events that occur between the time of the close of the foreign market on which they are traded and the close of regular trading on the NYSE will not be reflected in a Portfolio's NAV.
Money Market uses the amortized cost method to value its portfolio securities, which approximates fair value. The amortized cost method involves valuing a security at its cost and amortizing any discount or premium over the period until maturity, regardless of the impact of fluctuating interest rates or the fair value of the security.
Fair value is defined as the price that the Portfolios would receive to sell an asset or pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Each investment asset or liability of the Portfolios is assigned a level at measurement date based on the significance and source of the inputs to its valuation. Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities are classified as "Level 1," inputs other than quoted prices for an asset or liability that are observable are classified as "Level 2" and unobservable inputs, including the adviser's or sub-adviser's, judgment about the assumptions that a market participant would use in pricing an asset or liability are classified as "Level 3." The inputs used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities. Short-term securities of sufficient credit quality which are valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair value, are generally considered to be Level 2 securities under applicable accounting rules. A table summarizing the
31
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2011 (CONTINUED)
NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Portfolios' investments under these levels of classification is included following the Summary Portfolios of Investments.
For the year ended December 31, 2011, there have been no significant changes to the fair valuation methodologies.
B. Security Transactions and Revenue Recognition. Securities transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Realized gains and losses are reported on the basis of identified cost of securities sold. Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, or for certain foreign securities, when the information becomes available to the Portfolios. Premium amortization and discount accretion are determined by the effective yield method.
C. Foreign Currency Translation. The books and records of the Portfolios are maintained in U.S. dollars. Any foreign currency amounts are translated into U.S. dollars on the following basis:
(1) Market value of investment securities, other assets and liabilities — at the exchange rates prevailing at the end of the day.
(2) Purchases and sales of investment securities, income and expenses — at the rates of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions.
Although the net assets and the market values are presented at the foreign exchange rates at the end of the day, the Portfolios do not isolate the portion of the results of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from the fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities held. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gains or losses from investments. For securities, which are subject to foreign withholding tax upon disposition, liabilities are recorded on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities for the estimated tax withholding based on the securities' current market value. Upon disposition, realized gains or losses on such securities are recorded net of foreign withholding tax.
Reported net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from sales of foreign currencies, currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest, and foreign withholding taxes recorded on a Portfolio's books, and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses arise from changes in the value of assets and liabilities other than investments in securities at fiscal year end, resulting from changes in the exchange rate. Foreign security and currency transactions may involve certain considerations and risks not typically associated with investing in U.S. companies and U.S. government securities. These risks include, but are not limited to, revaluation of currencies and future adverse political and economic developments, which could cause securities and their markets to be less liquid and prices more volatile than those of comparable U.S. companies and U.S. government securities.
D. Risk Exposures and the Use of Derivative Instruments. Certain Portfolios' investment strategies permit the Portfolios to enter into various types of derivatives contracts, including, but not limited to, futures contracts, forward foreign currency exchange contracts, credit default swaps, interest rate swaps, total return swaps, and purchased and written options. In doing so, a Portfolio will employ strategies in differing combinations to permit it to increase or decrease the level of risk, or change the level or types of exposure to market risk factors. This may allow a Portfolio to pursue its objectives more quickly and efficiently than if it were to make direct purchases or sales of securities capable of affecting a similar response to market factors.
Market Risk Factors. In pursuit of its investment objectives, a Portfolio may seek to use derivatives to increase or decrease its exposure to the following market risk factors:
Credit Risk. Credit risk relates to the ability of the issuer to meet interest and principal payments, or both, as they come due. In general, lower-grade, higher-yield bonds are subject to credit risk to a greater extent than lower-yield, higher-quality bonds.
Equity Risk. Equity risk relates to the change in value of equity securities as they relate to increases or decreases in the general market.
Foreign Exchange Rate Risk. Foreign exchange rate risk relates to the change in the U.S. dollar value of a security held that is denominated in a foreign currency. The U.S. dollar value of a foreign currency denominated security will decrease as the dollar appreciates against the currency, while the
32
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2011 (CONTINUED)
NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
U.S. dollar value will increase as the dollar depreciates against the currency.
Interest Rate Risk. Interest rate risk refers to the fluctuations in value of fixed-income securities resulting from the inverse relationship between price and yield. For example, an increase in general interest rates will tend to reduce the market value of already issued fixed-income investments, and a decline in general interest rates will tend to increase their value. In addition, debt securities with longer durations, which tend to have higher yields, are subject to potentially greater fluctuations in value from changes in interest rates than obligations with shorter durations.
Risks of Investing in Derivatives. A Portfolio's use of derivatives can result in losses due to unanticipated changes in the market risk factors and the overall market. In instances where a Portfolio is using derivatives to decrease, or hedge, exposures to market risk factors for securities held by a Portfolio, there are also risks that those derivatives may not perform as expected resulting in losses for the combined or hedged positions.
The use of these strategies involves certain special risks, including a possible imperfect correlation, or even no correlation, between price movements of derivative instruments and price movements of related investments. While some strategies involving derivative instruments can reduce the risk of loss, they can also reduce the opportunity for gain or even result in losses by offsetting favorable price movements in related investments or otherwise, due to the possible inability of a Portfolio to purchase or sell a portfolio security at a time that otherwise would be favorable or the possible need to sell a portfolio security at a disadvantageous time because a Portfolio is required to maintain asset coverage or offsetting positions in connection with transactions in derivative instruments. Additional associated risks from investing in derivatives also exist and potentially could have significant effects on the valuation of the derivative and a Portfolio. Associated risks are not the risks that a Portfolio is attempting to increase or decrease exposure to, per their investment objectives, but are the additional risks from investing in derivatives. Examples of these associated risks are liquidity risk, which is the risk that a Portfolio will not be able to sell the derivative in the open market in a timely manner, and counterparty credit risk, which is the risk that the counterparty will not fulfill its obligation to a Portfolio. Associated risks can be different for each type of derivative and are discussed by each derivative type in the following notes.
Counterparty Credit Risk and Credit Related Contingent Features. Certain derivative positions are subject to counterparty credit risk, which is the risk that the counterparty will not fulfill its obligation to a Portfolio. Each Portfolio's derivative counterparties are financial institutions who are subject to market conditions that may weaken their financial position. A Portfolio intends to enter into financial transactions with counterparties that they believe to be creditworthy at the time of the transaction. To reduce this risk, a Portfolio has entered into master netting arrangements, established within each Portfolio's International Swap and Derivatives Association, Inc. Master Agreements ("Master Agreements"). These agreements are with select counterparties and they govern transactions, including certain over-the-counter ("OTC") derivative and forward foreign currency contracts, entered into by a Portfolio and the counterparty. The Master Agreements maintain provisions for general obligations, representations, agreements, collateral, and events of default or termination. The occurrence of a specified event of termination may give a counterparty the right to terminate all of its contracts and affect settlement of all outstanding transactions under the applicable Master Agreement.
A Portfolio may also enter into collateral agreements with certain counterparties to further mitigate counterparty risk on OTC derivative and forward foreign currency contracts. Subject to established minimum levels, collateral is generally determined based on the net aggregate unrealized gain or loss on contracts with a certain counterparty. Collateral pledged to or from a Portfolio is held in a segregated account by a third-party agent and can be in the form of cash or debt securities issued by the U.S. government or related agencies.
As of December 31, 2011, the maximum amount of loss that Balanced, Intermediate Bond, and Science and Technology Opportunities would incur if the counterparties to its derivative transactions failed to perform would be
33
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2011 (CONTINUED)
NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
$1,935,420, $5,991,275 and $497,184, respectively, which represents the gross payments to be received by the Portfolios on open swaps, forward foreign currency contracts and purchased options were they to be unwound as of December 31, 2011. As of December 31, 2011, certain counterparties have posted $1,100,000 in cash collateral to Intermediate Bond to reduce the potential risk of loss.
Each Portfolio has credit related contingent features that if triggered would allow its derivative counterparties to close out and demand payment or additional collateral to cover their exposure from a Portfolio. Credit related contingent features are established between each Portfolio and their derivatives counterparties to reduce the risk that a Portfolio will not fulfill its payment obligations to its counterparties. These triggering features include, but are not limited to, a percentage decrease in a Portfolio's net assets and or a percentage decrease in a Portfolio's NAV, which could cause a Portfolio to accelerate payment of any net liability owed to the counterparty. The contingent features are established within each Portfolio's Master Agreements.
As of December 31, 2011, Balanced, Intermediate Bond, and Science and Technology Opportunities had a net liability position of $4,436,248, $13,898,518 and $230,279, respectively, on open swaps, forward foreign currency contract and written options with credit related contingent features. If a contingent feature would have been triggered as of December 31, 2011, the Portfolios could have been required to pay this amount in cash to its counterparties. As of December 31, 2011, Balanced and Intermediate Bond have posted $1,200,000 and $8,930,000, respectively, for open OTC derivative transactions with their respective counterparties.
E. Forward Foreign Currency Transactions and Futures Contracts. Certain Portfolios may enter into foreign currency exchange transactions to convert to and from different foreign currencies and to and from the U.S. dollar in connection with the planned purchases or sales of securities. When entering into a forward foreign currency contract, a Portfolio agrees to receive or deliver a fixed quantity of foreign currency for an agreed-upon price on an agreed upon future date. A Portfolio either enters into these transactions on a spot basis at the spot rate prevailing in the foreign currency exchange market or uses forward foreign currency contracts to purchase or sell foreign currencies. When the contract is fulfilled or closed, gains or losses are realized. Until then, the gain or loss is included in unrealized appreciation or depreciation. Risks may arise upon entering into forward contracts from the potential inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their forward contracts and from unanticipated movements in the value of foreign currencies relative to the U.S. dollar.
During the year ended December 31, 2011, the following Portfolios had average contract amounts on forward foreign currency contracts to buy and sell as disclosed below:
Buy | Sell | ||||||||||
Balanced | $ | 117,796,226 | $ | 106,595,666 | |||||||
Intermediate Bond | 3,115,170 | 235,339,403 | |||||||||
Science and Technology Opportunities | 7,159,686 | 20,034,366 |
Each Portfolio, with the exception of Money Market, may enter into futures contracts involving foreign currency, interest rates, securities and security indices. A futures contract is a commitment to buy or sell a specific amount of a financial instrument at a negotiated price on a stipulated future date. A Portfolio may buy and sell futures contracts. Futures contracts traded on a commodities or futures exchange will be valued at the final settlement price or official closing price on the principal exchange as reported by such principal exchange at its trading session ending at, or most recently prior to, the time when each Portfolio's assets are valued.
Upon entering into a futures contract, a Portfolio is required to deposit either cash or securities (initial margin) in an amount equal to a certain percentage of the contract value. Subsequent payments (variation margin) are made or received by a Portfolio each day. The variation margin payments are equal to the daily changes in the contract value and are recorded as unrealized gains and losses. Open futures contracts are reported on a table following each Portfolio's Summary Portfolio of Investments. Securities held in collateralized accounts to cover initial margin requirements on open futures contracts are footnoted in the Summary Portfolio of Investments. Cash collateral held by the broker to cover initial margin requirements on open futures contracts are noted in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. The net change in unrealized appreciation and depreciation
34
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2011 (CONTINUED)
NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
is reported in the Statements of Operations. Realized gains (losses) are reported in the Statements of Operations at the closing or expiration of futures contracts.
Futures contracts are exposed to the market risk factor of the underlying financial instrument. During the year ended December 31, 2011, Balanced and Intermediate Bond have purchased and sold futures contracts on various equity indices (Balanced only), bonds, and notes. Balanced purchased equity futures to "equitize" cash. Both Balanced and Intermediate Bond purchased and sold futures on bonds and notes as part of their duration management. Growth and Income entered into equity futures to "equitize" cash. Additional associated risks of entering into futures contracts include the possibility that there may be an illiquid market where a Portfolio is unable to liquidate the contract or enter into an offsetting position and, if used for hedging purposes, the risk that the price of the contract will correlate imperfectly with the prices of a Portfolio's securities. With futures, there is minimal counterparty credit risk to the Portfolios since futures are exchange traded and the exchange's clearinghouse, as counterparty to all exchange traded futures, guarantees the futures against default. During the year ended December 31, 2011, the following Portfolios had average notional values on futures contracts purchased and sold as disclosed below:
Purchased | Sold | ||||||||||
Balanced | $ | 93,599,955 | $ | 66,644,698 | |||||||
Intermediate Bond | 770,584,101 | 837,108,002 | |||||||||
Growth and Income | 7,106,980 | — |
F. Options Contracts. Certain Portolios may write call and put options on futures, swaps ("swaptions"), securities, commodities or foreign currencies it owns or in which it may invest. Writing put options tends to increase the Portfolios exposure to the underlying instrument. Writing call options tends to decrease the Portfolios exposure to the underlying instrument. When a Portfolio writes a call or put option, an amount equal to the premium received is recorded as a liability and subsequently marked to market to reflect the current value of the option written. These liabilities are reflected as written options outstanding on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Certain options may be written with premiums to be determined on a future date. Premiums received from writing options which expire are treated as realized gains. Premiums received from writing options which are exercised or closed are added to the proceeds or offset against amounts paid on the underlying futures, swap, security or currency transaction to determine the realized gain or loss. A Portfolio as a writer of an option has no control over whether the underlying instrument may be sold (call) or purchased (put) and as a result bears the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the instrument underlying the written option. There is the risk the Portfolios may not be able to enter into a closing transaction because of an illiquid market. The Portfolios may also purchase put and call options. Purchasing call options tends to increase the Portfolios' exposure to the underlying instrument. Purchasing put options tends to decrease the Portfolios exposure to the underlying instrument. The Portfolios pay a premium which is included on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as an investment and subsequently marked to market to reflect the current value of the option. Premiums paid for purchasing options which expire are treated as realized losses. Certain options may be purchased with premiums to be determined on a future date. The premiums for these options are based upon implied volatility parameters at specified terms. The risk associated with purchasing put and call options is limited to the premium paid. Premiums paid for purchasing options which are exercised or closed are added to the amounts paid or offset against the proceeds on the underlying investment transaction to determine the realized gain or loss.
During the year ended December 31, 2011, Balanced and Intermediate Bond have purchased and written foreign currency options to gain exposure to currencies and to generate income. Please refer to the Summary Portfolio of Investments for open purchased foreign currency options and the table following the Summary Portfolio of Investments for open written foreign currency options at December 31, 2011 for Balanced and Intermediate Bond.
During the year ended December 31, 2011, Balanced and Intermediate Bond have purchased and written interest rate swaptions to gain exposure to interest rates and to generate income. There were no open interest rate swaptions at December 31, 2011.
During the year ended December 31, 2011, Balanced and Intermediate Bond have purchased and written options on U.S. Treasury Bonds/Notes
35
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2011 (CONTINUED)
NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
and futures to gain exposure to interest rates and to generate income. There were no open interest rate swaptions at December 31, 2011. Please refer to the table following the Summary Portfolio of Investments for open written options on U.S. Treasury Bond's for Balanced at December 31, 2011.
Please refer to Note 10 for the volume of both purchased and written option activity during the year ended December 31, 2011.
G. Distributions to Shareholders. The Portfolios record distributions to their shareholders on the ex-dividend date. Balanced, Small Company and Science and Technology Opportunities declare and pay dividends annually. Growth and Income and Intermediate Bond declare and pay dividends semi-annually. Money Market declares dividends daily and pays dividends, if any, monthly. Each Portfolio distributes capital gains, if any, annually. The Portfolios may make distributions on a more frequent basis to comply with the distribution requirements of the Internal Revenue Code. The characteristics of income and gains to be distributed are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for investment companies.
H. Federal Income Taxes. It is the policy of the Portfolios to comply with the requirements of subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code that are applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all of their net investment income and any net realized capital gains to their shareholders. Therefore, a federal income tax or excise tax provision is not required. Management has considered the sustainability of the Portfolios' tax positions taken on federal income tax returns for all open tax years in making this determination. No capital gain distributions shall be made until the capital loss carryforwards have been fully utilized or expire.
I. Use of Estimates. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
J. Repurchase Agreements. Each Portfolio may invest in repurchase agreements only with government securities dealers recognized by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. Under such agreements, the seller of the security agrees to repurchase it at a mutually agreed upon time and price. The resale price is in excess of the purchase price and reflects an agreed upon interest rate for the period of time the agreement is outstanding. The period of the repurchase agreements is usually short, from overnight to one week, while the underlying securities generally have longer maturities. Each Portfolio will receive as collateral securities acceptable to it whose market value is equal to at least 100% of the carrying amount of the repurchase agreements, plus accrued interest, being invested by the Portfolio. The underlying collateral is valued daily on a mark-to-market basis to assure that the value, including accrued interest is at least equal to the repurchase price. There would be potential loss to the Portfolio in the event the Portfolio is delayed or prevented from exercising its right to dispose of the collateral, and it might incur disposition costs in liquidating the collateral.
K. Securities Lending. Each Portfolio (except Money Market) may temporarily loan up to 331/3% of its total assets to brokers, dealers or other financial institutions in exchange for a negotiated lender's fee. The borrower is required to fully collateralize the loans with cash or U.S. government securities. Generally, in the event of counterparty default, a Portfolio has the right to use collateral to offset losses incurred. There would be potential loss to a Portfolio in the event a Portfolio is delayed or prevented from exercising its right to dispose of the collateral. The Portfolio bears the risk of loss with respect to the investment of collateral with the following exception: Effective October 1, 2011, BNY provides the Portfolio indemnification from loss with respect to the investment of collateral provided that the cash collateral is invested solely in overnight repurchase agreements. Engaging in securities lending could have a leveraging effect, which may intensify the credit, market and other risks associated with investing in a Portfolio.
L. Restricted Securities. The Portfolios may invest in restricted securities, which include those sold under Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933 ("1933 Act") or securities offered pursuant to
36
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2011 (CONTINUED)
NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Section 4(2) of the 1933 Act, and/or are subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale and may not be publicly sold without registration under the 1933 Act. Restricted securities are fair valued using market quotations when readily available. In the absence of market quotations, the securities are valued based upon their fair value, as defined by the Act, determined under procedures approved by the Board.
M. When-Issued and Delayed-Delivery Transactions. Each Portfolio may purchase or sell securities on a when-issued or forward commitment basis. The price of the underlying securities and date when the securities will be delivered and paid for are fixed at the time the transaction is negotiated. The market value of such is identified in the Summary Portfolio of Investments. Losses may arise due to changes in the market value of the securities or from the inability of counterparties to meet the terms of the contract. In connection with such purchases, the Portfolios are required to hold liquid assets as collateral with the Portfolios' custodian sufficient to cover the purchase price.
N. Mortgage Dollar Roll Transactions. Each Portfolio, except Small Company, may engage in dollar roll transactions with respect to mortgage-backed securities issued by Government National Mortgage Association, Federal National Mortgage Association and Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corp. In a dollar roll transaction, a Portfolio sells a mortgage-backed security to a financial institution, such as a bank or broker/dealer, and simultaneously agrees to repurchase a substantially similar (i.e., same type, coupon, and maturity) security from the institution on a delayed delivery basis at an agreed upon price. The mortgage-backed securities that are repurchased will bear the same interest rate as those sold, but generally will be collateralized by different pools of mortgages with different prepayment histories. The Portfolios account for dollar roll transactions as purchases and sales.
O. Swap Agreements. Certain Portfolios may enter into swap agreements. A swap is an agreement between two parties pursuant to which each party agrees to make one or more payments to the other at specified future intervals based on the return of an asset (such as a stock, bond or currency) or non-asset reference (such as an interest rate or index). The swap agreement will specify the "notional" amount of the asset or non-asset reference to which the contract relates. Subsequent changes in fair value, if any, are calculated based upon changes in the performance of the asset or non-asset reference multiplied by the notional value of the contract. A Portfolio may enter into credit default, interest rate, total return and currency swaps to manage its exposure to credit, currency and interest rate risk. All outstanding swap agreements are reported following each Portfolio's Summary Portfolio of Investments.
Swaps are marked to market daily using quotations primarily from third party pricing services, counterparties or brokers. The value of the swap contract is recorded on each Portfolio's Statement of Assets or Liabilities. During the term of the swap, changes in the value of the swap, if any, are recorded as unrealized gains or losses on the Statement of Operations. Upfront payments paid or received by a Portfolio when entering into the agreements are reported on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities and as a component of the changes in unrealized gains or losses on the Statement of Operations. These upfront payments represent the amounts paid or received when initially entering into the swap agreement to compensate for differences between the stated terms of the swap agreement and the prevailing market conditions. The upfront payments are included as a component in the realized gains or losses on each Portfolio's Statement of Operations upon termination or maturity of the swap. A Portfolio also records net periodic payments paid or received on the swap contract as a realized gain or loss on the Statement of Operations.
Entering into swap agreements involves the risk that the maximum potential loss of an investment exceeds the current value of the investment as reported on each Portfolio's Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Other risks involve the possibility that the counterparty to the agreements may default on its obligation to perform, that there will be no liquid market for these investments and that unfavorable changes in the market will have a negative impact on the value of the index or securities underlying the respective swap agreement.
Credit Default Swap Contracts. A credit default swap is a bilateral agreement between counterparties in which the buyer of the protection agrees to make a stream of periodic payments to the seller of protection in exchange for the right to receive a specified return in the event of a default or other credit event for a
37
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2011 (CONTINUED)
NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
referenced entity, obligation or index. As a seller of protection on credit default swaps, a Portfolio will generally receive from the buyer a fixed payment stream based on the notional amount of the swap contract. This fixed payment stream will continue until the swap contract expires or a defined credit event occurs.
A Portfolio is subject to credit risk in the normal course of pursuing its investment objectives. As a seller of protection in a credit default swap, a Portfolio may execute these contracts to manage its exposure to the market or certain sectors of the market. Certain Portfolios may also enter into credit default swaps to speculate on changes in an issuer's credit quality, to take advantage of perceived spread advantages, or to offset an existing short equivalent (i.e. buying protection on an equivalent reference entity).
Certain Portfolios may sell credit default swaps which expose these Portfolios to the risk of loss from credit risk related events specified in the contract. Although contract specific, credit events are generally defined as bankruptcy, failure to pay, restructuring, obligation acceleration, obligation default or repudiation/moratorium. If a Portfolio is a seller of protection, and a credit event occurs, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement, a Portfolio will generally either (i) pay to the buyer an amount equal to the notional amount of the swap and take delivery of the referenced obligation, other deliverable obligations, or underlying securities comprising a referenced index or (ii) pay a net settlement amount in the form of cash or securities equal to the notional amount of the swap less the recovery value of the referenced obligation or underlying securities comprising a referenced index. If a Portfolio is a buyer of protection and a credit event occurs, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement, a Portfolio will either (i) receive from the seller of protection an amount equal to the notional amount of the swap and deliver the referenced obligation, other deliverable obligations or underlying securities comprising the referenced index or (ii) receive a net settlement amount in the form of cash or securities equal to the notional amount of the swap less the recovery value of the referenced obligation or underlying securities comprising the referenced index. Recovery values are assumed by market makers considering either industry standard recovery rates or entity specific factors and considerations until a credit event occurs. If a credit event has occurred, the recovery value is determined by a facilitated auction whereby a minimum number of allowable broker bids, together with a specified valuation method, are used to calculate the settlement value.
Implied credit spreads, represented in absolute terms, utilized in determining the fair value of credit default swap agreements on corporate issues or sovereign issues are disclosed in each Portfolio's Summary Portfolio of Investment and serve as an indicator of the current status of the payment/performance risk and represent the likelihood or risk of default for the credit derivative. The implied credit spread of a particular referenced entity reflects the cost of buying/selling protection and may include upfront payments required to be made to enter into the agreement. For credit default swaps on asset-backed securities or credit indices, the quoted market prices and resulting fair values serve as the indicator of the current status of the payment/performance risk. Wider credit spreads and increasing fair values, in absolute terms when compared to the notional amount of the swap, represent a deterioration of the referenced entity's credit soundness and a greater likelihood or risk of default or other credit event occurring as defined under the terms of the agreement.
The maximum amount of future payments (undiscounted) that a Portfolio as seller of protection could be required to make under a credit default swap agreement would be an amount equal to the notional amount of the agreement. Notional amounts of all credit default swap agreements outstanding as of December 31, 2011, for which a Portfolio is seller of protection are disclosed in each Portfolio's Summary Portfolio of Investments. These potential amounts would be partially offset by any recovery values of the respective referenced obligations, upfront payments received upon entering into the agreements, or net amounts received from the settlement of buy protection credit default swap agreements entered into by a Portfolio for the same referenced entity or entities.
For the year ended December 31, 2011, both Balanced and Intermediate Bond have purchased credit protection through credit default swaps to decrease exposure to the credit risk of individual securities and to hedge against anticipated potential credit events.
38
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2011 (CONTINUED)
NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
For the year ended December 31, 2011, both Balanced and Intermediate Bond have sold credit protection through credit default swaps to gain exposure to the credit risk of individual securities that are either unavailable or considered to be less attractive in the bond market.
For the year ended December 31, 2011, Balanced and Intermediate Bond had average notional amounts of $1,383,000 and $18,921,000 on credit default swaps to buy protection and average notional amounts of $1,994,000 and $40,929,000 on credit default swaps to sell protection, respectively.
Interest Rate Swap Contracts. An interest rate swap involves the agreement between counterparties to exchange periodic payments based on interest rates. One payment will be based on a floating rate of a specified interest rate while the other will be a fixed rate. Risks involve the future fluctuations of interest rates in which a Portfolio may make payments that are greater than what a Portfolio received from the counterparty. Other risks include credit, liquidity and market risk.
For the year ended December 31, 2011, Balanced and Intermediate Bond have entered into interest rate swaps in which they pay a floating interest rate and receive a fixed interest rate ("Long interest rate swap") in order to increase exposure to interest rate risk. Average notional amounts on long interest rate swaps were $52,410,188 and $165,620,710, respectively.
For the year ended December 31, 2011, Balanced and Intermediate Bond have entered into interest rate swaps in which it pays a fixed interest rate and receives a floating interest rate ("Short interest rate swap") in order to decrease exposure to interest rate risk. Average notional amounts on short interest rate swaps were $75,379,062 and $267,406,080, respectively.
Balanced and Intermediate Bond entered into interest rate swaps to adjust interest rate and yield curve exposures and to substitute for physical fixed-income securities. Please refer to the tables following the Summary Portfolio of Investments for open interest rate swaps at December 31, 2011.
Cross-Currency Swap Agreements. Cross-currency swaps are interest rate swaps in which interest cash flows are exchanged between two parties based on the notional amounts of two different currencies. The notional amounts are typically determined based on the spot exchange rates at the inception of the trade. Cross-currency swaps also involve the exchange of the notional amounts at the start of the contract at the current spot rate with an agreement to re-exchange such amounts at a later date at either the same exchange rate, a specified rate or the then current spot rate. The entire principal value of a cross-currency swap is subject to the risk that the counterparty to the swap will default on its contractual delivery obligations.
For the year ended December 31, 2011, Balanced had an average notional amount of $1,209,461 and $1,206,334 on currency bought and sold, respectively, on cross-currency swaps.
For the year ended December 31, 2011, Balanced has entered into cross-currency swaps to gain or mitigate exposure to foreign currency risk. There were no open cross-currency swaps at December 31, 2011.
P. Indemnifications. In the normal course of business, the Registrants may enter into contracts that provide certain indemnifications. The Registrants' maximum exposure under these arrangements is dependent on future claims that may be made against the Portfolios and, therefore, cannot be estimated; however, based on experience, management considers the risk of loss from such claims remote.

NOTE 4 — INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT AND ADMINISTRATIVE FEES
The Portfolios entered into investment management agreements ("Investment Management Agreements") with the Investment Adviser. The Investment Management Agreements compensate the Investment Adviser with a fee, computed daily and payable monthly, based on the average daily net assets of each Portfolio, at the following annual rates:
Balanced | 0.500 | % | |||||
Science and Technology Opportunities | 0.950 | % | |||||
Growth and Income | 0.500% on first $10 billion; 0.450% on next $5 billion; and 0.425% over $15 billion | ||||||
Intermediate Bond | 0.400 | % | |||||
Money Market | 0.250 | % | |||||
Small Company | 0.750 | % |
The Investment Adviser entered into sub-advisory agreements with ING IM. ING IM acts as sub-adviser to all Portfolios except for Science and Technology Opportunities. Subject to such policies as the Board or the Investment Adviser may determine, ING IM manages the Portfolios' assets in accordance with the Portfolios' investment objectives, policies, and limitations.
BlackRock Advisors, LLC ("BlackRock"), serves as Sub-Adviser to Science and Technology Opportunities pursuant to a Sub-Advisory Agreement, effective February 2, 2007, between the Investment Adviser and BlackRock.
Pursuant to administration agreements, IFS acts as administrator and provides certain administrative and shareholder services necessary for Portfolio operations and is responsible for the supervision of other service providers.
IFS is entitled to receive from each Portfolio a fee at an annual rate of 0.055% on the first $5 billion of daily net assets and 0.03% thereafter.
In placing equity security transactions, each sub-adviser is required to use its best efforts to choose a broker capable of providing brokerage services necessary to obtain the best execution for each transaction. Subject to this requirement, each sub-adviser may allocate equity security transactions through certain designated broker-dealers. Some of these broker-dealers participate in commission recapture programs that have been established for the benefit of the Portfolios. Under these programs, the participating broker-dealers will return to a Portfolio a portion of the brokerage commissions (in the form of a credit to a Portfolio) paid to the broke-dealers to pay certain expenses of a Portfolio. These commission recapture payments benefit the Portfolios and not the sub-adviser. Any amount credited to a Portfolio is recognized as brokerage commission recapture in the Statements of Operations.
NOTE 5 — DISTRIBUTION AND SERVICE FEES
ADV Class and Class S2 shares of the respective Portfolios are subject to a Shareholder Service and Distribution Plan (the "Plan"). Under the Plan, the Distributor is paid an annual shareholder service fee at the rate of 0.25% and an annual distribution fee at the rate of 0.25% of the average daily net assets attributable to its ADV Class and Class S2 shares. The Distributor has contractually agreed to waive a portion of its fee equal to 0.10% of the average daily net assets attributable to the distribution fee paid by Class S2 of the Portfolios, so that the actual fee paid by a Portfolio is an annual rate of 0.15%. The expense waiver will continue through at least May 1, 2012. For the year ended December 31, 2011, the Distributor for Growth and Income, Science and Technology Opportunities, Intermediate Bond, and Small Company waived $170, $212, $175 and $188, respectively. Additionally, effective January 22, 2011, the Distributor has contractually agreed to waive a portion of its fee equal to 0.05% of the average daily net assets attributable to the distribution fee paid by ADV Class of Growth and Income, so that the actual fee paid by the Portfolio is an annual rate of 0.20%. The expense waiver will continue through at least May 1, 2012.
Class S shares of the respective Portfolios have adopted either a Distribution Plan or a Shareholder Service and Distribution Plan pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act (collectively, the "12b-1 Plans"), whereby the Distributor is compensated by each Portfolio for expenses incurred for Shareholder Servicing and/or the distribution of each Portfolio's shares. Pursuant to the 12b-1 Plans, the Distributor is entitled to a payment each month to compensate for expenses incurred in the distribution and promotion of each Portfolio's shares, including expenses incurred in printing prospectuses and reports used for sales purposes, expenses incurred in preparing and printing sales literature and other such distribution related expenses, including any distribution or shareholder servicing fees paid to securities dealers who have executed a distribution agreement with the Distributor. Under the 12b-1 Plans, Class S shares of the Portfolios pay the Distributor a fee calculated at an annual rate of 0.25% of average daily net assets. For Money Market, the Distributor agreed to waive

IID and ING Investments have contractually agreed to waive a portion of their distribution and/or shareholder servicing fees and management fees, as applicable, and to reimburse certain expenses to the extent necessary to assist Money Market in maintaining a yield of not less than zero. There is no guarantee that Money Market will maintain such a yield. Management fees waived or expenses reimbursed are subject to possible recoupment by ING Investments, as applicable, within three years subject to certain restrictions. For the year ended December 31, 2011, IID waived $437 of Class S specific distribution fees and ING Investments waived $918,505 of management fees for Money Market to maintain a yield of not less than zero. This expense waiver or reimbursement may be discontinued at any time. Please note that these waivers or reimbursements are in addition to existing contractual expense limitations, if any.

The Registrants have adopted a Deferred Compensation Plan (the "Plan"), which allows eligible independent directors as described in the Plan to defer the receipt of all or a portion of the directors' fees payable. Amounts deferred are treated as though invested in various "notional" funds advised by ING Investments until distribution in accordance with the Plan.
At December 31, 2011, the following ING Portfolios or indirect, wholly owned subsidiaries of ING Groep owned more than 5% of the following Portfolios:

Control is defined by the 1940 Act as the beneficial ownership, either directly or through one or more controlled companies, of more than 25% of the voting securities of a company. The 1940 Act defines affiliates as companies that are under common control. Therefore, because the Portfolios have a common owner that owns over 25% of the outstanding securities of the Portfolios, they may be deemed to be affiliates of each other. Investment activities of these shareholders could have a material impact on the Portfolios.
NOTE 7 — OTHER ACCRUED EXPENSES AND LIABILITIES
At December 31, 2011, the Portfolios did not have any payables included in Other Accrued Expenses and Liabilities on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities that exceeded 5% of total liabilities.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2011 (CONTINUED)
NOTE 8 — EXPENSE LIMITATION AGREEMENTS (continued)
The Investment Adviser may at a later date recoup from a Portfolio management fees waived and other expenses assumed by the Investment Adviser during the previous 36 months, but only if, after such recoupment, the Portfolio's expense ratio does not exceed the percentage described above. Waived and reimbursed fees net of any recoupment by the Investment Adviser of such waived and reimbursed fees are reflected on the accompanying Statements of Operations. Amounts payable by the Investment Manager are reflected on the accompanying Statements of Assets and Liabilities for each Portfolio.
As of December 31, 2011, the amount of waived and reimbursed fees that are subject to recoupment by the Investment Adviser, and the related expiration dates are as follows:
December 31, | |||||||||||||||||||

Science and Technology Opportunities | $ | 48,166 | $ | — | $ | 17,390 | $ | 65,556 |
The Expense Limitation Agreements are contractual and shall renew automatically for one-year terms unless ING Investments provides written notice of the termination of an Expense Limitation Agreement within 90 days of the end of the then current term.
NOTE 9 — LINE OF CREDIT
The Portfolios, in addition to certain other funds managed by the Investment Adviser, have entered into an unsecured committed revolving line of credit agreement (the "Credit Agreement") with The Bank of New York Mellon for an aggregate amount of $100,000,000. The proceeds may be used to: (1) temporarily finance the purchase or sale of securities; or (2) finance the redemption of shares of an investor in the funds. Prior to December 14, 2011, the funds to which the line of credit is available paid a commitment fee equal to 0.10% per annum on the daily unused portion of the committed line amount. Effective December 14, 2011, the funds to which the line of credit is available pay a commitment fee equal to 0.08% per annum on the daily unused portion of the committed line amount.
Generally, borrowings under the Credit Agreement accrue interest at the federal funds rate plus a specified margin.

NOTE 12 — SECURITIES LENDING
Under an agreement with The Bank of New York Mellon ("BNY"), the Portfolios can lend their securities to approved brokers, dealers and other financial institutions. Loans are collateralized by cash and U.S. government securities. The collateral is equal to at least 105% of the market value of non-U.S. securities loaned and 102% of the market value of U.S. securities loaned. The market value of the loaned securities is determined at the close of business of the Portfolios at their last sale price or official closing price on the principal exchange or system on which they are traded and any additional collateral is delivered to the Portfolios on the next business day. The cash collateral received is invested in approved investments as defined in the Securities Lending Agreement with BNY (the "Agreement"). The Funds bear the risk of loss with respect to the investment of collateral with the following exception: Effective October 1, 2011, BNY provides the Portfolios indemnification from loss with respect to the investment of collateral provided that the cash collateral is invested solely in overnight repurchase agreements.
Currently, the cash collateral is invested in overnight repurchase agreements that are collateralized at 102% with securities issued or fully guaranteed by the United States Treasury; United States government or any agency, instrumentality or authority of the United States government. The securities purchased with cash collateral received are reflected in the Summary Portfolio of Investments under Securities Lending Collateral.
Prior to October 1, 2011, the cash collateral was invested in the BNY Mellon Overnight Government Fund (formerly, The BNY Institutional Cash Reserves Fund — Series A) and the BNY Institutional Cash
45
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2011 (CONTINUED)
NOTE 12 — SECURITIES LENDING (continued)
Reserves Fund — Series B ("BICR — Series B"), each a series within the BNY Institutional Cash Reserves Trust (collectively, the "BICR Fund"). BNY serves as investment manager, custodian and operational trustee of the BICR Fund. From the beginning of the period covered by this report through October 16, 2011, BICR-Series B held certain defaulted securities issued by Lehman Brothers Holdings, Inc. (the "Lehman Securities"). The Lehman Securities had market values significantly below amortized cost. On May 22, 2009, the Portfolios agreed to the terms of a capital support agreement (the "Capital Support Agreement") extended by The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation ("BNYC"), an affiliated company of BNY, for the Lehman Securities held by BICR- Series B. Under the terms of the Capital Support Agreement, BNYC agreed to support the value of the Lehman Securities up to 80% of the par value (the remaining 20% of the par value represents an realized loss to the Portfolios) and subject, in part, to the Portfolios' continued participation in the BNY securities lending program through September 15, 2011. As of September 15, 2011, the Portfolios had complied with the requirements under the Capital Support Agreement and therefore the Portfolios could exercise their right to sell the Lehman Securities to BNYC at a price equal to 80% of par value. The sale of the Lehman Securities was completed on October 17, 2011.
Generally, in the event of counterparty default, the Portfolios have the right to use the collateral to offset losses incurred. The Agreement contains certain guarantees by BNY in the event of counterparty default and/or a borrower's failure to return a loaned security; however, there would be a potential loss to the Portfolios in the event the Portfolios are delayed or prevented from exercising their right to dispose of the collateral. Engaging in securities lending could have a leveraging effect, which may intensify the credit, market and other risks associated with investing in a Portfolio. At December 31, 2011, the following Portfolios had securities on loan with the following market values:
Portfolio | Value of Securities Loaned | Cash Collateral Received | |||||||||
Balanced | $ | 5,887,721 | $ | 6,079,145 | |||||||

NOTE 13 — CONCENTRATION OF INVESTMENT RISK
All mutual funds involve risk — some more than others — and there is always the chance that you could lose money or not earn as much as you hope. A Portfolio's risk profile is largely a factor of the principal securities in which it invests and investment techniques that it uses. For more information regarding the types of securities and investment techniques that may be used by each Portfolio and their corresponding risks, see the Portfolios' most recent Prospectus and/or the Statement of Additional Information.
Concentration (Science and Technology Opportunities). The Portfolio concentrates (for purposes of the 1940 Act) its assets in securities related to a particular industry, which means that at least 25% of its assets will be invested in that particular industry at all times. As a result, the Portfolio may be subject to greater market fluctuation than a portfolio which has securities representing a broader range of investment alternatives.
Foreign Securities (All Portfolios). Investments in foreign securities may entail risks not present in domestic investments. Since securities in which the Portfolios may invest are denominated in foreign currencies, changes in the relationship of these foreign currencies to the U.S. dollar can significantly affect the value of the investments and earnings of the Portfolios. Foreign investments may also subject the Portfolios to foreign government exchange restrictions, expropriation, taxation or other political, social or economic developments, as well as changes vis-a-vis the U.S. dollar from movements in currency, and changes in security value and interest rate, all of which could affect the market and/or credit risk of the Portfolios' investments.
Emerging Markets Investments (Intermediate Bond and Science and Technology Opportunities). Because of less developed markets and economies and, in some countries, less mature governments and governmental institutions, the risks of investing in foreign securities can be intensified in the case of investments in issuers domiciled or doing substantial business in emerging market countries.
NOTE 14 — FEDERAL INCOME TAXES
The amount of distributions from net investment income and net realized capital gains are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for investment companies. These book/tax differences may be either temporary
46
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2011 (CONTINUED)
NOTE 14 — FEDERAL INCOME TAXES (continued)
or permanent. Permanent differences are reclassified within the capital accounts based on their federal tax-basis treatment; temporary differences are not reclassified. Key differences include the treatment of short-term capital gains, foreign currency transactions, income from passive foreign investment companies (PFICs), and wash sale deferrals. Distributions in excess of net investment income and/or net realized capital gains for tax purposes are reported as return of capital.
The following permanent tax differences have been reclassified as of December 31, 2011:

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2011 (CONTINUED)
NOTE 14 — FEDERAL INCOME TAXES (continued)
The Portfolios' major tax jurisdictions are federal, Arizona, and Massachusetts. The earliest tax year that remains subject to examination by these jurisdictions is 2007.
As of December 31, 2011, no provisions for income tax would be required in the Portfolios' financial statements as a result of tax positions taken on federal and state income tax returns for open tax years. The Portfolios' federal and state income and federal excise tax returns for tax years for which the applicable statutes of limitations have not expired are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and state department of revenue.
The Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010 (the "Act") was enacted on December 22, 2010. The Act makes changes to several tax rules impacting the Portfolios. In general, the provisions of the Act are effective for the Portfolios' tax year ended December 31, 2011. Although the Act provides several benefits, including the unlimited carryforward of future capital losses, there may be a greater likelihood that all or a portion of the Portfolios' pre-enactment capital loss carryforwards may expire without being utilized due to the fact that post-enactment capital losses are required to be utilized before pre-enactment capital loss carryforwards.
NOTE 15 — REORGANIZATIONS
On December 2, 2011, Growth and Income ("Acquiring Portfolio") acquired all of the net assets of ING Core Growth and Income Portfolio (formerly, ING Janus Contrarian Portfolio) ("Acquired Portfolio"), an open-end investment company in a tax-free reorganization in exchange for shares of the Acquiring Portfolio, pursuant to a plan of reorganization approved by the Acquired Portfolio's shareholders on November 4, 2011. The primary purposes of the transaction were to combine comparable investment objectives, policies, restrictions, management, and portfolio holdings of the Acquiring and Acquired Funds. For financial reporting purposes, assets received and shares issued by the Acquiring Portfolio were recorded at fair value; however, the cost basis of the investments received from the Acquired Portfolio was carried forward to align ongoing reporting of the Acquiring Portfolio's realized and unrealized gains and losses with amounts distributable to shareholders for tax purposes.
Assuming the acquisition had been completed on January 1, 2011, the beginning of the annual reporting period of the Acquiring Portfolio, the Acquiring Portfolio's pro forma results of operations for the period ended December 31, 2011, are as follows:
Net investment income | $ | 52,623,883 | |||||
Net realized and unrealized gain on investments | $ | (182,344,641 | ) | ||||
Net increase in net assets resulting from operations | $ | (129,720,758 | ) |
Because the combined investment Portfolios have been managed as a single integrated Portfolio since the acquisition was completed, it is not practicable to separate the amounts of revenue and earnings of the Acquired Portfolio that have been included in the Acquiring Portfolio's statement of operations since December 2, 2011. Net assets and unrealized appreciation as of the reorganization date were as follows:
Acquiring Portfolio | Acquired Portfolio | Total Net Assets of Acquired Portfolio (000s) | Total Net Assets of Acquiring Portfolio (000s) | Acquired Capital Loss Carryforwards (000s) | Acquired Portfolio Unrealized Appreciation (000s) | Conversion Ratio | |||||||||||||||||||||
Growth and Income | ING Core Growth and Income Portfolio (Formerly, ING Janus Contrarian Portfolio) | $420,777 | $3,459,539 | $ | 285,576 | $(18,039) | 0.5089 |
The net assets of Growth and Income after the acquisition were $3,880,316,178.

On January 21, 2011, Growth and Income ("Acquiring Portfolio") acquired all of the net assets of ING American Funds Growth-Income Portfolio ("Acquired Portfolio"), an open-end investment company in a tax-free reorganization in exchange for shares of the Acquiring Portfolio, pursuant to a plan of reorganization approved by the Acquired Portfolio's shareholders on January 11, 2011. The primary purposes of the transaction were to combine comparable investment objectives, policies, restrictions, management, and portfolio holdings of the Acquiring and Acquired Funds. For financial reporting purposes, assets received and shares issued by the Acquiring Portfolio were recorded at fair value; however, the cost basis of the investments received from the Acquired Portfolio was carried forward to align ongoing reporting of the Acquiring Portfolio's realized and unrealized gains and losses with amounts distributable to shareholders for tax purposes.
Assuming the acquisition had been completed on January 1, 2011, the beginning of the annual reporting period of the Acquiring Portfolio, the Acquiring Portfolio's pro forma results of operations for the period ended December 31, 2011, are as follows:
Net investment income | $ | 47,049,002 | |||||
Net realized and unrealized gain on investments | $ | (124,724,034 | ) | ||||
Net increase in net assets resulting from operations | $ | (77,675,032 | ) |
Because the combined investment Portfolios have been managed as a single integrated Portfolio since the acquisition was completed, it is not practicable to separate the amounts of revenue and earnings of the Acquired Portfolio that have been included in the Acquiring Portfolio's statement of operations since January 21, 2011. Net assets and unrealized appreciation as of the reorganization date were as follows:

NOTE 16 — LITIGATION
On December 12, 2003, Aeltus Investment Management, Inc. (now known as ING Investment Management Co. LLC) received a copy of a complaint (the "Complaint") filed in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York (the "Bankruptcy Court") in the matter of Enron Corp. v. Mass Mutual Life Insurance Co., et al. Among other defendants named in the Complaint are defendants ING VP Balanced Portfolio, Inc. and ING VP Bond Portfolio (now known as the ING Balanced Portfolio and the ING Intermediate Bond Portfolio, respectively) (the "Subject Portfolios"). The Complaint alleges that Enron Corp. ("Enron") transferred to the defendants, including the Subject Portfolios, over $1 billion in the aggregate for the purpose of prepaying certain commercial paper issued by Enron (the "Notes") and held by the defendants prior to the filing by Enron for bankruptcy protection under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the Bankruptcy Code (the "Bankruptcy Code").
The Complaint seeks to recover these transfers under the alternative but interrelated bankruptcy theories of preferential transfer and fraudulent conveyance. Although the Complaint does not specify the amount of each transfer in dispute, it appears that the sale of

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2011 (CONTINUED)
NOTE 16 — LITIGATION (continued)
ING VP Balanced Portfolio, Inc. of $23,181,757 of the Notes on or about October 29, 2001, and the sale by ING VP Bond Portfolio of $24,963,125 of the Notes on or about October 29, 2001 are in dispute. The Complaint seeks to require the Subject Portfolios to repay to Enron the full amount of these transfers, in which event the Subject Portfolios would be granted unsecured claims against the Enron bankruptcy estate in the amounts of the repayments. If Enron proves up the elements of preferential transfer and/or fraudulent conveyance, these are strict liability theories of recovery.
On April 29, 2008, IIM and the Subject Portfolios joined a plenary motion for summary judgment filed by Goldman Sachs. In addition, a separate brief was filed on behalf of IIM asserting the defenses unique to the investment advisor defendants; that they were merely conduits. On June 29, 2009, the Bankruptcy Court ruled on the motion for summary judgment and held that the pre-payments made were not protected from avoidance by section 546(e) of the Bankruptcy Code and denied the summary judgment to the Subject Portfolios; however, the Bankruptcy Court granted the summary judgment to dismiss IIM.
The Subject Portfolios filed an interlocutory appeal of the Bankruptcy Court's denial of summary judgment with the United States District Court of Southern New York ("the District Court"). On November 19, 2009, (prior to the Bankruptcy Court ruling on Enron's motion for summary judgment filed in September 2009) the District Court ruled in favor of the Subject Portfolios and the one other remaining defendant, agreeing with the Subject Portfolios' reliance on section 546(e) and reversing the Bankruptcy Court. The judge directed the Bankruptcy Court to enter summary judgment in favor of the Subject Portfolios and the remaining defendant, essentially dismissing the preference claim against them.
Enron appealed the District Court's ruling to the Second Circuit Court of Appeals (the "Court of Appeals) on April 16, 2010. Oral argument was held in November, 2010 and the Court of Appeals issued its opinion on June 28, 2011 affirming the District Court's grant of summary judgment in favor of the Subject Portfolios. On July 12, 2011, Enron requested an "en banc" hearing before the Court of Appeals. On December 2, 2011, the Court of Appeals denied the request. Enron did not timely request cert from the Supreme Court and, on January 13, 2012, reported to the bankruptcy court that it would not pursue the case any further. The litigation is now closed.
NOTE 17 — OTHER ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In May 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2011-04 "Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements". ASU No. 2011-04 amends FASB ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, to establish common requirements for measuring fair value and for disclosing information about fair value measurements in accordance with GAAP and the International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRSs"). The ASU is effective prospectively for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. As of December 31, 2011, management of the Portfolios is currently assessing the potential impact to financial statement disclosure that may result from adopting this ASU.
NOTE 18 — SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
The Portfolios have evaluated events occurring after the Statements of Assets and Liabilities date (subsequent events) to determine whether any subsequent events necessitated adjustment to or disclosure in the financial statements. No such subsequent events were identified.

As of December 31, 2011, total change in unrealized gain (loss) on Level 3 securities still held at period end and included in the change in net assets was $(249,771).
^ See Note 2, "Significant Accounting Policies" in the Notes to Financial Statements for additional information.
+ Other Financial Instruments are derivatives not reflected in the Portfolio of Investments and may include open forward foreign currency contracts, equity forwards, futures, swaps, and written options. Forward foreign currency contracts, equity forwards and futures are valued at the unrealized gain (loss) on the instrument. Swaps and written options are valued at the fair value of the instrument.
# The earlier close of the foreign markets gives rise to the possibility that significant events, including broad market moves, may have occurred in the interim and may materially affect the value of those securities. To account for this, the Portfolio may frequently value many of its foreign equity securities using fair value prices based on third party vendor modeling tools to the extent available. Accordingly, a significant portion of the Portfolio's investments are categorized as Level 2 investments.
There were no significant transfers between Level 1 and 2 during the year ended December 31, 2011.
Transfers in or out of Level 3 represent either the beginning value (for transfers in), or the ending value (for transfers out) of any security or derivative instrument where a change in the pricing level occurred from the beginning to the end of the period. Transfers are recognized at the end of the reporting period.

(1) If a Portfolio is a buyer of protection and a credit event occurs, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement, a Portfolio will either 1.) receive from the seller of protection an amount equal to the notional amount of the swap and deliver the referenced obligation, other deliverable obligations or underlying securities comprising the referenced index or 2.) receive a net settlement amount in the form of cash or securities equal to the notional amount of the swap less the recovery value of the referenced obligation or underlying securities comprising the referenced index.
(2) The maximum amount of future payments (undiscounted) that a Portfolio as seller of protection could be required to make or receive as a buyer of credit protection under a credit default swap agreement would be an amount equal to the notional amount of the agreement.
(3) The fair values for credit default swap agreements serve as an indicator of the current status of the payment/performance risk and represent the likelihood or risk of default for the credit derivative. Increasing fair values, in absolute terms, when compared to the notional amount of the agreement, represent a deterioration of the referenced obligation's credit soundness and a greater likelihood or risk of default or other credit event occurring.

(4) If the Portfolio is a seller of protection, and a credit event occurs, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement, the Portfolio will generally either 1.) Pay to the buyer an amount equal to the notional amount of the swap and take delivery of the referenced obligation, other deliverable obligations, or underlying securities comprising a referenced index or 2.) Pay a net settlement amount in the form of cash or securities equal to the notional amount of the swap less the recovery value of the referenced obligation or underlying securities comprising a referenced index.
(5) Implied credit spreads, represented in absolute terms, utilized in determining the fair value of credit default swap agreements on corporate issues or sovereign issues are disclosed in each Portfolio's Portfolio of Investment and serve as an indicator of the current status of the payment/performance risk and represent the likelihood or risk of default for the credit derivative. The implied credit spread of a particular referenced entity reflects the cost of buying/selling protection and may include upfront payments required to be made to enter into the agreement. For credit default swaps on asset-backed securities or credit indices, the quoted market prices and resulting market values serve as the indicator of the current status of the payment/performance risk. Wider credit spreads and increasing fair values, in absolute terms when compared to the notional amount of the swap, represent a deterioration of the referenced entity's credit soundness and a greater likelihood or risk of default or other credit event occurring as defined under the terms of the agreement.

^ See Note 2, "Significant Accounting Policies" in the Notes to Financial Statements for additional information.
+ Other Financial Instruments are derivatives not reflected in the Portfolio of Investments and may include open forward foreign currency contracts, equity forwards, futures, swaps, and written options. Forward foreign currency contracts, equity forwards and futures are valued at the unrealized gain (loss) on the instrument. Swaps and written options are valued at the fair value of the instrument.
# The earlier close of the foreign markets gives rise to the possibility that significant events, including broad market moves, may have occurred in the interim and may materially affect the value of those securities. To account for this, the Portfolio may frequently value many of its foreign equity securities using fair value prices based on third party vendor modeling tools to the extent available. Accordingly, a significant portion of the Portfolio's investments are categorized as Level 2 investments.
There were no significant transfers between Level 1 and 2 during the year ended December 31, 2011.

(1) If a Portfolio is a buyer of protection and a credit event occurs, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement, a Portfolio will either 1.) receive from the seller of protection an amount equal to the notional amount of the swap and deliver the referenced obligation, other deliverable obligations or underlying securities comprising the referenced index or 2.) receive a net settlement amount in the form of cash or securities equal to the notional amount of the swap less the recovery value of the referenced obligation or underlying securities comprising the referenced index.
(2) The maximum amount of future payments (undiscounted) that a Portfolio as seller of protection could be required to make or receive as a buyer of credit protection under a credit default swap agreement would be an amount equal to the notional amount of the agreement.
(3) The fair values for credit default swap agreements serve as an indicator of the current status of the payment/performance risk and represent the likelihood or risk of default for the credit derivative. Increasing fair values, in absolute terms, when compared to the notional amount of the agreement, represent a deterioration of the referenced obligation's credit soundness and a greater likelihood or risk of default or other credit event occurring.
(4) If the Portfolio is a seller of protection, and a credit event occurs, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement, the Portfolio will generally either 1.) Pay to the buyer an amount equal to the notional amount of the swap and take delivery of the referenced obligation, other deliverable obligations, or underlying securities comprising a referenced index or 2.) Pay a net settlement amount in the form of cash or securities equal to the notional amount of the swap less the recovery value of the referenced obligation or underlying securities comprising a referenced index.
(5) Implied credit spreads, represented in absolute terms, utilized in determining the fair value of credit default swap agreements on corporate issues or sovereign issues are disclosed in each Portfolio's Portfolio of Investment and serve as an indicator of the current status of the payment/performance risk and represent the likelihood or risk of default for the credit derivative. The implied credit spread of a particular referenced entity reflects the cost of buying/selling protection and may include upfront payments required to be made to enter into the agreement. For credit default swaps on asset-backed securities or credit indices, the quoted market prices and resulting market values serve as the indicator of the current status of the payment/performance risk. Wider credit spreads and increasing fair values, in absolute terms when compared to the notional amount of the swap, represent a deterioration of the referenced entity's credit soundness and a greater likelihood or risk of default or other credit event occurring as defined under the terms of the agreement.

ADVISORY CONTRACT APPROVAL DISCUSSION (UNAUDITED)
BOARD CONSIDERATION AND APPROVAL OF INVESTMENT ADVISORY AND SUB-ADVISORY AGREEMENTS
The Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), provides, in substance, that each investment advisory agreement and sub-advisory agreement for a mutual fund will terminate automatically after the initial term of the agreement (which term may not exceed two years), unless continuation of the agreement is approved annually by the Board of Trustees or Directors, as the case may be (the "Board") of the fund, including a majority of the Trustees/Directors who have no direct or indirect interest in the agreement and who are not "interested persons" of the fund (the "Independent Trustees"). Consistent with this requirement of the 1940 Act, the Board of ING Balanced Portfolio, Inc., ING Strategic Allocation Portfolios, Inc., ING Intermediate Bond Portfolio, ING Money Market Portfolio, ING Variable Funds, ING Variable Portfolios, Inc. and ING Series Fund, Inc., with respect to each portfolio series thereof (each, a "Fund" or a "Portfolio" and, collectively, the "Funds" or the "Portfolios") has established a process for considering on an annual basis approval of the continuation of the investment management agreement for each Fund (the "Advisory Agreement") with ING Investments, LLC (the "Adviser") and the sub-advisory agreement for each Fund (collectively, the "Sub-Advisory Agreements") with the sub-adviser of each Fund (the "Sub-Advisers"). Set forth below is a description of the process followed by the Board in considering approval of the continuation of each Advisory and Sub-Advisory Agreement (collectively, the "Agreements"), together with an explanation of many of the factors considered and related conclusions reached by the Board in voting to approve the continuation of each Agreement for an additional one-year period commencing January 1, 2012, followed by specific considerations with respect to each Fund covered by this report (each, a "Covered Fund").
Overview of the Review Process
At a meeting of the Board held on December 15, 2011, the Board, including all of the Independent Trustees, voted to approve continuation of each of the existing Agreements for the Funds. Prior to voting such approvals, the Board received the affirmative recommendation of the Contracts Committee of the Board, which is a Committee of the Board comprised of all of the Independent Trustees and exclusively of the Independent Trustees. The Contracts Committee recommended approval of the Agreements after completing an extensive review of information requested by the Committee from the Adviser and each Sub-Adviser, including the following: (i) comparative performance data for each Fund for various time periods; (ii) comparative data regarding management fees, including data regarding the fees charged by the Adviser and Sub-Advisers for managing other mutual funds and institutional accounts using investment strategies and techniques similar to those used in managing the Funds; (iii) comparative data regarding the total expenses of each Fund; (iv) copies of each form of Advisory Agreement and Sub-Advisory Agreement; (v) copies of the codes of ethics of the Adviser and each Sub-Adviser, together with information relating to the manner in which each code is administered; (vi) financial statements of the Adviser and each Sub-Adviser (or their parent company); (vii) profitability analyses for the Adviser and each Sub-Adviser with respect to each Fund, and all Funds as a group; (viii) descriptions of the qualifications of the investment personnel responsible for managing each Fund, the structure of their compensation and their responsibilities with respect to managing other accounts or mutual funds; (ix) descriptions of the services provided to the Funds, including the investment strategies and techniques used by each Sub-Adviser in managing the Funds; (x) data relating to portfolio turnover and brokerage practices, including practices with respect to the acquisition of research through "soft dollar" benefits received in connection with the Funds' brokerage and the use of Commission Sharing Arrangements; (xi) descriptions of the policies and procedures of the various service providers of the Funds for protecting the privacy of shareholder information; (xii) information relating to projected sales and redemptions of Fund shares and business plans relating to the Adviser's mutual fund platform; (xiii) descriptions of the business continuity and disaster recovery plans of the Adviser and each Sub-Adviser; (xiv) descriptions of various compliance programs of the Adviser and Sub-Advisers, including the Adviser's programs for monitoring and enforcing compliance with the Funds' policies with respect to market-timing, late trading and selective portfolio disclosure; (xv) independent reports analyzing the quality of the trade execution services performed by Sub-Advisers for the Funds; and (xvi) other information relevant to an evaluation of the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the Adviser and each Sub-Adviser in response to a series of detailed questions posed by Goodwin Procter LLP, legal counsel for the Independent Trustees ("Independent Counsel") on behalf of the
100
ADVISORY CONTRACT APPROVAL DISCUSSION (UNAUDITED) (CONTINUED)
Independent Trustees. With respect to each Sub-Advisory Agreement, the Board also considered the Adviser's recommendation that the Agreement be renewed and the basis provided by the Adviser for such recommendation.
The type and format of the information provided to the Board has been codified in the ING Funds' 15(c) Methodology Guide (the "Guide"), which sets out a blueprint pursuant to which the Independent Trustees request certain information that they deem important to facilitate an informed review in connection with initial and annual approvals of advisory and sub-advisory contracts. As part of its ongoing process, the Contracts Committee annually reviews the Guide, and recommends or considers recommendations from the Adviser for revisions to the Guide. In addition, in recent years the Contracts Committee has employed the services of an independent consultant (the "Independent Consultant") to assist in its review and analysis of, among other matters, the Guide.
The Contracts Committee began the formal review process in August 2011 when it met separately with Independent Counsel to review the information to be requested from management and the methodology to be used in determining the selected peer groups for comparing performance and expenses (the "Peer Group Methodology"). Prior to the August meeting, the Contracts Committee engaged the Independent Consultant to evaluate, and make recommendations with respect to, the Peer Group Methodology. The Independent Consultant's findings were reported to the Contracts Committee at the August meeting and incorporated into the Peer Group Methodology approved by the Board. The Contracts Committee then held meetings on October 18-19, 2011 and December 13-14, 2011, during which the Independent Trustees, meeting separately with Independent Counsel, reviewed and evaluated the information described above. As part of the review process, the Contracts Committee also met with representatives from the Adviser and/or the Sub-Advisers to discuss the information provided to the Committee. The Contracts Committee also considered information that had been provided by the Adviser and Sub-Advisers throughout the year at other meetings of the Contracts Committee, the Audit Committee, the Compliance Committee and the full Board.
The Independent Trustees were assisted by Independent Counsel, throughout the contract review process. The Independent Trustees relied upon the advice of Independent Counsel and their own business judgment in determining the material factors to be considered in evaluating each Advisory and Sub-Advisory Agreement and the weight to be given to each such factor. The conclusions reached by the Independent Trustees were based on a comprehensive evaluation of all of the information provided and were not the result of any one factor. Moreover, each Independent Trustee may have afforded different weight to the various factors in reaching conclusions with respect to each Advisory and Sub-Advisory Agreement.
Nature, Extent and Quality of Services
In considering whether to approve the Advisory and Sub-Advisory Agreements for the Funds for the year commencing January 1, 2012, the Board evaluated the nature, extent and quality of services provided to the Funds by the Adviser and Sub-Advisers. The Board considered the investment management and related services provided by the Adviser and Sub-Advisers, including the quantity and quality of the resources available to provide such services. Among other things, the Board considered the qualifications of the individuals responsible for performing various investment related services. The Board also noted the Adviser has implemented a "manager-of-managers" structure for the Funds under which the investment portfolio of each Fund is managed by a Sub-Adviser, and considered the responsibilities that the Adviser has under the "manager-of-managers" structure, including with respect to the selection and ongoing monitoring of the Sub-Advisers.
The Board also considered the quality of the compliance programs of the Adviser and each Sub-Adviser, including the manner in which the Adviser and each Sub-Adviser monitor for compliance with the investment policies and restrictions of a Fund and with the Codes of Ethics of the Funds, the Adviser and the Sub-Advisers with respect to personal trading by employees with access to portfolio information. The Board also considered the actions taken by the Adviser and Sub-Advisers to establish and maintain effective disaster recovery and business continuity plans.
The Board considered the actions taken by the Adviser and its affiliated companies to administer the Funds' policies and procedures for voting proxies, valuing the Funds' assets, selective disclosure of portfolio holdings and preventing late-trading and frequent trading of Fund shares.
The Board also took into account the efforts of the Adviser and its affiliated companies to reduce the expenses of the Funds. With respect to those Funds
101
ADVISORY CONTRACT APPROVAL DISCUSSION (UNAUDITED) (CONTINUED)
that are sub-advised by an affiliate of the Adviser, the Board specifically noted that, in recent years, the Adviser and its affiliated companies have maintained reasonable brokerage costs on behalf of the Funds and have not increased the quantity of research acquired through the use of soft dollars from the Funds' brokerage. In this regard, the Independent Trustees noted that the Adviser and its affiliated companies have established Commission Sharing Arrangements as an alternative means of maintaining access to desired research consistent with achieving best execution. The Board also noted the efforts of the Adviser to optimize the number of Funds in the ING complex of mutual funds and to standardize the asset management characteristics and policies across the ING mutual fund platform. The Board also considered the benefits that shareholders of the Funds realize because the Funds are part of the larger ING family of mutual funds, including, in most cases, the ability of shareholders to exchange or transfer investments within the same class of shares among a wide variety of mutual funds without incurring additional sales charges.
The Board considered information provided by management with respect to ING Groep's plans for divestiture of its insurance business, including its investment management business (the "Insurance Divestiture"). The Board considered the potential impact of the Insurance Divestiture on the services provided to the Funds by the Adviser and Sub-Advisers. The Board also considered the actions that have been taken by management to retain key investment management personnel in light of the Insurance Divestiture.
The Board also considered the Adviser's responsiveness and recommendations for Board action and other steps taken in response to the extraordinary dislocations experienced in the capital markets in recent years, including during periods of high volatility, credit disruption and government intervention. In particular, the Board considered the Adviser's efforts and expertise with respect to each of the following matters as they relate to the Funds: (i) negotiating and maintaining the availability of bank loan facilities and other sources of credit used to satisfy liquidity needs; (ii) establishing the fair value of securities and other instruments held in investment portfolios during periods of market volatility; (iii) negotiating and maintaining credit support from the Funds' securities lending agent with respect to certain defaulted securities held indirectly by the Funds as collateral for securities on loan; and (iv) the ongoing monitoring of investment management processes and risk controls.
The Board's approval of the Advisory and Sub-Advisory Agreements was informed by certain information provided by the Adviser and the applicable Sub-Advisers with respect to actions previously taken and proposed to be taken to improve performance of certain Covered Funds as indicated in the Fund-by-Fund analysis below.
The Board concluded that the nature, extent and quality of advisory and related services provided by the Adviser and each of the Sub-Advisers, taken as a whole, are appropriate and consistent with the terms of the respective Advisory and Sub-Advisory Agreements.
Fund Performance
The Board reviewed each Fund's investment performance over various time periods on an absolute basis and relative to the performance of (i) one or more appropriate benchmark indexes (such as the S&P 500 Composite Stock Price Index), and (ii) a group of similarly managed mutual funds identified by Morningstar, Inc. and/or, Lipper, Inc. The Board reviewed comparative performance data for the most recent calendar quarter, year-to-date, one-, three-, five- and ten-year periods, where applicable, ending June 30, 2011 and the most recent calendar quarter, year-to-date, one-, three-, and five-year periods ending September 30, 2011. For Funds with a minimum of a three-year performance record, the Board also reviewed the three-year performance against similarly managed mutual funds within a specified peer group based upon the Peer Group Methodology approved by the Contracts Committee (each, a "Selected Peer Group").
Summaries of selected portions of the performance information reviewed by the Board, together with the Board's conclusions regarding the performance of each Fund, are set forth below under "Fund-by-Fund Analysis."
Management Fees, Sub-Advisory Fees and Expenses
Consideration was given to the contractual investment advisory fee rates, inclusive of administrative fee rates, payable by the Funds to the Adviser and its affiliated companies (referred to collectively as "management fees") and the contractual sub-advisory fee rates payable by the Adviser to each Sub-Adviser for sub-advisory services. With respect to the Funds sub-advised by an affiliate of the Adviser, the Board evaluated the
102
ADVISORY CONTRACT APPROVAL DISCUSSION (UNAUDITED) (CONTINUED)
reasonableness of the total fees received by the Adviser and its affiliate in the aggregate under the Advisory and Sub-Advisory Agreements. With respect to those Funds sub-advised by a Sub-Adviser that is not affiliated with the Adviser, the Board considered the reasonableness of the fees payable to the Sub-Adviser by the Adviser in light of the ability of the Adviser to negotiate such fees on an arm's-length basis. As part of its review, the Board considered each Fund's management fee and total expense ratio, as compared to its Selected Peer Group, both before and after giving effect to any undertaking by the Adviser to waive fees and/or limit the total expenses of a Fund. In this regard, the Board considered the Adviser's undertaking not to terminate or amend any such fee waiver or expense limitation agreement prior to December 31, 2012 without the prior approval of the Board. Additionally, the Board considered undertakings by the Adviser to work with the Board to implement breakpoints for certain Funds to ensure that each of these Funds will share in the benefits of economies of scale as assets in the Fund grow.
The Board considered information regarding the nature of services and fee rates offered by the Adviser and each Sub-Adviser to similarly-managed institutional accounts and other mutual funds, if any, and the comparability (or lack thereof) of such services to those services provided to the Funds. When fee rates offered to other clients differed materially from those charged to the Funds, the Board considered any underlying rationale provided by the Adviser or the applicable Sub-Adviser for these differences. With respect to Funds sub-advised by an unaffiliated Sub-Adviser, the Board did not consider such information to be a material factor because the Board believes that the Adviser negotiates sub-advisory fees with the unaffiliated Sub-Adviser on an arm's-length basis. The Board also noted that the fee rates charged to the Funds and other institutional clients of the Adviser or a Sub-Adviser (including other investment companies) may differ materially due to, among other reasons: differences in services; different regulatory requirements associated with registered investment companies, such as the Funds, as compared to non-registered investment company clients; investment capacity constraints that existed when certain contracts were first agreed upon or that might exist at present; and different pricing structures that are necessary to be competitive in different marketing channels.
After reviewing the foregoing information, and in light of the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the Adviser and each Sub-Adviser, the Board concluded with respect to each Covered Fund that the management fee charged to the Covered Fund for advisory, sub-advisory and related services is fair and reasonable. Summaries of selected portions of the fee and expense information reviewed with respect to each Covered Fund are set forth below under "Fund-by-Fund Analysis."

The Board considered information relating to revenues, expenses, and profits realized by the Adviser and each Sub-Adviser attributable to performing advisory, sub-advisory and administrative services for the Funds. With respect to Funds sub-advised by an unaffiliated Sub-Adviser, the Board did not consider the profitability of the Sub-Adviser to be a material factor because the Board believes that the Adviser negotiates sub-advisory fees with the unaffiliated Sub-Adviser on an arm's-length basis. The Board reviewed profitability data for the Adviser and its affiliated companies, including the distributor of the Funds, relating to (i) each Fund separately, (ii) all Funds as a group, (iii) all "retail" Funds as a group, and (iv) all variable insurance product Funds as a group, in each case for the one-year periods ended December 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009 and the nine-month period ended September 30, 2011. With respect to the Adviser and its affiliates, such information was prepared in accordance with a methodology approved by the Contracts Committee. The Board considered the profitability of the Adviser and its affiliated companies attributable to managing and operating each Fund both with and without the profitability of the distributor of the Funds and both before and after giving effect to any expenses incurred by the Adviser or any affiliated company in making revenue sharing or other payments to third parties, including affiliated insurance companies, for distribution and administrative services. With respect to Funds sub-advised by an affiliate of the Adviser, the Board considered the total profits derived by the Adviser and its affiliate in the aggregate attributable to managing and operating each Fund. The Board recognized that measuring profitability is not an exact science, that there is no uniform methodology for determining profitability for this purpose and that different methodologies can produce dramatically different profit and loss results. The Board also considered other direct or indirect benefits that the Adviser and Sub-Advisers, and any affiliated companies thereof, derive from their relationships with the Funds, including the receipt by certain affiliates of the Adviser, of fees relating to the offering of bundled financial products, such as annuity contracts, and the receipt by Sub-Advisers of "soft dollar" benefits from the Funds'

brokerage. The Board concluded that, in light of the nature, extent and quality of the services provided, the profits realized by the Adviser and its affiliated companies, individually and taken as a whole, with respect to providing advisory, sub-advisory and administrative services for each Fund are reasonable.
Economies of Scale
In considering the reasonableness of the management fee of each Fund, the Board considered the extent to which economies of scale can be expected to be realized by a Fund's Adviser and its affiliated companies, on the one hand, and by the Fund, on the other hand, as the assets of the Fund grow. The Board noted that the advisory fee schedule for certain Funds includes breakpoints such that, as the assets of the Fund grow, the Fund's management fee will decrease as a percentage of the Fund's total assets. The Board recognized the inherent difficulties in measuring precisely the impact of any economies of scale being realized by the Adviser and its affiliated companies with respect to their management of any one or more Funds. In an effort to determine the extent to which economies of scale, if any, will be realized by the Adviser and its affiliated companies as the assets of the Funds grow, the Board considered the profitability data described above relating to the Adviser and its affiliated companies in light of changes in the assets of the Funds over various time periods. The Board noted that the total assets under management of certain of the Funds have decreased during the past several years and concluded that the economies of scale realized by the Adviser and its affiliated companies from managing the Funds have not increased with respect to such Funds. Additionally, the Board noted that the total assets under management of many of the Funds have increased during the past year, and considered undertakings by the Adviser to work with the Board to implement breakpoints for certain of these Funds, to ensure that each of these Funds will share in the benefits of economies of scale as assets in the Fund grow. The Board also reviewed information regarding the expense ratio of each Fund in light of changes in the assets of the Funds over various time periods, noting that, as the assets of a Fund increase, the fixed expenses of the Fund, as a percentage of the total assets of the Fund, can be expected to decrease. The Board considered such expense information in light of projections provided by the Adviser with respect to the future growth of assets of the Funds. Based upon the foregoing, the Board concluded that the economies of scale being realized by the Adviser and its affiliated companies do not mandate the implementation of breakpoints or additional breakpoints, as the case may be, with respect to any Covered Fund at this time.
Fund-by-Fund Analysis
In deciding to approve the continuation of each Advisory and Sub-Advisory Agreement for an additional one-year period beginning January 1, 2012, the Board took into account the specific data and factors identified below relating to the performance, fees and expenses of each Covered Fund and actions being taken by the Adviser or Sub-Adviser, as the case may be, with respect to these matters. Except as otherwise indicated, the performance data described below for each Fund is for periods ended September 30, 2011 and the management fees and expense data described below are as of June 30, 2011.
ING Balanced Portfolio
In evaluating the investment performance of ING Balanced Portfolio, the Board noted that: (1) the Portfolio underperformed its Morningstar category median for each period presented; (2) the Portfolio underperformed its benchmark index for each period presented; and (3) that the Portfolio is ranked in its Morningstar category in the fourth quintile for the most recent calendar quarter, year-to-date and five-year periods, and in the fifth quintile for the one-year and three-year period. The Board considered that in 2010 the Sub-Adviser implemented material changes to the investment strategies used to manage the equity component of the Portfolio, shifting from a quantitative based model to a fundamental research method for selecting stocks in the equity component of the Portfolio and increasing the Portfolio's exposure to international equities. The Board also considered recent changes in 2009 and 2010 to the Sub-Adviser's portfolio management teams. The Board concluded that appropriate actions are being taken to improve performance and that additional time is required to evaluate the effectiveness of such actions.
In assessing the reasonableness of the management fee of ING Balanced Portfolio, the Board noted that the management fee for the Portfolio is below the median and average management fees of the funds in its Selected Peer Group and that the expense ratio for the Portfolio is below the median and average expense ratios of the funds in its Selected Peer Group.

Portfolio, the Board noted that: (1) the Portfolio underperformed its Morningstar category median for each period presented; (2) the Portfolio underperformed its benchmark index for the most recent calendar quarter, year-to-date and one-year periods and outperformed its benchmark index for the three-year and five-year periods; and (3) the Portfolio is ranked in its Morningstar category in the fourth quintile for the year-to-date, one-year and three-year periods and the third quintile for the most recent calendar quarter and the five-year periods. Additionally, the Board considered recent additions to the portfolio management team made by the Sub-Adviser. The Board concluded that appropriate actions are being taken to improve performance and that additional time is required to evaluate the effectiveness of such actions.
In assessing the reasonableness of the management fee for ING BlackRock Science and Technology Opportunities Portfolio, the Board noted that the management fee for the Portfolio is above the median and average management fees of the funds in its Selected Peer Group and that the expense ratio for the Portfolio is above the median and average expense ratios of the portfolios in its Selected Peer Group.
ING Growth and Income Portfolio
In evaluating the investment performance of ING Growth and Income Portfolio, the Board noted that: (1) the Portfolio outperformed its Morningstar category median for the most recent calendar quarter, three-year and five-year periods, but underperformed for the year-to-date and one-year periods; (2) the Portfolio underperformed its benchmark index for each period presented; and (3) the Portfolio is ranked in its Morningstar category in the third quintile for the most recent calendar quarter and year-to-date periods, in the second quintile for the three-year and five-year periods, and in the fourth quintile for the one-year period. The Board noted that the Fund had significantly underperformed its peers during relatively short time periods in 2010 and 2011, which had the effect of masking the Fund's otherwise strong long-term performance record. After further consideration of these matters, the Board concluded that the performance of the Fund is satisfactory.
In assessing the reasonableness of the management fee for ING Growth and Income Portfolio, the Board noted that the management fee for the Portfolio is below the median and average management fees of the funds in its Selected Peer Group and that the expense ratio for the Portfolio is below the median and average expense ratios of the funds in its Selected Peer Group.
ING Small Company Portfolio
In evaluating the investment performance of ING Small Company Portfolio, the Board noted that: (1) the Portfolio outperformed its Morningstar category median for the most recent calendar quarter and five-year period, but underperformed for the year-to-date, one-year and three-year periods; (2) the Portfolio outperformed its benchmark index for the most recent calendar quarter, year-to-date, three-year and five-year periods, but underperformed the benchmark index for the one-year period; and (3) the Portfolio is ranked in its Morningstar category in the first quintile for the five-year period, in the third quintile for the most recent calendar quarter, year-to-date and three-year periods and in the fourth quintile for the one-year period. The Board noted that the Portfolio had significantly underperformed its peers during relatively short time periods in 2010 and 2011, which had the effect of masking the Portfolio's otherwise strong long-term performance record. After further consideration of these matters, the Board concluded that the performance of the Fund is satisfactory.
In assessing the reasonableness of the management fee for ING Small Company Portfolio, the Board noted that the management fee for the Portfolio is below the median and average management fees of the funds in its Selected Peer Group, and that the expense ratio for the Portfolio is below the median and average expense ratios of the funds in its Selected Peer Group.
ING Intermediate Bond Portfolio
In evaluating the investment performance of ING Intermediate Bond Portfolio, the Board noted that: (1) the Portfolio outperformed its Morningstar category median for the most recent calendar quarter, year-to-date and one-year periods, but underperformed for the three-year and five-year periods; (2) the Portfolio underperformed its benchmark index for each period presented; and (3) the Portfolio is ranked in its Morningstar category in the first quintile for the one-year period, the second quintile for the year-to-date period, in the third quintile for the most recent calendar quarter, and in the fourth quintile for the three-year and five-year periods. The Board concluded that the performance of the Portfolio is satisfactory.
In assessing the reasonableness of the management fee for ING Intermediate Bond Portfolio, the Board noted that the management fee for the Portfolio is below the median and average management fees of
105

the funds in its Selected Peer Group, and that the expense ratio for the Portfolio is below the median and average expense ratios of the funds in its Selected Peer Group.
ING Money Market Portfolio
In evaluating the investment performance of ING Money Market Portfolio, the Board noted that: (1) the Portfolio performed equal to its Morningstar category median for the most recent calendar quarter and outperformed for the year-to-date, one-year, three-year and five-year periods; (2) the Portfolio performed equal to its benchmark index for the most recent calendar quarter and underperformed for the year-to-date, one-year, three-year and five-year periods; and (3) although the Portfolio is not ranked by Morningstar, the Portfolio is ranked in its Lipper category in the first quintile for each period presented. In assessing the performance of the Fund, the Board noted that throughout 2011 the Sub-Adviser continued to operate the Fund in a risk averse manner by investing primarily in highly liquid instruments of short duration of high quality issuers that have received direct central government support or guarantees and securities that are the subject of liquidity programs of the Federal Reserve or the U.S. Treasury due to the continued high level of volatility in the money markets. The Board also recognized that since 2009 the Adviser and its affiliates have been waiving, and/or reimbursing fees in order for the Fund to maintain a net yield equal to, or greater than zero. The Board concluded that the performance of the Portfolio is satisfactory.
In assessing the reasonableness of the management fee for ING Money Market Portfolio, the Board noted that the management fee for the Portfolio is above the median and average management fees of the funds in its Selected Peer Group, and that the expense ratio for the Portfolio is above the median and average expense ratios of the funds in its Selected Peer Group. The Board noted that during 2011 the Adviser and its affiliates continued to voluntarily waive, and/or reimburse fees in order for the Fund to maintain a net yield equal to, or greater than zero.

(e) (1) Audit Committee Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures
AUDIT AND NON-AUDIT SERVICES
PRE-APPROVAL POLICY
I. Statement of Principles
Under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the “Act”), the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors or Trustees (the “Committee”) of the ING Funds (each a “Fund,” collectively, the “Funds”) set out under Paragraph I on Exhibit A to this Audit and Non-Audit Services Pre-Approval Policy (“Policy”) is responsible for the oversight of the work of the Funds’ independent auditors. As part of its responsibilities, the Committee must pre-approve the audit and non-audit services performed by the auditors in order to assure that the provision of these services does not impair the auditors’ independence from the Funds. The Committee has adopted, and the Board has ratified, this Policy, which sets out the procedures and conditions under which the services of the independent auditors may be pre-approved.
Under Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules promulgated in accordance with the Act, the Funds’ may establish two different approaches to pre-approving audit and non-audit services. The Committee may approve services without consideration of specific case-by-case services (“general pre-approval”) or it may pre-approve specific services (“specific pre-approval”). The Committee believes that the combination of these approaches contemplated in this Policy results in an effective and efficient method for pre-approving audit and non-audit services to be performed by the Funds’ independent auditors. Under this Policy, services that are not of a type that may receive general pre-approval require specific pre-approval by the Committee. Any proposed services that exceed pre-approved cost levels or budgeted amounts will also require the Committee’s specific pre-approval.
For both types of approval, the Committee considers whether the subject services are consistent with the SEC’s rules on auditor independence and that such services are compatible with maintaining the auditors’ independence. The Committee also considers whether a particular audit firm is in the best position to provide effective and efficient services to the Funds. Reasons that the auditors are in the best position include the auditors’ familiarity with the Funds’ business, personnel, culture, accounting systems, risk profile, and other factors, and whether the services will enhance the Funds’ ability to manage and control risk or improve audit quality. Such factors will be considered as a whole, with no one factor being determinative.
The appendices attached to this Policy describe the audit, audit-related, tax-related, and other services that have the Committee’s general pre-approval. For any service that has been approved through general pre-approval, the general pre-approval will remain in place for a period 12 months from the date of pre-approval, unless the Committee determines that a different period is appropriate. The Committee will annually review and pre-approve the services that may be provided by the independent auditors without specific pre-approval. The Committee will revise the list of services subject to general pre-approval as appropriate. This Policy does not serve as a delegation to Fund management of the Committee’s duty to pre-approve services performed by the Funds’ independent auditors.
II. Audit Services
The annual audit services engagement terms and fees are subject to the Committee’s specific pre-approval. Audit services are those services that are normally provided by auditors in connection with statutory and regulatory filings or engagements or those that generally only independent auditors can reasonably provide. They include the Funds’ annual financial statement audit and procedures that the independent auditors must perform in order to form an opinion on the Funds’ financial statements (e.g., information systems and procedural reviews and testing). The Committee will monitor the audit services engagement and approve any changes in terms, conditions or fees deemed by the Committee to be necessary or appropriate.
The Committee may grant general pre-approval to other audit services, such as statutory audits and services associated with SEC registration statements, periodic reports and other documents filed with the SEC or issued in connection with securities offerings.
The Committee has pre-approved the audit services listed on Appendix A. The Committee must specifically approve all audit services not listed on Appendix A.
III. Audit-related Services
Audit-related services are assurance and related services that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit or the review of the Funds’ financial statements or are traditionally performed by the independent auditors. The Committee believes that the provision of audit-related services will not impair the independent auditors’ independence, and therefore may grant pre-approval to audit-related services. Audit-related services include accounting consultations related to accounting, financial reporting or disclosure matters not classified as “audit services;” assistance with understanding and implementing new accounting and financial reporting guidance from rulemaking authorities; agreed-upon or expanded audit procedures relating to accounting and/or billing records required to respond to or comply with financial, accounting or regulatory reporting matters; and assistance with internal control reporting requirements under Form N-SAR or Form N-CSR.
The Committee has pre-approved the audit-related services listed on Appendix B. The Committee must specifically approve all audit-related services not listed on Appendix B.
IV. Tax Services
The Committee believes the independent auditors can provide tax services to the Funds, including tax compliance, tax planning, and tax advice, without compromising the auditors’ independence. Therefore, the Committee may grant general pre-approval with respect to tax services historically provided by the Funds’ independent auditors that do not, in the Committee’s view, impair auditor independence and that are consistent with the SEC’s rules on auditor independence.
The Committee will not grant pre-approval if the independent auditors initially recommends a transaction the sole business purpose of which is tax avoidance and the tax treatment of which may
not be supported in the Internal Revenue Code and related regulations. The Committee may consult outside counsel to determine that tax planning and reporting positions are consistent with this Policy.
The Committee has pre-approved the tax-related services listed on Appendix C. The Committee must specifically approve all tax-related services not listed on Appendix C.
V. Other Services
The Committee believes it may grant approval of non-audit services that are permissible services for independent auditors to a Fund. The Committee has determined to grant general pre-approval to other services that it believes are routine and recurring, do not impair auditor independence, and are consistent with SEC rules on auditor independence.
The Committee has pre-approved the non-audit services listed on Appendix D. The Committee must specifically approve all non-audit services not listed on Appendix D.
A list of the SEC’s prohibited non-audit services is attached to this Policy as Appendix E. The SEC’s rules and relevant guidance should be consulted to determine the precise definitions of these impermissible services and the applicability of exceptions to certain of the SEC’s prohibitions.
VI. Pre-approval of Fee levels and Budgeted Amounts
The Committee will annually establish pre-approval fee levels or budgeted amounts for audit, audit-related, tax and non-audit services to be provided to the Funds by the independent auditors. Any proposed services exceeding these levels or amounts require the Committee’s specific pre-approval. The Committee considers fees for audit and non-audit services when deciding whether to pre-approve services. The Committee may determine, for a pre-approval period of 12 months, the appropriate ratio between the total amount of fees for the Fund’s audit, audit-related, and tax services (including fees for services provided to Fund affiliates that are subject to pre-approval), and the total amount of fees for certain permissible non-audit services for the Fund classified as other services (including any such services provided to Fund affiliates that are subject to pre-approval).
VII. Procedures
Requests or applications for services to be provided by the independent auditors will be submitted to management. If management determines that the services do not fall within those services generally pre-approved by the Committee and set out in the appendices to these procedures, management will submit the services to the Committee or its delagee. Any such submission will include a detailed description of the services to be rendered.
Notwithstanding this paragraph, the Committee will, on quarterly basis, receive from the independent auditors a list of services provided to date by the auditors during Pre-Approval Period.
VIII. Delegation
The Committee may delegate pre-approval authority to one or more of the Committee’s members. Any member or members to whom such pre-approval authority is delegated must report any pre-approval decisions, including any pre-approved services, to the Committee at its next scheduled meeting. The Committee will identify any member to whom pre-approval authority is delegated in writing. The member will retain such authority for a period of 12 months from the date of pre-approval unless the Committee determines that a different period is appropriate. The period of delegated authority may be terminated by the Committee or at the option of the member.
IX. Additional Requirements
The Committee will take any measures the Committee deems necessary or appropriate to oversee the work of the independent auditors and to assure the auditors’ independence from the Funds. This may include reviewing a formal written statement from the independent auditors delineating all relationships between the auditors and the Funds, consistent with Independence Standards Board No. 1, and discussing with the auditors their methods and procedures for ensuring independence.
Effective April 23, 2008, the KPMG LLP (“KPMG”) audit team for the ING Funds accepted the global responsibility for monitoring the auditor independence for KPMG relative to the ING Funds. Using a proprietary system called Sentinel, the audit team is able to identify and manage potential conflicts of interest across the member firms of the KPMG International Network and prevent the provision of prohibited services to the ING entities that would impair KPMG independence with the respect to the ING Funds. In addition to receiving pre-approval from the ING Funds Audit Committee for services provided to the ING Funds and for services for ING entities in the Investment Company Complex, the audit team has developed a process for periodic notification via email to the ING Funds’ Audit Committee Chairpersons regarding requests to provide services to ING Groep NV and its affiliates from KPMG offices worldwide. Additionally, KPMG provides a quarterly summary of the fees for services that have commenced for ING Groep NV and Affiliates at each Audit Committee Meeting.

Item 10. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
The Nominating Committee operates pursuant to a Charter approved by the Board. The primary purpose of the Nominating Committee is to consider, evaluate and make recommendations to the Board with respect to the nomination and selection of Independent Trustees. In evaluating candidates, the Nominating Committee may consider a variety of factors, but specific qualifications of candidates for Board membership will be based on the needs of the Board at the time of nomination.
The Nominating Committee is willing to consider nominations received from shareholders and shall assess shareholder nominees in the same manner as it reviews nominees it identifies. A shareholder nominee for director should be submitted in writing to the Fund’s Secretary. Any such shareholder nomination should include sufficient background information concerning the candidate and should be received in a timely manner. At a minimum, the following information as to each individual proposed for nomination as director should be included: the individual’s written consent to be named in the proxy statement as a nominee (if nominated) and to serve as a director (if elected), and all information relating to such individual that is required to be disclosed in a solicitation of proxies for election of directors, or is otherwise required, in each case under applicable federal securities laws, rules and regulations.
The Secretary shall submit all nominations received in a timely manner to the Nominating Committee. To be timely, any such submission must be delivered to the Fund’s Secretary not earlier than the 90th day prior to such meeting and not later than the close of business on the later of the 60th day prior to such meeting or the 10th day following the day on which public announcement of the date of the meeting is first made, by either disclosure in a press release or in a document publicly filed by the Fund with the SEC.
In evaluating a candidate for the position of Independent Trustee, including any candidate recommended by shareholders of the Fund, the Nominating Committee shall consider the following: (i) the candidate’s knowledge in matters relating to the mutual fund industry; (ii) any experience possessed by the candidate as a director or senior officer of other public companies; (iii) the candidate’s educational background, reputation for high ethical standards and professional integrity; (iv) any specific financial, technical or other expertise possessed by the candidate, and the extent to which such expertise would complement the Board’s existing mix of skills, core competencies and qualifications; (v) the candidate’s perceived ability to contribute to the ongoing functions of the Board, including the candidate’s ability and commitment to attend meetings regularly and work collaboratively with other members of the Board; (vi) the candidate’s ability to qualify as an Independent Trustee for purposes of the 1940 Act; and (vii) such other factors as the Committee determines to be relevant in light of the existing composition of the Board and any anticipated vacancies. Prior to making a final recommendation to the Board, the Committee shall conduct personal interviews with those candidates it concludes are the most qualified candidates.
