II. The table listing the Fund’s classes on the cover of the prospectus is replaced with the following:

Class A	Class T	Class C	Class R	Advisor Class

III. The following replaces the “Fund Summary – Fees and Expenses of the Fund” section of the prospectus beginning on page 2:

Fees and Expenses of the Fund

These tables describe the fees and expenses that you may pay if you buy and hold shares of the Fund. You may qualify for sales charge discounts in Class A if you and your family invest, or agree to invest in the future, at least $50,000 in Franklin Templeton funds. You may qualify for sales charge discounts in Class T if you invest at least $250,000 in the Fund at one time. More information about these and other discounts is available from your financial professional and under “Your Account” on page 28 in the Fund’s Prospectus and under “Buying and Selling Shares” on page 46 of the Fund’s Statement of Additional Information. In addition, more information about sales charge discounts and waivers for purchases of shares through specific intermediaries is set forth in Appendix A - Intermediary Sales Charge Discounts and Waivers to the Fund’s prospectus.

Please note that the tables and examples below do not reflect any transaction fees that may be charged by financial intermediaries, or commissions that a shareholder may be required to pay directly to its financial intermediary when buying or selling Advisor Class shares.

2. Total annual Fund operating expenses differ from the ratio of expenses to average net assets shown in the Financial Highlights, which reflect operating expenses of the Fund and do not include acquired fund fees and expenses.

3. Management has contractually agreed in advance to reduce (waive) its fees as a result of the Fund’s investment in a Franklin Templeton money fund (acquired fund) for at least the next 12-month period. Contractual fee waiver and/or expense reimbursement agreements may not be terminated during the time period set forth above.

Example

This Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The Example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods indicated and then redeem all of your shares at the end of the period. The Example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund’s operating expenses remain the same. The Example reflects adjustments made to the Fund’s operating expenses due to the fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements by management for the 1 Year numbers only. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:

	1 Year	3 Years	5 Years	10 Years
Class A	$764	$1,163	$1,585	$2,759
Class T	$446	$858	$1,295	$2,509
Class C	$376	$849	$1,449	$3,071
Class R	$226	$699	$1,199	$2,575
Advisor Class	$176	$547	$943	$2,052
If you do not sell your shares:
Class C	$276	$849	$1,449	$3,071

IV. The following replaces the “Fund Summary – Performance” section of the prospectus beginning on page 6:

Performance

The following bar chart and table provide some indication of the risks of investing in the Fund. The bar chart shows changes in the Fund's performance from year to year for Class A shares. The table shows how the Fund's average annual returns for 1 year, 5 years, 10 years or since inception, as applicable, compared with those of a broad measure of market performance. The Fund's past performance (before and after taxes) is not necessarily an indication of how the Fund will perform in the future. You can obtain updated performance information at franklintempleton.com or by calling (800) DIAL BEN/342-5236.

Sales charges are not reflected in the bar chart, and if those charges were included, returns would be less than those shown.

Class A Annual Total Returns

Best Quarter:	Q2'09	60.36%
Worst Quarter:	Q4'08	-29.81%
As of March 31, 2017, the Fund's year-to-date return was 13.22%.

Historical performance for Class T shares prior to their inception is based on the performance of Class A shares. Class T shares performance has been adjusted to reflect differences in sales charges between classes.

The after-tax returns are calculated using the historical highest individual federal marginal income tax rates and do not reflect the impact of state and local taxes. Actual after-tax returns depend on an investor's tax situation and may differ from those shown. After-tax returns are not relevant to investors who hold their Fund shares through tax-deferred arrangements, such as 401(k) plans or individual retirement accounts. After-tax returns are shown only for Class A and after-tax returns for other classes will vary.

V. In the Fund Summary section, the paragraph under “Purchase and Sale of Fund Shares” on page 9 of the prospectus is replaced with the following:

You may purchase or redeem shares of the Fund on any business day online through our website at franklintempleton.com, by mail (Franklin Templeton Investor Services, P.O. Box 33030, St. Petersburg, FL 33733-8030), or by telephone at (800) 632-2301. For Class A, T, C and R, the minimum initial purchase for most accounts is $1,000 (or $50 under an automatic investment plan). Advisor Class are only available to certain qualified investors and the minimum initial investment will vary depending on the type of qualified investor, as described under "Your Account — Choosing a Share Class — Qualified Investors— Advisor Class" in the Fund's prospectus. There is no minimum investment for subsequent purchases.

VI. The following is added to the financial highlights charts in the “Fund Details – Financial Highlights” section of the prospectus beginning on page 22:

VII. The first table of the “Your Account – Choosing a Share Class” section on page 28 is replaced with the following:

Class A	Class T	Class C	Class R	Advisor Class
Initial sales charge of 5.75% or less	Initial sales charge of 2.50% or less	No initial sales charge	No initial sales charge	See "Qualified Investors - Advisor Class" below
Deferred sales charge of 1% on purchases of $1 million or more sold within 18 months	Deferred sales charge is not applicable	Deferred sales charge of 1% on shares you sell within 12 months	Deferred sales charge is not applicable
Lower annual expenses than Class C or R due to lower distribution fees	Lower annual expenses than Class C or R due to lower distribution fees (same as Class A)	Higher annual expenses than Class A due to higher distribution fees	Higher annual expenses than Class A due to higher distribution fees (lower than Class C)

The Fund began offering Class T shares on June 12, 2017.

VIII. The “Your Account – Choosing a Share Class – Class A, C & R” section heading on page 28 is replaced with “Choosing a Share Class – Class A, T, C & R.”

IX. The following is added to the “Your Account - Choosing a Share Class” section beginning on page 28:

Sales Charges - Class T
when you invest this amount	the sales charge makes up this % of the offering price¹	which equals this % of your net investment¹
Under $250,000	2.50	2.56
$250,000 but under $500,000	2.00	2.04
$500,000 but under $1 million	1.50	1.52
$1 million or more	1.00	1.01

1. The dollar amount of the sales charge is the difference between the offering price of the shares purchased (which factors in the applicable sales charge in this table) and the net asset value of those shares. Since the offering price is calculated to two decimal places using standard rounding criteria, the number of shares purchased and the dollar amount of the sales charge as a percentage of the offering price and of your net investment may be higher or lower depending on whether there was a downward or upward rounding.

Distribution and Service (12b-1) Fees

Class T has a distribution plan, sometimes known as a Rule 12b-1 plan, which allows the Fund to pay distribution fees of up to 0.25% per year to those who sell and distribute Class T shares and provide other services to shareholders. Because these fees are paid out of Class T’s assets on an ongoing basis, over time these fees will increase the cost of your investment and may cost you more than paying other types of sales charges.

We calculate the amount of these fees over a 12-month period that may differ from the Fund's fiscal year. Therefore, the amount shown from time to time in the Fund's fee table (which is based upon the Fund's fiscal year) may differ from the amount set forth in the Rule 12b-1 plan due to timing differences.

X. The first sentence of the first paragraph of the “Your Account – Choosing a Share Class – Reinstatement Privilege” section on page 34 is replaced with the following:

If you sell any class of shares of a Franklin Templeton Investments fund (except Class T), you may reinvest all or a portion of the proceeds from that sale within 90 days within the same share class without an initial sales charge.

XI. The “Your Account – Buying Shares – Minimum Investments – Class A, C & R” section heading on page 37 is replaced with “Minimum Investments – Class A, T, C & R.”

XII. The first heading and paragraph of the “Your Account – Exchanging Shares – Exchange Privilege” section on page 45 is replaced with the following:

Class A, T, C & R

You can exchange shares between most Franklin Templeton funds within the same class,* generally without paying any additional sales charges. If you exchange shares from a money fund and those shares were not charged a sales charge previously, however, a sales charge may apply. Further, any exchange between Franklin Templeton funds within Class T are subject to the Class T sales charges described under "Your Account — Choosing a Share Class — Class A, T, C & R — Sales Charges - Class T."

XIII. The “Your Account – Account Policies – Calculating Share Price – Class A & C” section heading on page 49 is replaced with “Class A, T & C.”

XIV. The “Your Account – Account Policies – Dealer Compensation – Class A, C & R” section heading on page 55 is replaced with “Class A, T, C & R” and the table on page 56 is replaced with the following:

	Class A	Class T	Class C	Class R
Commission (%)	--	--	1.00¹	--
Investment under $50,000	5.00	2.50	--	--
$50,000 but under $100,000	3.75	2.50	--	--

$500,000 but under $1 million	1.60	1.50	--	--
$1 million or more	up to 1.00	1.00	--	--
12b-1 fee to dealer	0.25^2,3	0.25	1.00⁴	0.50

Please keep this supplement with your prospectus for future reference.

3. Total annual Fund operating expenses differ from the ratio of expenses to average net assets shown in the Financial Highlights, which reflect operating expenses of the Fund and do not include acquired fund fees and expenses.

4. The transfer agent has contractually agreed to cap transfer agency fees for Class R6 shares of the Fund so that transfer agency fees for that Class do not exceed 0.01% for the next 12-month period. In addition, the investment manager has contractually agreed in advance to reduce (waive) its fee as a result of the Fund’s investment in a Franklin Templeton money fund (acquired fund) for the next 12-month period. Contractual fee waiver and/or expense reimbursement agreements may not be changed or terminated during the time period set forth above.

Item 29. Persons Controlled by or Under Common Control with Registrant

None

Item 30. Indemnification

The Amended and Restated Agreement and Declaration of Trust (the "Declaration") provides that any person who is or was a Trustee, officer, employee or other agent, including the underwriter, of such Trust shall be liable to the Trust and its shareholders only for (1) any act or omission that constitutes a bad faith violation of the implied contractual covenant of good faith and fair dealing, or (2) the person's own willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of the duties involved in the conduct of such person (such conduct referred to herein as Disqualifying Conduct) and for nothing else. Except in these instances and to the fullest extent that limitations of liability of agents are permitted by the Delaware Statutory Trust Act (the "Delaware Act"), these Agents (as defined in the Declaration) shall not be responsible or liable for any act or omission of any other Agent of the Trust or any investment adviser or principal underwriter. Moreover, except and to the extent provided in these instances, none of these Agents, when acting in their respective capacity as such, shall be personally liable to any other person, other than such Trust or its shareholders, for any act, omission or obligation of the Trust or any trustee thereof.

The Trust shall indemnify, out of its property, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law, any of the persons who was or is a party, or is threatened to be made a party to any Proceeding (as defined in the Declaration) because the person is or was an Agent of such Trust. These persons shall be indemnified against any Expenses (as defined in the Declaration), judgments, fines, settlements and other amounts actually and reasonably incurred in connection with the Proceeding if the person acted in good faith or, in the case of a criminal proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe that the conduct was unlawful. The termination of any Proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction or plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent shall not in itself create a presumption that the person did not act in good faith or that the person had reasonable cause to believe that the person's conduct was unlawful. There shall nonetheless be no indemnification for a person's own Disqualifying Conduct.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, may be permitted to Trustees, officers and controlling persons of the Trust pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Trust has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Trust of expenses incurred or paid by a Trustee, officer or controlling person of the Trust in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such Trustee, officer or controlling person in connection with securities being registered, the Trust may be required, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, to submit to a court or appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
