American AAdvantage Funds December 31, 2003 [BILL QUINN PICTURE] FELLOW SHAREHOLDERS: I am pleased to present you with the Annual Report for the index series of the American AAdvantage Funds for the twelve months ended December 31, 2003. During this time, investors experienced both upward and downward market trends while successfully avoiding a fourth consecutive annual decline in the stock market (something that has not occurred since 1932). The reality seems to be that the economic recovery has arrived. The economy had to overcome the war with Iraq, the occupation of Afghanistan, and the SARS outbreak. However, the lowest Fed Funds rate in 45 years at 1.0% improved corporate earnings growth, and was reflected in the markets. Investors welcomed an "upswing" in the market as the major market indices posted significant gains for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003. The S&P 500 Index reported a gain of 28.68%, the MSCI EAFE Index increased 38.59%, and the Dow Jones Industrial Average was up 28.29%. During the year, the American AAdvantage S&P 500 Index Fund realized an increase of 28.26%, the American AAdvantage Small Cap Index Fund grew by 46.90%, and the American AAdvantage International Equity Index Fund returned 38.87%. As the economy rebounds, the index series of the American AAdvantage Funds will continue to pursue their objective to replicate the returns, before expenses, of each Fund's corresponding Index. Please review the enclosed portfolio listings and detailed financial data. As always, we welcome the opportunity to serve your financial needs. Should you have any questions about the enclosed information, please do not hesitate to contact us at 800-967-9009. You may also access Fund and account information at www.aafunds.com. Thank you for your continued confidence in the American AAdvantage Funds. Sincerely, -s- WILLIAM F. QUINN William F. Quinn, President American AAdvantage Funds 1 (AMERICAN EAGLE LOGO) 2 ECONOMIC OVERVIEW -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The year 2003 marked the end of the longest and deepest equity bear market since the Great Depression. Punctuated by better-than-expected earnings due to stunning productivity and modest revenue growth, the equity market recorded better-than-consensus returns. After a setback related to the start of war with Iraq, the market did not look back and never had more than a 5% pullback. As is common after a major bear market low, the best performers featured low-quality, high beta and small capitalization issues as well as those with earnings losses and low prices. At its June 25th meeting, the Federal Open Market Committee chose to lower rates to 1.00% from the 1.25% target at which they began 2003. This was the only rate change of the calendar year, as the Committee stated that an accommodative stance of monetary policy, coupled with robust underlying growth in productivity, is providing important ongoing support to economic activity. The S&P 500(R) Index closed at 1,111.92 on December 31st, its high for the year, and returned 28.7% for the twelve month period. While large cap stocks performed very well this year, small cap stocks stole the show. The Russell 2000(R) Index gained a whopping 47.3% for the year due to the exceptional performance of some of the lower quality companies. Within the large caps, value stocks outperformed growth for the year. The S&P 500/BARRA Value Index outperformed the S&P 500/BARRA Growth Index by over 6 percentage points in 2003, returning 31.8% and 25.7%, respectively. However, the reverse was true for small caps as the Russell 2000 Growth Index returned 48.5% while the Russell 2000 Value Index posted a return of 46.0% for the year. Favorable liquidity conditions, stimulative fiscal policy and rising earnings expectations have been responsible for the domestic equity bull market that began in October 2002. The stimulus from falling interest rates and excess liquidity is passing at the same time that the growth baton is being passed from the U.S. consumer to the rest of the U.S. economy and the world. Higher confidence levels regarding sustainability of growth, the waning of deflation fears and a declining dollar are likely to cause rising interest rates. Earnings growth is key for the equity bull market to continue. The year turned out to be a great period for international investors. After a difficult start with a negative first quarter, most investment markets rose for the remainder of 2003. Equities broke their 3-year losing streak, bonds produced another strong year, and commodity prices soared. For the year ended December 31, 2003, the MSCI EAFE Index posted an impressive total return of 38.6%, the first positive calendar year return since 1999. The European markets moved upward over the year with the price returns of the Dow Jones STOXX 50 up 10.5% in Euros and the FTSE up 13.6% in Sterling. In Japan, the Nikkei 225 Index price rose 24.5% in Yen. Over the calendar year, the European Central Bank cut rates twice from 2.75% to 2.50% and from 2.50% to 2.00%, the lowest level since 1999. Low rate levels reflected an effort to boost Europe's struggling economy and counter the Euro's rise, as Euro strengthening negatively affects export competitiveness. Despite decreasing rates, the Euro appreciated 20.2% versus the U.S. Dollar. The starting point for 2004 is very different from a year ago. Rather than struggling in the depths of depression, equity investors are optimistic and this optimism has been reflected in valuations. European earnings remain cyclically depressed and have the potential to surprise in 2004 as Europe lags the global recovery. In addition, Europe has the greatest potential for a recovery in M&A activity. The German financial system, so near to the brink a year ago, is healthier although still wobbly. Japan has sidestepped a major banking crisis and the economy is growing. In general the starting position is on the other side of the track from 12 months ago.

1 Past performance is not indicative of future performance. The investment return and principal value of an investment in the Fund will fluctuate so that an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Fund performance in the table above does not reflect the deduction of taxes a shareholder would pay on distributions or the redemption of shares. 2 Fund performance for the since inception period represents the total returns achieved by the Institutional Class from 12/31/96 up to 3/2/98, the inception date of the PlanAhead Class, and the returns of the PlanAhead Class since its inception. Expenses of the PlanAhead Class are higher than those of the Institutional Class. Therefore, total returns shown may be higher than they would have been had the PlanAhead Class been in existence since 12/31/96. Nobody predicted such handsome equity returns in 2003, but we will take them after three consecutive years of poor performance. A fourth down year would have been an event not experienced since the equity market crash of 1929 and the subsequent three years. Contributing to the good performance this year was ample liquidity provided on the fiscal and monetary fronts, an improving economy, and less geo-political risk, especially after the capture of Saddam Hussein. All ten sectors of the S&P 500 had positive returns for the 2003 calendar year. The sectors with the highest returns in 2003 were Information Technology (up 46.1%) and Materials (up 38.2%). Strong performers in Information Technology included Yahoo (up 175.4%), Intel (up 106.6%) and EMC Corp (up 110.4%). Notable names in the Materials sector included Alcoa (up 70.9%), Newmont Mining (up 68.2%) and Dow Chemical (up 45.7%). The prospects for continued economic growth in 2004 look promising. The consumer continues to spend, monetary and fiscal policy remain stimulative, capital spending has turned, job growth has begun and export markets are awakening. With that in mind, the portfolio is expected to continue to meet its objective of closely replicating, before expenses, the return of its benchmark, the S&P 500 Index. TOP TEN HOLDINGS

See notes to financial statements. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 10 AMERICAN AADVANTAGE FUNDS NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS December 31, 2003 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES American AAdvantage Funds (the "Trust") is organized as a Massachusetts business trust and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the "Act"), as amended, as a no load, open-end management investment company. These financial statements and notes to the financial statements relate to the American AAdvantage S&P 500 Index Fund, the American AAdvantage Small Cap Index Fund and the American AAdvantage International Equity Index Fund (each a "Fund" and collectively, the "Funds"), each a series of the Trust. The S&P 500 Index Fund commenced operations on December 31, 1996, and commenced sale of a second class of shares of the Fund, designated as "PlanAhead Class" shares, on March 2, 1998. The Institutional Classes of the Small Cap Index and the International Equity Index Funds commenced operations on July 31, 2000. Each Fund invests all of its investable assets in a corresponding portfolio. The State Street Equity 500 Index Portfolio, Master Small Cap Index Series and the Master International Index Series (each a "Portfolio" and collectively the "Portfolios") are open-ended management investment companies registered under the Act. The value of such investment reflects each Fund's proportionate interest in the net assets of the corresponding Portfolio.

The financial statements of the Portfolios are included elsewhere in this report and should be read in conjunction with the Funds' financial statements. AMR Investment Services, Inc. (the "Manager") is a wholly-owned subsidiary of AMR Corporation, the parent company of American Airlines, Inc. ("American"), and was organized in 1986 to provide business management, advisory, administrative and asset management consulting services to the Trust and other investors. The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies followed by the Funds. Valuation of Investments Valuation of securities by each Portfolio is discussed in the Portfolio's Notes to Financial Statements which are included elsewhere in this report. Investment Income Each Fund records its share of net investment income and realized and unrealized gains and losses from the security transactions of its corresponding Portfolio each day. All net investment income and realized and unrealized gains (losses) of the Portfolio are allocated pro rata among the investors in the Portfolio at the time of such determination. Dividends Dividends from net investment income of the Small Cap Index and International Equity Index Funds normally will be declared and paid annually. The S&P 500 Index Fund normally will declare and pay dividends quarterly. Distributions of net realized capital gains earned by the Funds, if any, -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 11 AMERICAN AADVANTAGE FUNDS NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- CONTINUED December 31, 2003 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- will be paid annually. Dividends are determined in accordance with income tax principles which may treat certain transactions differently than generally accepted accounting principles. The tax character of distributions during the year ended December 31, 2003 and the fiscal year ended December 31, 2002 were as follows (in thousands):

As of December 31, 2003 the components of distributable earnings were as follows (in thousands):
INTERNATIONAL S&P 500 INDEX SMALL CAP INDEX EQUITY INDEX ------------- --------------- ------------- COST BASIS OF INVESTMENTS FOR FEDERAL INCOME TAX........................................... $257,562 $60,918 $ 9,320 Gross tax unrealized appreciation.......... 80,293 8,415 920 Gross tax unrealized depreciation.......... (57,868) (3,168) (196) -------- ------- ------- Net tax unrealized appreciation of investments.............................. 22,425 5,247 724 Undistributed ordinary income.............. 145 20 36 Undistributed long-term loss............... (23,182) (245) (1,111) -------- ------- ------- TOTAL UNDISTRIBUTED EARNINGS.................... $ (612) $ 5,022 $ (351) ======== ======= =======
The temporary differences between book-basis and tax-basis unrealized appreciation/(depreciation) is attributable primarily to the tax deferral of losses from wash sales, the realization for tax purposes of unrealized gains/(losses) on certain derivative instruments, the difference between book and tax amortization for premium and market discount, and the realization for tax purposes of unrealized gains/(losses) on investment in passive foreign investment companies. Due to inherent differences in the recognition of income, expenses and realized gains/losses under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and federal income tax purposes, permanent differences between book and tax reporting have been identified and appropriately reclassified on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. S&P 500 Index and International Equity Index Funds reclassified $244 and $10, respectively, of undistributed net investment income to paid-in capital. S&P 500 Index Fund reclassed $17 of undistributed net investment income to accumulated net realized loss. International Equity Index Fund reclassified $2 of undistributed net investment income to unrealized net appreciation of investments and futures contracts. S&P 500 Index, Small Cap Index and International Equity Index Fund reclassified $768, $126 and $60, respectively, of accumulated net realized loss to paid-in capital. S&P 500 Index Fund reclassed $4 of paid-in capital to unrealized net appreciation of investments and futures contracts. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 12 AMERICAN AADVANTAGE FUNDS NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- CONTINUED December 31, 2003 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Federal Income and Excise Taxes 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 net investment income as well as any net realized capital gains on the sale of investments. Therefore, no federal income or excise tax provision is required. At December 31, 2003, capital loss carryforward positions for federal income tax purposes were as follows (in thousands):
CAPITAL LOSS CARRYOVER FUND AMOUNT EXPIRES ---- ------------ --------- S&P 500 Index............................................... $23,182 2005-2011 Small Cap Index............................................. 245 2008-2010 International Equity Index.................................. 1,111 2009-2011
Net capital loss carryovers utilized for the period ended December 31, 2003 by the Small Cap Index Fund amounted to $401. Allocation of Income, Expenses, Gains and Losses Income, expenses (other than those attributable to a specific class), gains and losses are allocated daily to each class of shares based upon the relative proportion of net assets represented by such class. Operating expenses directly attributable to a specific class are charged against the operations of that class. Valuation of Shares The price per share is calculated on each day on which shares are offered for sale and orders accepted or upon receipt of a redemption request. Net asset value per share is computed by dividing the value of each Fund's total assets (which includes the value of the Fund's investment in its Portfolio), less liabilities, by the number of Fund shares outstanding. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. 2. FEES AND TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES Administrative Services Agreement The Manager and the Trust entered into an Administrative Services Agreement that obligates the Manager to provide or oversee administrative and management services to the Fund. As compensation for performing the duties required under the Administrative Services Agreement, the Manager receives an annualized fee of 0.05% of the average daily net assets of the Institutional Class of the S&P 500 Index Fund, International Equity Index Fund, and Small Cap Index Fund and an annualized fee of 0.25% of the average daily net assets of the PlanAhead Class of the S&P 500 Index Fund. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 13 AMERICAN AADVANTAGE FUNDS NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- CONTINUED December 31, 2003 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Service Agreement The Manager and the Trust entered into a Service Agreement which obligates the Manager to oversee additional shareholder servicing of the PlanAhead Class of the S&P 500 Index Fund. As compensation for performing the duties required under the Service Agreement, the Manager receives 0.25% based on the daily net assets of the PlanAhead Class of the S&P 500 Index Fund. Other Certain officers or Trustees of the Trust are also officers of the Manager or American. The Trust makes no direct payments to its officers. Unaffiliated Trustees and their spouses are provided unlimited air transportation on American. However, the Trust compensates each Trustee with payments in an amount equal to the Trustee's income tax on the value of this free airline travel. For the year ended December 31, 2003, the cost of air transportation for the Trustees was not material to any of the Funds. One Trustee, as a retiree of American, already receives flight benefits. This Trustee receives an annual retainer of $40,000 plus $1,250 for each Board meeting attended. At December 31, 2003, the employee benefit plans of AMR Corporation and its subsidiary companies owned 89.7% of the Institutional Class of the S&P 500 Index Fund and 100% of the Institutional Class of both the Small Cap Index and International Equity Index Funds. Reimbursement of Expenses For the period ended December 31, 2003, the Manager reimbursed expenses totaling $4,631 to the PlanAhead Class of the S&P 500 Index Fund. 3.

These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Funds' management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits. The financial highlights of the American AAdvantage S&P 500 Index Fund for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1999 were audited by other auditors whose report dated February 11, 2000 expressed an unqualified opinion on those statements. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the 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. An audit includes examining on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements and financial highlights. Our procedures included confirmation of investments owned as of December 31, 2003, by correspondence with the custodian or other audit procedures. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. 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 each of the respective American AAdvantage Funds at December 31, 2003, the results of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in their net assets for each of the two years then ended and the financial highlights for each of the fiscal periods since December 31, 2000, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. -s- ERNST & YOUNG LLP Chicago, Illinois February 13, 2004 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 20 AMERICAN AADVANTAGE FUNDS OFFICERS AND TRUSTEES (unaudited) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Trustees and officers of the Trust are listed below, together with their principal occupations during the past five years.

ORGANIZATION: The State Street Master Funds (the "Trust") is a registered and diversified open-end investment company, as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), that was organized as a business trust under the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts on July 27, 1999. The Trust comprises seven investment portfolios: the State Street Equity 500 Index Portfolio, the State Street Equity 400 Index Portfolio, the State Street Equity 2000 Index Portfolio, the State Street MSCI(R) EAFE(R)Index Portfolio, the State Street Aggregate Bond Index Portfolio, the State Street Money Market Portfolio, and the State Street U.S. Government Money Market Portfolio. Information presented in these financial statements pertains only to the State Street Equity 500 Index Portfolio (the "Portfolio"). At December 31, 2003, only the Portfolio and State Street MSCI(R) EAFE(R) Index Portfolio had commenced operations. Pursuant to the Trust's Declaration of Trust, the Board of Trustees may issue an unlimited number of non-transferable beneficial interests. The Portfolio's investment objective is to replicate, as closely as possible, before expenses, the performance of the Standard & Poor's 500 Composite Stock Price Index (the "S&P 500 Index"). The Portfolio uses a passive management strategy designed to track the performance of the S&P 500 Index. The S&P500 Index is a well-known, unmanaged, stock index that includes common stocks of 500 companies from several industrial sectors representing a significant portion of the market value of all stocks publicly traded in the United States. 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES: The Portfolio's financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles that require the use of management estimates. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Portfolio in the preparation of its financial statements. Security Valuation The Portfolio's investments are valued each business day by independent pricing services. Equity securities for which market quotations are available are valued at the last sale price or official closing price (closing bid price if no sale has occurred) on the primary market or exchange on which they trade. Investments in other mutual funds are valued at the net asset value per share. Fixed-income securities and options are valued on the basis of the closing bid price. Futures contracts are valued on the basis of the last sale price. Money market instruments maturing within 60 days of the valuation date are valued at amortized cost, a method by which each money market instrument is initially valued at cost, and thereafter a constant accretion or amortization of any discount or premium is recorded until maturity of the security. The Portfolio may value securities for which market quotations are not readily available at "fair value," as determined in good faith pursuant to procedures established by the Board of Trustees. Securities Transactions, Investment Income and Expenses Securities transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income is recorded daily on the accrual basis and includes amortization of premium and accretion of discount on investments. Realized gains and losses from securities transactions are recorded on the basis of identified cost. Expenses are accrued daily based on average daily net assets. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 33 STATE STREET EQUITY 500 INDEX PORTFOLIO NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- CONTINUED December 31, 2003 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- All of the net investment income and realized and unrealized gains and losses from the security transactions of the Portfolio are allocated pro rata among the partners in the Portfolio based on each partner's daily ownership percentage. Federal Income Taxes The Portfolio is not required to pay federal income taxes on its net investment income and net capital gains because it is treated as a partnership for federal income tax purposes. All interest, dividends, gains and losses of the Portfolio are deemed to have been "passed through" to the Portfolio's partners in proportion to their holdings in the Portfolio, regardless of whether such items have been distributed by the Portfolio. Each partner is responsible for tax liability based on its distributive share; therefore, no provision has been made for federal income taxes. Futures The Portfolio may enter into financial futures contracts as part of its strategy to track the performance of the S&P 500 Index. Upon entering into a futures contract, the Portfolio is required to deposit with the broker cash or securities in an amount equal to a certain percentage of the contract amount. Variation margin payments are made or received by the Portfolio each day, depending on the daily fluctuations in the value of the underlying security or index, and are recorded for financial statement purposes as unrealized gains or losses by the Portfolio. The Portfolio recognizes a realized gain or loss when the contract is closed. The Portfolio voluntarily segregates securities in an amount equal to the outstanding value of the open futures contracts in accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") requirements. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are an imperfect correlation between the change in market value of the securities held by the Portfolio and the prices of futures contracts and the possibility of an illiquid market. Securities Lending The Trust, on behalf of the Portfolio, entered into a Securities Lending Agreement (the "Agreement") with State Street Bank and Trust Company ("State Street"). Under the terms of the Agreement, the Portfolio may lend portfolio securities to qualified borrowers in order to earn additional income. The Agreement requires that loans are secured at all times by cash, U.S. Government securities or irrevocable lines of credit in an amount at least equal to 102% of the market value of domestic securities loaned (105% in the case of foreign securities), plus accrued interest and dividends, determined on a daily basis. Proceeds collected by State Street on investment of cash collateral or any fee income is allocated as follows: 75% to the Portfolio and 25% to State Street. For the year ended December 31, 2003, the earned income for the Portfolio and State Street was $81,642 and $27,214, respectively. The primary risk associated with securities lending is that if the borrower defaults on its obligation to return the securities loaned because of insolvency or other reasons, the Portfolio could experience delays and costs in recovering the securities loaned or in gaining access to the collateral. At December 31, 2003, the value of the securities loaned amounted to $78,107,395. The loans were collateralized with cash of $71,146,646, which the Portfolio then invested in the State Street Navigator Securities Lending Prime Portfolio (the "Prime Portfolio"), an affiliated investment company, and letters of credit from JPMorgan Chase Bank and BNP Paribas in the amounts of $3,321,220 and $5,646,074, respectively. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 34 STATE STREET EQUITY 500 INDEX PORTFOLIO NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- CONTINUED December 31, 2003 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 3. SECURITIES TRANSACTIONS: For the year ended December 31, 2003, purchases and sales of investment securities, excluding short-term investments, futures contracts, and in-kind contributions and withdrawals, aggregated to $406,389,749 and $259,097,959, respectively. The aggregate value of in-kind contributions and withdrawals were $19,659,189 and $0, respectively. At December 31, 2003, the cost of investments computed on a federal income tax basis was $2,575,543,868. The aggregate gross unrealized appreciation and gross unrealized depreciation was $587,116,576 and $423,141,026, respectively, resulting in net appreciation of $163,975,550. The differences between book and tax cost amounts are primarily due to wash sales loss deferrals. 4. RELATED PARTY FEES AND TRANSACTIONS: The Portfolio has entered into an investment advisory agreement with SSgAFunds Management, Inc. ("SSgA"), a subsidiary of State Street Corp. and an affiliate of State Street, under which SSgA directs the investments of the Portfolio in accordance with its investment objective, policies, and limitations. The Trust has contracted with State Street to provide custody, administration and transfer agent services to the Portfolio. In compensation for SSgA's services as investment adviser and for State Street's services as administrator, custodian and transfer agent (and for assuming ordinary operating expenses of the Portfolio, including ordinary legal, audit and trustees fees expenses), State Street receives a unitary fee, calculated daily, at the annual rate of 0.045% of the Portfolio's average daily net assets. Certain investments made by the Portfolio represent securities affiliated with State Street and SSgA. Investments made with cash collateral received from securities loaned were used to purchase shares of the Prime Portfolio, which is offered by State Street and advised by SSgA. Investments in State Street Corp., the holding company of State Street, were made according to its representative portion of the S&P 500 Index. The market value of each of these investments at December 31, 2003 is listed in the Portfolio of Investments. During the year, the Portfolio had investment transactions executed through State Street Global Markets LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of State Street Corp., and an affiliated broker-dealer of SSgA. For the year ended December 31, 2003, the Portfolio paid brokerage commissions to State Street Global Markets LLC of $366,175. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 35 STATE STREET EQUITY 500 INDEX PORTFOLIO REPORT OF ERNST & YOUNG LLP, INDEPENDENT AUDITORS -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- To the Board of Trustees of State Street Master Funds and Owners of Beneficial Interest of State Street Equity 500 Index Portfolio: We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the portfolio of investments, of the State Street Equity 500 Index Portfolio (one of the portfolios constituting State Street Master Funds) (the "Portfolio") as of December 31, 2003, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statement of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated therein. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Portfolio'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 auditing standards generally accepted in the 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. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements and financial highlights. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2003, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES: Master Small Cap Index Series (the "Series") is part of Quantitative Master Series Trust (the "Trust"). The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, and is organized as a Delaware statutory trust. The Declaration of Trust permits the Trustees to issue nontransferable interests in the Trust, subject to certain limitations. The Series' financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which may require the use of management accruals and estimates. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Series. A. Valuation of investments Equity securities that are held by the Series that are traded on stock exchanges or the Nasdaq National Market are valued at the last sale price or official close price on the exchange, as of the close of business on the day the securities are being valued or, lacking any sales, at the last available bid price for long positions, and at the last available ask price for short positions. In cases where equity securities are traded on more than one exchange, the securities are valued on the exchange designated as the primary market by or under the authority of the Board of Trustees of the Trust. Long positions traded in the over-the-counter ("OTC") market, Nasdaq Small Cap or Bulletin Board are valued at the last available bid price or yield equivalent obtained from one or more dealers or pricing services approved by the Board of Trustees of the Trust. Short positions traded in the OTC market are valued at the last available ask price. Portfolio securities that are traded both in the OTC market and on a stock exchange are valued according to the broadest and most representative market. Options written are valued at the last sale price in the case of exchange-traded options or, in the case of options traded in the OTC market, the last ask price. Options purchased are valued at their last sale price in the case of exchange-traded options or, in the case of options traded in the OTC market, the last bid price. Swap agreements are valued daily based upon quotations from market makers. Financial futures contracts and options thereon, which are traded on exchanges, are valued at their last sale price as of the close of such exchanges. Obligations with remaining maturities of 60 days or less are valued at amortized cost unless the Investment Adviser believes that this method no longer produces fair valuations. Repurchase agreements are valued at cost plus accrued interest. The Series employs pricing services to provide certain securities prices for the Series. Securities and assets for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by or under the direction of the Board of Trustees of the Trust, including valuations furnished by the pricing services retained by the Series, which may use a matrix system for valuations. The procedures of a pricing service and its valuations are reviewed by the officers of the Series under the general supervision by the Board of Trustees of the Trust. Such valuations and procedures will be reviewed periodically by the Board of Trustees of the Trust. Generally, trading in foreign securities, as well as U.S. government securities and money market instruments, is substantially completed each day at various times prior to the close of business on the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE"). The values of such securities used in computing the net assets of the Series are determined as of such times. Foreign currency exchange rates also are generally determined prior to the close of business on the NYSE. Occasionally, events affecting the values of such securities and such exchange rates may occur between the times at which they are determined and the close of business on the NYSE that may not be reflected in the computation of -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 74 MASTER SMALL CAP INDEX SERIES NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS December 31, 2003 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- the Series' net assets. If events (for example, a company announcement, market volatility or a natural disaster) occur during such periods that are expected to materially affect the value of such securities, those securities may be valued at their fair value as determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees of the Trust or by the Investment Adviser using a pricing service and/or procedures approved by the Board of Trustees of the Trust. B. Derivative financial instruments The Series may engage in various portfolio investment strategies both to increase the return of the Series and to hedge, or protect, its exposure to interest rate movements and movements in the securities markets. Losses may arise due to changes in the value of the contract or if the counterparty does not perform under the contract. - Financial futures contracts - The Series may purchase or sell financial futures contracts and options on such futures contracts. Futures contracts are contracts for delayed delivery of securities at a specific future date and at a specific price or yield. Upon entering into a contract, the Series deposits and maintains as collateral such initial margin as required by the exchange on which the transaction is effected. Pursuant to the contract, the Series agrees to receive from or pay to the broker an amount of cash equal to the daily fluctuation in value of the contract. Such receipts or payments are known as variation margin and are recorded by the Series as unrealized gains or losses. When the contract is closed, the Series records a realized 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. - Options - The Series may purchase and write call and put options. When the Series writes an option, an amount equal to the premium received by the Series is reflected as an asset and an equivalent liability. The amount of the liability is subsequently marked to market to reflect the current market value of the option written. When a security is purchased or sold through an exercise of an option, the related premium paid (or received) is added to (or deducted from) the basis of the security acquired or deducted from (or added to) the proceeds of the security sold. When an option expires (or the Series enters into a closing transaction), the Series realizes a gain or loss on the option to the extent of the premiums received or paid (or a gain or loss to the extent that the cost of the closing transaction exceeds the premium paid or received). Written and purchased options are non-income producing investments. C. Income taxes The Series is classified as a partnership for Federal income tax purposes. As such, each investor in the Series is treated as owner of its proportionate share of the net assets, income, expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses of the Series. Therefore, no Federal income tax provision is required. Under the applicable foreign tax law, a withholding tax may be imposed on interest, dividends and capital gains at various rates. It is intended that the Series' assets will be managed so an investor in the Series can satisfy the requirements of subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code. D. Security transactions and investment income Security transactions are accounted for on the date the securities are purchased or sold (the trade dates). Realized gains and losses on security transactions are determined on the identified cost -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 75 MASTER SMALL CAP INDEX SERIES NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS December 31, 2003 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend dates. Interest income is recognized on the accrual basis. E. Securities lending The Series may lend securities to financial institutions that provide cash or securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government as collateral, which will be maintained at all times in an amount equal to at least 100% of the current market value of the loaned securities. The market value of the loaned securities is determined at the close of business of the Series and any additional required collateral is delivered to the Series on the next business day. Where the Series receives securities as collateral for the loaned securities, it collects a fee from the borrower. The Series typically receives the income on the loaned securities but does not receive the income on the collateral. Where the Series receives cash collateral, it may invest such collateral and retain the amount earned on such investment, net of any amount rebated to the borrower. Loans of securities are terminable at any time and the borrower, after notice, is required to return borrowed securities within five business days. The Series may pay reasonable finder's, lending agent, administrative and custodial fees in connection with its loans. In the event that the borrower defaults on its obligation to return borrowed securities because of insolvency or for any other reason, the Series could experience delays and costs in gaining access to the collateral. The Series also could suffer a loss where the value of the collateral falls below the market value of the borrowed securities, in the event of borrower default or in the event of losses on investments made with cash collateral. F. Custodian bank The Series recorded an amount payable to the custodian bank reflecting an overnight overdraft, which resulted from management estimates of available cash. 2. INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT AND TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES: The Trust has entered into an Investment Advisory Agreement with Fund Asset Management, L.P. ("FAM"). The general partner of FAM is Princeton Services, Inc. ("PSI"), an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of Merrill Lynch & Co., Inc. ("ML & Co."), which is the limited partner. FAM is responsible for the management of the Series' portfolio and provides the necessary personnel, facilities, equipment and certain other services necessary to the operations of the Series. For such services, the Series pays a monthly fee at an annual rate of .01% of the average daily value of the Series' net assets. FAM has entered into a contractual arrangement with the Series under which the expenses incurred by the Series will not exceed .09%. Effective January 1, 2003, the limit increased from .08% to .09%. This arrangement expires December 31, 2004 and is renewable. FAM earned fees of $22,670, all of which were waived. In addition, FAM reimbursed the Series for additional expenses of $3,422. Merrill Lynch Trust Company, an indirect, wholly-owned Subsidiary of ML & Co., is the Series' Custodian. The Trust has received an exemptive order from the Securities and Exchange Commission permitting it to lend portfolio securities to Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated ("MLPF&S") or its affiliates. As of December 31, 2003, the Series lent securities with a value of$397, 133 to MLPF&S or its affiliates. Pursuant to that order, the Trust also has retained Merrill Lynch Investment Managers, LLC ("MLIM, LLC"), an affiliate of FAM, as the securities lending agent for a -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 76 MASTER SMALL CAP INDEX SERIES NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS December 31, 2003 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- fee based on a share of the returns on investment of cash collateral. MLIM, LLC may, on behalf of the Trust and the Series, invest cash collateral received by the Series for such loans, among other things, in a private investment company managed by MLIM, LLC or in registered money market Series advised by FAM or its affiliates. For the year ended December 31, 2003, MLIM, LLC received $20,831 in securities lending agent fees from the Series. For the year ended December 31, 2003, the Series reimbursed FAM $4,577 for certain accounting services. Certain officers and/or trustees of the Trust are officers and/or directors of FAM, PSI, and/or ML & Co. 3. INVESTMENTS: Purchases and sales of investments, excluding short-term securities, for the year ended December 31, 2003 were $100,145,506 and $60,224,191, respectively. Net realized gains (losses) for the year ended December 31, 2003 and net unrealized gains as of December 31, 2003 were as follows:
REALIZED GAINS UNREALIZED (LOSSES) GAINS -------------- ----------- Long-term investments.................................. $(3,404,071) $42,421,447 Financial futures contracts............................ 3,863,640 1,804,556 ----------- ----------- Total.................................................. $ 459,569 $44,226,003 =========== ===========
As of December 31, 2003, net unrealized appreciation for Federal income tax purposes aggregated $39,217,195, of which $62,897,826 related to appreciated securities and $23,680,631 related to depreciated securities. At December 31, 2003, the aggregate cost of investments for Federal income tax purposes was $303,070,494. 4. SHORT-TERM BORROWINGS: The Series, along with certain other Series managed by FAM and its affiliates, is a party to a $500,000,000 credit agreement with Bank One, N.A. and certain other lenders. The Series may borrow under the credit agreement to Series shareholder redemptions and for other lawful purposes other than for leverage. The Series may borrow up to the maximum amount allowable under the Fund's current prospectus and statement of additional information, subject to various other legal, regulatory or contractual limits. The Series pays a commitment fee of .09% per annum based on the Series' pro rata share of the unused portion of the credit agreement. Amounts borrowed under the credit agreement bear interest at a rate equal to, at each fund's election, the Federal Funds rate plus .50% or a base rate as determined by Bank One, N.A. On November 28, 2003, the credit agreement was renewed for one year under the same terms. The Series did not borrow under the credit agreement during the year ended December 31, 2003. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 77 MASTER SMALL CAP INDEX SERIES INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT December 31, 2003 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- To the Investors and Board of Trustees of Quantitative Master Series Trust: We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the schedule of investments, of Master Small Cap Index Series one of the portfolios constituting the Quantitative Master Series Trust (the "Trust") as of December 31, 2003, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of 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 Trust'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 auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. 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 mis-statement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2003, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers; where replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. 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 Master Small Cap Index Series of the Quantitative Master Series Trust as of December 31, 2003, 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 its 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.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES: Master International Index Series (the "Series") is part of Quantitative Master Series Trust (the "Trust"). The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, and is organized as a Delaware statutory trust. The Declaration of Trust permits the Trustees to issue non-transferable interests in the Series, subject to certain limitations. The Series' financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America,which may require the use of management accruals and estimates. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Series. A. Valuation of investments Equity securities that are held by the Series that are traded on stock exchanges or the Nasdaq National Market are valued at the last sale price or official close price on the exchange, as of the close of business on the day the securities are being valued or, lacking any sales, at the last available bid price for long positions, and at the last available ask price for short positions. In cases where equity securities are traded on more than one exchange, the securities are valued on the exchange designated as the primary market by or under the authority of the Board of Trustees of the Trust. Long positions traded in the over-the-counter ("OTC") market, Nasdaq Small Cap or Bulletin Board are valued at the last available bid price or yield equivalent obtained from one or more dealers or pricing services approved by the Board of Trustees of the Trust. Short positions traded in the OTC market are valued at the last available ask price. Portfolio securities that are traded both in the OTC market and on a stock exchange are valued according to the broadest and most representative market. Options written are valued at the last sale price in the case of exchange-traded options or, in the case of options traded in the OTC market,the last ask price. Options purchased are valued at their last sale price in the case of exchange-traded options or, in the case of options traded in the OTC market, the last bid price. Swap agreements are valued daily based upon quotations from market makers. Financial futures contracts and options thereon, which are traded on exchanges, are valued at their last sale price as of the close of such exchanges. Obligations with remaining maturities of 60 days or less are valued at amortized cost unless the Investment Adviser believes that this method no longer produces fair valuations. Repurchase agreements are valued at cost plus accrued interest. The Series employs pricing services to provide certain securities prices for the Series. Securities and assets for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by or under the direction of the Board of Trustees of the Trust, including valuations furnished by the pricing services retained by the Series, which may use a matrix system for valuations. The procedures of a pricing service and its valuations are reviewed by the officers of the Series under the general supervision of the Trust's Board of Trustees. Such valuations and procedures will be reviewed periodically by the Board of Trustees of the Trust. Generally, trading in foreign securities,as well as U.S. government securities and money market instruments, is substantially completed each day at various times prior to the close of business on the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE"). The values of such securities used in computing the net assets of the Series are determined as of such times. Foreign currency exchange rates also are generally determined prior to the close of business on the NYSE. Occasionally, events affecting the values of such securities and such exchange rates may occur between the times at which they are determined and the close of business on the NYSE that may not be reflected in the computation of -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 109 MASTER INTERNATIONAL INDEX SERIES NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- CONTINUED December 31, 2003 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- the Series' net assets. If events (for example, a company announcement, market volatility or a natural disaster) occur during such periods that are expected to materially affect the value of such securities, those securities may be valued at their fair value as determined in good faith by the Trust's Board of Trustees or by the Investment Adviser using a pricing service and/or procedures approved by the Trust's Board of Trustees. B. Derivative financial instruments The Series may engage in various portfolio investment strategies to provide liquidity or as a proxy for a direct investment in securities underlying the Series' index. Losses may arise due to changes in the value of the contract or if the counterparty does not perform under the contract. - Financial futures contracts - The Series may purchase or sell financial futures contracts and options on such futures contracts. Futures contracts are contracts for delayed delivery of securities at a specific future date and at a specific price or yield. Upon entering into a contract, the Series deposits and maintains as collateral such initial margin as required by the exchange on which the transaction is effected. Pursuant to the contract, the Series agrees to receive from or pay to the broker an amount of cash equal to the daily fluctuation in value of the contract. Such receipts or payments are known as variation margin and are recorded by the Series as unrealized gains or losses. When the contract is closed, the Series records a realized 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. - Options - The Series may purchase and write call and put options. When the Series writes an option, an amount equal to the premium received by the Series is reflected as an asset and an equivalent liability. The amount of the liability is subsequently marked to market to reflect the current market value of the option written. When a security is purchased or sold through an exercise of an option, the related premium paid (or received) is added to(or deducted from) the basis of the security acquired or deducted from (or added to) the proceeds of the security sold. When an option expires (or the Series enters into a closing transaction), the Series realizes a gain or loss on the option to the extent of the premiums received or paid (or a gain or loss to the extent that the cost of the closing transaction exceeds the premium paid or received). Written and purchased options are non-income producing investments. - Forward foreign exchange contracts - The Series may enter into forward foreign exchange contracts as a hedge against either specific transactions or portfolio positions. The contract is marked-to-market daily and the change in market value is recorded by the Series as an unrealized gain or loss. When the contract is closed, the Series records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed. - Foreign currency options and futures - The Series may also purchase or sell listed or over-the-counter foreign currency options, foreign currency futures and related options on foreign currency futures as a short or long hedge against possible variations in foreign exchange rates. Such transactions may be effected with respect to hedges on non-U.S. dollar-denominated securities owned by the Series, sold by the Series but not yet delivered, or committed or anticipated to be purchased by the Series. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 110 MASTER INTERNATIONAL INDEX SERIES NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- CONTINUED December 31, 2003 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- C. Foreign currency transactions Transactions denominated in foreign currencies are recorded at the exchange rate prevailing when recognized. Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are valued at the exchange rate at the end of the period. Foreign currency transactions are the result of settling (realized) or valuing (unrealized) assets or liabilities expressed in foreign currencies into U.S. dollars. Realized and unrealized gains or losses from investments include the effects of foreign exchange rates on investments. D. Income taxes The Series is classified as a partnership for Federal income tax purposes. As such, each investor in the Series is treated as owner of its proportionate share of the net assets, income, expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses of the Series. Therefore, no Federal income tax provision is required. Under the applicable foreign tax law, a withholding tax may be imposed on interest, dividends and capital gains at various rates. It is intended that the Series' assets will be managed so an investor in the Series can satisfy the requirements of subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code. E. Security transactions and investment income Security transactions are accounted for on the date the securities are purchased or sold (the trade dates). Realized gains and losses on security transactions are determined on the identified cost basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend dates. Dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed are subsequently recorded when the Series has determined the ex-dividend date. Interest income is recognized on the accrual basis. F. Securities lending The Series may lend securities to financial institutions that provide cash or securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government as collateral, which will be maintained at all times in amount equal to at least 100% of the current market value of the loaned securities. The market value of the loaned securities is determined at the close of business of the Series and any additional required collateral is delivered to the Series on the next business day. Where the Series receives securities as collateral for the loaned securities, it collects a fee from the borrower. The Series typically receives the income on the loaned securities but does not receive the income on the collateral. Where the Series receives cash collateral, it may invest such collateral and retain the amount earned on such investment, net of any amount rebated to the borrower. Loans of securities are terminable at any time and the borrower, after notice, is required to return borrowed securities within five business days. The Series may pay reasonable finder's, lending agent, administrative and custodial fees in connection with its loans. In the event that the borrower defaults on its obligation to return borrowed securities because of insolvency or for any other reason, the Series also could suffer a loss where the value of the collateral falls below the market value of the borrowed securities, in the event of borrower default or in the event of losses on investments made with cash collateral. 2. INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT AND TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES: The Trust has entered into an Investment Advisory Agreement with Fund Asset Management, L.P. ("FAM").The general partner of FAM is Princeton Services, Inc. ("PSI"), an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of Merrill Lynch & Co., Inc. ("ML & Co."), which is the limited partner. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 111 MASTER INTERNATIONAL INDEX SERIES NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- CONTINUED December 31, 2003 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- FAM is responsible for the management of the Series' portfolio and provides the necessary personnel, facilities, equipment and certain other services necessary to the operations of the Series. For such services, the Series pays a monthly fee at an annual rate of .01% of the average daily value of the Series' net assets. FAM has entered into a contractual arrangement with the Series under which the expenses incurred by the Series will not exceed .12%. Effective January 1, 2003, the limit was increased from .08% to .12%. This arrangement expires December 31, 2004 and is renewable. For the year ended December 31, 2003, FAM earned fees of $21,203, of which $17,696 was waived. For the year ended December 31, 2003, the Series reimbursed FAM $3,886 for certain accounting services. Certain officers and/or trustees of the Trust are officers and/or directors of FAM, PSI, and/or ML & Co. 3. INVESTMENTS: Purchases and sales of investments, excluding short-term securities, for the year ended December 31, 2003 were $315,970,788 and $16,650,300, respectively.

At December 31, 2003, the aggregate cost of investments for Federal income tax purposes was $494,488,737. 4. SHORT-TERM BORROWINGS: The Series, along with certain other funds managed by FAM and its affiliates, is a party to a $500,000,000 credit agreement with Bank One, N.A. and certain other lenders. The Series may borrow under the credit agreement to fund shareholders redemptions and for other lawful purposes other than for leverage. The Series may borrow up to the maximum amount allowable under the Series' current prospectus and statement of additional information, subject to various other legal, regulatory or contractual limits. The Series pays a commitment fee of .09% per annum based on the Series' pro rata share of the unused portion of the credit agreement. Amounts borrowed under the credit agreement bear interest at a rate equal to, at each fund's election, the Federal Funds rate plus .50% or a base rate as determined by Bank One, N.A. On November 28, 2003, the credit agreement was renewed for one year at the same terms. The Series did not borrow under the credit agreement during the year ended December 31,2003. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 112 MASTER INTERNATIONAL INDEX SERIES INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT December 31, 2003 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- To the Investors and Board of Trustees of Quantitative Master Series Trust: We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the schedule of investments, of Master International Index Series, one of the portfolios constituting the Quantitative Master Series Trust (the "Trust") as of December 31, 2003, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the respective periods then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Trust's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.

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. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2003, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers; where replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. 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 Master International Index Series of the Quantitative Master Series Trust as of December 31, 2003, 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 its financial highlights for each of the respective periods then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

During this time, the money market series of the American AAdvantage Funds performed well versus their peers. During the past year, investors experienced both upward and downward market trends while hoping to avoid a fourth consecutive annual decline in the stock market (something that has not occurred since 1932). Fortunately, the up markets outpaced downward periods by a larger margin. The reality seems to be that the economic recovery has arrived. The economy had to overcome the war with Iraq, the occupation of Afghanistan, and the SARS outbreak. However, the lowest Fed Funds rate in 45 years at 1.0% improved corporate earnings growth, and was reflected in the markets. The Cash Management Class of the American AAdvantage Funds produced strong relative returns for the period. The Money Market Fund Cash Management Class returned 1.08% for the year, outperforming the Lipper Institutional Money Market Average return of 0.80%. The U.S. Government Money Market Fund Cash Management Class outpaced the Lipper Institutional U.S. Government Money Market Average with a return of 1.04% versus 0.80% for the Average. As the Fed intends to remain accommodative and "patient" with monetary policy, thereby, keeping short-term interest rates at historical lows, the money market series of the American AAdvantage Funds continue to emphasize fundamental investing on behalf of our shareholders. We believe our disciplined investment process, credit analysis, and low costs will produce value-added results over the long term. Please review the enclosed portfolio listings and detailed financial data. As always, we welcome the opportunity to serve your financial needs. Should you have any questions about the enclosed information, please do not hesitate to contact us at 800-967-9009. You may also access Fund and account information at www.aafunds.com. Thank you for your continued confidence in the American AAdvantage Funds. Sincerely, /s/ William F. Quinn William F. Quinn President American AAdvantage Funds 1 ECONOMIC OVERVIEW ================================================================================ The year began with the uncertainty of a war with Iraq, unemployment on the rise and a bounce in the stock market's average indices. After a successful campaign in Iraq, the Bush Administration shifted its focus to stimulating economic growth through tax cuts. A great deal of uncertainty surrounded monetary policy, as the world and U.S. economic recovery appeared tentative. Excess capacity hindered pricing power and productivity increases hindered the labor market. Inflation posed no threat during the year; in fact, Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan expressed concern over deflation, indicating the Fed would be diligent in monitoring the potential threat of falling prices. Indeed, with the Fed's apparent conviction to utilize all means necessary to avoid deflation and stimulate the economy, the overnight Fed Funds rate was lowered by 25 basis points to 1% at the June FOMC meeting. This is the lowest overnight level in over forty years. As the year progressed, the economy appeared to be heading down the path of an economic growth recovery. The third quarter GDP growth rate of 8.2% was the highest since 1983 and economists have been forecasting 4% GDP growth for the fourth quarter of 2003 and throughout 2004. The stock market's extraordinary returns, the continued robust housing market, and the capture of Saddam Hussein all helped improve consumer confidence. The recent drop in the dollar should make U.S. exports more appealing. The only remaining area of concern from a recovery viewpoint is jobs creation. Although the jobless rate has edged its way down to 5.7% from a high of 6.3% in May, we have yet to see strong increases in the number of new non-farm payrolls that many economists have been anticipating. Productivity has enabled companies to produce more without having to hire additional workers. The third quarter productivity pace was the fastest in 20 years. With inflation still benign, productivity increasing, and lackluster jobs creation, there is little reason to doubt Fed Chairman Greenspan's repeated assertions that monetary policy could remain accommodative for a "considerable period", or at least through the first half of 2004. 2 PERFORMANCE OVERVIEW AMERICAN AADVANTAGE MONEY MARKET FUND (R) ================================================================================ As evidence mounted that money market interest rates would head lower, the weighted-average maturity of the American AAdvantage Money Market Fund was extended close to the 60 day maximum for "AAA" rated funds. This strategy enabled the Fund to lock in higher rates. The extension became even more beneficial when the Fed lowered the Fed Funds rate 25 basis points from 1.25% to 1.00% at the June FOMC meeting. After thirteen consecutive easings by the Fed since January 2001, a positively sloped money market yield curve emerged in the second half of 2003. The market began to anticipate in July that the next move by the Fed would be to increase interest rates. That notion gained momentum after third quarter GDP growth came in at a surprising 8.2%. Since then, the economic growth recovery has remained on track, but with disappointing jobs creation. The encouraging news on productivity coupled with the disappointing news on jobs creation led us to concur with Chairman Greenspan's repeated assertions that monetary policy could remain accommodative and money market interest rates will remain at historically low levels for a "considerable period". The Fund's large position in variable rate securities will likely be maintained and the weighted-average maturity of the Fund will likely be in the 50 to 60 day range until evidence of a recovery in jobs creation emerges and the likelihood of a Fed rate hike increases. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2003, the total return of the Cash Management Class of the American AAdvantage Money Market Fund was 1.08%. The Fund outperformed the Lipper Institutional Money Market Average return of 0.80% by 28 basis points. Lipper Analytical Services ranked the Institutional Class of the Fund 96th among 279, 42nd among 184, and 14th among 83 Institutional Money Market Funds for the one-year, five-years and ten-years ended December 31, 2003, respectively.

(1) Past performance is not indicative of future performance. An investment in the American AAdvantage Money Market Fund is neither insured nor guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. Although the Fund seeks to preserve the value of an investment at $1.00 per share, it is possible to lose money by investing in this Fund. (2) Fund performance for the ten-year period represents the total returns achieved by the Institutional Class from 1/1/94 up to 8/1/94, the inception date of the PlanAhead Class, and up to 11/8/95, the inception date of the Platinum Class, and the returns of the PlanAhead and Platinum Classes since inception of these Classes. Expenses of the PlanAhead and Platinum Classes are higher than those of the Institutional Class. Therefore, total returns shown are higher than they would have been had the PlanAhead and Platinum Classes been in place since 1/1/94. (3) Fund performance for the five and ten-year periods represents the total returns achieved by the Institutional Class from 1/1/94 up to 12/1/01, the inception date of the Cash Management Class and the returns of the Cash Management Class since its inception. Expenses of the Cash Management Class are lower than those of the Institutional Class. Therefore, total returns shown are lower than they would have been had the Cash Management Class been in place since 1/1/94. 3 PERFORMANCE OVERVIEW AMERICAN AADVANTAGE MONEY MARKET FUND (R) -- Continued ================================================================================ PORTFOLIO STATISTICS AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2003

4 PERFORMANCE OVERVIEW AMERICAN AADVANTAGE U.S. GOVERNMENT MONEY MARKET FUND (SM) ================================================================================ The American AAdvantage U.S. Government Money Market Fund maintained a weighted-average maturity toward the longer end of the maximum maturity of 60 days allowed for "AAA" rated funds. This was accomplished primarily by purchasing fixed rate agencies with maturities of six months to one year. This strategy worked well during the first half of the year, especially in light of the Fed lowering the Fed Funds rate in June to 1% from 1.25%. After thirteen consecutive easings by the Fed since January 2001, a positively sloped money market yield curve emerged in the second half of 2003. The market began to anticipate in July that the next move by the Fed would be to increase interest rates. That notion gained momentum after third quarter GDP growth came in at a surprising 8.2%. Since then, the economic growth recovery has remained on track but with disappointing jobs creation. The encouraging news on productivity coupled with the disappointing news on jobs creation led us to concur with Chairman Greenspan's repeated assertions that monetary policy could remain accommodative and money market interest rates would remain at historically low levels for a "considerable period". The weighted-average maturity of the Fund will likely remain in the 50 to 60 day range until evidence of a recovery in jobs creation emerges and the likelihood of a Fed rate hike increases. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2003, the total return of the Cash Management Class of the American AAdvantage U.S. Government Money Market Fund was 1.04%. The Fund outperformed the Lipper Institutional U.S. Government Money Market Average return of 0.80% by 24 basis points. Lipper Analytical Services ranked the Cash Management Class of the Fund 15th among 139, 11th among 96, and 14th among 49 Institutional U.S. Government Money Market Funds for the one-year, five-years and ten-years ended December 31, 2003, respectively.

As it became apparent the Fed would lower interest rates at least 25 basis points at the June FOMC meeting, the Fund locked in higher yields by purchasing commercial paper. During the second half of the year, the focus returned to the variable rate demand note market, as that proved to be the most attractive investment alternative. If interest rates remain low, as anticipated, the Fund will look for opportunities in the fixed rate market. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2003, the total return of the PlanAhead Class of the American AAdvantage Municipal Money Market Fund was 0.32% as compared to the Lipper Tax-Exempt Money Market Average return of 0.45%.

See accompanying notes -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 11 AMERICAN AADVANTAGE FUNDS NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS December 31, 2003 ================================================================================ 1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES American AAdvantage Funds (the "Trust") is organized as a Massachusetts business trust and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the "Act"), as amended, as a no-load, open-end management investment company with separate series. The following series are included in this report: American AAdvantage Money Market, American AAdvantage U.S. Government Money Market and American AAdvantage Municipal Money Market Funds (each a "Fund" and collectively, the "Funds"). Each Fund has multiple classes of shares. Differences between the classes include the services offered to and the expenses borne by each class and certain voting rights. Investment income, net capital gains (losses)and all expenses incurred by the Funds are allocated based on relative net assets of each class, except for service fees and certain other fees and expenses related solely to one class of shares. Effective October 9, 2003, the Institutional Class of the Municipal Money Market Fund was no longer offered. Each Fund invests all of its investable assets in the corresponding portfolio of the AMR Investment Services Trust, an open-end diversified management investment company, as follows:
AMERICAN AADVANTAGE: --> INVESTS ASSETS IN --> AMR INVESTMENT SERVICES TRUST: -------------------- ----------------- ------------------------------ Money Market Fund Money Market Portfolio U.S. Government Money Market Fund U.S. Government Money Market Portfolio Municipal Money Market Fund Municipal Money Market Portfolio
Each AMR Investment Services Trust Portfolio has the same investment objectives as its corresponding Fund. The value of such investment reflects each Fund's proportionate interest in the net assets of the corresponding portfolio (9.06%, 23.68% and 15.91% at December 31, 2003 of the AMR Investment Services Trust Money Market, U.S. Government Money Market and Municipal Money Market Portfolios, respectively) (each a "Portfolio" and collectively the "Portfolios"). The financial statements of the Portfolios are included elsewhere in this report and should be read in conjunction with the Funds' financial statements. AMR Investment Services, Inc. (the "Manager") is a wholly-owned subsidiary of AMR Corporation, the parent company of American Airlines, Inc. ("American"), and was organized in 1986 to provide business management, advisory, administrative and asset management consulting services to the Trust and other investors. The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies followed by the Funds. Valuation of Investments The Funds record their investment in the Portfolios at fair value. Valuation of securities by the Portfolios is discussed in Note 1 of the Portfolios' Notes to Financial Statements which are included elsewhere in this report. Investment Income and Dividends to Shareholders Each Fund records its share of net investment income (loss) and realized gain (loss) in the Portfolio each day. All net investment income (loss) and realized gain (loss) of each Portfolio are allocated pro rata among the corresponding Fund and other investors in each Portfolio at the time of such determination. The Funds generally declare dividends daily from net investment income and net short-term capital gain, if any, payable monthly. Dividends are determined in accordance with income tax principles which may treat certain transactions differently than accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 12 AMERICAN AADVANTAGE FUNDS NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED December 31, 2003 ================================================================================ Federal Income and Excise Taxes It is the policy of each of the Funds to comply with the requirements of subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all net investment income as well as any net realized capital gains on the sale of investments. Therefore, no federal income or excise tax provision is required. All dividends paid by the Municipal Money Market Fund were "exempt interest dividends" and therefore are 100% free of any regular federal income tax. Approximately 23% of interest earned was derived from investments in certain private activity bonds for purposes of the federal alternative minimum tax calculation. Allocation of Income, Expenses, Gains and Losses Income, expenses (other than those attributable to a specific class), gains and losses are allocated daily to each class of shares based upon the relative proportion of net assets represented by such class. Operating expenses directly attributable to a specific class are charged against the operations of that class. Valuation of Shares The price per share is calculated separately for each class of each Fund on each day on which shares are offered for sale and orders accepted or upon receipt of a redemption request. With respect to a class of a Fund, price per share is computed by dividing the value of the class' pro rata allocation of the Fund's investments and other assets, less liabilities, by the number of class shares outstanding. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results may differ from those estimated. 2. TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES Administrative Services Agreement The Manager and the Trust entered into an Administrative Services Agreement which obligates the Manager to provide or oversee administrative and management services to the Funds. As compensation for performing the duties required under the Administrative Services Agreement, the Manager receives an annualized fee of 0.10% of the average daily net assets of each of the Institutional, PlanAhead and Platinum Classes of the Funds. The Trust has adopted an Administrative Services Plan with respect to the Platinum Class of the Funds. As compensation for providing administrative services, the Manager receives an annualized fee of 0.55% of the average daily net assets of the Platinum Class of each Fund. A separate Administrative Services Plan has been adopted for the Cash Management Class of the Funds. As compensation for providing administrative services, the Manager receives an annualized fee of 0.07% of the average daily net assets of the Cash Management Class of each Fund. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 13 AMERICAN AADVANTAGE FUNDS NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED December 31, 2003 ================================================================================ Distribution Plan The Trust, except for the Platinum Class of the Funds, has adopted a "defensive" Distribution Plan (the "Plan") in accordance with Rule 12b-1 under the Act, pursuant to which no fees may be charged to the Funds for distribution purposes. However, the Plan authorizes the fees received by the Manager to be used for distribution purposes. Under this plan, the Trust does not intend to compensate the Manager or any other party, either directly or indirectly, for the distribution of Trust shares. A separate Distribution Plan (the "Distribution Plan") has been adopted pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Act for the Platinum Class of the Funds. Under the Distribution Plan, as compensation for distribution assistance, the Manager receives an annualized fee of 0.25% of the average daily net assets of each class. The fee will be payable without regard to whether the amount of the fee is more or less than the actual expenses incurred in a particular month by the Manager for distribution assistance. Service Agreement The Manager and the Trust entered into a Service Agreement which obligates the Manager to oversee additional shareholder servicing of the PlanAhead Class. As compensation for performing the duties required under the Service Agreement, the Manager receives 0.25% based on the daily net assets of the Plan-Ahead Class. Reimbursement and Waiver of Expenses Effective March 1, 2003 the Manager contractually agreed to reimburse each Cash Management Class Fund for other expenses through December 31, 2003 to the extent that total annual fund operating expenses exceed 0.15% and 0.19% for the Money Market and U.S. Government Money Market Funds, respectively. Prior to March 1, 2003, the Manager contractually agreed to reimburse the Cash Management Class of the Money Market Fund for other expenses to the extent that total annual fund operating expenses exceeded 0.19%. The Manager contractually agreed to reimburse the Platinum Class of each Fund for other expenses through December 31, 2003 to the extent that total annual fund operating expenses exceed 0.99%. In addition, effective June 25, 2003, the Manager agreed to voluntarily waive additional fees to the extent necessary to preserve a certain minimum level of returns for Platinum Class Fund shareholders. During the year ended December 31, 2003, the Manager waived or reimbursed expenses as follows:
FUND AMOUNT ---- -------- Money Market Fund Cash Management Class ............................................ $ 54,801 Platinum Class ................................................... 135,366 U.S. Government Money Market Fund Cash Management Class ............................................ 37,812 PlanAhead Class .................................................. 42,856 Platinum Class ................................................... 28,982 Municipal Money Market Fund PlanAhead Class .................................................. 5,799 Platinum Class ................................................... 28,374
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 14 AMERICAN AADVANTAGE FUNDS NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED December 31, 2003 ================================================================================ Expense Reimbursement Plan Effective July 10, 2003, the Funds adopted an Expense Reimbursement Plan whereby the Manager may seek repayment of fees waived or expenses reimbursed for a period of up to three years. However, reimbursement will occur only if the Class' average net assets have grown or expenses have declined sufficiently to allow reimbursement without causing its expense ratio to exceed the previously agreed upon contractual expense limit. The following waived fees or reimbursed expenses are subject to potential recovery:
FUND AMOUNT EXPIRING IN ---- ------ ----------- Money Market Fund .................................. $83,552 2006 U.S. Government Money Market Fund .................. 77,375 2006 Municipal Money Market Fund ...................... 18,920 2006
Other Certain officers or trustees of the Trust are also current or former officers or employees of the Manager or American. The Trust makes no direct payments to its officers. Unaffiliated trustees and their spouses are provided free unlimited air transportation on American. In addition, the Trust compensates each trustee with payments in an amount equal to the trustee's income tax on the value of this free airline travel. Retired trustees and their spouses receive American Airlines flight benefits, plus reimbursement of any tax liability relating to such benefits, up to a maximum annual value of $40,000. One trustee, as a retiree of American, already receives flight benefits. This trustee receives an annual retainer of $40,000 plus $1,250 for each Board meeting attended. For the year ended December 31, 2003, the cost of air transportation was not material to any of the Funds. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 15 AMERICAN AADVANTAGE FUNDS NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED December 31, 2003 ================================================================================ 3.

These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Portfolios' 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 auditing standards generally accepted in the 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. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements and financial highlights. Our procedures included confirmation of investments owned as of December 31, 2003, by correspondence with the custodian. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. 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 each of the Portfolios of the AMR Investment Services Trust at December 31, 2003, the results of their operations, the changes in their net assets, and the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated therein, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. /s/ Ernst & Young LLP Chicago, Illinois February 13, 2004 24 AMR INVESTMENT SERVICES MONEY MARKET PORTFOLIO SCHEDULE OF INVESTMENTS December 31, 2003 ================================================================================

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 37 AMR INVESTMENT SERVICES TRUST NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS December 31, 2003 ================================================================================ 1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AMR Investment Services Trust (the "Trust") is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as a no load, open-end management investment company which was organized as a trust under the laws of the State of New York pursuant to a Declaration of Trust dated as of June 27, 1995 and amended on August 11, 1995. Beneficial interests in the Trust are divided into separate series, each having distinct investment objectives and policies. These financial statements relate to the AMR Investment Services Money Market Portfolio, AMR Investment Services U.S. Government Money Market Portfolio and AMR Investment Services Municipal Money Market Portfolio (each a "Portfolio" and collectively the "Portfolios"). The assets of each Portfolio belong only to that Portfolio, and the liabilities of each Portfolio are borne solely by that Portfolio and no other. AMR Investment Services, Inc. (the "Manager") is a wholly-owned subsidiary of AMR Corporation, the parent company of American Airlines, Inc. ("American"), and was organized in 1986 to provide business management, advisory, administrative and asset management consulting services. The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies followed by the Portfolios. Security Valuation Securities of the Portfolios are valued at fair value, which approximates amortized cost. In the event that a deviation of 1/2 of 1% or more exists between the $1.00 per share price of the Portfolios, calculated at amortized cost, and the price per share calculated by reference to market quotations, or if there is any other deviation which the Board believes would result in a material dilution to shareholders or purchasers, the Board will promptly consider the appropriate action which should be initiated. Security Transactions and Investment Income Security transactions are recorded on the trade date of the security purchase or sale. Interest income is earned from settlement date, recorded on the accrual basis, and adjusted, if necessary, for amortization of premiums or accretion of discounts on investment grade short-term securities and zero coupon instruments. For financial and tax reporting purposes, realized gains and losses are determined on the basis of specific lot identification. Federal Income and Excise Taxes The Portfolios will be treated as partnerships for federal income tax purposes. As such, each investor in a Portfolio will be taxed on its share of the Portfolio's ordinary income and capital gains. It is intended that each Portfolio's assets will be managed in such a way that an investor in the Portfolio will be able to satisfy the requirements of subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code. Repurchase Agreements Under the terms of a repurchase agreement, securities are acquired by a Portfolio from a securities dealer or a bank which are subject to resale at a later date. Repurchase agreements are fully collateralized by U.S. Treasury or Government agency securities. All collateral is held at the Portfolio's custodian bank, State Street Bank and Trust Company, or at subcustodian banks. The collateral is monitored daily by each Portfolio so that the collateral's market value exceeds the carrying value of the repurchase agreement. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 38 AMR INVESTMENT SERVICES TRUST NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED December 31, 2003 ================================================================================ Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results may differ from those estimated. 2. TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES Management Agreement The Trust and the Manager are parties to a Management Agreement which obligates the Manager to provide or oversee the provision of all administrative, investment advisory and portfolio management services. The Manager serves as the sole investment adviser to each of the Portfolios. As compensation for performing the duties required under the Management Agreement, the Manager receives from the Portfolios 0.10% of the average daily net assets of each of the Portfolios. Other Certain officers or trustees of the Trust are also current or former officers or employees of the Manager or American. The Trust makes no direct payments to its officers. Unaffiliated trustees and their spouses are provided free unlimited air transportation on American. In addition, the Trust compensates each trustee with payments in an amount equal to the trustee's income tax on the value of this free airline travel. Retired trustees and their spouses receive American Airlines flight benefits, plus reimbursement of any tax liability relating to such benefits, up to a maximum annual value of $40,000. One trustee, as a retiree of American, already receives flight benefits. This trustee receives an annual retainer of $40,000 plus $1,250 for each Board meeting attended. For the year ended December 31, 2003, the cost of air transportation was not material to any of the Funds. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 39 TRUSTEES AND OFFICERS OF THE TRUST AND THE AMR INVESTMENT SERVICES TRUST (Unaudited) ================================================================================ The Trustees and officers of the Trust and AMR Trust are listed below, together with their principal occupations during the past five years.
