Important Legal Information

Total Returns include change in share price, assume reinvestment of all distributions, and reflect the deduction of fund expenses and applicable fees. Total Returns With Sales Charge: returns reflect the deduction of the stated sales charges. Total returns, distribution rate, and yields reflect any applicable expense reductions, without which the results for those impacted funds would have been lower.

Special risks are associated with Templeton Global Opportunities Trust's foreign investments, including currency fluctuations, economic instability and political developments. Investments in emerging markets involve heightened risks related to the same factors, in addition to those associated with these markets' smaller size and lesser liquidity. These and other risk considerations are discussed in the fund's prospectus.

Footnotes

  1. Portfolio holdings are subject to change.
  2. All of the funds are subject to certain risks. Generally, investments offering potential for higher returns are accompanied by a higher degree of risk. Stocks and other equities representing an ownership interest in a corporation have historically outperformed other asset classes over the long term, but tend to fluctuate more dramatically over the short term. Bond prices are affected by interest rate changes. Bond prices, and thus a bond fund's share price, generally move in the opposite direction of interest rates. As the price of bonds in a fund adjust to a rise in interest rates, the fund's share price may decline. High-yield, lower-rated (junk) bonds generally have greater price swings and higher default risks. Foreign investing, especially in emerging markets, has additional risks such as currency and market volatility and political and social instability. These and other risks pertaining to specific funds, such as those involving investments in specialized industry sectors, such as the technology sector, which has been among the most volatile sectors in the market, or use of complex securities, are discussed in each fund's prospectus.
  3. After-tax average annual total returns represent the average change in value of an investment on an annualized basis. Returns are calculated using the highest individual federal income tax rates; state and local taxes are not considered. Your actual after-tax returns depend on your particular tax situation and may differ from those shown. The before shares sold calculation assumes taxes are paid on fund distributions (dividends and capital gains) but does not reflect taxes that may be incurred upon sale or exchange of shares. The after shares sold calculation also adjusts for taxes due if the fund investment is sold at the end of the measurement period.
  4. For performance reporting purposes, the inception date for Classes A, R, Z and Advisor Class shares of all Franklin Templeton Funds is the date of effectiveness of the fund's registration statement or the first day the fund commenced operations. For Classes B and C shares, except as subsequently noted, the inception date is the first day the fund commenced offering such shares. Franklin Income Fund Class B uses the inception date of the old Class B shares, renamed Class B1. For Mutual Series Funds and Franklin International Small Cap Growth and Franklin Large Cap Equity Funds, the inception date for Classes A, B, C and R shares is the funds' oldest class', Z or Advisor, inception date.
  5. Represents the maximum amount of Rule 12b-1 distribution and service fees the Fund may pay.
  6. A measure of the fund's volatility relative to the market, as represented by the MSCI World Value Index. A beta greater than 1.00 indicates volatility greater than the market. Based on the 3-years ended as of the date of the calculation.
  7. The amount per share you would receive if you sold shares that day.
  8. Purchase price for each share of the fund on a given day. It includes the maximum initial sales charge, if any.
