The Fund is managed in accordance with Templeton s investment philosophy and approach, which are based on three tenets: value, patience, and bottom-up stock selection. Mark Mobius, Ph.D. Executive Chairman, Portfolio Manager Asia is the largest emerging markets region in the world and home to some of the fastest growing economies globally. In fact, more than 50 per cent of the world's population lives in Asia, providing the region with a huge consumer base. WHY CONSIDER THIS FUND Commitment to Shariah investing principles. We apply our specialized emerging markets asset management expertise in combination with the knowledge and advice of Shariah scholars to offer investors this Shariah-compliant portfolio. The fund is independently reviewed and endorsed by the Amanie International Shariah Supervisory Board, highly regarded for their extensive Shariah and technical understanding. The Amanie Scholars provide initial approval on investment objectives and strategy, as well as on going supervisory and monitoring services to ensure continuous adherence to internationally accepted Shariah principles and standards. A pioneer in emerging markets investing. Recognizing the profound political and structural changes occurring in emerging markets, Templeton Emerging Markets Group introduced the industry s first closed end fund dedicated solely to emerging markets, Templeton Emerging Markets Fund, in Managed by an experienced team. Led by Dr. Mark Mobius, one of the longest tenured managers in emerging markets with over 40 years of experience, the Templeton Emerging Markets Group adheres to the same investment philosophy established by Sir John Templeton over 70 years ago.

2 INVESTMENT PHILOSOPHY & PROCESS Founded in 1940, Templeton s investment philosophy is built upon a disciplined, yet flexible, long-term value-oriented approach. As it is applied to emerging markets investing, it is based on three tenets that we believe are critical to successful long-term investing: value, patience, and bottomup stock selection. Value. We seek to identify the underlying worth of a business and determine what that company s assets can generate in earnings and cash flow. We put all of our research efforts into identifying stocks trading at a discount to what our research indicates the company is worth. As long-term, valuationdriven investors, we focus on normalized earnings to seek out compelling opportunities in all sectors and markets around the globe. Patience. Stock markets are often short sighted and affected by sentiment, which creates short-term distortions in share prices. Templeton s long-term focus allows us to look past short-term market noise and identify the fundamental value of a stock. Through our strong research, we determine what a company is worth and patiently wait for the opportunity to purchase it at bargain levels. The depth of our research also gives us the conviction to wait for the market to reflect the fair value of a stock once it is added to our portfolios. Bottom-up. We conduct comprehensive, rigorous fundamental analysis to assess a company s long-term prospects and catalysts for value recognition. Templeton s commitment to original research drives our process to uncover opportunities wherever they may exist. Templeton Emerging Markets Group s investment process consists of five steps: Step 1: Identify Potential Bargains Templeton s unconstrained search for value allows us to identify bargains wherever they exist. Quantitative screening (including screening for Shariah compliance), qualitative assessment and the deep experience of our analysts narrows the investable universe down to a group of securities that merits closer analysis. Our best screen is our experience: Templeton portfolio managers and analysts are industry experts with a comprehensive knowledge of every aspect of their industries. Step 2: In-Depth Fundamental Analysis At Templeton, in-depth fundamental analysis is the foundation of our investment process. Our analysts have been aligned by global industry, with secondary country coverage. This multi-faceted global approach to industry, sector and country research coverage offers a comprehensive perspective. Templeton analysts conduct rigorous fundamental security analysis on all potential investment ideas to determine if the stock is trading at a substantial discount to what our research indicates the company is worth over a normalised five-year investment horizon. The analysis includes a detailed examination of the company s financial statements, particularly factors such as price-to-earnings, price-to-cash flow, debt/equity, price-to-book and dividend yield, in addition to market capitalization and liquidity criteria. We also evaluate a company s competitive position relative to its peers, as well as its management quality, ownership structure, corporate governance, and commitment to creating shareholder value. The latter is accomplished largely through 850-1,000 research visits per year, which includes meetings with company management, competitors, suppliers and customers. When analysing investment ideas, we utilise normalised earnings so as to capture a company s prospects over a full business cycle. Analysts formulate a detailed assessment of trends and analyse cash flow and asset value potential over a long-term investment horizon. They examine a company s fair value based on projected future earnings and evaluate that estimate relative to the current stock price. When assessing the true fundamental value of a company, we are disciplined yet flexible. We adhere to strict and well-defined valuation criteria across all stocks, but our analysts use varying approaches and tools for finding value in different sectors. Through in-depth research, investment ideas are narrowed down to a group of viable Action List candidates. The Action List is the Templeton Emerging Markets Group s approved stock list, comprised of Buy, Sell, and Hold-rated stocks. The Templeton Emerging Markets Group prepares its inhouse Action List, which comprises companies that have been determined to be mispriced by the market and the most undervalued relative to their business prospects. Templeton s collaborative culture ensures that each stock recommendation is thoroughly debated and critiqued. The Action List is the entry point for all approved purchases and is distributed to all analysts and portfolio managers. Each stock on the Action List has a specified buy and sell target. Step 3: Review Team Evaluation The Templeton Emerging Markets Group prepares its inhouse action list, which comprises companies that have been determined to be mispriced by the market and the most undervalued relative to their business prospects. Templeton s collaborative culture ensures that each stock recommendation is thoroughly debated and critiqued. The action list is the entry point for all approved purchases and is distributed to all analysts and portfolio managers. The action list is the emerging markets group s approved stock list and consists of securities from which all funds and For Professional Investor Use Only.

3 portfolios are selected for inclusion in portfolios. Each stock on the action list has a specified buy and sell target. Step 4: Allocate Portfolio At Templeton, we believe that the best investment decisions draw on the collective knowledge of the entire research team. Original research is the foundation of our approach, and the portfolio construction process leverages the insights of all our portfolio managers/analysts within a disciplined framework. All Templeton portfolios are built from the bottom up, on a stock-by-stock basis, with a consistent focus on long-term valuations. As we are concerned first and foremost with the pursuit of compelling valuations, we do not construct portfolios to match the characteristics of any specific benchmark. As a result, our country and industry allocations are a result of the bottom-up stock selection process. When selecting stocks, the portfolio manager has discretion but must do so within a disciplined, structured framework of controls designed to ensure consistency and diversification for all clients. Step 5: Evaluation and Portfolio Maintenance Templeton actively manages our clients portfolios to ensure they continually reflect our best thinking. This is accomplished through a team commitment to ongoing fundamental research and risk management. Several internal groups work closely with our portfolio managers to monitor portfolios and manage risk, and their strong input and support is critical to the portfolio management process. PORTFOLIO CONSTRUCTION The portfolio is built from the approved stock list that comprises Templeton s Global Research Database. Portfolio managers select stocks from the action list, which is comprised of companies our analysts believe are most undervalued relative to their longer-term business prospects. Each stock has an established valuation or price target that is set by the analyst responsible for recommending the security, and stocks are purchased only when the price is within this pre-set price range. A stock is sold if: The security price exceeds our estimation of value, Greater value exists in another similar security, or A fundamental change occurs at a company to alter our forecasts. All holdings are regularly reviewed to ensure that analyst recommendations are up-to-date and accurately reflect any changes in company fundamentals. In this way, our ongoing fundamental research drives all buy and sell decisions. A Disciplined, Repeatable Process, Tailored for Shariah Investors For Professional Investor Use Only.

4 RISK MANAGEMENT The Fund has specific investment guidelines and requirements that are set forth by the board of directors of Franklin Templeton Shariah Funds and is reviewed on a quarterly basis to ensure that the risk management process is adhered to: Stock Selection Constraints Portfolio Managers have the discretion in selecting stocks for the portfolio, but they must be within the approved stock list and general guidelines. Asset Classes The Fund invests primarily in equity securities of companies that are incorporated, or have their area of primary activity, in Asia. The Fund may also invest in equity securities, which are listed on recognized exchanges in capital markets of the Asia Region (excluding Australia, New Zealand, and Japan), as specified in the Fund s Prospectus. However, the Fund may seek investment in other types of securities such as preferred stock, securities convertible into common stock and fixed income securities, both USD and non-usd denominated. However, depending on market conditions, it can invest up to 25% of the total net assets in debt securities of companies and governments located anywhere in the world. Country/regional and Sector Limits The Fund should invest at least 67% of its assets in securities and other investments to reflect the Asian investment region. Min/Max Stock Positions On average the fund will be invested in 50 to 75 positions at any given time. The average size of a position within the Fund is between 0.5% and 8%, with a flexible maximum of 10%. Cash Policy Portfolio managers intend to remain fully invested at all times with a maximum cash position of 10%. Currency Policy Portfolios are not actively hedged. Risk management is integrated into every aspect of the Fund s investment process. To ensure consistency, all portfolios are built within a structured framework of dynamic sector ranges and approved stock lists. Templeton primarily focuses on three types of risk: Stock-specific risk is addressed primarily through the quality of Templeton s research. A disciplined sell methodology also helps to minimize stock-specific risk. Portfolio risk is addressed by creating fund portfolios that are well-diversified and benefit from Templeton s best thinking. Weekly peer reviews are conducted for the portfolio managers to review their positioning relative to their peers and internal guidelines, and to ensure that each portfolio continually reflects Templeton s best investment practices. Operational risk is minimized by the due diligence of the portfolio managers and the separation of all major investment and its related functions. A comprehensive system of checks and balances involving distinct and independent groups ensures that all investment guidelines and restrictions are strictly adhered to. Additionally, market, political and economic risks are taken into account and are address primarily at the stock level. Analysts take all political, economic and currency factors into consideration when making financial forecasts and recommendations. PORTFOLIO MANAGEMENT TEAM Templeton uses a team approach for the management of its emerging markets funds.
