DOW CHAIRMAN - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Q. WHAT WERE THE OVERALL MARKET CONDITIONS DURING THE REPORTING PERIOD? A. Despite occasional disappointments in job reports, the overall trend in the U.S. economy was positive in the period, providing more fuel to speculation that the Federal Reserve Board would start raising interest rates again in 2004. The Treasury markets reflected the turmoil, while the municipal bond market more typically focused on issues related to supply and demand. There were signs, however, of improving fiscal health in states and municipalities, and the municipal bond market began to discount the possibility of future defaults. After a slow period of new issuance during the November-January holiday period, new bond issues began to fill the pipeline again in February and March. One of the largest issuers in the period was California, which placed $2 billion in general obligation bonds on the market in February. The bonds offered investors generous yields, reflecting the state's earlier downgrade in credit rating. Stronger equity markets generally can be counted on to siphon some assets out of municipal bonds into stocks. Certainly, this was the case in the first three months of the fiscal year. Demand remained firm, however, as high net-worth investors sought year-end tax shelters, and institutional investors continued to find value relative to Treasuries. Demand from retail investors was intermittent throughout the period and was particularly weak on those occasions when municipal bond yields dipped below 5%, an unattractive level for most individual investors. Following a series of terrorist attacks overseas in March, cash flowed out of equities for the first time in many months, providing support once again to the fixed-income market in general. Overall, intermediate- to longer-term maturities outperformed short-term maturities. In our opinion, short-term maturities remain a significantly overbought segment of the market and the one most likely to experience the greatest correction should interest rates rise. Lower-rated credits, in general, performed well, as investors continued their search for yield in a low interest-rate environment. 1 <Page> - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Q. HOW DID THE FUND/TRUST PERFORM FOR THE SIX-MONTH PERIOD ENDED MARCH 31, 2004? A. The Fund/Trust underperformed its long-only benchmark, the Lehman Municipal Long Current Bond Index,(1) while exhibiting, for the most part, more favorable performance against its peer groups, as represented in the Lipper Funds Average.(2) See table below. <Table> <Caption> SIX MONTH RETURN LEHMAN MUNICIPAL LEHMAN 9/30/2003 TO LIPPER FUNDS LONG CURRENT MUNICIPAL 3/31/2004 AVERAGE(2) BOND INDEX(1) INDEX(3) ---------------- ------------ ---------------- --------- NATIONAL TAX-FREE FUND 3.40% 2.84% 4.71% 3.12% CALIFORNIA TAX FREE FUND 3.76% 3.26% 4.71% 3.12% CONNECTICUT TAX-FREE FUND 3.25% 2.75% 4.71% 3.12% HAWAII TAX-FREE FUND 3.22% 2.60% 4.71% 3.12% MINNESOTA TAX-FREE FUND 3.15% 3.00% 4.71% 3.12% MISSOURI TAX-FREE FUND 2.95% 2.56% 4.71% 3.12% NEW JERSEY TAX-FREE FUND 3.13% 2.92% 4.71% 3.12% NEW YORK TAX-FREE FUND 3.06% 2.86% 4.71% 3.12% TEXAS TAX-FREE FUND 3.31% 2.30% 4.71% 3.12% WASHINGTON TAX-FREE FUND 2.87% 2.18% 4.71% 3.12% INSURED INTERMEDIATE TAX-FREE FUND 2.15% 2.41% 4.71% 3.12% FLORIDA TAX-FREE TRUST 2.75% 2.59% 4.71% 3.12% GEORGIA TAX-FREE TRUST 3.46% 2.33% 4.71% 3.12% MICHIGAN TAX-FREE TRUST 2.81% 2.37% 4.71% 3.12% PENNSYLVANIA TAX-FREE TRUST 3.61% 2.83% 4.71% 3.12% </Table> STANDARDIZED AVERAGE ANNUAL TOTAL RETURNS* <Table> <Caption> 10 YEARS/ 1 YEAR 5 YEARS SINCE INCEPTION ------ ------- --------------- NATIONAL TAX-FREE FUND 2.01% 4.23% 5.71% CALIFORNIA TAX FREE FUND 1.61% 4.19% 5.29% CONNECTICUT TAX-FREE FUND 2.10% 4.33% 5.59% HAWAII TAX-FREE FUND 2.16% 3.95% 5.39% MINNESOTA TAX-FREE FUND** 1.91% 4.55% 6.06% MISSOURI TAX-FREE FUND 1.83% 4.46% 5.45% NEW JERSEY TAX-FREE FUND 1.00% 3.89% 5.47% NEW YORK TAX-FREE FUND 2.05% 4.78% 5.45% TEXAS TAX-FREE FUND 2.60% 4.41% 5.88% WASHINGTON TAX-FREE FUND 1.40% 4.20% 5.89% INSURED INTERMEDIATE TAX-FREE FUND*** N/A N/A -1.05% FLORIDA TAX-FREE TRUST 1.63% 3.95% 5.13% GEORGIA TAX-FREE TRUST** 3.03% 5.35% 7.18% MICHIGAN TAX-FREE TRUST 1.97% 5.24% 6.15% PENNSYLVANIA TAX-FREE TRUST 2.53% 4.59% 5.90% </Table> PERFORMANCE DATA QUOTED ABOVE IS HISTORICAL.

WHAT WERE THE MOST SIGNIFICANT FACTORS AFFECTING PERFORMANCE? A. Throughout the period, investors continued to show a preference for the higher-yielding, lower quality area of the municipal bonds market, a sector in which we do not participate. Accordingly, we did not benefit from capital appreciation in that sector. Also detracting from performance was the short-term defensive component of the portfolios, as shorter maturities in general exhibited coupon-driven performance in the period. Contributing to performance overall was our focus on longer-maturity, high-quality municipal bonds--a highly liquid segment of the market throughout the interest rate cycle and one that we believe is most consistent with a long-term investment perspective. In general, we tended to avoid short-term paper, preferring instead to build a defensive component in the portfolio through more marketable paper such as pre-refunded bonds, when available,(4) which are of high credit quality and offer high coupons. Reflecting improvements in state budgets, holdings in tax-based general obligation contributed to performance. Revenue bonds were also a positive factor later in the period. The Fund's and the Trust's portfolios are actively managed and, therefore, their holdings and the weightings of a particular issuer or particular sector as a percentage of portfolio assets are subject to change. (1) Lehman Municipal Long Current Bond Index is a total return benchmark designed for long-term municipal assets. The index includes bonds with a minimum credit rating of BAA3, bonds issued as part of a deal of at least $50 million, with an amount outstanding of at least $5 million, a maturity of twenty-two years or greater and have been issued after December 31, 1990. Indices are unmanaged, do not reflect the deduction of fees or expenses and are not available for direct investment. (2) Lipper Funds Average: Lipper Inc. is a nationally recognized organization that reports on mutual fund total return performance and calculates fund rankings. Peer averages are based on universes of funds with similar investment objectives. Peer group averages include reinvested dividends and capital gains, if any, and exclude sales charges.(C)2004 REUTERS. All rights reserved. Any copying, republication or redistribution of Lipper content is expressly prohibited without the prior written consent of Lipper. An investor cannot invest directly in an average or index. (3) Lehman Municipal Index is a broad measure of the municipal bond market with maturities of at least one year. To be included in this index, bonds must have a minimum credit rating of at least Baa, an outstanding par value of at least $3 million and be issued as part of a transaction of at least $50 million. Includes both zero coupon bonds and bonds subject to the Alternative Minimum Tax. Indices are unmanaged, do not reflect the deduction of fees or expenses and are not available for direct investment. (4) Pre-refunded bonds are older, tax-free bonds that typically pay coupons higher than current market rates and that have been refinanced or "prepaid" by the proceeds of a second bond issue. The proceeds of this second issuance are used to "call" or pay off the original issue at its first call date. Until that time, the monies are held in escrow and are usually invested in U.S. Treasuries. As a result, pre-refunded bonds are generally deemed to have virtually no default risk. Typically, when a bond becomes pre-refunded, it appreciates in value because of its higher credit quality and improved marketability. 3 <Page> - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- IMPORTANT PERFORMANCE AND OTHER INFORMATION THE VIEWS OF THE FUND'S AND TRUST'S MANAGEMENT AND THE PORTFOLIO HOLDINGS DESCRIBED IN THIS REPORT ARE AS OF MARCH 31, 2004; THESE VIEWS AND HOLDINGS MAY HAVE CHANGED SUBSEQUENT TO THIS DATE AND THEY DO NOT GUARANTEE THE FUTURE PERFORMANCE OF THE MARKETS OR THE FUND/TRUST.

SEE NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. 116 <Page> NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) 1. ORGANIZATION Lord Abbett Tax-Free Income Fund, Inc. (the "Company") and Lord Abbett Tax-Free Income Trust (the "Trust") are registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the "Act") as open-end management investment companies. The Company was organized as a Maryland corporation on December 27, 1983. The Trust was organized as a Massachusetts Business Trust on September 11, 1991 and was reorganized as a Delaware Business Trust on July 22, 2002. The Company consists of the following ten portfolios and their respective classes (separately, a "Fund" and collectively, the "Funds"): Lord Abbett National Tax-Free Income Fund ("National"), Class A, B, C and P shares; Lord Abbett California Tax-Free Income Fund ("California") and Lord Abbett New York Tax-Free Income Fund ("New York"), Class A, C and P shares; Lord Abbett Connecticut Tax-Free Income Fund ("Connecticut"), Lord Abbett Hawaii Tax-Free Income Fund ("Hawaii"), Lord Abbett Minnesota Tax-Free Income Fund ("Minnesota"), Lord Abbett Missouri Tax-Free Income Fund ("Missouri"), Lord Abbett New Jersey Tax-Free Income Fund ("New Jersey"), Lord Abbett Texas Tax-Free Income Fund ("Texas") and Lord Abbett Washington Tax-Free Income Fund ("Washington"), Class A and P shares. The Trust consists of the following five portfolios and their respective classes (separately, a "Fund" and collectively, the "Funds"): Florida Series ("Florida"), Class A, C and P shares; Georgia Series ("Georgia"), Michigan Series ("Michigan"), Pennsylvania Series ("Pennsylvania"), Class A and P shares, and Lord Abbett Insured Intermediate Tax-Free Fund ("Insured"), Class A, B, C and P. Each Fund is non-diversified as defined under the Act, except for National and Insured. As of the date of this report, only Insured has issued class P shares. The investment objective of each Fund is to seek the maximum amount of interest income exempt from federal income tax as is consistent with reasonable risk. Each Fund (except for National and Insured) also seeks as high a level of interest income exempt from the personal income tax of its state as is consistent with reasonable risk. New York also seeks as high a level of interest income exempt from New York City personal income tax as is consistent with reasonable risk. Each class has different expenses and dividends. A front-end sales charge is normally added to the Net Asset Value ("NAV") for Class A shares. There is no front-end sales charge in the case of the Class B, C and P shares, although there may be a contingent deferred sales charge ("CDSC") as follows: certain redemptions of Class A shares made within 24 months following any purchases made without a sales charge; Class B shares redeemed before the sixth anniversary of purchase; and Class C shares redeemed before the first anniversary of purchase. Class B shares will convert to Class A shares on the eighth anniversary of the original purchase of Class B shares. 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 increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (a) INVESTMENT VALUATION-Securities are valued at prices supplied by independent pricing services approved by the Directors/Trustees. Such prices reflect broker/dealer supplied valuations and electronic data processing techniques. Prices reflect the mean of the bid and asked prices. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at 117 <Page> NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)(CONTINUED) fair value, as determined by management and approved in good faith by the Board of Directors/Trustees. Short-term securities with 60 days or less remaining to maturity are valued using the amortized cost method, which approximates current market value. (b) SECURITY TRANSACTIONS-Security transactions are recorded as of the date that the securities are purchased or sold (trade date). Realized gains and losses from sales of portfolio securities are calculated using the identified-cost method. Realized and unrealized gains or losses are allocated to each class of shares, based upon the relative proportion of net assets at the beginning of the day. (c) INVESTMENT INCOME-Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Discounts are accreted and premiums are amortized using the effective interest method. Investment income is allocated to each class of shares based upon the relative proportion of net assets at the beginning of the day. (d) FEDERAL TAXES-It is the policy of each Fund to meet the requirements of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all taxable income and capital gains to its shareholders. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required. (e) EXPENSES-Expenses incurred by the Company and Trust that do not specifically relate to an individual Fund are allocated to the Funds on a pro-rata basis. Expenses, excluding class specific expenses, are allocated to each class of shares based upon the relative proportion of net assets at the beginning of the day. Class A, B, C and P shares bear all expenses and fees relating to their respective 12b-1 Distribution Plans. (f) OFFERING COSTS-Lord Abbett incurred initial offering costs on behalf of Insured that will be reimbursed by the Fund in full amount thereof. Such expenses were deferred and are being amortized on the straight-line method over a period of one year from the commencement of investment operations. (g) WHEN-ISSUED MUNICIPAL BONDS-Each Fund may purchase new issues of municipal bonds, which are generally offered on a when-issued basis, with delivery and payment normally taking place approximately one month after the purchase date. 3. MANAGEMENT FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES MANAGEMENT FEES The Company and Trust each have a management agreement with Lord, Abbett & Co. LLC ("Lord Abbett"), pursuant to which Lord Abbett supplies each Fund with investment management services and executive and other personnel, pays the remuneration of officers, provides office space and pays for ordinary and necessary office and clerical expenses relating to research and statistical work and supervision of each Fund's investment portfolio. The management fee is based on each Fund's average daily net assets for each month at an annual rate of .50% for all Funds, excluding Insured. The management fee for Insured is based on average daily net assets at the following annual rate: <Table> - ----------------------------------- First $2 Billion .45% Next $3 Billion .425% Over $5 Billion .40% </Table> 118 <Page> NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)(CONTINUED) For the six months ended March 31, 2004, Lord Abbett waived its management fee and reimbursed all other expenses (excluding 12b-1 service fees) for Insured. Lord Abbett provides certain administrative services to each Fund pursuant to an Administrative Services Agreement at an annual rate of .04% of each Fund's average daily net assets. 12b-1 DISTRIBUTION PLAN Each Fund has adopted a distribution plan with respect to one or more classes of shares pursuant to Rule 12b-1 of the Act, which provides for the payment of ongoing distribution and service fees to Lord Abbett Distributor LLC ("Distributor"), an affiliate of Lord Abbett. The fees are accrued daily at annual rates based upon average daily net assets as follows: <Table> <Caption> FEE CLASS A(1) CLASS B CLASS C CLASS P - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Service .25%(2) .25% .25% .25% Distribution .10%(3)(4) .75% .75% .20% </Table> (1) The Class A Plans of Minnesota, Washington, Georgia and Michigan will not go into effect until the quarter subsequent to the net assets of each of these Funds reaching $100 million. As of March 31, 2004, the net assets of each such Fund have not reached $100 million. (2) Annual service fee is .15% of the average daily net assets attributable to Class A shares sold prior to the following dates: <Table> <Caption> DATE - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- National, New York, Texas June 1, 1990 Hawaii January 1, 1993 New Jersey July 1, 1992 Florida October 1, 1992 Pennsylvania March 31, 1998 </Table> (3) In addition, the Funds pay a one-time distribution fee of up to 1% on certain qualifying purchases, which is generally amortized over a two-year period. (4) For the six months ended March 31, 2004, Lord Abbett reimbursed this portion of the fees payable under the plan for Insured Class A. COMMISSIONS Distributor received the following commissions on sales of Class A shares of the Funds, after concessions were paid to authorized dealers, for the six months ended March 31, 2004: <Table> <Caption> DISTRIBUTOR DEALERS' COMMISSIONS CONCESSIONS - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- National $ 57,625 $ 272,359 California 20,302 93,962 Connecticut 7,546 34,870 Hawaii 3,526 17,577 Minnesota 16,273 77,986 Missouri 34,201 162,310 New Jersey 13,821 63,036 New York 12,580 60,945 Texas 4,573 22,806 Washington 10,635 49,265 Insured 1,497 7,596 Florida 3,986 18,843 Georgia 47,244 223,793 Michigan 18,392 104,859 Pennsylvania 10,242 48,275 </Table> One Director/Trustee and certain of the Company's and Trust's officers have an interest in Lord Abbett. 119 <Page> NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)(CONTINUED) 4. DISTRIBUTIONS AND CAPITAL LOSS CARRYFORWARDS Dividends from net investment income, if any, are declared daily and paid monthly. Taxable net realized gains from investment transactions, reduced by capital loss carryforwards, if any, are declared and distributed to shareholders at least annually. The capital loss carryforward amount is available to offset future net capital gains. Dividends and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The amount of dividends and distributions from net investment income and net realized capital gains are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations which may differ from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These book/tax differences are either considered temporary or permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are permanent in nature, such amounts are reclassified within the components of net assets based on their federal tax basis treatment; temporary differences do not require reclassification. Dividends and distributions which exceed net investment income and net realized capital gains for tax purposes are reported as distributions of paid-in capital.

DIRECTORS'/TRUSTEES' REMUNERATION The Company's and Trust's officers and the one Director/Trustee who are associated with Lord Abbett do not receive any compensation from the Company or Trust for serving in such capacities. Outside Directors'/Trustees' fees are allocated among all Lord Abbett-sponsored funds based on the net assets of each fund. There is an equity based plan available to all outside Directors/Trustees under which outside Directors/Trustees must defer receipt of a portion of, and may elect to defer receipt of an additional portion of, Directors'/Trustees' fees. The deferred amounts are treated as though equivalent dollar amounts have been invested proportionately in the funds. Such amounts and earnings accrued thereon are included in Directors'/Trustees' fees on the Statements of Operations and in Directors'/Trustees' fees payable on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities and are not deductible for U.S. federal income tax purposes until such amounts are paid. 7. EXPENSE REDUCTIONS The Funds have entered into agreements with their transfer agent and/or custodian whereby credits realized as a result of uninvested cash balances are used to reduce a portion of the Funds' expenses. 8. CUSTODIAN AND ACCOUNTING AGENT State Street Bank and Trust Company ("SSB") is the Funds' custodian and accounting agent. SSB performs custodian, accounting and recordkeeping functions relating to portfolio transactions and calculating each Fund's NAV. 9. INVESTMENT RISKS Each Fund's performance and the value of its investments will vary in response to changes in interest rates and other market factors. As interest rates rise, a Fund's investments typically will lose value. This risk is usually greater for long-term bonds than for short-term bonds. As a result, the Funds, which tend to invest in longer-term bonds than many other municipal bond funds, normally will have more price volatility than those funds. Additional risks that could reduce each Fund's performance or increase volatility include call risk, governmental risk, legislative risk, management risk and credit risk. Credit risk varies among states based upon the economic and fiscal conditions of each state and the municipalities within the state. Each Fund (except National and Insured) is non-diversified which means that it may invest a greater portion of its assets in a single issuer than a diversified fund. Thus, it may be exposed to greater risk. Because each Fund other than National and Insured invests primarily in issuers of its particular state, its performance may be more affected by local, state and regional factors than a fund investing in municipal bonds issued in many states, such as National and Insured. These factors may include economic, political or state legislative developments, erosion of the tax base and the possibility of credit problems. In addition, downturns or developments in the U.S. economy or in foreign economies may harm the performance of each Fund, and may do so disproportionately as a result of the corresponding disproportionate impact of such occurrences on particular state, territory, or local economies. 123 <Page> NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)(CONTINUED) Each Fund may invest up to 20% of its net assets in residual interest bonds ("RIBs"). RIBs, sometimes referred to as inverse floaters, are debt instruments with a floating or variable interest rate that moves in the opposite direction of the interest rate on another security or the value of an index. Changes in the interest rate on the other security or index inversely affect the residual interest paid on the RIB, with the result that when interest rates rise, RIBs make lower interest payments and their values fall faster than fixed-rate bonds. But, when interest rates fall, not only do RIBs make higher interest payments, their values also rise faster than fixed-rate bonds. Each Fund may purchase securities on a forward commitment or when-issued basis. Delivery and payment for such securities can take place a month or more after the transaction date. During this period such securities are subject to market fluctuations. 10. SUMMARY OF CAPITAL TRANSACTIONS The Company has 1,000,000,000 authorized shares of capital stock (par value $.001) of which 900,000,000 are issued and allocated as follows: 150,000,000 to National, 110,000,000 to each of California, New Jersey, and New York, and 70,000,000 to each of Connecticut, Hawaii, Minnesota, Missouri, Texas, and Washington. The Trust has an unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest authorized. <Table> <Caption> SIX MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2004 (UNAUDITED) --------------------------------------------------------------------- CONNECTICUT HAWAII MINNESOTA MISSOURI NEW JERSEY -
