Fund Objective

The Managers Intermediate Duration Government Fund’s objective is to achieve total return in excess of the total return of the major market indices for mortgage-backed securities.

Fund Strategy

The Managers Intermediate Duration Government Fund seeks to achieve its objective by matching the duration, or interest-rate risk, of a portfolio that invests exclusively in mortgage-backed securities, as weighted in the major market indices for mortgage-backed securities. These indices currently include the Citigroup Mortgage Index and the Lehman Brothers Mortgage Index, each of which includes all outstanding government sponsored fixed-rate mortgage-backed securities, weighted in proportion to their current market capitalization. The duration of these indices is generally similar to that of intermediate-term U.S. Treasury Notes, and typically will range between three and five years.

Under normal circumstances, the Fund will invest at least 80% of its assets in debt securities issued by the U.S. Government, its agencies and instrumentalities, and synthetic instruments or derivatives, or securities having economic characteristics similar to such debt securities. The Fund's benchmark is the Citigroup Mortgage Index.

Fund Facts (as of 6/30/2008)

Disclosure
Investors should carefully consider the fund's investment objectives, risks, charges, and expenses before investing. For this and other information, please call 800.835.3879 or download a free prospectus. Read it carefully before investing or sending money.

The performance shown represents past performance and is not a guarantee of future results. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. From time to time the advisor has waived fees or reimbursed expenses, which may have resulted in higher returns. The listed returns and yields on the Fund are net of expenses and the returns and yields on the indices exclude expenses. Current performance of the Fund may be lower or higher than the performance quoted. Performance data shown is current to the most recent month end.

The Fund is subject to the risks associated with investments in debt securities, such as default risk and fluctuations in the perception of the debtor's ability to pay its creditors.

The Fund 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 risk with derivatives is that some types can amplify a gain or loss, potentially earning 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.

Annual net expense ratio as of the current prospectus dated 05/01/08. The investment manager has contractually agreed, through at least May 1, 2009, to limit Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses (exclusive of taxes, interest, brokerage, acquired fund expenses and extraordinary items) to 0.89% of the Fund's average daily net assets.

Unlike the Fund, the Index is unmanaged, is not available for investment and does not incur expenses. Please see Index Definitions for all our funds' benchmarks.

For each fund with at least a three-year history, Morningstar calculates a Morningstar Rating™ based on a Morningstar Risk-Adjusted Return measure that accounts for variation in a fund’s monthly performance (including the effects of sales charges, loads, and redemption fees), placing more emphasis on downward variations and rewarding consistent performance. The top 10% of funds in each category receive 5 stars, the next 22.5% receive 4 stars, the next 35% receive 3 stars, the next 22.5% receive 2 stars and the bottom 10% receive 1 star. (Each share class is counted as a fraction of one fund within this scale and rated separately, which may cause slight variations in the distribution percentages.) The Overall Morningstar Rating for a fund is derived from a weighted average of the performance figures associated with its three-, five- and ten-year (if applicable) Morningstar Rating metric.

Morningstar Rating is for the share class indicated only (see ticker), other share classes may have different performance characteristics. The Ranking may reflect the waiver of all or a portion of the fund's fees. Without such waiver, the Rankings may have been lower.
