SEE PERFORMANCE SUMMARY FOR STANDARDIZED PERFORMANCE AND BENCHMARK INFORMATION. MARKET CONDITIONS For the 12-month period ended October 31, 2005, international equity markets (as measured by the MSCI EAFE Index) gained 15.3 percent in local currency and 18.1 percent in U.S. dollars. Throughout most of the period, monetary tightening in the United States and high oil prices were a source of concern for the global markets. More recently, renewed worries about inflation weighed on equities and bonds. One developed market that proved somewhat impervious to these factors was Japan, which charged ahead in the final months of the reporting period. A nascent recovery in real estate, firming corporate profitability, improved quality of banks' balance sheets, rising employment and a clear popular mandate for change were among the factors supporting the surge in Japanese equities. While not matching the impressive gains of Japan, Europe and the United Kingdom provided solid returns for the period. Despite pockets of weakness and country-specific political uncertainty, European economic numbers and business sentiment were generally better than expected. In contrast, the Asia ex-Japan region lagged, with Hong Kong and Singapore posting disappointing returns. The U.S. dollar was strong versus the euro, the U.K. sterling and the Japanese yen. This dollar strength hurt U.S. dollar-based international investors. PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS Morgan Stanley International Fund underperformed the Morgan Stanley Capital International (MSCI) EAFE Index for the 12 months ended October 31, 2005, assuming no deduction of applicable sales charges. Class A and Class D shares outperformed the Lipper International Large-Cap Core Funds Index while Class B and Class C shares underperformed this Index for the 12 months ended October 31, 2005, assuming no deduction of applicable sales charges. The most significant positive contributors to the Fund's performance were its overweighted positions versus the MSCI benchmark in Japan and in Japanese financial stocks. In contrast, significant detractors were above-benchmark allocations to Germany, Hong Kong and Singapore. Our investment strategy during these 12 months was fairly constant. The Fund maintained overweightings versus the MSCI benchmark in Asia (particularly Japan) and in the materials and energy sectors. As of the end of the reporting period, our analysis suggests that 2 <Page> continued Japanese corporate and fiscal restructuring, strong anticipated growth from China, and steady U.S. economic growth may help Japanese equities move higher. In contrast, the Fund was underweighted in both the United Kingdom and the euro bloc. Although we believe there are many positive fundamentals in the Europe ex-U.K. region, we are vigilant of the growing potential for policy error. While the MSCI EAFE Index comprises only developed markets, the Fund included exposure to emerging markets. At the end of the period, emerging markets represented approximately 4 percent of assets, with positions in Brazil, Mexico, Poland, Russia and Turkey.

SEE THE FUND'S CURRENT PROSPECTUS FOR COMPLETE DETAILS ON FEES AND SALES CHARGES. ^ ENDING VALUE ASSUMING A COMPLETE REDEMPTION ON OCTOBER 31, 2005. 7 <Page> EXPENSE EXAMPLE As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchase payments and redemption fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including advisory fees; distribution and service (12b-1) fees; and other Fund expenses. 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 05/01/05 - 10/31/05. 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 transactional costs, such as sales charges (loads) and redemption fees. 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.

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 eighteen months, 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. Effective August 29, 2005, the Board of Trustees of the Fund approved the implementation of a 2% redemption fee on Class A shares, Class B shares, Class C shares, and Class D shares, which is paid directly to the Fund, for shares redeemed within thirty days of purchase. The redemption fee is designed to protect the Fund and its remaining shareholders from the effects of short-term trading. 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 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 40 <Page> 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 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 Adviser, 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 41 <Page> 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 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 ADVISORY/ADMINISTRATION AGREEMENTS Effective June 1, 2005, pursuant to an Investment Advisory Agreement, the Fund pays the Investment Adviser an advisory fee, accrued daily and payable monthly, by applying the following annual rates to the net assets of the Fund determined as of the close of each business day: 0.65% to the portion of the daily net assets not exceeding $1 billion and 0.60% to the portion of the daily net assets in excess of $1 billion. For the period November 1, 2004 to May 31, 2005, the Fund paid the Investment Adviser an advisory fee, accrued daily and payable monthly, by applying the annual rate of 0.65% to the Fund's daily net assets. Pursuant to an Administration Agreement with Morgan Stanley Services Company Inc. ("the Administrator"), an affiliate of the Investment Adviser, the Fund pays an administration fee, accrued daily and payable monthly, by applying the annual rate of 0.08% to the Fund's daily net assets. Effective November 18, 2005, the Investment Adviser has agreed to cap the Fund's operating expenses (except for brokerage and 12b-1 fees) for one year by assuming the Fund's "other expenses" and/or waiving the Fund's advisory fees, and the Administrator has agreed to waive the Fund's administrative fees, 42 <Page> to the extent such operating expenses on an annualized basis exceed 1.05% of the average daily net assets of the Fund. 3. 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. 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 -- up to 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 $19,429,474 at October 31, 2005. 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 year ended October 31, 2005, the distribution fee was accrued for Class A shares and Class C shares at the annual rate of 0.25% and 1.0%, respectively. The Distributor has informed the Fund that for the year ended October 31, 2005, it received contingent deferred sales charges from certain redemptions of the Fund's Class B shares and Class C shares of $341,984 and $2,396, respectively and received $51,277 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 year ended October 31, 2005 aggregated $93,916,888 and $151,515,852, respectively. 43 <Page> Morgan Stanley Trust, an affiliate of the Investment Adviser, Administrator, and Distributor, is the Fund's transfer agent. The Fund has 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. 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 securities underlying the futures contracts. Risks may also arise upon entering into these contracts from the potential inability of the counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts. At October 31, 2005, investments in securities of issuers in Japan and United Kingdom represented 30.5% and 20.7% respectively, 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 October 31, 2005, 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. 45 <Page> The tax character of distributions paid was as follows: <Table> <Caption> FOR THE YEAR FOR THE YEAR ENDED ENDED OCTOBER 31, 2005 OCTOBER 31, 2004 ---------------- ---------------- Ordinary income $ 4,000,044 $ 3,858,453 ============= =========== </Table> As of October 31, 2005, the tax-basis components of accumulated losses were as follows: <Table> Undistributed ordinary income $ 4,471,172 Undistributed long-term gains -- ------------- Net accumulated earnings 4,471,172 Foreign tax credit pass-through 896,571 Capital loss carryforward* (144,220,196) Temporary differences (943,176) Net unrealized appreciation 77,839,708 ------------- Total accumulated losses $ (61,955,921) ============= </Table> *During the year ended October 31, 2005, the Fund utilized $28,351,612 of its net capital loss carryforward. As of October 31, 2005, the Fund had a net capital loss carryforward of $144,220,196 of which $89,773,119 will expire on October 31, 2010 and $54,447,077 will expire on October 31, 2011 to offset future capital gains to the extent provided by regulations. As of October 31, 2005, the Fund had temporary book/tax differences primarily attributable to the mark-to-market of open forward foreign currency exchange contracts and passive foreign investment companies ("PFICs"), foreign tax credit pass-through and capital loss deferrals on wash sales and permanent book/tax differences primarily attributable to foreign currency losses and tax adjustments on PFICs sold by the Fund. To reflect reclassifications arising from the permanent differences, paid-in-capital was charged $2,673, accumulated net realized loss was charged $54,110 and accumulated undistributed net investment income was credited $56,783. 8. LEGAL MATTERS The Investment Adviser, certain affiliates of the Investment Adviser, certain officers of such affiliates and certain investment companies advised by the Investment Adviser or its affiliates, including the Fund, are named as defendants in a consolidated class action. This consolidated action also names as defendants certain individual Trustees and Directors of the Morgan Stanley funds. The consolidated amended complaint, filed in the United States District Court Southern District of New York on April 16, 2004, generally alleges that defendants, including the Fund, violated their statutory disclosure obligations and fiduciary duties by failing properly to disclose (i) that the Investment Adviser and certain affiliates of the Investment Adviser allegedly offered economic incentives to brokers and others to recommend the funds 46 <Page> advised by the Investment Adviser or its affiliates to investors rather than funds managed by other companies, and (ii) that the funds advised by the Investment Adviser 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 have moved to dismiss the action and intend to otherwise vigorously defend it. On March 9, 2005, Plaintiffs sought leave to supplement their complaint to assert claims on behalf of other investors. While the Fund and Adviser believe that each has meritorious defenses, the ultimate outcome of this matter is not presently determinable at this stage of the litigation, and no provision has been made in the Fund's financial statements for the effect, if any, of this matter. 47 <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 YEAR ENDED OCTOBER 31, -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2005 2004 2003 2002 2001 ------------ ------------ ------------ ------------ ------------ CLASS A SHARES SELECTED PER SHARE DATA: Net asset value, beginning of period $ 9.19 $ 8.03 $ 6.70 $ 7.77 $ 10.29 ------------ ------------ ------------ ------------ ------------ Income (loss) from investment operations: Net investment income^ 0.13 0.06 0.08 0.04 0.06 Net realized and unrealized gain (loss) 1.50 1.20 1.33 (1.03) (2.07) ------------ ------------ ------------ ------------ ------------ Total income (loss) from investment operations 1.63 1.26 1.41 (0.99) (2.01) ------------ ------------ ------------ ------------ ------------ Less dividends and distributions from: Net investment income (0.12) (0.10) (0.08) (0.08) - Net realized gain - - - - (0.51) ------------ ------------ ------------ ------------ ------------ Total dividends and distributions (0.12) (0.10) (0.08) (0.08) (0.51) ------------ ------------ ------------ ------------ ------------ Net asset value, end of period $ 10.70 $ 9.19 $ 8.03 $ 6.70 $ 7.77 ============ ============ ============ ============ ============ TOTAL RETURN+ 17.65% 15.89% 21.31% (12.93)% (20.36)% RATIOS TO AVERAGE NET ASSETS(1): Expenses 1.30% 1.57% 1.58% 1.56% 1.46%(2) Net investment income 1.27% 0.67% 1.02% 0.54% 0.73% SUPPLEMENTAL DATA: Net assets, end of period, in thousands $ 115,680 $ 83,766 $ 63,422 $ 44,373 $ 37,974 Portfolio turnover rate 22% 33% 43% 39% 37% </Table> - ---------- ^ THE PER SHARE AMOUNTS WERE COMPUTED USING AN AVERAGE NUMBER OF SHARES OUTSTANDING DURING THE PERIOD. + DOES NOT REFLECT THE DEDUCTION OF SALES CHARGE.

SEE NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 51 <Page> MORGAN STANLEY INTERNATIONAL FUND REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM TO THE SHAREHOLDERS AND BOARD OF TRUSTEES OF MORGAN STANLEY INTERNATIONAL FUND: We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Morgan Stanley International Fund (the "Fund"), including the portfolio of investments, as of October 31, 2005, and the related statements of operations for the year then ended and changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. The Fund is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of October 31, 2005, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers; where replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Morgan Stanley International Fund as of October 31, 2005, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

STATEMENT OF PRINCIPLES The Audit Committee of the Board is required to review and, in its sole discretion, pre-approve all Covered Services to be provided by the Independent Auditors to the Fund and Covered Entities in order to assure that services performed by the Independent Auditors do not impair the auditor's independence from the Fund. The SEC has issued rules specifying the types of services that an independent auditor may not provide to its audit client, as well as the audit committee's administration of the engagement of the independent auditor. The SEC's rules establish two different approaches to pre-approving services, which the SEC considers to be equally valid. Proposed services either: may be pre-approved without consideration of specific case-by-case services by the Audit Committee ("GENERAL PRE-APPROVAL"); or require the specific pre-approval of the Audit Committee or its delegate ("SPECIFIC PRE-APPROVAL"). The Audit Committee believes that the combination of these two approaches in this Policy will result in an effective and efficient procedure to pre-approve services performed by the Independent Auditors. As set forth in this Policy, unless a type of service has received general pre-approval, it will require specific pre-approval by the Audit Committee (or by any member of the Audit Committee to which pre-approval authority has been delegated) if it is to be provided by the Independent Auditors. Any proposed services exceeding pre-approved cost levels or budgeted amounts will also require specific pre-approval by the Audit Committee. The appendices to this Policy describe the Audit, Audit-related, Tax and All Other services that have the general pre-approval of the Audit Committee. The term of any general pre-approval is 12 months from the date of pre-approval, unless the Audit Committee considers and provides a different period and states otherwise. The Audit Committee will annually review and pre-approve the services that may be provided by the Independent Auditors without obtaining specific pre-approval from the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee will add to or subtract from the list of general pre-approved services from time to time, based on subsequent determinations. - ---------- (1) This Audit Committee Audit and Non-Audit Services Pre-Approval Policy and Procedures (the "POLICY"), adopted as of the date above, supersedes and replaces all prior versions that may have been adopted from time to time. <Page> The purpose of this Policy is to set forth the policy and procedures by which the Audit Committee intends to fulfill its responsibilities. It does not delegate the Audit Committee's responsibilities to pre-approve services performed by the Independent Auditors to management. The Fund's Independent Auditors have reviewed this Policy and believes that implementation of the Policy will not adversely affect the Independent Auditors' independence. 2. DELEGATION As provided in the Act and the SEC's rules, the Audit Committee may delegate either type of pre-approval authority to one or more of its members. The member to whom such authority is delegated must report, for informational purposes only, any pre-approval decisions to the Audit Committee at its next scheduled meeting. 3. AUDIT SERVICES The annual Audit services engagement terms and fees are subject to the specific pre-approval of the Audit Committee. Audit services include the annual financial statement audit and other procedures required to be performed by the Independent Auditors to be able to form an opinion on the Fund's financial statements. These other procedures include information systems and procedural reviews and testing performed in order to understand and place reliance on the systems of internal control, and consultations relating to the audit. The Audit Committee will approve, if necessary, any changes in terms, conditions and fees resulting from changes in audit scope, Fund structure or other items. In addition to the annual Audit services engagement approved by the Audit Committee, the Audit Committee may grant general pre-approval to other Audit services, which are those services that only the Independent Auditors reasonably can provide. Other Audit services may include statutory audits and services associated with SEC registration statements (on Forms N-1A, N-2, N-3, N-4, etc.), periodic reports and other documents filed with the SEC or other documents issued in connection with securities offerings. The Audit Committee has pre-approved the Audit services in Appendix B.1. All other Audit services not listed in Appendix B.1 must be specifically pre-approved by the Audit Committee (or by any member of the Audit Committee to which pre-approval has been delegated). 4. AUDIT-RELATED SERVICES Audit-related services are assurance and related services that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit or review of the Fund's financial statements and, to the extent they are Covered Services, the Covered Entities or that are traditionally performed by the Independent Auditors. Because the Audit Committee believes that the provision of Audit-related services does not impair the independence of the auditor and is consistent with the SEC's rules on auditor independence, the Audit Committee may grant general pre-approval to Audit-related services. Audit-related services include, among others, accounting consultations related to accounting, financial reporting or disclosure matters <Page> not classified as "Audit services"; assistance with understanding and implementing new accounting and financial reporting guidance from rulemaking authorities; agreed-upon or expanded audit procedures related to accounting and/or billing records required to respond to or comply with financial, accounting or regulatory reporting matters; and assistance with internal control reporting requirements under Forms N-SAR and/or N-CSR. The Audit Committee has pre-approved the Audit-related services in Appendix B.2. All other Audit-related services not listed in Appendix B.2 must be specifically pre-approved by the Audit Committee (or by any member of the Audit Committee to which pre-approval has been delegated). 5. TAX SERVICES The Audit Committee believes that the Independent Auditors can provide Tax services to the Fund and, to the extent they are Covered Services, the Covered Entities, such as tax compliance, tax planning and tax advice without impairing the auditor's independence, and the SEC has stated that the Independent Auditors may provide such services. Pursuant to the preceding paragraph, the Audit Committee has pre-approved the Tax Services in Appendix B.3. All Tax services in Appendix B.3 must be specifically pre-approved by the Audit Committee (or by any member of the Audit Committee to which pre-approval has been delegated). 6. ALL OTHER SERVICES The Audit Committee believes, based on the SEC's rules prohibiting the Independent Auditors from providing specific non-audit services, that other types of non-audit services are permitted. Accordingly, the Audit Committee believes it may grant general pre-approval to those permissible non-audit services classified as All Other services that it believes are routine and recurring services, would not impair the independence of the auditor and are consistent with the SEC's rules on auditor independence. The Audit Committee has pre-approved the All Other services in Appendix B.4. Permissible All Other services not listed in Appendix B.4 must be specifically pre-approved by the Audit Committee (or by any member of the Audit Committee to which pre-approval has been delegated). 7. PRE-APPROVAL FEE LEVELS OR BUDGETED AMOUNTS Pre-approval fee levels or budgeted amounts for all services to be provided by the Independent Auditors will be established annually by the Audit Committee. Any proposed services exceeding these levels or amounts will require specific pre-approval by the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee is mindful of the overall relationship of fees for audit and non-audit services in determining whether to pre-approve any such services. 8. PROCEDURES All requests or applications for services to be provided by the Independent Auditors that do not require specific approval by the Audit Committee will be submitted to the Fund's Chief Financial Officer and must include a detailed description of the services to be <Page> rendered. The Fund's Chief Financial Officer will determine whether such services are included within the list of services that have received the general pre-approval of the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee will be informed on a timely basis of any such services rendered by the Independent Auditors. Requests or applications to provide services that require specific approval by the Audit Committee will be submitted to the Audit Committee by both the Independent Auditors and the Fund's Chief Financial Officer, and must include a joint statement as to whether, in their view, the request or application is consistent with the SEC's rules on auditor independence. The Audit Committee has designated the Fund's Chief Financial Officer to monitor the performance of all services provided by the Independent Auditors and to determine whether such services are in compliance with this Policy. The Fund's Chief Financial Officer will report to the Audit Committee on a periodic basis on the results of its monitoring. Both the Fund's Chief Financial Officer and management will immediately report to the chairman of the Audit Committee any breach of this Policy that comes to the attention of the Fund's Chief Financial Officer or any member of management. 9. ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS The Audit Committee has determined to take additional measures on an annual basis to meet its responsibility to oversee the work of the Independent Auditors and to assure the auditor's independence from the Fund, such as reviewing a formal written statement from the Independent Auditors delineating all relationships between the Independent Auditors and the Fund, consistent with Independence Standards Board No. 1, and discussing with the Independent Auditors its methods and procedures for ensuring independence. 10. COVERED ENTITIES Covered Entities include the Fund's investment adviser(s) and any entity controlling, controlled by or under common control with the Fund's investment adviser(s) that provides ongoing services to the Fund(s). Beginning with non-audit service contracts entered into on or after May 6, 2003, the Fund's audit committee must pre-approve non-audit services provided not only to the Fund but also to the Covered Entities if the engagements relate directly to the operations and financial reporting of the Fund.
