1 [This Page Intentionally Left Blank] 2 Message From the Chairman and Investment Advisor Dear Shareholders: We are pleased to send you this annual report for the 12 months ended July 31, 2001, a time that tested the patience of many equity investors, while most fixed-income shareholders were positively elated. It was also a year that proved, again, the value of portfolio diversification. As March 2000 dawned on Wall Street, stock investors, especially those owning shares of technology and telecommunications companies, were euphoric about the paper profits they had realized during the historic Bull Run of the market. Early that month, the Nasdaq Composite Index,/1/ home to most technology is- sues, reached an all-time high. Two weeks later, the S&P 500 Stock Index,/2/ a benchmark for the market as a whole, touched its highest levels ever. As we write this letter in early August 2001, such glories are simply footnotes in the stock market's volatile history. As of July 31, 2001, the S&P 500 Index lost 14.32%. Nasdaq had an even rougher time of it, plunging 46.19% during the fiscal year. Still, while many growth stocks, especially those in the technology and tele- communications sectors, retreated under the weight of unsustainable valuations and depressed earnings, other areas of the market prospered. Value stocks--for years, considered stodgy relics of a bygone, less technologically driven era-- regained their luster, and rewarded their faithful backers with handsome re- turns. Shareholders in a number of AmSouth's equity funds profited, as well. The AmSouth Value Fund, for example, had a splendid year. All four of our Stra- tegic Portfolios, whose managers shrewdly increased their allocation to the Value Fund as an underlying component, also did well. The AmSouth Select Equity Fund, which employs a "stable growth" style, produced a robust performance, ranking the Fund among the top 9% of all domestic equity mutual funds during the period. In contrast, for this period the Growth, Capital Growth and Mid Cap Funds--with their emphasis on technology stocks--experienced negative returns typical of the average mutual fund investing in the growth sector./3/ For all of the stock market's inconsistency over the last 12 months, the fixed- income arena was a haven for bond investors. Conditions were virtually perfect. Economic growth slowed dramatically, inflation remained benign, disillusioned equity investors fled to bonds for a measure of relative security and stabili- ty, and the Federal Reserve Board lowered short-term interest rates six times through July 31, 2001. All these elements produced a recipe for historically strong returns in nearly every type of fixed-income security, with the excep- tion of money market instruments, which perform better when short-term rates rise, not fall. So, what now? Without a doubt, the last 12 months have been unusually turbulent though not unprecedented, especially for equity investors who were spoiled by uncommonly strong returns in the last half of the 1990s. Bond investors have enjoyed the other side of these circumstances. Nevertheless, making money in the financial markets requires investors to look forward. With our eyes fixed on the horizon for the next six to 12 months, and beyond, we see signs that conditions could be changing for the better. Despite the lag- ging economy, worker productivity continues to be strong, indicating that gains created by new technologies over the last few years truly might be enduring, not transitory. In addition, corporate profits are not uniformly disappointing, especially outside the technology sector. The yield curve has returned to a positive slope, where longer bonds yield more than shorter securities. Whichever way the markets move, the last 12 months have reaffirmed the wisdom of using portfolio diversification to support your financial goals. We do this by allocating your assets among both stocks and bonds, and by owning shares of value equity funds as well as growth funds. While no investment strategy guar- antees success, history has shown us that diversification can potentially re- duce volatility, while producing positive price appreciation. In the months and years ahead, we will remain committed to helping you achieve your investment goals. We thank you for your past and future support. Sincerely, /s/ J David Huber J.

Sullivan President, AmSouth Investment Management Co., LLC Chief Investment Officer, AmSouth Bank Editor's note: This message and the re- ports that follow were written prior to the events of September 11, 2001. While it is far too early to assess the impact on the finan- cial sector, we join the nation in ex- tending our sympa- thies to those who were most deeply af- fected by the trage- dies of that day. /1/The Nasdaq Composite Index is a market capitalization price-only index that tracks the performance of domestic common stocks traded on the regular NASDAQ market as well as National Market System-traded foreign common stocks and ADR's. /2/The Standard & Poor's 500 Stock Index is an unmanaged index generally representative of the U.S. stock market as a whole.

PORTFOLIO MANAGERS' PERSPECTIVE "The AmSouth Value Fund uses a 'value investing' aproach. Rather than pursue hot stocks that are in high demand, we search for solid companies with good fundamentals that are available at attractive prices. By adhering to this investment approach through entire market cycles, we seek to achieve above average long-term results with less volatility than the overall market." [LOGO] Q&A Q. How did the Fund perform during the period? A. For the 12 months ended July 31, 2001, the AmSouth Value Fund produced a to- tal return of 21.10% (Class A Shares at NAV). In comparison, the S&P 500 Stock Index produced a -14.32% return, while the Lipper Multi-Cap Value Funds Index gained 14.03%.+ Q. What factors affected your performance? A. However we look at it, the Fund enjoyed a spectacular year. We not only rode the "value wave" to performance that far exceeded the negative return of the S&P 500 Stock Index, but we outperformed our value benchmark, as well. The speculative bubble that inflated prices in many technology and telecommunica- tions stocks damaged the overall market during the past year. At the same time, the value sector performed admirably. Value investing prospered precisely be- cause it does focus on fundamental valuations, as opposed to the false promise of future profits that was floated by many technology companies. The Fund profited from our energy holdings, several of our specialty chemical stocks and selected business equipment names. In addition, some of the technol- ogy stocks we own also did well. From our perspective, a "value" stock does not have to be a low-growth company; it just has to present us with good valuation. Some of the technology stocks we bought during the period included Keane, Inc. (1.30% of net assets), Computer Associates International, Inc. (3.00%), and Cabletron Systems, Inc. (3.29%).++ As of July 31, 2001, the Fund's top five holdings were Cabletron Systems, Inc. (3.29% of net assets), Washington Mutual, Inc. (3.23%), Marsh & McLennan Cos., Inc. (3.06%), Computer Associates International, Inc. (3.00%), and St. Paul Cos., Inc. (2.77%).++ Q. What is your outlook for the next six to 12 months? A. We do not try to guess which way the market is going to go. We do continue to believe that the next 12 months will be much like the last 12, in that it's going to be a stock picker's market. We produced above-average returns in the last year and we hope to continue our success going forward. + The Lipper Multi-Cap Value Funds Index consists of managed mutual funds that, by portfolio practice, invest in a variety of market capitalization ranges, without concentrating more than 75% of their equity assets in any one market capitalization range over an extended period of time. ++The Fund's portfolio composition is subject to change. 4 AmSouth Value Fund Value of a $10,000 Investment [CHART] AmSouth Value AmSouth Value AmSouth Value Fund Fund Fund S&P 500 (Class A Shares)* (Class

The performance of the AmSouth Value Fund is measured against the S&P 500 Stock Index, an unmanaged index generally representative of the U.S. stock market as a whole. The index does not reflect the deduction of fees associ- ated with a mutual fund, such as investment management fees. The Fund's per- formance does reflect the deduction of fees for these value-added services. Investors cannot invest directly in an index, although they can invest in its underlying securities. During the period shown, the Advisor waived and/or re- imbursed fees for various expenses. Had these waivers and/or reimbursements not been in effect, performance quoted would have been lower. /1/Performance for the Class B and Trust Shares, which commenced operations on 9/3/97 and 9/2/97, respectively, are based on the historical perfor- mance of the Class A Shares (without sales charge) prior to that date. The historical performance for the Class B Shares has been adjusted to reflect the higher 12b-1 fees and the contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC). Effective 12/1/99, the Classic and Premier Shares were renamed Class A and Trust Shares, respectively. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Investment return and net asset value will fluctuate, so that an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than the original cost. 5 AmSouth Growth Fund Portfolio Manager Dennis A.

PORTFOLIO MANAGER'S PERSPECTIVE "The AmSouth Growth Fund uses a well defined and rigorously proven investment process to select domestic large capitalization growth stocks. We buy companies we feel can sustain above average growth in operating earnings per share. We sell a stock when we feel it is overvalued or when it experiences sustained deterioration in its earnings or fundamentals." [LOGO] Q&A Q. How did the Fund perform during the period? A. For the 12 months ended July 31, 2001, the Fund produced a total return of -32.44% (Class A Shares at NAV). In comparison, the S&P 500 Stock Index pro- duced a -14.32% return. Q. What factors affected your performance? A. The past year was difficult for the market in general, and especially tough on growth stocks. The Fund's performance was hurt by three sectors in particu- lar: consumer cyclicals, financials, and technology. Each area had a signifi- cant, negative impact on our portfolio, which offset the success we enjoyed from our health-care, utility and consumer staples holdings. We are, however, long-term investors with investment horizons that stretch out three to five years, and longer. With this in mind, we have viewed selected de- clines in the market as excellent buying opportunities; we continue to seek out attractive companies in industries that have been beaten down in recent months. Specifically, we think technology continues to be an area that remains high on our list. We are positioning the technology portion of the portfolio to capi- talize on what we anticipate to be the next move. It is also important to point out that our investments in technology, as well as in other sectors, are extremely diversified. We have exposure to semiconduc- tor, software, network and Internet-related companies. The same broad diversi- fication is evident in our financial holdings, which include brokerage compa- nies, regional banks, money center banks and credit card companies. As of July 31, 2001, the Fund's top five holdings were MBNA Corp. (3.30% of net assets), Boeing Co. (3.23%), AOL-Time Warner, Inc. (3.20%), Capital One Finan- cial Corp. (3.10%), and Lehman Brothers Holdings, Inc. (2.65%).++ Q. What is your outlook for the next six to 12 months? A. Going forward, we believe the market will do better than it did over the last 12 months. Obviously, there is a great deal of pessimism among many in- vestors related to the economic environment and corporate profits; these con- cerns are no surprise to anyone, in light of the Fed's tightening throughout 2000. However, at some point in the near future, we will look back at this par- ticular juncture and realize that circumstances were not as dire as stock prices are suggesting. We anticipate that the economic backdrop should improve; and the liquidity that is being provided by the Fed could help the domestic economy. This should be positive for stocks in general, and we believe that the areas of the market on which we are focusing have the opportunity to do well. ++The Fund's portfolio composition is subject to change. 6 AmSouth Growth Fund Value of a $10,000 Investment [CHART] AmSouth Growth AmSouth Growth Fun AmSouth Growth Fund Fund Fund Fund S&P 500 (Class A Shares)* (Class B Shares)** (Trust Shares) Stock Index 8/3/1997 $ 9,452 $10,000 $10,000 $10,000 8/31/1997 9,026 9,540 9,550 9,440 9/30/1997 9,499 10,040 10,050 9,957 10/31/1997 9,093 9,600 9,620 9,624 11/30/1997 9,338 9,860 9,890 10,070 12/31/1997 9,546 10,070 10,110 10,242 1/31/1998 9,584 10,110 10,150 10,356 2/28/1998 10,425 10,980 11,040 11,103 3/31/1998 10,888 11,470 11,540 11,671 4/30/1998 10,851 11,420 11,500 11,789 5/31/1998 10,595 11,140 11,230 11,586 6/30/1998 11,115 11,690 11,790 12,057 7/31/1998 10,983 11,540 11,650 11,928 8/31/1998 8,885 9,330 9,430 10,206 9/30/1998 9,820 10,300 10,410 10,857 10/31/1998 10,709 11,230 11,360 11,741 11/30/1998 11,399 11,950 12,100 12,453 12/31/1998 12,802 13,404 13,594 13,170 1/31/1999 13,497 14,120 14,330 13,720 2/28/1999 12,678 13,263 13,463 13,294 3/31/1999 13,135 13,727 13,947 13,826 4/30/1999 13,040 13,626 13,856 14,361 5/31/1999 12,525 13,071 13,302 14,022 6/30/1999 13,754 14,351 14,622 14,800 7/31/1999 13,373 13,958 14,219 14,338 8/31/1999 13,249 13,827 14,098 14,267 9/30/1999 13,116 13,676 13,957 13,876 10/31/1999 14,240 14,845 15,156 14,754 11/30/1999 14,640 15,248 15,579 15,057 12/31/1999 15,162 15,780 16,131 15,941 1/31/2000 14,500 15,079 15,431 15,140 2/29/2000 15,132 15,728 16,110 14,853 3/31/2000 16,604 17,244 17,677 16,306 4/30/2000 16,120 16,742 17,176 15,816 5/31/2000 14,944 15,508 15,922 15,491 6/30/2000 15,270 15,832 16,267 15,873 7/31/2000 14,747 15,278 15,713 15,625 8/31/2000 16,149 16,721 17,207 16,596 9/30/2000 15,201 15,728 16,204 15,719 10/31/2000 15,043 15,561 16,037 15,653 11/30/2000 12,396 12,810 13,206 14,419 12/31/2000 12,320 12,731 13,150 14,489 1/31/2001 13,030 13,149 13,899 15,004 2/28/2001 10,761 11,109 11,491 13,637 3/31/2001 9,481 9,785 10,127 12,773 4/30/2001 10,926 11,258 11,665 13,765 5/31/2001 10,584 10,893 11,290 13,857 6/30/2001 10,571 10,879 11,277 13,520 7/31/2001 9,962 10,017 10,635 13,388 Average Annual Total Return As of Inception 1 Since July 31, 2001 Date Year Inception -------------------------------------------------------- Class A Shares* 8/3/97 -36.16% -0.09% -------------------------------------------------------- Class B Shares** 9/3/97/1/ -35.54% 0.04% -------------------------------------------------------- Trust Shares 9/2/97/1/ -32.32% 1.56% -------------------------------------------------------- *Reflects maximum 5.50% sales charge. **Reflects applicable contingent deferred sales charge (maximum 5.00%).

The performance of the AmSouth Growth Fund is measured against the S&P 500 Stock Index, an unmanaged index generally representative of the U.S. stock market as a whole. The index does not reflect the deduction of fees associ- ated with a mutual fund, such as investment management fees. The Fund's per- formance does reflect the deduction of fees for these value-added services. Investors cannot invest directly in an index, although they can invest in its underlying securities. During the period shown, the Advisor waived and/or reimbursed fees for various expenses. Had these waivers and/or reim- bursements not been in effect, performance quoted would have been lower. /1/Performance for the Class B and Trust Shares, which commenced operations on 9/3/97 and 9/2/97, respectively, are based on the historical perfor- mance of the Class A Shares (without sales charge) prior to that date. The historical performance for the Class B Shares has been adjusted to reflect the higher 12b-1 fees and the contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC). Effective 12/1/99, the Classic and Premier Shares were renamed Class A and Trust Shares, respectively. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Investment return and net asset value will fluctuate, so that an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than the original cost. 7 AmSouth Capital Growth Fund Portfolio Manager Charles E.

PORTFOLIO MANAGER'S PERSPECTIVE "As a growth-oriented fund, the Capital Growth Fund focuses on industry leaders with high earnings per share. We generally look for annual earnings growth of 15% or higher. After identifying strong themes, such as technology or health care, we select companies that have financial strength, good return on equity, reasonable debt-to-equity ratios and strong revenue growth. We apply sell discipline through price targets and downside alerts." [LOGO] Q&A Q. How did the Fund perform during the period? A. For the 12 months ended July 31, 2001, the Fund's total return was -21.27% (Class A Shares at NAV). In comparison, the S&P 500 Stock Index produced a -14.32% return, and the Lipper Growth Funds Index returned -22.92%.+ Q. What factors affected your performance? A. Several factors affected our performance: On one side was the disaster in technology and telecommunication stocks, and on the other side, most sectors-- apart from technology and telecommunications--produced a modestly positive re- turn. Not surprisingly, what hurt the Fund was our weighting in technology. At the end of the period, we were overweighted in technoloy; this reflected our growth style of investing and our belief that select tech- nology issues offer attractive, long-term potential. On the positive side, the Fund profited from overweightings in health-care, capital industrials and consumer discretionary (specialty retail) names. Those three areas did well for us during the period. As of July 31, 2001, the Fund's top five holdings were Pfizer, Inc. (2.90% of net assets), Forest Laboratories, Inc. (2.88%), Cardinal Health, Inc. (2.81%), Citigroup, Inc. (2.68%) and Stryker Corp. (2.65%).++ Q. What is your outlook for the next six to 12 months? A. We are optimistic. The conditions we see in the stock market today are com- pletely opposite to what we had 12 months ago. First, instead of higher inter- est rates in our faces, we have significantly lower rates, which should stimu- late the economy and lead to higher stock prices. Second, a year ago, a tax cut was only a possibility, and now we have it. And third, energy prices are much lower than they were in the summer of 2000; the reduction in energy prices is like putting money in the consumer's pocket. The weakness in the economy has been confined pretty much to the manufacturing sector, specifically technology. The consumer has been holding up well, contin- uing to spend. We believe consumer spending will remain strong, particularly with the tax cut proceeds now available for spending. By year-end, we expect to see firm evidence of an economic recovery, though the technology sector might take another six months to get back on track. + The Lipper Growth Funds Index consists of managed mutual funds that nor- mally invest in companies with long-term earnings expected to grow signifi- cantly faster than the earnings of the stocks represented in the major un- managed stock indices. ++The Fund's portfolio composition is subject to change. 8 AmSouth Capital Growth Fund Value of a $10,000 Investment [CHART] AmSouth AmSouth AmSouth Capital Capital Capital Growth Fund Growth

Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Investment return and net asset value will fluctuate, so that an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than the original cost. 9 AmSouth Large Cap Fund Portfolio Manager Ronald E. Lindquist Senior Vice President AmSouth Bank AmSouth Investment Management Company, LLC Ron has more than 30 years of investment management experience. He has a master's degree in management from Florida International University and a B.S. in finance from Florida State University. PORTFOLIO MANAGER'S PERSPECTIVE "The AmSouth Large Cap Fund is managed in a classic large-cap growth style. Our goal is to outperform the S&P 500 over multiple market cycles. We look for industry leaders that have relatively predictable 3-to-5 year earnings streams. We select large-company stocks with superior earnings rates and appropriate price/earnings ratios. We sell when a stock's relative price/earnings levels are well in excess of the market or when a significant earnings stream deterioration is in forecast." [LOGO] Q&A Q. How did the Fund perform during the period? A. For the 12 months ended July 31, 2001, the Fund's total return was -11.72% (Class A Shares at NAV). In comparison, the S&P's 500 Stock Index produced a -14.32% return. Q. What factors affected your performance? A. This was a very challenging period for the market as a whole, and for large- cap growth stocks in particular. Nonetheless, although we are classic growth managers, and despite the fact that we bought more technology shares during the period--when the technology sector was languishing--we were able to preserve shareholder value, relative to our benchmark. Our relatively good performance was due partly to good fortune and partly to judicious stock selection in the sectors we favored. For example, we benefited from our significant holdings among consumer discretionary and consumer staple stocks. We did well with Philip Morris Cos., Inc. (0.74% of net assets), along with health care names such as Johnson & Johnson (4.39%), Abbott Laboratories (2.61%), and American Home Products Corp. (1.96%).++ During the last six months, we sold our modest position in Heinz and added some new holdings to the portfolio: Citigroup, Inc. (0.41%), AFLAC, Inc. (0.48%), Bristol-Myers Squibb Co. (1.15%), and General Dynamics Corp. (0.98%), and with these changes, the Fund now owns 69 stocks.++ As of July 31, 2001, the Fund's top five holdings were Johnson & Johnson (4.39% of net assets), IBM Corp. (3.41%), Merck & Co., Inc. (3.31%), Home Depot, Inc. (2.86%), and Schering-Plough Corp. (2.85%).++ Q. What is your outlook for the next six to 12 months? A. Looking forward, we believe it's going to be some time before the gross do- mestic product growth rate perks up to the level we experienced the last few years. However, on the positive side, we do not expect interest rates or in- flation to be a problem any time soon. From our point of view, the overall en- vironment looks pretty good, except for the lack of "visibility" of earnings, especially in the technology sector. Investors' lack of confidence in future earnings could continue to be a drag on stocks for several more calendar quar- ters. When investor confidence improves and the market does recover, our sig- nificant technology exposure should greatly benefit our investors, but the wait seems just maddening. ++The Fund's portfolio composition is subject to change. 10 AmSouth Large Cap Fund Value of a $10,000 Investment [CHART] AmSouth AmSouth AmSouth Large Cap Large Cap Large Cap Fund (Class Fund (Class Fund (Trust S&P 500 A Shares)* B Shares) Shares) Stock Index 8/3/1992 $ 9,452 $10,000 $10,000 $10,000 8/31/1992 9,329 9,862 9,870 9,795 9/30/1992 9,440 9,965 9,988 9,910 10/31/1992 9,526 10,046 10,078 9,945 11/30/1992 9,924 10,461 10,500 10,283 12/31/1992 9,980 10,507 10,559 10,410 1/31/1993 9,961 10,484 10,539 10,497 2/28/1993 10,057 10,576 10,640 10,640 3/31/1993 10,129 10,645 10,716 10,864 4/30/1993 9,746 10,230 10,311 10,601 5/31/1993 10,062 10,553 10,646 10,885 6/30/1993 9,881 10,357 10,454 10,917 7/31/1993 9,823 10,288 10,393 10,873 8/31/1993 10,179 10,645 10,769 11,286 9/30/1993 9,943 10,392 10,519 11,199 10/31/1993 10,376 10,841 10,978 11,431 11/30/1993 10,415 10,864 11,019 11,322 12/31/1993 10,539 10,991 11,150 11,459 1/31/1994 10,704 11,152 11,325 11,848 2/28/1994 10,558 10,991 11,171 11,527 3/31/1994 10,135 10,541 10,723 11,024 4/30/1994 10,174 10,576 10,764 11,165 5/31/1994 10,262 10,657 10,857 11,349 6/30/1994 9,977 10,346 10,555 11,071 7/31/1994 10,124 10,495 10,711 11,434 8/31/1994 10,586 10,968 11,200 11,903 9/30/1994 10,379 10,737 10,981 11,612 10/31/1994 10,764 11,129 11,388 11,873 11/30/1994 10,527 10,876 11,137 11,440 12/31/1994 10,726 11,071 11,348 11,610 1/31/1995 11,047 11,394 11,687 11,911 2/28/1995 11,427 11,774 12,090 12,375 3/31/1995 11,714 12,062 12,393 12,740 4/30/1995 12,075 12,431 12,776 13,116 5/31/1995 12,387 12,742 13,106 13,640 6/30/1995 12,661 13,007 13,396 13,957 7/31/1995 13,126 13,479 13,887 14,419 8/31/1995 12,964 13,295 13,716 14,456 9/30/1995 13,561 13,894 14,347 15,066 10/31/1995 13,854 14,182 14,657 15,012 11/30/1995 14,350 14,689 15,182 15,671 12/31/1995 14,479 14,804 15,319 15,973 1/31/1996 15,091 15,415 15,966 16,516 2/29/1996 15,280 15,599 16,167 16,670 3/31/1996 15,024 15,323 15,896 16,830 4/30/1996 15,236 15,530 16,120 17,078 5/31/1996 15,564 15,853 16,466 17,519 6/30/1996 15,562 15,829 16,465 17,585 7/31/1996 14,894 15,138 15,758 16,808 8/31/1996 15,138 15,369 16,016 17,163 9/30/1996 16,137 16,371 17,073 18,130 10/31/1996 16,201 16,429 17,140 18,629 11/30/1996 17,475 17,707 18,489 20,037 12/31/1996 17,031 17,235 18,019 19,640 1/31/1997 18,119 18,329 19,170 20,867 2/28/1997 18,152 18,341 19,205 21,031 3/31/1997 17,498 17,673 18,513 20,167 4/30/1997 18,752 18,917 19,839 21,370 5/31/1997 19,842 20,012 20,993 22,672 6/30/1997 20,663 20,818 21,861 23,689 7/31/1997 22,377 22,523 23,675 25,573 8/31/1997 21,220 21,348 22,451 24,140 9/30/1997 22,166 22,281 23,451 25,461 10/31/1997 21,520 21,613 22,769 24,611 11/30/1997 22,811 22,903 24,134 25,750 12/31/1997 23,150 23,226 24,493 26,193 1/31/1998 23,767 23,825 25,146 26,482 2/28/1998 25,366 25,415 26,837 28,392 3/31/1998 26,087 26,094 27,600 29,847 4/30/1998 26,297 26,290 27,822 30,147 5/31/1998 25,910 25,887 27,413 29,629 6/30/1998 27,185 27,143 28,761 30,832 7/31/1998 27,118 27,051 28,691 30,504 8/31/1998 23,927 23,848 25,315 26,100 9/30/1998 25,568 25,472 27,051 27,765 10/31/1998 27,771 27,638 29,381 30,024 11/30/1998 29,607 29,447 31,324 31,845 12/31/1998 31,917 31,731 33,758 33,678 1/31/1999 33,470 33,252 35,401 35,086 2/28/1999 32,265 32,042 34,126 33,996 3/31/1999 32,806 32,549 34,697 35,357 4/30/1999 32,620 32,342 34,501 36,725 5/31/1999 32,076 31,777 33,925 35,858 6/30/1999 34,328 33,978 36,307 37,848 7/31/1999 33,771 33,402 35,718 36,666 8/31/1999 33,748 33,356 35,694 36,485 9/30/1999 32,994 32,584 34,895 35,485 10/31/1999 34,269 33,828 36,257 37,730 11/30/1999 36,112 35,614 38,194 38,506 12/31/1999 37,933 37,373 40,118 40,765 1/31/2000 36,714 36,147 38,829 38,716 2/29/2000 35,712 35,137 37,784 37,984 3/31/2000 38,305 37,656 40,518 41,699 4/30/2000 38,576 37,898 40,804 40,445 5/31/2000 38,305 37,602 40,518 39,615 6/30/2000 39,646 38,895 41,951 40,592 7/31/2000 38,102 37,359 40,317 39,957 8/31/2000 39,708 38,916 42,031 42,439 9/30/2000 38,328 37,527 40,571 40,199 10/31/2000 38,932 38,100 41,210 40,029 11/30/2000 37,293 36,468 39,491 36,873 12/31/2000 37,092 36,253 39,279 37,053 1/31/2001 37,647 36,775 39,866 38,368 2/28/2001 34,904 34,071 36,981 34,873 3/31/2001 32,384 31,589 34,299 32,665 4/30/2001 34,429 33,565 36,463 35,200 5/31/2001 34,920 34,024 36,999 35,436 6/30/2001 33,462 32,569 35,456 34,575 7/31/2001 33,636 32,727 35,641 34,236 The Class B contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC) is not included in the above graph, since the performance is for more than six years and the CDSC would no longer apply.

First, we identify major demand trends that present powerful investment opportunities. Then, we select companies that are best positioned to benefit from these trends. Before a company is selected, our analysts conduct extensive analysis of the business and its associated risks. The outcome of this process is a portfolio invested in a relatively small number of highly profitable companies." [LOGO] Q&A Q. How did the Fund perform during the period? A. For the 12 months ended July 31, 2001, the Fund's total return was -27.65% (Class A Shares at NAV). In comparison, the Russell MidCap(R) Growth Index pro- duced a -31.81% return. Q. What factors affected your performance? A. While our overall performance for this period was disappointing, we did outperform our benchmark by being underweighted, relative to the index, in the shares of technology and health care companies. Traditionally, these two sec- tors have very high valuations, so they were hit particularly hard during the period as valuations corrected almost across the board. Keeping our exposure to technology and health care relatively low was a con- scious effort. In the case of technology companies, we felt that the fallout from the "dot-com" implosion--for a growth-oriented fund--would work its way up and down the supply chain with a far-reaching impact on the semiconductor, telecommunication equipment, and networking businesses. In health care, we stayed away from biotechnology companies. We are primarily interested in companies with above-average revenue and earnings growth, which prevents us from owning most of the biotech names. We have enjoyed very good results from Forest Laboratories, Inc. (4.16% of net assets), a well-positioned pharmaceutical company that is marketing a new drug for depression. Varian Med- ical Systems, Inc. (3.82%), which has developed a promising treatment for can- cer, also has performed well for us. Our holdings of the financial-services stocks, were profitable as they were big beneficiaries of lower interest rates. Nonetheless, the last year was a difficult one for growth-oriented funds, and we did not escape the strong negative pull of the market on growth stocks. We are, however, long-term investors with investment horizons that stretch out three to five years and longer. We continue to seek out attractive companies that will deliver solid returns over a market cycle.++ As of July 31, 2001, the Fund's top five holdings were Laboratory Corporation of America (4.81%), Eclipsys Corp. (4.46%), Forest Laboratories, Inc. (4.16%), Microchip Technology, Inc. (3.95%) and Varian Medical Systems, Inc. (3.82%).++ Q. What is your outlook for the next six to 12 months? A. We believe that corporate profits will continue to decline, with the economy not starting to improve until the first calendar quarter of 2002. However, while we are not economic prognosticators, we feel that the downside for the stock market is limited. As has been the case in recent months, this will be a stock picker's market, with sector rotation continuing to be swift. We will re- main focused on companies that we believe are capable of delivering good oper- ating results. ++The Fund's portfolio composition is subject to change. 12 AmSouth Mid Cap Fund Value of a $10,000 Investment [CHART]

The performance of the AmSouth Mid Cap Fund is measured against the Russell MidCap(R) Growth Index, an unmanaged index representative of the performance of a basket of more than 430 mid-cap growth stocks. The index does not re- flect the deduction of fees associated with a mutual fund, such as investment management fees. The Fund's performance does reflect the deduction of fees for these value-added services. Investors cannot invest directly in an index, although they can invest in its underlying securities. During the period shown, the Advisor waived and/or reimbursed fees for various expenses. Had these waivers and/or reimbursements not been in effect, performance quoted would have been lower. The total returns reflect the performance from 5/4/99 to 3/12/00 of the ISG Mid-Cap Fund, an open-end investment company that was predecessor to the AmSouth Mid Cap Fund. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Investment return and net asset value will fluctuate, so that an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than the original cost. 13 AmSouth Small Cap Fund+ Portfolio Manager Dean McQuiddy, CFA Principal and Director of Equity Investments Sawgrass Asset Management, LLC (sub-advisor) Dean McQuiddy, Portfolio Manager to the AmSouth Small Cap Fund, has 19 years of experience in investment management and a B.S. in finance. He created and managed the small- cap growth product at Barnett Capital Advisors for 11 years. PORTFOLIO MANAGER'S PERSPECTIVE "For the AmSouth Small Cap Fund, we use a disciplined investment process to identify 60 to 80 fundamentally attractive small companies that share certain attributes: above-market sales and earnings growth, increasing estimates of future earnings and reasonable valuations. We aim to buy these companies in the early stages of their growth--before their stocks get overvalued in the marketplace." [LOGO] Q&A Q. How did the Fund perform during the period? A. For the 12 months ended July 31, 2001, the Fund produced a total return of - 10.33% (Class A Shares at NAV). In comparison, the Russell 2000(R) Growth Index produced a -23.31% return. Q. What factors affected your performance? A. Over the last 12 months, we were challenged by a very tough environment for most types of growth stocks, especially small caps. We were not immune to these market realities despite the outperformance of our benchmark. We are in the middle or, hopefully, close to the end, of a true bear market. Thanks to some strong stock selection, we were able to keep losses modest on a relative basis. Factors that benefited the Fund included our significant underweighting in technology, a sector that fell precipitously during the period; only about 15% of the portfolio was invested in technology stocks, compared to our benchmark's 30% technology weighting. More specifically, we had no exposure to Internet and telecommunications equipment stocks, and managed to avoid the massive losses suffered by those areas, each of which was down more than 70% for the year. We primarily seek small companies, which are profitable, and whose earnings growth appears to be unusually strong and attractive. We believe this invest- ment discipline enabled us to reduce risk. We were also helped by solid gains in such consumer cyclical areas as retail, homebuilders, and education service companies. As of July 31, 2001, the Fund's top five holdings were Career Education Corp. (3.34% of net assets), Pharmaceutical Product Development, Inc. (3.20%), New York Community Bancorp, Inc. (2.94%), First Health Group Corp. (2.91%) and AdvancePCS (2.76%).++ Q. What is your outlook for the next six to 12 months? A. The Fed is working hard to provide liquidity, and we believe they will win this battle. Historically, when the Fed has cut rates as they have done this year, stocks in general, and small stocks in particular, have risen over the next 12 months. Overall, we are encouraged that stocks with positive earnings are still selling at a discount to the market, despite higher, historical and projected earnings growth rates. We believe that this is a very attractive sec- tor going forward. + Small-capitalization funds typically carry additional risks since smaller companies generally have a higher risk of failure. Historically, smaller companies' stocks have experienced a greater degree of market volatility than large company stocks on average. ++The Fund's portfolio composition is subject to change. 14 AmSouth Small Cap Fund [CHART] Value of a $10,000 Investment

Previously, he was affiliated with Federated Investments and Mellon Bank. PORTFOLIO MANAGER'S PERSPECTIVE "With the AmSouth Equity Income Fund, we try to reduce risk through a disciplined portfolio construction limited, under normal conditions, to 50 stocks. Then we select the most attractive securities on a risk/reward basis in each sector. Rather than trying to time the market or guess which sector may offer the greatest return, we put our emphais on investing in what we believe are the best-yielding, best dividend-growing securities, sector by sector." [LOGO] Q&A Q. How did the Fund perform during the period? A. For the 12 months ended July 31, 2001, the Fund's total return was -12.96% (Class A Shares at NAV). In comparison, the S&P 500 Index produced a -14.32% return, and the Lipper Equity Income Funds Index returned 6.97%.+ Q. What factors affected your performance? A. The last 12 months, really the last 18 months, have been a true bear market in every sense of the term. Technology, telecommunications, and a majority of other industrial companies continued to come under pressure from an economic slowdown, and a tight monetary policy, although the Fed did reverse course and has eased interest rates considerably since the first of the year. Clearly, we have had a bear market in a large segment of the U.S. stock market. It is now apparent that the S&P 500 Stock Index is not immune, and neither were we. In hindsight, the reason we did not outperform our Lipper Equity Income bench- mark was that we owned good companies, run by good managers, but we held them longer than we should have; fundamentally, the companies were doing very well, but their stock prices were overvalued relative to the marketplace. What differentiates us from a lot of our peers in the equity income sector, is that we are sector-neutral to the S&P 500, rather than concentrating simply on value-oriented companies. Our goal is to provide shareholders with market per- formance, while delivering above-average income and below-average risk. Over the last three years, we have achieved this goal. During the most recent 12 months, however, the classic equity income fund--which buys stocks based on yield--profited from gains in such high-yield sectors as financials, utilities and energy. Being sector-neutral, we were not overweighted in these sectors, and this in turn hurt performance during the period. As of July 31, 2001, the Fund's top five holdings Citigroup, Inc., common shares (3.17% of net assets); Washington Mutual, Inc., convertible shares (2.82%); L-3 Communications, Inc., convertible bond (2.42%); Exxon Mobil Corp., common shares (2.40%); and EOG Resources, convertible shares (2.39%).++ Q. What is your outlook for the next six to 12 months? A. We believe the economy will begin to show some recovery in the beginning of 2002, evident by a couple of positive signs on the horizon. One is that there are many healthy paradoxes in the stock market and the economy; one of those paradoxes is that whenever industrial production falls, the stock market usu- ally stages a powerful rally over the next 12 months. We are already seeing signs that companies are making bottoms in announcing bad news and building on a base for future growth. Do not underestimate the resolve of corporate America to respond to changing economic realities. + The Lipper Equity Income Funds Index is an index comprised of managed mu- tual funds that seek relatively high current income and growth of income through investing 65% or more of their portfolio in dividend-paying equity securities. ++The Fund's portfolio composition is subject to change. 16 AmSouth Equity Income Fund Value of a $10,000 Investment [CHART] AmSouth AmSouth AmSouth Equity Equity Equity Income Income Income Fund Fund Fund S&P 500 (Class A (Class (Trust Stock Shares)* B Shares)** Shares) Index 3/20/1997 $ 9,452 $10,000 $10,000 $10,000 3/31/1997 9,293 9,829 9,832 9,589 4/30/1997 9,618 10,171 10,175 10,162 5/31/1997 10,168 10,742 10,758 10,780 6/30/1997 10,482 11,063 11,090 11,264 7/31/1997 11,136 11,745 11,781 12,160 8/31/1997 10,805 11,384 11,432 11,478 9/30/1997 11,291 11,871 11,948 12,107 10/31/1997 10,878 11,434 11,514 11,703 11/30/1997 11,129 11,693 11,781 12,244 12/31/1997 11,331 11,898 11,999 12,455 1/31/1998 11,457 12,025 12,134 12,592 2/28/1998 12,221 12,812 12,935 13,501 3/31/1998 12,664 13,271 13,407 14,192 4/30/1998 12,635 13,234 13,390 14,335 5/31/1998 12,351 12,929 13,092 14,088 6/30/1998 12,394 12,967 13,140 14,661 7/31/1998 11,947 12,490 12,669 14,504 8/31/1998 10,428 10,901 11,061 12,411 9/30/1998 10,839 11,314 11,488 13,202 10/31/1998 11,634 12,139 12,345 14,276 11/30/1998 12,383 12,914 13,142 15,142 12/31/1998 12,707 13,244 13,489 16,014 1/31/1999 13,113 13,655 13,912 16,683 2/28/1999 12,718 13,235 13,506 16,165 3/31/1999 13,050 13,583 13,862 16,812 4/30/1999 13,586 14,124 14,435 17,463 5/31/1999 13,231 13,749 14,048 17,050 6/30/1999 13,911 14,449 14,785 17,997 7/31/1999 13,640 14,156 14,497 17,435 8/31/1999 13,601 14,106 14,459 17,348 9/30/1999 13,289 13,782 14,141 16,873 10/31/1999 14,234 14,738 15,137 17,941 11/30/1999 14,647 15,158 15,580 18,309 12/31/1999 15,854 16,402 16,882 19,384 1/31/2000 16,049 16,589 17,090 18,410 2/29/2000 16,541 17,101 17,617 18,061 3/31/2000 17,276 17,849 18,406 19,828 4/30/2000 16,726 17,260 17,810 19,231 5/31/2000 16,271 16,778 17,328 18,837 6/30/2000 16,889 17,409 18,000 19,301 7/31/2000 16,248 16,738 17,331 18,999 8/31/2000 17,928 18,454 19,112 20,180 9/30/2000 17,017 17,505 18,143 19,114 10/31/2000 16,466 16,938 17,558 19,033 11/30/2000 14,741 15,145 15,723 17,533 12/31/2000 15,624 16,049 16,665 17,619 1/31/2001 16,181 16,606 17,261 18,244 2/28/2001 14,827 15,210 15,820 16,582 3/31/2001 13,986 14,334 14,925 15,532 4/30/2001 14,954 15,323 15,959 16,737 5/31/2001 15,068 15,431 16,095 16,850 6/30/2001 14,312 14,639 15,278 16,440 7/31/2001 14,142 14,255 15,098 16,279 Average Annual Total Return As of Inception 1 Since July 31, 2001 Date Year Inception -------------------------------------------------------- Class A Shares* 3/20/97 -17.76% 8.26% -------------------------------------------------------- Class B Shares** 9/3/97/1/ -17.93% 8.46% -------------------------------------------------------- Trust Shares 9/2/97/1/ -12.88% 9.90% -------------------------------------------------------- *Reflects maximum 5.50% sales charge. **Reflects applicable contingent deferred sales charge (maximum 5.00%).

The Fund's performance does reflect the deduction of fees for these value-added servic- es. Investors cannot invest directly in an index, although they can invest in its underlying securities. During the period shown, the Advisor waived and/or reimbursed fees for various expenses. Had these waivers and/or reimbursements not been in effect, performance quoted would have been lower. /1/Performance for the Class B and Trust Shares, which commenced operations on 9/3/97 and 9/2/97, respectively, are based on the historical performance of the Class A Shares (without sales charge) prior to that date. The his- torical performance for the Class B Shares has been adjusted to reflect the higher 12b-1 fees and the contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC). Effective 12/1/99, the Classic and Premier Shares were renamed Class A and Trust Shares, respectively. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Investment return and net asset value will fluctuate, so that an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than the original cost. 17 AmSouth Balanced Fund Portfolio Managers Richard H.

PORTFOLIO MANAGER PERSPECTIVE "The AmSouth Balanced Fund is a diversified fund that offers investors a simple and easy way to balance their investments in stock as well as in bonds. Within our equity components, we follow a value strategy, seeking to buy solid companies at attractive prices. We also assess market opportunities to allocate assets where we feel they have the best prospects for risk-adjusted returns." [LOGO] Q&A Q. How did the Fund perform during the period? A. For the 12 months ended July 31, 2001, the Fund produced a total return of 13.93% (Class A Shares at NAV). In comparison, the S&P 500 Stock Index produced a -14.32%, the Lehman Brothers Government/Credit Bond Index gained 12.71%, and the Lipper Balanced Funds Index had a -0.85% return.+ Q. What factors affected your performance? A. We had a great year, outdistancing our benchmarks, the S&P 500 and the Leh- man Brothers Government/Credit Bond Index, and strongly outperforming our peers in the Lipper Balanced Funds Index. During a period when stocks generally sank and bonds rose in value, a Fund such as ours--with significant weighting in fixed-income securities--had no trouble outperforming the major equity aver- ages. However, it was our judicious stock picking and sizable allocation to value stocks that helped us post a very attractive positive return. We feel the speculative bubble that inflated prices in the technology and tele- communications sectors damaged the overall market. Valuations went beyond ex- treme levels; in fact, we feel this could have been the largest speculative bubble the U.S. stock market has ever seen, and the results of the bubble's de- flation could last for years. At the same time, the value sector performed admirably. Value investing pros- pered precisely because it does focus on fundamental valuations, as opposed to the false promise of future profits that was floated by many technology compa- nies. Among our value-oriented holdings, the Fund profited from investments in ener- gy, specialty chemical, and business equipment stocks. We also saw several of our growth stocks rise in value and contribute to the Fund's performance. We believe that our mandate as a "balanced" portfolio obliges us to employ a bal- anced approach that includes growth stocks offering attractive valuations. As of July 31, 2001, the Fund's top five equity holdings were Washington Mutu- al, Inc (2.28% of net assets), Engelhard Corp. (2.03%), First Data Corp. (1.88%), Texaco, Inc. (1.87%) and St. Paul Cos., Inc. (1.58%).++ On the fixed-income side, this was a very good time for investors to have expo- sure to bonds. There was a marked slowdown in economic growth, and we have seen four consecutive quarters of below-average growth in the Gross Domestic Prod- uct.++ Additionally, the Fed has lowered interest rates six times since the first of the year through July 31, 2001. We now have a Fed that has moved to a stimulative monetary policy, and we have in place a stimulative fiscal policy, namely, a tax cut. Over the last 12 months, we have seen almost unprecedented easing of monetary policy. Such an environment is always productive for bonds. As of July 31, 2001, the fixed-income securities within the Fund maintained an average credit quality of AAA (as rated by Standard & Poor's), with an average maturity of 7.0 years. Approximately 49.4% of the Fund's assets were invested in stocks, with 48.0% invested in bonds and 1.8% in cash equivalents.++ Q. What is your outlook for the next six to 12 months? A. With regard to stocks, we don't try to guess which way the market is going to go. We do continue to believe that the next 12 months will be much like the last 12, in that it's going to be a stock picker's market. In the fixed-income arena, we wouldn't be surprised to see the bond market just tread water, with yields and prices hovering in a fairly narrow trading range. The Fed could cut rates a little lower, to protect further against economic recession, but we don't believe there is much more room on the downside for rates. + The Lipper Balanced Funds Index consists of mutual funds whose primary ob- jective is to conserve principal by maintaining at all times a balanced portfolio of both stocks and bonds. Typically, the stock/bond ratio ranges around 60%/40%. ++ The Gross Domestic Product (GDP) is the measure of market value of the goods and services produced by labor and property in the United States. The GDP is made up of consumer and government purchases, private domestic investments, and net exports of goods and services. ++ The Fund's portfolio composition is subject to change. 18 AmSouth

Neil and Peter have Ph.D.s in economics, and Janna holds an M.A. in economics. They have worked together for the past nine years. PORTFOLIO MANAGER'S PERSPECTIVE "Our goal in managing the AmSouth Select Equity Fund is to outperform the S&P 500 over a complete market cycle while experiencing less volatility than the broad stock market. We look for 20 to 25 leading companies that have a dominant market position, or a well-known brand name, yet whose stock price is undervalued. To make this 'growth at a reasonable price' strategy work, we use economic theory to determine whether a company is likely to recover its dominant position after a dip. We believe our patient, long-term approach offers excellent defensive protection, which can reduce losses when the market is weak." [LOGO] Q&A Q. How did the Fund perform during the period? A. For the 12 months ended July 31, 2001, the Fund's total return was 28.96% (Class A Shares at NAV). In comparison, the S&P 500 Index produced a -14.32% return.+ This was a tremendous year for the Fund, outperforming the S&P 500 Stock Index by more than 43%. This performance ranked among the top 9% of all domestic eq- uity mutual funds during the period.++ Q. What factors affected your performance? A. The Fund benefited from its stable growth investment style, which became more attractive to investors during the last 12 months, and strong stock selec- tion within the stable growth category. The dramatic decline in the value of technology shares during the period caused investors to seek out stocks with records of stable earnings growth. We feel our market power analysis enabled us to identify many of the best-performing stocks within the stable growth style. For example, four of our holdings rose more than 50%: H&R Block, Inc. (6.83% of net assets), up 129%; Waste Management, Inc. (8.06%), up 67%; Ralston Purina Group (4.83%), up 61%; and J.M. Smucker Co. (2.28%), up 54%.++ As of July 31, 2001, the Fund's top five holdings were Waste Management, Inc. (8.06% of net assets), SYSCO Corp. (7.31%), H&R Block, Inc. (6.83%), General Mills, Inc. (6.73%) and Moody's Corp. (6.24%).++ Q. What is your outlook for the next six to 12 months? A. Looking ahead, we are hopeful that the market in general can regain its equilibrium. Taking out the disastrous declines in technology and communication services, the rest of the market actually rose by about 6% during the period. We believe the core of the U.S. economy remains intact, and that the rest of the market has a chance to move forward. We feel our strategy has served our shareholders and us very well during the last 12 months, and we hope to main- tain our advantage going forward. + The recent growth rate in the stock market has helped to produce short-term returns that are not typical and may not continue in the future. ++ The AmSouth Select Equity Fund ranked 43 out of 514 funds in the domestic equity funds category for the one-year period, but was not ranked for the five- and 10-year periods.

Neil and Peter have Ph.D.s in economics, and Janna holds an M.A. in economics. They have worked together for the past nine years. Q. How did the Fund perform during the period? A. For the 12 months ended July 31, 2001, the Fund's total return was -14.60% (Class A Shares at NAV). In comparison, the S&P 500 Stock Index produced a - 14.32% return. Q. What factors affected your performance? A. The decline of the overall market was largely due to continued weakness in the communication and technology services sectors--which were down more than 20% and 50%, respectively, for the period as a whole. Demand for computers and related technology surged during 1999--as the world prepared to cope with the Y2K situation--leading many investors to believe that the sales of technology companies would continue to grow at 1999's high rate for several years. Howev- er, after Y2K passed, corporate buyers began to slow their rate of new orders, depressing earnings and leading to a tremendous drop-off in the stock prices of technology and communication companies. The Fund benefited from strong selection throughout the year, demonstrating the value of the disciplined stock picking that is the hallmark of our active man- agement style. Examples included our decisions to overweight SBC Communica- tions, Inc. (1.54% of net assets), a stalwart in the communications services sector, and IBM Corp. (1.89%), which held most of its value in the face of withering losses in the technology sector. We also preserved shareholder value by underweighting American International Group, Inc. (1.97%), which was a lag- gard in the financial services sector.++ Unfortunately, our strong individual selections were not enough to overcome the dramatic decline in the value of technology shares. As with the S&P 500 Index, on which our portfolio is based, falling technology prices were responsible for most of the decline in the Fund's value during the period. As of July 31, 2001, the Fund's top five holdings were General Electric Co. (3.65% of net assets), Microsoft Corp. (3.38%), Exxon Mobil Corp. (2.89%), Pfi- zer, Inc. (2.52%) and Citigroup, Inc. (2.47%).++ Q. What is your outlook for the next six to 12 months? A. Looking ahead, we are hopeful that the market in general can regain its equilibrium. Taking out the disastrous declines in technology and communication services, the rest of the market actually rose by about 6% during the period. We believe the core of the U.S. economy remains intact, and the remainder of the market has a chance to move forward. ++The Fund's portfolio composition is subject to change. 22 AmSouth Enhanced Market Fund Value of a $10,000 Investment [CHART] AmSouth AmSouth AmSouth Enhanced Enhanced Enhanced Market Fund Market Fund Market Fund S&P 500 (Class A Shares)* (Class B Shares)** (Trust Shares) Stock Index 9/1/1998 $ 9,452 $10,000 $10,000 $10,000 9/30/1998 10,048 10,623 10,631 10,638 10/31/1998 10,841 11,447 11,470 11,503 11/30/1998 11,535 12,173 12,204 12,201 12/31/1998 12,130 12,799 12,834 12,903 1/31/1999 12,624 13,305 13,358 13,443 2/28/1999 12,195 12,845 12,906 13,025 3/31/1999 12,746 13,410 13,482 13,547 4/30/1999 13,222 13,912 14,000 14,071 5/31/1999 12,901 13,568 13,651 13,738 6/30/1999 13,624 14,322 14,430 14,501 7/31/1999 13,226 13,890 14,010 14,048 8/31/1999 13,233 13,890 14,021 13,979 9/30/1999 12,840 13,469 13,608 13,596 10/31/1999 13,588 14,243 14,403 14,456 11/30/1999 13,884 14,536 14,710 14,753 12/31/1999 14,684 15,381 15,573 15,619 1/31/2000 14,025 14,675 14,875 14,834 2/29/2000 13,747 14,375 14,573 14,553 3/31/2000 15,070 15,755 15,990 15,977 4/30/2000 14,674 15,330 15,571 15,496 5/31/2000 14,368 14,988 15,248 15,178 6/30/2000 14,635 15,268 15,531 15,552 7/31/2000 14,477 15,092 15,374 15,309 8/31/2000 15,397 16,046 16,352 16,260 9/30/2000 14,546 15,144 15,451 15,402 10/31/2000 14,530 15,123 15,436 15,336 11/30/2000 13,405 13,930 14,233 14,127 12/31/2000 13,474 14,001 14,319 14,196 1/31/2001 13,927 14,155 14,789 14,700 2/28/2001 12,615 13,092 13,408 13,361 3/31/2001 11,799 12,237 12,541 12,515 4/30/2001 12,766 13,240 13,569 13,486 5/31/2001 12,796 13,261 13,601 13,577 6/30/2001 12,504 12,944 13,290 13,247 7/31/2001 12,363 12,486 13,141 13,117 Average Annual Total Return As of Inception 1 Since July 31, 2001 Date Year Inception -------------------------------------------------------- Class A Shares* 9/1/98 -19.29% 7.56% -------------------------------------------------------- Class B Shares** 9/2/98/1/ -19.44% 7.92% -------------------------------------------------------- Trust Shares 12/11/98/1/ -14.53% 9.83% -------------------------------------------------------- *Reflects maximum 5.50% sales charge. **Reflects applicable contingent deferred sales charge (maximum 5.00%).

PORTFOLIO MANAGER'S PERSPECTIVE "The AmSouth International Equity Fund selects undervalued companies in global markets, primarily in Europe and the Pacific Basin. Our team of global analysts uses fundamental research to assess the strengths and weaknesses of individual companies and their competitors, applying both quantitative and qualitative reviews. We seek to manage portfolio risk through security, market, country and regional diversification. We maintain a strict discipline of selling stocks when they reach our valuation targets." [LOGO] Q&A Q. How did the Fund perform during the period? A. For the 12 months ended July 31, 2001, the Fund's total return was -20.62% (Class A Shares at NAV). In comparison, the Morgan Stanley Capital Interna- tional Europe, Australasia and Far East Index(R) produced a -21.88% return. Q. What factors affected your performance? A. While absolute performance was disappointing, our relative performance was, however, some consolation, as we modestly outperformed our benchmark in a dif- ficult environment for foreign stocks. Going back a year ago, the beginning of a sharp decline in international mar- kets in many ways mirrored the difficulties of the U.S. market--specifically, heavy selling and negative momentum of technology, media and telecommunica- tions ("TMT") stocks. This downturn reflected the unusual degree to which the stock market had "overcapitalized" TMT companies, whose sales and earnings in large part could not sustain the growth rates on which their valuations were based. The decline of the euro had a significant negative impact on the performance of international markets, as investors continued to favor dollars in light of global economic uncertainty. In addition--and somewhat because of the decline in TMT--we are now in the midst of a global economic slowdown. The Gross Do- mestic Product++ activity is lower; earnings are weaker or even negative; and stock prices have reacted to this reality and headed sharply lower. We believe the primary reasons the Fund outperformed its benchmark was stock selection--particularly the holdings of technology and telecommunications stocks--and adherence to our value discipline. An integral part of the story of global markets is Japan, which has been struggling for a decade with perpetually weak economic fundamentals (including deflation). In our opinion, the election of a new Prime Minister earlier this year could lead to necessary reforms, though such reforms could be painful in the short term. As of July 31, 2001, 22.0% of the Fund's assets were invested in Japan, 19.6% in the United Kingdom, 14.7% in France, 11.9% in the Netherlands, 6.3% in Ger- many, 4.0% in Italy, 3.1% in Sweden, 3.1% in Spain, 2.5% in Singapore, and 2.3% in Switzerland. A total of 4.3% of assets were diversified across a num- ber of developed and emerging countries, and the remaining 6.2% was allocated to cash equivalents.++ Q. What is your outlook for the next six to 12 months? A. Despite the bad economic news around the world, we pay more attention to the merits of individual companies than we do to larger economic issues we can not control. We continue to see selected European companies as attractive, due to improving return-on-equity and low relative valuations, as stock prices have fallen more than corporate earnings. Valuations in Japan are also compel- ling, particularly in an environment of increasing financial and corporate re- form under the new Prime Minister. + International investing involves increased risk and volatility. ++ The Gross Domestic Product (GDP) is the measure of market value of the goods and services produced by labor and property in a country. The GDP is made up of consumer and government purchases, private domestic invest- ments, and net exports of goods and services. ++The Fund's portfolio composition is subject to change. 24 AmSouth International Equity Fund+ [CHART] Value of a $10,000 Investment

The performance of the AmSouth International Equity Fund is measured against the Morgan Stanley Capital International, MSCI (Europe, Australasia and Far East) EAFE(R) Index, which is unmanaged index that is comprised of a sample of companies representative of the market structure of 20 European and Pa- cific Basin countries. The index does not reflect the deduction of fees as- sociated with a mutual fund, such as investment management fees. The Fund's performance does reflect the deduction of fees for these value-added servic- es. Investors cannot invest directly in an index, although they can invest in its underlying securities. During the period shown, the Advisor waived and/or reimbursed fees for various expenses. Had these waivers and/or reim- bursements not been in effect, performance quoted would have been lower. The quoted returns reflect the performance from 8/15/97 to 12/13/98 of the DG International Equity Fund and from 12/14/98 to 3/12/00 of the ISG Inter- national Equity Fund, which were open-end investment companies that were the predecessor funds to the AmSouth International Equity Fund. /1/Performance for the Class B and Trust Shares, which commenced operations on 2/2/99 and 12/14/98, respectively, are based on the historical perfor- mance of the Class A Shares (without sales charge) prior to that date. The historical performance for the Class B Shares has been adjusted to reflect the higher 12b-1 fees and the contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC). Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Investment return and net asset value will fluctuate, so that an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than the original cost. 25 AmSouth Strategic Portfolios Aggressive Growth Growth Growth and Income Moderate Growth and Income The AmSouth Strategic Portfolios are managed by a team of AmSouth investment managers, including both equity and fixed-income specialists, with more than 40 years of combined investment management experience. PORTFOLIO MANAGERS' PERSPECTIVE The Funds seek to provide investors with the potential to achieve a variety of long- and short-term goals, commensurate with investors' specific time horizons and tolerance for risk. Each of the four Strategic Portfolios invests in a combination of underlying mutual funds from the AmSouth Fund Family. Based on each Portfolio's asset-allocation target, the managers periodically rebalance stock, bond and money-market holdings--based on analysis of economic market trends. [LOGO] Q&A Q. How did the Funds perform during the period? A. For the 12 months ended July 31, 2001, the Funds' total returns and compara- tive benchmark returns were as follows: AmSouth Aggressive Growth Portfolio (Class A Shares at NAV): -3.42% Lipper Growth Funds Index/1/: -22.92% S&P 1500 Stock Index: -12.46% Merrill Lynch Government/Corporate Master Index: 12.76% MSCI EAFE(R) Index: -21.88% AmSouth Growth Portfolio (Class A Shares at NAV): -2.04% Lipper Balanced Funds Index/2/: -0.85% S&P 1500 Stock Index: -12.46% Merrill Lynch Government/Corporate Master Index: 12.76% MSCI EAFE(R) Index: -21.88% AmSouth Growth and Income Portfolio (Class A Shares at NAV): 1.61% Lipper Balanced Funds Index/2/: -0.85% S&P 1500 Stock Index: -12.46% Merrill Lynch Government/Corporate Master Index: 12.76% MSCI EAFE(R) Index: -21.88% AmSouth Moderate Growth and Income Portfolio (Class A Shares at NAV): 4.91% Lipper Balanced Funds Index/2/: -0.85% S&P 1500 Stock Index: -12.46% Merrill Lynch Government/Corporate Master Index: 12.76% Q. What factors affected the Funds' performance? A. Performance was affected by the stock markets' reaction to the incredibly sharp contraction in corporate earnings and the continued dismal outlook for earnings. We also saw an unwinding of the excesses that had been overbuilt in the technology and telecommunications sectors. On the positive side--and why our Strategic Portfolios did a good job of preserving shareholder value were the Portfolios' fixed-income holdings and, on the equity side, value investing's return to favor. Not only has the value investing style in general been productive over the last 12 months, but the execution of the AmSouth Value Fund enabled it to deliver returns considerably in excess of the average value fund's numbers. Because the Strategic Portfolios are actively managed, with asset allocation a key component of our investing discipline, we were able to take full advantage of the Value Fund's success to enhance performance. Approximately 40% of the equity portion of each of our four portfolios, including the Aggressive Growth Portfolio, were invested in the underlying Value Fund.++ As of July 31, 2001, the Funds' portfolios were allocated as follows:++ Aggressive Growth: 90% stocks, 0% bonds, 10% money market. Growth: 65% stocks, 23% bonds, 12% money market. Growth and Income: 50% stocks, 45% bonds, 5% money market. Moderate Growth and Income: 40% stocks, 55% bonds, 5% money market. Q. What is your outlook for the next six to 12 months? A. Since the beginning of calendar year 2001, we have increased the equity weighting of all four portfolios by 5% to 10%, as we anticipate an eventual re- covery in stock prices. We expect to see some improvement in smaller- to mid- size companies; they appear to have greater potential for earnings. For the most part, these companies are not caught up in the international currency fluctuations that are dampening returns for larger, multi-national corpora- tions. We also anticipate additional easing in interest rates from the Fed. While long-term rates might not fall any further, our sense is the Fed has some more work to do on the short-end of the yield curve. /1/The Lipper Growth Funds Index consists of managed mutual funds that nor- mally invest in companies with long-term earnings expected to grow signifi- cantly faster than the earnings of the stocks represented in the major un- managed stock indices. /2/The Lipper Balanced Funds Index consists of mutual funds whose primary ob- jective is to conserve principal by maintaining at all times a balanced portfolio of both stocks and bonds. Typically, the stock/bond ratio ranges around 60%/40%. ++The Fund's portfolio composition is subject to change. 26 AmSouth Aggressive Growth Portfolio [CHART] Value of a $10,000 Investment

Sullivan, CFA, Chief Investment Officer John P. Boston, CFA, Senior Vice President AmSouth Bank AmSouth Investment Management Company, LLC The AmSouth Bond Fund is co-managed by Brian Sullivan, CFA, and John Boston, CFA. Brian has 16 years of fixed-income investment management experience and holds an M.B.A. in finance and a bachelor's degree in economics. John has more than 11 years of experience as a fixed- income manager. He holds a bachelor's degree in finance and political science. PORTFOLIO MANAGER'S PERSPECTIVE "The AmSouth Bond Fund seeks to take advantage of changes in interest rates to pursue strong returns. We buy longer bonds when interest rates are high and expected to fall and shorter bonds when interest rates are low and expected to rise. The change in the average maturity or duration is one of the most powerful determinants of return. Through the active use of high-quality investments, we strive to obtain excellent returns." [LOGO] Q&A Q. How did the Fund perform during the period? A. For the 12 months ended July 31, 2001, the Fund produced a total return of 11.63% (Class A Shares at NAV). In comparison, the Lehman Brothers Government/Credit Bond Index rose 12.71%, and the Lipper Corporate A-Rated Debt Funds Index gained 12.32%.+ Q. What factors affected your performance? A. This was a very good time for investors to have exposure to bonds. There was a marked slowdown in economic growth, and we saw four consecutive quarters of below-average growth in the Gross Domestic Product.++ Additionally, the Fed has lowered interest rates six times since the first of the year through July 31, 2001. We now have a Fed that has moved to a stimulative monetary policy, and we have in place a stimulative fiscal policy, namely, a tax cut. Over the last 12 months, we have seen almost unprecedented easing of monetary policy. With the slowdown we are talking about, interest rates dropped dramatically in the short- and intermediate areas of the yield curve. Although there was not much of a decline in longer interest rates, declines in interest rates are al- ways good for bonds. This was especially true for corporate bonds. During the period, the best- performing area of the bond market was the corporate sector. How did we react to the changing environment? We made substantial changes to the structure of the Bond Fund. We reduced the portfolio's average maturity; we do not feel there is much room left for rates to decline, and we are reluctant to take undue risk. We also reduced our exposure to Treasury securities. If we are correct in our analysis that the U.S. economy is at a trough and could pick up in the near term, we believe the best place to be is in the middle part of the yield curve, with an emphasis on corporate bonds. As of July 31, 2001, approximately 47.8% of the portfolio was invested in cor- porate issues, 27.7% in securities issued by the U.S. Treasury, 22% in U.S. government agency paper, 0.1% in municipal securities, and the remainder in cash equivalents. The securities within the Fund maintained an average credit quality of AAA (as rated by Standard & Poor's), with an average maturity of 6.9 years.++ Q. What is your outlook for the next six to 12 months? A. For at least the next few months, and perhaps longer, we would not be sur- prised to see the bond market just tread water, with yields and prices hovering in a narrow trading range. We believe the Fed could cut rates a little lower, to further protect against an economic recession, but we do not believe there is much more room on the downside for rates. Therefore, we do not anticipate the kind of robust gains we enjoyed over the last 12 months. + The Lipper Corporate A-Rated Debt Funds Index is an index comprised of man- aged funds that invest at least 65% of their assets in corporate debt is- sues rated "A" or better or government issues. ++ The Gross Domestic Product (GDP) is the measure of market value of the goods and services produced by labor and property in the United States. The GDP is made up of consumer and government purchases, private domestic investments, and net exports of goods and services. ++The Fund's portfolio composition is subject to change. 32 AmSouth Bond

Boston, CFA Senior Vice President AmSouth Bank AmSouth Investment Management Company, LLC John manages the AmSouth Limited Term Bond Fund and the AmSouth Government Income Fund and co- manages the AmSouth Bond Fund. He has more than 11 years of experience as a fixed-income manager. He holds a bachelor's degree in finance and political science and is a Chartered Financial Analyst. PORTFOLIO MANAGER'S PERSPECTIVE "The AmSouth Limited Term Bond Fund was designed to fill the gap between money market funds and long term bond funds. For investors looking for a diversified bond fund, this Fund represents the first step out on the 'risk/return' spectrum from the money market arena." [LOGO] Q&A Q. How did the Fund perform during the period? A. For the 12 months ended July 31, 2001, the Fund produced a total return of 10.12% (Class A Shares at NAV). In comparison, the Merrill Lynch 1-5-Year Government/Corporate Bond Index rose 11.18%, and the Lipper Short Intermediate Investment Grade Debt Funds Index gained 11.05%.+ Q. What factors affected your performance? A. This was a very good time for investors to have exposure to bonds. There was a marked slowdown in economic growth, and we saw four consecutive quarters of below-average growth in the Gross Domestic Product.++ Additionally, the Fed has lowered interest rates six times since the first of the year through July 31, 2001. We now have a Fed that has moved to a stimulative monetary policy, and we have in place a stimulative fiscal policy, namely, a tax cut. Over the last 12 months, we have seen almost unprecedented easing of monetary policy. With the slowdown we are talking about, interest rates dropped dramatically in the short- and intermediate areas of the yield curve, though there was not as much of a decline in longer interest rates; declines in interest rates are al- ways good for bonds. This was especially true for corporate bonds. During the period, the best-performing area of the bond market was the corporate sector. How did we react to the changing environment? Among other things, we increased our allocation of corporate bonds to 79.4% of the portfolio's assets, from 72% a year ago. If we are correct in our analysis that the U.S. economy is at a trough and could pick up in the near term, we believe the best place to be is in the middle part of the yield curve, with an emphasis on corporate bonds.++ As of July 31, 2001, approximately 79.4% of the portfolio was invested in cor- porate issues, 7.9% in securities issued by the U.S. Treasury, 10.6% in U.S. government agency paper, and the remainder in cash equivalents. The securities within the Fund maintained an average credit quality of AAA (as rated by Stan- dard & Poor's), with an average maturity of 2.7 years.++ Q. What is your outlook for the next six to 12 months? A. For at least the next few months, and perhaps longer, we would not be sur- prised to see the bond market just tread water, with yields and prices hovering in a narrow trading range. We believe the Fed could cut rates a little lower, to further protect against an economic recession; even if the Fed does not act, short-term rates should remain low. Therefore, we have not changed the average maturity of the Fund. We believe we are positioned to take full advantage of a relatively static fixed-income environment. + The Lipper Short Intermediate Investment Grade Debt Funds Index is com- prised of managed funds that invest at least 65% of their assets in invest- ment-grade debt issues (rated in the top four grades) with dollar-weighted average maturities of one to five years. ++ The Gross Domestic Product (GDP) is the measure of market value of the goods and services produced by labor and property in the United States. The GDP is made up of consumer and government purchases, private domestic investments, and net exports of goods and services. ++The Fund's portfolio composition is subject to change. 34 AmSouth

PORTFOLIO MANAGER'S PERSPECTIVE "The AmSouth Government Income Fund is more suitable for investors who seek income but also demand the safety of U.S. government securities. Although we attempt to consistently generate a high level of income, investors should be aware that yields and principal values vary and that the Fund is not guaranteed by the U.S. government." [LOGO] Q&A Q. How did the Fund perform during the period? A. For the 12 months ended July 31, 2001, the Fund produced a total return of 11.25% (Class A Shares at NAV). In comparison, the Lehman Brothers Mortgage In- dex rose 12.54%, while the Lipper U.S. Mortgage Funds Index gained 11.48%.+ Q. What factors affected your performance? A. Traditionally, the AmSouth Government Income Funds returns are based, to a large extent, on the performance of the U.S. Treasury and mortgage-backed secu- rities. During the most recent, 12-month period, we benefited from an overall rally in Treasury securities, continuing Treasury buy backs--which boost the price of these securities--and a contraction in mortgage spreads. With the Fed lowering interest rates during the last seven months, we saw a ma- jor shift in yields, especially at the short end of the yield curve. Generally, yield declines in the bond market increases proportionally the value of compa- rable bonds held in our portfolio. For example, from July 2000 to July 2001, yields on one-year securities tumbled 265 basis points (2.65%); five-year paper fell 160 basis points (1.60%); and the 30-year bond's yield declined 35 basis points (0.35%). We feel that this disparity between long- and short-securities' yields was expected. The Fed policy affects short-term rates, while the market sets long-term rates. Consequently, most price appreciation took place among the short- and intermediate-term securities we owned. A slower economy and benign inflation in general also helped bonds; although inflation picked up slightly during the period, we feel it was not considered a major concern by bond investors. As of July 31, 2001, the Fund's average maturity was 6.0 years, and its average credit quality was AAA (as rated by the Standard & Poor's). Approximately 38.6% of the Fund was invested in government agency securities, 20.6% in U.S. Trea- suries, 38.5% in mortgage-backed securities, and 0.9% in cash equivalents.++ Q. What is your outlook for the next six to 12 months? A. In recent months, we have become a bit more defensive in positioning the portfolio; we believe much of the bond-market rally is over. We anticipate the economy will bounce back sometime toward the end of this year or the beginning of 2002. We see interest rates either stabilizing or, when the economy picks up, even rising somewhat. In response, we began shortening the Fund's average maturity. + The Lipper U.S. Mortgage Funds Index consists of managed mutual funds that invest at least 65% of their assets in mortgages/securities issued or guar- anteed as to principal and interest by the U.S. government and certain fed- eral agencies. ++The Fund's portfolio composition is subject to change. 36 AmSouth Government Income Fund [CHART] Value of a $10,000 Investment AmSouth AmSouth AmSouth Lehman Government Government Government Brothers Income Fund Income Fund Income Fund Mortgage (Class A Shares)* (Class B Shares) (Trust Shares) Index 10/1/1993 9,597 10,000 10,000 10,000 10/31/1993 9,573 9,958 9,975 10,029 11/30/1993 9,549 9,930 9,950 10,009 12/31/1993 9,598 9,972 10,001 10,090 1/31/1994 9,656 10,028 10,061 10,190 2/28/1994 9,597 9,958 10,000 10,119 3/31/1994 9,460 9,804 9,858 9,855 4/30/1994 9,411 9,748 9,806 9,783 5/31/1994 9,431 9,762 9,827 9,822 6/30/1994 9,461 9,776 9,858 9,800 7/31/1994 9,572 9,888 9,973 9,996 8/31/1994 9,603 9,916 10,005 10,028 9/30/1994 9,552 9,846 9,952 9,886 10/31/1994 9,552 9,846 9,952 9,880 11/30/1994 9,511 9,790 9,909 9,849 12/31/1994 9,562 9,832 9,962 9,928 1/31/1995 9,720 9,986 10,125 10,140 2/28/1995 9,904 10,168 10,318 10,399 3/31/1995 9,926 10,182 10,340 10,448 4/30/1995 10,027 10,280 10,445 10,596 5/31/1995 10,309 10,559 10,737 10,930 6/30/1995 10,376 10,615 10,807 10,992 7/31/1995 10,379 10,615 10,810 11,011 8/31/1995 10,476 10,699 10,911 11,125 9/30/1995 10,558 10,783 10,996 11,223 10/31/1995 10,672 10,881 11,114 11,323 11/30/1995 10,807 11,021 11,255 11,452 12/31/1995 10,936 11,133 11,388 11,595 1/31/1996 11,000 11,189 11,454 11,682 2/29/1996 10,864 11,049 11,314 11,586 3/31/1996 10,820 10,993 11,269 11,544 4/30/1996 10,767 10,923 11,213 11,511 5/31/1996 10,739 10,895 11,183 11,478 6/30/1996 10,847 10,993 11,295 11,636 7/31/1996 10,888 11,021 11,337 11,680 8/31/1996 10,909 11,035 11,359 11,680 9/30/1996 11,072 11,189 11,529 11,875 10/31/1996 11,308 11,427 11,774 12,107 11/30/1996 11,494 11,594 11,968 12,280 12/31/1996 11,381 11,483 11,850 12,217 1/31/1997 11,428 11,510 11,899 12,307 2/28/1997 11,446 11,524 11,917 12,348 3/31/1997 11,339 11,399 11,806 12,232 4/30/1997 11,494 11,552 11,968 12,426 5/31/1997 11,598 11,650 12,075 12,548 6/30/1997 11,737 11,776 12,221 12,695 7/31/1997 12,001 12,028 12,495 12,933 8/31/1997 11,937 11,958 12,429 12,902 9/30/1997 12,103 12,112 12,603 13,066 10/31/1997 12,252 12,252 12,760 13,211 11/30/1997 12,309 12,308 12,820 13,255 12/31/1997 12,445 12,434 12,963 13,375 1/31/1998 12,580 12,559 13,105 13,508 2/28/1998 12,600 12,559 13,127 13,536 3/31/1998 12,643 12,601 13,173 13,593 4/30/1998 12,691 12,629 13,223 13,670 5/31/1998 12,787 12,727 13,325 13,761 6/30/1998 12,861 12,783 13,390 13,827 7/31/1998 12,910 12,825 13,442 13,897 8/31/1998 13,056 12,965 13,609 14,024 9/30/1998 13,273 13,161 13,823 14,193 10/31/1998 13,253 13,133 13,803 14,175 11/30/1998 13,314 13,189 13,882 14,246 12/31/1998 13,334 13,203 13,904 14,307 1/31/1999 13,417 13,273 13,978 14,409 2/28/1999 13,284 13,133 13,854 14,351 3/31/1999 13,343 13,175 13,917 14,447 4/30/1999 13,400 13,217 13,978 14,514 5/31/1999 13,334 13,147 13,910 14,432 6/30/1999 13,291 13,091 13,866 14,382 7/31/1999 13,248 13,049 13,807 14,284 8/31/1999 13,226 13,007 13,815 14,284 9/30/1999 13,381 13,147 13,964 14,515 10/31/1999 13,436 13,203 14,022 14,600 11/30/1999 13,454 13,203 14,042 14,607 12/31/1999 13,418 13,161 14,006 14,572 1/31/2000 13,389 13,119 13,976 14,445 2/29/2000 13,527 13,245 14,121 14,613 3/31/2000 13,716 13,413 14,320 14,772 4/30/2000 13,664 13,368 14,268 14,782 5/31/2000 13,655 13,335 14,261 14,790 6/30/2000 13,877 13,558 14,494 15,106 7/31/2000 13,983 13,654 14,623 15,203 8/31/2000 14,178 13,835 14,828 15,434 9/30/2000 14,242 13,889 14,897 15,594 10/31/2000 14,365 14,002 15,012 15,707 11/30/2000 14,592 14,214 15,267 15,942 12/31/2000 14,850 14,442 15,522 16,199 1/31/2001 15,020 14,598 15,702 16,452 2/28/2001 15,145 14,712 15,835 16,545 3/31/2001 15,211 14,769 15,906 16,641 4/30/2001 15,156 14,707 15,851 16,665 5/31/2001 15,223 14,764 15,922 16,775 6/30/2001 15,259 14,789 15,962 16,810 7/31/2001 15,556 15,069 16,275 17,109 The Class B contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC) is not included in the above graph, since the performance is for more than six years and the CDSC would no longer apply. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -

PORTFOLIO MANAGER'S PROSPECTIVE "The AmSouth Limited Term U.S. Government Fund seeks to provide current income from high grade securities while limiting shape price fluctuations. We minimize share price movements by investing in securities with short maturities. While we generally track the Merrill Lynch 1 to 5 Year Government Bond Index, we seek to outperform it through an occasional contrarian stance to prevailing market sentiment." [LOGO] Q&A Q. How did the Fund perform during the period? A. For the 12 months ended July 31, 2001, the Fund produced a total return of 8.71% (Class A Shares at NAV). In comparison, the Merrill Lynch 1-5-Year Gov- ernment Bond Index gained 10.46%. Q. What factors affected your performance? A. Traditionally, the AmSouth Limited Term U.S. Government Funds returns are based, to a large extent, on the performance of the U.S. Treasury and mortgage- backed securities. During the most recent, 12-month period, we benefited from an overall rally in Treasury securities, continuing Treasury buy backs--which boost the price of these securities--and a contraction in mortgage spreads. With the Fed lowering interest rates during the last seven months, we saw a ma- jor shift in yields, especially at the short end of the yield curve. Generally, yield declines in the bond market increase proportionally the value of compara- ble bonds held in our portfolio. For example, from July 2000 to July 2001, yields on one-year securities tumbled 265 basis points (2.65%); five-year paper fell 160 basis points (1.60%); and the 30-year bond's yield declined 35 basis points (0.35%). We feel that this disparity between long- and short-securities' yields was ex- pected. The Fed policy affects short-term rates, while the market sets long- term rates. Consequently, the short-term holdings of the portfolio helped to produce significant price appreciation. We responded to prevailing conditions by lengthening the average maturity of the portfolio slightly, and continued to emphasize agency paper. As of July 31, 2001, the Fund's average maturity was 2.8 years, and its average credit quality was AAA (as rated by the Standard & Poor's). Approximately 35.5% of the Fund were invested in government agency securities, 42.4% in U.S. Trea- suries, 17.7% in mortgage-backed securities, and 2.9% in cash.++ Q. What is your outlook for the next six to 12 months? A. In recent months, we have become a bit more defensive in positioning the portfolio; we believe much of the bond-market rally is over. We anticipate the economy will bounce back sometime toward the end of this year or the beginning of 2002. We see interest rates either stabilizing or, when the economy picks up, even rising somewhat. Still, we have not lowered the Fund's average maturi- ty; with its short structure, we feel the interest-rate risk of the portfolio should be minimal. ++The Fund's portfolio composition is subject to

The chart above represents a comparison of a hypothetical $10,000 investment 7/31/91 to 7/31/01 in the indicated share class versus a similar investment in the Fund's benchmark, and represents the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains in the Fund. The performance of the AmSouth Limited Term U.S. Government Fund is measured against the Merrill Lynch 1-5-Year Government Bond Index, which is generally representative of the performance of government bonds in that maturity range with a rating of at least Baa. The index does not reflect the deduction of fees associated with a mutual fund, such as investment management fees. The Fund's performance does reflect the deduction of fees for these value-added services. Investors cannot invest directly in an index, although they can in- vest in its underlying securities. During the period shown, the Advisor waived and/or reimbursed fees for various expenses. Had these waivers and/or reimbursements not been in effect, performance quoted would have been lower. The quoted returns reflect the performance from 2/28/97 to 3/12/00 of the ISG Limited Term U.S. Government Fund, an open-end investment company that was the predecessor fund to the AmSouth Limited Term U.S. Government Fund. /1/The ISG Limited Term U.S. Government Fund commenced operations on 2/28/97, through a transfer of assets from certain collective trust fund ("commin- gled") accounts managed by First American National Bank, using substan- tially the same investment objective, policies and methodologies as the Fund. The quoted performance of the Fund includes performance of the com- mingled accounts for periods dating back to 7/31/91, and prior to the mu- tual fund's commencement of operations, as adjusted to reflect the ex- penses associated with the Fund. The commingled accounts were not regis- tered with the Securities and Exchange Commission and, therefore, were not subject to the investment restrictions imposed by law on registered mutual funds. If the commingled accounts had been registered, the commingled ac- counts' performance may have been adversely affected. /2/Performance for the Class B and Trust Shares, which commenced operations on 3/3/98 and 12/14/98, respectively, are based on the historical perfor- mance of the Class A Shares (without sales charge) prior to that date. The historical performance for the Class B Shares has been adjusted to reflect the higher 12b-1 fees and the contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC). Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Investment return and net asset value will fluctuate, so that an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than the original cost. 39 AmSouth Municipal Bond Fund+ Portfolio Manager Dorothy E. Thomas, CFA Senior Vice President AmSouth Bank AmSouth Investment Management Company, LLC Dorothy has more than 17 years of experience as an investment portfolio manager. She holds a M.B.A and a B.A. in economics. She also serves as manager of tax- exempt, fixed-income investments. PORTFOLIO MANAGER'S PERSPECTIVE With the AmSouth Municipal Bond Fund, we concentrate on high quality muncipal bonds those in the top three rating classes, or of comparable quality. As with other AmSouth bond funds, we strive to achieve strong returns by taking advantage of anticipated changes in interest rates." [LOGO] Q&A Q. How did the Fund perform during the period? A. For the 12 months ended July 31, 2001, the Fund produced a total return of 8.36% (Class A Shares at NAV). In comparison, the Merrill Lynch 3-7-Year Munic- ipal Bond Index and the Merrill Lynch 1-12-Year Municipal Bond Index rose 9.21% and 9.52%, respectively, while the Lipper Intermediate Municipal Debt Funds In- dex gained 8.77%.++ It is also important to recognize income yield to shareholders. As of July 31, 2001, the Fund's 30-day SEC yield (Class A Shares) was 3.33%. For investors in the 39.1% federal income tax bracket, that is equivalent to a taxable yield of 5.47% (shareholders who are residents of Alabama could realize a higher tax- able-equivalent yield. The yield percentage is annualized.) We achieved our objectives while maintaining an average credit quality of AA1 (as rated by Standard & Poor's). As of July 31, 2001, the Fund's average matu- rity was 5.5 years.++ Q. What factors affected your performance? A. The 12-month period offered conditions that were very accommodating to the fortunes of fixed-income securities, and the municipal bond market. The Fund benefited from this constructive environment. While debt securities at the short end of the yield curve were appreciably affected by the Fed's six rate cuts in 2001 through July 31, 2001, yields on the intermediate-term securities we favor were not impacted as significantly. In fact, much of our positive price performance, driven higher by a decline in yields, took place at the end of 2000 and the beginning of 2001. With the majority of our shareholders living in Alabama, we maintained a signifi- cant allocation to municipal debt securities issued in the state (46.9% as of July 31, 2001). Therefore, Alabama shareholders enjoyed a tax- equivalent yield higher than the Funds' stated yield, because the interest from securities issued in Alabama generally was tax free to Alabama residents.++ Q. What is your outlook for the next six to 12 months? A. With an eye toward the future, we are positioned defensively. Usually, when there is a rebound in the economy--and we anticipate a modest recovery in the next year--that tends to put some pressure on bond prices. We also believe that the decline in interest rates is much closer to the end than the beginning. Therefore, we do not expect the type of huge boost from falling rates that we enjoyed during the last fiscal year. + The Fund's income may be subject to certain state and local taxes and, de- pending on one's tax status, the federal alternative minimum tax. ++ The Lipper Intermediate Municipal Debt Funds Index consists of managed mu- tual funds that invest in municipal debt issues with dollar-weighted aver- age maturities of five to ten years. ++The Fund's portfolio composition is subject to change. 40 AmSouth Municipal Bond Fund+ Value of a $10,000 Investment [CHART] AmSouth

The performance of the AmSouth Municipal Bond Fund is measured against the Merrill Lynch 3-7-Year Municipal Bond Index and the Merrill Lynch 1-12-Year Municipal Bond Index, which are unmanaged indices that are generally repre- sentative of municipal bonds with intermediate maturities. The indices do not reflect the deduction of fees associated with a mutual fund, such as invest- ment management fees. The Fund's performance does reflect the deduction of fees for these value-added services. Investors cannot invest directly in an index, although they can invest in its underlying securities. During the pe- riod shown, the Advisor waived and/or reimbursed fees for various expenses. Had these waivers and/or reimbursements not been in effect, performance quoted would have been lower. /1/The quoted performance of the AmSouth Municipal Bond Fund ("Mutual Fund") includes performance of common and collective trust fund ("commingled") accounts advised by AmSouth Bank for periods dating back to 7/31/91 for the Municipal Bond Fund and prior to the Mutual Fund's commencement of op- erations on 7/1/97, as adjusted to reflect the expenses associated with the Mutual Funds. The commingled accounts were not registered with the Se- curities and Exchange Commission and, therefore, were not subject to the investment restrictions imposed by law on registered mutual funds. If the commingled account had been registered, the commingled accounts' perfor- mance may have been adversely affected. /2/Performance for the Class B and Trust Shares, which commenced operations on 2/3/99 and 9/2/97, respectively, are based on the historical perfor- mance of the Class A Shares (without sales charge) prior to that date. The historical performance for the Class B Shares has been adjusted to reflect the higher 12b-1 fees and the contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC). Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Investment return and net asset value will fluctuate, so that an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than the original cost. 41 AmSouth Florida Tax-Exempt Fund+ Portfolio Manager Dorothy E. Thomas, CFA Senior Vice President AmSouth Bank AmSouth Investment Management Company, LLC Dorothy has more than 17 years of experience as an investment portfolio manager. She holds a M.B.A. and a B.A. in economics. She also serves as manager of tax- exempt, fixed-income investments. PORTFOLIO MANAGER'S PERSPECTIVE "The AmSouth Florida Tax Exempt Fund has a portfolio of high quality issues in a fast growing state with a strong economic base. Interest on the bonds is exempt from both Federal income tax and the Florida intangibles tax. This portfolio is managed to benefit from expected interest rate moves." [LOGO] Q&A Q. How did the Fund perform during the period? A. For the 12 months ended July 31, 2001, the Fund produced a total return of 7.46% (Class A Shares at NAV). In comparison, the Merrill Lynch 3-7-Year Munic- ipal Bond Index rose 9.21%. It is also important to recognize income yield to shareholders. As of July 31, 2001, the Fund's 30-day SEC yield (Class A Shares) was 3.23%. For investors in the 39.1% federal income tax bracket, that is equivalent to a taxable yield of 5.30% (shareholders who are residents of Florida could realize a higher tax- able-equivalent yield. The yield percentage is annualized.) We achieved our objectives while maintaining an average credit quality of AA1 (as rated by Standard & Poor's). As of July 31, 2001, the Fund's average matu- rity was 5.3 years.++ Q. What factors affected your performance? A. The 12-month period offered conditions that were very accommodating to the fortunes of fixed-income securities, and the municipal bond market. The Fund benefited from this constructive environment. While debt securities at the short end of the yield curve were appreciably affected by the Fed's six rate cuts in 2001 through July 31, 2001, yields on the intermediate-term securities we favor were not impacted as significantly. In fact, much of our positive price performance, driven higher by a decline in yields, took place at the end of 2000 and the beginning of 2001. On a state-specific basis, the Florida municipal market remained very active. With the majority of our shareholders living in Florida, we maintained a sig- nificant allocation to municipal debt securities issued in the state (96.4% as of July 31, 2001). As a result, Florida shareholders enjoyed a higher tax-equivalent yield.++ Q. What is your outlook for the next six to 12 months? A. With an eye toward the future, we are positioned defensively. Usually, when there is a rebound in the economy--and we anticipate a modest recovery in the next year--that tends to put some pressure on bond prices. We also believe that the decline in interest rates is much closer to the end than the beginning. Therefore, we do not expect the type of huge boost from falling rates that we enjoyed during the last fiscal year. + The Fund's income may be subject to certain state and local taxes and, de- pending on one's tax status, the federal alternative minimum tax. ++The Fund's portfolio composition is subject to change. 42 AmSouth Florida Tax-Exempt Fund+ Value of a $10,000 Investment [CHART] AmSouth AmSouth AmSouth Florida Florida Florida Tax-Exempt Tax-Exempt Tax-Exempt Merrill Lynch Merrill Lynch Fund Fund Fund 3-7-Year 1-12-Year (Class A (Class B (Trust Municipal Municipal Shares)* Shares)** Shares) Bond Index Bond Index 9/30/94 9,597 10,000 10,000 10,000 10,000 10/31/94 9,530 9,918 9,930 9,937 9,933 11/30/94 9,414 9,790 9,809 9,841 9,808 12/31/94 9,497 9,860 9,896 9,932 9,936 1/31/95 9,633 10,000 10,038 9,997 10,083 2/28/95 9,841 10,210 10,254 10,207 10,352 3/31/95 9,915 10,269 10,331 10,269 10,403 4/30/95 9,950 10,304 10,368 10,338 10,444 5/31/95 10,142 10,491 10,568 10,572 10,744 6/30/95 10,149 10,491 10,575 10,582 10,723 7/31/95 10,223 10,561 10,652 10,668 10,806 8/31/95 10,288 10,619 10,720 10,765 10,919 9/30/95 10,304 10,619 10,737 10,763 10,929 10/31/95 10,390 10,701 10,827 10,814 11,020 11/30/95 10,476 10,783 10,916 10,964 11,204 12/31/95 10,545 10,841 10,988 10,990 11,266 1/31/96 10,637 10,935 11,084 11,118 11,403 2/29/96 10,627 10,911 11,073 11,098 11,295 3/31/96 10,512 10,783 10,953 11,005 11,286 4/30/96 10,518 10,783 10,960 11,003 11,288 5/31/96 10,515 10,771 10,956 10,995 11,289 6/30/96 10,553 10,806 10,997 11,041 11,354 7/31/96 10,655 10,900 11,102 11,135 11,462 8/31/96 10,655 10,888 11,102 11,151 11,471 9/30/96 10,722 10,946 11,172 11,248 11,575 10/31/96 10,804 11,016 11,257 11,351 11,685 11/30/96 10,938 11,145 11,398 11,483 11,833 12/31/96 10,925 11,121 11,384 11,469 11,817 1/31/97 10,943 11,133 11,402 11,494 11,854 2/28/97 11,020 11,203 11,483 11,576 11,937 3/31/97 10,910 11,086 11,368 11,459 11,812 4/30/97 10,944 11,110 11,403 11,482 11,860 5/31/97 11,069 11,227 11,534 11,618 12,028 6/30/97 11,163 11,308 11,631 11,753 12,151 7/31/97 11,389 11,530 11,867 11,954 12,422 8/31/97 11,297 11,425 11,772 11,878 12,321 9/30/97 11,416 11,542 11,896 12,001 12,460 10/31/97 11,468 11,589 11,952 12,046 12,511 11/30/97 11,504 11,612 11,990 12,093 12,562 12/31/97 11,640 11,741 12,145 12,213 12,726 1/31/98 11,722 11,811 12,220 12,307 12,832 2/28/98 11,725 11,811 12,236 12,325 12,854 3/31/98 11,736 11,811 12,237 12,343 12,871 4/30/98 11,673 11,741 12,172 12,292 12,811 5/31/98 11,858 11,916 12,365 12,451 12,998 6/30/98 11,876 11,928 12,397 12,483 13,034 7/31/98 11,897 11,939 12,420 12,528 13,075 8/31/98 12,083 12,114 12,604 12,708 13,276 9/30/98 12,204 12,231 12,731 12,827 13,419 10/31/98 12,199 12,208 12,727 12,853 13,436 11/30/98 12,225 12,231 12,755 12,868 13,456 12/31/98 12,273 12,266 12,806 12,939 13,524 1/31/99 12,424 12,407 12,964 13,092 13,711 2/28/99 12,330 12,301 12,868 13,047 13,629 3/31/99 12,307 12,275 12,856 13,056 13,618 4/30/99 12,347 12,295 12,887 13,100 13,657 5/31/99 12,254 12,197 12,803 13,048 13,581 6/30/99 12,079 12,027 12,622 12,900 13,387 7/31/99 12,142 12,072 12,688 13,008 13,502 8/31/99 12,115 12,035 12,660 13,011 13,487 9/30/99 12,108 12,020 12,655 13,023 13,506 10/31/99 12,053 11,946 12,586 12,979 13,433 11/30/99 12,146 12,041 12,697 13,059 13,555 12/31/99 12,109 11,991 12,647 13,024 13,523 1/31/00 12,040 11,920 12,588 13,001 13,476 2/29/00 12,169 12,025 12,711 13,054 13,573 3/31/00 12,326 12,172 12,877 13,179 13,748 4/30/00 12,266 12,117 12,815 13,140 13,697 5/31/00 12,211 12,044 12,760 13,137 13,659 6/30/00 12,474 12,308 13,050 13,401 13,977 7/31/00 12,626 12,451 13,197 13,557 14,164 8/31/00 12,771 12,573 13,350 13,700 14,344 9/30/00 12,709 12,505 13,288 13,676 14,292 10/31/00 12,815 12,601 13,399 13,774 14,422 11/30/00 12,870 12,660 13,459 13,831 14,491 12/31/00 13,122 12,901 13,737 14,098 14,826 1/31/01 13,252 13,020 13,875 14,346 15,047 2/28/01 13,292 13,051 13,918 14,359 15,065 3/31/01 13,385 13,123 14,018 14,495 15,204 4/30/01 13,264 13,009 13,892 14,401 15,305 5/31/01 13,369 13,094 14,005 14,565 15,210 6/30/01 13,437 13,153 14,064 14,649 15,318 7/31/01 13,568 13,274 14,216 14,805 15,512 Average Annual Total Return As of Inception 1 5 Since July 31, 2001 Date Year Year Inception --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Class A Shares* 9/30/94 3.19% 4.10% 4.57% --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Class B Shares** 3/16/99/1/ 1.61% 3.68% 4.23% --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Trust Shares 9/2/97/1/ 7.72% 5.07% 5.28% --------------------------------------------------------------------------- *Reflects maximum 4.00% sales charge. **Reflects applicable contingent deferred sales charge (maximum 5.00%).

The historical performance for the Class B Shares has been adjusted to reflect the higher 12b-1 fees and the contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC). Effective 12/1/99, the Classic and Premier Shares were renamed Class A and Trust Shares, respectively. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Investment return and net asset value will fluctuate, so that an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than the original cost. 43 AmSouth Tennessee Tax-Exempt Fund+ Portfolio Manager Sharon Brown Senior Vice President AmSouth Funds AmSouth Investment Management Company, LLC Sharon Brown manages three of the AmSouth Funds: the Tennessee Tax- Exempt Fund, the Limited Term Tennessee Tax-Exempt Fund and the Tax-Exempt Money Market Fund. She has 22 years of investment management experience and holds a bachelor's degree in business administration from the University of Tennessee. PORTFOLIO MANAGER'S PERSPECTIVE "The AmSouth Tennessee Tax-Exempt Fund holds a portfolio of high-quality Tennessee municipal bonds. The Fund buys only bonds rated "A" and above, while attempting to provide a steady flow of tax-free income. We hold bonds of intermediate duration in our search for higher yields. We generally extend durations slightly as interest rates drop. Average duration is 7 to 12 years." [LOGO] Q&A Q. How did the Fund perform during the period? A. For the 12 months ended July 31, 2001, the Fund produced a total return of 7.55% (Class A Shares at NAV). In comparison, the Fund's benchmark, the Lehman Brothers Municipal 10-Year Bond Index, produced a total return of 9.48%. It is also important to recognize income yield to shareholders. As of July 31, 2001, the Fund's 30-day SEC yield at (Class A Shares) was 3.27%. For investors in the 39.1% federal income tax bracket, that is equivalent to a taxable yield of 5.37% (shareholders who are residents of Tennessee could realize a higher taxable-equivalent yield. The yield percentage is annualized). We achieved our objectives while maintaining an average credit quality of AA (as rated by Standard & Poor's). As of July 31, 2001, the Fund's average matu- rity was 6.6 years.++ Q. What factors affected your performance? A. The past 12 months were profitable for just about every type of bond and bond fund, and our portfolio was no exception. With economic conditions unusu- ally conducive to fixed-income securities, and the stock market moving lower, many investors found profitable refuge in funds such as ours. Our emphasis on securities producing income tax free to Tennessee residents further benefited shareholders who live in that state. The municipal market "piggybacked" on the success of the taxable bond market, with bonds helped by the Fed's persistent rate-cutting policy. Because our Fund operates mostly in the short and intermediate portions of the yield curve, and Fed policy directly influences shorter securities, the value of our holdings was enhanced. A lack of supply within the state of Tennessee also worked to lower rates and boost bond prices. Q. What are a few of your favorite bonds in the Fund? A. Among our favorite bonds are City of Memphis bonds yielding 5.25%, due in 2014 (2.11% of net assets). This is a good, solid, noncallable bond that tends to perform well in most types of markets. We also like a Rutherford County is- sue yielding 6.25%, due in 2004 (2.61%). With its high coupon and short maturi- ty, it offers some protection should the market move against us.++ Q. What is your outlook for the next six to 12 months? A. We would not say we are necessarily at the end of the rate-cutting road, but we may be close to the bottom in yields; the Fed may not have much more room to lower rates. On the positive side, we do not see an imminent resurgence of in- flationary pressures. We believe the most likely scenario over the short- and mid-term, is that the municipal market could experience a narrow trading range, with most performance coming from our tax-free yields. + The Fund's income may be subject to certain state and local taxes and, de- pending on one's tax status, the federal alternative minimum tax. ++The Fund's portfolio composition is subject to change. 44

The performance of the AmSouth Tennessee Tax-Exempt Fund is measured against the Merrill Lynch 1-12-Year Municipal Bond Index, which is unmanaged and is generally representative of municipal bonds with intermediate maturities. The Lehman Brothers Municipal 10-Year Index is an unmanaged index that includes municipal bonds issued within the last five years by municipalities through- out the United States, with maturities of at least one year, but no more than 12 years, and a credit quality of at least Baa. The indices do not reflect the deduction of fees associated with a mutual fund, such as investment man- agement fees. The Fund's performance does reflect the deduction of fees for these value-added services. Investors cannot invest directly in an index, al- though they can invest in its underlying securities. During the period shown, the Advisor waived and/or reimbursed fees for various expenses. Had these waivers and/or reimbursements not been in effect, performance quoted would have been lower.

She has 22 years of investment management experience and holds a bachelor's degree in business administration from the University of Tennessee. PORTFOLIO MANAGER'S PERSPECTIVE "The AmSouth Limited Term Tennessee Tax-Exempt Fund holds a portfolio of high quality, short term Tennessee municipal bonds. The Fund buys only bonds rated 'A' and above, while attempting to provide a reliable flow of tax free income. By investing in high quality bonds and keeping bond durations short, we strive to limit fluctuations in the Fund's market value." [LOGO] Q&A Q. How did the Fund perform during the period? A. For the 12 months ended July 31, 2001, the Fund produced a total return of 6.28% (Class A Shares at NAV). In comparison, the Fund's benchmark, Merrill Lynch 3-7-Year Municipal Bond Index, produced a total return of 9.21%. It is also important to recognize income yield to shareholders. As of July 31, 2001, the Fund's 30-day SEC yield (Class A Shares) was 2.38%. For investors in the 39.1% federal income tax bracket, that is equivalent to a taxable yield of 3.91% (shareholders who are residents of Tennessee could realize a higher tax- able-equivalent yield. The yield percentage is annualized). We achieved our objectives while maintaining an average credit quality of AA (as rated by Standard & Poor's). As of July 31, 2001, the Fund's average matu- rity was 4.1 years.++ Q. What factors affected your performance? A. The past 12 months were profitable for just about every type of bond and bond fund, and our portfolio was no exception. With economic conditions unusu- ally conducive to fixed-income securities, and the stock market moving lower, many investors found profitable refuge in funds such as ours. Our emphasis on securities producing income tax-free to Tennessee residents further benefited shareholders who live in that state. The municipal market "piggybacked" on the success of the taxable bond market, with bonds helped by the Fed's persistent rate-cutting policy. Because our Fund operates mostly on the short end of the yield curve, and Fed policy directly influences shorter securities, the value of our holdings was enhanced. A lack of supply within the state of Tennessee also worked to lower rates and boost bond prices. Q. What are a few of your favorite bonds in the Fund? A. We especially like Rutherford County bonds yielding 6.00%, due in 2004 (8.03% of net assets). It offers a good coupon rate for such a short maturity. On the longer end of the yield curve are bonds issued by Shelby County yielding 5.50%, due in 2009 (4.12%). These securities are noncallable and give us par- ticipation in the intermediate segment of the yield curve.++ Q. What is your outlook for the next six to 12 months? A. We would not say we are necessarily at the end of the rate-cutting road, but we may be close to the bottom in yields; the Fed may not have much more room to lower rates. On the positive side, we do not see an imminent resurgence of in- flationary pressures. We believe the most likely scenario over the short- and mid-term, is that the municipal market could experience a narrow trading range, with most performance coming from our tax-free yields. + The Fund's income may be subject to certain state and local taxes and, de- pending on one's tax status, the federal alternative minimum tax. ++The Fund's portfolio composition is subject to change. 46

The chart above represents a comparison of a hypothetical $10,000 investment from 7/31/91 to 7/31/01 in the indicated share class versus a similar invest- ment in the Fund's benchmark, and represents the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains in the Fund. The performance of the AmSouth Limited Term Tennessee Tax-Exempt Fund is mea- sured against the Merrill Lynch 3-7-Year Municipal Bond Index, an unmanaged index that is generally representative of municipal bonds with intermediate maturities. The index does not reflect the deduction of fees associated with a mutual fund, such as investment management fees. The Fund's performance does reflect the deduction of fees for these value-added services. Investors cannot invest directly in an index, although they can invest in its under- lying securities. During the period shown, the Advisor waived and/or reim- bursed fees for various expenses. Had these waivers and/or reimbursements not been in effect, performance quoted would have been lower. The quoted returns reflect the performance from 2/28/97 to 3/12/00 of the ISG Limited Term Tennessee Tax-Exempt Fund, an open-end investment company that was the predecessor fund to the AmSouth Limited Term Tennessee Tax-Exempt Fund. /1/The ISG Limited Term Tennessee Tax-Exempt Fund commenced operations on 2/28/97, through a transfer of assets from certain collective trust fund ("commingled") accounts managed by First American National Bank, using sub- stantially the same investment objective, policies and methodologies as the Fund. The quoted performance of the Fund includes performance of the com- mingled accounts for periods dating back to 7/31/91, and prior to the mu- tual Fund's commencement of operations, as adjusted to reflect the expenses associated with the Fund. The commingled accounts were not registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission and, therefore, were not subject to the investment restrictions imposed by law on registered mutual funds. If the commingled accounts had been registered, the commingled accounts' per- formance may have been adversely affected. /2/Performance for the Class B Shares, which commenced operations on 2/3/98, respectively, are based on the historical performance of the Class A Shares (without sales charge) prior to that date. The historical performance for the Class B Shares has been adjusted to reflect the higher 12b-1 fees and the contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC). Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Investment return and net asset value will fluctuate, so that an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than the original cost. 47 The AmSouth Money Market Funds Portfolio Manager John Mark McKenzie, Senior Vice President Sharon Brown, Senior Vice President AmSouth Bank AmSouth Investment Management Company, LLC.

What factors affected the performance of the money market funds? A. Since the first of the year, the Fed has lowered short-term interest rates six times through July 31, 2001, dropping the Fed Funds rate 275 basis points (2.75%). While lower rates are productive for most types of fixed-interest se- curities, they have the effect of lowering yields on the short-term paper we buy for our money-market funds. With yields dropping, corporate treasurers were reluctant to issue new debt; they concluded that they could wait 60 days and get a better (lower) rate. We have also seen the credit ratings of a significant number of companies down- graded or put on watch. We believe this has driven investors to hunt for quality, and has made it more difficult to find creditworthy commercial debt available at rates that were attractive to us. Rather than stretch for yield or take undo credit risks, we have simply pur- chased overnight repurchase agreements. Although repo rates continued to fall, we have maintained a competitive position by holding an above- average weight- ing in this type of debt, where it has been available. When the economy recovers, we would expect yields to begin to rise modestly. . As of July 31, 2001, the Prime Fund's weighted average maturity was 38 days, compared to 35 days on January 31, 2001, and 39 days on July 31, 2000.++ . As of July 31, 2001, the U.S. Treasury Fund's weighted average maturity was 51 days, compared to 53 days on January 31, 2001, and 56 days on July 31, 2000.++ . As of July 31, 2001, the Tax-Exempt Fund's+ weighted average maturity was 19 days, compared to 78 days on January 31, 2001, and 87 days on July 31, 2000.++ . As of July 31, 2001, the Treasury Reserve Fund's weighted average maturity was 43 days, compared to 47 days on January 31, 2001, and 54 days on July 31, 2000.++ . As of July 31, 2001, the Institutional Prime Obligations Money Market Fund's weighted average maturity was 36 days, compared to 34 days on January 31, 2001, and 31 days on July 31, 2000.++ + The Fund's income may be subject to certain state and local taxes and, de- pending on one's tax status, the federal alternative minimum tax. ++The composition of the Fund's holdings is subject to change.

The AmSouth Tax-Exempt Money Market Fund retained its investment objective and financial history after the reorganization. The Funds also entered into an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization pursuant to which all of the assets and liabilities of the AmSouth Regional Equity Fund transferred to the AmSouth Value Fund in exchange for shares of the AmSouth Value Fund. Continued 237 AMSOUTH FUNDS Notes to Financial Statements, Continued July 31, 2001 The reorganization, which qualified as a tax-free exchange for federal income tax purposes, was completed on March 13, 2000 and was approved by shareholders of the AmSouth Regional Equity Fund at a Special Meeting of Shareholders held on February 22, 2000. The following is a summary of shares outstanding, net assets, net asset value per share and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) immediately before and after the reorganization:

The AmSouth Value Fund retained its investment objective and financial history after the reorganization. 3. Significant Accounting Policies: The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Funds in the preparation of their financial statements. These policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses for the period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Securities Valuation: Investments of the money market funds are valued at either amortized cost, which approximates market value, or at original cost which, combined with accrued interest, approximates market value. Under the amortized cost method, discount or premium is amortized on a constant basis to the maturity of the security. Investments in common stocks, corporate bonds, municipal bonds, commercial paper and U.S. Government securities of the variable net asset value funds are valued on the basis of valuations provided by dealers or an independent pricing service approved by the Board of Trustees. Investments in investment companies are valued at their net asset values as reported by such companies. The differences between cost and market values of such investments are reflected as unrealized appreciation or depreciation. Securities Transactions and Related Income: Securities transactions are accounted for on the date the security is purchased or sold (trade date). Interest income is recognized on the accrual basis and includes, where applicable, the pro rata amortization of premium or discount. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Realized gains or losses from sales of securities are determined by comparing the identified cost of the security lot sold with the net sales proceeds. Continued 238 AMSOUTH FUNDS Notes to Financial Statements, Continued July 31, 2001 Financial Futures Contracts: The Enhanced Market Fund may invest in financial futures contracts for the purpose of hedging its existing portfolio securities, or securities that it intends to purchase, against fluctuations in fair value caused by changes in prevailing market interest rates. Upon entering into a financial futures contract, a Fund is required to pledge to the broker an amount of cash and/or other assets equal to a certain percentage of the contract amount (initial margin deposit). Subsequent payments, known as "variation margin," are made or received by a Fund each day, depending on the daily fluctuations in the fair value of the underlying security. A Fund recognizes a gain or loss equal to the daily variation margin. Should market conditions move unexpectedly, the Fund may not achieve the anticipated benefits of the financial futures contracts and may realize a loss. The use of futures transactions involves the risk of imperfect correlation in movements in the price of futures contracts, interest rates, and the underlying hedged assets. Repurchase Agreements: The Funds may acquire repurchase agreements from member banks of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation and from registered broker/dealers which AmSouth Investment Management Company, LLC ("AIMCO"), deems creditworthy under guidelines approved by the Board of Trustees, subject to the seller's agreement to repurchase such securities at a mutually agreed upon date and price. The repurchase price generally equals the price paid by the Funds plus interest negotiated on the basis of current short-term rates, which may be more or less than the rate on the underlying portfolio securities. The seller, under a repurchase agreement, is required to maintain the value of collateral held pursuant to the agreement at not less than the repurchase price (including accrued interest). Securities subject to repurchase agreements are held by the Funds' custodian or another qualified custodian or in the Federal Reserve/Treasury book-entry system. Foreign Currency Translation: The market value of investment securities, other assets and liabilities of the International Equity Fund denominated in a foreign currency are translated into U.S. dollars at the current exchange rate. Purchases and sales of securities, income receipts and expense payments are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate on the dates of the transactions. The Fund does not isolate that portion of the results of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from the fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities held. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gains or losses from investments. Reported net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from sales and maturities of fund securities, sales of foreign currencies, currency exchange fluctuations between the trade and settlement dates of securities transactions, and the difference between the amounts of assets and liabilities recorded and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses arise from changes in the value of assets and liabilities, including investments in securities, resulting from changes in currency exchange rates. Risks Associated with Foreign Securities and Currencies: Investments in securities of foreign issuers carry certain risks not ordinarily associated with investments in securities of domestic issuers. Such risks include future political and economic developments and the possible imposition of exchange controls or other foreign governmental laws and restrictions. In addition, with respect to certain countries, there is the possibility of expropriation of assets, confiscatory taxation, political or social instability or diplomatic developments which could adversely affect investments in those countries. Certain countries may also impose substantial restrictions on investments in their capital markets by foreign entities, including restrictions on investments in issuers or industries deemed sensitive to relevant national interests. These factors may limit the investment opportunities available to the International Equity Fund or result in a lack of liquidity and high price volatility with respect to securities of issuers from developing countries. Continued 239 AMSOUTH FUNDS Notes to Financial Statements, Continued July 31, 2001 Forward Currency Contracts: The International Equity Fund may enter into a forward currency contract ("forward") which is an agreement between two parties to buy and sell a currency at a set price on a future date. The market value of the forward fluctuates with changes in currency exchange rates. The forward is marked-to- market daily and the change in market value is recorded by the Fund as unrealized appreciation or depreciation. When the forward is closed, the Fund records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed. The Fund could be exposed to risk if a counterparty is unable to meet the terms of a forward or if the value of the currency changes unfavorably. Forwards may involve market or credit risk in excess of the amounts reflected on the Fund's statement of assets and liabilities. The gain or loss from the difference between the cost of original contracts and the amount realized upon the closing of such contracts is included in net realized gains/losses from investment and foreign currency transactions. Fluctuations in the value of forwards held are recorded for financial reporting purposes as unrealized gains and losses by the Fund. Financial Instruments: The Balanced Fund, Enhanced Market Fund, Equity Income Fund, Select Equity Fund, Bond Fund, International Equity Fund, Mid Cap Equity, Capital Growth Fund, and Large Cap Equity may write call options only on securities that are owned by the Fund ("covered calls"). A written call option gives a specified counter-party the right to require the writer of the option to deliver the agreed upon securities, at the agreed upon price, up until the expiration date specified in the contract. For this right, a premium is paid to the writer of the option. The premium received by the Fund for writing the option is booked as realized gains to the Fund. The risks associated with writing a covered call option are diminished compared to writing an uncovered call. The Fund does not bear the risk of having to purchase the securities in the open market at a price greater than the call price should the call option be exercised. Since the Fund owns the securities on which the call has been written, the Fund bears the risk of not receiving the fair market value of a security if the option is exercised. They would be required to sell the securities at the agreed upon price, which would presumably be lower than the fair market value of the securities if the option is exercised. The table below reflects the Equity Income Fund's activity in covered calls, all of which were for purposes of earning additional income, during the year ended July 31, 2001. The premiums column represents the premiums paid by the option counterparties to the Fund in connection with entering into the covered calls. Option activities for the year ended July 31, 2001:
Covered Call Options ------------------ Number of Options Premiums Contracts Received --------- -------- Contracts outstanding at July 31, 2000....................... 40 $49,378 Options written.............................................. 225 $29,699 Options expired.............................................. -- -- Options closed............................................... -- -- Options exercised............................................ 40 -- --- ------- Contracts outstanding at July 31, 2001....................... 225 $29,699 === =======
Securities Lending: To generate additional income, the Funds may lend up to 33 1/3% of total assets pursuant to agreements requiring that the loan be continuously secured by cash, U.S. government or U.S. government agency securities, shares of an investment trust or mutual fund, or any combination of cash and such securities as collateral equal at all times to at least 100% of the market value plus accrued interest on the securities loaned based on prior days closing market value. The Funds continue to earn interest and dividends on securities loaned while simultaneously seeking to earn interest on the investment of collateral. Continued 240 AMSOUTH FUNDS Notes to Financial Statements, Continued July 31, 2001 When cash is received as collateral for securities loaned, the Funds may invest such cash in short-term U.S. government securities, repurchase agreements, or other short-term corporate securities. The cash or subsequent short-term investments are recorded as assets of the Funds, offset by a corresponding liability to repay the cash at the termination of the loan. Fixed income securities received as collateral are not recorded as an asset or liability of the Fund because the Fund does not have effective control of such securities. There may be risks of delay in recovery of the securities or even loss of rights in the collateral should the borrower of the securities fail financially. However, loans will be made only to borrowers deemed by the Advisor to be of good standing and creditworthy under guidelines established by the Board of Trustees and when, in the judgment of the Advisor, the consideration which can be earned currently from such securities loans justifies the attendant risks. Loans are subject to termination by the Funds or the borrower at any time, and are, therefore, not considered to be illiquid investments. As of July 31, 2001, the following Funds had securities with the following market values on loan (amounts in thousands):
Market Market Value Value of of Loaned Collateral Securities ---------- ------------ Value Fund.............................................. $122,209 $118,250 Growth Fund............................................. 1,862 1,807 Capital Growth Fund..................................... 88,415 87,745 Large Cap Fund.......................................... 233,832 226,907 Mid Cap Fund............................................ 16,433 14,044 Small Cap Fund.......................................... 28,396 27,261 Equity Income Fund...................................... 31,495 27,983 Balanced Fund........................................... 27,752 27,093 Enhanced Market Fund.................................... 2,359 2,290 Bond Fund............................................... 276,746 224,662 Limited Term Bond Fund.................................. 14,770 14,480 Government Income Fund.................................. 135,404 65,202 Limited Term U.S. Government Fund....................... 3,618 3,584 U.S. Treasury Money Market Fund......................... 52,000 51,757 Treasury Reserve Money Market Fund...................... 48,000 47,778
The loaned securities were collateralized by cash which was invested in U.S. governement securities, commercial paper, investment companies, and repurchase agreements at July 31, 2001. Dividends to Shareholders: Dividends from net investment income are declared daily and paid monthly for the money market funds. Dividends from net investment income are declared and paid monthly for the variable net asset value funds, except for the International Equity Fund, which dividends are declared and paid annually. Distributable net realized gains, if any, are declared and distributed at least annually. The amounts of dividends from net investment income and of distributions from net realized gains are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations which may differ from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These "book/tax" differences are either considered temporary or permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are permanent in nature, such amounts are reclassified within the composition of net assets based on their federal tax-basis treatment; temporary differences do not require reclassification. To the extent they exceed net investment income and net realized gains for tax purposes, they are reported as distributions of capital. Continued 241 AMSOUTH FUNDS Notes to Financial Statements, Continued July 31, 2001 Federal Income Taxes: It is the policy of each Fund to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company by complying with the provisions available to certain investment companies, as defined in applicable sections of the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code"), and to make distributions of net investment income and net realized capital gains sufficient to relieve it from all, or substantially all, federal income taxes. Other: Expenses that are directly related to one of the Funds are charged directly to that Fund. Other operating expenses for the Trust are prorated to all the Funds on the basis of relative net assets. Fees paid under a Fund's shareholder servicing or distribution plans are borne by the specific class of shares to which they apply. New Accounting Pronouncement: In November 2000 the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) issued a revised version of the AICPA Audit and Accounting Guide for Investment Companies ("the Guide"). The revised version of the Guide is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2000. One of the new provisions in the Guide requires investment companies to amortize premiums and accrete discounts on fixed income securities. The Trust currently does not amortize premiums or accrete discounts in all cases. Upon adoption, the Funds will be required to record a cumulative effect adjustment to conform with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The effect of this adjustment will be to either increase or decrease net investment income with an offsetting decrease or increase on unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of securities. This adjustment will therefore have no effect on the net assets of the Funds. The Trust has completed an analysis of the change and deemed it immaterial to the Funds. 4.Purchases and Sales of Securities: Purchases and sales of securities (excluding short-term securities) for the year ended July 31, 2001 were as follows (amounts in thousands):
