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
CUSIP NO. 431571108 13G Page 8 of 14
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 of
them 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.
