Franklin Limited Duration Income Trust (“FTF”) Announces Change to Managed Distribution Plan

FRANKLIN LIMITED DURATION INCOME TRUST (NYSE: FTF) (the “Fund”), a closed-end investment company, announced today that its Board has implemented a new managed distribution plan where the Fund will distribute a level distribution amount to shareholders. The Fund intends to distribute $0.0615 per share monthly which is an annualized distribution rate of 10.49% of NAV as of 11/30/2023. The new managed distribution plan will take effect with the distribution that will be payable on January 31, 2024, to shareholders of record on January 19, 2024 (Ex-dividend Date: January 18, 2024). Previously, the Fund’s monthly distribution was calculated at an annualized rate of 10% based on the prior month’s average net asset value (NAV). The Board believes that paying a level distribution provides greater consistency to investors and may help how the Fund trades relative to its NAV. The Fund’s distribution level may be changed by the Board of Trustees in the future.

Other information

You may request a copy of the Fund’s current Report to Shareholders by contacting Franklin Templeton’s Fund Information Department at 1-800/DIAL BEN® (1-800-342-5236) or by visiting franklintempleton.com. All investments involve risks, including possible loss of principal. Interest-rate movements and mortgage prepayments will affect the Fund’s share price and yield. Bond prices generally move in the opposite direction of interest rates. Thus, as the prices of bonds in the Fund adjust to a rise in interest rates, the Fund's share price may decline. Changes in the financial strength of a bond issuer or in a bond's credit rating may affect its value. High yields reflect the higher credit risks associated with certain lower-rated securities held in the portfolio. Floating-rate loans and high-yield corporate bonds are rated below investment grade and are subject to greater risk of default, which could result in loss of principal—a risk that may be heightened in a slowing economy. The Fund is actively managed but there is no guarantee that the manager's investment decisions will produce the desired results. For portfolio management discussions, including information regarding the Fund’s investment strategies, please view the most recent Annual or Semi-Annual Report to Shareholders which can be found at franklintempleton.com or sec.gov.

Unlike open-end funds (mutual funds), closed-end funds are not continuously offered. Closed-end funds trade on the secondary market through a national stock exchange at a price which may be above (a premium), but is often below (a discount to) the net asset value (NAV) of the fund's portfolio. Unlike a mutual fund, the market price for a closed-end fund is based on supply and demand, not the fund's NAV.
