To the Board of Trustees and Shareholders of Franklin Multi-Income Trust: In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements of Franklin Multi Income Trust (the "Trust") for the year ended March 31, 2005, we considered its internal control, including control activities for safeguarding securities, in order to determine our auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing our opinion on the financial statements and to comply with the requirements of Form N-SAR, not to provide assurance on internal control. The management of the Trust is responsible for establishing and maintaining internal control. In fulfilling this responsibility, estimates and judgments by management are required to assess the expected benefits and related costs of controls. Generally, controls that are relevant to an audit pertain to the entity's objective of preparing financial statements for external purposes that are fairly presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. Those controls include the safeguarding of assets against unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition. Because of inherent limitations in internal control, errors or fraud may occur and not be detected. Also, projection of any evaluation of internal control to future periods is subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or that the effectiveness of their design and operation may deteriorate. Our consideration of internal control would not necessarily disclose all matters in internal control that might be material weaknesses under standards established by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). A material weakness, for purposes of this report, is a condition in which the design or operation of one or more of the internal control components does not reduce to a relatively low level the risk that misstatements caused by error or fraud in amounts that would be material in relation to the financial statements being audited may occur and not be detected within a timely period by employees in the normal course of performing their assigned functions. However, we noted no matters involving internal control and its operation, including controls for safeguarding securities, that we consider to be material weaknesses as defined above as of March 31, 2005. This report is intended solely for the information and use of the Board of Trustees, management and the Securities and Exchange Commission and is not intended to be and should not be used by anyone other than these specified parties. PricewaterhouseCoopers, LLP May 10, 2005 EX-99.77E LEGAL 4 legalltr.txt LEGAL ATTACHMENT REGULATORY MATTERS Investigations and settlements As part of various investigations by a number of federal, state, and foreign regulators and governmental entities, including the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), the California Attorney General's Office ("CAGO"), and the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. ("NASD"), 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, Franklin Resources, Inc. and certain of its subsidiaries (as used in this section, together, the "Company"), as well as certain current or former executives and employees of the Company, provided documents and information in response to subpoenas and/or requests for documents, information and/or testimony. Beginning in August 2004, the Company entered into settlements with certain of the regulators and a governmental entity investigating the mutual fund industry practices noted above. The Company believes that settlement of each of the matters is in the best interest of the Company and shareholders of the Franklin, Templeton, and Mutual Series mutual funds (the "funds"). Two of the settlement agreements, those with the SEC and the CAGO concerning marketing support payments, provide that the distribution of settlement monies are to be made to the relevant funds, not to individual shareholders. The CAGO has approved the distribution plan pertaining to the distribution of the monies owed under the CAGO settlement agreement and, in accordance with the terms and conditions of that settlement, the monies were disbursed to the participating funds and are recorded as other income in the current period. The SEC has not yet approved the distribution plan pertaining to the SEC settlement. When approved, disbursements of settlement monies under the SEC's settlement will be made promptly in accordance with the terms and conditions of that order. Other Legal Proceedings On April 12, 2005, the Attorney General of West Virginia filed a complaint in the Circuit Court of Marshall County, West Virginia against a number of companies engaged in the mutual fund industry, including Franklin Resources, Inc. and its subsidiary, Franklin Advisers, Inc., and certain other parties alleging violations of the West Virginia Consumer Credit and Protection Act and seeking, among other things, civil penalties and attorneys' fees and costs. To the extent applicable to the Company, the complaint arises from activity that occurred in 2001 and duplicates, in whole or in part, the allegations asserted in the February 4, 2004 Massachusetts Administrative Complaint concerning one instance of market timing (the "Administrative Complaint") and the SEC's findings regarding market timing in its August 2, 2004 Order (the "SEC Order"), both of which matters were previously reported. The Company and other funds, and certain current and former officers, employees, and directors have been named in multiple lawsuits in different courts alleging violations of various federal securities laws and seeking, among other relief, monetary damages, restitution, removal of fund trustees, directors, advisers, administrators, and distributors, rescission of management contracts and 12b-1 plans, and/or attorneys' fees and costs. Specifically, the lawsuits claim breach of duty with respect to alleged arrangements to permit market timing and/or late trading activity, or breach of duty with respect to the valuation of the portfolio securities of certain Templeton funds managed by Franklin Resources, Inc. subsidiaries, resulting in alleged market timing activity. The majority of these lawsuits duplicate, in whole or in part, the allegations asserted in the Administrative Complaint and the SEC's findings regarding market timing in the SEC Order. The lawsuits are styled as class actions, or derivative actions on behalf of either the named funds or Franklin Resources, Inc. In addition, the Company, as well as certain current and former officers, employees, and directors, have been named in multiple lawsuits alleging violations of various securities laws and pendent state law claims relating to the disclosure of marketing support payments and/or payment of allegedly excessive commissions and/or advisory or distribution fees, and seeking, among other relief, monetary damages, restitution, rescission of advisory contracts, including recovery of all fees paid pursuant to those contracts, an accounting of all monies paid to the named advisers, declaratory relief, injunctive relief, and/or attorneys' fees and costs. These lawsuits are styled as class actions or derivative actions brought on behalf of the Fund and other funds. The Company and fund management strongly believe that the claims made in each of the lawsuits described above are without merit and intends 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. Public trust and confidence are critical to the Company's business and any material loss of investor and/or client confidence could result in a significant decline in assets under management by the Company, which would have an adverse effect on future financial results. 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. The Company is committed to taking all appropriate actions to protect the interests of its funds' shareholders. -----END PRIVACY-ENHANCED MESSAGE-----
