          Item 4. Ownership

 

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

            investment companies or other managed accounts that are investment management clients of

            investment managers that are direct and indirect subsidiaries (each, an “Investment

            Management Subsidiary” and, collectively, the “Investment Management Subsidiaries”) of

            Franklin Resources Inc. (“FRI”), including the Investment Management Subsidiaries listed

            in this Item 4.  When an investment management contract (including a sub advisory

            agreement) delegates to an Investment Management Subsidiary investment discretion or

            voting power over the securities held in the investment advisory accounts that are

            subject to that agreement, FRI treats the Investment Management Subsidiary as having sole

            investment discretion or voting authority, as the case may be, unless the agreement

            specifies otherwise. Accordingly, each Investment Management Subsidiary 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, the Investment

            Management Subsidiaries listed in this Item 4 may be deemed to be the beneficial owners

            < font lang="EN-US" style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; LINE-HEIGHT: 12pt" color="black" face="courier new">of the securities reported in this Schedule 13G.

 

            Beneficial ownership by Investment Management Subsidiaries and other FRI affiliates is

            being reported in conformity with the guidelines articulated by the SEC staff in Release

            No. 34‑39538 (January 12, 1998) (the “1998 Release”) 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

            each of FRI’s affiliates whose ownership of securities is disaggregated from that of FRI

            in accordance with the 1998 Release (“FRI Disaggregated Affiliates”) are exercised

            independently from FRI and from all other Investment Management Subsidiaries (FRI, its

 

 

 


 
 

      CUSIP NO. 98945L105                           13G   Page 8 of 14

 

          affiliates and the Investment Management Subsidiaries other than FRI Disaggregated

          Affiliates are collectively, “FRI Aggregated Affiliates”). Furthermore, internal policies

          and procedures of, on the one hand, FRI Disaggregated Affiliates, and, on the other hand,

          FRI establish informational barriers that prevent the flow among, on the one hand, FRI

          Disaggregated Affiliates (including preventing the flow between such entities), and, on

          the other hand, the FRI Aggregated Affiliates of information that relates to the voting

          and investment powers over the securities owned by their respective investment management

          clients. Consequently, FRI Disaggregated Affiliates report the securities over which they

          hold investment and voting power separately from the FRI Aggregated Affiliates 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.  FRI and the Principal Shareholders may be deemed to be, for purposes of Rule

          13d‑3 under the Act, the beneficial owners of securities held by persons and entities for

          whom or for which FRI subsidiaries provide investment management services.  The number of

          shares that may be deemed to be beneficially owned and the percentage of the class of

          which such shares are a part are reported in Items 9 and 11 of the cover pages for FRI

          and each of the Principal Shareholders. FRI, the Principal Shareholders and each of the

          Investment Management Subsidiaries disclaim any pecuniary interest in any of such

          securities. In addition, the filing of this Schedule 13G on behalf of the Principal

          Shareholders, FRI and the FRI Aggregated Affiliates, as applicable, should not be

          construed as an admission that any of them is, and each of them disclaims that it is, the

          beneficial owner, as defined in Rule 13d‑3, of any of the securities reported in this

          Schedule 13G.

 

          FRI, the Principal Shareholders, and each of the Investment Management Subsidiaries

          believe that they are not a “group” within the meaning of Rule 13d‑5 under the Act and

          that they are not otherwise required to attribute to each other the beneficial ownership

          of the securities held by any of them or by any persons or entities for whom or for which

          the Investment Management Subsidiaries provide investment management services.
