Foreign Equity Series Emerging Market Series Foreign Smaller Companies Series The Statement of Additional Information is amended as follows: I. THE "POLICIES AND PROCEDURES REGARDING THE RELEASE OF PORTFOLIO HOLDINGS" SECTION IS REVISED AS FOLLOWS. POLICIES AND PROCEDURES REGARDING THE RELEASE OF PORTFOLIO HOLDINGS The Fund's overall policy with respect to the release of portfolio holdings is to release such information consistent with applicable legal requirements and the fiduciary duties owed to shareholders. Subject to the limited exceptions described below, the Fund will not make available to anyone non-public information with respect to its portfolio holdings, until such time as the information is made available to all shareholders or the general public. For purposes of this policy, portfolio holdings information does not include aggregate, composite or descriptive information that does not present risks of dilution, arbitrage, market timing, insider trading or other inappropriate trading for the applicable U.S. registered fund. Information excluded from the definition of portfolio holdings information generally includes, without limitation: (1) descriptions of allocations among asset classes, regions, countries or industries/sectors; (2) aggregated data such as average or median ratios, market capitalization, credit quality or duration; (3) performance attributions by industry, sector or country; or (4) aggregated risk statistics. Such information, if made available to anyone, will be made available to any person upon request, but, because such information is generally not material to investors, it may or may not be posted on the Fund's website. In addition, other information may also be deemed to not be portfolio holdings information if, in the reasonable belief of the Fund's Chief Compliance Officer (or his/her designee), the release of such information would not present risks of dilution, arbitrage, market timing, insider trading or other inappropriate trading for the Fund. Consistent with current law, the Fund releases complete portfolio holdings information each fiscal quarter through regulatory filings with no more than a 60-day lag. In addition, a complete list of the Fund's portfolio holdings is released 30 calendar days after the end of each calendar quarter. Other portfolio holdings information, such as the Fund's top 10 holdings, may be released monthly on the Fund's website, no sooner than five days after the end of each month. Released portfolio holdings information can be viewed on franklintempleton.com or franklintempletoninstitutional.com. To the extent that this policy would require the release of portfolio holdings information regarding a particular portfolio holding for the Fund, the portfolio manager for the Fund may request that the holding be withheld from the portfolio holdings information if the holding is the subject of ongoing purchase or sale orders/programs, or if the release of such portfolio holdings information would otherwise be sensitive or inappropriate due to liquidity and other market considerations, in each case as determined by the portfolio manager in consultation with the head of Global Investment Adviser Compliance (or his/her designee). Exceptions to the portfolio holdings release policy will be made only when: (1) the Fund has a legitimate business purpose for releasing portfolio holdings information to selected third parties in advance of release to all shareholders or the general public; (2) the recipient is subject to a duty of confidentiality pursuant to a signed non-disclosure agreement; and (3) the release of such information would not otherwise violate the antifraud provisions of the federal securities laws or the Fund's fiduciary duties. The determination of whether the Fund has a legitimate business purpose for releasing portfolio holdings information in advance of release to all shareholders or the general public shall be made by the Fund's chief compliance officer or his/her designee, following a request submitted in writing. The chief compliance officer will report to the board of directors or trustees (board), as the case may be, on exceptions granted to the policy, along with an explanation of the legitimate business purpose of the U.S. registered fund that is served as a result of the exception. The eligible third parties to whom portfolio holdings information may be released in advance of general release fall into the following categories: data consolidators, including rating agencies, fund rating/ranking services and other data providers; service providers to the Fund; shareholders of a fund to whom such fund has determined to process a redemption request in-kind based upon a determination by the Fund's portfolio manager and the Fund's Chief Compliance Officer (or his/her designee) that such redemption in-kind is in the best interests of the redeeming fund and its remaining shareholders; provided, however, that the portfolio holdings information so released in advance of the actual delivery of the redemption proceeds is limited to only that information reasonably necessary to allow the shareholder to prepare for receipt of the in-kind redemption proceeds; municipal securities brokers using the Investor Tools product; and certain entities approved by the Fund's Chief Compliance Officer (or his/her designee) on a case-by-case basis, in limited circumstances, including where the release of such information is required by foreign law or regulation (in these situations, the recipient will be requested to execute a non-disclosure agreement). The specific entities to whom the Fund may provide portfolio holdings in advance of their release to the general public are: o Bloomberg, Capital Access, CDA (Thomson Financial), FactSet, Fidelity Advisors, Lipper Inc., Morningstar, Standard & Poor's, Vestek, and Fidelity Management Trust Company, all of whom may receive portfolio holdings information 15 days after the quarter end o Service providers to the Fund that receive portfolio holdings information from time to time in advance of general release in the course of performing, or to enable them to perform, services for the Fund, including: CUSTODIAN BANK: Bank of New York or JPMorgan Chase Bank; INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM: PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, Ernst & Young, LLP, or Tait, Weller & Baker LLP; OUTSIDE FUND LEGAL COUNSEL: Stradley Ronon Stevens & Young, LLP; INDEPENDENT DIRECTORS'/TRUSTEES' COUNSEL: Bleakley, Platt & Schmidt, LLP; and/or Wolf, Block, Schorr & Solis-Cohen, LLP; PROXY VOTING Services: Glass, Lewis & Co. and Institutional Shareholder Services; BROKERAGE ANALYTICAL SERVICES: Sanford Bernstein, Brown Brothers Harriman, Royal Bank of Canada Capital Markets, JP Morgan Securities Inc.; FINANCIAL PRINTERS: RR Donnelley & Sons Company or GCOM Solutions, Inc.; and CLASS B SHARE FINANCING: Lightning Asset Finance Limited. In all cases, eligible third parties are required to execute a non-disclosure agreement. Non-disclosure agreements include the following provisions: o The recipient agrees to keep confidential any portfolio holdings information received until such information either is released to the public or the release is otherwise approved by the head of Global Compliance (or his/her designee) or the Fund's Chief Compliance Officer (or his/her designee); o The recipient agrees not to trade on the non-public information received; and o The recipient agrees to refresh its representation as to confidentiality and abstention from trading upon request from Franklin Templeton Investments. In no case does the Fund receive any compensation in connection with the arrangements to release portfolio holdings information to any of the above-described recipients of the information. Lightning Asset Finance Limited (Lightning) is the company used to finance advanced commissions for the Fund's Class B shares and is a 49% owned subsidiary of Franklin Resources, Inc. Lightning receives portfolio holdings information on a weekly basis, with no time lag. Lightning may utilize such information to construct a "global hedge" to lessen its exposure to market fluctuations with respect to the fees it receives in connection with the financing of the Fund's Class B shares. The global hedge is not specific to the Fund but rather is constructed with respect to the aggregate portfolio of securities underlying all funds, including funds within Franklin Templeton Investments as well as funds in other investment company complexes for which Lightning provides Class B share financing. The global hedge can be comprised of a number of financial instruments, including futures contracts, swaps, index shares, exchange-traded funds and, in limited circumstances, individual stocks. In its confidentiality agreement with Franklin Templeton Investments, Lightning has agreed to keep confidential any portfolio holdings information it receives from the Fund and also has agreed not to purchase or sell or sell short any individual stocks held by the Fund based on such portfolio holdings information. If other funds for which Lightning provides financing have supplied Lightning with portfolio holdings information, and such holdings include individual stocks that are also included in the list of portfolio holdings supplied by the Fund, it is possible that the global hedge constructed by Lightning may include individual stock transactions based on such other funds' holdings of a particular stock, but not based on the Fund's holdings of that stock. Lightning does not seek to profit from the global hedge, does not invest in Fund shares, and has established precautionary measures so that its personnel may not use the Fund's portfolio information for the purpose of trading in Fund shares or for any other unauthorized trading. Although neither the Fund nor any Franklin Templeton entity receives compensation in connection with the provision of portfolio holdings information to Lightning, because Franklin Resources is an affiliate of Lightning, to the extent that Lightning's global hedge is successful, Franklin Resources may receive an indirect economic benefit from the global hedge and, consequently, from the release of portfolio holdings information. Several investment managers within Franklin Templeton Investments (F-T Managers) serve as investment managers to offshore funds that are registered or otherwise authorized for sale with foreign regulatory authorities. The release of portfolio holdings information for such offshore funds is excluded from the Fund's portfolio holdings release policy if such information is given to offshore banks, broker-dealers, insurance companies, registered investment managers and other financial institutions (offshore investment managers) with discretionary authority to select offshore funds on behalf of their clients. Because such offshore funds may from time to time invest in securities substantially similar to those of the Fund, there is the risk that such portfolio holdings information may be used to trade inappropriately against the Fund. To mitigate such risks, such information may only be disclosed for portfolio analytic purposes, such as risk analysis/asset allocation, and the offshore investment manager will be required to execute a non-disclosure agreement, whereby such offshore investment manager agrees to maintain such information as confidential, including limiting the dissemination of such information within its organization, and not to trade in any shares of any U.S. registered Franklin or Templeton fund, including the Fund. In addition, some F-T Managers serve as investment managers to various bank commingled trusts maintained by a Franklin Templeton Investments trust company, to various Canadian institutional pooled funds, to separate accounts, and as sub-advisers to other mutual funds not within the Franklin Templeton Investments fund complex. Such trusts, pooled funds, accounts and other funds (collectively, "other accounts") are not subject to the Fund's portfolio holdings release policy. However, in some instances the portfolio holdings of such other accounts may be similar to and, in certain cases, nearly identical to those of a Franklin Templeton mutual fund, including the Fund. In the case of bank commingled trusts and Canadian institutional pooled funds, to mitigate risks that such portfolio holdings information may be used to trade inappropriately against a mutual fund, the recipient of such portfolio holdings information will be required to execute a non-disclosure agreement similar to the one described above for offshore funds. With respect to the other mutual funds not within the Franklin Templeton Investments fund complex, the sponsors of such funds may disclose the portfolio holdings of such funds at different times than the Fund discloses its portfolios holdings. The Fund's portfolio holdings release policy and all subsequent amendments have been reviewed and approved by the Fund's board, and any other material amendments shall also be reviewed and approved by the board. The investment manager's compliance staff conducts periodic reviews of compliance with the policy and provides at least annually a report to the board regarding the operation of the policy and any material changes recommended as a result of such review. The investment manager's compliance staff also will report to the board on exceptions granted to the policy, along with an explanation of the legitimate business purpose of the Fund that is served as a result of the exception. II. EFFECTIVE JANUARY 16, 2007, FOR ALL FUNDS THAT OFFER CLASS A SHARES, THE "BUYING AND SELLING SHARES - INITIAL SALES CHARGES - LETTER OF INTENT (LOI)" SECTION IS REVISED AS FOLLOWS: LETTER OF INTENT (LOI). You may buy Class A shares at a reduced sales charge by completing the LOI section of your account application. An LOI is a commitment by you to invest a specified dollar amount during a 13-month period. The amount you agree to invest determines the sales charge you pay. By completing the LOI section of the application, you acknowledge and agree to the following: o You authorize Distributors to reserve approximately 5% of your total intended purchase in Class A shares registered in your name until you fulfill your LOI. Your periodic statements will include the reserved shares in the total shares you own, and we will pay or reinvest dividend and capital gain distributions on the reserved shares according to the distribution option you have chosen. o You give Distributors a security interest in the reserved shares and appoint Distributors as attorney-in-fact. o Distributors may sell any or all of the reserved shares to cover any additional sales charge if you do not fulfill the terms of the LOI. o Although you may exchange your shares, you may not sell reserved shares until you complete the LOI or pay the higher sales charge. After you file your LOI with the Fund, you may buy Class A shares at the sales charge applicable to the amount specified in your LOI. Sales charge reductions based on purchases in more than one Franklin Templeton fund will be effective only after notification to Distributors that the investment qualifies for a discount. If you file your LOI with the Fund before a change in the Fund's sales charge, you may complete the LOI at the lower of the new sales charge or the sales charge in effect when the LOI was filed. Your holdings in Franklin Templeton funds acquired before you filed your LOI will be counted towards the completion of the LOI. Any redemptions you make during the 13 month period, except in the case of certain retirement plans, will be subtracted from the amount of the purchases for purposes of determining whether the terms of the LOI have been completed. If the terms of your LOI are met, the reserved shares will be deposited to an account in your name or delivered to you or as you direct. If the amount of your total purchases, less redemptions, is less than the amount specified in your LOI, the sales charge will be adjusted upward, depending on the actual amount purchased (less redemptions) during the period. You will need to send Distributors an amount equal to the difference in the actual dollar amount of sales charge paid and the amount of sales charge that would have applied to the total purchases if the total of the purchases had been made at one time. Upon payment of this amount, the reserved shares held for your account will be deposited to an account in your name or delivered to you or as you direct. If within 20 days after written request the difference in sales charge is not paid, we will redeem an appropriate number of reserved shares to realize the difference. If you redeem the total amount in your account before you fulfill your LOI, we will deduct the additional sales charge due from the sale proceeds and forward the balance to you. For LOIs filed on behalf of certain retirement plans, the level and any reduction in sales charge for these plans will be based on actual plan participation and the projected investments in Franklin Templeton funds under the LOI. These plans are not subject to the requirement to reserve 5% of the total intended purchase or to the policy on upward adjustments in sales charges described above, or to any penalty as a result of the early termination of a plan. III.
