Management’s Discussion of Fund Performance

2012 in Review

The old adage that markets climb “a wall of worry” was demonstrated by domestic and international stock and bond markets in 2012. Despite signs of below trend economic growth in the U.S., a recession in Europe, and slowing growth in the emerging markets, investors in both stocks and bonds saw positive returns. These positive results were supported by continued aggressive monetary policy worldwide, exemplified by the Federal Reserve’s announcement in December that it would maintain low interest rates as long as unemployment exceeded 6.5% and inflation remained under 2.5%.

Bond investors across the board enjoyed positive returns, with the most conservative short-term government issuance producing minor advances, while riskier long-term and lower-quality bonds produced notably positive results. The bond market was led by the high-yield corporate sector, which tends to move in tandem with the stock markets. The domestic stock market advanced 16.0% in 2012 as measured by the S&P 500. The Barclays High-Yield Bond Index was up 15.8%, the broader Barclay’s Corporate Bond Index advanced 9.8%, while U.S. Treasuries showed a more modest 2.0% gain, as measured by Barclays U.S. Treasury Bond Index.

While investment returns were generally heartening to investors, the journey was uneven. Headlines seemed to provide an endless stream of uncertainties from around the world. The most potent of these influences was the sovereign debt crisis in Europe. Early year optimism over the U.S. economy and European debt crisis took the bellwether 10-year Treasury to a year-high yield of 2.38% in mid-March as investors showed willingness to step away from the safest bonds. This trend ended as worries increased over the possible default of debt by the most economically troubled countries in southern Europe. The ensuing flight to safety drove the yield on the 10-year Treasury to its annual low of 1.39% on July 24th. Confidence in a positive resolution began to subsequently rise, fueled by European Central bank President Mario Draghi’s July statement that he would do “whatever it takes” to hold the Eurozone together. As the year progressed the nation’s attention turned away from Europe to the presidential election and only late in the period did investors begin to focus on the so-called fiscal cliff. The fiscal cliff’s automatic shifts to higher taxes and lower spending were partially fended off with a late December, last-minute compromise. The yield on the 10-year Treasury ended the year at 1.76%, slightly lower than the opening yield for the year, producing Treasury returns that were a bit higher than the coupon return for the annual period.

OUTLOOK

While optimism generally prevailed in 2012, our perspective suggests that the bond market may be overlooking the wide variety of risks that remain unresolved. These include worldwide credit issues, the upcoming battle over the domestic debt ceiling, and the possibility that the Fed’s long-standing policy of aggressive monetary easing may become less accommodative. In addition, the “risk on” trade that prevailed in 2012 has caused many of the investment grade bond sectors to become aggressively priced. Our focus on reducing risk to this investment grade sector should not suggest that we recommend shifting sensible asset allocation strategies. We anticipate the 10-year Treasury yield may fluctuate in a much wider range than experienced in 2012 and volatility will increase. We believe the exceptionally high corporate bond valuations have largely run their course and anticipate increased volatility in 2013 as demand for corporate bonds transitions to more normal levels, especially if investors begin to rebalance their portfolios to a more normal stock allocation. We estimate investment-grade bond returns in 2013 may equal the yield to maturity, and at worst believe a moderate increase in rates could challenge returns in 2013. As a result, we encourage investors to look beyond the broad classification such as “bond” to see what sort of interest-rate and credit risks are in their current bond allocation. Our outlook suggests that risk-averse investors with an interest in capital preservation should focus on higher-quality, and lower to intermediate maturity issues to mitigate the potential damages of rising rates and lower valuations on corporate bonds.

MADISON MOSAIC GOVERNMENT FUND


  FUND-AT-A-GLANCE
   
  Objective: Madison Mosaic Government Fund provides investors with monthly dividends by investing in bonds and other securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government.
   
  Net Assets: $6.1 million
   
  Date of Inception: July 21, 1983
   
  Ticker: MADTX


INVESTMENT STRATEGY HIGHLIGHTS

Madison Government Fund invests primarily in short to intermediate term government and government agency bonds. The fund concentrates on the intermediate portion of the yield curve with a recognition that the intermediate area of the yield curve has offered approximately 90% of the return of the long Treasury with less risk. The fund is actively managed for duration, meaning that when we believe interest rates will fall, we lengthen duration to take advantage of the increased returns that should be available as rates drop. Likewise, we believe when rates appear likely to rise, we shorten portfolio maturities with the goal of limiting potential declines.


PERFORMANCE DISCUSSION

Madison Mosaic Government Fund (Class Y) returned 1.44% for the annual period ended December 31, 2012. This return exceeded the fund’s Morningstar Short Government peer group, which had a category return of 1.06%, but trailed the Barclays Capital Intermediate Government Bond Index, which returned 1.73%. These relative returns against the peer group were primarily driven by the fund’s overweight to spread product (bonds which typically yield more than comparable U.S. Treasuries). The fund had an overweight allocation to mortgage backed securities that performed well in 2012. In addition, the fund was overweight government agencies which added additional yield to the portfolio. The unmanaged Barclays Index, which has no expenses associated with it, held an average duration of 3.62 years at year-end, compared to the fund’s 2.91 years. This was a drag on performance against the Index, as rates fell slightly during the period. As mentioned above, Madison Mosaic Government Fund favored the yield advantage in U.S. Government Agency and Mortgaged Backed bonds throughout the year over Treasury securities. In the end Agencies held a slight outperformance edge over Treasuries as seen by the relative returns of the Barclays Intermediate U.S. Agency Index, which was up 1.78%, while the Barclays Intermediate U.S. Treasury Index advanced 1.71%. The Barclays U.S. Mortgage Backed Securities Index advanced 2.59% for the year. At year-end the Government Bond Fund held 58.2% in U.S. Government agency bonds, 29.9% in Treasuries, 9.4% in mortgage-backed bonds, and 2.5% in cash. The fund was invested in 39 positions and had a 30-day SEC yield of 0.19%.

MADISON MOSAIC CORE BOND FUND


  FUND-AT-A-GLANCE
   
  Objective: Madison Mosaic Core Bond Fund provides relatively higher income by investing in a mix of higher, medium and lower-rated corporate bonds.
   
  Net Assets: $9.3 million
   
  Date of Inception: July 21, 1983
   
  Ticker: MADBX


INVESTMENT STRATEGY HIGHLIGHTS

Madison Core Bond Fund invests primarily in intermediate term corporate, government and mortgage-backed bonds. The fund is actively managed in terms of duration, asset mix and yield curve positioning.


PERFORMANCE DISCUSSION

Mosaic Core Bond Fund (Class Y) rose 2.79% for the year ended December 31, 2012. Over the same period, its Morningstar Intermediate Term Bond Category peer group averaged 7.01%, while the Bank of America Merrill Lynch U.S. Corporate Government & Mortgage Index rose 4.43%. In 2012 long duration bonds outperformed short bonds and riskier junk bonds outperformed high-quality bonds. The fund’s relative performance suffered due to its higher quality bias. With intermediate corporate bonds showing an annual return disparity of 3.2% from top-rated AAA to 18.4% for CAA, and 27.6% for the lowest rated CA-D, quality was the major driver of relative returns. The fund had no exposure to the lowest rated bonds, while having an 82.6% exposure to bonds rated A or higher. This created a performance gap against peers who held a greater exposure to higher-performing junk bonds. A secondary factor was the fund’s shorter duration posture, 4.53 years as compared to the Barclays Index duration of 5.06 years. The duration effect can be seen in these three Morningstar Category bond annual returns: Short-Term 3.67%; Intermediate Term 7.01% and Long-Term 12.97%. In terms of peer performance, one other disadvantage was the fund’s decision to favor industrial corporate bonds over bonds issued by financial firms in a year in which the bonds of credit-sensitive banks had a banner, double-digit year. At year-end, the fund held 48.5% in corporate bonds, 23.4% in Treasuries, 18.4% in mortgage-backed bonds, 4.4% in government agency notes, and 5.3% in cash. The credit quality of its corporate bonds was high, with 51.0% sporting a Standard & Poor’s rating of AAA, 8.5% AA, 23.1% A, 17.4% BBB, with no exposure to lower-rated bonds. The fund ended the period with a 30-day SEC yield of 1.14%.

MADISON MOSAIC INSTITUTIONAL BOND FUND


  FUND-AT-A-GLANCE
   
  Objective: The Madison Mosaic Institutional Bond Fund seeks total investment return through a combination of intermediate corporate and government bonds.
   
  Net Assets: $109.7 million
   
  Date of Inception: May 1, 2000
   
  Ticker: MIIBX


INVESTMENT STRATEGY HIGHLIGHTS

Madison Institutional Bond Fund invests primarily in short to intermediate term government, government agency and investment-grade corporate bonds. The fund concentrates on the intermediate portion of the yield curve with a recognition that the intermediate part of the yield curves historically offers approximately 90% of the return of a 30-year Treasury with less risk. The fund is actively managed for duration, meaning that when we believe interest rates are falling, we lengthen duration to take advantage of the increased returns that should be available as rates drop. Likewise, when we believe that interest rates appear high, we shorten portfolio maturities with the goal of limiting potential declines.


PERFORMANCE DISCUSSION

Madison Mosaic Institutional Bond Fund returned 2.04% for the annual period ended December 31, 2012. Over the same period, its Morningstar peer group in the Short Term Bond category averaged 3.67% while the Barclays Capital Intermediate Government Credit Index returned 3.89%. Over the one-year period the market favored lower-quality issues, while corporate bonds soundly outperformed Treasuries of a similar maturity. With the fund holding about half of its allocation to government bonds, it faced relative performance challenges. The fund finished the year with a duration of 2.85 years, as compared to the Barclays Capital Intermediate Government Credit Index’s 3.89 years. The advantage of longer bonds can clearly be seen in the returns of the various Morningstar category returns: Short-Term Bond 3.67%; Intermediate Term Bond 7.01% and Long-Term Bond 12.97%. We believe that the fund’s conservative, relatively short duration posture was a major disadvantage over this period when compared to our benchmark, and to peers whose duration was closer to the benchmark’s. As of December 31, 2012 Institutional Bond had an asset allocation of 51.3% corporates, 20.5% government agencies, and 24% Treasuries, and a 30-day SEC yield of 0.30%.

INVESTMENT GRADE CORPORATE BOND FUND


  FUND-AT-A-GLANCE
   
  Objective: The Madison Mosaic Investment Grade Corporate Bond Fund provides investors with monthly income by investing in investment grade corporate securities.
   
  Net Assets: $19.8 million
   
  Date of Inception: July 1, 2007
   
  Ticker: COINX


INVESTMENT STRATEGY HIGHLIGHTS

Madison Mosaic Investment Grade Corporate Bond Fund provides investors with regular, monthly income through investments in bonds issued by corporations. The fund will generally invest in corporate securities with an average maturity of 10 years or less. The result is a fund designed for investors who seek regular income from an actively managed bond fund.


PERFORMANCE DISCUSSION

Madison Mosaic Investment Grade Corporate Bond Fund returned 5.72% for the annual period ended December 31, 2012, during a strong year for corporate bonds. Over this same period, the fund’s Morningstar peer group, Intermediate Bond, returned 5.86%, while the Barclays Capital Credit Bond Index returned 8.39%. We believe the main source of underperformance against the Barclays Index was more conservative allocation to financials and the lowest quality tier of the investment grade market. As reported by Barclays, AAA corporate bonds returned 3.2% for the year, while CAA were up 18.4% and CA-D rose 27.6%. With corporate bonds outperforming similar maturity government bonds, we believe the fund’s full exposure to the corporate sector helped it keep up with its broader Morningstar peer group, even though management preferred shorter, more defensive bonds. A secondary factor in our underperformance against the Barclay’s Index was the fund’s shorter maturity stance, with the fund ending the year with a duration of 6.00 years, while the Index was at 7.05 years. At year-end, the fund’s quality exposure according the Standard and Poor’s was 4.5% AAA, 10.7% AA, 41.2% A, and 43.6% BBB. The fund held 65 issues and had a 30-day SEC yield of 1.39%.

Madison Mosaic Income Trust | December 31, 2012

Notes to Financial Statements

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies. Madison Mosaic Income Trust (the “Trust”) is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as an open-end, diversified investment management company. The Trust maintains four separate funds: Madison Mosaic Government Fund, Madison Mosaic Core Bond Fund, Madison Mosaic Institutional Bond Fund and the Madison Mosaic Investment Grade Corporate Bond Fund (collectively, the “Funds”). Each Fund offers Class Y shares and is a diversified mutual fund with its objectives and strategies detailed in its prospectus.

Effective February 29, 2012, the Trust launched an additional share class for the Core Bond Fund. The Class, named R6 shares, are only available to participating retirement plans, corporations and other institutions, such as trusts, endowments and foundations.

Portfolio Valuation: Securities having maturities of 60 days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. Securities having longer maturities, for which quotations are readily available, are valued at the mean between their closing bid and ask prices. Mutual funds are valued at their Net Asset Value. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at their fair value as determined in good faith under procedures approved by the Board of Trustees.

Each Fund has adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) applicable guidance on fair value measurements. Fair value is defined as the price that each Fund would receive upon selling an investment in a timely transaction to an independent buyer in the principal or most advantageous market of the investment. A three-tier hierarchy is used to maximize the use of observable market data “inputs” and minimize the use of unobservable “inputs” and to establish classification of fair value measurements for disclosure purposes. Inputs refer broadly to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk (for example, the risk inherent in a particular valuation technique used to measure fair value including such a pricing model and/or the risk inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique). Inputs may be observable or unobservable.

Observable inputs are inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in the three broad Levels listed below:

Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical investments
   
Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rate volatilities, prepayment speeds, credit risk, benchmark yields, transactions, bids, offers, new issues, spreads and other relationships observed in the markets among comparable securities, underlying equity of the issuer; and proprietary pricing models such as yield measures calculated using factors such as cash flows, financial or collateral performance and other reference data, etc.)
   
Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)

The valuation techniques used by the Funds to measure fair value for the period ended December 31, 2012 maximized the use of observable inputs and minimized the use of unobservable inputs.

The following is a summary of the inputs used as of December 31, 2012 in valuing the Fund’s investments carried at fair value:

Please see the Portfolio of Investments for each Fund for a listing of all securities within each caption.

There were no transfers between classification levels during the period ended December 31, 2012. As of and during the year ended December 31, 2012, none of the Funds held securities deemed as a Level 3.

In May 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2011-04, modifying Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures. At the same time, the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) issued International Financial Reporting Standard (“IFRS”) 13, Fair Value Measurement. The objective by the FASB and IASB is convergence of their guidance on fair value measurements and disclosures. The effective date of the ASU is for Interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. The Funds have adopted the disclosures required by this update.

In December 2011, the IASB and the FASB issued ASU 2011-11 “Disclosures about Offsetting Assets And Liabilities.” These common disclosure requirements are intended to help investors and other financial statement users to better assess the effect or potential effect of offsetting arrangements on a portfolio’s financial position. They also intend to improve transparency in the reporting of how companies mitigate credit risk, including disclosure of related collateral pledged or received. In addition, ASU 2011-11 facilitates comparison between those entities that prepare their financial statements on the basis of U.S. GAAP and those entities that prepare their financial statements on the basis of IFRS. ASU 2011-11 requires entities to disclose both gross and net information about both instruments and transactions eligible for offset in the financial position; and disclose instruments and transactions subject to an agreement similar to a master netting agreement. ASU 2011-11 is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2013, and interim periods within those annual periods. Management is currently evaluating the implications of ASU 2011-11 and its impact on financial statements disclosures.

Investment Transactions: Investment transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. The cost of investments sold is determined on the identified cost basis for financial statement and federal income tax purposes.

Investment Income: Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis. Bond premium is amortized and original issue discount and market discount are accreted over the expected

life of each applicable security using the effective interest method. Other income is accrued as earned.

Distribution of Income and Gains: Distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Net investment income, determined as gross investment income less total expenses, is declared as a regular dividend and distributed to shareholders monthly. Capital gain distributions, if any, are declared and paid annually at year-end.

The tax character of distributions paid during 2012 and 2011 was as follows:

As of December 31, 2012, the components of distributable earnings on a tax basis were as follows:

Government Fund:        
Net unrealized appreciation on investments   $ 172,590  
   
 
    $ 172,590  
   
 
Core Bond Fund:        
Accumulated net realized gains   $ 39,295  
Net unrealized appreciation on investments     456,624  
   
 
    $ 495,919  
   
 
Institutional Bond Fund:        
Accumulated net realized gains   $ 228,456  
Net unrealized appreciation on investments     2,765,210  
   
 
    $ 2,993,666  
   
 
Investment Grade Corporate Bond Fund:        
Accumulated net realized gains   $ 38,804  
Net unrealized appreciation on investments   $ 821,262  
   
 
    $ 860,066  
   
 

Net realized gains or losses may differ for financial and tax reporting purposes as a result of loss deferrals related to wash sales and post-October transactions.

Income Tax: No provision is made for federal income taxes since it is the intention of the Trust to comply with the provisions of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code available to investment companies and to make the requisite distribution to shareholders of taxable income which will be sufficient to relieve it from all or substantially all federal income taxes.

As of and during the year ended December 31, 2012, the Funds did not have a liability for any unrecognized tax benefits. The Funds recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the statement of operations. During the period, the Funds did not incur any interest or penalties.

Tax years open to examination by tax authorities under the statute of limitations include 2009 through 2012.

The Regulated Investment Company (“RIC”) Modernization Act of 2010 (the “Modernization Act”) modernizes several of the federal income and excise tax provisions related to RICs. The Modernization Act contains simplification provisions effective for taxable years beginning after December 22, 2010, which are aimed at preventing disqualification of a RIC for “inadvertent” failures of the asset diversification and/or qualifying income tests. Additionally, the Modernization Act allows capital losses to be carried forward indefinitely, and retain the character of the original loss, exempts RICs from the preferential dividend rule, and repealed the 60-day designation requirement for certain types of pay-through income and gains.

Cash Concentration: At times, the Funds maintain cash balances at financial institutions in excess of federally insured limits. The Funds monitor this credit risk and have not experienced any losses related to this risk.

Use of Estimates: The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions. Such estimates affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

2. Investment Advisory Fees. The investment adviser to the Funds, Madison Investment Advisors, LLC (the

23



Madison Mosaic Income Trust | Notes to Financial Statements | continued

“Adviser”), earned an advisory fee equal to 0.40% per annum of the average net assets of the Government Fund, Core Bond Fund and Investment Grade Corporate Bond Fund and 0.30% per annum for the Institutional Bond Fund. Effective June 29, 2012, 0.10% of this fee for the Government Fund is waived through June 30, 2013.

3. Other Expenses. Under a separate Services Agreement, the Adviser will provide or arrange for each Fund to have all other necessary operational and support services for a fee based on a percentage of average net assets. Through June 28, 2012, this fee for Class Y shares was 0.28% for the Government Fund, 0.30% for the Core Bond Fund, 0.19% for the Institutional Bond Fund and 0.30% for the Investment Grade Corporate Bond Fund. Effective June 29, 2012, these fees were reduced to 0.25% for the Government Fund, 0.25% for the Core Bond Fund and 0.25% for the Investment Grade Corporate Bond Fund. The Institutional Bond Fund’s fee remained the same at 0.19%. The Class R6 shares fees for the Core Bond Fund was 0.02% from inception of those shares through year ended December 31, 2012. The Independent Trustees fees and the expenses of the Funds’ independent registered public accountants are paid out of these fees. These fees are accrued daily and paid monthly.

7. Discussion of Risks. Please see the most current version of each Fund’s prospectus for a discussion of risks associated with investing in the Funds. While investments in stocks and bonds have been keystones in wealth building and management for a hundred years, at times they have produced surprises. Those who enjoyed growth and income of their investments were typically rewarded for the risks they took by investing in the markets. Although the Adviser seeks to appropriately address and manage the risks identified and disclosed to you in connection with the management of the securities in the Funds, you should understand that the very nature of the securities markets includes the possibility that there are additional risks that we did not contemplate for any number of reasons. We seek to identify all applicable risks and then appropriately address them, take appropriate action to reasonably manage them and, of course, to make you aware of them so you can determine if they exceed your risk tolerance. Nevertheless, the often volatile nature of the securities markets and the global economy in which we work suggests that the risk of the unknown is something you must consider in connection with your investments in securities. Unforeseen events could, in a worst-case scenario produce the material loss of the value of some or all of the securities we manage for you in the Funds.

8. Subsequent Events. Management has evaluated the impact of all subsequent events on the Trust through the date the financial statements were available for issue.

At a meeting held on November 6, 2012, the Board of Trustees of the Madison Mosaic Income Trust approved the reorganization of the Madison Mosaic Government Fund, Madison Mosaic Core Bond Fund, Madison Mosaic Institutional Bond Fund and the Madison Mosaic Investment Grade Corporate Bond Fund with and into a corresponding series and class of Madison Funds® (f/k/a MEMBERS® Mutual Funds)(the “Reorganization”). The shareholders of the Madison Mosaic Funds are expected to vote on the proposed Reorganization on March 27, 2013. If approved, it is expected that the Reorganization will occur after the close of business on April 29, 2013. In conjunction with the Reorganization, the Transfer Agent would change from U.S. Bancorp Fund Services, LLC to Boston Financial Data Services, Inc.

No other events have taken place that meet the definition of a subsequent event that requires adjustment to, or disclosure in the financial statements.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Trustees and Shareholders of Madison Mosaic Income Trust

We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the portfolios of investments of the Madison Mosaic Income Trust (the “Trust”), including the Government Fund, Core Bond Fund, Institutional Bond Fund and Investment Grade Corporate Bond Fund (collectively, the “Funds”), as of December 31, 2012 and the related statements of operations for the year then ended and the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Trust’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. The Trust is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Trust’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2012 by correspondence with the Funds’ custodian and brokers. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the Funds constituting the Trust as of December 31, 2012, and the results of their operations for the year then ended and the changes in their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Other Information

Fund Expenses

Example: As a shareholder of the Funds, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs and (2) ongoing costs, including Investment advisory fees and other fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Funds and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. See Notes 3 and 4 above for an explanation of the types of costs charged by the Funds. This Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested on July 1, 2012 and held for the six-months ended December 31, 2012.

Actual Expenses

The table below titled “Based on Actual Total Return” provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information provided in this table, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. To estimate the expenses you paid on your account, divide your ending account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,500 ending account valued divided by $1,000 = 8.5), then multiply the result by the number under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During the Period.”

Based on Actual Total Return1        

  Beginning Ending Annualized Expenses Paid
  Account Value Account Value Expense Ratio During the Period2

Government Fund, Class Y $1,000.00 $1,006.08 0.61% $3.07
Core Bond Fund, Class Y $1,000.00 $1,007.37 0.67% $3.42
Core Bond Fund, Class R6 $1,000.00 $1,008.44 0.44% $3.09
Institutional Bond Fund, Class Y $1,000.00 $1,009.20 0.49% $2.48
Investment Grade Corporate Bond Fund, Class Y $1,000.00 $1,031.70 0.67% $3.47

1For the six-months ended December 31, 2012.
2Expenses are equal to the respective Fund’s annualized expense ratio multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by the number of days in the most recent fiscal half-year, then divided by 366.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The table below titled “Based on Hypothetical Total Return” provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5.00% per year before expenses, which is not any Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use the information provided in this table to compare the ongoing costs of investing in a Fund and other funds. To do so, compare the 5.00% hypothetical example relating to the applicable Fund with the 5.00% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

Discussion of Contract Renewal (Unaudited). The Board reviewed a variety of matters in connection with the renewal of the Trust’s investment advisory contract with the Adviser. The following description of the Board’s considerations summarizes the process:

With regard to the nature, extent and quality of the services to be provided by the Adviser, the Board reviewed the biographies and tenure of the personnel involved in Trust management and the experience of the Adviser and its affiliates as investment manager to other investment companies with similar investment strategies or to individual clients or institutions with similar investment strategies. They recognized the wide array of investment professionals employed by the respective firm or firms. Representatives of the Adviser discussed the firm’s ongoing investment philosophies and strategies intended to provide performance consistent with the Trust portfolio’s investment objectives under various market scenarios. The Trustees also noted their familiarity with the Adviser and its affiliates due to the Adviser’s history of providing advisory services to its proprietary investment company clients.

The Board also discussed the quality of services provided to the Trust by its transfer agent, fund administrator and custodian as well as the various administrative services provided directly by the Adviser. Such services included arranging for third party service providers to provide all necessary administration to Trust portfolios.

With regard to the investment performance of the Trust and the investment adviser, the Board reviewed current performance information provided in the written Board materials. They discussed the reasons for both outperformance and underperformance compared with peer groups and applicable indices and benchmarks. They reviewed both long-term and short-term performance. They also considered whether any relative underperformance was appropriate to the Adviser’s conservative investment philosophy.

A comprehensive discussion of Fund performance and market conditions occurred during the course of the Board’s review. Representatives of the Adviser discussed with the

28



Madison Mosaic Income Trust | Other Information | continued

Board the methodology for arriving at peer groups and indices used for performance comparisons.

With regard to the costs of the services to be provided and the profits to be realized by the investment adviser and its affiliates from the relationship with the Trust, the Board reviewed the expense ratios for a variety of other funds in each Trust portfolio’s peer group with similar investment objectives.

The Board noted that the Adviser or its affiliates provided investment management services to other investment company and/or non-investment company clients and considered the fees charged by the Adviser to such Funds and clients for purposes of determining whether the given advisory fee was disproportionately large under the so-called Gartenberg standard traditionally used by investment company boards in connection with contract renewal considerations. The Board took those fees into account and considered the differences in services and time required by the various types of funds and clients to which the Adviser provided services. The Board recognized that significant differences may exist between the services provided to one type of fund or client and those provided to others, such as those resulting from a greater frequency of shareholder redemptions in a mutual fund and the higher turnover of mutual fund assets. The Board gave such comparisons the weight that they merit in light of the similarities and differences between the services that the various Funds require and were wary of “inapt comparisons.” They considered that, if the services rendered by the Adviser to one type of fund or client differed significantly from others, then the comparison should not be used. In the case of non-investment company clients for which the Adviser may act as either investment adviser or subadviser, the Board noted that the fee may be lower than the fee charged to the Trust. The Board noted too the various administrative, operational, compliance, legal and corporate communication services required to be handled by the Adviser which are performed for investment company clients but are not performed for other institutional clients.

The Trustees reviewed each Fund’s fee structure based on total Fund expense ratio as well as by comparing Fund advisory fees to other Fund advisory fees. The Board noted the simple expense structure maintained by the Trust: an advisory fee and a capped administrative “services” expense. The Board noted the total expense ratios paid by other funds with similar investment objectives, recognizing that such a comparison, while not dispositive, was an important consideration.

The Trustees sought to ensure that fees paid by the Trust were appropriate. The Board reviewed materials demonstrating that although the Adviser is compensated for a variety of the administrative services it provides or arranges to provide to the Trust pursuant to its administrative services agreements with the Trust, such compensation does not always cover all costs due to the cap on administrative expenses. Administrative, operational, compliance and legal fees and costs in excess of the Services Agreement fees are paid by the Adviser from the investment advisory fees earned. In this regard, the Trustees noted that examination of each Trust portfolio’s total expense ratio compared to those of other investment companies was more meaningful than a simple comparison of basic “investment management only” fee schedules.

In reviewing costs and profits, the Board noted that for some smaller portfolios, the salaries of all portfolio management personnel, trading desk personnel, corporate accounting personnel and employees of the Adviser who serve as Trust officers, as well as facility costs (rent), could not be supported by fees received from such portfolios alone. However, the Board recognized that the Trust, as part of a mutual fund family, is profitable to the Adviser because such salaries and fixed costs are already paid in whole or in part from revenue generated by management of other client assets managed by the Adviser. The Trustees noted that total assets managed by the Adviser and its affiliates approximated $16 billion at the time of the meeting. As a result, although the fees paid by each Trust portfolio at its present size might not be sufficient to profitably support a stand-alone fund, the Trust is reasonably profitable to the Adviser as part of its larger, diversified organization. In sum, the Trustees recognized that the Trust is important to the Adviser and is managed with the attention given to its other clients.

With regard to the extent to which economies of scale would be realized as each Trust portfolio grows, the Trustees recognized that at their current sizes, it was premature to discuss any economies of scale not already factored into existing advisory and services agreements. Also, the

29



Madison Mosaic Income Trust | Other Information | concluded

Board recognized that the Adviser recommended that the Board approve a reduction in the services fee paid by the Government, Core Bond and Investment Grade Corporate Bond Funds of the Trust.

During the course of the review, counsel to the Independent Trustees confirmed that the Trusts’ Independent Trustees met previously in executive session and reviewed the written contract renewal materials provided by the Adviser. He noted that the Independent Trustees had considered such materials in light of the aforementioned Gartenberg standards as well as criteria either set forth or discussed in the recent Supreme Court decision in Jones v. Harris regarding the investment company contract renewal process under Section 15(c) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The Independent Trustees made a variety of additional inquiries regarding such written materials to the Adviser and representatives of the Adviser discussed each matter raised.

After further discussion, analysis and review of the totality of the information presented, including the information set forth above and the other information considered by the Board of Trustees, the Trustees, including the Independent Trustees, concluded that the Trusts’ advisory fees are fair and reasonable for each respective portfolio and that renewal of their respective Advisory and Services Agreements are in the best interests of each respective Trust portfolio and its shareholders.
