Item 8.01	Other Events.
	The terms of the outstanding Legg Mason, Inc. Equity Units provide for a final period from June 23, 2011 to June 27, 2011 to remarket the 5.6% Senior Notes due June 30, 2021 (the “Notes”) which are part of the Equity Units.  Legg Mason plans to engage in a remarketing of the Notes during that period, and expects to purchase all of the outstanding Notes subject to that remarketing.  As a result, Legg Mason expects that the $103 million in principal amount of outstanding Notes will be retired on June 30, 2011, the date on which holders of Equity Units will purchase approximately 1.8 million shares of Legg Mason common stock for cash (the proceeds of the remarketed debt) under the terms of the purchase contracts that are part of the Equity Units.  If any Equity Unit holders elect to withhold their Notes from the remarketing (and to use other cash to satisfy their obligations under the purchase contracts), those Notes will remain outstanding.
