Managed
Distribution
Policy
:
The
Fund
has
implemented
a
managed
distribution
plan
(the
"Distribution
Plan")
whereby
the
Fund
will
distribute
a
level
distribution
amount
to
shareholders.
Until
April
30,
2025,
the
Fund
made
monthly
distributions
to
shareholders
at
the
rate
of
$0.0238
per
share.
Effective
May
1,
2025,
the
Fund
intends
to
make
monthly
distributions
to
shareholders
at
the
rate
of
$0.0265
per
share.
Management
will
generally
distribute
amounts
necessary
to
satisfy
the
Distribution
Plan
and
the
requirements
prescribed
by
excise
tax
rules
and
Subchapter
M
of
the
Internal
Revenue
Code
of
1986,
as
amended
(the
"Code").
The
Distribution
Plan
is
intended
to
provide
shareholders
with
a
consistent
distribution
each
month
and
is
intended
to
narrow
the
discount
between
the
market
price
and
the
NAV
of
the
Fund's
common
shares,
but
there
is
no
assurance
that
the
Distribution
Plan
will
be
successful
in
doing
so.
Under
the
Distribution
Plan,
to
the
extent
that
sufficient
investment
income
is
not
available
on
a
monthly
basis,
the
Fund
will
distribute
long-term
capital
gains
and/or
return
of
capital
in
order
to
maintain
its
managed
distribution
rate.
No
conclusions
should
be
drawn
about
the
Fund's
investment
performance
from
the
amount
of
the
Fund's
distributions
or
from
the
terms
of
the
Distribution
Plan.
The
Board
may
amend
the
terms
of
the
Distribution
Plan
or
terminate
the
Distribution
Plan
at
any
time
without
prior
notice
to
the
Fund’s
shareholders,
however,
at
this
time
there
are
no
reasonably
foreseeable
circumstances
that
might
cause
the
termination
of
the
Distribution
Plan.
The
amendment
or
termination
of
the
Distribution
Plan
could
have
an
adverse
effect
on
the
market
price
of
the
Fund’s
common
shares.
The
Distribution
Plan
will
be
subject
to
the
periodic
review
by
the
Board,
including
a
yearly
review
of
the
annual
minimum
fixed
rate
to
determine
if
an
adjustment
should
be
made.
Shareholders
should
not
draw
any
conclusions
about
the
Fund’s
investment
performance
from
the
amount
of
the
current
distribution
or
from
the
terms
of
the
Fund’s
Plan.
The
Fund
will
send
a
Form
1099-DIV
to
shareholders
for
the
calendar
year
that
will
describe
how
to
report
the
Fund’s
distributions
for
federal
income
tax
purposes.

Putnam
Managed
Municipal
Income
Trust
Dear
Shareholder,
This
annual
report
for
Putnam
Managed
Municipal
Income
Trust
covers
the
fiscal
year
ended
October
31,
2025
.
Fund
Overview
Q.
What
is
the
Fund's
investment
strategy?
A.
The
goal
of
the
Fund
is
to
seek
a
high
level
of
current
income
exempt
from
federal
income
tax.
The
Fund
intends
to
achieve
its
goal
by
investing
in
a
diversified
portfolio
of
tax-exempt
municipal
securities
which
management
believes
does
not
involve
undue
risk
to
income
or
principal.
Up
to
60%
of
the
Fund’s
assets
may
consist
of
high-yield
tax-
exempt
municipal
securities
that
are
below
investment-grade
and
involve
special
risk
considerations.
The
Fund
also
uses
leverage,
primarily
by
issuing
preferred
shares
in
an
effort
to
enhance
the
returns
for
the
common
shareholders.
The
Fund’s
shares
trade
on
a
stock
exchange
at
market
prices,
which
may
be
lower
than
the
Fund’s
net
asset
value.
Q.
What
were
the
overall
market
conditions
during
the
Fund's
reporting
period?
A.
Over
the
period,
U.S.
municipal
(muni)
bond
markets
delivered
solid
gains
despite
intermittent
volatility
and
policy
uncertainty.
As
President
Trump
began
his
second
term,
early
concerns
emerged
that
the
muni
bond
tax
exemption
would
be
repealed
or
significantly
curtailed
under
the
“One
Big
Beautiful
Bill
Act”
(OBBBA).
After
months
of
negotiations,
the
exemption
remained
intact
when
the
bill
was
passed
in
July
2025.
U.S.
Treasury
(UST)
yields
declined
across
the
curve
as
the
U.S.
Federal
Reserve
(Fed)
shifted
from
restrictive
policy
to
gradual
easing,
cutting
rates
by
a
cumulative
100
basis
points
(bps)
to
a
target
range
of
3.75-4.00%
at
the
end
of
the
period.
This
pivot
reflected
moderating
inflation,
with
core
CPI
declining
to
2.3%
in
April
2025
before
rising
back
to
3.0%
by
September,
alongside
signs
of
labor
market
cooling.
Economic
activity
remained
resilient
with
U.S.
gross
domestic
product
growth
rebounding
in
the
second
quarter
of
2025
after
a
weak
start
to
the
year.
Muni
issuance
over
the
last
12
months
totaled
approximately
US$551
billion,
higher
than
the
past
few
years
average,
peaking
in
June
with
a
one-month
record
issuance
of
US$58.7
billion,
according
to
Barclays.
Tariffs
remained
a
dominant
theme
following
the
“Liberation
Day”
announcement
of
sweeping
increases,
fueling
market
uncertainty
as
negotiations
with
major
trading
partners
took
several
unexpected
turns.
Early
fears
of
escalating
trade
wars
subsided
as
the
administration
secured
agreements
with
key
partners,
reducing
pressure
on
global
supply
chains.
While
the
resolution
eased
geopolitical
risk
premiums,
the
phased
implementations
of
higher
tariffs
on
select
imports
are
expected
to
contribute
to
upward
price
pressures
in
the
coming
quarters,
particularly
as
companies
deplete
their
inventories.
Q.
How
did
we
respond
to
these
changing
market
conditions?
A.
We
maintained
a
disciplined
approach
focused
on
bottom-
up
research
and
rigorous
security
selection
to
uncover
relative
value
opportunities.
In
positioning,
the
Fund
was
overweight
the
longer
end
of
the
curve
while
keeping
an
underweight
stance
in
high-quality
bonds
to
optimize
risk-
adjusted
returns.
Performance
Overview
For
the
12
months
under
review,
the
Fund

cumulative
total
returns
of
+2.06%
in
market
price
terms
and
+3.16%
in
net
asset
value
terms.
In
comparison,
the
Bloomberg
Municipal
Bond
Index,
which
is

measure
of
the
municipal
bond
market
with
maturities

distributions

For

performance

Q.
What
were
the
leading
contributors
to
performance?
A.
The
Fund’s
performance
during
the
period
was
primarily
driven
by
strategic
yield
curve
positioning,
with
an
overweight
allocation
to
municipal
bonds
maturing
in
10
and
20
years
delivering
notable
gains.
Rating
allocation
also
contributed
modestly,
as
the
positive
impact
from
overweight
positions
in
bonds
with
no
external
credit
rating
and
in
bonds
rated
below
investment-grade
helped
offset
losses
in
other
rating
categories.
Additionally,
security
selection
within
AAA
rated
bonds
provided
further
support,
which
mitigated
some
of
the
overall
downside.
Q.
What
were
the
leading
detractors
from
performance?
A.
The
leading
detractors
from
performance
during
the
period
were
primarily
linked
to
the
Fund’s
overweight
exposure
to
bonds
maturing
in
30
years.
Overweight
allocation
to
BBB
and
BB
rated
bonds
partially
offset
gains.
Furthermore,
security
selection
detracted
from
results,
driven
by
selection
in
AA
and
A
rated
bonds.
Q.
Were
there
any
significant
changes
to
the
Fund
during
the
reporting
period?
A.
There
were
no
substantial
changes
to
the
Fund’s
overall
positioning
and
portfolio
management
process.

Organization
and
Significant
Accounting
Policies
Putnam
Managed
Municipal
Income
Trust (Fund)
is
registered under
the
Investment
Company
Act
of
1940
(1940
Act)
as
a
closed-end
management
investment
company.
The
Fund
follows
the
accounting
and
reporting
guidance
in
Financial
Accounting
Standards
Board
(FASB)
Accounting
Standards
Codification
Topic
946,
Financial
Services
–
Investment
Companies
(ASC
946)
and
applies
the
specialized
accounting
and
reporting
guidance
in
U.S.
Generally
Accepted
Accounting
Principles
(U.S.
GAAP),
including,
but
not
limited
to,
ASC
946.
The
following
summarizes
the
Fund
's
significant
accounting
policies.
a.
Financial
Instrument
Valuation
The
Fund's
investments
in
financial
instruments
are
carried
at
fair
value
daily.
Fair
value
is
the
price
that
would
be
received
to
sell
an
asset
or
paid
to
transfer
a
liability
in
an
orderly
transaction
between
market
participants
on
the
measurement
date.
The
Fund
calculates
the
net
asset
value
(NAV)
per
share
each business
day as
of
4
p.m.
Eastern
time
or
the
regularly
scheduled
close
of
the
New
York
Stock
Exchange
(NYSE),
whichever
is
earlier.
Under
compliance
policies
and
procedures
approved
by
the Fund's
Board
of
Trustees
(the
Board),
the
Board
has
designated
the
Fund’s
investment
manager
as
the
valuation
designee
and
has
responsibility
for
oversight
of
valuation.
The
investment
manager
is
assisted
by
the
Fund’s
administrator
in
performing
this
responsibility,
including
leading
the
cross-
functional
Valuation
Committee
(VC).
The
Fund
may
utilize
independent
pricing
services,
quotations
from
securities
and
financial
instrument
dealers,
and
other
market
sources
to
determine
fair
value.
Debt
securities
generally
trade
in
the over-the-counter
(OTC)
market
rather
than
on
a
securities
exchange.
The
Fund's
pricing
services
use
multiple
valuation
techniques
to
determine
fair
value.
In
instances
where
sufficient
market
activity
exists,
the
pricing
services
may
utilize
a
market-based
approach
through
which
quotes
from
market
makers
are
used
to
determine
fair
value.
In
instances
where
sufficient
market
activity
may
not
exist
or
is
limited,
the
pricing
services
also
utilize
proprietary
valuation
models
which
may
consider
market
characteristics
such
as
benchmark
yield
curves,
credit
spreads,
estimated
default
rates,
anticipated
market
interest
rate
volatility,
coupon
rates,
anticipated
timing
of
principal
repayments,
underlying
collateral,
and
other
unique
security
features
in
order
to
estimate
the
relevant
cash
flows,
which
are
then
discounted
to
calculate
the
fair
value.
Investments
in open-end mutual
funds
are
valued
at
the
closing
NAV.
Derivative
financial
instruments
listed
on
an
exchange
are
valued
at
the
official
closing
price
of
the
day.
Certain
derivative
financial
instruments
are
centrally
cleared
or
trade
in
the
OTC
market.
The
Fund's
pricing
services
use
various
techniques
including
industry
standard
option
pricing
models
and
proprietary
discounted
cash
flow
models
to
determine
the
fair
value
of
those
instruments.
The
Fund's
net
benefit
or
obligation
under
the
derivative
contract,
as
measured
by
the
fair
value
of
the
contract,
is
included
in
net
assets.
The
Fund
has
procedures
to
determine
the
fair
value
of
financial
instruments
for
which
market
prices
are
not
reliable
or
readily
available.
Under
these
procedures,
the Fund
primarily
employs
a
market-based
approach
which
may
use
related
or
comparable
assets
or
liabilities,
recent
transactions,
market
multiples,
and
other
relevant
information
for
the
investment
to
determine
the
fair
value
of
the
investment.
An
income-based
valuation
approach
may
also
be
used
in
which
the
anticipated
future
cash
flows
of
the
investment
are
discounted
to
calculate
fair
value.
Discounts
may
also
be
applied
due
to
the
nature
or
duration
of
any
restrictions
on
the
disposition
of
the
investments.
Due
to
the
inherent
uncertainty
of
valuations
of
such
investments,
the
fair
values
may
differ
significantly
from
the
values
that
would
have
been
used
had
an
active
market
existed.
b.
Securities
Purchased
on
a
When-Issued,
Forward
Commitment or
Delayed
Delivery
Basis
The
Fund
may
purchase
securities
on
a when-issued,
forward
commitment
or
delayed
delivery basis,
with
payment
and
delivery
scheduled
for
a
future
date.
These
transactions
are
subject
to
market
fluctuations
and
are
subject
to
the
risk
that
the
value
at
delivery
may
be
more
or
less
than
the
trade
date
purchase
price.
Although
the
Fund
will
generally
purchase
these
securities
with
the
intention
of
holding
the
securities, it
may
sell
the
securities
before
the
settlement
date.

c.
Derivative
Financial
Instruments
The
Fund invested
in
derivative
financial
instruments
in
order
to
manage
risk
or
gain
exposure
to
various
other
investments
or
markets.
Derivatives
are
financial
contracts
based
on
an
underlying
or
notional
amount,
require
no
initial
investment
or
an
initial
net
investment
that
is
smaller
than
would
normally
be
required
to
have
a
similar
response
to
changes
in
market
factors,
and
require
or
permit
net
settlement.
Derivatives
contain
various
risks
including
the
potential
inability
of
the
counterparty
to
fulfill
their
obligations
under
the
terms
of
the
contract,
the
potential
for
an
illiquid
secondary
market,
and/or
the
potential
for
market
movements
which
expose
the
Fund
to
gains
or
losses
in
excess
of
the
amounts
shown
in
the
Statement
of
Assets

d.
Tender
Option
Bonds
The
Fund
may
participate
in
transactions
whereby
a
fixed-
rate
bond
is
transferred
to
a
tender
option
bond
trust
(TOB
trust)
sponsored
by
a
broker.
The
TOB
trust
funds
the
purchase
of
the
fixed
rate
bonds
by
issuing
floating-rate
bonds
to
third
parties
and
allowing
the
Fund
to
retain
the
residual
interest
in
the
TOB
trust’s
assets
and
cash
flows,
which
are
in
the
form
of
inverse
floating
rate
bonds.
The
inverse
floating
rate
bonds
held
by
the
Fund
give
the
Fund
the
right
to
(1)
cause
the
holders
of
the
floating
rate
bonds
to
tender
their
notes
at
par,
and
(2)
to
have
the
fixed-rate
bond
held
by
the
TOB
trust
transferred
to
the
Fund,
causing
the
TOB
trust
to
collapse.
The
Fund
accounts
for
the
transfer
of
the
fixed-rate
bond
to
the
TOB
trust
as
a
secured
borrowing
by
including
the
fixed-rate
bond
in
the
Fund’s
portfolio
and
including
the
floating
rate
bond
as
a
liability
in
the
Statement
of
Assets
and
Liabilities.
At
the
close
of
the
reporting
period,
the
Fund’s
investments
with
a
value
of
$23,329,520
were
held
by
the
TOB
trust
and
served
as
collateral
for
$16,077,030 in
floating-rate
bonds
outstanding.
For
the
reporting
period
ended
October
31,
2025,
the
Fund
incurred
interest
expense
of
$619,180
for
these
investments
based
on
an
average
interest
rate
of
2.76%.
e.
Income
Taxes
It
is the Fund's
policy
to
qualify
as
a
regulated
investment
company
under
the
Internal
Revenue
Code. The Fund
intends
to
distribute
to
shareholders
substantially
all
of
its
taxable
income
and
net
realized
gains
to
relieve
it
from
federal
income
and
excise
taxes.
As
a
result,
no
provision
for
U.S.
federal
income
taxes
is
required.
The Fund
may
recognize
an
income
tax
liability
related
to
its
uncertain
tax
positions
under
U.S.
GAAP
when
the
uncertain
tax
position
has
a
less
than
50%
probability
that
it
will
be
sustained
upon
examination
by
the
tax
authorities
based
on
its
technical
merits.
As
of
October
31,
2025, the Fund
has
determined
that
no
tax
liability
is
required
in
its
financial
statements
related
to
uncertain
tax
positions
for
any
open
tax
years
(or
expected
to
be
taken
in
future
tax
years).
Open
tax
years
are
those
that
remain
subject
to
examination
and
are
based
on
the
statute
of
limitations
in
each
jurisdiction
in
which
the Fund
invests.
f.
Security
Transactions,
Investment
Income,
Expenses
and
Distributions
Security
transactions
are
accounted
for
on
trade
date.
Realized
gains
and
losses
on
security
transactions
are
determined
on
a
specific
identification
basis.
Interest
income
(including
interest
income
from
payment-in-kind
securities,
if
any)
and
estimated
expenses
are
accrued
daily.
Amortization
of
premium
and
accretion
of
discount
on
debt
securities
are
included
in
interest
income.
Paydown
gains
and
losses
are
recorded
as
an
adjustment
to
interest
income.
Dividend
income
is
recorded
on
the
ex-dividend
date.

(continued)
Putnam
Managed
Municipal
Income
Trust
Notes
to
Financial
Statements
Distributions
to
common
and
preferred
shareholders
from
net
investment
income,
if
any,
are
recorded
by
the
Fund
on
the
ex-dividend
date.
Distributions
from
capital
gains,
if
any,
are
recorded
on
the
ex-dividend
date
and
paid
at
least
annually.
The
Fund
pays
targeted
distribution
rates
to
its
common
shareholders.
Distributions
are
sourced
first
from
tax-exempt
and
ordinary
income.
The
balance
of
the
distributions,
if
any,
comes
next
from
capital
gain
and
then
will
constitute
a
return
of
capital.
A
return
of
capital
is
not
taxable;
rather
it
reduces
a
shareholder’s
tax
basis
in
their
shares
of
the
Fund.
The
Fund
may
make
return
of
capital
distributions
to
achieve
the
targeted
distribution
rates.
Dividends
on
remarketed
preferred
shares
become
payable
when,
as
and
if
declared
by
the
Trustees.
Each
dividend
period
for
the
remarketed
preferred
Series
A
shares
is
generally
a
28
day
period,
and
generally
a
7
day
period
for
Series
C.
The
applicable
dividend
rate
for
the
remarketed
preferred
shares
on October
31,
2025
was
4.50%
on
Series
A,
and
4.41%
for
Series
C.
The
amount
and
character
of
income
and
gains
to
be
distributed
are
determined
in
accordance
with
income
tax
regulations,
which
may
differ
from
generally
accepted
accounting
principles.
Dividend
sources
are
estimated
at
the
time
of
declaration.
Actual
results
may
vary.
Any
non-
taxable
return
of
capital
cannot
be
determined
until
final
tax
calculations
are
completed
after
the
end
of
the
Fund’s
fiscal
year.
Reclassifications
are
made
to
the
Fund’s
capital
accounts
to
reflect
income
and
gains
available
for
distribution
(or
available
capital
loss
carryovers)
under
income
tax
regulations.
During
the
reporting
period,
the
Fund
has
experienced
unsuccessful
remarketings
of
its
remarketed
preferred
shares.
As
a
result,
dividends
to
the
remarketed
preferred
shares
have
been
paid
at
the
“maximum
dividend
rate,”
pursuant
to
the
Fund’s
by-laws,
which,
based
on
the
current
credit
quality
of
the
remarketed
preferred
shares,
equals
110%
of
the
60-day
“AA”
composite
commercial
paper
rate.
g.
Insurance
The
scheduled
payments
of
interest
and
principal
for
each
insured
municipal
security
in
the
Fund
are
insured
by
either
a
new
issue
insurance
policy
or
a
secondary
insurance
policy.
Depending
on
the
type
of
coverage,
premiums
for
insurance
are
either
added
to
the
cost
basis
of
the
security
or
paid
by
a
third
party.
Insurance
companies
typically
insure
municipal
bonds
that
tend
to
be
of
very
high
quality,
with
the
majority
of
underlying
municipal
bonds
rated
A
or
better.
However,
an
event
involving
an
insurer
could
have
an
adverse
effect
on
the
value
of
the
securities
insured
by
that
insurance
company.
There
can
be
no
assurance
the
insurer
will
be
able
to
fulfill
its
obligations
under
the
terms
of
the
policy.
h.
Accounting
Estimates
The
preparation
of
financial
statements
in
accordance
with
U.S.
GAAP
requires
management
to
make
estimates
and
assumptions
that
affect
the
reported
amounts
of
assets
and
liabilities
at
the
date
of
the
financial
statements
and
the
amounts
of
income
and
expenses
during
the
reporting
period.
Actual
results
could
differ
from
those
estimates.
i.
Guarantees
and
Indemnifications
Under
the Fund's
organizational
documents,
its
officers
and trustees
are
indemnified
by
the
Fund against
certain
liabilities
arising
out
of
the
performance
of
their
duties
to
the
Fund.
Additionally,
in
the
normal
course
of
business,
the
Fund
enters
into
contracts
with
service
providers
that
contain
general
indemnification
clauses.
The Fund's
maximum
exposure
under
these
arrangements
is
unknown
as
this
would
involve
future
claims
that
may
be
made
against
the Fund
that
have
not
yet
occurred.
Currently,
the Fund
expects
the
risk
of
loss
to
be
remote.

Notes
to
Financial

In
September
2025,
the
Board
authorized
management
to
renew
the
Fund’s
open-market
share
repurchase
program.
Under
the
program,
the
Fund
may
purchase,
from
time
to
time,
fund
shares
in
open-market
transactions,
at
the
discretion
of
management.
This
authorization
remains
in
effect.
Repurchases
are
made
when
the
Fund’s
shares
are
trading
at
less
than
net
asset
value
and
therefore
increase
the
net
asset
value
per
share
of
the
Fund’s
remaining
shares.
Transactions
in
the
Fund's
shares
were
as
follows:

Preferred
Shares
The
Series
A
(240)
and
C
(1,507)
remarketed
Preferred
shares
are
redeemable
at
the
option
of
the
Fund
on
any
dividend
payment
date
at
a
redemption
price
of
$100,000
per
Series
A
remarketed
Preferred
share
and
$50,000
per
Series
C
remarketed
Preferred
share,
plus
an
amount
equal
to
any
dividends
accumulated
on
a
daily
basis
but
unpaid
through
the
redemption
date
(whether
or
not
such
dividends
have
been
declared)
and,
in
certain
circumstances,
a
call
premium.
It
is
anticipated
that
dividends
paid
to
holders
of
remarketed
preferred
shares
will
be
considered
tax-exempt
dividends
under
the
Internal
Revenue
Code
of
1986.
To
the
extent
that
the
Fund
earns
taxable
income
and
capital
gains
by
the
conclusion
of
a
fiscal
year,
it
may
be
required
to
apportion
to
the
holders
of
the
remarketed
preferred
shares
throughout
that
year
additional
dividends
as
necessary
to
result
in
an
after-tax
equivalent
to
the
applicable
dividend
rate
for
the
period.
Under
the
1940
Act,
the
Fund
is
required
to
maintain
asset
coverage
of
at
least
200%
with
respect
to
the
remarketed
preferred
shares.
Additionally,
the
Fund’s
bylaws
impose
more
stringent
asset
coverage
requirements
and
restrictions
relating
to
the
rating
of
the
remarketed
preferred
shares
by
the
shares’
rating
agencies.
Should
these
requirements
not
be
met,
or
should
dividends
accrued
on
the
remarketed
preferred
shares
not
be
paid,
the
Fund
may
be
restricted
in
its
ability
to
declare
dividends
to
common
shareholders
or
may
be
required
to
redeem
certain
of
the
remarketed
preferred
shares.
At
October
31,
2025,
no
such
restrictions
have
been
placed
on
the
Fund.

Management
Fees
The
Fund
pays Advisers
for
management
and
investment
advisory
services
quarterly
based
on
the
average
net
assets
of
the
Fund,
including
assets
attributable
to
preferred
shares.
Such
fee
is
based
on
the
following
annual
rates
based
on
the
average
weekly
net
assets
attributable
to
common
and
preferred
shares.
The
lesser
of
(i)
0.550%
of
average net
assets
attributable
to
common
and
preferred
shares
outstanding,
or
(ii)
the
following
rates:
For
the
reporting
period,
the
management
fee
represented
an
effective
rate
(excluding
the
impact
from
any
expense
waivers
in
effect)
of 0.550%
of
the
Fund’s
average
net
assets
attributable
to

exceed
the
Fund’s
gross
income
attributable
to
the
proceeds
of
the
remarketed
preferred
shares
during
that
period,
then
the
fee
payable
to Advisers
for
that
period
will
be
reduced
by
the
amount
of
the
excess
(but
not
more
than
the
effective
management
fees
rate
under
the
contract
multiplied
by
the
liquidation
preference
of
the
remarketed
preferred
shares
outstanding
during
the
period).
For
the
reporting
period, Advisers
reimbursed
$547,186 to
the
Fund.
Any
amount
in
excess
of
the
fee
payable
to Advisers
for
a
given
period
will
be
used
to
reduce
any
subsequent
fee
payable
to Advisers,
as
may
be
necessary.
As
of
the

this
excess
amounted
to
$2,979,805.

Investments
in
Affiliated
Management
Investment
Companies
The
Fund
invests
in
one
or
more
affiliated
management
investment
companies.
As
defined
in
the
1940
Act,
an
investment
is
deemed
to
be
a
“Controlled
Affiliate”
of
a
fund
when
a
fund
owns,
either
directly
or
indirectly,
25%
or
more
of
the
affiliated
fund’s
outstanding
shares
or
has
the
power
to
exercise
control
over
management
or
policies
of
such
fund.
The
Fund
does
not
invest
for
purposes
of
exercising
a
controlling
influence
over
the
management
or
policies.
Management
fees
paid
by
the
Fund
are
waived
on
assets
invested
in
the
affiliated
management
investment
companies,
as
noted
in
the
Statement
of
Operations,
in
an
amount
not
to
exceed
the
management
and
administrative
fees,
if
applicable, paid
directly
or
indirectly
by
each
affiliate.
During
the

The Fund has
entered
into
arrangements
with
PSERV
and
its
custodian
whereby
credits
realized
as
a
result
of
uninvested
cash
balances
are
used
to
reduce
a
portion
of
the
Fund’s
transfer
agent
and
custodian
fees,
respectively.
During
the
year
ended
October
31,
2025,
the
fees
were
reduced
as
noted
in
the
Statement
of
Operations.
Effective

Fair
Value
Measurements
The
Fund
follows
a
fair
value
hierarchy
that
distinguishes
between
market
data
obtained
from
independent
sources
(observable
inputs)
and
the Fund's
own
market
assumptions
(unobservable
inputs).
These
inputs
are
used
in
determining
the
value
of
the
Fund's financial
instruments
and
are
summarized
in
the
following
fair
value
hierarchy:
Level
1
–
quoted
prices
in
active
markets
for
identical
financial
instruments
Level
2
–
other
significant
observable
inputs
(including
quoted
prices
for
similar
financial
instruments,
interest
rates,
prepayment
speed,
credit
risk,
etc.)
Level
3
–
significant
unobservable
inputs
(including
the
Fund's
own
assumptions
in
determining
the
fair
value
of
financial
instruments)
The
input
levels
are
not
necessarily
an
indication
of
the
risk
or
liquidity
associated
with
financial
instruments
at
that
level.

To
the

of

Trust
Opinion
on
the
Financial
Statements
We
have
audited
the
accompanying
statement
of
assets
and
liabilities,
including
the
schedule
of
investments,
of
Putnam
Managed
Municipal
Income
Trust
(the
“Fund”)
as
of
October
31,
2025,
the
related
statement
of
operations
for
the
year
ended
October
31,
2025,
the
statements
of
changes
in
net
assets
for
each
of
the
two
years
in
the
period
ended
October
31,
2025,
including
the
related
notes,
and
the
financial
highlights
for
each
of
the
five
years
in
the
period
ended
October
31,
2025
(collectively
referred
to
as
the
“financial
statements”).
In
our
opinion,
the
financial
statements
present
fairly,
in
all
material
respects,
the
financial
position
of
the
Fund
as
of
October
31,
2025,
the
results
of
its
operations
for
the
year
then
ended,
the
changes
in
its
net
assets
for
each
of
the
two
years
in
the
period
ended
October
31,
2025
and
the
financial
highlights
for
each
of
the
five
years
in
the
period
ended
October
31,
2025
in
conformity
with
accounting
principles
generally
accepted
in
the
United
States
of
America.
Basis
for
Opinion
These
financial
statements
are
the
responsibility
of
the
Fund’s
management.
Our
responsibility
is
to
express
an
opinion
on
the
Fund’s
financial
statements
based
on
our
audits.
We
are
a
public
accounting
firm
registered
with
the
Public
Company
Accounting
Oversight
Board
(United
States)
(PCAOB)
and
are
required
to
be
independent
with
respect
to
the
Fund
in
accordance
with
the
U.S.
federal
securities
laws
and
the
applicable
rules
and
regulations
of
the
Securities
and
Exchange
Commission
and
the
PCAOB.
We
conducted
our
audits
of
these
financial
statements
in
accordance
with
the
standards
of
the
PCAOB.
Those
standards
require
that
we
plan
and
perform
the
audit
to
obtain
reasonable
assurance
about
whether
the
financial
statements
are
free
of
material
misstatement,
whether
due
to
error
or
fraud.
Our
audits
included
performing
procedures
to
assess
the
risks
of
material
misstatement
of
the
financial
statements,
whether
due
to
error
or
fraud,
and
performing
procedures
that
respond
to
those
risks.
Such
procedures
included
examining,
on
a
test
basis,
evidence
regarding
the
amounts
and
disclosures
in
the
financial
statements.
Our
audits
also
included
evaluating
the
accounting
principles
used
and
significant
estimates
made
by
management,
as
well
as
evaluating
the
overall
presentation
of
the
financial
statements.
Our
procedures
included
confirmation
of
securities
owned
as
of
October
31,
2025
by
correspondence
with
the
custodian,
transfer
agent,
administrative
agent
for
the
tender
option
bond
trust
and
brokers;
when
replies
were
not
received
from
brokers,
we
performed
other
auditing
procedures.
We
believe
that
our
audits
provide
a
reasonable
basis
for
our
opinion.

(unaudited)
Share
Repurchase
Program
In
September
2025,
the
Trustees
of
the
Fund
authorized
a
share
repurchase
program
that
allows
the
Fund
to
repurchase,
beginning
October
1,

up
to
10%
of
the
Fund's
common
shares
outstanding
as
of
September

Managed
Distribution
Plan
The
Fund
has
implemented
a
managed
distribution
plan
(the
“Distribution
Plan”)
whereby
the
Fund
will
distribute
a
level
distribution
amount
to
shareholders.
Until
April
30,
2025,
the
Fund
made
monthly
distributions
to
shareholders
at
the
rate
of
$0.0238
per
share.
Effective
May
1,
2025,
the
Fund
intends
to
make
monthly
distributions
to
shareholders
at
the
rate
of
$0.0265
per
share.
Management
will
generally
distribute
amounts
necessary
to
satisfy
the
Distribution
Plan
and
the
requirements
prescribed
by
excise
tax
rules
and
Subchapter
M
of
the
Internal
Revenue
Code.
The
Distribution
Plan
is
intended
to
provide
shareholders
with
a
consistent
distribution
each
month
and
is
intended
to
narrow
the
discount
between
the
market
price
and
the
NAV
of
the
Fund’s
common
shares,
but
there
is
no
assurance
that
the
Distribution
Plan
will
be
successful
in
doing
so.
Under
the
Distribution
Plan,
to
the
extent
that
sufficient
investment
income
is
not
available
on
a
monthly
basis,
the
Fund
will
distribute
long-term
capital
gains
and/or
return
of
capital
in
order
to
maintain
its
managed
distribution
rate.
No
conclusions
should
be
drawn
about
the
Fund’s
investment
performance
from
the
amount
of
the
Fund’s
distributions
or
from
the
terms
of
the
Distribution
Plan.
The
Board
may
amend
the
terms
of
the
Distribution
Plan

Plan
at
any

without
prior
notice
to
the

shareholders,
however,
at
this
time
there
are
no
reasonably
foreseeable
circumstances
that
might
cause
the
termination
of
the
Distribution
Plan.
The
amendment
or
termination
of
the
Distribution
Plan
could
have
an
adverse
effect
on
the
market
price
of
the
Fund’s
common
shares.
The
Distribution
Plan
will
be
subject
to
the
periodic
review
by
the
Board,
including
a
yearly
review
of
the
annual
minimum
fixed
rate
to
determine
if
an
adjustment
should
be
made.
Shareholders
should
not
draw
any
conclusions
about
the
Fund’s
investment
performance
from
the
amount
of
the
current
distribution
of
from
the
terms
of
the
Distribution
Plan.
The
Fund
will
send
a
Form
1099-DIV
to
shareholders
for
the
calendar
year
that
will
describe
how
to
report
the
Fund’s
distributions
for
federal
income
tax
purposes.
In
compliance
with
Rule
19a-1
of
the
1940
Act,
shareholders
will
receive
a
notice
that
details
the
source
of
income
for
each
dividend
such
as
net
investment
income,
gain
from
the
sale
of
securities
and
return
of
principal.
However,
determination
of
the
actual
source
of
the
Fund’s
dividend
can
only
be
made
at
year-end.
The
actual
source
amounts
of
all
Fund
dividends
will
be
included
in
the
Fund’s
annual
or
semiannual
reports.
In
addition,
the
tax
treatment
may
differ
from
the
accounting
treatment
used
to
calculate
the
source
of
the
Fund’s
dividends
as
shown
on
shareholders’
statements.
Shareholders
should
refer
to
their
Form
1099-DIV
for
the
character
and
amount
of
distributions
for
income
tax
reporting
purposes.
Since
each
shareholder’s
tax
situation
is
unique,
it
may
be
advisable
to
consult
a
tax
advisor
as
to
the
appropriate
treatment
of
Fund
distributions.
Information
about
the
Fund’s
goal,
investment
strategies,
principal
risks,
and
fundamental
investment
policies
Goal
The
goal
of
the
Fund
is
to
seek
a
high
level
of
current
income
exempt
from
federal
income
tax.
The
Fund’s
main
investment
strategies
and
related
risks
This
section
contains
detail
regarding
the
Fund’s
main
investment
strategies
and
the
related
risks
you
face
as
a
Fund
shareholder.
It
is
important
to
keep
in
mind
that
risk
and
reward
generally
go
hand
in
hand;
the
higher
the
potential
reward,
the
greater
the
risk.
The
Fund
intends
to
achieve
its
goal
by
investing
in
a
diversified
portfolio
of
tax-exempt
municipal
securities
which
Putnam
Management
believes
does
not
involve
undue
risk
to
income
or
principal.
Up
to
60%
of
the
Fund’s
assets
may
consist
of
high-yield
tax-exempt
municipal
securities
that
are
below
investment
grade
and
involve
special
risk
considerations.
The
Fund
also
uses
leverage,
primarily
by
issuing
preferred
shares
in
an
effort
to
enhance
the
returns
for
the
common
shareholders.
The
Fund’s
shares
trade
on
a
stock
exchange
at
market
prices,
which
may
be
lower
than
the
Fund’s
net
asset
value.

Tax-exempt
investments.
These
investments
are
issued
by
or
for
states,
territories
or
possessions
of
the
United
States
or
by
their
political
subdivisions,
agencies,
authorities
or
other
government
entities,
and
the
income
from
these
investments
is
exempt
from
federal
income
tax.
These
investments
are
issued
to
raise
money
for
public
purposes,
such
as
loans
for
the
construction
of
housing,
schools
or
hospitals,
or
to
provide
temporary
financing
in
anticipation
of
the
receipt
of
taxes
and
other
revenue.
They
also
include
private
activity
obligations
of
public
authorities
to
finance
privately
owned
or
operated
facilities.
Changes
in
law
or
adverse
determinations
by
the
Internal
Revenue
Service
could
make
the
income
from
some
of
these
obligations
taxable.
Interest
income
from
private
activity
bonds
may
be
subject
to
federal
AMT
for
individuals.
Corporate
shareholders
will
be
required
to
include
all

dividends
in
determining
their
federal
AMT.
For
more
information,
including
possible
state,
local
and
other
taxes,
contact
your
tax
advisor.
•
General
obligations.
These
are
backed
by
the
issuer’s
authority
to
levy
taxes
and
are
considered
an
obligation
of
the
issuer.
They
are
payable
from
the
issuer’s
general
unrestricted
revenues,
although
payment
may
depend
upon
government
appropriation
or
aid
from
other
governments.
These
investments
may
be
vulnerable
to
legal
limits
on
a
government’s
power
to
raise
revenue
or
increase
taxes,
as
well
as
economic
or
other
developments
that
can
reduce
revenues.
•
Revenue
obligations.
These
are
payable
from
revenue
earned
by
a
particular
project
or
other
revenue
source.
They
include
private
activity
bonds
such
as
industrial
development
bonds,
which
are
paid
only
from
the
revenues
of
the
private
owners
or
operators
of
the
facilities.
Investors
can
look
only
to
the
revenue
generated
by
the
project
or
the
private
company
operating
the
project
rather
than
the
credit
of
the
state
or
local
government
authority
issuing
the
bonds.
Revenue
obligations
are
typically
subject
to
greater
credit
risk
than
general
obligations
because
of
the
relatively
limited
source
of
revenue.
•
Tender
option
bonds.
The
Fund
may
leverage
its
assets
through
the
use
of
proceeds
received
through
tender
option
bond
transactions.
In
a
tender
option
bond
transaction,
the
Fund
transfers
a
fixed-rate
municipal
bond
to
a
TOB
trust
sponsored
by
a
broker.
The
TOB
trust
funds
the
purchase
of
the
fixed
rate
bonds
by
issuing
short-term
floating-rate
bonds
to
third
parties
and
allowing
the
Fund
to
retain
the
residual
interest
in
the
TOB
trust’s
assets
and
cash
flows,
which
are
in
the
form
of
inverse
floating
rate
bonds.
The
inverse
floating
rate
bonds
held
by
the
Fund
give
the
Fund
the
right
to
(1)
cause
the
holders
of
the
floating
rate
bonds
to
tender
their
notes
at
par,
and
(2)
to
have
the
fixed-rate
bond
held
by
the
TOB
trust
transferred
to
the
Fund,
causing
the
TOB
trust
to
be
liquidated.
The
Fund
will
look
through
to
the
underlying
municipal
bond
held
by
a
TOB
trust
for
purposes
of
the
Fund’s
80%
policy.
•
Interest
rate
risk.
The
values
of
bonds
and
other
debt
instruments
usually
rise
and
fall
in
response
to
changes
in
interest
rates.
Interest
rates
can
change
in
response
to
the
supply
and
demand
for
credit,
government
and/or
central
bank
monetary
policy
and
action,
inflation
rates,
and
other
factors.
Declining
interest
rates
generally
result
in
an
increase
in
the
value
of
existing
debt
instruments,
and
rising
interest
rates
generally
result
in
a
decrease
in
the
value
of
existing
debt
instruments.
Changes
in
a
debt
instrument’s
value
usually
will
not
affect
the
amount
of
interest
income
paid
to
the
Fund,
but
will
affect
the
value
of
the
Fund’s
shares.
Interest
rate
risk
is
generally
greater
for
investments
with
longer
maturities.
Some
investments
give
the
issuer
the
option
to
call
or
redeem
an
investment
before
its
maturity
date.
If
an
issuer
calls
or
redeems
an
investment
during
a
time
of
declining
interest
rates,
we
might
have
to
reinvest
the
proceeds
in
an
investment
offering
a
lower
yield,
and,
therefore,
the
Fund
might
not
benefit
from
any
increase
in
value
as
a
result
of
declining
interest
rates.
•
Credit
risk.
Investors
normally
expect
to
be
compensated
in
proportion
to
the
risk
they
are
assuming.
Thus,
debt
of
issuers
with
poor
credit
prospects
usually
offers
higher
yields
than
debt
of
issuers
with
more
secure
credit.
Higher-rated
investments
generally
have
lower
credit
risk.
We
invest
in
a
combination
of
higher-rated
and
lower-rated
investments.
The
Fund’s
lower-rated
investments
consist
of
higher-yielding,
higher-risk
debt
securities
that
are
rated
below
BBB
or
its
equivalent
at
the
time
of
purchase
by
a
nationally
recognized
securities
rating
agency
rating
the
investment,
or
are
unrated
investments
that
we
think

of
the
Fund’s
total
assets
in

the

of

investments
that
we
think
are
of
comparable
quality.
We
will
not
necessarily
sell
an
investment
if
its
rating
is
reduced
after
we
buy
it.
Investments
rated
below
BBB
or
its
equivalent
are
below-
investment-grade
(sometimes
referred
to
as
“junk
bonds”)
can
be
more
sensitive
to
changes
in
markets,
credit
conditions,
and
interest
rates
and
may
be
considered
speculative.
This
rating
reflects
a
greater
possibility
that
the
issuers
may
be
unable
to
make
timely
payments
of
interest
and
principal
and
thus
default.
If
default
occurs,
or
is
perceived
as
likely
to
occur,
the
value
of
the
investment
will
usually
be
more
volatile
and
is
likely
to
fall.
The
value
of
a
debt
instrument
may
also
be
affected
by
changes
in,
or
perceptions
of,
the
financial
condition
of
the
issuer,
borrower,
counterparty,
or
other
entity,
or
underlying
collateral
or
assets,
or
changes
in,
or
perceptions
of,
specific
or
general
market,
economic,
industry,
political,
regulatory,
geopolitical,
environmental,
public
health,
and
other
conditions.
A
default
or
expected
default
could
also
make
it
difficult
for
us
to
sell
the
investment
at
a
price
approximating
the
value
we
had
previously
placed
on
it.
Tax-exempt
debt,
particularly
lower-
rated
tax-exempt
debt,
usually
has
a
more
limited
market
than
taxable
debt,
which
may
at
times
make
it
difficult
for
us
to
buy
or
sell
certain
debt
instruments
or
to
establish
their
fair
value.
Credit
risk
is
generally
greater
for
investments
that
are
required
to
make
interest
payments
only
at
maturity
rather
than
at
intervals
during
the
life
of
the
investment.
Credit
ratings
are
based
largely
on
the
issuer’s
historical
financial
condition
and
a
rating
agency’s
investment
analysis
at
the
time
of
rating.
The
rating
assigned
to
any
particular
investment
does
not
necessarily
reflect
the
issuer’s
current
financial
condition,
and
does
not
reflect
an
assessment
of
the
investment’s
volatility
or
liquidity.
Although
we
consider
credit
ratings
in
making
investment
decisions,
we
perform
our
own
investment
analysis
and
do
not
rely
only
on
ratings
assigned
by
the
rating
agencies.
The
amount
of
information
about
the
financial
condition
of
issuers
of
tax-exempt
debt
may
not
be
as
extensive
as
that
which
is
made
available
by
companies
whose
stock
or
debt
is
publicly
traded.
Our
success
in
achieving
the
Fund’s
investment
objective
may
depend
more
on
our
own
credit
analysis
when
we
buy
lower-
quality
bonds
than
when
we
buy
higher
quality
bonds.
We
may
have
to
participate
in
legal
proceedings
or
take
possession
of
and
manage
assets
that
secure
the
issuer’s
obligations.
Our
ability
to
enforce
rights
in
bankruptcy
proceedings
may
be
more
limited
than
would
be
the
case
for
taxable
debt.
This
could
increase
the
Fund’s
operating
expenses
and
decrease
its
net
asset
value.
Any
income
that
arises
from
ownership
or
operation
of
assets
would
be
taxable.
Although
investment-grade
investments
generally
have
lower
credit
risk,
they
may
share
some
of
the
risks
of
lower-rated
investments.
Bond
investments
may
be
more
susceptible
to
downgrades
or
defaults
during
economic
downturns
or
other
periods
of
economic
stress,
which
in
turn
could
affect
the
market
values
and
marketability
of
many
or
all
bond
obligations
of
issuers
in
a
state,
U.S.
territory,
or
possession.
We
may
buy
investments
that
are
insured
as
to
the
payment
of
principal
and
interest
in
the
event
the
issuer
defaults.
Any
reduction
in
the
insurer’s
ability
to
pay
claims
may
adversely
affect
the
value
of
insured
investments
and,
consequently,
the
value
of
the
Fund’s
shares.
•
Focus
of
investments.
We
may
make
significant
investments
in
a
particular
segment
of
the
tax-exempt
debt
market,
such
as
tobacco
settlement
bonds
or
revenue
bonds
for
health
care
facilities,
housing
or
airports.
We
may
also
make
significant
investments
in
the
debt
of
issuers
located
in
the
same
state.
These
investments
may
cause
the
value
of
the
Fund’s
shares
to
fluctuate
more
than
the
values
of
shares
of
funds
that
invest
in
a
greater
variety
of
investments.
Certain
events
may
adversely
affect
all
investments
within
a
particular
market
segment.
Examples
include
legislation
or
court
decisions,
concerns
about
pending
legislation
or
court
decisions,
and
lower
demand
for
the
services
or
products
provided
by
a
particular
market
segment.
Investing
in
issuers
located
in
the
same
state
may
make
the
Fund
more
vulnerable
to
that
state’s
economy
and
to
factors
affecting
its
tax-exempt
issuers,
such
as
their
ability
to
collect
revenues
to
meet
payment
obligations.
At
times,
the
Fund
and
other
accounts
that
Putnam
Management
and
its
affiliates
manage
may
own
all
or
most
of
the
debt
of
a
particular
issuer.
This
concentration
of
ownership
may
make
it
more
difficult
to
sell,
or
to
determine
the
fair
value
of,
these
investments.
•
Derivatives.
We
may
engage
in
a
variety
of
transactions
involving
derivatives,
such
as
municipal
rate
locks,
tender
option
bond
transactions,
futures
and
swap
contracts,
although
they
do
not
represent
a
primary
focus
of
the
Fund.
Derivatives
are
financial
instruments
whose
value
depends
PUTNAM
MANAGED

Important
Information
to
Shareholders
(unaudited)
upon,
or
is
derived
from,
the
value
of
something
else,
such
as
one
or
more
underlying
investments,
pools
of
investments
or
indexes.
We
may
make
use
of
“short”
derivative
positions,
the
values
of
which
typically
move
in
the
opposite
direction
from
the
price
of
the
underlying
investment,
pool
of
investments,
or
index.
We
may
use
derivatives
both
for
hedging
and
non-hedging
purposes,
such
as
to
modify
the
behavior
of
an
investment
so
that
it
responds
differently
than
it
would
otherwise
respond
to
changes
in
a
particular
interest
rate
or
to
modify
the
Fund’s
duration.
Derivatives
may
increase
or
decrease
an
investment’s
exposure
to
long-
or
short-term
interest
rates
or
cause
the
value
of
an
investment
to
move
in
the
opposite
direction
from
prevailing
short-term
or
long-term
interest
rates.
For
example,
we
may
use
interest
rate
swaps
to
hedge
or
gain
exposure
to
interest
rate
risk,
or
to
hedge
or
gain
exposure
to
inflation.
We
may
also
use
derivatives
to
adjust
the
Fund’s
positioning
on
the
yield
curve
(a
line
that
plots
interest
rates
of
bonds
having
equal
credit
quality
but
differing
maturity
dates)
or
to
take
tactical
positions
along
the
yield
curve.
However,
we
may
also
choose
not
to
use
derivatives,
based
on
our
evaluation
of
market
conditions
or
the
availability
of
suitable
derivatives.
Investments
in
derivatives
may
be
applied
toward
meeting
a
requirement
to
invest
in
a
particular
kind
of
investment
if
the
derivatives
have
economic
characteristics
similar
to
that
investment.
Derivatives
involve
special
risks
and
may
result
in
losses.
The
successful
use
of
derivatives
depends
on
our
ability
to
manage
these
sophisticated
instruments.
Some
derivatives
are
“leveraged,”
which
means
they
provide
the
Fund
with
investment
exposure
greater
than
the
value
of
the
Fund’s
investment
in
the
derivatives.
As
a
result,
these
derivatives
may
magnify
or
otherwise
increase
investment
losses
to
the
Fund.
The
risk
of
loss
from
certain
short
derivative
positions
is
theoretically
unlimited.
The
value
of
derivatives
may
move
in
unexpected
ways
due
to
unanticipated
market
movements,
the
use
of
leverage,
imperfect
correlation
between
the
derivative
instrument
and
the
reference
asset,
or
other
factors,
especially
in
unusual
market
conditions,
and
volatility
in
the
value
of
derivatives
could
adversely
impact
the
Fund’s
returns,
obligations
and
exposures.
Other
risks
arise
from
the
potential
inability
to
terminate
or
sell
derivative
positions.
Derivatives
may
be
subject
to
liquidity
risk
due
to
the
Fund’s
obligation
to
make
payments
of
margin,
collateral,
or
settlement
payments
to
counterparties.
A
liquid
secondary
market
may
not
always
exist
for
the
Fund’s
derivative
positions.
In
fact,
certain
over-the-counter
instruments
(investments
not
traded
on
an
exchange)
may
not
be
liquid.
Over-the-counter
instruments
also
involve
the
risk
that
the
other
party
to
the
derivative
transaction
may
not
be
willing
or
able
to
meet
its
obligations
with
respect
to
the
derivative
transaction.
The
risk
of
a
party
failing
to
meet
its
obligations
may
increase
if
the
Fund
has
significant
exposure
to
that
counterparty.
Derivative
transactions
may
also
be
subject
to
operational
risk,
including
due
to
documentation
and
settlement
issues,
system
failures,
inadequate
controls
and
human
error,
and
legal
risk
due
to
insufficient
documentation,
insufficient
capacity
or
authority
of
a
counterparty,
or
issues
with
respect
to
the
legality
or
enforceability
of
the
derivative
contract.
•
Preferred
share
leverage
risk.
Leverage
from
the
issuance
of
preferred
shares
creates
risks,
including
the
likelihood
of
greater
volatility
of
net
asset
value
and
market
price
of,
and
distributions
from,
the
Fund’s
common
shares
and
the
risk
that
fluctuations
in
dividend
rates
on
preferred
shares
may
affect
the
return
to
common
shareholders.
If
the
income
from
the
investments
purchased
with
proceeds
received
from
leverage
is
not
sufficient
to
cover
the
cost
of
leverage,
the
amount
of
income
available
for
distribution
to
common
shareholders
will
be
less
than
if
leverage
had
not
been
used.
While
the
Fund
has
preferred
shares
outstanding,
an
increase
in
short-term
interest
rates
could
result
in
an
increased
cost
of
leverage,
which
could
adversely
affect
the
Fund’s
income
available
for
distribution
to
common
shareholders.
In
connection
with
its
preferred
shares,
the
Fund
is
required
to
maintain
specified
asset
coverage
mandated
by
applicable
federal
securities
laws
and
by
the
Fund’s
Amended
and
Restated
Bylaws.
The
Fund
may
be
required
to
dispose
of
portfolio
investments
on
unfavorable
terms
if
market
fluctuations
or
other
factors
cause
the
required
asset
coverage
to
be
less
than
the
prescribed
amount.
There
can
be
no
assurance
that
a
leveraging
strategy
will
be
successful.
•
Liquidity
and
illiquid
investments.
We
may
invest
the
Fund’s
assets
in
illiquid
investments,
which
may
be
considered
speculative
and
which
may
be
difficult
to
sell.
The
sale
of
many
of
these
investments
is
prohibited
or
limited
by
law
or
contract.
Some
investments
may
be
difficult
to
value
for
purposes
of
determining
the
Fund’s
net
asset
value.
Certain
other
investments
may
not
have
an
active
trading
market
due
to
adverse
market,
economic,
industry,
political,
regulatory,
geopolitical,
environmental,
public
health,
and
other
conditions,
including
investors
trying
to
sell
large
quantities
of
a
particular
investment
or
type
of
investment,

We
may
not
be
able
to
sell
the
fund’s
illiquid
investments
when
we
consider
it
desirable
to
do
so,
or
we
may
be
able
to
sell
them
only
at
less
than
their
value.
•
Market
Events
Risk.
The
market
values
of
securities
or
other
assets
will
fluctuate,
sometimes
sharply
and
unpredictably,
due
to
factors
such
as
economic
events,
governmental
actions
or
intervention,
actions
taken
by
the
U.S.
Federal
Reserve
or
foreign
central
banks,
market
disruptions
caused
by
trade
disputes,
labor
strikes
or
other
factors,
political
developments,
armed
conflicts,
economic
sanctions
and
countermeasures
in
response
to
sanctions,
major
cybersecurity
events,
the
global
and
domestic
effects
of
widespread
or
local
health,
weather
or
climate
events,
and
other
factors
that
may
or
may
not
be
related
to
the
issuer
of
the
security
or
other
asset.
Economies
and
financial
markets
throughout
the
world
are
increasingly
interconnected.
Economic,
financial
or
political
events,
trading
and
tariff
arrangements,
public
health
events,
terrorism,
wars,
natural
disasters
and
other
circumstances
in
one
country
or
region
could
have
profound
impacts
on
global
economies
or
markets.
As
a
result,
whether
or
not
the
Fund
invests
in
securities
of
issuers
located
in
or
with
significant
exposure
to
the
countries
or
markets
directly
affected,
the
value
and
liquidity
of
the
Fund’s
investments
may
be
negatively
affected.
The
U.S.
and
other
countries
are
periodically
involved
in
disputes
over
trade
and
other
matters,
which
may
result
in
tariffs,
investment
restrictions
and
adverse
impacts
on
affected
companies
and
securities.
For
example,
the
U.S.
has
recently
enacted
and
proposed
to
enact
significant
new
tariffs,
and
President
Trump
has
directed
various
federal
agencies
to
further
evaluate
key
aspects
of
U.S.
trade
policy,
which
could
potentially
lead
to
significant
changes
to
current
policies,
treaties
and
tariffs.
There
continues
to
exist
significant
uncertainty
about
the
future
relationship
between
the
U.S.
and
other
countries
with
respect
to
such
trade
policies,
treaties
and
tariffs.
These
developments,
or
the
perception
that
any
of
them
could
occur,
may
have
a
material
adverse
effect
on
global
economic
conditions
and
the
stability
of
global
financial
markets,
and
may
significantly
reduce
global
trade
and,
in
particular,
trade
between
the
impacted
nations
and
the
U.S.
Raising
the
ceiling
on
U.S.
government
debt
has
become
increasingly
politicized.
Any
failure
to
increase
the
total
amount
that
the
U.S.
government
is
authorized
to
borrow
could
lead
to
a
default
on
U.S.
government
obligations,
with
unpredictable
consequences
for
economies
and
markets
in
the
U.S.
and
elsewhere.
Recently,
inflation
and
interest
rates
have
increased
and
may
rise
further.
These
circumstances
could
adversely
affect
the
value
and
liquidity
of
the
Fund’s
investments,
impair
the
Fund’s
ability
to
satisfy
redemption
requests,
and
negatively
impact
the
Fund’s
performance.
The
U.S.
and
other
countries
are
periodically
involved
in
disputes
over
trade
and
other
matters,
which
may
result
in
tariffs,
investment
restrictions
and
adverse
impacts
on
affected
companies
and
securities.
For
example,
the
U.S.
has
imposed
tariffs
and
other
trade
barriers
on
Chinese
exports,
has
restricted
sales
of
certain
categories
of
goods
to
China,
and
has
established
barriers
to
investments
in
China.
Trade
disputes
may
adversely
affect
the
economies
of
the
U.S.
and
its
trading
partners,
as
well
as
companies
directly
or
indirectly
affected
and
financial
markets
generally.
The
U.S.
government
has
prohibited
U.S.
persons
from
investing
in
Chinese
companies
designated
as
related
to
the
Chinese
military.
These
and
possible
future
restrictions
could
limit
the
Fund’s
opportunities
for
investment
and
require
the
sale
of
securities
at
a
loss
or
make
them
illiquid.
Moreover,
the
Chinese
government
is
involved
in
a
longstanding
dispute
with
Taiwan
that
has
included
threats
of
invasion.
If
the
political
climate
between
the
U.S.
and
China
does
not
improve
or
continues
to
deteriorate,
if
China
were
to
attempt
unification
of
Taiwan
by
force,
or
if
other
geopolitical
conflicts
develop
or
get
worse,
economies,
markets
and
individual
securities
may
be
severely
affected
both
regionally
and
globally,
and
the
value
of
the
Fund’s
assets
may
go
down.
•
Management
and
operational
risk.
The
Fund
is
actively
managed
and
its
performance
will
reflect,
in
part,
our
ability
to
make
investment
decisions
that
seek
to
achieve
the
Fund’s
investment
objective.
There
is
no
guarantee
that
the
investment
techniques,
analyses,
or
judgments
that
we
apply
in
making
investment
decisions
for
the
Fund
will
produce
the
intended
outcome
or
that
the
investments
we
select
for
the
Fund
will
perform
as
well
as
other
securities
that
were
not
selected
for
the
Fund.
As
a
result,
the
Fund
may
underperform
its
benchmark
or
other
funds
with
a
similar
investment
goal
and
may
realize
losses.
In
addition,
we,
or
the
fund’s
other
service
providers,
may
experience
disruptions
or
operating
errors
that
could
negatively
impact
the
Fund.
Although
service
providers
may
have
operational
risk
management
policies
and
procedures
and
take
appropriate
precautions
to
avoid
and
mitigate
risks
that
could
lead
to
disruptions
and
operating
errors,
it
may
not
be

possible
to

all
of
the
operational

that
may
affect
the
Fund
or

develop
processes
and
controls
to
completely
eliminate
or
mitigate
their
occurrence
or
effects.
•
Managed
Distribution
Risk.
Under
a
managed
distribution
policy,
the
Fund
would
intend
to
make
monthly
distributions
to
shareholders
at
a
fixed
rate
per
common
share
or
a
fixed
percentage
of
net
asset
value
that
may
include
periodic
distributions
of
long-term
capital
gains.
Under
a
managed
distribution
policy,
if,
for
any
monthly
distribution,
ordinary
income
(that
is,
net
investment
income
and
any
net
short-
term
capital
gain)
and
net
realized
capital
gains
were
less
than
the
amount
of
the
distribution,
the
difference
would
be
distributed
from
the
Fund’s
previously
accumulated
earnings
and
profits
or
cash
generated
from
the
sale
of
Fund
assets.
If,
for
any
fiscal
year,
the
total
distributions
exceeded
ordinary
income
and
net
realized
capital
gains
(the
“Excess”),
the
Excess
would
represent
a
return
of
capital
that
decreases
the
Fund’s
total
assets
and,
as
a
result,
would
have
the
likely
effect
of
increasing
the
Fund’s
expense
ratio.
The
Excess,
if
any,
as
a
return
of
capital
should
not
be
considered
income
or
a
return
on
investment.
There
is
a
risk
that
the
Fund
would
not
eventually
realize
capital
gains
in
an
amount
corresponding
to
a
distribution
of
the
Excess.
In
addition,
in
order
to
make
such
distributions,
the
Fund
may
have
to
sell
a
portion
of
its
investment
portfolio
at
a
time
when
independent
investment
judgment
might
not
dictate
such
action.
Although
the
Fund
does
not
intend
to
issue
senior
securities,
if
the
Fund
were
to
issue
senior
securities
and
not
be
in
compliance
with
the
asset
coverage
requirements
of
the
1940
Act,
the
Fund
would
be
required
to
suspend
the
managed
distribution
policy.
Pursuant
to
the
requirements
of
the
1940
Act
and
other
applicable
laws,
a
notice
will
accompany
each
monthly
distribution
disclosing
the
sources
of
the
distribution.
•
Other
investments.
In
addition
to
the
main
investment
strategies
described
above,
the
Fund
may
also
make
other
types
of
investments,
which
may
produce
taxable
income
and
be
subject
to
other
risks.
The
Fund
may
also
invest
in
cash
or
cash
equivalents,
including
money
market
instruments
or
short-term
instruments
such
as
commercial
paper,
bank
obligations
(e.g.,
certificates
of
deposit
and
bankers’
acceptances),
repurchase
agreements,
and
U.S.
Treasury
bills
or
other
government
obligations.
The
Fund
may
also
from
time
to
time
invest
all
or
a
portion
of
its
cash
balances
in
money
market
and/or
short-term
bond
funds
advised
by
Putnam
Management
or
its
affiliates.
The
percentage
of
the
fund
invested
in
cash
and
cash
equivalents
and
such
money
market
and
short-term
bond
funds
is
expected
to
vary
over
time
and
will
depend
on
various
factors,
including
market
conditions,
and
our
assessment
of
the
cash
level
that
is
appropriate
to
allow
the
Fund
to
pursue
investment
opportunities
as
they
arise.
Large
cash
positions
may
dampen
performance
and
may
prevent
the
Fund
from
achieving
its
goal.
The
Fund
may
also
invest
in
securities
of
other
investment
companies
to
the
extent
that
these
investments
are
consistent
with
the
Fund’s
investment
objective,
strategies
and
policies
and
permissible
under
the
1940
Act.
The
Fund
may
also
invest
in
securities
of
private
funds
that
rely
on
exceptions
from
the
definition
of
investment
company
under
Sections
3(c)
(1)
or
3(c)(7)
of
the
1940
Act,
structured

or
other
entities
not

from
the
definition
of
investment
company
under
Section
3(c)(5)
(A)
or
(B)
of
the
1940
Act.
The
Fund
may
invest
in
portfolio
affiliates
of
the
Fund
within
the
meaning
of,
and
in
reliance
on,
Rules
17a-6
and
17d-1(d)(5)
under
the
1940
Act.
The
Fund
may
invest
in
other
investment
companies
to
gain
broad
market
or
sector
exposure,
including
during
periods
when
it
has
large
amounts
of
uninvested
cash
or
when
the
investment
manager
believes
that
share
prices
of
other
investment
companies
offer
attractive
values.
In
general,
under
the
1940
Act,
an
investment
company
may
not
(i)
own
more
than
3%
of
the
outstanding
voting
securities
of
any
one
registered
investment
company,
(ii)
invest
more
than
5%
of
its
total
assets
in
the
securities
of
any
single
registered
investment
company
or
(iii)
invest
more
than
10%
of
its
total
assets
in
securities
of
other
registered
investment
companies
(the
“3-5-10%
Limitations”).
The
Fund
may
rely
on
certain
exemptions
to
exceed
the
3-5-10%
Limitations
when
investing
in
another
registered
investment
company
(including
money
market
funds)
or
business
development
company.
To
the
extent
that
the
Fund
invests
in
another
investment
company,
because
other
investment
companies
pay
advisory,
administrative
and
service
fees
that
are
borne
indirectly
by
investors,
such
as
the
Fund,
there
may
be
duplication
of
investment
management
and
other
fees.
•
Temporary
defensive
strategies.
In
response
to
adverse
market,
economic,
political
or
other
conditions,
we
may
take
temporary
defensive
positions,
such
as
investing
some
or
all
of
the
Fund’s
assets
in
cash
and
cash
equivalents,
that
differ
from
the
Fund’s
usual
investment
strategies.
However,
we
may
choose
not
to
use
these
temporary
defensive
strategies
for
a
variety
of
reasons,
even
in
very
volatile
market
conditions.
If
we
do
employ
these
strategies,
the
Fund
may
PUTNAM

miss
out
on

opportunities
and
may

Additionally,
while
temporary
defensive
strategies
are
mainly
designed
to
limit
losses,
they
may
not
work
as
intended.
•
Cybersecurity
Risk.
Like
other
funds
and
business
enterprises,
the
Fund,
the
Manager,
the
Sub-Advisers,
the
relevant
listing
exchange
and
their
service
providers
are
subject
to
the
risk
of
cybersecurity
incidents
occurring
from
time
to
time.
Cybersecurity
incidents,
whether
intentionally
caused
by
third
parties
or
otherwise,
may
allow
an
unauthorized
party
to
gain
access
to
Fund
assets,
Fund
or
customer
data
(including
private
shareholder
information)
or
proprietary
information,
cause
the
Fund,
the
Manager,
the
Sub-Advisers,
the
relevant
listing
exchange
and/or
their
service
providers
(including,
but
not
limited
to,
Fund
accountants,
custodians,
sub-custodians,
transfer
agents
and
financial
intermediaries)
to
suffer
data
breaches,
data
corruption
or
loss
of
operational
functionality,
or
prevent
Fund
investors
from
purchasing,
redeeming
or
exchanging
shares,
receiving
distributions
or
receiving
timely
information
regarding
the
Fund
or
their
investment
in
the
Fund.
The
Fund,
the
Manager
and
the
Sub-Advisers
have
limited
ability
to
prevent
or
mitigate
cybersecurity
incidents
affecting
third
party
service
providers,
and
such
third-party
service
providers
may
have
limited
indemnification
obligations
to
the
Fund
or
the
Manager.
Cybersecurity
incidents
may
result
in
financial
losses
to
the
Fund
and
its
shareholders,
and
substantial
costs
may
be
incurred
in
order
to
prevent
any
future
cybersecurity
incidents.
Issuers
of
securities
in
which
the
Fund
invests
are
also
subject
to
cybersecurity
risks,
and
the
value
of
these
securities
could
decline
if
the
issuers
experience
cybersecurity
incidents.
•
Changes
in
policies.
The
Trustees
may
change
the
Fund’s
goal,
investment
strategies
and
other
policies
without
shareholder
approval,
except
in
circumstances
in
which
shareholder
approval
is
specifically
required
by
law
(such
as
changes
to
fundamental
investment
policies)
or
where
a
shareholder
approval
requirement
was
specifically
disclosed
in
the
Fund’s
prospectus,
statement
of
additional
information
or
shareholder
report
and
is
otherwise
still
in
effect.
The
Fund’s
fundamental
investment
policies
The
Fund
has
adopted
the
following
investment
restrictions
which
may
not
be
changed
without
the
affirmative
vote
of
a
“majority
of
the
outstanding

of
the
Fund
(which
is
defined
in
the
1940
Act)
to
mean

Intermediate
Income
Trust,
Putnam
Municipal
Opportunities
Trust
and
Putnam
Premier
Income
Trust
(each,
a
“Fund”
and
collectively,
the
“Funds”)
each
offer
a
dividend
reinvestment
plan
(each,
a
“Plan”
and
collectively,
the
“Plans”).
If
you
participate
in
a
Plan,
all
income
dividends
and
capital
gain
distributions
are
automatically
reinvested
in
Fund
shares
by
the
Fund’s
agent,
Computershare
Trust
Company,
N.A.
(the
“Agent”).
If
you
are
not
participating
in
a
Plan,
every
month
you
will
receive
all
dividends
and
other
distributions
in
cash,
paid
by
check
and
mailed
directly
to
you
or
your
intermediary.
Upon
a
purchase
(or,
where
applicable,
upon
registration
of
transfer
on
the
shareholder
records
of
a
Fund)
of
shares
of
a
Fund
by
a
registered
shareholder,
each
such
shareholder
will
be
deemed
to
have
elected
to
participate
in
that
Fund’s
Plan.
Each
such
shareholder
will
have
all
distributions
by
a
Fund
automatically
reinvested
in
additional
shares,
unless
such
shareholder
elects
to
terminate
participation
in
a
Plan
by
instructing
the
Agent
to
pay
future
distributions
in
cash.
Shareholders
who
were
not
participants
in
a
Plan
as
of
January
31,
2010,
will
continue
to
receive
distributions
in
cash
but
may
enroll
in
a
Plan
at
any
time
by
contacting
the
Agent.
If
you
participate
in
a
Fund’s
Plan,
the
Agent
will
automatically
reinvest
subsequent
distributions,
and
the
Agent
will
send
you
a
confirmation
in
the
mail
telling
you
how
many
additional
shares
were
issued
to
your
account.
To
change
your
enrollment
status
or
to
request
additional
information
about
the
Plans,
you
may
contact
the
Agent
in
writing
at
P.O.
Box
43006
Providence,
RI
02940-3078
or
by
calling
the
Agent
at
1-888-888-0151.
How
you
acquire
additional
shares
through
a
Plan
If
the
market
price
per
share
for
your
Fund’s
shares
(plus
estimated
brokerage
commissions)
is
greater
than
or
equal
to
their
net
asset
value
per
share
on
the
payment
date
for
a
distribution,
you
will
be
issued
shares
of
the
Fund
at
a
value
equal
to
the
higher
of
the
net
asset
value
per
share
on
that
date
or
95%
of
the
market
price
per
share
on
that
date.
If
the
market
price
per
share
for
your
Fund’s
shares
(plus
estimated
brokerage
commissions)
is
less
than
their
net
asset
value
per
share
on
the
payment
date
for
a
distribution,
the
Agent
will
buy
Fund
shares
for
participating
accounts
in
the
open
market.
The
Agent
will
aggregate
open-market
purchases
on
behalf
of
all
participants,
and
the
average
price
(including
brokerage
commissions)
of
all
shares
purchased
by
the
Agent
will
be
the
price
per
share
allocable
to
each
participant.
The
Agent
will
generally
complete
these
open-market
purchases
within
five
business
days
following
the
payment
date.
If,
before
the
Agent
has
completed
open-market
purchases,
the
market
price
per
share
(plus
estimated
brokerage
commissions)
rises
to
exceed
the
net
asset
value
per
share
on
the
payment
date,
then
the
purchase
price
may
exceed
the
net
asset
value
per
share,
potentially
resulting
in
the
acquisition
of
fewer
shares
than
if
the
distribution
had
been
paid
in
newly
issued
shares.
How
to
withdraw
from
a
Plan
Participants
may
withdraw
from
a
Fund’s
Plan
at
any
time
by
notifying
the
Agent,
either
in
writing
or
by
telephone.
Such
withdrawal
will
be
effective
immediately
if
notice
is
received
by
the
Agent
with
sufficient
time
prior
to
any
distribution
record
date;
otherwise,
such
withdrawal
will
be
effective
with
respect
to
any
subsequent
distribution
following
notice
of
withdrawal.
There
is
no
penalty
for
withdrawing
from
or
not
participating
in
a
Plan.
Plan
administration
The
Agent
will
credit
all
shares
acquired
for
a
participant
under
a
Plan
to
the
account
in
which
the
participant’s
common
shares
are
held.
Each
participant
will
be
sent
reasonably
promptly
a
confirmation
by
the
Agent
of
each
acquisition
made
for
his
or
her
account.
About
brokerage
fees
Each
participant
pays
a
proportionate
share
of
any
brokerage
commissions
incurred
if
the
Agent
purchases
additional
shares
on
the
open
market,
in
accordance
with
the
Plans.
There
are
no
brokerage
charges
applied
to
shares
issued
directly
by
the
Funds
under
the
Plans.

(unaudited)
About
taxes
and
Plan
amendments
Reinvesting
dividend
and
capital
gain
distributions
in
shares
of
the
Funds
does
not
relieve
you
of
tax
obligations,
which
are
the
same
as
if
you
had
received
cash
distributions.
The
Agent
supplies
tax
information
to
you
and
to
the
IRS
annually.
Each
Fund
reserves
the
right
to
amend
or
terminate
its
Plan
upon
30
days’
written
notice.
However,
the
Agent
may
assign
its
rights,
and
delegate
its
duties,
to
a
successor
agent
with
the
prior
consent
of
a
Fund
and
without
prior
notice
to
Plan
participants.
If
your
shares
are
held
in
a
broker
or
nominee
name
If
your
shares
are
held
in
the
name
of
a
broker
or
nominee
offering
a
dividend
reinvestment
service,
consult
your
broker
or
nominee
to
ensure
that
an
appropriate
election
is
made
on
your
behalf.
If
the
broker
or
nominee
holding
your
shares
does
not
provide
a
reinvestment
service,
you
may
need
to
register
your
shares
in
your
own
name
in
order
to
participate
in
a
Plan.
In
the
case
of
record
shareholders
such
as
banks,
brokers
or
nominees
that
hold
shares
for
others
who
are
the
beneficial
owners
of
such
shares,
the
Agent
will
administer
the
Plan
on
the
basis
of
the
number
of
shares
certified
by
the
record
shareholder
as
representing
the
total
amount
registered
in
such
shareholder’s
name
and
held
for
the
account
of
beneficial
owners
who
are
to
participate
in
the
Plan.

(PMM)
Background
The
Investment
Company
Act
of
1940,
as
amended
(the
“1940
Act”),
requires
that
the
Board
of
Trustees
(the
“Board”)
of
Putnam
Managed
Municipal
Income
Trust
(the
“Fund”),
including
a
majority
of
its
members
who
are
not
considered
to
be
“interested
persons”
under
the
1940
Act
(the
“Independent
Trustees”)
voting
separately,
approve
on
an
annual
basis
the
continuation
of
the
investment
management
agreement
(the
“Management
Agreement”)
between
the
Fund
and
the
Fund’s
manager,
Franklin
Advisers,
Inc.
(the
“Manager”),
and
the
sub-advisory
agreements
(individually,
a
“Sub-Advisory
Agreement,”
and
collectively,
the
“Sub-
Advisory
Agreements”)
with
the
Manager’s
affiliates,
Franklin
Templeton
Investment
Management
Limited
(“FTIML”)
and
Putnam
Investment
Management,
LLC
(“PIM,”
and
together
with
FTIML,
the
“Sub-Advisers”),
with
respect
to
the
Fund.
At
an
in-person
meeting
(the
“Contract
Renewal
Meeting”)
held
on
May
8-9,
2025,
the
Board,
including
the
Independent
Trustees,
considered
and
approved
the
continuation
of
each
of
the
Management
Agreement
and
the
Sub-Advisory
Agreements
for
an
additional
one-year
period.
To
assist
in
its
consideration
of
the
renewal
of
each
of
the
Management
Agreement
and
the
Sub-Advisory
Agreements,
the
Board
received
and
considered
extensive
information
(together
with
the
information
provided
at
the
Contract
Renewal
Meeting,
the
“Contract
Renewal
Information”)
about
the
Manager
and
the
Sub-Advisers,
as
well
as
the
management
and
sub-
advisory
arrangements
for
the
Fund
and
the
other
closed-
end
funds
in
the
same
complex
under
the
Board’s
purview
(the
“Franklin
Templeton
Closed-end
Funds”),
certain
portions
of
which
are
discussed
below.
The
Board
noted
that
although
it
recently
assumed
oversight
responsibilities
for
the
Fund,
which
was
previously
overseen
by
another
board,
certain
information
the
Board
received
throughout
the
course
of
the
year
with
respect
to
the
Franklin
Templeton
Closed-
end
Funds
was
relevant
to
the
Board’s
consideration
of
the
Management
Agreement
and
Sub-Advisory
Agreements.
A
presentation
made
by
the
Manager
and
the
Sub-Advisers
to
the
Board
at
the
Contract
Renewal
Meeting
in
connection
with
the
Board’s
evaluation
of
each
of
the
Management
Agreement
and
the
Sub-Advisory
Agreements
encompassed
the
Fund
and
other
Franklin
Templeton
Closed-end
Funds.
In
addition
to
the
Contract
Renewal
Information,
the
Board
received
performance
and
other
information
related
to
the
respective
services
rendered
by
the
Manager
and
the
Sub-Advisers
to
the
Fund.
The
Board’s
evaluation
took
into
account
the
information
received
and
also
reflected
the
knowledge
and
experience
gained
as
members
of
the
Boards
of
the
other
Franklin
Templeton
Closed-end
Funds
with
respect
to
the
services
provided
to
the
Fund
by
the
Manager
and
the
Sub-Advisers.
The
information
received
and
considered
by
the
Board
(including
its
various
committees)
in
conjunction
with
both
the
Contract
Renewal
Meeting
and
throughout
the
year
was
both
written
and
oral.
The
contractual
arrangements
discussed
below
are
the
product
of
multiple
years
of
review
and
negotiation
and
information
with
respect
to
the
other
Franklin
Templeton
Closed-end
Funds
received
and
considered
by
the
Board
during
each
of
those
years.
At
a
meeting
held
on
April
25,
2025,
the
Independent
Trustees,
in
preparation
for
the
Contract
Renewal
Meeting,
met
in
a
private
session
with
their
independent
legal
counsel
to
review
the
Contract
Renewal
Information
regarding
the
Franklin
Templeton
Closed-end
Funds,
including
the
Fund,
received
to
date.
No
representatives
of
the
Manager
or
the
Sub-Advisers
participated
in
this
meeting.
Following
the
April
25,
2025
meeting,
the
Independent
Trustees
submitted
certain
questions
and
requests
for
additional
information
to
Fund
management.
The
Independent
Trustees
also
met
in
private
sessions
with
their
independent
legal
counsel
to
consider
the
Contract
Renewal
Information
and
Fund
management’s
responses
to
the
Independent
Trustees’
questions
and
requests
for
additional
information
in
advance
of
and
during
the
Contract
Renewal
Meeting.
The
discussion
below
reflects
all
of
these
reviews.
The
Manager
provides
the
Fund
with
investment
advisory
and
administrative
services
pursuant
to
the
Management
Agreement,
and
the
Sub-Advisers
together
provide
the
Fund
with
investment
sub-advisory
services
pursuant
to
the
Sub-
Advisory
Agreements.
The
discussion
below
covers
both
the
advisory
and
administrative
functions
being
rendered
by
the
Manager,
each
such
function
being
encompassed
by
the
Management
Agreement,
and
the
investment
sub-advisory
functions
being
rendered
by
the
Sub-Advisers
pursuant
to
the
Sub-Advisory
Agreements.

Shareholder

(unaudited)
Board
Approval
of
Management
Agreement
and
Sub-
Advisory
Agreements
The
Independent
Trustees
were
advised
by
separate
independent
legal
counsel
throughout
the
process.
Prior
to
voting,
the
Independent
Trustees
received
a
memorandum
discussing
the
legal
standards
for
their
consideration
of
the
proposed
continuation
of
the
Management
Agreement
and
the
Sub-Advisory
Agreements.
The
Independent
Trustees
considered
the
Management
Agreement
and
each
Sub-
Advisory
Agreement
separately
during
the
course
of
their
review.
In
doing
so,
they
noted
the
respective
roles
of
the
Manager
and
the
Sub-Advisers
in
providing
services
to
the
Fund.
In
approving
the
continuation
of
the
Management
Agreement
and
Sub-Advisory
Agreements,
the
Board,
including
the
Independent
Trustees,
considered
a
variety
of
factors,
including
those
factors
discussed
below.
No
single
factor
reviewed
by
the
Board
was
identified
by
the
Board
as
the
principal
factor
in
determining
whether
to
approve
the
continuation
of
the
Management
Agreement
and
the
Sub-
Advisory
Agreements.
Each
Board
member
may
have
attributed
different
weight
to
the
various
factors
in
evaluating
the
Management
Agreement
and
the
Sub-Advisory
Agreements.
After
considering
all
relevant
factors
and
information,
the
Board,
exercising
its
reasonable
business
judgment,
determined
that
the
continuation
of
the
Management
Agreement
and
Sub-Advisory
Agreements
were
in
the
best
interests
of
the
Fund’s
stockholders
and
approved
the
continuation
of
each
such
agreement
for
an
additional
one-
year
period.
Nature,
Extent
and
Quality
of
the
Services
under
the
Management
Agreement
and
Sub-Advisory
Agreements
The
Board
received
and
considered
Contract
Renewal
Information
regarding
the
nature,
extent,
and
quality
of
services
provided
to
the
Fund
by
the
Manager
and
the
Sub-Advisers
under
the
Management
Agreement
and
the
Sub-Advisory
Agreements,
respectively,
during
the
past
year.
The
Board
noted
information
received
at
regular
meetings
throughout
the
year
related
to
the
services
provided
by
the
Manager
in
its
management
of
the
Fund’s
affairs
and
the
Manager’s
role
in
coordinating
the
activities
of
the
Sub-Advisers
and
the
Fund’s
other
service
providers.
The
Board
observed
that
the
scope
of
services
provided
by
the
Manager
and
the
Sub-Advisers,
and
of
the
undertakings
required
of
the
Manager
and
Sub-Advisers
in
connection
with
those
services,
including
maintaining
and
monitoring
their
respective
compliance
programs
as
well
as
the
Fund’s
compliance
programs,
had
expanded
over
time
as
a
result
of
regulatory,
market
and
other
developments.
The
Board
also
noted
that
on
a
regular
basis
it
received
and
reviewed
information
from
the
Manager
and
the
Sub-Advisers
regarding
the
Fund’s
compliance
policies
and
procedures
established
pursuant
to
Rule
38a-1
under
the
1940
Act.
The
Board
also
considered
the
risks
borne
by
the
Manager,
the
Sub-Advisers
and
their
respective
affiliates
on
behalf
of
the
Fund,
including
entrepreneurial,
operational,
reputational,
litigation
and
regulatory
risks,
as
well
as
the
Manager’s
and
the
Sub-Advisers’
risk
management
processes.
The
Board
reviewed
the
qualifications,
backgrounds,
and
responsibilities
of
the
Manager’s
senior
personnel
and
the
Sub-Advisers’
portfolio
management
teams
primarily
responsible
for
the
day-to-day
portfolio
management
of
the
Fund.
The
Board
also
considered,
based
on
its
knowledge
of
the
Manager
and
its
affiliates,
the
financial
resources
of
Franklin
Resources,
Inc.,
the
parent
organization
of
the
Manager
and
the
Sub-Advisers.
The
Board
recognized
the
importance
of
having
a
fund
manager
with
significant
resources.
The
Board
considered
the
division
of
responsibilities
between
the
Manager
and
the
Sub-Advisers
under
the
Management
Agreement
and
the
Sub-Advisory
Agreements,
respectively,
including
the
Manager’s
coordination
and
oversight
of
the
services
provided
to
the
Fund
by
the
Sub-Advisers
and
the
Fund’s
other
service
providers.
The
Management
Agreement
permits
the
Manager
to
delegate
certain
of
its
responsibilities,
including
its
investment
advisory
duties
thereunder,
provided
that
the
Manager,
in
each
case,
will
supervise
the
activities
of
the
delegee.
In
reaching
its
determinations
regarding
continuation
of
the
Management
Agreement
and
the
Sub-Advisory
Agreements,
the
Board
took
into
account
that
Fund
stockholders,
in
pursuing
their
investment
goals
and
objectives,
may
have
purchased
their
shares
of
the
Fund
based
upon
the
reputation
and
the
investment
style,
philosophy
and
strategy
of
the
Manager
and
the
Sub-Advisers,
as
well
as
the
resources
available
to
the
Manager
and
the
Sub-Advisers.
The
Board
concluded
that,
overall,
the
nature,
extent,
and
quality
of
the
management
and
other
services
provided
(and
expected
to
be
provided)
to
the
Fund,
under
the
Management
Agreement
and
the
Sub-Advisory
Agreements
were
satisfactory.
Fund
Performance
The
Board
received
and
considered
information
regarding
Fund
performance,
including
information
and
analyses
(the
“Broadridge
Performance
Information”)
for
the
Fund,
as
well
as
for
a
group
of
comparable
funds
(the
“Performance
Universe”)
selected
by
Broadridge
Financial

MUNICIPAL

Shareholder
Information
(unaudited)
Inc.
(“Broadridge”),
an
independent
third-party
provider
of
investment
company
data.
The
Board
was
provided
with
a
description
of
the
methodology
Broadridge
used
to
determine
the
similarity
of
the
Fund
with
the
funds
included
in
the
Performance
Universe.
It
was
noted
that
while
the
Board
found
the
Broadridge
Performance
Information
generally
useful,
they
recognized
its
limitations,
including
that
the
data
may
vary
depending
on
the
end
date
selected,
and
that
the
results
of
the
performance
comparisons
may
vary
depending
on
the
selection
of
the
peer
group
and
its
composition
over
time.
The
Board
also
noted
that
Board
members
had
received
and
discussed
with
the
Manager
and
the
Sub-Advisers
information
throughout
the
year
at
periodic
intervals
comparing
the
Fund’s
performance
against
its
benchmark
and
against
the
Fund’s
peers.
In
addition,
the
Board
considered
the
Fund’s
performance
in
view
of
overall
financial
market
conditions.
The
Broadridge
Performance
Information
comparing
the
Fund’s
performance
to
that
of
its
Performance
Universe,
consisting
of
the
Fund
and
all
leveraged
closed-end
high
yield
municipal
debt
bond
funds,
regardless
of
asset
size,
showed,
among
other
data,
that
based
on
net
asset
value
per
share,
the
Fund’s
performance
was
below
the
median
for
the
1-year
period
ended
December
31,
2024,
and
was
above
the
median
for
the
3-,
5-
and
10-year
periods
ended
December
31,
2024.
The
Board
noted
the
explanations
from
the
Manager
and
the
Sub-Advisers
regarding
the
Fund’s
relative
performance
versus
the
Performance
Universe
for
the
various
periods.
Based
on
the
reviews
and
discussions
of
Fund
performance
and
considering
other
relevant
factors,
including
those
noted
above,
the
Board
concluded,
under
the
circumstances,
that
continuation
of
the
Management
Agreement
and
the
Sub-Advisory
Agreements
for
an
additional
one-year
period
would
be
consistent
with
the
interests
of
the
Fund
and
its
stockholders.
Management
and
Sub-Advisory
Fees
and
Expense
Ratios
The
Board
reviewed
and
considered
the
contractual
management
fee
(the
“Contractual
Management
Fee”)
and
the
actual
management
fee
(the
“Actual
Management
Fee”)
payable
by
the
Fund
to
the
Manager
under
the
Management
Agreement
and
the
sub-advisory
fees
(the
“Sub-Advisory
Fees”)
payable
by
the
Manager
to
the
Sub-Advisers
under
the
Sub-Advisory
Agreements
in
view
of
the
nature,
extent
and
overall
quality
of
the
management,
investment
advisory
and
other
services
provided
by
the
Manager
and
the
Sub-Advisers,
respectively.
The
Board
noted
that
the
Sub-Advisory
Fee
payable
to
the
Sub-Advisers
under
their
Sub-Advisory
Agreements
with
the
Manager
is
paid
by
the
Manager,
not
the
Fund,
and,
accordingly,
that
the
retention
of
the
Sub-Advisers
does
not
increase
the
fees
or
expenses
otherwise
incurred
by
the
Fund’s
stockholders.
In
addition,
the
Board
received
and
considered
information
and
analyses
prepared
by
Broadridge
(the
“Broadridge
Expense
Information”)
comparing
the
Contractual
Management
Fee
and
the
Actual
Management
Fee
and
the
Fund’s
actual
total
expenses
with
those
of
funds
in
an
expense
universe
(the
“Expense
Universe”)
selected
and
provided
by
Broadridge.
The
comparison
was
based
upon
the
constituent
funds’
latest
fiscal
years.
It
was
noted
that
while
the
Board
found
the
Broadridge
Expense
Information
generally
useful,
they
recognized
its
limitations,
including
that
the
data
may
vary
depending
on
the
selection
of
the
peer
group.
The
Broadridge
Expense
Information
showed
that
the
Fund’s
Contractual
Management
Fee
was
equal
to
the
median.
The
Broadridge
Expense
Information
also
showed
that
the
Fund’s
Actual
Management
Fee
was
below
the
median
based
on
both
common
stock
assets
and
total
managed
assets,
which
includes
common
stock
assets
and
leveraged
assets.
The
Broadridge
Expense
Information
also
showed
that
the
Fund’s
actual
total
expenses
were
below
the
median
based
on
both
common
stock
assets
and
total
managed
assets.
The
Board
took
into
account
management’s
discussion
of
the
Fund’s
expenses.
The
Board
also
reviewed
Contract
Renewal
Information
regarding
fees
charged
by
the
Manager
and/or
the
Sub-
Advisers
to
other
U.S.
clients
investing
primarily
in
an
asset
class
similar
to
that
of
the
Fund,
including,
where
applicable,
institutional
and
separate
accounts.
The
Manager
reviewed
with
the
Board
the
differences
in
services
provided
to
these
different
types
of
accounts,
noting
that
the
Fund
is
provided
with
certain
administrative
services,
office
facilities,
and
Fund
officers,
and
that
the
Fund
is
subject
not
only
to
heightened
regulatory
requirements
relative
to
institutional
clients
but
also
to
requirements
for
listing
on
the
New
York
Stock
Exchange,
and
that
the
Manager
coordinates
and
oversees
the
provision
of
services
to
the
Fund
by
the
Fund’s
other
service
providers.
The
Board
considered
the
fee
comparisons
in
view
of
the
different
services
provided
in
managing
these
other
types
of
clients
and
funds.
The
Board
considered
the
overall
management
fee,
the
fees
of
the
Sub-Advisers
and
the
amount
of
the
management
fee
retained
by
the
Manager
after
payment
of
the
Sub-Advisory
Fees
in
each
case
in
view
of
the
services
rendered
for
those
PUTNAM
MANAGED
MUNICIPAL
INCOME
TRUST
Shareholder
Information
(unaudited)
amounts.
The
Board
also
received
an
analysis
of
complex-
wide
management
fees
provided
by
the
Manager,
which,
among
other
things,
set
out
a
framework
of
fees
based
on
asset
classes.
Taking
all
of
the
above
into
consideration,
as
well
as
the
factors
identified
below,
the
Board
determined
that
the
management
fee
and
the
Sub-Advisory
Fees
were
reasonable
in
view
of
the
nature,
extent
and
overall
quality
of
the
management,
investment
advisory
and
other
services
provided
by
the
Manager
and
the
Sub-Advisers
to
the
Fund
under
the
Management
Agreement
and
the
Sub-Advisory
Agreements,
respectively.
Manager
Profitability
The
Board,
as
part
of
the
Contract
Renewal
Information,
received
an
analysis
of
the
profitability
to
the
Manager
and
its
affiliates
in
providing
services
to
the
Fund
for
the
Manager’s
fiscal
years
ended
September
30,
2024
and
September
30,
2023.
The
Board
also
received
profitability
information
with
respect
to
the
Franklin
Templeton
fund
complex
as
a
whole.
In
addition,
the
Board
received
Contract
Renewal
Information
with
respect
to
the
Manager’s
revenue
and
cost
allocation
methodologies
used
in
preparing
such
profitability
data.
It
was
noted
that
the
allocation
methodologies
had
been
reviewed
by
an
outside
consultant.
The
profitability
to
each
of
the
Sub-Advisers
was
not
considered
to
be
a
material
factor
in
the
Board’s
considerations
since
the
Sub-Advisory
Fees
are
paid
by
the
Manager,
not
the
Fund,
although
the
Board
noted
the
affiliation
of
the
Manager
with
the
Sub-Advisers.
The
profitability
of
the
Manager
and
its
affiliates
was
considered
by
the
Board
to
be
reasonable
in
view
of
the
nature,
extent
and
quality
of
services
provided
to
the
Fund.
Economies
of
Scale
The
Board
received
and
discussed
Contract
Renewal
Information
concerning
whether
the
Manager
realizes
economies
of
scale
if
the
Fund’s
assets
grow.
The
Board
noted
that
because
the
Fund
is
a
closed-end
fund,
it
has
limited
ability
to
increase
its
assets.
The
Board
determined
that
the
management
fee
structure
was
appropriate
under
the
circumstances.
For
similar
reasons
as
stated
above
with
respect
to
the
Sub-Advisers’
profitability
and
the
costs
of
the
Sub-Advisers’
provision
of
services,
the
Board
did
not
consider
the
potential
for
economies
of
scale
in
the
Sub-
Advisers’
management
of
the
Fund
to
be
a
material
factor
in
the
Board’s
consideration
of
the
Sub-Advisory
Agreements.
Other
Benefits
to
the
Manager
and
the
Sub-Advisers
The
Board
considered
other
benefits
received
by
the
Manager,
the
Sub-Advisers
and
their
affiliates
as
a
result
of
their
relationship
with
the
Fund,
including
the
opportunity
to
offer
additional
products
and
services
to
the
Fund’s
stockholders.
In
view
of
the
costs
of
providing
investment
management
and
other
services
to
the
Fund
and
the
ongoing
commitment
of
the
Manager
and
the
Sub-Advisers
to
the
Fund,
the
Board
considered
that
the
ancillary
benefits
received
by
the
Manager
and
its
affiliates,
including
the
Sub-
Advisers,
were
reasonable.

services to be provided to the Fund and (b) all permissible non-audit services to be provided by the Fund’s independent auditors
to the Adviser and any service providers controlling, controlled by or under common control with the Adviser that provide ongoing services
to the Fund (“Covered Service Providers”) if the engagement relates directly to the operations and financial reporting of
the Fund. The Committee may implement policies and procedures by which such services are approved other than by the full Committee.
The Committee shall not approve non-audit services that the
Committee believes may impair the independence of the auditors. As of the date of the approval of this Audit Committee Charter, permissible
non-audit services include any professional services (including tax services), that are not prohibited services as described below, provided
to the Fund by the independent auditors, other than those provided to the Fund in connection with an audit or a review of the financial
statements of the Fund. Permissible non-audit services may not include: (i) bookkeeping or other services related to the accounting records

controlled by or under common control with the Adviser that provides ongoing services to the Fund during the fiscal year in which the
services are provided that would have to be approved by the Committee; (ii) the permissible non-audit services were not recognized by
the Fund at the time of the engagement to be non-audit services; and (iii) such services are promptly brought to the attention of the
Committee and approved by the Committee (or its delegate(s)) prior to the completion of the audit.

2025.
(h) Yes. The Registrant’s Audit Committee has considered
whether the provision of non-audit services that were rendered to Service Affiliates, which were not pre-approved (not requiring pre-approval),
is compatible with maintaining the Auditor's independence. All services provided by the Auditor to the Registrant or to the Service Affiliates,

Putnam Investments
Proxy Voting Procedures
Introduction and Summary
Many of Putnam’s investment management clients have
delegated to Putnam the authority to vote proxies for shares in the client accounts Putnam manages. Putnam believes that the voting of
proxies can be an important tool for institutional investors to promote best practices in corporate governance and votes all proxies in
the best interests of its clients as investors. In Putnam’s view, strong corporate governance policies, most notably oversight by
an independent board of qualified directors, best serve investors’ interests. Putnam will vote proxies and maintain records of voting
of shares for which Putnam has proxy voting authority in accordance with its fiduciary obligations and applicable law.
Putnam’s voting policies are rooted in our views that
(1) strong, independent corporate governance is important to long-term company financial performance, and (2) long-term investors’
active engagement with company management, including through the proxy voting process, strengthens issuer accountability and overall market
discipline, potentially reducing risk and improving returns over time. Our voting program is offered as a part of our investment management
services, at no incremental fee to Putnam, and, while there can be no guarantees, it is intended to offer potential investment benefits
over a long-term horizon. Our voting policies are designed with investment considerations in mind, not as a means to pursue particular
political, social, or other goals. As a result, we may not support certain proposals whose costs to the issuer (including implementation
costs, practicability, and other factors), in Putnam’s view, outweigh their investment merits.
This memorandum sets forth Putnam’s policies for voting
proxies. It covers all accounts for which Putnam has proxy voting authority. These accounts include the Putnam Mutual Funds1
and Putnam Exchange-Traded Funds, US and international institutional accounts and funds managed or sub-advised by The Putnam Advisory
Company, LLC, Putnam Investments Limited and Putnam Fiduciary Trust Company, LLC. In addition, the policies include US mutual funds and
other accounts sub-advised by Putnam Investment Management, LLC.2
1 Effective January 27, 2023, the Board of Trustees
of the Putnam Mutual Funds delegated proxy voting authority to Putnam Investment Management, LLC, the investment manager to the Putnam
Mutual Funds.
2 The Putnam Proxy Voting Procedures and Guidelines
will apply also to certain funds and institutional and other accounts managed by Franklin Advisers, Inc. (“FAV”) but formerly
managed or sub-advised by one of the Putnam adviser entities identified above, pursuant to sub-advisory agreements in effect from time
to time between FAV and the relevant Putnam entity(ies).
Proxy Committee
Putnam has a Proxy Committee composed of senior professionals,
including from the Putnam Equity investment team and the Putnam Equity Sustainability Strategy group. The Chief Investment Officer of
Putnam Equity appoints the members of the Proxy Committee. The Proxy Committee is responsible for setting general policy as to proxies.
Specifically, the Committee:
|
1. |
Reviews these
procedures and the Proxy Voting Guidelines annually and approves any amendments considered to be advisable. |
|
2. |
Considers
special proxy issues as they may from time to time arise. |
|
3. |
Must approve
all vote overrides recommended by investment professionals. |
Proxy Voting Administration
The Putnam Sustainability Strategy group administers Putnam’s proxy
voting through a Proxy Voting Team. The Proxy Voting Team has the following duties:
|
1. |
Annually prepares the Proxy Voting

Proxy Voting Guidelines
Putnam maintains written voting guidelines (“Guidelines”) setting
forth voting positions determined by the Proxy Committee on those issues believed most likely to arise day to day. The Guidelines may
call for votes to be cast normally in favor of or opposed to a matter or may deem the matter an item to be referred to investment professionals
on a case-by-case basis. A copy of the Guidelines is attached to this memorandum as Exhibit A.
In light of our views on the importance of issuer governance and investor
engagement, which we believe are applicable across our various strategies and clients, regardless of a specific portfolio’s investment
objective, Putnam will vote all proxies in accordance with the Guidelines, subject to two exceptions as follows:
|
1. |
If the portfolio
managers of client accounts holding the stock of a company with a proxy vote believe that following the Guidelines in any specific case
would not be in the clients’ best interests, they may request the Proxy Voting Team not to follow the guidelines in such case. The
request must be in writing and include an explanation of the rationale for doing so. The Proxy Voting Team will review any such request
with the Proxy Committee (or, in cases with limited time, with the Chair of the Proxy Committee acting on the Proxy Committee’s
behalf) prior to implementing the request. |
|
2. |
Putnam may accept instructions
to vote proxies under client specific guidelines subject to review and acceptance by the Investment Division and the Legal and Compliance
Department. |
Other
|
1. |
Putnam may elect not to vote when
the security is no longer held. |
|
2. |
Putnam will abstain
on items that require case-by-case review when a vote recommendation from the appropriate investment professional(s) cannot be obtained
due to restrictive voting deadlines or other prohibitive operational or administrative requirements. |
|
3. |
Where securities held in Putnam
client accounts, including the Putnam mutual funds, have been loaned to third parties in connection with a securities lending program
administered by Putnam (through securities lending agents overseen by Putnam), Putnam has instructed lending agents to recall U.S. securities
on loan to vote proxies, in accordance with Putnam’s securities lending procedures Due to differences in non-U.S. markets, Putnam
does not currently seek to recall non-U.S. securities on loan. In addition, where Putnam does not administer a client’s securities
lending program, this recall policy does not apply, since Putnam generally does not have information on loan details or authority to effect
recalls in those cases. It is possible that, for impracticability or other reasons, a recalled security may not be returned to the relevant
custodian in time to allow Putnam to vote the relevant proxy. |
|
4. |
Putnam will make its reasonable
best efforts to vote all proxies except when impeded by circumstances that are reasonably beyond its control and responsibility, such
as custodial proxy voting services, in part or whole, not available or not established by a client, or custodial error. |
Proxy Voting Referrals
Under the Guidelines, certain proxy matters will be referred to Portfolio
Managers. The Portfolio Manager receiving the referral request may delegate the vote decision to an appropriate Analyst from among a list
of eligible analysts (such list to be approved by the Chief Investment Officer of the Putnam Equity group and the Director of Equity Research
for the Putnam Equity group). The Analyst will be required to make the affirmation and disclosures identified in (3) below. Normally specific
referral items will be referred to the portfolio team leader (or another member of the portfolio team he or she designates) whose accounts
hold the greatest number of shares of the issuer of the proxies through the Proxy Referral Administration Database. The referral request
contains (1) a field that will be used by the portfolio team leader or member for recommending a vote on each referral item, (2) a field
for describing any contacts relating to the proxy referral item the portfolio team may have had with any Franklin Templeton employee outside
Putnam Equity or with any person other than a proxy solicitor acting in the normal course of proxy solicitation, and (3) a field for portfolio
managers to affirm that they are making vote recommendations in the best interest of client accounts and have disclosed to Compliance
any potential conflicts of interest relevant to their vote recommendation.
Putnam may vote any referred items on securities held solely in accounts
managed by the GAA team within Franklin Templeton Investment Solutions (and not held by any other investment product team) in accordance
with the recommendation of Putnam’s third-party proxy voting service provider. The Proxy Voting Team will first give the relevant
portfolio manager(s) on the GAA team the opportunity to review the referred items and vote on them. If the portfolio manager(s) on the
GAA team do not decide to make any active voting decision on any of the referred items, the items will be voted in accordance with the
service provider’s recommendation. If the security is also held by other investment teams at Putnam Equity, the items will be referred
to the largest holder who is not a member of the GAA team.
The portfolio team leader or members who have been requested to provide
a recommendation on a proxy referral item will complete the referral request. Upon receiving each completed referral request from the
applicable Portfolio Manager or Analyst, the Proxy Voting Team will review the completed request for accuracy and completeness, and will
follow up with investment personnel as appropriate.
Conflicts of Interest
A potential conflict of interest may arise when voting proxies of an issuer
which has a significant business relationship with Putnam. For example, Putnam could manage a defined benefit or defined contribution
pension plan for the issuer. Putnam’s policy is to vote proxies based solely on the investment merits of the proposal. In order
to guard against conflicts, the following procedures have been adopted:
|
1. |
The Proxy Committee is composed
of senior professionals, including Portfolio Managers in Putnam Equity and the Putnam Equity Sustainability Strategy group. None of these
individuals or groups reports to Franklin Templeton’s marketing businesses. |
|
2. |
No Franklin Templeton employee
outside Putnam Equity may contact any portfolio manager about any proxy vote without first contacting the Proxy Voting Team or a senior
lawyer in the Legal and Compliance Department. There is no prohibition on employees seeking to communicate investment-related information
to investment professionals except for Putnam’s restrictions on dissemination of material, non-public information. However, the
Proxy Voting Team will coordinate the delivery of such information to investment professionals to avoid appearances of conflict. |
|
3. |
Investment professionals responding
to referral requests must disclose any contacts with third parties other than normal contact with proxy solicitation firms and must affirm
that they are making vote recommendations in the best interest of client accounts and have disclosed to the Proxy Voting Team any potential
conflicts of interest relevant to their vote recommendation. |
|
4. |
The Proxy Voting Team will review
the name of the issuer of each proxy that contains a referral item against various sources of Putnam business relationships maintained
by the Legal and Compliance Department or Client Service for potential material business relationships (i.e., conflicts of interest).
For referrals, the Proxy Voting Team will complete the Proxy Voting Conflict of Interest Disclosure Form (attached as Exhibit B and
C) via the Proxy Referral Administration Database and will prepare a quarterly report for the Putnam Chief Compliance Officer identifying
all completed Conflict of Interest Disclosure forms. |
|
5. |
Putnam’s Proxy Voting Guidelines
may only be overridden with the written recommendation from a member of the Investment Division and concurrence of the Proxy Committee
(or, in cases with limited time, with the Chair of the Proxy Committee on the Proxy Committee’s behalf). |
Recordkeeping
The Putnam Equity Sustainability Strategy Group will retain copies of the
following books and records:
|
1. |
A copy of the Proxy Voting Procedures
and Guidelines as are from time to time in effect; |
|
2. |
A copy of each proxy statement
received with respect to securities in client accounts; |
|
3. |
Records of each vote cast for
each client; |
|
4. |
Internal documents generated in
connection with a proxy referral, such as emails, memoranda, etc. |
|
5. |
Written reports to clients on
proxy voting and all client requests for information and Putnam’s response. |
All records will be maintained for seven years. A proxy vendor may on Putnam’s
behalf maintain the records noted in 2 and 3 above if it commits to providing copies promptly upon request.
Exhibit A to Proxy Procedures
Putnam Investments Proxy
Voting Guidelines
The proxy voting guidelines below summarize Putnam’s positions on
various issues of concern to investors and indicate how client portfolio securities will be voted on proposals dealing with a particular
issue. The proxy voting service is instructed to vote all proxies relating to client portfolio securities in accordance with these guidelines,
except as otherwise instructed by the Proxy Voting Team.
Putnam’s voting policies are rooted in our views that (1) strong,
independent corporate governance is important to long-term company financial performance, and (2) long-term investors’ active engagement
with company management, including through the proxy voting process, strengthens issuer accountability and overall market discipline,
potentially reducing risk and improving returns over time. Our voting program is offered as a part of our investment management services,
at no incremental fee to Putnam, and, while there can be no guarantees, it is intended to offer potential investment benefits over a long-term
horizon. Our voting policies are designed with investment considerations in mind, not as a means to pursue particular political, social,
or other goals. As a result, we may not support certain proposals whose costs to the issuer (including implementation costs, practicability,
and other factors), in Putnam’s view, outweigh their investment merits.
These proxy voting policies are intended to be decision-making guidelines.
The guidelines are not exhaustive and do not include all potential voting issues. In addition, as contemplated by and subject to Putnam’s
Proxy Voting Procedures, because proxy issues and the circumstances of individual companies are so varied, portfolio teams may recommend
votes that may vary from the general policy choices set forth in the guidelines.
The following guidelines are grouped according to the types of proposals
generally presented to shareholders. Part I deals with proposals which have been approved and recommended by a company’s board of
directors. Part II deals with proposals submitted by shareholders for inclusion in proxy statements. Part III addresses unique considerations
pertaining to non-US issuers.
I. Board-Approved Proposals
Proxies will be voted for board-approved proposals, except as follows:
|
A. |
Matters Relating to the
Board of Directors |
Uncontested Election of Directors
The board of directors has the important role of overseeing management and
its performance on behalf of shareholders. When evaluating a company’s board, Putnam may consider the diversity of professional
backgrounds and personal characteristics. Putnam believes that companies generally benefit from diversity on the board, including diversity
with respect to gender, ethnicity, race, skills, perspectives and experience.
Proxies will be voted for the election of the company’s
nominees for directors (and/or subsidiary directors) and for board-approved proposals on other matters relating to the board
of directors (provided that such nominees and other matters have been approved by an independent nominating committee), except as follows:
| Ø |
Putnam will
withhold votes from the entire board of directors if: |
|
· |
The board does not have a majority
of independent directors, |
|
· |
The board does not have nominating,
audit and compensation committees composed solely of independent directors, or |
|
· |
The board has more than 15 members
or fewer than five members, absent special circumstances. |
| Ø |
Putnam may refrain from withholding
votes from the board due to insufficient key committee independence due to director resignation, change in board structure, or other specific
circumstances, provided that the company has stated (for example in an 8-K), or it can otherwise be determined, that the board will address
committee composition to ensure compliance with the applicable corporate governance code in a timely manner after the shareholder meeting
and the company has a history of appropriate board independence. |
Unless otherwise indicated, for the purposes of determining whether a board
has a majority of independent directors and independent nominating, audit, and compensation committees, an independent director is a director
who (1) meets all requirements to serve as an independent director of a company under the final NYSE Corporate Governance Rules (e.g.,
no material business relationships with the company and no present or recent employment relationship with the company (including employment
of an immediate family member as an executive officer)), and (2) has not accepted directly or indirectly any consulting, advisory, or
other compensatory fee (excluding immaterial fees for transactional services as defined by the NYSE Corporate Governance rules) from the
company other than in his or her capacity as a member of the board of directors or any board committee. Putnam believes that the receipt
of such compensation for services other than service as a director raises significant independence issues.
|
Ø |
Putnam will withhold votes
from any nominee for director who is considered an independent director by the company and who has received compensation within the last
three years from the company for the provision of professional services (e.g., investment banking, consulting, legal or financial advisory
fees). |
|
Ø |
Putnam will withhold votes
from any nominee for director who attends fewer than 75% of board and committee meetings. Putnam may refrain from withholding votes on
a case-by-case basis if a valid reason for the absence exists, such as illness, personal emergency, potential conflict of interest,
etc. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will withhold votes
from any incumbent nominee for director who served on a board that has not acted to implement a policy requested in a shareholder proposal
that received the support of a majority of the votes actually cast on the matter at its previous two annual meetings, or |
|
Ø |
Putnam will withhold votes
from any incumbent nominee for director who served on a board that adopted, renewed, or made a material adverse modification to a shareholder
rights plan (commonly referred to as a “poison pill”) without shareholder approval during the current or prior calendar year.
(This is applicable to any type of poison pill, for example, advance-warning type pill, EGM pill, and Trust Defense Plans in Japan.) |
Putnam will refrain from opposing the board members who served at the time
of the adoption of the poison pill if the duration is one year or less, if the plan contains other suitable restrictions; or if the company
publicly discloses convincing rationale for its adoption and seeks shareholder approval of future renewals of the poison pill. (Suitable
restrictions could include but are not limited to, a higher threshold for passive investors. Convincing rationale could include circumstances
such as, but not limited to, extreme market disruption or conditions, stock volatility, substantial merger, active investor interest,
or takeover attempts.)
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote on a case-by-case
basis and may consider voting against the Nominating Committee Chair if there is a lack of evidence of board diversity. |
Putnam is concerned about over-committed directors. In some cases, directors
may serve on too many boards to make a meaningful contribution. This may be particularly true for senior executives of public companies
(or other directors with substantially full-time employment) who serve on more than a few outside boards.
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote against
any non-executive nominee for director who serves on more than four (4) public company boards, except where Putnam would otherwise be
withholding votes for the entire board of directors. For the purpose of this guideline, boards of affiliated registered investment companies
and other similar entities such as UCITS will count as one board. Generally, Putnam will withhold support from directors serving on more
than four unaffiliated public company boards, although an exception may be made in the case of a director who represents an investing
firm with the sole purpose of managing a portfolio of investments that includes the company. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will withhold
votes from any nominee for director who serves as an executive officer of any public company (“home company”) while serving
on more than two (2) public company boards other than the home company board. (Putnam will withhold votes from the nominee at each
company where Putnam client portfolios own shares.) In addition, if Putnam client portfolios are shareholders of the executive's home
company, Putnam will withhold votes from members of the company's governance committee. For the purpose of this guideline, boards of affiliated
registered investment companies and other similar entities such as UCITS will count as one board. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will withhold votes
from any nominee for director of a public company (Company A) who is employed as a senior executive of another public company (Company
B) if a director of Company B serves as a senior executive of Company A (commonly referred to as an “interlocking directorate”).
|
Board independence depends not only on its members’ individual relationships,
but also the board’s overall attitude toward management. Independent boards are committed to good corporate governance practices
and, by providing objective independent judgment, enhancing shareholder value. Putnam may withhold votes on a case-by-case basis from
some or all directors that, through their lack of independence, have failed to observe good corporate governance practices or, through
specific corporate action, have demonstrated a disregard for the interest of shareholders.
Note: Designation of executive director is based on company disclosure.
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote against
proposals that provide that a director may be removed only for cause. Putnam will generally vote for proposals that permit
the removal of directors with or without cause. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote against
proposals authorizing a board to fill a director vacancy without shareholder approval. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote on a case-by-case
basis on subsidiary director nominees if Putnam will be voting against the nominees of the parent company’s board. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote on a case-by-case
basis for director nominees, including nominees for positions on Supervisory Boards or Supervisory Committees, or similar board entities
(depending on board structure), for (re)election when cumulative voting applies. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote for
proposals to approve annual directors’ fees, except that Putnam will vote on a case-by-case basis if Putnam’s
independent proxy voting service has recommended a vote against such proposal. Additionally, Putnam will vote for proposals
to approve the grant of equity awards to directors, except that Putnam will consider these proposals on a case-by-case basis
if Putnam’s proxy service provider is recommending a vote against the proposal. |
Classified Boards
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote against
proposals to classify a board, absent special circumstances indicating that shareholder interests would be better served by this structure.
|
Ratification of Auditors
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote on a case-by-case
basis on proposals to ratify the selection of independent auditors if there is evidence that the audit firm’s independence or the
integrity of an audit is compromised. (Otherwise, Putnam will vote for.) |
Contested Elections of Directors
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote on a case-by-case
basis in contested elections of directors. |
B. Executive Compensation
Putnam will vote on a case-by-case basis on board-approved
proposals relating to executive compensation, except as follows:
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote for
stock option and restricted stock plans that will result in an average annual dilution of 1.67% or less (based on the disclosed term of
the plan and including all equity-based plans), except where Putnam would otherwise be withholding votes for the entire board of directors
in which case Putnam will evaluate the plans on a case-by-case basis. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote against
stock option and restricted stock plans that will result in an average annual dilution of greater than 1.67% (based on the disclosed term
of the plan and including all equity plans). |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote against
any stock option or restricted stock plan where the company's actual grants of stock options and restricted stock under all equity-based
compensation plans during the prior three (3) fiscal years have resulted in an average annual dilution of greater than 1.67%. |
|
Ø |
Additionally, if the annualized
dilution cannot be calculated, Putnam will vote for plans where the Total Potential Dilution is 5% or less. If the annualized
dilution cannot be calculated and the Total Potential Dilution exceeds 5%, then Putnam will vote against. Note: Such plans
must first pass all of Putnam's other screens. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote proposals to
issue equity grants to executives on a case-by-case basis. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote against
stock option plans that permit replacing or repricing of underwater options (and against any proposal to authorize such
replacement or repricing of underwater options). |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote against
stock option plans that permit issuance of options with an exercise price below the stock’s current market price. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote against
stock option plans/ restricted stock plans with evergreen features providing for automatic share replenishment. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote for bonus
plans under which payments are treated as performance-based compensation that is deductible under Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986, as amended, except as follows: |
Vote on a
case-by-case basis on such proposals if any of the following circumstances exist:
|
· |
the amount per employee under
the plan is unlimited, or |
|
· |
the maximum award pool is undisclosed,
or |
|
· |
the incentive bonus plan’s
performance criteria are undisclosed, or |
|
· |
the independent proxy voting service
recommends a vote against. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote in favor of the
annual presentation of advisory votes on executive compensation (Say-on-Pay). |
|
Ø |
Putnam will generally vote for
advisory votes on executive compensation (Say-on-Pay). However, Putnam will vote against an advisory vote if the company
fails to effectively link executive compensation to company performance according to benchmarking performed by the independent proxy voting
service. |
|
· |
Putnam will review the proposal
on a case-by-case basis if there is no recommendation of the independent proxy voting service. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote on a case-by-case
basis on severance agreements (e.g., golden and tin parachutes) |
|
Ø |
Putnam will withhold
votes from members of a Board of Directors which has approved compensation arrangements Putnam’s investment personnel have determined
are grossly unreasonable at the next election at which such director is up for re-election. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote for
employee stock purchase plans that have the following features: (1) the shares purchased under the plan are acquired for no less than
85% of their market value, (2) the offering period under the plan is 27 months or less, and (3) dilution is 10% or less. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote for
Non-qualified Employee Stock Purchase Plans with all the following features: |
|
1) |
Broad-based participation (i.e.,
all employees of the company with the exclusion of individuals with 5 percent or more of beneficial ownership of the company). |
|
2) |
Limits on employee contribution,
which may be a fixed dollar amount or expressed as a percent of base salary. |
|
3) |
Company matching contribution
up to 25 percent of employee's contribution, which is effectively a discount of 20 percent from market value. |
|
4) |
No discount on the stock price
on the date of purchase since there is a company matching contribution. |
Putnam will vote against Non-qualified Employee Stock Purchase
Plans when any of the plan features do not meet the above criteria.
Putnam may vote against executive compensation proposals on a case-by-case
basis where compensation is excessive by reasonable corporate standards, or where a company fails to provide transparent disclosure of
executive compensation. In voting on proposals relating to executive compensation, Putnam will consider whether the proposal has been
approved by an independent compensation committee of the board.
C. Capitalization
Putnam will vote on a case-by-case basis on board-approved
proposals involving changes to a company’s capitalization, except as follows:
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote for
proposals relating to the authorization of additional common stock, except that Putnam will evaluate such proposals on a case-by-case
basis if (i) they relate to a specific transaction or to common stock with special voting rights, (ii) the company has a non-shareholder
approved poison pill in place, or (iii) the company has had sizeable stock placements to insiders within the past three years at prices
substantially below market value without shareholder approval. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote for
proposals to effect stock splits (excluding reverse stock splits.) |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote for
proposals authorizing share repurchase programs, except that Putnam will vote on a case-by-case basis if there are concerns
that there may be abusive practices related to the share repurchase programs. |
D. Acquisitions, Mergers, Reorganizations and
Other Transactions
Putnam will vote on a case-by-case basis on business transactions
such as acquisitions, mergers, reorganizations involving business combinations, liquidations and sale of all or substantially all of a
company’s assets.
E. Anti-Takeover Measures
Putnam will vote against board-approved proposals to adopt
anti-takeover measures such as supermajority voting provisions, issuance of blank check preferred stock, the creation of a separate class
of stock with disparate voting rights, control share acquisition provisions, targeted share placements, and ability to make greenmail
payments, except as follows:
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote on a case-by-case
basis on proposals to ratify or approve shareholder rights plans; |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote on a case-by-case
basis on proposals to adopt fair price provisions. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote on a case-by-case
basis on proposals to issue blank check preferred stock in the case of REITs (only) |
|
Ø |
Putnam will generally vote for
proposals that enable or expand shareholders’ ability to take action by written consent. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote on a case-by-case
basis on proposals to increase shares of an existing class of stock with disparate voting rights from another share class. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote on a case-by-case
basis on shareholder or board-approved proposals to eliminate supermajority voting provisions at controlled companies (companies
in which an individual or a group voting collectively holds a majority of the voting interest). |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote on a case-by-case
basis on board-approved proposals to adopt supermajority voting provisions at controlled companies (companies in which an individual
or a group voting collectively holds a majority of the voting interest). |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote on a case-by-case
basis on proposals to issue blank check preferred stock if appropriate “de-clawed” language is present. Specifically,
appropriate de-clawed language will include cases where the Company states (i.e., through 8-K, proxy statement or other public
disclosure) it will not use the preferred stock for anti-takeover purposes, or in order to implement a shareholder rights plan, or discloses
a commitment to submit any future issuances of preferred stock to be used in a shareholder rights plan/anti-takeover purpose to a shareholder
vote prior to its adoption. |
F. Other Business Matters
Putnam will vote for board-approved proposals approving routine
business matters such as changing the company’s name and procedural matters relating to the shareholder meeting, except as follows:
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote on a case-by-case
basis on proposals to amend a company’s charter or bylaws (except for charter amendments necessary or to effect stock splits, to
change a company’s name, to authorize additional shares of common stock or other matters which are considered routine (for example,
director age or term limits), technical in nature, fall within Putnam’s guidelines (for example, regarding board size or virtual
meetings), are required pursuant to regulatory and/or listing rules, have little or no economic impact or will not negatively impact shareholder
rights). |
|
Ø |
Additionally, Putnam believes
the bundling of items, whether the items are related or unrelated, is generally not in shareholders’ best interest. We may vote
against the entire bundled proposal if we would normally vote against any of the items if presented individually. In these cases, we will
review the bundled proposal on a case-by-case basis. |
|
Ø |
Putnam generally supports quorum
requirements if the level is set high enough to ensure a broad range of shareholders is represented in person or by proxy but low enough
so that the Company can transact necessary business. Putnam will vote on a case-by-case basis on proposals seeking to change
quorum requirements; however, Putnam will normally support proposals that seek to comply with market or exchange requirements. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote on a case-by-case
basis on proposals seeking to change a company’s state of incorporation. However, Putnam will vote for mergers and
reorganizations involving business combinations designed solely to reincorporate a company in Delaware. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote against
authorization to transact other unidentified, substantive business at the meeting. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote against
proposals where there is a lack of information to make an informed voting decision. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote as follows on
proposals to adjourn shareholder meetings: |
If Putnam is withholding support for the board
of the company at the meeting, any proposal to adjourn should be referred for case-by-case analysis.
If Putnam is not withholding support for the board, Putnam will
vote in favor of adjourning, unless the vote concerns an issue that is being referred back to Putnam for case-by-case review. Under such
circumstances, the proposal to adjourn should also be referred to Putnam for case-by-case analysis.
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote against
management proposals to adopt a specific state’s courts, or a specific U.S. district court as the exclusive forum for certain disputes,
except that Putnam will vote for proposals adopting the State of Delaware, or the Delaware Chancery Court, as the exclusive
forum, for corporate law matters for issuers incorporated in Delaware. Requiring shareholders to bring actions solely in one state may
discourage the pursuit of derivative claims by increasing their difficulty and cost. However, Putnam’s guideline recognizes the
expertise of the Delaware state court system in handling disputes involving Delaware corporations. In addition, Putnam will withhold
votes from the chair of the Nominating/Governance committee if a company amends its Bylaws, or takes other actions, to adopt a
specific state’s courts (other than Delaware courts, for issuers incorporated in Delaware) or a specific U.S. district court as
the exclusive forum for certain disputes without shareholder approval. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote on a case-by-case
basis on management proposals seeking to adopt a bylaw amendment allowing the company to shift legal fees and costs to unsuccessful plaintiffs
in intra-corporate litigation (fee-shifting bylaw). Additionally, Putnam will vote against the Chair of the Nominating/Governance
committee if a company adopts a fee-shifting bylaw amendment without shareholder approval. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will support management/shareholder
proxy access proposals as long as the proposals align with the following principles for a shareholder (or up to 20 shareholders together
as a group) to receive proxy access: |
1) The required minimum aggregate ownership of the Company’s
outstanding common stock is no greater than 3%;
2) The required minimum holding period for the shareholder proponent(s)
is no greater than two years; and
3) The shareholder(s) are permitted to nominate at least 20% of
director candidates for election to the board.
Proposals requesting shares be held for 3 years will be reviewed
on a case-by-case basis. Putnam will vote against proposals requesting shares be held for more than
three years. Proposals that meet Putnam’s stated criteria and include other requirements relating to issues such as, but not limited
to, shares on loan or compensation agreements with nominees, will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis.
Additionally, shareholder proposals seeking an amendment to a company’s
proxy access policy which include any one of the supported criteria under Putnam’s guidelines, for example, a 2-year holding period
for shareholders, will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis.
|
Ø |
Putnam supports management / shareholder
proposals giving shareholders the right to call a special meeting as long as the ownership requirement in such proposals is at least 15%
of the company's outstanding common stock and not more than 25%. |
In general, Putnam will vote for management or shareholder
proposals to reduce the ownership requirement below a company’s existing threshold, as long as the new threshold is at least 15%
and not greater than 25% of the company’s outstanding common stock.
Putnam will vote against any proposal with an ownership
requirement exceeding 25% of the company’s common stock or an ownership requirement that is less than 15% of the company's
outstanding common stock.
In cases where there are competing management and shareholder proposals
giving shareholders the right to call a special meeting, Putnam will generally vote for the proposal which has the lower
minimum shareholder ownership threshold, as long as that threshold is within Putnam’s recommended minimum/maximum thresholds. If
only one of the competing proposals has a threshold that falls within Putnam’s threshold range, Putnam will normally support that
proposal as long as it represents an improvement (reduction) from the previous requisite ownership level. Putnam will normally vote against
both proposals if neither proposal has a requisite ownership level between 15% and 25% of the company’s outstanding
common stock.
|
Ø |
Putnam will generally vote for
management or shareholder proposals to allow a company to hold virtual-only or hybrid shareholder meetings or to amend its articles/charter/by-laws
to allow for virtual-only or hybrid shareholder meetings, provided the proposal does not preclude in-person meetings (at any given time),
and does not otherwise limit or impair shareholder participation; and if the company has provided clear disclosure to ensure that shareholders
can effectively participate in virtual-only shareholder meetings and meaningfully communicate with company management and directors. Additionally,
Putnam may consider the rationale of the proposal and whether there have been concerns about the company’s previous meeting practices.
|
Disclosure should address the following:
|
· |
the ability of shareholders to
ask questions during the meeting |
|
o |
including time guidelines for
shareholder questions |
|
o |
rules around what types of questions
are allowed |
|
o |
and rules for how questions and
comments will be recognized and disclosed to meeting participants |
|
o |
the manner in which appropriate
questions received during the meeting will be addressed by the board |
|
· |
procedures, if any, for posting
appropriate questions received during the meeting and the company’s answers on the investor page of their website as soon as is
practical after the meeting |
|
· |
technical and logistical issues
related to accessing the virtual meeting platform; and |
|
· |
procedures for accessing technical
support to assist in the event of any difficulties accessing the virtual meeting |
Putnam may vote against proposals that do not meet these criteria.
Additionally, Putnam may vote against the Chair of
the Governance Committee when the board is planning to hold a virtual-only shareholder meeting and the company has not provided sufficient
disclosure (as noted above) or shareholder access to the meeting.
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote for
proposals to approve a company’s board-approved climate transition action plan (“say on climate” proposals in which
the company’s board proposes that shareholders indicate their support for the company’s plan), unless the proxy voting service
has recommended a vote against the proposal, in which case Putnam will vote on a case-by-case basis on the proposal. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote on a case-by-case
basis on board-approved proposals that conflict with shareholder proposals. |
II. Shareholder Proposals
Shareholder proposals are non-binding votes that are often opposed by management.
Some proposals relate to matters that are financially immaterial to the company’s business, while others may be impracticable or
costly for a company to implement. At the same time, well-crafted shareholder proposals may serve the purpose of raising issues that are
material to a company’s business for management’s consideration and response. Putnam seeks to weigh the costs of different
types of proposals against their expected financial benefits. More specifically:
Putnam will vote in accordance with the recommendation of the company’s
board of directors on all shareholder proposals, except as follows:
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote for
shareholder proposals that are consistent with Putnam’s proxy voting guidelines for board-approved proposals. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote for
shareholder proposals to declassify a board, absent special circumstances which would indicate that shareholder interests are better served
by a classified board structure. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote for
shareholder proposals to require shareholder approval of shareholder rights plans. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote for
shareholder proposals asking that director nominees receive support from holders of a majority of votes cast or a majority of shares outstanding
of the company in order to be (re) elected. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will review on a case-by-case
basis, shareholder proposals requesting that the board adopt a policy whereby, in the event of a significant restatement of financial
results or significant extraordinary write-off, the board will recoup, to the fullest extent practicable, for the benefit of the company,
all performance-based bonuses or awards that were made to senior executives based on having met or exceeded specific performance targets
to the extent that the specified performance targets were not met. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote for
shareholder proposals urging the board to seek shareholder approval of any future supplemental executive retirement plan ("SERP"),
or individual retirement arrangement, for senior executives that provides credit for additional years of service not actually worked,
preferential benefit formulas not provided under the company's tax-qualified retirement plans, accelerated vesting of retirement benefits
or retirement perquisites and fringe benefits that are not generally offered to other company employees. (Implementation of this policy
shall not breach any existing employment agreement or vested benefit.) |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote for
shareholder proposals requiring companies to report on their executive retirement benefits. (Deferred compensation, split-dollar life
insurance, SERPs and pension benefits) |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote for
shareholder proposals requesting that a company establish a pay-for-superior-performance standard whereby the company discloses defined
financial and/or stock price performance criteria (along with the detailed list of comparative peer group) to allow shareholders to sufficiently
determine the pay and performance correlation established in the company’s performance-based equity program. In addition, no multi-year
award should be paid out unless the company’s performance exceeds, during the current CEO’s tenure (three or more years),
its peer median or mean performance on selected financial and stock price performance criteria. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote for
shareholder proposals urging the board to disclose in a separate report to shareholders, the Company’s relationships with its executive
compensation consultants or firms. Specifically, the report should identify the entity that retained each consultant (the company, the
board or the compensation committee) and the types of services provided by the consultant in the past five years (non-compensation-related
services to the company or to senior management and a list of all public company clients where the Company’s executives serve as
a director.) |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote for
shareholder proposals requiring companies to accelerate vesting of equity awards under management severance agreements only if both of
the following conditions are met: |
|
· |
the company undergoes a change
in control, and |
|
· |
the change in control results
in the termination of employment for the person receiving the severance payment. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote for
shareholder proposals requiring that the chair’s position be filled by an independent director (separate chair/CEO). However, Putnam
will vote on a case-by-case basis on such proposals when the company’s board has a lead-independent director (or already
has an independent or separate chair) and Putnam is supporting the nominees for the board of directors. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote for
shareholder proposals seeking the submission of golden coffins to a shareholder vote or the elimination of the practice altogether. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote for
shareholder proposals seeking a policy that forbids any director who receives more than 25% withhold votes cast (based on for and withhold
votes) from serving on any key board committee for two years and asking the board to find replacement directors for the committees if
need be. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote for
shareholder proposals urging the board to seek shareholder approval of severance agreements (e.g., golden and tin parachutes). |
|
· |
However, Putnam will vote against
such proposals when the company has a policy that minimally requires shareholder approval of severance agreements for executives that
provides for cash severance benefits exceeding 2.99 times the sum of the executive's base salary plus target annual non-equity incentive
plan bonus opportunity. |
Putnam will vote on a case-by-case basis
on approving such compensation arrangements.
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote for
shareholder proposals requiring companies to make cash payments under management severance agreements only if both of the following conditions
are met: the company undergoes a change in control, and the change in control results in the termination of employment for the person
receiving the severance payment. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote on a case-by-case
basis on shareholder proposals to limit a company’s ability to make excise tax gross-up payments under management severance agreements
as well as proposals to limit income or other tax gross-up payments. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote in accordance
with the recommendation of the company’s board of directors on shareholder proposals regarding corporate political spending,
unless Putnam is voting against the directors, in which case the proposal would be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote on a case-by-case
basis on shareholder proposals that conflict with board-approved proposals. |
Environmental and Social
|
Ø |
Putnam believes that sustainable
environmental practices and sustainable social policies are important components of long-term value creation. Companies should evaluate
the potential risks to their business operations that are directly related to environmental and social factors (among others). In evaluating
shareholder proposals relating to environmental and social initiatives, Putnam takes into account (1) the relevance and materiality of
the proposal to the company’s business, (2) whether the proposal is well crafted (e.g., whether it references science-based targets,
or standard global protocols), and (3) the practicality or reasonableness of implementing the proposal. |
Putnam may support well-crafted and well-targeted proposals that
request additional reporting or disclosure on a company’s plans to mitigate risk to the company related to the following issues
and/or their strategies related to these issues: Environmental issues, including but not limited to, climate change, greenhouse gas emissions,
renewable energy, and broader sustainability issues; and Social issues, including but not limited to, fair pay, employee diversity and
development, safety, labor rights, supply chain management, privacy and data security.
In addition, Putnam will consider proposals related to Artificial
Intelligence (“AI”) on a case-by-case basis.
Putnam will consider factors such as (i) the industry in which
the company operates, (ii) the company's current level of disclosure, (iii) the company's level of oversight, (iv) the company’s
management of risk arising out of these matters, (v) whether the company has suffered a material financial impact. Other factors may also
be considered.
Putnam will consider the recommendation of its third-party proxy
service provider and may consider other factors such as third-party evaluations of ESG performance.
Additionally, Putnam may vote on a case-by-case basis
on proposals which ask a company to take action beyond reporting where our third-party proxy service provider has identified one or more
reasons to warrant a vote FOR.
III. Voting Shares of Non-US Issuers
Many non-US jurisdictions impose material burdens on voting proxies. There
are three primary types of limits as follows:
|
(1) |
Share blocking. Shares must be
frozen for certain periods of time to vote via proxy. |
|
(2) |
Share re-registration. Shares
must be re-registered out of the name of the local custodian or nominee into the name of the client for the meeting and, in many cases,
then re-registered back. Shares are normally blocked in this period. |
|
(3) |
Powers of Attorney. Detailed documentation
from a client must be given to the local sub-custodian. In many cases Putnam is not authorized to deliver this information or sign the
relevant documents. |
Putnam’s policy is to weigh the benefits to clients from voting in
these jurisdictions against the detriments of not doing so. For example, in a share blocking jurisdiction, it will normally not be in
a client’s interest to freeze shares simply to participate in a non- contested routine meeting. More specifically, Putnam will normally
not vote shares in non-US jurisdictions imposing burdensome proxy voting requirements except in significant votes (such as contested elections
and major corporate transactions) where directed by portfolio managers.
Putnam recognizes that the laws governing non-US issuers will vary
significantly from US law and from jurisdiction to jurisdiction. Accordingly, it may not be possible or even advisable to apply these
guidelines mechanically to non-US issuers. However, Putnam believes that shareholders of all companies are protected by the existence
of a sound corporate governance and disclosure framework. Accordingly, Putnam will vote proxies of non-US issuers in accordance
with the foregoing guidelines where applicable, except as follows:
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote for
shareholder proposals calling for a majority of the directors to be independent of management. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote for
shareholder proposals that implement corporate governance standards similar to those established under U.S. federal law and the listing
requirements of U.S. stock exchanges, and that do not otherwise violate the laws of the jurisdiction under which the company is incorporated.
|
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote on a case-by-case
basis on proposals relating to (1) the issuance of common stock in excess of 20% of a company’s outstanding common stock where shareholders
do not have preemptive rights, or (2) the issuance of common stock in excess of 100% of a company’s outstanding common stock where
shareholders have preemptive rights. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote for
proposals to authorize share repurchase programs that are recommended for approval by Putnam’s proxy voting service provider, otherwise
Putnam will vote against such proposals; except that Putnam will vote on a case-by-case basis if there are
concerns that there may be abusive practices related to the share repurchase programs. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote against
authorizations to repurchase shares or issue shares or convertible debt instruments with or without preemptive rights when such authorization
can be used as a takeover defense without shareholder approval. Putnam will not apply this policy to a company with a shareholder who
controls more than 50% of its voting rights. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will generally vote for
proposals that include debt issuances, however substantive/non-routine proposals, and proposals that fall outside of normal market practice
or reasonable standards, will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote for
board-approved routine, market-practice proposals. These proposals are limited to (1) those issues that will have little or no economic
impact, such as technical, editorial, or mandatory regulatory compliance items, (2) those issues that will not adversely affect and/or
which clearly improve shareholder rights/values, and which do not violate Putnam’s proxy voting guidelines, or (3) those issues
that do not seek to deviate from existing laws or regulations. Examples include but are not limited to, related party transactions (non-strategic),
profit-and-loss transfer agreements (Germany), authority to increase paid-in capital (Taiwan). Should any unusual circumstances be identified
concerning a normally routine issue, such proposals will be referred back to Putnam for internal review. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will generally vote for
proposals regarding amendments seeking to expand business lines or to amend the corporate purpose, provided the proposal would not include
a significant or material departure from the company’s current business, and/or will provide the company with greater flexibility
in the performance of its activities. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will normally vote for
management proposals concerning allocation of income and the distribution of dividends. However, Putnam portfolio teams will override
this guideline when they conclude that the proposals are outside the market norms (i.e., those seen as consistently and unusually small
or large compared to market practices). |
|
Ø |
Putnam will generally vote for
proposals seeking to adjust the par value of common stock. However, non-routine, substantive proposals will be reviewed on a case-by-case
basis. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote against
proposals that would authorize the company to reduce the notice period for calling special or extraordinary general meetings to less than
21-Days. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will generally vote for
proposals relating to transfer of reserves/increase of reserves (i.e., France, Japan). However, Putnam will vote on a case-by-case
basis if the proposal falls outside of normal market practice. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will generally vote for
proposals to increase the maximum variable pay ratio. However, Putnam will vote on a case-by-case basis if we are voting
against a company’s remuneration report or if the proposal seeks an increase in excess of 200%. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will review stock option
plans on a case-by-case basis which allow for the options exercise price to be reduced by dividend payments (if the plan
would normally pass Putnam’s Guidelines). |
|
Ø |
Putnam will generally vote for
requests to provide loan guarantees however, Putnam will vote on a case-by-case basis if the total amount of guarantees
is in excess of 100% of the company’s audited net assets. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will generally support
remuneration report/policy proposals (i.e., advisory/binding) where a company’s executive compensation is linked directly with the
performance of the business and executive. Putnam will generally support compensation proposals which incorporate a mix of reasonable
salary and performance based short- and long-term incentives. Companies should demonstrate that their remuneration policies are designed
and managed to incentivize and retain executives while growing the company’s long-term shareholder value. |
Generally, Putnam will vote against remuneration report/policy
proposals (i.e., advisory/binding) in the following cases:
|
· |
Disconnect between pay and performance
|
|
· |
No performance metrics disclosed;
|
|
· |
No relative performance metrics
utilized; |
|
· |
Single performance metric was
used and it was an absolute measure; |
|
· |
Performance goals were lowered
when management failed or was unlikely to meet original goals; |
|
· |
Long Term Incentive Plan is subject
to retesting (e.g., Australia); |
|
· |
Service contracts longer than
12 months (e.g., United Kingdom); |
|
· |
Allows vesting below median for
relative performance metrics; |
|
· |
Ex-gratia / non-contractual payments
have been made (e.g., United Kingdom and Australia); |
|
· |
Contains provisions to automatically
vest upon change-of-control; or |
|
· |
Other poor compensation practices
or structures. |
|
· |
Pension provisions for new executives
is not at the same level as the majority of the wider workforce; pension provisions for incumbent executives are not set to decrease over
time (United Kingdom) |
|
· |
Proposed CEO salary increases
are not justifiably appropriate in comparison to wider workforce or rationale for exception increases is not fully disclosed (United Kingdom)
|
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote on a case-by-case
basis on bonus payments to executive directors or senior management; however, Putnam will vote against payments
that include outsiders or independent statutory auditors. |
Matters Relating to Board of Directors
Uncontested Board Elections
Asia: China, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Philippines, Taiwan
and Thailand
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote against
the entire board of directors if |
|
· |
fewer than one-third of the directors
are independent directors, or |
|
· |
the board has not established
audit, compensation and nominating committees each composed of a majority of independent directors, or |
|
· |
the chair of the audit, compensation
or nominating committee is not an independent director. |
Commentary: Companies listed in China (or dual-listed in China and Hong
Kong) often have a separate supervisory committee in addition to a standard board of directors containing audit, compensation, and nominating
committees. The supervisory committee provides oversight of the financial affairs of the company and supervises members of the board and
management, while the board of directors makes decisions related to the company's business and investment strategies. The supervisory
committee normally comprises employee representatives and shareholder representatives. Shareholder representatives are elected by shareholders
of the company while employee representatives are elected by the company's staff. Shareholder representatives may be independent or may
be affiliated with the company or its substantial shareholders. Current laws and regulations neither provide a basis for evaluation of
supervisor independence nor do they require a supervisor to be independent.
|
Ø |
Putnam will generally vote in
favor of nominees to the Supervisory Committee |
Australia
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote against
the entire board of directors if |
|
· |
fewer than a majority of the directors
are independent, or |
|
· |
the board has not established
an audit committee composed solely of non-executive directors, a majority of whom, including the chair of the committee (who should not
be the board chair), should be independent directors, or |
|
· |
the board has not established
nominating and compensation committees each composed of a majority of independent, non-executive directors, with an independent chair. |
Brazil
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote against
proposals requesting cumulative voting unless there are more candidates than number of seats available, in which case vote for. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote for
proposals for the proportional allocation of cumulative votes if Putnam is supporting the entire slate of nominees. Putnam will vote against
such proposals if Putnam is not supporting the entire slate. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will abstain
on individual director allocation proposals if Putnam is voting for the proportional allocation of cumulative votes. Putnam will vote
on a case-by-case basis on individual director allocation proposals if Putnam is voting against the proportional allocation
of votes. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote for
proposals to cumulate votes of common and preferred shareholders if the nominees are known and Putnam is supporting the applicable nominees;
Putnam will vote against such proposals if Putnam is not supporting the known nominees, or if the nominees are unknown. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will generally vote against
proposals seeking the recasting of votes for amended slate (as new candidates could be included in the amended slate without prior disclosure
to shareholders). |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote against
proposals regarding instructions if meeting is held on second call if election of directors is part of the recasting as the slate can
be amended without (prior) disclosure to shareholders. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote against
proposals regarding the casting of minority votes to the candidate with largest number of votes. |
Canada
Canadian corporate governance requirements mirror corporate governance reforms
that have been adopted by the NYSE and other U.S. national securities exchanges and stock markets. As a result, Putnam will vote on matters
relating to the board of directors of Canadian issuers in accordance with the guidelines applicable to U.S. issuers.
Commentary: Like the UK’s Combined Code on Corporate Governance,
the policies on corporate governance issued by Canadian securities regulators embody the “comply and explain” approach to
corporate governance. Because Putnam believes that the board independence standards contained in the proxy voting guidelines are integral
to the protection of investors in Canadian companies, these standards will be applied in a prescriptive manner.
Continental Europe (ex-Germany)
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote against the
entire board of directors if |
|
· |
fewer than a majority of the directors
are independent directors, or |
|
· |
the board has not established
audit, nominating and compensation committees each composed of a majority of independent directors. |
Commentary: An “independent director” under the
European Commission’s guidelines is one who is free of any business, family or other relationship, with the company, its controlling
shareholder or the management of either, that creates a conflict of interest such as to impair his judgment. A “non-executive director”
is one who is not engaged in the daily management of the company.
In France, Employee Representatives are employed by the company and represent
rank and file employees. These representatives are elected by company employees. The law also provides for the appointment of employee
shareholder representatives, if the employee shareholdings exceed 3% of the share capital. Employee shareholder representatives are elected
by the company’s shareholders (via general meeting).
Germany
|
Ø |
For companies subject to “co-determination,”
Putnam will vote for the election of nominees to the supervisory board, except: |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote against
the Supervisory Board if |
|
Ø |
the board has not established
an audit committee comprising an Independent chair. |
|
Ø |
the audit committee chair serves
as board chair. |
|
Ø |
the board contains more than two
former management board members. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote against
the election of a former member of the company’s managerial board to chair of the supervisory board. |
Commentary: German corporate governance is characterized by a two-tier
board system - a managerial board composed of the company’s executive officers, and a supervisory board. The supervisory board appoints
the members of the managerial board. Shareholders elect members of the supervisory board, except that in the case of companies with a
large number of employees, company employees are allowed to elect some of the supervisory board members (one-half of supervisory board
members are elected by company employees at companies with more than 2,000 employees; one-third of the supervisory board members are elected
by company employees at companies with more than 500 employees but fewer than 2,000). This practice is known as co-determination.
Israel
Non-Controlled Banks: Director elections at Non-Controlled
banks are overseen by the Supervisor of the Banks and nominees for election as "other" (non-external) directors and external
directors (under Companies Law and Directive 301) are put forward by an external and independent committee. As such,
|
Ø |
Putnam’s guidelines regarding
board Nominating Committees will not apply |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote on a case-by-case
on nominees when there are more nominees than seats available. |
Italy
Election of directors and statutory auditors:
|
Ø |
Putnam will apply the director
guidelines to the majority shareholder supported list and vote accordingly (for or against) if multiple lists
of director candidates are presented. If there is no majority shareholder supported slate of nominees, Putnam will support the shareholder
slate of nominees that is recommended for approval by Putnam’s service provider. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote against
the entire list of director nominees if the list is bundled as one proposal and if Putnam would otherwise be voting against any one director
nominee. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will generally vote for
the majority shareholder supported list of statutory auditor nominees. |
Note: Pursuant to Italian law, directors and statutory auditors are elected
through a slate voting system whereby candidates are presented in lists submitted by shareholders representing a minimum percentage of
share capital.
|
Ø |
Putnam will withhold votes from
any director not identified in the proxy materials. (Example: Co-opted director nominees.) |
Japan
|
Ø |
For companies that have established
a U.S.-style corporate governance structure, Putnam will withhold votes from the entire board of directors if: |
|
· |
the board does not have a majority
of outside directors, |
|
· |
the board has not established
nominating and compensation committees composed of a majority of outside directors, |
|
· |
the board has not established
an audit committee composed of a majority of independent directors, or |
|
· |
the board does not have at least
two independent directors for companies with a controlling shareholder. |
|
Ø |
For companies that have established
a statutory auditor board structure: |
|
· |
Putnam will withhold votes
from the appointment of members of a company’s board of statutory auditors if a majority of the members of the board of statutory
auditors is not independent. |
|
Ø |
For companies that have established
a statutory auditor board structure, Putnam will withhold votes from the entire board of directors if: |
|
· |
the board does not have at least
two outside directors, or |
|
· |
the board does not have at least
two independent directors for companies with a controlling shareholder. |
|
· |
Putnam will vote against
any statutory auditor nominee who attends fewer than 75% of board and committee meeting without valid reasons for the absences (i.e.,
illness, personal emergency, etc.) (Note that Corporate Law requires disclosure of outsiders' attendance but not that of insiders, who
are presumed to have no more important time commitments.) |
|
Ø |
For companies that have established
an audit committee board structure (one-tier / one committee), Putnam will withhold votes from the entire board of directors
if: |
|
· |
the board does not have at least
two outside directors, |
|
· |
the board does not have at least
two independent directors for companies with a controlling shareholder, or |
|
· |
the board has not established
an audit committee composed of a majority of independent directors |
Election of Executive Director and Election of Supervisory
Director – REIT
REITs have a unique two-tier board structure with generally one
or more executive directors and two or more supervisory directors. The number of supervisory directors must be greater than, not equal
to, the number of executive directors. Shareholders are asked to vote on both types of directors. Putnam will vote as follows, provided
each board of executive / supervisory directors meets legal requirements.
|
Ø |
Putnam will generally vote for
the election of Executive Director |
|
Ø |
Putnam will generally vote for
the election of Supervisory Directors |
Commentary:
Definition of outside director and independent director:
The Japanese Companies Act focuses on two director classifications: Insider
or Outsider. An outside director is a director who is not a director, executive, executive director, or employee of the company or its
parent company, subsidiaries or affiliates. Further, a director, executive, executive director or employee, who have executive responsibilities,
of the company or subsidiaries can regain eligibility ten years after his or her resignation, provided certain other requirements are
met. An outside director is designated as an “independent” director based on the Tokyo Stock Exchange listing rules. An outside
director is “independent” if that person can make decisions completely independent from the managers of the company, its parent,
subsidiaries, or affiliates and does not have a material relationship with the company (i.e., major client, trading partner, or other
business relationship; familial relationship with current director or executive; etc.).
The guidelines have incorporated these definitions in applying the board
independence standards above.
Korea
Putnam will withhold votes from the entire board of directors
if:
|
· |
For large companies (i.e., those
with assets of at least KRW 2 trillion); the board does not have at least three independent directors or less than a majority of directors
are independent directors, |
|
· |
For small companies (i.e., those
with assets of less than KRW 2 trillion), fewer than one-fourth of the directors are independent directors, |
|
· |
The board has not established
a nominating committee with at least half of the members being outside directors, or |
|
· |
the board has not established
an audit committee composed of at least three members and in which at least two-thirds of its members are independent directors. |
Commentary: For purposes of these guidelines, an “outside director”
is a director who is independent from the management or controlling shareholders of the company and holds no interests that might impair
performing his or her duties impartially from the company, management or controlling shareholder. In determining whether a director is
an outside director, Putnam will also apply the standards included in Article 382 of the Korean Commercial Act, i.e., no employment
relationship with the company for a period of two years before serving on the committee, no director or employment relationship with the
company’s largest shareholder, etc.) and may consider other business relationships that would affect the independence of an outside
director.
|
Ø |
Putnam will generally vote for
proposals to amend the Executive Officer Retirement Allowance Policy unless the recipients of the grants include non-executives; the proposal
would have a negative impact on shareholders, or the proposal appear to be outside of normal market practice, in which case Putnam will
vote against. |

an audit committee with all members being independent directors, including the committee chair, |
|
· |

the board has not established
a compensation committee with all members being non-executive directors, a majority of whom are independent; the board chair should
not serve as a member of the remuneration committee. |

Russia

Ø |
Putnam will vote on a case-by-case
basis for the election of nominees to the board of directors. |
Commentary: In Russia, director elections are handled through a cumulative
voting process. Cumulative voting allows shareholders to cast all of their votes for a single nominee for the board of directors, or to
allocate their votes among nominees in any other way. In contrast, in “regular” voting, shareholders may not give more than
one vote per share to any single nominee. Cumulative voting can help to strengthen the ability of minority shareholders to elect a director.

Ø |
Putnam will vote against
from the entire board of directors if |
|
· |
in the case of a board with an
independent director serving as chair, fewer than one-third of the directors are independent directors; or, in the case of a board not
chaired by an independent director, fewer than half of the directors are independent directors, |
|
· |
the board has not established
audit and compensation committees, each with an independent director serving as chair, with at least a majority of the members being independent
directors, and with all of the directors being non-executive directors, or |

the board has not established
a nominating committee, with an independent director serving as chair, and with at least a majority of the members being independent directors. |
United Kingdom, Ireland
Commentary:
Application of guidelines: Although the Combined Code has adopted
the “comply and explain” approach to corporate governance, Putnam believes that the guidelines discussed above with respect
to board independence standards are integral to the protection of investors in UK companies. As a result, these guidelines will be applied
in a prescriptive manner.
Definition of independence: For the purposes of these guidelines,
a non-executive director shall be considered independent if the director meets the independence standards in section A.3.1 of the Combined
Code (i.e., no material business or employment relationships with the company, no remuneration from the company for non-board services,
no close family ties with senior employees or directors of the company, etc.), except that Putnam does not view service on the board for
more than nine years as affecting a director’s independence.
Smaller companies: A smaller company is one that is below the FTSE
350 throughout the year immediately prior to the reporting year.
|
Ø |
Putnam will withhold votes
from the entire board of directors if: |
|
· |
the board, excluding the Non-Executive
Chair, is not comprised of at least half independent non-executive directors, |
|
· |
the board has not established
a Nomination committee composed of a majority of independent non-executive directors, excluding the Non-Executive Chair, or |
|
· |
the board has not established
a Compensation committee composed of (1) at least three directors (in the case of smaller companies, as defined by the Combined Code,
two directors) and (2) solely of independent non-executive directors. The company chair may be a member of, but not chair, the Committee
provided he or she was considered independent on appointment as chair, or |
|
· |
The board has not established
an Audit Committee composed of, (1) at least three directors (in the case of smaller companies as defined by the Combined Code, two directors)
and (2) solely of independent non-executive directors. The board chair may not serve on the audit committee of large or small companies.

All other jurisdictions

Ø |
In the absence of jurisdiction
specific guidelines, Putnam will vote as follows for boards/supervisory boards: |

Ø |
Putnam will vote against
the entire board of directors if |
|

fewer than a majority of the directors
are independent directors, or |
|
· |
the board has not established
audit, nominating and compensation committees each composed of a majority of independent directors. |
Additional Commentary regarding all Non-US jurisdictions:
Whether a director is considered “independent” or not will be
determined by reference to local corporate law or listing standards.
Some jurisdictions may legally require or allow companies to have a certain
number of employee representatives, employee shareholder representatives (e.g., France) and/or shareholder representatives on their board.
Putnam generally does not consider these representatives independent. The presence of employee representatives or employee shareholder
representatives on the board and key committees is generally legally mandated. In most markets, shareholders do not have the ability to
vote on the election of employee representatives or employee shareholder representatives. In some markets, significant shareholders have
a legal right to nominate shareholder representatives. Shareholders are required to approve the election of shareholder representatives
to the board. Unlike employee representatives, there are no legal requirements regarding the presence of shareholder representatives on
the board or its committees.
|
Ø |
Putnam will not include
employee or employee shareholder representatives in the independence calculation of the board or key committees, nor in the calculation
of the size of the board. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will include
shareholder representatives in the independence calculation of the board and key committees, and in the calculation of the size of the

|
Ø |
Putnam will generally support
shareholder or employee representatives if included in the agenda Putnam will vote on a case-by-case basis when there are
more candidates than seats. Additionally, Putnam will vote against such nominees when there is insufficient information
disclosed. |
|
Ø |
Putnam Investments’ policies
regarding the provision of professional services and transactional relationship with regard to directors will apply. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote for
independent nominees for alternate director, unless such nominees do not meet Putnam’s individual director standards. |
Shareholder nominated directors/self-nominated directors
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote against
shareholder nominees if Putnam supports the board of directors. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote on a case-by
case basis if Putnam will be voting against the current board. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote on a case-by-case
basis if the proposal regarding a self-nominated/shareholder nominated director nominee would add an additional seat to the board if the
nominee is approved. |
Other Business Matters
Japan
|
Ø |
The Japanese Companies Act gives
companies the option to adopt a U.S.-Style corporate structure (i.e., a board of directors and audit, nominating, and compensation committees).
Putnam will vote for proposals to amend a company’s articles of incorporation to adopt the U.S.-Style “Board
with Committees” structure. However, the independence of the outside directors is critical to effective corporate governance under
this new system. Putnam will, therefore, scrutinize the backgrounds of the outside director nominees at such companies, and will vote
against the amendment where Putnam believes the board lacks the necessary level of independence from the company or a substantial
shareholder. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote on a case-by-case
basis on granting the board the authority to repurchase shares at its discretion. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote against
amendments to delete a requirement directing the company to reduce authorized capital by the number of treasury shares cancelled. If issued
share capital decreases while authorized capital remains unchanged, then the company will have greater leeway to issue new shares (for
example as a private placement or a takeover defense). |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote against
proposals to authorize appointment of special directors. Under the new Corporate Law, companies are allowed to appoint, from among their
directors, "special directors" who will be authorized to make decisions regarding the purchase or sale of important assets and
major borrowing or lending, on condition that the board has at least six directors, including at least one non-executive director. At
least three special directors must participate in the decision-making process and decisions shall be made by a majority vote of the special
directors. However, the law does not require any of the special directors to be non-executives, so in effect companies may use this mechanism
to bypass outsiders. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will generally vote for
proposals to create new class of shares or to conduct a share consolidation of outstanding shares to squeeze out minority shareholders.
|
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote against
proposals seeking to enable companies to establish specific rules governing the exercise of shareholder rights. (Note: Such as, shareholders'
right to submit shareholder proposals or call special meetings.) |
B. Compensation Related Matters
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote against
option plans which allow the grant of options to suppliers, customers, and other outsiders. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote against
stock option grants to independent internal statutory auditors. The granting of stock options to internal auditors, at the discretion
of the directors, can compromise the independence of the auditors and provide incentives to ignore accounting problems, which could affect
the stock price over the long term. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote against
the payment of retirement bonuses to directors and statutory auditors when one or more of the individuals to whom the grants are being
proposed has not served in an executive capacity for the company. Putnam will also vote against payment of retirement bonuses
to any directors or statutory auditors who have been designated by the company as independent. Retirement bonus proposals are all-or-nothing,
meaning that split votes against individual payments cannot be made. If any one individual does not meet Putnam’s criteria, Putnam
will vote against the entire bundled item. |
C. Other Business Matters
|
Ø |
Putnam votes for
mergers by absorptions of wholly-owned subsidiaries by their parent companies. These deals do not require the issuance of shares, and
do not result in any dilution or new obligations for shareholders of the parent company. These transactions are routine. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote for
the acquisition if it is between parent and wholly-owned subsidiary. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote for
the formation of a holding company, if routine. Holding companies are once again legal in Japan and a number of companies, large and small,
have sought approval to adopt a holding company structure. Most of the proposals are intended to help clarify operational authority for
the different business areas in which the company is engaged and promote effective allocation of corporate resources. As most of the reorganization
proposals do not entail any share issuances or any change in shareholders’ ultimate ownership interest in the operating units, Putnam
will treat most such proposals as routine. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote against
proposals that authorize the board to vary the AGM record date. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote for
proposals to abolish the retirement bonus system |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote for
board-approved director/officer indemnification proposals |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote on a case-by-case
basis on private placements (Third-party share issuances). Where Putnam views the share issuance necessary to avoid bankruptcy or to put
the company back on solid financial footing, Putnam will generally vote for. When a private placement allows a particular
shareholder to obtain a controlling stake in the company at a discount to market prices, or where the private placement otherwise disadvantages
ordinary shareholders, Putnam will vote against. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will generally vote against
shareholder rights plans (poison pills). However, if all of the following criteria are met, Putnam will evaluate such poison pills on
a case-by-case basis: |
|
1) |
The poison pill must have a duration
of no more than three years. |
|
2) |
The trigger threshold must be
no less than 20 percent of issued capital. |
|
3) |
The company must have no other
types of takeover defenses in place. |
|
4) |
The company must establish a committee
to evaluate any takeover offers, and the members of that committee must all meet Putnam’s' definition of independence. |
|
5) |
At least 20 percent, and no fewer
than two, of the directors must meet Putnam’s definition of independence. These independent directors must also meet Putnam’s
guidelines on board meeting attendance. |
|
6) |
The directors must stand for reelection
on an annual basis. |
|
7) |
The company must release its proxy
materials no less than three weeks before the meeting date. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote against
proposals to allow the board to decide on income allocation without shareholder vote. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote against
proposals to limit the liability of External Audit Firms (“Accounting Auditors”) |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote against
proposals seeking a reduction in board size that eliminates all vacant seats. |
|
Ø |
Putnam may generally vote against
proposals seeking an increase in authorized capital that leaves the company with as little as 25 percent of the authorized capital outstanding
(general request). However, such proposals will be evaluated on a company specific basis, taking into consideration such factors as current
authorization outstanding, existence (or lack thereof) of preemptive rights and rationale for the increase. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote for
corporate split agreement and transfer of sales operations to newly created wholly-owned subsidiaries where the transaction is a purely
internal one which does not affect shareholders' ownership interests in the various operations. All other proposals will be referred back
to Putnam for case-by-case review. These reorganizations usually accompany the switch to a holding company structure, but
may be used in other contexts. |
United Kingdom
|
Ø |
Putnam will not apply the U.S.
standard 15% discount cap for employee share purchase schemes at U.K. companies. As such, Putnam will generally vote for
‘Save-As-You-Earn’ schemes in the U.K which allow for no more than a 20% purchase discount, and which otherwise comply with
U.K. law and Putnam standards. |
France
|
Ø |
Putnam will not apply the U.S.
standard 15% discount cap for employee share purchase schemes at French companies. As such, Putnam will generally vote for
employee share purchase schemes in France that allow for no greater than a 30% purchase discount, or 40% purchase discount if the vesting
period is equal to or greater than ten years, and which otherwise comply with French law and Putnam standards. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will generally vote for
the Remuneration Report (established based on SRD II), however Putnam will vote on a case-by-case basis when Putnam is voting
against both the ex-Post Remuneration Report (CEO) and ex-Ante Remuneration Policy (CEO, or proposal including CEO remuneration package)
in the current year, and Putnam’s third party service provider(s) is recommending a vote against. |
Canada
|
Ø |
Putnam will generally vote for
Advance Notice provisions for submitting director nominations not less than 30 days prior to the date of the annual meeting. For Advance
Notice provisions where the minimum number of days to submit a shareholder nominee is less than 30 days prior to the meeting date, Putnam
will vote on a case-by-case basis. Putnam will also vote on a case-by-case basis if the company's policy expressly
prohibits the commencement of a new notice period in the event the originally scheduled meeting is adjourned or postponed. |
Hong Kong
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote for
proposals to approve a general mandate permitting the company to engage in non-pro rata share issuances of up to 20% of total equity in
a year if the company’s board meets Putnam’s independence standards; if the company’s board does not meet Putnam’s
independence standards, then Putnam will vote against these proposals. |
Additionally, Putnam will vote for proposals to approve
the reissuance of shares acquired by the company under a share repurchase program, provided that: (1) Putnam supported (or would have
supported, in accordance with these guidelines) the share repurchase program, (2) the reissued shares represent no more than 10% of the
company’s outstanding shares (measured immediately before the reissuance), and (3) the reissued shares are sold for no less than
85% of current market value.
This policy supplements policies regarding share issuances as stated above
under section
III. Voting Shares of Non-US Issuers.
Taiwan
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote against
proposals to release the board of directors from the non-compete restrictions specified in Taiwanese Company Law. However, Putnam will
vote for such proposals if the directors are engaged in activities with a wholly- owned subsidiary of the company. |
Australia
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote for
proposals to carve out, from the general cap on non-pro rata share issues of 15% of total equity in a rolling 12-month period, a particular
proposed issue of shares or a particular issue of shares made previously within the 12-month period, if the company’s board meets
Putnam’s independence standards; if the company’s board does not meet Putnam’s independence standards, then Putnam will
vote against these proposals. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote for proposals
renewing partial takeover provisions. |
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote on a case-by-case
basis on Board-Spill proposals. |
Turkey
|
Ø |
Putnam will vote on a case-by-case
basis on proposals involving related party transactions. However, Putnam will vote against when such proposals do not provide
information on the specific transaction(s) to be entered into with the board members or executives. |

Potential conflicts of interest in managing multiple accounts. Like
other investment professionals with multiple clients, the fund’s Portfolio Managers may face certain potential conflicts of interest
in connection with managing both the fund and the other accounts listed under “Other Accounts Managed by the Fund’s Portfolio
Managers” at the same time. The paragraphs below describe some of these potential conflicts, which the investment manager believes
are faced by investment professionals at most major financial firms. As described below, the investment manager and the Trustees of the
Putnam funds have adopted compliance policies and procedures that attempt to address certain of these potential conflicts.
The management of accounts with different advisory fee rates and/or fee
structures, including accounts that pay advisory fees based on account performance (“performance fee accounts”), may raise
potential conflicts of interest by creating an incentive to favor higher-fee accounts. These potential conflicts may include, among others:
|
· |
The most attractive investments
could be allocated to higher-fee accounts or performance fee accounts. |
|
· |
The trading of higher-fee accounts
could be favored as to timing and/or execution price. For example, higher-fee accounts could be permitted to sell securities earlier than
other accounts when a prompt sale is desirable or to buy securities at an earlier and more opportune time. |
|
· |
The trading of other accounts
could be used to benefit higher-fee accounts (front- running). |
|
· |
The investment management team
could focus their time and efforts primarily on higher-fee accounts due to a personal stake in compensation. |
The investment manager attempts to address these potential conflicts of
interest relating to higher-fee accounts through various compliance policies that are generally intended to place all accounts, regardless
of fee structure, on the same footing for investment management purposes. For example, under the investment manager’s policies:
|
· |
Performance fee accounts must
be included in all standard trading and allocation procedures with all other accounts. |
|
· |
All accounts must be allocated
to a specific category of account and trade in parallel with allocations of similar accounts based on the procedures generally applicable
to all accounts in those groups (e.g., based on relative risk budgets of accounts). |
|
· |
All trading must be effected through
Putnam’s trading desks and normal queues and procedures must be followed (i.e., no special treatment is permitted for performance
fee accounts or higher-fee accounts based on account fee structure). |
|
· |
Front running is strictly prohibited. |
|
· |
The fund’s Portfolio Manager(s)
may not be guaranteed or specifically allocated any portion of a performance fee. |
As part of these policies, the investment manager has also implemented trade
oversight and review procedures in order to monitor whether particular accounts (including higher-fee accounts or performance fee accounts)
are being favored over time.
Potential conflicts of interest may also arise when the Portfolio Manager(s)
have personal investments in other accounts that may create an incentive to favor those accounts. As a general matter and subject to limited
exceptions, the investment managers investment professionals do not have the opportunity to invest in client accounts, other than the
Putnam funds. However, in the ordinary course of business, the investment manager or related persons may from time to time establish “pilot”
or “incubator” funds for the purpose of testing proposed investment strategies and products prior to offering them to clients.
These pilot accounts may be in the form of registered investment companies, private funds such as partnerships or separate accounts established
by Putnam Management or an affiliate. The investment manager or an affiliate supplies the funding for these accounts. Putnam employees,
including the fund’s Portfolio Manager(s), may also invest in certain pilot accounts. The investment manager, and to the extent
applicable, the Portfolio Manager(s) will benefit from the favorable investment performance of those funds and accounts. Pilot funds and
accounts may, and frequently do,
invest in the same securities as the client accounts. t\The investment manager
policy is to treat pilot accounts in the same manner as client accounts for purposes of trading allocation – neither favoring nor
disfavoring them except as is legally required. For example, pilot accounts are normally included in the investment managers daily block
trades to the same extent as client accounts (except that pilot accounts do not participate in initial public offerings).
A potential conflict of interest may arise when the fund and other accounts
purchase or sell the same securities. On occasions when the Portfolio Manager(s) consider the purchase or sale of a security to be in
the best interests of the fund as well as other accounts, the investment managers trading desk may, to the extent permitted by applicable
laws and regulations, aggregate the securities to be sold or purchased in order to obtain the best execution and lower brokerage commissions,
if any. Aggregation of trades may create the potential for unfairness to the fund or another account if one account is favored over another
in allocating the securities purchased or sold – for example, by allocating a disproportionate amount of a security that is likely
to increase in value to a favored account. The investment manager trade allocation policies generally provide that each day’s transactions
in securities that are purchased or sold by multiple accounts are, insofar as possible, averaged as to price and allocated between such
accounts (including the fund) in a manner which in Franklin Advisers opinion is equitable to each account and in accordance with the amount
being purchased or sold by each account. Certain exceptions exist for specialty, regional or sector accounts. Trade allocations are reviewed
on a periodic basis as part of the investment managers trade oversight procedures in an attempt to ensure fairness over time across accounts.
“Cross trades,” in which one Putnam account sells a particular
security to another account (potentially saving transaction costs for both accounts), may also pose a potential conflict of interest.
Cross trades may be seen to involve a potential conflict of interest if, for example, one account is permitted to sell a security to another
account at a higher price than an independent third party would pay, or if such trades result in more attractive investments being allocated
to higher-fee accounts. The investment manager and the fund’s Trustees have adopted compliance procedures that provide that any
transactions between the fund and another Putnam-advised account are to be made at an independent current market price, as required by
law.
Another potential conflict of interest may arise based on the different
investment objectives and strategies of the fund and other accounts. For example, another account may have a shorter-term investment horizon
or different investment objectives, policies or restrictions than the fund. Depending on another account’s objectives or other factors,
the Portfolio Manager(s) may give advice and make decisions that may differ from advice given, or the timing or nature of decisions made,
with respect to the fund. In addition, investment decisions are the product of many factors in addition to basic suitability for the particular
account involved. Thus, a particular security may be bought or sold for certain accounts even though it could have been bought or sold
for other accounts at the same time. More rarely, a particular security may be bought for one or more accounts managed by the Portfolio
Manager(s) when one or more other accounts are selling the security (including short sales). There may be circumstances when purchases
or sales of portfolio securities for one or more accounts may have an adverse
effect on other accounts. As noted above, the investment manager has implemented
trade oversight and review procedures to monitor whether any account is systematically favored over time.
The fund’s Portfolio Manager(s) may also face other potential conflicts
of interest in managing the fund, and the description above is not a complete description of every conflict that could be deemed to exist
in managing both the fund and other accounts.
(a)(3) Compensation of portfolio managers. Portfolio managers are
evaluated and compensated across the group of specified products they manage, in part, based on their performance relative to peers or
performance ahead of the applicable benchmark, depending on the product, based on a blend of 3-year and 5-year performance. In addition,
evaluations take into account individual contributions and a subjective component.
Each portfolio manager is assigned an industry-competitive incentive compensation
target consistent with this goal and evaluation framework. Actual incentive compensation may be higher or lower than the target, based
on group, individual, and subjective performance, and may also reflect the performance of Putnam as a firm.
Incentive compensation includes a cash bonus and may also include grants
of deferred cash, stock or options. In addition to incentive compensation, portfolio managers receive fixed annual salaries typically
based on level of responsibility and experience.
For Putnam Managed Municipal Income Trust and Putnam Municipal Opportunities
Trust, Franklin evaluates performance based on the fund’s peer ranking in the fund’s Lipper category. This peer ranking is
based on pre-tax performance.
For Putnam Master Intermediate Income Trust and Putnam Premier Income Trust,
Putnam evaluates performance based on the peer ranking of related products managed by the investment manager with similar strategies in
those products’ Lipper categories. This peer ranking is based on pre-tax performance.
One or more of the portfolio managers of Putnam Master Intermediate Income
Trust and Putnam Premier Income Trust receive a portion of the performance fee payable by a private fund managed by Putnam (the “Private
Fund”) in connection with their service as members of the Private Fund portfolio management team. See “Other Accounts Managed
by the Fund’s Portfolio Managers—Potential conflicts of interest in managing multiple accounts” in (a)(2) above for
information on how the investment manager addresses potential conflicts of interest resulting from an individual’s management of
more than one account.
(a)(4) Fund ownership. The following table shows the dollar ranges
of shares of the fund owned by the professionals listed above at the end of the fund’s last two fiscal years, including investments
by their immediate family members and amounts invested through retirement and deferred compensation plans.
