7 Your investment portfolio Multi Cap ClearBridge Multi Cap Portfolios Overview The Multi Cap (MCG) portfolios seek out growth company stocks with the potential for aboveaverage long-term earnings and/or cash flow growth Portfolio positioning Designed for investors seeking a growth portfolio with the ability to invest in all market capitalizations 1 Offers a long-term buy-and-hold strategy, which may reduce portfolio turnover Key differentiators We believe a true growth portfolio should consist of stocks that can be held not for a quarter or two, but for many years so that earnings and/or cash flow growth can compound over time Portfolios typically concentrated in generally holdings Sector concentrations can be significant, but are a by product of the bottom-up fundamental researchdriven stock selection process Philosophy We believe that: An all-capitalization portfolio that seeks a low turnover approach to portfolio construction allows earnings and/or cash flow to compound does not force sell decisions based upon market capitalization Intensive, bottom-up investment process seeks inefficiently-priced companies with strong fundamentals, incentive-driven management teams, dominant positions in niche markets and/or goods or services customers are practically compelled to use Objectives The strategy seeks to: achieve long-term capital appreciation through investment in large-, mid- and small- capitalization stocks that have the potential for above average long-term earnings and/or cash flow growth select companies that can be held for long periods of time 1 All market capitalization ranges will not necessarily be represented in an individual account Diversification does not assure a profit or protect against market loss Managers seek to keep portfolio turnover low to allow for the positive compounding effect of dividends over time, although market, security and other investment considerations may cause turnover to be higher from time to time Also, all capitalization ranges will not necessarily be represented in an individual account Risks: All investments involve risk, including the loss of principal, and there is no guarantee that investment objectives will be met Certain limits on the amount of investment in any one company may cause individual investment portfolios to vary from each other, and thus the performance results of such portfolios may also vary from each other, particularly when combined with the price volatility of stocks in such portfolios In additon to investments in large-capitalization companies, investments may be made in speculative and/or small-cap and mid-cap companies which involve a higher degree of risk and volatility than investments in larger, more established companies In addition, because the investments may be concentrated in a limited number of industries and companies, the portfolios may involve heightened risk While most investments are in US companies, investments may also be made in ADRs and other securities of non-us companies in developed and emerging markets which involve risks in addition to those ordinarily associated with investing in domestic securities, including the potentially negative effects of currency fluctuation, political and economic developments, foreign taxation and differences in auditing and other financial standards These risks are magnified in emerging markets 7

8 Your investment portfolio Multi Cap ClearBridge Multi Cap Portfolios investment process Define the investment universe Consider companies across the market capitalization spectrum that we believe have the potential for aboveaverage long-term earnings and/or cash flow growth Perform bottom-up fundamental analysis Emphasize companies with significant franchise value, material ownership stake by management, strong balance sheets and ubiquitous products or services Determine buy-list Identify companies that may be inefficiently priced and/or overlooked by Wall Street at time of position initiation Maintain concentrated portfolio with long-term horizon Construct a low-turnover portfolio of generally holdings concentrated by industry and issuer Allow earnings and/or cash flow growth to compound Review holdings continuously Re-examine a current holding when long-term deterioration in company or industry fundamentals is seen as a significant possibility, valuation is excessive or new idea provides better risk/return prospects Market, security and/or other investment considerations may result in higher turnover from time to time The investment process may change over time The characteristics set forth are intended as a general illustration of some of the criteria the strategy team considers in selecting securities for client portfolios There is no guarantee investment objectives will be achieved 8

9 Your investment portfolio Dividend Strategy ClearBridge Dividend Strategy Portfolios Philosophy Total return portfolio focused on large cap, high-quality companies that: Pay an attractive dividend Have the potential to significantly grow their dividends Provide consistent and competitive risk-adjusted returns Objectives The strategy seeks: Attractive growth of dividend income Long-term capital appreciation To focus on capital preservation in challenging markets Risks: All investments involve risk, including the loss of principal, and there is no guarantee that investment objectives will be met Investments may be made in small- and mid-cap companies, which involve a higher degree of risk and volatility than investments in large-cap companies While most investments are in US companies, investments may be made in ADRs and US-traded ordinary shares of non-us companies in developed and emerging markets which involve risks in addition to those ordinarily associated with investing in domestic securities, including the potentially negative effects of currency fluctuations, political and economic developments, foreign taxation and differences in auditing and other financial standards These risks are magnified in emerging markets Limited investments also may be made in non-dividend paying stocks that are not expected to pay a dividend in the near future The managers may sometimes hold significant portions of portfolio assets in cash equivalents while waiting for buying opportunities Managers seek to keep portfolio turnover low to allow for the positive compounding effect of dividends over time, although market, security and other investment considerations may cause turnover to be higher from time to time Also, all capitalization ranges will not necessarily be represented in an individual account 9

10 Your investment portfolio Dividend Strategy ClearBridge Dividend Strategy Portfolios investment process Define the investment universe Emphasize domestic large-capitalization stocks, but also consider mid- and smallcapitalization companies and ADR s of foreign companies opportunistically Evaluate stocks using proprietary discipline Screen for companies across all market sectors with either an attractive dividend yield, a history of (or prospects for) dividend growth, strong balance sheets, dominant positions and/or reasonable valuations Select securities and construct portfolio Conduct fundamental research and dividend analysis to identify companies with attractive growth characteristics relative to their valuation levels Review process Re-examine a current holding when valuation is realized, fundamentals deteriorate, and/or cyclical shifts alter industry s attractiveness Limited investments also may be made in non-dividend paying stocks that are not expected to pay a dividend in the near future The investment process may change over time The characteristics set forth are intended as a general illustration of some of the criteria the strategy team considers in selecting securities for client portfolios There is no guarantee investment objectives will be achieved 10
