          Item 4.  Ownership

 

          The securities reported herein (the “Securities”) 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 Item 7. 

          Investment management contracts grant to the Investment Management Subsidiaries all investment and/or voting power

          over the securities owned by such investment management clients, unless otherwise noted in this Item 4.  Therefore, for

          purposes of Rule 13d‑3 under the Act, the Investment Management Subsidiaries may be deemed to be the beneficial

          owners of the Securities.

 

          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 Franklin Mutual Advisers, LLC (“FMA”), an indirect wholly‑owned

          Investment Management Subsidiary, are exercised independently from FRI and from all other Investment Management

          Subsidiaries (FRI, its affiliates and the Investment Management Subsidiaries other than FMA are collectively, “FRI

          affiliates”).  Furthermore, internal policies and procedures of FMA and FRI establish informational barriers that prevent the

          flow between FMA and the FRI affiliates of information that relates to the voting and investment powers over the securities

          owned by their respective investment management clients.  Consequently, FMA and the FRI affiliates report 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.  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 the Securities.  In addition, the filing of this

          Schedule 13G on behalf of the Principal Shareholders, FRI and FRI affiliates, as applicable, should not be construed as an

          admission that any of them is, and each disclaims that it is, the beneficial owner, as defined in Rule 13d‑3, of any of the

          Securities. 

 

          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.

Footnotes to Schedule 13G

           

 



[1]  The title of the securities underlying the American Depository Shares is Common Shares. The securities covered by this

   Schedule 13G may include Common Shares and American Depository Shares. The CUSIP reported is the CUSIP for the  

   American Depository Shares.

 

[2]  Franklin Templeton Portfolio Advisors, Inc. (“FTPA”) may beneficially own these securities pursuant to various separately

   managed account investment management arrangements.  Under these arrangements, underlying clients may, from time

   to time, delegate to FTPA the power to vote such securities, in which case FTPA has sole voting power.  To the extent that

   the underlying client retains voting power over any securities, FTPA disclaims any power to vote or direct the vote of such

   securities.

 

[3]  One of the investment management contracts that relates to these securities provides that the applicable FRI affiliate

   share investment power over the securities held in the client’s account with another unaffiliated entity.  The issuer's

   securities held in such account are less than 5% of the outstanding shares of the class.  In addition, FRI does not believe

   that such contract causes such client or unaffiliated entity to be part of a group with FRI or any FRI affiliate within the

   meaning of Rule 13d‑5 under the Act.
