PAST PERFORMANCE IS NO GUARANTEE OF FUTURE RESULTS. SEE PERFORMANCE SUMMARY FOR STANDARDIZED PERFORMANCE INFORMATION. MARKET CONDITIONS The first three months of the period were marked by strong performance across most major markets and sectors. Investors' expectations for continued growth and low interest rates led to a sustained rally in economically sensitive sectors such as industrials and basic materials, and markets with a preponderance of cyclical stocks generally outperformed. This pattern began to reverse in February 2004 when the U.S. Federal Open Market Committee (the "Fed") abandoned its stated stance of "patience" with regard to interest rates. U.S. employment figures also began to exceed expectations, while many investors began to fear that the Chinese government might take excessive steps to cool that country's robust economy. These concerns led many investors to reallocate their portfolios toward more defensive sectors, which outperformed cyclical sectors in the last months of the period. Performance was largely positive across the world's markets, though results varied widely. European markets had the highest returns as a group, with smaller markets such as Portugal, Spain and Greece leading the pack. (Europe was also home to the only market to decline in the period -- Finland.) Within Asia, Japan was able to keep pace with Europe, while many of the smaller markets -- especially Singapore and Hong Kong -- lagged in concert with China's sell-off late in the period. PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS Morgan Stanley International Fund underperformed both its benchmarks, the MSCI EAFE Index ("EAFE") and the Lipper International Funds Index, for the six months ended April 30, 2004. We adhered to our top-down approach during the period, focusing on finding markets and sectors with a combination of attractive valuations, fundamentals and technical factors. This approach led us to take a number of positions that met our criteria but did not produce outperformance. One of these was an overweighted position in Germany relative to the EAFE. The market was appealing on the basis of fundamentals because of its potential for positive surprises in terms of economic growth and reform. The market's generally negative consensus also created an appealingly low level of valuations. However, the market stalled in mid January 2004 after rising sharply, and as a result the overweighted position proved a drag on the Fund's performance. The Fund's holdings in several key Asian emerging markets (notably Hong Kong, Singapore and China) also held the Fund back, as these countries underperformed EAFE. The 2 <Page> portfolio's below-benchmark weighting in the U.K. market initially helped performance as that area lagged its European peers in the early months of the period. This position proved less beneficial later, however, when the U.K. market began to outperform, thanks to the preponderance of defensive consumer stocks on the British exchange. Our approach also resulted in several positions with above-market performance. Entering the period, the energy sector offered a compelling combination of low valuations and positive fundamentals driven by high oil prices. We built an overweighted position relative to the EAFE, which proved highly beneficial, as the sector went on to outperform the market. The portfolio also benefited from a below-benchmark position in Australia, which was based on our assessment of unattractive valuations and vulnerable fundamentals. Exposure to key smaller markets, including an above-benchmark weighting in Austria as well as small positions in Russia, India and Thailand, also helped performance. 3 <Page> TOP 10 HOLDINGS <Table> BP 2.8% Vodafone Group 2.3 HSBC Holdings 1.8 Total 1.7 Toyota Motor 1.6 Novartis 1.4 GlaxoSmithKline 1.4 Royal Dutch Petroleum 1.4 Telefonica 1.4 UBS 1.2 </Table> TOP FIVE COUNTRIES <Table> Japan 25.7% United Kingdom 21.2 France 8.8 Switzerland 6.7 Germany 6.0 </Table> DATA AS OF APRIL 30, 2004.

APRIL 30, 2004 (UNAUDITED) 1. ORGANIZATION AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES Morgan Stanley International Fund (the "Fund") is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "Act"), as a diversified, open-end management investment company. The Fund's investment objective is long-term capital growth. The Fund was organized as a Massachusetts business trust on October 23, 1998 and commenced operations June 28, 1999. The Fund offers Class A shares, Class B shares, Class C shares and Class D shares. The four classes are substantially the same except that most Class A shares are subject to a sales charge imposed at the time of purchase and some Class A shares, and most Class B shares and Class C shares are subject to a contingent deferred sales charge imposed on shares redeemed within one year, six years and one year, respectively. Class D shares are not subject to a sales charge. Additionally, Class A shares, Class B shares and Class C shares incur distribution expenses. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies: A. VALUATION OF INVESTMENTS -- (1) an equity portfolio security listed or traded on the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") or American Stock Exchange or other exchange is valued at its latest sale price prior to the time when assets are valued; if there were no sales that day, the security is valued at the mean between the last reported bid and asked price; (2) an equity portfolio security listed or traded on the Nasdaq is valued at the Nasdaq Official Closing Price; if there were no sales that day, the security is valued at the mean between the last reported bid and asked price; (3) all other portfolio securities for which over-the-counter market quotations are readily available are valued at the mean between the last reported bid and asked price. In cases where a security is traded on more than one exchange, the security is valued on the exchange designated as the primary market; (4) for equity securities traded on foreign exchanges, the last reported sale price or the latest bid price may be used if there were no sales on a particular day; (5) futures are valued at the latest price published by the commodities exchange on which they trade; (6) when market quotations are not readily available or Morgan Stanley Investment Advisors Inc. (the "Investment Manager"), determines that the latest sale price, the bid price or the mean between the last reported bid and asked price do not reflect a security's market value, portfolio securities are valued at their fair value as determined in good faith under procedures established by and under the general supervision of the Fund's Trustees. Occasionally, developments affecting the closing prices of securities and other assets may occur between the times at which valuations of such securities are determined (that is, close of the foreign market on which the securities trade) and the close of business on the NYSE. If developments occur during such periods that are expected to materially affect the value of such securities, such valuations may be adjusted to reflect the estimated fair value of such securities as of the close of the NYSE, as determined in good faith by the Fund's Trustees or by the Investment Manager using a pricing service and/or procedures approved by the Trustees of the Fund; (7) certain portfolio securities may be valued by an outside pricing service 36 <Page> approved by the Fund's Trustees; and (8) short-term debt securities having a maturity date of more than sixty days at time of purchase are valued on a mark-to-market basis until sixty days prior to maturity and thereafter at amortized cost based on their value on the 61st day. Short-term debt securities having a maturity date of sixty days or less at the time of purchase are valued at amortized cost. B. ACCOUNTING FOR INVESTMENTS -- Security transactions are accounted for on the trade date (date the order to buy or sell is executed). Realized gains and losses on security transactions are determined by the identified cost method. Dividend income and other distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date except for certain dividends on foreign securities which are recorded as soon as the Fund is informed after the ex-dividend date. Discounts are accreted and premiums are amortized over the life of the respective securities. Interest income is accrued daily. C. REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS -- Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Fund, along with other affiliated entities managed by the Investment Manager, may transfer uninvested cash balances into one or more joint repurchase agreement accounts. These balances are invested in one or more repurchase agreements and are collateralized by cash, U.S. Treasury or federal agency obligations. The Fund may also invest directly with institutions in repurchase agreements. The Fund's custodian receives the collateral, which is marked-to-market daily to determine that the value of the collateral does not decrease below the repurchase price plus accrued interest. D. MULTIPLE CLASS ALLOCATIONS -- Investment income, expenses (other than distribution fees), and realized and unrealized gains and losses are allocated to each class of shares based upon the relative net asset value on the date such items are recognized. Distribution fees are charged directly to the respective class. E. FUTURES CONTRACTS -- A futures contract is an agreement between two parties to buy and sell financial instruments or contracts based on financial indices at a set price on a future date. Upon entering into such a contract, the Fund is required to pledge to the broker cash, U.S. Government securities or other liquid portfolio securities equal to the minimum initial margin requirements of the applicable futures exchange. Pursuant to the contract, the Fund agrees to receive from or pay to the broker an amount of cash equal to the daily fluctuation in the value of the contract. Such receipts or payments known as variation margin are recorded by the Fund as unrealized gains and losses. Upon closing of the contract, the Fund realizes a gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed. F. FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION AND FORWARD FOREIGN CURRENCY CONTRACTS -- The books and records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars as follows: (1) the foreign currency market value of investment securities, other assets and liabilities and forward foreign currency contracts ("forward contracts") are translated at the exchange rates prevailing at the end of the period; and (2) purchases, sales, income 37 <Page> and expenses are translated at the exchange rates prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions. The resultant exchange gains and losses are recorded as realized and unrealized gain/loss on foreign exchange transactions. Pursuant to U.S. federal income tax regulations, certain foreign exchange gains/losses included in realized and unrealized gain/loss are included in or are a reduction of ordinary income for federal income tax purposes. The Fund does not isolate that portion of the results of operations arising as a result of changes in the foreign exchange rates from the changes in the market prices of the securities. Forward contracts are valued daily at the appropriate exchange rates. The resultant unrealized exchange gains and losses are recorded as unrealized foreign currency gain or loss. The Fund records realized gains or losses on delivery of the currency or at the time the forward contract is extinguished (compensated) by entering into a closing transaction prior to delivery. G. FEDERAL INCOME TAX POLICY -- It is the Fund's policy to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all of its taxable income to its shareholders. Accordingly, no federal income tax provision is required. H. DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS -- Dividends and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. I. USE OF ESTIMATES -- The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures. Actual results could differ from those estimates. 2. INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT AND SUB-ADVISORY AGREEMENTS Pursuant to an Investment Management Agreement, the Fund pays the Investment Manager a management fee, accrued daily and payable monthly, by applying the following annual rates to the net assets of the Fund determined at the close of each business day: 1.0% to the portion of daily net assets not exceeding $1 billion and 0.95% to the portion of daily net assets in excess of $1 billion. Prior to December 30, 2003, under a Sub-Advisory Agreement between Morgan Stanley Investment Management Inc. ("the Sub-Advisor") and the Investment Manager, the Sub-Advisor provided the Fund with investment advice and portfolio management relating to the Fund's investments in securities, subject to the overall supervision of the Investment Manager. Effective December 30, 2003, the Investment Manager assumed the Sub-Advisor's responsibility. For the period November 1, 2003 through December 29, 2003, the Investment Manager paid the Sub-Advisor compensation of $281,312. 38 <Page> 3. PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION Shares of the Fund are distributed by Morgan Stanley Distributors Inc. (the "Distributor"), an affiliate of the Investment Manager. The Fund has adopted a Plan of Distribution (the "Plan") pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Act. The Plan provides that the Fund will pay the Distributor a fee which is accrued daily and paid monthly at the following annual rates: (i) Class A -- up to 0.25% of the average daily net assets of Class A; (ii) Class B -- 1.0% of the average daily net assets of Class B; and (iii) Class C -- up to 1.0% of the average daily net assets of Class C. In the case of Class B shares, provided that the Plan continues in effect, any cumulative expenses incurred by the Distributor but not yet recovered may be recovered through the payment of future distribution fees from the Fund pursuant to the Plan and contingent deferred sales charges paid by investors upon redemption of Class B shares. Although there is no legal obligation for the Fund to pay expenses incurred in excess of payments made to the Distributor under the Plan and the proceeds of contingent deferred sales charges paid by investors upon redemption of shares, if for any reason the Plan is terminated, the Trustees will consider at that time the manner in which to treat such expenses. The Distributor has advised the Fund that such excess amounts totaled $21,439,928 at April 30, 2004. In the case of Class A shares and Class C shares, expenses incurred pursuant to the Plan in any calendar year in excess of 0.25% or 1.0% of the average daily net assets of Class A or Class C, respectively, will not be reimbursed by the Fund through payments in any subsequent year, except that expenses representing a gross sales credit to Morgan Stanley Financial Advisors or other selected broker-dealer representatives may be reimbursed in the subsequent calendar year. For the six months ended April 30, 2004, the distribution fee was accrued for Class A shares and Class C shares at the annual rate of 0.22% and 0.96%, respectively. The Distributor has informed the Fund that for the six months ended April 30, 2004, it received contingent deferred sales charges from certain redemptions of the Fund's Class A shares, Class B shares and Class C shares of $1,644, $275,935 and $1,051, respectively and received $41,632 in front-end sales charges from sales of the Fund's Class A shares. The respective shareholders pay such charges which are not an expense of the Fund. 4. SECURITY TRANSACTIONS AND TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES The cost of purchases and proceeds from sales of portfolio securities, excluding short-term investments, for the six months ended April 30, 2004 aggregated $102,414,633 and $133,796,581, respectively. 39 <Page> Morgan Stanley Trust, an affiliate of the Investment Manager, Sub-Advisor and Distributor, is the Fund's transfer agent. At April 30, 2004, the Fund had transfer agent fees and expenses payable of approximately $7,000. Effective April 1, 2004, the Fund began an unfunded Deferred Compensation Plan (the "Compensation Plan"), which allows each independent Trustee to defer payment of all, or a portion, of the fees he receives for serving on the Board of Trustees. Each eligible Trustee generally may elect to have the deferred amounts credited with a return equal to the total return on one or more of the Morgan Stanley funds that are offered as investment options under the Compensation Plan. Appreciation/depreciation and distributions received from these investments are recorded with an offsetting increase/decrease in the deferred compensation obligation and do not affect the net asset value of the Fund. 5.

PURPOSES OF AND RISKS RELATING TO CERTAIN FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS The Fund may enter into forward contracts to facilitate settlement of foreign currency denominated portfolio transactions or to manage foreign currency exposure associated with foreign currency denominated securities. The Fund may also purchase and sell interest rate, currency and index futures contracts ("futures contracts") that are traded on U.S. and foreign commodity exchanges on such underlying securities as U.S. Treasury bonds, notes, bills and GNMA certificates and/or any foreign government fixed-income security, on various currencies and on such indexes of U.S. and foreign securities as may exist or come into existence. Forward contracts and futures contracts involve elements of market risk in excess of the amounts reflected in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The Fund bears the risk of an unfavorable change in the foreign exchange rates underlying the forward contracts or an unfavorable change in the value of the underlying securities. Risks may also arise upon entering into these contracts from the potential inability of the counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts. At April 30, 2004, investments in securities of issuers in Japan represented 25.7% of the Fund's net assets. These investments, as well as other non-U.S. investments, which involve risks and considerations not present with respect to U.S. securities, may be affected by economic or political developments in this region. At April 30, 2004, the Fund's cash balance consisted principally of interest bearing deposits with J.P. Morgan Chase, the Fund's custodian. 7. FEDERAL INCOME TAX STATUS 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 generally accepted accounting principles. 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 capital accounts 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. As of October 31, 2003, the Fund had net capital loss carryforward of $183,733,776 of which $35,159,161 will expire on October 31, 2009, $93,856,873 will expire on October 31, 2010 and $54, 717,742 will expire on October 31, 2011 to offset future capital gains to the extent provided by regulations. 41 <Page> As of October 31, 2003, the Fund had temporary book/tax differences primarily attributable to the mark-to-market of passive foreign investment companies, foreign tax credit pass-through and capital loss deferrals on wash sales. 8. LEGAL MATTERS The Investment Manager, certain affiliates of the Investment Manager, certain officers of such affiliates and certain investment companies advised by the Investment Manager or its affiliates, including the Fund, are named as defendants in a number of similar class action complaints which were recently consolidated. This consolidated action also names as defendants certain individual Trustees and Directors of the Morgan Stanley funds. The consolidated amended complaint generally alleges that defendants, including the Fund, violated their statutory disclosure obligations and fiduciary duties by failing properly to disclose (i) that the Investment Manager and certain affiliates of the Investment Manager allegedly offered economic incentives to brokers and others to recommend the funds advised by the Investment Manager or its affiliates to investors rather than funds managed by other companies, and (ii) that the funds advised by the Investment Manager or its affiliates, including the Fund, allegedly paid excessive commissions to brokers in return for their efforts to recommend these funds to investors. The complaint seeks, among other things, unspecified compensatory damages, rescissionary damages, fees and costs. The defendants intend to move to dismiss the action and otherwise vigorously to defend it. While the Fund believes that it has meritorious defenses, the ultimate outcome of this matter is not presently determinable at this early stage of the litigation, and no provision has been made in the Fund's financial statements for the effect, if any, of this matter. 42 <Page> MORGAN STANLEY INTERNATIONAL FUND FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS Selected ratios and per share data for a share of beneficial interest outstanding throughout each period: <Table> <Caption> FOR THE PERIOD FOR THE SIX FOR THE YEAR ENDED OCTOBER 31, JUNE 28, 1999* MONTHS ENDED ----------------------------------------------- THROUGH APRIL 30, 2004 2003 2002 2001 2000 OCTOBER 31, 1999 -------------- -------- -------- -------- -------- ---------------- (UNAUDITED) CLASS A SHARES SELECTED PER SHARE DATA: Net asset value, beginning of period $ 8.03 $ 6.70 $ 7.77 $ 10.29 $ 10.57 $ 10.00 -------------- -------- -------- -------- -------- ---------------- Income (loss) from investment operations: Net investment income++ 0.03 0.08 0.04 0.06 0.11 0.01 Net realized and unrealized gain (loss) 0.84 1.33 (1.03) (2.07) (0.39) 0.56 -------------- -------- -------- -------- -------- ---------------- Total income (loss) from investment operations 0.87 1.41 (0.99) (2.01) (0.28) 0.57 -------------- -------- -------- -------- -------- ---------------- Less dividends and distributions from: Net investment income (0.10) (0.08) (0.08) - - - Net realized gain - - - (0.51) - - -------------- -------- -------- -------- -------- ---------------- Total dividends and distributions (0.10) (0.08) (0.08) (0.51) - - -------------- -------- -------- -------- -------- ---------------- Net asset value, end of period $ 8.80 $ 8.03 $ 6.70 $ 7.77 $ 10.29 $ 10.57 ============== ======== ======== ======== ======== ================ TOTAL RETURN+ 10.72%(1) 21.31% (12.93)% (20.36)% (2.65)% 5.70%(1) RATIOS TO AVERAGE NET ASSETS(3): Expenses 1.55%(2) 1.58% 1.56% 1.46%(4) 1.47% 1.81%(2) Net investment income 0.61%(2) 1.02% 0.54% 0.73% 0.95% 0.31%(2) SUPPLEMENTAL DATA: Net assets, end of period, in thousands $ 79,889 $ 63,422 $ 44,373 $ 37,974 $ 46,535 $ 38,506 Portfolio turnover rate 23%(1) 43% 39% 37% 84% 14%(1) </Table> - ---------- * COMMENCEMENT OF OPERATIONS. ++ THE PER SHARE AMOUNTS WERE COMPUTED USING AN AVERAGE NUMBER OF SHARES OUTSTANDING DURING THE PERIOD. + DOES NOT REFLECT THE DEDUCTION OF SALES CHARGE.
