LETTER FROM THE CHAIRMAN

R. JAY GERKEN, CFA

Chairman, President and
Chief Executive Officer

Dear Shareholder,

We are pleased to present the annual report of the Intermediate Muni Fund, Inc. for the 12-month period ended December 31, 2004.

Despite sharply rising oil prices, threats of terrorism, geopolitical concerns and uncertainties surrounding the Presidential election, the U.S. economy continued to expand during the reporting period. Following a robust 4.5% gain in the first quarter of 2004, gross domestic product (“GDP”)i growth was 3.3% in the second quarter of the year. This decline was largely attributed to higher energy prices. However, third quarter 2004 GDP growth rose to a solid 4.0%. While fourth quarter GDP figures have not yet been released, continued growth is expected.

Given the overall strength of the economy, Federal Reserve Board (“Fed”)ii monetary policy was seen as highly accommodative and expectations were that it would start raising rates to ward off the threat of inflation. As expected, the Fed raised its target for the federal funds rateiii by 0.25% to 1.25% at the end of June 2004 — the first rate increase in four years. The Fed again raised rates in 0.25% increments during August, September, November, and December, bringing the target for the federal funds rate to 2.25%. After the end of the fund’s reporting period, at their February meeting, the Fed once again raised the target rate by 0.25% to 2.50%. Regardless of the economic expansion and higher interest rates, the overall bond market generated positive returns during the fiscal year.

Please read on for a more detailed look at prevailing economic and market conditions during the fund’s fiscal year and to learn how those conditions have affected fund performance.

Information About Your Fund

As you may be aware, several issues in the mutual fund industry have recently come under the scrutiny of federal and state regulators. The fund’s Adviser and some of its affiliates have received requests for information from various government regulators regarding market timing, late trading, fees, and other mutual fund issues in connection with various investigations. The fund has been informed that the Adviser and its affiliates are responding to those information requests, but are not in a position to predict the outcome of these requests and investigations.

Intermediate Muni Fund, Inc. | 1

As previously disclosed by Citigroup, the Staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) has notified Citigroup Asset Management (“CAM”) and Citicorp Trust Bank (“CTB”), an affiliate of CAM, that the Staff is considering recommending a civil injunctive action and/or an administrative proceeding against CAM, CTB, the former CEO of CAM, two former employees and a current employee of CAM, relating to the creation, operation and fees of an internal transfer agent unit that serves various CAM-managed funds. Citigroup is cooperating with the SEC and will seek to resolve this matter in discussion with the SEC Staff. Although there can be no assurance, Citigroup does not believe that this matter will have a material adverse effect on the fund. For further information, please see the “Additional Information” note in the Notes to the Financial Statements included in this report.

As always, thank you for your confidence in our stewardship of your assets. We look forward to helping you continue to meet your financial goals.

Sincerely,

R. Jay Gerken, CFA

Performance Review

For the 12 months ended December 31, 2004, the Intermediate Muni Fund, Inc. returned -2.19%, based on its American Stock Exchange (“AMEX”) market price and 3.99% based on its net asset value (“NAV”)iv per share. In comparison, the Lehman Brothers Municipal Bond Index returned 4.48% and its Lipper General Muni Debt closed-end funds category averagev was 6.63% over the same time frame. Please note that Lipper performance returns are based on each fund’s NAV.

During the 12-month period, the fund distributed dividends to shareholders totaling $0.612 per share. The performance table shows the fund’s 30-day SEC yield as well as its 12-month total return based on its NAV and market price as of December 31, 2004. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. The fund’s yields will vary.

FUND PERFORMANCE
AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2004
(unaudited)

Price | 30-Day |  | 12 Month |
Per Share | SEC Yield |  | Total Return |
$ | 10.02 (NAV) | 5.09% |  | 3.99% |
$ | 9.36 (AMEX) | 5.40% |  | –2.19% |

All figures represent past performance and are not a guarantee of future results. The fund’s yields will vary.

Market Overview

Municipal bonds traded in a fairly narrow range during the first two months of 2004. During this time, the economy grew at a more robust pace versus early 2003.vi Although labor market growthviilanguished throughout 2003 into the first quarter of this year, it rose significantly and remained strong in the early spring, and inflation picked up as well.viii

Total returns are based on changes in NAV or market price, respectively. Total returns assume the reinvestment of all dividends and/or capital gains distributions, if any, in additional shares. The “SEC yield” is a return figure often quoted by bond and other fixed-income mutual funds. This quotation is based on the most recent 30-day (or one-month) period covered by the fund’s filings with the SEC. The yield figure reflects the dividends and interest earned during the period after deduction of the fund’s expenses for the period. These yields are as of December 31, 2004 and are subject to change.

Intermediate Muni Fund, Inc. | 3

After an extended period of monetary easing, the Federal Reserve’s monetary policymaking committee raised its federal funds rate target from a four-decade low of 1.00% to 1.25% at the end of June — the Fed’ s first hike in four years. The increase marked a significant reversal from the Fed’s monetary policy position from June 2003, when it last slashed its rate target following a long series of accommodative rate cuts. The rate hike was widely anticipated due to comments from the Fed regarding the momentum behind the economy and signals that it was prepared to push rates higher from their near-historic lows. As a result, bond prices declined and yields rose sharply in April before prices stabilized somewhat in the early summer.

The Fed again raised its fed funds target by 0.25% in August and to 1.75% in September. Given that bond prices had already factored in rate hikes to a significant extent, and coupling this with a lack of inflationary pressures, bond prices held up and actually rose over the third quarter. In September and October, the bond market benefited from falling stock and rising oil prices, which encouraged investors to reallocate capital into fixed-income securities.

Yields on bonds rose as their prices dropped in reaction to an employment report issued in November that yielded surprisingly robust labor market results.vii The Fed subsequently raised its fed funds rate target to 2.00% on November 10th and then again to 2.25% on December 14th. After the end of the fund’s reporting period, at their February meeting, the Fed once again raised the target rate by 0.25% to 2.50%.

Factors that Influenced Fund Performance

During the reporting period, yields on shorter-term municipal securities with maturities from one to seven years rose substantially, with the largest increase in issues with one to three year maturities. At the same time, yields on municipal securities in the 10-year area and those with maturities of 25 to 30 years were up only slightly. Surprisingly, yields on municipals with 15-20 year maturities declined slightly during the year.

Looking at the fiscal year as a whole, the fund’s results were enhanced by the strong performance of its exposure to the hospital sector. In this area, certain securities appreciated after their advance refunding. Generally speaking, an existing bond cannot be prematurely retired, or called, except on specific dates. However, through advance refunding, a security can be refinanced as long as the proceeds of the new bonds are held in reserve to pay the interest and principal on the old bonds until they become callable. In the case of the fund’s holdings in this area, the proceeds of the advance refunding are being held in escrow in high quality U.S. government securities. Another of the fund’s hospital securities also aided returns, as market perceptions of its underlying balance sheet improved.

4 | 2004 Annual Report

Other areas contributing to performance were select fund holdings in the transportation sector and its toll road zero coupon bonds.

Conversely, several of the fund’s holdings in lifecare and multi-family housing (low income) sectors detracted from results. Our escrow-to-maturity bonds with very short average lives due to operating sinking funds, were a drag on performance as short-term interest rates rose, even as longer-term rates declined. Finally a short-position in U.S.Treasury futures, designed to hedge against a possible rise in rates, hurt results as yields on intermediate- and long-term bonds declined.

Looking for Additional Information?

The fund is traded under the symbol “SBI” and its closing market price is available in most newspapers under the AMEX listings. The daily NAV is available on-line under symbol XSBIX. Barron’s and The Wall Street Journal’s Monday editions carry closed-end fund tables that will provide additional information. In addition, the fund issues a quarterly press release that can be found on most major financial websites as well as www.citigroupassetmanagement.com.

The information provided is not intended to be a forecast of future events, a guarantee of future results or investment advice. Views expressed may differ from those of the firm as a whole.

RISKS: Keep in mind the fund’s investments are subject to interest rate and credit risks. As interest rates rise, bond prices fall, reducing the value of the Fund’s share price. Lower-rated, higher yielding bonds, known as “junk bonds”, are subject to greater credit risk, including the risk of default, than higher-rated obligations. The fund may use derivatives, such as options and futures, which can be illiquid, may disproportionately increase losses, and have a potentially large impact on fund performance.

All index performance reflects no deduction for fees, expenses or taxes. Please note that an investor cannot invest directly in an index.

i | Gross domestic product is the market value of goods and services produced by labor and property in a given country.
ii | The Fed is responsible for the formulation of a policy designed to promote economic growth, full employment, stable prices, and a sustainable pattern of international trade and payments.
iii | The federal funds rate is the interest rate that banks with excess reserves at a Federal Reserve district bank charge other banks that need overnight loans.
iv | NAV is calculated by subtracting total liabilities and outstanding preferred stock from the closing value of all securities held by the fund (plus all other assets) and dividing the result (total net assets) by the total number of the common shares outstanding. The NAV fluctuates with changes in the market prices of securities in which the fund has invested. However, the price at which an investor may buy or sell shares of the fund is at the fund’s market price as determined by supply of and demand for the fund’s shares.

Take Advantage of the Fund’s Dividend Reinvestment Plan!

As an investor in the Fund, you can participate in its Dividend Reinvestment Plan (“Plan”), a convenient, simple and efficient way to reinvest your dividends and capital gains distributions, if any, in additional shares of the Fund. Below is a short summary of how the Plan works.

Plan Summary

If you are a Plan participant who has not elected to receive your dividends in the form of a cash payment, then your dividend and capital gain distributions will be reinvested automatically in additional shares of the Fund.

The number of common stock shares in the Fund you will receive in lieu of a cash dividend is determined in the following manner. If the market price of the common stock is equal to or exceeds the net asset value per share (“NAV”) on the determination date, you will be issued shares by the Fund at a price reflecting the NAV, or 95% of the market price, whichever is greater.

If the market price is less than the NAV at the time of valuation (the close of business on the determination date), PFPC Inc. (“Plan Agent”) will buy common stock for your account in the open market.

If the Plan Agent begins to purchase additional shares in the open market and the market price of the shares subsequently rises above the previously determined NAV before the purchases are completed, the Plan Agent will attempt to terminate purchases and have the Fund issue the remaining dividend or distribution in shares at the greater of the previously determined NAV or 95% of the market price. In that case, the number of Fund shares you receive will be based on the weighted average of prices paid for shares purchased in the open market and the price at which the Fund issues the remaining shares.

A more complete description of the current Plan appears in the section of this report beginning on page 39. To find out more detailed information about the Plan and about how you can participate, please call PFPC Inc. at (800) 331-1710.

18 | 2004 Annual Report

Bond Ratings (unaudited)

The definitions of the applicable rating symbols are set forth below:

Standard & Poor’s Ratings Service (“Standard & Poor’s”) — Ratings from “AA” to “CCC” may be modified by the addition of a plus (+) or a minus (–) sign to show relative standings within the major rating categories.

AAA | — Bonds rated “AAA” have the highest rating assigned by Standard & Poor’s. Capacity to
| pay interest and repay principal is extremely strong.
AA | — Bonds rated “AA” have a very strong capacity to pay interest and repay principal and
| differs from the highest rated issue only in a small degree.
A | — Bonds rated “A” have a strong capacity to pay interest and repay principal although it is
| somewhat more susceptible to the adverse effects of changes in circumstances and
| economic conditions than debt in higher rated categories.
BBB | — Bonds rated “BBB” are regarded as having an adequate capacity to pay interest and
| repay principal. Whereas it normally exhibits adequate protection parameters, adverse
| economic conditions or changing circumstances are more likely to lead to a weakened
| capacity to pay interest and repay principal for debt in this category than in higher rated
| categories.
BB, B | — Bonds rated “BB”, “B”, “CCC” and “CC” are regarded, on balance, as predominantly
CCC and CC | speculative and with respect to capacity to pay interest and repay principal in
| accordance with the terms of the obligation. “BB” represents a lower degree of
| speculation than “B”, and “CC” the highest degree of speculation. While such bonds
| will likely have some quality and protective characteristics, these are outweighed by
| large uncertainties or major risk exposures to adverse conditions.

Moody’s Investors Service (“Moody’s”) — Numerical modifiers 1, 2, and 3 may be applied to each generic rating from “Aa” to “Caa”, where 1 is the highest and 3 the lowest rating within its generic category.

Aaa | — Bonds rated “Aaa” are judged to be of the best quality. They carry the smallest degree
| of investment risk and are generally referred to as “gilt edge.” Interest payments are
| protected by a large or by an exceptionally stable margin and principal is secure. While
| the various protective elements are likely to change, such changes as can be visualized
| are most unlikely to impair the fundamentally strong position of such issues.
Aa | — Bonds rated “Aa” are judged to be of high quality by all standards. Together with the
| “Aaa” group they comprise what are generally known as high grade bonds. They are
| rated lower than the best bonds because margins of protection may not be as large as
| in “Aaa” securities or fluctuation of protective elements may be of greater amplitude or
| there may be other elements present which make the long-term risks appear somewhat
| larger than in “Aaa” securities.
A | — Bonds rated “A” possess many favorable investment attributes and are to be considered
| as upper medium grade obligations. Factors giving security to principal and interest are
| considered adequate but elements may be present which suggest a susceptibility to
| impairment some time in the future.
Baa | — Bonds rated “Baa” are considered as medium grade obligations, i.e., they are neither
| highly protected nor poorly secured. Interest payments and principal security appear
| adequate for the present but certain protective elements may be lacking or may be
| characteristically unreliable over any great length of time. Such bonds lack outstanding
| investment characteristics and in fact have speculative characteristics as well.
Ba | — Bonds rated “Ba” are judged to have speculative elements; their future cannot be
| considered as well assured. Often the protection of interest and principal payments
| may be very moderate, and therefore not well safeguarded during both good and bad
| times over the future. Uncertainty of position characterizes bonds in this class.
B | — Bonds rated “B” generally lack characteristics of the desirable investments. Assurance
| of interest and principal payments or maintenance of other terms of the contract over
| any long period of time may be small.
Caa | — Bonds rated “Caa” are of poor standing. These issues may be in default, or there may
| be present elements of danger with respect to principal or interest.

Intermediate Muni Fund, Inc. | 19

Bond Ratings (unaudited) (continued)

Ca | — Bonds rated “Ca” represent obligations which are speculative in a high degree. Such
|  | issues are often in default or have other marked shortcomings.
C | — | Bonds rated “C” are the lowest rated class of bonds, and issues so rated can be regarded
|  | as having extremely poor prospects of ever attaining any real investment standing.

Fitch Ratings (“Fitch”) — Ratings from “AA” to “BBB” may be modified by the addition of a plus (+) sign or minus (–) sign to show relative standings within the major ratings categories.

AA | — | Bonds rated “AA” are considered to be investment-grade and of very high credit quality.
|  | The obligor’s ability to pay interest and/or dividends and repay principal is very strong.
A | — Bonds and preferred stock considered to be investment-grade and of high credit
|  | quality. The obligor’s ability to pay interest and/or dividends and repay principal is
|  | considered to be strong, but may be more vulnerable to adverse changes in economic
|  | conditions and circumstances than debt or preferred securities with higher ratings.
BBB | — Bonds rated “BBB” are considered to be investment-grade and of satisfactory credit
|  | quality. The obligor’s ability to pay interest or dividends and repay principal is con-
|  | sidered to be adequate. Adverse changes in economic conditions and circumstances,
|  | however, are more likely to have adverse impact on these securities and, therefore,
|  | impair timely payment. The likelihood that the ratings of these bonds will fall below
|  | investment grade is higher than for securities with higher ratings.
NR | — Indicates that the bond is not rated by Standard & Poor’s, Moody’s or Fitch.

Short-Term Security Ratings (unaudited)

SP-1 | — | Standard & Poor’s highest rating indicating very strong or strong capacity to pay principal
|  | and interest; those issues determined to possess overwhelming safety characteristics are
|  | denoted with a plus (+) sign.
A-1 | — | Standard & Poor’s highest commercial paper and variable-rate demand obligation (“VRDO”)
|  | rating indicating that the degree of safety regarding timely payment is either overwhelming
|  | or very strong; those issues determined to possess overwhelming safety characteristics are
|  | denoted with a plus (+) sign.
VMIG 1 | — | Moody’s highest rating for issues having a demand feature — VRDO.

Notes to Financial Statements

1. Organization and Significant Accounting Policies

The Intermediate Muni Fund, Inc. (“Fund”), a Maryland corporation, is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as a diversified, closed-end management investment company.

The following are significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund and are in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Estimates and assumptions are required to be made regarding assets, liabilities and changes in net assets resulting from operations when financial statements are prepared. Changes in the economic environment, financial markets and any other parameters used in determining these estimates could cause actual results to differ.

(a) Investment Valuation. Securities are valued at the mean between the bid and asked prices provided by an independent pricing service that are based on transactions in municipal obligations, quotations from municipal bond dealers, market transactions in comparable securities and various relationships between securities. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available or where market quotations are determined not to reflect fair value, will be valued in good faith by or under the direction of the Fund’s Board of Directors. Short-term obligations with maturities of 60 days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates value.

(b) Futures Contracts. The Fund may enter into futures contracts to the extent permitted by its investment policies and objectives. Upon entering into a futures contract, the Fund is required to deposit cash or pledge securities as initial margin. Additional securities are also segregated up to the current market value of the futures contracts.Subsequent payments, which are dependent on the daily fluctuations in the value of the underlying financial instrument, are made or received by the Fund each day (daily variation margin) and are recorded as unrealized gains or losses until the contracts are closed. When the contracts are closed, the Fund records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the proceeds from (or cost of) the closing transactions and the Fund’s basis in the contracts. The Fund enters into such contracts typically to hedge a portion of the portfolio. The risks associat ed with entering into futures contracts include the possibility that a change in the value of the contract may not correlate with the changes in the value of the underlying instruments. In addition, investing in futures contracts involves the risk that the Fund could lose more than the original margin deposit and subsequent payments required for a futures transaction.

(c) Security Transactions and Investment Income. Security transactions are accounted for on trade date. Interest income, adjusted for amortization of premium or accretion of discount, is recorded on the accrual basis. The cost of

26 | 2004 Annual Report

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

investments sold is determined by use of the specific identification method for both financial reporting and income tax purposes.

(d) Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders. Dividends from net investment income for the Fund, if any, are declared and paid on a monthly basis. The Fund intends to satisfy conditions that will enable interest from municipal securities, which is exempt from federal income tax and from designated state income taxes, to retain such tax-exempt status when distributed to the shareholders of the Fund. Distributions of net realized gains to shareholders of the Fund, if any, are taxable and are declared at least annually. Dividends and distributions to shareholders of the Fund are recorded on the ex-dividend date for the shareholders of Common Stock and are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. In addition, the holders of the Municipal Auction Rate Cumulative Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive dividends in accordance with an auction that will normally be held weekly and out of the funds legally available to shareholders.

(e) Net Asset Value. The net asset value of the Fund’s Common Stock is determined no less frequently than the close of business on the Fund’s last business day of each week (generally Friday) and on the last business day of the month. It is determined by dividing the value of the net assets available to Common Stock by the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. For the purpose of determining the net asset value per share of the Common Stock, the value of the Fund’s net assets shall be deemed to equal the value of the Fund’s assets less (1) the Fund’s liabilities, and (2) the aggregate liquidation value (i.e., $25,000 per outstanding share) of the Municipal Auction Rate Cumulative Preferred Stock.

(f) Federal and Other Taxes. It is the Fund’s policy to comply with the federal income and excise tax requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, applicable to regulated investment companies. Accordingly, the Fund intends to distribute substantially all of its taxable income and net realized gains on investments, if any, to shareholders each year. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required.

(g) Reclassifications. GAAP requires that certain components of net assets be adjusted to reflect permanent differences between financial and tax reporting. Accordingly, during the current year, $1,878 has been reclassified between undistributed net investment income and accumulated net realized loss from investment transactions and futures contracts as a result of permanent differences attributable to differences between book and tax amortization of premium on fixed income securities. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or net asset values per share.

2. Management Agreement and Other Transactions with Affiliates

Smith Barney Fund Management LLC (“SBFM”), an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Citigroup Inc. (“Citigroup”), acts as investment manager to the Fund. As compensation for its services, the Fund pays SBFM a management fee calculated at an annual rate of 0.60% of the Fund’s average daily net assets. For purposes of calculating the management fee, the liquidation value of any preferred stock of the Fund is not deducted in determining the Fund’s average daily net assets. This fee is calculated daily and paid monthly.

All officers and one Director of the Fund are employees of Citigroup or its affiliates and do not receive compensation from the Fund.

3. Investments

During the year ended December 31, 2004, the aggregate cost of purchases and proceeds from sales of investments (but excluding short-term investments) were as follows:

Purchases | $ | 59,598,122
Sales |  | 62,332,186

At December 31, 2004, the aggregate gross unrealized appreciation and depreciation of investments for federal income tax purposes were as follows:

Gross unrealized appreciation | $ | 10,777,383 |
Gross unrealized depreciation |  | (1,941,104 | )
Net unrealized appreciation | $ | 8,836,279 |

At December 31, 2004, the Fund had the following open futures contracts:

| Number of | Expiration |  | Basis |  | Market |  | Unrealized |
| Contracts | Date |  | Value |  | Value |  | Loss |
Contracts to Sell: |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

4. Municipal Auction Rate Cumulative Preferred Stock

On January 28, 2002, the Fund issued 2,000 shares of Series M Municipal Auction Rate Cumulative Preferred Stock (“ARCPS”). The underwriting discount of $500,000 and offering expenses of $278,731 associated with the ARCPS offering were recorded as a reduction of the capital paid in excess of par value of common stock for the year ended December 31, 2002. The ARCPS’ dividends are cumulative at a rate determined at an auction and the dividend period is typically 7 days. The dividend rates ranged from 0.80% to 1.90% during the year ended December 31, 2004. At December 31, 2004, the dividend rate was 1.86%.

The ARCPS are redeemable under certain conditions by the Fund, or subject to mandatory redemption (if the Fund is in default of certain coverage requirements) at a redemption price equal to the liquidation preference, which is the sum of $25,000 per share plus accumulated and unpaid dividends.

The Fund is required to maintain certain asset coverages with respect to the ARCPS. If the Fund fails to maintain these coverages and does not cure any such failure within the required time period, the Fund is required to redeem a requisite number of the ARCPS in order to meet the applicable requirement. Additionally, failure to meet the foregoing asset coverage requirements would restrict the Fund’s ability to pay dividends to common shareholders.

Citigroup Global Markets Inc. (“CGM”) another indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Citigroup, also currently acts as a broker/dealer in connection with the auction of ARCPS. After each auction, the auction agent will pay to each broker/dealer, from monies the Fund provides, a participation fee at the annual rate of 0.25% of the purchase price of the ARCPS that the broker/dealer places at the auction. For the year ended December 31, 2004, CGM earned $125,000 as a participating broker/dealer.

5. Capital Shares

Capital stock transactions were as follows:

| Year Ended | Year Ended
| December 31, 2004 | December 31, 2003
| Shares |  | Amount | Shares | Amount
Shares issued on reinvestment | 28,034 | $ | 287,921 | — | —

6. Income Tax Information and Distribution to Shareholders

The tax character of distributions paid during the fiscal years ended December 31, was as follows:

|  | 2004 |  | 2003
Distributions paid from: |  |  |  |
Tax-exempt income | $ | 9,102,913 | $ | 9,072,888
Ordinary income |  | 68,424 |  | —
Total distributions paid | $ | 9,171,337 | $ | 9,072,888

As of December 31, 2004, the components of accumulated earnings/losses on a tax basis were as follows:

Undistributed tax exempt | $ | 771,683 |
Total undistributed earnings |  | 771,683 |
Capital loss carryforward |  | (10,593,613 | )*
Other book/tax temporary differences |  | 1,493,313 | **
Unrealized appreciation |  | 7,336,279 | ***
Total Accumulated Losses | $ | (992,338 | )

* | On December 31, 2004, the Fund had a net capital loss carryforward of $10,593,613, of which $37,946 expires in 2006, $1,896,634 expires in 2007, $513,580 expires in 2008, $4,046,539 expires in 2010, $569,469 expires in 2011, and $3,529,445 expires in 2012. This amount will be available to offset any future taxable gains.
** | Other book/tax temporary differences are attributable primarily to the realization for tax purposes of unrealized losses on certain futures contracts and differences in the book/tax treatment of various items.
*** | The difference between book-basis and tax-basis unrealized/depreciation is attributable primarily to the tax deferral of losses on wash sales and the difference between book and tax amortization methods for premiums and discounts on fixed income securities.

7. Additional Information

In connection with an investigation previously disclosed by Citigroup, the Staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) has notified Citigroup Asset Management (“CAM”), the Citigroup business unit that includes the funds’ investment manager and other investment advisory companies; Citicorp Trust Bank (“CTB”), an affiliate of CAM; Thomas W. Jones, the former CEO of CAM; and three other individuals, one of whom is an employee and two of whom are former employees of CAM, that the SEC Staff is considering recommending a civil injunctive action and/or an administrative proceeding against each of them relating to the creation and operation of an internal transfer agent unit to serve various CAM-managed funds.

In 1999, CTB entered the transfer agent business. CTB hired an unaffiliated subcontractor to perform some of the transfer agent services. The subcontractor, in exchange, had signed a separate agreement with CAM in 1998 that guaranteed investment management revenue to CAM and investment banking revenue to a

30 | 2004 Annual Report

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

CAM affiliate. The subcontractor’s business was later taken over by PFPC Inc., and at that time the revenue guarantee was eliminated and a one-time payment was made by the subcontractor to a CAM affiliate.

CAM did not disclose the revenue guarantee when the boards of various CAM-managed funds hired CTB as transfer agent. Nor did CAM disclose to the boards of the various CAM-managed funds the one-time payment received by the CAM affiliate when it was made. As previously disclosed, CAM has already paid the applicable funds, primarily through voluntary fee waivers, a total of approximately $17 million (plus interest), which is the amount of the revenue received by Citigroup relating to the revenue guarantee.

In addition, the SEC Staff has indicated that it is considering recommending action based on the adequacy of the disclosures made to the fund boards that approved the transfer agency arrangement, CAM’s initiation and operation of, and compensation for, the transfer agent business and CAM’s retention of, and agreements with, the subcontractor.

Citigroup is cooperating fully in the SEC’s investigation and is seeking to resolve the matter in discussions with the SEC Staff. On January 20, 2005, Citigroup stated that it had established an aggregate reserve of $196 million ($25 million in the third quarter of 2004 and $171 million in the fourth quarter of 2004) related to its discussions with the SEC Staff. Settlement negotiations are ongoing and any settlement of this matter with the SEC will require approval by the Citigroup Board and acceptance by the Commission.

Unless and until any settlement is consummated, there can be no assurance that any amount reserved by Citigroup will be distributed. Nor is there at this time any certainty as to how the proceeds of any settlement would be distributed, to whom any such distribution would be made, the methodology by which such distribution would be allocated, and when such distribution would be made.

Although there can be no assurance, Citigroup does not believe that this matter will have a material adverse effect on the funds. The Fund did not implement the contractual arrangement described above and therefore will not receive any portion of such payment.

Dividend Reinvestment Plan (unaudited)

Under the Fund’s Dividend Reinvestment Plan (“Plan”), a shareholder whose shares of common stock are registered in his own name will have all distributions from the fund reinvested automatically by PFPC Inc. (“PFPC”), as purchasing agent under the plan, unless the shareholder elects to receive cash. Distributions with respect to shares registered in the name of a broker-dealer or other nominee (that is, in street name) will be reinvested by the broker or nominee in additional shares under the Plan, unless the service is not provided by the broker or nominee or the shareholder elects to receive distributions in cash. Investors who own common stock registered in street name should consult their broker-dealers for details regarding reinvestment. All distributions to shareholders who do not participate in the plan will be paid by check mailed directly to the record holder by or under the direction of First Data as dividend paying agent.

The number of shares of common stock distributed to participants in the plan in lieu of a cash dividend is determined in the following manner. When the market price of the common stock is equal to or exceeds the net asset value per share of the common stock on the determination date (generally, the record date for the distribution), Plan participants will be issued shares of common stock by the fund at a price equal to the greater of net asset value determined as described below under “Net Asset Value” or 95% of the market price of the common stock.

If the market price of the common stock is less than the net asset value of the common stock at the time of valuation (which is the close of business on the determination date), PFPC will buy common stock in the open market, on the AMEX or elsewhere, for the participants’ accounts. If following the commencement of the purchases and before PFPC has completed its purchases, the market price exceeds the net asset value of the common stock as of the valuation time, PFPC will attempt to terminate purchases in the open market and cause the fund to issue the remaining portion of the dividend or distribution in shares at a price equal to the greater of (a) net asset value as of the valuation time or (b) 95% of the then current market price. In this case, the number of shares received by a Plan participant will be based on the weighted average of prices paid for shares purchased in the open market and the price at which the fund issues the remaining shares. To the extent PFPC is unable to stop open market purchases and cause the Fund to issue the remaining shares, the average per share purchase price paid by PFPC may exceed the net asset value of the common stock as of the valuation time, resulting in the acquisition of fewer shares than if the dividend or capital gains distribution had been paid in common stock issued by the Fund at such net asset value. PFPC will begin to purchase common stock on the open market as soon as practicable after the determination date for the dividend or capital gains distribution, but in no event shall such purchases continue later than 30 days after the payment date for such dividend or distribution, or the record date for a succeeding dividend or distribution, except when necessary to comply with applicable provisions of the federal securities laws.

Intermediate Muni Fund, Inc. | 39

Dividend Reinvestment Plan (unaudited) (continued)

PFPC maintains all shareholder accounts in the Plan and furnishes written confirmations of all transactions in each account, including information needed by a shareholder for personal and tax records. The automatic reinvestment of dividends and capital gains distributions will not relieve plan participants of any income tax that may be payable on the dividends or capital gains distributions. Common stock in the account of each plan participant will be held by PFPC in uncertificated form in the name of the plan participant.

Plan participants are subject to no charge for reinvesting dividends and capital gains distributions under the Plan. PFPC’s fees for handling the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains distributions will be paid by the fund. No brokerage charges apply with respect to shares of common stock issued directly by the fund under the Plan. Each plan participant will, however, bear a proportionate share of any brokerage commissions actually incurred with respect to any open market purchases made under the plan.

Experience under the Plan may indicate that changes to it are desirable. The Fund reserves the right to amend or terminate the plan as applied to any dividend or capital gains distribution paid subsequent to written notice of the change sent to participants at least 30 days before the record date for the dividend or capital gains distribution. The plan also may be amended or terminated by PFPC, with the fund’s prior written consent, on at least 30 days’ written notice to plan participants. All correspondence concerning the plan should be directed by mail to PFPC Inc., P.O. Box 8030, Boston, Massachusetts 02266-8030 or by telephone at (800) 331-1710.

The Fund files its complete schedule of portfolio holdings with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the first and third quarters of each fiscal year on Form N-Q. The Fund’s Forms N-Q are available on the Commission’s website at www.sec.gov. The Fund’s Forms N-Q may be reviewed and copied at the Commission’s Public Reference Room in Washington, D.C., and information on the operation of the Public Reference Room may be obtained by calling 1-800-SEC-0330. To obtain information on Form N-Q from the Fund, shareholders can call 1-800-451-2010.

| (e) | (1) Audit Committee’s pre-approval policies and procedures described in paragraph (c) (7) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X.

| The Charter for the Audit Committee (the “Committee”) of the Board of each registered investment company (the “Fund”) advised by Smith Barney Fund Management LLC or Salomon Brothers Asset Management Inc or one of their affiliates (each, an “Adviser”) requires that the Committee shall approve (a) all audit and permissible non-audit services to be provided to the Fund and (b) all permissible non-audit services to be provided by the Fund’s independent auditors to the Adviser and any Covered Service Providers if the engagement relates directly to the operations and financial reporting of the Fund. The Committee may implement policies and procedures by which such services are approved other than by the full Committee.

| The Committee shall not approve non-audit services that the Committee believes may impair the independence of the auditors. As of the date of the approval of this Audit Committee Charter, permissible non-audit services include any professional services (including tax services), that are not prohibited services as described below, provided to the Fund by the independent auditors, other than those provided to the Fund in connection with an audit or a review of the financial statements of the Fund. Permissible non-audit services may not include: (i) bookkeeping or other services related to the accounting records or financial statements of the Fund; (ii) financial information systems design and implementation; (iii) appraisal or valuation services, fairness opinions or contribution-in-kind reports; (iv) actuarial services; (v) internal audit outsourcing services; (vi) management functions or human resources; (vii) broker or dealer, investment adviser or investment banking services; (viii) legal services and expert services unrelated to the audit; and (ix) any other service the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board determines, by regulation, is impermissible.

| Pre-approval by the Committee of any permissible non-audit services is not required so long as: (i) the aggregate amount of all such permissible non-audit services provided to the Fund, the Adviser and any service

| providers controlling, controlled by or under common control with the Adviser that provide ongoing services to the Fund (“Covered Service Providers”) constitutes not more than 5% of the total amount of revenues paid to the independent auditors during the fiscal year in which the permissible non-audit services are provided to (a) the Fund, (b) the Adviser and (c) any entity controlling, controlled by or under common control with the Adviser that provides ongoing services to the Fund during the fiscal year in which the services are provided that would have to be approved by the Committee; (ii) the permissible non-audit services were not recognized by the Fund at the time of the engagement to be non-audit services; and (iii) such services are promptly brought to the attention of the Committee and approved by the Committee (or its delegate(s)) prior to the completion of the audit.

ITEM 6. | [RESERVED]

ITEM 7. | DISCLOSURE OF PROXY VOTING POLICIES AND PROCEDURES FOR CLOSED-END MANAGEMENT INVESTMENT COMPANIES.

| The Board of Directors of the Fund has delegated the authority to develop policies and procedures relating to proxy voting to the Manager. The Manager is part of Citigroup Asset Management (“CAM”), a group of investment adviser affiliates of Citigroup, Inc. (“Citigroup”). Along with the other investment advisers that comprise CAM, the Manager has adopted a set of proxy voting policies and procedures (the “Policies”) to ensure that the Manager votes proxies relating to equity securities in the best interest of clients.

| In voting proxies, the Manager is guided by general fiduciary principles and seeks to act prudently and solely in the best interest of clients. The Manager attempts to consider all factors that could affect the value of the investment and will vote proxies in the manner that it believes will be consistent with efforts to maximize shareholder values. The Manager may utilize an external service provider to provide it with information and/or a

| recommendation with regard to proxy votes. However, such recommendations do not relieve the Manager of its responsibility for the proxy vote.

| In the case of a proxy issue for which there is a stated position in the Policies, CAM generally votes in accordance with such stated position. In the case of a proxy issue for which there is a list of factors set forth in the Policies that CAM considers in voting on such issue, CAM votes on a case-by-case basis in accordance with the general principles set forth above and considering such enumerated factors. In the case of a proxy issue for which there is no stated position or list of factors that CAM considers in voting on such issue, CAM votes on a case-by-case basis in accordance with the general principles set forth above. Issues for which there is a stated position set forth in the Policies or for which there is a list of factors set forth in the Policies that CAM considers in voting on such issues fall into a variety of categories, including election of directors, ratification of auditors, proxy and tender offer defenses, capital structure issues, executive and director compensation, mergers and corporate restructurings, and social and environmental issues. The stated position on an issue set forth in the Policies can always be superseded, subject to the duty to act solely in the best interest of the beneficial owners of accounts, by the investment management professionals responsible for the account whose shares are being voted. Issues applicable to a particular industry may cause CAM to abandon a policy that would have otherwise applied to issuers generally. As a result of the independent investment advisory services provided by distinct CAM business units, there may be occasions when different business units or different portfolio managers within the same business unit vote differently on the same issue.

| In furtherance of the Manager’s goal to vote proxies in the best interest of clients, the Manager follows procedures designed to identify and address material conflicts that may arise between the Manager’s interests and those of its clients before voting proxies on behalf of such clients. To seek to identify conflicts of interest, CAM periodically notifies CAM employees (including employees of the Manager) in writing that they are under an obligation (i) to be aware of the potential for conflicts of interest with respect to voting proxies on behalf of client accounts both as a result of their personal relationships and due to special circumstances that may arise during the conduct of CAM’s and the Manager’s business, and (ii) to bring conflicts of interest of which they become aware to the attention of compliance personnel. The Manager also maintains and considers a list of significant relationships that could present a conflict of interest for the Manager in voting proxies. The Manager is also sensitive to the fact that a significant, publicized relationship between an issuer and a non-CAM affiliate might appear to the public to influence the manner in which the Manager decides to vote a proxy with respect to such issuer. Absent special circumstances or a significant, publicized non-CAM affiliate relationship that CAM or the Manager for prudential reasons treats as a potential conflict of interest because such relationship might appear to the public to influence the manner in which the Manager decides to vote a proxy, the Manager generally takes the position that non-CAM relationships between

| Citigroup and an issuer (e.g. investment banking or banking) do not present a conflict of interest for the Manager in voting proxies with respect to such issuer. Such position is based on the fact that the Manager is operated as an independent business unit from other Citigroup business units as well as on the existence of information barriers between the Manager and certain other Citigroup business units.

| CAM maintains a Proxy Voting Committee, of which the Manager personnel are members, to review and address conflicts of interest brought to its attention by compliance personnel. A proxy issue that will be voted in accordance with a stated position on an issue or in accordance with the recommendation of an independent third party is not brought to the attention of the Proxy Voting Committee for a conflict of interest review because the Manager’s position is that to the extent a conflict of interest issue exists, it is resolved by voting in accordance with a pre-determined policy or in accordance with the recommendation of an independent third party. With respect to a conflict of interest brought to its attention, the Proxy Voting Committee first determines whether such conflict of interest is material. A conflict of interest is considered material to the extent that it is determined that such conflict is likely to influence, or appear to influence, the Manager’s decision-making in voting proxies. If it is determined by the Proxy Voting Committee that a conflict of interest is not material, the Manager may vote proxies notwithstanding the existence of the conflict.

| If it is determined by the Proxy Voting Committee that a conflict of interest is material, the Proxy Voting Committee is responsible for determining an appropriate method to resolve such conflict of interest before the proxy affected by the conflict of interest is voted. Such determination is based on the particular facts and circumstances, including the importance of the proxy issue and the nature of the conflict of interest. Methods of resolving a material conflict of interest may include, but are not limited to, disclosing the conflict to clients and obtaining their consent before voting, or suggesting to clients that they engage another party to vote the proxy on their behalf.
