MassMutual Premier Funds – Letter to Shareholders

To Our Shareholders

October 31, 2007

Frederick C. Castellani

When the markets become more volatile or there is an unexpected development, there is a natural tendency to focus on short-term developments. However, our view is that one of the keys to successful investing is to maintain a disciplined focus on the longer term. Consequently, MassMutual recommends an approach to investing that de-emphasizes inevitable periods of market volatility and employs a diversification strategy that suits an investor's risk tolerance, financial goals and time horizon.

Stocks and bonds rise in a volatile environment; subprime issues cause concerns

For the 12 months ended October 31, 2007, equities outperformed bonds by a wide margin in an environment of substantial market volatility. The Dow Jones Industrial AverageSM ("the Dow"), a barometer of blue-chip activity, returned 15.31% for the 12-month period. Similarly, the S&P 500® Index, a measure of U.S. large-cap stock performance, advanced 14.55%. The clear leader in the U.S. equity markets was the technology-heavy Nasdaq Composite® Index ("Nasdaq"), which gained 20.81%. Turning to the worldwide equity market, the winner for the period was the Morgan Stanley Capital International Europe, Australasia, Far East ("MSCI® EAFE®") Index, a benchmark for foreign stocks in developed markets, with its 24.91% return. In the fixed-income arena, the Lehman Brothers® Aggregate Bond Index, a broad measure of the U.S. investment-grade bond markets, advanced 5.38% for the 12-month period ended October 31, 2007, as fixed-income investments continued to trail equities.*

Large domestic stocks, measured by the Dow and the S&P 500 Index, forged higher during the final months of 2006. Small caps, as evidenced by the Russell 2000® Index, also ended the year strongly – as did technology stocks in the Nasdaq. The U.S. dollar weakened during the period, which helped the MSCI EAFE Index turn in a double-digit advance. In the fixed-income market, bond prices changed little as 2006 drew to a close, due in part to low default rates and generally favorable corporate earnings. Against this backdrop, the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index posted a marginal gain. The yield curve remained inverted, meaning that the yields of shorter-term securities generally stayed higher than those of longer-term issues.*

Domestic equities showed little change during the first quarter of 2007, despite a significant increase in volatility across the board. The Dow declined slightly for the three months ended March 31, 2007; conversely, the S&P 500 Index and the Nasdaq each finished with a small advance. The depreciating U.S. dollar continued to support the returns of foreign stocks – once again helping the MSCI EAFE Index outperform its U.S. counterparts. Fixed-income investor concerns about the weak housing market and subprime lender problems caused bond yields to ease and prices to rally. Overall, most Treasury securities ended the first quarter with modest price gains, and the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index closed out the period with a positive return.

Most U.S. stock indexes advanced in the second quarter of 2007, as stocks rode a wave of optimism over corporate earnings and overcame short periods of increased volatility associated with investor concerns about soft retail sales, rising interest rates, inflation, the housing market and subprime mortgages. Performance was mixed among fixed-income categories, but investors favored shorter-term issues, such as the 13-week U.S. Treasury Bill. High-yield bonds barely managed a positive return for the quarter, despite moderately favorable corporate earnings and low default rates on corporate high-yield securities.

Most categories of U.S. stocks finished the third quarter of 2007 higher. The final results masked a significant spike in market volatility from mid-July through mid-August, however, as concerns about the subprime mortgage market intensified further. On August 17, 2007, the Fed added liquidity to the banking system and increased the demand for loans by cutting the discount rate by 0.50%. The discount rate is the interest rate that regional Federal Reserve banks charge banks and financial institutions when they borrow funds on a short-term basis. After a surprise drop in a key August employment number and negative movement in other key economic indicators, the central bank moved even more aggressively

to ease monetary conditions, lowering the closely watched target federal funds rate by a larger-than-expected 0.50% to 4.75% and cutting the discount rate an additional 0.50% to 5.25% (interest rate level refers to primary discount rate, not the secondary discount rate) at its September 18, 2007 meeting. The federal funds rate is the interest rate that banks and financial institutions charge each other for borrowing funds overnight. As a result, most broad-based U.S. stock indexes were trading near their all-time highs at the end of the quarter. Conversely, small-cap stocks struggled, with the Russell 2000® Index returning -3.09% for the quarter. The MSCI EAFE Index returned 2.18% during this time frame. In the bond marketplace, the growing concerns about a weakening economy triggered a decline in bond yields and boosted prices. Moreover, a general flight from risk led to strong demand for Treasuries. Toward the end of September 2007, following the Fed's aggressive reduction in short-term interest rates, bond prices gave up some of their recent gains, as fixed-income investors began to question the Fed's commitment to keep inflation at bay. On balance, though, bonds benefited from the quarter's developments. Against this backdrop, the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index posted a healthy 2.85% gain.

During October 2007, domestic stocks advanced slightly, with the clear leader being the Nasdaq, with its 5.83% return. Foreign stocks, as measured by the MSCI EAFE Index, also did well, with a gain of 3.93%. In the fixed-income market, the 10-year Treasury ended the month at 4.48% (compared to 4.58% at the beginning of October), as the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index returned 0.90% for the period.

All eyes turn to the Federal Reserve

Just how serious is the subprime mortgage situation, and what can we expect for the U.S. economy going forward? In part, investors' nervousness during the past few months stemmed from the fact that clear answers to those questions were hard to come by. Nevertheless, the Fed demonstrated its desire to stave off a recession with the aforementioned cuts in the federal funds and discount rates during the September 2007 Federal Open Market Committee ("FOMC") meeting. While there had been speculation about a possible cut in the federal funds rate throughout much of July and August 2007, the deciding factor seemed to be an unexpected drop in non-farm payrolls reported at the beginning of September, which suggested that the difficulties in the subprime market might be spreading to the broader economy. The Fed followed up its September rate cuts with additional 0.25% federal funds and discount rate reductions at the October 31, 2007 FOMC meeting.

The Fed's actions had the desired effect of reassuring the financial markets in the short term, although the Fed's October rate reduction statement called further cuts into question, due to inflationary fears. With inflation on the rise, the Fed, under Chairman Ben Bernanke, might have to be more cautious about lowering interest rates to stimulate a sluggish U.S. economy. Mr. Bernanke must also take into account the potential impact of the Fed's actions on the U.S. dollar. For instance, in September, a consensus had developed that the Fed would cut interest rates. The larger-than-expected rate reduction, however, only accelerated the dollar's rate of depreciation. Needless to say, uncertainty over the Fed's actions with respect to monetary policy will, in the short term, undoubtedly influence investor sentiment as 2007 draws to a close.

Outlook

While we were preparing this report, the equity and fixed-income markets showed an even greater increase in volatility attributable to the continuing increase of investor concerns over the impact of the subprime mortgage situation. When the markets become more volatile or there is an unexpected development, such as the Fed's larger-than-anticipated rate cut, there is a natural tendency to focus on short-term developments. However, our view is that one of the keys to successful investing is to maintain a disciplined focus on long-term results. Benjamin Graham, the father of "value" investing,

By that, he meant that strong fundamentals tend to be recognized in the long run, even if emotions sometimes rule the day over shorter periods of time. In line with this thinking, MassMutual recommends a focus on the longer term and an approach to investing that de-emphasizes inevitable periods of market volatility and employs a diversification strategy that suits an investor's risk tolerance, financial goals and time horizon.

MassMutual Premier Money Market Fund – Portfolio Manager Report

What is the investment objective of the MassMutual Premier Money Market Fund – and who is the Fund's sub-adviser?
  This Fund seeks to maximize current income to the extent consistent with liquidity and the preservation of capital by investing in a diversified portfolio of money market instruments. The Fund's sub-adviser is Babson Capital Management LLC (Babson Capital).

How did the Fund perform during the 12 months ended October 31, 2007?
  The Fund's Class S shares had a return of 4.92%, nearly in line with the 4.95% return of the Salomon Smith Barney 3-Month Treasury Bill Index.

What was the investment background during the period?
  During the final quarter of 2006, the equity markets steadily rose, while corporate bonds also turned in a relatively strong performance. The high-yield sector rallied in the period and investment-grade corporate bonds and other non-Treasuries ("credits") outpaced U.S. Treasuries by 0.25%. Bond yields rose and prices fell early in 2007, reflecting expectations that the economy would achieve a "soft landing" – that is, a mild slowdown without recession. Conversely, bond yields eased and prices rallied later in the quarter when concerns intensified about the weak housing market and problems with subprime lenders made headlines. Bond prices move in the opposite direction to interest rates (or yields); when yields rise, the prices of existing bonds fall – and vice versa. In the end, the Lehman Brothers® Aggregate Bond Index closed out the quarter with a modest advance. The second quarter of 2007 was characterized by a change in investor sentiment concerning economic growth. In April 2007, many indicators were showing stagnant or slowing economic activity. But when most indicators of economic activity later started pointing to growth, the bond market reacted by making a sizable correction, with most long-term bond indexes losing ground. As a result, both the level of interest rates and the pricing of credit risk rose significantly. With respect to the latter, mounting problems surrounding poor mortgage underwriting triggered a sharp sell-off, as credit spreads – or the differences in yields between comparable bonds – widened meaningfully in numerous sectors. The correction was particularly severe in the lower-quality asset-backed securities supported by subprime mortgages and was largely confined to fixed-income markets, as most U.S. large-cap equity indexes rose over 5%.

What began as a real estate problem in the first and second quarters of 2007 became a capital markets problem in the third quarter of 2007. Some aggressively leveraged investors were caught seriously unprepared, as losses forced margin-related selling, resulting in several high-profile hedge fund implosions. The sharp re-pricing of credit risk, which began in June 2007, also raised the specter of troubling scenarios in various structured investment vehicles ("SIVs"), which had been created over the past few years – many with business models contingent on access to short-term lending markets. Coordinated efforts by global central banks subsequently brought short rates down and improved – but did not fully correct – both primary and secondary market liquidity. The Federal Reserve ("Fed") reversed its bias during the quarter, citing prospects for weaker growth. In August, the Fed cut the discount rate – which is the interest rate that regional Fed banks charge banks and financial institutions when they borrow funds on a short-term basis – by 0.50%, and followed with cuts of 0.50% to both the discount and federal funds rates in September 2007. The federal funds rate is the interest rate that banks and financial institutions charge each other for borrowing funds overnight. The Fed followed up its September rate cuts with additional 0.25% federal funds and discount rate reductions at its October 31, 2007 meeting.

What factors contributed to the Fund's performance?
  During the fourth quarter of 2006, concerns mounted that inflation could still be an issue. Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke singled out unit labor costs as a potential source of inflationary pressures – and monetary policy statements implied that it was premature to expect lower interest rates. However, the shape of the yield curve pointed towards less inflation and lower yields in 2007. The yield curve is a graphical representation of bond yields ranging from very short maturities to the longest available, with the curve indicating whether short-term rates are higher or lower than long-term rates. In the first quarter of 2007,

the prices of most Treasury securities registered sizable gains when stocks suffered a big sell-off in late February 2007, as concerned investors fled to safer investments. Not surprisingly, some of those gains were reversed when the stock market stabilized in the weeks following the sell-off until the end of the first quarter.

With respect to yield levels, investors reassessed their expectations for monetary policy in the second quarter of 2007. In April 2007, an expectation for approximately 0.50% of easing by the Fed had been built into the market. However, as economic growth expectations improved, the market began to believe that the Fed would hold interest rates steady indefinitely and a bond sell-off ensued. For example, during the period, 5- and 10- year U.S. Treasury yields rose 0.39% and 0.38%, respectively. From summer to October 2007, investors generally favored higher-quality assets over lower (i.e., credit spreads – the yield disparities between corporate bonds and other non-Treasuries – widened), with risk-free U.S. Treasuries providing the best returns in the fixed-income sector.

What is your outlook?
  With summer storms behind us, and the end of 2007 coming into view, we would like to report that "all's clear." Unfortunately, we cannot – our cautious stance remains. Near term, loosening of credit market conditions, following recent global central banks' accommodations, should allow for market sentiment to improve, and it is true that most fixed-income sectors are more attractively priced now than they were a few months ago. That said, many sectors' valuations still reflect a thin margin for error, given a highly uncertain economic backdrop. We continue to approach current markets opportunistically, looking for the hidden gems in an otherwise difficult environment.

MassMutual Premier Short-Duration Bond Fund – Portfolio Manager Report

What is the investment objective of the MassMutual Premier Short-Duration Bond Fund – and who is the Fund's sub-adviser?
  This Fund seeks to achieve a high total rate of return primarily from current income while minimizing fluctuations in capital values by investing primarily in a diversified portfolio of short-term investment-grade fixed-income securities. The Fund's sub-adviser is Babson Capital Management LLC (Babson Capital).

How did the Fund perform during the 12 months ended October 31, 2007?
  The Fund's Class S shares returned 5.88%, moderately outpacing the 5.73% return of the Lehman Brothers® 1-3 Year Government Bond Index, an unmanaged index of U.S. government bonds with one to three years remaining to the scheduled payment of principal.

What was the investment background during the period?
  During the final quarter of 2006, the equity markets steadily rose, while corporate bonds also turned in a relatively strong performance. The high-yield sector rallied in the period and investment-grade corporate bonds and other non-Treasuries ("credits") outpaced U.S. Treasuries by 0.25%. Bond yields rose and prices fell early in 2007, reflecting expectations that the economy would achieve a "soft landing" – that is, a mild slowdown without recession. Conversely, bond yields eased and prices rallied later in the quarter when concerns intensified about the weak housing market and problems with subprime lenders made headlines. Bond prices move in the opposite direction to interest rates (or yields); when yields rise, the prices of existing bonds fall – and vice versa. In the end, the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index closed out the quarter with a modest advance. The second quarter of 2007 was characterized by a change in investor sentiment concerning economic growth. In April 2007, many indicators were showing stagnant or slowing economic activity. But when most indicators of economic activity later started pointing to growth, the bond market reacted by making a sizable correction, with most long-term bond indexes losing ground for the quarter. As a result, both the level of interest rates and the pricing of credit risk rose significantly. With respect to the latter, mounting problems surrounding poor mortgage underwriting triggered a sharp sell-off, as credit spreads – or the differences in yields between comparable bonds – widened meaningfully in numerous sectors. The correction was particularly severe in the lower-quality asset-backed securities supported by subprime mortgages and was largely confined to fixed-income markets, as equity prices continued to advance.

What began as a real estate problem in the first and second quarters of 2007 became a capital markets problem in the third quarter of 2007. Some aggressively leveraged investors were caught seriously unprepared, as losses forced margin-related selling, resulting in several high-profile hedge fund implosions. The sharp re-pricing of credit risk, which began in June 2007, also raised the specter of troubling scenarios in various structured investment vehicles ("SIVs"), which had been created over the past few years – many with business models contingent on access to short-term lending markets. Coordinated efforts by global central banks subsequently brought short rates down and improved – but did not fully correct – both primary and secondary market liquidity.

In August, the Fed cut the discount rate – which is the interest rate that regional Fed banks charge banks and financial institutions when they borrow funds on a short-term basis – by 0.50%, and followed with cuts of 0.50% to both the discount and federal funds rates in September 2007. The federal funds rate is the interest rate that banks and financial institutions charge each other for borrowing funds overnight. The Fed followed up its September rate cuts with additional 0.25% federal funds and discount rate reductions at its October 31, 2007 meeting. During October, Treasury yields were substantially lower in the short end (compared to year-end 2006) due to the Fed's easing of interest rates.

What factors contributed to the Fund's performance?
  The Fund outperformed the Lehman Brothers 1-3 Year Government Bond Index ("the benchmark") during the fourth quarter of 2006. During the period, Treasury note yields increased by between 0.10% and 0.12%, and the yield curve ended the year slightly more inverted – meaning that the yields of shorter-term securities generally stayed higher than those of longer-term issues. The yield curve is a graphical representation of bond yields ranging from very short maturities to the longest available,

MassMutual Premier Short-Duration Bond Fund – Portfolio Manager Report (Continued)

with the curve indicating whether short-term rates are higher or lower than long-term rates. The Fund's duration target remained very short. Short-duration portfolios generally outperformed the benchmark during the first quarter of 2007. Duration is a measure of a bond or bond portfolio's sensitivity to interest rates. The longer the duration, the greater the price impact to the bond or portfolio when interest rates rise or fall. During this time frame, Treasury note yields decreased by between 0.05% and 0.23%, with the yield curve steepening during the period. Due to the Fed remaining on the sidelines (with respect to any change in the direction of interest rates), the highest yields in the Treasury market during the period could still be captured in the short-term sector. As the first quarter of 2007 came to a close, the Fund's duration target again remained very short.

In government paper, Treasury bill yields declined by 0.13% to 0.23% during the second quarter of 2007, while Treasury note yields increased by 0.28% to 0.38%. These changes resulted in a much steeper curve overall, although the very short end remained somewhat inverted. The Fed remained on the sidelines and the market seemed to give up any expectations of Fed changes for the remainder of 2007, in either direction (easing or tightening). The Fund performed in line with the benchmark during the second quarter of 2007, as the portfolio's duration was very similar to the benchmark's throughout most of the period. The portfolio's duration still remained short, although there was some increase due to the steepening curve. The Fund's performance trailed the benchmark during the third quarter of 2007, as the portfolio's duration was slightly longer than the benchmark's during this time frame. The portfolio's duration still remained well short of the maximum allowed, but there was an increase due to the steepening curve. In October 2007, the Fund outpaced the benchmark, as the portfolio's duration continued to remain slightly longer than the benchmark's.

What is your outlook?
  With summer storms behind us, and the end of 2007 coming into view, we would like to report that "all's clear." Unfortunately, we cannot – our cautious stance remains. Near term, loosening of credit market conditions, following recent global central banks' accommodations, should allow for market sentiment to improve, and it is true that most fixed-income sectors are more attractively priced now than they were a few months ago.

MassMutual Premier Inflation-Protected Bond Fund – Portfolio Manager Report

What is the investment objective of the MassMutual Premier Inflation-Protected Bond Fund – and who is the Fund's sub-adviser?
  This Fund seeks to achieve as high a total rate of real return on an annual basis as is considered consistent with prudent investment risk and the preservation of capital. The Fund's sub-adviser is Babson Capital Management LLC (Babson Capital).

How did the Fund perform during the 12 months ended October 31, 2007?
  The Fund's Class S shares returned 5.86%, trailing the 6.34% return for the Lehman U.S. Treasury Inflation Note Index, an unmanaged index that measures the broad performance of U.S. Treasury inflation-indexed bonds.

How do inflation-indexed bonds protect against inflation?
  Like many other fixed-income securities, inflation-indexed bonds pay income twice a year, based on a fixed coupon rate. However, both the principal and the interest payment are adjusted for the level of inflation. The inflation rate – as measured by the Consumer Price Index – results in an adjustment to the principal amount of an inflation-protected security. The coupon rate is then applied to the adjusted principal amount to determine the interest payment. For example, assuming an inflation rate of 3%, a security with a par value of $1,000 and a coupon rate of 1.75%, the adjusted principal amount after one year would be $1,030 ($1,000 increased by 3%). The interest payment would be calculated by multiplying $1,030 by 1.75% instead of using the original $1,000 par value to calculate the amount of interest.

What was the investment background during the period?
  During the final quarter of 2006, the equity markets steadily rose, while corporate bonds also turned in a relatively strong performance. The high-yield sector rallied in the period and investment-grade corporate bonds and other non-Treasuries ("credits") outpaced U.S. Treasuries by 0.25%. Bond yields rose and prices fell early in 2007, reflecting expectations that the economy would achieve a "soft landing" – that is, a mild slowdown without recession. Conversely, bond yields eased and prices rallied later in the quarter when concerns intensified about the weak housing market and problems with subprime lenders made headlines. Bond prices move in the opposite direction to interest rates (or yields); when yields rise, the prices of existing bonds fall – and vice versa. In the end, the Lehman Brothers® Aggregate Bond Index closed out the quarter with a modest advance. The second quarter of 2007 was characterized by a change in investor sentiment concerning economic growth. In April 2007, many indicators were showing stagnant or slowing economic activity. But when most indicators of economic activity later started pointing to growth, the bond market reacted by making a sizable correction, with most long-term bond indexes losing ground for the quarter. As a result, both the level of interest rates and the pricing of credit risk rose significantly. With respect to the latter, mounting problems surrounding poor mortgage underwriting triggered a sharp sell-off, as credit spreads – or the differences in yields between comparable bonds – widened meaningfully in numerous sectors. The correction was particularly severe in the lower-quality asset-backed securities supported by subprime mortgages and was largely confined to fixed-income markets, as equity prices continued to advance.

What began as a real estate problem in the first and second quarters of 2007 became a capital markets problem in the third quarter of 2007. Some aggressively leveraged investors were caught seriously unprepared, as losses forced margin-related selling, resulting in several high-profile hedge fund implosions. The sharp re-pricing of credit risk, which began in June 2007, also raised the specter of troubling scenarios in various structured investment vehicles ("SIVs"), which had been created over the past few years – many with business models contingent on access to short-term lending markets. Coordinated efforts by global central banks subsequently brought short rates down and improved – but did not fully correct – both primary and secondary market liquidity. The Federal Reserve ("Fed") reversed its bias during the quarter, citing prospects for weaker growth. In August, the Fed cut the discount rate – which is the interest rate that regional Fed banks charge banks and financial institutions when they borrow funds on a short-term basis – by 0.50%, and followed with cuts of 0.50% to both the discount and federal funds rates in September 2007. The federal funds rate is the interest rate that banks and financial institutions charge each other for borrowing funds overnight. The Fed followed up its

MassMutual Premier Inflation-Protected Bond Fund – Portfolio Manager Report (Continued)

September rate cuts with additional 0.25% federal funds and discount rate reductions at its October 31, 2007 meeting. Most domestic stocks advanced slightly during the month of October, led by the Nasdaq Composite® Index ("Nasdaq"), which returned 5.83%. The Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index also gained slightly.

What factors contributed to the Fund's performance?
  The Fund outperformed the Lehman U.S. Treasury Inflation Note Index ("the benchmark") during the fourth quarter of 2006, driven by the Fund's small cash position during a period of increasing yields. Conversely, the Fund underperformed the benchmark in the first quarter of 2007. The portfolio's performance was negatively impacted during the second quarter of 2007 by unexpected withdrawals, which resulted in inopportune trading and a subsequent decline in the Fund's assets of over 10%. The performance of corporate inflation-protected securities ("CIPS") was highly negative during the third quarter of 2007, as bonds suffered in the wake of the spreading of the subprime crisis. Nevertheless, this afforded us the opportunity to make some attractive purchases in CIPs. In October 2007, Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities ("TIPS") were the best performers, as the Fund performed in line with the benchmark.

What is your outlook?
  With summer storms behind us, and the end of 2007 coming into view, we would like to report that "all's clear." Unfortunately, we cannot – our cautious stance remains. Near term, loosening of credit market conditions, following recent global central banks' accommodations, should allow for market sentiment to improve, and it is true that most fixed-income sectors are more attractively priced now than they were a few months ago. That said, many sectors' valuations still reflect a thin margin for error, given a highly uncertain economic backdrop. We continue to approach current markets opportunistically, looking for the hidden gems in an otherwise difficult environment.

MassMutual Premier Core Bond Fund – Portfolio Manager Report

What is the investment objective of the MassMutual Premier Core Bond Fund – and who is the Fund's sub-adviser?
  This Fund seeks to achieve a high total rate of return consistent with prudent investment risk and the preservation of capital by investing primarily in a diversified portfolio of investment-grade fixed-income securities. The Fund's sub-adviser is Babson Capital Management LLC (Babson Capital).

How did the Fund perform during the 12 months ended October 31, 2007?
  The Fund's Class S shares returned 5.57%, outpacing the 5.38% return of the Lehman Brothers® Aggregate Bond Index, an unmanaged index of fixed-rate investment-grade securities with at least one year to maturity, combining the Lehman Brothers® U.S. Government/Credit Index and the Lehman Brothers® Mortgage-Backed Securities Index.

What was the investment background during the period?
  During the final quarter of 2006, the equity markets steadily rose, while corporate bonds also turned in a relatively strong performance. The high-yield sector rallied and investment-grade corporate bonds and other non-Treasuries ("credits") outpaced U.S. Treasuries by 0.25%.

The federal funds rate is the interest rate that banks and financial institutions charge each other for borrowing funds overnight. During October 2007, there was considerable intra-month interest rate volatility, primarily in shorter maturities, which generally moved lower in yield. Much of the corporate market did well for the month, as subprime fears abated temporarily. Unfortunately, the financials sector gave it all back and then some, following third-quarter 2007 earnings releases, which were generally weaker than expected. The Fed followed up its September rate cuts with additional 0.25% federal funds and discount rate reductions at its October 31, 2007 meeting.

What factors contributed to the Fund's performance?
  In the fourth quarter of 2006, the Fund's strength came from its lower-quality credit exposure. Also enhancing performance was opportunistic mortgage trading activity. Higher coupon holdings aided results late in the year. Once again in the first quarter of 2007, lower-quality credit exposure drove the Fund's results. Favorable security selection and sector allocation were also positive factors. The Fund


14



MassMutual Premier Core Bond Fund – Portfolio Manager Report (Continued)

struggled in the second quarter of 2007, as a result of various factors, including unfavorable sector allocation and suboptimal yield curve positioning. In the third quarter of 2007, the Fund's conservative positioning allowed returns to hold up quite well.

In October 2007, the Fund's performance continued to be driven by favorable sector positioning, including strategic underweight positions in financials and corporate mortgage-backed securities ("CMBS"). While it held an overweight position in corporate bonds, the Fund's exposure is biased towards shorter-maturity and higher-quality industrial issues. A modest overweight position in mortgage-backed securities ("MBS") also contributed to the Fund's results for the month.

What is your outlook?
  Approaching year-end, portfolio positioning is particularly challenging, as conflicting opinions abound regarding Gross Domestic Product growth, the direction of interest rates and the vulnerability of global markets. We continue to take a cautious approach, trading carefully around the edges to take advantage of opportunities as yield spreads widen, while remaining mindful of the current difficult environment.

What is the investment objective of the MassMutual Premier Diversified Bond Fund – and who is the Fund's sub-adviser?
  This Fund seeks a superior total rate of return by investing in fixed-income instruments. The Fund's sub-adviser is Babson Capital Management LLC (Babson Capital).

How did the Fund perform during the 12 months ended October 31, 2007?
  The Fund's Class S shares returned 5.69%, moderately outpacing the 5.38% return of the Lehman Brothers® Aggregate Bond Index, an unmanaged index of fixed-rate investment-grade securities with at least one year to maturity, combining the Lehman Brothers® U.S. Government/Credit Index and the Lehman Brothers® Mortgage-Backed Securities Index.

The correction was particularly severe in the lower-quality asset-backed securities supported by subprime mortgages. The high-yield sector also suffered, as an excessive supply of poorly structured new issues exacerbated the back-up. This correction was largely confined to fixed-income markets, however, as equity prices continued to advance.

What began as a real estate problem in the first and second quarters of 2007 became a capital markets problem in the third quarter of 2007. Some aggressively leveraged investors were caught seriously unprepared, as losses forced margin-related selling, resulting in several high-profile hedge fund implosions.

MassMutual Premier Diversified Bond Fund – Portfolio Manager Report (Continued)

What factors contributed to the Fund's performance?
  The Fund outperformed the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index ("the benchmark") in the fourth quarter of 2006. Driving the Fund's performance was its lower-quality credit exposure. Every year since 2002, a bias toward high-yield debt has been a winning trade – and 2006 was no exception. Also enhancing performance was opportunistic mortgage trading activity. In the first quarter of 2007, the Fund outperformed its benchmark, once again benefiting from its allocation to lower-quality bonds.

In the second quarter of 2007, the Fund's performance was driven by its exposure to high-yield bonds. During this time frame, high-yield holdings on average, represented approximately 8.5% of the portfolio. In the third quarter of 2007, despite a modest exposure to lower-quality bonds, which benefited the portfolio earlier in the year, the Fund's other holdings more than offset the negative impact of lagging high-yield bonds. The portfolio continued to hold a small allocation to high-yield securities, which also hindered performance in October 2007.

What is your outlook?
  Approaching year-end, portfolio positioning is particularly challenging, as conflicting opinions abound regarding Gross Domestic Product growth, the direction of interest rates and the vulnerability of global markets. We continue to take a cautious approach, trading carefully around the edges to take advantage of opportunities as yield spreads widen, while remaining mindful of the current difficult environment.

MassMutual Premier Strategic Income Fund – Portfolio Manager Report

What is the investment objective of the MassMutual Premier Strategic Income Fund – and who is the Fund's sub-adviser?
  This Fund seeks high current income by investing mainly in fixed-income debt securities. The Fund's sub-adviser is OFI Institutional Asset Management, Inc. (OFI Institutional).

How did the Fund perform during the 12 months ended October 31, 2007?
  The Fund's Class S shares returned 10.96%, outperforming the 5.38% return of the Lehman Brothers® Aggregate Bond Index, an unmanaged index of fixed-rate investment-grade securities with at least one year to maturity, combining the Lehman Brothers® U.S. Government/Credit Index and the Lehman Brothers® Mortgage-Backed Securities Index. The Fund also outpaced the 9.42% return of the Citigroup World Government Bond Index, an unmanaged index of debt securities of major foreign government bond markets.

What was the investment background during the period?
  In the fixed-income market, bond prices changed little as 2006 drew to a close, due in part to low default rates and generally favorable corporate earnings. Against this backdrop, the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index posted a marginal gain. The yield curve remained inverted, meaning that the yields of shorter-term securities generally stayed higher than those of longer-term issues. The yield curve is a graphical representation of bond yields ranging from very short maturities to the longest available, with the curve indicating whether short-term rates are higher or lower than long-term rates. Bond yields rose and prices fell early in 2007, reflecting expectations that the economy would achieve a "soft landing" – that is, a mild slowdown without recession. Bond prices move in the opposite direction of interest rates (or yields); when yields rise, the prices of existing bonds fall – and vice versa. Conversely, bond yields eased and prices rallied later in the quarter when concerns intensified about the weak housing market and problems with subprime lenders made headlines. Most Treasury securities ended the quarter with minor price gains, and the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index posted a modest advance.

What began as a real estate problem in the first and second quarters of 2007 became a capital markets problem in the third quarter of 2007. Some aggressively leveraged investors were caught seriously unprepared, as losses forced margin-related selling, resulting in several high-profile hedge fund implosions. The sharp re-pricing of credit risk, which began in June 2007, also raised the specter of troubling scenarios in various structured investment vehicles ("SIVs"), which had been created over the past few years – many with business models contingent on access to short-term lending markets. Coordinated efforts by global central banks subsequently brought short rates down and improved – but did not fully correct – both primary and secondary market liquidity. The Federal Reserve ("Fed") reversed its bias during the quarter, citing prospects for weaker growth. In August, the Fed cut the discount rate – which is the interest rate that regional Fed banks charge banks and financial institutions when they borrow funds on a short-term basis – by 0.50%, and followed with cuts of 0.50% to both the discount and federal funds rates in September 2007. The federal funds rate is the interest rate that banks and financial institutions charge each other for borrowing funds overnight. The Fed followed up its September rate cuts with additional 0.25% federal funds and discount rate reductions at its October 31, 2007 meeting. Most domestic stocks advanced slightly during the month of October, and there was also considerable intra-month interest rate volatility, primarily in shorter maturities, which generally moved lower in yield over the period.

What factors contributed to the Fund's performance?
  In the fourth quarter of 2006, Fund management capitalized on opportunities in selected emerging markets to lock in higher yields. In the U.S. government sector, interest rates increased appreciably toward the end of the quarter. Mortgages generally underperformed. The high-yield market remained strong; spreads – or the differences in yields between comparable bonds – continued to be tight, as corporate balance sheets remained firm and investors sought yield. New supply remained high. Driven by low default rates and stable fundamentals, lower-quality securities continued to outperform. In the


22



MassMutual Premier Strategic Income Fund – Portfolio Manager Report (Continued)

first quarter of 2007, the Fund's performance in the international sector was largely driven by emerging market debt. From a credit quality perspective, higher-quality bonds (AA) provided the best excess returns versus Treasuries, while lower-rated (BBB) issuers lost an average of 0.32%. Mortgages exposed to greater levels of prepayment risk outperformed those with less prepayment risk. Investor demand for high-yield securities continued unabated.

In the second quarter of 2007, the majority of the Fund's performance in the international sector was driven by emerging market debt. The mortgage market performed poorly during June 2007, in the face of increased risks associated with subprime mortgages. In the high-yield sector, the cost of credit increased, as high-yield spreads over Treasuries widened 0.53% from the end of May; lower credit quality bonds, (CCC) underperformed the most. The third quarter of 2007 was a volatile period for international bonds. Emerging market bond prices were not as heavily impacted during the summer volatility as they have been in past periods of risk aversion, but they did experience price declines in August 2007, as investors favored higher-quality debt. The Fed's interest rate cuts in September 2007 helped increase risk appetites and contributed to a rapid decline in the value of the dollar versus major currencies, which helped to drive the Fund's performance. Once again, the Fund benefited from its ability to invest in both developed and emerging market economies and from its exposure to both foreign bonds and currencies. Mortgages performed well in September 2007, as liquidity returned to the market, but not to pre-subprime crisis levels. The high-yield market gained traction in September 2007 and managed to close the quarter with a positive return – largely due to the Fed's September rate cuts and the positive impact to bonds affected by the preliminary settlement of the labor agreement between General Motors ("GM") and the United Auto Workers. Interest rates were volatile in October 2007, as signals remained mixed regarding the economic impact of the subprime housing crisis. Mortgages performed well, as ample liquidity and attractive valuations in the sector continued to draw investors. In the high-yield sector, high-yield spreads over Treasuries widened a modest amount during the month. The portfolio continued to hold less CCC-rated exposure and more high-quality (i.e., higher than BB-rated) exposure than the high-yield index.

What is your outlook?
  We expect market volatility to remain high due to uncertainties surrounding the housing sector and its broader impact on the economy countered by the expectations of further rate cuts by the Fed. We expect liquidity may improve as the credit markets settle, remain cautious in our outlook and continue to focus on defensive sectors and higher-quality bonds.

MassMutual Premier High Yield Fund – Portfolio Manager Report

What is the investment objective of the MassMutual Premier High Yield Fund – and who is the Fund's
sub-adviser?

  This Fund seeks to achieve a high level of total return, with an emphasis on current income, by investing primarily in high-yield debt and related securities. The Fund's sub-adviser is Babson Capital Management LLC (Babson Capital).

How did the Fund perform during the 12 months ended October 31, 2007?
  The Fund's Class S shares returned 6.98% outperforming the 6.73% return of the Lehman Brothers® U.S. Corporate High Yield Index, which covers the universe of fixed rate, non-investment-grade debt from the corporate and non-corporate sectors.

What was the investment background during the period?
  For investors, the final quarter of 2006 was characterized by many conflicting signals. Housing starts, production, orders and retail sales all pointed toward softer business conditions. On the other hand, the equity markets seemed to ignore the economic data and steadily rose throughout the quarter. Corporate bonds also turned in a relatively strong performance. The high-yield sector rallied and investment-grade credits outpaced U.S. Treasuries by 0.25%. Bond yields rose and prices fell early in 2007. Conversely, bond yields eased and prices rallied later in the quarter when concerns intensified about the weak housing market and problems with subprime lenders made headlines. Bond prices move in the opposite direction to interest rates (or yields); when yields rise, the prices of existing bonds fall – and vice versa. Most Treasury securities ended the quarter with minor price gains; the Lehman Brothers® Aggregate Bond Index closed out the quarter with a modest advance and the S&P 500® Index was up a mere 0.64%.

The high-yield market experienced a pullback in the second quarter of 2007, as continued concerns about the subprime market and the subsequent turmoil in several large hedge funds led to increased volatility and a repricing of risk within the credit markets. Concurrent with these events, the large high-yield new issue calendar of $21.8 billion in June was met with resistance from investors and several large high-yield transactions failed to be priced. Treasuries were also negatively impacted by subprime concerns, with yields on the 10-year ending the quarter at 5.03%, up from 4.65% at the end of March. In the third quarter of 2007, in a market already uneasy from subprime mortgage woes, the high-yield market rebounded, buoyed in part by action taken by the Federal Reserve ("Fed"). In August, the Fed cut the discount rate – which is the interest rate that regional Fed banks charge banks and financial institutions when they borrow funds on a short-term basis – by 0.50%, and followed with cuts of 0.50% to both the discount and federal funds rates in September 2007. The federal funds rate is the interest rate that banks and financial institutions charge each other for borrowing funds overnight. For the quarter, the BB-rated and B-rated sectors generated positive returns, while the CCC-rated sector, unable to overcome the extreme weakness suffered in June (-5.64%), finished with a negative return. Finally, in October 2007, single-B-rated bonds continued to provide strong performance, with favorable returns from gaming and technology companies. Also in October, the Fed followed up its September rate cuts with additional 0.25% federal funds and discount rate reductions at its October 31, 2007 meeting. Most domestic stocks advanced slightly during the month, led by the Nasdaq Composite® Index ("Nasdaq"), which returned 5.83%. The Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index also gained slightly.

What factors contributed to the Fund's performance?
  In the fourth quarter of 2006, Charter Communications was a top performer – and one of the Fund's largest holdings. The Fund's portfolio positions in autos (particularly General Motors ("GM") and Ford) were a mixed blessing, as they provided solid returns, but lost large amounts of outperformance, as the Fund was weighted towards the finance companies (GMAC and Ford Credit), which underperformed the auto companies. Also consistent with the results for the quarter, the Fund's underweight position in upper-tier credits benefited performance, as the benign credit environment rewarded investors for incremental risk-taking.


25



MassMutual Premier High Yield Fund – Portfolio Manager Report (Continued)

In the first quarter of 2007, mid- and lower-tier securities among the media cable, packaging and industrial-other industries posted strong results. Charter Communications and Packaging Dynamics were a few of the providers of outperformance. Default rates continued to trend lower, with only two bond defaults during the first quarter. In April 2007, the high-yield market rebounded to post a 1.30% return. All major sectors posted positive returns and lower-quality advanced the most. The Fund benefited from the overweight in B-rated and CCC-rated bonds. With respect to specific holdings, the overweight position in Charter Communications continued to be a strong driver of performance, as was the Fund's underweight in GMAC.

For the second quarter of 2007, the Fund's performance was primarily driven by its allocations to CCC-rated bonds and the media non-cable sector. The portfolio's underweight position in higher-quality BB-rated bonds in favor of lower-quality continued to be rewarded, as did an overweight in industrials. Conversely, detractors from performance included the Fund's allocations to automotives, construction (machines) and non-corporate (CDX) exposure. In the third quarter of 2007, the Fund's positions in the retailers, food and beverage and industrial other sectors helped performance, while the Fund's exposure to the restaurants and media noncable sectors detracted. In October 2007, the Fund performed well. On the downside, however, auto finance company issues continued to struggle, as market pressures weighed on their performance.

What is your outlook?
  We are generally positive on the market, as corporate earnings continue to be steady, default measures remain near all-time lows, and the market's higher yields and wider option-adjusted spread ("OAS") present investors with appropriately priced opportunities in the high-yield market. As always, we will remain watchful for signs of economic weakness that could require us to reposition our high-yield portfolios.

MassMutual Premier Balanced Fund – Portfolio Manager Report

What is the investment objective of the MassMutual Premier Balanced Fund – and who is the Fund's
sub-adviser?

  This Fund seeks to achieve a high total rate of return over an extended period of time consistent with the preservation of capital by investing in a diversified portfolio of equity securities, fixed-income securities and money market instruments. The Fund's sub-adviser is Babson Capital Management LLC (Babson Capital).

How did the Fund perform during the 12 months ended October 31, 2007?
  The Fund's Class S shares returned 10.42%, underperforming the 14.55% return of the S&P 500® Index, a widely recognized, unmanaged index representative of common stocks of larger capitalized U.S. companies, and the 12.55% return of the Lipper Balanced Fund Index, an unmanaged, equally weighted index of the 30 largest mutual funds within the Lipper Balanced Category. Conversely, the Fund's Class S shares outpaced the 5.38% return of the Lehman Brothers® Aggregate Bond Index, an unmanaged index of fixed rate investment-grade securities with at least one year to maturity, combining the Lehman Brothers® U.S. Government/Credit Index and the Lehman Brothers® Mortgage-Backed Securities Index.

What was the investment background during the period?
  For investors, the final quarter of 2006 was characterized by many conflicting signals. On the one hand, the economic data, led by the housing sector, pointed to an economy that was losing momentum. Housing starts, production, orders and retail sales all pointed toward softer business conditions. On the other hand, the equity markets seemed to ignore the economic data and steadily rose throughout the quarter. U.S. stock prices showed little change during the first quarter of 2007, despite a significant increase in volatility across the board.

The second quarter of 2007 was characterized by a change in investor sentiment concerning economic growth. In April 2007, many indicators were showing stagnant or slowing economic activity. But when most indicators of economic activity started pointing to growth, the bond market reacted by making a sizable correction, with most long-term bond indexes losing ground for the quarter. The equity market cheered the news; U.S. large-cap indexes rose more than 5% in most cases. The third quarter of 2007 will go down as one of the most volatile quarters in recent history. Remarkably, the market ended up higher after all was said and done, but it required intervention from central banks worldwide and the U.S. Federal Reserve ("Fed") to get us there. The ongoing deterioration in the housing market finally led to a rise in delinquencies on mortgages. This caused a run on mortgage-backed securities, particularly of the subprime variety. Many funds held these securities in leveraged portfolios, so when their prices dropped, the funds' returns plunged. The contagion spread to the equity markets when some of these funds needed to liquidate equity positions to cover investor redemptions. When the commercial paper markets seized up due to the large amount of asset-backed paper in the system, central banks around the world responded by adding liquidity to the system. On August 17, 2007, the Fed lowered the discount rate – the interest rate that regional Fed banks charge banks and financial institutions when they borrow funds on a short-term basis – by 0.50%. On September 18, 2007, the Fed finally lowered the federal funds rate by 0.50%, simultaneously cutting the discount rate an additional 0.50% and essentially flooding the system with liquidity to avert the perceived crisis. The federal funds rate is the interest rate that banks and financial institutions charge each other for borrowing funds overnight. The Fed followed up its September rate cuts with additional 0.25% federal funds and discount rate reductions at its October 31, 2007 meeting.

During October 2007, domestic stocks advanced slightly, with the clear leader being the Nasdaq Composite® Index ("Nasdaq"), with its 5.83% return. In the fixed-income market, the 10-year Treasury ended the month at 4.48% (compared to 4.58% at the beginning of October), as the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index returned 0.90% for the period.

How did the Fund's stock component perform?
  During the fourth quarter of 2006, the Fund's equity models performed well. The market favored small stocks, with higher beta that were growing rapidly. Momentum and estimate revision factors did not help in stock selection in the fourth quarter, however, due to the shift in economic conditions. In the first


29



MassMutual Premier Balanced Fund – Portfolio Manager Report (Continued)

quarter of 2007, the Fund's favorable security selection and sector allocation benefited performance. In the second quarter of 2007, the Fund's core model underperformed due to the poor performance of value factors. The best-performing factors during this period were beta, momentum and estimate revision. For most of the quarter, the Fund held an overweight position in equities and a slight overweight in bonds. Toward the end of the quarter, we began to drop the Fund's allocation to equities, while raising the stake in bonds. The overweight position in equities paid off, however, as the S&P 500 rose 5.9% during the period, whereas the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index fell 0.35%. In the third quarter of 2007, the equity market responded to the Fed rate cut in predictable fashion by rising over 10% off the quarter's earlier lows. The stocks that led the charge were those with heavy exposure to overseas economic activity. These companies are essentially large, growth oriented and have been favored by investors for the past year. To translate this to factor performance, the factors that have outperformed have been growth, momentum and large capitalization. Value strategies performed poorly – a pattern that spilled over into the month of October 2007.

How did the bond portfolio perform?
  In the final months of 2006, the Fund found strength in its lower-quality credit exposure. Also enhancing performance was opportunistic mortgage trading activity. Higher coupon holdings aided results as well. In the first quarter of 2007, the Fund's lower-quality credit exposure and favorable sector allocation were key drivers of performance. The Fund's bond component struggled in the second quarter of 2007 as a result of various factors, including unfavorable sector allocation. In the third quarter of 2007, the Fund's conservative positioning allowed returns to hold up quite well.

In October 2007, the Fund's performance in the bond segment continued to be driven by favorable sector positioning, including strategically underweight positions in financials and corporate mortgage-backed securities ("CMBS"). While holding an overweight position in corporate bonds, the Fund's exposure is biased towards shorter-maturity and higher-quality industrial issues. A modestly overweight position in mortgage-backed securities ("MBS") also contributed to the Fund's results in the bond segment of the portfolio.

What is your outlook?
  At the end of the second quarter in 2007, we held the view that it was likely that the economy was in the late cycle and that we could see the markets reflecting that character. The rise in volatility, the outperformance of growth factors and the relative underperformance of small-cap stocks are all typically characteristic of late-cycle activity. But what remains to be seen is how long the late cycle will last. During the last economic cycle, late-cycle activity was present for years, before the economy ultimately faltered in 2002. Our view is that this pattern could repeat itself. As always, however, we plan to maintain our disciplined investment approach and listen to our models.

MassMutual Premier Value Fund – Portfolio Manager Report

What is the investment objective of the MassMutual Premier Value Fund – and who is the Fund's sub-adviser?
  This Fund seeks to achieve long-term capital appreciation primarily through investment in a portfolio of common stocks of established companies. The Fund's sub-adviser is OFI Institutional Asset Management, Inc. (OFI Institutional).

How did the Fund perform during the 12 months ended October 31, 2007?
  The Fund's Class S shares returned 17.78%, outperforming the 14.55% return of the S&P 500® Index, a widely recognized, unmanaged index representative of common stocks of larger capitalized U.S. companies. The Fund's 17.78% return also exceeded the 10.83% return of the Russell 1000® Value Index, an unmanaged index representative of stocks with greater-than-average value orientation among the stocks of the largest 1000 U.S. companies based on capitalization.

What was the investment background during the period?
  Domestic stocks forged higher during the final months of 2006, reaching some notable milestones along the way. The U.S. dollar weakened slightly during the period, which helped the MSCI® EAFE® Index turn in a double-digit advance. U.S. equity prices showed little change during the first quarter of 2007, despite a significant increase in volatility across the board. The dollar rallied early in the quarter, but gave up those gains later on, losing ground against most major foreign currencies. This depreciation supported the returns of foreign stocks and helped the MSCI EAFE Index return exceed its U.S. counterparts. Most U.S. stock indexes advanced in the second quarter of 2007, as stocks rode a wave of optimism over corporate earnings and overcame short periods of increased volatility associated with investor concerns about soft retail sales, rising interest rates, inflation, the housing market and subprime mortgages.

Most categories of U.S. stocks advanced in the third quarter of 2007 as well. The final results, however, masked a significant spike in market volatility from mid-July through mid-August, as worries about the subprime mortgage market intensified. To help quell these concerns, on August 17, 2007, the Federal Reserve ("Fed") cut the discount rate – the interest rate that regional Fed banks charge banks and financial institutions when they borrow funds on a short-term basis – by 0.50%. The central bank moved even more aggressively to ease monetary conditions at its September 18, 2007 meeting, lowering the federal funds rate by a larger-than-expected 0.50% and cutting the discount rate an additional 0.50%. The federal funds rate is the interest rate that banks and financial institutions charge each other for borrowing funds overnight. As a result, most broad-based U.S. stock indexes were trading near their all-time highs at the end of the third quarter, although, small-cap stocks, as measured by the Russell 2000® Index, lost 3.09% for the period. The MSCI EAFE Index returned 2.18% during this time frame. The Fed followed up its September rate cuts with additional 0.25% federal funds and discount rate reductions at its October 31, 2007 meeting. Most domestic stocks advanced slightly during the month of October, led by the Nasdaq Composite® Index ("Nasdaq"), which returned 5.83%. Foreign stocks also did well, resulting in the MSCI EAFE Index gaining 3.93%.

What factors contributed to the Fund's performance?
  In the fourth quarter of 2006, performance drivers included the consumer staples, utilities and industrials sectors – with consumer staples emerging as the most significant source of added value during the quarter. Utilities also performed well, as several holdings posted double-digit returns. Sectors that primarily detracted from performance relative to the Russell 1000 Value Index were financials, consumer discretionary and energy. In the first quarter of 2007, successful stock selection in the consumer discretionary sector drove relative performance. In energy, the Fund's stock selection generated some performance drag. The largest detractor from relative performance, however, was telecommunication services, where positive stock selection was undermined by a significant underweight position relative to the Russell 1000 Value Index.

During the second quarter of 2007, the Fund's exposure to the industrials and consumer discretionary sectors contributed in large part to its favorable performance. Industrials represented the largest source of added value, with stock selection leading the way. The only detractors, from the sector perspective,


34



MassMutual Premier Value Fund – Portfolio Manager Report (Continued)

were health care and energy. Creating most of the relative drag was weakness in the health care sector, where stock selection effects fueled the underperformance. In the third quarter of 2007, the Fund's outperformance primarily resulted from sector exposures to consumer discretionary, industrials and energy stocks. Offsetting this was less-than-favorable performance from portfolio holdings in the financials and consumer staples sectors. Financials hindered the Fund's performance, as weak stock selection offset some positive effects from the Fund's underweight position in this beleaguered sector. Finally, in October 2007, the Fund's exposure to the financials, consumer discretionary and information technology sectors drove its weak relative returns. Contributors to positive returns, on the other hand, were the Fund's investments in the energy, consumer staples and utilities sectors.

What is your outlook?
  We will continue to keep a watchful eye on the various factors that have had a strong influence over the markets for the past several years – such as oil prices, inflation and Fed policy – as well as those that are somewhat newer to the equation, such as the fallout generated in the real estate markets and the subprime mortgage debacle. While it is impossible to accurately predict how these factors will affect the equity markets in 2008, we have sought to position the Fund to navigate the wide array of variables that may challenge investors throughout the coming year.

MassMutual Premier Enhanced Index Value Fund – Portfolio Manager Report

What is the investment objective of the MassMutual Premier Enhanced Index Value Fund – and who is the Fund's sub-adviser?
  This Fund seeks to outperform the total return performance of its benchmark index, the Russell 1000® Value Index, while maintaining risk characteristics similar to those of the benchmark. The Fund's sub-adviser is Babson Capital Management LLC (Babson Capital).

How did the Fund perform during the 12 months ended October 31, 2007?
  The Fund's Class S shares returned 8.55%, trailing the 10.83% return of the Russell 1000 Value Index, an unmanaged index consisting of those Russell 1000® Index securities (representing the 1000 largest U.S. companies, based on market capitalization) with greater-than-average value orientation that tend to exhibit lower price-to-book ratios and forecasted growth values than securities in the growth universe.

What was the investment background during the period?
  For investors, the final quarter of 2006 was characterized by many conflicting signals. On the one hand, the economic data, led by the housing sector, pointed to an economy that was losing momentum. Housing starts, production, orders and retail sales all pointed toward softer business conditions. On the other hand, the equity markets seemed to ignore the economic data and steadily rose throughout the quarter. U.S. stock prices showed little change during the first quarter of 2007, despite a significant increase in volatility across the board.

The second quarter of 2007 was characterized by a change in investor sentiment concerning economic growth. In April 2007, many indicators were showing stagnant or slowing economic activity. But when most indicators of economic activity later started pointing to growth, the bond market reacted by making a sizable correction, with most long-term bond indexes losing ground for the quarter. The equity market cheered the news; U.S. large-cap indexes rose more than 5% in most cases. The third quarter of 2007 will go down as one of the most volatile quarters in recent history. Remarkably, the market ended up higher, but it required intervention from central banks worldwide and our own Federal Reserve ("Fed") to influence those results. The ongoing deterioration in the housing market finally led to a rise in delinquencies on mortgages. This caused a run on mortgage-backed securities, particularly of the subprime variety. Many funds held these securities in leveraged portfolios, so when their prices dropped, the funds' returns plunged. The contagion spread to the equity markets when some of these funds needed to liquidate equity positions to cover investor redemptions. When the commercial paper markets seized up due to the large amount of asset-backed paper in the system, central banks around the world responded by adding liquidity to the system. On August 17, 2007, the Fed lowered the discount rate – the interest rate that regional Fed banks charge banks and financial institutions when they borrow funds on a short-term basis – by 0.50%. On September 18, 2007, the Fed finally lowered the federal funds rate by 0.50%, simultaneously cutting the discount rate an additional 0.50% and essentially flooding the system with liquidity to avert the perceived crisis. The federal funds rate is the interest rate that banks and financial institutions charge each other for borrowing funds overnight. The Fed followed up its September rate cuts with additional 0.25% federal funds and discount rate reductions at its October 31, 2007 meeting.

The equity market saw modest gains in October, although there was a slight disparity in the performance of growth stocks relative to their value counterparts. For the month, the Russell 1000 Value Index remained essentially flat, while the Russell 1000® Growth Index advanced slightly.

What factors contributed to the Fund's performance?
  During the fourth quarter of 2006, the Fund's value model performed well. The market favored small-cap stocks, with higher beta that were growing rapidly. Momentum and estimate revision factors did not help in stock selection, due to the shift in economic conditions. Value strategies performed well, but had volatile returns, as many of the cheapest names based on the value metrics were in the housing sector – which had been the epicenter of the market's upheaval for the better part of the year. In the first quarter of 2007, the Fund lagged due to increased market volatility, which caused the performance of the models to be erratic. The Fund's value model did particularly poorly, especially in the heavily weighted financial sector, when


38



MassMutual Premier Enhanced Index Value Fund – Portfolio Manager Report (Continued)

news surrounding the deterioration of the subprime markets and defaults associated with that decline drove stock prices down. Growth and momentum factors did better than the value factor.

In the second quarter of 2007, the Fund's value model underperformed due to the poor performance of value factors. The best-performing factors during this period were beta, momentum and estimate revision. In the third quarter of 2007, the model was slow to respond to the shift away from value, and the Fund's relative returns suffered accordingly, even though our research had been emphasizing growth strategies, and we had added some more growth-oriented factors to the model over the past year. Finally, turning to October 2007, we saw the pattern continuing, and the Fund's value strategies underperformed once again.

What is your outlook?
  At the end of the second quarter of 2007, we held the view that it was likely that the economy was in the late cycle and that we could see the markets reflecting that character. The rise in volatility, the outperformance of growth factors and the relative underperformance of small-cap stocks are all typically characteristic of late-cycle activity. But what remains to be seen is how long the late cycle will last. During the last economic cycle, late-cycle activity was present for years before the economy ultimately faltered in 2002. Our view is that this pattern could repeat itself. As always, however, we plan to maintain our disciplined investment approach and listen to our models.

MassMutual Premier Enhanced Index Core Equity Fund – Portfolio Manager Report

What is the investment objective of the MassMutual Premier Enhanced Index Core Equity Fund – and who is the Fund's sub-adviser?
  This Fund seeks to outperform the total return performance of its benchmark index, the S&P 500® Index, while maintaining risk characteristics similar to those of the benchmark. The Fund's sub-adviser is Babson Capital Management LLC (Babson Capital).

How did the Fund perform during the 12 months ended October 31, 2007?
  The Fund's Class S shares returned 12.48%, underperforming the 14.55% return of the S&P 500 Index, a widely recognized, unmanaged index representative of common stocks of larger capitalized U.S. companies.

What was the investment background during the period?
  For investors, the final quarter of 2006 was characterized by many conflicting signals. On the one hand, the economic data, led by the housing sector, pointed to an economy that was losing momentum. Housing starts, production, orders and retail sales all pointed toward softer business conditions. On the other hand, the equity markets seemed to ignore the economic data and steadily rose throughout the quarter. U.S. stock prices showed little change during the first quarter of 2007, despite a significant increase in volatility across the board.

The second quarter of 2007 was characterized by a change in investor sentiment concerning economic growth. In April 2007, many indicators were showing stagnant or slowing economic activity. But when most indicators of economic activity later started pointing to growth, the bond market reacted by making a sizable correction, with most long-term bond indexes losing ground for the quarter. The equity market cheered the news; U.S. large-cap indexes rose more than 5% in most cases. The third quarter of 2007 will go down as one of the most volatile quarters in recent history. Remarkably, the market ended up higher, but it required intervention from central banks worldwide and our own Federal Reserve ("Fed") to influence those results. The ongoing deterioration in the housing market finally led to a rise in delinquencies on mortgages. This caused a run on mortgage-backed securities, particularly of the subprime variety. Many funds held these securities in leveraged portfolios, so when their prices dropped, the funds' returns plunged. The contagion spread to the equity markets when some of these funds needed to liquidate equity positions to cover investor redemptions. When the commercial paper markets seized up due to the large amount of asset-backed paper in the system, central banks around the world responded by adding liquidity to the system. On August 17, 2007, the Fed lowered the discount rate – the interest rate that regional Fed banks charge banks and financial institutions when they borrow funds on a short-term basis – by 0.50%. On September 18, 2007, the Fed finally lowered the federal funds rate by 0.50%, simultaneously cutting the discount rate an additional 0.50% and essentially flooding the system with liquidity to avert the perceived crisis. The federal funds rate is the interest rate that banks and financial institutions charge each other for borrowing funds overnight. The Fed followed up its September rate cuts with additional 0.25% federal funds and discount rate reductions at its October 31, 2007 meeting.

The equity market saw modest gains in October 2007, although there was a large disparity in the performance of growth stocks relative to their value counterparts. For the month, the Russell 1000® Value Index remained essentially flat, while the Russell 1000® Growth Index advanced slightly.

What factors contributed to the Fund's performance?
  During the fourth quarter of 2006, the Fund's models performed well. The market favored small-cap stocks, with higher beta that were growing rapidly. Momentum and estimate revision factors did not help in stock selection, due to the shift in economic conditions. In the first quarter of 2007, the Fund's core equity model was down slightly. The financial sector, which has a relatively large weight in the value universe, struggled against news of continuing deterioration of the subprime mortgage market and defaults associated with that decline. Growth and momentum factors generally did well, but there was no clear pattern of effective factors across the market.


42



MassMutual Premier Enhanced Index Core Equity Fund – Portfolio Manager Report (Continued)

In the second quarter of 2007, the Fund's core model underperformed due to the poor performance of value factors. The best-performing factors during this period were beta, momentum and estimate revision. In the third quarter of 2007, the equity market responded to the Fed rate cuts in predictable fashion by rising over 10% off the quarter's earlier lows. The stocks that led the charge were those with heavy exposure to overseas economic activity. These companies are essentially large, growth-oriented and have been favored by investors for the past year. To translate this to factor performance, the factors that outperformed were growth, momentum and large capitalization. Value strategies performed poorly through October 2007.

What is your outlook?
  At the end of the second quarter of 2007, we held the view that it was likely that the economy was in the late cycle and that we could see the markets reflecting that character. The rise in volatility, the outperformance of growth factors and the relative underperformance of small-cap stocks are all typically characteristic of late-cycle activity. But what remains to be seen is how long the late cycle will last. During the last economic cycle, late-cycle activity was present for years, before the economy ultimately faltered in 2002. Our view is that this pattern could repeat itself. As always, however, we plan to maintain our disciplined investment approach and listen to our models.

MassMutual Premier Main Street Fund – Portfolio Manager Report

What is the investment objective of the MassMutual Premier Main Street Fund – and who is the Fund's sub-adviser?
  This Fund seeks a high total return by investing mainly in common stocks of U.S. companies of different capitalization ranges, presently focusing on large-capitalization issuers. The Fund's sub-adviser is OFI Institutional Asset Management, Inc. (OFI Institutional).

How did the Fund perform during the 12 months ended October 31, 2007?
  The Fund's Class S shares returned 14.74%, outpacing the 14.55% return of the S&P 500® Index, a widely recognized, unmanaged index representative of common stocks of larger capitalized U.S. companies.

What was the investment background during the period?
  Domestic stocks forged higher during the final months of 2006, reaching some notable milestones along the way. The Dow Jones Industrial AverageSM ("the Dow") posted a series of new highs, and the S&P 500 Index broke the 1,400 level by year-end. Small-cap stocks, as evidenced by the Russell 2000® Index, also ended the year strongly, as did the technology-heavy Nasdaq Composite® Index ("Nasdaq"). U.S. stock prices showed little change during the first quarter of 2007, despite a significant increase in volatility across the board.

The U.S. stock market saw strong returns in the second quarter of 2007, despite inflation fears, which stoked rising yields on 10-year Treasury notes. The Federal Reserve ("Fed") held the federal funds rate steady for the eighth consecutive meeting in June 2007, as the yield on 10-year Treasury Notes reached a five-year high (5.30%) and the economy added more jobs than expected. U.S. equities demonstrated strength once again in the eventful third quarter of 2007, despite volatility that had not been experienced in quite some time. The problems in the subprime mortgage market spread to credit markets around the world, with spillover effects in the U.S. equity markets. Consequently, the Fed dropped the discount rate by 0.50% on August 17, 2007, then cut both the discount and federal funds rates by 0.50% on September 18, 2007 – which allowed the equity markets to shrug off some doldrums and post solid gains. The federal funds rate is the interest rate that banks and financial institutions charge each other for borrowing funds overnight. The Fed followed up its September rate cuts with additional 0.25% federal funds and discount rate reductions at its October 31, 2007 meeting. Most domestic stocks advanced slightly during the month of October, led by the Nasdaq, which returned 5.83%. The Lehman Brothers® Aggregate Bond Index also gained slightly.

What factors contributed to the Fund's performance?
  In the fourth quarter of 2006, the Fund's overweight position in mega-cap stocks relative to the benchmark S&P 500 Index ("the benchmark") helped drive returns. Favorable stock selection within each market capitalization category also modestly added to performance. Conversely, hampering the Fund's performance was its underweight position in the strong-performing mid-cap stock category. With respect to economic sectors, the best-performing sectors relative to the benchmark were consumer staples, energy and financials. The weakest sectors on a relative basis were consumer discretionary and information technology. In the first quarter of 2007, the Fund's underweight position in mid-cap stocks helped performance slightly in March, as did the absence of real estate investment trusts ("REITs") from the Fund's portfolio. Favorable stock selection in the large-cap category was offset by weaker results in mid caps.

As the second quarter of 2007 came to a close, the Fund held its most significant overweight position versus the benchmark in the information technology, health care and energy sectors. Industrials became the most underweight sector in the portfolio relative to the benchmark, followed by financials and utilities. In the third quarter of 2007, the Fund's returns declined as the level of outperformance between mega caps and the worst-performing micro caps was substantial. During this time frame, we increased the amount of the portfolio invested in mega caps to almost 63%, while reducing large caps to about 32%. At the same time, we increased mid caps to slightly more than 5% from practically zero. As the third quarter of 2007 wound down, the Fund had a mega-cap tilt relative to the S&P 500 Index.


46



MassMutual Premier Main Street Fund – Portfolio Manager Report (Continued)

The Fund had a challenging month in October 2007 relative to the benchmark, as our top-down (market capitalization) model and bottom-up (individual stock selection) models detracted from performance. In particular, our overweight position in mega caps hampered the Fund's returns. In addition, despite a substantial amount of positive performance from our large overweight position in the technology sector, our overweight position in financials detracted materially from performance, as the large money center banks and brokerages were hit hard by fallout from the mortgage sector. Additionally, stock selection within the energy sector hampered performance for the month.

What is your outlook?
  As we stated earlier this year, our models, which had been indicating that the prolonged cycle of small-cap outperformance was likely coming to an end, have been proven correct. Market leadership has changed, as mega, large and mid caps have recently outperformed small and micro caps. During the first nine months of 2007, mega caps outperformed all other groups, including mid caps. If we are indeed entering a period of increased risk aversion, it is our view that investors will continue to seek safety in mega-cap issues. Consequently, the Fund has moved out of many small positions in mid- and small-cap stocks in order to concentrate more resources in large- and mega-cap companies.

MassMutual Premier Capital Appreciation Fund – Portfolio Manager Report

What is the investment objective of the MassMutual Premier Capital Appreciation Fund – and who is the Fund's sub-adviser?
  This Fund seeks long-term capital appreciation by investing mainly in common stocks of "growth companies." These may be newer companies or established companies of any capitalization range that the Fund's sub-adviser, OppenheimerFunds, Inc. (OFI), believes may appreciate in value over the long term.

How did the Fund perform during the 12 months ended October 31, 2007?
  The Fund's Class S shares returned 22.71%, outpacing the 19.23% return of the Russell 1000® Growth Index, an unmanaged index consisting of those Russell 1000 securities (representing the 1000 largest U.S. companies based on market capitalization) with greater-than-average growth orientation that tend to exhibit higher price-to-book ratios and forecasted growth values than securities in the value universe. The Fund also exceeded the 14.55% return of the S&P 500® Index, a widely recognized, unmanaged index representative of common stocks of larger capitalized U.S. companies.

As we originally noted in the Fund's April 30, 2007 semi-annual report, going forward, the Fund's performance will be compared to the Russell 1000 Growth Index rather than the S&P 500 Index because the Russell 1000 Growth Index more closely represents the Fund's investment strategy.

What was the investment background during the period?
  Domestic stocks forged higher during the final months of 2006, reaching some notable milestones along the way. The U.S. dollar weakened slightly during the period, which helped the MSCI® EAFE® Index turn in a double-digit advance. U.S. equity prices showed little change during the first quarter of 2007, despite a significant increase in volatility across the board. The dollar rallied early in the quarter, but gave up those gains later on, losing ground against most major foreign currencies. This depreciation supported the returns of foreign stocks and helped the MSCI EAFE Index return exceed its U.S. counterparts. Most U.S. stock indexes advanced in the second quarter of 2007, as stocks rode a wave of optimism over corporate earnings and overcame short periods of increased volatility associated with investor concerns about soft retail sales, rising interest rates, inflation, the housing market and subprime mortgages.

Most categories of U.S. stocks advanced in the third quarter of 2007 as well. The final results, however, masked a significant spike in market volatility from mid-July through mid-August, as worries about the subprime mortgage market intensified. To help quell these concerns, on August 17, 2007, the Federal Reserve ("Fed") cut the discount rate – the interest rate that regional Fed banks charge banks and financial institutions when they borrow funds on a short-term basis – by 0.50%. The Fed moved even more aggressively to ease monetary conditions at its September 18, 2007 meeting, lowering the federal funds rate by a larger-than-expected 0.50% and cutting the discount rate an additional 0.50%. The federal funds rate is the interest rate that banks and financial institutions charge each other for borrowing funds overnight. As a result, most broad-based U.S. stock indexes were trading near their all-time highs at the end of the third quarter, although small-cap stocks, as measured by the Russell 2000® Index, lost 3.09% for the period. The MSCI EAFE Index returned 2.18% during this time frame. The Fed followed up its September rate cuts with additional 0.25% federal funds and discount rate reductions at its October 31, 2007 meeting. Most domestic stocks advanced slightly during the month of October, led by the Nasdaq Composite® Index ("Nasdaq"), which returned 5.83%. Foreign stocks also did well, resulting in the MSCI EAFE Index gaining 3.93%.

What factors contributed to the Fund's performance?
  During the final months of 2006, information technology and consumer discretionary were the portfolio's best-performing sectors on an absolute basis. Relative to the benchmark Russell 1000 Growth Index, however, most sectors slightly detracted from overall performance – except for telecommunication services, materials, utilities and industrials, which were essentially flat. Turning to the first quarter of 2007, information technology, energy and health care were the best-performing sectors on a relative basis. Conversely, less-than-favorable stock selection in the telecommunications and financials sectors impeded the Fund's relative performance.

During the second quarter of 2007, favorable stock selection in the energy and materials sectors fueled the Fund's relative results. An overweight position in the energy sector also contributed. Relative to the benchmark, however, the worst-performing sectors were information technology, industrials and consumer discretionary. On an absolute basis, information technology was the portfolio's best-performing sector; however, relative to the benchmark, the Fund underperformed due to stock selection. Underperformance in both industrials and consumer discretionary also came from stock selection rather than sector weights. In the third quarter of 2007, consumer discretionary, information technology and health care were the portfolio's best-performing sectors relative to the benchmark. This was mainly the result of stock selection, although an overweight position in information technology and an underweight position in consumer discretionary also contributed. The worst-performing sectors relative to the benchmark were financials and consumer staples.

During October 2007, the Fund's relative performance was hindered by an overweight position in telecommunication services and stock selection in the consumer discretionary sector. On a positive note, our stock selection in the industrials group contributed to performance.

What is your outlook?
  As we head into a profit deceleration environment and a slowing economic cycle in the United States, our view is that investors tend to pay a premium for companies that can exhibit growth. Furthermore, relative valuations for both large-cap and growth stocks, in particular, stand at appealing levels compared to smaller-cap and value-oriented issues. That being said, we nevertheless caution that the recent increased volatility in the markets presents numerous challenges. We believe, however, that we have positioned the Fund to navigate the wide array of market conditions that investors may face throughout the coming months.

MassMutual Premier Core Growth Fund – Portfolio Manager Report

What is the investment objective of the MassMutual Premier Core Growth Fund – and who is the Fund's sub-adviser?
  This Fund seeks to achieve long-term capital and income growth through investment primarily in common stocks of companies having a large or mid-size market capitalization. Current yield is secondary to the long-term growth objective. The Fund's sub-adviser is OFI Institutional Asset Management, Inc. (OFI Institutional).

How did the Fund perform during the 12 months ended October 31, 2007?
  The Fund's Class S shares returned 24.38%, outperforming the 19.23% return of the Russell 1000® Growth Index, an unmanaged index that contains stocks with a greater-than-average growth orientation among the stocks of the 1000 largest U.S. companies based on total market capitalization. The Fund also outpaced the 14.55% return of the S&P 500® Index, a widely recognized, unmanaged index representative of common stocks of larger capitalized U.S. companies.

As we originally noted in the Fund's April 30, 2007 semi-annual report, going forward, the Fund's performance will be compared to the Russell 1000 Growth Index rather than the S&P 500 Index because the Russell 1000 Growth Index more closely represents the Fund's investment strategy.

What was the investment background during the period?
  Domestic stocks forged higher during the final months of 2006, reaching some notable milestones along the way. The U.S. dollar weakened slightly during the period, which helped the MSCI® EAFE® Index turn in a double-digit advance. U.S. equity prices showed little change during the first quarter of 2007, despite a significant increase in volatility across the board. The dollar rallied early in the quarter, but gave up those gains later on, losing ground against most major foreign currencies. This depreciation supported the returns of foreign stocks and helped the MSCI EAFE Index return exceed its U.S. counterparts. Most U.S. stock indexes advanced in the second quarter of 2007, as stocks rode a wave of optimism over corporate earnings and overcame short periods of increased volatility associated with investor concerns about soft retail sales, rising interest rates, inflation, the housing market and subprime mortgages.

Most categories of U.S. stocks advanced in the third quarter of 2007 as well. The final results, however, masked a significant spike in market volatility from mid-July through mid-August, as worries about the subprime mortgage market intensified. To help quell these concerns, on August 17, 2007, the Federal Reserve ("Fed") cut the discount rate – the interest rate that regional Fed banks charge banks and financial institutions when they borrow funds on a short-term basis – by 0.50%. The Fed moved even more aggressively to ease monetary conditions at its September 18, 2007 meeting, lowering the federal funds rate by a larger-than-expected 0.50% and cutting the discount rate an additional 0.50%. The federal funds rate is the interest rate that banks and financial institutions charge each other for borrowing funds overnight. As a result, most broad-based U.S. stock indexes were trading near their all-time highs at the end of the third quarter, although small-cap stocks, as measured by the Russell 2000® Index, lost 3.09% for the period. The MSCI EAFE Index returned 2.18% during this time frame. The Fed followed up its September rate cuts with additional 0.25% federal funds and discount rate reductions at its October 31, 2007 meeting. Most domestic stocks advanced slightly during the month of October, led by the Nasdaq Composite® Index ("Nasdaq"), which returned 5.83%. Foreign stocks also did well, resulting in the MSCI EAFE Index gaining 3.93%.

Relative to the benchmark Russell 1000 Growth Index, however, most sectors slightly detracted from overall performance – except for telecommunication services, materials, utilities and industrials, which were essentially flat. Turning to the first quarter of 2007, information technology, energy and health care were the best-performing sectors on a relative basis. Conversely, less-than-favorable stock selection in the telecommunications and financials sectors impeded the Fund's relative performance.

MassMutual Premier Enhanced Index Growth Fund – Portfolio Manager Report

What is the investment objective of the MassMutual Premier Enhanced Index Growth Fund – and who is the Fund's sub-adviser?
  This Fund seeks to outperform the total return performance of its benchmark index, the Russell 1000® Growth Index, while maintaining risk characteristics similar to those of the benchmark. The Fund's sub-adviser is Babson Capital Management LLC (Babson Capital).

How did the Fund perform during the 12 months ended October 31, 2007?
  The Fund's Class S shares returned 18.20%, underperforming the 19.23% return of the Russell 1000 Growth Index, an unmanaged index consisting of those Russell 1000® Index securities (representing the 1000 largest U.S. companies, based on market capitalization) with greater-than-average growth orientation that tend to exhibit higher price-to-book ratios and forecasted growth values than securities in the value universe.

What was the investment background during the period?
  For investors, the final quarter of 2006 was characterized by many conflicting signals. On the one hand, the economic data, led by the housing sector, pointed to an economy that was losing momentum. Housing starts, production, orders and retail sales all pointed toward softer business conditions. On the other hand, the equity markets seemed to ignore the economic data and steadily rose throughout the quarter. U.S. stock prices showed little change during the first quarter of 2007, despite a significant increase in volatility across the board.

The second quarter of 2007 was characterized by a change in investor sentiment concerning economic growth. In April 2007, many indicators were showing stagnant or slowing economic activity. But when most indicators of economic activity later started pointing to growth, the bond market reacted by making a sizable correction, with most long-term bond indexes losing ground for the quarter. The equity market cheered the news; U.S. large-cap indexes rose more than 5% in most cases. The third quarter of 2007 will go down as one of the most volatile quarters in recent history. Remarkably, the market ended up higher, but it required intervention from central banks worldwide and our own Federal Reserve ("Fed") to influence those results. The ongoing deterioration in the housing market finally led to a rise in delinquencies on mortgages. This caused a run on mortgage-backed securities, particularly of the subprime variety. Many funds held these securities in leveraged portfolios, so when their prices dropped, the funds' returns plunged. The contagion spread to the equity markets when some of these funds needed to liquidate equity positions to cover investor redemptions. When the commercial paper markets seized up due to the large amount of asset-backed paper in the system, central banks around the world responded by adding liquidity to the system. On August 17, 2007, the Fed lowered the discount rate – the interest rate that regional Fed banks charge banks and financial institutions when they borrow funds on a short-term basis – by 0.50%. On September 18, 2007, the Fed finally lowered the federal funds rate by 0.50%, simultaneously cutting the discount rate an additional 0.50% and essentially flooding the system with liquidity to avert the perceived crisis. The federal funds rate is the interest rate that banks and financial institutions charge each other for borrowing funds overnight. The Fed followed up its September rate cuts with additional 0.25% federal funds and discount rate reductions at its October 31, 2007 meeting.

The equity market saw modest gains in October, although there was a large disparity in the performance of growth stocks relative to their value counterparts. For the month, the Russell 1000® Value Index remained essentially flat, while the Russell 1000 Growth Index advanced slightly.

What factors contributed to the Fund's performance?
  During the fourth quarter of 2006, the Fund's growth model performed well. The market favored small-cap stocks, with higher beta that were growing rapidly. Momentum and estimate revision factors did not help in stock selection, due to the shift in economic conditions. In the first quarter of 2007, the Fund's growth model once again had favorable returns. Growth and momentum factors generally did well, but there was no clear pattern of effective factors across the market. Value factors performed


58



MassMutual Premier Enhanced Index Growth Fund – Portfolio Manager Report (Continued)

poorly, especially in the financial sector, when news surrounding the deterioration of the subprime markets and defaults associated with that decline drove stock prices down. Growth and momentum factors aided performance most notably in the health care sector.

In the second quarter of 2007, the Fund's core and value models underperformed due to the poor performance of value factors during the period. The best-performing factors were beta, momentum and estimate revision. These factors generally do well in periods when the market moves higher. Most factors that favor stocks with prudent capital use, such as dividend yield and share buyback, underperformed. Turning to the third quarter of 2007, the Fund struggled when the model was slow to respond to the shift toward growth, despite the fact that our research had been emphasizing growth strategies, and we had added some more growth-oriented factors to the model over the past year. Consequently, the Fund's relative returns suffered. Finally, in October 2007, the Fund's growth factor contributed to its results for the month.

What is your outlook?
  At the end of the second quarter of 2007, we held the view that it was likely that the economy was in the late cycle and that we could see the markets reflecting that character. The rise in volatility, the outperformance of growth factors and the relative underperformance of small-cap stocks are all typically characteristic of late-cycle activity. But what remains to be seen is how long the late cycle will last. During the last economic cycle, late-cycle activity was present for years before the economy ultimately faltered in 2002. Our view is that this pattern could repeat itself. As always, however, we plan to maintain our disciplined investment approach and listen to our models.

MassMutual Premier Discovery Value Fund – Portfolio Manager Report

What is the investment objective of the MassMutual Premier Discovery Value Fund – and who is the Fund's sub-adviser?
  This Fund seeks long-term capital appreciation by investing mainly in stocks of U.S. issuers having a market capitalization up to $13 billion. This includes both small-cap stocks (stocks of issuers that have a market capitalization under $3 billion) and mid-cap stocks (stocks of issuers having a capitalization between $3 billion and $13 billion). The Fund's sub-adviser is OFI Institutional Asset Management, Inc. (OFI Institutional).

How did the Fund perform during the 12 months ended October 31, 2007?
  The Fund's Class S shares returned 22.53%, significantly outpacing the 9.73% return of the Russell Midcap® Value Index, a widely recognized, unmanaged index which measures the performance of those Russell Midcap companies with lower price-to-book ratios and lower forecasted growth values. The stocks are also members of the Russell 1000® Value Index. The Fund also widely exceeded the 4.63% return of the Russell 2500® Value Index, an unmanaged index representative of common stocks of small- and mid-capitalization U.S. companies with lower price-to-book ratios and lower forecasted growth values.

What was the investment background during the period?
  Domestic stocks forged higher during the final months of 2006, reaching some notable milestones along the way. The Dow Jones Industrial AverageSM ("the Dow") posted a series of new highs, and the S&P 500® Index broke the 1,400 level by year-end. Small-cap stocks, as evidenced by the Russell 2000® Index, also ended the year strongly. For its part, the technology-heavy Nasdaq Composite® Index ("Nasdaq") also did well in the fourth quarter of 2006. U.S. stock prices showed little change during the first quarter of 2007, despite a significant increase in volatility across the board.

The U.S. stock market saw strong returns in the second quarter of 2007, despite inflation fears, which stoked rising yields on 10-year Treasury notes. The Federal Reserve ("Fed") held the federal funds rate steady for the eighth consecutive meeting in June, as the yield on 10-year Treasury Notes reached a five-year high (5.30%) and the economy added more jobs than expected. U.S. equities demonstrated strength once again in the eventful third quarter of 2007, despite an increased level of volatility. The problems in the subprime mortgage market spread to credit markets around the world, with spillover effects in the U.S. equity markets. Consequently, the Fed dropped the discount rate by 0.50% on August 17, 2007, then cut both the discount and federal funds rates by 0.50% on September 18, 2007 – which allowed the equity markets to shrug off some doldrums and post solid gains. The federal funds rate is the interest rate that banks and financial institutions charge each other for borrowing funds overnight. The Fed followed up its September rate cuts with additional 0.25% federal funds and discount rate reductions at its October 31, 2007 meeting. Most domestic stocks advanced slightly during the month of October, led by the Nasdaq, which returned 5.83%. The Lehman Brothers® Aggregate Bond Index also gained slightly.

What factors contributed to the Fund's performance?
  The top contributing sectors to the Fund's relative performance in the fourth quarter of 2006 were information technology, consumer discretionary and materials. Detracting from performance were health care, telecommunications services and energy. In the materials sector, most of our holdings posted double-digit returns, as steel and metal-related stocks moved up on market consolidation rumors. Detracting most significantly from relative performance was health care. In the first quarter of 2007, from the sector perspective, the top performers on a relative basis were materials, industrials and financials. The Fund held no materially weak sectors. The Fund's underweight position in financials relative to the Russell Midcap Value Index was a positive, as the broader group fell on subprime mortgage-related news. Weakness in the portfolio was thinly spread throughout, as no single sector created an aggregate drag on returns.


62



MassMutual Premier Discovery Value Fund – Portfolio Manager Report (Continued)

Turning to the second quarter of 2007, the majority of the Fund's outperformance was driven by the portfolio's exposure to the industrials, financials and consumer discretionary sectors. Conversely, the top detracting sectors were health care and information technology. Overall, strong performance was widespread, as the portfolio outperformed in eight out of 10 sectors. In the third quarter of 2007, the Fund outperformed in seven out of 10 sectors. Leading the way were information technology, consumer discretionary and industrials. Conversely, the sectors that provided a drag on the Fund's results were consumer staples, financials and utilities. Detracting most significantly were our stock picks within the financials sector. In October 2007, the Fund's performance was driven by its exposures to the information technology, materials and consumer staples sectors. Offsetting some of this strength was weakness in consumer discretionary and utilities.

What is your outlook?
  We will continue to keep a watchful eye on the various factors that have had a strong influence over the markets for the past several years – such as oil prices, inflation and Fed policy – as well as those that are somewhat newer to the equation, such as the fallout generated in the real estate markets and the subprime mortgage debacle. While it is impossible to accurately predict how these factors will affect the equity markets in 2008, we have sought to position the Fund to navigate the wide array of variables that may challenge investors throughout the coming year.

MassMutual Premier Small Capitalization Value Fund – Portfolio Manager Report

What is the investment objective of the MassMutual Premier Small Capitalization Value Fund – and who is the Fund's sub-adviser?
  This Fund seeks to achieve long-term capital appreciation primarily through investment in small to medium-size companies. The Fund's sub-adviser is OFI Institutional Asset Management, Inc. (OFI Institutional).

How did the Fund perform during the 12 months ended October 31, 2007?
  The Fund's Class S shares returned 4.23%, exceeding the 2.05% return of the Russell 2000® Value Index, an unmanaged index that measures the performance of those Russell 2000 companies with lower price-to-book ratios and lower forecasted growth values. On the other hand, the Fund's 4.23% return trailed the 9.28% return of the Russell 2000® Index, a widely recognized, unmanaged index representative of common stocks of smaller capitalized U.S. companies.

What was the investment background during the period?
  Domestic stocks forged higher during the final months of 2006, reaching some notable milestones along the way. The Dow Jones Industrial AverageSM ("the Dow") posted a series of new highs, and the S&P 500® Index broke the 1,400 level by year-end. Small-cap stocks, as evidenced by the Russell 2000 Index, also ended the year strongly. For its part, the technology-heavy Nasdaq Composite® Index ("Nasdaq") also did well in the fourth quarter. U.S. stock prices showed little change during the first quarter of 2007, despite a significant increase in volatility across the board.

Subprime mortgage concerns seemed to overshadow almost all other economic and political activity in the second quarter of 2007, as fear of contagion to other segments of the mortgage market and the economy at large weighed heavily on the minds of investors. These mounting subprime worries exerted downward pressure on the prices of many financial and consumer discretionary stocks. Nonetheless, the overall equity markets fared favorably across all sizes and styles. The cloud that hung over the bond market was much darker, and investor concerns seemed to impact the entire credit spectrum. In the third quarter of 2007, the markets became more volatile. But while the market environment was more volatile than usual, by quarter-end – with help from the Federal Reserve ("Fed") – investors had shrugged off the worries that had hampered global financial markets only a few weeks prior. The summer sell-off was severe, but shares of companies with solid fundamentals rebounded. The Fed followed up its September rate cuts with additional 0.25% federal funds and discount rate reductions at its October 31, 2007 meeting. Most domestic stocks advanced slightly during the month of October, led by the Nasdaq, which returned 5.83%. The Lehman Brothers® Aggregate Bond Index also gained slightly.

What factors contributed to the Fund's performance?
  For the fourth quarter of 2006, materials proved to be the best-performing sector of the Russell 2000 Value Index ("the Index"), with consumer staples and consumer discretionary taking second and third place, respectively. Financials underperformed, hurt primarily by banks outside New York City. The Index reported positive performance in nine of its ten sectors for the first quarter of 2007, with materials again finishing as the best-performing sector, followed by consumer staples and health care. The portfolio held a greater position (relative to the Index) in consumer staples and health care stocks, but a lower relative position in materials stocks. The Index's weakest sectors were financials, utilities and telecommunication services. The portfolio had below-Index exposure in financials and utilities, but a higher weighting in telecommunication services.

Sector performance was favorable for the portfolio for the second quarter of 2007, with seven of the ten economic sectors posting positive relative results. Both stock selection and allocation decisions were cumulatively positive. The industrials and information technology sectors made the biggest contribution to performance. By contrast, financials was the portfolio's weakest sector. Turning to the third quarter of 2007, stock selection was the primary driver of the Fund's outperformance, with the largest contributions coming from the industrial and consumer discretionary sectors – although stock selection in the consumer staples, financials and materials sectors detracted from relative returns.


66



MassMutual Premier Small Capitalization Value Fund – Portfolio Manager Report (Continued)

In October 2007, the best-performing sector of the Index was telecommunication services, followed by health care and energy. The portfolio held overweight positions in telecommunication services and health care stocks, and an underweight position in energy stocks. The weakest sectors of the Index during the month were financials, consumer discretionary and consumer staples. The portfolio held a lower weighting than the Index in financials, but an overweight position in consumer discretionary and consumer staples stocks.

What is your outlook?
  These are worrisome times for investors. Economic growth in the U.S. has slowed. Additionally, rising inflation is still a concern, as commodity prices have remained strong, while the housing market has remained weak. Finally, the U.S. dollar is weaker, the credit crunch has slowed new credit formation, and corporate earnings growth is showing signs of slowing. Aside from the current macroeconomic picture, small-cap stocks are no longer deeply discounted relative to their large-cap counterparts. On the other hand, the special dynamic of the small-cap market has not changed. The greatest added value in small-cap investing tends to come from rigorous fundamental research. Consequently, we will continue to seek companies with superior risk-reward opportunities.

MassMutual Premier Main Street Small Cap Fund – Portfolio Manager Report

What is the investment objective of the MassMutual Premier Main Street Small Cap Fund – and who is the Fund's sub-adviser?
  The Fund Seeks capital appreciation by investing mainly in common stocks of small-capitalization ("small-cap") U.S. companies that the Fund's sub-adviser, OFI Institutional Asset Management, Inc. (OFI Institutional), believes have favorable business trends or prospects. These may include "growth" and/or "value" common stocks and other equity securities.

How did the Fund perform during the 12 months ended October 31, 2007?
  The Fund's Class S shares returned 10.41%, exceeding the 9.28% return of the Russell 2000® Index, a widely recognized, unmanaged index representative of common stocks of smaller capitalized U.S. companies.

What was the investment background during the period?
  Domestic stocks forged higher during the final months of 2006, reaching some notable milestones along the way. The Dow Jones Industrial AverageSM ("the Dow") posted a series of new highs, and the S&P 500® Index broke the 1,400 level by year-end. Small-cap stocks, as evidenced by the Russell 2000 Index, also ended the year strongly. For its part, the technology-heavy Nasdaq Composite® Index ("Nasdaq") also did well in the fourth quarter of 2006. U.S. stock prices showed little change during the first quarter of 2007, despite a significant increase in volatility across the board.

The U.S. stock market saw strong returns in the second quarter of 2007, despite inflation fears, which stoked rising yields on 10-year Treasury notes. The Federal Reserve ("Fed") held the federal funds rate steady for the eighth consecutive meeting in June 2007, as the yield on 10-year Treasury Notes reached a five-year high (5.30%) and the economy added more jobs than expected. U.S. equities demonstrated strength once again in the eventful third quarter of 2007, despite volatility that had not been experienced in quite some time. The problems in the subprime mortgage market spread to credit markets around the world, with spillover effects in the U.S. equity markets. Consequently, the Fed dropped the discount rate by 0.50% on August 17, 2007, then cut both the discount and federal funds rates by 0.50% on September 18, 2007 – which allowed the equity markets to shrug off some doldrums and post solid gains. The Fed followed up its September rate cuts with additional 0.25% federal funds and discount rate reductions at its October 31, 2007 meeting. Most domestic stocks advanced slightly during the month of October, led by the Nasdaq, which returned 5.83%. The Lehman Brothers® Aggregate Bond Index also gained slightly.

What factors contributed to the Fund's performance?
  The Fund underperformed the Russell 2000 Index ("the benchmark") in the fourth quarter of 2006, as micro-cap stocks, an underweight position in the Fund relative to the benchmark, were the best performers in December. With respect to sectors, the best performers relative to the benchmark were materials, financials and industrials. The weakest sectors on a relative basis were consumer discretionary, energy, consumer staples and information technology. The Fund outperformed the Russell 2000 Index in the first quarter of 2007, and we increased portfolio's allocations to financials and utilities and decreased the Fund's weightings in materials and information technology.

As of the end of the second quarter of 2007, the Fund held its most significant overweight position versus the benchmark in the consumer discretionary sector, followed by materials. The Fund remained most underweight relative to the benchmark in financials and health care. At the end of June 2007, the Fund was positioned slightly towards value and larger cap with respect to company size. The Fund had a challenging third quarter of 2007, as our top-down market capitalization model boosted performance, whereas our bottom-up stock ranking models hampered performance. The portfolio's active overweight position in larger companies in the small-cap universe contributed positively to returns, as our models have been favoring larger versus smaller for quite some time. The Fund's trading in the quarter resulted in increased weightings in the technology sector and decreased weightings in the financials and utilities sectors.


70



MassMutual Premier Main Street Small Cap Fund – Portfolio Manager Report (Continued)

In October 2007, the Fund had a strong month relative to its peers, but underperformed its benchmark, as our top-down market capitalization model hampered performance, while our bottom-up stock ranking models contributed to our relative performance. The portfolio's active overweight position in larger companies in the small-cap universe detracted from performance, as larger stocks trailed smaller stocks in our small-cap universe. Our multi-factor, bottom-up stock selection models proved helpful relative to the Fund's peers, but detracted from the Fund's relative performance. From a sector allocation standpoint, the portfolio's underweight position in financials and overweight in technology stocks benefited returns. Finally, despite positive stock selection in the consumer discretionary and industrials sectors, poor stock selection within both the financials and technology sectors hampered the Fund's performance relative to the benchmark.

What is your outlook?
  The cycle of small-cap outperformance, which started in 1999 and lasted more than seven years, appears to have ended. Indeed, mega-, large- and mid-cap stocks have generally outperformed small- and micro-cap stocks since the end of January 2006, with mega-cap stocks beating all others. While volatility has increased and smaller stocks are still capable of sharp rallies, our models predict they do not have the potential for substantial or sustained outperformance over the next 12 months.

MassMutual Premier Small Company Opportunities Fund – Portfolio Manager Report

What is the investment objective of the MassMutual Premier Small Company Opportunities Fund – and who is the Fund's sub-adviser?
  This Fund seeks to achieve long-term capital appreciation through investment primarily in common stocks of smaller, faster-growing companies whose securities at the time of purchase are considered by the Fund's sub-adviser, OFI Institutional Asset Management, Inc. (OFI Institutional), to be realistically valued.

How did the Fund perform during the 12 months ended October 31, 2007?
  The Fund's Class S shares returned 10.45%, outperforming the 9.28% return of the Russell 2000® Index, a widely recognized, unmanaged index representative of common stocks of smaller capitalized U.S. companies.

What was the investment background during the period?
  Domestic stocks forged higher during the final months of 2006, reaching some notable milestones along the way. The Dow Jones Industrial AverageSM ("the Dow") posted a series of new highs, and the S&P 500® Index broke the 1,400 level by year-end. Small-cap stocks, as evidenced by the Russell 2000 Index, also ended the year strongly. For its part, the technology-heavy Nasdaq Composite® Index ("Nasdaq") also did well in the fourth quarter of 2006. U.S. stock prices showed little change during the first quarter of 2007, despite a significant increase in volatility across the board.

The U.S. stock market saw strong returns in the second quarter of 2007, despite inflation fears, which stoked rising yields on 10-year Treasury notes. The Federal Reserve ("Fed") held the federal funds rate steady for the eighth consecutive meeting in June 2007, as the yield on 10-year Treasury Notes reached a five-year high (5.30%) and the economy added more jobs than expected. U.S. equities demonstrated strength once again in the eventful third quarter of 2007, despite volatility that had not been experienced in quite some time. The problems in the subprime mortgage market spread to credit markets around the world, with spillover effects in the U.S. equity markets. Consequently, the Fed dropped the discount rate by 0.50% on August 17, 2007, then cut both the discount and federal funds rates by 0.50% on September 18, 2007 – which allowed the equity markets to shrug off some doldrums and post solid gains. The Fed followed up its September rate cuts with additional 0.25% federal funds and discount rate reductions at its October 31, 2007 meeting. Most domestic stocks advanced slightly during the month of October, led by the Nasdaq, which returned 5.83%. The Lehman Brothers® Aggregate Bond Index also gained slightly.

What factors contributed to the Fund's performance?
  The Fund underperformed the Russell 2000 Index ("the benchmark") in the fourth quarter of 2006, as micro-cap stocks, an underweight position in the Fund relative to the benchmark, were the best performers in December. With respect to sectors, the best performers relative to the benchmark were materials, financials and industrials. The weakest sectors on a relative basis were consumer discretionary, energy, consumer staples and information technology. The Fund outperformed the Russell 2000 Index in the first quarter of 2007, and we increased the portfolio's allocations to financials and utilities and decreased the Fund's weightings in materials and information technology.

As of the end of the second quarter of 2007, the Fund held its most significant overweight position versus the benchmark in the consumer discretionary sector, followed by materials. The Fund remained most underweight relative to the benchmark in financials and health care. At the end of June 2007, the Fund was positioned slightly towards value and larger cap with respect to company size. The Fund had a challenging third quarter of 2007, as our top-down market capitalization model boosted performance, whereas our bottom-up stock ranking models hampered performance. The portfolio's active overweight position in larger companies in the small-cap universe contributed positively to returns, as our models have been favoring larger versus smaller for quite some time. The Fund's trading in the quarter resulted in increased weightings in the technology sector and decreased weightings in the financials and utilities sectors.


74



MassMutual Premier Small Company Opportunities Fund – Portfolio Manager Report (Continued)

In October 2007, the Fund had a strong month relative to its peers, but underperformed its benchmark, as our top-down market capitalization model hampered performance, while our bottom-up stock ranking models contributed to our relative performance. The portfolio's active overweight position in larger companies in the small-cap universe detracted from performance, as larger stocks trailed smaller stocks in our small-cap universe. Our multi-factor, bottom-up stock selection models proved helpful relative to the Fund's peers, but detracted from the Fund's relative performance. From a sector allocation standpoint, the portfolio's underweight position in financials and overweight in technology stocks benefited returns. Finally, despite positive stock selection in the consumer discretionary and industrials sectors, poor stock selection within both the financials and technology sectors hampered the Fund's performance relative to the benchmark.

What is your outlook?
  The cycle of small-cap outperformance, which started in 1999 and lasted more than seven years, appears to have ended. Indeed, mega-, large- and mid-cap stocks have generally outperformed small- and micro-cap stocks since the end of January 2006, with mega-cap stocks beating all others. While volatility has increased and smaller stocks are still capable of sharp rallies, our models predict they do not have the potential for substantial or sustained outperformance over the next 12 months.

MassMutual Premier Global Fund – Portfolio Manager Report

What is the investment objective of the MassMutual Premier Global Fund – and who is the Fund's sub-adviser?
  This Fund seeks long-term capital appreciation by investing mainly in common stocks of companies in the U.S. and foreign countries. The Fund's sub-adviser is OppenheimerFunds, Inc. (OFI).

How did the Fund perform during the 12 months ended October 31, 2007?
  The Fund's Class S shares returned 19.43%, moderately trailing the 20.39% return of the Morgan Stanley Capital International ("MSCI") World IndexSM, an unmanaged index of issuers listed on the stock exchanges of 20 foreign countries and the U.S.

What was the investment background during the period?
  Domestic stocks forged higher during the final months of 2006, reaching some notable milestones along the way. The Dow Jones Industrial AverageSM ("the Dow") posted a series of new highs, and the S&P 500® Index broke the 1,400 level by year-end. The U.S. dollar weakened slightly during the period, which helped the MSCI World Index advance 8.37%. Domestic stock prices showed little change during the first quarter of 2007, despite a significant increase in volatility across the board. The U.S. dollar rallied early in the quarter, but gave up those gains later on, losing ground against most major foreign currencies. The dollar's depreciation supported the returns of foreign stocks and helped the MSCI World Index outperform its U.S. counterparts.

The U.S. stock market saw strong returns in the second quarter of 2007, despite inflation fears, which stoked rising yields on 10-year Treasury notes. The MSCI World Index trailed some U.S. equity indexes, in spite of continued foreign currency strength versus the U.S. dollar and positive results from Far East (ex-Japan) markets. Most U.S. equity markets advanced modestly in the eventful third quarter of 2007, despite extreme volatility. The problems in the subprime mortgage market spread to credit markets around the world, with spillover effects in the U.S. equity markets. Consequently, the Federal Reserve ("Fed") dropped the discount rate by 0.50% on August 17, 2007, then cut both the discount and federal funds rates by 0.50% on September 18, 2007 – which allowed the equity markets to shrug off some doldrums and post solid gains. Like its U.S. counterparts, the MSCI World Index saw a modest gain during the third quarter, advancing 2.36%. The Fed followed up its September rate cuts with additional 0.25% federal funds and discount rate reductions at its October 31, 2007 meeting. Most domestic stocks advanced slightly during the month of October, led by the Nasdaq Composite® Index ("Nasdaq"), which returned 5.83%. Foreign stocks also did well, as the MSCI World Index advanced 3.07%.

What factors contributed to the Fund's performance?
  From a country perspective, the United States was the largest contributor to the portfolio in the fourth quarter of 2006; although on a relative basis, it was also the costliest. When compared to the MSCI World Index ("the benchmark"), the Fund held an underweight allocation to the U.S. market by more than 7%. Relative to the benchmark, the Fund outperformed in Sweden and the UK. From a sector perspective, the largest contributors were information technology, financials and consumer discretionary. The UK presented the most notable positive performance for the portfolio in the first quarter of 2007. On the downside, while once again underweighting the U.S. relative to the benchmark proved beneficial, less-than-favorable stock selection overshadowed potential gains. Elsewhere, stock selection in Sweden and France sent those countries toward the bottom of the performance roster. The portfolio's lack of investment in Australia also proved detrimental. Results were mixed on the emerging market front. While stock selection in India (and India overall) detracted from benchmark comparisons, the portfolio's positions in Brazil and Mexico provided good returns. Asia (ex-Japan) detracted slightly. With respect to sector performance, stock selection within consumer discretionary and consumer staples helped drive the Fund's returns. Conversely, information technology was the largest detractor from relative performance in the first quarter.

During the second quarter of 2007, positive performance drivers included Vodafone Group (a global telecommunication services provider), Ericsson Telephone (the world's largest supplier of wireless infrastructure), Siemens (a global industrial conglomerate) and Hyundai Heavy Industries (the world's


78



MassMutual Premier Global Fund – Portfolio Manager Report (Continued)

largest shipyard). On the downside, detracting from second-quarter performance were Chugai Pharmaceuticals (a Japanese company), Sega Sammy Holdings (a maker of pachi-slot and pachinko machines, as well as a developer of home and arcade games), Credit Saison (a consumer finance company) and KDDI Corp. (the second-largest telecommunications provider in Japan). Turning to the third quarter of 2007, relative to the benchmark, information technology was the largest contributor to performance from a sector standpoint. On the other hand, the portfolio's underweight positions in the energy and materials sectors cost the Fund in terms of performance. From a geographic perspective, relative to the benchmark, the Fund's U.S. positions were the primary drivers of performance, as the Fund held an underweight position there. Finally, in October 2007, our top-performing stocks were Microsoft, Vodafone Group (a global telecommunication services provider) and HSBC (an international financial services conglomerate). On the downside, our worst performers were Ericcson Telephone, American International Group (the world's largest insurer) and Roche Holdings (a Swiss pharmaceuticals company).

What is your outlook?
  The Fund's investment strategy continues to be focused on identifying long-term structural growth stocks – companies with durable long-term earnings and cash flow growth characteristics, strong economic returns on invested capital, and healthy balance sheets. We continue to favor the valuations of large-cap growth companies, particularly technology companies with high barriers to entry and returns on capital.

MassMutual Premier International Equity Fund – Portfolio Manager Report

What is the investment objective of the MassMutual Premier International Equity Fund – and who is the Fund's sub-adviser?
  This Fund seeks to achieve a high total rate of return over the long term by investing in a diversified portfolio of foreign and domestic equity securities. The Fund's sub-adviser is OFI Institutional Asset Management, Inc. (OFI Institutional).

How did the Fund perform during the 12 months ended October 31, 2007?
  The Fund's Class S shares returned 34.17%, outpacing the 24.91% return of the Morgan Stanley Capital International Europe, Australasia, Far East ("MSCI® EAFE®") Index, a widely recognized, unmanaged index representative of foreign securities in the major non-U.S. markets of Europe, Australia and the Far East.

What was the investment background during the period?
  Domestic stocks forged higher during the final months of 2006, reaching some notable milestones along the way. The Dow Jones Industrial AverageSM ("the Dow") posted a series of new highs, and the S&P 500®Index broke the 1,400 level by year-end. The U.S. dollar weakened slightly during the period, which helped the MSCI EAFE Index turn in a double-digit advance. Domestic stock prices showed little change during the first quarter of 2007, despite a significant increase in volatility across the board. The U.S. dollar rallied early in the quarter, but gave up those gains later on, losing ground against most major foreign currencies. The dollar's depreciation supported the returns of foreign stocks and helped the MSCI EAFE Index outperform its U.S. counterparts.

The U.S. stock market saw strong returns in the second quarter of 2007, despite inflation fears, which stoked rising yields on 10-year Treasury notes. The MSCI EAFE Index trailed many U.S. equity indexes, in spite of continued foreign currency strength versus the U.S. dollar and positive results from Far East (ex-Japan) markets. Most U.S. equity markets advanced modestly in the eventful third quarter of 2007, despite extreme volatility.

Most domestic stocks advanced slightly during the month of October, led by the Nasdaq Composite® Index ("Nasdaq"), which returned 5.83%. Foreign stocks also did well, as the MSCI EAFE Index advanced 3.93%.

What factors contributed to the Fund's performance?
  The Fund performed well for the fourth quarter of 2006, which was a welcome finish to a strong year. The Fund's patient holding of several companies – most notably NicOx and NeuroSearch, both European biotechnology companies – resulted in substantial contributions to performance. Conversely, one of the Fund's worst contributors to performance came from Novogen, a company that has a promising oncological compound. In the first quarter of 2007, the Fund's top-performing stocks were Tandberg (a videoconferencing provider), Leighton Holdings (an Australian engineering and construction firm) and Hyundai Heavy Industries (a Korean shipbuilder). On the downside, the largest performance detractors were Ericsson (a worldwide telecommunications supplier), Yahoo! Japan and Neurosearch (a Danish biopharmaceutical company). From a country perspective, the UK was the best performer. The MSCI United Kingdom Index returned 1.9% over the same period in dollar terms. The worst-performing market was Japan.

In the second quarter of 2007, the portfolio's top-performing stocks were Hyundai Heavy Industries, ABB (a supplier of electrical infrastructure equipment) and Alstom (an engineering company specializing in power plants and rail projects). Hyundai Heavy Industries rose 86.8% on strong Asian demand for commercial ships. Consequently, we trimmed this position and took profits on the sale. On the downside, our worst performers were Sumitomo Realty & Development Co., Credit Saison (a consumer finance company) and NicOx. NicOx, which had been the top performer in the portfolio in

2006, fell 6.8% during the period. In the third quarter of 2007, our top contributors posted impressive gains. These strong performers included Companhia Vale do Rio Doce (CVRD; a major miner of iron ore), which gained 51%; Nintendo, which advanced 42%; and Neurosearch, which rose 45%. On the other hand, the largest detractors from Fund performance were William Demant (a hearing aid company), Aalberts Industries (a provider of industrial services and flow control products) and Mitsubishi UFJ. In October 2007, our top contributors were ICICI Bank, ABB and Leighton Holdings. Conversely, the largest detractors from fund performance were Ericsson, Anglo Irish Bank and Canon.

What is your outlook?
  Recent history is full of market turmoil: the stock market crash of 1987, the savings and loan crisis of the late 1980s, the Mexico crisis of 1994, the Russian default and Asia crisis of 1997/98, and the dot-com bubble ending in 2000. The aftermath of these shocks provided equity investors with considerable opportunities. The real worry, in our view, is a return to the stagnant equity markets we saw in the 1970s. The current turbulence in the markets, resulting from the subprime crisis, continues. Nevertheless, we will continue to seek those opportunities that may enable us to buy attractive companies at discount prices. Robust worldwide economic growth, particularly in the emerging world, is one factor that keeps us optimistic.

MassMutual Premier Focused International Fund – Portfolio Manager Report

What is the investment objective of the MassMutual Premier Focused International Fund – and who is the Fund's sub-adviser?
  This Fund seeks long-term capital appreciation. The Fund's sub-adviser is Baring International Investment Limited (Baring).

How did the Fund perform during the 12 months ended October 31, 2007?
  The Fund's Class S shares returned 40.18%, significantly outpacing the 24.91% return of the Morgan Stanley Capital International Europe, Australasia, Far East ("MSCI® EAFE®") Index, a widely recognized, unmanaged index representative of foreign securities in the major non-U.S. markets of Europe, Australia and the Far East.

What was the investment background during the period?
  All major international equity market returns were positive in the fourth quarter of 2006, as expectations of steady growth and stable interest rates around the world helped to drive the powerful year-end rally. The Asian (ex-Japan) markets were the best performers, as Japan continued its 2006 trend of being the worst-performing major market. At the sector level, telecommunications was the leader, whereas health care was the worst performer, as large pharmaceutical stocks continued to disappoint. Most major international equity market returns continued to advance in the first quarter of 2007, although the environment was marked by significant volatility mid-quarter in the form of a global stock sell-off and an important change in market leadership. Previously, the U.S. exchanges set the tone for global trading patterns and Asian investors stayed up all night to watch American markets. This was not the case in 2007. China/Asia caused the largest downturn in the U.S. exchanges since the 9/11 attacks – and then China/Asia led the subsequent global rally. The Pacific (ex-Japan) and Europe (ex-UK) were the best-performing regions in the first quarter of 2007, while Japan and the UK slightly underperformed. At the sector level, materials and industrials were the leaders; technology and energy were the worst performers.

International markets continued to perform admirably in the second quarter of 2007. From a geographic perspective, the best-performing regions continued to be the Pacific (ex-Japan) and Europe (ex-UK), with the UK and Japan once again trailing the pack. With respect to sectors, energy, materials and industrials were the second-quarter winners. Consumer discretionary, financials and health care, on the other hand, were the laggards. In the third quarter of 2007, the issues emanating from problems in the U.S. mortgage-backed debt market shook global markets in August. During this time frame, the best-performing areas of the international markets were emerging markets and the Pacific (ex-Japan). Once again, Japan and the UK trailed the rest. From a sector perspective, telecommunications and materials were the clear leaders – while the worst-performing sectors were consumer discretionary and financials. In October 2007, international markets displayed strength once again, as the MSCI EAFE Index advanced slightly. Despite numerous challenges surfacing in Europe, certain countries, such as Spain and Portugal, were quite strong, with double-digit gains. At the end of the line once again was Japan, which lost a bit of ground. Conversely, emerging markets remained strong, as the MSCI Emerging Markets Index advanced in the double digits for the month, with China, India, and Brazil as the standouts.

What factors contributed to the Fund's performance?  The majority of the Fund's strength in the fourth quarter of 2006 came from positive stock selection and asset allocation in Hong Kong and Singapore, its underweight position in the Japanese market and currency, and positive stock selection in Europe. On the other hand, small-cap stocks in Japan, Europe and Australia detracted from the Fund's performance. During the first quarter of 2007, positive stock selection in Europe (ex-UK) and in the financials sector helped to drive the Fund's performance. Conversely, the Fund's overweight position in energy and stock selection in materials hampered results.

In the second quarter of 2007, the Fund's overweight position in the strong-performing Pacific (ex-Japan) region helped to drive the portfolio's results. Additionally, the Fund's investments in the


86



MassMutual Premier Focused International Fund – Portfolio Manager Report (Continued)

energy and materials sectors helped boost its progress. Also contributing was positive stock selection in most regions. Alternatively, stock selection in Europe (ex-UK) hampered the Fund's performance, as Carnegie and Danske Bank reported disappointing results. In the third quarter of 2007, positive stock selection in the energy and financials sectors – coupled with overweight positions in the materials sector and the Pacific (ex-Japan) region accelerated the Fund's advance. On the other hand, stock selection in Japan detracted. In October 2007, favorable stock selection in the financials, industrials and energy sectors – along with an overweight position in Pacific ex-Japan – drove the Fund's performance. During the month, we sold the last of the portfolio's large-capitalization Hong Kong-listed Chinese stocks and started investing once again in Japan, where we had begun to reduce the Fund's position.

What is your outlook?
  We expect global equity markets to remain positive but volatile, driven by fears of slowing growth in the United States (where a recession is possible, in our view) and accelerating growth in Asia and the Middle East, both of which could experience increasing inflation. We believe that fears of a much sharper global slowdown could periodically impact international equity markets. Consequently, we will continue to leverage these periods of share price weakness to add to our most-compelling stock ideas.

1.  The Fund
  MassMutual Premier Funds (the "Trust") is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end, management investment company. The Trust is organized under the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts as a Massachusetts business trust pursuant to an Agreement and Declaration of Trust dated August 1, 1994, as amended. The Trust consists of the following series (each individually referred to as a "Fund" or collectively as the "Funds"): MassMutual Premier Money Market Fund ("Money Market Fund"), MassMutual Premier Short-Duration Bond Fund ("Short-Duration Bond Fund"), MassMutual Premier Inflation-Protected Bond Fund ("Inflation-Protected Bond Fund"), MassMutual Premier Core Bond Fund ("Core Bond Fund"), MassMutual Premier Diversified Bond Fund ("Diversified Bond Fund"), MassMutual Premier Strategic Income Fund ("Strategic Income Fund"), MassMutual Premier High Yield Fund ("High Yield Fund"), MassMutual Premier Balanced Fund ("Balanced Fund"), MassMutual Premier Value Fund ("Value Fund"), MassMutual Premier Enhanced Index Value Fund ("Enhanced Index Value Fund"), MassMutual Premier Enhanced Index Core Equity Fund ("Enhanced Index Core Equity Fund"), MassMutual Premier Main Street Fund ("Main Street Fund"), MassMutual Premier Capital Appreciation Fund ("Capital Appreciation Fund"), MassMutual Premier Core Growth Fund ("Core Growth Fund"), MassMutual Premier Enhanced Index Growth Fund ("Enhanced Index Growth Fund"), MassMutual Premier Discovery Value Fund ("Discovery Value Fund"), MassMutual Premier Small Capitalization Value Fund ("Small Capitalization Value Fund"), MassMutual Premier Main Street Small Cap Fund ("Main Street Small Cap Fund"), MassMutual Premier Small Company Opportunities Fund ("Small Company Opportunities Fund"), MassMutual Premier Global Fund ("Global Fund"), MassMutual Premier International Equity Fund ("International Equity Fund") and MassMutual Premier Focused International Fund ("Focused International Fund").

The Discovery Value Fund and Focused International Fund commenced operations on December 1, 2005.

The Main Street Small Cap Fund commenced operations on September 27, 2006.

Prior to the opening of business on September 17, 2007, the Enhanced Index Value Fund acquired all assets and liabilities of the MassMutual Premier Enhanced Index Value Fund II ("Enhanced Index Value Fund II). The acquisition was accomplished by a tax-free exchange of 510,982 Class A shares, 54,818 Class L shares, 186,139 Class Y shares, 16,377,117 Class S shares and 14,363 Class N shares of the Enhanced Index Value Fund II for 353,027 Class A shares, 38,011 Class L shares, 127,576 Class Y shares, 11,169,165 Class S shares and 9,845 Class N shares of the Enhanced Index Value Fund. Enhanced Index Value Fund II's net assets at that date of $152,349,540, including $3,799,417 of net unrealized appreciation, were combined with those of the Enhanced Index Value Fund. The aggregate net assets of the Enhanced Index Value Fund immediately before the acquisition were $420,379,056. The combined net assets of the Enhanced Index Value Fund immediately following the acquisition were $572,728,596.

Each Fund has five classes of shares: Class A, Class L, Class Y, Class S and Class N. Class N shares of the Money Market Fund are not currently available. The principal economic difference among the classes is the level of service and administration fees borne by the classes. The classes of shares are offered to different types of investors, as outlined in the Trust's Prospectus.

2.  Significant Accounting Policies
  The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed consistently by each Fund in the preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("generally accepted accounting principles"). The preparation of the financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Investment Valuation
  Equity securities are valued on the basis of valuations furnished by a pricing service, authorized by the Board of Trustees ("Trustees"), which provides the last reported sale price for securities listed on a national securities exchange or the official closing price on the NASDAQ National Market System, or in the case of over-the-counter securities not so listed, the last reported bid price. Debt securities (other than short-term obligations with a remaining maturity of sixty days or less) are valued on the basis of valuations furnished by a pricing service, authorized by the Trustees, which determines valuations taking into account appropriate factors such as institutional-size trading in similar groups of securities, yield, quality, coupon rate, maturity, type of issue, trading characteristics and other market data. For all Funds, excluding the Money Market Fund, short-term securities with a remaining maturity of sixty days or less are valued at either amortized cost or at original cost plus accrued interest, whichever approximates current market value. The Money Market Fund's portfolio securities are valued at amortized cost in accordance with Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act pursuant to which the Money Market Fund must adhere to certain conditions. It is the intention of the Money Market Fund to maintain a per-share net asset value of $1.00. All other securities and other assets, including futures, options, swaps and debt securities for which the prices supplied by a pricing agent are deemed by the Trustees not to be representative of market values, including restricted securities and securities for which no market quotation is available, are valued at fair value in accordance with procedures approved by the Trustees. Securities are typically valued on the basis of valuations furnished by a primary pricing service or, if no such valuation is available, from a secondary pricing service. However, valuation methods approved by the Trustees which are intended to reflect fair value may be used when pricing service information is not readily available or when a security's value is believed to have been materially affected by a significant event, such as a natural disaster, an economic event like a bankruptcy filing, or a substantial fluctuation in domestic or foreign markets, that has occurred after the close of the exchange or market on which the security is principally traded (for example, a foreign exchange or market). In such a case, a Fund's value for a security is likely to be different from the last quoted market price or pricing service information. In addition, a fair value pricing service is used to assist in the pricing of foreign securities held by the Trust's foreign funds. Due to the subjective and variable nature of fair value pricing, it is possible that the value determined for a particular asset may be materially different from the value realized upon such asset's sale.

Portfolio securities traded on more than one national securities exchange are valued at the last price on the business day as of which such value is being determined at the close of the exchange representing the principal market for such securities. All assets and liabilities expressed in foreign currencies are converted into U.S. dollars at the mean between the buying and selling rates of such currencies against U.S. dollars last quoted by any major bank. If such quotations are not available, the rate of exchange is determined in accordance with policies established by the Trustees.

Securities Lending
  Each Fund may lend its securities to qualified brokers; however, securities lending cannot exceed 33% of the total assets of the Funds taken at current value. The loans are collateralized at all times with cash or securities with a market value at least equal to 100% of the market value of the securities on loan. The market value of the loaned securities is determined at the close of business of the Fund and any additional collateral is delivered to the Fund the next business day. As with other extensions of credit, the Funds may bear the risk of delay in recovery or even loss of rights in the collateral should the borrower of the securities fail financially. The Funds receive compensation for lending their securities. At October 31, 2007, the Funds loaned securities having the following market values collateralized by cash, which was invested in short-term instruments in the following amounts:

    Securities on Loan   Collateral  
Short-Duration Bond Fund   $ 1,077,507     $ 1,131,434    
Core Bond Fund     87,423,090       91,670,885

Repurchase Agreements
  Each Fund may enter into repurchase agreements with certain banks and broker/dealers whereby a Fund acquires a security for cash and obtains a simultaneous commitment from the seller to repurchase the security at an agreed upon price and date. The Funds, through their custodian, take possession of the securities collateralizing the repurchase agreement. The collateral is marked to market daily to ensure that the market value of the underlying assets remains sufficient to protect the Funds in the event of default by the seller. Collateral for certain tri-party repurchase agreements is held at the counterparty's custodian in a segregated account for the benefit of the Funds and the counterparty. In connection with transactions in repurchase agreements, if the seller defaults and the value of the collateral declines or if the seller enters insolvency proceedings, realization of collateral by the Funds may be delayed or limited.

Accounting for Investments
  Investment transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Realized gains and losses on sales of investments and unrealized appreciation and depreciation of investments are computed by the specific identification cost method. Interest income, adjusted for amortization of discounts and premiums on debt securities, is earned from the settlement date and is recorded on the accrual basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date.

Federal Income Tax
  It is each Fund's intent to continue to comply with the provisions of subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), applicable to a regulated investment company. Under such provisions, the Funds will not be subject to federal income taxes on their ordinary income and net realized capital gains to the extent they are distributed or deemed to have been distributed to their shareholders. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required. Withholding taxes on foreign interest, dividends, and capital gains have been provided for in accordance with the applicable country's tax rules and rates.

Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders
  Dividends from net investment income of each Fund, other than the Money Market Fund, are declared and paid annually and at other times as may be required to satisfy tax or regulatory requirements. Dividends from net investment income are declared daily and paid monthly for the Money Market Fund. Distributions of any net realized capital gains of each Fund are declared and paid annually and at other times as may be required to satisfy tax or regulatory requirements. Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles. These differences are primarily due to investments in forward contracts, passive foreign investment companies, the deferral of wash sale losses, and paydowns on certain mortgage-backed securities. As a result, net investment income and net realized gain on investment transactions for a reporting period may differ significantly from distributions during such period.

Accordingly, the Funds may periodically make reclassifications among certain of their capital accounts without affecting the net asset value of the Funds.

During the year ended December 31, 2007, the following amounts were reclassified due to differences between book and tax accounting.

Foreign Currency Translation
  The books and records of the Funds are maintained in U.S. dollars. The market values of foreign currencies, foreign securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the mean of the buying and selling rates of such currencies against the U.S. dollar at the end of each business day. Purchases and sales of foreign securities and income and expense items are translated at the rates of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions. The Funds do not isolate that portion of the results of operations arising from changes in the exchange rates from that portion arising from changes in the market prices of securities. Net realized foreign currency gains and losses resulting from changes in exchange rates include foreign currency gains and losses between trade date and settlement date on investment securities transactions, foreign currency transactions and the difference between the amounts of dividends recorded on the books of the Funds and the amount actually received.

Forward Foreign Currency
Contracts

  Each Fund may enter into forward foreign currency contracts in order to hedge the effect of currency movements of foreign denominated securities or obligations. A forward foreign currency contract is an agreement between two parties to buy and sell a currency at a set price on a future date. The market value of a forward foreign currency contract fluctuates with changes in foreign currency exchange and interest rates. Forward foreign currency contracts are marked to market daily and the change in their value is recorded by the Funds as an unrealized gain or loss. When a forward foreign currency contract is extinguished, through delivery or offset by entering into another forward foreign currency contract, the Funds record a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value of the contract at the time it was extinguished or offset.

Forward foreign currency contracts involve a risk of loss from the potential inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts and from unanticipated movements in foreign currency values and interest rates.

The notional or contractual amounts of these instruments represent the investments the Funds have in particular classes of financial instruments and do not necessarily represent the amounts potentially subject to risk. The measurement of the risk associated with these instruments is meaningful only when all related and offsetting transactions and counterparty risk are considered.

Delayed Delivery Transactions, When Issued Securities, and Forward Commitments
  Each Fund may purchase or sell securities on a "when issued" or delayed delivery or on a forward commitment basis. The Funds use forward commitments to manage interest rate exposure or as a temporary substitute for purchasing or selling particular debt securities. Payment and delivery may take place after the customary settlement period for that security. The price of the underlying securities and the date when the securities will be delivered and paid for are fixed at the time the transaction is negotiated. These securities are valued on the basis of valuations furnished by a pricing service, authorized by the Trustees, which determines valuations taking into account appropriate factors such as institutional-size trading in similar groups of securities, yield, quality, coupon rate, maturity, type of issue, trading characteristics and other market data. Securities for which no market quotation is available, are valued at fair value in accordance with procedures approved by the Trustees. The Funds record on a daily basis the unrealized appreciation (depreciation) based upon changes in the value of these securities. When a forward commitment contract is closed, the Funds record a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value of the contract at the time it was closed. Losses may arise due to changes in the value of the underlying securities or if the counterparty does not perform under the contract, or if the issuer does not issue the securities due to political, economic, or other factors. Funds monitor exposure to ensure counterparties are creditworthy and concentration of exposure is minimized.

Financial Futures Contracts
  The Funds may purchase or sell financial futures contracts and options on such futures contracts for the purpose of hedging the market risk on existing securities or as a substitute for the purchase of securities. Futures contracts are contracts for delayed delivery of securities at a specific future date and at a specific price or yield. Upon entering into a contract, the Funds deposit and maintain as collateral such initial margin as required by the exchange on which the transaction is effected. Pursuant to the contract, the Fund agrees to receive from or pay to the broker an amount of cash equal to the daily fluctuation in value of the contract. Such receipts or payments are known as variation margin and are recorded by the Funds as unrealized gains or losses. When the contract is closed, each Fund records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed. Futures contracts are valued at the settlement price established each day by the board of trade or exchange on which they are traded.

Options
  The Funds may purchase put and call options. By purchasing a put option, a Fund obtains the right (but not the obligation) to sell the instrument underlying the option at a fixed strike price. In return for this right, a Fund pays the current market price for the option (known as the option premium). Options have various types of underlying instruments, including specific securities, indexes of securities, indexes of security prices, indexes of interest rates, futures contracts and swap agreements. A Fund may terminate its position in a put option it has purchased by allowing it to expire or by exercising the option. A Fund may also close out a put option position by entering into an offsetting transaction, if a liquid market exists. If the option is allowed to expire, a Fund will lose the entire premium it paid. Premiums paid for purchasing options which expire are treated as realized losses. If a Fund exercises a put option on a


307



Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)

security, it will sell the instrument underlying the option at the strike price. If a Fund exercises an option on an index, settlement is in cash and does not involve the actual sale of securities.

The buyer of a typical put option can expect to realize a gain if the price of the underlying instrument falls substantially. However, if the price of the instrument underlying the option does not fall enough to offset the cost of purchasing the option, a put buyer can expect to suffer a loss (limited to the amount of the premium paid, plus related transaction costs).

The features of call options are essentially the same as those of put options, except that the purchaser of a call option obtains the right to purchase, rather than sell, the instrument underlying the option at the option's strike price. A call buyer typically attempts to participate in potential price increases of the instrument underlying the option with risk limited to the cost of the option if security prices fall. At the same time, the buyer can expect to suffer a loss if security prices do not rise sufficiently to offset the cost of the option. See the Portfolio of Investments of the Short-Duration Bond Fund, Core Bond Fund, Diversified Bond Fund, Strategic Income Fund and Balanced Fund for open purchased option contracts as of October 31, 2007.

The Funds may also "write" put and call options. When a Fund writes a put option, it takes the opposite side of the transaction from the option's purchaser. In return for receipt of the premium, a Fund assumes the obligation to pay the strike price for the instrument underlying the option if the other party to the option chooses to exercise it. A Fund may seek to terminate its position in a put option it writes before exercise by purchasing an offsetting option in the market at its current price. If the market is not liquid for a put option a Fund has written, however, a Fund must continue to be prepared to pay the strike price while the option is outstanding, regardless of price changes, and must continue to post margin as discussed below.

If the price of the underlying instrument rises, a put writer would generally expect to profit, although its gain would be limited to the amount of the premium it received. If security prices remain the same over time, it is likely that the writer will also profit, because it should be able to close out the option at a lower price. If security prices fall, the put writer would expect to suffer a loss. This loss should be less than the loss from purchasing and holding the underlying instrument directly, however, because the premium received for writing the option should offset a portion of the decline.

Writing a call option obligates a Fund to sell or deliver the option's underlying instrument in return for the strike price upon exercise of the option. The characteristics of writing call options are similar to those of writing put options, except that writing calls generally is a profitable strategy if prices remain the same or fall. Through receipt of the option premium a call writer offsets part of the effect of a price increase. At the same time, because a call writer must be prepared to deliver the underlying instrument in return for the strike price, even if its current value is greater, a call writer gives up some ability to participate in security price increases.

The writer of an exchange traded put or call option on a security, an index of securities or a futures contract is required to deposit cash or securities or a letter of credit as margin and to make mark to market payments of variation margin as the position becomes unprofitable. When a Fund writes a call or put option, an amount equal to the premium received is recorded as a liability. Premiums received from writing options which expire are treated as realized gains. Premiums received from writing options which are exercised or closed are added to the proceeds or offset against the amount paid on the underlying investment to determine the realized gain or loss.

Exchange traded options are valued at the last sale price, or if no sales are reported, the last bid price for purchased options and the last ask price for written options. Options traded over-the-counter are valued using prices supplied by a primary pricing source chosen by the Trust.

Swaps
  The Funds may engage in swap transactions, including, but not limited to, interest rate, currency, credit default, indices, basket, specific security and commodity swaps, interest rate caps, floors and collars (collectively defined as "swap transactions").

Each Fund may enter into swap transactions for any legal purpose consistent with its investment objective and policies, such as for the purpose of attempting to obtain or preserve a particular return or spread at a lower cost than obtaining that return or spread through purchases and/or sales of instruments

in cash markets, to protect against currency fluctuation, as a duration management technique, to protect against any increase in the price of securities a Fund anticipates purchasing at a later date, or to gain exposure to certain markets in the most economical way possible.

Swap agreements are two-party contracts entered into primarily by institutional counterparties for periods ranging from a few weeks to several years. In a standard swap transaction, two parties agree to exchange the returns (or differentials in rates of return) that would be earned or realized on specified notional investments or instruments. The gross returns to be exchanged or "swapped" between the parties are calculated by reference to a "notional amount," i.e., the return on or increase in value of a particular dollar amount invested at a particular interest rate, in a particular foreign currency or commodity, or in a "basket" of securities representing a particular index. The purchaser of an interest rate cap or floor, upon payment of a fee, has the right to receive payments (and the seller of the cap is obligated to make payments) to the extent a specified interest rate exceeds (in the case of a cap) or is less than (in the case of a floor) a specified level over a specified period of time or at specified dates. The purchaser of an interest rate collar, upon payment of a fee, has the right to receive payments (and the seller of the collar is obligated to make payments) to the extent that a specified interest rate falls outside an agreed upon range over a specified period of time or at specified dates.

The amount of a Fund's potential gain or loss on any swap transaction is not subject to any fixed limit. Nor is there any fixed limit on a Fund's potential loss if it sells a cap or collar. If the Fund buys a cap, floor or collar, however, the Fund's potential loss is limited to the amount of the fee that it has paid. When measured against the initial amount of cash required to initiate the transaction, which is typically zero in the case of most conventional swap transactions, swaps, caps, floors and collars tend to be more volatile than many other types of instruments.

The Funds will maintain cash or liquid assets in an amount sufficient at all times to cover its current obligations under its swap transactions, caps, floors and collars. If a Fund enters into a swap agreement on a net basis, it will segregate assets with a daily value at least equal to the excess, if any, of a Fund's accrued obligations under the swap agreement over the accrued amount a Fund is entitled to receive under the agreement. If a Fund enters into a swap agreement on other than a net basis, or sells a cap, floor or collar, it will segregate assets with a daily value at least equal to the full amount of a Fund's accrued obligation under the agreement.

During the term of a swap, cap, floor or collar, changes in the value of the instrument are recognized as unrealized gains or losses by marking to market to reflect the market value of the instrument. When the instrument is terminated, a Fund will record a realized gain or loss equal to the difference, if any, between the proceeds from (or cost of) the closing transaction and a Fund's basis in the contract.

During the term of a swap, cap, floor or collar, the periodic net payments can be made for a set period of time or may be triggered by a predetermined credit event. The net periodic payments may be based on a fixed or variable interest rate; the change in market value of a specific security, basket of securities or index; or the return generated by a security. These periodic payments received or made by the Trust are recorded in the accompanying Statement of Operations as realized gains and losses, respectively.

The Funds may enter into credit default swaps to buy or sell credit protection on an individual issuer or a basket of issuers of bonds. When a Fund is the buyer of a credit default swap contract, the Fund is entitled to receive the par or other agreed-upon value, of a referenced debt obligation from the counterparty to the contract in the event of a default by a third party, such as a U.S. or foreign corporate issuer, on the debt obligation. In return, the Fund would pay the counterparty a periodic stream of payments over the term of the contract provided that no event of default has occurred. If no default occurs, the Fund would have spent the stream of payments and received no benefit from the contract. When a Fund is the seller of a credit default swap contract, it receives the stream of payments, but is obligated to pay upon default of the referenced debt obligation. As the seller, the Fund would effectively add leverage to its portfolio because, in addition to its total net assets, the Fund would be subject to investment exposure on the notional amount of the swap. During the period that the credit default swap contract is open, the contract is marked to market in accordance with the terms of the contract based on the current interest rate spreads and credit risk of the referred obligation of the underlying issuer and

interest accrual through valuation date. Changes in the value of credit default swap contracts are recorded as unrealized gains or losses and periodic cash settlements are recorded as realized gains or losses. The Fund will segregate assets in the form of cash and cash equivalents in an amount equal to the aggregate market value of the credit default swaps of which it is the seller, marked to market on a daily basis. These transactions involve certain risks, including the risk that the seller may be unable to fulfill the transaction.

The values of these notes will fall or rise in response to the changes in the values of the underlying security or index. They are subject to both credit and interest rate risks. Therefore the Fund could receive more or less than it originally invested when a note matures, or it might receive less interest than the stated coupon payment if the underlying investment or index does not perform as anticipated. The prices of these notes may be very volatile and they may have a limited trading market, making it difficult for the Fund to value them or to sell its investment quickly at an acceptable price.

Dollar Roll Transactions
  The Funds may engage in dollar roll transactions. A dollar roll transaction involves a sale by a Fund of a GNMA certificate or other mortgage backed security to a financial institution, such as a bank or broker-dealer, concurrent with an agreement by the Fund to repurchase a similar security from the institution at a later date at an agreed upon price. The securities that are repurchased will bear the same interest rate as those sold, but generally will be collateralized by different pools of mortgages with different prepayment histories than those sold. During the period between the sale and repurchase, a Fund will not be entitled to receive the interest and principal payments on the securities sold. Proceeds of the sale will be invested in additional instruments for the Fund. A Fund is compensated for agreeing to repurchase the security by the difference between the current sales price and the price for the future purchase (often referred to as the "drop") as well as by the interest earned on the cash proceeds of the initial sale. Dollar rolls may be renewed over a period of several months with a different repurchaser or repurchase price and a cash settlement made at each renewal without physical delivery of securities. Moreover, a Fund may enter into a dollar roll transaction involving a security not then in the Fund's portfolio.

A Fund will segregate cash or other liquid securities in an amount sufficient to meet its obligations under dollar roll transactions or otherwise cover its obligations as permitted by applicable law. Dollar roll transactions involve potential risks of loss which are different from those related to the securities underlying the transaction. For example, if the counterparty were to become insolvent, the Fund's right to purchase from the counterparty may be restricted. Additionally, the market value of the securities sold by the Fund may decline below the repurchase price of those securities to be purchased.

For the year ended October 31, 2007, the Strategic Income Fund earned $34,401 in interest income from dollar roll transactions.

Inflation-Indexed Bonds
  The Funds may invest in inflation-indexed bonds, which are fixed income securities whose principal value is periodically adjusted according to the rate of inflation. Two structures are common. The U.S. Treasury and some other issuers use a structure that accrues inflation into the principal value of the bond. Most other issuers pay out the Consumer Price Index accruals as part of a periodic coupon.

Inflation-indexed securities issued by the U.S. Treasury have maturities of five, ten, twenty or thirty years, although it is possible that securities with other maturities will be issued in the future. The U.S. Treasury securities pay interest on a semi-annual basis, equal to a fixed percentage of the inflation-adjusted principal amount.

If the periodic adjustment rate measuring inflation falls, the principal value of inflation-indexed bonds will be adjusted downward, and consequently the interest payable on these securities (calculated with respect to a smaller principal amount) will be reduced. Repayment of the original bond principal upon maturity (as adjusted for inflation) is guaranteed in the case of U.S. Treasury inflation-indexed bonds, even during a period of deflation. However, the current market value of the bonds is not guaranteed, and will fluctuate. The Funds may also invest in other inflation related bonds which may or may not provide a similar guarantee. If a guarantee of principal is not provided, the adjusted principal value of the bond repaid at maturity may be less than the original principal.

The value of inflation-indexed bonds is expected to change in response to changes in real interest rates. Real interest rates in turn are tied to the relationship between nominal interest rates and the rate of inflation. Therefore, if inflation were to rise at a faster rate than nominal interest rates, real interest rates might decline, leading to an increase in value of inflation-indexed bonds. In contrast, if nominal interest rates increased at a faster rate than inflation, real interest rates might rise, leading to a decrease in value of inflation-indexed bonds.

While the values of these securities are expected to be protected from long-term inflationary trends, short-term increases in inflation may lead to a decline in value. If interest rates rise due to reasons other than inflation (for example, due to changes in currency exchange rates), investors in these securities may not be protected to the extent that the increase is not reflected in the bond's inflation measure.

Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)

The periodic adjustment of U.S. Treasury inflation-indexed bonds is tied to the Consumer Price Index for Urban Consumers ("CPI-U"), which is calculated monthly by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. The CPI-U is a measurement of changes in the cost of living, made up of components such as housing, food, transportation and energy. Inflation-indexed bonds issued by a foreign government are generally adjusted to reflect a comparable inflation index, calculated by that government. There can be no assurance that the CPI-U or any foreign inflation index will accurately measure the real rate of inflation in the prices of goods and services. Moreover, there can be no assurance that the rate of inflation in a foreign country will be correlated to the rate of inflation in the United States.

Allocation of Operating Activity
  In maintaining the records for the Funds, the income and expense accounts are allocated to each class of shares. Investment income, unrealized and realized gains or losses are prorated among the classes of shares based on the relative net assets of each. Expenses are allocated to each class of shares depending on the nature of the expenditures. Administration and service fees, which are directly attributable to a class of shares, are charged to that class' operations. Expenses of the Fund not directly attributable to the operations of any class of shares or Fund are prorated among the Funds and classes to which the expense relates based on the relative net assets of each.

Foreign Securities
  The Global Fund invests a significant amount of its assets and each of the International Equity Fund and Focused International Fund invests substantially all of its assets in foreign securities. The other Funds may also invest in foreign securities, subject to certain percentage restrictions. Investing in securities of foreign companies and foreign governments involves special risks and considerations not typically associated with investing in securities of U.S. companies and the U.S. Government. These risks include revaluation of currencies and future adverse political and economic developments. Moreover, securities of many foreign companies and foreign governments and their markets may be less liquid and their prices more volatile than those of securities of comparable U.S. companies and the U.S. Government.

  On July 13, 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) released FASB Interpretation No. 48 "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes" (FIN 48). FIN 48 provides guidance for how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, presented and disclosed in the financial statements. FIN 48 requires the evaluation of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the fund's tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are "more-likely-than not" of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Adoption of FIN 48 is required for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006 and is to be applied to all open tax years as of the effective date. At this time, management is evaluating the implications of FIN 48 and its impact in the financial statements has not yet been determined.

  The Funds recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the Statements of Operations. During the year ended October 31, 2007, the Funds did not incur any interest or penalties. The Funds are subject to examination by U.S. federal, state and foreign tax authorities for returns filed after 2004, 2005 and 2006, respectively.

7.  New Accounting Pronouncements
  In September 2006, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (SFAS 157), was issued and is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. SFAS 157 determines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Management is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of SFAS 157 will have on the Funds' financial statement disclosures.

8.  Proxy Voting (Unaudited)
  A description of the policies and procedures that each Fund's investment adviser and sub-advisers use to vote proxies relating to the Fund's portfolio securities is available, without charge, upon request, by calling 1-888-309-3539, and on the Securities and Exchange Commission's website at http://www.sec.gov.

  Information regarding how the Funds voted proxies relating to portfolio securities during the most recent 12-month period ended June 30 is available, without charge, upon request, on the MassMutual website at http://www.massmutual.com/retire and on the Securities and Exchange Commission's website at http://www.sec.gov.

9.  Quarterly Reporting (Unaudited)
  The Funds file their complete schedule of portfolio holdings with the SEC for the first and third quarters of each fiscal year on Form N-Q. The Funds' Forms N-Q are available on the SEC website at http://www.sec.gov. The Funds' Forms N-Q may be reviewed and copied at the SEC's Public Reference Room in Washington D.C. Information on the operation of the SEC's Public Reference Room may be obtained by calling 1-800-SEC-0330.

10.  Legal Proceedings (Unaudited)
  On November 6, 2003, the MassMutual Prime Fund (now known as the MassMutual Premier Money Market Fund), the MassMutual Core Bond Fund (now known as the MassMutual Premier Core Bond Fund) and the MassMutual Balanced Fund (now known as the MassMutual Premier Balanced Fund) were each named as a defendant in an adversary proceeding brought by Enron Corp. ("Enron"), as debtor and debtor-in-possession, in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York, in connection with Enron's Chapter 11 bankruptcy proceeding (In re Enron Corp.). On October 18, 2005, the MassMutual Short-Term Bond Fund (now known as the MassMutual Premier Short-Duration Bond Fund) and the MassMutual Diversified Bond Fund (now known as the MassMutual Premier Diversified Bond Fund) were named as additional defendants in In re Enron Corp. Enron alleges that the dozens of parties named as defendants, including these Funds and certain affiliates of these Funds and MassMutual, were initial transferees of early redemptions or prepayments of Enron commercial paper made shortly before Enron's bankruptcy in December 2001, or were parties for whose benefit such redemptions or prepayments were made, or were immediate or mediate transferees of such redemptions or prepayments. It is alleged that these Funds and the other defendants urged Enron to make these prepayments or redemptions prior to the stated maturity of the commercial paper and contrary to the terms of the commercial paper's original issuing documents, that the transactions depleted Enron's estate, and that they had the effect of unfairly preferring the holders of commercial paper at the expense of other general unsecured creditors. Enron seeks to avoid each of these transactions and recover these payments, plus interest and court costs, so that all similarly situated creditors of Enron can equally and ratably share the monies.

  While these Funds believe that they have valid defenses to all claims raised by Enron, these Funds cannot predict the outcome of this proceeding. The amounts sought to be recovered from the Money Market Fund, the Balanced Fund, the Core Bond Fund, the Short-Duration Bond Fund and the Diversified Bond Fund, plus interest and Enron's court costs, are approximately $9.7 million, $5.5 million, $3.2 million, $1.3 million and $890 thousand respectively. If the proceeding were to be decided in a manner adverse to these Funds, or if these Funds enter into a settlement agreement with Enron, the payment of such judgment or settlement could have a material adverse effect on each Fund's net asset value. To remove any doubt that the Money Market Fund will be able to maintain a net asset value of $1.00 per share due to this proceeding, the Money Market Fund and MassMutual have entered into an indemnification agreement whereby MassMutual has agreed to indemnify the Money Market Fund, to the extent necessary, in order for the Money Market Fund to maintain a net asset value of $1.00

per share, in the event that any liability is incurred or settlement payment is made by the Money Market Fund in connection with this proceeding.

11.  Trustees' Approval of Investment Advisory Contracts (Unaudited)  At Board meetings held on April 26, 2007 and May 31, 2007, the Board, including the Independent Trustees, approved the existing Advisory Agreements for the Strategic Income Fund, Main Street Fund and International Equity Fund and the existing Advisory Agreements and Sub-Advisory Agreements (collectively, the "Contracts") for each of the Money Market Fund, Short-Duration Bond Fund, Inflation-Protected Bond Fund, Core Bond Fund, Diversified Bond Fund, High Yield Fund, Balanced Fund, Value Fund, Enhanced Index Value Fund, Enhanced Index Core Equity Fund, Capital Appreciation Fund, Core Growth Fund, Enhanced Index Growth Fund, Discovery Value Fund, Small Capitalization Value Fund, Small Company Opportunities Fund, Global Fund and Focused International Fund (each a "Fund" and collectively, the "Funds"). In preparation for the meetings, the Trustees requested, and the Adviser and Sub-Advisers provided in advance of the meetings, certain materials relevant to the consideration of the Contracts.

At the meeting held on April 26, 2007, the Trustees' independent counsel reviewed with all of the Independent Trustees the requirement under the 1940 Act that the Trustees, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, consider annually the continuation of the Funds' Contracts. In advance of the meeting, the Independent Trustees received a memorandum, prepared by independent counsel, addressing their duties and responsibilities in approving the Contracts, including identification of types of information relevant to such consideration. The Trustees' independent counsel reviewed the memorandum and the role of the Independent Trustees in renewing the Contracts, including, among other things, (i) the nature of the Trustees' responsibilities and factors the Trustees are entitled or required to consider in this regard, (ii) the enhanced disclosure requirements relating to the Board's approval of the Contracts, and (iii) recent mutual fund fee litigation.

In addition, the Independent Trustees received in advance of the meeting (i) a memorandum from the Adviser discussing the nature and quality of the services it provides as investment manager to the Funds, (ii) a profitability analysis prepared by the Adviser, and (iii) a fee study report (the "Third-Party Report") with respect to each Fund prepared by an independent third-party vendor (the "Third-Party"). The Third-Party Report provided detailed comparative fee, expense and performance information for each Fund to assist the Trustees in their evaluation of the Contracts.

Representatives of the Adviser ("Management") gave a presentation which provided an overview of the nature and quality of services provided by the Adviser to the Funds. This presentation included a discussion of the Adviser's operations and capabilities. A representative of the Third-Party was present for a portion of the meeting and made a presentation to the Independent Trustees with respect to the Third-Party Report.

The Independent Trustees then reviewed, and considered separately for each Fund, the detailed information presented in the Third-Party Report regarding (i) Fund expenses including, among other things, both the Fund's advisory fee and total net expense ratios versus its expense group and expense universe; and (ii) the Fund's relative performance (over various time periods versus its performance group, performance universe and benchmark index, taking into account the Fund's strategy).

Throughout the discussion, Management responded to Trustee questions and provided additional information concerning the Core Bond Fund, Inflation-Protected Bond Fund, International Equity Fund, Balanced Fund and Diversified Bond Fund, whose total net expenses ranked in the 4th or 5th quintiles of their respective expense groups, and the Core Bond Fund, Small Company Opportunities Fund, Core Growth Fund, Value Fund and Small Capitalization Value Fund, whose three-year total returns placed in the 4th or 5th quintiles of their respective performance universes.


366



Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)

Management noted that the primary cause of the Core Bond Fund's 5th quintile expense ranking was advisory fee expense. In addition, it was noted that the Core Bond Fund underperformed its performance group average in all time periods. Management stated that despite its ranking among its peers, it had outperformed its benchmark in all time periods while remaining consistent with its conservative investment mandate and that its expenses were only four basis points higher than the median when compared against the larger expense universe. Additionally, Management noted that the Fund's Class S shares have a four-star Morningstar rating.

Management noted that the Inflation-Protected Bond Fund's advisory fee expense was the primary reason for its 5th quintile expense ranking. Management noted that the Fund's profitability to MassMutual, as compared to other Funds it managed, was low. In addition, Management noted that the Fund's Sub-Adviser, Babson Capital Management, LLC ("Babson Capital") had executed on its mandate to outperform its benchmark gross of fees on a one-, two- and three-year basis.

Management noted, in respect of the International Equity Fund and Balanced Fund, that administrator expenses were the primary reason for these Funds' 4th quintile expense rankings. With respect to the International Equity Fund, Management stated that the Fund's total net expenses were in line with the median in its expense universe and that the Fund ranked in the 1st quintile for performance in both the one- and four-year time periods. With respect to the Balanced Fund, Management noted that the Fund has a relatively low advisory fee and that its ranking improves to the 2nd quintile when compared to the Fund's expense universe (as opposed to its expense group).

Management noted that the primary cause of the Diversified Bond Fund's 4th quintile ranking was advisory fee expense. Management noted that the Fund has consistently ranked in the first three quintiles for performance and has outperformed the performance universe median for all periods except the two-year period.

Management noted that each of the Small Company Opportunities Fund, Core Growth Fund and Value Fund underperformed its respective performance group average in all time periods. Management stated that the Small Company Opportunities Fund had ranked in the 1st quintile for total expenses in its expense group and that, over the past year, had undergone a change in its portfolio management team and strategy to help improve its performance. Management also noted that the Core Growth Fund and Value Fund had each ranked in the 1st quintile for total expenses in its respective expense group and that each had undergone a sub-adviser change over the past year which had already resulted in improved performance for each Fund under its new portfolio management team.

Management noted that the Small Capitalization Value Fund ranked in the 5th quintile of performance for the three-year time period. Management explained that the Fund had undergone a change in its portfolio management team over the past year and noted that, for the one-year period, the Fund ranked in the 2nd quintile of its performance group and in the 3rd quintile of its performance universe. It was also noted that the Fund's expenses, including advisory and 12b-1 fees, are not high and have not been high historically.

In conjunction with their review of the Third-Party Report, the Independent Trustees also reviewed and considered information included in the materials concerning economies of scale and profitability of the Adviser's relationship with the various Funds, including: (i) a description of the revenue (including management fees and administrative service fees, as applicable) and expense allocation methodology employed by the Adviser; and (ii) profitability information for the Funds and each Fund individually, which included a sensitivity analysis for those Funds without breakpoints of the expected level of profitability assuming increased Fund assets of $100 million and $250 million. The discussions and consideration included the intangible benefits derived by the Adviser and its affiliates resulting from their relationships with the Funds and the so-called "fallout benefits" to the Adviser, such as any reputational value derived from serving as investment adviser to the Funds. It was noted that the Funds


367



Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)

do not have breakpoints as the advisory fee is established at the time of a Premier Fund's introduction based upon a mature fund projection.

The Independent Trustees next considered the materials provided by the Adviser in advance of the Meeting and information discussed with Management at the Meeting relating to the Adviser and the nature, scope and quality of services the Adviser provides to the Funds. The Independent Trustees noted the fact that the Adviser delegates substantially all responsibility for furnishing a continuous investment program for the Funds, and making investment decisions with respect to a Fund's assets, to the relevant Sub-Advisers. The Independent Trustees reviewed the Adviser's ability to provide investment oversight, administrative and shareholder services to the Funds. The Independent Trustees also considered the experience and qualifications of the personnel of the Adviser that perform, or oversee the performance of, the services provided to the Funds and the needs of the Funds for administrative and shareholder services.

The Independent Trustees also considered, and discussed with Management, among other things: (i) the ability of the Adviser to monitor the operations and performance of each Fund's Sub-Adviser; (ii) the financial condition, stability and business strategy of the Adviser; (iii) the ability of the Adviser with respect to regulatory compliance and the ability to monitor compliance with the investment policies of the Funds; (iv) the profitability of the Adviser; (v) possible economies of scale; and (vi) any conditions affecting the Adviser's future provision of high quality services to the Funds.

The Independent Trustees discussed with Management and considered a wide range of information about, among other things: (i) each Sub-Adviser and its personnel with responsibilities for providing services to the respective Fund; (ii) the terms of the Sub-Advisory Agreements; (iii) the scope and quality of services provided to each Fund under the Sub-Advisory Agreements; and (iv) the fees payable to each Sub-Adviser by the Adviser. The Independent Trustees also noted that each Sub-Adviser may receive research services from brokers in connection with portfolio securities transactions for the Funds and that research services furnished by brokers through which the Funds effect securities transactions may be used by the Sub-Adviser in advising other accounts that it advises; and that, conversely, research services furnished to a Sub-Adviser in connection with other accounts each Sub-Adviser advises may be used by the Sub-Adviser in advising the Funds.

Prior to the votes being taken to approve the Contracts, the Independent met separately in executive session to discuss the appropriateness of such contracts. In their deliberation with respect to these matters, the Independent Trustees were advised by their independent legal counsel. The Independent Trustees weighed the foregoing matters in light of the advice given to them by their independent legal counsel as to the law applicable to the review of investment advisory contracts. In arriving at a decision, the Independent Trustees did not identify any single matter as all-important or controlling. The foregoing summary does not detail all of the matters considered.

After their deliberation, during which independent counsel was present, the Independent Trustees indicated that they were prepared to recommend approval of the Contracts for each of the Funds, with the exception of the Inflation-Protected Bond Fund, for which they requested additional information and analysis concerning the Fund's expenses and performance. The Independent Trustees requested that this information be provided at the May 31, 2007 meeting.

As to the Money Market Fund, Short-Duration Bond Fund, Core Bond Fund, Diversified Bond Fund, Strategic Income Fund, High Yield Fund, Balanced Fund, Value Fund, Enhanced Index Value Fund, Enhanced Index Core Equity Fund, Main Street Fund, Capital Appreciation Fund, Core Growth Fund, Enhanced Index Growth Fund, Discovery Value Fund, Small Capitalization Value Fund, Small Company Opportunities Fund, Global Fund, International Equity Fund and Focused International Fund the Independent Trustees concluded that: (i) overall, they were satisfied with the nature, extent and quality of services provided, and expected to be provided in the future under the Contracts, including the level of the Adviser's oversight of the Funds and the sub-advisory process; (ii) the Adviser's level


368



Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)

of profitability from its relationship to the various Funds was not excessive and that the advisory fees payable under the Contracts, and the Funds' total expenses, were fair and reasonable; (iii) the investment processes, research capabilities and philosophies of each Sub-Adviser are well suited to each Fund, given their investment objective and policies; (iv) either the relative or absolute performance of a Fund (in each case, taking into account the applicable investment strategy and risk profile of the Fund), or the steps the Adviser has proposed to be taken to remedy any underperformance of the Fund, are sufficient to warrant continuation of the Contract for each of the Funds; and (v) the terms of the Contracts are fair and reasonable with respect to each Fund and are in the best interests of each Fund's shareholders. In arriving at a decision to recommend approval of these Contracts to the Board, the Independent Trustees did not identify any single matter as all-important or controlling. The foregoing summary does not detail all of the matters considered.

At their meeting on May 31, 2007, the Independent Trustees discussed the Inflation-Protected Bond Fund in more detail. With respect to the Fund's performance, Management noted that (i) over the one- and two-year periods the Fund ranked in the 5th quintile of its performance group and (ii) over the one- and two-year periods, and over the three-year period, the Fund ranked in the 4th and the 3rd quintiles of its performance universe, respectively. Management, referring to a spreadsheet that was distributed during the meeting, explained that the Third-Party performance group and performance universe included funds that invest outside of TIPS/Treasuries. Management noted that the addition of corporate securities and equities in the peer group portfolios can impact relative returns and most likely resulted in some outperformance versus a 100% TIPS portfolio. Management stated that the Fund's Sub-Adviser, Babson Capital, had in fact executed successfully on its mandate of outperforming the Fund's benchmark gross of fees. In addition, Management noted that any attempt at enhancing returns by adding outside asset classes to the Fund might compromise asset allocations made by clients of MassMutual Retirement Services ("RS") and could preclude the Fund from future consideration as an offering in RS' asset allocation products.

With respect to the Fund's expenses, Management acknowledged that (i) the Fund's total expenses had ranked in the 5th quintile in the expense group and 4th quintile in the expense universe and (ii) the Fund's advisory fees had ranked in the 5th quintile in both the expense group and the expense universe. Management explained that although the Fund's profitability to MassMutual is low compared to other Funds, Management was proposing to waive ten basis points of administrative expenses on Class A and Class N shares in order to help improve the competitiveness of the Fund's fees and performance.

Prior to the votes being taken to approve the Contracts for the Inflation-Protected Bond Fund, the Independent Trustees met separately in executive session to discuss the appropriateness of such Contracts. In their deliberation with respect to these matters, the Independent Trustees were advised by their independent legal counsel. The Independent Trustees weighed the foregoing matters in light of the advice given to them by their independent legal counsel as to the review of investment advisory contracts. The Independent Trustees considered the additional information that had been presented and determined, on the basis of that information, to recommend for approval to the Board the Contracts for the Inflation-Protected Bond Fund. In arriving at a decision, the Independent Trustees did not identify any single matter as all-important or controlling. The foregoing summary does not detail all of the matters considered.

At the Board meeting on May 31, 2007, the Board, including the Independent Trustees, also approved the Contracts for each of the Money Market Fund, Short-Duration Bond Fund, Inflation-Protected Bond Fund, Core Bond Fund, Diversified Bond Fund, Strategic Income Fund, High Yield Fund, Balanced Fund, Value Fund, Enhanced Index Value Fund, Enhanced Index Core Equity Fund, Main Street Fund, Capital Appreciation Fund, Core Growth Fund, Enhanced Index Growth Fund, Discovery Value Fund, Small Capitalization Value Fund, Small Company Opportunities Fund, Global Fund, International Equity Fund and Focused International Fund.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Trustees and Shareholders of MassMutual Premier Funds:

We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the portfolios of investments, of MassMutual Premier Funds (the "Trust"), comprised of MassMutual Premier Money Market Fund, MassMutual Premier Short-Duration Bond Fund, MassMutual Premier Inflation-Protected Bond Fund, MassMutual Premier Core Bond Fund, MassMutual Premier Diversified Bond Fund, MassMutual Premier Strategic Income Fund, MassMutual Premier High Yield Fund, MassMutual Premier Balanced Fund, MassMutual Premier Value Fund, MassMutual Premier Enhanced Index Value Fund, MassMutual Premier Enhanced Index Core Equity Fund, MassMutual Premier Main Street Fund, MassMutual Premier Capital Appreciation Fund, MassMutual Premier Core Growth Fund, MassMutual Premier Enhanced Index Growth Fund, MassMutual Premier Discovery Value Fund, MassMutual Premier Small Capitalization Value Fund, MassMutual Premier Main Street Small Cap Fund, MassMutual Premier Small Company Opportunities Fund, MassMutual Premier Global Fund, MassMutual Premier International Equity Fund, and MassMutual Premier Focused International Fund (the "Funds") as of October 31, 2007, and the related statements of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Trust's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. The Trust is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion of the effectiveness of the Trust's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of October 31, 2007, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers; where replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the Funds constituting the Trust as of October 31, 2007, the results of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Fund Expenses October 31, 2007

Expense Examples   The following information is in regards to expenses for the six month period ended October 31, 2007:
As a shareholder of the Funds, you may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchase payments or redemptions; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees; and other Fund expenses. These examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Funds and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
These examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested for the six month period ended October 31, 2007.
 
Actual Expenses   The first line of each table on the following pages provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading entitled "Operating Expenses Incurred" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.  
Hypothetical
Example for Comparison
Purposes
  The second line of each table on the following pages provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund's actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund's actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the tables are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges (loads). Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.
