Dear Fellow Shareholder:

We are asking for your vote on important matters affecting your investment in one or more of the Putnam closed-end funds.

Of course, you are also welcome to attend the annual shareholder meeting on April 17, 2026, and vote your shares during the meeting with respect to the following matters:

1. Fixing the number of Trustees at 8 and electing Trustees.

Shareholders of each fund are being asked to fix the number of Trustees at 8 and to elect Trustees at the upcoming annual meeting. Although Trustees do not manage fund portfolios, they play an important role in protecting shareholders. Trustees are responsible for approving the fees paid to your fund's investment adviser and its affiliates, reviewing overall fund expenses, selecting the fund's auditors, monitoring conflicts of interest, overseeing the fund's compliance with federal securities laws, and overseeing the voting of proxies for the fund's portfolio securities. All but one of your fund's Trustees currently are independent of the fund and Franklin Advisers, Inc., your fund's investment adviser ("Franklin Advisers").

Detailed information regarding this proposal may be found in the enclosed proxy statement.

Please vote today.

We encourage you to sign and return your proxy card today or, alternatively, to vote online or by telephone using the voting control number that appears on your proxy card. Delaying your vote will increase fund expenses if further mailings are required. Your shares will be voted on your behalf exactly as you have instructed. If you sign the proxy card without specifying your vote, your shares will be voted in accordance with the Trustees' recommendations.

Your vote is extremely important. If you have questions, please call toll-free 1-866-765-9033 or contact your financial advisor.

We appreciate your participation and prompt response, and thank you for investing in the funds.

This document gives you the information you need to vote on the proposals. Much of the information is required under rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"); some of it is technical. If there is anything you don't understand, please call toll-free 1-866-765-9033 or call your financial advisor.

Who is asking for your vote?

The enclosed proxy is solicited by the Board of Trustees of Putnam Managed Municipal Income Trust, Putnam Master Intermediate Income Trust, Putnam Municipal Opportunities Trust, and Putnam Premier Income Trust (each, a "Board" and collectively, the "Board") for use at each fund's annual meeting of shareholders to be held on April 17, 2026 and, if your fund's meeting is adjourned, or postponed, at any later sessions, for the purposes stated in the Notice of Annual Meeting of Shareholders (see previous page). The Notice of Annual Meeting of Shareholders, the proxy card, and this proxy statement are being mailed beginning on or about March 10, 2026.

How do your fund's Trustees recommend that shareholders vote on these proposals?

The Trustees recommend that you vote

1a. FOR fixing the number of Trustees at 8;

1b. FOR electing your fund's nominees for Trustees.

Who is eligible to vote?

Shareholders of record of each fund at the close of business on February 6, 2026 (the "Record Date") are entitled to be present and to vote at the annual meeting or, if it is adjourned, at any later sessions. Shareholders of each fund vote separately with respect to each proposal.

Each common shareholder and each preferred shareholder (if applicable) will be entitled to one vote for each share held, with fractional shares voting proportionately. For Putnam Managed Municipal Income Trust and Putnam Municipal Opportunities Trust, the only funds with outstanding preferred shares, the holders of preferred shares and holders of common shares for each fund will vote together as a single class, unless otherwise noted. Shares represented by your duly executed proxy card will be voted in accordance with your instructions. If you sign and return the proxy card but don't fill in a vote, your shares will be voted in accordance with the Trustees' recommendations. If any other business properly comes before your fund's annual meeting, your shares will be voted at the discretion of the persons designated on the proxy card.

The Proposals

1a. FIXING THE NUMBER OF TRUSTEES AT 8

Each fund's Amended and Restated Agreement and Declaration of Trust (the "Declaration of Trust") states that shareholders shall fix the number of Trustees on the Board at each annual meeting. Each fund currently has

1

8 Trustees on its Board. The Board, based on the recommendation of its Nominating Committee, recommends that shareholders fix the number of Trustees on your fund's Board at 8.

For each fund, if a quorum is present at the annual meeting, a plurality vote, meaning the greatest number of affirmative votes cast by shareholders, will fix the number of Trustees. In the case of Putnam Managed Municipal Income Trust and Putnam Municipal Opportunities Trust, the holders of common and preferred shares vote together as a single class for Proposal 1a.

The Trustees of your fund unanimously recommend that shareholders vote "FOR" fixing the number of Trustees at 8.

1b. ELECTION OF TRUSTEES

Who are the nominees for Trustees?

The Nominating Committee of the Board is responsible for recommending nominees for Trustees of your fund. The Nominating Committee consists solely of Trustees who are not "interested persons" (as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act")) of your fund or of Franklin Advisers. Those Trustees who are not "interested persons" of your fund or of Franklin Advisers are referred to as "Independent Trustees" throughout this proxy statement.

Each fund's Declaration of Trust requires that shareholders elect the fund's Trustees by a plurality vote at the fund's annual meeting. The Board, based on the recommendation of the Nominating Committee, recommends that you vote for the election of the nominees described in the following pages. All the nominees are currently Trustees of your fund and certain other funds in the Franklin Templeton fund complex.

For Putnam Managed Municipal Income Trust and Putnam Municipal Opportunities Trust only.

Pursuant to the Amended and Restated Bylaws of each fund and provisions of the 1940 Act governing the issuance of preferred shares, holders of the preferred shares of your fund, voting as a separate class, are at all times entitled to elect two nominees for Trustees. Robert D. Agdern and Peter Mason have been nominated for election as Trustees by the holders of the preferred shares, voting as a separate class, while the other nominees have been nominated for election by the holders of the preferred shares and common shares voting together as a single class.

Biographical Information For The Funds' Nominees.

The nominees for Trustees and their backgrounds are shown in the following pages. This information includes each nominee's name, year of birth, principal occupation(s) during the past five years, and other information about the nominee's professional background, including other directorships the nominee holds. Each of the nominees currently serves as a Trustee overseeing 22 closed-end funds advised by Franklin Advisers or its affiliates and, upon election, is proposed to serve until the election and qualification of his or her

2

successor, or until he or she sooner dies, resigns, retires, or is removed. Ms. Trust also serves as Trustee of 118 other funds that are advised by one or more affiliates of Franklin Advisers.

Interested Trustees

The Nominating Committee of the Board is responsible for recommending nominees for election to the Board for its approval. The Nominating Committee considers the skills and characteristics that it determines would most benefit the funds, and considers diversity of background, experience, and views. In recommending the election of the nominees as Trustees, the Nominating Committee generally considered these matters and the educational, business, and professional experience of each nominee in determining his or her qualifications to serve as a Trustee of the fund, including the nominee's record of service as a director or trustee of public and private organizations. This included each nominee's previous service as a member of the Board and service as a member of the boards of other closed-end funds managed by Franklin Advisers or its affiliates. The Nominating Committee also considered, among other factors, the particular attributes described below with respect to each individual nominee for Trustee: Mr. Agdern, experience in business and as a legal professional; Ms. Colman, experience as a consultant and investment professional; Mr. Grillo, experience as a managing director of a private equity and credit firm and experience in investment banking; Ms. Kamerick, experience in business and finance, including financial reporting, and experience as a board member of a highly regulated financial services company; Ms. Kumar, financial and accounting experience as the chief financial officer of other companies and experience as a board member of private equity funds; Mr. Mason, legal and managerial experience; Ms. Sale, experience as a college professor and experience as a board member for financial and corporate institutions; and Ms. Trust, investment management and risk oversight experience as an executive and portfolio manager and leadership roles within Franklin Templeton and affiliated entities. References to the qualifications, attributes and skills of the nominees for Trustees are pursuant to requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission, do not constitute holding out of the Board or any nominee from Trustee as having any special expertise or experience, and do not impose any greater responsibility or liability on any person or on the Board by reason thereof.

Each of the nominees has agreed to serve as a Trustee, if elected. If any nominee is unavailable for election at the time of the annual meeting, which is not anticipated, the persons designated on the proxy card may vote for other nominees at their discretion or may fix the number of Trustees at fewer than 8 for your fund.

What are the Trustees' responsibilities?

Responsibilities of the Board¹

Your fund's Board is responsible under applicable state law for overseeing generally the management and operations of the fund. The Board oversees your fund's operations by, among other things, meeting at its regularly scheduled meetings and as otherwise needed with the fund's management and evaluating the performance of the fund's service providers. As part of this process, the Trustees consult with your fund's independent auditors and with their own separate independent counsel.

The Trustees review your fund's financial statements, performance, net asset value and market price and the relationship between them, as well as the quality of the services being provided to the fund. As part of this process, the Trustees review your fund's fees and expenses in light of the nature, quality and scope of the

5

services being received while also seeking to ensure that the fund continues to have access to high quality services in the future.

During the calendar year ended 2025, the Board held six regular meetings and three special meetings. Each Trustee attended at least 75% of the aggregate number of meetings of the Board.

The funds do not have a formal policy with respect to Trustee attendance at shareholder meetings. While various Trustees may attend shareholder meetings from time to time, your fund's Trustees did not attend the last annual meeting of your fund. The Trustees are generally represented at shareholder meetings by their independent staff and independent counsel.

The Board has a standing Audit Committee, Nominating Committee, Compensation Committee and Pricing and Valuation Committee that meet periodically and whose responsibilities are described below. Each of the Audit Committee, Nominating Committee, Compensation Committee and Pricing and Valuation Committee of the Board are composed of all Trustees who have been determined not to be "interested persons" of the fund, Franklin Advisers or their affiliates within the meaning of the 1940 Act, and who are "independent" as defined in the New York Stock Exchange listing standards ("Independent Trustees"), and chaired by an Independent Trustees. The Board in its discretion from time to time may establish ad hoc committees.

Audit Committee. The fund's Audit Committee is composed entirely of all of the Independent Trustees. The principal functions of the Audit Committee are to: (a) assist Board oversight of (i) the integrity of the fund's financial reporting, (ii) the fund's compliance with legal and regulatory requirements, (iii) the qualifications and independence of the fund's independent registered public accountants and (iv) the performance of the fund's internal audit function and independent registered public accountants; (b) approve, and recommend to the Independent Board Members (as such term is defined in the Audit Committee Charter) for their ratification, the selection, appointment, retention or termination of the fund's independent registered public accounting firm, as well as approving the compensation thereof; (c) approve all audit and permissible non-audit services provided to the fund and certain other persons by the fund's independent registered public accounting firm; and (d) prepare the report required to be prepared by the Audit Committee pursuant to the rules of the SEC for inclusion in the fund's annual Proxy Statement. The Audit Committee for Putnam Master Intermediate Income Trust held three meetings during the calendar year ended December 31, 2025. The Audit Committee for Putnam Managed Municipal Income Trust, Putnam Municipal Opportunities Trust and Putnam Premier Income Trust held four meetings during the calendar year ended December 31, 2025. The Audit Committee operates under a written charter adopted and approved by the Board, a copy of which will be available on the fund's website at www.franklintempleton.com/investments/options/closed-end-funds and click on the name of the fund.

Nominating Committee. The fund's Nominating Committee, the principal function of which is to select and nominate candidates for election as Trustees of the fund, is composed of all of the Independent Trustees. The Nominating Committee may consider nominees recommended by the stockholder as it deems appropriate. Stockholders who wish to recommend a nominee should send recommendations to the fund's Secretary that include all information relating to such person that is required to be disclosed in solicitations of proxies for the election of Trustees. A recommendation must be accompanied by a written consent of the individual to stand for election if nominated by the Board and to serve if elected by the shareholders. The Nominating Committee met five times during the calendar year ended December 31, 2025. The Nominating Committee operates under a written charter adopted and approved by the Board, a copy of which is available on the fund's website at www.franklintempleton.com/investments/options/closed-end-funds and click on the name of the fund.

6

The Nominating Committee identifies potential nominees through its network of contacts, and in its discretion may also engage a professional search firm. The Nominating Committee meets to discuss and consider such candidates' qualifications and then chooses a candidate by majority vote. The Nominating Committee does not have specific, minimum qualifications for nominees, and will not establish specific qualities or skills that it regards as necessary for one or more of the fund's Trustees to possess (other than any qualities or skills that may be required by applicable law, regulation or listing standard). However, as set forth in the Nominating Committee Charter, in evaluating a person as a potential nominee to serve as a Trustee of the fund, the Nominee Committee may consider the following factors, among any others it may deem relevant:

Pricing and Valuation Committee. The fund's Pricing and Valuation Committee is composed of all of the Independent Trustees. The principal function of the Pricing and Valuation Committee is to assist the Board with its oversight of the process for valuing portfolio securities in light of applicable law, regulatory guidance and applicable policies and procedures adopted by the fund. The Pricing and Valuation Committee met five times during the calendar year ended December 31, 2025.

Compensation Committee. The fund's Compensation Committee is composed entirely of all of the Independent Trustees. The principal function of the Compensation Committee is to recommend the appropriate compensation of the Independent Trustees for their service on the Board and the committees of the Board. The Compensation Committee met once during the calendar year ended December 31, 2025. The Compensation Committee operates under a written charter adopted and approved by the Board, a copy of which is available on the fund's website at www.franklintempleton.com/investments/options/closed-end-funds and click on the name of the fund.

Risk Oversight. The Board's role in risk oversight of the fund reflects its responsibility under applicable state law to oversee generally, rather than to manage, the operations of the fund. In line with this oversight responsibility, the Board receives reports and make inquiries at its regular meetings and as needed regarding

7

the nature and extent of significant fund risks (including investment, compliance and valuation risks) that potentially could have a materially adverse impact on the business operations, investment performance or reputation of the fund, but will rely upon the fund's management (including the fund's portfolio managers) and Chief Compliance Officer, who reports directly to the Board, and Franklin Advisers to assist it in identifying and understanding the nature and extent of such risks and determining whether, and to what extent, such risks may be eliminated or mitigated. In addition to reports and other information received from fund management and Franklin Advisers regarding the fund's investment program and activities, the Board as part of its risk oversight efforts meets at its regular meetings and as needed with the fund's Chief Compliance Officer to discuss, among other things, risk issues and issues regarding the policies, procedures and controls of the fund. The Board may be assisted in performing aspects of its role in risk oversight by the Audit Committee and such other standing or special committees as may be established from time to time by the Board. For example, the Audit Committee of the Board will regularly meet with the fund's independent public accounting firm to review, among other things, reports on the fund's internal controls for financial reporting.

The Board believes that not all risks that may affect the fund can be identified, that it may not be practical or cost-effective to eliminate or mitigate certain risks, that it may be necessary to bear certain risks (such as investment-related risks) to achieve the fund's goals, and that the processes, procedures and controls employed to address certain risks may be limited in their effectiveness. Moreover, reports received by the Trustees as to risk management matters are typically summaries of relevant information and may be inaccurate or incomplete. As a result of the foregoing and other factors, the Board's risk management oversight is subject to substantial limitations.

How large of a stake do the Trustees have in the funds and the related family of investment companies?

The Trustees allocate their investments among the funds based on their own investment needs. The table below shows the number of shares of each fund beneficially owned by each nominee for Trustee, as well as the value of each nominee's holdings in each fund and in all of the funds in the family of investment companies overseen by the Trustees as of December 31, 2025. As a group, the Trustees owned shares of the funds valued under $100,000 as of December 31, 2025.

8

As of March 1, 2026, none of the Trustees owned any preferred shares of Putnam Managed Municipal Income Trust or Putnam Municipal Opportunities Trust. As of March 1, 2026, each Trustee, and the officers and Trustees of the fund as a group, owned less than 1% of each fund's outstanding common shares.

How can shareholders communicate with the Trustees?

The Board provides a process for shareholders to send communications to the Trustees. Shareholders may direct communications to the Board as a whole or to specified individual Trustees by submitting them in writing to the following address:

Written communications must include the shareholder's name, be signed by the shareholder, refer to the fund(s) in which the shareholder holds shares, and include the class and number of shares held by the shareholder as of a recent date.

Representatives of the funds' transfer agent will review all communications sent to Trustees and, as deemed appropriate, will provide copies and/or summaries of communications to the Trustees.

What are some of the ways in which the Trustees represent shareholder interests?

Among other ways, the Trustees seek to represent shareholder interests:

9

What are the Trustees paid for their services?

Each Independent Trustee of the funds receives an annual retainer fee and additional fees for each Trustee meeting attended and for certain related services. Independent Trustees also are reimbursed for expenses they incur relating to their service as Trustees.

The Trustees periodically review their fees to ensure that the fees continue to be appropriate in light of their responsibilities as well as in relation to fees paid to trustees of other mutual fund complexes.

10

The following tables include the fees paid to each of the Trustees by each fund included in this proxy statement for its most recent fiscal year and the total compensation paid to each nominee by each fund and by the Franklin funds complex for the year ended December 31, 2025.

Why should you vote for your fund's nominees?

Your Trustees are independent, experienced, and highly qualified fiduciaries who exercise strong fund governance practices.

What is the voting requirement for electing Trustees?

For Putnam Managed Municipal Income Trust and Putnam Municipal Opportunities Trust, if a quorum of preferred shares is present at the annual meeting, the two nominees for election as Trustees by the holders of the preferred shares, voting as a separate class, who receive the greatest number of affirmative votes cast by holders of the preferred shares will be elected Trustees. If a quorum of common and preferred shares is present, the applicable number of nominees for election as Trustees by the holders of the preferred shares and common shares, voting together as a single class, who receive the greatest number of affirmative votes cast by the holders of the preferred shares and common shares, voting together as a single class, will be elected as Trustees.

For Putnam Master Intermediate Income Trust and Putnam Premier Income Trust, if a quorum is present at the annual meeting, the applicable number of nominees for election as Trustees who receive the greatest number of affirmative votes cast by shareholders will be elected as Trustees.

The Trustees unanimously recommend that shareholders vote "FOR" the election of your fund's nominees.

Further Information About Voting and the Annual Meeting

Location. As part of our effort to maintain a safe and healthy environment at the annual meeting, each fund and the Trustees closely monitor statements issued by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (cdc.gov). For that reason, the Trustees reserve the right to reconsider the date, time and/or means of convening your fund's meeting. Subject to any restrictions imposed by applicable law, the Trustees may choose to conduct the meeting solely by means of remote communications, or may hold a "hybrid" meeting where some participants attend in person and others attend by means of remote communications. If the Trustees choose to change the date, time and/or means of convening your fund's meeting, the fund will announce the decision to do so in advance, and details on how to participate will be issued by press release and filed with the SEC as additional proxy material. Attendees are also encouraged to review guidance from public health authorities on this issue.

Meeting Quorum and Methods of Tabulation. The shareholders of each fund vote separately with respect to the proposals. For Putnam Master Intermediate Income Trust and Putnam Premier Income Trust, the presence in person or by proxy of a majority of the shares entitled to vote constitutes a quorum for the

13

transaction of business with respect to any proposal at the annual meeting. For Putnam Managed Municipal Income Trust and Putnam Municipal Opportunities Trust, thirty percent of the shares entitled to vote constitutes a quorum for the transaction of business with respect to any proposal at the annual meeting, except that for any proposal on which the preferred shares or common shares vote as separate classes, thirty percent of the shares of each class entitled to vote constitutes a quorum for the transaction of business with respect to that proposal by that class.

The tellers will count the total number of votes cast "for" approval of each proposal for purposes of determining whether sufficient affirmative votes have been cast. Shares represented by proxies that reflect abstentions and "broker non-votes" (i.e., shares held by brokers or nominees as to which (i) instructions have not been received from the beneficial owners or the persons entitled to vote and (ii) the broker or nominee does not have discretionary voting authority on a particular matter) will be counted as shares that are present and entitled to vote for purposes of determining the presence of a quorum, but do not count as votes cast for a proposal. With respect to Proposal 1a and 1b, neither abstentions nor broker non-votes have an effect on the outcome of the proposal.

If you hold fund shares through a service agent that has entered into a service agreement with the fund, the service agent may be the record holder of your shares. At the annual meeting, a service agent will vote shares for which it receives instructions from its customers in accordance with those instructions. A signed and dated proxy card or other authorization by a shareholder that does not specify how the shareholder's shares should be voted on a proposal may be deemed to authorize a service agent to vote such shares "for" Proposal 1a and 1b. Depending on its policies, applicable law or contractual or other restrictions, a service agent may be permitted to vote shares with respect to which it has not received specific voting instructions from its customers. In those cases, the service agent may, but may not be required to, vote such shares in the same proportion as those shares for which the service agent has received voting instructions. This practice is commonly referred to as "echo voting."

Shareholders who object to a proposal in this Proxy Statement will not be entitled under Massachusetts law or the Agreement and Declaration of Trust of the particular fund to demand payment for, or an appraisal of, their shares.

The Amended and Restated Bylaws of Putnam Managed Municipal Income Trust and Putnam Municipal Opportunities Trust each include a provision (together, the "Control Share Provision") pursuant to which, in summary, a shareholder who obtains beneficial ownership of fund shares in a "Control Share Acquisition" may exercise voting rights with respect to such shares only to the extent the authorization of such voting rights is approved by other shareholders of the fund. The Control Share Provision is primarily intended to protect the interests of the fund and its shareholders by limiting the risk that the fund will become subject to undue influence by activist investors. As described further below, the Control Share Provision does not eliminate voting rights for shares acquired in Control Share Acquisitions, but rather, it entrusts a fund's other "non-interested" shareholders with determining whether to approve the authorization of voting rights for such shares.

Subject to various conditions and exceptions, the Amended and Restated Bylaws of Putnam Managed Municipal Income Trust and Putnam Municipal Opportunities Trust define a "Control Share Acquisition" to include an acquisition of fund shares (other than remarketed preferred shares of a series existing as of September 18, 2020) that, but for the Control Share Provision, would entitle the beneficial owner, upon the acquisition of such shares, to vote or direct the voting of shares having voting power in the election of Trustees

14

(except for elections of Trustees by preferred shareholders of the fund voting as a separate class) within any of the following ranges: (i) one-tenth or more, but less than one-fifth of all voting power; (ii) one-fifth or more, but less than one-third of all voting power; (iii) one-third or more, but less than a majority of all voting power; or (iv) a majority or more of all voting power.

Shares acquired before September 18, 2020 are excluded from the definition of Control Share Acquisition, though such shares are included in assessing whether any subsequent share acquisition exceeds one of the enumerated thresholds. Subject to various conditions and procedural requirements set forth in the Amended and Restated Bylaws of Putnam Managed Municipal Income Trust and Putnam Municipal Opportunities Trust, including the delivery of a "Control Share Acquisition Statement" to the fund's Clerk setting forth certain required information, a shareholder who obtains beneficial ownership of shares in a Control Share Acquisition generally may request a vote of fund shareholders (excluding such acquiring shareholder and certain other interested shareholders) to approve the authorization of voting rights for such shares at the next annual meeting of fund shareholders, notice of which has not been given before the fund has received the Control Share Acquisition Statement.

On February 23, 2023, the Trustees of Putnam Managed Municipal Income Trust and Putnam Municipal Opportunities Trust each determined to exempt all prior, and, until further notice, new purchases of the funds' shares that might otherwise be deemed Control Share Acquisitions under the Control Share Provision. Thus, the Control Share Provision currently has no effect, and will not affect voting at the annual meeting in any way.

Special Rule for Proportional Voting for Putnam Managed Municipal Income Trust and Putnam Municipal Opportunities Trust. For funds listed on the New York Stock Exchange that have outstanding preferred shares, in accordance with the rules of the exchange, brokerage firms may vote for or against a proposal, on behalf of their clients who beneficially own the remarketed or auction rate preferred shares and from whom they have not received voting instructions, in the same proportion as votes for and against the proposal that have been received from other holders of preferred shares if (i) a minimum of 30% of the outstanding preferred shares have been voted by the holders of preferred shares, (ii) less than 10% of the outstanding preferred shares have voted against the proposal, and (iii) for any proposal on which common and preferred shares vote together as a single class, the holders of the common shares have approved the proposal.

Other business. The Trustees know of no matters other than those described in this proxy statement to be brought before the annual meeting. If, however, any other matters properly come before the annual meeting, proxies will be voted on these matters in accordance with the judgment of the persons named in the enclosed proxy card(s).

Simultaneous meetings. The annual meeting of shareholders of your fund is called to be held at the same time as the meetings of shareholders of the other Putnam closed-end funds. It is anticipated that all annual meetings will be held simultaneously. However, if any shareholder at the annual meeting objects to the holding of a simultaneous meeting and moves for an adjournment of the meeting to a time promptly after the simultaneous meetings, the persons named as proxies will vote in favor of adjournment.

Solicitation of proxies. In addition to soliciting proxies by mail, the Trustees of your fund and employees of Franklin Advisers and Computershare Inc. ("Computershare"), as well as their agents, may solicit proxies in person or by telephone. Your fund may arrange to have a proxy solicitation firm call you to record your voting instructions by telephone. The procedures for voting proxies by telephone are designed to authenticate shareholders' identities, to allow them to authorize the voting of their shares in accordance with their

15

instructions, and to confirm that their instructions have been properly recorded. Shareholders would be called at the phone number Franklin Advisers or Computershare has in its records for their accounts (or that Franklin Advisers or Computershare obtains from agents acting on behalf of financial intermediaries, in the case of shares held in street name through a bank, broker or other financial intermediary) and would be given an opportunity to authenticate their identities and to authorize the proxies to vote their shares at the annual meeting in accordance with their instructions. To ensure that shareholders' instructions have been recorded correctly, they will also receive a confirmation of their instructions in the mail. A special toll-free number will be available in case the information contained in the confirmation is incorrect. Your fund has been advised by counsel that these procedures are consistent with the requirements of applicable law. If these procedures were subject to a successful legal challenge, such votes would not be counted at the annual meeting. Your fund is unaware of any such challenge at this time.

Shareholders have the opportunity to submit their voting instructions over the internet by using a program provided by a third-party vendor selected by Franklin Advisers or by automated telephone service. To vote online using the internet, please access the internet address listed on the proxy card and follow the instructions on the internet site. To record your voting instructions using the automated telephone service, use the toll-free number listed on your proxy card. The internet and telephone voting procedures are designed to authenticate shareholder identities, to allow shareholders to give their voting instructions, and to confirm that shareholders' instructions have been recorded properly.

Your fund's Trustees have adopted a general policy of maintaining confidentiality in the voting of proxies. Consistent with this policy, your fund may solicit proxies from shareholders who have not voted their shares or who have abstained from voting, including brokers and nominees.

Expense of the solicitation. For managing the funds' overall proxy campaign, Computershare will receive a proxy management fee plus reimbursement for out-of-pocket expenses. Computershare will also receive fees in connection with assembling, mailing and transmitting the notice of meeting, proxy statement and related materials on behalf of the funds, tabulating those votes that are received, and any solicitation of additional votes. While the fees received by Computershare will vary based on the level of additional solicitation necessary to achieve quorum and shareholder approval of the Trustees' recommendations, the project management fees paid to Computershare are estimated to be approximately $3,360 for Putnam Managed Municipal Income Trust, $2,701 for Putnam Master Intermediate Income Trust, $3,310 for Putnam Municipal Opportunities Trust, and $3,041 for Putnam Premier Income Trust (approximately $12,412 in the aggregate for all funds). In addition, banks, brokers or other financial intermediaries holding shares as nominees will be reimbursed, upon request, for their reasonable expenses in sending solicitation materials to the principals of the accounts and tabulating those instructions that are received. After reimbursement of these expenses, it is estimated that Putnam Managed Municipal Income Trust, Putnam Master Intermediate Income Trust, Putnam Municipal Opportunities Trust, and Putnam Premier Income Trust will incur total costs of approximately $12,811, $12,004, $14,642, and $22,060, respectively, in connection with the proxy campaign (approximately $61,517) in the aggregate for all funds). Other costs associated with the proxy campaign include the expenses of the preparation and printing of proxy materials, and postage, which are estimated to be approximately $16,766 (this amount does not include costs associated with proxy statement printing). Each fund is bearing all of its proxy campaign costs.

Revocation of proxies. Giving your proxy, whether by returning the proxy card or providing voting instructions over the internet or by telephone, does not affect your right to attend the annual meeting and vote.

16

Proxies, including proxies given by telephone or over the internet, may be revoked at any time before they are voted, either (i) by a written revocation received by the Clerk of your fund, (ii) by properly executing and submitting a later-dated proxy, (iii) by recording later-dated voting instructions by telephone or via the internet, or (iv) by attending the annual meeting and voting in person. If your shares are held in street name through a bank, broker or other financial intermediary, please check your voting instruction form or contact your bank, broker or other financial intermediary for instructions on how to change or revoke your vote.

Dates for receipt of shareholders' proposals for subsequent meetings of shareholders. It is currently anticipated that your fund's next annual meeting of shareholders will be held on April 16, 2027, although the Trustees of your fund reserve the right to set an earlier or later date for the annual meeting for the next fiscal year. Shareholder proposals that are intended to be included in the proxy statement for that meeting and presented at the 2027 annual meeting must have been received by your fund on or before November 10, 2026. In order for a shareholder proposal to be included in the proxy statement, both the submitting shareholder and the proposal itself must satisfy the requirements set forth in Rule 14a-8 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The fund may exclude from the proxy materials and consideration at a meeting certain proposals as permitted by Securities and Exchange Commission rules and state law. Shareholders who wish to make a proposal at the 2027 annual meeting without including the proposal in the fund's proxy statement must ensure that the proposal was received by your fund in good order and in compliance with all applicable legal requirements, including the requirements set forth in your fund's Amended and Restated Bylaws, between January 17, 2027 and February 16, 2027. You may obtain a copy of your fund's Amended and Restated Bylaws by submitting a request in writing to The Putnam Closed-End Funds, 100 Federal Street, Boston, Massachusetts 02110.

Postponement and Adjournment. To the extent permitted by each fund's Declaration of Trust and Amended and Restated Bylaws, any meeting of shareholders may be postponed or cancelled by the Trustees upon public notice before the time scheduled for the meeting.

In addition to any ability that the persons named as proxies may have to propose and/or vote on an adjournment of any meeting of shareholders as described below, to the extent permitted by each fund's Declaration of Trust and Amended and Restated Bylaws, any meeting of shareholders may, by action of the chair of the meeting, be adjourned from time to time without notice (other than announcement at the meeting at which the adjournment is taken) with respect to one or more matters to be considered at the meeting to a designated date (which may be more than 120 days after the date initially set for the meeting), time and place, whether or not a quorum is present with respect to the matter. Upon motion of the chair of the meeting, the question of adjournment may (but need not) be submitted to a vote of the shareholders, and in that case, any adjournment with respect to one or more matters must be approved by the vote of holders of a majority of the shares present and entitled to vote with respect to the matter or matters to be adjourned and, if approved, such adjournment shall take place without further notice (other than announcement at the meeting at which the adjournment is taken). If the quorum required for the meeting has not been met, the persons named as proxies may propose adjournment of the meeting and vote all shares that they are entitled to vote in favor of such adjournment. If the quorum required for the meeting has been met, but sufficient votes in accordance with the Trustees' recommendations are not received by the time scheduled for the meeting, the persons named as proxies may also propose adjournment of the meeting with respect to any or all proposals in order to permit solicitation of additional proxies. The persons named as proxies will vote in favor of adjournment those proxies that they are entitled to vote in accordance with the Trustees' recommendation. They will vote against adjournment those proxies required to be voted contrary to the Trustees' recommendation. Unless a proxy is

17

otherwise limited in this regard, any shares present and entitled to vote at a meeting that are represented by broker non-votes, may, at the discretion of the proxies named therein, be voted in favor of such an adjournment. Adjournments may be proposed for a reasonable period or periods to permit further solicitation of proxies or for any other reason. The funds will bear the costs of any additional solicitation and of any adjourned session. Any proposal for which sufficient votes consistent with the Trustees' recommendation have been received may be acted upon and considered final regardless of whether the meeting is adjourned to permit additional solicitation with respect to any other proposal that may properly come before the meeting.

The record date initially set for a meeting will continue to apply to any adjourned or postponed session of that meeting, unless the Trustees fix a new record date for the meeting. If a new record date is fixed for a meeting, any proxy received by a fund from a shareholder who was a shareholder of record on both the record date originally set for the meeting and the new record date for the meeting will remain in full force and effect unless explicitly revoked by the shareholder.

Duplicate mailings. As permitted by SEC rules, the funds' practice is to send a single copy of the proxy statement to shareholders who share the same last name and address, unless a shareholder previously has requested otherwise. Separate proxy cards will be included with the proxy statement for each account registered at that address. If you would prefer to receive your own copy of the proxy statement, please contact Computershare Inc., PO Box 43131, Providence, RI 02940-3131.

Financial information. Your fund's Clerk will furnish to you, upon request and without charge, a copy of the fund's annual report for its most recent fiscal year, and a copy of its semiannual report for any subsequent semiannual period. You may direct these requests to Putnam Investor Services, P.O. Box 219697, Kansas City, MO 64121-9697 or by phone at 1-800-225-1581.

Limitation of Trustee liability. Your fund's Declaration of Trust provides that the fund will indemnify its Trustees and officers against liabilities and expenses incurred in connection with litigation in which they may be involved because of their offices with the fund, except if it is determined in the manner specified in the

18

Declaration of Trust that they have not acted in good faith, have not acted in the reasonable belief that their actions were in the best interests of the fund or at least were not opposed to the best interests of the fund, or had reasonable cause to believe their actions were unlawful in the case of a criminal proceeding, or that such indemnification would relieve any officer or Trustee of any liability to the fund or its shareholders arising by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of his or her duties. Your fund, at its expense, provides liability insurance for the benefit of its Trustees and officers.

Auditor. The Trustees have selected PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP ("PwC"), 101 Seaport Boulevard, Boston, Massachusetts 02210 as the auditor for each fund's current fiscal year. The firm was selected primarily on the basis of its expertise as an auditor of investment companies, the quality of its audit services and the competitiveness of its fees. Representatives of PwC are expected to be available or present at the annual meeting and to have the opportunity to make a statement and respond to appropriate questions.

The following table presents fees billed to each indicated fund in each of its last two fiscal years by the fund's auditor:

Putnam Managed Municipal Income Trust

Putnam Master Intermediate Income Trust

Putnam Municipal Opportunities Trust

Putnam Premier Income Trust

Audit Fees represent fees billed for a fund's last two fiscal years relating to the audit and review of the financial statements included in annual reports and registration statements, and other services that are normally provided in connection with statutory and regulatory filings or engagements.

Audit-Related Fees represent fees billed in a fund's last two fiscal years for services traditionally performed by the fund's auditor, including accounting consultation for proposed transactions or concerning financial accounting and reporting standards and other audit or attest services not required by statute or regulation.

19

Tax Fees represent fees billed in a fund's last two fiscal years for tax compliance, tax planning and tax advice services. Tax planning and tax advice services include assistance with tax audits, employee benefit plans and requests for rulings or technical advice from taxing authorities.

The following tables present the amounts the fund's auditor billed for aggregate non-audit fees to each fund, Putnam Management, as the fund's investment manager prior to July 15, 2024, Franklin Advisers, as the fund's investment manager for the period on and after July 15, 2024, and any entity controlling, controlled by or under common control with Putnam Management or Franklin Advisers that provides ongoing services to the fund in each of the fund's last two fiscal years:

Pre-Approval Policies of the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee of the Board has determined that, as a matter of policy, all work performed for the funds by the funds' auditors will be pre-approved by the Audit Committee itself and thus will generally not be subject to pre-approval procedures.

The Audit Committee also has adopted a policy to pre-approve the engagement by Franklin Advisers and certain affiliated companies of the funds' auditors, even in circumstances where pre-approval is not required by applicable law. Any such requests by Franklin Advisers or its affiliates are typically submitted in writing to the Audit Committee and explain, among other things, the nature of the proposed engagement, the estimated fees, and why the work should be performed by that particular audit firm as opposed to another one. In reviewing these requests, the Audit Committee considers, among other things, whether the provision of such services by the audit firm is compatible with the independence of the audit firm. All services provided by PwC to the Fund or to the Service Affiliates that were required to be pre-approved by the Audit Committee were pre-approved.

Since the beginning of the two most recently completed fiscal years of each fund, all work performed by the auditors for the funds, Putnam Management, the investment manager to the funds prior to July 15, 2024, Franklin Advisers, the investment manager to the funds on and after July 15, 2024, and any entity controlling, controlled by or under common control with Putnam Management or Franklin Advisers that provides ongoing services to the funds was approved in advance by the Committee or a member of the Committee pursuant to the pre-approval policies discussed above.

The Audit Committee has submitted the following report:

The Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed with management of the funds the audited financial statements of each fund for the last fiscal year. The Audit Committee has discussed with each fund's independent auditor the matters required to be discussed by Statements on Auditing Standard No. 61 (SAS No. 61), as amended, supplemented or superseded from time to time. The Audit Committee has received the written disclosures and the letter from each fund's independent auditor required by the applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding the independent auditor's communications with the Audit Committee concerning independence and has discussed with the independent auditor its independence. Based on the foregoing review and discussions, the Audit Committee recommended

20

to the Trustees that each fund's audited financial statements for the last fiscal year be included in each fund's annual report to shareholders.

Section 16(a) Reports. Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act and Section 30(h) of the 1940 Act, and the rules thereunder, require each fund's officers and Trustees, officers and directors of the investment adviser, affiliated persons of the investment adviser, and persons who beneficially own more than 10% of a registered class of a fund's shares, to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the SEC and the NYSE. Based solely on a review of the reports filed with the SEC and upon representations that no additional Section 16(a) forms were required to be filed, each of Putnam Premier Income Trust, Putnam Master Intermediate Income Trust, and Putnam Managed Municipal Income Trust believes that (during its most recently completed fiscal year), and Putnam Municipal Opportunities Trust believes that (during its current fiscal year), all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to each fund's officers, Trustees and greater than 10% beneficial owners were complied with.
