PROSPECTUS SUMMARY
The following summary is qualified in its entirety by detailed information
appearing elsewhere in this Prospectus and in the Statement of Additional
Information. Cross references in this summary are to headings in the Prospec-
tus. See "Table of Contents."
INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE The Fund is an open-end, diversified, management invest-
ment company whose investment objective is to maximize current interest income
which is excluded from gross income for regular Federal income tax purposes to
the extent consistent with prudent investment management and preservation of
capital. The Fund seeks to achieve its objective by investing in a profession-
ally managed portfolio consisting principally of intermediate- and long-term
municipal securities issued by state or municipal governments and by public
authorities ("Municipal Bonds"). Intermediate- and long-term municipal securi-
ties have remaining maturities at the time of purchase of between three to in
excess of twenty years. Under normal market conditions, the Fund will invest at
least 80% of its total assets in such obligations. See "Investment Objective
and Management Policies."
ALTERNATIVE PURCHASE ARRANGEMENTS The Fund offers several classes of shares
("Classes") to investors designed to provide them with the flexibility of
selecting an investment best suited to their needs. The general public is
offered three Classes of shares: Class A shares, Class B shares and Class C
shares, which differ principally in terms of sales charges and rates of
expenses to which they are subject. A fourth Class of shares, Class Y shares,
is offered only to investors meeting an initial investment minimum of
$5,000,000. See "Purchase of Shares" and "Redemption of Shares."
Class A Shares. Class A shares are sold at net asset value plus an initial
sales charge of up to 4.00% and are subject to an annual service fee of 0.15%
of the average daily net assets of the Class. The initial sales charge may be
reduced or waived for certain purchases. Purchases of Class A shares, which
when combined with current holdings of Class A shares offered with a sales
charge equal or exceed $500,000 in the aggregate, will be made at net asset
value with no initial sales charge, but will be subject to a contingent
deferred sales charge ("CDSC") of 1.00% on redemptions made within 12 months of
purchase. See "Prospectus Summary--Reduced or No Initial Sales Charge."
Class B Shares. Class B shares are offered at net asset value subject to a
maximum CDSC of 4.50% of redemption proceeds, declining by 0.50% the first year
after purchase and by 1.00% each year thereafter to zero. This CDSC
3
<PAGE>
SMITH BARNEY
Managed Municipals Fund Inc.
PROSPECTUS SUMMARY (CONTINUED)
may be waived for certain redemptions. Class B shares are subject to an annual
service fee of 0.15% and an annual distribution fee of 0.50% of the average
daily net assets of the Class. The Class B shares' distribution fee may cause
that Class to have higher expenses and pay lower dividends than Class A
shares.
Class B Shares Conversion Feature. Class B shares will convert automatically
to Class A shares, based on relative net asset value, eight years after the
date of the original purchase. Upon conversion, these shares will no longer be
subject to an annual distribution fee. In addition, a certain portion of Class
B shares that have been acquired through the reinvestment of dividends and
distributions ("Class B Dividend Shares") will be converted at that time. See
"Purchase of Shares--Deferred Sales Charge Alternatives."
Class C Shares. Class C shares are sold at net asset value with no initial
sales charge. They are subject to an annual service fee of 0.15% and an annual
distribution fee of 0.55% of the average daily net assets of the Class, and
investors pay a CDSC of 1.00% if they redeem Class C shares within 12 months
of purchase. The CDSC may be waived for certain redemptions. The Class C
shares' distribution fee may cause that Class to have higher expenses and pay
lower dividends than Class A shares. Purchases of Fund shares, which when com-
bined with current holdings of Class C shares of the Fund equal or exceed
$500,000 in the aggregate, should be made in Class A shares at net asset value
with no sales charge, and will be subject to a CDSC of 1.00% on redemptions
made within 12 months of purchase.
Class Y Shares. Class Y shares are available only to investors meeting an
initial investment minimum of $5,000,000. Class Y shares are sold at net asset
value with no initial sales charge or CDSC. They are not subject to any serv-
ice or distribution fees.
In deciding which Class of Fund shares to purchase, investors should con-
sider the following factors, as well as any other relevant facts and circum-
stances:
Intended Holding Period. The decision as to which Class of shares is more
beneficial to an investor depends on the amount and intended duration of his
or her investment. Shareholders who are planning to establish a program of
regular investment may wish to consider Class A shares; as the investment
accumulates shareholders may qualify for reduced sales charges and the shares
are subject to lower ongoing expenses over the term of the investment. As an
alternative, Class B and Class C shares are sold without any initial sales
charge so the
4

PROSPECTUS SUMMARY (CONTINUED)
entire purchase price is immediately invested in the Fund. Any investment
return on these additional invested amounts may partially or wholly offset the
higher annual expenses of these Classes. Because the Fund's future return can-
not be predicted, however, there can be no assurance that this would be the
case.
Finally, investors should consider the effect of the CDSC period and any con-
version rights of the Classes in the context of their own investment time
frame. For example, while Class C shares have a shorter CDSC period than Class
B shares, they do not have a conversion feature, and therefore, are subject to
an ongoing distribution fee. Thus, Class B shares may be more attractive than
Class C shares to investors with longer term investment outlooks.
Investors investing a minimum of $5,000,000 must purchase Class Y shares,
which are not subject to any initial sales charge, CDSC or service or distribu-
tion fees. The maximum purchase amount for Class A shares is $4,999,999, Class
B shares is $249,999 and Class C shares is $499,999. There is no maximum pur-
chase amount for Class Y shares.
Reduced or No Initial Sales Charge. The initial sales charge on Class A
shares may be waived for certain eligible purchasers, and the entire purchase
price would be immediately invested in the Fund. In addition, Class A share
purchases, which when combined with current holdings of Class A shares offered
with a sales charge equal or exceed $500,000 in the aggregate, will be made at
net asset value with no initial sales charge, but will be subject to a CDSC of
1.00% on redemptions made within 12 months of purchase. The $500,000 aggregate
investment may be met by adding the purchase to the net asset value of all
Class A shares held in certain funds sponsored by Smith Barney Inc. ("Smith
Barney") listed under "Exchange Privilege." Class A share purchases may also be
eligible for a reduced initial sales charge. See "Purchase of Shares." Because
the ongoing expenses of Class A shares may be lower than those for Class B and
Class C shares, purchasers eligible to purchase Class A shares at net asset
value or at a reduced sales charge should consider doing so.
Smith Barney Financial Consultants may receive different compensation for
selling the different Classes of shares. Investors should understand that the
purpose of the CDSC on the Class B and Class C shares is the same as that of
the initial sales charge on the Class A shares.

PROSPECTUS SUMMARY (CONTINUED)
See "Purchase of Shares" and "Management of the Fund" for a complete
description of the sales charges and service and distribution fees for each
Class of shares and "Valuation of Shares," "Dividends, Distributions and Tax-
es" and "Exchange Privilege" for other differences between the Classes of
shares.
PURCHASE OF SHARES Shares may be purchased through the Fund's distributor,
Smith Barney, a broker that clears securities transactions through Smith
Barney on a fully disclosed basis (an "Introducing Broker") or an investment
dealer in the selling group. See "Purchase of Shares."
INVESTMENT MINIMUMS Investors in Class A, Class B and Class C shares may open
an account by making an initial investment of at least $1,000 for each
account. Investors in Class Y shares may open an account for an initial
investment of $5,000,000. Subsequent investments of at least $50 may be made
for all Classes. The minimum initial investment requirement for Class A, Class
B and Class C shares and the subsequent investment requirement for all Classes
through the Systematic Investment Plan described below is $50. There is no
minimum investment requirement in Class A for unitholders who invest distribu-
tions from a unit investment trust ("UIT") sponsored by Smith Barney. See
"Purchase of Shares."
SYSTEMATIC INVESTMENT PLAN The Fund offers shareholders a Systematic Invest-
ment Plan under which they may authorize the automatic placement of a purchase
order each month or quarter for Fund shares in an amount of at least $50. See
"Purchase of Shares."
REDEMPTION OF SHARES Shares may be redeemed on each day the New York Stock
Exchange, Inc. ("NYSE") is open for business. See "Purchase of Shares" and
"Redemption of Shares."
MANAGEMENT OF THE FUND Smith Barney Mutual Funds Management Inc. ("SBMFM")
serves as the Fund's investment adviser and administrator. SBMFM provides
investment advisory and management services to investment companies affiliated
with Smith Barney. SBMFM is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Smith Barney Holdings
Inc. ("Holdings"), which, in turn, is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Travelers

PROSPECTUS SUMMARY (CONTINUED)
EXCHANGE PRIVILEGE Shares of a Class may be exchanged for shares of the same
class of certain other Smith Barney Mutual Funds at the respective net asset
values next determined, plus any applicable sales charge differential. See "Ex-
change Privilege."
VALUATION OF SHARES Net asset value of the Fund for the prior day generally is
quoted daily in the financial section of most newspapers and is also available
from Smith Barney Financial Consultants. See "Valuation of Shares."
DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS Dividends from net investment income are declared
monthly and paid on the last Friday of each calendar month to shareholders of
record as of three business days prior thereto. Distributions of net realized
long- and short-term capital gains, if any, are declared and paid annually
after the end of the fiscal year in which they were earned. See "Dividends,
Distributions and Taxes."
REINVESTMENT OF DIVIDENDS Dividends and distributions paid on shares of any
Class will be reinvested automatically, unless otherwise specified by an
investor, in additional shares of the same Class at current net asset value.
Shares acquired by dividend and distribution reinvestments will not be subject
to any sales charge or CDSC. Class B shares acquired through dividend and dis-
tribution reinvestments will become eligible for conversion to Class A shares
on a pro rata basis. See "Dividends, Distributions and Taxes."
RISK FACTORS AND SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS There can be no assurance that the Fund
will achieve its investment objective. The Fund has the right to invest, with-
out limit, in "private activity bonds," the income from which may be taxable as
a specific preference item for purposes of the Federal alternative minimum tax.
See "Investment Objective and Management Policies" and "Dividends, Distribu-
tions and Taxes." The Fund generally will invest at least 80% of its assets in
investment grade securities and may invest the remainder of its assets in secu-
rities rated as low as C by Moody's Investors Service, Inc. ("Moody's") or D by
Standard & Poor's Corporation ("S&P"), or in unrated obligations of comparable
quality. Securities in the fourth highest rating category, though considered to
be investment grade, have speculative characteristics. Securities rated as low
as D are extremely speculative and are in actual default of interest and/or
principal payments. There are risks connected with the use of certain portfolio
strategies by the Fund, such as the use of when-issued securities, municipal
bond index futures contracts and put and call options on inter-

Objective and Management Policies--Certain Portfolio Strategies."
THE FUND'S EXPENSES The following expense table lists the costs and expenses
an investor will incur either directly or indirectly as a shareholder of the
Fund, based upon the maximum sales charge or maximum CDSC that may be incurred
at the time of purchase or redemption and, unless otherwise noted, the Fund's
operating expenses for its most recent fiscal year:

* Purchases of Class A shares which when combined with current holdings of
Class A shares offered with a sales charge, equal or exceed $500,000 in the
aggregate, will be made at net asset value with no sales charge, but will
be subject to a CDSC of 1.00% on redemptions made within 12 months.
** Upon conversion of Class B shares to Class A shares, such shares will no
longer be subject to a distribution fee. Class C shares do not have a
conversion feature and, therefore, are subject to an ongoing distribution
fee. As a result, long-term shareholders of Class C shares may pay more
than the economic equivalent of the maximum front-end sales charge
permitted by the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc.
The sales charge and CDSC set forth in the above table are the maximum
charges imposed on purchases or redemptions of Fund shares and investors may
actually pay lower or no charges depending on the amount purchased and, in the
case of Class B, Class C and certain Class A shares, the length of time the
shares are held. See "Purchase of Shares" and "Redemption of Shares." Smith
Barney receives an annual 12b-1 service fee of 0.15% of the value of average
daily net assets of Class A shares. Smith Barney also receives, with respect
to Class B shares, an annual 12b-1 fee of 0.65% of the value of average daily

assets of that Class, consisting of a 0.50% distribution fee and a 0.15% serv-
ice fee. With respect to Class C shares, Smith Barney receives an annual 12b-1
fee of 0.70% of the value of average daily net assets of the Class, consisting
of a 0.55% distribution fee and a 0.15% service fee. "Other expenses" in the
above table include fees for shareholder services, custodial fees, legal and
accounting fees, printing costs and registration fees.
EXAMPLE The following example is intended to assist an investor in understand-
ing the various costs that an investor in the Fund will bear directly or indi-
rectly. The example assumes payment by the Fund of operating expenses at the
levels set forth in the table above. See "Purchase of Shares," "Redemption of
Shares" and "Management of the Fund."
<TABLE>

An investor would pay the following expenses
on a $1,000 investment, assuming (1) 5.00%
annual return and (2) redemption at the end
of each time period:
Class A $47 $61 $77 $124
Class B 57 69 77 133
Class C 23 40 70 153
Class Y 6 18 32 71
An investor would pay the following expenses
on the same investment, assuming the same
annual return and no redemption:
Class A $47 $61 $77 $124
Class B 12 39 67 133
Class C 13 40 70 153
Class Y 6 18 32 71
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
</TABLE>
* Ten-year figures assume conversion of Class B shares to Class A shares at the
end of the eighth year following the date of purchase.
The example also provides a means for the investor to compare expense levels
of funds with different fee structures over varying investment periods. To
facilitate such comparison, all funds are required to utilize a 5.00% annual
return assumption. However, the Fund's actual return will vary and may be
greater or less than 5.00%. THIS EXAMPLE SHOULD NOT BE CONSIDERED A REPRESENTA-
TION OF PAST OR FUTURE EXPENSES AND ACTUAL EXPENSES MAY BE GREATER OR LESS THAN
THOSE SHOWN.

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE AND MANAGEMENT POLICIES
The Fund seeks to maximize current interest income exempt from Federal income
taxes to the extent consistent with prudent investment management and the pres-
ervation of capital by investing in a professionally managed, diversified port-
folio consisting of municipal securities that pay interest which is excluded
from gross income for regular Federal income tax purposes and that are issued
by or on behalf of the states, territories and possessions of the United States
and the District of Columbia and their political subdivisions, agencies and
instrumentalities, or multi-state agencies or authorities, generally known as
"Municipal Bonds." This investment objective may not be changed without the
approval of the holders of a majority of the Fund's outstanding shares. There
is no guarantee that the Fund's investment objective will be achieved.
The Fund will operate subject to a fundamental investment policy providing
that, under normal market conditions, the Fund will invest at least 80% of its
net assets in Municipal Bonds. For temporary defensive purposes, the Fund may
invest without limit in "Temporary Investments" as described below. The Fund's
average weighted maturity will vary from time to time based on the judgment of
SBMFM. The Fund intends to focus on intermediate- and long-term obligations;
that is, obligations with remaining maturities at the time of purchase of
between three to in excess of twenty years.
The Fund generally will invest at least 80% of its total assets in investment
grade debt obligations rated no lower than Baa, MIG 3 or Prime-1 by Moody's or
BBB, SP-2 or A-1 by S&P, or in unrated obligations of comparable quality.
Unrated obligations will be considered to be of investment grade if deemed by
SBMFM to be of comparable quality to instruments so rated, or if other out-
standing obligations of the issuers thereof are rated Baa or better by Moody's
or BBB or better by S&P. The balance of the Fund's assets may be invested in
securities rated as low as C by Moody's or D by S&P, or comparable unrated
securities, which are sometimes referred to as "junk bonds." Securities in the
fourth highest rating category, though considered to be investment grade, have
speculative characteristics. Securities rated as low as D are extremely specu-
lative and are in actual default of interest and/or principal payments. It
should be emphasized that ratings are relative and subjective and are not abso-
lute standards of quality. Although these ratings are initial criteria for
selection of portfolio investments, the Fund also will make its own evaluation
of these securities. Among the factors that will be considered are the long-
term ability of the issuers to pay principal and interest and general economic
trends.

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE AND MANAGEMENT POLICIES (CONTINUED)
The value of debt securities varies inversely to changes in the direction of
interest rates. When interest rates rise the value of debt securities gener-
ally falls, and when interest rates fall, the value of debt securities gener-
ally rises. While the market values of low-rated and comparable unrated secu-
rities tend to react less to fluctuations in interest rate levels than the
market values of higher-rated securities, the market values of certain low-
rated and comparable unrated municipal securities also tend to be more sensi-
tive than higher-rated securities to short-term corporate and industry devel-
opments and changes in economic conditions (including recession) in specific
regions or localities or among specific types of issuers. In addition, low-
rated securities and comparable unrated securities generally present a higher
degree of credit risk. During an economic downturn or a prolonged period of
rising interest rates, the ability of issuers of low-rated and comparable
unrated securities to service their payment obligations, meet projected goals
or obtain additional financing may be impaired. The risk of loss due to
default by such issuers is significantly greater because low-rated and compa-
rable unrated securities generally are unsecured and frequently are subordi-
nated to the prior payment of senior indebtedness. The Fund may incur addi-
tional expenses to the extent it is required to seek recovery upon a default
in the payment of principal or interest on its portfolio holdings.
While the market for municipal securities is considered to be generally ade-
quate, the existence of limited markets for particular low-rated and compara-
ble unrated securities may diminish the Fund's ability to (a) obtain accurate
market quotations for purposes of valuing such securities and calculating its
net asset value and (b) sell the securities at fair value either to meet
redemption requests or to respond to changes in the economy or in the finan-
cial markets. The market for certain low-rated and comparable unrated securi-
ties has not fully weathered a major economic recession. Any such recession,
however, would likely disrupt severely the market for such securities and
adversely affect the value of the securities and the ability of the issuers of
these securities to repay principal and pay interest thereon.
Fixed-income securities, including low-rated securities and comparable
unrated securities, frequently have call or buy-back features that permit
their issuers to call or repurchase the securities from their holders, such as
the Fund. If an issuer exercises these rights during periods of declining
interest rates, the Fund may have to replace the security with a lower yield-
ing security, thus resulting in a decreased return to the Fund.

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE AND MANAGEMENT POLICIES (CONTINUED)
A description of the rating systems of Moody's and S&P is contained in the
Statement of Additional Information.
The Fund may invest without limit in "municipal leases," which are obliga-
tions issued by state and local governments or authorities to finance the
acquisition of equipment or facilities. The interest on such obligations is, in
the opinion of counsel to the issuers, excluded from gross income for Federal
income tax purposes. Although lease obligations do not constitute general obli-
gations of the municipality for which the municipality's taxing power is
pledged, a lease obligation is ordinarily backed by the municipality's covenant
to budget for, appropriate and make the payments due under the lease obliga-
tion. However, certain lease obligations contain "non-appropriation" clauses
which provide that the municipality has no obligation to make lease or install-
ment purchase payments in future years unless money is appropriated for such
purpose on a yearly basis. In addition to the "non-appropriation" risk, these
securities represent a relatively new type of financing that has not yet devel-
oped the depth of marketability associated with more conventional bonds.
Although "non-appropriation" lease obligations are often secured by the under-
lying property, disposition of the property in the event of foreclosure might
prove difficult. There is no limitation on the percentage of the Fund's assets
that may be invested in municipal lease obligations. In evaluating municipal
lease obligations, SBMFM will consider such factors as it deems appropriate
which may include: (a) whether the lease can be canceled; (b) the ability of
the lease obligee to direct the sale of the underlying assets; (c) the general
creditworthiness of the lease obligor; (d) the likelihood that the municipality
will discontinue appropriating funding for the leased property in the event
such property is no longer considered essential by the municipality; (e) the
legal recourse of the lease obligee in the event of such a failure to appropri-
ate funding; (f) whether the security is backed by a credit enhancement such as
insurance; and (g) any limitations which are imposed on the lease obligor's
ability to utilize substitute property or services rather than those covered by
the lease obligation.
The Fund may invest without limit in private activity bonds. Interest income
on certain types of private activity bonds issued after August 7, 1986 to
finance nongovernmental activities is a specific tax preference item for pur-
poses of the Federal individual and corporate alternative minimum taxes. Indi-
vidual and corporate shareholders may be subject to a Federal alternative mini-
mum tax to the extent that the Fund's dividends are derived from interest on
these bonds. Dividends derived from interest income on all Municipal Bonds are
a component of
17

the "current earnings" adjustment item for purposes of the Federal corporate
alternative minimum tax.
The Fund may invest without limit in debt obligations which are repayable
out of revenue streams generated from economically related projects or facili-
ties or debt obligations whose issuers are located in the same state. Sizable
investments in such obligations could involve an increased risk to the Fund
should any of such related projects or facilities experience financial diffi-
culties. In addition, the Fund may invest up to 15% of its total assets in
securities with contractual or other restrictions on resale and other instru-
ments which are not readily marketable. The Fund also is authorized to borrow
up to 10% of its total assets (including the amount borrowed) valued at market
less liabilities (not including the amount borrowed) to meet anticipated
redemptions and to pledge its assets to the same extent in connection with
such borrowings.
Further information about the Fund's investment policies, including a list
of those restrictions on the Fund's investment activities that cannot be
changed without shareholder approval, appears in the Statement of Additional
Information.
CERTAIN PORTFOLIO STRATEGIES
In attempting to achieve its investment objective, the Fund may employ,
among others, the following portfolio strategies.
When-Issued Securities.New issues of Municipal Bonds frequently are offered
on a when-issued basis, which means that delivery and payment for such securi-
ties normally take place within 45 days after the date of the commitment to
purchase. The payment obligation and the interest rate that will be received
on when-issued securities are fixed at the time the buyer enters into the com-
mitment. As a result, the yields obtained on such securities may be higher or
lower than the yields available in the market on the dates when the instru-
ments actually are delivered to the buyers. In addition, during the period
before delivery and payment, there is no accrual of interest and there may be
fluctuations in the price of the securities. The Fund will establish a segre-
gated account with the Fund's custodian consisting of cash, obligations issued
or guaranteed by the United States government or its agencies or instrumental-
ities ("U.S. government securities") or other high grade debt obligations in
an amount equal to the purchase price of the Fund's when-issued commitments.
Placing securities rather than cash in the segregated account may have a
leveraging effect on the
18

SMITH BARNEY

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE AND MANAGEMENT POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Fund's net assets. The Fund generally will make commitments to purchase such
Municipal Bonds on a when-issued basis only with the intention of actually
acquiring the securities, but the Fund may sell the securities before the set-
tlement date if it is deemed advisable.
Temporary Investments.Under normal market conditions, the Fund may hold up to
20% of its total assets in cash or money market instruments, including taxable
money market instruments ("Temporary Investments"). In addition, when SBMFM
believes that market conditions warrant, including when acceptable Municipal
Bonds are unavailable, the Fund may take a temporary defensive posture and
invest without limitation in Temporary Investments. Securities eligible for
short-term investment by the Fund are tax-exempt notes of municipal issuers
having, at the time of purchase, a rating within the three highest grades of
Moody's or S&P or, if not rated, having an issue of outstanding Municipal Bonds
rated within the three highest grades of Moody's or S&P, and certain taxable
short-term instruments having quality characteristics comparable to those for
Municipal Bonds. To the extent the Fund holds Temporary Investments, it may not
achieve its investment objective. Since its commencement of operations, the
Fund has not found it necessary to make taxable Temporary Investments, and it
is not expected that such action will be necessary.
Financial Futures and Options Transactions.To hedge against a decline in the
value of Municipal Bonds it owns or an increase in the price of Municipal Bonds
it proposes to purchase, the Fund may enter into financial futures contracts
and invest in options on financial futures contracts that are traded on a
domestic exchange or board of trade. The futures contracts or options on
futures contracts that may be entered into by the Fund will be restricted to
those that are either based on an index of Municipal Bonds or relate to debt
securities the prices of which are anticipated by SBMFM to correlate with the
prices of the Municipal Bonds owned or to be purchased by the Fund.
In entering into a financial futures contract, the Fund will be required to
deposit with the broker through which it undertakes the transaction an amount
of cash or cash equivalents equal to approximately 5% of the contract amount.
This amount, which is known as "initial margin," is subject to change by the
exchange or board of trade on which the contract is traded, and members of the
exchange or board of trade may charge a higher amount. Initial margin is in the
nature of a performance bond or good faith deposit on the contract that is
returned to the Fund upon termination of the futures contract, assuming all
contractual obligations have been satisfied. In accordance with a process known
19

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE AND MANAGEMENT POLICIES (CONTINUED)
as "marking-to-market," subsequent payments, known as "variation margin," to
and from the broker will be made daily as the price of the index or securities
underlying the futures contract fluctuates, making the long and short positions
in the futures contract more or less valuable. At any time prior to the expira-
tion of a futures contract, the Fund may elect to close the position by taking
an opposite position, which will operate to terminate the Fund's existing posi-
tion in the contract.
A financial futures contract provides for the future sale by one party and
the purchase by the other party of a certain amount of a specified property at
a specified price, date, time and place. Unlike the direct investment in a
futures contract, an option on a financial futures contract gives the purchaser
the right, in return for the premium paid, to assume a position in the finan-
cial futures contract at a specified exercise price at any time prior to the
expiration date of the option. Upon exercise of an option, the delivery of the
futures position by the writer of the option to the holder of the option will
be accompanied by delivery of the accumulated balance in the writer's futures
margin account, which represents the amount by which the market price of the
futures contract exceeds, in the case of a call, or is less than, in the case
of a put, the exercise price of the option on the futures contract. The poten-
tial loss related to the purchase of an option on financial futures contracts
is limited to the premium paid for the option (plus transaction costs). The
value of the option may change daily and that change would be reflected in the
net asset value of the Fund.
Regulations of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission applicable to the
Fund require that its transactions in financial futures contracts and options
on financial futures contracts be engaged in for bona fide hedging purposes, or
if the Fund enters into futures contracts for speculative purposes, that the
aggregate initial margin deposits and premiums paid by the Fund will not exceed
5% of the market value of its assets. In addition, the Fund will, with respect
to its purchases of financial futures contracts, establish a segregated account
consisting of cash or cash equivalents in an amount equal to the total market
value of the futures contracts, less the amount of initial margin on deposit
for the contracts. The Fund's ability to trade in financial futures contracts
and options on financial futures contracts may be limited to some extent by the
requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"),
applicable to a regulated investment company that are described below under
"Dividends, Distributions and Taxes."

SMITH BARNEY

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE AND MANAGEMENT POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Although the Fund intends to enter into financial futures contracts and
options on financial futures contracts that are traded on a domestic exchange
or board of trade only if an active market exists for those instruments, no
assurance can be given that an active market will exist for them at any partic-
ular time. If closing a futures position in anticipation of adverse price move-
ments is not possible, the Fund would be required to make daily cash payments
of variation margin. In those circumstances, an increase in the value of the
portion of the Fund's investments being hedged, if any, may offset partially or
completely losses on the futures contract. No assurance can be given, however,
that the price of the securities being hedged will correlate with the price
movements in a futures contract and, thus, provide an offset to losses on the
futures contract or option on the futures contract. In addition, in light of
the risk of an imperfect correlation between securities held by the Fund that
are the subject of a hedging transaction and the futures or options used as a
hedging device, the hedge may not be fully effective because, for example,
losses on the securities held by the Fund may be in excess of gains on the
futures contract or losses on the futures contract may be in excess of gains on
the securities held by the Fund that were the subject of the hedge. In an
effort to compensate for the imperfect correlation of movements in the price of
the securities being hedged and movements in the price of futures contracts,
the Fund may enter into financial futures contracts or options on financial
futures contracts in a greater or lesser dollar amount than the dollar amount
of the securities being hedged if the historical volatility of the futures con-
tract has been less or greater than that of the securities. This "over hedging"
or "under hedging" may adversely affect the Fund's net investment results if
market movements are not as anticipated when the hedge is established.
If the Fund has hedged against the possibility of an increase in interest
rates adversely affecting the value of securities it holds and rates decrease
instead, the Fund will lose part or all of the benefit of the increased value
of securities that it has hedged because it will have offsetting losses in its
futures or options positions. In addition, in those situations, if the Fund has
insufficient cash, it may have to sell securities to meet daily variation mar-
gin requirements on the futures contracts at a time when it may be disadvanta-
geous to do so. These sales of securities may, but will not necessarily, be at
increased prices that reflect the decline in interest rates.

MUNICIPAL BONDS
The term "Municipal Bonds" generally is understood to include debt obliga-
tions issued to obtain funds for various public purposes, the interest on
which qualifies, in the opinion of bond counsel to the issuer, as excluded
from gross income for Federal income tax purposes. In addition, Municipal
Bonds may include "private activity bonds" if the proceeds from such bonds are
used for the construction, equipment, repair or improvement of privately oper-
ated industrial or commercial facilities, and the interest paid on such bonds
may be excluded from gross income for Federal income tax purposes. Current
Federal tax laws place substantial limitations on the aggregate amount of such
bonds that any given state may issue.
CLASSIFICATIONS
The two principal classifications of Municipal Bonds are "general obliga-
tion" and "revenue" bonds. General obligation bonds are secured by the
issuer's pledge of its full faith, credit and taxing power for the payment of
principal and interest. Revenue bonds are payable from the revenues derived
from a particular facility or class of facilities or, in some cases, from the
proceeds of a special excise or other specific revenue source, but not from
the general taxing power. Sizable investments in such obligations could
involve an increased risk to the Fund should any of such related facilities
experience financial difficulties. Private activity bonds are in most cases
revenue bonds and generally do not carry the pledge of the credit of the issu-
ing municipality. There are, of course, variations in the security of Munici-
pal Bonds, both within a particular classification and between classifica-
tions.
VALUATION OF SHARES
The Fund's net asset value per share is determined as of the close of regu-
lar trading on the NYSE, on each day that the NYSE is open, by dividing the
value of the Fund's net assets attributable to each Class by the total number
of shares of that Class outstanding.
Generally, the Fund's investments are valued at market value or, in the
absence of a market value with respect to any securities, at fair value as
determined by or under the direction of the Fund's Board of Directors. Short-
term investments that mature in 60 days or less are valued at amortized cost
whenever the Directors determine that amortized cost reflects fair value of
those investments. Amortized cost valuation involves valuing an instrument at
its cost
22
<PAGE>
SMITH BARNEY
Managed Municipals Fund Inc.
VALUATION OF SHARES (CONTINUED)
initially and, thereafter, assuming a constant amortization to maturity of any
discount or premium, regardless of the impact of fluctuating interest rates on
the market value of the instrument. Further information regarding the Fund's
valuation policies is contained in the Statement of Additional Information.
DIVIDENDS, DISTRIBUTIONS AND TAXES
DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS
The Fund declares dividends from its net investment income (that is, income
other than its net realized long- and short-term capital gains) monthly; divi-
dends ordinarily will be paid on the last Friday of each calendar month to
shareholders of record as of three business days prior thereto. Distributions
of net realized long- and short-term capital gains, if any, are declared and
paid annually after the end of the fiscal year in which they have been earned.
If a shareholder does not otherwise instruct, dividends and capital gains
distributions will be reinvested automatically in additional shares of the same
Class at net asset value, subject to no sales charge or CDSC. In addition, in
order to avoid the application of a 4% nondeductible excise tax on certain
undistributed amounts of ordinary income and capital gains, the Fund may make
an additional distribution shortly before December 31 of each year of any
undistributed ordinary income or capital gains and expects to make any other
distributions as are necessary to avoid the application of this tax.
If, for any full fiscal year, the Fund's total distributions exceed net
investment income and net realized capital gains, the excess distributions may
be treated as a taxable dividend or as a tax-free return of capital (up to the
amount of the shareholder's tax basis in his or her shares). The amount treated
as a tax-free return of capital will reduce a shareholder's adjusted basis in
his or her shares. Pursuant to the requirements of the Investment Company Act
of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), and other applicable laws, a notice will
accompany any distribution paid from sources other than net investment income.
In the event the Fund distributes amounts in excess of its net investment
income and net realized capital gains, such distributions may have the effect
of decreasing the Fund's total assets, which may increase the Fund's expense
ratio.

SMITH BARNEY

DIVIDENDS, DISTRIBUTIONS AND TAXES (CONTINUED)
The per share dividends on Class B shares and Class C shares may be lower
than the per share dividends on Class A and Class Y shares principally as a
result of the distribution fee applicable with respect to Class B and Class C
shares. The per share dividends on Class A shares of the Fund may be lower
than the per share dividends on Class Y principally as a result of the service
fee applicable to Class A shares. Distributions of capital gains, if any, will
be in the same amount for Class A, Class B, Class C and Class Y shares.
TAXES
The Fund has qualified and intends to continue to qualify each year as a
regulated investment company under the Code and will designate and pay exempt-
interest dividends derived from interest earned on qualifying tax-exempt obli-
gations. Such exempt-interest dividends may be excluded by shareholders from
their gross incomes for regular Federal income tax purposes although (a) all
or a portion of such exempt-interest dividends will be a specific preference
item for purposes of the Federal individual and corporate alternative minimum
taxes to the extent they are derived from certain types of private activity
bonds issued after August 7, 1986 and (b) all exempt-interest dividends will
be a component of the "current earnings" adjustment item for purposes of the
Federal corporate alternative minimum tax. In addition, corporate shareholders
may incur a greater Federal "environmental" tax liability through the receipt
of Fund dividends and distributions.
Dividends paid from taxable net investment income, if any, and distributions
of any net realized short-term capital gains (whether from tax-exempt or tax-
able obligations) are taxable to shareholders as ordinary income regardless of
how long they have held their Fund shares and whether such dividends or dis-
tributions are received in cash or reinvested in additional Fund shares. Dis-
tributions of net realized long-term capital gains will be taxable to share-
holders as long-term capital gains, regardless of how long they have held
their Fund shares and whether such distributions are received in cash or rein-
vested in Fund shares. Furthermore, as a general rule, a shareholder's gain or
loss on a sale or redemption of his or her shares will be a long-term capital
gain or loss if the shareholder has held the shares for more than one year and
will be a short-term capital gain or loss if the shareholder has held the
shares for one year or less. The Fund's dividends and distributions will not
qualify for the dividends-received deduction for corporations.

DIVIDENDS, DISTRIBUTIONS AND TAXES (CONTINUED)
Statements as to the tax status of each shareholder's dividends and distribu-
tions are mailed annually. Each shareholder will also receive, if appropriate,
various written notices after the close of the Fund's prior taxable year as to
the Federal income tax status of his or her dividends and distributions which
were received from the Fund during the Fund's prior taxable year. These state-

income taxes and the dollar amount, if any, subject to regular Federal income

has or had investments. Shareholders should consult their tax advisors about
the status of the Fund's dividends and distributions for state and local tax

PURCHASE OF SHARES
GENERAL
The Fund currently offers four Classes of shares. Class A shares are sold to
investors with an initial sales charge and Class B and Class C shares are sold
without an initial sales charge but are subject to a CDSC payable upon certain
redemptions. Class Y shares are sold without an initial sales charge or a CDSC
and are available only to investors investing a minimum of $5,000,000 (except
for purchases of Class Y shares by Smith Barney Concert Series Inc., for which
there is no minimum purchase amount). See "Prospectus Summary--Alternative
Purchase Arrangements" for a discussion of factors to consider in selecting
which Class of shares to purchase.
Purchases of Fund shares must be made through a brokerage account maintained
with Smith Barney, with an Introducing Broker or with an investment dealer in
the selling group. When purchasing shares of the Fund, investors must specify
whether the purchase is for Class A, Class B, Class C or Class Y shares. No
maintenance fee will be charged by the Fund in connection with a brokerage
account through which an investor purchases or holds shares.
Investors in Class A, Class B and Class C shares may open an account in the
Fund by making an initial investment of at least $1,000. Investors in Class Y
shares may open an account by making an initial investment of $5,000,000. Sub-
sequent investments of at least $50 may be made for all Classes. For the
Fund's Systematic Investment Plan, the minimum initial investment requirement
for Class A, Class B and Class C shares and the subsequent investment require-
ment for all Classes is $50. There are no minimum investment requirements for
Class A shares for employees of Travelers and its subsidiaries, including
Smith Barney, unitholders who invest distributions from a UIT sponsored by
Smith Barney, and Directors of the Fund and their spouses and children. The
Fund reserves the right to waive or change minimums, to decline any order to
purchase its shares and to suspend the offering of shares from time to time.
Shares purchased will be held in the shareholder's account by the Fund's
transfer agent, First Data Investor Services Group, Inc. (the "Transfer
Agent"). Share certificates are issued only upon a shareholder's written
request to the Transfer Agent.
Purchase orders received by the Fund or Smith Barney prior to the close of
regular trading on the NYSE, on any day the Fund calculates its net asset val-
ue, are priced according to the net asset value determined on that day (the
"trade date"). Orders received by dealers or Introducing Brokers prior to the
close of

regular trading on the NYSE on any day the Fund calculates its net asset value,
are priced according to the net asset value determined on that day, provided
the order is received by the Fund or Smith Barney prior to Smith Barney's close
of business. For shares purchased through Smith Barney or Introducing Brokers
purchasing through Smith Barney, payment for Fund shares is due on the third
business day after the trade date (the "settlement date"). In all other cases,
payment must be made with the purchase order.
SYSTEMATIC INVESTMENT PLAN
Shareholders may make additions to their accounts at any time by purchasing
shares through a service known as the Systematic Investment Plan. Under the
Systematic Investment Plan, Smith Barney or the Transfer Agent is authorized
through preauthorized transfers of $50 or more to charge the shareholder's
account held with a bank or other financial institution on a monthly or quar-
terly basis as indicated by the shareholder to provide systematic additions to
the shareholder's Fund account. A shareholder who has insufficient funds to
complete the transfer will be charged a fee of up to $25 by Smith Barney or the
Transfer Agent. The Systematic Investment Plan also authorizes Smith Barney to
apply cash held in the shareholder's Smith Barney brokerage account or redeem
the shareholder's shares of a Smith Barney money market fund to make additions
to the account. Additional information is available from the Fund or a Smith
Barney Financial Consultant.

</TABLE>
* Purchases of Class A shares, which when combined with current
holdings of Class A shares offered with a sales charge equal or
exceed $500,000 in the aggregate, will be made at net asset value
without any initial sales charge, but will be subject to a CDSC of
1.00% on redemptions made within 12 months of purchase. The CDSC
on Class A shares is payable to Smith Barney, which compensates
Smith Barney Financial Consultants and other dealers whose clients
make purchases of $500,000 or more. The CDSC is waived in the same
circumstances in which the CDSC applicable to Class B and Class C
shares is waived. See "Deferred Sales Charge Alternatives" and
"Waivers of CDSC."
Members of the selling group may receive up to 90% of the sales charge and
may be deemed to be underwriters of the Fund as defined in the Securities Act
of 1933.
The reduced sales charges shown above apply to the aggregate of purchases of
Class A shares of the Fund made at one time by "any person," which includes an
individual, his or her spouse and children, or a trustee or other fiduciary of
a single trust estate or single fiduciary account. The reduced sales charge
minimums may also be met by aggregating the purchase with the net asset value
of all Class A shares held in funds sponsored by Smith Barney that are offered
with a sales charge listed under "Exchange Privilege."
INITIAL SALES CHARGE WAIVERS
Purchases of Class A shares may be made at net asset value without a sales
charge in the following circumstances: (a) sales to (i) Trustees or Directors
of any Smith Barney Mutual Funds and employees of Travelers and its subsidiar-
ies and to the immediate families of such persons and pension, profit-sharing
or other benefit plans for such persons and (ii) employees of members of the
National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc., provided such sales are made
upon the assurance of the purchaser that the purchase is made for investment

purposes and that the securities will not be resold except through redemption
or repurchase; (b) offers of Class A shares to any other investment company in
connection with the combination of such company with the Fund by merger, acqui-
sition of assets or otherwise; (c) purchases of Class A shares by any client of
a newly employed Smith Barney Financial Consultant (for a period up to 90 days
from the commencement of the Financial Consultant's employment with Smith Bar-
ney), on the condition the purchase of Class A shares is made with the proceeds
of the redemption of shares of a mutual fund which (i) was sponsored by the
Financial Consultant's prior employer, (ii) was sold to the client by the
Financial Consultant and (iii) was subject to a sales charge; (d) shareholders
who have redeemed Class A shares in the Fund (or Class A shares of another
Smith Barney Mutual Fund that are offered with a sales charge equal to or
greater than the maximum sales charge of the Fund) and who wish to reinvest
their redemption proceeds in the Fund, provided the reinvestment is made within
60 calendar days of the redemption; (e) accounts managed by registered invest-
ment advisory subsidiaries of Travelers; and (f) investments of distributions
from a UIT sponsored by Smith Barney. In order to obtain such discounts, the
purchaser must provide sufficient information at the time of purchase to permit
verification that the purchase would qualify for the elimination of the sales
charge.
RIGHT OF ACCUMULATION
Class A shares of the Fund may be purchased by "any person" (as defined
above) at a reduced sales charge or at net asset value determined by aggregat-
ing the dollar amount of the new purchase and the total net asset value of all
Class A shares of the Fund and of funds sponsored by Smith Barney which are
offered with a sales charge listed under "Exchange Privilege" then held by such
person and applying the sales charge applicable to such aggregate. In order to
obtain such discount, the purchaser must provide sufficient information at the
time of purchase to permit verification that the purchase qualifies for the
reduced sales charge. The right of accumulation is subject to modification or
discontinuance at any time with respect to all shares purchased thereafter.
GROUP PURCHASES
Upon completion of certain automated systems, a reduced sales charge or pur-
chase at net asset value will also be available to employees (and partners) of
the same employer purchasing as a group, provided each participant makes the
min-
29

PURCHASE OF SHARES (CONTINUED)
imum initial investment required. The sales charge applicable to purchases by
each member of such a group will be determined by the table set forth above
under "Initial Sales Charge Alternative--Class A Shares," and will be based
upon the aggregate sales of Class A shares of Smith Barney Mutual Funds
offered with a sales charge to, and share holdings of, all members of the
group. To be eligible for such reduced sales charges or to purchase at net
asset value, all purchases must be pursuant to an employer or partnership-
sanctioned plan meeting certain requirements. One such requirement is that the
plan must be open to specified partners or employees of the employer and its
subsidiaries, if any. Such plan may, but is not required to, provide for pay-
roll deductions. Smith Barney may also offer a reduced sales charge or net
asset value purchase for aggregating related fiduciary accounts under such
conditions that Smith Barney will realize economies of sales efforts and sales
related expenses. An individual who is a member of a qualified group may also
purchase Class A shares at the reduced sales charge applicable to the group as
a whole. The sales charge is based upon the aggregate dollar value of Class A
shares offered with a sales charge that have been previously purchased and are
still owned by the group, plus the amount of the current purchase. A "quali-
fied group" is one which (a) has been in existence for more than six months,
(b) has a purpose other than acquiring Fund shares at a discount and (c) sat-
isfies uniform criteria which enable Smith Barney to realize economies of
scale in its costs of distributing shares. A qualified group must have more
than 10 members, must be available to arrange for group meetings between rep-
resentatives of the Fund and the members, and must agree to include sales and
other materials related to the Fund in its publications and mailings to mem-
bers at no cost to Smith Barney. In order to obtain such reduced sales charge
or to purchase at net asset value, the purchaser must provide sufficient
information at the time of purchase to permit verification that the purchase
qualifies for the reduced sales charge. Approval of group purchase reduced
sales charge plans is subject to the discretion of Smith Barney.
LETTER OF INTENT
Class A Shares. A Letter of Intent for amounts of $50,000 or more provides
an opportunity for an investor to obtain a reduced sales charge by aggregating
investments over a 13 month period, provided that the investor refers to such
Letter when placing orders. For purposes of a Letter of Intent, the "Amount of
Investment" as referred to in the preceding sales charge table includes (i)
all Class A shares of the Fund and other Smith Barney Mutual Funds offered
with
30
<PAGE>
SMITH BARNEY
Managed Municipals Fund Inc.
PURCHASE OF SHARES (CONTINUED)
a sales charge acquired during the term of the Letter plus (ii) the value of
all Class A shares previously purchased and still owned. Each investment made
during the period receives the reduced sales charge applicable to the total
amount of the investment goal. If the goal is not achieved within the period,
the investor must pay the difference between the sales charges applicable to
the purchases made and the charges actually paid, or an appropriate number of
escrowed shares will be redeemed. The term of the Letter will commence upon the
date the Letter is signed, or at the option of the investor, up to 90 days
before such date. Please contact a Smith Barney Financial Consultant or the
Transfer Agent to obtain a Letter of Intent application.
Class Y Shares. A Letter of Intent may also be used as a way for investors to
meet the minimum investment requirement for Class Y shares. Such investors must
make an initial minimum purchase of $1,000,000 in Class Y shares of the Fund
and agree to purchase a total of $5,000,000 of Class Y shares of the Fund
within six months from the date of the Letter. If a total investment of
$5,000,000 is not made within the six-month period, all Class Y shares pur-
chased to date will be transferred to Class A shares, where they will be sub-
ject to all fees (including a service fee of 0.15%) and expenses applicable to
the Fund's Class A shares, which may include a CDSC of 1.00%. Please contact a
Smith Barney Financial Consultant or the Transfer Agent for further
information.
DEFERRED SALES CHARGE ALTERNATIVES
"CDSC Shares" are sold at net asset value next determined without an initial
sales charge so that the full amount of an investor's purchase payment may be
immediately invested in the Fund. A CDSC, however, may be imposed on certain
redemptions of these shares. "CDSC Shares" are : (a) Class B shares; (b) Class
C shares; and (c) Class A shares which when combined with Class A shares
offered with a sales charge currently held by an investor equal or exceed
$500,000 in the aggregate.
Any applicable CDSC will be assessed on an amount equal to the lesser of the
original cost of the shares being redeemed or their net asset value at the time
of redemption. CDSC Shares that are redeemed will not be subject to a CDSC to
the extent that the value of such shares represents: (a) capital appreciation
of Fund assets; (b) reinvestment of dividends or capital gain distributions;
(c) with respect to Class B shares, shares redeemed more than five years after
their purchase; or (d) with respect to Class C shares and Class A shares that
are CDSC Shares, shares redeemed more than 12 months after their purchase.
31
<PAGE>
SMITH BARNEY
Managed Municipals Fund Inc.
PURCHASE OF SHARES (CONTINUED)
Class C and Class A shares that are CDSC Shares are subject to a 1.00% CDSC
if redeemed within 12 months of purchase. In circumstances in which the CDSC
is imposed on Class B shares, the amount of the charge will depend on the num-
ber of years since the shareholder made the purchase payment from which the
amount is being redeemed. Solely for purposes of determining the number of
years since a purchase payment, all purchase payments made during a month will
be aggregated and deemed to have been made on the last day of the preceding
Smith Barney statement month. The following table sets forth the rates of the
charge for redemptions of Class B shares by shareholders.
<TABLE>

- ---------------------------------
</TABLE>
Class B shares will convert automatically to Class A shares eight years
after the date on which they were purchased and thereafter will no longer be
subject to any distribution fees. There will also be converted at that time
such proportion of Class B Dividend Shares owned by the shareholder as the
total number of his or her Class B shares converting at the time bears to the
total number of outstanding Class B shares (other than Class B Dividend
Shares) owned by the shareholder. Shareholders who held Class B shares of
Smith Barney Shearson Short-Term World Income Fund (the "Short-Term World
Income Fund") on July 15, 1994 and who subsequently exchanged those shares for
Class B shares of the Fund will be offered the opportunity to exchange all
such Class B shares for Class A shares of the Fund four years after the date
on which those shares were deemed to have been purchased. Holders of such
Class B shares will be notified of the pending exchange in writing approxi-
mately 30 days before the fourth anniversary of the purchase date and, unless
the exchange has been rejected in writing, the exchange will occur on or about
the fourth anniversary date. See "Prospectus Summary--Alternative Purchase
Arrangements--Class B Shares Conversion Feature."
The length of time that CDSC Shares acquired through an exchange have been
held will be calculated from the date that the shares exchanged were initially
acquired in one of the other Smith Barney Mutual Funds, and Fund
32

SMITH BARNEY
Managed Municipals Fund Inc.
PURCHASE OF SHARES (CONTINUED)
shares being redeemed will be considered to represent, as applicable, capital
appreciation or dividend and capital gain distribution reinvestments in such
other funds. For Federal income tax purposes, the amount of the CDSC will
reduce the gain or increase the loss, as the case may be, on the amount real-
ized on redemption. The amount of any CDSC will be paid to Smith Barney.
To provide an example, assume an investor purchased 100 Class B shares at $10
per share for a cost of $1,000. Subsequently, the investor acquired 5 addi-
tional shares through dividend reinvestment. During the fifteenth month after
the purchase, the investor decided to redeem $500 of his or her investment.
Assuming at the time of the redemption the net asset value had appreciated to
$12 per share, the value of the investor's shares would be $1,260 (105 shares
at $12 per share). The CDSC would not be applied to the amount which represents
appreciation ($200) and the value of the reinvested dividend shares ($60).
Therefore, $240 of the $500 redemption proceeds ($500 minus $260) would be
charged at a rate of 4.00% (the applicable rate for Class B shares) for a total
deferred sales charge of $9.60.
WAIVERS OF CDSC
The CDSC will be waived on: (a) exchanges (see "Exchange Privilege"); (b) au-
tomatic cash withdrawals in amounts equal to or less than 1.00% per month of
the value of the shareholder's shares at the time the withdrawal plan commences
(see "Automatic Cash Withdrawal Plan") (provided, however, that automatic cash
withdrawals in amounts equal to or less than 2.00% per month of the value of
the shareholder's shares will be permitted for withdrawal plans that were
established prior to November 7, 1994); (c) redemptions of shares within 12
months following the death or disability of the shareholder; (d) involuntary
redemptions; and (e) redemptions of shares in connection with a combination of
the Fund with any investment company by merger, acquisition of assets or other-
wise. In addition, a shareholder who has redeemed shares from other Smith Bar-
ney Mutual Funds may, under certain circumstances, reinvest all or part of the
redemption proceeds within 60 days and receive pro rata credit for any CDSC
imposed on the prior redemption.
CDSC waivers will be granted subject to confirmation (by Smith Barney in the
case of shareholders who are also Smith Barney clients or by the Transfer Agent
in the case of all other shareholders) of the shareholder's status or holdings,
as the case may be.

Class A Exchanges. Class A shares of Smith Barney Mutual Funds sold without a
sales charge or with a maximum sales charge of less than the maximum charged
by other Smith Barney Mutual Funds will be subject to the appropriate "sales
charge differential" upon the exchange of such shares for Class A shares of a
fund sold with a higher sales charge. The "sales charge differential" is lim-
ited to a percentage rate no greater than the excess of the sales charge rate
applicable to purchases of shares of the mutual fund being acquired in the
exchange over the sales charge rate(s) actually paid on the mutual fund shares
relinquished in the exchange and on any predecessor of those shares. For pur-
poses of the exchange privilege, shares obtained through automatic reinvest-
ment of dividends and capital gains distributions are treated as having paid
the same sales charges applicable to the shares on which the dividends or dis-
tributions were paid; however, if no sales charge was imposed upon the initial
purchase of shares, any shares obtained through automatic reinvestment will be
subject to a sales charge differential upon exchange.
Class B Exchanges. In the event a Class B shareholder (unless such share-
holder was a Class B shareholder of the Short-Term World Income Fund on July
15, 1994) wishes to exchange all or a portion of his or her shares in any of
the funds imposing a higher CDSC than that imposed by the Fund, the exchanged
Class B shares will be subject to the higher applicable CDSC. Upon an
exchange, the new Class B shares will be deemed to have been purchased on the
same date as the Class B shares of the Fund that have been exchanged.
Class C Exchanges. Upon an exchange, the new Class C shares will be deemed to
have been purchased on the same date as the Class C shares of the Fund that
have been exchanged.
Class Y Exchanges. Class Y shareholders of the Fund who wish to exchange all
or a portion of their Class Y shares for Class Y shares in any of the funds
identified above may do so without imposition of any charge.

EXCHANGE PRIVILEGE (CONTINUED)
Additional Information Regarding the Exchange Privilege.Although the exchange
privilege is an important benefit, excessive exchange transactions can be det-
rimental to the Fund's performance and its shareholders. The Fund may determine
that a pattern of frequent exchanges is excessive and contrary to the best
interests of its other shareholders. In this event, the Fund may, at its dis-
cretion, decide to limit additional purchases and/or exchanges by a sharehold-
er. Upon such a determination, the Fund will provide notice in writing or by
telephone to the shareholder at least 15 days prior to suspending the exchange
privilege and during the 15 day period the shareholder will be required to (a)
redeem his or her shares in the Fund or (b) remain invested in the Fund or
exchange into any of the Smith Barney Mutual Funds ordinarily available, which
position the shareholder would be expected to maintain for a significant period
of time. All relevant factors will be considered in determining what consti-
tutes an abusive pattern of exchanges.
Certain shareholders may be able to exchange shares by telephone. See "Re-
demption of Shares--Telephone Redemption and Exchange Program." Exchanges will
be processed at the net asset value next determined, plus any applicable sales
charge differential. Redemption procedures discussed below are also applicable
for exchanging shares, and exchanges will be made upon receipt of all support-
ing documents in proper form. If the account registration of the shares of the
fund being acquired is identical to the registration of the shares of the fund
exchanged, no signature guarantee is required. A capital gain or loss for tax
purposes will be realized upon the exchange, depending upon the cost or other
basis of shares redeemed. Before exchanging shares, investors should read the
current prospectus describing the shares to be acquired. The Fund reserves the
right to modify or discontinue exchange privileges upon 60 days' prior notice
to shareholders.
REDEMPTION OF SHARES
The Fund is required to redeem the shares of the Fund tendered to it, as
described below, at a redemption price equal to their net asset value per share
next determined after receipt of a written request in proper form at no charge
other than any applicable CDSC. Redemption requests received after the close of
regular trading on the NYSE are priced at the net asset value next determined.
37
<PAGE>
SMITH BARNEY
Managed Municipals Fund Inc.
REDEMPTION OF SHARES (CONTINUED)
If a shareholder holds shares in more than one Class, any request for
redemption must specify the Class being redeemed. In the event of a failure to
specify which Class, or if the investor owns fewer shares of the Class than
specified, the redemption request will be delayed until the Transfer Agent
receives further instructions from Smith Barney, or if the shareholder's
account is not with Smith Barney, from the shareholder directly. The redemp-
tion proceeds will be remitted on or before the third day following receipt of
proper tender, except on any days on which the NYSE is closed or as permitted
under the 1940 Act in extraordinary circumstances. Generally, if the redemp-
tion proceeds are remitted to a Smith Barney brokerage account, these funds
will not be invested for the shareholder's benefit without specific instruc-
tion and Smith Barney will benefit from the use of temporarily uninvested
funds. Redemption proceeds for shares purchased by check, other than a certi-
fied or official bank check, will be remitted upon clearance of the check,
which may take up to ten days or more.
Shares held by Smith Barney as custodian must be redeemed by submitting a
written request to a Smith Barney Financial Consultant. Shares other than
those held by Smith Barney as custodian may be redeemed through an investor's
Financial Consultant, Introducing Broker or a dealer in the selling group or
by submitting a written request for redemption to:
Smith Barney Managed Municipals Fund Inc.
Class A, B, C or Y (please specify)
c/o First Data Investor Services Group, Inc.
P.O. Box 9134
Boston, Massachusetts 02205-9134
A written redemption request must (a) state the Class and number or dollar
amount of shares to be redeemed, (b) identify the shareholder's account number
and (c) be signed by each registered owner exactly as the shares are regis-
tered. If the shares to be redeemed were issued in certificate form, the cer-
tificates must be endorsed for transfer (or be accompanied by an endorsed

request, share certificate or stock power must be guaranteed by an eligible
guarantor institution such as a domestic bank, savings and loan institution,

ees or guardians. A redemption request will not be deemed properly received
until the Transfer Agent receives all required documents in proper form.
TELEPHONE REDEMPTION AND EXCHANGE PROGRAM FOR SHAREHOLDERS WHO DO NOT HAVE A
SMITH BARNEY BROKERAGE ACCOUNT
Certain shareholders may be eligible to redeem and exchange Fund shares by
telephone. To determine if a shareholder is entitled to participate in this
program, he or she should contact the Transfer Agent at (800) 451-2010. Once
eligibility is confirmed, the shareholder must complete and return a
Telephone/Wire Authorization form, including a signature guarantee, that will
be provided by the Transfer Agent upon request. (Alternatively, an investor may
authorize telephone redemptions on the new account application with a signature
guarantee when making his/her initial investment in the Fund.)
Redemptions. Redemption requests of up to $10,000 of any class or classes of
the Fund's shares may be made by eligible shareholders by calling the Transfer
Agent at (800) 451-2010. Such requests may be made between 9:00 a.m. and 4:00
p.m. (New York City time) on any day the NYSE is open. Redemptions of shares
(i) by retirement plans or (ii) for which certificates have been issued are not
permitted under this program.
A shareholder will have the option of having the redemption proceeds mailed
to his/her address of record or wired to a bank account predesignated by the
shareholder. Generally, redemption proceeds will be mailed or wired, as the
case may be, on the next business day following the redemption request. In
order to use the wire procedures, the bank receiving the proceeds must be a
member of the Federal Reserve System or have a correspondent relationship with
a member bank. The Fund reserves the right to charge shareholders a nominal fee
for each wire redemption. Such charges, if any, will be assessed against the
shareholder's account from which shares were redeemed. In order to change the
bank account designated to receive redemption proceeds, a shareholder must com-
plete a new Telephone/Wire Authorization Form and, for the protection of the
shareholder's assets, will be required to provide a signature guarantee and
certain other documentation.
Exchanges. Eligible shareholders may make exchanges by telephone if the
account registration of the fund being acquired is identical to the registra-
tion of the shares of the fund exchanged. Such exchange requests may be made by
call-

Additional Information regarding Telephone Redemption and Exchange
Program.Neither the Fund nor its agents will be liable for following instruc-
tions communicated by telephone that are reasonably believed to be genuine.
The Fund and its agents will employ procedures designed to verify the identity
of the caller and legitimacy of instructions (for example, a shareholder's
name and account number will be required and phone calls may be recorded). The
Fund reserves the right to suspend, modify or discontinue the telephone
redemption and exchange program or to impose a charge for this service at any
time following at least seven (7) days' prior notice to shareholders.
AUTOMATIC CASH WITHDRAWAL PLAN
The Fund offers shareholders an automatic cash withdrawal plan, under which
shareholders who own shares with a value of at least $10,000 may elect to
receive cash payments of at least $50 monthly or quarterly. The withdrawal
plan will be carried over on exchanges between funds or Classes of the Fund.
Any applicable CDSC will not be waived on amounts withdrawn by a shareholder
that exceed 1.00% per month of the value of the shareholder's shares subject
to the CDSC at the time the withdrawal plan commences. (With respect to with-
drawal plans in effect prior to November 7, 1994, any applicable CDSC will be
waived on amounts withdrawn that do not exceed 2.00% per month of the share-
holder's shares subject to the CDSC.) For further information regarding the
automatic cash withdrawal plan, shareholders should contact a Smith Barney
Financial Consultant.
MINIMUM ACCOUNT SIZE
The Fund reserves the right to involuntarily liquidate any shareholder's
account in the Fund if the aggregate net asset value of the shares held in the
Fund account is less than $500. (If a shareholder has more than one account in
this Fund, each account must satisfy the minimum account size.) The Fund, how-
ever, will not redeem shares based solely on market reductions in net asset
value. Before the Fund exercises such right, shareholders will receive written
notice and will be permitted 60 days to bring accounts up to the minimum to
avoid automatic redemption.

PERFORMANCE
YIELD
From time to time, the Fund may advertise the 30-day "yield" and "equivalent
taxable yield" of each Class of shares. The yield refers to the income gener-
ated by an investment in those shares over the 30-day period identified in the
advertisement and is computed by dividing the net investment income per share
earned by the Class during the period by the maximum public offering price per
share on the last day of the period. This income is "annualized" by assuming
the amount of income is generated each month over a one-year period and is com-
pounded semi-annually. The annualized income is then shown as a percentage of
the net asset value.
The equivalent taxable yield demonstrates the yield on a taxable investment
necessary to produce an after-tax yield equal to the Fund's tax-exempt yield
for each Class. It is calculated by increasing the yield shown for the Class to
the extent necessary to reflect the payment of taxes at specified tax rates.
Thus, the equivalent taxable yield always will exceed the Fund's yield. For
more information on equivalent taxable yields, refer to the table under "Divi-
dends, Distributions and Taxes."
TOTAL RETURN
From time to time the Fund may include its total return, average annual total
return and current dividend return in advertisements and/or other types of
sales literature. These figures are computed separately for Class A, Class B,
Class C and Class Y shares of the Fund. These figures are based on historical
earnings and are not intended to indicate future performance. Total return is
computed for a specified period of time assuming deduction of the maximum sales
charge, if any, from the initial amount invested and reinvestment of all income
dividends and capital gain distributions on the reinvestment dates at prices
calculated as stated in this Prospectus, then dividing the value of the invest-
ment at the end of the period so calculated by the initial amount invested and
subtracting 100%. The standard average annual total return, as prescribed by
the SEC, is derived from this total return, which provides the ending redeem-
able value. Such standard total return information may also be accompanied with
nonstandard total return information for differing periods computed in the same
manner but without annualizing the total return or taking sales charges into
account. The Fund calculates current dividend return for each Class by
annualizing the most recent monthly distribution and dividing by the net asset
value or the maximum public offering price (including sales charge) on the last
41

day of the period for which current dividend return is presented. The current
dividend return for each Class may vary from time to time depending on market
conditions, the composition of its investment portfolio and operating
expenses. These factors and possible differences in the methods used in calcu-
lating current dividend return should be considered when comparing a Class'
current return to yields published for other investment companies and other
investment vehicles. The Fund may also include comparative performance infor-
mation in advertising or marketing its shares. Such performance information
may include data from Lipper Analytical Services, Inc. or similar independent
services that monitor the performance of mutual funds, or other industry
publications.
MANAGEMENT OF THE FUND

DISTRIBUTOR
Smith Barney is located at 388 Greenwich Street, New York, New York 10013.
Smith Barney distributes shares of the Fund as principal underwriter and as
such conducts a continuous offering pursuant to a "best efforts" arrangement
requiring Smith Barney to take and pay for only such securities as may be sold
to the public. Pursuant to a plan of distribution adopted by the Fund under
Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act (the "Plan"), Smith Barney is paid a service fee
with respect to Class A, Class B and Class C shares of the Fund at the annual
rate of 0.15% of the average daily net assets of the respective Class. Smith
Barney is also paid a distribution fee with respect to Class B and Class C
shares at the annual rate of 0.50% and 0.55%, respectively, of the average
daily net assets attributable to those Classes. Class B shares which automati-
cally convert to Class A shares eight years after the date of original pur-
chase will no longer be subject to a distribution fee. The fees are used by
Smith Barney to pay its Financial Consultants for servicing shareholder
accounts and, in the case of Class B and Class C shares, to cover expenses
primarily intended to result in the sale of those shares. These expenses
include: advertising expenses; the cost of printing and mailing prospectuses
to potential investors; payments to and expenses of Smith Barney Financial
Consultants and other persons who provide support services in connection with
the distribution of shares; interest and/or carrying charges; and indirect and
overhead costs of Smith Barney associated with the sale of Fund shares,
including lease, utility, communications and sales promotion expenses.
The payments to Smith Barney Financial Consultants for selling shares of a
Class include a commission or fee paid by the investor or Smith Barney at the
time of sale and, with respect to Class A, Class B and Class C shares, a con-
tinuing fee for servicing shareholder accounts for as long as a shareholder
remains a holder of that Class. Smith Barney Financial Consultants may receive
different levels of compensation for selling different Classes of shares.
Payments under the Plan with respect to Class B and Class C shares are not
tied exclusively to the distribution and shareholder service expenses actually
incurred by Smith Barney and the payments may exceed distribution expenses
actually incurred. The Fund's Board of Directors will evaluate the appropri-
ateness of the Plan and its payment terms on a continuing basis and in so
doing will consider all relevant factors, including expenses borne by Smith
Barney, amounts received under the Plan and proceeds of the CDSC.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
The Fund was incorporated under the laws of the State of Maryland on Septem-
ber 16, 1980, and is registered with the SEC as a diversified, open-end manage-
ment investment company.
Each Class of the Fund's shares represents an identical interest in the
Fund's investment portfolio. As a result, the Classes have the same rights,
privileges and preferences, except with respect to: (a) the designation of each
Class; (b) the effect of the respective sales charges for each Class; (c) the
distribution and/or service fees borne by each Class; (d) the expenses alloca-
ble exclusively to each Class; (e) voting rights on matters exclusively affect-
ing a single Class; (f) the exchange privilege of each Class; and (g) the con-
version feature of the Class B shares. The Board of Directors does not antici-
pate that there will be any conflicts among the interests of the holders of the
different Classes. The Directors, on an ongoing basis, will consider whether
any such conflict exists and, if so, take appropriate action.
The Fund does not hold annual shareholder meetings. There normally will be no
meetings of shareholders for the purpose of electing Directors unless and until
such time as less than a majority of the Directors holding office have been
elected by shareholders. The Directors will call a meeting for any purpose upon
written request of shareholders holding at least 10% of the Fund's outstanding
shares and the Fund will assist shareholders in calling such a meeting as
required by the 1940 Act. When matters are submitted for shareholder vote,
shareholders of each Class will have one vote for each full share owned and a
proportionate, fractional vote for any fractional share held of that Class.
Generally, shares of the Fund will be voted on a Fund-wide basis on all matters
except matters affecting only the interests of one Class.
PNC, located at 17th and Chestnut Streets, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 19103,
serves as custodian of the Fund's investments.
The Transfer Agent, located at Exchange Place, Boston, Massachusetts 02109,
serves as the Fund's transfer agent.
The Fund sends to each of its shareholders a semi-annual report and an
audited annual report, which include listings of the investment securities held
by the Fund at the end of the reporting period. In an effort to reduce the
Fund's printing and mailing costs, the Fund plans to consolidate the mailing of
its semi-annual and annual reports by household. This consolidation means that
a household having multiple accounts with the identical address of record will

agent fees; certain insurance premiums; outside auditing and legal expenses;
costs of maintaining corporate existence; costs of investor services
(including allocated telephone and personnel expenses); costs of preparing and
printing of prospectuses for regulatory purposes and for distribution to
existing shareholders; costs of shareholders' reports and shareholder
meetings; and meetings of the officers or Board of Directors of the Fund.
SBMFM has agreed that if in any fiscal year the aggregate expenses of the
Fund (including fees pursuant to the Advisory Agreement and Administration
Agreement, but excluding interest, taxes, brokerage fees paid pursuant to the
Fund's services and distribution plan, and, with the prior written consent of
the necessary state securities commissions, extraordinary expenses) exceed the
expense limitation of any state having jurisdiction over the Fund, SBMFM will,
to the extent required by state law, reduce its fees by the amount of such
excess expenses. Such fee reductions, if any, will be reconciled on a monthly
basis. The most restrictive state limitation currently applicable to the Fund
would require SBMFM to reduce its fees in any year that such expenses exceed
2.50% of the first $30 million of average daily net assets, 2.00% of the next
$70 million of average daily net assets and 1.50% of the remaining average
daily net assets. No fee reduction was required for the 1996, 1995 and 1994
fiscal years.
Counsel and Auditors
Willkie Farr & Gallagher serves as legal counsel to the Fund. The Independent
Directors of the Fund have selected Stroock & Stroock & Lavan as their legal
counsel.
KPMG Peat Marwick LLP, 345 Park Avenue, New York, New York 10154, has been
selected as the Fund's independent auditor to examine and report on the Fund's
financial statements and highlights for the fiscal year ending February 28,
1997.
INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE AND MANAGEMENT POLICIES
The Prospectus discusses the Fund's investment objective and the policies it
employs to achieve its objective. The following discussion supplements the
description of the Fund's investment objective and management policies in the
Prospectus. For purposes of this Statement of Additional Information,
intermediate- and long-term debt obligations issued by or on behalf of states,
territories and possessions of the United States and the District of Columbia
and their political subdivisions, agencies or instrumentalities, or multistate
agencies or authorities, are collectively referred to as "Municipal Bonds.''
Ratings as Investment Criteria
In general, the ratings of Moody's Investors Service, Inc. ("Moody's") and
Standard & Poor's Corporation ("S&P") represent the opinions of those agencies
as to the quality of the Municipal Bonds and short-term investments which they
rate. It should be emphasized, however, that such ratings are relative and
subjective, are not absolute standards of quality and do not evaluate the
market risk of securities. These ratings will be used by the Fund as initial
criteria for the selection of portfolio securities, but the Fund also will
rely upon the independent advice of SBMFM to evaluate potential investments.
Among the factors that will be considered are the long-term ability of the
issuer to pay principal and interest and general economic trends. To the
extent the Fund invests in lower-rated and comparable unrated securities, the
Fund's achievement of its investment objective may be more dependent on
SBMFM's credit analysis of such securities than would be the case for a
portfolio consisting entirely of higher-rated securities. The Appendix
contains further information concerning the ratings of Moody's and S&P and
their significance.
Subsequent to its purchase by the Fund, an issue of Municipal Bonds may
cease to be rated or its rating may be reduced below the rating given at the
time the securities were acquired by the Fund. Neither event will require the
sale of such Municipal Bonds by the Fund, but SBMFM will consider such event
in its determination of whether the Fund should continue to hold such
Municipal Bonds. In addition, to the extent the ratings change as a result of
changes in such organizations in their rating systems or due to a corporate
restructuring of Moody's or S&P, the Fund will attempt to use comparable
ratings as standards for its investments in accordance with its investment
objective and policies.
The Fund may invest up to 25% of its total assets in securities rated below
A, MIG 3 or Prime-1 (P-1) by Moody's or A, SP-2 or A-3 by S&P, or in unrated
securities of comparable quality. Such securities (a) will likely have some
quality and protective characteristics that, in the judgment of rating
organizations, are outweighed by large uncertainties or major risk exposures
to adverse conditions and (b) are predominantly speculative with respect to
the issuer's capacity to pay interest and repay principal in accordance with
the terms of the obligation.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Fund shall not invest more than 10% of
its assets in securities (excluding those subject to Rule 144A under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933 Act")), that are determined to
be illiquid by SBMFM.
Temporary Investments
When the Fund is maintaining a defensive position, the Fund may invest in
short-term investments ("Temporary Investments") consisting of (a) the
following tax-exempt securities: notes of municipal issuers having, at the
time of purchase, a rating within the three highest grades of Moody's or S&P
or, if not rated, having an issue of outstanding Municipal Bonds rated within
the three highest grades by Moody's or S&P and (b) the following taxable
securities: obligations of the United States government, its agencies or
instrumentalities ("U.S. government securities"), repurchase agreements, other
debt securities rated within the three highest grades by Moody's and S&P,
commercial paper rated in the highest grade by either of such rating services,
and certificates of deposit of domestic banks with assets of $1 billion or
more. The Fund may invest in Temporary Investments for defensive reasons in
anticipation of a market decline. At no time will more than 20% of the Fund's
total assets be invested in Temporary Investments unless the Fund has adopted
a defensive investment policy. The Fund intends, however, to purchase tax-
exempt Temporary Investments pending the investment of the proceeds of the
sale of portfolio securities or shares of the Fund's common stock, or in order
to have highly liquid securities available to meet anticipated redemptions.
Since the commencement of its operations, the Fund has not found it necessary
to purchase taxable Temporary Investments.
Repurchase Agreements. The Fund may engage in repurchase agreements with
banks which are the issuers of instruments acceptable for purchase by the Fund
and with certain dealers on the Federal Reserve Bank of New York's list of
reporting dealers. A repurchase agreement is a contract under which the buyer
of a security simultaneously commits to resell the security to the seller at
an agreed-upon price on an agreed-upon date. Under the terms of a typical
repurchase agreement, the Fund would acquire an underlying debt obligation for
a relatively short period (usually not more than one week) subject to an
obligation of the seller to repurchase, and the Fund to resell, the obligation
at an agreed-upon price and time, thereby determining the yield during the
Fund's holding period. This arrangement results in a fixed rate of return that
is not subject to market fluctuations during the Fund's holding period. The
value of the underlying securities will be at least equal at all times to the
total amount of the repurchase obligation, including interest. Repurchase
agreements could involve certain risks in the event of default or insolvency
of the other party, including possible delays or restrictions upon the Fund's
ability to dispose of the underlying securities, the risk of a possible
decline in the value of the underlying securities during the period in which
the Fund seeks to assert its rights to them, the risk of incurring expenses
associated with asserting those rights and the risk of losing all or part of
the income from the agreement. SBMFM, acting under the supervision of the
Fund's Board of Directors, reviews on an ongoing basis the value of the
collateral and the creditworthiness of those banks and dealers with which the
Fund enters into repurchase agreements to evaluate potential risks.
Investment Restrictions
The Fund has adopted the following investment restrictions for the protection
of shareholders. Restrictions 1 through 8 cannot be changed without approval
by the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of the Fund, defined as
the lesser of (a) 67% of the Fund's shares present at a meeting if the holders
of more than 50% of the outstanding shares of the Fund are present or
represented by proxy or (b) more than 50% of the Fund's outstanding shares.
The remaining restrictions may be changed by the Board of Directors at any
time. The Fund may not:
1. With respect to 75% of the value of its total assets, invest more than
5% of its total assets in securities of any one issuer, except securities
issued or guaranteed by the United States government, or purchase more than
10% of the outstanding voting securities of such issuer.
2. Issue senior securities as defined in the 1940 Act and any rules and
orders thereunder, except insofar as the Fund may be deemed to have issued
senior securities by reason of: (a) borrowing money or purchasing
securities on a when-issued or delayed-delivery basis; (b) purchasing or
selling futures contracts and options on futures contracts and other
similar instruments; and (c) issuing separate classes of shares.
3. Invest more than 25% of its total assets in securities, the issuers of
which are in the same industry. For purposes of this limitation, U.S.
government securities and securities of state or municipal governments and
their political subdivisions are not considered to be issued by members of
any industry.
4. Borrow money, except that the Fund may borrow from banks for temporary
or emergency (not leveraging) purposes, including the meeting of redemption
requests which might otherwise require the untimely disposition of
securities, in an amount not exceeding 10% of the value of the Fund's total
assets (including the amount borrowed) valued at market less liabilities
(not including the amount borrowed) at the time the borrowing is made.
Whenever borrowings exceed 5% of the value of the Fund's total assets, the
Fund will not make additional investments.
5. Make loans. This restriction does not apply to: (a) the purchase of debt
obligations in which the Fund may invest consistent with its investment
objectives and policies; (b) repurchase agreements; and (c) loans of its
portfolio securities.
6. Engage in the business of underwriting securities issued by other
persons, except to the extent that the Fund may technically be deemed to be
an underwriter under the 1933 Act, in disposing of portfolio securities.
7. Purchase or sell real estate, real estate mortgages, real estate
investment trust securities, commodities or commodity contracts, but this
shall not prevent the Fund from: (a) investing in securities of issuers
engaged in the real estate business and securities which are secured by
real estate or interests therein; (b) holding or selling real estate
received in connection with securities it holds; or (c) trading in futures
contracts and options on futures contracts.
8. Purchase any securities on margin (except for such short-term credits as
are necessary for the clearance of purchases and sales of portfolio
securities) or sell any securities short (except against the box). For
purposes of this restriction, the deposit or payment by the Fund of initial
or maintenance margin in connection with futures contracts and related
options and options on securities is not considered to be the purchase of a
security on margin.
9. Purchase or otherwise acquire any security if, as a result, more than
15% of its net assets would be invested in securities that are illiquid.
10. Invest more than 5% of the value of its total assets in the securities
of issuers having a record, including predecessors, of less than three
years of continuous operation, except U.S. government securities. (For
purposes of this restriction, issuers include predecessors, sponsors,
controlling persons, general guarantors and originators of underlying
assets.)
11. Invest in companies for the purpose of exercising control.
12. Invest in securities of other investment companies, except as they may
be acquired as part of a merger, consolidation or acquisition of assets and
except for the purchase, to the extent permitted by Section 12 of the 1940
Act, of shares of registered unit investment trusts whose assets consist
substantially of Municipal Bonds.
13. Purchase or sell oil and gas interests.
14. Engage in the purchase and sale of put, call, straddle or spread
options or in writing of such options, except that the Fund may purchase
and sell options on interest rate futures contracts.
Certain restrictions listed above permit the Fund without shareholder
approval to engage in investment practices that the Fund does not currently
pursue. The Fund has no present intention of altering its current investment
practices as otherwise described in the Prospectus and this Statement of
Additional Information and any future change in those practices would require
Board approval and appropriate disclosure to investors.
For the purposes of Investment Restriction 3, private activity bonds, where
the payment of principal and interest is the ultimate responsibility of
companies within the same industry, are grouped together as an "industry."
If any percentage restriction described above is complied with at the time
of investment, a later increase or decrease in percentage resulting from a
change in the value of the assets will not constitute a violation of such
restriction. In order to permit the sale of the Fund's shares in certain
states, the Fund may make commitments more restrictive than the restrictions
listed above. Should the Fund determine that any such commitment is no longer
in the best interests of the Fund and its shareholders, it will revoke the
commitment by terminating sales of its shares in the state involved.
Portfolio Transactions
Decisions to buy and sell securities for the Fund are made by SBMFM,
subject to the overall supervision and review of the Fund's Board of
Directors. Portfolio securities transactions are effected by or under the
supervision of SBMFM.
Newly issued securities normally are purchased directly from the issuer or
from an underwriter acting as a principal. Other purchases and sales usually
are placed with those dealers from which it appears that the best price or
execution will be obtained; those dealers may be acting as either agents or
principals. The purchase price paid by the Fund to underwriters of newly
issued securities usually includes a concession paid by the issuer to the
underwriter, and purchases of after-market securities from dealers normally
are executed at a price between the bid and asked prices. For the 1996, 1995
and 1994 fiscal years, the Fund paid $149,343, $306,677 and $173,250,
respectively, in brokerage commissions. The reason for the material difference
between the aggregate dollar amounts paid by the Fund in brokerage commissions
in the last two fiscal years is that the volume of futures transactions
engaged in by the Fund was substantially higher in the 1995 than 1996 fiscal
years in reasponse to market conditions.
Allocation of transactions, including their frequency, to various dealers
is determined by SBMFM in its best judgment and in a manner deemed fair and
reasonable to shareholders. The primary considerations are the availability of
the desired security and the prompt execution of orders in an effective manner
at the most favorable prices. Subject to these considerations, dealers which
provide supplemental investment research and statistical or other services to
SBMFM may receive orders for transactions by the Fund. Information so received
enables SBMFM to supplement its own research and analysis with the views and
information of other securities firms. Such information may be useful to SBMFM
in serving both the Fund and its other clients, and, conversely, supplemental
information obtained by the placement of business of other clients may be
useful to SBMFM in carrying out its obligations to the Fund.
The Fund will not purchase Municipal Bonds during the existence of any
underwriting or selling group relating thereto of which SBMFM is a member,
except to the extent permitted by the SEC. Under certain circumstances, the
Fund may be at a disadvantage because of this limitation in comparison with
other investment companies which have a similar investment objective but which
are not subject to this limitation.
While investment decisions for the Fund are made independently from those
of the other accounts managed by SBMFM, investments of the type the Fund may
make also may be made by such other accounts. When the Fund and one or more
other accounts managed by SBMFM are prepared to invest in, or desire to
dispose of, the same security, available investments or opportunities for
sales will be allocated in a manner believed by SBMFM to be equitable to each.
In some cases this procedure may adversely affect the price paid or received
by the Fund or the size of the position obtained or disposed of by the Fund.
Portfolio Turnover
While the Fund's portfolio turnover rate (the lesser of purchases or sales of
portfolio securities during the year, excluding purchases or sales of short-
term securities, divided by the monthly average value of portfolio securities)
is generally not expected to exceed 100%, it has in the past exceeded 100%.
The rate of turnover will not be a limiting factor, however, when the Fund
deems it desirable to sell or purchase securities. This policy should not
result in higher brokerage commissions to the Fund, as purchases and sales of
portfolio securities are usually effected as principal transactions.
Securities may be sold in anticipation of a rise in interest rates (market
decline) or purchased in anticipation of a decline in interest rates (market
rise) and later sold. In addition, a security may be sold and another security
of comparable quality purchased at approximately the same time to take
advantage of what the Fund believes to be a temporary disparity in the normal
yield relationship between the two securities. These yield disparities may
occur for reasons not directly related to the investment quality of particular
issues or the general movement of interest rates, such as changes in the
overall demand for, or supply of, various types of tax-exempt securities. For
the 1996 and 1995 fiscal years, the Fund's portfolio turnover rates were 80%
and 100%, respectively.
MUNICIPAL BONDS
General Information
Municipal Bonds generally are understood to include debt obligations issued to
obtain funds for various public purposes, including construction of a wide
range of public facilities, refunding of outstanding obligations, payment of
general operating expenses and extensions of loans to public institutions and
facilities. Private activity bonds that are issued by or on behalf of public
authorities to finance various privately operated facilities are included
within the term Municipal Bonds if the interest paid thereon qualifies as
excluded from gross income (but not necessarily from alternative minimum
taxable income) for Federal income tax purposes in the opinion of bond counsel
to the issuer.
In order to be classified as a diversified investment company under the
1940 Act, the Fund may not, with respect to 75% of its assets, invest more
than 5% of its total assets in the securities of any one issuer (except U.S.
government securities) or own more than 10% of the outstanding voting
securities of any one
issuer. For the purposes of diversification under the 1940 Act, the
identification of the issuer of Municipal Bonds depends upon the terms and
conditions of the security. When the assets and revenues of an agency,
authority, instrumentality or other political subdivision are separate from
those of the government creating the issuing entity and the security is backed
only by the assets and revenues of such entity, such entity is deemed to be
the sole issuer. Similarly, in the case of a private activity bond, if that
bond is backed only by the assets and revenues of the nongovernmental user,
then such nongovernmental user is deemed to be the sole issuer. If, however,
in either case, the creating government or some other entity guarantees a
security, such a guarantee would be considered a separate security and is to
be treated as an issue of such government or other entity.
The yield on Municipal Bonds is dependent on a variety of factors,
including general economic and monetary conditions, general money market
factors, general conditions of the Municipal Bond market, the financial
condition of the issuer, the size of a particular offering, maturity of the
obligation offered and the rating of the issue.
Municipal Bonds also may be subject to the provisions of bankruptcy,
insolvency and other laws affecting the rights and remedies of creditors, such
as the Federal Bankruptcy Code, and laws, if any, which may be enacted by
Congress or state legislatures extending the time for payment of principal or
interest, or both, or imposing other constraints upon enforcement of such
obligations or upon the ability of municipalities to levy taxes. The
possibility also exists that, as a result of litigation or other conditions,
the power or ability of any one or more issuers to pay, when due, the
principal of and interest on, its or their Municipal Bonds may be materially
and adversely affected.
When-Issued Securities
The Fund may purchase Municipal Bonds on a "when-issued" basis (i.e., for
delivery beyond the normal settlement date at a stated price and yield). The
payment obligation and the interest rate that will be received on the
Municipal Bonds purchased on a when-issued basis are each fixed at the time
the buyer enters into the commitment. Although the Fund will purchase
Municipal Bonds on a when-issued basis only with the intention of actually
acquiring the securities, the Fund may sell these securities before the
settlement date if it is deemed advisable as a matter of investment strategy.
Municipal Bonds are subject to changes in value based upon the public's
perception of the creditworthiness of the issuers and changes, real or
anticipated, in the level of interest rates. In general, Municipal Bonds tend
to appreciate when interest rates decline and depreciate when interest rates
rise. Purchasing Municipal Bonds on a when-issued basis, therefore, can
involve the risk that the yields available in the market when the delivery
takes place actually may be higher than those obtained in the transaction
itself. To account for this risk, a segregated account of the Fund consisting
of cash or liquid debt securities equal to the amount of the when-issued
commitments will be established at the Fund's custodian bank. For the purpose
of determining the adequacy of the securities in the account, the deposited
securities will be valued at market or fair value. If the market or fair value
of such securities declines, additional cash or securities will be placed in
the account on a daily basis so that the value of the account will equal the
amount of such commitments by the Fund. Placing securities rather than cash in
the segregated account may have a leveraging effect on the Fund's net assets.
That is, to the extent the Fund remains substantially fully invested in
securities at the same time it has committed to purchase securities on a when-
issued basis, there will be greater fluctuations in its net assets than if it
had set aside cash to satisfy its purchase commitments. Upon the settlement
date of the when-issued securities, the Fund will meet its obligations from
then-available cash flow, sale of securities held in the segregated account,
sale of other securities or, although it normally would not expect to do so,
from the sale of the when-issued securities themselves (which may have a value
greater or less than the Fund's payment obligations). Sales of securities to
meet such obligations may involve the realization of capital gains, which are
not exempt from Federal income taxes.
When the Fund engages in when-issued transactions, it relies on the seller
to consummate the trade. Failure of the seller to do so may result in the
Fund's incurring a loss or missing an opportunity to obtain a price considered
to be advantageous.
Municipal Leases
Municipal leases are municipal securities that may take the form of a lease or
an installment purchase contract issued by state and local government
authorities to obtain funds to acquire a wide variety of equipment and
facilities such as fire and sanitation vehicles, computer equipment and other
capital assets. These obligations have evolved to make it possible for state
and local government authorities to acquire property and equipment without
meeting constitutional and statutory requirements for the issuance of debt.
Thus, municipal leases have special risks not normally associated with
Municipal Bonds. These obligations frequently contain "non-appropriation"
clauses that provide that the governmental issuer of the municipal lease has
no obligation to make future payments under the lease or contract unless money
is appropriated for such purposes by the legislative body on a yearly or other
periodic basis. In addition to the non-appropriation risk, municipal leases
represent a type of financing that has not yet developed the depth of
marketability associated with Municipal Bonds; moreover, although the
obligations will be secured by the leased equipment, the disposition of the
equipment in the event of foreclosure might prove difficult. In order to limit
the risks, the Fund will purchase either (a) municipal leases that are rated
in the four highest categories by Moody's or S&P or (b) unrated municipal
leases that are purchased principally from domestic banks or other responsible
third parties that have entered into an agreement with the Fund providing the
seller will either remarket or repurchase the municipal leases within a short
period after demand by the Fund.
PURCHASE OF SHARES
Volume Discounts
The schedule of sales charges on Class A shares described in the Prospectus
applies to purchases made by any "purchaser," which is defined to include the
following: (a) an individual; (b) an individual's spouse and his or her
children purchasing shares for his or her own account; (c) a trustee or other
fiduciary purchasing shares for a single trust estate or single fiduciary
account; (d) a pension, profit-sharing or other employee benefit plan
qualified under Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended (the "Code"), and qualified employee benefit plans of employers who
are "affiliated persons" of each other within the meaning of the 1940 Act; (e)
tax-exempt organizations enumerated in Section 501(c)(3) or (13) of the Code;
and (f) a trustee or other professional fiduciary (including a bank, or an
investment adviser registered with the SEC under the Investment Advisers Act
of 1940, as amended) purchasing shares of the Fund for one or more trust
estates or fiduciary accounts. Purchasers who wish to combine purchase orders
to take advantage of volume discounts should contact a Smith Barney Financial
Consultant.
Combined Right of Accumulation
Reduced sales charges, in accordance with the schedule in the Prospectus,
apply to any purchase of Class A shares if the aggregate investment in Class A
shares of the Fund and in Class A shares of other Smith Barney Mutual Funds
that are offered with a sales charge, including the purchase being made, of
any purchaser, is $25,000 or more. The reduced sales charge is subject to
confirmation of the shareholder's holdings through a check of appropriate
records. The Fund reserves the right to terminate or amend the combined right
of accumulation at any time after written notice to shareholders. For further
information regarding the right of accumulation, shareholders should contact a
Smith Barney Financial Consultant.
Determination of Public Offering Price
The Fund offers its shares to the public on a continuous basis. The public
offering price for a Class A and Class Y share of the Fund is equal to the net
asset value per share at the time of purchase, plus for Class A shares an
initial sales charge based on the aggregate amount of the investment. The
public offering price for a Class B and Class C share (and Class A share
purchases, including applicable rights of accumulation, equaling or exceeding
$500,000), is equal to the net asset value per share at the time of purchase
and no sales charge is imposed at the time of purchase. A contingent deferred
sales charge ("CDSC"), however, is imposed on certain redemptions of Class B
and Class C shares, and Class A shares when purchased in amounts exceeding
$500,000. The method of computation of the public offering price is shown in
the Fund's financial statements, incorporated by reference in their entirety
into this Statement of Additional Information.
REDEMPTION OF SHARES
The right of redemption may be suspended or the date of payment postponed (a)
for any period during which the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. ("NYSE") is
closed (other than for customary weekend and holiday closings), (b) when
trading in markets the Fund normally utilizes is restricted, or an emergency
exists, as determined by the SEC, so that disposal of the Fund's investments
or determination of net asset value is not reasonably practicable or (c) for
such other periods as the SEC by order may permit for protection of the Fund's
shareholders.
Distribution in Kind
If the Board of Directors of the Fund determines that it would be detrimental
to the best interests of the remaining shareholders to make a redemption
payment wholly in cash, the Fund may pay, in accordance with SEC rules, any
portion of a redemption in excess of the lesser of $250,000 or 1% of the
Fund's net assets by a distribution in kind of portfolio securities in lieu of
cash. Securities issued as a distribution in kind may incur brokerage
commissions when shareholders subsequently sell those securities.
Automatic Cash Withdrawal Plan
An automatic cash withdrawal plan (the "Withdrawal Plan") is available to
shareholders who own shares with a value of at least $10,000 and who wish to
receive specific amounts of cash monthly or quarterly. Withdrawals of at least
$50 may be made under the Withdrawal Plan by redeeming as many shares of the
Fund as may be necessary to cover the stipulated withdrawal payment. Any
applicable CDSC will not be waived on amounts withdrawn by shareholders that
exceed 1.00% per month of the value of a shareholder's shares at the time the
Withdrawal Plan commences. (With respect to Withdrawal Plans in effect prior
to November 7, 1994, any applicable CDSC will be waived on amounts withdrawn
that do not exceed 2.00% per month of the value of a shareholder's shares at
the time the Withdrawal Plan commences.) To the extent withdrawals exceed
dividends, distributions and appreciation of a shareholder's investment in the
Fund, there will be a reduction in the value of the shareholder's investment,
and continued withdrawal payments will reduce the shareholder's investment and
may ultimately exhaust it. Withdrawal payments should not be considered as
income from investment in the Fund. Furthermore, as it generally would not be
advantageous to a shareholder to make additional investments in the Fund at
the same time he or she is participating in the Withdrawal Plan, purchases by
such shareholders in amounts of less than $5,000 ordinarily will not be
permitted.
Shareholders who wish to participate in the Withdrawal Plan and who hold
their shares in certificate form must deposit their share certificates with
the Transfer Agent as agent for Withdrawal Plan members. All dividends and
distributions on shares in the Withdrawal Plan are reinvested automatically at
net asset value in additional shares of the Fund. Withdrawal Plans should be
set up with a Smith Barney Financial Consultant. A shareholder who purchases
shares directly through the Transfer Agent may continue to do so and
applications for participation in the Withdrawal Plan must be received by the
Transfer Agent no later than the eighth day of the month to be eligible for
participation beginning with that month's withdrawal. For additional
information, shareholders should contact a Smith Barney Financial Consultant.
DISTRIBUTOR
Smith Barney serves as the Fund's distributor on a best efforts basis pursuant
to a written agreement dated July 30, 1993 (the "Distribution Agreement"),
which was most recently approved by the Fund's Board of Directors on July 19,
1995. For the 1994, 1995 and 1996 fiscal years, Smith Barney or its
predecessor, Shearson Lehman Brothers, received $4,194,780, $2,699,875 and
$3,302,000, respectively, in sales charges for the sale of the Fund's Class A
shares, and did not reallow any portion thereof to dealers. For the 1995
fiscal year, Smith Barney received $62,000 of CDSC on redemption of the Fund's
Class A shares. For the 1994, 1995 and 1996 fiscal years, Smith Barney or
Shearson Lehman Brothers received $264,245, $1,074,440 and $1,097,000,
respectively, representing CDSC on redemption of the Fund's Class B shares.
For the period ended February 28, 1995 and the fiscal year ended February 29,
1996, Smith Barney received $1,005 and $6,000, respectively, representing CDSC
on redemption of the Fund's Class C shares.
When payment is made by the investor before settlement date, unless
otherwise requested in writing by the investor, the funds will be held as a
free credit balance in the investor's brokerage account and Smith Barney may
benefit from the temporary use of the funds. The investor may designate
another use for the funds prior to settlement date, such as an investment in a
money market fund (other than Smith Barney Exchange Reserve Fund) of the Smith
Barney Mutual Funds. If the investor instructs Smith Barney to invest the
funds in a Smith Barney money market fund, the amount of the investment will
be included as part of the average daily net assets of both the Fund and the
money market fund, and affiliates of Smith Barney that serve the funds in an
investment advisory or administrative capacity will benefit from the fact that
they are receiving fees from both such investment companies for managing these
assets, computed on the basis of their average daily net assets. The Fund's
Board of Directors has been advised of the benefits to Smith Barney resulting
from these settlement procedures and will take such benefits into
consideration when reviewing the Advisory, Administration and Distribution
Agreements for continuance.
For the fiscal year ended February 29, 1996, Smith Barney incurred
distribution expenses totaling approximately $14,825,740 consisting of
approximately $888,932 for advertising, $75,683 for printing and mailing of
prospectuses, $5,429,716 for support services, $8,199,075 to Smith Barney
Financial Consultants and $232,334 in accruals for interest on the excess of
Smith Barney expenses incurred in distribution of the Fund's shares over the
sum of the distribution fees and CDSC received by Smith Barney from the Fund.
Distribution Arrangements
To compensate Smith Barney for the services it provides and for the expense
it bears under the Distribution Agreement, the Fund has adopted a services and
distribution plan (the "Plan") pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act.
Under the Plan, the Fund pays Smith Barney a service fee, accrued daily and
paid monthly, calculated at the annual rate of 0.15% of the value of the
Fund's average daily net assets attributable to the Class A, Class B and Class
C shares. In addition, the Fund pays Smith Barney a distribution fee with
respect to the Class B and Class C shares primarily intended to compensate
Smith Barney for its initial expense of paying its Financial Consultants a
commission upon sales of those shares. The Class B distribution fee is
calculated at the annual rate of 0.50% of the value of the Fund's average net
assets attributable to the shares of the Class. The Class C distribution fee
is calculated at the annual rate of 0.55% of the value of the Fund's average
net assets attributable to the shares of the Class.
The following service and distribution fees were incurred during the fiscal
years ended as indicated:

For the 1994, 1995 and 1996 fiscal years, Smith Barney and/or its
predecessor, Shearson Lehman Brothers, received $4,063,921, $5,391,438 and
$6,882,959, respectively, in the aggregate from the Plan.
Under its terms, the Plan continues from year to year, provided such
continuance is approved annually by vote of the Board of Directors, including
a majority of the Independent Directors who have no direct or indirect
financial interest in the operation of the Plan or in the Distribution
Agreement. The Plan may not be amended to increase the amount of the service
and distribution fees without shareholder approval, and all amendments of the
Plan also must be approved by the Directors and the Independent Directors in
the manner described above. The Plan may be terminated with respect to a Class
at any time, without penalty, by vote of a majority of the Independent
Directors or by vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the
Class (as defined in the 1940 Act). Pursuant to the Plan, Smith Barney will
provide the Board of Directors with periodic reports of amounts expended under
the Plan and the purpose for which such expenditures were made.
VALUATION OF SHARES
Each Class' net asset value per share is calculated on each day, Monday
through Friday, except days on which the NYSE is closed. The NYSE currently is
scheduled to be closed on New Year's Day, Presidents' Day, Good Friday,
Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving and Christmas, and on
the preceding Friday or subsequent Monday when one of these holidays falls on
a Saturday or Sunday, respectively. Because of the differences in distribution
fees and Class-specific expenses, the per share net asset value of each Class
may differ. The following is a description of the procedures used by the Fund
in valuing its assets.
The valuation of the Fund's assets is made by SBMFM after consultation with
an independent pricing service (the "Service") approved by the Board of
Directors. When, in the judgment of the Service, quoted bid prices for
investments are readily available and are representative of the bid side of
the market, these investments are valued at the mean between the quoted bid
and asked prices. Investments for which, in the judgment of the Service, there
is no readily obtainable market quotation (which may constitute a majority of
the portfolio securities) are carried at fair value as determined by the
Service. For the most part, such investments are liquid and may be readily
sold. The Service may employ electronic data processing techniques and/or a
matrix system to determine valuations. The procedures of the Service are
reviewed periodically by the officers of the Fund under the general
supervision and responsibility of the Board of Directors, which may replace
any such Service at any time if it determines it to be in the best interests
of the Fund to do so.
EXCHANGE PRIVILEGE
Except as noted below, shareholders of any Smith Barney Mutual Fund may
exchange all or part of their shares for shares of the same Class of other
Smith Barney Mutual Funds, to the extent such shares are offered for sale in
the shareholder's state of residence, on the basis of relative net asset value
per share at the time of exchange as follows:
A. Class A shares of any fund purchased with a sales charge may be
exchanged for Class A shares of any of the other funds and the sales charge
differential, if any, will be applied. Class A shares of any fund may be
exchanged without a sales charge for shares of the funds that are offered
without a sales charge. Class A shares of any fund purchased without a
sales charge may be exchanged for shares sold with a sales charge, and the
appropriate sales charge differential will be applied.
B. Class A shares of any fund acquired by a previous exchange of shares
purchased with a sales charge may be exchanged for Class A shares of any of
the other funds, and the sales charge differential, if any, will be
applied.
C. Class B shares of any fund may be exchanged without a sales charge.
Class B shares of the Fund exchanged for Class B shares of another fund
will be subject to the higher applicable CDSC of the two funds and, for
purposes of calculating CDSC rates and conversion periods, will be deemed
to have been held since the date the shares being exchanged were deemed to
be purchased.
Dealers other than Smith Barney must notify the Transfer Agent of the
investor's prior ownership of Class A shares of Smith Barney High Income Fund
and the account number in order to accomplish an exchange of shares of Smith
Barney High Income Fund under paragraph B above.
The exchange privilege enables shareholders to acquire shares of the same
Class in a fund with different investment objectives when they believe that a
shift between funds is an appropriate investment decision. This privilege is
available to shareholders residing in any state in which the Fund shares being
acquired may legally be sold. Prior to any exchange, the shareholder should
obtain and review a copy of the current prospectus of each fund into which an
exchange is being considered. Prospectuses may be obtained from a Smith Barney
Financial Consultant.
Upon receipt of proper instructions and all necessary supporting documents,
shares submitted for exchange are redeemed at the then-current net asset value
and, subject to any applicable CDSC, the proceeds are immediately invested, at
a price as described above, in shares of the fund being acquired. Smith Barney
reserves the right to reject any exchange request. The exchange privilege may
be modified or terminated at any time after written notice to shareholders.
PERFORMANCE DATA
From time to time, the Fund may quote yield or total return of a Class in
advertisements or in reports and other communications to shareholders. The
Fund may include comparative performance information in advertising or
marketing the Fund's shares. Such performance information may include data
from the following industry and financial publications: Barron's, Business
Week, CDA Investment Technologies, Inc., Changing Times, Forbes, Fortune,
Institutional Investor, Investors Daily, Money, Morningstar Mutual Fund
Values, The New York Times, USA Today and The Wall Street Journal. To the
extent any advertisement or sales literature of the Fund describes the
expenses or performance of any Class it will also disclose such information
for the other Classes.
Yield
The 30-day yield figure described below is calculated according to a formula
prescribed by the SEC. The formula can be expressed as follows:
YIELD =2 [ ( a-b +1)6 - 1]
cd
Where: a = Dividends and interest earned during the period.
b = Expenses accrued for the period (net of reimbursement).
c = The average daily number of shares outstanding during the
period that were entitled to receive dividends.
d = The maximum offering price per share on the last day of the
period.
For the purpose of determining the interest earned (variable "a" in the
formula) on debt obligations that were purchased by the Fund at a discount or
premium, the formula generally calls for amortization of the discount or
premium; the amortization schedule will be adjusted monthly to reflect changes
in the market values of the debt obligations.
The Fund's equivalent taxable 30-day yield for a Class is computed by
dividing that portion of the Class' 30-day yield which is tax-exempt by one
minus a stated income tax rate and adding the product to that portion, if any,
of the Class' yield that is not tax-exempt.
The yield on municipal securities is dependent upon a variety of factors,
including general economic and monetary conditions, conditions of the
municipal securities market, size of a particular offering, maturity of the
obligation offered and rating of the issue. Investors should recognize that,
in periods of declining interest rates, the Fund's yield for each Class of
shares will tend to be somewhat higher than prevailing market rates, and in
periods of rising interest rates the Fund's yield for each Class of shares
will tend to be somewhat lower. In addition, when interest rates are falling,
the inflow of net new money to the Fund from the continuous sale of its shares
will likely be invested in portfolio instruments producing lower yields than
the balance of the Fund's portfolio, thereby reducing the current yield of the
Fund. In periods of rising interest rates, the opposite can be expected to
occur.
The Fund's yield for Class A, Class B and Class C shares for the 30-day
period ended February 29, 1996 was 4.95%, 4.65% and 4.63%, respectively. The
equivalent taxable yield for the same period was 7.19%, 6.74% and 6.71%,
respectively, assuming the payment of Federal income taxes at a rate of 31%.
Average Annual Total Return
"Average annual total return" figures, as described below, are computed
according to a formula prescribed by the SEC. The formula can be expressed as
follows:
P (1+T)n = ERV
Where: P = A hypothetical initial payment of $1,000.
T = Average annual total return.
n = Number of years.
ERV = Ending Redeemable Value of a hypothetical $1,000 investment
made at the beginning of a 1-, 5-, or 10-year period at the
end of the 1-, 5-, or 10-year period (or fractional portion
thereof), assuming reinvestment of all dividends and
distributions.
The following average annual total return figures for Class A assume that
the maximum 4.00% sales charge has been deducted from the investment at the
time of purchase and have been restated to show the change in the maximum
sales charge. The Fund's average annual total return for Class A shares were
as follows for the periods indicated:
6.92% for the one-year period beginning March 1, 1995 through February 29,
1996;
9.52% per annum during the five-year period beginning on March 1, 1991 through
February 29, 1996; and
8.57% per annum during the ten-year period beginning on March 1, 1986 through
February 29, 1996.
If the maximum 4.00% sales charge had not been deducted at the time of
purchase, the Class A average annual total return for the same periods would
have been 11.34%, 10.41% and 9.02%, respectively.
The Fund's average annual total return for Class B shares assuming deduction
of the maximum applicable CDSC was as follows for the periods indicated:
6.28% for the one year period beginning March 1, 1995 through February 29,
1996;
9.32% per annum during the period from inception (November 6, 1992) through
February 29, 1996.
The Fund's average annual total return for Class B shares without the CDSC was
as follows for the periods indicated:
10.78% for the one year period beginning March 1, 1995 through February 29,
1996; and
9.80% per annum during the period from inception (November 6, 1992) through
February 29, 1996.
The Fund's average annual total return for Class C shares assuming deduction
of the maximum applicable CDSC was as follows for the periods indicated:
9.76% for the one year period beginning March 1, 1995 through February 29,
1996; and
18.22% per annum during the period from inception (November 9, 1994) through
February 29, 1996.
The Fund's average annual total return for Class C shares without the CDSC was
as follows for the periods indicated:
10.76% for the one year period beginning March 1, 1995 through February 29,
1996; and
18.22% per annum during the period from inception (November 9, 1994) through
February 29, 1996.
The Fund's average annual total return for Class Y shares was 9.84% during the
period from April 4, 1995 (inception) through February 29, 1996.
Aggregate Total Return
Aggregate total return figures, as described below, represent the cumulative
change in the value of an investment in the Class for the specified period and
are computed by the following formula:
ERV - P
P
Where: P = A hypothetical initial payment of $10,000.
ERV = Ending Redeemable Value of a hypothetical $10,000 investment
made at the beginning of a 1-, 5-, or 10-year
period at the end of the 1-, 5-, or 10-year period
(or fractional portion thereof), assuming reinvestment of all
dividends and distributions.
The Fund's aggregate total returns for Class A shares were as follows for the
periods indicated:
11.34% for the one-year period beginning March 1, 1995 through February 29,
1996;
64.08% for the five-year period beginning March 1, 1991 through February 29,
1996; and
137.04% for the ten-year period beginning March 1, 1986 through February 29,
1996.
These aggregate total return figures do not assume that the maximum 4.00%
sales charge has been deducted from the investment at the time of purchase. If
the sales charge had been deducted at the time of purchase, the aggregate
total return for Class A shares for those same periods would have been 6.92%,
57.56%, and 127.60%, respectively. The aggregate total return figures have
been restated to show the change in the maximum sales charge.
The Fund's aggregate total return for Class B shares was as follows for the
periods indicated:
10.78% for the one year period beginning March 1, 1995 through February 29,
1996; and
36.37% for the period from November 6, 1992 (inception) through February 29,
1996.
These figures do not assume that the maximum 4.50% CDSC assessed by the
Fund has been deducted from the investment at the time of purchase. If the
maximum CDSC had been deducted at the time of purchase, the Fund's aggregate
total return for Class B shares for the same periods would have been 6.28% and
34.37%, respectively.
The Fund's aggregate total return for Class C shares was as follows for the
periods indicated:
10.76% for the one year period beginning March 1, 1995 through February 29,
1996.
24.45% for the period beginning November 9, 1994 (inception) through February
29, 1996.
These figure do not assume that the maximum 1% CDSC assessed by the Fund
has been deducted from the investment at the time of purchase. If the maximum
CDSC had been deducted at the time of purchase, the Fund's aggregate total
return for the same periods would have been 9.76% and 24.45%.
The Fund's aggregate total return for Class Y shares was 9.84% during the
period from April 4, 1995 (inception) through February 29, 1996.
It is important to note that the total return figures set forth above are
based on historical earnings and are not intended to indicate future
performance. Each Class' net investment income changes in response to
fluctuation in interest rates and the expenses of the Fund. Performance will
vary from time to time depending upon market conditions, the composition of
the Fund's portfolio and operating expenses and the expenses exclusively
attributable to the Class. Consequently, any given performance quotation
should not be considered representative of the Class' performance for any
specified period in the future. Because performance will vary, it may not
provide a basis for comparing an investment in the Class with certain bank
deposits or other investments that pay a fixed yield for a stated period of
time. Investors comparing a Class' performance with that of other mutual funds
should give consideration to the quality and maturity of the respective
investment companies' portfolio securities.
TAXES
The following is a summary of selected Federal income tax considerations that
may affect the Fund and its shareholders. The summary is not intended as a
substitute for individual tax advice and investors are urged to consult their
own tax advisors as to the tax consequences of an investment in the Fund.
As described above and in the Prospectus, the Fund is designed to provide
shareholders with current income which is excluded from gross income for
regular Federal income tax purposes. The Fund is not intended to constitute a
balanced investment program and is not designed for investors seeking capital
gains or maximum tax-exempt income irrespective of fluctuations in principal.
Investment in the Fund would not be suitable for tax-exempt institutions,
qualified retirement plans, H.R. 10 plans and individual retirement accounts
because such investors would not gain any additional tax benefit from the
receipt of tax-exempt income.
The Fund has qualified and intends to continue to qualify each year as a
regulated investment company under the Code. Provided that the Fund (a) is a
regulated investment company and (b) distributes at least 90% of its taxable
net investment income (including, for this purpose, its net realized short-
term capital gains) and 90% of its tax-exempt interest income (reduced by
certain expenses), the Fund will not be liable for Federal income taxes to the
extent its taxable net investment income and its net realized long-term and
short-term capital gains, if any, are distributed to its shareholders. Any
such taxes paid by the Fund would reduce the amount of income and gains
available for distribution to shareholders.
Because the Fund will distribute exempt-interest dividends, interest on
indebtedness incurred by a shareholder to purchase or carry Fund shares is not
deductible for Federal income tax purposes. If a shareholder receives exempt-
interest dividends with respect to any share and if such share is held by the
shareholder for six months or less, then any loss on the sale or exchange of
such share may, to the extent of such exempt-interest dividends, be
disallowed. In addition, the Code may require a shareholder, if he or she
receives exempt-interest dividends, to treat as Federal taxable income a
portion of certain otherwise non-taxable social security and railroad
retirement benefit payments. Furthermore, that portion of any exempt-interest
dividend paid by the Fund which represents income derived from private
activity bonds held by the Fund may not retain its tax-exempt status in the
hands of a shareholder who is a "substantial user" of a facility financed by
such bonds, or a "related person" thereof. Moreover, as noted in the Fund's
Prospectus, (a) some or all of the Fund's dividends may be a specific
preference item, or a component of an adjustment item, for purposes of the
Federal individual and corporate alternative minimum taxes and (b) the receipt
of Fund dividends and distributions may affect a corporate shareholder's
Federal "environmental" tax liability. In addition, the receipt of Fund
dividends and distributions may affect a foreign corporate shareholder's
Federal "branch profits" tax liability and the Federal "excess net passive
income" tax liability of a shareholder of a Subchapter S corporation.
Shareholders should consult their own tax advisors as to whether they are (a)
substantial users with respect to a facility or related to such users within
the meaning of the Code or (b) subject to a Federal alternative minimum tax,
the Federal environmental tax, the Federal branch profits tax, or the Federal
"excess net passive income" tax.
As described above and in the Fund's Prospectus, the Fund may invest in
municipal bond index futures and financial futures contracts and options on
interest rate futures and financial futures contracts. The Fund anticipates
that these investment activities will not prevent the Fund from qualifying as
a regulated investment company; however, in order to continue to qualify as a
regulated investment company, the Fund might have to limit its investments in
futures contracts and options on futures contracts. As a general rule, these
investment activities will increase or decrease the amount of long- and short-
term capital gains or losses realized by the Fund and, accordingly, will
affect the amount of capital gains distributed to the Fund's shareholders.
For Federal income tax purposes, gain or loss on the futures contracts and
options described above (collectively referred to as "section 1256 contracts")
is taxed pursuant to a special "mark-to-market system." Under the mark-to-
market system, these instruments are treated as if sold at the Fund's fiscal
year end for their fair market value. As a result, the Fund will be
recognizing gains or losses before they are actually realized. As a general
rule, gain or loss on section 1256 contracts is treated as 60% long-term
capital gain or loss and 40% short-term capital gain or loss and, accordingly,
the mark-to-market system generally will affect the amount of net capital
gains or losses recognized by the Fund and the amount of distributions taxable
to a shareholder. Moreover, if the Fund invests in both section 1256 contracts
and offsetting positions in such contracts, which together constitute a
straddle, then the Fund may be required to defer certain realized losses. The
Fund expects that its activities with respect to section 1256 contracts and
offsetting positions in those contracts will not cause it to be treated as
recognizing a materially greater amount of capital gains than actually
realized and will permit it to use substantially all of its losses in those
fiscal years in which such losses actually occur.
While the Fund does not expect to realize a significant amount of net long-
term capital gains, any such gains realized will be distributed as described
in the Fund's Prospectus. Such distributions ("capital gain dividends"), if
any, will be taxable to shareholders as long-term capital gains, regardless of
how long they have held Fund shares, and will be designated as capital gain
dividends in a written notice mailed by the Fund to the shareholders within 60
days after the close of the taxable year. If a shareholder receives a capital
gain dividend with respect to any share and if the share has been held by the
shareholder for six months or less, then any loss (to the extent not
disallowed pursuant to the six-month rule described above relating to exempt-
interest dividends) on the sale or exchange of such share, to the extent of
the capital gain dividend, shall be treated as a long-term capital loss.
If a shareholder incurs a sales charge when acquiring shares of the Fund,
disposes of those shares within 90 days and then acquires shares in a mutual
fund for which the otherwise applicable sales charge is reduced by reason of a
reinvestment right (that is, exchange privilege), the original sales charge
will not be taken into account in computing gain or loss on the original
shares to the extent the subsequent sales charge is reduced. Instead, it will
be added to the tax basis in the newly acquired shares. Furthermore, the same
rule also applies to a disposition of the newly acquired shares made within 90
days of the second acquisition. This provision prevents a shareholder from
immediately deducting the sales charge by shifting his or her investment
within a family of mutual funds.
Each shareholder will receive after the close of the calendar year an
annual statement as to the Federal income tax status of his or her dividends
and distributions from the Fund for the prior calendar year. These statements
also will designate the amount of exempt-interest dividends that is a specific
preference item for purposes of the Federal individual and corporate
alternative minimum taxes. Each shareholder also will receive, if appropriate,
various written notices after the close of the Fund's prior taxable year as to
the Federal income tax status of his or her dividends and distributions which
were received from the Fund during the Fund's prior taxable year. Shareholders
should consult their tax advisors as to any state and local taxes that may
apply to these dividends and distributions. The dollar amount of dividends
excluded from regular Federal income taxation and the dollar amount subject to
regular Federal income taxation, if any, will vary for each shareholder
depending upon the size and duration of each shareholder's investment in the
Fund.
Investors considering buying shares of the Fund just prior to a record date
for a capital gain distribution should be aware that, regardless of whether
the price of the Fund shares to be purchased reflects the amount of the
forthcoming distribution payment, any such payment will be a distribution
payment.
If a shareholder fails to furnish a correct taxpayer identification number,
fails to fully report dividend and interest income, or fails to certify that
he or she has provided a correct taxpayer identification number and that he or
she is not subject to such withholding, the shareholder may be subject to a
31% "backup withholding" tax with respect to (a) taxable dividends and
distributions and (b) any proceeds of any redemptions of Fund shares. An
individual's taxpayer identification number is his or her social security
number. The backup withholding tax is not an additional tax and may be
credited against a shareholder's regular Federal income tax liability.
The foregoing is only a summary of certain tax considerations generally
affecting the Fund and its shareholders, and is not intended as a substitute
for careful tax planning. Individuals are often exempt from state and local
personal income taxes on distributions of tax-exempt interest income derived
from obligations of issuers located in the state in which they reside when
these distributions are received directly from these issuers, but are usually
subject to such taxes on income derived from obligations of issuers located in
other jurisdictions. Shareholders are urged to consult their tax advisors with
specific reference to their own tax situations.

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The Fund's Annual Report for the fiscal year ended February 29, 1996
accompanies this Statement of Additional Information and is incorporated
herein by reference in its entirety.
APPENDIX A
Description of S&P and Moody's ratings:
S&P Ratings for Municipal Bonds
S&P's Municipal Bond ratings cover obligations of states and political
subdivisions. Ratings are assigned to general obligation and revenue bonds.
General obligation bonds are usually secured by all resources available to the
municipality and the factors outlined in the rating definitions below are
weighed in determining the rating. Because revenue bonds in general are
payable from specifically pledged revenues, the essential element in the
security for a revenue bond is the quantity and quality of the pledged
revenues available to pay debt service.
Although an appraisal of most of the same factors that bear on the quality of
general obligation bond credit is usually appropriate in the rating analysis
of a revenue bond, other factors are important, including particularly the
competitive position of the municipal enterprise under review and the basic
security covenants. Although a rating reflects S&P's judgment as to the
issuer's capacity for the timely payment of debt service, in certain instances
it may also reflect a mechanism or procedure for an assured and prompt cure of
a default, should one occur, i.e., an insurance program, Federal or state
guarantee or the automatic withholding and use of state aid to pay the
defaulted debt service.
AAA
Prime -- These are obligations of the highest quality. They have the
strongest capacity for timely payment of debt service.
General Obligation Bonds -- In a period of economic stress, the issuers
will suffer the smallest declines in income and will be least susceptible to
autonomous decline. Debt burden is moderate. A strong revenue structure
appears more than adequate to meet future expenditure requirements. Quality of
management appears superior.
Revenue Bonds -- Debt service coverage has been, and is expected to remain,
substantial. Stability of the pledged revenues is also exceptionally strong,
due to the competitive position of the municipal enterprise or to the nature
of the revenues. Basic security provisions (including rate covenant, earnings
test for issuance of additional bonds, and debt service reserve requirements)
are rigorous. There is evidence of superior management.
AA
High Grade -- The investment characteristics of general obligation and
revenue bonds in this group are only slightly less marked than those of the
prime quality issues. Bonds rated "AA'' have the second strongest capacity for
payment of debt service.
A
Good Grade -- Principal and interest payments on bonds in this category are
regarded as safe. This rating describes the third strongest capacity for
payment of debt service. It differs from the two higher ratings because:
General Obligation Bonds -- There is some weakness, either in the local
economic base, in debt burden, in the balance between revenues and
expenditures, or in quality of management. Under certain adverse
circumstances, any one such weakness might impair the ability of the issuer to
meet debt obligations at some future date.
Revenue Bonds -- Debt service coverage is good, but not exceptional.
Stability of the pledged revenues could show some variations because of
increased competition or economic influences on revenues. Basic security
provisions, while satisfactory, are less stringent. Management performance
appears adequate.
BBB
Medium Grade -- Of the investment grade ratings, this is the lowest.
General Obligation Bonds -- Under certain adverse conditions, several of
the above factors could contribute to a lesser capacity for payment of debt
service. The difference between "A'' and "BBB'' ratings is that the latter
shows more than one fundamental weakness, or one very substantial fundamental
weakness, whereas the former shows only one deficiency among the factors
considered.
Revenue Bonds -- Debt coverage is only fair. Stability of the pledged revenues
could show substantial variations, with the revenue flow possibly being
subject to erosion over time. Basic security provisions are no more than
adequate. Management performance could be stronger.
BB, B, CCC and CC
Bonds rated BB, B, CCC and CC are regarded, on balance, as predominately
speculative with respect to capacity to pay interest and repay principal in
accordance with the terms of the obligation. BB indicates the lowest degree of
speculation and CC the highest degree of speculation. While such bonds will
likely have some quality and protective characteristics, these are outweighed
by large uncertainties or major risk exposures to adverse conditions.
C
The rating C is reserved for income bonds on which no interest is being
paid.
D
Bonds rated D are in default, and payment of interest and/or repayment of
principal is in arrears.
S&P's letter ratings may be modified by the addition of a plus or a minus
sign, which is used to show relative standing within the major rating
categories, except in the AAA-Prime Grade category.
S&P Ratings for Municipal Notes
Municipal notes with maturities of three years or less are usually given note
ratings (designated SP-1, -2 or -3) by S&P to distinguish more clearly the
credit quality of notes as compared to bonds. Notes rated SP-1 have a very
strong or strong capacity to pay principal and interest. Those issues
determined to possess overwhelming safety characteristics are given the
designation of SP-1+. Notes rated SP-2 have a satisfactory capacity to pay
principal and interest.
Moody's Ratings for Municipal Bonds
Aaa
Bonds which are Aaa are judged to be of the best quality. They carry the
smallest degree of investment risk and are generally referred to as "gilt
edge.'' Interest payments are protected by a large or by an exceptionally
stable margin and principal is secure. While the various protective elements
are likely to change, such changes as can be visualized are most unlikely to
impair the fundamentally strong position of such issues.
Aa
Bonds which are rated Aa are judged to be of high quality by all standards.
Together with the Aaa group they comprise what are generally known as high-
grade bonds. They are rated lower than the best bonds because margins of
protection may not be as large as in Aaa securities or fluctuation of
protective elements may be of greater amplitude or there may be other elements
present which make the long-term risks appear somewhat larger than in Aaa
securities.
A
Bonds which are rated A possess many favorable investment attributes and
are to be considered as upper medium-grade obligations. Factors giving
security to principal and interest are considered adequate, but elements may
be present which suggest a susceptibility to impairment sometime in the
future.
Baa
Bonds which are rated Baa are considered as medium-grade obligations, i.e.,
they are neither highly protected nor poorly secured. Interest payments and
principal security appear adequate for the present but certain protective
elements may be lacking or may be characteristically unreliable over any great
length of time. Such bonds lack outstanding investment characteristics and in
fact have speculative characteristics as well.
Ba
Bonds which are rated Ba are judged to have speculative elements; their
future cannot be considered as well assured. Often the protection of interest
and principal payments may be very moderate and thereby not well safeguarded
during both good and bad times over the future. Uncertainty of position
characterizes bonds in this class.
B
Bonds which are rated B generally lack characteristics of the desirable
investment. Assurance of interest and principal payments or of maintenance of
other terms of the contract over any long period of time may be small.
Caa
Bonds that are rated Caa are of poor standing. These issues may be in
default or present elements of danger may exist with respect to principal or
interest.
Ca
Bonds that are rated Ca represent obligations that are speculative in a
high degree. These issues are often in default or have other marked short-
comings.
C
Bonds that are rated C are the lowest rated class of bonds, and issues so
rated can be regarded as having extremely poor prospects of ever attaining any
real investment standing.
Moody's applies the numerical modifiers 1, 2 and 3 in each generic rating
classification from Aa through Baa. The modifier 1 indicates that the security
ranks in the higher end of its generic rating category; the modifier 2
indicates a mid-range ranking; and the modifier 3 indicates that the issue
ranks in the lower end of its generic rating category.
Moody's Ratings for Municipal Notes
Moody's ratings for state and municipal notes and other short-term loans are
designated Moody's Investment Grade ("MIG") and for variable rate demand
obligations are designated Variable Moody's Investment Grade ("VMIG"). This
distinction is in recognition of the differences between short-term credit
risk and long-term risk. Loans bearing the designation MIG 1 or VMIG 1 are of
the best quality, enjoying strong protection by established cash flows of
funds for their servicing, superior liquidity support or from established and
broad-based access to the market for refinancing or both. Loans bearing the
designation MIG 2 or VMIG 2 are of high quality, with ample margins of
protection although not as large as the preceding group. Loans bearing the
designation MIG 3 or VMIG 3 are of favorable quality, with all security
elements accounted for, but lacking the undeniable strength of the preceding
grades. Liquidity and cash flow may be narrow and market access for
refinancing is likely to be less well established.
Description of S&P A-1+ and A-1 Commercial Paper Rating
The rating A-1+ is the highest, and A-1 the second highest, commercial paper
rating assigned by S&P. Paper rated A-1+ must have either the direct credit
support of an issuer or guarantor that possesses excellent long-term operating
and financial strengths combined with strong liquidity characteristics
(typically, such issuers or guarantors would display credit quality
characteristics which would warrant a senior bond rating of "AA\-" or higher),
or the direct credit support of an issuer or guarantor that possesses above
average long-term fundamental operating and financing capabilities combined
with ongoing excellent liquidity characteristics. Paper rated A-1 by S&P has
the following characteristics: liquidity ratios are adequate to meet cash
requirements; long-term senior debt is rated "A'' or better; the issuer has
access to at least two additional channels of borrowing; basic earnings and
cash flow have an upward trend with allowance made for unusual circumstances;
typically, the issuer's industry is well established and the issuer has a
strong position within the industry; and the reliability and quality of
management are unquestioned.
Description of Moody's Prime-1 Commercial Paper Rating
The rating Prime-1 is the highest commercial paper rating assigned by Moody's.
Among the factors considered by Moody's in assigning ratings are the
following: (a) evaluation of the management of the issuer; (b) economic
evaluation of the issuer's industry or industries and an appraisal of
speculative-type risks which may be inherent in certain areas; (c) evaluation
of the issuer's products in relation to competition and customer acceptance;
(d) liquidity; (e) amount and quality of long-term debt; (f) trend of earnings
over a period of ten years; (g) financial strength of a parent company and the
relationships which exist with the issuer; and (h) recognition by the
management of obligations which may be present or may arise as a result of
public interest questions and preparations to meet such obligations.
