The pace and strength of economic growth came into question, and this uncertainty created a higher degree of anxiety than that seen in the final months of 2004. By the end of the reporting period, indications that the U.S. economy remained on track, bolstered sentiment, and offset some concerns about high oil prices, inflation and global economic growth. Domestic Equity Overview Following an equity rally in the final months of 2004, 2005 opened on a much less optimistic note. Sentiment shifted and stocks retreated as investors sold shares to lock in gains. Against the backdrop of rising oil prices, mixed economic data, continued increases to the federal funds target rate, and the prospect of a global economic slowdown, investors began to worry about the prospect of "stagflation" (a climate marked by both stagnant growth and inflation). Anxiety increased as disappointing news from corporate bellwethers General Motors and Ford Motor cast a shadow across the auto and auto-related industries, and the market overall. However, after reaching a low point in April, the market rebounded during the final two months of the period. Encouraging retail sales and payroll data, an upward revision of first-quarter gross domestic product, and strengthening consumer confidence were among the factors that raised investor sentiment. Investors also seemed encouraged by merger and acquisition activity and by signals that the Federal Reserve might be nearing the end of its rate tightening cycle. During this period, large-cap stocks gained back ground, though not as much as their small- and mid-cap counterparts. Within the S&P 500(R) Index, the energy, utilities, and healthcare sectors posted particularly good gains. Energy stocks were well positioned to profit from high commodity prices and supply concerns. Utilities also benefited from increasing energy costs, as well as from the market's hunger for yield-oriented investments. After struggling in 2004, healthcare stocks rebounded, driven by strength in healthcare providers and services. The group was helped by abating negative sentiment and the prospect of further industry consolidation. In contrast, the materials, technology and consumer discretionary sectors lagged. Materials stocks were hindered due to investors' anticipation of slowing worldwide growth and rising production costs, while technology languished as a long-awaited spending recovery had yet to take hold. The consumer discretionary sector was held back primarily by weakness in auto, auto-related and media stocks. Fixed-Income Overview As expected, the Federal Open Market Committee (the "Fed") increased the federal funds target rate at each of its four meetings in the first half of 2005. Consequently, the benchmark overnight rate increased <Page> from 2.25 percent at the beginning of the review period to 3.25 percent at the end. Despite the actions of the Fed, most U.S. Treasury yields fell during the second half of the six-month period, erasing all of the gains posted by long-term Treasuries and much of the gains posted by short- and intermediate-term Treasuries during the first half of the six-month period. Nevertheless, the period concluded on a positive note, with bond markets achieving positive returns during the month of June. It is important to note, however, that as of the end of the period, we have yet to see the full effects of the Fed's actions on economic activity. For the most part, the market's concerns over rising energy prices and inflation as well as faltering growth have muted the impact of the Fed's rate increases. With two-year and five-year Treasuries near the 3.6 percent to 3.7 percent area at the end of June, the market reflects neither underlying fundamental trends nor a more likely course for Fed policy. Among government-related issues, the Treasury sector outperformed and rebounded from earlier losses during the latter months of the period. However, the relative lack of yield offered by Treasuries caused them to underperform other non-government sectors. Agency debenture yield spreads narrowed slightly during the second quarter. Mortgage-backed issues as a group ended the period largely where they began. After generating good performance in January, spreads widened over the next three months and much of the excess return was lost. However, the sector managed to make some of it back in the last two months, ending the period flat. The credit sector underperformed during the first half of the year, with higher-quality credits outperforming their medium- and lower-quality counterparts. The brunt of this weakness came from the industrial sector, while the financial and utilities sectors posted the highest returns. Among the corporate sub-sectors, autos was the worst performing due, for the most part, to news that General Motors had lowered it earnings guidance for the balance of 2005 and that Standard & Poor's downgrades GM and Ford Motor to below investment-grade. Banking was the best performing sub-sector. International Equity Overview Against a backdrop of mixed sentiment and exceptionally high oil prices, global equity markets slowed overall during the six-month period ended June 30, 2005. While the leveling off of the United States economy was not surprising, given the good clip of growth in 2004 and the continued tightening in the federal funds target rate, the declines in Europe were more unsettling. Economies which had performed strongly, such as Sweden and the United Kingdom, lost ground. A strong euro (which can hurt exports) and high oil prices contributed to falling business confidence and a lack of momentum. Industrial production, consumer confidence and retail sales faltered significantly. Export activity, typically an area of strength in 2 <Page> the European economy, also weakened due to slowing demand from China. In the United Kingdom, consumers retrenched markedly as protracted weakness in the housing market spilled over to the retailing sector. As these trends unfolded, speculation increased that the Bank of England and the European Central Bank would reduce rates to stimulate growth. Sweden's central bank, meanwhile, did move forward with a rate reduction. Japan, meanwhile, showed signs of improvement. Despite recent weakness in its consumer economy and its dependence on demand from China, Japan's gross domestic product data was revised upward, deflationary pressures continued to abate, and banks made progress in clearing problem loans from their books. Within many emerging market countries, strong macroeconomic policies, appreciating currencies and record corporate earnings contributed to considerable gains in their markets. Rising commodity prices also benefited emerging market economies, as these countries have historically been the world's leading producers in many commodities. American Opportunities Portfolio For the six-month period ended June 30, 2005, American Opportunities Portfolio Class X shares produced a total return of -1.31 percent versus -1.72 percent for the Russell 1000(R) Growth Index(1).

Overall, favorable sector allocation drove outperformance relative to the Russell 1000(R) Growth benchmark, offsetting stock selection, which detracted. Within the energy sector, the Portfolio benefited from positions in crude oil producers and coal stocks. International integrated oil stocks further enhanced performance. Within financial services, contributors included securities brokerage and services and multi-line insurance stocks. Relative performance was also helped by positioning in the healthcare management services and medical-and-dental instruments-and-supplies industries. - ---------- (1) THE RUSSELL 1000 (R) GROWTH INDEX MEASURES THE PERFORMANCE OF THOSE COMPANIES IN THE RUSSELL 1000 (R) INDEX WITH HIGHER PRICE-TO-BOOK RATIOS AND HIGHER FORECASTED GROWTH VALUES.

Within the consumer discretionary sector, exposure to the Internet and hotel/motel industry tempered overall gains. An underweighted position relative to the benchmark in drug and grocery store chains impeded performance. The Portfolio's technology stake modestly detracted from performance, due to stock selection in the communications technology industry.

Balanced Growth Portfolio For the six-month period ended June 30, 2005, Balanced Growth Portfolio Class X shares posted a total return of 2.62 percent versus 1.76 percent for the Russell 1000(R) Value Index(2) and 2.51 percent for the Lehman Brothers U.S. Aggregate Index(3).

Energy holdings added the most to the Portfolio's overall return. Refining companies led the group, driven by the wider profit margins gained from the high price of crude oil. These companies' budgets were structured based on oil prices estimated in the $25 to $30 per barrel range. As crude climbed north of $50 per barrel, the refiners were able to capture significantly higher than expected operating margins. Exposure to health care equipment and services stocks generated particularly strong performance among the Portfolio's health care holdings, due to company specific positive events. Utilities stocks performed well for the Portfolio, as these companies successfully passed higher fuel costs onto their customers. The market also rewarded utilities companies for their defensive traits and yield potential. Weakness in the Portfolio came from the consumer discretionary sector, primarily media-related holdings. Radio companies continued to struggle with generating advertising revenues -- typically a mainstay of their earnings -- as the radio industry contended with alternative formats, such as satellite radio and the Apple iPod and its imitators. Industrials and telecommunication services also detracted from the Portfolio's - ---------- (2) THE RUSSELL 1000 (R) VALUE INDEX MEASURES THE PERFORMANCE OF THOSE COMPANIES IN THE RUSSELL 1000 (R) INDEX WITH LOWER PRICE -TO-BOOK RATIOS AND LOWER FORECASTED GROWTH VALUES.

Unlike utilities companies, industrial companies have been unable to transfer their higher raw material costs to their customers. Telecommunication services have continued to languish under the industry's overcapacity, and face a new threat from cable phone service. The Portfolio's fixed income position slightly added to performance. The portfolio included investment-grade corporate bonds and Treasury securities. This emphasis on credit quality served the Portfolio well, as the market favored these sectors over more risky high-yield issuers. During the six-month period, the Portfolio's stock and bond proportions remained fairly constant. As of the end of the reporting period, the Portfolio held 68 percent in stocks and 9 percent in bonds.

Stock selection across a range of industries drove the Portfolio's outperformance, offsetting sector allocations, which detracted modestly. Areas of strength included financial services, consumer discretionary and energy. In its financial services stake, the Portfolio's diversified financial services contributed positively. Within consumer discretionary, stock selection in the Internet and retail industries buoyed returns. Among the Portfolio's energy holdings, crude oil producers were notable contributors. - ---------- (4) THE RUSSELL 3000 (R) GROWTH INDEX MEASURES THE PERFORMANCE OF THOSE COMPANIES IN THE RUSSELL 3000 (R) INDEX WITH HIGHER PRICE-TO-BOOK RATIOS AND HIGHER FORECASTED GROWTH VALUES.

Within the Portfolio's healthcare holdings, biotechnology, and drugs and pharmaceuticals detracted from relative performance. In consumer staples, an underweighted position relative to the Russell 3000(R) Growth Index in the drugs and grocery store chain industry detracted. Also on the downside, the Portfolio's consumer discretionary allocation was hindered by disadvantageous positioning in commercial services and hotel/motel stocks. Computer services and software systems slowed the Portfolio's pace as well. THERE IS NO GUARANTEE THAT ANY SECTORS MENTIONED WILL CONTINUE TO PERFORM WELL OR THAT SECURITIES IN SUCH SECTORS WILL BE HELD BY THE PORTFOLIO IN THE FUTURE.

Stock selection across a diverse group of industries was the primary driver of performance, while sector allocations were also favorable. Areas of strength included the technology, financial services, and materials and processing sectors. Within its technology exposure, the Portfolio benefited from exposure to the computer services and software systems, and communication technology industries. Returns were boosted by diversified financial services stocks. Additionally, a number of banking companies included in the benchmark did not meet our investment criteria. The decision to avoid these companies helped relative performance. In the materials and processing area, relative returns were enhanced by positions in building materials and miscellaneous metals and materials companies. Within the producer durable sector, telecommunications equipment exposure benefited the Portfolio's relative performance. In contrast, within the Portfolio's healthcare stake, stock selection in drugs and pharmaceutical companies detracted. Also, within consumer discretionary, pockets of weakness included hotel/motel stocks and consumer electronics stocks. In the producer durables area, home building stocks had a detrimental impact.

For the same period, the Portfolio's Class Y shares returned - -1.42 percent. PAST PERFORMANCE IS NO GUARANTEE OF FUTURE RESULTS. THE PERFORMANCE OF THE PORTFOLIO'S TWO SHARE CLASSES VARIES BECAUSE EACH HAS DIFFERENT EXPENSES. THE PORTFOLIO'S TOTAL RETURNS ASSUME THE REINVESTMENT OF ALL DISTRIBUTIONS BUT DO NOT REFLECT THE DEDUCTION OF ANY CHARGES BY YOUR INSURANCE COMPANY. SUCH COSTS WOULD LOWER PERFORMANCE. Factors contributing positively to relative performance included security selection within the consumer staples, health care, and consumer discretionary sectors. Among the Portfolio's consumer staples holdings, particular strength was seen in food and staples retailer and beverage exposure. The Portfolio was also well served by positions in healthcare providers and services and healthcare equipment stocks. Also on the upside, relative to the benchmark index, the Portfolio included less exposure to the struggling consumer discretionary sector. Moreover, in addition to its overall reduced emphasis, the Portfolio benefited from strong stock selection within this sector; multi-line retail stock exposure enhanced returns markedly. In contrast to these positive factors, the Portfolio's focus on mega-cap names impeded relative performance. In the final months of the reporting period, mega-cap stocks did not regain as much ground as their large- and mid-cap counterparts. Within the Portfolio's energy stake, for example, a focus on mega-caps hindered performance relative to the benchmark. While the Portfolio's energy holdings performed quite well in absolute terms, they were not able to keep up with the more robust returns of other smaller energy stocks within the S&P 500(R) Index. Security selection within technology also detracted from performance, driven by company-specific weakness in certain hardware and telecommunications equipment holdings. The Portfolio's financial stocks tempered gains as well, with specific holdings in the consumer finance and capital markets industries being the primary detractors.

THE PORTFOLIO'S TOTAL RETURNS ASSUME THE REINVESTMENT OF ALL DISTRIBUTIONS BUT DO NOT REFLECT THE DEDUCTION OF ANY CHARGES BY YOUR INSURANCE COMPANY. SUCH COSTS WOULD LOWER PERFORMANCE. The Portfolio benefited most from energy and healthcare stocks. High oil prices supported many energy companies that deal with crude oil, including those in the exploration and production, drilling equipment and services, and refining industries. Healthcare facilities, services and supplies companies largely drove gains within the healthcare sector. Additionally, both the energy and healthcare areas were well positioned to profit from investors' preference for "defensive" areas of the market, given the uncertainties of the rising interest rate and rising oil price environment. The Portfolio's chief detractors were in the technology, materials and consumer discretionary sectors. Technology companies across the board continued to struggle. Despite improved earnings and increased cash reserves, corporations remained reluctant to open their budgets for technology outlays. Materials stocks lagged the market as rising commodity prices increased the production costs of papers, chemicals, and metals. These companies must absorb the higher costs, eroding their profits. Within the consumer discretionary space, automobile and media stocks were among the worst performing groups. Furthermore, because consumer discretionary represented the Portfolio's largest sector weighting (but a smaller proportion of the market-capitalization weighted S&P 500(R) Index) the impact of negative performance in that sector was amplified within the portfolio.

Within the investment grade portion of the Portfolio, an underweighted position relative to the benchmark in banking and finance as well as energy contributed positively to relative performance. Within the global portion of the Portfolio, non-U.S. holdings were hurt by the appreciation of the U.S. dollar relative to other currencies. During the period, the high yield portion of the Portfolio benefited from advantageous positioning in transportation securities, where our investment discipline had led us to de-emphasize struggling auto and auto related companies. Security selection in wireless communications also enhanced performance. The sector performed well overall, and several of the Portfolio's positions were particularly rewarded for their strong fundamentals. In contrast, forest products, housing and manufacturing securities slowed the Portfolio's pace. Within housing, exposure to highly leveraged building product companies hindered performance as investors worried about a potential decline in home construction. Forest and manufacturing securities detracted from overall returns due to company-specific reasons. The Portfolio's mortgage position, specifically the emphasis on higher coupon, slow prepaying mortgages, had a positive impact on relative performance. These types of mortgages tend to be less sensitive to rising interest rates than lower-coupon, fast pre-paying mortgages. We kept the Portfolio's overall interest-rate exposure well below that of its benchmark during the period. This posture was beneficial as interest rates rose across the short- and intermediate-portions of the curve. That said, we note that during periods of rate declines, this position may be a hindrance to relative performance.

THE PORTFOLIO'S TOTAL RETURNS ASSUME THE REINVESTMENT OF ALL DISTRIBUTIONS BUT DO NOT REFLECT THE DEDUCTION OF ANY CHARGES BY YOUR INSURANCE COMPANY. SUCH COSTS WOULD LOWER PERFORMANCE. During the reporting period, the Portfolio benefited from its underweighting in the United Kingdom relative to the MSCI World Index. Prior to the Federal Open Market Committee's move to increase the federal funds target rate in the United States, the Bank of England had embarked upon a tightening program. We were concerned that such a course could signal economic slowdown in the United Kingdom, which did come to pass. Relative performance was also helped by underweighting Japan. This position was underpinned by our concerns that although banks were clearing problem loans from their books and stocks appeared attractively valued, the economy was still not on a sufficiently strong footing for sustainable growth. In addition to these geographic underweightings, the Portfolio was well served from an underweighted position in consumer discretionary stocks - specifically autos, retailers and consumer durables. Our reduced emphasis on this sector was influenced by our analysis of U.S. climate, notably rising short-term interest rates, the prospect of slowing economic growth and mixed labor market data. An underweighting of rate-sensitive financials stocks proved advantageous as the yield curve flattened. Returns were further buoyed by an overweight in technology hardware. European semiconductor stocks were particularly robust performers. We had established positions based on our view that the stocks were attractively priced given their improving fundamentals. During the period, the market rewarded these companies as their prospects for the second half of 2005 became clearer. Not all positions performed as well, however. The Portfolio was overweighted relative to the benchmark in the continental Europe region. Our optimism was supported by cheap stock price valuations, attractive dividend yields and the potential for positive earnings surprises driven by corporate cost cutting. However, the economies of the region generally slowed: High oil prices, a strong Euro (which can weaken exports) combined with weakening trends in consumer confidence, industrial production and retail sales.

This reduced commitment tempered performance, as long-term rates declined nonetheless and investors continued to seek the yield potential offered by utilities. Exposure to European telecommunications also detracted from performance. A number of these stocks struggled in a climate of intensifying mobile market competition and market saturation, which triggered a reduction in earnings expectations.

Favorable stock selection across a variety of industries drove the Portfolio's outperformance versus the benchmark. This positive stock selection offset the impact of sector allocations, which detracted modestly. Areas of strength included the Portfolio's healthcare, financial services and utilities stakes. Within the healthcare sector, the Portfolio benefited from positions in medical and dental instruments and supplies companies, as well as from biotechnology research and production companies. The Portfolio was also well served by an overall underweighting in the healthcare sector relative to the Russell 1000(R) Growth Index. Relative returns were also boosted by diversified financial services stocks and miscellaneous financial stocks. Utilities stocks were represented among the positive contributors, including wireless companies and gas distributors. Also on the upside, telecommunications equipment exposure enhanced results. In contrast, the Portfolio's performance was dampened by consumer discretionary exposure, as stocks from the commercial services, hotel/motel, and casinos and gambling industries hindered gains. Technology exposure also slowed the Portfolio's pace. Computer technology, communications technology and semiconductors/components companies detracted from relative performance.

For the six-month period ended June 30, 2005, the Portfolio's Class Y shares provided a total return of 0.97 percent. PAST PERFORMANCE IS NO GUARANTEE OF FUTURE RESULTS. Our strategy in managing the Portfolio remained consistent with the Portfolio's long-term focus on maintaining preservation of capital and liquidity. We adhered to a conservative approach in managing the Portfolio that emphasized purchasing high-quality money market obligations and avoided the use of derivatives or structured notes that might fluctuate excessively with changing interest rates. During the period, we took advantage of the rising yields available on money market securities by reinvesting proceeds of maturing short-term holdings at increased levels as rates climbed. We anticipate continuing this approach if rates continue to rise during the remainder of 2005. At the end of the measurement period, all of the Portfolio's holdings were due to mature in less than four months. As a result, we believe the Portfolio is well-positioned for stability of value with a high degree of liquidity.

THE PORTFOLIO'S TOTAL RETURNS ASSUME THE REINVESTMENT OF ALL DISTRIBUTIONS BUT DO NOT REFLECT THE DEDUCTION OF ANY CHARGES BY YOUR INSURANCE COMPANY. SUCH COSTS WOULD LOWER PERFORMANCE. Attractive yield and dividend growth characteristics, improving fundamentals, merger-and-acquisition activity, legislative developments and the specific benefits of commodity prices supported utilities during the period. The Portfolio participated in the sector's broad strength. In particular, solid contributions by the natural gas and electric stocks fuelled the Portfolio's performance. Exceptionally strong oil and natural gas prices were key factors underlying the significant upside of natural gas companies with exploration and production affiliations. Selective electric utilities were also beneficiaries of higher commodity prices, especially those having relatively low cost and excess coal and nuclear generation. The Portfolio's telecommunications stocks were mixed. The threat of competition and regulatory uncertainty hindered the large-cap legacy Regional Bell companies. However, a number of wireless stocks offset this weakness. Overall, merger and acquisition activity within the wireless industry has been a major stimulant among the principal operators while related areas such as the tower companies have been exceptional performers. Unlike the Regional Bells where growth is slow at best, the wireless area has attractive organic growth prospects as well as the benefit of synergies from current and future consolidation. Consequently, the portfolio's incremental investment in telecom has focused on the wireless arena. THERE IS NO GUARANTEE THAT ANY SECTORS MENTIONED WILL CONTINUE TO PERFORM WELL OR THAT SECURITIES IN SUCH SECTORS WILL BE HELD BY THE PORTFOLIO IN THE FUTURE. - ---------- (12) THE STANDARD & POOR'S 500 (R) INDEX (S&P 500 (R)) IS A BROAD-BASED INDEX, THE PERFORMANCE OF WHICH IS BASED ON THE PERFORMANCE OF 500 WIDELY-HELD COMMON STOCKS CHOSEN FOR MARKET SIZE, LIQUIDITY AND INDUSTRY GROUP REPRESENTATION.

This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period 01/01/05 - 06/30/05. ACTUAL EXPENSES The first line of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES The second line of the table below provides information about hypothetical expenses based on the Fund's actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund's actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing cost of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any insurance company charges. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs, and will not help you determine the relative total cost of owning different funds. In addition, if these insurance company charges were included, your costs would have been higher. 17 <Page> MONEY MARKET <Table> <Caption> BEGINNING ENDING EXPENSES PAID ACCOUNT VALUE ACCOUNT VALUE DURING PERIOD* ------------- ------------- -------------- 01/01/05 - 01/01/05 06/30/05 06/30/05 ------------- ------------- -------------- CLASS X Actual (1.10% return) $ 1,000.00 $ 1,011.00 $ 2.79 Hypothetical (5% annual return before expenses) $ 1,000.00 $ 1,022.02 $ 2.81 CLASS Y Actual (0.97% return) $ 1,000.00 $ 1,009.70 $ 4.04 Hypothetical (5% annual return before expenses) $ 1,000.00 $ 1,020.78 $ 4.06 </Table> - ---------- * Expenses are equal to the Portfolio's annualized expense ratio of 0.56% and 0.81% respectively, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 181/365 (to reflect the one-half year period).

The Board also reviewed and considered the nature and extent of the non-advisory, administrative services provided by the Portfolio's Administrator under the Administration Agreement, including accounting, clerical, bookkeeping, compliance, business management and planning, and the provision of supplies, office space and utilities. (The Investment Adviser and the Administrator together are referred to as the "Adviser" and the Advisory and Administration Agreements together are referred to as the "Management Agreement.") The Board also compared the nature of the services provided by the Adviser with similar services provided by non-affiliated advisers as reported to the Board by Lipper Inc. ("Lipper"). The Board reviewed and considered the qualifications of the portfolio managers, the senior administrative managers and other key personnel of the Adviser who provide the administrative and investment advisory services to the Portfolio. The Board determined that the Adviser's portfolio managers and key personnel are well qualified by education and/or training and experience to perform the services in an efficient and professional manner. The Board concluded that the nature and extent of the advisory and administrative services provided were necessary and appropriate for the conduct of the business and investment activities of the Portfolio. The Board also concluded that the overall quality of the advisory and administrative services was satisfactory. PERFORMANCE RELATIVE TO COMPARABLE FUNDS MANAGED BY OTHER ADVISERS The Board reviewed the Portfolio's performance for the one-, three- and five-year periods ended November 30, 2004, as shown in reports provided by Lipper (the "Lipper Reports"), compared to the performance of comparable funds selected by Lipper (the "performance peer group"), and noted that the Portfolio's performance was lower, but close to, than its performance peer group average for all three periods. The Board concluded that the Fund's overall performance was competitive with its performance peer group. FEES RELATIVE TO OTHER FUNDS MANAGED BY THE ADVISER WITH COMPARABLE INVESTMENT STRATEGIES The Board reviewed the advisory and administrative fees (together, the "management fee") paid by the Portfolio under the Management Agreement. The Board noted that the rate was comparable to the management fee rates charged by the Adviser to any other funds it manages with investment strategies comparable to those of the Portfolio. FEES AND EXPENSES RELATIVE TO COMPARABLE FUNDS MANAGED BY OTHER ADVISERS The Board reviewed the management fee rate and the total expense ratio of the Portfolio. The Board noted that: (i) the Portfolio's management fee rate was higher than the average management fee rate for funds, selected by Lipper (the "expense peer group"), managed by other advisers with investment strategies comparable to those of the Portfolio, as shown in the Lipper Report for the Portfolio; and (ii) the Portfolio's total expense ratio was also 24 <Page> higher than, but close to, the average total expense ratio of the funds included in the Portfolio's expense peer group. The Board concluded that the Portfolio's management fee and total expense ratio were competitive with those of its expense peer group. BREAKPOINTS AND ECONOMIES OF SCALE The Board reviewed the structure of the Portfolio's management fee schedule under the Management Agreement and noted that it includes breakpoints. The Board also reviewed the level of the Portfolio's management fee and noted that the fee, as a percentage of the Portfolio's net assets, would decrease as net assets increase because the management fee includes breakpoints. The Board concluded that the Portfolio's management fee would reflect economies of scale as assets increase. PROFITABILITY OF ADVISER AND AFFILIATES The Board considered and reviewed information concerning the costs incurred and profits realized by the Adviser and its affiliates during the last two years from their relationship with the Portfolio and the Morgan Stanley Fund Complex and reviewed with the Controller of the Adviser the cost allocation methodology used to determine the Adviser's profitability. Based on their review of the information they received, the Board concluded that the profits earned by the Adviser and its affiliates were not excessive in light of the advisory, administrative and other services provided to the Portfolio. FALL-OUT BENEFITS The Board considered so-called "fall-out benefits" derived by the Adviser and its affiliates from their relationship with the Portfolio and the Morgan Stanley Fund Complex, such as "float" benefits derived from handling of checks for purchases and redemptions of Portfolio shares through a broker-dealer affiliate of the Adviser. The Board also considered that a broker-dealer affiliate of the Adviser receives from the Portfolio 12b-1 fees for distribution and shareholder services. The Board concluded that the float benefits were relatively small and that the 12b-1 fees were competitive with those of other broker-dealer affiliates of investment advisers. SOFT DOLLAR BENEFITS The Board considered whether the Adviser realizes any benefits from commissions paid to brokers who execute securities transactions for the Portfolio ("soft dollars"). The Board noted that the Portfolio invests only in fixed income securities, which do not generate soft dollars. ADVISER FINANCIALLY SOUND AND FINANCIALLY CAPABLE OF MEETING THE PORTFOLIO'S NEEDS The Board considered whether the Adviser is financially sound and has the resources necessary to perform its obligations under the Management Agreement. The Board noted that the Adviser's operations remain profitable, although increased expenses in recent years have reduced the Adviser's profitability. The Board concluded that the Adviser has the financial resources necessary to fulfill its obligations under the Management Agreement. 25 <Page> HISTORICAL RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE PORTFOLIO AND THE ADVISER The Board also reviewed and considered the historical relationship between the Portfolio and the Adviser, including the organizational structure of the Adviser, the policies and procedures formulated and adopted by the Adviser for managing the Portfolio's operations and the Board's confidence in the competence and integrity of the senior managers and key personnel of the Adviser. The Board concluded that it is beneficial for the Portfolio to continue its relationship with the Adviser. OTHER FACTORS AND CURRENT TRENDS The Board considered the controls and procedures adopted and implemented by the Adviser and monitored by the Portfolio's Chief Compliance Officer and concluded that the conduct of business by the Adviser indicates a good faith effort on its part to adhere to high ethical standards in the conduct of the Portfolio's business. GENERAL CONCLUSION After considering and weighing all of the above factors, the Board concluded it would be in the best interest of the Portfolio and its shareholders to approve renewal of the Management Agreement for another year. FLEXIBLE INCOME PORTFOLIO NATURE, EXTENT AND QUALITY OF SERVICES The Board reviewed and considered the nature and extent of the investment advisory services provided by the Investment Adviser under the Advisory Agreement, including portfolio management, investment research and fixed income securities trading. The Board also reviewed and considered the nature and extent of the non-advisory, administrative services provided by the Portfolio's Administrator under the Administration Agreement, including accounting, clerical, bookkeeping, compliance, business management and planning, and the provision of supplies, office space and utilities.

The Board concluded that the Portfolio's overall performance was competitive with its performance peer group. FEES RELATIVE TO OTHER FUNDS MANAGED BY THE ADVISER WITH COMPARABLE INVESTMENT STRATEGIES The Board reviewed the advisory and administrative fees (together, the "management fee") paid by the Portfolio under the Management Agreement.

The Board concluded that the Portfolio's management fee and total expense ratio were competitive with those of its expense peer group. BREAKPOINTS AND ECONOMIES OF SCALE The Board reviewed the structure of the Portfolio's management fee schedule under the Management Agreement and noted that it does not include any breakpoints. The Board considered that the Portfolio's assets were small and its potential growth was unpredictable. The Board concluded that it would be premature to consider economies of scale as a factor in approving the Management Agreement. PROFITABILITY OF ADVISER AND AFFILIATES The Board considered and reviewed information concerning the costs incurred and profits realized by the Adviser and its affiliates during the last two years from their relationship with the Portfolio and the Morgan Stanley Fund Complex and reviewed with the Controller of the Adviser the cost allocation methodology used to determine the Adviser's profitability.

OTHER FACTORS AND CURRENT TRENDS The Board considered the controls and procedures adopted and implemented by the Adviser and monitored by the Portfolio's Chief Compliance Officer and concluded that the conduct of business by the Adviser indicates a good faith effort on its part to adhere to high ethical standards in the conduct of the Portfolio's business. GENERAL CONCLUSION After considering and weighing all of the above factors, the Board concluded it would be in the best interest of the Portfolio and its shareholders to approve renewal of the Management Agreement for another year. BALANCED GROWTH PORTFOLIO NATURE, EXTENT AND QUALITY OF SERVICES The Board reviewed and considered the nature and extent of the investment advisory services provided by the Investment Adviser under the Advisory Agreement, including portfolio management, investment research and equity 28 <Page> and fixed income securities trading. The Board also reviewed and considered the nature and extent of the non-advisory, administrative services provided by the Portfolio's Administrator under the Administration Agreement, including accounting, clerical, bookkeeping, compliance, business management and planning, and the provision of supplies, office space and utilities at the Adviser's expense. (The Investment Adviser and the Administrator together are referred to as the "Adviser" and the Advisory and Administration Agreements together are referred to as the "Management Agreement.") The Board also compared the nature of the services provided by the Adviser with similar services provided by non-affiliated advisers as reported to the Board by Lipper Inc. ("Lipper"). The Board reviewed and considered the qualifications of the portfolio managers, the senior administrative managers and other key personnel of the Adviser who provide the administrative and investment advisory services to the Portfolio. The Board determined that the Adviser's portfolio managers and key personnel are well qualified by education and/or training and experience to perform the services in an efficient and professional manner. The Board concluded that the nature and extent of the advisory and administrative services provided were necessary and appropriate for the conduct of the business and investment activities of the Portfolio. The Board also concluded that the overall quality of the advisory and administrative services was satisfactory. PERFORMANCE RELATIVE TO COMPARABLE FUNDS MANAGED BY OTHER ADVISERS The Board reviewed the Portfolio's performance for the one-, three- and five-year periods ended November 30, 2004, as shown in reports provided by Lipper (the "Lipper Reports"), compared to the performance of comparable funds selected by Lipper (the "performance peer group"), and noted that the Portfolio's performance for the three-year period was lower than its performance peer group average but better for the one- and five-year periods. The Board concluded that the Portfolio's performance was satisfactory. FEES RELATIVE TO OTHER FUNDS MANAGED BY THE ADVISER WITH COMPARABLE INVESTMENT STRATEGIES The Board reviewed the advisory and administrative fees (together, the "management fee") paid by the Portfolio under the Management Agreement. The Board noted that the rate was comparable to the management fee rates charged by the Adviser to any other funds it manages with investment strategies comparable to those of the Portfolio. FEES AND EXPENSES RELATIVE TO COMPARABLE FUNDS MANAGED BY OTHER ADVISERS The Board reviewed the management fee rate and the total expense ratio of the Portfolio. The Board noted that: (i) the Portfolio's management fee rate was lower than the average management fee rate for funds, selected by Lipper (the "expense peer group"), managed by other advisers with investment strategies comparable to those of the Portfolio, as shown in the Lipper Report for the Portfolio; and (ii) the Portfolio's total expense ratio was also lower than the average total expense ratio of the funds included in the Portfolio's expense peer group. The Board concluded that the Portfolio's management fee and total expense ratio were competitive with those of its expense peer group. 29 <Page> BREAKPOINTS AND ECONOMIES OF SCALE The Board reviewed the structure of the Portfolio's management fee schedule under the Management Agreement and noted that it includes a breakpoint. The Board also reviewed the level of the Portfolio's management fee and noted that the fee, as a percentage of the Portfolio's net assets, would decrease as net assets increase because the management fee includes breakpoints. The Board concluded that the Portfolio's management fee would reflect economies of scale as assets increase. PROFITABILITY OF ADVISER AND AFFILIATES The Board considered and reviewed information concerning the costs incurred and profits realized by the Adviser and its affiliates during the last two years from their relationship with the Portfolio and the Morgan Stanley Fund Complex and reviewed with the Controller of the Adviser the cost allocation methodology used to determine the Adviser's profitability. Based on their review of the information they received, the Board concluded that the profits earned by the Adviser and its affiliates were not excessive in light of the advisory, administrative and other services provided to the Portfolio. FALL-OUT BENEFITS The Board considered so-called "fall-out benefits" derived by the Adviser and its affiliates from their relationship with the Portfolio and the Morgan Stanley Fund Complex, such as "float" benefits derived from handling of checks for purchases and redemptions of Portfolio shares through a broker-dealer affiliate of the Adviser and "soft dollar" benefits (discussed in the next section). The Board also considered that a broker-dealer affiliate of the Adviser receives from the Portfolio 12b-1 fees for distribution and shareholder services. The Board also considered that an affiliate of the Adviser, through a joint venture, receives revenue in connection with trading done on behalf of the Portfolio through an electronic trading system network ("ECN"). The Board concluded that the float benefits and the above-referenced ECN-related revenue were relatively small and that the 12b-1 fees were competitive with those of other broker-dealer affiliates of investment advisers of mutual funds. SOFT DOLLAR BENEFITS The Board considered whether the Adviser realizes any benefits as a result of brokerage transactions executed through "soft dollar" arrangements. Under such arrangements, brokerage commissions paid by the Portfolio and/or other funds managed by the Adviser would be used to pay for research that a securities broker obtains from third parties, or to pay for both research and execution services from securities brokers who effect transactions for the Portfolio. The Adviser informed the Board that it does not use Portfolio commissions to pay for third party research. It does use commissions to pay for research which is bundled with execution services. The Board recognized that the receipt of such research from brokers may reduce the Adviser's costs but concluded that the receipt of such research strengthens the investment management resources of the Adviser, which may ultimately benefit the Portfolio and other funds in the Morgan Stanley Fund Complex. 30 <Page> ADVISER FINANCIALLY SOUND AND FINANCIALLY CAPABLE OF MEETING THE PORTFOLIO'S NEEDS The Board considered whether the Adviser is financially sound and has the resources necessary to perform its obligations under the Management Agreement.

The Board concluded that the Adviser has the financial resources necessary to fulfill its obligations under the Management Agreement. HISTORICAL RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE PORTFOLIO AND THE ADVISER The Board also reviewed and considered the historical relationship between the Portfolio and the Adviser, including the organizational structure of the Adviser, the policies and procedures formulated and adopted by the Adviser for managing the Portfolio's operations and the Board's confidence in the competence and integrity of the senior managers and key personnel of the Adviser.

The Board also noted that the Portfolio's performance for the past year was close to the performance of the performance peer group. The Board concluded that the Portfolio's overall performance was competitive with its performance peer group. FEES RELATIVE TO OTHER FUNDS MANAGED BY THE ADVISER WITH COMPARABLE INVESTMENT STRATEGIES The Board reviewed the advisory and administrative fees (together, the "management fee") paid by the Portfolio under the Management Agreement.

The Adviser agreed to introduce a breakpoint which would reduce the management fee from 0.20% to 0.10% on assets above $2 billion. The Board concluded that the proposed new breakpoint in the management fee would reflect economies of scale as assets increase.

The Board also reviewed and considered the nature and extent of the non-advisory, administrative services provided by the Portfolio's Administrator under the Administration Agreement, including accounting, clerical, bookkeeping, compliance, business management and planning, and the provision of supplies, office space and utilities at the Adviser's expense. (The Investment Adviser and the Administrator together are referred to as the "Adviser" and the Advisory and Administration Agreements together are referred to as the "Management Agreement.") The Board also compared the nature of the services provided by the Adviser with similar services provided by non-affiliated advisers as reported to the Board by Lipper Inc. ("Lipper"). The Board reviewed and considered the qualifications of the portfolio managers, the senior administrative managers and other key personnel of the Adviser who provide the administrative and investment advisory services to the Portfolio. The Board determined that the Adviser's portfolio managers and key personnel are well qualified by education and/or training and experience to perform the services in an efficient and professional manner. The Board concluded that the nature and extent of the advisory and administrative services provided were necessary and appropriate for the conduct of the business and investment activities of the Portfolio. The Board also concluded that the overall quality of the advisory and administrative services was satisfactory. 42 <Page> PERFORMANCE RELATIVE TO COMPARABLE FUNDS MANAGED BY OTHER ADVISERS The Board reviewed the Portfolio's performance for the one-, three- and five-year periods ended November 30, 2004, as shown in reports provided by Lipper (the "Lipper Reports"), compared to the performance of comparable funds selected by Lipper (the "performance peer group"), and noted that the Portfolio's performance was better than its performance peer group average for all three periods. The Board concluded that the Portfolio's performance was satisfactory. FEES RELATIVE TO OTHER FUNDS MANAGED BY THE ADVISER WITH COMPARABLE INVESTMENT STRATEGIES The Board reviewed the advisory and administrative fees (together, the "management fee") paid by the Portfolio under the Management Agreement. The Board noted that the rate was comparable to the management fee rates charged by the Adviser to any other funds it manages with investment strategies comparable to those of the Portfolio. FEES AND EXPENSES RELATIVE TO COMPARABLE FUNDS MANAGED BY OTHER ADVISERS The Board reviewed the management fee rate and the total expense ratio of the Portfolio. The Board noted that: (i) the Portfolio's management fee rate was lower than the average management fee rate for funds, selected by Lipper (the "expense peer group"), managed by other advisers with investment strategies comparable to those of the Portfolio, as shown in the Lipper Report for the Portfolio; and (ii) the Portfolio's total expense ratio was also lower than the average total expense ratio of the funds included in the Portfolio's expense peer group. The Board concluded that the Portfolio's management fee and total expense ratio were competitive with those of its expense peer group. BREAKPOINTS AND ECONOMIES OF SCALE The Board reviewed the structure of the Portfolio's management fee schedule under the Management Agreement and noted that it includes breakpoints. The Board also reviewed the level of the Portfolio's management fee and noted that the fee, as a percentage of the Portfolio's net assets, would decrease as net assets increase because the management fee includes breakpoints. The Board concluded that the Portfolio's management fee would reflect economies of scale as assets increase. PROFITABILITY OF ADVISER AND AFFILIATES The Board considered and reviewed information concerning the costs incurred and profits realized by the Adviser and its affiliates during the last two years from their relationship with the Portfolio and the Morgan Stanley Fund Complex and reviewed with the Controller of the Adviser the cost allocation methodology used to determine the Adviser's profitability. Based on their review of the information they received, the Board concluded that the profits earned by the Adviser and its affiliates were not excessive in light of the advisory, administrative and other services provided to the Portfolio. 43 <Page> FALL-OUT BENEFITS The Board considered so-called "fall-out benefits" derived by the Adviser and its affiliates from their relationship with the Portfolio and the Morgan Stanley Fund Complex, such as "float" benefits derived from handling of checks for purchases and redemptions of Portfolio shares through a broker-dealer affiliate of the Adviser and "soft dollar" benefits (discussed in the next section). The Board also considered that a broker-dealer affiliate of the Adviser receives from the Portfolio 12b-1 fees for distribution and shareholder services. The Board also considered that an affiliate of the Adviser, through a joint venture, receives revenue in connection with trading done on behalf of the Portfolio through an electronic trading system network ("ECN"). The Board concluded that the float benefits and the above-referenced ECN-related revenue were relatively small and that the 12b-1 fees were competitive with those of other broker-dealer affiliates of investment advisers of mutual funds. SOFT DOLLAR BENEFITS The Board considered whether the Adviser realizes any benefits as a result of brokerage transactions executed through "soft dollar" arrangements. Under such arrangements, brokerage commissions paid by the Portfolio and/or other funds managed by the Adviser would be used to pay for research that a securities broker obtains from third parties, or to pay for both research and execution services from securities brokers who effect transactions for the Portfolio. The Adviser informed the Board that it does not use Portfolio commissions to pay for third party research. It does use commissions to pay for research which is bundled with execution services. The Board recognized that the receipt of such research from brokers may reduce the Adviser's costs but concluded that the receipt of such research strengthens the investment management resources of the Adviser, which may ultimately benefit the Portfolio and other funds in the Morgan Stanley Fund Complex. ADVISER FINANCIALLY SOUND AND FINANCIALLY CAPABLE OF MEETING THE PORTFOLIO'S NEEDS The Board considered whether the Adviser is financially sound and has the resources necessary to perform its obligations under the Management Agreement. The Board noted that the Adviser's operations remain profitable, although increased expenses in recent years have reduced the Adviser's profitability. The Board concluded that the Adviser has the financial resources necessary to fulfill its obligations under the Management Agreement. HISTORICAL RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE PORTFOLIO AND THE ADVISER The Board also reviewed and considered the historical relationship between the Portfolio and the Adviser, including the organizational structure of the Adviser, the policies and procedures formulated and adopted by the Adviser for managing the Portfolio's operations and the Board's confidence in the competence and integrity of the senior managers and key personnel of the Adviser. The Board concluded that it is beneficial for the Portfolio to continue its relationship with the Adviser. 44 <Page> OTHER FACTORS AND CURRENT TRENDS The Board considered the controls and procedures adopted and implemented by the Adviser and monitored by the Portfolio's Chief Compliance Officer and concluded that the conduct of business by the Adviser indicates a good faith effort on its part to adhere to high ethical standards in the conduct of the Portfolio's business. GENERAL CONCLUSION After considering and weighing all of the above factors, the Board concluded it would be in the best interest of the Portfolio and its shareholders to approve renewal of the Management Agreement for another year. CAPITAL OPPORTUNITIES PORTFOLIO NATURE, EXTENT AND QUALITY OF SERVICES The Board reviewed and considered the nature and extent of the investment advisory services provided by the Investment Adviser under the Advisory Agreement, including portfolio management, investment research and equity and fixed income securities trading.

PERFORMANCE RELATIVE TO COMPARABLE FUNDS MANAGED BY OTHER ADVISERS The Board reviewed the Portfolio's performance for the one-, three- and five-year periods ended November 30, 2004, as shown in reports provided by Lipper (the "Lipper Reports"), compared to the performance of comparable funds selected by Lipper (the "performance peer group"), and noted that the Portfolio's performance was lower than its performance peer group average for the three- and five- year periods but better for the one-year period. The Board concluded that the Portfolio's overall performance was competitive with its performance peer group. 45 <Page> FEES RELATIVE TO OTHER FUNDS MANAGED BY THE ADVISER WITH COMPARABLE INVESTMENT STRATEGIES The Board reviewed the advisory and administrative fees (together, the "management fee") paid by the Portfolio under the Management Agreement. The Board noted that the rate was comparable to the management fee rates charged by the Adviser to any other funds it manages with investment strategies comparable to those of the Portfolio.

The Board also considered that an affiliate of the Adviser, through a joint venture, receives revenue in connection with trading done on behalf of the Portfolio through an electronic trading system network ("ECN"). The Board concluded that the float benefits and the 46 <Page> above-referenced ECN-related revenue were relatively small and that the 12b-1 fees were competitive with those of other broker-dealer affiliates of investment advisers of mutual funds. SOFT DOLLAR BENEFITS The Board considered whether the Adviser realizes any benefits as a result of brokerage transactions executed through "soft dollar" arrangements.

GENERAL CONCLUSION After considering and weighing all of the above factors, the Board concluded it would be in the best interest of the Portfolio and its shareholders to approve renewal of the Management Agreement for another year. 47 <Page> GLOBAL EQUITY PORTFOLIO NATURE, EXTENT AND QUALITY OF SERVICES The Board reviewed and considered the nature and extent of the investment advisory services provided by the Investment Adviser under the Advisory Agreement, including portfolio management, investment research and equity and fixed income securities trading. The Board also reviewed and considered the nature and extent of the non-advisory, administrative services provided by the Portfolio's Administrator under the Administration Agreement, including accounting, clerical, bookkeeping, compliance, business management and planning, and the provision of supplies, office space and utilities. (The Investment Adviser and the Administrator together are referred to as the "Adviser" and the Advisory and Administration Agreements together are referred to as the "Management Agreement.")

PERFORMANCE RELATIVE TO COMPARABLE FUNDS MANAGED BY OTHER ADVISERS The Board reviewed the Portfolio's performance for the one-, three- and five-year periods ended November 30, 2004, as shown in reports (the "Lipper Reports") provided by Lipper compared to the performance of comparable funds selected by Lipper (the "performance peer group"), and noted that the Portfolio's performance was lower than its performance peer group average for all three periods. The Adviser informed the Board that, in order to try to improve performance, the Portfolio's portfolio management team will leverage the proprietary fundamental research of the Adviser's Global Research Group. The Board concluded that this approach was reasonably designed to improve performance. FEES RELATIVE TO OTHER FUNDS MANAGED BY THE ADVISER WITH COMPARABLE INVESTMENT STRATEGIES The Board reviewed the advisory and administrative fees (together, the "management fee") paid by the Portfolio under the Management Agreement. The Board noted that the rate was comparable to the management fee rates charged by the Adviser to any other funds it manages with investment strategies comparable to those of the Portfolio. FEES AND EXPENSES RELATIVE TO COMPARABLE FUNDS MANAGED BY OTHER ADVISERS The Board reviewed the management fee rate and the total expense ratio of the Portfolio. The Board noted that: (i) the Portfolio's management fee rate was higher than the average management fee rate for funds, selected by 48 <Page> Lipper (the "expense peer group"), managed by other advisers with investment strategies comparable to those of the Portfolio, as shown in the Lipper Report for the Portfolio; and (ii) the Portfolio's total expense ratio was also higher than the average total expense ratio of the funds included in the Portfolio's expense peer group. The Board considered that the Fund's management fee and total expense ratio were close to those of its expense peer group. The Board concluded that the management fee and total expense ratio were not excessive. BREAKPOINTS AND ECONOMIES OF SCALE The Board reviewed the structure of the Portfolio's management fee schedule under the Management Agreement and noted that it does not include any breakpoints. The Board considered that the Portfolio's assets were small and its potential growth was uncertain. The Board concluded that it would be premature to consider economies of scale as a factor in approving the Management Agreement. PROFITABILITY OF ADVISER AND AFFILIATES The Board considered and reviewed information concerning the costs incurred and profits realized by the Adviser and its affiliates during the last two years from their relationship with the Portfolio and the Morgan Stanley Fund Complex and reviewed with the Controller of the Adviser the cost allocation methodology used to determine the Adviser's profitability.

DEVELOPING GROWTH PORTFOLIO NATURE, EXTENT AND QUALITY OF SERVICES The Board reviewed and considered the nature and extent of the investment advisory services provided by the Investment Adviser under the Advisory Agreement, including portfolio management, investment research and equity and fixed income securities trading. The Board also reviewed and considered the nature and extent of the non-advisory, administrative services provided by the Portfolio's Administrator under the Administration Agreement, including accounting, clerical, bookkeeping, compliance, business management and planning, and the provision of supplies, office space and utilities. (The Investment Adviser and the Administrator together are referred to as the "Adviser" and the Advisory and Administration Agreements together are referred to as the "Management 50 <Page> Agreement.") The Board also compared the nature of the services provided by the Adviser with similar services provided by non-affiliated advisers as reported to the Board by Lipper Inc. ("Lipper").

FEES RELATIVE TO OTHER FUNDS MANAGED BY THE ADVISER WITH COMPARABLE INVESTMENT STRATEGIES The Board reviewed the advisory and administrative fees (together, the "management fee") paid by the Portfolio under the Management Agreement. The Board noted that the rate was comparable to the management fee rates charged by the Adviser to any other funds it manages with investment strategies comparable to those of the Portfolio.

The Board concluded that the Portfolio's management fee and total expense ratio were competitive with those of the Portfolio's expense peer group. BREAKPOINTS AND ECONOMIES OF SCALE The Board reviewed the structure of the Portfolio's management fee schedule under the Management Agreement and noted that it includes a breakpoint. The Board also reviewed the level of the Portfolio's management fee and noted that the fee, as a percentage of the Portfolio's net assets, would decrease as net assets increase because the management fee includes breakpoints. The Board concluded that the Portfolio's management fee would reflect economies of scale as assets increase. 51 <Page> PROFITABILITY OF ADVISER AND AFFILIATES The Board considered and reviewed information concerning the costs incurred and profits realized by the Adviser and its affiliates during the last two years from their relationship with the Portfolio and the Morgan Stanley Fund Complex and reviewed with the Controller of the Adviser the cost allocation methodology used to determine the Adviser's profitability.

ORGANIZATION AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES Morgan Stanley Select Dimensions Investment Series (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, which consists of 11 separate portfolios ("Portfolios"), was organized on June 2, 1994, as a Massachusetts business trust and commenced operations on November 9, 1994, with the exception of Capital Opportunities which commenced operations on January 21, 1997. On July 24, 2000, the Fund commenced offering one additional class of shares (Class Y shares). The two classes are identical except that Class Y shares incur distribution expenses. Class X shares are generally available to holders of contracts offered before May 1, 2000. Class Y shares are available to holders of contracts offered on or after July 24, 2000. The investment objectives of each Portfolio are as follows: <Table> <Caption> PORTFOLIO INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Money Market Seeks high current income, preservation of capital and liquidity. Flexible Income Seeks, as a primary objective, to earn a high level of current income and, as a secondary objective, to maximize total return, but only when consistent with its primary objective. Balanced Growth Seeks to provide capital growth with reasonable current income. Utilities Seeks both capital appreciation and current income. Dividend Growth Seeks to provide reasonable current income and long-term growth of income and capital. Equally-Weighted S&P 500 Seeks to achieve a high level of total return on its assets through a combination of capital appreciation and current income. Growth Seeks long-term growth of capital. American Opportunities Seeks long-term capital growth consistent with an effort to reduce volatility. Capital Opportunities Seeks long-term capital growth. Global Equity Seeks to obtain total return on its assets primarily through long-term capital growth and to a lesser extent from income. Developing Growth Seeks long-term capital growth. </Table> 144 <Page> The following is a summary of significant accounting policies: A. VALUATION OF INVESTMENTS -- Money Market: securities are valued at amortized cost which approximates market value. All remaining Portfolios: (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 Adviser") 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 Adviser 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 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 certain dividends on foreign securities which are recorded as soon as the Fund is informed after the 145 <Page> ex-dividend date. Interest income is accrued daily except where collection is not expected. The Fund amortizes premiums and accretes discounts over the life of the respective securities. 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, or 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 which is known as variation margin. Such receipts or payments are recorded by the Fund as unrealized gains or 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 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 146 <Page> 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 individually for each Portfolio 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 -- The Fund records dividends and distributions to its shareholders on the ex-dividend date. I. EXPENSES -- Direct expenses are charged to the respective Portfolio and general Fund expenses are allocated on the basis of relative net assets or equally among the Portfolios. J. 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 ADVISORY/ADMINISTRATION AGREEMENTS Pursuant to an Investment Advisory Agreement, the Fund pays the Investment Adviser an advisory fee, accrued daily and payable monthly, by applying the annual rates listed below to each Portfolio's net assets determined at the close of each business day.

Global Equity -- 0.92%. Developing Growth -- 0.42% to the portion of daily net assets not exceeding $500 million and 0.395% to the portion of daily net assets exceeding $500 million. Pursuant to an Administration Agreement with Morgan Stanley Services Company Inc.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION Shares of the Fund are distributed by Morgan Stanley Distributors Inc. (the "Distributor"), an affiliate of the Investment Adviser and Administrator. The Fund has adopted a Plan of Distribution (the "Plan") pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Act. Under the Plan, Class Y shares of each Portfolio bear a distribution fee which is accrued daily and paid monthly at the annual rate of 0.25% of the average daily net assets of the class. 4.

PURPOSES OF AND RISKS RELATING TO CERTAIN FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS Some of the Portfolios 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. Forward contracts involve elements of market risk in excess of the amounts reflected in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The Portfolios bear the risk of an unfavorable change in the foreign exchange rates underlying the forward contracts. Risks may also arise upon entering into these contracts from the potential inability of the counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts. 150 <Page> Some of the Portfolios may purchase and sell interest rate and index futures ("futures contracts") to facilitate trading, increase or decrease the Portfolio's market exposure, seek higher investment returns, or to seek to protect against a decline in the value of the Portfolio's securities or an increase in prices of securities that may be purchased. These futures contracts involve elements of market risk in excess of the amount reflected in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The Portfolio bears the risk of an unfavorable change in the value of the underlying securities. 6. 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.
