General Information (as at December 31, 2008)

Unaudited Semi-Annual Report www.franklintempleton.lu4

Market conditions have been extremely difficult over the past six months. The performance of most asset classes was adverselyaffected by unprecedented problems in the financials sector that initially became visible in mid-2007.

Through much of the period under review, banks exposed to the rapid decline in property markets in the U.S. and parts ofEurope faced mounting losses and increasing funding problems. The crisis in the financials sector reached a climax in mid-September with the collapse of Lehman Brothers, which led other investment banks such as Merrill Lynch to seek mergers withstronger, deposit-taking banks or capital injections from a variety of sources. A number of financial institutions on both sidesof the Atlantic had to be saved through state intervention, leading to large-scale nationalization and a wave of forced mergers.

Tightening credit conditions forced consumers and companies alike to deleverage, leading to falling demand and provokingrecession across the developed world. Countries such as Hungary and Ukraine faced severe difficulties as investor risk aversionincreased, while Iceland faced a sharp contraction in its economy following the overexpansion of the country’s main banks andan equally sharp depreciation in the value of its currency.

For equity investors, style and geographic diversification proved to be less relevant than in the past, with markets in Europe,the U.S. and Japan all falling pretty uniformly (allowing for currency variations). Although large-cap stocks showed some slightoutperformance toward the end of the period under review, large-cap and small-cap stocks alike produced negative returns.Nor was there much difference in the returns produced by ‘growth’-style investing versus ‘value’-style peers.

The price of oil and other commodities peaked in July, but subsequently declined in the face of a slump in demand, leading toincreased risk of deflation in the developed world. Important commodity producers such as Russia and Brazil initially resistedthe severe downturn in the western world and in countries reliant on food and energy imports. However, as the half-year drewto a close, commodity-reliant countries like Russia were feeling the full effect of diminished world growth prospects.

Despite repeated intervention by public authorities, the banks’ difficulty in sourcing funding on the interbank market in turnhad a negative impact on the availability of credit to the wider economy around the developed world. On the credit markets,better-quality credits, which had previously fared relatively well, were seriously hurt by the fallout from Lehman’s collapse inSeptember. Spreads in the corporate bond market widened considerably, whether for investment-grade or non-investment-gradebonds.

Given the sharp rise in risk aversion seen in the six months under review, it is not surprising that long-dated government bondssignificantly outperformed equities. By December, the liquidity and credit problems affecting most other asset classes hadpushed U.S. Treasury yields to multi-decade lows.

Low yields in the U.S. put an end to a revival in the dollar’s value against the euro as the period wore on, while the UKsterling fell heavily against both the euro and the dollar because investors grew steadily more alarmed by the UK’s dependenceon the financial sector and high household indebtedness. The best-performing currency has been the Japanese yen, with risingrisk aversion prompting a progressive unwinding of carry trades between low-yielding currencies (such as the yen) and onespromising higher yields. Alas, the yen’s rise has driven Japan’s export-driven economy even deeper into recession.

As we moved into the second half of the financial year, economic data continued to be dire. Home prices in developedcountries still have not stabilized, consumer and corporate confidence is low, and question marks remain over the future ofsome high-profile names in sectors such as financial services and the auto industry.

In November, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) forecast that global growth would slow to 2.2% in 2009, down fromabout 3.7% in 2008. The U.S. economy, the IMF predicts, will contract by 0.7% and the eurozone by 0.5%. Forecasts byother parties have been even more somber, with the European central bank predicting that the eurozone economy may contractby up to one percentage point in 2009.

Toward the end of the reporting period, there were some signs that the panic of recent months was starting to abate. Stockvolatility indexes were off their October peaks, and interbank markets felt some relief.

The first six months of 2009 are expected to be especially difficult, and financial markets will likely have to withstand a largeincrease in corporate default rates. However, repeated fiscal and monetary stimuli may help stabilize the situation during thecourse of the year. Should official stimulus be seen to work, the attractiveness of high-grade corporate bonds may become moreevident, at least in the near and intermediate term.

Despite deleveraging and continued economic difficulties, improvement in the credit markets may spark renewed interest inequities, which are already trading at low book values on a historical basis and pricing in steep declines in profits. But in sucha scenario, the recent bull market in long-dated government bonds may well be brought into question, especially in light oflarge increases in bond issuance in the industrialized world.

Although conditions on financial markets may be challenging, investors should remember that Franklin Templeton Investmentshas navigated through periods of high market volatility in the past, such as that following the stock market crash of 1987.Throughout, we have remained committed to our long-term perspective and investment philosophy. We view recent volatility asa long-term opportunity. Although conditions remain challenging, our experience gives us ample reason to be optimistic aboutmarket stabilization and recovery.

Note 2 ç Significant accounting policies(a) General

The financial statements are prepared in accordance with the regulations of the Grand-Duchy of Luxembourg relating to investment funds.

(b) Investment in securities

Securities which are listed on a stock exchange or traded on any other organised market are valued at the last available price on such exchangeor market which is normally the principal market for each security, and those securities dealt in on an over-the-counter market are valued in amanner as near as possible to that for quoted securities.

Securities not listed on any stock exchange nor traded on any organised market are valued at the last available price, or if such price is notrepresentative of their fair value, they are valued prudently and in good faith on the basis of their reasonably foreseeable sales prices.

The Fund has procedures to determine the fair value of individual securities and other assets for which market prices are not readily availableor which may not be reliably priced. In such circumstances, the price of such investment shall be adjusted in accordance with the proceduresadopted, as determined by or under the direction of the Board of Directors.

During the accounting period under review, gains and losses on investment securities sold were computed on the average cost basis for allFunds with the exception of the Franklin High Yield Fund, the Franklin Income Fund and the Franklin U.S. Government Fund which werecomputed on the first-in, first-out basis.

Note 2 ç Significant accounting policies (continued)(b) Investment in securities (continued)

During the accounting period under review, discounts and premiums were amortised to income over the period to maturity, or date sold, ifearlier.

For mortgage-backed and other similar holdings with scheduled debt paydowns, the Funds record estimates, based in its historical experience,for anticipated paydowns. Such estimates are recorded as a reduction or increase to the related holdings as disclosed on the Schedule ofInvestments and are included in the related unrealised appreciation/depreciation on investments shown in the ‘‘Statement of Operations andChanges in Net Assets’’.

(c) Foreign exchange transactions

Transactions expressed in currencies other than each Fund’s currency are translated into each Fund’s currency at the exchange rates applicableon the transaction dates.

Assets and liabilities designated in currencies other than each Fund’s currency are translated into each Fund’s currency at the appropriateexchange rates ruling at the period-end. Gains and losses on foreign exchange transactions are recognised in the ‘‘Statement of Operations andChanges in Net Assets’’ in determining the results for the accounting period.

(d) Forward foreign exchange contracts

Forward foreign exchange contracts are valued at the forward rate applicable at the ‘‘Statement of Net Assets’’ date for the remaining period,until maturity. Gains or losses resulting from forward exchange contracts are recognised in the ‘‘Statement of Operations and Changes in NetAssets’’.

(e) Income

Dividends are credited to income on their ex-dividend date.

Interest income is accrued on a daily basis.

(f) Formation expenses

Formation expenses associated with the launch of new Funds are expensed as incurred.

(g) Futures contracts

The Company may enter into financial futures contracts to gain exposure to market changes. A financial futures contract is an agreementbetween two parties to buy or sell a security for a set price on a future date. Required initial margin deposits of cash or securities aremaintained by a broker in a segregated account. Subsequent payments, known as variation margin, are made or received by the Companydepending on the fluctuations in the value of the underlying securities. Such variation margin is accounted for as unrealised gains or losses untilthe contract is closed, at which time the gains or losses are reclassified to realised gains or losses. Realised and unrealised gains and losses areincluded in the ‘‘Statement of Operations and Changes in Net Assets’’.

(h) Option contracts

Options are contracts entitling the holder to purchase or sell a specified number of shares or units of a particular security at a specified price atany time until the contract-stated expiration date. Options purchased are recorded as investments; options written (sold) are recorded asliabilities. When the exercise of an option results in a cash settlement, the difference between the premium (original option value) and thesettlement proceeds is accounted for as a realised gain or loss. When securities are acquired or delivered upon exercise of an option, theacquisition cost or sale proceeds are adjusted by the amount of the premium. When an option is closed, the difference between the premiumand the cost to close the position is accounted for as a realised gain or loss. When an option expires, the premium is accounted for as a realisedgain or loss for options written or as a realised loss for options purchased. The risks include price movements in the underlying securities, thepossibility there may be an illiquid options market, or the inability of the counterparties to fulfill their obligations under the contract.

(i) Interest Rate Swaps

Interest Rate Swap contracts are used to hedge the risk of changes in interest rates and are agreements between two parties to exchange cashflows based on a notional principal amount. The net interest received or paid on interest rate swap agreements is accrued daily as interestincome/expense. Interest rate swaps are marked to market daily based upon quotations from the market makers and the change, if any, isrecorded as an unrealized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. When the swap contract is terminated early, the fund records a realizedgain or loss equal to the difference between the current net present value and the executed net present value. Any outstanding interest accrualwill be recorded as either a net receivable or net payable.

The risks of interest rate swaps include changes in market conditions and the possible inability of the counterparty to fulfill its obligationsunder the agreement.

Note 2 ç Significant accounting policies (continued)(j) Credit Default Swaps

A Credit Default Swap is a credit derivative transaction in which two parties enter into an agreement, whereby one party pays the other a fixedperiodic payment for the specified life of the agreement. The other party makes no payments unless a credit event, relating to a predeterminedreference asset, occurs. If such an event occurs, the party will then make a payment to the first party, and the swap will terminate. The value ofthe underlying securities shall be taken into account for the calculation of the investment and borrowing powers applicable to individual users.

Credit default swaps are marked to market daily based upon quotations from the market makers and the change in value, if any, is recorded asan unrealized gain or loss in the Statement of Operations. Any payment received or paid to initiate a contract is recorded as a liability or assetin the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. When the swap contract is terminated early, the Fund records a realized gain or loss for anypayments received or paid.

The risks of credit default swaps include unfavorable changes in interest rates, an illiquid secondary market and the possible inability of thecounterparty to fulfill its obligations under the agreement, which may be in excess of the amount reflected in the Statement of Assets andLiabilities.

(k) Mortgage Dollar Rolls

In a mortgage dollar roll, a Fund sells mortgage-backed securities for delivery in the current month and simultaneously contracts to repurchasesubstantially similar (name, type, coupon, and maturity) securities on a specified future date. During the period between the sale andrepurchase, the Fund foregoes principal and interest paid on the mortgage-backed securities. The Fund is compensated by the difference betweenthe current sales price and the lower forward price for the future purchase, as well as by the interest earned on the cash proceeds of the initialsale.

The difference between the current sales price and the lower forward price is treated as realized gain.

(l) Securities Lending

The Company may lend selected sub-funds’ portfolio securities to specialised banks, credit institutions and other financial institutions of highstanding, or through recognised clearing institutions such as Clearstream or Euroclear. The lending of securities will be made for periods notexceeding 30 calendar days provided, however, that this limit is not applicable where the Company has the right to terminate the lendingcontract at any time and obtain restitution of the securities lent. Loans will be secured continuously by collateral which must at least equal thevalue of the global valuation of the securities lent. Lending transactions may not be carried out on more than 50% of the aggregate marketvalue of the securities of each sub-fund’s portfolio except where the Company has the right to terminate the lending contract at any time andobtain restitution of the securities lent. The dividends earned on the collateral are included in the ‘‘Statement of Operations and Changes in NetAssets’’.
