Proxy Statement 2009
Proxy Statement (PDF, 33k)
In 2009, Franklin Resources, Inc. (the "Company") is taking advantage of the new Securities and Exchange Commission rules allowing issuers to provide proxy materials to stockholders on the Internet. The new rules enable the Company to provide its stockholders with the information they need, while lowering the cost of the delivery of the materials and reducing the environmental impact of printing and mailing hard copies. Instead of the printed proxy materials that stockholders have received in the past, some of the Company's stockholders will receive a notice in the mail with instructions on how to access proxy materials and vote on the Internet, and other stockholders will receive paper copies of the proxy materials. If you received a notice and would like paper copies of the proxy materials, please follow the instructions on your notice for requesting such copies free of charge.
