The following text is added to the section entitled "PURCHASE, REDEMPTION AND
PRICING OF SHARES":
PURCHASES AT NET ASSET VALUE. The following amounts will be paid by FTD, from
its own resources, to securities dealers who initiate and are responsible for
purchases of $1 million or more and for purchases made at net asset value by
certain designated retirement plans (excluding IRA and IRA rollovers),
certain trust companies and trust departments of banks and certain retirement
plans of organizations with collective retirement plan assets of $10 million
or more: 1.00% on sales of $1 million but less $2 million, plus 0.80% on
sales of $2 million but less than $3 million, plus 0.50% on sales of $3
million but less than $50 million, plus 0.25% on sales of $50 million but
less than $100 million, plus 0.15% on sales of $100 million or more.
Dealer concession breakpoints are reset every 12 months for purposes of
additional purchases.
As described in the Prospectus, FTD or its affiliates may make payments, from
its own resources, to securities dealers responsible for certain purchases
at net asset value. As a condition of such payments, FTD or its affiliates
may require reimbursement from such securities dealers with respect to
certain redemptions made within 12 months of the calendar month following
purchase as well as other conditions, all of which may be imposed by an
agreement between FTD, or its affiliates, and the securities dealer.

The text of the section entitled "PURCHASE, REDEMPTION AND PRICING OF SHARES-
LETTER OF INTENT" is deleted and replaced with the following:
Purchasers who intend to invest $50,000 or more in Shares of the Fund or any
other fund in the Franklin Templeton Group (except Templeton Capital Accumulator
Fund, Inc., Templeton Variable Annuity Fund, Templeton Variable Products Series
Fund, Franklin Valuemark Funds and Franklin Government Securities Trust) within
13 months (whether in one lump sum or in installments, the first of which may
not be less than 5% of the total intended amount and each subsequent install-
ment not less than $25 unless the investor is a qualifying employee benefit
plan (the "Benefit Plan"), including automatic investment and payroll
deduction plans), and to beneficially hold the total amount of such Shares
fully paid for and outstanding simultaneously for at least one full business
day before the expiration of that period, should execute a Letter of Intent
("LOI") on the form provided in the Shareholder Application in the Prospectus.
Payment for not less than 5% of the total intended amount must accompany the
executed LOI unless the investor is a Benefit Plan. Except for purchases of
Shares by a Benefit Plan, those Shares purchased with the first 5% of the
intended amount stated in the LOI will be held as "Escrowed Shares" for as
long as the LOI remains unfulfilled. Although the Escrowed Shares are
registered in the investor's name, his full ownership of them is conditional
upon fulfillment of the LOI. No Escrowed Shares can be redeemed by the
investor for any purpose until the LOI is fulfilled or terminated. If the
LOI is terminated for any reason other than fulfillment, the Transfer Agent
will redeem that portion of the Escrowed Shares required and apply the pro-
ceeds to pay any adjustment that may be appropriate to the sales commission
on all Shares (including the Escrowed Shares) already purchased under the LOI
and apply any unused balance to the investor's account. The LOI is not a
binding obligation to purchase any amount of Shares, but its execution will
result in the purchaser
paying a lower sales charge at the appropriate quantity purchase level. A
purchase not originally made pursuant to an LOI may be included under a
subsequent LOI executed within 90 days of such purchase. In this case, an
adjustment will be made at the end of 13 months from the effective date of the
LOI at the net asset value per Share then in effect, unless the investor makes
an earlier written request to the Principal Underwriter upon fulfilling the
purchase of Shares under the LOI. In addition, the aggregate value of any
Shares purchased prior to the 90-day period referred to above may be applied to
purchases under a current LOI in fulfilling the total intended purchases under
the LOI. However, no adjustment of sales charges previously paid on purchases
prior to the 90-day period will be made.
If an LOI is executed on behalf of a benefit plan (such plans are described
under "How to Buy Shares of the Fund - Net Asset Value Purchases" in the
Prospectus), the level and any reduction in sales charge for these employee
benefit plans will be based on actual plan participation and the projected
investments in the Franklin Templeton Group (except Templeton Capital
Accumulator Fund, Inc., Templeton Variable Annuity Fund, Templeton Variable
Products Series Fund, Franklin Valuemark Funds and Franklin Government
Securities Trust) under the LOI. Benefit Plans are not subject to the
requirement to reserve 5% of the total intended purchase, or to any penalty
as a result of the early termination of a plan, nor are Benefit Plans
entitled to receive retroactive adjustments in price for investments made
before executing LOIs.
