JAY GERKEN PHOTO] R. JAY GERKEN, CFA Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer DEAR SHAREHOLDER, Despite sharply rising oil prices, threats of terrorism, geopolitical concerns and uncertainties surrounding the Presidential election, the U.S. economy continued to expand during the reporting period. Following a robust 4.5% gain in the first quarter of 2004, gross domestic product ("GDP")(i) growth was 3.3% in the second quarter of the year. This decline was largely attributed to higher energy prices. However, third quarter 2004 GDP rose a strong 4.0%. While fourth quarter GDP figures have not yet been released, continued growth is expected. Turning to the financial markets, stocks in both the U.S. and abroad rallied sharply during the fourth quarter of 2004, helping to produce solid gains for the year. With the uncertainty of the Presidential election behind them, coupled with falling oil prices, investors were drawn to the equity markets. The overall bond market also generated positive returns during the fiscal year. This was surprising to many, given the economic expansion and five interest rate hikes by the Federal Reserve Board ("Fed")(ii). Within this environment, the funds performed as follows: PERFORMANCE SNAPSHOT AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2004 (UNAUDITED) <Table> <Caption> 6 MONTHS 12 MONTHS Managed Assets Trust 6.87% 9.44% S&P 500 Index 7.19% 10.87% Lehman Brothers Government/Credit Bond Index 4.39% 4.19% Lipper Variable Flexible Portfolio Funds Category Average 6.08% 8.25% High Yield Bond Trust 7.95% 8.75% Credit Suisse First Boston High Yield Index 9.25% 11.95% Lipper Variable High Current Yield Funds Category Average 8.73% 9.84% Capital Appreciation Fund 13.99% 19.53% S&P 500 Index 7.19% 10.87% Russell 2000 Index 10.83% 18.33% Lipper Variable Large-Cap Growth Funds Category Average 5.36% 8.04% U.S. Government Securities Portfolio 6.19% 6.13% Merrill Lynch U.S. Treasury/Agency Master Index 3.61% 3.42% Merrill Lynch U.S. Treasuries 15+ Years/Merrill Lynch Mortgage Master Index 6.24% 6.53% Lipper Variable General U.S. Government Funds Category Average 3.88% 3.92% Social Awareness Stock Portfolio 6.57% 6.23% S&P 500 Index 7.19% 10.87% Lipper Variable Specialty/Miscellaneous Funds Category Average 5.34% 7.82% Pioneer Fund Portfolio 9.13% 11.13% S&P 500 Index 7.19% 10.87% Lipper Variable Large-Cap Core Funds Category Average 6.18% 8.59% </Table> 1 PERFORMANCE SNAPSHOT AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2004 (CONTINUED) (UNAUDITED) <Table> <Caption> 7-DAY 7-DAY CURRENT YIELD EFFECTIVE YIELD Money Market Portfolio 1.88% 1.89% </Table> THE PERFORMANCE SHOWN REPRESENTS PAST PERFORMANCE.

Please read on for a more detailed look at prevailing economic and market conditions during the fund's fiscal year and to learn how those conditions have affected fund performance. INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR FUNDS As you may be aware, several issues in the mutual fund and variable product industry have recently come under the scrutiny of federal and state regulators. Travelers Life & Annuity and some of its affiliates have received requests for information from various government regulators regarding market timing, late trading, fees, revenue sharing, producer compensation and other mutual fund and variable product issues in connection with various investigations. The funds have been informed that Travelers Life & Annuity and its affiliates are responding to those information requests, but are not in a position to predict the outcome of these requests and investigations. As previously disclosed by Citigroup, the Staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") has notified Citigroup Asset Management ("CAM") and Citicorp Trust Bank ("CTB"), an affiliate of CAM, that the Staff is considering recommending a civil injunctive action and/or an administrative proceeding against CAM, CTB, the former CEO of CAM, two former employees and a current employee of CAM, relating to the creation, operation and fees of an internal transfer agent unit that serves various CAM-managed funds. Citigroup is cooperating with the SEC and will seek to resolve this matter in discussion with the SEC Staff. Although there can be no assurance, Citigroup does not believe that this matter will have a material adverse effect on the funds. For further information, please see the "Additional Information" note in the Notes to the Financial Statements included in this report. 2 As always, thank you for your confidence in our stewardship of your assets. We look forward to helping you continue to meet your financial goals. Sincerely, /s/ R. Jay Gerken R.

Mr. Collins is a Senior Vice President of Travelers Asset Management International Company LLC ("TAMIC"). Since 1986, he has been the Senior Portfolio Manager of the investment portfolios of Primerica Inc., the predecessor company of Citigroup Inc. Since 1998, Mr. Collins has also been the Senior Portfolio Manager of Primerica Life of Canada; a Canadian domiciled insurance company. Mr. Collins has 27 years of experience in investments covering all types of fixed income and equity securities. Mr. Lin is a Vice President of TAMIC and is responsible for managing US investment grade portfolios and structured products. He also trades corporate bonds, derivatives and currencies. Prior to joining TAMIC in 1997, Mr. Lin was the senior derivatives trader at Smith Barney. PERFORMANCE UPDATE(1) For the twelve months ended December 31, 2004, Managed Assets Trust returned 9.44%. The fund outperformed its unmanaged benchmark, the Lehman Brothers Government/Credit Bond Index(i), which returned 4.19% for the same period. The fund underperformed its other unmanaged benchmark, the S&P 500 Index(ii), which returned 10.87% for the same period. It also outperformed its Lipper Variable Flexible Portfolio funds category average(2), which was 8.25%. ECONOMIC OVERVIEW The economic expansion entered its fourth year at the close of 2004. Led by strong consumer and business demand, the balance of growth was quite healthy. The employment picture improved during the year, as rising profits led to increased corporate willingness to hire new employees. Strong consumer and business fundamentals appear likely to continue into 2005 and consumer spending looks to strengthen further relative to last year. Inflation began to rise modestly in 2004 as shortages of certain goods and commodities developed around the world. In 2005, inflation pressures look to rise as healthy growth continues to improve corporate pricing power. The ongoing economic recovery and rising price pressures caused the Federal Reserve Board ("Fed")(iii) to institute a series of five 25 basis point(iv) rate hikes, beginning in mid-2004. This trend looks to continue well into 2005. OVERVIEW OF FUND'S EQUITY INVESTMENTS With improving earnings fundamentals, the equity portion of the fund performed well, particularly during the fourth quarter of the year. Energy stocks were among the biggest contributors to results, on the back of historically high oil prices and solid earnings. As investors began to focus their attention on higher quality stocks with solid dividends and strong cash flow, less-cyclical industries, such as foods, chemicals and building materials also realized substantial gains. The outcome of the presidential election removed some uncertainties surrounding the healthcare and defense industries. However, technology stocks were generally weak, despite an impressive start in January 2004. Concerns regarding terrorism, oil prices and weak profits also led to a significant decline in the auto and transportation sector, especially the airlines. In the next several weeks, as retail sales data from the holiday season trickles out, the equity market could potentially experience more volatility as investors reposition their portfolios for the new year. (1) The fund is an underlying investment option of various variable annuity and variable life products. The fund's performance returns do not reflect the deduction of sales charges and expenses imposed in connection with investing in variable annuity contracts, such as administrative fees, account charges and surrender charges, which, if reflected, would reduce the performance of the fund. PAST PERFORMANCE IS NO GUARANTEE OF FUTURE RESULTS. (2) Lipper, Inc. is a major independent mutual-fund tracking organization. Returns are based on the 12-month period ended December 31, 2004, including the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains, if any, calculated among the 78 funds in the fund's Lipper category, and excluding sales charges. 4 OVERVIEW OF FUND'S FIXED INCOME INVESTMENTS Our corporate security selection was the major driver of performance during the period, far exceeding the negative impact of a slight underweighting in the sector. In particular, the portfolio's utility, industrial and financial issues were the best performing industries in our portfolio. The next major driver of performance was our overweighting of mortgage-backed securities ("MBS") versus Treasuries in the benchmark. In anticipation of further curve flattening and higher yields, we shifted the portfolio's overall duration to short of the benchmark as a defensive measure. This adjustment added to returns over the period. From a corporate credit perspective, the portfolio's BBB-rated securities generated the best results. We believe the outlook for a sustained economic recovery should result in further improvement in corporate fundamentals and may result in some modest spread narrowing on selective issuers going forward. The prospect for a further reduction of credit risks makes credit products attractive relative to Treasuries in this environment. In the mortgage sector, MBS outperformed collateralized mortgage-backed securities ("CMBS"), asset-backed securities ("ABS") and Treasuries during the fiscal year. Our discount MBS generated the best total returns for both 15-year and 30-year maturities. Within the portfolio, our Federal National Mortgage Association(v) ("Fannie Mae") 30-year securities were the best performers. This was due to an increase in interest rates, yield curve flattening and a decline in volatility. Our overweighting in MBS versus agency securities also enhanced results. While our overweighting in CMBS was a negative versus MBS, it helped reduce our exposure to the short end of the yield curve. The portfolio's poorest performing sectors were MBS balloons (where the final loan payment is considerably higher than prior payments) and ABS, as both yield curve and spread changes of these securities led to underperformance. Thank you for your investment in the Managed Assets Trust. As ever, we appreciate that you have chosen us to manage your assets and we remain focused on achieving the fund's investment goals.

The fund underperformed its unmanaged benchmark, the Credit Suisse First Boston High Yield Index(i), which returned 11.95% for the same period. It also underperformed the Lipper Variable High Current Yield funds category average(2), which was 9.84%. MARKET/ECONOMIC OVERVIEW Improving credit quality, coupled with strong economic activity, low interest rates and supportive technical factors helped the high yield market sustain the momentum it generated in 2003 and again post double digit returns in 2004. The lowest rated issues within the non-investment grade universe, those rated CCC and below, outperformed again this year, as investors continued to seek higher yields. The fund's more conservative risk weightings and higher cash positions principally led to its underperformance during the fiscal year. CONTRIBUTORS TO PERFORMANCE Portfolio returns were positively impacted by the fund's holdings in chemicals and metals/steel, the best performing sectors in the high yield universe during 2004. These sectors' earnings benefited the most from the expanding economy and the resulting increase in volume and price, which more than offset energy and cost increases. Conversely, holdings in the cable and wireless telecommunication sectors negatively impacted the fund's returns. Cable valuations remained under pressure for most of 2004, driven by intense pricing competition, while rural wireless providers were negatively affected by the Cingular/AT&T Wireless merger. While we believe strong fundamentals and technicals will remain supportive of high yield in 2005, we remain cautious due to historically rich valuations. We are also wary of the potential impact of increased volatility in Treasury rates on the high yield asset class. Thank you for your investment in the High Yield Bond Trust. As ever, we appreciate that you have chosen us to manage your assets and we remain focused on achieving the fund's investment goals. Sincerely, <Table> - -s- Paul A. Mataras -s- David A.

Effective September 1, 2004, the investment advisory fee was revised from the annual rate of 0.75% of the daily net assets of the fund, to a fee calculated at an annual rate in accordance with the following schedule: <Table> <Caption> INVESTMENT AVERAGE DAILY NET ASSETS ADVISORY FEE - ------------------------ ------------ First $1.5 billion.......................................... 0.700% Over $1.5 billion........................................... 0.650% </Table> PERFORMANCE UPDATE(1) For the twelve months ended December 31, 2004, Capital Appreciation Fund returned 19.53%. The fund outperformed its unmanaged benchmarks, the S&P 500 Index(i) and the Russell 2000 Index(ii), which returned 10.87% and 18.33%, respectively, for the same period. The fund also outperformed its Lipper Variable Large-Cap Growth funds category average(2), which was 8.04%. Golfing great Ben Hogan once said, "The greatest pleasure is obtained in improving." I think Mr. Hogan was right; we take great pleasure in sharing with you your fund's improving results. Among the reasons the fund significantly outperformed the S&P 500 Index was our decision to maintain overweight positions in the consumer discretionary and information technology sectors. In addition, the exceptionally strong results posted by a number of our holdings in these two groups boosted returns. Weaker areas of investment included industrials and telecommunications services, where select fund holdings experienced setbacks. I credit the fund's impressive metrics to the outstanding quality and depth of the investment research performed by our analysts. Their work has given us the confidence to invest early and with conviction in some of our best ideas. In fact, our investments in strong performers such as APPLE COMPUTER, INC., EBAY INC. and UNITEDHEALTH GROUP INC., among others, are the result of long-term investment commitments. CONTRIBUTORS TO PERFORMANCE Our investment in Apple Computer, Inc. was the strongest contributor to performance during the period. Apple recently launched one of its most elegant products to date, the new G5 iMac. The early reviews have been overwhelmingly positive and we expect this to be an important product for the company. More importantly, Apple's wildly successful iPod music player continues to be the music-listening device of choice and sales continue to exceed most investors' expectations. Another strong-performing position in the fund was eBay Inc. Its management team, the sheer financial power of its business model and the global proliferation of the "eBay economy" have all continued to impress us. The eBay trading platform is well on its way to enabling the buying and selling of products worldwide with a gross merchandise value ("GMV") in excess of $34 billion dollars. Ebay's own revenues from those sales were in excess of $2.5 billion this year and we expect both to grow rapidly again next year. To give you an idea of the velocity of trade on eBay, a car is sold every six minutes, a digital camera is sold every 14 minutes and a piece of jewelry every eight minutes. Today, over 430,000 people are making a living buying and selling on eBay. Finally, we continue to be impressed with eBay's entire management team and their ability to guide the company's explosive growth.

But, as consumers become increasingly responsible for the first dollars spent on their healthcare needs, it's clear to us that UnitedHealth Group Inc. is winning in the marketplace. The company's flexible plan designs, along with its increasing focus on making healthcare more affordable for larger and larger segments of the population, are a powerful financial combination. Janus' healthcare team continues to do an outstanding job monitoring medical and financial trends as well as anticipating the changes in this emotionally charged space. We continue to have the utmost confidence in Bill Maguire, Steve Hemsley and the entire UnitedHealth management team. Not all of our investments have met our expectations. Drugmaker FOREST LABORATORIES, INC. was a poor performer. While the stock will be faced with some issues over the next several quarters, including product competition and generic challenges to key drugs, we believe that the worst is priced into the stock and have maintained our stake for now. Meanwhile, we liquidated our position in NVIDIA CORP., a stock that was among our biggest detractors. While we like the longer-term prospects for graphic-intensive semiconductor manufacturers, we feel that better opportunities lie elsewhere. We are very pleased with the fund's continued improvement but recognize there is more work to be done. Our investment staff, while gratified, is certainly not satisfied. We can continue to improve and I am confident we will. As the fund's portfolio manager, I remain committed to further repairing the financial fortunes of the shareholders who have had the fortitude to stay invested in the fund and who have hopefully kept investing along the way. Thank you for your investment in the Capital Appreciation Fund. As ever, we appreciate that you have chosen us to manage your assets and we remain focused on achieving the fund's investment goals.

All figures represent past performance and are not a guarantee of future results. Investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate so that an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost.

These yields include both a voluntary waiver and expense reimbursement pursuant to an expense limitation agreement. Absent both the voluntary waiver and expense reimbursement, the seven-day current yield would have been 1.86% and the seven-day effective yield would have been 1.87%. PAST PERFORMANCE IS NO GUARANTEE OF FUTURE RESULTS. THE FUND'S YIELDS WILL VARY. In addition, your investment is neither insured nor guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") or any other government agency. Although the fund seeks to preserve the value of your investment at $1.00 per share, it is possible to lose money by investing in the fund. MARKET/ECONOMIC OVERVIEW As the reporting period began, short term interest rates were at a four decade low. However, as expected, short-term yields moved markedly higher in 2004. This was due to continued broad based improvements in the economy and five interest rate hikes by the Federal Reserve Board ("Fed")(iii). After solid gains during the first three quarters of the year, fourth quarter gross domestic product ("GDP")(iv) is widely expected to mirror the 4% gain experienced in the third quarter of 2004. The labor markets continued to show improvement over the period and oil prices, after rising sharply to record highs in October 2004, reversed course toward the end of the period as forecasted warmer weather and increased reserves brought prices lower. We believe that lower oil prices should help lessen the negative impact to consumers and businesses in the coming months. Overall, inflation remains contained, but it is rising modestly at the core level. CONTRIBUTORS TO PERFORMANCE Throughout much of the reporting period, we remained cautious in our maturity stance for the fund. This strategy was used as we anticipated more attractive extension opportunities in the rising interest rate environment. We believe money market yields should continue to rise as the Fed moves short-term interest rates towards a more neutral policy level. Thank you for your investment in the Money Market Portfolio. As ever, we appreciate that you have chosen us to manage your assets and we remain focused on achieving the fund's investment goals.

This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. This example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested on July 1, 2004 and held for the six months ended December 31, 2004. ACTUAL EXPENSES The table below titled "Based on Actual Total Return" provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information provided in this table, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. To estimate the expenses you paid on your account, divide your ending account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 ending account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During the Period". - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- BASED ON ACTUAL TOTAL RETURN(1) <Table> <Caption> EXPENSES BEGINNING ENDING ANNUALIZED PAID ACTUAL TOTAL ACCOUNT ACCOUNT EXPENSE DURING THE RETURN(2) VALUE VALUE RATIO PERIOD(3) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Managed Assets Trust........................ 6.87% $1,000.00 $1,068.70 0.59% $3.07 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ High Yield Bond Trust....................... 7.95 1,000.00 1,079.50 0.56 2.93 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Capital Appreciation Fund................... 13.99 1,000.00 1,139.90 0.79 4.25 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Money Market Portfolio...................... 0.67 1,000.00 1,006.70 0.40 2.02 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ </Table> (1) For the six months ended December 31, 2004.

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 voluntary fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. In the absence of voluntary fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements, the total return would have been lower. (3) Expenses (net of voluntary fee waiver and/or expense reimbursement) are equal to the Fund's 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 366. 18 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- FUND EXPENSES (UNAUDITED) (CONTINUED) HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES The table below titled "Based on Hypothetical Total Return" provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5.00% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund's actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use the information provided in this table to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare the 5.00% hypothetical example relating to the Fund with the 5.00% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. Please note that the expenses shown in the table below are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as front-end or back-end sales charges (loads). Therefore, the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transaction costs were included, your costs would have been higher. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- BASED ON HYPOTHETICAL TOTAL RETURN(1) <Table> <Caption> HYPOTHETICAL EXPENSES ANNUALIZED BEGINNING ENDING ANNUALIZED PAID TOTAL ACCOUNT ACCOUNT EXPENSE DURING THE RETURN VALUE VALUE RATIO PERIOD(2) - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Managed Assets Trust.......................... 5.00% $1,000.00 $1,022.17 0.59% $3.00 - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- High Yield Bond Trust......................... 5.00 1,000.00 1,022.32 0.56 2.85 - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Capital Appreciation Fund..................... 5.00 1,000.00 1,021.17 0.79 4.01 - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Money Market Portfolio........................ 5.00 1,000.00 1,023.13 0.40 2.03 - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- </Table> (1) For the six months ended December 31, 2004.

SEE NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. 50 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 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 a minus (-) sign to show relative standings within the major rating categories. <Table> 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 differs from the highest rated issue only in a small degree. A -- Bonds rated "A" have a strong capacity to pay interest and repay principal although it is somewhat more susceptible to the adverse effects of changes in circumstances and economic conditions than debt in higher rated categories. BBB -- Bonds rated "BBB" have 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 for bonds in higher rated categories. BB, B -- Bonds rated "BB", "B", "CCC" and "CC" are regarded, on CCC and balance, as predominantly speculative with respect to CC capacity to pay interest and repay principal in accordance with the terms of the obligation. "BB" represents the lowest degree of speculation 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. C -- Bonds rated "C" are income bonds on which no interest is being paid. D -- Bonds rated "D" are in default, and payment of interest and/or repayment of principal is in arrears. </Table> Moody's Investors Service ("Moody's") -- Numerical modifiers 1, 2, and 3 may be applied to each generic rating from "Aa" to "Caa", where 1 is the highest and 3 the lowest rating within its generic category. <Table> 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" are judged to have 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; that is, they are neither highly protected nor poorly secured. Interest payment 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. These bonds lack outstanding investment characteristics and may 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 thereby 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 issues may be in default, or present elements of danger may exist with respect to principal or interest. Ca -- Bonds rated "Ca" are speculative in a high degree. Such issues are often in default or have other marked shortcomings. C -- Bonds rated "C" are the lowest rated class of bonds, and issues so rated can be regarded as having extremely poor prospects of ever attaining any real investment standing. NR -- Indicates that the bond is not rated by Standard & Poor's or Moody's. </Table> 51 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- STATEMENTS OF ASSETS AND LIABILITIES DECEMBER 31, 2004 <Table> <Caption> MANAGED HIGH YIELD CAPITAL MONEY ASSETS BOND APPRECIATION MARKET TRUST TRUST FUND PORTFOLIO - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ASSETS: Investments, at cost.......................... $259,985,490 $ 89,973,701 $ 611,744,227 -- Short-term investments, at cost............... 5,624,372 7,701,000 48,618,000 $303,776,240 Foreign currency, at cost..................... 9 78,927 -- -- - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Investments, at value......................... $290,707,584 $ 97,587,427 $ 998,228,002 -- Short-term investments, at value.............. 5,624,366 7,701,000 48,618,000 $303,776,240 Foreign currency, at value.................... 12 78,345 -- -- Cash.......................................... 735 48 2,556 1,217 Dividends and interest receivable............. 1,225,289 1,653,232 244,660 48,817 Receivable for open forward foreign currency contracts (Notes 1 and 3).................. -- 2,875 -- -- Receivable for Fund shares sold............... -- 18,985 -- 57,890 Prepaid expenses.............................. 3,986 729 4,806 875 Other receivables............................. 2,581 -- -- -- - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- TOTAL ASSETS.................................. 297,564,553 107,042,641 1,047,098,024 303,885,039 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- LIABILITIES: Payable for securities purchased.............. -- 414,271 -- -- Investment advisory fees payable.............. 111,370 37,004 608,321 79,184 Administrative fees payable................... 28,510 4,889 53,498 15,632 Payable for Fund shares reacquired............ 110,971 -- 3,967,191 546,348 Dividends payable............................. -- -- -- 234,231 Payable to broker -- variation margin......... 3,499 -- -- -- Trustees' fees payable........................ 2,500 2,000 2,100 2,000 Accrued expenses.............................. 58,752 45,518 123,241 60,948 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- TOTAL LIABILITIES............................. 315,602 503,682 4,754,351 938,343 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- TOTAL NET ASSETS................................ $297,248,951 $106,538,959 $1,042,343,673 $302,946,696 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NET ASSETS: Paid-in capital (Note 4)...................... $264,969,046 $ 99,333,222 $1,084,901,001 $302,946,536 Undistributed (overdistributed) net investment income..................................... 48,121 (28,233) -- 7,965 Accumulated net realized gain (loss) from investment transactions and foreign currencies................................. 1,512,373 (379,741) (429,048,638) (7,805) Net unrealized appreciation of investments, futures contracts, and foreign currencies................................. 30,719,411 7,613,711 386,491,310 -- - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- TOTAL NET ASSETS................................ $297,248,951 $106,538,959 $1,042,343,673 $302,946,696 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SHARES OUTSTANDING.............................. 17,832,560 10,751,548 15,738,433 302,946,536 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NET ASSET VALUE, PER SHARE...................... $16.67 $9.91 $66.23 $1.00 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- </Table> SEE NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. 52 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- STATEMENTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2004 <Table> <Caption> MANAGED HIGH YIELD CAPITAL MONEY ASSETS BOND APPRECIATION MARKET TRUST TRUST FUND PORTFOLIO - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ INVESTMENT INCOME: Interest............................................ $ 4,575,090 $7,461,887 $ 707,757 $4,725,801 Dividends........................................... 3,831,824 27,624 5,699,663 -- Less: Foreign withholding tax.......................

SEE NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. 59 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The Managed Assets Trust ("MAT"), High Yield Bond Trust ("HYBT"), Capital Appreciation Fund ("CAF") and Money Market Portfolio ("MMP") (collectively, "Fund(s)") are each a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as diversified, open-end management investment companies. Shares of the Funds 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 and are in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). Estimates and assumptions are required to be made regarding assets, liabilities and changes in net assets resulting from operations when financial statements are prepared. Changes in the economic environment, financial markets and any other parameters used in determining these estimates could cause actual results to differ. (A) INVESTMENT VALUATION. Securities traded on national securities markets are valued at the closing prices on such markets. Securities for which no sales price was reported and U.S. government agencies and obligations are valued at the mean between the quoted bid and asked prices or on the basis of quotations received from unaffiliated reputable brokers or other recognized sources. Securities, other than U.S. government agencies and obligations, that have a maturity of more than 60 days are valued at prices based on market quotations for securities of similar type, yield and maturity. Securities listed on the NASDAQ National Market System for which market quotations are available are valued at the official closing price or, if there is no official closing price on that day, at the last sale price. When market quotations or official closing 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 (for example, a foreign exchange or market), but before each Fund calculates its net asset value, 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 maturing within 60 days are valued at amortized cost, which approximates value. (B) REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS. When entering into repurchase agreements, it is the Funds' policy that a custodian takes possession of the underlying collateral securities, the 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 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) FUTURES CONTRACTS. The Funds may enter into futures contracts to the extent permitted by their investment policies and objectives. Upon entering into a 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 futures contracts. Subsequent payments, which are dependent on the daily fluctuations in the value of the underlying financial instrument, are made or received by the Funds each day (daily variation margin) and are recorded as unrealized gains or losses until the contracts are closed. When the contracts are closed, the Funds record a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the proceeds from (or cost of) the closing transactions and the Fund's basis in the contracts. The Funds enter into such contracts typically to hedge a portion of the portfolio. The risks associated with entering into 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 futures contracts involves the risk that the Funds could lose more than the original margin deposit and subsequent payments required for a futures transaction. (D) FORWARD FOREIGN CURRENCY CONTRACTS. Certain Funds may enter into forward foreign currency contracts. 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 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 or offset. The Funds bear the market risk that arises from changes in foreign currency exchange rates and the credit risk should a counterparty fail to meet the terms of such contracts. 60 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) (E) CREDIT AND MARKET RISK. HYBT invests in high-yield instruments that are subject to certain credit and market risks. The yields of high-yield debt obligations reflect, among other things, perceived credit risk. The Fund's investment in securities rated below investment-grade typically involves risks not associated with higher rated securities including, among others, greater risk of timely and ultimate payment of interest and principal, greater market price volatility and less liquid secondary market trading. (F) 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. (G) FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION. The books and records of the Funds are maintained in U.S. dollars. Transactions denominated in foreign currencies are recorded at the current prevailing exchange rates. All assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollar amounts at the current exchange rates at the end of the period. Translation gains or losses resulting from changes in the exchange rates during the reporting period and realized gains and losses on the settlement of foreign currency transactions are reported in the statement of operations for the current period. The Funds do not isolate that portion of realized gains and losses on investments in securities, which are due to changes in the foreign exchange rates from that which is due to changes in market prices of equity securities. (H) DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS. Dividends from net investment income for MAT, HYBT and CAF, if any, are declared on an annual basis. Dividends on the shares of MMP are declared each business day to shareholders of record that day, and are paid on the last business day of the month. Distributions of net realized gains to shareholders of the Funds, if any, are declared at least annually. Dividends and 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. (I) 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. Under the applicable foreign tax law, a withholding tax may be imposed on interest, dividends and capital gains at various rates. (J) RECLASSIFICATION. GAAP requires that certain components of net assets be adjusted to reflect permanent differences between financial and tax reporting. Accordingly, during the current year, $15,779 has been reclassified between undistributed net investment income and accumulated net realized gain from investment transactions as a result of permanent differences attributable to the tax treatment of distributions from real estate investment trust securities for MAT. Additionally, $215,382 has been reclassified between paid-in capital and accumulated net realized loss from investment transactions as a result of other permanent differences between book and tax, and $1,153 has been reclassified between undistributed net investment income and accumulated net realized loss from investment transactions due to differences between book foreign currency transactions treated as ordinary income for tax purposes and income from mortgage backed securities treated as capital gains for tax purposes for HYBT. Also $1,479,979 has been reclassified between paid-in capital and net investment loss due to a net operating loss and $16,222 has been reclassified between net investment loss and accumulated net realized loss from investment transactions due to differences between book foreign currency transactions treated as ordinary income for tax purposes for CAF. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or net asset values per share. 2. INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES Travelers Asset Management International Company LLC ("TAMIC"), an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Citigroup Inc. ("Citigroup"), acts as investment adviser to MAT, HYBT, CAF and MMP. MAT and MMP pay TAMIC an investment advisory fee calculated at the annual rate of 0.50% and 0.3233%, respectively, of their average daily net assets. Prior to September 1, 2004, CAF paid TAMIC an investment advisory fee calculated at the annual rate of 0.75% of its average daily net assets. HYBT pays TAMIC an investment advisory fee calculated at an annual rate of 0.50% on the first $50 million, 0.40% on the next $100 million, 0.30% on the next $100 million and 0.25% on the amount over $250 million of the average daily net assets of HYBT. These fees are calculated daily and paid monthly. 61 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) During the year ended December 31, 2004, TAMIC reimbursed HYBT in the amount of $75,068 for losses incurred resulting from violations of the Fund's investment restrictions. Effective September 1, 2004, the investment advisory fee for CAF was revised from the annual rate of 0.75% of the daily net assets of the fund, to a fee calculated at an annual rate in accordance with the following schedule: <Table> <Caption> INVESTMENT AVERAGE DAILY NET ASSETS ADVISORY FEE - ------------------------ ------------ First $1.5 billion.......................................... 0.700% Over $1.5 billion........................................... 0.650% </Table> TAMIC has a sub-advisory agreement with The Travelers Investment Management Company ("TIMCO"), another indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Citigroup. Pursuant to the sub-advisory agreement, TIMCO is responsible for the day-to-day portfolio operations and investment decisions for the equity portion of MAT. As a result, TAMIC pays TIMCO, as sub-adviser, an advisory fee calculated at an annual rate of 0.25% of the average daily net assets of MAT. TAMIC also has a sub-advisory agreement with Janus Capital Management LLC ("Janus"). Pursuant to the sub-advisory agreement, Janus is responsible for the day-to-day portfolio operations and investment decisions for CAF. As a result, prior to September 1, 2004, TAMIC paid Janus, as sub-adviser, an advisory fee calculated at an annual rate of 0.55% on the first $100 million, 0.50% on the next $400 million and 0.45% on the amount over $500 million of the average daily net assets of CAF. Effective September 1, 2004, the advisory fee TAMIC pays Janus was revised to a fee calculated at an annual rate of 0.50% on the first $100 million, 0.45% on the next $400 million, 0.40% on the next $1 billion and 0.35% on the amount over $1.5 billion of the average daily net assets of CAF. The Travelers Insurance Company ("TIC"), another indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Citigroup, acts as administrator to the Funds. The Funds pay TIC an administration fee calculated at an annual rate of 0.06% of the average daily net assets of each respective Fund. This fee is calculated daily and paid monthly. TIC has entered into a sub-administrative services agreement with Smith Barney Fund Management LLC ("SBFM"), another indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Citigroup. TIC pays SBFM, as sub-administrator, a fee calculated at an annual rate of 0.02% of the average daily net assets of each Fund, plus $30,000 per Fund, subject to a maximum of 0.06% of each Fund's average daily net assets. During the year ended December 31, 2004, the Funds had in place contractual expense limitations of 1.25% for each of the Funds MAT, HYBT and CAF and 0.40% for MMP. As a result, TIC has agreed to reimburse MMP for expenses in the amount of $56,597. These expense limitations are renewed annually and can be terminated at any time by TIC with 60 days' notice. During the year ended December 31, 2004, SBFM voluntarily waived a portion of its fee in the amount of $1,726, $1,679, $1,698 and $1,726 for MAT, HYBT, CAF and MMP, respectively. In addition, for the year ended December 31, 2004, SBFM reimbursed expenses in the amount of $31,759 for each of the Funds MAT, HYBT and CAF, in connection with the overpayment of transfer agent fees relating to the period from June 1999 through June 2004. Citicorp Trust Bank, fsb. ("CTB"), another subsidiary of Citigroup, acts as the Funds' transfer agent. For the year ended December 31, 2004, each Fund paid transfer agent fees of $2,500 to CTB. One Trustee and all officers of the Funds are employees of Citigroup or its affiliates and do not receive compensation from the Funds. 3.

(3) The difference between book-basis and tax-basis unrealized appreciation is attributable primarily to the tax deferral of losses on wash sales. 6. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION In connection with an investigation previously disclosed by Citigroup, the Staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") has notified Citigroup Asset Management ("CAM"), the Citigroup business unit that includes the funds' investment manager and other investment advisory companies; Citicorp Trust Bank ("CTB"), an affiliate of CAM; Thomas W. Jones, the former CEO of CAM; and three other individuals, one of whom is an employee and two of whom are 64 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) former employees of CAM, that the SEC Staff is considering recommending a civil injunctive action and/or an administrative proceeding against each of them relating to the creation and operation of an internal transfer agent unit to serve various CAM-managed funds. In 1999, CTB entered the transfer agent business. CTB hired an unaffiliated subcontractor to perform some of the transfer agent services. The subcontractor, in exchange, had signed a separate agreement with CAM in 1998 that guaranteed investment management revenue to CAM and investment banking revenue to a CAM affiliate. The subcontractor's business was later taken over by PFPC Inc., and at that time the revenue guarantee was eliminated and a one-time payment was made by the subcontractor to a CAM affiliate. CAM did not disclose the revenue guarantee when the boards of various CAM-managed funds hired CTB as transfer agent. Nor did CAM disclose to the boards of the various CAM-managed funds the one-time payment received by the CAM affiliate when it was made. As previously disclosed, CAM has already paid the applicable funds, primarily through voluntary fee waivers, a total of approximately $17 million (plus interest), which is the amount of the revenue received by Citigroup relating to the revenue guarantee. In addition, the SEC Staff has indicated that it is considering recommending action based on the adequacy of the disclosures made to the fund boards that approved the transfer agency arrangement, CAM's initiation and operation of, and compensation for, the transfer agent business and CAM's retention of, and agreements with, the subcontractor. Citigroup is cooperating fully in the SEC's investigation and is seeking to resolve the matter in discussions with the SEC Staff. On January 20, 2005, Citigroup stated that it had established an aggregate reserve of $196 million ($25 million in the third quarter of 2004 and $171 million in the fourth quarter of 2004) related to its discussions with the SEC Staff. Settlement negotiations are ongoing and any settlement of this matter with the SEC will require approval by the Citigroup Board and acceptance by the Commission. Unless and until any settlement is consummated, there can be no assurance that any amount reserved by Citigroup will be distributed. Nor is there at this time any certainty as to how the proceeds of any settlement would be distributed, to whom any such distribution would be made, the methodology by which such distribution would be allocated, and when such distribution would 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. SUBSEQUENT EVENT On January 31, 2005, Citigroup announced that it has reached an agreement with MetLife, Inc. ("MetLife") to sell Citigroup's life insurance and annuity businesses ("Travelers Life & Annuity") to MetLife. As part of this transaction, TAMIC currently an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Citigroup, would become an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of MetLife. TAMIC is the investment adviser to the Funds. The transaction is subject to certain regulatory approvals, as well as other customary conditions to closing. The transaction is expected to close this summer. In connection with this transaction, the Trust's Board of Trustees will be asked to approve new investment advisory and administrative services contracts, and, to the extent required by law, variable annuity and variable life contract owners, who beneficially own the shares of the funds, will be asked to approve new investment advisory agreements. 65 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM THE SHAREHOLDERS AND BOARD OF TRUSTEES OF MANAGED ASSETS TRUST, HIGH YIELD BOND TRUST, CAPITAL APPRECIATION FUND AND MONEY MARKET PORTFOLIO: We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the schedules of investments, of Managed Assets Trust, High Yield Bond Trust, Capital Appreciation Fund and Money Market Portfolio ("Funds") as of December 31, 2004, 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 in the five-year period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Funds' 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, 2004, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers or by other appropriate auditing procedures where 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 positions of Managed Assets Trust, High Yield Bond Trust, Capital Appreciation Fund and Money Market Portfolio as of December 31, 2004, and the results of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in their net assets for each of the years in the two-year period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the years in the five-year period then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

The fund outperformed its unmanaged benchmark, the Merrill Lynch U.S. Treasury/Agency Master Index(i), which returned 3.42%, for the same period. The fund underperformed its other unmanaged composite benchmark, the Merrill Lynch U.S. Treasuries 15+ Years/Merrill Lynch Mortgage Master Index(ii), which returned 6.53%, for the same period. The fund outperformed the fund's Lipper Variable General U.S. Government funds category average(2), which was 3.92%. MARKET/ECONOMIC OVERVIEW The economic expansion entered its fourth year at the close of 2004. Led by strong consumer and business demand, the balance of growth was quite healthy. The employment picture improved during the year, as rising profits led to increased corporate willingness to hire new employees. Strong consumer and business fundamentals appear likely to continue into 2005 and consumer spending looks to strengthen further relative to last year. Inflation began to rise modestly in 2004 as shortages of certain goods and commodities developed around the world. In 2005, inflation pressures look to rise as healthy growth continues to improve corporate pricing power. The ongoing economic recovery and rising price pressures caused the Federal Reserve Board ("Fed")(iii) to institute a series of five 25 basis point(iv) rate hikes, beginning in mid-2004. This trend looks to continue well into 2005. CONTRIBUTORS TO PERFORMANCE In the credit market, the mortgage sector posted the second highest return behind corporate securities during the period. Mortgage-backed securities ("MBS") outperformed collateralized mortgage-backed securities ("CMBS"), asset-backed securities, and Treasuries. 15-years MBS underperformed 30-years as the yield curve(v) flattened and 3-year Treasuries were the worst performer on the yield curve. Our discount MBS generated the best total returns for both 15-year and 30-year maturities. Within the portfolio, our Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation(vi) ("Freddie Mac") and Federal National Mortgage Association(vii) ("Fannie Mae") 30-year securities were the best performers, as 30-years outperformed 15-year absolute returns. This occurred due to an increase in interest rates, yield curve flattening, and a decline in volatility. Our discount Government National Mortgage Association(viii) ("Ginnie Mae") position outperformed conventional 30-year maturities. In addition, overall performance was enhanced by an overweight in discount 30-year securities versus 15-year issues with high coupons. Our underweight in Treasuries and elimination of all Treasuries with maturities less than five years also contributed to results. An overweight in agency securities versus Treasuries was also beneficial, despite the volatility in agency spreads during the fiscal year. While our overweight in CMBS was a negative versus MBS, it helped reduce our exposure to the short end of the yield curve. The portfolio's poorest performing sectors were MBS balloons (where the final loan payment is considerably higher than prior payments) and CMOs, as both yield curve and spread changes of these securities led to underperformance.

The fund's performance returns do not reflect the deduction of sales charges and expenses imposed in connection with investing in variable annuity contracts, such as administrative fees, account charges and surrender charges, which, if reflected, would reduce the performance of the fund.

The fund underperformed its unmanaged benchmark, the S&P 500 Index(i), which returned 10.87% for the same period. It also underperformed its Lipper Variable Specialty/Miscellaneous funds category average(2), which was 7.82%. The fiscal year was one in which energy and other commodity-related, or so-called "dirtier" industries from a social investing standpoint, outperformed significantly as a result of several factors. Energy and commodity supply had been constrained as a result of the economic downturn. However, demand, particularly from fast growing economies such as China, grew rapidly at the same time that geopolitical issues in the Middle East caused lower oil inventories and higher premiums for the commodity. The fund's underperformance relative to its benchmark can be primarily attributed to lower exposure to energy and commodity-related sectors. In addition, the fund's larger exposure and weak stock selection in underperforming sectors such as technology and consumer discretionary detracted from results. However, the fund's performance was helped by strong stock selection in the financial, healthcare, and transportation sectors. MARKET/ECONOMIC OVERVIEW During 2004, domestic economic growth continued to show clear signs of improvement but the stock market traded in a narrow range due to several issues. The U.S. presidential election, the war in Iraq, energy prices, trade imbalances, U.S. dollar depreciation, lackluster job growth, and a growing budget deficit took precedence over positive factors such as continued gross domestic product ("GDP")(ii) growth and strong corporate earnings. However, following the resolution of the presidential election and, combined with declining oil prices, stocks moved sharply higher in the fourth quarter. We believe that interest rates and earnings will be the main determinants of stock prices in 2005. We continue to see the Federal Reserve Board ("Fed")(iii) raising interest rates in a measured fashion throughout the first part of the year. The Fed will then likely begin to moderate this stance to provide a balance between a growing economy and a very interest rate sensitive consumer. This scenario has historically been a good environment for stocks in general and high quality large cap growth stocks in particular. We feel that a transition in equity marketplace leadership is starting to take hold as fundamental factors begin to take precedence in the later stages of the current economic recovery. With our focus on fundamental investing, we believe shareholders can participate in the potential growth and revaluation of companies that offer the most attractive attributes. With interest rates still at low levels, we feel that companies that are competitively well positioned and conservatively financed offer compelling investment opportunities. CONTRIBUTORS TO PERFORMANCE The biggest contributor to the fund's performance for the period was its position in financial services stock SLM CORP. SLM Corp.'s shares benefited from the U.S. presidential election as the Kerry platform was viewed as potentially detrimental to the student loan business model. The fund's other two top contributors were TYCO INTERNATIONAL LTD. in the industrials sector and NETWORK APPLIANCE, INC. in the information technology sector. Tyco International Ltd. has benefited from the infusion of a new management team. The company has restructured its operations and balance sheet significantly and is now better positioned to benefit from the economic recovery. Network Appliance, Inc. continues to gain market share and grow at a very strong rate in its storage systems business. (1) The fund is an underlying investment option of various variable annuity and variable life products. The fund's performance returns do not reflect the deduction of sales charges and expenses imposed in connection with investing in variable annuity contracts, such as administrative fees, account charges and surrender charges, which, if reflected, would reduce the performance of the fund. PAST PERFORMANCE IS NO GUARANTEE OF FUTURE RESULTS. (2) Lipper, Inc. is a major independent mutual-fund tracking organization. Returns are based on the 12-month period ended December 31, 2004, including the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains, if any, calculated among the 136 funds in the fund's Lipper category, and excluding sales charges. 72 On the negative side, the largest single detractor from performance during the period was INTEL CORP. in the information technology sector. Intel suffered a considerable drop in its share price due to concerns that the recovery in technology spending would not be as robust as investors had expected. We continue to own Intel as we expect the longer term growth for the company to outweigh this short term issue. The other two largest detractors from performance were PFIZER INC. and VISHAY INTERTECHNOLOGY, INC. Pfizer's shares fell sharply as a result of its disclosure of research that showed an increase in heart attacks in patients who were using an elevated dosage of their product Celebrex. We continue to own Pfizer, as we believe the stock has sold off more than the situation warrants. However, we'll continue to monitor the issue closely. Vishay suffered the same issues confronted by Intel and we also expect its longer term growth potential and high quality franchise outweigh the short term issues confronting the company. In summary, our core philosophy continues to be based on investing in leading companies across a broad cross section of sectors and industries. Our selection process focuses on companies that we perceive to have significant advantages and excellent competitive positions in the marketplace. With interest rates still at low historical levels, we believe that well positioned and conservatively financed companies could once again sell at a premium to the overall market.

Effective December 1, 2004, the investment advisory fee was revised from the annual rate of 0.75% of the average daily net assets of the fund to a fee calculated at an annual rate in accordance with the following schedule: <Table> <Caption> INVESTMENT AVERAGE DAILY NET ASSETS ADVISORY FEE - ------------------------ ------------ First $250 million.......................................... 0.750% Next $250 million........................................... 0.700% Next $500 million........................................... 0.675% Next $1 billion............................................. 0.650% Amounts over $2 billion..................................... 0.600% </Table> PERFORMANCE UPDATE(1) For the twelve months ended December 31, 2004, Pioneer Fund Portfolio returned 11.13%. The fund outperformed its unmanaged benchmark, the S&P 500 Index(i), which returned 10.87% for the same period. They also outperformed the fund's Lipper Variable Large-Cap Core funds category average(2), which was 8.59%. MARKET/ECONOMIC OVERVIEW A quick resolution to the presidential election, generally upbeat economic news, a strong bond market, and the absence of an "external shock" helped the U.S. stock market break out of its year-long trading range and rally sharply during the fourth quarter of 2004. For the year as a whole, the broad market, as measured by the S&P 500 Index, returned 10.87%. Our outlook on the economy over the next two years is positive and, as a result, we think there will continue to be good opportunities for profitable investment in stocks. We're monitoring, among other factors, the interest rate scenario and the probability of further rate increases, as well as the dollar weakness and its impact on both U.S. and international companies. At the same time, we're closely following the possibility of profit-taking and a rotation out of cyclical stocks and industrials into consumer, healthcare, and technology companies. As always, we'll strive to position the fund to capitalize on these trends and will remain substantially fully invested at all times. CONTRIBUTORS TO PERFORMANCE Both security selection and sector weighting decisions contributed positively to performance during the fiscal year. From a stock selection perspective, the fund's holdings in the healthcare and industrials sectors generated the strongest results, while selection in consumer staples and financials also contributed materially. In healthcare, the portfolio benefited from gains by JOHNSON & JOHNSON, ABBOTT LABORATORIES, and ROCHE HOLDING AG. In the industrials sector, our holdings in machinery companies CATERPILLAR INC. and DEERE & CO. proved beneficial, as did our overweight in heavy truck manufacturer, PACCAR INC. In the road & rail industry, railroad NORFOLK SOUTHERN CORP. reported strong earnings and the fund's overweight position in the stock provided an additional boost to relative performance. In financials, T. ROWE PRICE GROUP INC. was strong, due in part to its solid third quarter earnings. The company posted an 11% annualized organic growth figure and is currently hiring more employees to keep up with the successful growth of assets under management. Strong returns from MERRILL LYNCH & CO., INC., STATE STREET CORP., and THE BANK OF NEW YORK CO., INC. also enhanced results. (1) The fund is an underlying investment option of various variable annuity and variable life products. The fund's performance returns do not reflect the deduction of sales charges and expenses imposed in connection with investing in variable annuity contracts, such as administrative fees, account charges and surrender charges, which, if reflected, would reduce the performance of the fund. PAST PERFORMANCE IS NO GUARANTEE OF FUTURE RESULTS. (2) Lipper, Inc. is a major independent mutual-fund tracking organization. Returns are based on the 12-month period ended December 31, 2004, including the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains, if any, calculated among the 216 funds in the fund's Lipper category, and excluding sales charges. 76 Conversely, returns were held back slightly by stock selection in the telecommunication services and utilities sectors. In telecommunications, both BELLSOUTH CORP. and SBC COMMUNICATIONS INC. underperformed the broader sector on a relative basis. Thank you for your investment in the Pioneer Fund Portfolio. As ever, we appreciate that you have chosen us to manage your assets and we remain focused on achieving the fund's investment goals. <Table> Respectfully Submitted, /s/ John Carey /s/ Walter Hunnewell, Jr. John A.

This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. This example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested on July 1, 2004 and held for the six months ended December 31, 2004. ACTUAL EXPENSES The table below titled "Based on Actual Total Return" provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information provided in this table, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. To estimate the expenses you paid on your account, divide your ending account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 ending account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During the Period". - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- BASED ON ACTUAL TOTAL RETURN(1) <Table> <Caption> EXPENSES BEGINNING ENDING ANNUALIZED PAID ACTUAL TOTAL ACCOUNT ACCOUNT EXPENSE DURING THE RETURN(2) VALUE VALUE RATIO PERIOD(3) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ U.S. Government Securities Portfolio........ 6.19% $1,000.00 $1,061.90 0.40% $2.07 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Social Awareness Stock Portfolio............ 6.57 1,000.00 1,065.70 0.69 3.58 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Pioneer Fund Portfolio...................... 9.13 1,000.00 1,091.30 0.82 4.31 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ </Table> (1) For the six months ended December 31, 2004. (2) Assumes reinvestment of dividends and capital gain 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 voluntary fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. In the absence of voluntary fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements, the total return would have been lower. (3) Expenses (net of voluntary fee waiver and/or expense reimbursements) are equal to the Fund's 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 366. 80 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- FUND EXPENSES (UNAUDITED) (CONTINUED) HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES The table below titled "Based on Hypothetical Total Return" provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5.00% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund's actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use the information provided in this table to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare the 5.00% hypothetical example relating to the Fund with the 5.00% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. Please note that the expenses shown in the table below are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as front-end or back-end sales charges (loads). Therefore, the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transaction costs were included, your costs would have been higher. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- BASED ON HYPOTHETICAL TOTAL RETURN(1) <Table> <Caption> HYPOTHETICAL EXPENSES ANNUALIZED BEGINNING ENDING ANNUALIZED PAID TOTAL ACCOUNT ACCOUNT EXPENSE DURING THE RETURN VALUE VALUE RATIO PERIOD(2) - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- U.S. Government Securities Portfolio.......... 5.00% $1,000.00 $1,023.13 0.40% $2.03 - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Social Awareness Stock Portfolio.............. 5.00 1,000.00 1,021.67 0.69 3.51 - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Pioneer Fund Portfolio........................ 5.00 1,000.00 1,021.01 0.82 4.17 - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- </Table> (1) For the six months ended December 31, 2004.

ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The U.S. Government Securities Portfolio ("USGS"), Social Awareness Stock Portfolio ("SAS") and Pioneer Fund Portfolio ("PFP") (collectively, "Fund(s)") are separate diversified investment funds of The Travelers Series Trust ("Trust"). The Trust is a Massachusetts business trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, 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 and are in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). Estimates and assumptions are required to be made regarding assets, liabilities and changes in net assets resulting from operations when financial statements are prepared. Changes in the economic environment, financial markets and any other parameters used in determining these estimates could cause actual results to differ. (A) INVESTMENT VALUATION. Securities traded on national securities markets are valued at the closing prices on such markets. Securities for which no sales price was reported and U.S. government agencies and obligations are valued at the mean between the last reported bid and asked prices or on the basis of quotations received from unaffiliated reputable brokers or other recognized sources. Securities, other than U.S. government agencies and obligations, that have a maturity of more than 60 days are valued at prices based on market quotations for securities of similar type, yield and maturity. Securities listed on the NASDAQ National Market System for which market quotations are available are valued at the official closing price or, if there is no official closing price on that day, at the last sale price. When market quotations or official closing 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 each Fund calculates its net asset value, 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 maturing within 60 days are valued at amortized cost, which approximates value. (B) REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS. When entering into repurchase agreements, it is the Funds' policy that a custodian takes possession of the underlying collateral securities, the 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 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) SECURITIES TRADED ON A TO-BE-ANNOUNCED BASIS. The Funds may trade securities on a to-be-announced ("TBA") basis. In a TBA transaction, the Funds commit to purchasing or selling securities, for which specific information is not yet known, particularly the face amount and maturity date in U.S. government agency mortgage pass-through transactions. Securities purchased on a TBA basis are not settled until they are delivered to the Funds, normally 15 to 45 days later. Beginning on the date the Funds enter into a TBA transaction, cash, U.S. government securities or other liquid high-grade debt obligations are segregated in an amount equal in value to the purchase price of the TBA security. These transactions are subject to market fluctuations and their current value is determined in the same manner as for other securities. (D) MORTGAGE DOLLAR ROLLS. The Funds enter into dollar rolls in which the Funds sell mortgage-backed securities for delivery in the current month and simultaneously contract to repurchase substantially similar (same type, coupon and maturity) securities to settle on a specified future date. During the roll period, the Funds forgo principal and interest paid on the securities. The Funds are compensated by a fee paid by the counterparty, often in the form of a drop in the repurchase price of the securities. Dollar rolls are accounted for as financing arrangements; the fee is accrued into interest income ratably over the term of the dollar roll and any gain or loss on the roll is deferred and realized upon disposition of the rolled security. Dollar roll transactions involve the risk that the market value of the securities sold by the Funds may decline below the repurchase price of the similar securities. 102 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) (E) 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 for both financial reporting and income tax purposes. (F) DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS. Dividends from net investment income and distributions of net realized gains to shareholders of the Funds, if any, are declared at least annually. Dividends and 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. (G) 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. Under the applicable foreign tax law, a withholding tax may be imposed on interest, dividends and capital gains at various rates. (H) RECLASSIFICATIONS. GAAP requires that certain components of net assets be adjusted to reflect permanent differences between financial and tax reporting. Accordingly, during the current year, $75,143 has been reclassified between accumulated net realized gain from investment transactions and undistributed net investment income due to book income from mortgage backed securities treated as capital gains for tax purposes for USGS. Additionally, $630 has been reclassified between paid-in capital and undistributed net investment income due to permanent differences attributable to a taxable overdistribution of net investment income for PFP. There were no reclassifications for SAS during the current year. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or net asset values per share. 2. INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES Travelers Asset Management International Company LLC ("TAMIC"), an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Citigroup Inc., ("Citigroup"), acts as investment adviser to USGS and PFP. USGS and PFP pay TAMIC an investment advisory fee calculated at the annual rate of 0.3233% and 0.75% of its average daily net assets, respectively. These fees are calculated daily and paid monthly. Effective December 1, 2004, the investment advisory fee for PFP was revised from the annual rate of 0.75% of the average daily net assets of the fund to a fee calculated at an annual rate in accordance with the following schedule: <Table> <Caption> INVESTMENT AVERAGE DAILY NET ASSETS ADVISORY FEE - ------------------------ ------------ First $250 million.......................................... 0.750% Next $250 million........................................... 0.700% Next $500 million........................................... 0.675% Next $1 billion............................................. 0.650% Amounts over $2 billion..................................... 0.600% </Table> Smith Barney Fund Management LLC ("SBFM") acts as investment manager and adviser to SAS. SAS pays SBFM an investment management and advisory fee calculated at an annual rate of: 0.65% on the first $50 million, 0.55% on the next $50 million, 0.45% on the next $100 million and 0.40% on amounts over $200 million of the average daily net assets of SAS. This fee is calculated daily and paid monthly. TAMIC has a sub-advisory agreement with Pioneer Investment Management, Inc. ("Pioneer"). Pursuant to the sub-advisory agreement, Pioneer is responsible for the day-to-day operations and investment decisions for PFP. As a result, TAMIC pays Pioneer, as sub-adviser, an advisory fee calculated at an annual rate of 0.375% of the average daily net assets of PFP. 103 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) Effective December 1, 2004, the sub-advisory fee was revised from the annual rate of 0.375% of the average daily net assets of the fund to a fee calculated at an annual rate in accordance with the following schedule: <Table> <Caption> SUB-ADVISORY AVERAGE DAILY NET ASSETS FEE - ------------------------ ------------ First $250 million.......................................... 0.375% Next $250 million........................................... 0.325% Next $500 million........................................... 0.300% Next $1 billion............................................. 0.275% Amounts over $2 billion..................................... 0.225% </Table> The Travelers Insurance Company ("TIC"), another indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Citigroup, acts as administrator to the Funds. The Funds pay TIC an administration fee calculated at an annual rate of 0.06% of the average daily net assets of each Fund. This fee is calculated daily and paid monthly. TIC has entered into a sub-administrative services agreement with SBFM. TIC pays SBFM, as sub-administrator, a fee calculated at an annual rate of 0.02% of the average daily net assets of each Fund, plus $30,000 per Fund, subject to a maximum of 0.06% of each Fund's average daily net assets. During the year ended December 31, 2004, the Funds had in place contractual expense limitations of 1.25% for each of the Funds USGS, SAS and PFP. These expense limitations are renewed annually and can be terminated at any time by TIC with 60 days' notice. During the year ended December 31, 2004, SBFM voluntarily waived a portion of its fee in the amount of $1,726, $1,652, and $1,707 for USGS, SAS and PFP, respectively. In addition, for the year ended December 31, 2004, SBFM reimbursed expenses in the amount of $31,759 for each of the Funds USGS and SAS, and $34,709 for PFP, in connection with the overpayment of transfer agent fees relating to the period from June 1999 through June 2004. Citicorp Trust Bank, fsb. ("CTB"), another subsidiary of Citigroup, acts as the Funds' transfer agent. For the year ended December 31, 2004, each Fund paid transfer agent fees of $2,500 to CTB. For the year ended December 31, 2004, Citigroup Global Markets Inc., another indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Citigroup, and its affiliates received brokerage commissions of $326 from PFP. One Trustee and all officers of the Trust are employees of Citigroup or its affiliates and do not receive compensation from the Trust. 3.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION In connection with an investigation previously disclosed by Citigroup, the Staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") has notified Citigroup Asset Management ("CAM"), the Citigroup business unit that includes the funds' investment manager and other investment advisory companies; Citicorp Trust Bank ("CTB"), an affiliate of CAM; Thomas W. Jones, the former CEO of CAM; and three other individuals, one of whom is an employee and two of whom are former employees of CAM, that the SEC Staff is considering recommending a civil injunctive action and/or an administrative proceeding against each of them relating to the creation and operation of an internal transfer agent unit to serve various CAM-managed funds. In 1999, CTB entered the transfer agent business. CTB hired an unaffiliated subcontractor to perform some of the transfer agent services. The subcontractor, in exchange, had signed a separate agreement with CAM in 1998 that guaranteed investment management revenue to CAM and investment banking revenue to a CAM affiliate. The subcontractor's business was later taken over by PFPC Inc., and at that time the revenue guarantee was eliminated and a one-time payment was made by the subcontractor to a CAM affiliate. CAM did not disclose the revenue guarantee when the boards of various CAM-managed funds hired CTB as transfer agent. Nor did CAM disclose to the boards of the various CAM-managed funds the one-time payment received by the CAM affiliate when it was made. As previously disclosed, CAM has already paid the applicable funds, primarily through voluntary fee waivers, a total of approximately $17 million (plus interest), which is the amount of the revenue received by Citigroup relating to the revenue guarantee. In addition, the SEC Staff has indicated that it is considering recommending action based on the adequacy of the disclosures made to the fund boards that approved the transfer agency arrangement, CAM's initiation and operation of, and compensation for, the transfer agent business and CAM's retention of, and agreements with, the subcontractor. Citigroup is cooperating fully in the SEC's investigation and is seeking to resolve the matter in discussions with the SEC Staff. On January 20, 2005, Citigroup stated that it had established an aggregate reserve of $196 million ($25 million in the third quarter of 2004 and $171 million in the fourth quarter of 2004) related to its discussions with the SEC Staff. Settlement negotiations are ongoing and any settlement of this matter with the SEC will require approval by the Citigroup Board and acceptance by the Commission. 106 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) Unless and until any settlement is consummated, there can be no assurance that any amount reserved by Citigroup will be distributed. Nor is there at this time any certainty as to how the proceeds of any settlement would be distributed, to whom any such distribution would be made, the methodology by which such distribution would be allocated, and when such distribution would 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. SUBSEQUENT EVENT On January 31, 2005, Citigroup announced that it has reached an agreement with MetLife, Inc. ("MetLife") to sell Citigroup's life insurance and annuity businesses ("Travelers Life & Annuity") to MetLife. As part of this transaction, TAMIC currently an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Citigroup, would become an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of MetLife. TAMIC is the investment adviser to the Funds except Social Awareness Stock Portfolio. The transaction is subject to certain regulatory approvals, as well as other customary conditions to closing. The transaction is expected to close this summer. In connection with this transaction, the Trust's Board of Trustees will be asked to approve new investment advisory and administrative services contracts, and, to the extent required by law, variable annuity and variable life contract owners, who beneficially own the shares of the funds, will be asked to approve new investment advisory agreements. 107 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM THE SHAREHOLDERS AND BOARD OF TRUSTEES OF THE TRAVELERS SERIES TRUST: We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the schedules of investments, of U.S. Government Securities Portfolio, Social Awareness Stock Portfolio and Pioneer Fund Portfolio of The Travelers Series Trust ("Trust") as of December 31, 2004, 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 in the five-year period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Trust's 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, 2004, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, or by other appropriate auditing procedures where 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 positions of U.S. Government Securities Portfolio, Social Awareness Stock Portfolio and Pioneer Fund Portfolio of The Travelers Series Trust as of December 31, 2004, and the results of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in their net assets for each of the years in the two-year period then ended, and financial highlights for each of the years in the five-year period then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

The Charter for the Audit Committee (the "Committee") of the Board of each registered investment company (the "Fund") advised by Smith Barney Fund Management LLC or Salomon Brothers Asset Management Inc or one of their affiliates (each, an "Adviser") requires that the Committee shall approve (a) all audit and permissible non-audit services to be provided to the Fund and (b) all permissible non-audit services to be provided by the Fund's independent auditors to the Adviser and any Covered Service Providers if the engagement relates directly to the operations and financial reporting of the Fund. The Committee may implement policies and procedures by which such services are approved other than by the full Committee. The Committee shall not approve non-audit services that the Committee believes may impair the independence of the auditors. As of the date of the approval of this Audit Committee Charter, permissible non-audit services include any professional services (including tax services), that are not prohibited services as described below, provided to the Fund by the independent auditors, other than those provided to the Fund in connection with an audit or a review of the financial statements of the Fund. Permissible non-audit services may not include: (i) bookkeeping or other services related to the accounting records or financial statements of the Fund; (ii) financial information systems design and implementation; (iii) appraisal or valuation services, fairness opinions or contribution-in-kind reports; (iv) actuarial services; (v) internal audit outsourcing services; (vi) management functions or human resources; (vii) broker or dealer, investment adviser or investment banking services; (viii) legal services and expert services unrelated to the audit; and (ix) any other service the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board determines, by regulation, is impermissible. Pre-approval by the Committee of any permissible non-audit services is not required so long as: (i) the aggregate amount of all such permissible non-audit services provided to the Fund, the Adviser and any service providers controlling, controlled by or under common control with the Adviser that provide ongoing services to the Fund ("Covered Service Providers") constitutes not more than 5% of the total amount of revenues paid to the independent auditors during the fiscal year in which the permissible non-audit services are provided to (a) the Fund, (b) the Adviser and (c) any entity controlling, controlled by or under common control with the Adviser that provides ongoing services to the Fund during the fiscal year in which the services are provided that would have to be approved by the Committee; (ii) the permissible non-audit services were not recognized by the Fund at the time of the engagement to be non-audit services; and (iii) such services are promptly brought to the attention of the Committee and approved by the Committee (or its delegate(s)) prior to the completion of the audit. (2) For Managed Assets Trust, the percentage of fees that were approved by the audit committee, with respect to: Audit-Related Fees were 100% and 100% for the years ended 12/31/04 and 12/31/03; Tax Fees were 100% and 100% for the years ended 12/31/04 and 12/31/03; and Other Fees were 100% and 100% for the years ended 12/31/04 and 12/31/03.

(h) Yes. Managed Assets Trust's Audit Committee has considered whether the provision of non-audit services that were rendered to Service Affiliates which were not pre-approved (not requiring pre-approval) is compatible with maintaining the Accountant's independence. All services provided by the Accountant to Managed Assets Trust or to Service Affiliates which were required to be pre-approved were pre-approved as required. ITEM 5.
