SEE PERFORMANCE SUMMARY FOR STANDARDIZED PERFORMANCE AND BENCHMARK INFORMATION. MARKET CONDITIONS Although the "Goldilocks" scenario (a "just right" pace of economic growth) has been somewhat dampened by higher oil prices, increasing geopolitical risks, and rising bond yields and rates, global corporate earnings growth forecasts for 2006 and 2007 were solid in all regions, and U.S. first quarter earnings were again above expectations. Against this backdrop, international equities were strong for the six-month period ended April 30, 2006, with strong currency moves augmenting gains. During this period, Japanese equities posted a particularly solid return, and the yen gained about 2 percent. During the first quarter, the Bank of Japan announced a gradual end to quantitative easing -- but reaffirmed a slow approach to normalizing interest rates. Japanese economic numbers were mixed, but generally positive. Economic consensus 2006 GDP numbers have risen, business and consumer confidence remain at high levels and inflation data has improved. Euro area equities rose briskly as well, and the euro rose 5.2 percent. In Germany, April business surveys continued to make new cycle highs, industrial production rose above expectations, and yet core inflation data remained favorable. That said, March retail sales in France and Germany were below expectations, and Continental job growth was sluggish. United Kingdom equities also advanced at a good pace, though somewhat short of the euro area, and the sterling was up 2.7 percent. Emerging markets led the developed markets, broadly speaking. While the Asia ex-Japan region did not match the performance of the emerging markets, the former delivered good results as well, with mixed currency returns. China benefited from robust year-over-year growth and increased fixed investment. The tightening of bank lending rates by China in April was -- we believe -- an attempt to refocus lending and growth to the consumer and a precaution against speculative overinvestment. PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS Morgan Stanley International Fund Class A, B and C shares outperformed the Morgan Stanley Capital International (MSCI) EAFE Index and underperformed the Lipper International Large-Cap Core Funds Index, while Class D shares outperformed both indexes for the six months ended April 30, 2006, assuming no deduction of applicable sales charges. 2 <Page> The largest positive contributors to relative performance were the Fund's overweight to Japan relative to the MSCI EAFE Index and exposure to emerging markets. Unlike the MSCI EAFE Index, which does not include emerging markets, the Fund included a modest stake in these countries. As of the close of the period, emerging markets represented about 5.5 percent of holdings. The relative underweight to the United Kingdom and Continental Europe produced mixed results. The strength of both sterling and the euro hurt portfolio performance. (Because U.S. investors such as the Fund purchase shares of foreign stocks in local currencies, the investments are subject to fluctuations in currency exchange rates. If a foreign currency rises relative to the U.S. dollar, the cost to the U.S. investor increases, which detracts from the investors' total return.) For the six-month period, the Fund's investment strategy did not change materially. The portfolio was fully invested and remained focused on Japan and Asia. The Fund's positioning reflected our belief that Japan is in the early stages of reflation and that the upside to economic growth and earnings may still be underestimated. We were encouraged by Japan's constructive monetary stance, combined with the political pragmatism of Prime Minister Koizumi (that is, less taxes and smaller government).

SEE THE FUND'S CURRENT PROSPECTUS FOR COMPLETE DETAILS ON FEES AND SALES CHARGES. 6 <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 11/01/05 - 04/30/06. 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. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher. <Table> <Caption> BEGINNING ENDING EXPENSES PAID ACCOUNT VALUE ACCOUNT VALUE DURING PERIOD * ------------- ------------- --------------- 11/01/05 - 11/01/05 04/30/06 04/30/06 ------------- ------------- --------------- CLASS A Actual (23.50% return) $1,000.00 $1,235.00 $ 7.20 Hypothetical (5% annual return before expenses) $1,000.00 $1,018.35 $ 6.51 CLASS B Actual (23.04% return) $1,000.00 $1,230.40 $11.34 Hypothetical (5% annual return before expenses) $1,000.00 $1,014.63 $10.24 CLASS C Actual (23.10% return) $1,000.00 $1,231.00 $11.17 Hypothetical (5% annual return before expenses) $1,000.00 $1,014.78 $10.09 CLASS D Actual (23.71% return) $1,000.00 $1,237.10 $ 5.82 Hypothetical (5% annual return before expenses) $1,000.00 $1,019.59 $ 5.26 </Table> - ---------- * EXPENSES ARE EQUAL TO THE FUND'S ANNUALIZED EXPENSE RATIO OF 1.30%, 2.05%, 2.02% AND 1.05% FOR CLASS A, CLASS B, CLASS C AND CLASS D SHARES, RESPECTIVELY, MULTIPLIED BY THE AVERAGE ACCOUNT VALUE OVER THE PERIOD, MULTIPLIED BY 181/365 (TO REFLECT THE ONE-HALF YEAR PERIOD). IF THE FUND HAD BORNE ALL OF ITS EXPENSES THAT WERE REIMBURSED OR WAIVED BY THE INVESTMENT ADVISER AND ADMINISTRATOR, THE ANNUALIZED EXPENSE RATIOS WOUL HAVE BEEN 1.35%, 2.10%, 2.07% AND 1.10% FOR CLASS A, CLASS B, CLASS C AND CLASS D SHARES, RESPECTIVELY. 7 <Page> Investment Advisory Agreement Approval 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 Fund'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 Investment 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 advisory services to the Fund. 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 Fund. 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 On a regular basis, the Board reviews the performance of all funds in the Morgan Stanley Fund Complex, including the Fund, compared to their peers, paying specific attention to the underperforming funds. In addition, the Board specifically reviewed the Fund's performance for the one-, three- and five-year periods ended November 30, 2005, as shown in a report provided by Lipper (the "Lipper Report"), compared to the performance of comparable funds selected by Lipper (the "performance peer group"). The Board also discussed with the Adviser the performance goals and the actual results achieved in managing the Fund. The Board concluded that the Fund's performance was competitive with that of its performance peer group. FEES RELATIVE TO OTHER PROPRIETARY FUNDS MANAGED BY THE ADVISER WITH COMPARABLE INVESTMENT STRATEGIES The Board reviewed the advisory and administrative fee (together, the "management fee") rate paid by the Fund under the Management Agreement. The Board noted that the management fee rate was comparable to the management fee rates charged by the Adviser to other proprietary funds it manages with investment strategies comparable to those of the Fund. 8 <Page> FEES AND EXPENSES RELATIVE TO COMPARABLE FUNDS MANAGED BY OTHER ADVISERS The Board reviewed the management fee rate and total expense ratio of the Fund as compared to the average management fee rate and average total expense ratio for funds, selected by Lipper (the "expense peer group"), managed by other advisers with investment strategies comparable to those of the Fund, as shown in the Lipper Report. The Board concluded that the Fund's management fee rate 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 Fund's management fee schedule under the Management Agreement and noted that it includes a breakpoint in the management fee schedule. The Board also reviewed the level of the Fund's management fee and noted that the fee, as a percentage of the Fund's net assets, would decrease as net assets increase because of the breakpoint. The Board concluded that the Fund's management fee would reflect economies of scale as assets increase. PROFITABILITY OF THE ADVISER AND AFFILIATES The Board considered information concerning the costs incurred and profits realized by the Adviser and affiliates during the last year from their relationship with the Fund and during the last two years from their relationship with the Morgan Stanley Fund Complex and reviewed with the Adviser the cost allocation methodology used to determine the profitability of the Adviser and affiliates. Based on its review of the information it received, the Board concluded that the profits earned by the Adviser and affiliates were not excessive in light of the advisory, administrative and other services provided to the Fund. FALL-OUT BENEFITS The Board considered so-called "fall-out benefits" derived by the Adviser and affiliates from their relationship with the Fund and the Morgan Stanley Fund Complex, such as sales charges on sales of Class A shares and "float" benefits derived from handling of checks for purchases and sales of Fund 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 Fund 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 Fund 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 sales charges and 12b-1 fees were competitive with those of other broker-dealers. 9 <Page> 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 Fund 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 Fund. The Adviser informed the Board that it does not use Fund 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 Fund and other funds in the Morgan Stanley Fund Complex. ADVISER FINANCIALLY SOUND AND FINANCIALLY CAPABLE OF MEETING THE FUND'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 FUND AND THE ADVISER The Board also reviewed and considered the historical relationship between the Fund and the Adviser, including the organizational structure of the Adviser, the policies and procedures formulated and adopted by the Adviser for managing the Fund'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 Fund 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 Fund'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 Fund's business. GENERAL CONCLUSION After considering and weighing all of the above factors, the Board concluded that it would be in the best interest of the Fund and its shareholders to approve renewal of the Management Agreement for another year. 10 <Page> Morgan Stanley International Fund PORTFOLIO OF INVESTMENTS - APRIL 30, 2006 (UNAUDITED) NUMBER OF SHARES VALUE - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Common Stocks (96.6%) Australia (3.9%) ALUMINUM 44,214 Alumina Ltd. $ 240,405 ---------- BEVERAGES: ALCOHOLIC 37,487 Foster's Group Ltd. 167,390 ---------- BEVERAGES: NON-ALCOHOLIC 9,820 Coca-Cola Amatil Ltd. 54,289 ---------- BIOTECHNOLOGY 1,766 CSL Ltd. 77,382 ---------- BUILDING PRODUCTS 36,849 CSR Ltd. 113,332 ---------- CASINO/GAMING 7,441 TABCORP Holdings Ltd. 86,456 ---------- CHEMICALS: MAJOR DIVERSIFIED 10,913 Orica Ltd. 201,879 ---------- CONSTRUCTION MATERIALS 22,732 Boral Ltd. 164,513 18,172 James Hardie Industries NV 130,408 36,310 Rinker Group Ltd. 584,565 ---------- 879,486 ---------- CONTAINERS/PACKAGING 34,325 Amcor Ltd. 188,460 ---------- ENGINEERING & CONSTRUCTION 4,416 Leighton Holdings Ltd. 56,071 ---------- FINANCIAL CONGLOMERATES 24,422 AMP Ltd. 167,100 3,839 Macquarie Bank Ltd. 208,155 10,126 Suncorp-Metway Ltd. 156,408 ---------- 531,663 ---------- FOOD RETAIL 19,725 Coles Myer Ltd. 160,427 18,727 Woolworths Ltd. 265,374 ---------- 425,801 ---------- GAS DISTRIBUTORS 8,535 Australian Gas Light Co.

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. The Fund will assess 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, subject to certain exceptions. 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) 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; (2) 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; (3) 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; (4) 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; (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 44 <Page> 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 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 45 <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 Pursuant to an Investment Advisory Agreement with the Investment Adviser, the Fund pays 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. 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, to the extent such operating expenses on an annualized basis exceed 1.05% of the average daily net assets of the fund. 46 <Page> 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 $19,034,087 at April 30, 2006. In the case of Class A shares and Class C shares, expenses incurred pursuant to the Plan in any calendar year in excess of 0.25% or 1.0% of the average daily net assets of Class A or Class C, respectively, will not be reimbursed by the Fund through payments in any subsequent year, except that expenses representing a gross sales credit to Morgan Stanley Financial Advisors or other selected broker-dealer representatives may be reimbursed in the subsequent calendar year. For the six months ended April 30, 2006, the distribution fee was accrued for Class A shares and Class C shares at the annual rate of 0.25% and 0.97%, respectively. The Distributor has informed the Fund that for the six months ended April 30, 2006, it received contingent deferred sales charges from certain redemptions of the Fund's Class B shares and Class C shares of $91,523 and $713, respectively and received $55,575 in front-end sales charges from sales of the Fund's Class A shares. The respective shareholders pay such charges which are not an expense of the Fund. 4. Security Transactions and Transactions with Affiliates The cost of purchases and proceeds from sales of portfolio securities, excluding short-term investments, for the six months ended April 30, 2006 aggregated $37,584,797 and $171,433,012, respectively. Included in the aforementioned transactions are sales of $114,190,174 with other Morgan Stanley funds, including realized gains of $30,745,070. Morgan Stanley Trust, an affiliate of the Investment Adviser, Administrator, and Distributor, is the Fund's transfer agent. 47 <Page> 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. Shares of Beneficial Interest Transactions in shares of beneficial interest were as follows: <Table> <Caption> FOR THE SIX FOR THE YEAR MONTHS ENDED ENDED APRIL 30, 2006 OCTOBER 31, 2005 --------------------------- ------------------------- (UNAUDITED) SHARES AMOUNT SHARES AMOUNT ----------- ------------- ---------- ------------ CLASS A SHARES Sold 2,058,786 $ 24,161,917 3,595,078 $ 36,126,830 Conversion from Class B 255,529 3,072,857 1,883,593 18,568,503 Reinvestment of dividends 206,798 2,345,089 104,282 1,035,517 Redeemed (2,566,261) (30,286,428) (3,882,885) (39,231,669) ----------- ------------- ---------- ------------ Net increase (decrease) -- Class A (45,148) (706,565) 1,700,068 16,499,181 ----------- ------------- ---------- ------------ CLASS B SHARES Sold 1,005,576 11,771,847 1,622,872 16,071,848 Conversion to Class A (257,770) (3,072,857) (1,903,425) (18,568,503) Reinvestment of dividends 146,771 1,652,647 69,959 689,091 Redeemed (2,150,197) (25,026,984) (5,633,706) (56,144,759) ----------- ------------- ---------- ------------ Net decrease -- Class B (1,255,620) (14,675,347) (5,844,300) (57,952,323) ----------- ------------- ---------- ------------ CLASS C SHARES Sold 452,184 5,119,697 214,201 2,116,614 Reinvestment of dividends 27,741 311,530 9,864 97,057 Redeemed (242,300) (2,828,803) (763,836) (7,543,916) ----------- ------------- ---------- ------------ Net increase (decrease) -- Class C 237,625 2,602,424 (539,771) (5,330,245) ----------- ------------- ---------- ------------ CLASS D SHARES Sold 104,801 1,236,086 1,200,361 12,017,377 Reinvestment of dividends 37,562 427,455 177,714 1,770,033 Redeemed (10,747,193) (118,779,288) (4,437,463) (45,000,230) ----------- ------------- ---------- ------------ Net decrease -- Class D (10,604,830) (117,115,747) (3,059,388) (31,212,820) ----------- ------------- ---------- ------------ Net decrease in Fund (11,667,973) $(129,895,235) (7,743,391) $(77,996,207) =========== ============= ========== ============ </Table> 48 <Page> 6. Purposes of and Risks Relating to Certain Financial Instruments The Fund may enter into forward contracts for many purposes, including to facilitate settlement of foreign currency denominated portfolio transactions or to manage foreign currency exposure associated with foreign currency denominated securities. To hedge against adverse interest rate, foreign currency and market risks, the Fund may purchase and sell interest rate, currency and index futures ("futures contracts"). 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 April 30, 2006, investments in securities of issuers in Japan and United Kingdom represented 29.7% and 19.8%, 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 these regions. At April 30, 2006, the Fund's cash balance consisted principally of interest bearing deposits with J.P. Morgan Chase, the Fund's custodian. 7. Expense Offset The expense offset represents a reduction of the custodian and transfer agent fees and expenses for earnings on cash balances maintained by the Fund. 8. Federal Income Tax Status The amount of dividends and distributions from net investment income and net realized capital gains are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles. These "book/tax" differences are either considered temporary or permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are permanent in nature, such amounts are reclassified within the capital accounts based on their federal tax-basis treatment; temporary differences do not require reclassification. Dividends and distributions which exceed net investment income and net realized capital gains for tax purposes are reported as distributions of paid-in-capital. As of October 31, 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. 49 <Page> 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. 9. 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 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. On March 9, 2005, Plaintiffs sought leave to supplement their complaint to assert claims on behalf of other investors, which motion defendants opposed. On April 14, 2006, the Court granted defendants' motion to dismiss in its entirety. Additionally, the Court denied Plaintiff's motion to supplement their complaint. This matter is now concluded. 50 <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 SIX FOR THE YEAR ENDED OCTOBER 31, MONTHS ENDED ------------------------------------------------- APRIL 30, 2006 2005 2004 2003 2002 2001 -------------- -------- ------- ------- ------- ------- (UNAUDITED) Class A Shares Selected Per Share Data: Net asset value, beginning of period $ 10.70 $ 9.19 $ 8.03 $ 6.70 $ 7.77 $ 10.29 -------- -------- ------- ------- ------- ------- Income (loss) from investment operations: Net investment income++ 0.06 0.13 0.06 0.08 0.04 0.06 Net realized and unrealized gain (loss) 2.42 1.50 1.20 1.33 (1.03) (2.07) -------- -------- ------- ------- ------- ------- Total income (loss) from investment operations 2.48 1.63 1.26 1.41 (0.99) (2.01) -------- -------- ------- ------- ------- ------- Less dividends and distributions from: Net investment income (0.22) (0.12) (0.10) (0.08) (0.08) -- Net realized gain -- -- -- -- -- (0.51) -------- -------- ------- ------- ------- ------- Total dividends and distributions (0.22) (0.12) (0.10) (0.08) (0.08) (0.51) -------- -------- ------- ------- ------- ------- Net asset value, end of period $ 12.96 $ 10.70 $ 9.19 $ 8.03 $ 6.70 $ 7.77 ======== ======== ======= ======= ======= ======= Total Return+ 23.50%(1) 17.65% 15.89% 21.31% (12.93)% (20.36)% Ratios to Average Net Assets(3): Expenses 1.30%(2)(5) 1.30% 1.57% 1.58% 1.56% 1.46%(4) Net investment income 1.02%(2)(5) 1.27% 0.67% 1.02% 0.54% 0.73% Supplemental Data: Net assets, end of period, in thousands $139,534 $115,680 $83,766 $63,422 $44,373 $37,974 Portfolio turnover rate 10%(1) 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.
