Important Legal Information

• Most Franklin Templeton funds offer multiple share classes. Share classes are subject to different fees and expenses, which will affect their performance. In general, Class A/A1 have a maximum initial sales charge; Class C/C1 shares have a 1% contingent deferred sales charge; Class Z, Advisor Class and Class R6 shares have no sales charges nor Rule 12b-1 fees; Class R shares have no sales charges, but do have a Rule 12b-1 fee.
• 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 charge. 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 professional or download a 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.
• All investments involve risks, including possible loss of principal. The fund is actively managed and could experience losses if the investment manager's or sub-advisors' judgment about particular investments made for the fund prove to be incorrect. Investments in derivatives involve costs and create economic leverage, which may result in significant volatility and cause the fund to participate in losses (as well as gains) that significantly exceed the fund's initial investment. The market values of securities owned by the fund will go up or down, sometimes rapidly or unpredictably. Liquidity risk may exist when securities have become more difficult to sell, or are unable to be sold, at the price at which they have been valued. The sub-advisors may not be successful in maintaining effective and operational trading models used to implement systematic strategies. An issuer of debt securities may fail to make interest payments or repay principal when due. Lower-rated or high yield debt securities involve greater credit risk, including the possibility of default or bankruptcy. When interest rates rise, debt security prices tend to fall. Foreign investments are subject to greater investment risk such as political, economic, credit, information and currency fluctuation risks. Investments in emerging markets are subject to the risks of foreign investing and have additional heightened risks. Commodity and commodity-linked investments present unique risks, are speculative and can be extremely volatile. Please see the prospectus and summary prospectus for information on these as well as other risk considerations.

Footnotes

1. Short Exposure: Sum of the short exposures, directly or through derivatives, as a percentage of total assets.
2. Source: Hedgemark. Actual Allocation is a percentage of invested capital into fund managers (sub-advisors or co-managers) as of the end of the period. Percentage may not total 100% due to rounding. Target Allocations reflect end of period target allocations. The Fund may shift allocations among strategies at any time. Further, K2 may determine in its sole discretion not to allocate to one or more of the strategies and or to add new strategies. Accordingly the above target allocations are presented for illustrative purposes only, and should not be viewed as predictive of the ongoing composition of the fund's portfolio (and its managers), which may change at any time.
3. Costs associated with the fund's short positions. The fund's manager and sub-advisors use short positions in an attempt to either protect against losses or provide an additional source of returns versus long-only strategies. There is no guarantee that these positions will perform as the fund's manager or sub-advisors intended, and losses may occur.
4. Figures shown reflect certain derivatives held in the portfolio (or their underlying reference assets) and may not total 100% or may be negative due to rounding, use of derivatives, unsettled trades or other factors.
5. Net Asset Value — The amount per share you would receive if you sold shares that day.
6. Portfolio holdings are subject to change.
7. The Gross Expense Ratio does not include an expense reduction contractually guaranteed through 9/30/21. Fund investment results reflect the expense reduction ("Total Annual Operating Expenses with Waiver"); without this reduction, the results would have been lower. Please see the prospectus for additional information.
8. A statistical measurement of a fund's historical risk-adjusted performance. It is calculated by taking a fund's excess return over that of the three-month Treasury bill divided by its standard deviation. Higher values generally indicate better historical risk-adjusted performance. Based on the 3 years ended as of the date of the calculation.
9. Costs associated with the fund's short positions. The fund's manager and sub-advisors use short positions in an attempt to either protect against losses or provide an additional source of returns versus long-only strategies. There is no guarantee that these positions will perform as the fund's manager or sub-advisors intended, and losses may occur.
10. A statistical measurement of the range of a fund's total returns. In general, a higher standard deviation means greater volatility. Based on the fund's monthly returns over the 3-year period ended as of the date of the calculation.
11. A measure of potential loss in value for a portfolio over a defined period of time at a given confidence level. This statistic reflects an estimated one-month VaR exposure calculated at the 95% confidence level, which implies there is a 5% chance the portfolio will lose that VaR amount or more over that time period, assuming that portfolio holdings remain the same. It's important to note that the actual risk an investment experiences may be higher or lower than the projected VaR estimate, as both portfolio positions and market volatility levels are subject to change.
12. Manager roster includes managers that have been appointed as sub-advisors or managers of investment funds. K2 may determine in its sole discretion not to allocate to one or more of the managers and or to add new managers. Accordingly, the manager roster is presented for illustrative purposes only, and should not be viewed as predictive of the ongoing composition of the Fund's portfolio, which may change at any time.
13. Standard deviation is a statistical measurement of the dispersion of historical returns. A higher standard deviation means greater volatility. Calculated by annualizing the standard deviation of the fund's daily returns over the 1-year period ended as of the date of the calculation.
14. Source: Hedgemark. The risk allocation data above represents how the fund's expected risk is distributed across the various categories or securities shown, based on holdings within the fund for the given as-of-date. Risk is defined as VaR, which is a measure of potential loss in value for a portfolio over a defined period for a given confidence level. The VaR exposure used to calculate these risk allocation figures is as previously described above (see VaR footnote - estimated one month VaR exposure calculated at the 95% confidence level). The Fund may hold cash and cash equivalent instruments that are not shown, as they don't contribute to the risk exposure of the Fund. Where a cash position would contribute to risk (ex. foreign spot currency cash), it is included within the illustration. Information is historical and may not reflect current or future portfolio characteristics. All portfolio holdings are subject to change.
15. Indices are unmanaged and one cannot invest directly in them. Index returns do not reflect any fees, expenses or sales charges.
16. Net Exposure: Net exposure is the sum of the total value of all exposures, directly or through derivatives, as a percentage of total assets. The percentage value of the long positions less the percentage value of the short positions.
17. The annualized percentage difference between a fund's actual returns and its expected performance given its level of market risk, as measured by beta. Based on the 3-year period ended as of the date of the calculation.
18. For performance reporting purposes, the inception date for Classes A/A1, R, R6, 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 Class C shares, generally the inception date is the first day the fund commenced offering such shares. Exceptions: Templeton Global Balanced Fund Classes A and C use the inception date of the old Class A and C shares, renamed Class A1 and Class C1. For Franklin Mutual Series Funds and Franklin International Small Cap Growth Fund, the inception date for Classes A, C, R and R6 shares is the funds' oldest class', Z or Advisor, inception date. Franklin U.S. Government Money Fund Class R6 inception date is the first day it commenced offering such shares.
