Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance The registrant is not aware of any outstanding report required to be filed pursuant to Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 by any board member or officer. EX-99 3 audit.txt AUDIT Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of Managed High Yield Plus Fund, Inc. In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements of Managed High Yield Plus Fund, Inc. (the Fund) for the year ended May 31, 2006, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), we considered its internal control over financial reporting, including control activities for safeguarding securities, as a basis for designing our auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing our opinion on the financial statements and to comply with the requirements of Form N-SAR, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Funds internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. The management of the Fund is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting. In fulfilling this responsibility, estimates and judgments by management are required to assess the expected benefits and related costs of controls. A companys internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Such internal control includes policies and procedures that provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of a companys assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. A control deficiency exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent or detect misstatements on a timely basis. A significant deficiency is a control deficiency, or combination of control deficiencies, that adversely affects the companys ability to initiate, authorize, record, process or report external financial data reliably in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles such that there is more than a remote likelihood that a misstatement o f the companys annual or interim financial statements that is more than inconsequential will not be prevented or detected. A material weakness is a significant deficiency, or combination of significant deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected. Our consideration of the Funds internal control over financial reporting was for the limited purpose described in the first paragraph and would not necessarily disclose all deficiencies in internal control that might be significant deficiencies or material weaknesses under standards established by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). However, we noted no deficiencies in the Funds internal control over financial reporting and its operation, including controls for safeguarding securities, that we consider to be a material weakness as defined above as of May 31, 2006. This report is intended solely for the information and use of management, the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of Managed High Yield Plus Fund, Inc. and the Securities and Exchange Commission and is not intended to be and should not be used by anyone other than these specified parties.

UBS Global Americas agrees to report to the Fund the results of its evaluation, oversight and monitoring functions and to keep books and records of the Fund in connection therewith. Upon the request of the Board, UBS Global Americas will provide portfolio management services with respect to any portion of the Funds assets for which no Sub-Adviser is responsible.

(b) UBS Global Americas is responsible for informing the Sub-Advisers of the investment objective(s), policies and restrictions of the Fund, for informing or ascertaining that it is aware of other legal and regulatory responsibilities applicable to the Sub-Advisers with respect to the Fund, and for monitoring the Sub-Advisers discharge of their duties; but UBS Global Americas is not responsible for the specific actions (or inactions) of any Sub-Adviser in the performance of the duties assigned to it. (c) With respect to each Sub-Adviser for the Fund, UBS Global Americas shall enter into a contract (Sub-Advisory Agreement) with the Sub-Adviser in substantially the form previously approved by the Board and shall seek approval of the Board or the Funds shareholders in a manner consistent with the 1940 Act, the rules thereunder or any applicable exemptive order.

In no instance will portfolio securities be purchased from or sold to UBS Global Americas, or any affiliated person thereof, except in accordance with the federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder.
