NAME OF REGISTRANT:

Templeton Global Income Fund
File No. 811-05459

EXHIBIT ITEM No. 77(e): Legal Proceedings

As part of various investigations by a number of federal, state, and foreign
regulators and governmental entities, including the Securities and Exchange
Commission ("SEC"), relating to certain practices in the mutual fund industry,
including late trading, market timing and marketing support payments to
securities dealers who sell fund shares ("marketing support"), Franklin
Resources, Inc. and certain of its subsidiaries (collectively, the "Company"),
entered into settlements with certain of those regulators and governmental
entities. Specifically, the Company entered into settlements with the SEC, among
others, concerning market timing and marketing support.

On June 23, 2006, the SEC approved the proposed plan of distribution for the
marketing support settlement, and disbursement of the settlement monies to the
designated funds, in accordance with the terms and conditions of that settlement
and plan, was completed in September 2006. The Fund did not participate in that
Settlement.

The plan of distribution for the market timing settlement is currently under
review by the SEC staff. After publication of notice of the plan and a 30-day
comment period, the proposed plan of distribution will be submitted to the SEC
for approval. Following the SEC's approval of the plan of distribution, with
modifications as appropriate, distribution of the settlement monies will begin
in accordance with the terms and conditions of the settlement and plan.

In addition, the Company, as well as most of the mutual funds within Franklin
Templeton Investments and certain current or former officers, Company directors,
fund directors, and employees, have been named in private lawsuits (styled as
shareholder class actions, or as derivative actions on behalf of either the
named funds or Franklin Resources, Inc.). The lawsuits relate to the industry
practices referenced above, as well as to allegedly excessive commissions and
advisory and distribution fees.

The Company and fund management believe that the claims made in each of the
private lawsuits referenced above are without merit and intend to defend against
them vigorously. The Company cannot predict with certainty the eventual outcome
of these lawsuits, nor whether they will have a material negative impact on the
Company. If it is determined that the Company bears responsibility for any
unlawful or inappropriate conduct that caused losses to the Fund, it is
committed to making the Fund or its shareholders whole, as appropriate.
