Regulatory matters and litigation
In late 2003 and 2004, Putnam Management settled charges brought
by the SEC and the Massachusetts Securities Division in
connection with excessive shortterm trading in Putnam funds. In
July 2011, the fund recorded a receivable of $2,358,440 related
to restitution amounts in connection with a distribution plan
approved by the SEC. This amount is reported in the Increase in
capital from settlement payments line on the Statement of changes
in net assets. These allegations and related matters have served
as the general basis for certain lawsuits, including purported
class action lawsuits against Putnam Management and, in a limited
number of cases, some Putnam funds. In May 2011, the fund
received a payment of $56,253 related to settlement of those
lawsuits. This amount is reported in the Increase in capital from
settlement payments line on the Statement of changes in net
assets. Putnam Management has agreed to bear any costs incurred
by the Putnam funds as a result of these matters.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Trustees and Shareholders of Putnam Voyager Fund:
In planning and performing our audit of the financial
statements of Putnam Voyager Fund (the Fund) as of and for the
year ended July 31, 2011, in accordance with the standards of
the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States),
we considered the Funds internal control over financial
reporting, including controls over 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 do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the Funds
internal control over financial reporting.
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 funds 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. A funds internal control over
financial reporting includes those policies and procedures
that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in
reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the
transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company;
(2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are
recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial
statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the fund are
being made only in accordance with authorizations of
management and trustees of the company; and (3) provide
reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection
of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of a funds
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 deficiency in internal control over financial reporting
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 material weakness is a
deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal
control over financial reporting, such that there is a
reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the
Funds annual or interim financial statements will not be
prevented or detected on a timely basis.
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 over financial reporting that might be
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 over safeguarding securities, that we
consider to be material weaknesses as defined above as of July
31, 2011.
This report is intended solely for the information and use of
management and the Board of Trustees of Putnam Voyager Fund
and the Securities and Exchange Commission and is not intended
to be and should not be used by anyone other than these
specified parties.

Additional Information About Minimum Required Investment
Shareholders can open a fund account with as little as $500 and
make subsequent investments in any amount. The minimum investment
is waived if you make regular investments weekly, semimonthly, or
monthly through automatic deductions through your bank checking
or savings account. Currently, Putnam is waiving the minimum, but
reserves the right to reject initial investments under the
minimum.
Item 85B
Additional Information About Errors and Omissions Policy
While no claims with respect to the Registrant/Series were filed
under such policy during the period, requests under such policy
for reimbursement of legal expenses and costs arising out of
claims of market timing activity in the Putnam Funds have been
submitted by the investment manager of the Registrant/Series.
