PORTFOLIO RESULTS
Short Duration Tax-Free Fund
Dear Shareholder,
This report provides an overview on the performance of the Goldman Sachs Short Duration Tax-Free Fund during the one-year reporting period that ended October 31, 2006.
  Performance Review
Over the one-year period that ended October 31, 2006, the Fund’s Class A, B, C, Institutional and Service Shares generated cumulative total returns, without sales charges, of 3.09%, 2.48%, 2.33%, 3.48% and 2.96%, respectively. These returns compared to the 3.12% cumulative total return of the Fund’s benchmark, the Lehman Brothers 1-3 Year Municipal Bond Index, over the same time period.
 
During the reporting period, the primary drivers of performance versus the benchmark were security selection and an exposure to holdings in the lower end of the investment grade spectrum. Class A, B, C and Service Shares were positively impacted by the same strategies, however, unlike the Institutional Shares, they did not outperform the benchmark due to higher expenses.
  Market Environment
A number of continuing themes characterized the 12-month period that ended October 31, 2006. The Federal Reserve Board (the “Fed”) continued to raise interest rates in six more 25 basis point moves, bringing the targeted federal funds rate to 5.25%. Following the hike in rates, yields sold off across the Treasury curve. However, short-term yields rose more dramatically than did long-term yields, leading to a further flattening of the yield curve.
 
Credit spreads also continued to tighten over the reporting period. Investor demand for lower-quality securities was strong, as increased fundamental strength and maturing economic recovery provided municipalities with ample tax receipts. Other entities, such as hospitals, also continued to strengthen their financial positions.
 
The municipal yield curve flattened almost as dramatically as did the Treasury curve, with the spread between 2-year and 30-year yields narrowing from 149 basis points at the end of October 2005 to 54 basis points at the end of October 2006. The municipal market had not seen spreads this flat in over 20 years. Short-term yields rose in response to the Fed’s tightening campaign while longer-term yields actually fell as a result of robust demand for longer maturity municipals. Inflation, a key determinant of longer-term yields, remained in check and approached levels within the Fed’s comfort zone. Crude oil prices, after steadily rising through August 2006, dropped sharply at the end of the third quarter and into October, ending at roughly $60 per barrel. While the price of gold, which is thought by some investors to be a leading indicator of inflation, rose overall during the period, it leveled off from July through October.
 
Supply in the primary municipal market remained robust. However, due to a decline in refinancings, the overall level of supply was slightly lower than the preceding 12 month period. Overall, municipal market supply was $374 billion for the trailing one-year, an approximate 3% decline. This slight dip in supply, coupled with strong demand from retail, institutional and hedge fund investors, drove the outperformance of municipals versus equivalent maturity Treasuries.

PORTFOLIO RESULTS
  Investment Objective
The Fund seeks a high level of current income, consistent with relatively low volatility of principal, that is exempt from regular federal income tax.
  Investment Strategies
In seeking to meet the Fund’s objective, under normal market conditions, we invest at least 80% of the Fund’s net assets in municipal securities, for which the interest is exempt from regular federal income tax and is not a tax preference item under the federal alternative minimum tax. In addition, the Fund may invest in derivative securities, including futures and swaps, primarily for duration management purposes or to take advantage of temporary opportunities in the marketplace. Derivatives are not used for speculative purposes.
  Factors Affecting Performance
The Fund’s security selection and an overweight to A and BBB rated securities enhanced returns over the 12 month period. With the economy strong, defaults low and spreads narrowing, we thought it was an opportune time to pursue potentially higher returns by owning some bonds at the lower end of the investment-grade spectrum. The Fund was rewarded for that decision. Security selection was another positive factor for the Fund during the period. For example, bonds held by the Fund that were issued by the Rhode Island Health and Education Authority for South County Hospital Healthcare System performed well, as they were pre-refunded. As a result of the pre-refunding process, the bonds significantly appreciated in value. Credit selection within Oregon and Louisiana during the third quarter also added to total returns.
 
Offsetting those positive security selection decisions were a few negative factors. While we maintained a duration that was modestly shorter than that of the benchmark for much of the period, it would have improved performance if we had shortened the Fund’s duration more aggressively in the first half of 2006 and extended slightly in the third quarter of 2006. The year has thus far been characterized by a sell-off in first and second quarters, followed by a rally in the third quarter. Additionally, the Fund experienced outflows in June. Accommodating these outflows in a market that was selling off was detrimental to the Fund’s total return.

PORTFOLIO RESULTS
  Outlook
While we believe there will be a year-end boost to growth from falling energy prices, we look for below average growth over the next 12 months from a combination of a softer housing market and the lagging effects of tighter monetary policy. We believe that the Fed will be slow to cut rates in an effort to bring inflation back in line with its preferred ranges. We do not believe that there will be a severe housing-led downturn. The outlook for growth depends on the extent to which a housing slowdown impacts the broader economy. While the net effect could prove a drag on growth, we believe a steady equity market and softening energy prices should provide some relief to the consumer.
 
We believe that municipals will perform in line with the taxable markets over the next few months. We also believe that, despite the municipal curve’s relative steepness to Treasuries, its potential to flatten further is limited.
 
We thank you for your investment and look forward to your continued confidence.

1  The net asset value (NAV) represents the net assets of the class of the Fund (ex-dividend) divided by the total number of shares of the class outstanding. The Fund’s performance reflects the reinvestment of dividends and other distributions. The Fund’s performance does not reflect the deduction of any applicable sales charges.
2  The Lehman Brothers 1-3 Year Municipal Bond Index, an unmanaged index, represents investment grade municipal bonds with maturities greater than one year and less than 4 years, and does not reflect any deduction for fees, expenses or taxes. It is not possible to invest directly in an unmanaged index.
3  The 30-Day Taxable Equivalent Yield of the Fund is calculated by dividing the current 30-Day Standardized Yield by 1 minus the highest 2006 federal income tax rate of 35%.
4  The 30-Day Standardized Yield of the Fund is calculated by dividing the net investment income per share (as defined by securities industry regulations) earned by the Fund over a 30-day period (ending on the stated month-end date) by the maximum public offering price per share of the Fund on the last day of the period. This number is then annualized. This yield does not necessarily reflect income actually earned and distributed by the Fund and, therefore, may not be correlated with the dividends or other distributions paid to shareholders.

Because Institutional and Service Shares do not involve a sales charge, such a charge is not applied to their Standardized Total Returns.
   The returns represent past performance. Past performance does not guarantee future results. The Fund’s investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost.

California Intermediate AMT-Free Municipal Fund
Dear Shareholder,
This report provides an overview on the performance of the Goldman Sachs California Intermediate AMT-Free Municipal
Fund during the one-year reporting period that ended October 31, 2006.
  Performance Review
Over the one-year period that ended October 31, 2006, the Fund’s Class A, C and Institutional Shares generated cumulative total returns, without sales charges, of 4.34%, 3.66% and 4.84%, respectively. These returns compare to the 4.41% cumulative total return of the Fund’s benchmark, the Lehman Brothers CA 1-10 Year Municipal Bond Index, over the same time period.
 
During the reporting period, the Fund’s overweight to the long end of the yield curve enhanced results, as did security selection and an exposure to holdings in the lower end of the investment grade spectrum. Class A and C Shares were positively impacted by the same strategies, however, unlike the Institutional Shares, they did not outperform the benchmark due to higher expenses.
  Market Environment
A number of continuing themes characterized the 12-month period that ended October 31, 2006. The Federal Reserve Board (the “Fed”) continued to raise interest rates in six more 25 basis point moves, bringing the targeted federal funds rate to 5.25%. Following the hike in rates, yields sold off across the Treasury curve. However, short-term yields rose more dramatically than did long-term yields, leading to a further flattening of the yield curve.
 
Credit spreads also continued to tighten over the reporting period. Investor demand for lower-quality securities was strong, as increased fundamental strength and maturing economic recovery provided municipalities with ample tax receipts. Other entities, such as hospitals, also continued to strengthen their financial positions. Despite the fact that California’s housing market has declined, the state has enjoyed stronger job growth this year over last year. Thus far, the impact of the housing market slowdown has been mostly limited to sectors related to real estate and home building.
 
The municipal yield curve flattened almost as dramatically as did the Treasury curve, with the spread between 2-year and 30-year yields narrowing from 149 basis points at the end of October 2005 to 54 basis points at the end of October 2006. The municipal market had not seen spreads this flat in over 20 years.

This slight dip in supply, coupled with strong demand from retail, institutional, and hedge fund investors, drove the outperformance of municipals versus equivalent maturity Treasuries.
  Investment Objective
The Fund seeks a high level of current income that is exempt from regular federal income tax, is not a tax preference item under the federal alternative minimum tax, is exempt from California State personal income tax, and is consistent with preservation of capital. As a secondary objective, the Fund seeks to maximize after-tax total return consistent with the Fund’s intermediate duration and AA/A+ average credit quality.
  Factors Affecting Performance
Term structure, credit quality, and security selection all contributed to the Fund’s returns over the 12-month period. In particular, the Fund’s overweight to the long end of the curve benefited performance, as longer-term municipals outperformed their shorter-term counterparts over the period. Additionally, given that lower quality credits also outperformed, the Fund’s overweight to BBB rated issues enhanced returns. With defaults low and spreads narrowing, we thought it was an opportune time to pursue potentially higher returns by owning some bonds at the lower end of the investment grade spectrum. The Fund was rewarded for that decision. Finally, the Fund’s exposure to the land sector and tobacco bonds boosted performance.
 
Detracting from the Fund’s performance was a lack of exposure to zero-coupon bonds, as they enhanced the Index’s performance over the period.

New York Intermediate AMT-Free Municipal Fund
Dear Shareholder,
This report provides an overview on the performance of the Goldman Sachs New York Intermediate AMT-Free Municipal Fund during the one-year reporting period that ended October 31, 2006.
  Performance Review
Over the one-year period that ended October 31, 2006, the Fund’s Class A, C and Institutional Shares generated cumulative total returns, without sales charges, of 3.74%, 2.98% and 4.12%, respectively. These returns compare to the 4.34% cumulative total return of the Fund’s benchmark, the Lehman Brothers NY 1-10 Year Municipal Bond Index, over the same time period.
 
During the reporting period, the Fund generated positive results, but underperformed its benchmark. The primary detractor from the Fund’s results versus the benchmark was its short duration position. This was detrimental to relative results given the sharp rally in longer maturity municipals during the second half of the reporting period. The Fund’s term structure positioning, which consisted of an overweight to the front end of the yield curve, also hurt relative performance. During the 12-month reporting period, the front end of the yield curve underperformed. These negative factors more than offset the positive aspects of the Fund’s exposure to credit securities.
  Market Environment
A number of continuing themes characterized the 12-month period that ended October 31, 2006. The Federal Reserve Board (the “Fed”) continued to raise interest rates in six more 25 basis point moves, bringing the targeted federal funds rate to 5.25%. Following the hike in rates, yields sold off across the Treasury curve. However, short-term yields rose more dramatically than did long-term yields, leading to a further flattening of the yield curve.
 
Credit spreads also continued to tighten over the 12-month period. Investors continued to gain confidence with lower quality securities, as increased fundamental strength and maturing economic recovery provided municipalities with ample tax receipts. Other entities, such as hospitals, also continued to strengthen their financial positions. New York State’s fiscal picture improved, driven by constructive trends in the economy and tax revenues. The state’s robust financial services sector particularly drove a strengthening in the local economy.
 
The municipal yield curve flattened almost as dramatically as did the Treasury curve, with the spread between 2-year and 30-year yields narrowing from 149 basis points at the end of October 2005 to 54 basis points at the end of October 2006. The municipal market had not seen spreads this flat in over 20 years. Short-term yields rose in response to the Fed’s tightening campaign while longer-term yields actually fell as a result of robust demand for longer maturity municipals.

October, ending at roughly $60 per barrel. While the price of gold, which is thought by some investors to be a leading indicator of inflation, rose overall during the period, it leveled off from July through October.
 
Supply in the primary municipal market remained robust. However, due to a decline in refinancings, the overall level of supply was slightly lower than the preceding 12 month period. Overall, municipal market supply was $374 billion for the trailing one-year, an approximate 3% decline. This slight dip in supply, coupled with strong demand from retail, institutional, and hedge fund investors, drove the outperformance of municipals versus equivalent maturity Treasuries.
  Investment Objective
The Fund seeks a high level of current income that is exempt from regular federal income tax, is not a tax preference item under the federal alternative minimum tax, is exempt from New York State and City personal income taxes, and is consistent with preservation of capital. As a secondary objective, the Fund seeks to maximize after-tax total return consistent with the Fund’s intermediate duration and AA/ A+ average credit quality.
  Factors Affecting Performance
The Fund’s structure and maturity profiles were negative contributors to performance over the 12-month period. For example, the Fund’s exposure to several bonds with call risk detracted from returns. We held these securities, as they were, at one point, candidates for pre-refunding. However, as the yield curve flattened, the specified price at which the bonds were to be redeemed (or called) was unattractive and hurt the Fund’s performance. Regarding maturity structure, the Fund had little exposure to outperforming long bonds. Bonds we did hold beyond the Index’s maturity profile had the aforementioned short call structure, which caused underperformance as the curve flattened.
 
Somewhat offsetting those negative factors was a positive contribution from our overweight to credit securities. The Fund maintained a higher exposure to outperforming BBB rated bonds than the Index, which added to returns over the period.

PORTFOLIO RESULTS
  Outlook
While we believe there will be a year-end boost to growth from falling energy prices, we look for below average growth over the next 12 months from a combination of a softer housing market and the lagged effects of tighter monetary policy. We believe that the Fed will be slow to cut rates in an effort to bring inflation back in line with its preferred ranges. We do not believe that there will be a severe housing-led downturn. The outlook for growth depends on the extent to which a housing slowdown impacts the broader economy. While the net effect could prove a drag on growth, we believe a steady equity market and softening energy prices should provide some relief to the consumer.
 
We believe that municipals will perform in line with the taxable markets over the next few months. We also believe that, despite the municipal curve’s relative steepness to Treasuries, its potential to flatten further is limited.
 
We thank you for your investment and look forward to your continued confidence.

PORTFOLIO RESULTS
Municipal Income Fund
Dear Shareholder,
This report provides an overview on the performance of the Goldman Sachs Municipal Income Fund during the one-year
reporting period that ended October 31, 2006.
  Performance Review
Over the one-year period that ended October 31, 2006, the Fund’s Class A, B, C, Institutional and Service Shares generated cumulative total returns, without sales charges, of 5.59%, 4.87%, 4.80%, 5.98% and 5.51%, respectively. These returns compared to the 5.75% cumulative total return of the Fund’s benchmark, the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Municipal Bond Index, over the same time period.
 
During the reporting period, the primary drivers of performance versus the benchmark were security selection and an exposure to credit securities. Class A, B, C and Service Shares were positively impacted by the same strategies, however, unlike the Institutional Shares, they did not outperform the benchmark due to higher expenses.
  Market Environment
A number of continuing themes characterized the 12-month period that ended October 31, 2006. The Federal Reserve Board (the “Fed”) continued to raise interest rates in six more 25 basis point moves, bringing the targeted federal funds rate to 5.25%. Following the hike in rates, yields sold off across the Treasury curve. However, short-term yields rose more dramatically than did long-term yields, leading to a further flattening of the yield curve.
 
Credit spreads also continued to tighten over the reporting period. Investor demand for lower-quality securities was strong, as increased fundamental strength and maturing economic recovery provided municipalities with ample tax receipts. Other entities, such as hospitals, also continued to strengthen their financial positions.
 
The municipal yield curve flattened almost as dramatically as did the Treasury curve, with the spread between 2-year and 30-year yields narrowing from 149 basis points at the end of October 2005 to 54 basis points at the end of October 2006. The municipal market had not seen spreads this flat in over 20 years. Short-term yields rose in response to the Fed’s tightening campaign while longer-term yields actually fell as a result of robust demand for longer maturity municipals. Inflation, a key determinant of longer- term yields, remained in check and approached levels within the Fed’s comfort zone. Crude oil prices, after steadily rising through August 2006, dropped sharply at the end of the third quarter and into October, ending at roughly $60 per barrel. While the price of gold, which is thought by some investors to be a leading indicator of inflation, rose overall during the period, it leveled off from July through October.
 
Supply in the primary municipal market remained robust. However, due to a decline in refinancings, the overall level of supply was slightly lower than the preceding 12 month period. Overall, municipal market supply was $374 billion for the trailing one-year, an approximate 3% decline. This slight dip in supply, coupled with strong demand from retail, institutional, and hedge fund investors, drove the outperformance of municipals versus equivalent maturity Treasuries.

PORTFOLIO RESULTS
  Investment Objective
The Fund seeks a high level of current income that is exempt from regular federal income tax, consistent with preservation of capital.
  Investment Strategies
In seeking to meet the Fund’s objective, we invest at least 80% of the Fund’s net assets in municipal securities, from which the interest is exempt from regular federal income tax. In addition, the Fund may invest in derivative securities, including futures and swaps, primarily for duration management purposes or to take advantage of temporary opportunities in the marketplace. Derivatives are not used for speculative purposes.
  Factors Affecting Performance
Security selection and overall credit exposure were positive contributors to the Fund’s performance during the period. For example, bonds we held that were issued by the Tobacco Settlement Authority of Iowa performed well, as they were pre-refunded. As a result of the pre-refunding process, the bonds were upgraded from Baa3/ BBB to Aaa, subsequently appreciating in value. Aside from that specific holding, the Fund’s general overweight to the tobacco sector aided performance. Overall, the Fund’s overweight to A and BBB rated securities enhanced returns. With the economy strong, defaults low and spreads narrowing, we thought it was an opportune time to pursue potentially higher returns by owning some bonds at the lower end of the investment-grade spectrum. The Fund was rewarded for that decision.
 
Offsetting our positive performances in credit securities were a few negative factors. While we maintained a duration that was modestly shorter than that of the benchmark for much of the period, it would have improved performance if we had shortened the Fund’s duration more aggressively in the first half of 2006, and extended slightly in the third quarter of 2006. The year has thus far been characterized by a sell-off in the first and second quarters, followed by a rally in the third quarter.

High Yield Municipal Fund
Dear Shareholder,
This report provides an overview on the performance of the Goldman Sachs High Yield Municipal Fund during the one-year reporting period that ended October 31, 2006.
  Performance Review
Over the one-year period that ended October 31, 2006, the Fund’s Class A, B, C and Institutional Shares generated cumulative total returns, without sales charges, of 9.05%, 8.24%, 8.24% and 9.45%, respectively. These returns compare to the 11.87% and 5.75% cumulative total returns of the Fund’s benchmarks, the Lehman Brothers High Yield Municipal Bond Index and the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Municipal Bond Index, respectively, over the same time period.
 
The Fund typically holds both investment grade and high yield securities, as we believe there are generally attractive opportunities in both sectors. As a result, the Fund is benchmarked to both the Lehman Brothers High Yield Municipal Bond Index and the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Municipal Bond Index. During the reporting period, the primary drivers of performance versus the benchmark were security selection and sector rotation. The fund outperformed the investment grade index, as lower credit quality bonds outperformed higher credit quality bonds. However, for the same reason, the Fund underperformed the high yield index, as it held a lower exposure to non-investment grade securities than did the high yield index.
  Market Environment
High yield municipals continued to outperform investment grade municipals, aided by a robust U.S. economy that resulted in a healthy flow of tax revenues at the municipal level. In addition, significant improvements in specific sectors, such as healthcare, airlines and utilities benefited the high yield municipal market. With many issuers enjoying improving credit quality, credit spreads narrowed, boosting prices in the municipal sector.
 
Higher quality, investment grade securities, which tend to correlate more directly with the Treasury market, generally underperformed lower quality bonds due to the upward trend in Treasury yields. A number of continuing themes characterized the 12-month period that ended October 31, 2006. The Federal Reserve Board (the “Fed”) continued to raise interest rates in six more 25 basis point moves, bringing the targeted federal funds rate to 5.25%. Following the hike in rates, yields sold off across the Treasury curve. However, short-term yields rose more dramatically than did long-term yields, leading to a further flattening of the yield curve.
 
Credit spreads also continued to tighten over the reporting period. Investor demand for lower-quality securities was strong, as increased fundamental strength and maturing economic recovery provided municipalities with ample tax receipts. Other entities, such as hospitals, also continued to strengthen their financial positions.

PORTFOLIO RESULTS
The municipal yield curve flattened almost as dramatically as did the Treasury curve, with the spread between 2-year and 30-year yields narrowing from 149 basis points at the end of October 2005 to 54 basis points at the end of October 2006. The municipal market had not seen spreads this flat in over 20 years. Short-term yields rose in response to the Fed’s tightening campaign while longer-term yields actually fell as a result of robust demand for longer maturity municipals. Inflation, a key determinant of longer-term yields, remained in check and approached levels within the Fed’s comfort zone. Crude oil prices, after steadily rising through August 2006, dropped sharply at the end of the third quarter and into October, ending at roughly $60 per barrel. While the price of gold, which is thought by some investors to be a leading indicator of inflation, rose overall during the period, it leveled off from July through October.
 
Supply in the primary municipal market remained robust. However, due to a decline in refinancings, the overall level of supply was slightly lower than the preceding 12 month period. Overall, municipal market supply was $374 billion for the trailing one-year, an approximate 3% decline. This slight dip in supply, coupled with strong demand from retail, institutional, and hedge fund investors, drove the outperformance of municipals versus equivalent maturity Treasuries.
  Investment Objective
The Fund seeks a high level of current income that is exempt from regular federal income tax and may also consider the potential for capital appreciation.
  Investment Strategies
In seeking to meet the Fund’s objective, we invest at least 80% of the Fund’s net assets in municipal securities, for which the interest is exempt from regular federal income tax. In addition, the Fund may invest in derivative securities, including futures and swaps, primarily for duration management purposes or to take advantage of temporary opportunities in the marketplace. Derivatives are not used for speculative purposes.
  Factors Affecting Performance
Sector rotation and security selection continued to contribute positively to the Fund’s total returns. For example, an increase in the Fund’s exposure to unsecured airline-backed bonds was one factor aiding performance during the period. Cost-cutting, reduced capacity and better pricing power all helped the sector. On the security selection side, certain opportunistic trades contributed to performance during the period. For example, we purchased bonds backed by automaker General Motors (GM) after they sold off sharply in response to GM’s own well-publicized financial challenges and the bankruptcy filing by
24


 

PORTFOLIO RESULTS
auto parts company Delphi, which was spun off from GM in 1999. As GM’s credit prospects stabilized later in the period, we sold the bonds at a significant profit.
 
Offsetting these positive contributions from sector and security selection was the Fund’s overall underweight to non-investment grade bonds and its bias towards higher quality bonds during the reporting period. As credit spreads continued to tighten, high yield municipals widely outperformed investment grade municipals over the review period. The Fund continued to hold securities with an average credit quality of BBB. Since its inception, the Fund has generally held a mix of investment-grade and high yield securities, as we feel there are attractive opportunities in both sectors.
  Outlook
While we believe there will be a year-end boost to growth from falling energy prices, we look for below average growth over the next 12 months from a combination of a softer housing market and the lagged effects of tighter monetary policy. We believe that the Fed will be slow to cut rates in an effort to bring inflation back in line with its preferred ranges. We do not believe that there will be a severe housing-led downturn. The outlook for growth depends on the extent to which a housing slowdown impacts the broader economy. While the net effect could prove a drag on growth, we believe a steady equity market and softening energy prices should provide some relief to the consumer.
 
We believe that municipals will perform in line with the taxable markets over the next few months. We also believe that, despite the municipal curve’s relative steepness to Treasuries, its potential to flatten further is limited. We believe that high yield municipal valuations will hold firmly going into 2007 due to strong fundamentals, increasing demand, and healthy supply levels. Despite narrowing spreads, we remain positive on the high yield municipal asset class as a strategic investment.
 
We thank you for your investment and look forward to your continued confidence.

Tennessee Municipal Fund
Dear Shareholder,
This report provides an overview on the performance of the Goldman Sachs Tennessee Municipal Fund for the period from June 5, 2006 through October 31, 2006.
  Performance Review
The Goldman Sachs Tennessee Municipal Fund (the “Fund”) first began operations as the First Funds Tennessee Tax-Free Portfolio (the “Predecessor Fund”). On June 5, 2006, the Predecessor Fund was reorganized as a new portfolio of the Goldman Sachs Trust. Over the period from June 5, 2006 (when the Predecessor Fund reorganized into the Fund) through October 31, 2006, the Goldman Sachs Tennessee Municipal Fund’s Class A, Class C and Institutional Shares generated cumulative total returns of 2.87%, 2.56% and 3.02%, respectively. These returns compared to the 3.28% cumulative total return of the Fund’s Benchmark, the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Municipal Bond Index, over the same time period.
 
During the reporting period, the Fund generated positive results, but underperformed its benchmark. This was primarily due to the Fund’s short duration position versus the benchmark as interest rates fell during the period.
  Market Environment
The Federal Reserve Board (the “Fed”) raised interest rates another 25 basis points at the beginning of the Fund’s inception in June of 2006, bringing the targeted federal funds rate to 5.25%. Over their next three meetings, the Fed held rates steady at 5.25%, taking cues from a series of softer economic data releases. The Treasury yield curve flattened from June through October, with yields under one year rising and yields across the balance of the curve falling. For example, three-month Treasury yields rose from 4.80% to 5.09%. Over the same period, 10-year Treasury yields fell from 5.00% to 4.68%. The municipal yield curve also flattened, though yields rallied across all maturities, with 2-year yields falling 12 basis points and 30-year yields falling 46 basis points.
  Investment Objective
The Fund seeks a high level of current income that is exempt from regular federal income tax and Tennessee State personal income tax and is consistent with preservation of capital.
  Investment Strategies
The Fund invests, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets plus any borrowings for investment purposes (measured at time of purchase) in fixed-income securities issued by or on behalf of the State of Tennessee and its political subdivisions, agencies, instrumentalities and public authorities and other states, territories and possessions of the United States (including the District of Columbia) and the political subdivisions, agencies and instrumentalities thereof, the interest on which is exempt from regular federal income tax (i.e., excluded from gross income for federal income tax

purposes) and is exempt from Tennessee State personal income tax. The Fund may also invest up to 20% of its net assets in municipal securities that are subject to Tennessee State personal income tax. The Fund may invest up to 100% of its net assets in private activity bonds, the interest on which (including the Fund’s distributions of such interest) may be a preference item for purposes of the federal alternative minimum tax. 100% of the Fund’s portfolio will be invested in U.S. dollar-denominated securities.
  Factors Affecting Performance
For the period from the reorganization on June 5, 2006 through October 31, 2006, the Fund underperformed the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Municipal Bond Index. This was largely due to the Fund’s short duration position. This Fund’s main objective since the reorganization has been to extend its maturity to a market neutral duration. As rates rallied across the curve over the review period, this short duration position detracted from relative performance. Since the reorganization, the Fund has continued to focus on reorganizing its portfolio to resemble more closely the duration and maturity profile of its new benchmark, the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Municipal Bond Index.
  Outlook
While we believe there will be a year-end boost to growth from falling energy prices, we look for below average growth over the next 12 months from a combination of a softer housing market and the lagging effects of tighter monetary policy. We believe that the Fed will be slow to cut rates in an effort to bring inflation back in line with its preferred ranges. We do not believe that there will be a severe housing-led downturn. The outlook for growth depends on the extent to which a housing slowdown impacts the broader economy. While the net effect could prove a drag on growth, we believe a steady equity market and softening energy prices should provide some relief to the consumer.
 
We believe that municipals will perform in line with the taxable markets over the next few months. We also believe that, despite the municipal curve’s relative steepness to Treasuries, its potential to flatten further is limited.
 
We thank you for your investment and look forward to your continued confidence.

1  The net asset value (NAV) represents the net assets of the class of the Fund (ex-dividend) divided by the total number of shares of the class outstanding. The Fund’s performance assumes the reinvestment of dividends and other distributions. The Fund’s performance does not reflect the deduction of any applicable sales charges.
2  The Lehman Brothers Aggregate Municipal Bond Index is an unmanaged broad-based total return index composed of approximately 8,000 investment grade, fixed rate, and tax-exempt issues, with a remaining maturity of at least one year. The Index figures do not reflect any deduction for fees, expenses or taxes. It is not possible to invest directly in an unmanaged index.
3  The 30-Day Taxable Equivalent Yield of the Fund is calculated by dividing the current 30-Day Standardized Yield by 1 minus the highest 2006 federal income tax rate of 35%.
4  The 30-Day Standardized Yield of the Fund is calculated by dividing the net investment income per share (as defined by securities industry regulations) earned by the Fund over a 30-day period (ending on the stated month-end date) by the maximum public offering price per share of the Fund on the last day of the period. This number is then annualized. This yield does not necessarily reflect income actually earned and distributed by the Fund and, therefore, may not be correlated with the dividends or other distributions paid to shareholders.

5  The Goldman Sachs Tennessee Municipal Fund first began operations as the Tennessee Tax-Free Portfolio of First Funds (the “Predecessor Fund”). On June 5, 2006, the Predecessor Fund was reorganized as a new portfolio of the Goldman Sachs Trust. Performance of the Predecessor Fund prior to the reorganization is not provided in the above tables because, as part of the reorganization, the Predecessor Fund changed its investment adviser to Goldman Sachs Asset Management, L.P. Additional total return information about the Predecessor Fund is provided in the Financial Highlights table, which is part of this report.
   The Standardized Total Returns are average annual total returns or cumulative total returns (only if the performance period is one year or less) as of the most recent calendar quarter-end. They assume reinvestment of all distributions at NAV. These returns reflect a maximum initial sales charge of 4.5% for Class A Shares and the assumed contingent deferred sales charge for Class C Shares (1% if redeemed within 12 months of purchase).
   Because Institutional Shares do not involve a sales charge, such a charge is not applied to their Standardized Total Returns. The Fund will charge a 2% redemption fee on the redemption of shares (including by exchange) held for 30 calendar days or less. The performance figures do not reflect the deduction of the redemption fee. If reflected, the redemption fee would reduce the performance quoted.
   The returns represent past performance. Past performance does not guarantee future results. The Fund’s investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance quoted above. Please visit our Web site at: www.goldmansachsfunds.com to obtain the most recent month-end returns. Performance reflects expense limitations in effect. In their absence, performance would be reduced. Returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or the redemption of Fund shares.

GOLDMAN SACHS SHORT DURATION TAX-FREE FUND
Performance Summary
October 31, 2006 (Unaudited)
The following graph shows the value as of October 31, 2006, of a $10,000 investment made on November 1, 1996 in the Institutional Shares of the Goldman Sachs Short Duration Tax-Free Fund. For comparative purposes, the performance of the Fund’s benchmark, the Lehman Brothers 1-3 Year Municipal Bond Index (“Lehman 1-3 Year Muni Bond Index”), is shown. This performance data represents past performance and should not be considered indicative of future performance which will fluctuate with changes in market conditions. These performance fluctuations will cause an investor’s shares, when redeemed, to be worth more or less than their original cost. Performance reflects expense limitations in effect. In their absence, performance would be reduced. Returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on capital gains and other taxable distributions or the redemption of fund shares. Performance of Class A, Class B, Class C and Service Shares will vary from the Institutional Shares due to differences in fees and loads. In addition to the investment adviser’s decision regarding issuer/industry investment selection and allocation, other factors may affect portfolio performance. These factors include, but are not limited to, fund operating fees and expenses, portfolio turnover, and subscription and redemption cash flows affecting the Fund.

GOLDMAN SACHS CALIFORNIA INTERMEDIATE AMT-FREE MUNICIPAL FUND
Performance Summary
October 31, 2006 (Unaudited)
The following graph shows the value, as of October 31, 2006, of a $10,000 investment made on November 1, 2005 (commencement of operations) in Class A Shares (with the maximum sales charge of 4.5%) of the Goldman Sachs California Intermediate AMT-Free Municipal Fund. For comparative purposes, the performance of the Fund’s benchmark, the Lehman Brothers CA 1-10 Year Municipal Bond Index, is shown. This performance data represents past performance and should not be considered indicative of future performance which will fluctuate with changes in market conditions. These performance fluctuations will cause an investor’s shares, when redeemed, to be worth more or less than their original cost. Performance reflects expense limitations in effect. In their absence, performance would be reduced. Returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on capital gains and other taxable distributions or the redemption of fund shares. Performance of Class C and Institutional Shares will vary from Class A Shares due to differences in fees and loads. In addition to the investment adviser’s decisions regarding issuer/industry investment selection and allocation, other factors may affect portfolio performance. These factors include, but are not limited to, fund operating fees and expenses, portfolio turnover, and subscription and redemption cash flows affecting the Fund.

GOLDMAN SACHS NEW YORK INTERMEDIATE AMT-FREE MUNICIPAL FUND
Performance Summary
October 31, 2006 (Unaudited)
The following graph shows the value, as of October 31, 2006, of a $10,000 investment made on November 1, 2005 (commencement of operations) in Class A Shares (with the maximum sales charge of 4.5%) of the Goldman Sachs New York Intermediate AMT-Free Municipal Fund. For comparative purposes, the performance of the Fund’s benchmark, the Lehman Brothers NY 1-10 Year Municipal Bond Index, is shown. This performance data represents past performance and should not be considered indicative of future performance which will fluctuate with changes in market conditions. These performance fluctuations will cause an investor’s shares, when redeemed, to be worth more or less than their original cost. Performance reflects expense limitations in effect. In their absence, performance would be reduced. Returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on capital gains and other taxable distributions or the redemption of fund shares. Performance of Class C and Institutional Shares will vary from Class A Shares due to differences in fees and loads. In addition to the investment adviser’s decisions regarding issuer/industry investment selection and allocation, other factors may affect portfolio performance. These factors include, but are not limited to, fund operating fees and expenses, portfolio turnover, and subscription and redemption cash flows affecting the Fund.

GOLDMAN SACHS MUNICIPAL INCOME FUND
Performance Summary
October 31, 2006 (Unaudited)
The following graph shows the value as of October 31, 2006, of a $10,000 investment made on November 1, 1996 in Class A Shares (with the maximum sales charge of 4.5%) of the Goldman Sachs Municipal Income Fund. For comparative purposes, the performance of the Fund’s benchmark, the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Municipal Bond Index (“Lehman Aggregate Muni Bond Index”), is shown. This performance data represents past performance and should not be considered indicative of future performance which will fluctuate with changes in market conditions. These performance fluctuations will cause an investor’s shares, when redeemed, to be worth more or less than their original cost. Performance reflects expense limitations in effect. In their absence, performance would be reduced. Returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on capital gains and other taxable distributions or the redemption of fund shares. Performance of Class B, Class C, Institutional and Service Shares will vary from Class A Shares due to differences in fees and loads. In addition to the investment adviser’s decision regarding issuer/industry investment selection and allocation, other factors may affect portfolio performance. These factors include, but are not limited to, fund operating fees and expenses, portfolio turnover, and subscription and redemption cash flows affecting the Fund.

GOLDMAN SACHS HIGH YIELD MUNICIPAL FUND
Performance Summary
October 31, 2006 (Unaudited)
The following graph shows the value as of October 31, 2006, of a $10,000 investment made on April 3, 2000 (commencement of operations) in the Institutional Shares of the Goldman Sachs High Yield Municipal Fund. For comparative purposes, the performance of the Fund’s benchmarks, the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Municipal Bond Index and Lehman Brothers High Yield Municipal Bond Index (“Lehman Aggregate Muni Bond Index and Lehman High Yield Muni Bond Index”), is shown. This performance data represents past performance and should not be considered indicative of future performance which will fluctuate with changes in market conditions. These performance fluctuations will cause an investor’s shares, when redeemed, to be worth more or less than their original cost. Performance reflects expense limitations in effect. In their absence, performance would be reduced. Returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on capital gains and other taxable distributions or the redemption of fund shares. Performance of Class A, Class B and Class C Shares will vary from the Institutional Shares due to differences in fees and loads. In addition to the investment adviser’s decision regarding issuer/industry investment selection and allocation, other factors may affect portfolio performance. These factors include, but are not limited to, fund operating fees and expenses, portfolio turnover, and subscription and redemption cash flows affecting the Fund.

GOLDMAN SACHS TENNESSEE MUNICIPAL FUND
Performance Summary
October 31, 2006 (Unaudited)
The following graph shows the value, as of October 31, 2006, of a $10,000 investment made on June 5, 2006 (the date the Predecessor Fund was reorganized as a new portfolio of the Goldman Sachs Trust) in the Institutional Shares of the Goldman Sachs Tennessee Municipal Fund. For comparative purposes, the performance of the Fund’s benchmark, the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Municipal Bond Index, is shown. This performance data represents past performance and should not be considered indicative of future performance which will fluctuate with changes in market conditions. These performance fluctuations will cause an investor’s shares, when redeemed, to be worth more or less than their original cost. Performance reflects expense limitations in effect. In their absence, performance would be reduced. Returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on capital gains and other taxable distributions or the redemption of fund shares. Performance of Class A and Class C Shares will vary from the Institutional Shares due to differences in fees and loads. In addition to the investment adviser’s decisions regarding issuer/industry investment selection and allocation, other factors may affect portfolio performance. These factors include, but are not limited to, fund operating fees and expenses, portfolio turnover, and subscription and redemption cash flows affecting the Fund.

1. ORGANIZATION
Goldman Sachs Trust (the “Trust”) is a Delaware statutory trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, (the “Act”) as an open-end management investment company. The Trust includes the Goldman Sachs Short Duration Tax-Free Fund (“Short Duration Tax-Free”), the Goldman Sachs California Intermediate AMT-Free Municipal Fund (“California Municipal”), the Goldman Sachs New York Intermediate AMT-Free Municipal Fund (“New York Municipal”), the Goldman Sachs Municipal Income Fund (“Municipal Income”), the Goldman Sachs High Yield Municipal Fund (“High Yield Municipal”) and the Goldman Sachs Tennessee Municipal Fund (“Tennessee Municipal”), (collectively, the “Funds” or individually a “Fund”). California Municipal and New York Municipal commenced operations on November 1, 2005. Short Duration Tax-Free and Municipal Income are diversified portfolios offering five classes of shares — Class A, Class B, Class C, Institutional and Service. California Municipal, New York Municipal and Tennessee Municipal are non-diversified portfolios offering three classes of shares — Class A, Class C and Institutional. High Yield Municipal is a non-diversified portfolio offering four classes of shares — Class A, Class B, Class C and Institutional. Class A shares of the Short Duration Tax-Free Fund is sold with a front-end sales charge of up to 2.00%. All the other Funds are sold with a front-end sales charge of 4.5%. Class B shares of Short Duration Tax-Free, Municipal Income and High Yield Municipal are sold with contingent deferred sales charges that decline from 2.00% to zero, 5.00% to zero, and 5.00% to zero, respectively, depending upon the period of time that shares are held. Class C shares of the Funds are sold with a contingent deferred sales charge of 1.00% during the first 12 months. Institutional and Service Class shares of the Funds are not subject to a sales charge. Goldman, Sachs & Co. (“Goldman Sachs”) as distributor of the Funds receives such sales loads of which a certain portion may be retained.
     On June 5, 2006, pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization (the “Reorganization Agreement”) previously approved by the Trust’s Board of Trustees, all of the assets, subject to liabilities, of First Funds Tennessee Tax-Free Portfolio (the “Predecessor Fund”), were transferred to Tennessee Municipal in exchange for shares of beneficial interest of the Fund’s Class A and Institutional shares of equal value on the close of business on June 2, 2006. Holders of Class A, Class B and Class C shares of the Predecessor Fund received Class A shares of Tennessee Municipal and holders of Class I shares of Predecessor Fund received Institutional shares of Tennessee Municipal, in each case in an amount equal to the aggregate net asset value of their investment in the Predecessor Fund. On the date of the exchange, Tennessee Municipal created Class C shares. The exchange was a tax-free event to shareholders. The Predecessor Fund was the accounting survivor in the reorganization and as such, the prior years financial statements and financial highlights reflect the financial information of the Predecessor Fund through June 4, 2006. Refer to the Other Matters footnote for details of the reorganization.
     Prior to October 31, 2006, Tennessee Municipal changed its fiscal year end from June 30 to October 31. Accordingly, the most recently presented Statement of Operations, Statement of Changes in Net Assets and Financial Highlights reflect the period from July 1, 2006 to October 31, 2006.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Funds. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that may affect the reported amounts. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
A. Investment Valuation — Portfolio securities for which market quotations are readily available are valued at market value on the basis of quotations furnished by a pricing service or provided by dealers in such securities. Short-term debt obligations maturing in sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. Portfolio securities for which market quotations are not readily available or are deemed not to reflect market value by the investment advisor are valued at fair value based on yield equivalents, pricing matrices or other sources, under valuation procedures established by the Trust’s Board of Trustees.
B. Security Transactions and Investment Income — Security transactions are reflected as of the trade date. Realized gains and losses on sales of portfolio securities are calculated using the identified cost basis. Interest income is recorded on
97


 

GOLDMAN SACHS MUNICIPAL FIXED INCOME FUNDS
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
October 31, 2006
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
the basis of interest accrued, premium amortized and discount accreted. Market discounts, original issue discount and market premiums on debt securities are accreted/amortized to interest income over the life of the security with a corresponding adjustment in the cost basis of that security. Net investment income (other than class specific expenses) and unrealized and realized gains or losses of the Funds are allocated daily to each class of shares of the respective Fund based upon the relative proportion of net assets of each class.
     Pursuant to applicable law and procedures adopted by the Trust’s Board of Trustees, securities transactions in portfolio securities (including futures transactions) may be effected from time to time through Goldman Sachs or an affiliate. In order for Goldman Sachs or an affiliate, acting as an agent, to effect securities or futures transactions for a Fund, the commissions, fees or other remuneration received by Goldman Sachs or an affiliate must be reasonable and fair compared to the commissions, fees or other remunerations received by other brokers in connection with comparable transactions involving similar securities or other futures contracts.
C. Expenses — Expenses incurred by the Trust that do not specifically relate to an individual Fund of the Trust are allocated to the Funds on a straight-line and/or “pro-rata” basis depending upon the nature of the expense.
     Class A, Class B and Class C shareholders of the Funds bear all expenses and fees relating to their respective Distribution and Service Plans. Service Shares bear all expenses and fees related to their Service and Shareholder Administration Plans. Each class of shares of the Funds separately bears its respective class-specific Transfer Agency fees.
D. Federal Taxes and Distributions to Shareholders — It is each Fund’s policy to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”) applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute each year substantially all of its investment company taxable and tax-exempt income and capital gains to its shareholders. Accordingly, no federal tax provisions are required. Dividends and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income distributions are declared daily and paid monthly. Capital gain distributions, if any, are declared and paid annually. Net capital losses are carried forward to future years and may be used to the extent allowed by the Code to offset any future capital gains. Utilization of capital loss carryforwards will reduce the requirement of future capital gain distributions.
     The characterization of distributions to shareholders for financial reporting purposes is determined in accordance with Federal income tax rules, which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles. Therefore, the source of each Fund’s distributions may be shown in the accompanying financial statements as either from net investment income or net realized gain, or as a tax return of capital.
E. Offering Costs — Offering costs paid in connection with the offering of shares of the California Municipal and New York Municipal Funds are amortized on a straight-line basis over 12 months from the date of commencement of operations.
F. Segregation Transactions — As set forth in the prospectuses, the Funds may enter into certain derivative transactions to seek to increase total return. Interest rate swaps, futures contracts, written options, when-issued securities and forward commitments represent examples of such transactions. As a result of entering into these transactions, the Funds may be required to segregate liquid assets with a current value equal to or greater than the market value of the corresponding transactions.
G. Swap Contracts — The Funds may enter into swap transactions for hedging purposes or to seek to increase total return. Risks may arise as a result of the failure of the counterparty to the swap contract to comply with the terms of the swap contract. The loss incurred by the failure of a counterparty is generally limited to the net payment to be received by the Funds, and/or the termination value at the end of the contract. Therefore, the Funds consider the creditworthiness of each counterparty to a contract in evaluating potential credit risk. Additionally, risks may arise from unanticipated movements in interest rates or in the value of the underlying reference asset or index. Entering into these agreements involves, to varying degrees, market, liquidity, elements of credit, legal and documentation risk in excess of amounts recognized in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
     An interest rate swap is an agreement that obligates two parties to exchange a series of cash flows at specified intervals based upon or calculated by reference to changes in specified prices, rates or indices for a specified amount of an underlying
98


 

GOLDMAN SACHS MUNICIPAL FIXED INCOME FUNDS
 
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
notional amount. The payment flows are usually netted against each other, with the difference being paid by one party to the other.
     Swaps are marked to market daily using either pricing vendor quotations, counterparty prices or model prices and the change in value, if any, is recorded as unrealized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Periodic payments received or made on swap contracts are recorded as realized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Gain or losses are also realized upon early termination of the swap agreements.
H. Floating Rate Notes Issued in Conjunction with Securities Held — The Funds may enter into transactions in which they transfer fixed rate bonds to trusts in exchange for cash and residual interests in the trusts’ assets and cash flows, which are in the form of inverse floating rate securities. The inverse floating rate securities issued in connection with the trusts give the Funds the right (1) to cause the holders of the floating rate notes to be tendered at par and (2) to transfer the fixed rate bond from the trusts to the Funds, thereby collapsing the trusts. The Funds account for these transactions as secured borrowings, with the fixed rate bonds remaining in the Funds’ investment assets, and the related floating rate notes reflected as Fund liabilities under the caption “floating rate notes issued” in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The notes issued by the trusts have interest rates that generally reset weekly, and the floating rate note holders have the option to tender their notes to the trusts for redemption at par at each reset date. Expenses of the trusts, including interest paid to holders of the floating rate notes, are reflected as interest expense and fees of the Funds and are included in the Statement of Operations. The following relates to the Funds at October 31, 2006:
                         
    Floating Rate       Collateral for Floating
Fund   Notes Outstanding   Range of Interest Rates   Rate Notes Outstanding
 
Municipal Income
  $ 11,075,000     3.58% to 3.61%     $ 18,096,000  
High Yield Municipal
  $ 230,250,000     3.56% to 3.61%     $ 370,874,511  
 
     For the year ended October 31, 2006, the Municipal Income and High Yield Municipal Funds had average daily liabilities from the participation in inverse floater programs of $11,075,000 and $247,353,000, respectively, and recorded interest expense at an average rate of 3.60% and 3.60%, respectively.
3. AGREEMENTS
A. Investment Management Agreements — Goldman Sachs Asset Management, L.P. (“GSAM”), an affiliate of Goldman Sachs, serves as an investment adviser pursuant to an Investment Management Agreement (the “Agreement”) with the Trust on behalf of the Funds. Under this Agreement, GSAM manages the Funds, subject to the general supervision of the Trust’s Board of Trustees.

     As compensation for the services rendered pursuant to the Agreement, the assumption of the expenses related thereto and administering the Funds’ business affairs, including providing facilities, GSAM is entitled to a fee (“Management fee”) computed daily and payable monthly, equal to an annual percentage rate of each Fund’s average daily net assets.
     GSAM entered into a fee reduction commitment for Short Duration Tax-Free, Municipal Income and High Yield Municipal which was implemented on a voluntary basis prior to February 28, 2006 and on a contractual basis as of February 28, 2006 to achieve the rates listed below.

For the year ended October 31, 2006, GSAM has voluntarily agreed to waive a portion of its Management fee for Short Duration Tax-Free and Municipal Income equal to 0.05% of their respective average daily net assets. GSAM may discontinue or modify these waivers in the future at its discretion.
B. Tennessee Municipal (prior to June 5, 2006) — Prior to the reorganization of Tennessee Municipal on June 5, 2006, First Tennessee Bank National Association (“First Tennessee”) served as investment adviser to the Predecessor Fund. For managing its investment and business affairs, the Predecessor Fund was obligated to pay First Tennessee a management fee at the annual percentage rates as follows:
         
Management Fee Annual Rate   Average Daily Net Assets
 
0.50%

3. AGREEMENTS (continued)
     For the period ended June 4, 2006 (prior to the reorganization), First Tennessee contractually agreed to waive its management fee for the Predecessor Fund to 0.30% of the Predecessor Fund’s average daily net assets.
     Under an investment advisory and management agreement, First Tennessee was authorized, at its own expense, to hire a sub-adviser to provide investment advise to it and the Predecessor Fund. Martin & Company, Inc. (“Martin”) served as sub-adviser to the Predecessor Fund pursuant to the authority granted to it under its sub-advisory agreement with First Tennessee. Martin is an affiliate of First Tennessee and is a wholly-owned subsidiary of First Horizon National Corporation. First Tennessee was obligated to pay Martin a sub-advisory fee at the annual percentage rates as follows:
         
Sub-advisory Fee Annual Rate   Average Daily Net Assets
 
0.30%
  First $ 250 Million  
 
0.27
  Over $ 250 Million  
 
     Prior to the reorganization, ALPS Mutual Funds Services, Inc. (“ALPS”) and ALPS Distributors, Inc. (“ADI”) served as administrator and distributor, respectively, for the Predecessor Fund under separate administration and general distribution agreements. ALPS’ duties included providing office space and various legal and accounting services in connection with the regulatory requirements applicable to the Predecessor Fund. ALPS was entitled to receive administration fees from the Predecessor Fund at the annual percentage rate of 0.115% of average daily net assets.
     Prior to the reorganization, First Tennessee served as the co-administrator for the Predecessor Fund. As the co-administrator, First Tennessee assisted in the Predecessor Fund’s operations, including but not limited to, providing non-investment related research and statistical data and various operational and administrative services. First Tennessee was entitled to receive co-administration fees from the Predecessor Fund at the annual percentage rate of 0.085% of average daily net assets.
     Prior to the reorganization, the Trustees of the First Funds Trust had adopted distribution plans pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Act on behalf of Classes B and C of the First Funds Trust. Each plan provided for payments to ADI at the annual rates up to the amounts listed below. The Trustees of the First Funds Trust had also adopted shareholder servicing plans on behalf of classes A and C of the Predecessor Fund, under which brokers/dealers, advisers or other financial institutions were paid at annual percentage rates up to the amounts shown in the table.
                                 
    Class A   Class B   Class C
             
    Shareholder           Shareholder
Fund   Servicing Fee   12b-1 Fee   12b-1 Fee   Serving Fee
 
Predecessor Fund
    0.25 %     0.70 %     0.75 %     0.25 %
 
     In addition, the Predecessor Fund had adopted a 12b-1 Plan, which provided that various service providers, such as the Predecessor Fund’s administrator, investment adviser, sub-adviser, or co-adviser, may make payments for distribution related expenses out of their own resources, including past profits or payments received from the Predecessor Fund for other purposes such as management fees, and that the Predecessor Fund’s distributor may, from time-to-time, use its own resources for distribution related services, in addition to the fees paid under the Distribution Plan.
     For the period ended June 4, 2006 (prior to the reorganization), the 12b-1 fee charged by Class C of the Predecessor Fund was waived to 0.50% of average net assets. Additionally, the shareholder servicing fee charged by the Class C of the Predecessor Fund was waived in its entirety.
C. Distribution and Service Agreements — The Trust, on behalf of each Fund, has adopted Distribution and Service Plans (the “Plans”). Under the Plans, Goldman Sachs and/or authorized dealers are entitled to a monthly fee for distribution services equal to, on an annual basis, 0.25%, 0.75% and 0.75% of the Funds’ average daily net assets attributable to Class A, Class B and Class C Shares, respectively. Additionally, Goldman Sachs and/or authorized dealers are entitled to receive,
101

3. AGREEMENTS (continued)
under the Plans, a separate fee for personal and account maintenance services equal to, on an annual basis, 0.25% of each Fund’s average daily net assets attributable to Class B and Class C Shares.
     For the year ended October 31, 2006, Goldman Sachs has voluntarily agreed to waive a portion of the Distribution and Service fees equal to 0.15% of the average daily net assets attributable to the Class B Shares of Short Duration Tax-Free. Goldman Sachs may discontinue or modify this waiver in the future at its discretion.
     Goldman Sachs serves as Distributor of the shares of the Funds pursuant to a Distribution Agreement. Goldman Sachs may retain a portion of the Class A sales load and Class B and Class C contingent deferred sales charges. During the period ended October 31, 2006, Goldman Sachs advised the Funds that it retained the following approximate amounts:
                         
        Contingent Deferred
    Sales Load   Sales Charge
         
Fund   Class A   Class B   Class C
 
Short Duration Tax-Free

High Yield Municipal

D. Other Agreements — California Municipal, New York Municipal, Municipal Income and Tennessee Municipal will charge a 2% redemption fee on the redemption of shares (including by exchange) held for 30 calendar days or less. For this purpose, the Funds use a first-in first-out (“FIFO”) method so that shares held longest will be treated as being redeemed first and shares held shortest will be treated as being redeemed last. Redemption fees are reimbursed to the Funds as a reduction in share redemptions and are reflected on the Statement of Changes in Net Assets. Redemption fees are credited to Paid-in capital and are allocated to each share class of the Funds on a pro rata basis.
     Goldman Sachs also serves as the Transfer Agent of the Funds for a fee. The fees charged for such Transfer Agency services are calculated daily and payable monthly at an annual percentage rate of average daily net assets as follows: 0.16% of Class A, Class B and Class C Shares and 0.04% for Institutional and Service Shares.
     The Trust, on behalf of the Short Duration Tax-Free, Municipal Income and High Yield Municipal Funds, has adopted a Service Plan and Shareholder Administration Plan for Service Shares. These plans allow for Service Shares to compensate service organizations for providing varying levels of personal and account administration and shareholder administration services to their customers who are beneficial owners of such shares. The Service Plan and Shareholder Administration Plan provide for compensation to the service organizations in an amount equal to, on an annualized basis, 0.25% and 0.25%, respectively, of the average daily net assets of the Service Shares.
     GSAM has voluntarily agreed to limit certain “Other Expenses” of the Funds (excluding Management fees, Distribution and Service fees, Transfer Agency fees and expenses, taxes, Service Share fees, interest, brokerage fees and litigation, indemnification, shareholder meeting and other extraordinary expenses exclusive of any expense offset arrangements) to the extent such expenses exceed, on an annual basis, a percentage rate of the average daily net assets of each Fund. Such expense reimbursements, if any, are computed daily and paid monthly. In addition, the Funds are not obligated to reimburse GSAM for prior fiscal year expense reimbursements, if any.
     For the year ended October 31, 2006, the Other Expense limitations for Short Duration Tax-Free, California Municipal, New York Municipal, Municipal Income and High Yield Municipal as an annual percentage rate of average daily net assets were 0.004%, 0.044%, 0.044%, 0.004% and 0.004%, respectively.

5. LINE OF CREDIT FACILITY
The Funds participate in a $400,000,000 committed, unsecured revolving line of credit facility together with other registered investment companies having management or investment advisory agreements with GSAM. Under the most restrictive arrangement, the Funds must own securities having a market value in excess of 300% of each Fund’s total bank borrowings. This facility is to be used solely for temporary or emergency purposes. The interest rate on borrowings is based on the federal funds rate. The committed facility also requires a fee to be paid by the Funds based on the amount of the commitment that has not been utilized. During the year ended October 31, 2006, the Funds did not have any borrowings under this facility.
6. PORTFOLIO CONCENTRATIONS
As a result of certain of the Funds’ ability to invest a large percentage of their assets in obligations of issuers within certain states, they are subject to possible concentration risks associated with economic, political or legal developments or industrial or regional matters specifically affecting such states.
7. TAX INFORMATION
The tax character of distributions paid during the fiscal year ended October 31, 2006 was as follows:

7. TAX INFORMATION (continued)
     At October 31, 2006, the Funds’ aggregate security unrealized gains and losses based on cost for U.S. federal income tax purposes was as follows:

     The difference between book-basis and tax-basis unrealized gains (losses) is attributable primarily to wash sales, accretion of market discount, amortization of premium and the tax treatment of partnership investments for book accounting purposes.
     In order to present certain components of the Funds’ capital accounts on a tax basis, certain reclassifications have been recorded to the Funds’ accounts. These reclassifications have no impact on the net asset value of the Funds. These reclassifications resulted primarily from the difference in tax treatment of certain bonds, swap adjustments and taxable over-distributions.

Legal Proceedings — Purported class and derivative action lawsuits were filed in April and May 2004 in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York against the Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. (“GSG”), GSAM and certain related parties, including certain Goldman Sachs Funds (including certain of these Funds) and the Trustees and Officers of the Trust. In June 2004, these lawsuits were consolidated into one action and in November 2004 a consolidated and amended complaint was filed against GSG, GSAM, Goldman Sachs Asset Management International (“GSAMI”), Goldman Sachs and certain related parties including certain Goldman Sachs Funds and the Trustees and Officers of the Trust. Certain of these Funds, along with certain other investment portfolios of the Trust, were named as nominal defendants in the amended complaint. Plaintiffs filed a second amended consolidated complaint on April 15, 2005. The second amended consolidated complaint alleges violations of the Act and the Investment Advisers Act of 1940. The complaint also asserts claims involving common law breach of fiduciary duty and unjust enrichment. The complaint alleges, among other things, that between April 2, 1999 and January 9, 2004 (the ”Class Period”), GSAM and other defendants made improper and excessive brokerage commission and other payments to brokers that sold shares of the Goldman Sachs Funds and omitted statements of fact in registration statements and reports filed pursuant to the Act which were necessary to prevent such registration statements and reports from being materially false and misleading. The complaint further alleges that the Goldman Sachs Funds paid excessive and improper advisory fees to Goldman Sachs. The complaint also alleges that GSAM and GSAMI used 12b-1 fees for improper purposes and made improper use of soft dollars. The complaint further alleges that the Trust’s Officers and Trustees breached their fiduciary duties in connection with the foregoing. On January 13, 2006, all claims against the defendants were dismissed by the U.S. District Court. On February 22, 2006, the plaintiffs appealed this decision. By agreement, the plaintiffs subsequently withdrew their appeal without prejudice but reserved their right to reactivate their appeal pending a decision by the circuit court of appeals in similar litigation. Based on currently available information,

8. OTHER MATTERS (continued)
GSAM and GSAMI believe that the likelihood that the pending purported class action and derivative action lawsuit will have a material adverse financial impact on the Funds is remote, and the pending action is not likely to materially affect their ability to provide investment management services to their clients, including the Goldman Sachs Funds.
New Accounting Pronouncements — On July 13, 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) released FASB Interpretation No. 48 “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” (“FIN 48”). FIN 48 provides guidance for how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, presented and disclosed in the financial statements. FIN 48 requires the evaluation of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing a Fund’s tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions not deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold would be recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year. Adoption of FIN 48 is required for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006 and is to be applied to all open tax years as of the effective date. At this time, the Adviser is evaluating the implications of FIN 48 and its impact in the financial statements has not yet been determined.
     On September 15, 2006, FASB released Statement Financial Accounting Standard No. 157 “Fair Value Measurement” (“FAS 157”) which provides enhanced guidance for using fair value to measure assets and liabilities. The standard requires companies to provide expanded information about the assets and liabilities measured at fair value and the potential effect of these fair valuations of an entity’s financial performance. The standard does not expand the use of fair value in any new circumstances, but provides clarification on acceptable fair valuation methods and applications. FAS 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Adviser does not believe the adoption of FAS 157 will impact the amounts reported in the financial statements, however, additional disclosures will be required.
9. RESTATEMENT OF PRIOR YEAR INFORMATION
     Subsequent to the issuance of its October 31, 2005 financial statements, the Funds determined that the criteria for sale accounting in Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 140 had not been met for certain transfers of municipal bonds during the fiscal years ended October 31, 2005, 2004, 2003 and 2002, and that the transfers should have been accounted for as secured borrowings rather than as sales. Accordingly, the Municipal Income and High Yield Municipal Funds have restated the ratios of net expenses to average net assets, the ratios of total expenses to average net assets and the portfolio turnover rates in the Financial Highlights presented herein for the years ended October 31, 2005, 2004, 2003 and 2002 to give effect to recording the transfers of the municipal bonds as secured borrowings, including recording interest on the transferred bonds as interest income and interest on the secured borrowings as interest expense in the Statements of Operations. Also see note 2H.
     While the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as of October 31, 2005, 2004, 2003 and 2002 (not presented herein) have not been reissued to give effect to the restatement, the principal effects of the restatement would be to increase investments and liabilities for floating notes issued by corresponding amounts at each year-end, with no effect on previously reported net assets or total return. The Statements of Operations for the years ended October 31, 2005, 2004, 2003 and 2002 (not presented herein) have not been reissued to give effect to the restatement, but the principal effects of the restatement would be to increase interest income and total interest expense and fees by corresponding amounts each year, with no effect on the previously reported net investment income or net increase in net assets resulting from operations.

(a)  Calculated based on the average shares outstanding methodology.
(b)  Assumes investment at the net asset value at the beginning of the year, reinvestment of all dividends and distributions, a complete redemption of the investment at the net asset value at the end of the year and no sales or redemption charges. Total return would be reduced if a sales or redemption charge were taken into account. Returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on capital gains and other taxable distributions or the redemption of Fund shares.
(c)  As required, effective November 1, 2001, the Fund has adopted the provisions of the AICPA Audit and Accounting Guide for Investment Companies and began amortizing all premium and discounts on debt securities. The effect of this change for the year ended October 31, 2002 was an impact of less than $0.01 per share to net investment income and net realized and unrealized gains and losses, and an impact to the ratio of net investment income to average net assets with and without expense reductions by less than 0.01%.

(a)  Calculated based on the average shares outstanding methodology.
(b)  Assumes investment at the net asset value at the beginning of the year, reinvestment of all dividends and distributions, a complete redemption of the investment at the net asset value at the end of the year and no sales or redemption charges. Total return would be reduced if a sales or redemption charge were taken into account. Returns do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on capital gains and other taxable distributions or the redemption of Fund shares.
(c)  As required, effective November 1, 2001, the Fund has adopted the provisions of the AICPA Audit and Accounting Guide for Investment Companies and began amortizing all premiums and discounts on debt securities. The effect of this change for the year ended October 31, 2002 was an impact of less than $0.01 per share to net investment income and net realized and unrealized gains and losses, and a decrease to the ratio of net investment income to average net assets with and without expense reductions by 0.04%.
(d)   Ratios have been restated for the years ended October 31, 2005, 2004, 2003 and 2002 (see Note 9).
(e)   Rates have been restated for the years ended October 31, 2005, 2004, 2003 and 2002, which were previously reported as 28%, 41%, 54% and 52%, respectively (see Note 9).

The Fund changed its fiscal year end from June 30 to October 31.
(a)  Calculated based on the average shares outstanding methodology.
(b)  Assumes investment at the net asset value. Returns for periods less than one full year are not annualized. The Goldman Sachs Tennessee Municipal Fund first began operations as the First Funds Tennessee Tax-Free Portfolio (the “Predecessor Fund”). On June 5, 2006, the Predecessor Fund was reorganized as a new fund of the Goldman Sachs Trust. Performance prior to June 5, 2006 is that of the Predecessor Fund. Total return information of the Predecessor Fund is provided in the above table because the Predecessor is considered the accounting survivor of the reorganization. As part of the reorganization, the Predecessor Fund changed its investment advisor to Goldman Sachs Asset Management, L.P. In addition, the Goldman Sachs Fund that the Predecessor Fund reorganized into had investment policies which were not identical to the Predecessor Fund.
(c)  Annualized.
(d)  Not Annualized.
(e)  Ratio includes the affect of the operating expenses of the Predecessor Fund prior to Reorganization.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Shareholders and Board of Trustees
Goldman Sachs Trust
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the statements of investments, of Goldman Sachs Short Duration Tax-Free Fund, Goldman Sachs California Intermediate AMT-Free Municipal Fund, Goldman Sachs New York AMT-Free Municipal Fund, Goldman Sachs Municipal Income Fund, Goldman Sachs High Yield Municipal Fund and Goldman Sachs Tennessee Municipal Fund (six of the funds comprising the Goldman Sachs Trust) (the “Funds”), as of October 31, 2006, and the related statements of operations, statements of changes in net assets and financial highlights for each of the periods indicated therein. 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. With regards to Goldman Sachs Tennessee Municipal Fund, the statement of changes in net assets for the year ended June 30, 2005 and the financial highlights for each of the years presented through June 30, 2005 were audited by other auditors whose report, dated August 16, 2005, expressed an unqualified opinion on such statement and financial highlights.
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. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Funds’ internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included 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 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. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of October 31, 2006, by correspondence with the custodian and others or by other appropriate auditing procedures where replies from others 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 Goldman Sachs Short Duration Tax-Free Fund, Goldman Sachs California Intermediate AMT-Free Municipal Fund, Goldman Sachs New York AMT-Free Municipal Fund, Goldman Sachs Municipal Income Fund, Goldman Sachs High Yield Municipal Fund and Goldman Sachs Tennessee Municipal Fund at October 31, 2006, and the results of their operations the changes in their net assets, and the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated therein, in the conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
As discussed in Note 9 to the Financial Statements, for Goldman Sachs Municipal Income Fund and Goldman Sachs High Yield Municipal Income Fund referred to above, the ratios of net expenses to average net assets, the ratios of total expenses to average net assets, and the portfolio turnover rates for the years ended October 31, 2005, 2004, 2003, and 2002 have been restated.

GOLDMAN SACHS MUNICIPAL FIXED INCOME FUNDS
Fund Expenses (Unaudited) — Six Month Period Ended October 31, 2006
          As a shareholder of Class A, Class B, Class C, Institutional or Service Shares of the Funds you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchase payments (with respect to Class A Shares), or contingent deferred sales charges (loads) on redemptions (with respect to Class B and Class C Shares), and redemption fees (with respect to Municipal Income Fund only); and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and service (12b-1) fees (with respect to Class A, Class B and Class C Shares); and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in Class A, Class B, Class C, Institutional and Service Shares of the Funds and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
          The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from May 1, 2006 (July 1, 2006 for Tennessee Municipal) through October 31, 2006.
Actual Expenses — The first line under each share class in the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000=8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes — The second line under each share class in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Funds’ actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Funds’ actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Funds and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
          Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges (loads), redemption fees, or exchange fees. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

*   Expenses for each share class are calculated using the Fund’s expense ratio for each class, which represents the ongoing expenses as a percentage of net assets for the six months ended 10/31/06 (for the four months ended 10/31/06 for Tennessee Municipal). Expenses are calculated by multiplying the expense ratio by the average account value for the period; then multiplying the result by the number of days in the most recent fiscal half year; and then dividing that result by the number of days in the fiscal year. The annualized expense ratios for the period were as follows:

GOLDMAN SACHS MUNICIPAL FIXED INCOME FUNDS
Statement Regarding Basis for Approval of Management Agreements (Unaudited)
     The Trustees oversee the management of Goldman Sachs Trust (the “Trust”), and review the investment performance and expenses of the investment funds covered by this Report (the “Funds”) at regularly scheduled meetings held during the Funds’ fiscal year. In addition, the Trustees determine annually whether to approve and continue the Trust’s investment management agreements (the “Management Agreements”) with Goldman Sachs Asset Management, L.P. (the “Investment Adviser”) for the Funds. The Management Agreements were most recently approved by the Trustees, including all of the Trustees who are not parties to the Management Agreements or “interested persons” (as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended) of any party thereto (the “Independent Trustees”), on June 15, 2006 (the “Annual Contract Meeting”).
     In addition, the Tennessee Municipal Fund is a newly-organized investment portfolio of the Trust that commenced investment operations on June 5, 2006. The Tennessee Municipal Fund is the accounting successor to the Tennessee Tax-Free Portfolio of First Funds, which was reorganized into the Tennessee Municipal Fund. In connection with the Tennessee Municipal Fund’s organization, the Trust’s Management Agreement with the Investment Adviser for the Tennessee Municipal Fund was approved by the Trustees, including all of the Independent Trustees, at a meeting held on November 2, 2005 (the “November Meeting”). The Management Agreement was subsequently re-approved by the Trustees, including all of the Independent Trustees, at the Annual Contract Meeting for the period ending June 30, 2007. (The November Meeting and the Annual Contract Meeting are sometimes referred to as the “Meetings.”)
     At the November Meeting, the Trustees reviewed the Management Agreement as it applied to the Tennessee Municipal Fund, including information regarding the terms of the Management Agreement; the nature, extent and quality of the Investment Adviser’s services; the fees and expenses to be paid by the Tennessee Municipal Fund; the Investment Adviser’s anticipated costs; the Investment Adviser’s potential economies of scale; the Investment Adviser’s proposal to voluntarily reimburse certain expenses of the Tennessee Municipal Fund that exceeded a specified level; other benefits to be derived by the Investment Adviser and its affiliates from their relationship with the Tennessee Municipal Fund; and a comparison of the Tennessee Municipal Fund’s fees and expenses with those paid by other similar mutual funds.
     In connection with the November Meeting, the Trustees received written materials and oral presentations, and were advised by their independent legal counsel regarding their responsibilities under applicable law. In evaluating the Management Agreement at the November Meeting, the Trustees relied upon their knowledge of the Investment Adviser resulting from their meetings and other interactions throughout the year.
     In connection with their approval of the Management Agreement for the Tennessee Municipal Fund at the November Meeting, the Trustees gave weight to various factors, but did not identify any particular factor as controlling their decision. As part of their review, the Trustees considered the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the Investment Adviser. In this regard, the Trustees considered both the investment advisory services and the other non-advisory services that would be provided by the Investment Adviser and its affiliates for the Tennessee Municipal Fund. These services included services as the Tennessee Municipal Fund’s transfer agent and distributor. In addition, affiliates of the Investment Adviser would receive compensation in connection with the execution of Fund’s portfolio securities transactions and sales loads on the sale of certain classes of shares offered by the Tennessee Municipal Fund. The Trustees concluded that the Investment Adviser was able to provide quality services to the Tennessee Municipal Fund. In this regard, the Trustees noted that, although the Tennessee Municipal Fund was new and had not been managed previously by the Investment Adviser, the Investment Adviser did have past experience in managing other municipal fixed income portfolios for the Trust. The Trustees believed that the investment returns of these other portfolios had been within a competitive range.
     The Board of Trustees also considered the contractual fee rates payable by the Tennessee Municipal Fund under the Management Agreement. In this regard, information on the fees paid by the Tennessee Municipal Fund and the Tennessee Municipal Fund’s projected total operating expense ratios were compared to similar information for mutual funds advised by other, unaffiliated investment management firms. The comparisons of the Funds’ fee rates and total operating expense ratios were compiled by a third-party provider of mutual fund data (the “Outside Data Provider”). More particularly, the analyses compared the Tennessee Municipal Fund’s management fee and projected expenses to a relevant peer group and category median. The Trustees believed that this information was useful in evaluating the reasonableness of the management fees payable by the Tennessee Municipal Fund.

GOLDMAN SACHS MUNICIPAL FIXED INCOME FUNDS
Statement Regarding Basis for Approval of Management Agreements (Unaudited) (continued)
     In addition, in connection with the approval of the Management Agreement at the November Meeting, the Board approved the breakpoints in the contractual management fee rate at the following annual percentages of the average daily net assets of the Tennessee Municipal Fund:
         
    Tennessee Municipal Fund
 
Up to $1 billion
    0.45 %
Next $1 billion
    0.41  
Over $2 billion
    0.39  
 
     In approving these fee breakpoints, the Trustees considered information regarding the Investment Adviser’s potential economies of scale, and whether the Tennessee Municipal Fund and its shareholders would participate in the benefits of these economies. In this regard, the Trustees considered the Tennessee Municipal Fund’s projected assets, the Investment Adviser’s anticipated expenses and the fee comparisons that had been provided. The Trustees noted again that the Tennessee Municipal Fund was new and that the costs of the Investment Adviser in providing its services, and the related profitability information, would be reviewed periodically by the Trustees. The Trustees agreed that the fee breakpoints were a way to ensure that benefits of scalability would be passed along to shareholders at the specified asset levels. The Trustees also noted the Investment Adviser’s voluntary undertaking to limit the Tennessee Municipal Fund’s total expense ratios (excluding certain expenses) to specified levels.
     At the November Meeting, the Trustees also considered the other benefits that would be derived by the Investment Adviser and its affiliates from the Tennessee Municipal Fund as stated above, including the fees received by them for transfer agency, distribution and brokerage services that may be received by the Investment Adviser in connection with the placement of brokerage transactions for the Tennessee Municipal Fund.
     After deliberation and consideration of the information provided, including the factors described above, the Trustees concluded at the November Meeting that the management fee payable by the Tennessee Municipal Fund was reasonable in light of the services to be provided by the Investment Adviser and the Tennessee Municipal Fund’s reasonably foreseeable asset levels, and that the Management Agreement should be approved.
     As mentioned above, all of the Funds’ Management Agreements were re-approved by the Trustees at the Annual Contract Meeting. To assist the Trustees in their deliberations at the Annual Contract Meeting, and in addition to the reviews of the Funds’ investment performance, expenses and other matters at other regularly scheduled meetings, the Trustees have a Contract Review Committee (the “Committee”) whose members include all of the Independent Trustees. The Committee held meetings on December 15, 2005, February 8, 2006 and May 10, 2006. At these Committee meetings, the Independent Trustees considered matters relating to the Management Agreements including: (a) the Funds’ investment performance; (b) the Funds’ management fee arrangements; (c) the Investment Adviser’s undertaking to reimburse certain expenses of the Funds that exceed specified levels; (d) the Investment Adviser’s potential economies of scale and the breakpoints implemented in 2005 for the fees payable by the Funds under the Management Agreements; (e) the relative expense levels of the Funds; (f) information on the advisory fees charged by the Investment Adviser to institutional accounts; (g) the Investment Adviser’s profitability with respect to the Trust and the Funds; (h) the quality of the non-advisory services provided to the Funds; (i) the statutory and regulatory requirements applicable to the approval and continuation of mutual fund investment management agreements; (j) an evaluation of the Trustees’ contract review process provided by an outside third party; and (k) information on the processes followed by the third party mutual fund data provider engaged as part of the Trustees’ contract review (the “Outside Data Provider”) in producing investment performance and expense comparisons for the Funds.
     At the Annual Contract Meeting, the Trustees reviewed the matters that were considered at the Committee meetings and also considered additional matters including: (a) a summary of fee concessions by the Investment Adviser and its affiliates with respect to the Goldman Sachs mutual funds since 2003; (b) the quality of the Investment Adviser’s services; (c) the structure, staff and capabilities of the Investment Adviser and its portfolio management teams; (d) the groups within the Investment Adviser that support the portfolio management teams, including the legal and compliance departments, the credit department, the valuation oversight group, the risk and performance analytics group, the business planning team and the technology group; (e) the Investment Adviser’s business continuity and disaster recovery planning; (f) the Investment Adviser’s financial resources and its ability to hire and retain talented personnel; (g) the fees received by the Investment Adviser’s affiliates from the Funds for transfer agency, securities lending, distribution, portfolio brokerage and other services; (h) the terms of the Management Agreements; (i) the administrative services provided under the Management Agreements,

including the nature and extent of the Investment Adviser’s oversight of the Funds’ other service providers including the custodian and fund accounting agent; and (j) the Investment Adviser’s policies addressing various types of potential conflicts of interest. At the Annual Contract Meeting, the Trustees also considered at further length the Funds’ investment performance, fees and expenses, including the Funds’ expense trends over time and the breakpoints in the contractual fee rates under the Management Agreements that were approved in 2005.
     In connection with the Committee meetings and the Annual Contract Meeting, the Trustees received written materials and oral presentations on the topics covered, and were advised by their independent legal counsel regarding their responsibilities under applicable law. Also, in conjunction with these meetings, the Trustees attended other sessions at which the Trustees reviewed the payment of Rule 12b-1 distribution and service fees by the Funds. Information was also provided to the Trustees relating to the Funds’ portfolio turnover rates, revenue sharing by the Investment Adviser, portfolio manager compensation and the alignment of the interests of the Funds and the portfolio managers, the number and types of accounts managed by the portfolio managers, and other matters. During the course of their deliberations, the Independent Trustees met in executive sessions without employees of the Investment Adviser or its affiliates present.
     The presentations made at the Contract Review Committee meetings and at the Annual Contract Meeting encompassed the Funds and other mutual fund portfolios for which the Board of Trustees has responsibility. While the Management Agreements for all of the Funds were approved at the same Annual Contract Meeting, the Trustees considered the applicable Management Agreements as it applied to each Fund separately.
     In evaluating the Management Agreements at the Annual Contract Meeting, the Trustees relied upon their knowledge, resulting from their meetings and other interactions throughout the year, of the Investment Adviser, its services and the Funds. At those meetings the Trustees received materials relating to the Investment Adviser’s investment management and other services under the Management Agreements, including: (a) information on the investment performance of the Funds in comparison to other mutual funds and benchmark performance indices; (b) general investment outlooks in the markets in which the Funds invest; (c) compliance reports; and (d) expenses borne by the Funds. In addition, the Trustees were provided with disclosure materials regarding the Goldman Sachs mutual funds and their expenses that were provided to investors who had invested in the Funds, as well as information on the Goldman Sachs mutual funds’ competitive universe and the broad range of other investment choices that are available to those investors.
     In connection with their approval of the Management Agreements, the Trustees gave weight to various factors, but did not identify any particular factor as controlling their decision. As part of their review, the Trustees considered the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the Investment Adviser. In this regard, the Trustees considered both the investment advisory services, and the other, non-advisory services, that are provided to the Funds by the Investment Adviser and its affiliates. These services include services as the Funds’ transfer agent, securities lending agent and distributor. In addition, affiliates of the Investment Adviser receive compensation in connection with the execution of the Funds’ portfolio securities transactions and sales loads on the sale of certain classes of shares offered by the Funds. The Trustees concluded that the Investment Adviser was both able to commit substantial financial and other resources to the operations of the Funds and had, in fact, continued to commit those resources in multiple areas including portfolio management, trading, technology, human resources, tax, treasury, legal, compliance, vendor oversight and risk management. The Trustees also believed that the Investment Adviser had made significant commitments to address regulatory compliance requirements applicable to the Funds and the Investment Adviser, including education and training initiatives.
     The Trustees also considered the investment performance of the Funds and the Investment Adviser. In this regard, the Trustees compared the investment performance of the Funds to the performance of other SEC-registered funds and to rankings and ratings issued by the Outside Data Provider. The Trustees also reviewed the Funds’ investment performance relative to their respective performance benchmarks. For Funds that had been in existence for the respective periods, this information on the Funds’ investment performance was provided for one, three, five and ten (where applicable) year periods. In addition, the Trustees considered the investment performance trends of the Funds over time, and reviewed the investment performance of the Funds in light of their respective investment objectives, policies and credit and duration parameters, as well as in light of periodic analyses of their respective quality and risk profiles. In addition, the Trustees considered whether the Funds had operated within their investment policies, and their record of compliance with their investment limitations. The Trustees believed that the Funds were providing investment performance within a competitive range for long-term investors and that the Funds that had commenced operations during the prior year or more recently (California Intermediate AMT-Free Municipal Fund, New York Intermediate AMT-Free Municipal Fund and Tennessee Municipal Fund) were providing acceptable performance in light of their respective investment policies.

Statement Regarding Basis for Approval of Management Agreements (Unaudited) (continued)
     The Board of Trustees also considered the contractual fee rates payable by the Funds under the Management Agreements. In this regard, the Trustees considered information on the services rendered by the Investment Adviser to the Funds, which included both advisory and administrative services that were directed to the needs and operations of the Funds as registered mutual funds. They also considered information that indicated that these mutual fund services differed in various significant respects from the services provided to the Investment Adviser’s institutional accounts, which generally paid lower fees. In addition, the fees paid by the Funds and the Funds’ total operating expense ratios (before and after voluntary fee waivers and expense reimbursements) were compared to similar information for mutual funds advised by other, unaffiliated investment management firms. Most of the comparisons of the Funds’ fee rates and total operating expense ratios were prepared by the Outside Data Provider.
     More particularly, the Trustees reviewed analyses prepared by the Outside Data Provider of the expense rankings of the Funds. The analyses provided a comparison of the Funds’ management fees to relevant peer groups and category universes; an expense analysis which compared each Fund’s expenses to a peer group and a category universe; and a five-year history comparing each Fund’s expenses to a category average. The analyses also compared the Funds’ transfer agency fees, custody and accounting fees and other expenses to peer groups and medians. In addition, the Trustees noted the Investment Adviser’s voluntary undertaking to limit the Funds’ total expense ratios (excluding certain expenses) to specified levels.
     The Board of Trustees also considered the breakpoints in the contractual fee rates under the Management Agreements for each of the Funds (other than the Tennessee Municipal Fund) that were approved in 2005, which had been implemented at the following annual percentages of the average daily net assets of the respective Funds:
                 
    Management Fee   Average Daily
Fund   Annual Rate   Net Assets
 
Short Duration Tax-Free Fund
    0.40 %   First $ 1 Billion  
      0.36 %   Next $ 1 Billion  
      0.34 %   Over $ 2 Billion  
 
California Intermediate AMT-Free Municipal Fund
    0.45 %   First $ 1 Billion  
      0.41 %   Next $ 1 Billion  
      0.39 %   Over $ 2 Billion  
 
New York Intermediate AMT-Free Municipal Fund
    0.45 %   First $ 1 Billion  
      0.41 %   Next $ 1 Billion  
      0.39 %   Over $ 2 Billion  
 
Municipal Income Fund
    0.55 %   First $ 1 Billion  
      0.50 %   Next $ 1 Billion  
      0.48 %   Over $ 2 Billion  
 
High Yield Municipal Fund
    0.55 %   First $ 2 Billion  
      0.50 %   Over $ 2 Billion  
 
     In addition, in connection with the re-approval of the Management Agreement for the Tennessee Municipal Fund, the Board considered the breakpoints in the contractual fee rate at the following annual percentages of the average daily net assets of the Tennessee Municipal Fund:
                 
    Management Fee   Average Daily
Fund   Annual Rate   Net Assets
 
Tennessee Municipal Fund
    0.45 %   First $ 1 Billion  
      0.41 %   Next $ 1 Billion  
      0.39 %   Over $ 2 Billion  
 
     In approving these fee breakpoints, the Trustees had reviewed information regarding the Investment Adviser’s potential economies of scale, and whether the Funds and their shareholders were participating in the benefits of these economies. In this regard, the Trustees considered the amount of assets in the Funds (projected assets in the case of the Tennessee Municipal Fund); the information provided by the Investment Adviser relating to the costs of the services provided by the Investment Adviser and its affiliates and the profits realized by them; and information comparing fee rates charged by the Investment
132

Statement Regarding Basis for Approval of Management Agreements (Unaudited) (continued)
Adviser with fee rates charged by other, unaffiliated investment managers to other mutual funds. Upon reviewing these matters again at the Annual Contract Meeting in 2006, the Trustees continued to believe that the fee breakpoints were a way to ensure that benefits of scalability would be passed along to shareholders at the specified asset levels.
     The Trustees also considered the other benefits derived by the Investment Adviser and its affiliates from the Funds as stated above, including the fees received by them for transfer agency, securities lending, distribution and brokerage services. The Trustees noted the reduction of the transfer agency fees on Class A, Class B and Class C Shares of the Funds in 2005. In addition, the Trustees reviewed the Investment Adviser’s pre-tax revenues and pre-tax margins with respect to the Trust and the Funds. In this regard the Trustees reviewed, among other things, profitability analyses and summaries, revenue and expense schedules and expense allocation methodologies, as well as a report of independent accountants regarding the results of certain agreed-upon procedures to verify expense allocation calculations that were designed to assist the Trustees in their evaluation of the Investment Adviser’s schedules of revenues and expenses. The Trustees considered the Investment Adviser’s revenues and margins both in absolute terms and in comparison to the information on the reported margins earned by other asset management firms.
     After deliberation and consideration of the information provided, including the factors described above, the Trustees concluded that the management fees paid by the Funds were reasonable in light of the services provided by the Investment Adviser, its costs and the Funds’ current and reasonably anticipated asset levels, and that the Management Agreements should be approved and continued.
