Item 4.  Ownership

The securities reported herein are beneficially owned by one or more open end investment companies

or other managed accounts that are investment management clients of ClearBridge Investments Limited

f/k/s RARE Infrastructure Ltd ("RAE"), ClearBridge RARE Infrastructure International Pty Ltd (“RII”),

ClearBridge RARE Infrastructure (North America) Pty Ltd (“CRINA”) and ClearBridge Investments, LLC (“CIL”),

each an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Franklin Resources, Inc. ("FRI"). When an investment management

contract (including a sub advisory agreement) delegates to CBL, CRII, CRINA, or CIL investment discretion or

voting power over the securities held in the investment advisory accounts that are subject to that agreement,

FRI treats CBL, CRII, CRINA, or CIL as applicable, as having sole investment discretion or voting authority, as

the case may be, unless the agreement specifies otherwise. Accordingly, each of CBL, CRII, CRINA and CIL reports

on Schedule 13G that it has sole investment discretion and voting authority over the securities covered by any such

investment management agreement, unless otherwise noted in this Item 4. As a result, for purposes of Rule 13d-3

under the Act, each of CBL, CRII, CRINA, and CIL may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of the securities reported

in this Schedule 13G.

 

Beneficial ownership by investment management subsidiaries and other affiliates of FRI is being reported in conformity

with the guidelines articulated by the SEC staff in Release No. 34 39538 (January 12, 1998) relating to organizations,

such as FRI, where related entities exercise voting and investment powers over the securities being reported

independently from each other. The voting and investment powers held by CBL, CRII, CRINA, and CIL are exercised

independently from FRI (the ultimate parent holding company of each of CBL, CRII, CRINA, and CIL) and from all other

investment management subsidiaries of FRI (FRI, its affiliates and investment management subsidiaries other than CBL,

CRII, CRINA, and CIL are, collectively, “FRI affiliates”). Furthermore, internal policies and procedures of each of CBL,

CRII, CRINA and CIL, on the one hand, and FRI affiliates, on the other hand, establish informational barriers that prevent

the flow between CBL, CRII, CRINA and CIL, on the one hand, and the FRI affiliates, on the other hand, of information that

relates to the voting and investment powers over the securities owned by their respective investment management clients.

Consequently, each of CBL, CRII, CRINA, and CIL, on the one hand, and the FRI affiliates, on the other hand, report

 


 
 

 

 

CUSIP NO.  18539C204                            13G                            Page 8 of 11

 

the securities over which they hold investment and voting power separately from each other for

purposes of Section 13 of the Act.

 

Charles B. Johnson and Rupert H. Johnson, Jr. (the "Principal Shareholders") each own in excess of 10%

of the outstanding common stock of FRI and are the principal stockholders of FRI. However, because each

of CBL, CRII, CRINA and CIL exercises voting and investment powers on behalf of its investment management

clients independently of FRI affiliates, beneficial ownership of the securities reported by CBL, CRII, CRINA

and CIL is not attributed to the Principal Shareholders. Each of CBL, CRII, CRINA and CIL disclaims any

pecuniary interest in any of the securities reported in this Schedule 13G.  In addition, the filing of this

Schedule 13G on behalf of CBL, CRII, CRINA and CIL should not be construed as an admission that CBL, CRII,

CRINA or CIL is, and each of CBL, CRII, CRINA and CIL disclaims that it is, the beneficial owner, as defined

in Rule 13d-3, of any of such securities.

 

Furthermore, each of CBL, CRII, CRINA and CIL believes that it is not a "group" with FRI affiliates, the

Principal Shareholders, or their respective affiliates within the meaning of Rule 13d-5 under the Act and

that none of them is otherwise required to attribute to any other the beneficial ownership of the securities

held by such person or by any persons or entities for whom or for which CBL, CRII, CRINA or CIL, or the FRI

affiliates provide investment management services.
