      NOTES

  (a) Percentages indicated are based on portfolio market value of $548,198,316.

  (b) The aggregate identified cost on a tax basis is $544,382,657
      resulting in gross unrealized appreciation and depreciation of
      $18,654,537 and $14,838,876, respectively, or net unrealized
      appreciation of $3,815,661.

(RAT) The Moody's or Standard & Poor's ratings indicated are believed to
      be the most recent ratings available at July 31, 2004 for the securities
      listed. Ratings are generally ascribed to securities at the time of
      issuance. While the agencies may from time to time revise such ratings,
      they undertake no obligation to do so, and the ratings do not
      necessarily represent what the agencies would ascribe to these
      securities at July 31, 2004. Securities rated by Putnam are indicated by
      "/P".

(NON) Non-income-producing security.

(RES) Restricted, excluding 144A securities, as to public resale. The
      total market value of restricted securities held at July 31, 2004 was
      $22,427,175 or 4.1% of portfolio market value.

(SEG) A portion of this security was pledged and segregated with the
      custodian to cover margin requirements for futures contracts at July 31,
      2004.

      144A after the name of a security represents those exempt from
      registration under Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933. These
      securities may be resold in transactions exempt from registration,
      normally to qualified institutional buyers.


      The rates shown on IFB, which are securities paying interest rates that
      vary inversely to changes in the market interest rates, VRDN and
      mandatory put bonds are the current interest rates at July 31, 2004.

      The fund had the following industry group concentrations greater than
      10% at July 31, 2004 (as a percentage of portfolio market value):

      Health care        27.0%
      Utilities          19.7
      Transportation     13.8

      The fund had the following insurance concentrations greater than 10% at
      July 31, 2004 (as a percentage of portfolio market value):

      MBIA               13.6%
      AMBAC              11.8

      The dates shown on Mandatory Put Bonds are the next mandatory put dates.

      Security valuation Tax-exempt bonds and notes are valued at fair value
      on the basis of valuations provided by an independent pricing service,
      approved by the Trustees.  Such services use information with respect to
      transactions in bonds, quotations from bond dealers, market transactions
      in comparable securities and various relationships between securities in
      determining value.  Other investments including restricted securities
      are valued at fair value following procedures approved by the Trustees.
      Such valuations and procedures are reviewed periodically by the
      Trustees.

      Futures and options contracts The fund may use futures and options
      contracts to hedge against changes in the values of securities the fund
      owns or expects to purchase.  The fund may also write options on
      securities it owns or in which it may invest to increase its current
      returns.

      The potential risk to the fund is that the change in value of futures
      and options contracts may not correspond to the change in value of the
      hedged instruments. In addition, losses may arise from changes in the
      value of the underlying instruments, if there is an illiquid secondary
      market for the contracts, or if the counterparty to the contract is
      unable to perform. Risks may exceed amounts recognized on the statement
      of assets and liabilities. When the contract is closed, the fund records
      a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the
      contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was
      closed.  Realized gains and losses on purchased options are included in
      realized gains and losses on investment securities.

      Futures contracts are valued at the quoted daily settlement prices
      established by the exchange on which they trade.  The fund and the
      broker agree to exchange an amount of cash equal to the daily
      fluctuation in the value of the futures contract.  Such receipts or
      payments are known as "variation margin." Exchange traded options are
      valued at the last sale price, or if no sales are reported, the last bid
      price for purchased options and the last ask price for written options.
      Options traded over-the-counter are valued using prices supplied by
      dealers.  Futures and written option contracts outstanding at period
      end, if any, are listed after the fund's portfolio.

      For additional information regarding the fund please see the
      fund's most recent annual or semi-annual shareholder report filed
      on the Securities and Exchange Commission's Web site,
      www.sec.gov., or visit Putnam Individual Investor Website at
