Please see the prospectus supplement for more information. If you have any questions, please contact your financial advisor or call Shareholder Services.
Beginning on 10/19/18, Class C shares held for 10 years or more will automatically convert to Class A shares. Thereafter, Class C shares held for 10 years or more will automatically convert to Class A shares on a monthly basis. This conversion allows shareholders to take advantage of the lower expenses offered by Class A shares. Please see the prospectus supplement for more information. If you have any questions, please contact your financial advisor or call Franklin Templeton.
Class A shares (NASDAQ: FKINX) were renamed Class A1 and closed to new investors. Existing Class A1 shareholders may continue to add money to their accounts. A new Class A share (NASDAQ: FKIQX) launched with a different expense structure, in which new shareholders can invest. The fund also changed certain sales charges and commissions paid to dealers on Class A and A1 shares. Please see the prospectus supplement for more information.
