Important Legal Information

While an asset allocation plan can be a valuable tool to help reduce overall volatility, all investments involve some degree of risk. Generally, investors should be comfortable with some fluctuation in the value of their investments, especially over the short-term. Stocks have historically outperformed other asset classes over the long term, they tend to fluctuate in value more dramatically over the short term. Bond prices generally move in the opposite direction of interest rates. Thus, as the prices of bonds in the fund adjust to a rise in interest rates, the fund's share price may decline. Because these funds invest in underlying funds, which may engage in a variety of investment strategies involving certain risks, Franklin Templeton Retirement Target Funds may be subject to those same risks. Investors should consult their financial advisor for help selecting the appropriate fund of funds, or fund combination, based on an evaluation of their investment objectives, retirement time horizons and risk tolerance. The funds' risks are described more fully in the prospectus.

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.

For more information on any of our funds, contact your financial advisor or download a free prospectus. Investors should carefully consider a fund's investment goals, risks, sales charges and expenses before investing. The prospectus contains this and other information. Please read the prospectus carefully before investing or sending money.

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. The expense ratio for this fund includes estimated indirect expenses of its underlying funds.
  6. The Gross Expense Ratio does not include an expense reduction contractually guaranteed through at least the dates noted below. Please see the prospectus for additional information. Total returns, yield and distribution rate reflect the expense reduction, without which the results would have been lower.
