LETTER FROM THE CHAIRMAN

|
|
Dear Shareholder,
The U.S. economy overcame a number of obstacles and continued to expand during the reporting period. Rising interest rates, record high oil prices, and geopolitical issues threatened to send the economy into a “soft patch.” However, when all was said and done, first quarter 2005 gross domestic product (“GDP”)i growth was 3.8%, mirroring the solid gain that occurred during the fourth quarter of 2004.
Given the overall strength of the economy, the Federal Reserve Board (“Fed”)ii continued to raise interest rates over the period in an attempt to ward off inflation. Following five rate hikes from June 2004 through December 2004, the Fed again increased its target for the federal funds rateiii in 0.25% increments four additional times during the reporting period. All told, the Fed’s nine rate hikes brought the target for the federal funds rate from 1.00% to 3.25%.
During the six months covered by this report, the U.S. stock market was relatively flat, with the S&P 500 Indexiv returning -0.81%. As was the case in the U.S., international equities largely treaded water during the six-month reporting period. | | R. JAY GERKEN, CFA Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer* |
During this time, international equities, as measured by the MSCI EAFE Index,v fell 1.17%. Lackluster economic news, record high oil prices, and a strengthening U.S. dollar all kept the international equity markets from generating momentum. An April 2005 International Monetary Fund World Economic Outlook projected a modest 1.6% growth rate for the Eurozone in 2005 and Japanese growth was expected to be 0.8% in 2005, compared to 2.6% in 2004. In addition, oil prices hit $60 a barrel and led to additional concerns regarding economic growth and a possible increase in inflation. Finally, after falling in 2004, the U.S. dollar surprisingly rose versus the yen and euro during the reporting period. This was bad news for Americans investing overseas, as returns from international securities then decline when translated back into U.S. dollars. Stocks were weak early in the reporting period, as the issues discussed above caused investors to remain on the sidelines. Equities then rallied in the second quarter of 2005, as the economy appeared to be on solid footing and inflation was largely under control. Looking at the reporting period as a whole, mid-cap stocks generated superior returns, with the Russell Midcap,vi Russell 1000,vii and Russell 2000viii Indexes returning 3.92%, 0.11%, and -1.25%, respectively. From a market style perspective, value-oriented stocks outperformed their growth counterparts.
During the reporting period, the fixed income market confounded many investors as short-term interest rates rose in concert with the Fed rate tightening, while longer-term rates, surprisingly, declined. When the period began, the federal funds target rate was 2.25% and the yield on the 10-year Treasury was 4.24%. When the reporting period ended, the federal funds rate rose to 3.25% and the 10-year yield fell to 3.92%. Declining long term rates, mixed economic data, and periodic flights to quality all supported bond prices. Looking at the six-month period as a whole, the overall bond market, as measured by the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index,ix returned 2.51%.
Within this environment, the Funds performed as follows:1
Travelers Quality Bond Portfolio1
For the six months ended June 30, 2005, the Travelers Quality Bond Portfolio, excluding sales charges, returned 1.72%. The Fund outperformed its unmanaged benchmark, the Lehman Brothers Intermediate Government/ Credit Bond Index,x which returned 1.59% for the same period. It also outperformed the Lipper Variable Short-Intermediate Investment Grade Debt Funds Category Average2 which increased 0.96%.
Mondrian International Stock Portfolio1
For the six months ended June 30, 2005, the Mondrian International Stock Portfolio, excluding sales charges, returned - -1.61%. The Fund outperformed its unmanaged benchmark, the MSCI EAFE GDP Index,xi which returned -2.09% for the same period. The Lipper Variable International Value Funds Category Average3 decreased 1.38% over the same time frame.

Example
As a shareholder of the Funds, you may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees and other Funds’ expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Funds and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
This example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested on January 1, 2005 and held for the six months ended June 30, 2005.
Actual Expenses
The table below titled “Based on Actual Total Return” provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information provided in this table, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. To estimate the expenses you paid on your account, divide your ending account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 ending account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During the Period”.

(2) | Assumes reinvestment of dividends and capital gains distributions, if any, at net asset value. Total return is not annualized, as it may not be representative of the total return for the year. Total returns do not reflect expenses associated with the separate account such as administrative fees, account charges and surrender charges, which, if reflected, would reduce the total returns. Performance figures may reflect fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. In the absence of fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements, the total return would have been lower. |
(3) | Expenses are equal to each Fund’s respective annualized expense ratio multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by the number of days in the most recent fiscal half-year, then divided by 365. |

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

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

(1) | Per share amounts have been calculated using the average shares method. |
|
(2) | For the six months ended June 30, 2005 (unaudited). |
|
(3) | Effective January 1, 2001, the Fund adopted a change in the accounting method that requires the Fund to amortize premiums and accrete all discounts. Without the adoption of this change, for the year ended December 31, 2001 these amounts would have been $0.61, $0.18 and 5.31% for net investment income, net realized and unrealized gain and the ratio of net investment income to average net assets, respectively. Per share information, ratios and supplemental data for the periods prior to January 1, 2001 have not been restated to reflect this change in presentation. |
|
(4) | Amount is less than $0.01. |
|
(5) | Performance figures may reflect fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. In the absence of fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements, the total return would be lower. Total returns do not reflect expenses associated with the separate accounts such as administrative fees, account charges and surrender charges which, if reflected, would reduce the total return for all periods shown. Total returns for periods of less than one year are not annualized. |
|
(6) | Annualized. |
|
(7) | As a result of an expense limitation, the ratio of expenses to average net assets of the Fund will not exceed 0.75%. |
|
(8) | The sub-administrator voluntarily waived a portion of its fee. |

Notes to Financial Statements (unaudited)
1. Organization and Significant Accounting Policies
The Travelers Quality Bond Portfolio (“TQB”), Mondrian International Stock Portfolio (formerly Lazard International Stock Portfolio) (“MIS”), Federated High Yield Portfolio (“FHY”), Federated Stock Portfolio (“FSP”) and Disciplined Mid Cap Stock Portfolio (“DMCS”) (“Funds”) are separate diversified investment funds of The Travelers Series Trust (“Trust”). The Trust, a Massachusetts business trust, is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (“1940 Act”), as amended, as an open-end management investment company. Shares of the Trust are offered exclusively for use with certain variable annuity and variable life insurance contracts offered through the separate accounts of various affiliated life insurance companies.
The following are significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Funds. These policies are in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Estimates and assumptions are required to be made regarding assets, liabilities and changes in net assets resulting from operations when financial statements are prepared. Changes in the economic environment, financial markets and any other parameters used in determining these estimates could cause actual results to differ.
(a) Investment Valuation. Equity securities for which market quotations are available are valued at the last sale price or official closing price on the primary market or exchange on which they trade. Debt securities are valued at the mean between the bid and asked prices provided by an independent pricing service that are based on transactions in debt obligations, quotations from bond dealers, market transactions in comparable securities and various relationships between securities. When prices are not readily available, or are determined not to reflect fair value, such as when the value of a security has been significantly affected by events after the close of the exchange or market on which the security is principally traded, but before the Funds calculate their net asset values, the Funds may value these investments at fair value as determined in accordance with the procedures approved by the Funds’ Board of Trustees. Fair valuing of securities may be determined with the assistance of a pricing service using calculations based on indices of domestic securities and other appropriate indicators, such as prices of relevant ADRs and futures contracts. Short-term obligations with maturities of 60 days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value.
(b) Repurchase Agreements. When entering into repurchase agreements, it is the Funds’ policy that their custodian or a third party custodian takes possession of the underlying collateral securities, the market value of which at least equals the principal amount of the repurchase transaction, including accrued interest. To the extent that any repurchase transaction exceeds one business day, the value of the collateral is marked-to-market to ensure the adequacy of the collateral. If the seller defaults and the market value of the collateral declines or if bankruptcy proceedings are commenced with respect to the seller of the security, realization of the collateral by the Funds may be delayed or limited.
(c) Financial Futures Contracts. Certain Funds may enter into financial futures contracts typically as a substitution for buying or selling securities and as a cash flow management technique. Upon entering into a financial futures contract, the Funds are required to deposit cash or securities as initial margin. Additional securities are also segregated up to the current market value of the financial futures contracts. Subsequent payments, known as variation margin, are made or received by the Funds each day, depending on the daily fluctuation in the value of the underlying financial instruments. The Funds recognize an unrealized gain or loss equal to the daily variation margin. When the financial futures contracts are closed, a realized gain or loss is recognized equal to the difference between the proceeds from (or cost of) the closing transactions and the Funds’ basis in the contracts.
The risks associated with entering into financial futures contracts include the possibility that a change in the value of the contract may not correlate with the changes in the value of the underlying instruments. In addition, investing in financial futures contracts involves the risk that the Funds could lose more than the original margin deposit and subsequent payments required for a futures transaction. Risk may also arise upon entering into these contracts from the potential inability of the counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts.
(d) Forward Foreign Currency Contracts. Certain Funds may enter into forward foreign currency contracts to hedge against foreign currency exchange rate risk on their non-U.S. dollar denominated securities or to facilitate settlement of foreign currency denominated portfolio transactions. A forward foreign currency contract is an agreement between two parties to buy and sell a currency at a set price on a future date. The contract is marked-to-market daily and the change in value is recorded by the Funds as an unrealized gain or loss. When a forward foreign currency contract is
58
Notes to Financial Statements (unaudited) (continued)
extinguished, through either delivery or offset by entering into another forward foreign currency contract, the Funds record a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value of the contract at the time it was extinguished.
Forward foreign currency contracts involve elements of market risk in excess of the amounts reflected in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. The Funds bear the risk of an unfavorable change in the foreign exchange rate underlying the forward foreign currency contract. Risks may also arise upon entering into these contracts from the potential inability of the counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts.
(e) Lending of Portfolio Securities. The Funds have an agreement with their custodian whereby the custodian may lend securities owned by the Funds to brokers, dealers and other financial organizations. In exchange for lending securities under the terms of the agreement with their custodian, the Funds receive a lender’s fee. Fees earned by the Funds on securities lending are recorded as securities lending income. Loans of securities by the Funds are collateralized by cash, U.S. government securities or high quality money market instruments that are maintained at all times in an amount at least equal to the current market value of the loaned securities, plus a margin which varies depending on the type of securities loaned. The custodian establishes and maintains the collateral in a segregated account. The Funds have the right under the lending agreement to recover the securities from the borrower on demand.
The Funds maintain the risk of any loss on the securities on loan as well as the potential loss on investments purchased with cash collateral received from securities lending.
(f) Credit and Market Risk. Certain Funds may invest in high-yield instruments that are subject to certain credit and market risks. The yields of high-yield securities reflect, among other things, perceived credit risk. The Funds’ investments in securities rated below investment grade typically involve risks not associated with higher rated securities including, among others, greater risk related to timely and ultimate payment of interest and principal, greater market price volatility and less liquid secondary market trading. In addition, certain Funds may invest in foreign securities. The Funds’ investments in foreign securities may involve risks not present in domestic investments. Since securities may be denominated in a foreign currency and may require settlement in foreign currencies and pay interest or dividends 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 Funds. Foreign investments may also subject the Funds to foreign government exchange restrictions, expropriation, taxation or other political, social or economic developments, all of which affect the market and/or credit risk of the investments.
(g) Security Transactions and Investment Income. Security transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Interest income, adjusted for amortization of premium and accretion of discount, is recorded on the accrual basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Foreign dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or as soon as practical after the Funds determine the existence of a dividend declaration after exercising reasonable due diligence. The cost of investments sold is determined by use of the specific identification method.
(h) Foreign Currency Translation. Investment securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollar amounts based upon prevailing exchange rates on the date of valuation. Purchases and sales of investment securities and income and expense items denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollar amounts based upon prevailing exchange rates on the respective dates of such transactions.
The Funds do not isolate that 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 gain or loss on investments.
Net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from sales of foreign currencies, including gains and losses on forward foreign currency contracts, currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions and the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Funds’ 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 fair values of assets and liabilities, other than investments in securities, at the date of valuation, resulting from changes in exchange rates.
Foreign security and currency transactions may involve certain considerations and risks not typically associated with those of U.S. dollar denominated transactions as a result of, among other factors, the possibility of lower levels of
59
Notes to Financial Statements (unaudited) (continued)
governmental supervision and regulation of foreign securities markets and the possibility of political or economic instability.
(i) Distributions to Shareholders. Distributions from net investment income and distributions of net realized gains, if any, are declared at least annually. Distributions to shareholders of the Funds are recorded on the ex-dividend date and are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP.
(j) Federal and Other Taxes. It is the Funds’ policy to comply with the federal income and excise tax requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, applicable to regulated investment companies. Accordingly, the Funds intend to distribute substantially all of their taxable income and net realized gains on investments, if any, to shareholders each year. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required in the Funds’ financial statements. Under the applicable foreign tax laws, a withholding tax may be imposed on interest, dividends and capital gains at various rates.
(k) Reclassification. GAAP requires that certain components of net assets be adjusted to reflect permanent differences between financial and tax reporting. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or net asset values per share.
2. Investment Advisory Agreement, Administration Agreement and Other Transactions with Affiliates

6. Additional Information
On May 31, 2005, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) issued an order in connection with the settlement of an administrative proceeding against Smith Barney Fund Management LLC (“SBFM”) and Citigroup
62
Notes to Financial Statements (unaudited) (continued)
Global Markets Inc. (“CGMI”) relating to the appointment of an affiliated transfer agent for the Smith Barney family of mutual funds (the “Funds”), which includes the Funds (“TL&A Funds”).
The SEC order finds that SBFM and CGMI willfully violated Section 206(1) of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 (“Advisers Act”). Specifically, the order finds that SBFM and CGMI knowingly or recklessly failed to disclose to the boards of the Funds in 1999 when proposing a new transfer agent arrangement with an affiliated transfer agent that First Data Investors Services Group (“First Data”), the Funds’ then-existing transfer agent, had offered to continue as transfer agent and do the same work for substantially less money than before. Additionally, the SEC order finds that Citigroup Asset Management (“CAM”), the Citigroup business unit that, each Fund’s sub-administrator, had entered into a side letter with First Data under which CAM agreed to recommend the appointment of First Data as sub-transfer agent to the affiliated transfer agent in exchange, among other things, for a guarantee by First Data of specified amounts of asset management and investment banking fees to CAM and CGMI. The order also finds that SBFM and CGMI willfully violated Section 206(2) of the Advisers Act by virtue of the omissions discussed above and other misrepresentations and omissions in the materials provided to the Funds’ boards, including the failure to make clear that the affiliated transfer agent would earn a high profit for performing limited functions while First Data continued to perform almost all of the transfer agent functions, and the suggestion that the proposed arrangement was in the Funds’ best interests and that no viable alternatives existed. SBFM and CGMI do not admit or deny any wrongdoing or liability. The settlement does not establish wrongdoing or liability for purposes of any other proceeding.
The SEC censured SBFM and CGMI and ordered them to cease and desist from violations of Sections 206(1) and 206(2) of the Advisers Act. The order requires Citigroup to pay $208.1 million, including $109 million in disgorgement of profits, $19.1 million in interest, and a civil money penalty of $80 million. Approximately $24.4 million has already been paid to the Funds, primarily through fee waivers. In addition, Travelers Life & Annuity and CAM reviewed the adequacy and accuracy of the disclosure provided to the TL&A Funds’ boards at the time the revised transfer agency arrangement was discussed with the boards and concluded that the transfer agency fees paid to CTB, for the period from June 1, 1999 to August 23, 2004, by the TL&A Funds that did not have expense caps in effect should be reimbursed with interest to the TL&A Funds. The reimbursement occurred on November 1, 2004.
The remaining $183.7 million to be paid under the SEC order, including the penalty, has been paid to the U.S. Treasury and will be distributed pursuant to a plan to be prepared by Citigroup and submitted within 90 days of the entry of the order for approval by the SEC. The order also requires that transfer agency fees received from the Funds since December 1, 2004 less certain expenses be placed in escrow and provides that a portion of such fees may be subsequently distributed in accordance with the terms of the order.
The order requires SBFM to recommend a new transfer agent contract to the Fund boards within 180 days of the entry of the order.
At this time, there is no certainty as to how the proceeds of the settlement will be distributed, to whom such distributions will be made, the methodology by which such distributions will be allocated, and when such distributions will be made. Although there can be no assurance, Citigroup does not believe that this matter will have a material adverse effect on the Funds.
7. Other Matters
On June 24, 2005, Citigroup announced that it has signed a definitive agreement under which Citigroup will sell substantially all of its worldwide asset management business to Legg Mason, Inc. (“Legg Mason”).
As part of this transaction, Salomon Brothers Asset Management Inc. (“Salomon”) and TIMCO, currently indirect wholly owned subsidiaries of Citigroup, would become indirect wholly owned subsidiaries of Legg Mason. Salomon, effective July 1, 2005, and TIMCO are the subadvisers to TQB and DMCS, respectively.
The transaction is subject to certain regulatory approvals, as well as other customary conditions to closing. Subject to such approvals and the satisfaction of the other conditions, Citigroup expects the transaction to be completed later this year.

8. Subsequent Events
On July 1, 2005, MetLife, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“MetLife”), acquired all of the outstanding shares of capital stock of certain indirect subsidiaries held by Citigroup including TIC, The Travelers Life and Annuity Company, a wholly owned subsidiary of TIC and certain other domestic insurance companies of Citigroup and substantially all of Citigroup’s international businesses for $11.8 billion. The sale also included TIC’s affiliated investment advisor, TAMIC, which serves as the investment adviser to the Funds.
TIC filed a Form 8-K Current Report with The United States Securities and Exchange Commission on July 8, 2005, with additional information about the transaction.
On July 1, 2005, Salomon began to perform subadvisory services under a Subadvisory Agreement between TAMIC and Salomon for TQB.
Also effective July 1, 2005, PFPC Inc. replaced CTB as transfer agent for the Funds; and State Street Bank and Trust Company replaced SBFM as sub-administrator for the Funds.
The Funds were liable for excise tax payments resulting from the timing of required distribution payments made to taxable shareholders for the years 1999-2001. SBFM indemnified the Funds for any associated excise tax as well as any interest and penalties or any other costs. Subsequent to June 30, 2005, SBFM has filed all past excise tax returns for the Funds and made certain tax payments on behalf of DMCS. The Funds’ net asset values were not impacted by the outcome of this matter.
9. Change in Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
KPMG LLP was previously the independent registered public accounting firm for the Funds. In connection with the transaction described in Note 8, the decision to change the independent registered public accounting firm was approved by the Audit Committee and by the Board of Trustees, resulting in Deloitte and Touche LLP’s appointment as independent registered public accounting firm.
The reports on the financial statements of the Funds audited by KPMG LLP through the year ended December 31, 2004 did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles. There were no disagreements between the Funds and KPMG LLP on any matters of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedures.
64
Factors Considered by the Independent Trustees in Approving The Investment Advisory and
The Subadvisory Agreements (unaudited)
Beginning at a telephonic meeting on March 17, 2005, and at in person meetings on March 29 and 30, 2005, the Independent Trustees for the Travelers Series Trust: the Mondrian International Stock Portfolio, the Quality Bond Portfolio, the Federated High Yield Portfolio, the Federated Stock Portfolio, and the Disciplined Mid Cap Stock Portfolio (all, the “Portfolios”) approved the investment advisory agreements (the “Agreements”) between TAMIC and the Portfolios. In addition, the Independent Trustees, at the in person meetings on March 29 and 30, 2005, approved investment subadvisory agreements (the “Subadvisory Agreements”) between TAMIC and Mondrian Investment Partners Ltd. (“Mondrian”) for the Mondrian International Stock Portfolio, between TAMIC and Federated Investment Management Company for the Federated High Yield Portfolio, between TAMIC and Federated Equity Management Company of Pennsylvania for the Federated Stock Portfolio (with Federated Investment Management Company “Federated”), and between TAMIC and TIMCO Asset Management, Inc. (“TIMCO”) for the Disciplined Mid Cap Stock Portfolio and, at the in person meeting on April 27 and 28, 2005, the Subadvisory Agreements between TAMIC and Salomon Brothers Asset Management Inc. (“Salomon”) for the Quality Bond Portfolio. In voting to approve the Agreements and the Subadvisory Agreements, the Independent Trustees considered whether the approval of the Agreements and the Subadvisory Agreements would be in the best interests of the Portfolios and their shareholders, an evaluation largely based on the nature and quality of the services provided under the Agreements and the Subadvisory Agreements and the overall fairness of the Agreements and the Subadvisory Agreements to the shareholders.
The Independent Trustees did not identify any one factor, piece of information or written document as all important or controlling, and each Independent Trustee attributed different weight to different factors. Prior to voting, the Independent Trustees reviewed the proposed continuance of the Agreements and the Subadvisory Agreements with management and with experienced independent and fund counsel and received materials from counsel discussing the legal standards for their consideration of the proposed continuation of the Agreements and the Subadvisory Agreements. The Independent Trustees also reviewed the proposed continuation of the Agreements and the Subadvisory Agreements in private sessions alone and with their independent counsel at which no representatives of management were present. Based on an evaluation of all material factors including those described below, the Independent Trustees concluded that the Agreements and the Subadvisory Agreements were reasonable and fair and in the best interest of the Portfolios and their shareholders.
As background, MetLife Inc. (“MetLife”) and Citigroup Inc. (“Citigroup”) announced an agreement for the sale of The Travelers Insurance Company and certain affiliates by Citigroup to MetLife (the “MetLife Transaction”). The MetLife Transaction included the acquisition of TAMIC, a subsidiary of The Travelers Insurance Company and the investment adviser to the Portfolios, by MetLife. The MetLife Transaction closed on July 1, 2005. The approval of the Agreements and the Subadvisory Agreements (except for the approval of the Salomon Subadvisory Agreement which was necessary because there was no subadvisory agreement in place prior to the closing of the Metlife Transaction) was necessary because under the 1940 Act, the change in control of TAMIC resulted in the termination of the investment advisory and subadvisory agreements for the Portfolios on the closing of the MetLife Transaction. The Agreements and the Subadvisory Agreements for the Portfolios were approved by the Independent Trustees and the Agreements were submitted to a vote of the shareholders.
The Independent Trustees met in executive session and considered; (a) the nature, extent and quality of the services to be provided by TAMIC, and by Salomon, Mondrians, Federated, and TIMCO (the “subadvisors”) under the Agreements and the Subadvisory Agreements; (b) the investment performance of the Portfolio, TAMIC and the subadvisers; (c) the cost of services to be provided and the profit realized by TAMIC and the subadvisors and their affiliates, which information was to be reviewed in depth at the July, 2005 Board meeting; (d) the extent to which TAMIC realizes economies of scale as each Portfolio grows; and (e) whether the investment advisory fee levels reflect these economies of scale for the benefit of the shareholders.
As part of the process, legal counsel to the Portfolios requested certain information from MetLife and in response MetLife provided certain written and oral information that addressed certain factors designed to inform the Independent Trustees regarding their consideration of the Agreements. In making their determination, the Independent Trustees were provided with information about MetLife and its purchase of The Travelers Insurance Company from Citigroup. At the various meetings, MetLife representatives discussed MetLife’s intentions regarding the preservation and strengthening of
65
Factors Considered by the Independent Trustees in Approving The Investment Advisory and
The Subadvisory Agreements (unaudited) (continued)
TAMIC’s business and MetLife’s intentions regarding staffing changes and executive leadership changes at TAMIC. The MetLife representatives also discussed and provided certain written information on MetLife’s business and products, including MetLife’s advisory subsidiaries and their experience in overseeing subadvised mutual funds. The Independent Trustees also discussed the plans and anticipated role and responsibilities of certain of the employees and officers after the MetLife Transaction.
With respect to the nature, scope and quality of the services to be provided by TAMIC after the MetLife Transaction, the Board considered the experience of MetLife’s advisory subsidiaries and the mutual funds advised by them and also MetLife’s efforts to build and maintain a strong investment team in TAMIC. The Board also considered the level and depth of knowledge of TAMIC, including the professional experience and qualifications of its personnel as well as current staffing levels. The Independent Trustees also considered:
| | |
| • | the ability of TAMIC to continue the oversight of both the investment and compliance operations of the sub adviser after the MetLife transaction, |
|
| • | the intention of MetLife to integrate The Travelers Insurance Company and its affiliates, including TAMIC, into MetLife’s current businesses to create a single business operation, |
|
| • | MetLife’s compliance with certain conditions set forth in Section 15(f) of the 1940 Act regarding placing unfair burdens on the Portfolios, |
|
| • | anticipated changes to back office operations to the Portfolios, including the provision of administrative and transfer agency services, after the MetLife Transaction, and |
|
| • | the fact that the Agreements including the investment advisory fees would be identical to the current Agreements, except for the inception date and the express authority for TAMIC to retain subadvisers. |
In addition, the Independent Trustees noted that the performance of the Portfolios, which information the Independent Trustees receive and review on a quarterly basis, had generally been satisfactory. As to the profits realized by TAMIC from its relationship with the Portfolios, the Board noted that it was satisfied that TAMIC’s profits were not excessive in the past, and that it was not possible to predict how the MetLife Transaction would affect such profits at this time, but that it would reconsider this factor in connection with its annual review pursuant to Section 15(c) of the 1940 Act in July 2005. As to whether economies of scale would be realized as the Portfolios grow and whether fee levels reflect any such economies of scale, the Board noted that investment advisory fees for certain Portfolios included breakpoints that reduced fees payable at the higher asset levels and noted its intention to explore the possibility of instituting breakpoints for the other Portfolios. Finally, the Independent Trustees considered the level of service expected to be provided by TAMIC after the MetLife Transaction.
The Independent Trustees considered their plans to perform the annual review of the Agreements pursuant to Section 15(c) of the 1940 Act at their regularly scheduled Board meeting which was scheduled to occur three weeks after the closing of the MetLife Transaction. In light of the continuity of investment management under the Agreements, the short period between the effective date of those Agreements and the upcoming annual review, the information provided by MetLife, and MetLife’s plans to conduct a search for a subadviser for the Portfolios for which Salomon would serve as subadviser, the Board considered the information provided to it sufficient for their consideration of the Agreements at that time.
| |
| The Subadvisory Agreements |
| |
a. | Quality Bond Portfolio |
MetLife recommended and the Independent Trustees approved the retention of Salomon, which was an affiliate of TAMIC before the MetLife Transaction, as a subadviser for the Portfolios that had been managed directly by TAMIC without a subadviser, effective on or about the closing of the MetLife Transaction. For the Quality Bond Portfolio, the portfolio manager employed by Salomon was also an employee of TAMIC and the then current portfolio manager. As a result, there would be no change in the day-to-day portfolio management. The Independent Trustees noted that MetLife may in the future recommend to the Independent Trustees such additional changes to any Portfolios, including changes to the investment objectives, policies and restrictions of the Portfolios or merging one or more Portfolios into other MetLife-sponsored funds, as it determines are appropriate and as permitted by applicable law.
66
Factors Considered by the Independent Trustees in Approving The Investment Advisory and
The Subadvisory Agreements (unaudited) (continued)
As part of the process, legal counsel to the Portfolios requested certain information from Salomon and in response Salomon provided certain written and oral information that addressed certain factors designed to inform the Independent Trustees regarding their consideration of the Subadvisory Agreement. With respect to the nature, scope and quality of the services to be provided by Salomon after the MetLife Transaction, the Board considered the experience and commitment of Salomon’s personnel and nature and quality of its investment process and that the Portfolio Manager would remain the same. The Independent Trustees noted that the performance of the Portfolio had generally been satisfactory. In determining whether the terms of the Subadvisory Agreement are reasonable and fair the Board considered the terms and structure of the Agreements including the fee schedule. In evaluating the subadvisory fees, the Independent Trustees considered that the investment subadvisory fees were paid by TAMIC out of the investment advisory fees it received under the Agreement. So, the cost of the services to be provided by Salomon, and the profitability to Salomon of with regard to the Portfolio along with the economies of scale in its management of the Portfolio were not material to the consideration of Subadvisory Agreement by the Independent Trustees. The Independent Trustees noted that the overall investment advisory fee was not changing. The Independent Trustees considered also their plans to perform the annual review of the Subadvisory Agreements pursuant to Section 15(c) of the 1940 Act at their regularly scheduled July 20 and 21, 2005 Board meeting which was scheduled to occur three weeks after the closing of the MetLife Transaction. In light of the continuity of portfolio management under the Subadvisory Agreement, the short period between the effective date of the Subadvisory Agreement and the upcoming annual review, the information provided by Salomon, and MetLife’s plans to conduct a search for a sub advisor for the Portfolio for which Salomon would serve as subadviser, the Board considered the information provided to it sufficient for their consideration of the Subadvisory Agreements at that time.
| |
b. | Mondrian International Stock Portfolio, the Federated Stock Portfolio, the Federated High Yield Portfolio, and the Disciplined Mid Cap Stock Portfolio |
Also, MetLife recommended and the Independent Trustees reapproved the Subadvisory Agreements for the Mondrian International Portfolio, the Federated High Yield Portfolio, the Federated Stock Portfolio, and the Disciplined Mid Cap Portfolio. As discussed above, a change in control of TAMIC resulted in the termination of TAMIC’s previous subadvisory contracts with the subadvisers on the closing of the MetLife Transaction. With respect to the nature, scope and quality of the services to be provided by the subadvisers after the MetLife Transaction, the Board considered that the MetLife Transaction was not expected to affect the subadvisers or their services. The Independent Trustees also noted that the subadvisory fees were not changing. In evaluating the subadvisory fees, the Independent Trustees considered that the investment subadvisory fees were paid by TAMIC out of the investment advisory fees it received under the Agreements. So, the cost of the services to be provided by the subadvisers the profitability to the subadvisors with regard to the Portfolios along with the economies of scale in their management of the Portfolios were not material to the consideration of the Independent Trustees. The Board also considered that it had received quarterly performance information regarding the Portfolios. The Board noted that the performance of the Portfolios was satisfactory, but the performance for the Mondrian International Stock Portfolio and Federated Stock Portfolio was disappointing. The Board also told that Mondrian has recently replaced the Portfolio’s prior investment adviser, and determine to further review the performance of the Federated Stock Portfolio as part of the annual review at the next scheduled Board meeting. The Independent Trustees considered their plans to perform the annual review of the Subadvisory Agreements pursuant to Section 15(c) of the 1940 Act at its regularly scheduled Board meeting which was scheduled to occur three weeks after the closing of the MetLife Transaction. In light of the continuity of portfolio management under the Subadvisory Agreements, the overall performance of the Portfolios, and the short period between the effective date of the Subadvisory Agreements and the upcoming annual review, the Board considered the information provided to it sufficient for its consideration of the Subadvisory Agreements at that time.

| Other Business Relationships |
The Independent Trustees considered other business relationships that MetLife and TAMIC would enter into with Citigroup, including its affiliate Salomon. In connection with the closing of the MetLife Transaction, MetLife, Citigroup and certain of their affiliates entered into a Distribution Agreements under which Citigroup-affiliated broker-dealers will continue to offer certain TIC and MetLife insurance contracts until July 1, 2015. In addition, MetLife, Citigroup and certain of their affiliates entered into an Investment Products Agreements under which certain TIC and MetLife insurance products will include certain Citigroup-sponsored mutual funds as investment options including Salomon advised funds as investment options until July 1, 2010.

Factors Considered by the Independent Trustees in Approving The Investment Advisory and
The Subadvisory Agreements (unaudited) (continued)
Based on the deliberations of the Independent Trustees and their evaluation of the information described above, the Independent Trustees unanimously concluded that (a) the terms of the Agreements and the Subadvisory Agreements are fair and reasonable; (b) the fees are reasonable in light of the services TAMIC and the subadvisers provided to the Portfolios and their shareholders; (d) TAMIC and the subadvisers possess the capabilities to perform the duties required of them under the Agreements and the Subadvisory Agreements; (e) the investment performance of the Portfolios is generally satisfactory except as discussed above; and (f) the Agreements and the Subadvisory Agreements are approved.
