WARBURG PINCUS WORLDPERKS MONEY MARKET FUND SEMIANNUAL INVESTMENT ADVISER'S REPORT -- JUNE 30, 2000 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- August 4, 2000 Dear Shareholder: Economic indicators generally exhibited strength during the first half of the year, with the unemployment rate falling to its lowest level in over 30 years in the second quarter. While the level of domestic economic growth slowed in comparison to the spectacular pace exhibited at the end of 1999, it remained relatively robust during the semi-annual period. Despite gains in productivity, concern that imbalances between supply and demand would ignite inflation prompted the Federal Reserve to resume the tightening of monetary policy that had been placed on hold prior to the Y2K changeover. During the first half of the year, the federal funds rate was increased 25 basis points in both February and March and 50 basis points in May. While rates were left unchanged at the June Federal Open Market Committee meeting, the Fed may still tighten monetary policy later in the year due to concern that economic activity has not moderated sufficiently to prevent inflation. The annualized yield for Warburg Pincus WorldPerks Money Market Fund (the "Fund") for the seven-day period ended June 30, 2000 was 5.95%. Net assets rose 16% since December 31, 1999 and totaled $23.4 million at the end of June. Given expectations of higher rates, a relatively short average weighted maturity was maintained for most of the period. In June, however, the average weighted maturity was increased based on the outlook that the Federal Reserve would be on hold in the near term, and ended the period at 40 days. The Fund will continue to emphasize the highest quality securities in order to provide competitive returns without compromising safety and stability of principal. We appreciate your continued support and investment in the Fund. Eugene L. Podsiadlo BlackRock Institutional President Management Corporation Warburg Pincus Funds Sub-Investment Adviser 1 WARBURG PINCUS WORLDPERKS TAX FREE MONEY MARKET FUND SEMIANNUAL INVESTMENT ADVISER'S REPORT -- JUNE 30, 2000 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- August 4, 2000 Dear Shareholder: For the six-month period ended June 30, 2000, favorable economic conditions continued to promote a robust business expansion and unprecedented labor growth. Measures of inflation, at the producer and consumer level, were consistently within acceptable ranges as established by the Federal Reserve. Also, with the unemployment rate reporting an all-time low of 3.9% and consumer confidence reaching an all-time high of 144.7%, economic prosperity seemed endless. However, citing continued demand and the potential for inflationary imbalances, the Federal Open Market Committee implemented three successive increases in short-term interest rates beginning in February and ending in May. In the municipal money markets, both the first and second quarters experienced exceptional cash volatility and fluctuating interest rates. Notwithstanding seasonal patterns, such as January coupon money, Federal income tax period and maturing June 30 fiscal debt, a steepening yield curve did provide investment opportunities which offered incremental yield versus overnight investments. Various trades were made in the portfolio utilizing fixed coupon securities in the 3 to 9 month area of the yield curve, however, liquidity levels in the Fund were positioned to maximize any future increases in short-term interest rates. On June 30, 2000, the Fund's average weighted maturity was 40 days and the 30-day annualized yield was 3.45% without waivers and reimbursements. We appreciate your continued support and investment in the Fund. Eugene L.

See Accompanying Notes to Financial Statements. 13 WARBURG PINCUS WORLDPERKS MONEY MARKET AND WORLDPERKS TAX FREE MONEY MARKET FUNDS NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS June 30, 2000 (Unaudited) - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Warburg Pincus WorldPerks Money Market Fund (the "WorldPerks Money Market Fund") and Warburg Pincus WorldPerks Tax Free Money Market Fund (the "WorldPerks Tax Free Money Market Fund") are registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as diversified, open-end management investment companies. Investment objectives for each Fund are as follows: the WorldPerks Money Market Fund is designed to provide investors with high current income consistent with preservation of capital and liquidity; and the WorldPerks Tax Free Money Market Fund is designed to provide investors with as high a level of current income that is exempt from federal personal income taxes as is consistent with preservation of capital and liquidity. The net asset value of each Fund is determined twice daily as of noon and the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. Each Fund's investments are valued under the amortized cost method, which approximates market value, unless a Fund's Board of Directors determines that using this method would not reflect an investment's value. Amortized cost involves valuing a Fund holding initially at its cost and then assumes a constant amortization to maturity of any discount or premium. The amortized cost method ignores any impact of fluctuating interest rates. Security transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. The cost of investments sold is determined by use of the specific identification method for both financial reporting and income tax purposes. Dividends from net investment income are declared daily and paid monthly. Distributions of net realized capital gains, if any, are declared and paid annually, although the WorldPerks Money Market Fund may declare and pay short-term capital gains, if any, periodically as the Board of Directors determines. To the extent that a net realized capital gain can be reduced by a capital loss carryover, such gain will not be distributed. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles. No provision is made for federal income taxes as it is each Fund's intention to continue to qualify for and elect the tax treatment applicable to regulated investment companies under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and make the requisite distributions to its shareholders which will be sufficient to relieve it from federal income and excise taxes. 14 WARBURG PINCUS WORLDPERKS MONEY MARKET AND WORLDPERKS TAX FREE MONEY MARKET FUNDS NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONT'D) June 30, 2000 (Unaudited) - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES -- (CONT'D) Each Fund may enter into repurchase agreement transactions. Under the terms of a typical repurchase agreement, a Fund acquires an underlying security subject to an obligation of the seller to repurchase. Securities pledged as collateral for repurchase agreements are held by the Fund's custodian bank until the agreements mature. Each agreement requires that the market value of the collateral be sufficient to cover payments of interest and principal; however, in the event of default or bankruptcy by the other party to the agreement, retention of the collateral may be subject to legal proceedings. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Funds have an arrangement with their transfer agent whereby interest earned on uninvested cash balances was used to offset a portion of their transfer agent expense. For the six months ended June 30, 2000, each Fund received credits or reimbursements under this arrangement as follows: FOR SIX MONTHS ENDED FUND JUNE 30, 2000 ---- ------------- WorldPerks Money Market $2,779 WorldPerks Tax Free Money Market $1,461 2.
