DISCLOSURE

Investors should carefully consider the Funds investment objectives, risks, charges, and expenses before investing. For this and other information, please call 800.835.3879 or download a free prospectus at www. managersinvest.com. Read it carefully before investing or sending money.
Fixed income funds are subject to the risks associated with investments in debt securities, such as default risk, fluctuations in the debtors perceived ability to pay its creditors. Changing interest rates may adversely affect the value of an investment. An increase in interest rates typically causes the value of bonds and other fixed income securities to fall. The Funds may use derivative instruments for hedging purposes or as part of its investment strategy. There is a risk that a derivative intended as a hedge may not perform as expected. The main risks with derivatives is that some types can amplify a gain or loss, potentially learning or losing substantially more money than the actual cost of the derivative; or that the counterparty may fail to honor its contract terms, causing a loss for the Fund.

Use of these instruments may also involve certain costs and risks such as liquidity risk, interest rate risk, market risk, credit risk, management risk, and the risk that a fund could not close out a position when it would be most advantageous to do so. Many bonds have call provisions which allow the debtors to pay them back before maturity. This is especially true with mortgage securities, which can be paid back anytime. Typically debtors prepay their debt when it is to their advantage (when interest rates drop making a new loan at current rates more attractive), and thus likely to the disadvantage of bondholders, who may have to reinvest prepayment proceeds in securities with lower yields. Prepayment risk will vary depending on the provisions of the security and current interest rates relative to the interest rate of the debt. The Citigroup Mortgage Index includes all outstanding government sponsored fixed-rate mortgage-backed securities, weighted in proportion to their current market capitalization. The BofA Merrill Lynch 6-Month T-Bill Index is an unmanaged index that measures returns of sixmonth Treasury Bills. Unlike the Funds, the Indices are unmanaged, are not available for investment, and do not incur fees.

Funds are distributed by Managers Distributors, Inc., a member of FINRA.
