(the "Portfolio") of proxies to be voted at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the "Meeting") of the Portfolio, to be held at the Portfolio's principal executive offices atCitigroup Center, 153 East 53rd Street, 14th Floor, Conference Room K, New York, New York, on September 12, 200218, 2003 at 2:4:00 P.M. (New York Time)time), and at any adjournments thereof, for the purposes set forth in the accompanying Notice of Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the "Notice"). The cost of soliciting proxies and the expenses incurred in preparing this proxy statement will be borne by the Portfolio. Proxy solicitations will be made mainly by mail. In addition, certain officers, Directors and employees of the Portfolio; Citigroup Global Markets Inc. ("CGM", formerly known as Salomon Smith Barney, Inc. ("Salomon Smith Barney"); Smith Barney Fund Management LLC ("SBFM" or the "Manager"), the Portfolio's investment manager, which is an affiliate of Salomon Smith Barney;CGM; and/or PFPC Global Fund Services ("PFPC"), the Portfolio's sub-transfertransfer agent, may solicit proxies in person or by telephone or mail.

In addition, the Portfolio will reimburse brokerage firms or other record holders for their expenses in forwarding solicitation materials to beneficial owners of shares of the Portfolio. The Annual Report of the Portfolio, including audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2002,2003, has previously been furnished to all shareholders of the Portfolio.

All properly executed proxies received prior to the Meeting will be voted at the Meeting in accordance with the instructions marked thereon or otherwise as provided therein. Unless instructions to the contrary are marked, shares represented by the proxies will be voted "FOR" all the proposalsproposal listed in the Notice. For purposes of determining the presence of a quorum for transacting business at the Meeting, abstentions and broker "non-votes" (i.e. proxies from brokers or nominees indicating that such persons have not received instructions from the beneficial owner or other persons entitled to vote shares on a particular matter with respect to which the brokers or nominees do not have discretionary power) will be treated as shares that are present but which have not been voted. Because the proposal requires a proportion of the votes cast for theirits approval, abstentions and broker "non-votes" may influence whether a quorum is present but will have no impact on the requisite approval of athe proposal. A quorum consists of the presence (in person or by proxy) of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of the Portfolio entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the Meeting. Proposal 1 requires for approval the affirmative vote of a plurality of the votes cast at the Meeting with a quorum present. Any proxy may be revoked at any time prior to the exercise by submitting another proxy bearing a later date or by giving written notice to the Secretary of the Portfolio at the Portfolio's address indicated above or by voting in person at the Meeting. The Board knows of no business other than that specifically mentioned in the Notice that will be presented for consideration at the Meeting. If any other matters are properly presented, it is the intention of the persons named in the enclosed proxy to vote in accordance with their best judgment to the extent permissible under applicable law.

The Portfolio has two classes of shares: Common Stock, par value $.001 per share, and municipal auction rate cumulative preferred stock ("Preferred Shares"), which have a liquidation preference in the amount of $25,000 per share (collectively with the Common Stock, the "Shares"). Shareholders of the Portfolio as of the Record Date will be entitled to one vote on each matter for each Share held and a fractional vote with respect to fractional Shares, with no cumulative voting rights. As of the Record Date, the Portfolio had outstanding 41,855,575.5541,855,575.546 shares of Common Stock, of which 41,059,304.0041,081,802.884 shares (98%(98.1%) were held of record but not beneficially owned by CEDE & CO., P.O.

In determining whether to adjourn the Meeting, the following factors may be considered: the nature of the proposals that are the subject of the Meeting, the percentage of votes actually cast, the percentage of negative votes actually cast, the nature of any further solicitation and the information to be provided to shareholders with respect to the reasons for the solicitation. Any such adjournment will require the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares represented at the Meeting. The persons named as proxies will vote in favor of such adjournment those shares which they are entitled to vote and which have voted in favor of such proposals.the proposal.

The Class II Directors and the Class III Directors are currently serving terms which will expire at the 2004 and 2005 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, respectively.

Fees for the annual audit of the Portfolio's financial statements by KPMG for the fiscal year ended May 31, 20022003 were $32,500.$36,000. Financial Information Systems Design and Implementation Fees. There were no fees billed for financial information systems design and implementation services rendered by KPMG to the Portfolio, SBFM and entities controlling, controlled by or under common control with SBFM that provide services to the Portfolio for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2002.2003. All Other Fees. The aggregate fees billed for all other non-audit services, including fees for tax related services, rendered by KPMG to the Portfolio, SBFM and entities controlled by or affiliated with SBFM that provide services to the Portfolio for the fiscal year ended May 31, 20022003 were $9,500.$16.4 million. The Audit Committee of the Portfolio has determined that provision of these non-audit services is compatible with maintaining the independence of KPMG. Required Vote Proposal 1 requires for approval the affirmative vote of a majority of votes cast at the Meeting with a quorum present, in person or by proxy, by the shareholders of the Portfolio voting on the matter. Because abstentions and broker non-votes are not treated as shares voted, abstentions and broker non-votes would have no impact on Proposal 1. The Board of Directors, including the "non-interested" Directors, recommends that the shareholders vote "FOR" the Portfolio's nominees for Director. 10 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Beneficial Owners As of the record date, to the knowledge of the Portfolio and the Board, no single person or "group" (as that term is used in section 13(d) of the 1934 Act), beneficially owned more than 5% of the outstanding shares of the Portfolio. Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Section 30(h) of the 1940 Act require the Portfolio's officers and directors, the Manager, affiliates of the Manager, and persons who beneficially own more than ten percent of a registered class of the Portfolio's outstanding securities to file reports of ownership of the Portfolio's securities and changes in such ownership with the SEC and The New York Stock Exchange, Inc. ("NYSE"). Such persons are required by SEC regulations to furnish the Portfolio with copies of all such filings. Based solely upon its review of the copies of such filings received by it and written representations by such persons, the Portfolio believes that, for the fiscal year 2002,2003, all filing requirements applicable to such persons were complied with except that timely filings were not made for Kaprel Ozsolak on Form 3, Virgil Cumming on Form 3, Michael Day on Form 3, and Robert Wallace on Form 3. However, during the 2002 fiscal year, no purchases and sales were made by any of the foregoing people and they have each subsequently filed Form 3s.with. OTHER MATTERS The Portfolio knows of no other matters which are to be brought before the Meeting. However, if any other matters not now known or determined properly come before the Meeting, it is the intention of the persons named in the enclosed form of Proxy to vote such Proxy in accordance with their judgment on such matters. All proxies received will be voted in favor of all proposals, unless otherwise directed therein. 11 SUBMISSION OF SHAREHOLDER PROPOSALS Shareholder proposals intended to be presented at the 20022004 Annual Meeting of the shareholders of the Portfolio must be received by April 17, 20032004 to be included in the proxy statement and the form of proxy relating to that meeting, as the Portfolio expects that the 20022004 Annual Meeting will be held in September 2002.2004. The submission by a shareholder of a proposal for inclusion in the proxy statement does not guarantee that it will be included. Shareholder proposals are subject to certain regulations under the federal securities laws. The persons named as proxies for the Annual Meeting of Shareholders for 20022004 will have discretionary authority to vote on any matter presented by a shareholder for action at that meeting unless the Portfolio receives notice of the matter by June 27, 2003,2004, in which case these persons will not have discretionary voting authority except as provided in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules governing shareholder proposals. It is important that proxies be returned promptly. Shareholders who do not expect to attend the meetingMeeting are therefore urged to complete and sign, date and return the proxy card as soon as possible in the enclosed postage-paid envelope. By Order of the Board of Directors, Christina T. Sydor Secretary August 13, 200218, 2003 12 Appendix A MANAGED MUNICIPALS PORTFOLIO INC. AUDIT COMMITTEE CHARTER I. Composition of the Audit Committee: The Audit Committee shall be comprised of at least three directors, each of whom shall have no relationship to the Managed Municipals Portfolio Inc. (the "Company") that may interfere with the exercise of their independence from management and the Company and shall otherwise satisfy the applicable membership requirements under the rules of the New York Stock Exchange, Inc, as such requirements are interpreted by the Board of Directors in its business judgment. II. Purposes of the Audit Committee: The purposes of the Audit Committee are to assist the Board of Directors: 1. in its oversight of the Company's accounting and financial reporting principles and policies and audit controls and procedures; 2. in its oversight of the Company's financial statements and the independent audit thereof; 3. in selecting (or nominating the outside auditors to be proposed for shareholder approval in any proxy statement), evaluating and, where deemed appropriate, replacing the outside auditors; and 4. in evaluating the independence of the outside auditors. The function of the Audit Committee is oversight. The management of the Company is responsible for the preparation, presentation and integrity of the Company's financial statements. Management and the internal auditing department are responsible for maintaining appropriate accounting and financial reporting principles and policies and internal controls and procedures designed to assure compliance with accounting standards and applicable laws and regulations. The outside auditors are responsible for planning and carrying out a proper audit in accordance with Generally Accepted Auditing Standards. In fulfilling their responsibilities hereunder, it is recognized that members of the Audit Committee are not full-time employees of the Company and are not, and do not represent themselves to be, accountants or auditors by profession or experts in the fields of accounting or auditing. As such, it is not the duty or responsibility of the Audit Committee or its members to conduct "field work" or other types of auditing or accounting reviews or procedures, and each member of the Audit Committee shall be entitled to rely on (i) the integrity of those persons and organizations within and outside the Company that it receives information from and (ii) the accuracy of the financial and other information provided to the Audit Committee by such persons and organizations absent actual knowledge to the contrary (which shall be promptly reported to the Board of Directors). A-1 The outside auditors for the Company are ultimately accountable to the Board of Directors (as assisted by the Audit Committee). The Board of Directors, with the assistance of the Audit Committee, has ultimate authority and responsibility to select, evaluate and, where appropriate, replace the outside auditors (or to nominate the outside auditors to be proposed for shareholder approval in the proxy statement). The outside auditors shall submit to the Audit Committee annually a formal written statement delineating all relationships between the outside auditors and the Company ("Statement as to Independence") which, in the auditor's professional judgment may be reasonably thought to bear on independence, addressing at least the matters set forth in Independence Standards Board No. 1. III. Meetings of the Audit Committee: The Audit Committee shall meet at least annually with the outside auditors to discuss the annual audited financial statements and results of their audit. The Audit Committee may request any officer or employee of the Company or the Company's outside counsel or outside auditors to attend a meeting of the Audit Committee or to meet with any members of, or consultants to, the Audit Committee. IV. Duties and Powers of the Audit Committee: To carry out its purposes, the Audit Committee shall have the following duties and powers: 1. to provide advice to the Board of Directors in selecting, evaluating or replacing outside auditors; 2. to review the fees charged by the outside auditors for audit and non-audit services; 3. to ensure that the outside auditors prepare and deliver annually a Statement as to Independence (it being understood that the outside auditors are responsible for the accuracy and completeness of this Statement), to discuss with the outside auditors any relationships or services disclosed in this Statement that may impact the objectivity and independence of the Company's outside auditors and to recommend that the Board of Directors take appropriate action in response to this Statement to satisfy itself of the outside auditors' independence; 4. to instruct the auditors that the outside auditors are ultimately accountable to the Board of Directors and Audit Committee; 5. to advise management and the outside auditors that they are expected to provide to the Audit Committee a timely analysis of significant financial reporting issues and practices; 6. to consider any reports or communications (and management's responses thereto) submitted to the Audit Committee by the outside auditors required by or referred to in SAS 61 (as codified by AU Section 380), as may be modified or supplemented, including reports and communications related to: A-2 . deficiencies noted in the audit in the design or operation of internal controls; . consideration of fraud in a financial statement audit; . detection of illegal acts; . the outside auditors' responsibility under generally accepted auditing standards; . significant accounting policies; . management judgments and accounting estimates; . adjustments arising from the audit; . the responsibility of the outside auditors for other information in documents containing audited financial statements; . disagreements with management; . consultation by management with other accountants; . major issues discussed with management prior to retention of the outside auditors; . difficulties encountered with management in performing the audit; . the outside auditors' judgments about the quality of the entity's accounting principles; and . reviews of interim financial information conducted by the outside auditors. 7. with respect to reporting and recommendations, to discuss with the Company's General Counsel any significant legal matters that may have a material effect on the financial statements, the Company's compliance policies, including material notices to or inquiries received from governmental agencies; 8. to prepare any report, including any recommendation of the Audit Committee, required by the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission to be included in the Company's annual proxy statement; 9. to review this Charter at least annually and recommend any changes to the full Board of Directors; and 10.to report its activities to the full Board of Directors on a regular basis and to make such recommendations with respect to the above and other matters as the Audit Committee may deem necessary or appropriate.
