Source: Franklin Templeton Investments (FTI), as of 30 September 2014 unless otherwise noted, based on latest available data. Total combined Assets Under Management (Total AUM) combines the U.S. and non-U.S. AUM of the investment
management subsidiaries of the parent company, Franklin Resources, Inc. (FRI) [NYSE: BEN], a global investment organisation operating as FTI. Total and platform AUM includes discretionary and advisory accounts, including pooled investment
vehicles, separate accounts and other vehicles, as well as some accounts that may not be eligible for inclusion in composites as defined by the firms policies. Total and platform AUM may also include advisory accounts with or without trading authority.
In addition, assets for which certain FTI advisers provide limited asset allocation advisory services, and assets that are not allocated to FTI products are not included in the AUM figures shown.
Franklin Templeton Solutions (FT Solutions) invests in various investment platforms advised by a number of investment advisory entities within FTI. Platform AUM reported for FT Solutions therefore includes certain AUM separately reported under each
utilised investment platform. Total AUM also includes assets managed by certain FTI advisers that do not form part of the selected investment platforms shown. As a result, the combined platform AUMs may not equal Total AUM and may be calculated
and reported separately for regulatory or other purposes under each investment adviser.
Each local asset manager may be considered as an entity affiliated with or associated to FTI by virtue of being a direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of FRI, an entity or joint venture in which FRI owns a partial interest, which may be a minority
interest, or a third party asset management company to which investment advisory services have been delegated by an FTI adviser.
As at 30 June 2014, Mutual Series, Franklin Templeton Local Asset Management and Franklin Templeton Real Asset Advisors were renamed Franklin Mutual Series, Franklin Local Asset Management and Franklin Real Asset
Advisors, respectively. Please refer to the Important Disclosures slide for additional information.

Templeton Global Total Return Fund

Fund Description

Seeks to:

Maximise, consistent with prudent investment management, total investment return consisting
of a combination of interest income, capital appreciation and currency gains

Capitalise on the large, expanding opportunity set in global bonds


Capture potential alpha opportunities in global fixed income and currencies
Achieve solid, long-term, risk-adjusted returns in diverse market conditions

All investments involve risks, including possible loss of principal. Currency rates may fluctuate significantly over short periods of time, and can reduce
returns. Derivatives, including currency management strategies, involve costs and can create economic leverage in the portfolio which may result in
significant volatility and cause the fund to participate in losses (as well as enable gains) on an amount that exceeds the funds initial investment. The fund
may not achieve the anticipated benefits, and may realise losses when a counterparty fails to perform as promised. Foreign securities involve special risks,
including currency fluctuations and economic and political uncertainties. 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. Investments in lower-rated bonds include higher risk of default
and loss of principal. Changes in interest rates will affect the value of the funds portfolio and its share price and yield. Bond prices generally move in the
opposite direction of interest rates. As the prices of bonds in the fund adjust to a rise in interest rates, the funds share price may decline. The fund is nondiversified, which involves the risk of greater price fluctuation than a more diversified portfolio. Changes in the financial strength of a bond issuer or in
a bonds credit rating may affect its value. These and other risk considerations are discussed in the funds prospectus.

Fund Overview

Investment Objectives1

Investment Focus

Limit below-investment grade securities exposure
May include allocations to both developed and emerging markets
Potential Sources of Value Added

Credit

1. There is no assurance that the strategy will achieve its investment objectives. As stated above, the strategy is managed in a benchmark unconstrained manner.

Templeton Global Total Return Fund

Why Consider This Fund?

Global financial markets continued to be more broadly influenced by the pickup in growth in the United States and by economic stabilization in

China, in our assessment, rather than escalating geopolitical tensions.

During the third quarter, the funds negative absolute performance was primarily attributable to currency positions followed by overall credit
exposures. Interest-rate strategies contributed to absolute return.
The funds relative performance benefited from currency positions, while overall credit exposures and interest-rate strategies had a neutral effect.

The information is not a complete analysis of every aspect of any market, country, industry, security or portfolio. Statements of fact are from sources considered to be reliable, but no representation or warranty is made as to their completeness or
accuracy. Because market and economic conditions are subject to rapid change, opinions provided are valid only as of the date indicated. The views expressed may not be relied upon as investment advice and are not share class specific. An
investment in the Fund entails risks, which are described in the Funds prospectus and where available, in the relevant Key Investor Information Document. Special risks may be associated with a Funds investment in certain types of securities, asset
classes, sectors, markets, currencies or countries and in the Funds possible use of derivatives. These risks are more fully described in the Funds prospectus and should be read closely before investing.

All performance data shown is in the Fund currency stated and net of management fees. Sales charges and other commissions, taxes and other relevant costs paid by the investor are not included in the calculations.
Annualized rolling periods are plotted on a monthly or quarterly basis as indicated. The leading diagonal line links points of return for the index (lower axis). For every point of return along this line there is a corresponding return for the fund represented by
the blue square (left axis). Any point above the line represents outperformance relative to the index for that period. Any point below the line represents underperformance relative to the index for that period.
The value of shares in the Fund and income received from it can go down as well as up, and investors may not get back the full amount invested. Past performance does not guarantee future results. Current performance may differ from figures
shown. Currency fluctuations may affect the value of overseas investments. When investing in a fund denominated in a foreign currency, performance may also be affected by currency fluctuations. Please visit franklintempleton.lu for current
performance.
Performance data may represent blended share class performance, e.g., hybrid created from an A(dis) share class which was converted to A(acc).
The fund offers other share classes subject to different fees and expenses, which will affect their performance. Please see the prospectus for details.

Hypothetical Situation and Country Analysis

If economic activity in Mexico slowed down, that


could eventually force the central bank to cut
interest rates and the Mexican peso to depreciate.

We would see a potential opportunity if Korean


sovereign credit appeared to be priced at
distressed levels while our analysis did not reveal
any solvency issues.

If Australia were to tighten their monetary policy,


we could expect the Australian economy to
recover at a faster pace and the currency to
strengthen.

Proposed Course of Action

Take advantage of attractive interest rates in

Portfolio ConstructionGlobal Position Sizing

Conceptually, the portfolio is continually re-evaluated starting from


a clean slate all-cash portfolio

Position sizes are based on fundamental attractiveness, legal


diversification requirements under the UCITS framework, valuation and
potential expected return weighted against risk and volatility. As you can
see in the illustration on this slide:

Max
(10%+)
Up to about 5 positions

StandardMost positions may be 1% to 5% in size to maximise


diversification
CoreHigher-conviction positions may be scaled up to 5% or more
MaxHighest-conviction view may be scaled up to 10% or more.
Position size will rarely exceed 15%. Typically no more than
a handful of positions reach this level

Core (5%+)
Around 5 to 10 positions

Individual position sizes may be adjusted up or down based on


correlations with other positions and/or portfolio level risk objectives

Standard (15%)
Majority of positions

Note: Duration, currency and sovereign credit views are counted separately in position sizing.
The portfolio composition, characteristics and the number of exposures held by the fund will vary due to a variety of factors, such as, but not limited to, market conditions, asset size, interest rates, currency fluctuations, economic instability and
political developments.

Case Study: Ireland

Investing in Ireland when others feared the worst was a contrarian strategy that required us to have a steady hand.

IRELAND
Third Quarter 2011

Country Analysis

In the second half of 2011, markets around the world began to panic in response to
fears of an Armageddon scenario in Europe.

We believed Irish government bonds were being sold indiscriminately and felt Ireland
did not face the crisis level of risk implied by its borrowing costs at the time.

Summary of Investment Objective


The Fund aims to maximise total investment return consisting of a combination of
interest income, capital appreciation, and currency gains by investing principally in a
portfolio of fixed and/or floating rate debt securities and debt obligations issued by
government and government-related issuers or corporate entities worldwide. The fixed
and/or floating-rate debt securities and debt obligations in which the Fund may invest
include investment grade and non-investment grade securities. On an ancillary basis,
the Fund may gain exposure to debt market indexes by investing in index-based
financial derivatives and credit default swaps.

Information is historical and may not reflect current or future portfolio characteristics. All portfolio holdings are subject to change.
Yield figures quoted should not be used as an indication of the income that has or will be received. Yield figures are based on the portfolio's underlying holdings and do not represent a payout of the portfolio.
Ratings shown are assigned by one or more Nationally Recognized Statistical Rating Organizations ('NRSRO'), such as Standard & Poor's, Moody's and Fitch. The ratings are an indication of an issuer's creditworthiness and typically range from AAA or
Aaa (highest) to D (lowest). When ratings from all three agencies are available, the middle rating is used; when two are available, the lowest rating is used; and when only one is available, that rating is used. Foreign government bonds without a specific
rating are assigned the country rating provided by an NRSRO, if available. If listed, the NR category consists of rateable securities that have not been rated by an NRSRO; the N/A category consists of nonrateable securities (e.g., equities). Cash and
equivalents (defined as bonds with stated maturities, or that can be redeemed at intervals, of seven days or less) as well as derivatives are excluded from this breakdown. As a result, the chart does not reflect the fund's total net assets.

Average Duration: Also known as 'effective' or 'Macaulay' duration it is a measure of the sensitivity of the price (the value of principal) of a fixed-income investment to a change in
interest rates. Duration is expressed as a number of years. It's an indication of an issue's coupon relative to its maturity. Rising interest rates mean falling bond prices; declining interest
rates mean rising bond prices. The bigger the duration number, the greater the interest-rate risk; (or reward for bond prices). The weighted average duration of a fund reflects the
effective duration of the underlying issues, based on the size of each holding. This value differs with 'Modified Duration' which is modified for the market (dirty) price of an issue.
Current Yield: In general, yield is the annual rate of return for any investment and is expressed as a percentage. With bonds, yield is the effective rate of interest paid on a bond,
calculated by the coupon rate divided by the bond's market price. Bonds are typically issued with fixed coupon payments (regular cash payments of a fixed amount). Bonds are typically
valued in terms of the their yield - what dollar amount as coupon payments is received as compared to the bond's current market price. For a bond fund the current yield may be the
disclosed yield paid out to investors.
Yield to Maturity: Yield to Maturity ('YTM') also known as the 'Gross Redemption Yield' or 'Redemption Yield'. The rate of return anticipated on a bond if it is held until the maturity date.
YTM is considered a long-term bond yield expressed as an annual rate. The calculation of YTM takes into account the current market price, par value, coupon interest rate and time to
maturity. It is also assumed that all coupons are reinvested at the same rate.
Yield to Worst: The yield to maturity if the worst possible bond repayment takes place. If market yields are higher than the coupon, the yield to worst would assume no prepayment. If
market yields are below the coupon, the yield to worst would assume prepayment. In other words, yield to worst assumes that market yields are unchanged. Normally this value is not
aggregated since it varies but if a weighted average value is used for a Fund then the figure will reflect the values of the underlying issues, based on the size of each holding.

The information is historical and may not reflect current or future portfolio characteristics.
1. Performance attribution may change depending on factors such as market and economic conditions.
2. Currencies can be overstated because they can be used to hedge out certain market risks, such as interest rate risk, due to the negative correlation between the exchange rate and the factor that the team is attempting to hedge.
A particular factor might also affect positions that are attributed to one or both of the other categories. Therefore, decomposing the attribution into these three categories, without regard to hedging, could lead currencies to be overstated.
