OFFICER EX-99 3 perclass007.txt 007 Putnam Voyager Fund attachment 1/31/04 Semi-annual Putnam Management has agreed to assume certain expenses incurred by the fund in connection with allegations of improper short- term trading activity. During the funds period ended January 31, 2004, legal, shareholder servicing and communication, audit, and Trustee fees incurred by the fund and assumed by Putnam Management were $340,331. Because the electronic format for filing Form N-SAR does not provide adequate space for responding to certain items correctly, the correct answers are as follows: 74U1 (000s omitted) Class A 666,813 Class B 192,236 Class C 8,939 74U2 (000s omitted) Class M 18,696 Class R 5 Class Y 195,144 74V1 Class A 16.19 Class B 14.27 Class C 15.67 74V2 Class M 15.32 Class R 16.16 Class Y 16.67 EX-99 4 legal77e007.txt Putnam Voyager Fund Item 77E attachment 1/31/04 semi-annual Regulatory matters and litigation. On November 13, 2003, Putnam Management agreed to entry of an order by the Securities and Exchange Commission in partial resolution of administrative and cease-and-desist proceedings initiated by the SEC on October 28, 2003 in connection with alleged excessive short-term trading by at least six Putnam Management investment professionals. The SECs findings reflect that four of those employees engaged in such trading in funds over which they had investment decision- making responsibility and had access to non-public information regarding, among other things, current portfolio holdings and valuations. The six individuals are no longer employed by Putnam Management. Under the order, Putnam Management will make restitution for losses attributable to excessive short-term trading by Putnam employees, institute new employee trading restrictions and enhanced employee trading compliance, retain an independent compliance consultant, and take other remedial actions. Putnam Management neither admitted nor denied the orders findings, which included findings that Putnam Management willfully violated provisions of the federal securities laws. A civil monetary penalty and other monetary relief, if any, will be determined at a later date. If a hearing is necessary to determine the amounts of such penalty or other relief, Putnam Management will be precluded from arguing that it did not violate the federal securities laws in the manner described in the SEC order, the findings set forth in the SEC order will be accepted as true by the hearing officer and additional evidence may be presented. Putnam Management, and not the investors in any Putnam fund, will bear all costs, including restitution, civil penalties and associated legal fees. Administrative proceedings instituted by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts on October 28, 2003 against Putnam Management in connection with alleged market timing activities by Putnam employees and by participants in some Putnam-administered 401(k) plans are pending. Putnam Management has committed to make complete restitution for any losses suffered by Putnam shareholders as a result of any improper market-timing activities by Putnam employees or within Putnam-administered 401(k) plans. The SECs and Commonwealths allegations and related matters also serve as the general basis for numerous lawsuits, including purported class action lawsuits filed against Putnam Management and certain related parties, including certain Putnam funds. Putnam Management has agreed to bear any costs incurred by Putnam funds in connection with these lawsuits. Based on currently available information, Putnam Management believes that the likelihood that the pending private lawsuits and purported class action lawsuits will have a material adverse financial impact on the fund is remote, and the pending actions are not likely to materially affect its ability to provide investment management services to its clients, including the Putnam funds. For the period ended January 31, 2004, Putnam Management has assumed $340,331 of legal, shareholder servicing and communication, audit, and Trustee fees incurred by the fund in connection with these matters. Review of these matters by counsel for Putnam Management and by separate independent counsel for the Putnam funds and their independent Trustees is continuing. In addition, Marsh & McLennan Companies, Inc., Putnam Managements parent company, has engaged counsel to conduct a separate review of Putnam Managements policies and controls related to short-term trading. The fund may experience increased redemptions as a result of these matters, which could result in increased transaction costs and operating expenses. -----END PRIVACY-ENHANCED MESSAGE-----
