* Agreement was terminated on the Initial Optional Termination Date. 5 Debt Credit Facility - Effective on July 15, 2003, Belair Capital refinanced the existing Credit Facility with Merrill Lynch International Bank Limited with two new credit arrangements (collectively, the New Credit Facility) totaling $615,000,000. The New Credit Facility has a seven-year maturity and will expire on June 25, 2010. Belair Capital's obligations under the New Credit Facility are secured by a pledge of its assets, excluding the assets of Bel Residential Properties Trust (Bel Residential). The credit arrangement with DrKW Holdings, Inc. is for $515,000,000. This credit arrangement accrues interest at a rate of one-month LIBOR + 0.30% per annum. As of July 15, 2003, outstanding borrowings under this credit arrangement totaled $515,000,000. The credit arrangement with Merrill Lynch Mortgage Capital is for $100,000,000 and includes the ability to issue letters of credit up to $10,000,000. This credit arrangement accrues interest at a rate of one-month LIBOR + 0.38% per annum. A commitment fee of 0.10% per annum is paid on the unused commitment amount. Belair Capital pays all fees associated with issuing the letters of credit. As of July 15, 2003, outstanding borrowings under this credit arrangement totaled $17,769,000, as well as one letter of credit outstanding for $1,354,068.

The letter of credit expires in 2004 and automatically extends for one-year periods, not to extend beyond June 15, 2010. Fees paid or accrued under the terms of the letter of credit issued under the existing Credit Facility totaled $5,372, for the six months ended June 30, 2003. 6 Segment Information Belair Capital pursues its investment objective primarily by investing indirectly in the Portfolio through Belvedere Capital. The Portfolio is a diversified investment company that emphasizes investments in common stocks of domestic and foreign growth companies that are considered to be high in quality and attractive in their long-term investment prospects. Separate from its investment in Belvedere Capital, Belair Capital invests in real estate assets through its subsidiary Belair Real Estate. Belair Real Estate invests directly in Partnership Preference Units and debt and equity investments in private real estate companies, and indirectly in real property through a controlled subsidiary, Bel Residential. At June 30, 2002, Belair Real Estate's controlled subsidiaries also included Katahdin (for the period from January 1, 2002 through May 21, 2002). 12 Belair Capital evaluates performance of the reportable segments based on the net increase (decrease) in net assets from operations of the respective segment, which includes net investment income (loss), net realized gain (loss) and unrealized gain (loss). The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those for Belair Capital on a consolidated basis. No reportable segments have been aggregated.

14 ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS. The information in this report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. Forward-looking statements typically are identified by use of terms such as "may," "will," "should," "might," "expect," "anticipate," "estimate," and similar words, although some forward-looking statements are expressed differently. The actual results of Belair Capital Fund LLC (the Fund) could differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements due to a number of factors. The Fund undertakes no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise, except as required by applicable law. Factors that could affect the Fund's performance include a decline in the U.S. stock markets or in general economic conditions, adverse developments affecting the real estate industry, or fluctuations in interest rates. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Fund's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes in Item 1 above. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE QUARTER ENDED JUNE 30, 2003 COMPARED TO THE QUARTER ENDED JUNE 30, 2002 PERFORMANCE OF THE FUND.1 The Fund's total return was 15.23% for the quarter ended June 30, 2003. This return reflects an increase in the Fund's net asset value per share from $89.32 to $102.92 during the period. For comparison, the Standard & Poor's 500 Index (the S&P 500), an unmanaged index of large capitalization stocks commonly used as a benchmark for the U.S. equity market, had a total return of 15.39% over the same period. The performance of the Fund exceeded that of Tax-Managed Growth Portfolio (the Portfolio) by approximately 1.69% during the period. Last year, the Fund had a total return performance of -13.07% for the quarter ended June 30, 2002. This return reflected a decrease in the Fund's net asset value per share from $118.49 to $103.00 during the period. For comparison, the S&P 500 had a total return of -13.39% over the same period. The performance of the Fund trailed that of the Portfolio by approximately 1.43% during that period. PERFORMANCE OF THE PORTFOLIO. The total return of the Portfolio for the quarter ended June 30, 2003 was 13.54% compared to the 15.39% return achieved by the S&P 500 over the same period. The S&P 500 enjoyed a strong rally in the quarter, posting its best quarterly return since the fourth quarter of 1998. Encouraging fiscal and monetary policies, resilient consumer spending and positive earnings momentum contributed to the market's strength during the period. In general, small capitalization stocks outperformed large capitalization holdings during the quarter and value investing outperformed growth, a continuing theme from the same period last year. The total return of the Portfolio for the quarter ended June 30, 2002 was -11.64%. The performance of the Portfolio trailed the performance of the S&P 500 during the quarter ended June 30, 2003 primarily due to the Portfolio's relatively more defensive tilt and its de-emphasis of stocks considered by the Portfolio's investment adviser, Boston Management and Research (Boston Management), to be of lower quality. Higher volatility, lower quality stocks exhibited strong momentum across most industry groups during the period. The Portfolio's sector allocation during the quarter remained very similar to its positioning relative to the S&P 500 during the year ended December 31, 2002, with no major sector or industry shifts. The Portfolio's exposure to pharmaceuticals in the health care sector and media investments in the consumer discretionary sector was particularly beneficial to the Portfolio's performance during the quarter. Boston Management remained cautious in the technology and telecommunications sectors during the quarter, maintaining an underweight allocation comparable to the same period a year ago. The Portfolio continued its de-emphasis of stocks in the semiconductor equipment, peripherals, and wireless telecommunication industries. This posture has added to performance over longer time periods and during the same period a year ago, but hindered the Portfolio's performance during the second quarter of 2003. The Portfolio's overweight of the industrials sector in the areas of airfreight logistics and aerospace and defense, another continuing theme from last year, detracted from quarterly results, but has positively contributed to the Portfolio's longer-term returns. The Portfolio's continued de-emphasis of the utilities and materials sectors and the quality of its stock selection in those sectors was beneficial to performance during the quarter. 1 Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that Shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Comparison to the S&P 500 is for reference only. It is not possible to invest directly in an index. 15 PERFORMANCE OF REAL ESTATE INVESTMENTS. The Fund's real estate investments include Partnership Preference Units and an interest in a Real Estate Joint Venture. For the quarter ended June 30, 2003, the Fund's investments in Partnership Preference Units continued to benefit from declining interest rates and tightening spreads in income-oriented securities, particularly in real estate-related securities. At June 30, 2003, the estimated fair value of the Fund's Partnership Preference Units totaled $414.4 million compared to $397.0 million at June 30, 2002, an increase of $17.4 million or 4%. The Fund saw unrealized appreciation of the estimated fair value in its Partnership Preference Units of approximately $3.0 million during the quarter ended June 30, 2003 compared to approximately $11.4 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2002. Dividends received from Partnership Preference Units for the quarter ended June 30, 2003 totaled $9.7 million compared to $9.4 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2002, an increase of $0.3 million or 3%. The Fund conducts its real estate operations through a Real Estate Joint Venture that is majority-owned by Belair Real Estate Corporation (Belair Real Estate), a controlled subsidiary of the Fund. During the quarter ended June 30, 2003, the Fund's real estate operations continued to be impacted by weaker multifamily market fundamentals, as well as the uncertain outlook for the U.S. economy. The Fund's sale of its interest in Katahdin Property Trust LLC (Katahdin) in May 2002 reduced the scope of the Fund's real estate activities for the quarter ended June 30, 2003 as compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2002. Rental income from real estate operations decreased to $5.5 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2003 from $7.6 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2002, a decrease of $2.1 million or 28%. While this decrease in rental income principally resulted from the sale of the Fund's interest in Katahdin in 2002, rental income was also affected by increased rent concessions or reduced apartment rental rates and lower occupancy levels at properties owned by the Fund's remaining Real Estate Joint Venture, a trend that continued from 2002. Property operating expenses decreased to $2.5 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2003 from $3.1 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2002, a decrease of $0.6 million or 19% (property operating expenses are before debt service and certain operating expenses of Belair Real Estate of approximately $1.0 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2003 and approximately $0.9 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2002). The decrease in operating expenses was principally due to the sale of the Fund's interest in Katahdin. The decrease was partially offset by modest increases in property and maintenance, taxes and insurance expenses of the Fund's remaining Real Estate Joint Venture. Given the continued uncertain outlook for the U.S. economy as a whole, Boston Management, Belair Real Estate's manager, expects that real estate operating results for the Fund's remaining Real Estate Joint Venture in 2003 will continue to be modestly below the levels of 2002. At June 30, 2003, the estimated fair value of the real properties held through Belair Real Estate was $158.7 million compared to $156.3 million at June 30, 2002, an increase of $2.4 million or 2% (because the Fund sold its interest in Katahdin in May 2002, estimated property values at June 30, 2002 do not include the Katahdin properties). The modest increase in estimated real property values at June 30, 2003 resulted from declines in capitalization rates in a lower-return environment. Declines in capitalization rates more than offset the impact on property values of lower income level expectations. The Fund saw unrealized appreciation of the estimated fair value in its other real estate investments (which includes Belair Real Estate's interest in a Real Estate Joint Venture) of approximately $0.7 million during the quarter ended June 30, 2003 compared to approximately $2.2 million of unrealized depreciation for the quarter ended June 30, 2002. During the quarter ended June 30, 2002, the Fund sold its interest in Katahdin to another fund advised by Boston Management and recognized a loss of $9.5 million on the transaction. PERFORMANCE OF INTEREST RATE SWAP AGREEMENTS. For the quarter ended June 30, 2003, interest rate swap agreement values appreciated by $4.2 million due to the exercise of early termination options on a number of swap agreements and the remaining agreements approaching their initial optional termination dates. The appreciation was offset by a slight decline in swap rates. For the quarter ended June 30, 2002, the value of interest rate swap agreements decreased by $5.4 million due to a decline in swap rates. Approximately 61% of the notional amount of the Fund's existing interest rate swap agreements will reach their initial optional termination dates over the next five quarters and all remaining agreements will expire on February 10, 2005. 16 RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2003 COMPARED TO THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2002 PERFORMANCE OF THE FUND. The Fund's total return was 11.99% for the six months ended June 30, 2003. This return reflects an increase in the Fund's net asset value per share from $92.38 to $102.92 and a distribution of $0.49 per share during the period. For comparison, the S&P 500 had a total return of 11.75% over the same period. The performance of the Fund exceeded that of the Portfolio by approximately 3.80% during the period. Last year, the Fund had a total return performance of -12.26% for the six months ended June 30, 2002. This return reflected a decrease in the Fund's net asset value per share from $117.39 to $103.00. For comparison, the S&P 500 had a total return of -13.15% over the same period. The performance of the Fund trailed that of the Portfolio by approximately 1.32% for the six months ended June 30, 2002. PERFORMANCE OF THE PORTFOLIO. The total return of the Portfolio for the six months ended June 30, 2003 was 8.19% compared to the 11.75% return achieved by the S&P 500 over the same period. Market performance during the first six months of 2003 remained volatile, but markets proved resilient, achieving impressive returns and positively concluding the first half of the year. War angst, questionable economic recovery, and the SARS outbreak were just a few of the factors contributing to increased volatility and unsettled investor sentiment during the period. During the second quarter of 2003, an easing of geopolitical concerns, positive consumer data, a strong housing market, and a low interest rate environment provided significant support and a boost to the equity markets. The Portfolio's total return for the quarter ended June 30, 2002 was -10.94%. The Portfolio's performance trailed the S&P 500 in the first six months of 2003, mostly due to its lower exposure to higher volatility, lower quality stocks, which were the strongest price performers during the first six months of 2003. Despite this short-term performance, the Portfolio is committed to its investment strategy of seeking quality stocks that are reasonably priced in relation to their fundamental value. Boston Management continued to de-emphasize health care investments during the period, a directional move initiated last year that has been positive for the Portfolio's relative returns. Boston Management continued to emphasize industrial company investments, especially in the airfreight logistics and aerospace and defense areas, which has helped the Portfolio's longer-term record, but detracted from first half results. The Portfolio also maintained an overweight stance in the consumer discretionary and consumer staples sectors during the period, as it did in the first half of 2002. Lack of earning visibility during the period reinforced the Portfolio's cautious weighting in the telecommunications and information technology sectors. Both of the aforementioned sectors were de-emphasized last year as well. The Portfolio's underweight of diversified telecommunication service and software holdings relative to the S&P 500 was particularly beneficial to relative performance in the first half of 2003. Boston Management also continued to underweight the Portfolio's exposure to the materials and utilities sectors, a similar stance to last year's allocation. PERFORMANCE OF REAL ESTATE INVESTMENTS. For the six months ended June 30, 2003, the Fund's investments in Partnership Preference Units generally benefited from declining interest rates and tightening spreads in income-oriented securities, particularly in real estate-related securities. The estimated fair value of the Fund's Partnership Preference Units totaled $414.4 million at June 30, 2003 compared to $397.0 million at June 30, 2002, an increase of $17.4 million or 4%. The Fund saw unrealized appreciation in the estimated fair value of its Partnership Preference Units of approximately $27.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2003, compared to approximately $9.4 million during the six months ended June 30, 2002. Dividends received from Partnership Preference Units for the six months ended June 30, 2003 totaled $19.3 million compared to $18.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002, an increase of $1.2 million or 7%. Rental income from real estate operations decreased to $11.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 from $19.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002, a decrease of $8.0 million or 42%. Property operating expenses decreased to $5.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 from $7.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002, a decrease of $2.6 million or 34% (property operating expenses are before debt service and certain operating expenses of Belair Real Estate of approximately $1.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2003 and approximately $2.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002). While these decreases were principally due to the May 2002 sale of the Fund's 17 interest in Katahdin, weaker multifamily market fundamentals in most regions combined with lower occupancy levels and increased rent concessions also impacted results during the period, as did modest increases in operating expenses. At June 30, 2003, the estimated fair value of the real properties held through Belair Real Estate was $158.7 million compared to $156.3 million at June 30, 2002, an increase of $2.4 million or 2%. The increase was due to modest increases in estimated property values that resulted from declines in capitalization rates in a lower-return environment. The Fund saw unrealized appreciation of the estimated fair value in its other real estate investments of approximately $0.2 million during the six months ended June 30, 2003, compared to approximately $2.7 million of unrealized depreciation during the six months ended June 30, 2002. During the six months ended June 30, 2002, the Fund sold its interest in Katahdin to another fund advised by Boston Management and recognized a loss of $9.5 million on the transaction. PERFORMANCE OF INTEREST RATE SWAP AGREEMENTS. For the six months ended June 30, 2003, interest rate swap agreement values appreciated by approximately $10.5 million compared to appreciation of approximately $2.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002. The appreciation is primarily due to the exercise of early termination options during the first half of 2003 on a number of swap agreements and the remaining agreements approaching their initial optional termination dates. Swap rates declined during the periods, offsetting some of the appreciation from approaching terminations. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Effective July 15, 2003, the Fund refinanced its Credit Facility with Merrill Lynch International Bank by entering into new credit arrangements with DrKW Holdings, Inc. (DrKW) and Merrill Lynch Mortgage Capital, Inc. (MLMC) (collectively, the New Credit Facility), which together total $615 million. The New Credit Facility is secured by a pledge of the Fund's assets, excluding the assets of Bel Residential Properties Trust, and has a seven-year maturity. The New Credit Facility will expire in June 2010. The New Credit Facility is primarily used to fund the Fund's equity in real estate investments and will continue to be used for such purpose in the future. The New Credit Facility also provides for selling commissions, organizational expenses and any short-term liquidity needs of the Fund. Under certain circumstances, the Fund may increase the size of the New Credit Facility and the amount of outstanding borrowings thereunder for these purposes. The Fund has a $515 million credit arrangement with DrKW. Borrowings under the DrKW credit arrangement accrue interest at a rate of one-month LIBOR plus 0.30% per annum. As of July 15, 2003, outstanding borrowings under the DrKW credit arrangement totaled $515 million. The Fund has a $100 million credit arrangement with MLMC, including up to $10 million under letters of credit. Borrowings under the MLMC credit arrangement accrue interest at a rate of one-month LIBOR plus 0.38% per annum. As of July 15, 2003, outstanding borrowings under the MLMC credit arrangement totaled $17.8 million, with an additional $1.4 million outstanding under a letter of credit. The unused loan commitment amount totaled approximately $80.8 million. A commitment fee of 0.10% per annum is paid on the unused commitment amount. The Fund pays all fees associated with issuing the letters of credit. The Fund has entered into interest rate swap agreements with respect to its borrowings and real estate investments. Pursuant to these agreements, the Fund makes quarterly payments to the counterparty at predetermined fixed rates, in exchange for floating-rate payments at a predetermined spread to three-month LIBOR. During the terms of the outstanding swap agreements, changes in the underlying values of the swaps are recorded as unrealized gains or losses. As of June 30, 2003 and June 30, 2002, the unrealized depreciation related to the interest rate swap agreements was $10.9 million and $27.7 million, respectively. 18 CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES The Fund's discussion and analysis of its financial condition and results of operations are based upon its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires the Fund to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. The Fund bases these estimates, judgments and assumptions on historical experience and on other various factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. The Fund's critical accounting policies affect the Fund's more significant estimates and assumptions used in valuing the Fund's real estate investments and interest rate swap agreements. Prices are not readily available for these types of investments and therefore they are valued on an ongoing basis by Boston Management, in its capacity as manager of Belair Real Estate, in the case of the real estate investments, and in its capacity as the Fund's investment adviser, in the case of the interest rate swap agreements. In estimating the value of the Fund's investments in real estate, Boston Management takes into account relevant factors, data and information, including, with respect to investments in Partnership Preference Units, information from dealers and similar firms with knowledge of such issues and the prices of comparable preferred equity securities and other fixed or adjustable rate instruments having similar investment characteristics. Real estate investments other than Partnership Preference Units are generally stated at estimated fair values, which represent the amount at which the investments could be sold in a current transaction between willing parties, that is, other than in a forced or liquidation sale. Detailed investment valuations are performed at least annually and reviewed periodically. Interim valuations reflect results of operations and distributions, and may be adjusted if there has been a significant change in economic circumstances since the most recent independent valuation. Given that such valuations include many assumptions, including but not limited to the assumption that the investment could be sold in a transaction between willing parties, values may differ from amounts ultimately realized. Boston Management, as the Fund's investment adviser, determines the value of interest rate swaps, and, in doing so, may consider among other things, dealer and counter-party quotes and pricing models. The policies for valuing real estate investments involve significant judgments that are based upon, without limitation, general economic conditions, the supply and demand for different types of real properties, the financial health of tenants, the timing of lease expirations and terminations, fluctuations in rental rates and operating costs, exposure to adverse environmental conditions and losses from casualty or condemnation, interest rates, availability of financing, managerial performance and government rules and regulations. The valuations of Partnership Preference Units held by the Fund through its investment in Belair Real Estate fluctuate over time to reflect, among other factors, changes in interest rates, changes in perceived riskiness of such units (including call risk), changes in the perceived riskiness of comparable or similar securities trading in the public market and the relationship between supply and demand for comparable or similar securities trading in the public market. The value of interest rate swaps may be subject to wide swings in valuation caused principally by changes in interest rates. Interest rate swaps may be difficult to value since such instruments may be considered illiquid. Fluctuations in the value of Partnership Preference Units derived from changes in general interest rates can be expected to be offset in part (but not entirely) by changes in the value of interest rate swap agreements or other interest rate hedges entered into by the Fund with respect to its borrowings. Fluctuations in the value of real estate investments derived from other factors besides general interest rate movements (including issuer-specific and sector-specific credit concerns, property-specific concerns and changes in interest rate spread relationships) will not be offset by changes in the value of interest rate swap agreements or other interest rate hedges entered into by the Fund. Changes in the valuation of Partnership Preference Units not offset by changes in the valuation of interest rate swap agreements or other interest rate hedges entered into by the Fund and changes in the value of other real estate investments will cause the performance of the Fund to deviate from the performance of the Portfolio. ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK. The Fund's primary exposure to interest rate risk arises from its real estate investments that are financed by the Fund with floating rate borrowings under the Fund's Credit Facility and by fixed-rate secured mortgage debt obligations of the Real Estate Joint Venture. The interest rates on borrowings under the 19 Fund's Credit Facility are reset at regular intervals based on fixed and predetermined premiums to LIBOR for short-term extensions of credit. The Fund utilizes cancelable interest rate swap agreements to fix the cost of its borrowings under the Credit Facility and to mitigate the impact of interest rate changes on the Fund's net asset value. Under the terms of the interest rate swap agreements, the Fund makes cash payments at fixed rates in exchange for floating rate payments that fluctuate with three-month LIBOR. In the future, the Fund may use other interest rate hedging arrangements (such as caps, floors and collars) to fix or limit borrowing costs. The use of interest rate hedging arrangements is a specialized activity that can expose the Fund to significant loss. The value of Partnership Preference Units and, to a lesser degree, other real estate investments is sensitive to interest rate risk. Increases in interest rates generally will have an adverse affect on the value of Partnership Preference Units and other real estate investments. The following table summarizes the contractual maturities and weighted-average interest rates associated with the Fund's significant non-trading financial instruments. The Fund has no market risk sensitive instruments held for trading purposes. This information should be read in conjunction with Note 4 to the Fund's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in Item 1 above.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES. Eaton Vance Management (Eaton Vance), as the Fund's manager, with the participation of the Fund's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Fund's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined by Rule 13a-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Fund's disclosure controls and procedures were effective. There were no changes in the Fund's internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Fund's internal control over financial reporting.
