QUINN] FELLOW SHAREHOLDERS: Enclosed please find the Annual Report for the American AAdvantage Funds for the twelve months ended December 31, 2004. During this time, the money market series of the American AAdvantage Funds performed well versus their peers. The year began with the lowest Fed Funds rate in 45 years at 1.0%. The U.S. economy in 2004 can best be characterized as experiencing modest inflation with a benign outlook. As a result, the Federal Reserve Board felt comfortable increasing the short-term interest rate by 125 basis points to 2.25%. Even at this level, the "real" interest rate is below historical levels. The Cash Management Class of the American AAdvantage Funds produced strong relative returns for the period. The Money Market Fund-Cash Management Class returned 1.30% for the year, outperforming the Lipper Institutional Money Market Average return of 1.00%. The U.S. Government Money Market - Management Class outpaced the Lipper Institutional U.S. Government Money Market Average with a return of 1.22% versus 0.99% for the Average. Despite rising rates, the Money Market Fund-Cash Management Class continued to surpass its Lipper peer group over all time periods. Looking forward, record trade deficits caused by a combination of the lower value of the dollar and higher crude prices will have to be watched closely. Although we expect continued increases in the Fed Funds rate, continued unfettered trade deficit increases could cause the Fed to tighten more aggressively. Thus, we will continue to actively manage the duration and quality of the money market portfolios as we evaluate economic growth, inflation, and the direction of interest rates. 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 an improving economic environment. However, while growth indicators were robust, the labor market remained muted until the March employment report was released in April. In March, U.S. employers created 353,000 new non-farm jobs, thereby removing the critical missing link between a transitory cyclical rebound and the onset of a period of prolonged economic expansion. The strong employment data caused a sharp sell-off in the fixed income market in anticipation that the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) would soon begin to raise the overnight Fed Funds rate. The first rate hike of 25 basis points occurred at the June 30th FOMC meeting, bringing the overnight Fed Funds target to 1.25%. The FOMC continued its tightening policy of 25 basis points at each of the remaining Fed meetings, bringing the Fed Funds target to 2.25% by the end of 2004. Toward the end of the year, the U.S. economy gathered momentum, buoyed by a decisive result of the November Presidential election. Monthly non-farm payroll growth averaged over 200K, crude prices fell from their record highs, broad equity indexes rallied, and most retailers reported a strong holiday shopping season. Going forward, as long as productivity keeps pace with wage growth in a gradually tightening labor market, it appears the Fed has no incentive of abandoning its "measured" (25 basis point rate increases) policy adjustment stance absent a sharp rise in commodity prices or a sharp fall in the U.S. dollar. 2 PERFORMANCE OVERVIEW AMERICAN AADVANTAGE MONEY MARKET FUND(R) ================================================================================ As evidence mounted that money market interest rates would head higher in the second half of the year, the weighted-average maturity of the American AAdvantage Money Market Fund was allowed to roll down from above 50 days to about 30 days. This strategy enabled the Fund to take advantage of higher overnight rates. The rolldown became even more beneficial when the Fed raised the overnight rate 25 basis points to 1.25% from 1.00% at the JuneFOMC meeting. A shorter average maturity was maintained as the market began to anticipate further interest rate increases by the Fed. A large position in variable rate securities will likely be maintained in conjunction with a concentration in overnight investments as the weighted-average maturity of the Fund will likely remain in the 30 to 40 day range until evidence emerges that the Fed has completed its current tightening cycle. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2004, the total return of the Cash Management Class of the American AAdvantage Money Market Fund was 1.30%. The Fund outperformed the Lipper Institutional Money Market Average return of 1.00% by 30 basis points. Lipper Analytical Services ranked the Cash Management Class of the Fund 22nd among 304 and 37th among 260 Institutional Money Market Funds for the one-year and three-years ended December 31, 2004, 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. 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 ten-year period represents the total returns achieved by the Institutional Class from 1/1/95 up to 11/8/95, the inception date of the Platinum Class, and the returns of the Platinum Class since inception of the Class. Expenses of the Platinum Class are higher than those of the Institutional Class. Therefore, total returns shown are higher than they would have been had the Platinum Class been in place since 1/1/95. 3 Fund performance for the five and ten-year periods represents the total returns achieved by the Institutional Class from 1/1/95 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 1/1/95. 3 PERFORMANCE OVERVIEW AMERICAN AADVANTAGE MONEY MARKET FUND(R) -- CONTINUED ================================================================================ PORTFOLIO STATISTICS AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2004

FUND EXPENSE EXAMPLE As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, administrative service fees, and other Fund expenses. The examples below are intended to help you understand the ongoing cost (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period in each Class and held for the entire period from July 1, 2004 through December 31, 2004. ACTUAL EXPENSES The "Actual" lines of the table provide information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. Shareholders of the PlanAhead Class that invest in the Fund through an IRA may be subject to a custodial IRA fee of $12 that is typically deducted each December. If your account was subject to a custodial IRA fee during the period, your costs would have been $12 higher. HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES The "Hypothetical" lines of the table provide information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund's actual expense ratio and an assumed 5% per year rate of return before expenses (not the Fund's actual return). You may compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund with other funds by contrasting this 5% hypothetical example and the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. Shareholders of the PlanAhead Class that invest in the Fund through an IRA may be 4 PERFORMANCE OVERVIEW AMERICAN AADVANTAGE MONEY MARKET FUND(R) -- CONTINUED ================================================================================ subject to a custodial IRA fee of $12 that is typically deducted each December. If your account was subject to a custodial IRA fee during the period, your costs would have been $12 higher. You should also be aware that the expenses shown in the table highlight only your ongoing costs and do not reflect any transaction costs charged by the Fund. Similarly, the expense examples for other funds do not reflect any transaction costs charged by those funds, such as sales charges (loads), redemption fees or exchange fees. Therefore, the "Hypothetical" lines of the table are useful in comparing ongoing costs only and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. If you were subject to any transaction costs during the period, your costs would have been higher.

This strategy was accomplished primarily by purchasing fixed rate agencies with maturities of six to nine months. In April, the fixed income market began to sell off sharply after the release of the strong March employment data and in anticipation of a Fed rate hike. In response, the weighted-average maturity of the Fund was shortened by investing the proceeds of maturing securities in overnight repurchase agreements or short dated agencies. This strategy proved to be a good move as the FOMC implemented its first rate hike of 25 basis points at the June 30th meeting. This increase took the overnight Fed Funds target to 1.25%. As the FOMC continued its monetary tightening policy of 25 basis points at each of the remaining Fed meetings, the Fund continued to buy variable rate and short dated fixed rate agencies. The year ended with the Fed Funds target at 2.25%, 125 basis points higher than at the start of 2004. In response to monetary policy, the weighted-average maturity of the Fund was shortened to around 15 days by year-end. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2004, the total return of the Cash Management Class of the American AAdvantage U.S. Government Money Market Fund was 1.22%. The Fund outperformed the Lipper Institutional U.S. Government Money Market Average return of 0.99% by 23 basis points. Lipper Analytical Services ranked the Cash Management Class of the Fund 15th among 142, 11th among 104, and 13th among 56 Institutional U.S. Government Money Market Funds for the one-year, five-years and ten-years ended December 31, 2004, respectively.

As it became apparent the Fed would raise interest rates 25 basis points at the June FOMC meeting, the Fund maintained a high concentration in VRDNs and the investment manager allowed the average maturity to roll down. The investment manager will continue to focus purchases on the VRDN market and buy selective fixed rate instruments when opportunites surface in this rising interest rate environment. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2004, the total return of the PlanAhead Class of the American AAdvantage Municipal Money Market Fund was 0.31% as compared to the Lipper Tax-Exempt Money Market Average return of 0.56%.

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 standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for purposes of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Funds' internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements and financial highlights, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and 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, 2004, the results of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated therein, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. /s/ Ernst & Young LLP Chicago, Illinois February 18, 2005 10 AMERICAN AADVANTAGE FUNDS STATEMENTS OF ASSETS AND LIABILITIES December 31, 2004 ================================================================================

See accompanying notes -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 15 AMERICAN AADVANTAGE FUNDS NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS December 31, 2004 ================================================================================ 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 designed to meet the needs of different groups of investors. Differences between the classes include the services offered to and the expenses borne by each class. 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 (11.95%, 16.29% and 14.67% at December 31, 2004 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. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 16 AMERICAN AADVANTAGE FUNDS NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED December 31, 2004 ================================================================================ Dividends to shareholders are determined in accordance with federal income tax principles that may treat certain transactions differently than U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. 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 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 22% 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 U.S. generally accepted accounting principles 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. Other Under the Trust's organizational documents, its officers and directors are indemnified against certain liability arising out of the performance of their duties to the Trust. In the normal course of business, the Trust enters into contracts that provide indemnification to the other party or parties against potential costs or liabilities. The Trust's maximum exposure under these arrangements is dependent on claims that may be made in the future and, therefore, cannot be estimated. The Trust has had no prior claims or losses pursuant to any such agreement. 2. 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 Funds. As compensation for performing the duties required under the Administrative Services Agreement, the Manager receives an -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 17 AMERICAN AADVANTAGE FUNDS NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED December 31, 2004 ================================================================================ 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. 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 PlanAhead Class. Reimbursement and Waiver of Expenses The Manager contractually agreed to reimburse each Cash Management Class Fund for other expenses through December 31, 2004 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. The Manager contractually agreed to reimburse the Platinum Class of each Fund for other expenses through December 31, 2004 to the extent that total annual fund operating expenses exceed 0.99%. In addition, the Manager agreed to voluntarily waive additional fees to the extent necessary to preserve a certain -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 18 AMERICAN AADVANTAGE FUNDS NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED December 31, 2004 ================================================================================ minimum level of returns for PlanAhead and Platinum Class Fund shareholders. During the year ended December 31, 2004, the Manager waived or reimbursed expenses as follows:
FUND AMOUNT ---- -------- Money Market Fund Cash Management Class ........................................ $103,320 Platinum Class ............................................... 36,932 U.S. Government Money Market Fund Cash Management Class ........................................ 25,824 PlanAhead Class .............................................. 1,317 Platinum Class ............................................... 11,270 Municipal Money Market Fund PlanAhead Class .............................................. 3,180 Platinum Class ............................................... 24,416
Expense Reimbursement Plan The Funds have 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 expiring in:

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. 3. SUBSEQUENT EVENT Subsequent to December 31, 2004, AMR Investment Services, Inc. will become American Beacon Advisors, Inc. and the American AAdvantage Funds will be known as the American Beacon Funds. The name change becomes effective March 1, 2005. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 19 AMERICAN AADVANTAGE FUNDS NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED December 31, 2004 ================================================================================ 4.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 27 REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM Shareholders and Board of Trustees AMR Investment Services Money Market Portfolio AMR Investment Services U.S. Government Money Market Portfolio AMR Investment Services Municipal Money Market Portfolio We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities of the AMR Investment Services Money Market Portfolio, the AMR Investment Services U.S. Government Money Market Portfolio, and the AMR Investment Services Municipal Money Market Portfolio (collectively, "the Portfolios") (separate portfolios comprising the AMR Investment Services Trust), including the schedules of investments, as of December 31, 2004, and the related statements 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 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 standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for purposes of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Portfolios' internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements and financial highlights, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2004, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers or by other appropriate auditing procedures where replies from brokers were not received. 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, 2004, the results of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. /s/ Ernest & Young LLP Chicago, Illinois February 18, 2005 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 28 AMR INVESTMENT SERVICES MONEY MARKET PORTFOLIO SCHEDULE OF INVESTMENTS December 31, 2004 ================================================================================

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 39 AMR INVESTMENT SERVICES TRUST NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS December 31, 2004 ================================================================================ 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 that was organized as a trust under the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts pursuant to a Declaration of Trust dated as of November 1, 2004. Prior to November 1, 2004, the Trust was organized as a trust under the laws of the State of New York. 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 that the Trust's Board of Trustees (the "Board") believes would result in a material dilution to shareholders or purchasers, the Board will promptly consider the appropriate action that 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 that are subject to resale at a later date. Repurchase agreements are fully collateralized by U.S. Treasury or U.S. Government agency securities. All collateral is held at the custodian bank, State Street Bank and Trust Company, or at subcustodian banks. The collateral is monitored daily by the Manager Portfolio so that the collateral's market value exceeds the carrying value of the repurchase agreement plus accrued interest. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 40 AMR INVESTMENT SERVICES TRUST NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED December 31, 2004 ================================================================================ Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles 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. Other Under the Trust's organizational documents, its officers and directors are indemnified against certain liability arising out of the performance of their duties to the Trust. In the normal course of business, the Trust enters into contracts that provide indemnification to the other party or parties against potential costs or liabilities. The Trust's maximum exposure under these arrangements is dependent on claims that may be made in the future and, therefore, cannot be estimated. The Trust has had no prior claims or losses pursuant to any such agreement. 2. TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES Management Agreement The Trust and the Manager are parties to a Management Agreement that 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. Interfund Lending Program Pursuant to an exemptive order by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Portfolios, along with other registered investment companies having management contracts with the Manager, may participate in an interfund lending program. This program provides an alternative credit facility allowing the Portfolios to lend money to other participating series managed by the Manager. For the year ended December 31, 2004, the Money Market Portfolio earned $1,070 under the credit facility. This amount is included in interest income on the financial statements. 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. 3. SUBSEQUENT EVENT Subsequent to December 31, 2004, the AMR Investment Services Money Market Portfolios will become the American Beacon Master Money Market Portfolios. The name change becomes effective March 1, 2005. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 41 SPECIAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS (Unaudited) ================================================================================ A special meeting of shareholders of the American AAdvantage Funds (the "Trust") was held on August 11, 2004. The meeting related to each series of the Trust (the "Funds"). The purpose of the meeting was to consider proposals regarding: (i) re-election of the five current Trustees and the election of three additional Trustees; (ii) changes to certain fundamental investment policies of the Funds; and (iii) the adoption of an amendment to the Declaration of Trust of the Trust to permit the Trustees to amend the Declaration of Trust in the future without shareholder approval under certain circumstances. Certain of the Funds ("Feeder Funds") currently operate under a "master-feeder" structure, pursuant to which a Feeder Fund seeks its investment objective by investing all of its investable assets in a corresponding portfolio (each a "Portfolio") of the AMR Investment Services Trust ("AMR Trust") that has an identical investment objective to the Feeder Fund. Interestholders of the AMR Trust, principally the Feeder Funds, held a separate meeting to elect Trustees and to vote on proposed changes to certain fundamental investment policies of the Portfolios of the corresponding Feeder Funds. In addition, the interestholders voted on whether to approve a Conversion Agreement pursuant to which the AMR Trust would convert from a New York common trust to a Massachusetts business trust. Shareholders of each Feeder Fund were asked to provide voting instructions to the AMR Trust meeting. Each Feeder Fund cast its votes at the AMR Trust meeting in the same proportion as the votes cast by the Feeder Fund's shareholders. Proposals 1, 3, 4, and 6 were Trust-level matters and therefore required a majority of the shareholders of the Trust to vote to achieve a quorum. Proposals 2 and 5 were Fund-level matters and therefore required a majority of the shareholders of a Fund to vote to achieve a quorum for that Fund. A quorum of the Trust was present for Proposals 1 and 4, and each proposal was approved by shareholders. Except for the Money Market and Municipal Money Market Funds, a quorum of each Fund was present for Proposals 2 and 5, and each proposal was approved by shareholders. A quorum of the Trust was present for Proposals 3 and 6, but there were not enough votes in favor of either proposal for shareholder approval. Proposals 2 and 5 for the Money Market and Municipal Money Market Funds and Proposals 3 and 6 for the Trust were adjourned to a second special meeting of shareholders on August 24, 2004. A quorum was still not present for the Money Market and Municipal Money Market Funds with respect to Proposals 2 and 5 at the August 24th meeting, so those matters were adjourned to a third special meeting of shareholders on September 17, 2004. A quorum of the Trust was present for Proposals 3 and 6, but the votes were not recorded and the Trust adjourned these matters to the September 17th meeting to coincide with the other Fund-level matters. At the September 17th meeting, a quorum was present for the Money Market and Municipal Money Market Funds, and Proposals 2 and 5 were approved by shareholders. In addition, a quorum of the Trust was present for Proposals 3 and 6, and each proposal was approved by shareholders. The final voting results for each Proposal are presented on the following page. The vote tallies for Proposals 1, 3, 4, and 6 include votes cast by shareholders of Funds not contained in this annual report. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 42 SPECIAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS (Unaudited) - (Continued) ================================================================================ (1) Elected the following Trustees to the Trust's Board of Trustees: W.

Quinn, President American AAdvantage Funds 1 (AMERICAN EAGLE LOGO) 2 DOMESTIC ECONOMIC OVERVIEW -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The beginning of 2004 brought a significant rise in equities driven by better than expected earnings. The Russell 2000 Index posted a total return of 6.26% and the S&P 500 Index posted a total return of 1.69% for the first quarter of 2004. The second quarter of 2004 showed flat to positive returns for the domestic equity market influenced mainly by indecisive investors. This behavior stemmed from continued political tension in the U.S., violence in Iraq, record high oil prices, and improving economic data. The flow of economic news continually pointed towards a strengthening economy. However, the stock market still faced a number of uncertain challenges, including the geopolitical situation, record high oil prices, U.S. election build up, and a shifting Fed policy. The equity markets generally sank in July and August, weighted by second-quarter earnings releases that failed to offer enough exuberance regarding the second half of the year, a stunningly weak July jobs report and a sharp rise in crude oil prices. The fourth quarter, however, proved to be the break out that investors were looking for in the U.S. equity markets as negative October news segued into positive November and December news. As a result of lower oil prices, unwinding of the election uncertainty, reasonably good economic and earnings news, and the beginning of the seasonally strong year-end period, the market experienced a positive post-election bounce. As expected, the Federal Reserve continued to raise the Federal Funds rate. During 2004, the Fed more than doubled the Federal Funds rate from 1% to its current rate of 2.25%. Overall, favorable liquidity conditions, stimulative fiscal policy, and rising earnings expectations have been responsible for the equity bull market that began in October 2002. 2004 ended with an economy that is beginning to slow, a deceleration in earnings growth, the Fed continuing to move rates higher, anticipation of legislative progress on many fronts in Washington and continuing concerns about the structural problems of debt and deficits as reflected by a significant decline in the U.S. dollar. The recent increase in equity prices to new cyclical highs has led to questions about how much upside potential exists. Valuation levels, at least on an absolute basis, are somewhat stretched, although the profit environment is still strong enough to support the market. Equity prices could have fallen as a result of the Fed's recent rate hike, but clearly have been benefiting from recent declines in bond yields as well as from the declining dollar.

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. All ten sectors of the S&P 500 Index (the "Index") had positive returns for 2004. Not surprisingly, the Energy sector, up 31.3%, was the top performer this year due to surging oil prices, which fueled investor optimism. The second best performing sector for 2004 was Utilities, which was up 24.5%. Health Care, up 1.9%, was the weakest performing sector for 2004 as threats of competition from drug imports and concerns about declining new product pipelines punished some of the larger companies within this sector. Information Technology, up 2.6%, was not much better than the Health Care sector, having been the worst-performing sector of the Index during the third quarter of 2004. In general, many of the more speculative companies in this sector fell due to lackluster spending on technology by corporate America. The top contributing stocks to the Index's return for the twelve-month period ended December 31, 2004 were Exxon Mobil (up 28.0%), General Electric (up 20.7%) and Johnson & Johnson (up 25.2%). The largest detractors for the year were Pfizer (down 22.3%), Intel (down 26.6%) and Cisco Systems (down 20.3%). As of December 31, 2004, the Fund's largest sector weightings were Financials (20.6% of assets), Information Technology (16.0% of assets), and Health Care (12.7% of assets), consistent with the top sector weightings in the Index. The investment manager continues to utilize a replication strategy, owning all 500 names in the S&P 500 Index in approximately the same weightings as the Index. Therefore, the Fund is expected to continue to meet its objective of closely tracking, before expenses, the return of its benchmark, the S&P 500 Index. TOP TEN HOLDINGS

The examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period in each Class and held for the entire period from July 1, 2004 through December 31, 2004. ACTUAL EXPENSES The "Actual" lines of the table provide information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. Shareholders of the Institutional and PlanAhead Classes that invest in the Fund through an IRA may be subject to a custodial IRA fee of $12 that is typically deducted each December. If your account was subject to a custodial IRA fee during the period, your costs would have been $12 higher. HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES The "Hypothetical" lines of the table provide information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund's actual expense ratio and an assumed 5% per year rate of return before expenses (not the Fund's actual return). You may compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund with other funds by contrasting this 5% hypothetical example and the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. Shareholders of the Institutional and PlanAhead Classes Classes that invest in the Fund through an IRA may be subject to a custodial IRA fee of $12 that is typically deducted each December. If your account was subject to a custodial IRA fee during the period, your costs would have been $12 higher. You should also be aware that the expenses shown in the table highlight only your ongoing costs and do not reflect any transaction costs charged by the Fund. Similarly, the expense examples for other funds do not reflect any transaction costs charged by those funds, such as sales charges (loads), redemption fees or exchange fees. Therefore, the "Hypothetical" lines of the table are useful in comparing ongoing costs only and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. If you were subject to any transaction costs during the period, your costs would have been higher.

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. For the year, 11 of 12 Russell 2000 sectors posted positive returns. The top-performing sector was Other Energy, returning an impressive 50.5%, followed by Other (which includes many conglomerates) and Integrated Oils, up 44.8% and 38.1%, respectively. The worst performing sector for the year was Technology, with a negative return of 1.9%, followed by Consumer Staples, up 13.5%, and Health Care, up 15.9%. The Index's best individual performers for 2004 were W.R. Grace & Co, up 429.6%, NitroMed Inc., up 339.8%, and Coldwater Creek Inc., up 321.0%. The worst performing stocks for the year were Genta Inc., down 83.1%, FLYi Inc., down 82.0%, and Verso Technologies Inc., down 77.7%.

Fears of terrorist activity resurfaced as the markets reacted sharply to the attack in Madrid. The "flight to quality" took over and top performers featured high-quality and value issues, as market uncertainty caused investors to change favor from the low-quality, low-price, and high beta securities that performed well in the fourth quarter of 2003. The second quarter of 2004 showed positive yet unimpressive returns for the global equity markets influenced mainly by indecisive global investors. This behavior stemmed from continued political tension in the U.S., violence in Iraq, record high oil prices, and improving economic data over the quarter. The shift in investor favor from low-quality, low-price, and high beta securities to higher-quality, higher-cap and lower-beta stocks that began at the end of the first quarter grew stronger into the second quarter of 2004. The third quarter proved to be a slightly negative period as the MSCI EAFE returned -0.28% and the MSCI World returned -1.00%. The war in Iraq and the risks associated with the geopolitical situation did nothing to ease investors' fears, especially as oil prices continued to climb. However, oil prices began to recede in the fourth quarter, and international market indices broke out of their slump with a vengeance. The MSCI EAFE returned 15.32% and the MSCI World returned 11.95% for the fourth quarter alone. The European markets moved upward over the year, with the Dow Jones STOXX 50 closing at 2,774.77, up 114.40 points or 4.30% in euros, and the FTSE 100 closing at 4,814.30, up 337.40 points or 7.54% in UK sterling. In the Asian markets, the Hang Seng Index closed up 1,654.20 points at 14,230.14 or 13.15% in Hong Kong dollars and the Nikkei 225 Index closed up 812.12 points at 11,488.76 or 7.61% in yen. The European Central Bank (ECB) decided to maintain exchange rates at 2.00% throughout the year, the lowest level since 1999. The U.S. dollar is set for the longest annual losing streak since 1987, as it is being hampered by record current account and fiscal deficits, less appetite among foreign investors for U.S. assets, and comments from Federal Reserve and Treasury officials suggesting they favor a weaker dollar. The dollar stands at a near record low against the euro, down over 15% from its high for the year. At the end of the year, the dollar traded at a record high against the yen, but both currencies are sliding in line together against the euro. Although the regional European economy is lagging, companies are well placed to benefit from improving external demand. Earnings momentum is building, but the strong euro will trim unhedged overseas earnings. UK companies are feeling the effects of stronger sterling, higher interest rates (via the housing market and retail sales) and modest economic recovery. In Japan, disappointing economic data has raised questions about the sustainability of the recovery, but the bottom up evidence supports equity valuations. 8 PERFORMANCE OVERVIEW AMERICAN AADVANTAGE INTERNATIONAL EQUITY INDEX FUND(SM) December 31, 2004 (unaudited) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- For the twelve months ended December 31, 2004, the Institutional Class of the American AAdvantage International Equity Index Fund posted an impressive total return of 20.12%, closely tracking the MSCI EAFE Index return of 20.25% and outperforming the Lipper International Large-Cap Core Funds Index return of 17.10%.

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 Institutional Class of the S&P 500 Index Fund commenced operations on December 31, 1996, and the Fund commenced sale of a second class of shares, designated as "PlanAhead Class" shares, on March 2, 1998. The Institutional Class 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.
% OF PORTFOLIO HELD BY FUND AT AMERICAN AADVANTAGE: PORTFOLIOS: DECEMBER 31, 2004 -------------------- ----------- ----------------- S&P 500 Index Fund State Street Equity 500 Index Portfolio 10.6% Small Cap Index Fund Master Small Cap Index Series 11.0% International Equity Index Fund Master International Index Series 7.6%
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 each Portfolio are allocated pro rata among the investors in that Portfolio at the time of such determination. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 15 AMERICAN AADVANTAGE FUNDS NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- CONTINUED December 31, 2004 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dividends to Shareholders 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, if any, of net realized capital gains are generally paid annually and recorded on the ex-dividend date. Dividends are determined in accordance with income tax principles that may treat certain transactions differently than generally accepted accounting principles. 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 U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Other Under the Trust's organizational documents, its officers and directors are indemnified against certain liability arising out of the performance of their duties to the Trust. In the normal course of business, the Trust enters into contracts that provide indemnification to the other party or parties against potential costs or liabilities. The Trust's maximum exposure under these arrangements is dependent on claims that may be made in the future and, therefore, cannot be estimated. The Trust has had no prior claims or losses pursuant to any such agreement. 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 each 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. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 16 AMERICAN AADVANTAGE FUNDS NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- CONTINUED December 31, 2004 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Service Agreement The Manager and the Trust entered into a Service Agreement that 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% of the average daily net assets of the PlanAhead Class of the S&P 500 Index Fund. 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 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. At December 31, 2004, the employee benefit plans of AMR Corporation and its subsidiary companies owned 87.3% of the Institutional Class of the S&P 500 Index Fund, 98.8% of the Small Cap Index Fund and 99.3% of the International Equity Index Fund. 3. 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 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 tax provision is required. Dividends are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations which may treat certain transactions differently than United States generally accepted accounting principles. Accordingly, the character of distributions and composition of net assets for tax purposes may differ from those reflected in the accompanying financial statements. The tax character of distributions during the years ended December 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003 were as follows (in thousands):

INTERNATIONAL S&P 500 SMALL CAP EQUITY INDEX INDEX FUND INDEX FUND FUND ---------- ---------- ------------- Cost basis of investments for federal income tax purposes... $243,662 $32,109 $24,510 Unrealized appreciation................................... 92,971 10,556 (50) Unrealized depreciation...................................

Financial reporting records are adjusted for permanent book/tax differences to reflect tax character. Financial records are not adjusted for temporary differences. The temporary differences between financial reporting and tax-basis reporting of unrealized appreciation/(depreciation) are attributable primarily to the tax deferral of wash sales, the realization for tax purposes of unrealized gains/(losses) on certain derivative instruments, the tax treatment of income from investments in real estate investment trusts, and the realization for tax purposes of unrealized gains /(losses) on investments in passive foreign investment companies. Due to the inherent differences in the recognition of income, expenses and realized gains/(losses) under the United States generally accepted accounting principles and federal income tax regulations, permanent differences between book and tax reporting have been identified and appropriately reclassified on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities without impacting the net assets of the Fund. These differences are due primarily to the tax treatment of income from real estate investment trusts, foreign exchange gains/(losses) and gains/(losses) arising from redemption-in-kind transactions. Accordingly, the following amounts represent current year permanent differences that have been reclassified as of December 31, 2004 (in thousands):

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. We conducted our audits in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for purposes of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Funds' internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements and financial highlights, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and 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, 2004, the results of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated therein, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. -S- ERNST & YOUNG LLP Chicago, Illinois February 23, 2005 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 25 AMERICAN AADVANTAGE FUNDS TAX INFORMATION FOR THE TAX YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2004 (unaudited) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- We are providing this information as required by the Internal Revenue Code.

The meeting related to each series of the Trust, including the S&P 500 Index Fund, Small Cap Index Fund and International Equity Index Fund (the "Funds"). With respect to the Funds, the purpose of the meeting was to consider Proposal 1 to re-elect the five current Trustees and to elect three additional Trustees and Proposal 2 to adopt an amendment to the Declaration of Trust of the Trust to permit the Trustees to amend the Declaration of Trust in the future without shareholder approval under certain circumstances. Both proposals were Trust-level matters and therefore required a majority of the shareholders of the Trust to vote to achieve a quorum. A quorum of the Trust was present for Proposal 1, and that proposal was approved by shareholders. A quorum of the Trust was present for Proposal 2, but there were not enough votes in favor of the proposal for shareholder approval. Proposal 2 was adjourned to a second special meeting of shareholders on August 24, 2004. A quorum of the Trust was present for Proposal 2 at the August 24th meeting. However, the votes were not recorded, and the Trust adjourned this matter to a third special meeting of shareholders on September 17, 2004 to coincide with adjourned items for other series of the Trust. At the September 17th meeting, a quorum was present for Proposal 2, and the proposal was approved by shareholders. The final voting results for each Proposal are presented in the following tables. The vote tallies include votes cast by shareholders of other series of the Trust not contained in this annual report. (1) Elected the following Trustees to the Trust's Board of Trustees: W. Humphrey Bogart, Brenda A. Cline, Alan D. Feld, Richard A. Massman, Stephen D. O'Sullivan, William F. Quinn, R. Gerald Turner, and Kneeland Youngblood.

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, 2004, only the Portfolio, State Street MSCI(R) EAFE(R) Index Portfolio and State Street Money Market 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(R) Index"). The Portfolio uses a passive management strategy designed to track the performance of the S&P 500(R) Index. The S&P 500(R) 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 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. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 42 STATE STREET EQUITY 500 INDEX PORTFOLIO NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- CONTINUED December 31, 2004 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 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(R) 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, sovereign debt, 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, 2004, the earned income for the Portfolio and State Street was $69,912 and $23,304, 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, 2004, the value of the securities loaned amounted to $97,985,663. The loans were collateralized with cash of $98,441,667, which the Portfolio then invested in the State Street Navigator Securities Lending Prime Portfolio (the "Prime Portfolio"), an affiliated investment -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 43 STATE STREET EQUITY 500 INDEX PORTFOLIO NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- CONTINUED December 31, 2004 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- company, and letters of credit from JP Morgan Chase Bank and BNP Paribas in the amounts of $1,264,800 and $2,150,160, respectively. Use of Estimates The Portfolio's financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles that require the use of management estimates. Actual results could differ from those estimates. 3. SECURITIES TRANSACTIONS: For the year ended December 31, 2004, purchases and sales of investment securities, excluding short-term investments, futures contracts, and in-kind withdrawals, aggregated to $237,412,033 and $297,872,960, respectively. The aggregate value of in-kind withdrawals was $72,956,408. At December 31, 2004, the tax cost of investments was $2,450,998,571. The aggregate gross unrealized appreciation and gross unrealized depreciation was $783,440,674 and $371,879,248, respectively, resulting in net appreciation of $411,561,426 for all securities as computed on a federal income tax basis. The differences between book and tax cost amounts are primarily due to wash sale loss deferrals. 4. RELATED PARTY FEES AND TRANSACTIONS: The Portfolio has entered into an investment advisory agreement with SSgA Funds Management, Inc. ("SSgA FM"), a subsidiary of State Street Corp. and an affiliate of State Street, under which SSgA FM 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 FM'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 FM. 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 FM. Investments in State Street Corp., the holding company of State Street, were made according to its representative portion of the S&P 500(R) Index. The market value of each of these investments at December 31, 2004 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 FM. For the year ended December 31, 2004, the Portfolio paid brokerage commissions to State Street Global Markets LLC of $52,740. 5. INDEMNIFICATIONS: Like many other companies, the Trust's organizational documents provide that its officers and trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Trust. In addition, both in some of its principal service contracts and in the normal course of its -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 44 STATE STREET EQUITY 500 INDEX PORTFOLIO NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- CONTINUED December 31, 2004 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- business, the Trust enters into contracts that provide indemnifications to other parties for certain types of losses or liabilities. The Trust's maximum exposure under these arrangements in unknown as this could involve future claims against the Trust.

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 the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Portfolio's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements and financial highlights, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2004, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers or other appropriate auditing procedures where replies from the brokers were not received. 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 the State Street Equity 500 Index Portfolio of State Street Master Funds at December 31, 2004, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated therein, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. -s- ERNST & YOUNG LLP Boston, Massachusetts February 11, 2005 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 46 STATE STREET EQUITY 500 INDEX PORTFOLIO OFFICERS AND TRUSTEES (unaudited) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- STATE STREET MASTER FUNDS

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 U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, which may require the use of management accruals and estimates. Actual results may differ from these 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 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 60 MASTER SMALL CAP INDEX SERIES NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- CONTINUED December 31, 2004 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- which they are determined and the close of business on the NYSE that may not be reflected in the computation of 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 specified 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 con-tract. 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. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 61 MASTER SMALL CAP INDEX SERIES NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- CONTINUED December 31, 2004 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (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 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 finders', 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. 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 all expenses incurred by the Series will not exceed .08%. This arrangement has a one-year term and is renewable. FAM reimbursed the Series for the amount of $2,910. Merrill Lynch Trust Company ("MLTC"), 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, 2004, the Series lent securities with a value of $246,974 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 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, -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 62 MASTER SMALL CAP INDEX SERIES NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- CONTINUED December 31, 2004 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 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, 2004, MLIM, LLC received $50,177 in securities lending agent fees from the Series. For the year ended December 31, 2004, the Series reimbursed FAM $7,957 for certain accounting services.

INVESTMENTS: Purchases and sales of investments, excluding short-term securities, for the year ended December 31, 2004 were $138,270,159 and $125,776,247, respectively. 4. SHORT-TERM BORROWINGS: The Trust, on behalf of the Series, along with certain other funds managed by FAM and its affiliates, is a party to a $500,000,000 credit agreement with a group of lenders. The Series may borrow under the credit agreement to fund shareholder 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 .07% 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 Series' election, the federal funds rate plus .50% or a base rate as defined in the credit agreement.

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 the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Trust's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2004, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers; where replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Master Small Cap Index Series of the Quantitative Master Series Trust as of December 31, 2004, 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 U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

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 nontransferable interests in the Series, subject to certain limitations. The Series' financial statements are prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, which may require the use of management accruals and estimates. Actual results may differ from these 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 oft he 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 Portfolio 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 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 79 MASTER INTERNATIONAL INDEX SERIES NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- CONTINUED December 31, 2004 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- determined and the close of business on the NYSE that may not be reflected in the computation of 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. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 80 MASTER INTERNATIONAL INDEX SERIES NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- CONTINUED December 31, 2004 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (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. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 81 MASTER INTERNATIONAL INDEX SERIES NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- CONTINUED December 31, 2004 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 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 all expenses incurred by the Series will not exceed .12%. This arrangement has a one-year term and is renewable. For the year ended December 31, 2004, FAM reimbursed the Series in the amount of $40,784. Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated, a subsidiary of ML & Co., received $21 in commissions on the execution of portfolio security transactions for the Series for the year ended December 31, 2004. For the year ended December 31, 2004, the Series reimbursed FAM $10,318 for certain accounting services. Certain officers and/or trustees of the Series 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, 2004 were $61,414,436 and $330, 369,421, respectively. 4. COMMITMENTS: At December 31, 2004, the Series had entered into foreign exchange contracts, in addition to the contracts listed in the Schedule of Investments, under which it had agreed to sell various foreign currencies with an approximate value of $79,000. 5. SHORT-TERM BORROWINGS: The Trust, on behalf of the Series, along with certain other funds managed by FAM and its affiliates, is a party to a $500,000,000 credit agreement with a group of lenders. The Series may borrow under the credit agreement to fund shareholder 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 .07% 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, a teach Series election, the federal funds rate plus .50% or abase rate as defined in the credit agreement. The Series did not borrow under the credit agreement during the year ended December 31, 2004. On November 26, 2004, the credit agreement was renewed for one year under substantially the same terms. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 82 MASTER INTERNATIONAL INDEX SERIES REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM December 31, 2004 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- To the Investors and Board of Trustees of Quantitative Master Series Trust: We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the summary schedule of investments, of Master International Index Series, one of the portfolios constituting the Quantitative Master Series Trust (the "Trust") as of December 31, 2004, 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 the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Trust's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2004, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers; where replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Master International Index Series of the Quantitative Master Series Trust as of December 31, 2004, 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 U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

American AAdvantage Treasury Inflation Protected Securities Fund Letter to Shareholders -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fellow Shareholders: Enclosed please find the Annual Report for the American AAdvantage Treasury Inflation Protected Securities Fund for the period from June 30, 2004 (inception of the Fund) through December 31, 2004. The year began with the lowest Fed Funds rate in 45 years at 1.0%. The U.S. economy in 2004 can best be characterized as experiencing modest inflation with a benign outlook. Surprisingly, however, the benchmark 10-year U.S. Treasury note ended 2004 just as it had started the year, yielding approximately 4.25% in spite of the Federal Reserve Board increasing the short- term interest rate by 125 basis points to 2.25%. Even at this level, the "real" interest rate is below historical levels. The American AAdvantage Treasury Inflation Protected Securities Fund realized a return of 3.94% from its inception on June 30, 2004 through December 31, 2004. Looking forward, the Treasury Inflation Protected Securities Fund will continue to seek inflation protection and income by investing primarily in inflation- indexed debt securities. 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 AAdvantage Treasury Inflation Protected Securities Fund Market Overview -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Yields Statistics released during the third quarter revealed an economic "soft patch" that paved the way for TIPS yields to fall 10 to 30 basis points. The TIPS yield curve flattened marginally during the quarter, with 10-year yields falling 7 basis points more than 3-year yields. In the fourth quarter, despite relatively strong economic data, rising nominal yields, and two additional Fed tightening moves, real yields fell and TIPS performed extremely well. The real yield curve flattened dramatically during the fourth quarter as 3-year TIPS yields increased 6 basis points, 10-year TIPS yields fell 12 basis points, and 30-year TIPS yields fell 23 basis points. The TIPS market, as defined by the Lehman U.S. TIPS Index, returned 2.51% for the quarter; well above the U.S. Treasury nominal bond return of 0.42%. Foreign inflation-indexed "linkers" outperformed their U.S. counterparts by 10-20 basis points, on a fully hedged basis, as weak economic growth in Europe caused yields to decline more significantly. Break-even Inflation Rates In the third quarter, benign inflation data, together with the weaker than expected economic news, brought about a clear easing in inflation expectations. Break-even inflation rates (difference between nominal Treasury yield and TIPS yield) fell 10 to 20 basis points across the curve. The break-even inflation curve (break-even inflation rates at points along the entire yield curve) flattened during the quarter, which indicated to us that long-term inflation expectations were falling by more than short-term inflation expectations. In the fourth quarter, the break-even inflation curve (break-even inflation rates along the maturity spectrum) flattened 15 basis points. Simply put, short-term TIPS out-performed their nominal bond counterparts by a greater amount than long-term TIPS out-performed their nominal bond counterparts. Year-over-year CPI inflation rose from 2.5% in September to 3.5% in December, a multi-year high. The rise was primarily driven by the continued escalation in basic commodity prices. Oil prices, driven by tight supplies, growing demand, and concerns about supply disruptions, rose over 30% in 2004. The oil price rise led natural gas and heating oil prices to multi-year highs. This run up in commodity prices fueled strong demand for inflation protection among investors. Higher inflation reports bought about a clear increase in inflation expectations among market participants. Break-even inflation rates increased 20-30 basis points across the curve. The largest increases in break-even rates occurred in shorter maturities where nominal yields experienced a more significant upward move. Issuance The second half of the year also brought record new issuance and "new" new issuance. In July, the U.S. Treasury successfully auctioned a new 10-year maturity TIP and the first ever 20-year TIP. Bid/cover ratios for the auctions were in line with recent experience. The U.S. Treasury "reopened" the existing 10-year TIPS in October. The Treasury auctioned an incremental $9 billion of these securities, which brought the total size of the issue to $19 billion. The auction was met with good, but not overwhelming demand. In the fourth quarter, TIPS outstanding surpassed the $250 billion mark. 2 American AAdvantage Treasury Inflation Protected Securities Fund Performance Overview December 31, 2004 (Unaudited) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Institutional Class of the Fund returned 3.94% for the period from June 30, 2004 (inception of Fund) through December 31, 2004, trailing the Lehman Brothers 1-10 Yr U.S. TIPS Index (the "Index") return of 4.96%, the Lehman Brothers U.S. TIPS Index return of 6.45%, and the Lipper TIPS Index return of 6.90%.

1. Performance shown is historical and may not be indicative of future returns. Investment returns and principal value will vary, and shares may be worth more or less at redemption than at original purchase. Performance shown is as of date indicated and may differ from current performance. To obtain performance information as of the most recent month-end, please visit www.aafunds.com or call 1-800-967-9009. Fund performance in the table above does not reflect the deduction of taxes a shareholder would pay on distributions or the redemption of shares. Although the Fund underperformed the Index for the six-month time period, most of the underperformance occurred in July, the Fund's initial month. Although the Fund began operations on June 30, 2004, it did not have sufficient assets to create a diversified portfolio of Treasury Inflation Protected Securities ("TIPS") until July 8, 2004. In the first week of July, the TIPS market rallied by approximately 1%. From July 8th, when the Fund began investing in the TIPS market the return for the Fund and the Index were comparable. While the Fund had a small percentage of its assets in non-TIPS during the period, the vast majority of its assets (over 90%) was invested in TIPS. The Fund's average maturity and real duration were slightly shorter than the Index, while the average coupon was slightly lower than the Index. The Fund remains focused on investing primarily in TIPS to provide inflation protection and income to its shareholders. Portfolio Diversification

The bar chart above represents the Fund's portfolio as of December 31, 2004. The Fund's portfolio is actively managed, and its portfolio composition, credit quality breakdown, and other portfolio characteristics will vary from time to time. U.S. Treasury Inflation Protected Securities are unrated, but are backed by the full faith and credit of the government of the United States of America and are therefore considered by the Fund's investment advisor to be comparable to bonds rated AAA/Aaa. 3 American AAdvantage Treasury Inflation Protected Securities Fund Performance Overview (Continued) December 31, 2004 (Unaudited) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fund Expense Example As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, administrative service fees, and other Fund expenses. The examples below are intended to help you understand the ongoing cost (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from July 1, 2004 through December 31, 2004. Actual Expenses The "Actual" lines of the table provide information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. Shareholders of the Institutional Class that invest in the Fund through an IRA may be subject to a custodial IRA fee of $12 that is typically deducted each December. If your account was subject to a custodial IRA fee during the period, your costs would have been $12 higher. Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes The "Hypothetical" lines of the table provide information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund's actual expense ratio and an assumed 5% per year rate of return before expenses (not the Fund's actual return). You may compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund with other funds by contrasting this 5% hypothetical example and the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. Shareholders of the Institutional Class that invest in the Fund through an IRA may be subject to a custodial IRA fee of $12 that is typically deducted each December. If your account was subject to a custodial IRA fee during the period, your costs would have been $12 higher. You should also be aware that the expenses shown in the table highlight only your ongoing costs and do not reflect any transaction costs charged by the Fund. Similarly, the expense examples for other funds do not reflect any transaction costs charged by those funds, such as sales charges (loads), redemption fees or exchange fees. Therefore, the "Hypothetical" lines of the table are useful in comparing ongoing costs only and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. If you were subject to any transaction costs during the period, your costs would have been higher.
BEGINNING ENDING ACCOUNT ACCOUNT EXPENSES PAID VALUE VALUE DURING PERIOD* 7/1/04 12/31/04 7/1/04-12/31/04 --------- --------- --------------- INSTITUTIONAL CLASS Actual $1,000.00 $1,039.38 $2.36 Hypothetical $1,000.00 $1,022.82 $2.34 (5% return before expenses)
* Expenses are equal to the Fund's annualized expense ratio for the six-month period of 0.23%, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by the number derived by dividing the number of days in the most recent fiscal half-year (184) by days in the year (366) to reflect the half-year period. 4 American AAdvantage Treasury Inflation Protected Securities Fund Schedule of Investments December 31, 2004 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- in thousands, except share amounts

A The American AAdvantage Treasury Inflation Protected Securities Fund commenced active operations on June 30, 2004. See accompanying notes 8 American AAdvantage Treasury Inflation Protected Securities Fund Notes to Financial Statements December 31, 2004 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Note 1-Organization and Significant Accounting Policies Organization American AAdvantage Funds (the "Trust") is organized as a Massachusetts business trust and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as a no load, open-end management investment company. The American AAdvantage Treasury Inflation Protected Securities Fund (the "Fund") is a series of the Trust and commenced active operations on June 30, 2004. 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 Fund. Security Valuation Net asset value per share is calculated as of the close of business on the New York Stock Exchange, normally 4:00 pm Eastern Time. Debt securities (other than short-term securities) normally are valued on the basis of prices provided by a pricing service and may take into account appropriate factors such as institution-size trading in similar groups of securities, yield, quality, coupon rate, maturity, type of issue, trading characteristics and other market data. In some cases, the prices of debt securities may be determined using quotes obtained from brokers. Investments in mutual funds are valued at the closing net asset value per share of the mutual fund on the day of valuation. Investment grade short-term obligations with 60 days or less to maturity are valued using the amortized cost method. Securities for which the above valuation procedures are inappropriate or are deemed not to reflect fair value are valued at fair value, as determined in good faith and pursuant to procedures approved by the Trust's Board of Trustees (the "Board"). Security Transactions and Investment Income Security transactions are recorded on the trade date of the security purchase or sale. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income is earned from settlement date, recorded on an accrual basis, and adjusted, if necessary, for accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums. For financial and tax reporting purposes, realized gains and losses are determined on the basis of specific lot identification. Dividends to Shareholders The Fund generally declares dividends from net investment income daily, payable monthly. Distributions, if any, of net realized capital gains are generally paid annually and recorded on the ex-dividend date. Currency Translation All assets and liabilities initially expressed in foreign currency values are converted into U.S. dollar values at the mean of the bid and ask prices of such currencies against U.S. dollars as last quoted by a recognized dealer. Income, expenses and purchases and sales of investments are translated into U.S. dollars at the rate of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions. The effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on investments is separately identified from the fluctuations arising from changes in market values of securities held and is reported with all other foreign currency gains and losses in the Fund's Statement of Operations. Forward Foreign Currency Contracts 9 American AAdvantage Treasury Inflation Protected Securities Fund Notes to Financial Statements December 31, 2004 (Continued) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Portfolio may enter into forward foreign currency contracts to hedge the exchange rate risk on investment transactions or to hedge the value of portfolio securities denominated in foreign currencies. Forward foreign currency contracts are valued at the forward exchange rate prevailing on the day of valuation. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements. Actual results may differ from those estimated. Other Under the Trust's organizational documents, its officers and directors are indemnified against certain liability arising out of the performance of their duties to the Trust. In the normal course of business, the Trust enters into contracts that provide indemnification to the other party or parties against potential costs or liabilities. The Trust's maximum exposure under these arrangements is dependent on claims that may be made in the future and, therefore, cannot be estimated. The Trust has had no prior claims or losses pursuant to any such agreement. Note 2-Transactions with Affiliates Management Agreement The Trust and the Manager are parties to a Management Agreement that obligates the Manager to provide or oversee the provision of all administrative, investment advisory, fund management and securities lending services. Investment assets of the Fund are managed by multiple investment advisers that have entered into separate investment advisory agreements with the Manager. As compensation for performing the duties required under the Management Agreement, the Manager receives from the Fund an annualized fee equal to 0.10% of the Fund's average daily net assets plus amounts paid by the Manager to the investment advisers of the Fund. During the period ended December 31, 2004, the management fee range, including fees paid to investment advisers, was from 0.15% to 0.25%, depending upon assets under management. Total management fees were $21,690, of which $13,014 was paid to investment advisers and $8,676 was retained by the Manager. 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 .10% of the average daily net assets of the Fund. Investment in Affiliated Fund The Fund may invest in the American AAdvantage Money Market Select Fund (the "Select Fund"). The Manager serves as investment adviser to the Select Fund and receives from the Select Fund an annualized fee equal to 0.10% of the Select Fund's average daily net assets. During the period, fees earned by the Manager from the Fund's investment in the Select Fund were $1,151. 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 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. Reimbursement of Expenses 10 American AAdvantage Treasury Inflation Protected Securities Fund Notes to Financial Statements December 31, 2004 (Continued) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Manager voluntarily reimbursed a portion of its fees received from the Fund during the period ended December 31, 2004 to the extent that total Fund operating expenses exceeded 0.46%. The Manager reimbursed expenses totaling $14,537 during the period. Note 3-Federal Income and Excise Taxes It is the policy of the Fund to comply with the requirements of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code 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 tax provision is required. Dividends are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations that may treat certain transactions differently than U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Accordingly, the character of distributions and composition of net assets for tax purposes may differ from those reflected in the accompanying financial statements. During the period ended December 31, 2004, the Fund distributed ordinary income dividends totaling $406,245. As of December 31, 2004, the components of distributable earnings were as follows (in thousands): Cost basis of investments for federal income tax purposes........... $20,778 Unrealized appreciation............................................. 115 Unrealized depreciation............................................. (27) ------- Net unrealized appreciation......................................... 88 Undistributed ordinary income....................................... 148 ------- Distributable earnings.............................................. $ 236 -------
Financial reporting records are adjusted for permanent book/tax differences to reflect tax character. Financial records are not adjusted for temporary differences. The temporary differences between financial reporting and tax- basis reporting of unrealized appreciation/(depreciation) are attributable primarily to the tax deferral of wash sales and current recognition of unrealized appreciation/(depreciation) on open foreign currency transactions. Due to the inherent differences in the recognition of income, expenses and realized gains/(losses) under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and federal income tax regulations, permanent differences between book and tax reporting have been identified and appropriately reclassified on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities without impacting the net assets of the Fund. These differences are due primarily to the recognition of certain foreign currency gains/(losses) as ordinary income for tax purposes. Net capital and foreign currency losses incurred after October 31, 2004 and within the taxable year are deemed to arise on the first business day of the Fund's next taxable year. For the period ended December 31, 2004, the Fund deferred $3,823 of foreign currency losses to January 1, 2005. Note 4-Investment Transactions Purchases and redemptions of investments for the period ended December 31, 2004, excluding short-term investments, were $53,116,683 and $33,470,330, respectively. The Fund had purchases and sales of U.S. government securities of $52,155,266 and $32,897,414, respectively. A summary of the Fund's transactions in the Select Fund for the period ended December 31, 2004 is as follows: 11 American AAdvantage Treasury Inflation Protected Securities Fund Notes to Financial Statements December 31, 2004 (Continued) --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Note 5-Foreign Currency Contracts In order to protect itself against foreign currency fluctuations, the Fund has entered into forward contracts to deliver or receive foreign currency in exchange for U.S. dollars as described below. The Fund bears the market risk that arises from changes in foreign exchange rates, and accordingly, the unrealized gain (loss) on these contracts is reflected in the accompanying financial statements. The Fund also bears the credit risk if the counterparty fails to perform under the contract. At December 31, 2004, the Fund had outstanding forward foreign currency contracts as follows (amounts in thousands):
Settlement Unrealized Contracts to Deliver Date Value Gain/(Loss) -------------------- ---------- ------- ----------- 122 Euro Currency....................... 01/20/2005 $ 165 $ (4) ------- ----------- TOTAL CONTRACTS TO DELIVER (Receivable amount $161).............. $ 165 $ (4) ------- -----------
The Fund may purchase securities with delivery or payment to occur at a later date. At the time the Fund enters into a commitment to purchase a security, the transaction is recorded and the value of the security is reflected in the net asset value. The value of the security may vary with market fluctuations. Note 6-Subsequent Event Subsequent to December 31, 2004, AMR Investment Services, Inc. will become American Beacon Advisors, Inc. and the American AAdvantage Funds will be known as the American Beacon Funds. The name change becomes effective March 1, 2005. Note 7-Capital Share Transactions The table below summarizes the activity in capital shares (in thousands):

These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements and financial highlights, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2004, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers or by other appropriate auditing procedures where replies from brokers were not received. We believe that our audit provides 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 American AAdvantage Treasury Inflation Protected Securities Fund at December 31, 2004, the results of its operations, the changes in its net assets, and the financial highlights from June 30, 2004 (commencement of operations) to December 31, 2004, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. /s/ Ernst & Young LLP Chicago, Illinois February 18, 2005 14 American AAdvantage Treasury Inflation Protected Securities Fund Tax Information for the Tax Year Ended December 31, 2004 (Unaudited) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- We are providing this information as required by the Internal Revenue Code.
