Fund Focus

The Managers Fixed Income Fund seeks current income by investing in a diversified portfolio of fixed income securities.

The Fund invests at least 80% of its assets in investment-grade debt securities (those rated above Ba1/BB+ by Moody's/Standard & Poor's). In addition to investment-grade securities, the Fund may also invest in debt securities issued by any of the following: public and private U.S. companies, foreign companies, the U.S. government and its agencies, such as the Federal Home Loan Bank, state and local governments issuing taxable municipal securities, and foreign governments, their agencies and instrumentalities.

The Fund may also invest in mortgage-backed debt securities, asset-backed debt securities and restricted securities, and may invest up to 15% of its assets in common and preferred stock, convertible securities that an owner has the option to exchange for common stock at a pre-stated price, and debt securities carrying warrants to purchase equity securities. Up to 20% of this mutual fund's assets may be invested in below-investment grade securities (those rated Ba1/BB+ or lower by Moody's/Standard & Poor's).

While the Fund may purchase debt securities of any maturity, it will primarily invest in debt securities with 7- to 15-year maturities.

Disclosure

Investors should carefully consider the Fund's investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses before investing. For this and other information, please call 800.835.3879 or download a free prospectus. Read it carefully before investing or sending money.

The performance shown represents past performance and is not a guarantee of future results. Current performance may be lower or higher than quoted. The investment return and the principal value of an investment will fluctuate so that an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. From time to time the advisor has waived fees or reimbursed expenses, which may have resulted in higher returns. The listed returns and yields on the Fund are net of expenses. Unlike the Fund, the index listed is unmanaged, is not available for investment and does not incur expenses.

Class B shares convert to an equal dollar value of Class A shares at the end of the eighth year after your purchase.

Class C shares convert to an equal dollar value of Class A shares at the end of the tenth year after purchase.

The Fund's investment manager has contractually agreed, through at least May 1, 2013, to limit Fund operating expenses. The net expense ratio reflects this limitation, while the gross expense ratio does not. Please refer to the Fund's prospectus for additional information on the Fund's expenses.

For each fund with at least a three-year history, Morningstar calculates a Morningstar Rating™ based on a Morningstar Risk-Adjusted Return measure that accounts for variation in a fund's monthly performance (including the effects of sales charges, loads, and redemption fees), placing more emphasis on downward variations and rewarding consistent performance. The top 10% of funds in each category receive 5 stars, the next 22.5% receive 4 stars, the next 35% receive 3 stars, the next 22.5% receive 2 stars and the bottom 10% receive 1 star. (Each share class is counted as a fraction of one fund within this scale and rated separately, which may cause slight variations in the distribution percentages.) The Overall Morningstar Rating for a fund is derived from a weighted average of the performance figures associated with its three-, five- and ten-year (if applicable) Morningstar Rating metric.

Morningstar Rating is for the share class indicated only (see ticker), other share classes may have different performance characteristics. The Ranking may reflect the waiver of all or a portion of the fund's fees. Without such waiver, the Rankings may have been lower.
