[SUN LIFE FINANCIAL LOGO] <Page> MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ALL CAP FUND For the year ended December 31, 2003 the All Cap Fund generated a total return of 52.89%, beating the S&P 500 Index return of 28.68%. Since inception May 1, 2002 through December 31, 2003, the All Cap Fund has returned 9.03% versus 3.81% for the S&P 500 Index. As has been the case throughout 2003, the Fund remained weighted towards economically sensitive stocks at year-end. During the third quarter we shifted our capitalization strategy somewhat to a bias towards mid and large capitalization stocks, in contrast to our small to mid cap focus in the first half of the year. The reason for this change was due to the strong performance of many of our small and mid cap holdings during the second quarter, which led to many of them reaching our target valuations. As a result of the moves, many larger capitalization stocks, which lagged the small cap move, became better relative values. Because we have the flexibility to invest in stocks within a wide range of market capitalizations, we were able to shift our portfolio mix to take advantage of the best relative values. The top performers for the year were small cap holdings such as Allmerica Financial, Concord Communications, Pegasus Communications, and i-Stat. During the fourth quarter, we continued to adjust the portfolio to take advantage of the improvement in the overall US economy. Weightings were increased in consumer discretion, energy, and telecommunications, and decreased in healthcare, materials, and information technology. The drop in healthcare weightings was due to a takeover of one of our stocks, i-Stat, which was up over 280% for the year. However, we remain overweight large cap pharmaceutical stocks due to their cheap valuations relative to the market. Despite the strong performance of the US markets in 2003, we continued to find undervalued and out-of-favor issues, adding during Q4 such names as Eastman Kodak, Merck, AON Corp, Agco, Transocean, Micron Technology and Brocade Communications. Overall, the All Cap Fund has maintained a diversified portfolio roughly aligned with S&P 500 sector weightings, but one which trades at a discount to the S&P 500 Index with respect to price to sales, price to book, and price to cash flow. Specifically, valuation metrics as of December 31 show the portfolio trading at 0.72 times sales vs. 1.62 times for the S&P 500 Index, a price to book of 1.7 vs. 3.1, and a price to cash flow of 9.3 vs. 12.3, respectively. The portfolio's dividend yield (1.6%) and debt to capitalization ratio (37%) are in line with the S&P 500 index's 1.6% yield and 35% debt to capitalization. <Table> <Caption> TOP TEN EQUITY HOLDINGS TOP FIVE INDUSTRIES AT DECEMBER 31, 2003 AT DECEMBER 31, 2003 - --------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------- % OF NET ASSETS % OF NET ASSETS --------------- --------------- Annaly Mortgage Management, Inc. 2.7% Drugs 8.2% Archer-Daniels-Midland Co. 2.6% Insurance 7.1% Vicor Corp. 2.6% Aerospace & Defense 5.6% Pegasus Communications Corp. 2.5% Food, Beverages & Tobacco 5.5% Unumprovident Corp 2.4% Telecommunications 4.7% GATX Corp. 2.2% Pfizer, Inc. 2.1% Comcast Corp 2.1% BMC Software, Inc. 2.1% Tenet Healthcare Corp. 2.1% </Table> 1 <Page> - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- COMPARISON OF CHANGE IN VALUE OF A $10,000 INVESTMENT IN THE ALL CAP FUND AND THE S&P 500 INDEX* EDGAR REPRESENTATION OF DATA POINTS USED IN PRINTED GRAPHIC <Table> <Caption> ALL CAP FUND S&P 500 INDEX May 1, 2002 $10,000 $10,000 Jun 30, 2002 $8,360 $9,227 Sep 30, 2002 $6,440 $8,556 Dec 31, 2002 $7,557 $8,270 Mar 31, 2003 $6,976 $8,010 Jun 30, 2003 $9,582 $9,242 Sep 30, 2003 $9,925 $9,487 Dec 31, 2003 $11,554 $10,642 </Table> TOTAL RETURNS FOR PERIODS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2003** <Table> <Caption> LIFE OF ONE YEAR FUND*** -------- -------- All Cap Fund............................ 52.89% 9.03% S&P 500 Index........................... 28.68% 3.81% </Table> *The performance data of the index has been prepared from sources and data that the investment adviser believes to be reliable, but no representation is made as to their accuracy.

The Fund's credit overweight, specifically BBBs, was the main driver of outperformance for 2003. In addition, the Fund's high yield component positively affected performance as has the Fund's duration, which is slightly short that of the benchmark. For 2003, the Lehman BBB Corporate Index returned 11.81% while the Merrill High Yield Index returning 28.15%. While 2002, was one of the worst years for the Credit sector, 2003 turned out to be one of the best years in terms of relative price performance as investors recognized this undervalued asset class. For 2003, the ratio of downgrades to upgrades, as compiled by Moody's, was reported as 4x, a vast improvement from 2002's figure of 7.1x. During 2003, corporations focused on such measures as cash flow generation and debt reduction. Despite significant spread tightening, we continue to believe that corporate bonds retain value when contrasted to other investment grade fixed income asset classes. As such, corporate bonds comprised 38.8% of the portfolio as of December 31, 2003. Mortgage-backed securities and collateralized mortgage obligations comprised 28.7% of the portfolio, US Treasuries 11.4%, 5.8% of which were Treasury Inflation Protected Securities (TIPS). Remaining assets were divided as follows: US Agencies 8.3%, commercial mortgage-backed securities 4.3%, asset-backed securities 1.6% and other 6.9%. Third quarter 2003 GDP growth was reported at 8.2%. This figure will likely not be repeated for 2004 as expectations are for 4% growth. With growth, normally comes higher interest rates, although Federal Reserve Governors continue to signal to the market that monetary policy will remain in expansionary mode, and in addition, they remain comfortable with the level (declining) of the U.S. Dollar. While the Federal Reserve may not raise interest rates, the market may drive Treasury rates higher. Pressuring rates will be a growing budget deficit as the US Government is expected to issue almost 40% more Treasuries in 2004 than 2003. The 10-year Treasury ended the year yielding 4.25%, up 43 basis points for the year. The US Dollar began 2003 close to parity with the Euro and by year-end fell to $1.25. A lower US Dollar helps US corporations that have overseas exposure making US goods more affordable. Improving earnings and prospects for US companies should result in an expansion of the workforce. Causing concern is the rising prices of US assets for foreign entities, especially Treasuries. With US Government securities yields likely headed higher, an underweight (versus the Index) of these sectors is appropriate. Spread sectors such as corporate bonds, MBS, CMBS and ABS will be the main areas of focus. However, these sectors are considered "rich" or "tight" by many. We will dig beneath the surface to uncover what we believe to be opportunities for outperformance. 3 <Page> <Table> <Caption> TOP TEN BOND ISSUERS TOP FIVE BOND SECTORS AT DECEMBER 31, 2003 AT DECEMBER 31, 2003 - ---------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------- % OF NET ASSETS % OF NET ASSETS --------------- --------------- Federal Home Loan Mortgage 18.3% U.S. Government Agency Federal National Mortgage Assn. 11.8% Obligations 47.7% US Treasuries 11.6% Electric Utilities 6.6% Government National Mortgage Assn. 7.3% Telecommunications 5.3% Allegheny Power Co. 2.6% Broadcasting/Media 4.8% Continental Cablevision, Inc. 1.7% Commercial Mortgage Backed Northrop Grumman Corp. 1.6% Securities 4.4% Time Warner Entertainment Co. 1.6% Great Lakes Power, Inc. 1.6% GMAC Commercial Mortgage 1.5% Securities, Inc. </Table> 4 <Page> - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- COMPARISON OF CHANGE IN VALUE OF A $10,000 INVESTMENT IN THE INVESTMENT GRADE BOND FUND AND THE LEHMAN BROTHERS AGGREGATE BOND INDEX* EDGAR REPRESENTATION OF DATA POINTS USED IN PRINTED GRAPHIC <Table> <Caption> INVESTMENT GRADE LEHMAN BROTHERS BOND FUND AGGREGATE BOND INDEX Dec 7, 98 $10,000 $10,000 Dec 31, 98 $10,004 $10,025 Mar 31, 99 $10,045 $9,975 Jun 30, 99 $9,956 $9,888 Sep 30, 99 $9,963 $9,955 Dec 31, 99 $9,948 $9,943 Mar 31, 2000 $10,120 $10,162 Jun 30, 2000 $10,291 $10,338 Sep 30, 2000 $10,591 $10,651 Dec 31, 2000 $10,929 $11,099 Mar 31, 2001 $11,278 $11,435 Jun 30, 2001 $11,351 $11,499 Sep 30, 2001 $11,656 $12,031 Dec 31, 2001 $11,717 $12,037 Mar 31, 2002 $11,730 $12,048 Jun 30, 2002 $11,839 $12,493 Sep 30, 2002 $12,124 $13,065 Dec 31, 2002 $12,329 $13,271 Mar 31, 2003 $12,649 $13,456 Jun 30, 2003 $13,244 $13,792 Sep 30, 2003 $13,305 $13,772 Dec 31, 2003 $13,516 $13,815 </Table> TOTAL RETURNS FOR PERIODS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2003** <Table> <Caption> LIFE OF ONE YEAR THREE YEARS FIVE YEARS FUND*** -------- ----------- ---------- ------- Investment Grade Bond Fund.... 9.63% 7.34% 6.20% 6.12% Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index....................... 4.10% 7.57% 6.62% 6.54% </Table> *The performance data of the index has been prepared from sources and data that the investment adviser believes to be reliable, but no representation is made as to their accuracy.

At December 31, 2003, the Fund had net assets of $113.0 million, compared to $149.4 million a year earlier. The Fund had a seven-day yield of 0.48% and an average maturity of 37 days. The portfolio was 74% invested in highly rated commercial paper, 20% in U.S. Government and agency discount securities and 6% in other short-term instruments. The Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) of the Federal Reserve Board started the year with the Federal Funds rate at 1.25%. The FOMC kept rates on hold for most of the first half of the year before lowering them by 25 basis points in late June. The Federal Reserve's decision was based at the time on its concern that the economy had yet to exhibit sustained growth despite the end of the war in Iraq and that disinflationary pressures were becoming more of a concern outweighing those of an increase in inflation. The FOMC now believes the risks of a rise or decline in inflation are balanced. The Federal Funds rate at year-end was 1.00%, the lowest in 45 years and the Discount rate was 2.00%. The rate cut was the only one this year, and the 13th consecutive cut since the Fed first began trying to stimulate the economy at the beginning of 2001. Three-month Treasury bills started the year at 1.19%, reached their high the first week of January at 1.21%, dropped to 0.81% by June 19th, and closed the year at 0.92%. The spread on 90-day commercial paper over Treasury bills fluctuated between 1 and 34 basis points during the year. This year the need for commercial paper was significantly reduced due in part to a slow economy, reduced inventory levels and capital expenditures. As a result, commercial paper outstanding at year-end declined to $128.9 billion versus $137 billion at the end of 2002. The FOMC seems to be more optimistic regarding the economy's prospects for recovery in the upcoming year. Their recent statement indicates that policy accommodation can be maintained and that rates should remain on hold for a considerable period of time. Our current strategy is to maintain a fairly neutral average maturity in anticipation of a possible rate increase later this year as the economy continues its recovery. <Table> <Caption> TOP TEN ISSUERS AT DECEMBER 31, 2003 - ------------------------------------------------------------------- % OF NET ASSETS --------------- Federal National Mortgage Assn. 9.6% Federal Home Loan Mortgage 6.2% Province of British Columbia 4.8% American General Finance Corp. 4.2% General Electric Capital Corp. 4.1% Province of Quebec 4.1% National Rural Utilities Cooperative Finance Corp. 4.1% BellSouth Corp. 4.0% UBS Finance, Inc. 4.0% Toyota Motor Credit Corp. 4.0% </Table> 6 <Page> - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- COMPARISON OF CHANGE IN VALUE OF A $10,000 INVESTMENT IN THE MONEY MARKET FUND AND THE MERRILL LYNCH 3-MONTH U.S. TREASURY BILL INDEX* EDGAR REPRESENTATION OF DATA POINTS USED IN PRINTED GRAPHIC <Table> <Caption> MONEY MERRILL LYNCH MARKET FUND 3-MONTH T-BILL INDEX Dec 7, 98 $10,000 $10,000 Dec 31, 98 $10,031 $10,030 Mar 31, 99 $10,138 $10,136 Jun 30, 99 $10,246 $10,255 Sep 30, 99 $10,363 $10,385 Dec 31, 99 $10,495 $10,513 Mar 31, 2000 $10,635 $10,660 Jun 30, 2000 $10,785 $10,822 Sep 30, 2000 $10,949 $10,985 Dec 31, 2000 $11,114 $11,164 Mar 31, 2001 $11,257 $11,332 Jun 30, 2001 $11,368 $11,459 Sep 30, 2001 $11,457 $11,583 Dec 31, 2001 $11,513 $11,657 Mar 31, 2002 $11,547 $11,707 Jun 30, 2002 $11,581 $11,763 Sep 30, 2002 $11,614 $11,816 Dec 31, 2002 $11,642 $11,867 Mar 31, 2003 $11,662 $11,903 Jun 30, 2003 $11,681 $11,943 Sep 30, 2003 $11,694 $11,973 Dec 31, 2003 $11,706 $12,004 </Table> TOTAL RETURNS FOR PERIODS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2003** <Table> <Caption> LIFE OF ONE YEAR THREE YEARS FIVE YEARS FUND*** -------- ----------- ---------- ------- Money Market Fund............. 0.55% 1.74% 3.14% 3.16% Merrill Lynch 3-month U.S. Treasury Bill Index......... 1.15% 2.44% 3.66% 3.67% </Table> *The performance data of the index has been prepared from sources and data that the investment adviser believes to be reliable, but no representation is made as to their accuracy.

For the full year 2003, Outlet Centers, Health Care, Regional Malls, Diversified, Strip Centers, and Self Storage REITs outperformed The Morgan Stanley REIT Index, while the Manufactured Homes, Apartments, Mixed, Hotel, Office, Industrial, and Triple Net Lease REITs underperformed the Index. The stocks in the portfolio that had the largest positive contribution to performance for the full year 2003 were General Growth (Malls), Vornado (Diversified), SL Green (Office), Kimco (Strip Centers), and CBL Properties (Malls). The stocks that detracted from performance for the full year 2003 were Tenet HealthCare (Health Care), AIMCO (Apartments), Crescent Realty (Office), Dillard's (Retail), and Annaly Mortgage (Mortgages). For the year 2003, the Morgan Stanley REIT Index was up 36.74%, beating the Dow and the S&P 500, which were up 28.26% and 28.68%, respectively, while finishing behind the NASDAQ which was up 50.77%. At the end of 2003, the Fund was underweight Health Care, Apartments, Triple Net Lease, Mixed, Outlet Centers, Diversified, Hotels, Manufactured Homes, and Self Storage. The Fund finished the year overweight Regional Malls, Office, Strip Centers, and Industrial. The Fund also had an investment in a mortgage REIT, which is not a property type included in the Morgan Stanely REIT Index. In addition, the Fund also owns a position in Dillard's, which is a department store chain that owns most of its real estate. The Fund continues to reduce the overweight in the Strip Centers and Regional Malls property types selectively. We have watched the Apartment sector closely over the last few quarters hoping for an opportunity to add to positions, or for a new investment, but presently the valuation levels in the property type are too high. We are finding the most value in selective names within the Office property type currently and have recently added to positions in a few holdings. Other recent additions to the portfolio are three Hotel REITs, which should help the portfolio perform well in an economic recovery. The Fund's position in Tenet HealthCare, a hospital company, was sold subsequent to year end as its turnaround began to look overwhelmed by a growing number of legal liabilities and financial leverage issues. The average dividend yield for The Morgan Stanley REIT Index decreased again in the 4th quarter to 5.61%, down from 6.54% at the end of the 2nd quarter and 6.06% at the end of the 3rd quarter. The Fund finished the quarter with a dividend yield of 5.10% for the Fund and 4.248% for the 10-yr Treasury yield. The weighted average and median market capitalizations for the Fund was $3.23 billion and $1.96 billion, compared to $3.71 billion and $1.16 billion for the Morgan Stanley REIT Index. 8 <Page> <Table> <Caption> TOP TEN EQUITY HOLDINGS TOP FIVE PROPERTY TYPES AT DECEMBER 31, 2003 AT DECEMBER 31, 2003 - -------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------- % OF NET ASSET % OF NET ASSET -------------- -------------- SL Green Realty Corp. 5.4% Office 16.8% General Growth Properties, Inc. 5.2% Regional Malls 16.6% Vornado Realty Trust 4.8% Shopping Centers 14.0% Developers Diversified Realty Corp. 4.7% Apartments 13.5% Macerich Co. 4.4% Real Estate 7.8% CBL & Associates Properties, Inc. 4.4% Dillards, Inc.

MARKET OVERVIEW The twelve months ending December 31, 2003 brought relief from all the selling experienced over the past few years. During the first two months of the year, most equity indices lost ground, as fears about a war with Iraq began to trump economic fundamentals. However, with the outbreak of war in March, the negative trend was reversed. Preferring war to the pre-combat uncertainty, investors pushed most indices higher during the final month of the quarter. The second quarter saw a continuation of the positive momentum. Reassured by the swift and decisive allied victory in Iraq, better-than expected first quarter profits and a 25 basis point rate cut on June 25th, investors found good reason to get back into the Market. The second half of the year picked up right where the first half left off. Upbeat earnings news in the tech sector, a bullish outlook from the Fed and the highest GDP growth in 20 years all proved encouraging to investors during the six-month period. The capture of Saddam Hussein on December 13th helped to solidify the gains. Stock prices moved higher in five of the final six months of the year, with small cap stocks leading the way. As equity markets headed into the New Year, low interest rates, minimal inflation and solid economic fundamentals appeared to eclipse fear and uncertainty. At the end of last year, many observers remarked that the markets had been down for three years in a row between 2000 and 2002 and that a fourth year in a row would be very unlikely. 2003 was rather spectacular for the markets, with the S&P 500 up 28.7%, and the Nasdaq up 50.8%. We feel that the combination of improved fundamentals, low inflation, low interest rates, and steadily increasing demand will mean continued improvement in corporate earnings. When that fact is juxtaposed to an election year and the low-yield on bonds, we see significant upside in equities in 2004. We also take the capture of Saddam Hussein as an indication that a stable, democratic future is possible for Iraq, and that we may see a lessening of international tension. 11 <Page> MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ALGER GROWTH FUND (SUBADVISED BY FRED ALGER MANAGEMENT, INC.) The Alger Growth Fund returned 34.27% for the twelve months ended December 31, 2003, compared to 28.68% for the S&P 500 Index. The fund seeks long-term capital appreciation by focusing on growing companies that generally have broad product lines, markets, financial resources and depth of management. Under normal circumstances, the fund invests primarily in the equity securities of large companies, those having a market capitalization of $1 billion or greater. Individual stock selection is based on the in-depth, fundamental research conducted by our staff of seasoned analysts. Through the efforts of our research staff, we seek out those companies that have higher earnings growth potential than the broad market, exceptionally strong management, sustainability and predictability of growth, and market dominance. During the twelve-month period, the Fund benefited from strong security selection in the information technology and health care sectors, and an underweighting in the relatively weak consumer staples sector in beating the S&P 500 benchmark. At the stock level, holdings that contributed most positively to the Fund's performance throughout the year included eBay Inc., Yahoo Inc., Intel Corp., Cisco Systems Inc. and Veritas Software Corp. Conversely, securities that detracted most from the Fund's value included General Dynamics Corp., Accenture Ltd., HCA Inc., Harley-Davidson Inc. and Travelers Property Casualty Corp. The Fund remains well diversified, with Information Technology, Consumer Discretionary and Health Care representing the top three sectors as of December 31, 2003. <Table> <Caption> TOP TEN EQUITY HOLDINGS TOP FIVE INDUSTRIES AT DECEMBER 31, 2003 AT DECEMBER 31, 2003 - ---------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------- % OF NET ASSETS % OF NET ASSETS --------------- --------------- Microsoft Corp. 3.9% Software 12.3% eBay, Inc. 3.1% Semiconductors 8.4% Tyco International Ltd. 3.1% Internet & Catalog Retail 7.2% Yahoo, Inc. 2.9% Communication Equipment 5.9% Cisco Systems, Inc. 2.9% Industrial Conglomerates 5.6% Boston Scientific Corp. 2.7% Genentech, Inc. 2.6% Amazon.com , Inc. 2.6% General Electric Co. 2.6% Teradyne, Inc. 2.5% </Table> 12 <Page> - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- COMPARISON OF CHANGE IN VALUE OF A $10,000 INVESTMENT IN THE ALGER GROWTH FUND AND THE S&P 500 INDEX* EDGAR REPRESENTATION OF DATA POINTS USED IN PRINTED GRAPHIC <Table> <Caption> ALGER GROWTH FUND S&P 500 INDEX Apr 1, 2002 $10,000 $10,000 Jun 30, 2002 $8,570 $8,661 Sep 30, 2002 $6,940 $7,165 Dec 31, 2002 $7,126 $7,770 Mar 31, 2003 $7,076 $7,525 Jun 30, 2003 $8,307 $8,684 Sep 30, 2003 $8,567 $8,914 Dec 31, 2003 $9,568 $10,002 </Table> TOTAL RETURNS FOR PERIODS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2003** <Table> <Caption> LIFE OF ONE YEAR FUND*** -------- -------------- Alger Growth Fund....................... 34.27% -2.49% S&P 500 Index........................... 28.68% -0.02% </Table> *The performance data of the index has been prepared from sources and data that the investment adviser believes to be reliable, but no representation is made as to their accuracy.

The Alger Small Capitalization Fund returned 43.50% for the twelve months ended December 31, 2003, compared to 48.54% for the Russell 2000 Growth Index. The fund seeks long-term capital appreciation by focusing on small, fast-growing companies that offer innovative products, services or technologies to a rapidly expanding marketplace. Under normal circumstances, the portfolio invests primarily in the equity securities of small capitalization companies, those having a market capitalization within the range of the Russell 2000 Growth Index or the S&P SmallCap 600 Index.

Through the efforts of our research staff, we seek out those companies that have higher earnings growth potential than the broad market, exceptionally strong management, sustainability and predictability of growth, and market dominance.

U.S. economic activity, as measured by the gross domestic product trended down over the first six months of the year but improved sharply in the third quarter. Interest rates, as measured by the 10-year Treasury bond, declined steadily over the first six months and then rebounded sharply in the third quarter. Interest rates held steady in the fourth quarter. This combination provided a favorable background for stocks as they advanced strongly in the fourth quarter. DAVIS FINANCIAL FUND (SUBADVISED BY DAVIS ADVISORS) The Fund returned 34.42% for the year ended December 31, 2003, compared with a return of 28.68% for the S&P 500 Index. Contributors and detractors to relative performance over the year included: - The financial services sector as a whole outperformed the S&P 500 Index. In addition, the specific companies in the financial services sector, which the Fund owned, outperformed the majority of financial services companies included in the Index. American Express, up 37.66%, D&B Corp., up 47.03% and Golden West Financial, up 44.31%, were important Fund holdings in this sector. - The Fund also makes strategic investments in non-financial companies. These companies as a group were strong contributors to both relative and absolute performance. These companies included Tyco International, up 55.57%, and Sealed Air Corp., up 45.15%. - In the strong bull market cash holdings were a drag on relative performance. The Fund's short-term performance was also hurt by State Street Corp., down 18.57%, and Principal Financial Group, down 8.50%. The Fund sold both of these holdings. We continue to believe that long-term demographics favor financial services companies. The Fund's investment strategy is to perform extensive research to buy companies with expanding earnings at value prices and hold them for the long term. After a strong year such as the Fund enjoyed in 2003, we caution investors not to be overly optimistic. We are strong supporters of long-term buy-and-hold investing. <Table> <Caption> TOP TEN EQUITY HOLDINGS TOP FIVE INDUSTRIES AT DECEMBER 31, 2003 AT DECEMBER 31, 2003 - ---------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------- % OF NET ASSETS % OF NET ASSETS --------------- --------------- American Express Co. 7.0% Insurance 25.2% Julius Baer Holding, Ltd.

Contributors and detractors to relative performance over the year included: - The Fund's large holdings in financial services companies, and their strong performance through the year, were the most important contributor to the Fund's strong relative performance. American Express, up 37.66% and Progressive Corp., up 68.68% were important contributors in this sector. - The capital goods companies which the Fund held as a group outperformed the Index by a substantial margin. Tyco International, up 55.57% was the Fund's most important contributor to the performance of this sector. - Weaker performance from the Fund's health care companies, and cash holdings were a drag on relative performance. The Fund's short-term performance was also hurt by Kraft, down 15.42%, Safeway, down 6.21%, and Takefuji, down 13.63%. The Fund sold its Safeway holdings but continues to hold the other two. We have built a portfolio which is quite different in composition from the S&P 500 Index.

MARKET OVERVIEW After three years of losses, the bear market for stocks ended in 2003 with the first year of positive returns for the S&P 500, DJIA & NASDAQ since 1999. Even though the economy had recovered from the recession lows, many investors feared that growth was fragile as business spending remained tepid and employment was weak. However, the Federal Reserve held rates low, which in turn allowed consumer spending to be unleashed from massive mortgage refinancing. In addition, fiscal stimulus provided strength to consumers through tax cuts and spending hikes. Finally, the end to major conflict in Iraq provided the psychological lift to boost equity prices. Corporate earnings jumped in the third and fourth quarter as economic growth picked up steam. All major equity indices registered gains with growth and value styles advancing about the same amount in 2003. Small capitalization and technology stocks generated the greatest returns. The Russell 2000 small cap index was up a record 47.25%, beating the Russell 1000's return of 29.89% for the fifth straight year. The Russell Midcap index wasn't too far behind small caps with a 40.06% advance. The stocks of cyclical and less quality firms performed much better than larger, high quality and stable companies. 22 <Page> MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- NEUBERGER BERMAN MID CAP GROWTH FUND (SUBADVISED BY NEUBERGER BERMAN MANAGEMENT, INC.) The Neuberger Berman Mid Cap Growth Fund, while posting positive returns of 29.08%, underperformed the Russell Midcap Growth Index, which returned 42.71% in the year ending December 31, 2003. Mid-cap growth managers struggled versus the benchmark in 2003, with the Russell Mid Cap Growth Index return ranking in the top 16% of the peer group as defined by Lipper. The largest contributors to portfolio performance for the year were security selection within Industrials, Telecommunications and Energy. In Industrials our emphasis on education stocks was additive to performance. Also, stock selection within Telecommunications was additive to performance for the year. Although one of the weaker performing sectors on a year-to-date basis, security selection within Energy was additive to performance due to the fact that companies that had the ability to either increase reserves or production within oil and gas were emphasized such as: Murphy Oil (MUR) and XTO Energy (XTO) In addition, in terms of sector allocation our overweight Information Technology (IT) one of the strongest performing sectors was additive to performance for the year. Lastly, our under weight in Consumer Staples, one of the weaker sectors, was also contributory to performance. Stock selection with Information Technology (IT) had the most negative impact on relative portfolio performance. The defensive nature of our holdings in this sector at the beginning of the second quarter fell behind the Indices as the market moved sharply upward in April and May. For example, the portfolio held names in technology that we believe would have performed well in the event that spending in this area does not improve significantly. These defensive, less cyclical, lower octane names under-performed the more cyclical, higher beta names in the sector. In May, we began repositioning the portfolio strategically to take advantage of this shift in the market. In addition holdings in Consumer Discretionary negatively impacted the portfolio as one holding reported a negative earnings surprise. Into 2004 we believe that market leadership will continue in technology, consumer discretionary, industrials, materials and financials which have been areas that we have been emphasizing in the portfolios since the beginning of the second quarter 2003. Having said that we also believe that next years stock market will be highly rotational in terms of factor influences as the market continues to deal with hedge fund program trading and the mutual fund trading scandal. <Table> <Caption> TOP TEN EQUITY HOLDINGS TOP FIVE INDUSTRIES AT DECEMBER 31, 2003 AT DECEMBER 31, 2003 - ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------ % OF NET ASSETS % OF NET ASSETS --------------- --------------- Zebra Technologies Corp. 2.6% Electronics Semiconductors 7.1% Nextel Partners, Inc. 1.7% Computers & Business Equipment 5.5% Univision Communications, Inc. 1.6% Retail trade 5.5% Coach, Inc. 1.5% Drugs & Health Care 5.2% Franklin Resources, Inc. 1.5% Diversified Financial Services 3.7% Symantec Corp. 1.5% Nordstrom, Inc. 1.5% UTStarcom,Inc. 1.5% Microchip Technology, Inc, 1.5% Harman International Industries, Inc. 1.4% </Table> 23 <Page> - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- COMPARISON OF CHANGE IN VALUE OF A $10,000 INVESTMENT IN THE NEUBERGER BERMAN MID CAP GROWTH FUND AND THE RUSSELL MIDCAP GROWTH INDEX* EDGAR REPRESENTATION OF DATA POINTS USED IN PRINTED GRAPHIC <Table> <Caption> NEUBERGER BERMAN RUSSELL MIDCAP MID CAP GROWTH FUND GROWTH INDEX May 1, 2001 $10,000 $10,000 Jun 30, 2001 $10,110 $9,958 Sep 30, 2001 $7,300 $7,190 Dec 31, 2001 $8,750 $9,135 Mar 31, 2002 $8,631 $8,974 Jun 30, 2002 $7,241 $7,335 Sep 30, 2002 $6,100 $6,075 Dec 31, 2002 $6,190 $6,632 Mar 31, 2003 $6,120 $6,631 Jun 30, 2003 $7,060 $7,875 Sep 30, 2003 $7,130 $8,438 Dec 31, 2003 $7,990 $9,464 </Table> TOTAL RETURNS FOR PERIODS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2003** <Table> <Caption> LIFE OF ONE YEAR TWO YEARS FUND*** -------- -------------- -------------- Neuberger Berman Mid Cap Growth Fund............................. 29.08% -4.44% -8.06% Russell Midcap Growth Index........ 42.71% 1.78% -2.04% </Table> *The performance data of the indices has been prepared from sources and data that the investment adviser believes to be reliable, but no representation is made as to their accuracy.

The Neuberger Berman Mid Cap Value Fund produced a solid total return of 36.35% in 2003 but fell shy of the Russell Midcap Value Index (RMCV) return of 38.07%. On an absolute basis, the Fund's holdings in Consumer Discretionary and Financials made the largest contribution to portfolio total return. The positive impacts of portfolio holdings within Health Care, Energy, Industrials and Information Technology (IT) were also sizable. On a relative basis, strong stock selection in Consumer Discretionary and Energy was beneficial, while lower returns in Health Care and Financials led to underperformance of the index. We continue to be significantly overweight the Health Care and Energy sectors and substantially underweight Information Technology and Utilities. This is not due to our outlook on the sectors themselves, but is a result of our bottom-up stock selection process. We believe our holdings within Health Care and Energy remain very attractive on a fundamental and valuation basis. The fundamentals of the companies we own in both sectors are, in our opinion, more favorable now, going into 2004, than they were going into 2003. Even if commodity prices end up being weaker than expected, we have confidence that our holdings would still be able to meet our earnings expectations, given their solid balance sheets and low operating and financing costs that would protect margins. In addition, their low valuation multiples would likely provide a cushion against stock price pressures. As for our underweight allocation to Information Technology, we have simply been unable to find many quality companies at valuations not already reflecting highly optimistic economic and earnings growth assumptions. We have a neutral view on the stock market; i.e., we believe 2004 is likely to be a year of normal, single-digit returns. After a strong 2003, we believe investors' positive expectations are already being reflected in many equity valuations, and see little remaining that could carry the market significantly higher. We do, however, believe that there is ample opportunity for select stocks in 2004: those companies trading at valuations below what they are worth. We note that our portfolio trades at a 22% discount to the RMCV based on 2004 earnings expectations, and is 32% cheaper than mid-caps overall on the same basis (as represented in the Russell MidCap). In addition, our portfolio has a higher return on equity (a measure of profitability and how effectively companies use shareholders' money) and higher historical & projected earnings growth rates than the RMCV. This is representative of our high quality discipline, and of our affinity for growth but our discipline of under-paying for it. We can't predict what the economy or the market will do in 2004. This is irrelevant given that we run the portfolio on a bottom-up basis. What we do to reduce risk is pay low prices for what we believe are strong, well-run businesses possessing the ability to act/react to favorable and unfavorable economic conditions and events. We also try to ensure that there is enough upside potential to justify the investment risks we take. 25 <Page> <Table> <Caption> TOP TEN EQUITY HOLDINGS TOP FIVE INDUSTRIES AT DECEMBER 31, 2003 AT DECEMBER 31, 2003 - ---------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------- % OF NET ASSETS % OF NET ASSETS --------------- --------------- Constellation Brands, Inc. 2.5% Oil Crude Producers 6.7% Triad Hospitals, Inc. 2.5% Financial Miscellaneous 6.4% Oxford Health Plans, Inc. 2.4% Auto Parts 5.3% First Tennessee National Corp. 2.4% Financial Services 5.2% RenaissanceRe Holdings Ltd. 2.3% Banks 4.9% Charter One Financial, Inc. 2.3% Radian Group, Inc. 2.3% Manpower, Inc. 2.3% V.F.

The year was a huge success for the market, as the S&P 500 Index returned 28.68%, its first annual gain since 1999. The stocks of mid-sized companies outperformed those of large companies, as the S&P MidCap 400 Index returned 35.62%. Small company stocks performed best, as the S&P SmallCap 600 Index returned 38.79%. Non-U.S. markets also had a strong year, the MSCI EAFE (Europe, Australia and Far East) Index rose 35.28%. During the fourth quarter in particular, exceedingly positive economic news -- including bullish reports on corporate profits, gross domestic product ("GDP") growth and productivity -- matched or topped the expectations that had been priced into the equity markets. In November, the federal government revised third-quarter GDP growth to a sizzling 8.2% annual rate, up from the already-buoyant 7.2% initial estimate. The question is whether the economic expansion is here to stay. We believe it is. While an 8.2% GDP growth rate is likely not sustainable, we believe the economy can grow at an above-average pace for many quarters to come. The current expansion represents, in our view, the coming together of previous technology investments, business process improvements, widespread cost reductions and monetary stimulus. There has been a time lag between the favorable actions and the economic benefits, but we believe this lag has now passed. Two areas of potential economic concern are unemployment and the decline of the dollar. We see unemployment abating to normal levels over the course of 2004 as the expansion progresses and businesses find that even with improved productivity, workers must be hired to keep pace. As for the dollar, we do not view its decline thus far as cause for concern. We have long believed the dollar to be overvalued and over time expect the currency to stabilize near its fair value. Even with the sharp rise in stock prices in 2003, we perceive valuations as being reasonable against low inflation, historically low interest rates and improving corporate profits. As the economy continues to demonstrate not only health but also strength, we anticipate further economic growth and an accompanying rise in equity prices. Looking specifically to 2004, the stock market is not likely to match the exceptional gains of 2003. Nonetheless, we believe stocks have room to advance during the coming year. Through careful research, we will continue to seek out stocks trading at large discounts to intrinsic value, as the dual goals of controlling risk and providing excellent long-term investment performance are pursued. 28 <Page> MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- VALUE EQUITY FUND (SUBADVISED BY OPCAP ADVISORS) The SC Value Equity Fund returned 32.76%, exceeding the 30.03% return of the benchmark Russell 1000 Value Index. The Fund invests in companies priced below our estimate of intrinsic value with a goal of controlling risk and generating long-term capital appreciation. The Fund's consumer discretionary, materials and consumer staple holdings performed particularly well, partially offsetting the underperformance of the Fund's financial stocks. EMC (data storage products) was the largest contributor to performance, approximately doubling in price on new product introductions and improving earnings. Profits were taken on this position as it was sold as the price advanced. Dollar General (discount retailing) increased on higher earnings and favorable same-store sales trends. Other contributors to performance included, Citigroup (financial services), Sears Roebuck (retailing) and ConocoPhillips (oil and gas). UnumProvident (disability insurance) was the largest detractor from performance, declining after the company restated prior year earnings. This investment was increased on price weakness. Other detractors from performance included, Anadarko Petroleum (oil and gas) and Boeing (aircraft and aerospace). Both of these positions were sold. <Table> <Caption> TOP TEN EQUITY HOLDINGS TOP FIVE INDUSTRIES AT DECEMBER 31, 2003 AT DECEMBER 31, 2003 - ---------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------- % OF NET ASSETS % OF NET ASSETS --------------- --------------- ConocoPhillips 5.0% Financial Services 14.6% Freddie Mac 4.3% Banking 10.6% International Paper Co. 3.9% Energy 10.6% Fannie Mae 3.5% Insurance 6.4% Citigroup, Inc. 3.3% Media 5.5% BP PLC 3.3% Exelon Corp. 3.1% Inco Ltd. 2.9% Wells Fargo & Co. 2.9% Hughes Electronics Corp. 2.9% </Table> 29 <Page> - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- COMPARISON OF CHANGE IN VALUE OF A $10,000 INVESTMENT IN THE VALUE EQUITY FUND AND THE RUSSELL 1000 VALUE INDEX* EDGAR REPRESENTATION OF DATA POINTS USED IN PRINTED GRAPHIC <Table> <Caption> VALUE EQUITY FUND RUSSELL 1000 VALUE INDEX Jul 17, 2000 $10,000 $10,000 Jul 31, 2000 $9,690 $9,437 Aug 31, 2000 $10,210 $10,135 Sep 30, 2000 $10,240 $9,665 Oct 31, 2000 $10,890 $9,549 Nov 30, 2000 $10,730 $8,676 Dec 31, 2000 $11,335 $8,781 Mar 31, 2001 $11,305 $10,215 Jun 30, 2001 $11,619 $10,714 Sep 30, 2001 $10,619 $9,541 Dec 31, 2001 $11,049 $10,244 Mar 31, 2002 $10,912 $10,663 Jun 30, 2002 $9,235 $9,755 Sep 30, 2002 $7,355 $7,924 Dec 31, 2002 $8,014 $8,654 Mar 31, 2003 $7,811 $8,163 Jun 30, 2003 $9,101 $9,573 Sep 30, 2003 $9,400 $9,771 Dec 31, 2003 $10,639 $11,157 </Table> TOTAL RETURNS FOR PERIODS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2003** <Table> <Caption> LIFE OF ONE YEAR THREE YEARS FUND*** --------------- --------------- -------------- Value Equity Fund.................. 32.76% -2.09% 1.81% Russell 1000 Value Index........... 30.03% 1.22% 3.21% </Table> *The performance data of the index has been prepared from sources and data that the investment adviser believes to be reliable, but no representation is made as to their accuracy.

The Fund returned 29.07% versus 28.68% for the benchmark S&P 500 Index. During 2003, the Fund's consumer discretionary and consumer staple stocks performed particularly well, partially offsetting the relative underperformance of the financial services stocks. Among individual stocks, retailer Sears Roebuck was the top contributor to performance. This investment was purchased in the second quarter and benefited performance as the price advanced. Tyco International (diversified industrial company) was another new position which contributed significantly to performance. This company was also purchased in the second quarter when, in our view, it was inexpensive due to the cloud hanging over the company related to the actions of prior management. New management is revitalizing the company, which has provided the stock with a lift. Other contributors to performance included, Hughes Electronics (satellite TV), Citigroup (financial services) and Dollar General (discount retailing). UnumProvident (disability insurance) was the largest detractor from performance, declining after the company restated prior year earnings. Other detractors included Boeing (aircraft and aerospace), which was sold in the second quarter, and Tenet Healthcare (hospitals). <Table> <Caption> TOP TEN EQUITY HOLDINGS TOP FIVE INDUSTRIES AT DECEMBER 31, 2003 AT DECEMBER 31, 2003 - ---------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------- % OF NET ASSETS % OF NET ASSETS --------------- --------------- Freddie Mac 5.8% Financial Services 19.6% Sears Roebuck & Co. 5.1% Retail 7.6% Hughes Electronics Corp. 5.0% Multimedia 7.5% Fannie Mae 4.6% Energy 7.4% Wells Fargo & Co. 4.3% Health Care Facilities 7.4% Tyco International Ltd. 4.3% Citigroup, Inc. 3.9% Pfizer, Inc. 3.4% ConocoPhillips 3.3% BP PLC 3.3% </Table> 31 <Page> - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- COMPARISON OF CHANGE IN VALUE OF A $10,000 INVESTMENT IN THE VALUE MANAGED FUND AND THE S&P 500 INDEX* EDGAR REPRESENTATION OF DATA POINTS USED IN PRINTED GRAPHIC <Table> <Caption> VALUE MANAGED FUND S&P 500 INDEX Jul 17, 2000 $10,000 $10,000 Jul 31, 2000 $9,860 $9,478 Aug 31, 2000 $10,290 $10,067 Sep 30, 2000 $10,420 $9,535 Oct 31, 2000 $10,879 $9,495 Nov 30, 2000 $10,819 $8,747 Dec 31, 2000 $11,388 $8,790 Mar 31, 2001 $11,104 $7,747 Jun 30, 2001 $11,378 $8,206 Sep 30, 2001 $10,411 $6,999 Dec 31, 2001 $10,696 $7,752 Mar 31, 2002 $10,756 $7,772 Jun 30, 2002 $9,634 $6,733 Sep 30, 2002 $8,065 $5,572 Dec 31, 2002 $8,404 $6,043 Mar 31, 2003 $8,095 $5,844 Jun 30, 2003 $9,309 $6,743 Sep 30, 2003 $9,688 $6,922 Dec 31, 2003 $10,847 $7,765 </Table> TOTAL RETURNS FOR PERIODS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2003** <Table> <Caption> LIFE OF ONE YEAR THREE YEARS FUND*** -------- -------------- -------------- Value Managed Fund................. 29.07% -1.61% 2.38% S&P 500 Index...................... 28.68% -4.05% -7.05% </Table> *The performance data of the index has been prepared from sources and data that the investment adviser believes to be reliable, but no representation is made as to their accuracy.

This performance compared to the 40.18% return for the S&P MidCap 400/Barra Value Index. Nearly one-third of the Fund's assets are invested in the industrial sector, where good values have been identified. We are focused on owning industrial firms that have the operating leverage to increase earnings significantly in an improving economy. In fact, the Fund's industrial holdings were strong performers during 2003, returning 40.46% versus 33.46% for the industrial sector of the S&P MidCap Index. The Fund's consumer staple investments also performed well, while the financial and technology positions lagged the market. For the year, among individual stocks, Dollar General (discount retailing) was the top contributor to performance, rising sharply on higher earnings and favorable same-store sales trends. Canadian National Railway, the second largest contributor to performance, benefited from an improving economic environment. Invitrogen, another top contributor, was purchased early in 2003 and sold during the fourth quarter as profits were taken. This company provides specialty chemicals used in life science and discovery applications and clinical research. The Fund's investments in both Diebold (ATM machines and electronic voting machines) and Actuant (motion control tools and hydraulic equipment) also contributed strongly to performance. Electro Scientific (high-tech manufacturing equipment) was the largest detractor from performance, declining due to the company's delays in filing financial statements. Other detractors included Apogent Technologies (equipment and disposables for the clinical research industry) and Tenet Healthcare (hospitals). All three of these positions have been sold. <Table> <Caption> TOP TEN EQUITY HOLDINGS TOP FIVE INDUSTRIES AT DECEMBER 31, 2003 AT DECEMBER 31, 2003 - ---------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------- % OF NET ASSETS % OF NET ASSETS --------------- --------------- Aramark Corp. 4.9% Manufacturing 9.9% Lamar Advertising Co. 4.0% Commercial Services 8.8% Millipore Corp. 3.8% Insurance 8.0% Alliant Techsystems, Inc. 3.6% Advertising 7.6% Canadian National Railway Co. 2.9% Aerospace 6.1% Mettler-Toledo International, Inc. 2.7% Rockwell Collins, Inc. 2.5% Nationwide Financial Services, Inc. 2.5% Oshkosh Truck Corp. 2.5% Actuant Corp. 2.5% </Table> 33 <Page> - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- COMPARISON OF CHANGE IN VALUE OF A $10,000 INVESTMENT IN THE VALUE MID CAP FUND AND THE S&P MIDCAP 400/BARRA VALUE INDEX* EDGAR REPRESENTATION OF DATA POINTS USED IN PRINTED GRAPHIC <Table> <Caption> VALUE MID CAP S&P MIDCAP 400/ FUND BARRA VALUE INDEX Jul 17, 2000 $10,000 $10,000 Jul 31, 2000 $9,670 $9,456 Aug 31, 2000 $10,330 $10,512 Sep 30, 2000 $9,980 $10,441 Oct 31, 2000 $10,361 $10,087 Nov 30, 2000 $9,610 $9,325 Dec 31, 2000 $10,337 $10,039 Mar 31, 2001 $9,804 $11,264 Jun 30, 2001 $10,658 $12,328 Sep 30, 2001 $9,181 $10,724 Dec 31, 2001 $11,044 $12,500 Mar 31, 2002 $11,537 $13,740 Jun 30, 2002 $10,440 $12,934 Sep 30, 2002 $9,294 $10,543 Dec 31, 2002 $10,386 $11,236 Mar 31, 2003 $9,934 $10,571 Jun 30, 2003 $11,473 $12,599 Sep 30, 2003 $11,936 $13,504 Dec 31, 2003 $13,714 $15,733 </Table> TOTAL RETURNS FOR PERIODS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2003** <Table> <Caption> LIFE OF ONE YEAR THREE YEARS FUND*** -------- ----------- --------- Value Mid Cap Fund................. 32.04% 9.88% 9.56% S&P MidCap 400/Barra Value Index... 40.18% 10.52% 14.01% </Table> *The performance data of the index has been prepared from sources and data that the investment adviser believes to be reliable, but no representation is made as to their accuracy.

The Fund invests in undervalued companies with market capitalizations of less than $2 billion at the time of purchase. The Fund's consumer discretionary stocks performed well, particularly the retailer positions, which had especially strong gains. Among individual stocks, one-concept retailers Aeropostale (teen apparel) and Christopher & Banks (women's apparel) were the top two contributors to the Fund's performance and Michaels Stores (arts and crafts materials, and home decor) was the fourth largest contributor. These stocks were purchased in late 2002 and early 2003 when, in our view, they were inexpensive due to consumer jitteriness concerning the economy and Middle East military action. As the stocks rebounded, all three positions were sold at a profit. Also contributing positively to performance was Wabash National (truck trailer manufacturer) and Intertape Polymer (specialty packaging materials). The largest detractor from performance was Tier Technologies, which provides technology services to state and local governments. This position was increased after its price fell.

Low interest rates, tax cuts, a stabilizing employment picture and the weak dollar provided a boost to the US economy, and in turn, investor confidence. Risk was rewarded in 2003, as more speculative stocks gained favor over companies with strong balance sheets and dependable earnings. The spread of corporate impropriety to the housing market, the New York Stock Exchange, and the mutual fund industry, as well as lingering effects from the war in Iraq, failed to dampen investors' enthusiasm. Investors focused on a strengthening economy, better market prospects, and a Federal Reserve committed to keeping interest rates low. The economic recovery is now visible on a global scale, with US growth and corporate profits powering ahead. We expect continued, sustainable growth in 2004. A rise in consumer disposable income from tax cuts implemented last summer has kept consumption on an accelerating trend. As the benefit from the tax cut fades, job and salary growth will need to shoulder the consumption burden and signs in the labor market have been generally positive. It is fair to say, however, that with the strong market returns in 2003, we remain cautious looking ahead. We remain cognizant of issues threatening the US equity market, including declining liquidity, looming structural concerns, and relatively high equity valuations. We do not anticipate that the Fed will seriously consider raising rates until the back half of '04 and expect a decelerating trend in inflation over the coming months. 37 <Page> MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- BLUE CHIP MID CAP FUND (SUBADVISED BY WELLINGTON MANAGEMENT CO., LLP) The SC Blue Chip Mid Cap Fund returned 36.09% during the twelve months ended December 31, 2003, outpacing the 35.62% return for S&P Mid Cap 400 Index. The Fund's performance relative to the Index was helped by strong stock selection in the Financials, Telecommunications, and Information Technology sectors. The Fund also benefited from an overweight allocation to the Health Care sector, which performed well in 2003. Performance was held back somewhat due to weaker stock selection in the Consumer Discretionary and Consumer Staples sectors, as well as to an underweight allocation to the strong Information Technology sector. Key individual contributors on an absolute basis included Countrywide Financial and Hudson City Bancorp, which benefited from the strong housing and refinancing markets spurred by the low interest rate environment during 2003. Millennium Pharmaceuticals rose sharply during the year, driven by the success of its oncology drug Velcade to treat a bone marrow cancer known as multiple myeloma and the slight possibility that this drug may also help treat solid tumors. Guidant also performed well during the period on increased application of its resynchronization defibrillators, strong growth in its implantable cardioverter defibrillators, and a slower than expected decline in its bare metal stent business. The biggest individual detractors from performance on an absolute basis during 2003 included Pepsi Bottling Group, whose results were negatively impacted by cold and inclement weather in the first quarter of the year. Newell Rubbermaid also underperformed on a disappointing attempt to turn its business around. <Table> <Caption> TOP TEN EQUITY HOLDINGS TOP FIVE INDUSTRIES AT DECEMBER 31, 2003 AT DECEMBER 31, 2003 - ---------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------- % OF NET ASSETS % OF NET ASSETS --------------- --------------- Countrywide Financial Corp. 2.5% Software & Services 10.1% Guidant Corp. 1.8% Banks 8.6% XTO Energy, Inc. 1.6% Capital Goods 7.7% Intuit, Inc. 1.6% Pharmaceuticals & Biotechnology 6.4% ASML Holdings N.V. 1.5% Commercial Services & Supplies 6.2% VeriSign, Inc. 1.5% Parker-Hannifin Corp. 1.5% Health Management Associates, Inc. 1.5% EOG Resources, Inc. 1.5% Lear Corp. 1.4% </Table> 38 <Page> - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- COMPARISON OF CHANGE IN VALUE OF A $10,000 INVESTMENT IN THE BLUE CHIP MID CAP FUND AND THE S&P MIDCAP 400 INDEX* EDGAR REPRESENTATION OF DATA POINTS USED IN PRINTED GRAPHIC <Table> <Caption> BLUE CHIP MID CAP FUND S&P MIDCAP 400 INDEX Sep 1, 99 $10,000 $10,000 Sep 30, 99 $9,700 $9,691 Dec 31, 99 $12,707 $11,357 Mar 31, 2000 $15,610 $12,798 Jun 30, 2000 $15,187 $12,376 Sep 30, 2000 $16,768 $13,879 Dec 31, 2000 $15,879 $13,345 Mar 31, 2001 $13,918 $11,907 Jun 30, 2001 $15,446 $13,474 Sep 30, 2001 $12,790 $11,242 Dec 31, 2001 $15,366 $13,264 Mar 31, 2002 $16,004 $14,156 Jun 30, 2002 $14,910 $12,838 Sep 30, 2002 $12,243 $10,714 Dec 31, 2002 $13,075 $11,339 Mar 31, 2003 $12,813 $10,836 Jun 30, 2003 $15,127 $12,747 Sep 30, 2003 $15,663 $13,586 Dec 31, 2003 $17,794 $15,378 </Table> TOTAL RETURNS FOR PERIODS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2003** <Table> <Caption> LIFE OF ONE YEAR THREE YEARS FUND*** -------- ----------- ---------- Blue Chip Mid Cap Fund............. 36.09% 3.87% 14.22% S&P MidCap 400 Index............... 35.62% 4.84% 10.44% </Table> *The performance data of the index has been prepared from sources and data that the investment adviser believes to be reliable, but no representation is made as to their accuracy.

The Fund's out-performance relative to the Index during the period came primarily from strong stock selection, particularly in Financials, Industrials, and Health Care. Information Technology, the best performing sector in the Index, was the one prominent detractor from relative return comparisons due to weaker stock selection. Key individual contributors to Fund performance, on an absolute basis, were Cisco Systems (Information Technology), Citigroup (Financials), and Intel (Information Technology). Cisco Systems rose sharply during the year, driven by its aggressive growth in the storage switch business, and increased orders in the second half of the year. Citigroup continued to execute well while controlling its expenses. Intel benefited from the strong semiconductor cycle in 2003, increasing guidance during the year and beating earnings expectations. Schering-Plough (Health Care), Qwest Communications (Telecommunication Services), and Pepsi Bottling (Consumer Staples) detracted the most from Fund performance, on an absolute basis, during the year. Schering-Plough has been undergoing competitive pressures across several key drug franchises. Qwest Communications was held back due to delayed audited financials, and disappointing earnings results. Pepsi Bottling underperformed due to severe weather in the first quarter across half of their US territories. Both Qwest Communications and Pepsi Bottling had been eliminated from the Fund at the year-end. Schering-Plough remains a modest holding. <Table> <Caption> TOP TEN EQUITY HOLDINGS TOP FIVE INDUSTRIES AT DECEMBER 31, 2003 AT DECEMBER 31, 2003 - ---------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------- % OF NET ASSETS % OF NET ASSETS --------------- --------------- Microsoft Corp 4.5% Banks 9.1% Citigroup, Inc. 4.3% Pharmaceuticals & Biotechnology 8.7% Cisco Systems, Inc. 2.7% Diversified Financial 7.7% Bank of America Corp. 2.6% Software & Services 7.3% Altria Group, Inc. 2.5% Technology Hardware & Company 7.2% United Technologies Corp. 2.3% Fannie Mae 2.2% The Coca-Cola Co 2.2% International Business Machines Corp 2.1% First Data Corp. 2.0% </Table> 40 <Page> - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- COMPARISON OF CHANGE IN VALUE OF A $10,000 INVESTMENT IN THE INVESTORS FOUNDATION FUND AND THE S&P 500 INDEX* EDGAR REPRESENTATION OF DATA POINTS USED IN PRINTED GRAPHIC <Table> <Caption> INVESTORS FOUNDATION FUND S&P 500 INDEX Sep 1, 99 $10,000 $10,000 Sep 30, 99 $9,680 $9,726 Dec 31, 99 $11,213 $11,173 Mar 31, 2000 $11,684 $11,429 Jun 30, 2000 $11,353 $11,126 Sep 30, 2000 $11,313 $11,018 Dec 31, 2000 $10,547 $10,156 Mar 31, 2001 $9,635 $8,952 Jun 30, 2001 $10,275 $9,476 Sep 30, 2001 $8,691 $8,085 Dec 31, 2001 $9,711 $8,949 Mar 31, 2002 $9,547 $8,973 Jun 30, 2002 $8,415 $7,771 Sep 30, 2002 $6,749 $6,429 Dec 31, 2002 $7,299 $6,971 Mar 31, 2003 $7,003 $6,751 Jun 30, 2003 $8,043 $7,791 Sep 30, 2003 $8,339 $7,997 Dec 31, 2003 $9,430 $8,971 </Table> TOTAL RETURNS FOR PERIODS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2003** <Table> <Caption> LIFE OF ONE YEAR THREE YEARS FUND*** -------- -------------- -------------- Investors Foundation Fund.......... 29.20% -3.66% -1.35% S&P 500 Index...................... 28.68% -4.05% -2.48% </Table> *The performance data of the index has been prepared from sources and data that the investment adviser believes to be reliable, but no representation is made as to their accuracy.

The Fund's out-performance relative to the Index during the period was due to both positive sector allocation and strong stock selection. Stock selection was particularly strong in the Health Care and Information Technology sectors during 2003. Partially offsetting these positive results was weaker stock selection within Consumer Staples and Financials. Top individual contributors to Fund performance, on an absolute basis, were Intel (Information Technology), Genzyme (Health Care), and Gap (Consumer Discretionary). Intel benefited from the strong semiconductor cycle in 2003, increasing guidance during the year and beating earnings expectations. Genzyme also performed well, on the strength of developments in their product pipeline. Finally, The Gap benefited from its strong management team. Individual detractors from Fund performance, on an absolute basis, were Safeway (Consumer Staples), Pepsi Bottling (Consumer Staples) and Northrop Grumman (Industrials). All three stocks had been eliminated from the Fund as of year-end. Safeway struggled with an inability to control its cost structure as well as with an increased level of competition from the food and discount retailers. Pepsi Bottling was weak after a disappointing first quarter due to severe weather in half of their US territories. Northrop Grumman suffered from concerns regarding a less favorable settlement in Iraq, which caused defense stocks to fall out of favor. <Table> <Caption> TOP TEN EQUITY HOLDINGS TOP FIVE INDUSTRIES AT DECEMBER 31, 2003 AT DECEMBER 31, 2003 - ---------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------- % OF NET ASSETS % OF NET ASSETS --------------- --------------- Citigroup, Inc. 4.7% Pharmaceuticals & Biotechnology 18.6% Pfizer, Inc. 4.6% Diversified Financials 14.8% Time Warner Inc. 4.3% Technology Hardware & Equipment 12.5% The Gap, Inc. 4.1% Capital Goods 9.0% Eli Lilly & Co. 4.1% Retailing 8.0% Microsoft Corp. 4.0% American International Group, Inc. 3.8% The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. 3.6% United Technologies Corp. 3.5% General Electric Co. 3.5% </Table> 42 <Page> - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- COMPARISON OF CHANGE IN VALUE OF A $10,000 INVESTMENT IN THE SELECT EQUITY FUND AND THE S&P 500 INDEX* EDGAR REPRESENTATION OF DATA POINTS USED IN PRINTED GRAPHIC <Table> <Caption> SELECT EQUITY FUND S&P 500 INDEX Sep 1, 99 $10,000 $10,000 Sep 30, 99 $9,700 $9,726 Dec 31, 99 $12,640 $11,173 Mar 31, 2000 $14,680 $11,429 Jun 30, 2000 $13,060 $11,126 Sep 30, 2000 $12,770 $11,018 Dec 31, 2000 $11,413 $10,156 Mar 31, 2001 $9,353 $8,952 Jun 30, 2001 $9,863 $9,476 Sep 30, 2001 $8,282 $8,085 Dec 31, 2001 $9,562 $8,949 Mar 31, 2002 $9,165 $8,973 Jun 30, 2002 $7,324 $7,771 Sep 30, 2002 $6,176 $6,429 Dec 31, 2002 $6,927 $6,971 Mar 31, 2003 $6,749 $6,751 Jun 30, 2003 $7,724 $7,791 Sep 30, 2003 $7,965 $7,997 Dec 31, 2003 $9,073 $8,971 </Table> TOTAL RETURNS FOR PERIODS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2003** <Table> <Caption> LIFE OF ONE YEAR THREE YEARS FUND*** -------- -------------- -------------- Select Equity Fund................. 30.98% -7.36% -2.22% S&P 500 Index...................... 28.68% -4.05% -2.48% </Table> *The performance data of the index has been prepared from sources and data that the investment adviser believes to be reliable, but no representation is made as to their accuracy.

The Trust was established as a Delaware business trust under the laws of Delaware by an Agreement and Declaration of Trust dated July 13, 1998. It currently consists of eighteen funds (each referred to as a "Fund" collectively as "the Funds"), which are offered only to qualified pension and retirement plans and variable annuity and variable life insurance separate accounts established by insurance companies to fund variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies. The Funds are the Sun Capital All Cap Fund ("All Cap Fund"), Sun Capital Investment Grade Bond Fund ("Investment Grade Bond Fund"), Sun Capital Money Market Fund ("Money Market Fund"), Sun Capital Real Estate Fund ("Real Estate Fund"), SC Alger Growth Fund ("Alger Growth Fund"), SC Alger Income & Growth Fund ("Alger Income & Growth Fund"), SC Alger Small Capitalization Fund ("Alger Small Capitalization Fund"), SC Davis Financial Fund ("Davis Financial Fund"), SC Davis Venture Value Fund ("Davis Venture Value Fund"), SC Neuberger Berman Mid Cap Growth Fund ("Neuberger Berman Mid Cap Growth Fund"), SC Neuberger Berman Mid Cap Value Fund ("Neuberger Berman Mid Cap Value Fund"), SC Value Equity Fund ("Value Equity Fund"), SC Value Managed Fund ("Value Managed Fund"), SC Value Mid Cap Fund ("Value Mid Cap Fund"), SC Value Small Cap Fund ("Value Small Cap Fund"), SC Blue Chip Mid Cap Fund ("Blue Chip Mid Cap Fund"), SC Investors Foundation Fund ("Investors Foundation Fund") and the SC Select Equity Fund ("Select Equity Fund"). Each of the Funds, other than the Real Estate Fund and the Select Equity Fund, is classified as a diversified fund under the 1940 Act. NOTE B -- SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Trust in the preparation of its financial statements. VALUATION OF INVESTMENTS Securities for which exchange quotations are readily available are valued at the last sales price, or, if no sales occurred on that day, at the mean between the closing bid and asked prices. Certain fixed income securities are valued by a dealer or by a pricing service based upon a computerized matrix system, which considers market transactions and dealer supplied valuations. Short-term securities maturing in 60 days or less are valued at cost plus earned discount to maturity (amortized cost), which approximates market value. Securities for which current market quotations are not readily available are stated at fair value as determined in good faith under the direction of the Board of Trustees. In accordance with Rule 2a-7 of the 1940 Act, the Money Market Fund values its securities initially at cost, and thereafter, securities are assumed to have a constant amortization to maturity of any discount or premium. Amortized cost approximates fair value. 100 <Page> NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) SUN CAPITAL ADVISERS TRUST - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS AND INCOME Investment security transactions are accounted for as of trade date. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Realized gains and losses from security transactions are determined on the basis of identified cost for both financial statement and federal income tax purposes. The Real Estate Fund and Davis Financial Fund may have elements of risk due to concentrated investments in specific industries or foreign issuers located in a specific country. Such concentrations may subject each of these funds to additional risks resulting from future political or economic conditions and/or possible impositions of adverse foreign governmental laws or currency exchange restrictions. FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION AND FOREIGN INVESTMENTS The accounting records of the Funds are maintained in U.S. dollars. Portfolio securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in a foreign currency are translated to U.S. dollars at the prevailing rates of exchange at period end. Purchases and sales of securities, income receipts and expense payments are translated into U.S. dollars at the prevailing exchange rate on the respective dates of transactions. The effects of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on portfolio investments are included in the net realized and unrealized gains and losses on investments. Net gains and losses on foreign currency transactions include disposition of foreign currencies, and currency gains and losses between the accrual and receipt dates of portfolio investment income and between the trade and settlement dates of portfolio investment transactions. FEDERAL INCOME TAXES Each Fund is treated as a separate entity for Federal tax purposes. Each Fund has qualified and intends to elect and continue to qualify each year to be treated as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended. By so qualifying, the Funds will not be subject to Federal income taxes to the extent that they distribute all of their taxable income, including realized capital gains, for the fiscal year. In addition, by distributing during each calendar year substantially all of their net investment income, capital gains and certain other amounts, if any, the Funds will not be subject to a Federal excise tax. A portion of the dividend income recorded by Real Estate Fund is from distributions by publicly traded REITs, and such distributions for tax purposes may also consist of capital gains and return of capital. The actual return of capital and capital gains portions of such distributions will be determined by formal notifications from the REITs subsequent to the calendar year-end. Distributions received from the REITs that are determined to be a return of capital are recorded by the Fund as a reduction to the cost basis of the securities held. 101 <Page> NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) SUN CAPITAL ADVISERS TRUST - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- At December 31, 2003, the following Funds have available for federal income tax purposes capital loss carryovers which can be used to offset certain future realized capital gains. <Table> <Caption> EXPIRES DECEMBER 31, ----------------------------------------------- 2007 2008 2009 2010 2011 ------ ------ ---------- ---------- ------- Money Market Fund........ $1,180 $ 156 $ -- $ -- $ -- Alger Growth Fund........ -- -- -- 670,117 -- Alger Income & Growth Fund.................... -- -- -- 701,671 -- Davis Financial Fund..... -- -- 229,846 6,594 718,742 Davis Venture Value Fund.................... -- 4,588 764,787 3,314,207 347,308 Neuberger Berman Mid Cap Growth Fund............. -- -- 414,660 1,160,447 183,189 Value Equity Fund........ -- -- -- 1,372,093 385,176 Value Managed Fund....... -- -- -- 634,631 -- Value Small Cap Fund..... -- -- -- 1,321,563 -- Blue Chip Mid Cap Fund... -- -- 400,454 3,013,132 -- Investors Foundation Fund.................... -- -- 462,398 1,111,503 401,488 Select Equity Fund....... -- -- 3,929,604 2,261,999 348,713 </Table> Under current tax law, certain capital losses realized after October 31 within a taxable year may be deferred and treated as occurring on the first day of the following tax year.

The Fund will only enter into "covered" rolls. A "covered" roll is a specific type of dollar roll for which there is an offsetting cash position or liquid security position. A dollar roll transaction involves a sale by the Fund of securities that it holds with an agreement by the Fund to repurchase similar securities at an agreed upon price and date. The securities repurchased will be substantially similar as to type, coupon and maturity as those sold. The Fund is paid a fee for entering into a dollar roll transaction, that is accrued as income over the life of the dollar roll contract. During the period between the sale and repurchase, the Fund will not be entitled to receive interest and principal payments on the securities sold. The proceeds of the sale will generally be invested in additional instruments for the Fund, and the income from these investments, together with any additional fee income received on the dollar roll transaction, will generally exceed the interest income that would have been earned on the securities sold. Dollar roll transactions involve the risk that the market value of the securities sold by the Fund may decline below the repurchase price of those similar securities which the Fund is obligated to purchase or that the return earned by the Fund with the proceeds of a dollar roll may not exceed transaction costs. REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS In connection with transactions in repurchase agreements, the Trust's custodian takes possession of the underlying collateral securities, the value of which at least equals 102% of the principal amount of the repurchase transaction. 102 <Page> NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) SUN CAPITAL ADVISERS TRUST - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The value of the collateral is marked-to-market on a daily basis to ensure the adequacy of the collateral. In the event of default, the Funds have the right to liquidate the collateral and apply the proceeds in satisfaction of the obligation. There is the risk that the collateral may be insufficient to meet the obligation in the event of default. WHEN ISSUED SECURITIES AND FORWARD COMMITMENTS The Funds may purchase or sell securities on a when issued or forward commitment basis. These transactions are arrangements in which the Funds purchase and sell securities with payment and delivery scheduled for a future time. Settlement dates may be a month or more after entering into these transactions and such transactions may involve a risk of loss if the value of the underlying security declines prior to the settlement date. The price of the underlying securities and the date when these securities will be delivered and paid for are fixed at the time the transaction is negotiated. This may increase the risk if the other party involved in the transaction fails to deliver and causes the Funds to subsequently invest at less advantageous prices and yields. In connection with such purchases the Funds maintain cash or liquid assets in an amount equal to purchase commitments for such underlying securities until settlement date and for sales commitments the Funds maintain equivalent deliverable securities as "cover" for the transaction. Unsettled commitments are valued at current market value of the underlying security. Daily fluctuations in the value of such contracts are recorded as unrealized gains or losses. The Funds will not enter into such agreements for the purpose of investment leverage. OPTIONS A Fund may purchase and write (sell) call and put options on any securities in which it may invest or on any securities index based on securities in which it may invest. A Fund may write covered put and call options and purchase put and call options for hedging or investment purposes. The risk associated with purchasing an option is that the Fund pays a premium whether or not the option is exercised. Additionally, the Fund bears the risk of loss of premium and change in market value should the counterparty not perform under the contract. Put and call options purchased are accounted for in the same manner as portfolio securities. The cost of securities acquired through the exercise of call options is increased by the premium paid. The proceeds from securities sold through the exercise of put options are decreased by the premium paid. When a Fund writes an option, the premium received by the Fund is recorded as a liability and is subsequently adjusted to the current market value of the option written. Premiums received from writing options that expire unexercised are recorded by a Fund on the expiration date as realized gains from options transactions. The difference between the premium received and the amount paid on effecting a closing purchase transaction, including brokerage commissions, is also treated as a realized gain, or if the premium received is less than the amount paid for the closing purchase transaction, as a realized loss. If a call option is exercised, the premium received is added to the proceeds from the sale of the underlying security in determining whether the Fund has realized a gain or loss. If a put option is exercised, the premium received reduces the cost basis of the security purchased by the Fund. The risk involved in writing an option is that, if the option was exercised the underlying security could then be purchased or sold by the Fund at a disadvantageous price. Exchange-traded options are valued at the last sale price in the market where such contracts are principally traded. EXPENSES Expenses directly attributable to a Fund are charged to that Fund. Expenses not directly attributable to a particular Fund are allocated evenly among the affected Funds, allocated on the basis of relative net assets, or otherwise allocated among the Funds as the Trustees may direct or approve. 103 <Page> NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) SUN CAPITAL ADVISERS TRUST - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS The Investment Grade Bond Fund and Money Market Fund declare dividends daily from net investment income, if any. Each of the remaining Funds in the Trust distributes net investment income, if any, at least annually. Each Fund distributes its net realized capital gains, if any, at least annually. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles. These differences, which may result in distribution reclassifications, are primarily due to differing treatments for non-taxable dividends, capital loss carryforwards and losses deferred due to wash sales. Permanent book and tax basis differences relating to shareholder distributions will result in reclassifications to paid in capital and may affect the per share allocation between net investment income and realized and unrealized gain (loss). Undistributed net investment income and accumulated undistributed net realized gain (loss) on investments may include temporary book and tax differences which will reverse in a subsequent period. Any taxable income or gain remaining at fiscal year end is distributed in the following year. <Table> <Caption> INCREASE (DECREASE) ------------------------------------------------- UNDISTRIBUTED (DISTRIBUTIONS IN ACCUMULATED NET PAID IN EXCESS OF) NET REALIZED GAIN (LOSS) CAPITAL INVESTMENT INCOME ON INVESTMENTS -------- ----------------- -------------------- All Cap Fund....................... $ -- $ (840) $ 840 Investment Grade Bond Fund......... -- 5,587 (5,587) Real Estate Fund................... -- (945,536) 945,536 Alger Growth Fund..................

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, 2003, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers; where replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
