Permal Asset Management LLC (“Permal”), which serves as the Fund’s investment manager, is currently an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Legg Mason, Inc. (“Legg Mason”). Legg Mason has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire a majority ownership interest in EnTrust Capital (“EnTrust”) and combine EnTrust with The Permal Group (“The Permal Group”), an international financial group of companies for which Permal Group Ltd. (“Permal Group Ltd.”), an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Legg Mason, acts as the holding company (the “Combination”). EnTrust is a leading independent hedge fund investor and alternative asset manager headquartered in New York with approximately $12 billion in total assets under management as of February 1, 2016 and complementary investment strategies, investor base and business mix to The Permal Group.

As a result of the Combination, there will be a “change in control”following purposes, as more fully described in the ultimate ownership of Permal for purposes of the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”), as more than 25% of the voting securities of Permal will be owned by Mr. Hymowitz and entities controlled by him, thereby triggering the automatic assignment provision in each of the management and subadvisory agreements with respect to the Fund to which Permal is a party, and each such agreement will terminate as of the date of the closing of the Combination.
A new investment management agreement with respect to a registered investment company generally requires approval by a majority of the company’s outstanding voting securities under the 1940 Act before it goes into effect. As a result, shareholders are being asked to vote on the following Proposal at the Meeting:accompanying Joint Proxy Statement:
| PROPOSAL 1:1) | To approve a new investment management agreement (the “New Management Agreement”) between theFor each Trust, on behalfto elect Trustees of the Fund, and EnTrustPermal;Trust. |

i
If Fund shareholders approve the New Management Agreement at the Meeting, EnTrustPermal will be appointed to serve as the Fund’s investment manager.
At an in-person meeting of the Board of Trustees of the Trust (the “Board” and the members of which are referred to as “Trustees”) held on March 3, 2016 (the “Board Meeting”), Permal recommended, and the Board approved, the appointment of EnTrustPermal as the Fund’s investment manager, contingent on shareholder approval of the New Management Agreement at the Meeting.
What are the parties involved in the Combination and how will EnTrustPermal be structured?
The Permal Group, of which Permal is a member, is owned indirectly by Permal Group Ltd., a holding company of an international financial group of companies. Permal Group Ltd. is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Legg Mason. The Permal Group is one of the largest fund-of-funds investment management firms in the world with approximately $19 billion in assets under management as of December 31, 2015. EnTrust is a leading independent hedge fund investor and alternative asset manager headquartered in New York with approximately $12 billion in total assets as of February 1, 2016 and complementary investment strategies, investor base and business mix to The Permal Group.
EnTrustPermal will be 65% owned by Legg Mason and 35% owned by Gregg S. Hymowitz, EnTrust’s Co-founder and Managing Partner, and entities controlled by him. Mr. Hymowitz and entities controlled by him will also receive consideration of $400 million in cash from Legg Mason. EnTrustPermal will be led by Mr. Hymowitz, who will become the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of EnTrustPermal. Mr. Hymowitz co-founded EnTrust in 1997 following his investment career at Goldman Sachs & Co. The Management Committee and Global Investment Committee of EnTrustPermal will be chaired by Mr. Hymowitz and comprised of current senior professionals from both firms. Key investment and business professionals from both firms have committed to remain employed with EnTrustPermal following the closing and to continue serving the investors of EnTrustPermal.
How will the Combination affect Fund shareholders?
The Combination is not expected to have any substantial effect on the Fund or its shareholders. There are currently no long-term or short-term plans to make changes to management or investment policies, strategies or objectives of the Fund as a result of the Combination. The fees paid under the New Management Agreement will remain the same as under the existing agreement.
When would the New Management Agreement with EnTrustPermal take effect?
If approved by Fund shareholders, the New Management Agreement would take effect if and when the Combination is completed. If the Combination is not completed, your Fund’s current investment management agreement will remain in effect.
What are the features of the New Management Agreement?
The New Management Agreement provides for a substantially similar investment management structure as the Fund’s current investment management agreement. The nature, scope and quality of the investment management services rendered under the New Management Agreement will not diminish as a result of the Combination.
ii
EnTrustPermal will provide general oversight, the Permitted Subadvisers (as defined below) will provide day-to-day portfolio management, the Fund will pay an investment management fee to EnTrustPermal and EnTrustPermal will pay a portion of that fee to the Permitted Subadvisers. The fees under the New Management Agreement will remain the same and will not increase as a result of the Combination.
Will I need to approve new subadvisory agreements?
No. Permal and the Trust have received an exemptive order from the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) that permits Permal, as the Fund’s manager, to appoint and replace Permitted Subadvisers (as defined below), and enter into, amend and terminate subadvisory agreements with Permitted Subadvisers, subject to Board approval but without shareholder approval (the “Manager of Managers Structure”). The term “Permitted Subadviser” means any subadviser that is either unaffiliated with Permal or that is a directly or indirectly wholly-owned subsidiary of Legg Mason. The Manager of Managers Structure will remain in place after the completion of the Combination.
The current subadvisory agreement between Permal and each Permitted Subadviser with respect to the Fund will automatically terminate (along with the current investment management agreement between the Trust, on behalf of the Fund, and Permal, as discussed above) upon the completion of the Combination. Permal has recommended, and the Board has approved, new subadvisory agreements with the Fund’s subadvisers. If the New Management Agreement is approved by the Fund’s shareholders, a new subadvisory agreement with each Permitted Subadviser relating to the Fund will take effect upon the completion of the Combination. Under the Manager of Managers Structure, shareholders will be notified of any new subadvisers with respect to the Fund.
How does the Board recommend I vote?
TheYour Board recommends that you voteFOR the New Management Agreement. “FOR” Proposal 1.
Does the approvalShareholders of the New Management Agreement depend upon other events?
No. Because the Board has already approved the New Management Agreement, approval of the New Management Agreement does not depend upon any events other than the approval of the Fund’s shareholders with respect to the New Management Agreement. However, the New Management Agreement will not go into effect if the Combination is not effected.
What happens if the New Management Agreement is not approved?
The Combination is not contingent on shareholder approval of the New Management Agreement. If the Fund’s shareholders do not approve the New Management Agreement and the Combination is effected, Permal will no longer serve as the Fund’s manager and the Board will take such actions as it deems to be in the best interests of the Fund, which may include resubmitting the New Management Agreement to Fund shareholders or making other advisory arrangements. If the Combination is effected before shareholder approval of the New Management Agreement is obtained, the Board has approved an interim management agreement between the Trust and EnTrustPermal and interim subadvisory and trading agreements between EnTrustPermal and the Permitted Subadvisers. The Fund will continue to solicit your approval of the New Management Agreement while the interim agreements are in place. If the interim agreements go into effect for the Fund, they would expire on the earlier of 150 days after the closing of the Combination or upon shareholder approval of the New Management Agreement.
iii
What if I have questions regarding the New Management Agreement or the Meeting?
If you have any questions about the Proposal, please call 1-877-721-1926 between the hours of 8:00 a.m. and 5:30 p.m. Eastern Time, Monday through Friday.
THE BOARD RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE “FOR”

This Joint Proxy Statement is furnished in connection with the Proposal.solicitation by the Board of Trustees (each, a “Board”) of each of Legg Mason Global Asset Management Trust, Legg Mason Partners Equity Trust and Legg Mason Partners Variable Equity Trust (each, a “Trust”), of proxies to be voted at a joint special meeting of shareholders of each Trust, including their various series (each, a “Fund” and collectively, the “Funds”), scheduled to be held on Tuesday, June 15, 2021 (for each Trust, a “Meeting” and collectively, the “Meetings”), and at any and all adjournments or postponements thereof. The Meetings, which are identified in the enclosed “Notice of Joint Special Meeting of Shareholders,” will be held at 10:00 a.m. (Eastern time). Due to the continuing public health impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and to support the health and safety of Fund shareholders, the Meetings will be held in a virtual meeting format that is accessible solely by means of remote communication. The Meetings will be held for the purposes set forth in the accompanying Notice of Joint Special Meeting of Shareholders. The Board of each Trust has determined that the use of this Joint Proxy Statement is in the best interests of the Funds and their shareholders in light of the related matters being considered and voted on by shareholders. The Meetings are being held together for convenience, but each Meeting is a separate meeting. At each Meeting of a Trust, shareholders of each Fund in the Trust will vote together on the election of Trustees for that Trust. This Joint Proxy Statement and the accompanying materials are being mailed by the Boards on or about [ ], 2021. 3
Each Fund is organized as a series of a Maryland statutory trust. The Trusts are registered investment companies. A list of each Trust, and the series of each Trust, is set forth in Appendix A. Shareholders of record at the close of business on March 1, 2021 (the “Record Date”) are entitled to vote at the Meetings. Shareholders of each Fund are entitled to one vote for each dollar of net asset value represented by the shareholder’s shares of the Fund(s) on the Record Date. The number of shares of each Fund outstanding at the close of business on the Record Date and the net assets of each Fund as of that date are shown in Appendix B. The Fund of which you are a shareholder is named on the proxy card included with this Joint Proxy Statement (references herein to proxy cards include voting instruction forms provided to the holders of variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance contracts). If you own shares in more than one Fund as of the Record Date, you may receive more than one proxy card. Please complete EACH proxy card you receive, or if you vote by telephone or over the Internet, please vote on the proposal with respect to EACH Fund you own. If you vote by telephone or over the Internet, you will be asked to enter a unique code that has been assigned to you, which is printed on your proxy card(s). This code is designed to confirm your identity, provide access into the voting sites and confirm that your instructions are properly recorded. All properly executed proxies received prior to a Trust’s Meeting will be voted at that Meeting. On the matters coming before the Meeting as to which a shareholder has specified a choice on that shareholder’s proxy, the shares will be voted accordingly. If a proxy is properly executed and returned and no choice is specified with respect to Proposal 1, the shares will be voted “FOR” all of the nominees. Shareholders who execute proxies or provide voting instructions by telephone or the Internet may revoke them with respect to the proposal at any time before a vote is taken on the proposal by filing with the applicable Trust a written notice of revocation (addressed to the Secretary of the Trust at the principal executive offices of the Trust at the address above), by delivering a duly executed proxy bearing a later date or by attending and voting at the Meeting, in all cases prior to the exercise of the authority granted in the proxy card. Merely attending the Meeting, however, will not revoke any previously executed proxy. If you hold shares through a broker-dealer, bank, insurance company or other intermediary, please consult your broker-dealer, bank, insurance company or intermediary regarding your ability to revoke voting instructions after such instructions have been provided. Satisfactory evidence of ownership of Fund shares will be required to vote at the Meeting. If you plan to attend the Meeting at the location specified in the notice, we request that you bring photographic identification and a copy of the proxy card included with this Joint Proxy Statement. 4
Annual reports are provided to shareholders of record of each Fund following the Fund’s fiscal year end. Each Fund’s fiscal year end is set forth on Appendix H. Each Fund will furnish, without charge, a copy of its annual report and most recent semi-annual report succeeding the annual report, if any, to a shareholder upon request. Such requests should be directed to the Fund at P.O. Box 9699, Providence, RI 02940-9699 or by calling toll free at 1-877-721-1926. Copies of annual and semi-annual reports of each Fund are also available on the EDGAR Database on the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Internet site at www.sec.gov. Please note that only one annual or semi-annual report or Joint Proxy Statement may be delivered to two or more shareholders of a Fund who share an address, unless the Fund has received instructions to the contrary. To request a separate copy of an annual report or the Joint Proxy Statement, or for instructions as to how to request a separate copy of these documents or as to how to request a single copy if multiple copies of these documents are received, shareholders should contact the applicable Fund at the address and phone number set forth above. 5
VOTE REQUIRED AND MANNER OF VOTING PROXIES The Board of Trustees of each Trust oversees all of the Funds that are series of that Trust. For each Trust, the shareholders of all series will vote together as a single class to elect Trustees and the voting power of the shares of each series will be counted together in determining the results of the voting. A quorum of shareholders with respect to a Trust is required to take action at the Meeting on Proposal 1 with respect to such Trust. For each Trust, the quorum requirement for Proposal 1 is 30% of the voting power of the Trust taken as a whole as of the Record Date. Total voting power of the Trust taken as a whole is determined, not by the number of shares outstanding, but by net asset value of all of the outstanding shares (including fractional shares) of the Trust as of the Record Date. Each share (or fractional share) of a Trust outstanding as of the Record Date is entitled to a number of votes equal to the net asset value of that share (or fractional share) as of the Record Date. This is referred to as “dollar-weighted” voting. Votes cast at each Meeting will be tabulated by the inspectors of election appointed for that Meeting. The inspectors of election, who are employees of Computershare, the proxy solicitor engaged by Legg Mason Partners Fund Advisor, LLC (“LMPFA”), the Funds’ investment manager and/or sub-administrator, on behalf of the Funds, will determine whether or not a quorum is present at the Meeting. Abstentions and “broker non-votes” (shares held by brokers or nominees, typically in “street name,” as to which proxies have been returned but (a) instructions have not been received from the beneficial owners or persons entitled to vote and (b) the broker or nominee does not have discretionary voting power on a particular matter) generally are included for purposes of determining whether a quorum is present at a shareholder meeting, but are not treated as votes cast at such meeting. However, because the Trusts understand that a broker or nominee may exercise discretionary voting power with respect to Proposal 1, and there are no other proposals expected to come before the Meetings for which a broker or nominee would not have discretionary voting authority, the Trusts do not anticipate that there will be any “broker non-votes” at the Meetings. If you hold your shares directly (not through a broker-dealer, bank, insurance company or other intermediary), and if you return a signed proxy card that does not specify how you wish to vote on Proposal 1, your shares will be voted in favor of all of the nominees. Broker-dealer firms holding shares of a Fund in “street name” for the benefit of their customers and clients will request the instructions of such customers and clients on how to vote their shares on the proposal. A signed proxy card or other authorization by a beneficial owner of Fund shares that does not specify how the beneficial owner’s shares should be voted on Proposal 1 may be deemed an instruction to vote such shares in favor of all of the nominees. With respect to routine matters such as Proposal 1, if a beneficial owner fails to provide voting instructions by the date specified in a broker-dealer firm’s proxy solicitation materials, the Trusts 6
understand that the broker-dealer firm may exercise discretionary voting power with respect to Proposal 1 on behalf of such beneficial owner. If you hold shares of a Fund through a broker-dealer, bank, insurance company or other intermediary (called a service agent) that has entered into a service agreement with the Fund or a distributor of the Fund, the service agent may be the record holder of your shares. At the Meetings, a service agent will vote shares for which it receives instructions from its customers in accordance with those instructions. A signed proxy card or other authorization by a shareholder that does not specify how the shareholder’s shares should be voted on the proposal may be deemed to authorize a service agent to vote such shares in favor of the nominees. Depending on its policies, applicable law or contractual or other restrictions, a service agent may be permitted to vote shares with respect to which it has not received specific voting instructions from its customers. In those cases, the service agent may, but may not be required to, vote such shares in the same proportion as those shares for which the service agent has received voting instructions. Because of this practice, a small number of shareholders could determine how a Fund votes, if other shareholders fail to vote. Shares of certain Funds are offered only to (i) variable annuity and variable life insurance separate accounts established by insurance companies (each, a “Participating Insurance Company,” and collectively, the “Participating Insurance Companies”) to fund variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies and (ii) certain qualified pension and retirement plans.(the “Variable Annuity Funds”). The rights accompanying shares of certain of the FundVariable Annuity Funds are legally vested in the variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance products offered by the separate accounts of Participating Insurance Companies.participating life insurance companies. However, in accordance with current law and interpretations thereof, Participating Insurance Companiesparticipating insurance companies will vote shares held in the separate accounts in a manner consistent with voting instructions timely received from the holders of variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies. A signed voting instruction form or other authorization by a holder that does not specify how the holder’s shares should be voted on the Proposalproposal may be deemed an instruction to vote such shares in favor of all of the Proposal.nominees. Those persons who have a voting interest at the close of business on the Record Date will be entitled to submit instructions to their Participating Insurance Company.participating insurance company. Each Participating Insurance Companyparticipating insurance company will vote Variable Annuity Fund shares held in separate accounts for which no timely instructions are received from the holders of variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies, as well as shares it owns, in the same proportion as those shares for which such insurance company receives voting instructions. Because of this practice, a small number of holders of variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies could determine how an insurance company votes with respect to a Variable Annuity Fund, if other holders of variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies fail to vote. For purposes of thethis Joint Proxy Statement, the term “shareholder” (when used to refer to the beneficial holder of ownership interests in thea Fund) shall also be deemed to include holders of variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies. A Proxy Statement is attached to this NoticeIf you beneficially own shares that describes the matter to be voted upon at the Meetingare held in “street name” through a broker-dealer or any adjournment(s)that are held of record by a service agent, or postponement(s) thereof, and a Voting Instruction Card is enclosed.

VOTING INFORMATION
General
The Trust is a Maryland statutory trust organized on October 4, 2006. A Maryland statutory trust is an unincorporated business association that is established under, and governed by, Maryland law. Maryland law provides a statutory framework for the powers, duties, rights and obligations of the trustees and shareholders of the statutory trust, while the more specific powers, duties, rights and obligations of the trustees and the shareholders are determined by the trustees as set forth in the Trust’s declaration of trust. The Fund is a series of the Trust and is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company.
Solicitation of Votes
This Proxy Statement is furnished in connection with a solicitation of proxies by the Fund’s Board to be exercised at the Meeting. This Proxy Statement, along with the Notice of Meeting and a Voting Instruction Card, are first being mailed to Fund shareholders on or about April 6, 2016 or as soon as practicable thereafter. Only shareholders of record as of the close of business on the Record Date will be entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the Meeting, and at any adjournments or postponements thereof. If the enclosed Voting Instruction Card is properly completed, signed and dated and returned in time to be voted at the Meeting, the proxies named thereon will vote the shares represented by the Voting Instruction Card in accordance with the instructions marked thereon. Unmarked but properly signed and dated Voting Instruction Cards will be voted “FOR” approval of the Proposal and in the discretion of the designated proxy holders on any other matter that properly comes before the Meeting. Please see page vii of this Proxy Statement for instructions on how to sign your Voting Instruction Card.
Fund shares are offered only to variable annuity and variable life insurance separate accounts established by insurance companies (each, a “Participating Insurance Company”) to fund variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies. The rights accompanying Fund shares are legally vested in the variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance products offered by the separate accounts of Participating Insurance Companies. However, in accordance with current law and interpretations thereof, Participating Insurance Companies will vote shares held in the separate accounts in a manner consistent with voting instructions timely received from the holders of variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies. A signed and dated Voting Instruction Card or other authorization by a holder that does not specify how the holder’s shares should be voted on the Proposal may be deemed an instruction to vote suchits shares in favor of the Proposal. Those persons who have a voting interest at the close of business on the Record Date will be entitled to submit instructions to their Participating Insurance Company. Each Participating Insurance Company will votean Underlying Fund shares held in separate accounts for which no timely instructions are received from the holders of variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies, as well as shares it owns, in the same proportion as those shares for which such insurance company receives voting instructions.
If you hold shares through a variable annuity contract or a variable life insurance policy, and if you do not give specific voting instructions for your shares, they may not be voted at all or, as described above, they may be voted in a manner that you may not intend. Therefore, you are strongly encouraged to give your Participating Insurance Company specific instructions as to how you want your shares to be voted.
As a result of proportionate voting, the votes of a small number of contract holders could determine the matter being voted on.
The costs of the solicitation will be borne by Legg Mason, Inc. (“Legg Mason”) or its affiliates and not by the Fund. These costs include the cost of preparing, printing and mailing the Proxy Statement, Voting Instruction Cards andreceived from other proxy materials and tabulating the votes. It is estimated that the total costs and expenses to be borne by Legg Mason or its affiliates will be approximately $8,548. This amount does not include the out-of-pocket costs, such as legal expenses, incurred in connection with the preparation of this Proxy Statement, which will also be borne by Legg Mason or its affiliates.
Votes are being solicited by mail. Additional solicitations may be made by letter or telephone by officers or employees of Legg Mason or its affiliates, or by dealers and their representatives. Brokerage houses, banks and other fiduciaries may be requested to forward proxy solicitation material to the beneficial owner of Fund shares to obtain authorization for the execution of proxies. Legg Mason or its affiliates will reimburse brokerage firms, custodians, banks and fiduciaries for their expenses in forwarding the Proxy Statement and proxy materials to the beneficial owners of the Fund’s shares. Legg Mason, on behalf of the Fund, has retained Computershare Fund Services, Inc. (“Computershare”), a proxy solicitation firm, to assist in the solicitation of proxies. It is anticipated that Computershare will be paid approximately $5,375, which is included in the amount above, for such solicitation services, to be borne by Legg Mason or its affiliates as described above. Computershare may solicit proxies personally and by telephone.
Submission of Voting Instructions
Shareholders have three options for submitting voting instructions:
| 1. | Internet—the enclosed Voting Instruction Card includes directions for shareholders to cast their votes via the Internet at a website designed for this purpose. The required control number is printed on each shareholder’s Voting Instruction Card. Shareholders who cast their votes via the Internet do not need to mail their Voting Instruction Card. |
| 2. | Telephone—the enclosed Voting Instruction Card includes directions for shareholders to cast their votes over the telephone. The toll-free telephone number and required control number are printed on each shareholder’s Voting Instruction Card. Shareholders who cast their votes over the telephone do not need to mail their Voting Instruction Card. |
| 3. | Mail—shareholders also may cast their votes by executing the enclosed Voting Instruction Card and mailing it in the envelope provided. The envelope is addressed for your convenience and needs no postage if mailed in the United States. |
The Trust encourages Fund shareholders to vote via the Internet or by telephone. Votes cast via the Internet or over the telephone are recorded immediately and there is no risk that postal delays will cause a Voting Instruction Card to arrive late and therefore not be counted. A shareholder may revoke a Voting Instruction Card at any time prior to its exercise at the Meeting by (1) submitting to the Fund a subsequently executed Voting Instruction Card, (2) delivering to the Fund a written notice of revocation (addressed to the Assistant Secretary at the principal executive office of the Fund at the address shown at the beginning of this Proxy Statement) or (3) otherwise giving notice of revocation at the Meeting. Merely attending the Meeting, however, will not revoke any previously executed voting instructions. Unless revoked, all valid and executed Voting Instruction Cards will be voted in accordance with the specifications thereon or, in the absence of such specifications, for approval of the Proposal. Contract owners should consult their Participating Insurance Company regarding their ability to revoke voting instructions after such instructions have been provided to the Participating Insurance Company. Votes cast by proxy or in person at the Meeting will be tabulated by the
inspectors of election appointed for the Meeting. The inspectors of election will determine whether or not a quorum is present at the Meeting. The inspectors of election will treat abstentions and “broker non-votes” as present for purposes of determining a quorum.
Photographic identification will be required for admission to the Meeting.
Shares Outstanding
Only shareholders of record of the Fund at the close of business on the Record Date are entitled to notice of and to vote at the Meeting and at any postponements or adjournments thereof. As of the close of business on the Record Date, the Fund had the number of shares outstanding as set forth in Exhibit A.
Quorum
The holders of outstanding shares of the Fund entitled to vote and present in person or by proxy representing 30% of the voting power of the Fund shall constitute a quorum at the Meeting for the Fund.
Required Vote
The affirmative vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund is required to approve the Proposal, which under applicable law means the vote of the lesser of (a) 67% or more of the voting power of the voting securities present at the Meeting, if the holders of more than 50% of the voting power of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund are present at the Meeting or represented by proxy, or (b) more than 50% of the voting power of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund. Each whole share (or fractional share) outstanding on the Record Date shall entitle the holder thereof to a number of votes equal to the net asset value of the share (or fractional share) in United States dollars determined at the close of business on the Record Date.
Effect of Abstentions and Broker “Non-Votes”
For purposes of determining the presence of a quorum for the Fund for transacting business at the Meeting, executed proxies marked as abstentions and “broker non-votes” (i.e., proxies from brokers or nominees indicating that such persons have not received instructions from the beneficial owner or other persons entitled to vote shares on a particular matter with respect to which the brokers or nominees do not have discretionary power) will be treated as shares that are present for quorum purposes but which have not been voted. Accordingly, abstentions and broker non-votes will have the effect of a vote against approval of the Proposal. As a result, shareholders are urged to sign and date their Voting Instruction Card and forward their voting instructions promptly.
Adjournments
In the event that a quorum for the Fund shall not be present at the Meeting or in the event that a quorum is present but sufficient votes to approve the Proposal are not received, the chairman of the Meeting or, if a proposal to adjourn is submitted to a vote of shareholders by the chairman, the shareholders of the Underlying Fund, by the affirmative votesometimes called “mirror voting.”
LMPFA and each Fund’s subadviser(s) are subsidiaries of a majority of votes cast on the adjournment, shall have the power to adjourn the Meeting from time to time, without notice other than announcement at the Meeting, until the requisite number of shares entitled to vote at the Meeting shall be present. Unless a proxy provides otherwise, the persons named as proxies will vote upon such adjournment in their discretion. Any adjourned meeting may be held as adjourned without further notice, even if the date of such adjourned meeting is more than 120 days after the notice of the original meeting or the postponement thereof, was mailed or sent. PROPOSAL 1: TO APPROVE A NEW INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT
BETWEEN THE TRUST AND ENTRUSTPERMAL WITH RESPECT TO THE FUND
Background and Description of the Proposal
Permal Asset Management LLC (“Permal”), which currently serves as the Fund’s investment manager, is currently an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Legg Mason,Franklin Resources, Inc. (“Legg Mason”Franklin Resources”). Legg Mason has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire a majority ownership interest in EnTrust Capital (“EnTrust”) and combine EnTrust with The Permal Group (“The Permal Group”), an international financial group of companies for which Permal Group Ltd. (“Permal Group Ltd.”), an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Legg Mason, acts as the holding company (the “Combination”). EnTrust is a leading independent hedge fund investor and alternative asset manager headquartered in New York with approximately $12 billion in total assets under management as of February 1, 2016 and complementary investment strategies, investor base and business mix to The Permal Group. As a result of the Combination, a new holding company named EnTrustPermal LLC will be formed for the combined EnTrust and The Permal Group businesses, with Legg Mason owning 65% and Gregg S. Hymowitz, EnTrust’s Co-founder and Managing Partner, and entities controlled by him owning 35%. Mr. Hymowitz and entities controlled by him will also receive consideration of $400 million in cash from Legg Mason. Mr. Hymowitz co-founded EnTrust in 1997 following his investment career at Goldman Sachs & Co. Upon closing of the Combination, Permal will be renamed EnTrustPermal Management LLC (“EnTrustPermal”) and will be a separate subsidiary of EnTrustPermal LLC.
As a result of the Combination, there will be a “change in control” in the ultimate ownership of Permal for purposes of the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”), as more than 25% of the voting securities of Permal will be owned by Mr. Hymowitz and entities controlled by him, thereby triggering the automatic assignment provision in each of the management and subadvisory agreements with respect to the Fund to which Permal is a party, and each such agreement will terminate as of the date of the closing of the Combination.
A new investment management agreement with respect to a registered investment company generally requires approval by a majority of the company’s outstanding voting securities under the 1940 Act before it goes into effect. As a result, the Board has called the Meeting to present the following proposal (the “Proposal”) to Fund shareholders:
| PROPOSAL 1: | To approve a new investment management agreement between the Trust, on behalf of the Fund, and EnTrustPermal (the “New Management Agreement”); and |
| PROPOSAL 2: | To transact such other business as may properly come before the Meeting or any adjournment(s) or postponement(s) thereof. |
If Fund shareholders approve the New Management Agreement at the Meeting, EnTrustPermal will be appointed to serve as the Fund’s investment manager, subject to the completion of the Combination.
The purpose of this Proxy Statement is to solicit shareholder approval of the Proposal and to explain certain matters relating to the approval of the Proposal, including, but not limited to, the terms of the New Management Agreement, the factors considered by the Board in approving the New Management Agreement, the fees to be paid by the Fund to EnTrustPermal under the New Management Agreement, and information about other comparable funds managed by Permal and EnTrust.
At the in-person Board meeting held on March 3, 2016 (the “Board Meeting”), Permal recommended the appointment of EnTrustPermal as the Fund’s investment manager and the approval of the New Management Agreement in connection with the automatic termination of the Fund’s investment management agreement with Permal as a result of the Combination.
At the Board Meeting, the Board, including all the Trustees who are not “interested” persons of the Trust (the “Independent Trustees”), as defined in the 1940 Act, and who attended the meeting, approved the New Management Agreement between the Trust, on behalf of the Fund, and EnTrustPermal, as well as the submission of the New Management Agreement to Fund shareholders for approval at the Meeting.

Exhibit D contains a list of the individuals who are currently anticipated to serve as the principal executive officers and directors of EnTrustPermal and their principal occupations.
Key Features of the New Management Agreement
The New Management Agreement appears as Exhibit B of this Proxy Statement. The following summary of the terms of the New Management Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the attached Exhibit.
The New Management Agreement provides, among other things, that:
(i) Subject to the supervision of the Board, EnTrustPermal shall regularly provide the Fund with investment research, advice, management and supervision and shall furnish a continuous investment program for the Fund’s portfolio of securities, commodity interests and other investments consistent with the Fund’s investment
objectives, policies and restrictions, as stated in the Fund’s current prospectus and statement of additional information;
(ii) The Fund shall compensate EnTrustPermal for its services, as described below;
(iii) Subject to the Board’s approval and consistent with the 1940 Act and any SEC exemptive relief or guidance thereunder, EnTrustPermal is authorized to enter into, or terminate, contracts with one or more subadvisers, commodity pool operators and commodity trading advisors;
(iv) EnTrustPermal is authorized to select the brokers or dealers to effect portfolio transactions for the Fund;
(v) EnTrustPermal shall oversee the maintenance, and shall arrange for the preservation, of all books and records in accordance with all applicable federal and state laws and regulations and in compliance with the 1940 Act and applicable rules thereunder and the rules of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, and shall surrender promptly to the Fund any of such records upon the Fund’s request; and
(vi) EnTrustPermal, at its expense, shall supply the Board and officers of the Trust with all information and reports reasonably required by them and reasonably available to EnTrustPermal.
For its services under the New Management Agreement, the Fund would pay EnTrustPermal a management fee at an annual rate of 1.90%. This fee is equal to the fee paid to Permal under the current management agreement with respect to the Fund.
If the Proposal is approved by Fund shareholders, the New Management Agreement shall continue in effect for an initial term beginning upon the closing of the Combination and continue in effect through two years from that date. Thereafter, the New Management Agreement shall continue in effect with respect to the Fund, so long as such continuance is specifically approved at least annually (i) by the Board or (ii) by a vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund, provided that in either event the continuance is also approved by a majority of the Board members who are not interested persons of any party to the New Management Agreement, by vote cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such approval. The New Management Agreement terminates automatically upon its assignment by EnTrustPermal and may not be assigned by the Trust without the consent of EnTrustPermal. The New Management Agreement may also be terminated without penalty by the Board or by vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities (as defined in the 1940 Act) of the Fund on not more than 60 days’ nor less than 30 days’ written notice to EnTrustPermal, or by EnTrustPermal without penalty on 90 days’ written notice to the Trust.
Differences Between the Current Management Agreement and the New Management Agreement
The terms of the New Management Agreement are not materially different from the current management agreement between the Trust and Permal, except as to the names of the parties to the agreements (i.e., Permal will become EnTrustPermal) and the effective dates of the agreements.
Interim Agreements
As the Combination is not contingent on shareholder approval of the New Management Agreement, it is possible that the Combination could occur prior to shareholder approval of the New Management Agreement for the Fund, which would leave the Fund without an investment manager. In order to ensure that the Fund’s operations can continue uninterrupted, the Board approved interim management, subadvisory and trading agreements for the Fund, which will become effective only if the current management, subadvisory and trading
agreements terminate due to the Combination before Fund shareholders approve the New Management Agreement. There are no material differences between the interim management, subadvisory and trading agreements for each of the Fund and Alternative Select VIT Portfolio Ltd., the Fund’s wholly owned Cayman subsidiary (the “Subsidiary”), and the current management, subadvisory and trading agreements, except for the term and termination provisions. In addition, the interim management agreement for the Fund contains provisions required by Rule 15a-4 under the 1940 Act, which state that the management fees must be paid into an interest-bearing escrow account with the Fund’s custodian for the period during which the interim management agreement is effective. In accordance with the requirements of Rule 15a-4, the interim management agreement would have a maximum term of 150 days from the expiration of the current agreement. In the event that the interim management agreement goes into effect, the Fund would continue to solicit shareholder approval of the New Management Agreement.
Other Funds Managed by Permal and EnTrust
Permal serves as the investment adviser or subadviser for other investment companies that have an investment goal similar to that of the Fund. The name of each such fund,Franklin Resources, together with information concerning the fund’s assets, and the advisory or subadvisory fee rate currently paid to Permal for its management or subadvisory services, are set out in Exhibit D. If the required shareholder approvals are obtained, EnTrustPermal will servesubsidiaries, operates as the investment manager or subadviser to each such fund upon the completion of the Combination. There are two registered investment companies for which EnTrust would serve as the investment adviser should they commence operations. Information for those registered investment companies is set forth in Exhibit D.
Factors Considered by the Board of Trustees
At the March 3, 2016 Board meeting (the “March Board Meeting”), the Board, including the Independent Trustees, discussed and approved the New Management Agreement between the Trust, on behalf of the Fund, and EnTrustPermal, pursuant to which EnTrustPermal would continue to serve as “manager of managers” for the Fund, and agreed to recommend that shareholders of the Fund approve the New Management Agreement.
The Board, including the Independent Trustees, also discussed and approved the new subadvisory agreements between EnTrustPermal and each of the Permitted Subadvisers with respect to the Fund, pursuant to which each Permitted Subadviser will provide day-to-day management of a percentage of the Fund’s portfolio allocated to it by EnTrustPermal. The Board, including the Independent Trustees, also discussed and approved separate management, subadvisory and trading agreements (“Subsidiary Agreements”) with respect to the Subsidiary, and interim management, subadvisory and trading agreements for the Fund and the Subsidiary that would go into effect for a limited period of time if the New Management Agreement was not approved by shareholders prior to the closing of the Combination. The Board, including the Independent Trustees, concluded that approval of these agreements was in the best interests of the Fund and its shareholders.
The discussion that follows below is limited to the Board’s approval of the New Management Agreement, as that is the only Proposal that shareholders of the Fund will be voting upon.
The current management agreement with respect to the Fund was most recently approved by the Board, including the Independent Trustees, at the November 2-3, 2015 Board meeting (the “November Board Meeting”). At the November Board Meeting, the Independent Trustees requested and received information from Permal they deemed reasonably necessary for their review of the current management agreement and the
performance and services provided by Permal. This information was initially reviewed by a special committee of the Independent Trustees and then by the full Board. The information received by the Board included information related to the fees paid by the Fund to Permal, fee waiver arrangements with respect to the management fees and the profitability of Permal, among other items, in accordance with Section 15(c) of the 1940 Act.
Management believed that there were no material changes to the information presented at the November Board Meeting relevant to the Board’s consideration of the New Management Agreement, other than the information about EnTrustPermal and the Combination. Based on management’s representation that the Combination was not expected to have a material impact on the nature, extent or quality of the investment management services that Permal currently provides to the Fund, that the Permal personnel who have been principally responsible for managing the Fund’s investment portfolio would continue to serve in their respective capacities following the Combination and that the terms of the New Management Agreement were substantially similar in material respects to the current management agreement, the Board considered information presented to them as part of the annual agreement review process at the November Board Meeting, as well as information about EnTrust, EnTrustPermal and the Combination received at the March Board Meeting. In connection with the March Board Meeting and in accordance with Section 15(c) of the 1940 Act, the Board requested, and Permal and EnTrust provided, materials relating to the Combination, EnTrust and EnTrustPermal in connection with the Board’s consideration of whether to approve the New Management Agreement. This included a description of the Combination and its anticipated effects on EnTrust and Permal as well as information regarding EnTrust and its business activities, personnel and affiliates. The Board noted that the terms of the New Management Agreement were not materially different from the terms of the current management agreement with Permal, except with respect to the names of the parties and the effective dates. Management represented that under the New Management Agreement there would be no diminution in services provided by EnTrustPermal or changes in the fees payable by the Fund as a result of the Combination. The Board also considered the substance of discussions with representatives of Permal at the November Board Meeting and representatives of Permal and EnTrust at the March Board Meeting. Additionally, the Board reviewed materials supplied by counsel that were prepared for use by the Board in fulfilling its duties under the 1940 Act.
In voting to approve the New Management Agreement, the Board considered whether the approval of the New Management Agreement would be in the best interests of the Fund and its shareholders, an evaluation based on several factors including those discussed below. The Independent Trustees were separately represented by counsel that is independent of Permal and EnTrust in connection with their consideration of approval of the New Management Agreement. The factors discussed below were also considered separately by the Independent Trustees in executive sessions during which such independent counsel provided guidance to the Independent Trustees. No single factor reviewed by the Board was identified by the Board as the principal factor in determining whether to approve the New Management Agreement. Based on their discussions and considerations, including those described below, the Board, including the Independent Trustees, approved the New Management Agreement to be effective after the closing of the Combination. It is currently anticipated that the New Management Agreement will be reviewed by the Board as part of its annual review of advisory arrangements for the Fund in the fall of 2016.
Nature, Extent and Quality of the Services Provided to the Fund under the New Management Agreement. At the November Board Meeting, the Board received and considered information regarding the nature, extent and quality of services provided to the Fund by Permal under the current investment management agreement
since the Fund commenced operations. The Board noted information received at regular meetings throughout the year related to the services rendered by Permal to the Fund, including the scope and quality of the investment management and other capabilities of Permal and the Permitted Subadvisers and the quality of Permal’s administrative and other services. The Board’s evaluation of the services to be provided by Permal took into account the Board’s knowledge and familiarity gained as Trustees of funds in the Legg Mason fund complex, including the services rendered by Permal in its management of the Fund and other funds in the Legg Mason fund complex. The Trustees also discussed information regarding the process by which Permal selected and recommended the Permitted Subadvisers for Board approval and Permal’s supervisory activities over the Permitted Subadvisers. The Board reviewed information received from the Trust’s Chief Compliance Officer (the “CCO”) regarding the Fund’s compliance policies and procedures established pursuant to Rule 38a-1 under the 1940 Act.
At the March Board Meeting, the Board also received and considered information regarding the fact that the nature, extent and quality of services to be provided to the Fund by EnTrustPermal under the New Management Agreement would not change as a result of the Combination. The Independent Trustees considered information regarding the process by which EnTrustPermal will select and recommend the Permitted Subadvisers of the Fund for Board approval and that EnTrustPermal’s proposed supervisory activities over the Permitted Subadvisers would not change under the New Management Agreement. In addition, the Independent Trustees received and considered other information regarding the administrative and other services to be rendered to the Fund and its shareholders by EnTrustPermal, which would not change under the New Management Agreement. The Independent Trustees considered the specific responsibilities in all aspects of the day-to-day management of the Fund by Permal, and the fact that the persons responsible for portfolio management under EnTrustPermal were anticipated to remain the same. The Trust’s CCO discussed the compliance infrastructure of the Fund following the Combination.
The Trustees then discussed with management the portfolio management strategies of the Fund’s portfolio managers and noted that there were currently no long-term or short-term plans to make changes to the management or investment policies, strategies or objectives of the Fund as a result of the Combination. The Trustees noted that EnTrustPermal was committed to providing the resources necessary to assist the Fund’s portfolio managers in managing the Fund. The Board also considered, based on its knowledge of Legg Mason, EnTrust and Permal, the financial resources that will be available to EnTrustPermal.
The Board also considered that the division of responsibilities between EnTrustPermal and the Permitted Subadvisers and that the oversight provided by EnTrustPermal would remain the same as it is currently with Permal. At the March Board Meeting, the Board considered the facts that EnTrust does not currently provide investment advisory services to registered investment companies and that there are two registered investment companies for which EnTrust would serve as investment adviser should they commence investment operations, but that neither registered investment company had commenced operations as of the date of the March Board Meeting.
The Board concluded that, overall, it was satisfied with the nature, extent and quality of services provided and expected to be provided under the New Management Agreement.
Fund Performance. The Trustees considered the investment performance of Permal and the Permitted Subadvisers in managing the Fund’s portfolio as a factor in evaluating the New Management Agreement during the March Board Meeting. At the November Board Meeting, the Board received and reviewed performance information for the Fund that was provided by Permal since the Fund had less than one year of performance
available during the review period. The Trustees noted that they also had received and discussed with management at periodic intervals information on the investment performance of the Fund in comparison to its benchmark performance index. The information comparing the Fund’s performance to that of its benchmark index was for the six-month period ended June 30, 2015. The Fund performed better than the benchmark index for the period. The Trustees discussed with representatives of Permal the investment strategy employed by Permal and the Permitted Subadvisers in the management of the Fund’s assets. The Trustees noted the reputation and experience of Permal and the Permitted Subadvisers, the respective portfolio managers’ experience, and Permal’s experience and reputation in selecting, evaluating, and overseeing investment managers. Based on these factors and noting the limited period of performance data available, the Board determined to approve the current management agreement. At the March Board Meeting, the Board referred to additional information on Fund performance received earlier in the year which showed that the Fund’s performance was below the Lipper category average for the one-year period ended December 31, 2015.
The Trustees discussed with representatives of Permal and EnTrust that the investment strategies to be employed by EnTrustPermal and the Permitted Subadvisers in the management of the Fund’s assets are currently expected to remain the same after the Combination. The Trustees considered the fact that the persons responsible for portfolio management of the Fund under EnTrustPermal were anticipated to remain the same. Based on these factors and noting that the Fund had commenced operations less than two years ago, the Board determined to approve the New Management Agreement. The Board also determined to continue to evaluate the Fund’s performance and directed the Independent Trustees’ performance committee to continue to periodically review Fund performance with Permal and, after the Combination, with EnTrustPermal, and report to the full Board during periods between Board meetings.
Management Fees and Expense Ratios. At the November Board Meeting, the Board reviewed and considered the contractual management fee (the “Contractual Management Fee”) payable by the Fund to Permal pursuant to the Fund’s current management agreement, which is identical to that payable under the New Management Agreement, in light of the nature, extent and quality of the management and subadvisory services provided by Permal and the Permitted Subadvisers, respectively. In addition, because of Permal’s fee waiver and/or expense reimbursement arrangement that was in effect for the Fund, which reduced the management fee paid to Permal, the Board also reviewed and considered the actual management fee rate (after taking into account waivers and reimbursements) (the “Actual Management Fee”). At the March Board Meeting, the Board noted that the Contractual Management Fee will remain the same under the New Management Agreement. The Trustees also noted that EnTrustPermal had committed to continue Permal’s current fee waiver and/or expense reimbursement arrangement with the Fund, which cannot be terminated prior to December 31, 2017 without the Board’s consent, and that the terms of the current fee waiver and expense reimbursement arrangement will not change as a result of the Combination.
The Board also noted that PermalFranklin Templeton. Franklin Templeton and its affiliates (including Legg Mason) currently provideintend to vote Fund shares they own, whether as seed capital or otherwise, in favor of all of the Fund with regulatory compliance and administrative services, office facilities and Trust officers (including the Trust’s chief financial, chief legal and chief compliance officers) and that after the Combination, EnTrustPermalnominees. Unless otherwise provided in client guidelines, Franklin Templeton and its affiliates (including Legg Mason) will continuegenerally intend to provide these same services and the Trust’s officers will not change. The Board also noted that Permal currently coordinates and oversees the provision of services to thevote Fund by the Permitted Subadvisers and other Fund service providers and that EnTrustPermal will, under the New Management Agreement, fulfill these same responsibilities.
Additionally, at the November Board Meeting, the Board received and considered information comparing the Fund’s Contractual Management Fee and Actual Management Fee and the Fund’s overall expense ratio for the six-month period ended June 30, 2015 with those ofshares owned in a group of alternative other funds underlying variable insurance products selected by Lipper, Inc. (“Lipper”),client account over which Franklin Templeton or an independent provider of investment company data, as comparable to the Fund (the “Expense Group”), and a broader group of funds selected by Lipper consistingaffiliate has discretionary authority in favor of all alternative other funds underlying variable insurance products (the “Expense Universe”). This information showed that the Fund’s Contractual Management Fee was higher than the median of management fees paid by the funds in the Expense Group and that the Fund’s Actual Management Fee was lower than the median of management fees paid by the funds in the Expense Group and was lower than the average management fee paid by the funds in the Expense Universe. This information also showed that the Fund’s total expense ratio was higher than the median of the total expense ratios of the funds in the Expense Group and was higher than the average total expense ratio of the funds in the Expense Universe. The Trustees also noted the Manager’s fee waiver and/or expense reimbursement arrangement, which will not change as a result of the Combination.
Manager Profitability. At the November Board Meeting, the Board received and considered a profitability analysis of Permalnominees. Please see Appendix I for information regarding persons, including Franklin Templeton and its affiliates, in providing services to the Fund. The Board also received profitability information with respect to the Legg Mason fund complex as a whole. In addition, the Board received information with respect to Permal’s allocation methodologies used in preparing this profitability data. The Board also noted the profitability percentage ranges determined by appropriate court cases to be reasonable given the services rendered to investment companies. The Board determined that Permal’s profitability was not excessive in light of the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to the Fund.
At the March Board Meeting, management noted that no material impact to Permal’s profitability with respect to the Fund is expected as a result of the Combination. Therefore, the Board determined that EnTrustPermal’s expected profitability should not be excessive in light of the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to the Fund after the Combination.
Economies of Scale. At the November Board Meeting, the Board received and considered information regarding whether there have been economies of scale with respect to the management of the Fund as the Fund’s assets grow, whether the Fund has appropriately benefited from any economies of scale, and whether there is potential for realization of any further economies of scale. The Board considered whether economies of scale in the provision of services to the Fund were being passed along to the shareholders. The Board noted that to the extent the Fund’s assets increase over time, the Fund and its shareholders should realize economies of scale as certain expenses, such as fixed fund fees, become a smaller percentage of overall assets. The Board noted that it appeared that the benefits of any economies of scale also would be appropriately shared with shareholders through increased investment in fund management and administration resources. Taking all of the above into consideration, the Board determined that the management fee was reasonable in light of the performance and comparative expense information and the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to the Fund under the current management agreement.
At the March Board Meeting, the Board determined that since the management fee would not change as a result of the Combination, the management fee under the New Management Agreement would be reasonable in light of the performance and comparative expense information and the nature, extent and quality of the services expected to be provided to the Fund by EnTrustPermal under the New Management Agreement.
Other Benefits to Permal and EnTrust. At the November Board Meeting, the Board considered other benefits received by Permal and its affiliates as a result of their relationship with the Fund. In light of the costs of providing investment management and other services to the Fund and Permal’s commitment to the Fund, any other ancillary benefits that Permal and its affiliates received were considered reasonable. At the March Board Meeting, the Board considered the benefits to be received by Legg Mason, Permal, EnTrust and EnTrustPermal as a result of the Combination, as well as the benefits to be received by EnTrustPermal as a result of the relationship with the Fund, and determined that any such ancillary benefits were reasonable.
Shareholder Approval
Approval of the Proposal will require the affirmative vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund, as defined in the 1940 Act. A “majority of the outstanding voting securities” is defined in the 1940 Act as the lesser of (a) 67% or more of the voting power of the voting securities present at the Meeting, if the holders of more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund are present at the Meeting or represented by proxy, or (b) more than 50% of the voting power of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund.
Affiliates of Legg Mason beneficially own and have voting authority over more than 60% of the Fund’s outstanding voting securities (as of February 29, 2016). Such shares will be voted on the Proposal in the same proportion to the total votes received from shareholders who are not affiliates of Legg Mason.
The Combination is not contingent on shareholder approval of the New Management Agreement. If Fund shareholders do not approve the New Management Agreement and the Combination is effected, Permal will no longer serve as the Fund’s manager and the Board will take such actions as it deems to be in the best interests of the Fund, which may include resubmitting the New Management Agreement to the Fund’s shareholders or making other advisory arrangements. If the Combination is effected before shareholder approval of the New Management Agreement is obtained, the Board has approved an interim management agreement between the Trust and EnTrustPermal and interim subadvisory and trading agreements between EnTrustPermal and the Permitted Subadvisers with respect to the Fund. The Fund will continue to solicit your approval of the New Management Agreement while the interim agreements are in place. If the interim agreements go into effect for the Fund, they would expire on the earlier of 150 days after the closing of the Combination or upon shareholder approval of the New Management Agreement.
Ownership of Shares
Information as to shareholders that owned or heldowned of record 5% or more of the outstanding shares of a class of a Fund.
Proposal 1: For each Trust, nominees must be elected by a plurality of the votes cast at the Meeting at which a quorum exists. For each Trust, the shareholders of all series will vote together as a single class and the voting power of the shares of each series will be counted together in determining the results of the voting for the proposal. THE PROPOSAL TO ELECT TRUSTEES The purpose of the proposal is to elect Trustees of Legg Mason Global Asset Management Trust, Legg Mason Partners Equity Trust and Legg Mason Partners Variable Equity Trust. Currently, two different Boards (each an “Existing Board” and together, the “Existing Boards”) oversee the Funds. The Boards recommend that shareholders elect all of the nominees, which will result in a single group of Trustees (the “Combined Board”), comprised of members of both Existing Boards, overseeing all of the Funds. The nominees for Trustees of the Combined Board (each, a “Nominee”) are: Paul R. Ades, Andrew L. Breech, Althea L. Duersten, Stephen R. Gross, Susan M. Heilbron, Howard J. Johnson, Arnold L. Lehman, Robin J.W. Masters, Jerome H. Miller, Ken Miller, G. Peter O’Brien, Thomas F. Schlafly and Jane Trust. All of the Nominees, except for Ms. Trust, are not “interested persons” (as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”)) of the Funds (the “Independent Trustee Nominees.”) 8
It is intended that the enclosed proxy card will be voted for all Nominees for the Combined Board unless a proxy contains specific instructions to the contrary. The Nominees’ term of office is expected to commence on or about July 1, 2021 or promptly after the election of the Nominees if the Meeting is adjourned or postponed to a date after July 1, 2021. The current members of Legg Mason Partners Equity Trust and Legg Mason Partners Variable Equity Trust (“Existing Board 1”) are: Paul R. Ades, Andrew L. Breech, Althea L. Duersten, Stephen R. Gross, Susan M. Heilbron, Howard J. Johnson, Jerome H. Miller, Ken Miller, Thomas F. Schlafly and Jane Trust. The current members of Legg Mason Global Asset Management Trust (“Existing Board 2”) are: Ruby P. Hearn, Arnold L. Lehman, Robin J.W. Masters, Jill E. McGovern, Arthur S. Mehlman, G. Peter O’Brien, S. Ford Rowan, Robert M. Tarola and Jane Trust. Each series of each Trust is listed on Appendix A. Reasons for Board Combination The Independent Trustee Nominees for the Combined Board consist of all nine current members of Existing Board 1 and three current members of Existing Board 2. Ms. Trust serves as an interested trustee on each Existing Board and is nominated to serve as interested trustee on the Combined Board. In identifying the Nominees, each Existing Board went through a due diligence process to meet the Trustees on the other board and understand the Funds that will be overseen by the Combined Board. The Existing Boards believe that the Combined Board may provide benefits to the Funds. The Board combination is the result of discussions and meetings among the members of the Existing Boards and with management, during which the Existing Boards considered a number of matters about governance of the Funds. Among other things, the Existing Boards concluded with respect to the establishment of the Combined Board: The Combined Board would promote efficient and effective oversight of the Funds. The Combined Board will have the benefit of the particular skill sets, experiences and other attributes of the Nominees. The election of the Combined Board addresses the need for the Funds overseen by Existing Board 1 to have a shareholders meeting in the near future following changes in Board composition as a result of retirements. The Combined Board would assist in enabling the Board to attract and retain qualified individuals to serve as Trustees. The costs to the Funds from the Combined Board are expected to be less per Fund than the current expenses of fund governance, which should produce 9
| current expense reductions for those Funds that are not subject to an expense cap. Funds that are currently subject to an expense cap may benefit in the future as their assets grow. |
The Combined Board would promote a more efficient use of resources by management, which may enhance management’s productivity with respect to the Funds. LMPFA would also benefit from reduced expenses. Each Existing Board considered that, during the course of the next several years, the Existing Board will have a number of vacancies due to scheduled retirements. Existing Board 1 considered that two shareholder-elected Trustees of Existing Board 1 are scheduled to retire at the end of 2021. Upon the retirement of these Trustees less than a majority of Existing Board 1 will have been elected by shareholders. Under the 1940 Act, a mutual fund must call a shareholder meeting to elect Trustees if at any time less than a majority of its board members have been elected by shareholders. As a result, it will be necessary for shareholders of the Funds overseen by Existing Board 1 to elect Trustees to meet this legal requirement. Existing Board 2 considered that, although it does not anticipate a need to call a shareholder meeting in the immediate future to elect Trustees due to retirements, it would need to hold a shareholder meeting to elect Trustees during the course of the next several years. Existing Board 2 considered that the Combined Board will provide a means to repopulate the Board with well qualified individuals who are knowledgeable about the subadviser(s), the service providers and the fund complex. Existing Board 2 also considered that, in accordance with an agreement by Franklin Templeton to bear certain costs of the Meeting to elect the Combined Board, and in accordance with existing contractual or voluntary agreements to waive fees and/or reimburse expenses for certain Funds, for Funds overseen by Board 2, Franklin Templeton will bear a sizeable portion or all of each Fund’s allocated portion of these costs, thus saving shareholders those future expenses. Furthermore, each Existing Board considered that, upon the election of all thirteen Nominees, the Combined Board will have greater flexibility than either Existing Board now has to fill future board vacancies, resulting from Trustee retirements or otherwise, occurring in between shareholder meetings without the time and expense associated with calling a shareholder meeting (to the extent permitted by applicable law), while also facilitating the Combined Board’s ability to provide continuity as Trustee retirements occur over the years. As discussed above, under the 1940 Act, a mutual fund must call a shareholder meeting to elect trustees if at any time less than a majority of February 29, 2016its board members were elected by shareholders. Moreover, a mutual fund board is permitted to fill any vacancy, for example those resulting from retirements, without calling a shareholder meeting if immediately after filling the vacancy at least two-thirds of the board members then holding office have been elected by shareholders. Each Nominee has consented to serve on the Board to which he or she has been nominated if elected by shareholders. If, however, before the election, any Nominee is 10
unable to serve or for good cause will not serve, proxies may be voted for a replacement nominee, if any, designated by the current Trustees. The Nominees’ terms of office are expected to commence on or about July 1, 2021. Each Nominee will be elected to hold office as a Trustee until his or her successor is elected and qualifies or until his or her earlier death, resignation, retirement or removal. The nominations of the Nominees listed below have been approved by each Existing Board and its nominating committee. Information about the Nominees for the Combined Board is set forth in Exhibit E. Brokerage Commissionsthe sections below. Each Board has determined that the number of its Trustees shall be fixed at the number of Trustees elected at the Meeting, subject to Affiliatesany further changes in Board size permitted by applicable law and the applicable Trust’s charter documents.
The Fund didterms of office of Ruby P. Hearn, Jill E. McGovern, Arthur S. Mehlman, S. Ford Rowan and Robert M. Tarola, current members of Existing Board 2, will not pay brokerage commissionscontinue with respect to the Funds once the Combined Board takes office. Drs. Hearn and McGovern and Messrs. Mehlman, Rowan and Tarola are retiring from service as Trustees of the Funds. In recognition of their retirements, Drs. Hearn and McGovern and Messrs. Mehlman, Rowan and Tarola will receive payments from the Funds overseen by Existing Board 2 equal to the amount of Trustee compensation she or he would have received had she or he continued to be a member of Existing Board 2 until December 31, 2021. In addition, each of the Independent Trustees of Existing Board 2 received meeting fees for special meetings of the Independent Trustees Committee held to consider the Board consolidation proposal and Dr. Hearn, who led the due diligence review on behalf of Existing Board 2, received additional compensation for those services. Franklin Templeton or its affiliates will reimburse the Funds for these payments. Please see Appendix C. 11

Qualifications of Current Trustees and Nominees Each Existing Board believes that the experience, qualifications, attributes and/or skills of each Nominee and of each of its current Trustees on an individual basis and in combination with those of its other current Trustees and the Nominees lead to the conclusion that each Board possesses the requisite skills and attributes. Each Existing Board believes that the Nominees’ and its current Trustees’ abilities to review, critically evaluate, question and discuss information provided to them, to interact effectively with each Fund’s manager, subadviser(s), other service providers, counsel and independent auditors, and to exercise effective business judgment in the performance of their duties, support this conclusion.

General Information Regarding the Boards Compensation: Information relating to compensation paid to the Nominees and current Trustees who serve on the Existing Boards for the Most Recent Year1 is set forth in Appendix C. Equity Securities Owned by the Current Trustees and Nominees: Information relating to the amount of equity securities of the Funds and other funds in the fund complex owned by the current Trustees and the Nominees as of February 12, 2021 is set forth in Appendix D. Attendance of Trustees at Annual Meeting: No Trust has a policy with regard to attendance of Trustees at annual shareholder meetings. No annual meeting for any Trust was held during the Most Recent Year. Board Meetings: During the Most Recent Year, Existing Board 1 met six times and Existing Board 2 met nine times. Each Nominee and current Trustee attended more than 75% of the aggregate number of meetings of each Board and of each committee of each Board on which he or she served. Board Leadership Structure, Oversight and Standing Committees of the Existing Boards: Information relating to the various standing committees of the Existing Boards is set forth in Appendix E. The Chair of each Existing Board and the committee chairs work with the Chief Executive Officer of the Trusts to set the agendas for Board and committee meetings. Each Chair serves as a key point person for interaction between management and the other Independent Trustees. Through each Existing Board’s committees the Independent Trustees consider and address important matters involving the Funds, including those presenting conflicts or potential conflicts of interest for management. The Independent Trustees also regularly meet outside the presence of management and are advised by independent legal counsel. Each Existing Board has determined that its committees help ensure that the Funds have effective and independent governance and oversight. Each Existing Board also has determined that its leadership structure, in which the Chair of the Board is not affiliated with Franklin Templeton, is 1 The term “Most Recent Year,” when used in the Joint Proxy Statement and the relevant Appendices, refers to the calendar year ended December 31, 2015.2020, which coincides with the last fiscal year of certain of the Funds, as shown in Appendix H. Other Service Agreements
21
appropriate. Each Existing Board also believes that its leadership structure facilitates the orderly and efficient flow of information between the Independent Trustees and management, including each Fund’s subadviser(s). Each Fund’s service providers, primarily each Fund’s manager, sub-administrator (for certain Funds), subadviser(s) and, as appropriate, their affiliates, have responsibility for the day-to-day management of the Fund, which includes responsibility for risk management. As an integral part of its responsibility for oversight of each Fund, each Existing Board oversees risk management of the Fund’s investment program and business affairs. Oversight of the risk management process is part of each Existing Board’s general oversight of each Fund and its service providers. The Existing Boards have emphasized to each Fund’s manager, sub-administrator (for certain Funds) and subadviser(s) the importance of maintaining vigorous risk management. The followingFunds are subject to a number of risks, including investment risk, counterparty risk, valuation risk, reputational risk, cybersecurity risk, risk of operational failure or lack of business continuity, and legal, compliance and regulatory risk. Risk management seeks to identify and address risks, i.e., events or circumstances that could have material adverse effects on the business, operations, shareholder services, investment performance or reputation of the Funds. Each Fund’s manager, sub-administrator (for certain Funds) and subadviser(s), the affiliates of the manager, sub-administrator, and subadviser(s) or various service providers to the Fund employ a variety of processes, procedures and controls to identify various of those possible events or circumstances, to lessen the probability of their occurrence and/or to mitigate the effects of such events or circumstances if they do occur. Different processes, procedures and controls are employed with respect to different types of risks. Various personnel, including the Funds’ and the manager’s Chief Compliance Officer and the manager’s chief risk officer, as well as personnel of the manager (for certain Funds), subadviser(s) and other service providers, such as the Funds’ independent registered public accounting firm, make periodic reports to the Existing Boards or their committees with respect to various aspects of risk management, as well as events and circumstances that have arisen and responses thereto. The Trustees recognize that not all risks that may affect the Funds can be identified, that it may not be practical or cost-effective to eliminate or mitigate certain risks, that it may be necessary for the Funds to bear certain risks (such as investment-related risks) to achieve their goals, and that the processes, procedures and controls employed to address certain risks may be limited in their effectiveness. Moreover, reports received by the Trustees as to risk management matters are typically summaries of the relevant information. As a result of the foregoing and other factors, each Existing Board’s risk management oversight is subject to inherent limitations. Officers of the Trusts The officers of each Trust, their ages and their principal occupations during the past five years (their titles may have varied during that period) are set forth in Appendix G. 22
Shareholder Approval The votes of each Fund in the same Trust will be counted together with respect to the election of the Nominees to the Combined Board and the shareholders of each Fund will vote together as a single class with the shareholders of all other Funds that are series of the same Trust. The election of Nominees to the Combined Board must be approved by a plurality of the votes cast at each Meeting at which a quorum exists. If not enough proxies or votes have been received from shareholders of a Trust to achieve quorum and approve Proposal 1 by the time of the Meeting, the Meeting may be postponed or adjourned with respect to one or more Trusts to permit further solicitation of proxies, or for the applicable Existing Board to consider alternate steps. If the shareholders of a Trust do not ultimately approve Proposal 1, the applicable Existing Board will continue to oversee the affected Trust as they currently do pending any further action by the applicable Existing Board. Your Board recommends that you vote “FOR” the election of each of the Nominees to the Combined Board. INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM The Trustees, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, of each Trust have selected PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (“PwC”) as the independent registered public accounting firm for the Funds. No representatives of PwC will be present at the Meeting. Appendix H sets forth for each Fund, for each of the applicable Fund’s two most recent fiscal years, the fees billed by the Fund’s independent registered public accounting firm for all audit and non-audit services provided directly to the Fund and each Fund’s fiscal year end month and day.

The charter of Existing Board 2’s Audit Committee requires that the Audit Committee pre-approve the engagement of each Fund’s independent auditors to perform audit and any permissible non-audit services for the Fund, doesand, as the Committee deems appropriate, establish and oversee policies and procedures for the pre-approval of such services to a Fund, and review the fees charged to each Fund by 24
the independent auditors for audit and non-audit services. Existing Board 2’s Audit Committee charter further requires that the Audit Committee pre-approve the engagement of each Fund’s independent auditors to perform any permissible non-audit services for the Fund’s investment adviser(s) and any entity controlling, controlled by or under common control with the investment adviser(s) if the engagement relates directly to the operations and financial reporting of the Fund, and, as the Committee deems appropriate, to establish and oversee policies and procedures for the pre-approval of such services. Existing Board 2’s Audit Committee Charter provides that the Committee Chair, or in the event of his or her unavailability, another member of the Committee, is authorized to pre-approve on the Committee’s behalf any matter requiring pre-approval by the Committee, provided that any such approval shall be recorded in writing and reported to the Committee no later than the next regular quarterly meeting. For each Fund’s two most recent fiscal years, there were no services rendered by PwC to the Funds for which the pre-approval requirement was waived. Non-audit fees billed for services rendered to each Fund and each Fund’s manager or any entity controlling, controlled by or under common control with the manager that provides ongoing services to the Funds during the last two fiscal years is presented in Appendix H under the caption “Aggregate Non-Audit Fees for Services Provided to Each Fund and its Affiliated Service Providers Pre-Approved by the Audit Committee.” Each Audit Committee has considered whether the provision of non-audit services that were rendered by PwC to a Fund’s manager and Covered Service Providers that were not pre-approved (not requiring pre-approval) is compatible with maintaining such auditor’s independence. All services provided by PwC to each Fund, its manager or Covered Service Providers that were required to be pre-approved were pre-approved as required.

Information for the Most Recent Year* regarding compensation paid to the Trustees of Existing Board 1 by the Funds is set forth below. The Independent Trustees of Existing Board 1 receive an annual retainer plus fees for attending each regularly scheduled Board meeting and special Board meeting he or she attends in person or by telephone. The Independent Trustees of Existing Board 1 are also reimbursed for all out-of-pocket expenses relating to attendance at such meetings. Those Independent Trustees who serve in leadership positions of Existing Board 1, as well as each committee member, receive additional compensation. All such fees paid to the Independent Trustees of Existing Board 1 are aggregate fees for serving on the combined Board of Trustees of the Trusts listed above and such fees are allocated among the Funds according to the average annual net assets of each Fund comprising such Trusts and ActiveShares® ETF Trust and Legg Mason ETF Investment Trust. Existing Board 1 reviews the level of Trustee compensation periodically and Trustee compensation may change from time to time. Ms. Jane Trust, an “interested person” (as defined in the 1940 Act) of the Funds, does not receive compensation from the Funds, but may be reimbursed for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses relating to attendance at such meetings. * The term “Most Recent Year,” when used in this Appendix C, refers to the calendar year ended December 31, 2020, which coincides with the last fiscal year of certain of the Funds, as shown in Appendix H. The disclosure of compensation paid to Trustees by all Funds for the Most Recent Year rather than, in certain instances, a Fund’s most recent fiscal year, is provided for ease of presentation and comprehension. The compensation structure for Trustees of all Funds, generally a yearly fee plus fees per meeting attended, has not been altered since the periods covered, but compensation of Trustees varies from period to period depending on the number of meetings attended. The Funds whose fiscal years do not coincide with the calendar year do not believe that the compensation of any of their Trustees would be materially greater if disclosed for the most recent fiscal years, after taking into account the number of meetings held in each period.

Johnson is $198,825.61. 3 In addition to overseeing the Funds of Legg Mason Partners Equity Trust and Legg Mason Partners Variable Equity Trust, each Trustee also currently serves as a Trustee of the one fund of ActiveShares® ETF Trust and the nine funds of Legg Mason ETF Investment Trust. Concurrently with issuance of this proxy statement, shareholders of the nine funds of Legg Mason ETF Investment Trust are being asked to elect a new slate of trustees consisting of Trustees who currently oversee the Franklin Templeton family of ETFs (the “New Legg Mason ETF Trustees”). In addition, shareholders of the one fund of ActiveShares® ETF Trust are also being asked to elect the New Legg Mason ETF Trustees. The Trustees of Existing Board 1 will not continue as Trustees of ActiveShares® ETF Trust or Legg Mason ETF Investment Trust if the New Legg Mason ETF Trustees are elected and take office. None of the Funds currently provides any pension or retirement benefits to Trustees of Existing Board 1 or officers. As of February 12, 2021, all Trustees of Existing Board 1 and officers as a group owned less than 1% of the outstanding shares of each Fund.

Appendix E Standing Committees of the Existing Boards The business and affairs of each Trust are managed by or under the direction of its Board. Audit Committee. Each Existing Board has a standing Audit Committee comprised of all of its Trustees who are Independent Trustees. The current Audit Committee members of Existing Board 1 are: Andrew L. Breech (Chair), Paul R. Ades, Althea L. Duersten, Stephen R. Gross, Susan M. Heilbron, Howard J. Johnson, Jerome H. Miller, Ken Miller and Thomas F. Schlafly. The current Audit Committee members of Existing Board 2 are: Ruby P. Hearn,1 Arnold L. Lehman, Robin J.W. Masters, Jill E. McGovern,1 Arthur S. Mehlman (Chair),1 G. Peter O’Brien, S. Ford Rowan1 and Robert M. Tarola1 (Vice Chair). The primary purposes of each Board’s Audit Committee are to assist the Board in fulfilling its responsibility for oversight of the integrity of the accounting, auditing and financial reporting practices of the Trust, the quality of each Fund’s financial statements and the independent audit thereof, the qualifications and independence of the Trust’s independent registered public accounting firm, and the Trust’s compliance with legal and regulatory requirements. The Audit Committee acts as liaison between the Trust’s independent auditor and the Board. The Audit Committee reviews the scope of the Trust’s audit, accounting and financial reporting policies and practices and internal controls. The Audit Committee approves, and recommends to the Independent Trustees for their ratification, the selection, appointment, retention or termination of the Trust’s independent registered public accounting firms. The Audit Committee also approves all audit and permissible non-audit services provided by the Trust’s independent registered public accounting firm to the Fund’s manager and any affiliated service providers if the engagement relates directly to a Trust’s operations and financial reporting. During the Most Recent Year, the Audit Committee of Board 1 met four times, and the Audit Committee of Board 2 met three times. Governance and Nominating Committees. Each Existing Board has standing governance and nominating committees. As discussed below, Existing Board 1 has a Governance Committee, which has formed a Compensation and Nominating sub-Committee. Existing Board 2 has a committee that is called the Nominating and Governance Committee. Existing Board 1 has a standing Governance Committee comprising all of its Trustees who are Independent Trustees. The current Governance Committee members of Existing Board 1 are: Paul R. Ades, Andrew L. Breech, Althea L. Duersten (Chair), 1 Current Trustee of Existing Board 2 whose term of office as a Trustee will not continue once the Combined Board takes office on or about July 1, 2021. Drs. Hearn and McGovern and Messrs. Mehlman, Rowan and Tarola are retiring from service as Trustees of the Funds. E-1
Stephen R. Gross, Susan M. Heilbron, Howard J. Johnson, Jerome H. Miller, Ken Miller and Thomas F. Schlafly. The Governance Committee is charged with overseeing Board governance and related Trustee practices, including selecting and nominating persons for election or appointment by the Board as Trustees of the Trust. The Governance Committee has formed the Compensation and Nominating sub-Committee, which is responsible for, among other things, selecting and recommending candidates to fill vacancies on the Board. The current members of the Compensation and Nominating sub-Committee of Board 1 are: Paul R. Ades, Andrew L. Breech, Howard J. Johnson, Ken Miller (Chair) and Thomas F. Schlafly. The Governance Committee of Board 1 met four times in the Most Recent Year. The Compensation and Nominating sub-Committee of Board 1 met one time in the Most Recent Year. The Governance Committee of Board 1 and the Compensation and Nominating sub-Committee of Board 1 are hereinafter referred to collectively as the “Governance and Nominating Committee of Board 1.” Existing Board 2 has a standing committee, called the Nominating and Governance Committee, comprising all of its Trustees who are Independent Trustees. The current Nominating and Governance Committee members of Existing Board 2 are: Ruby P. Hearn,1 Arnold L. Lehman, Robin J.W. Masters, Jill E. McGovern (Co-Chair),1 Arthur S. Mehlman,1 G. Peter O’Brien (Co-Chair), S. Ford Rowan1 and Robert M. Tarola1. The Nominating and Governance Committee is responsible for, among other things, reviewing and nominating candidates for positions as Trustees and to fill vacancies on the Board. The Nominating and Governance Committee of Board 2 met one time in the Most Recent Year. The Nominating and Governance Committee of Board 2 is hereinafter referred to as the “Governance and Nominating Committee of Board 2.” Each Governance and Nominating Committee may consider nominees recommended by a shareholder. Shareholders who wish to recommend a nominee should send recommendations to the Trusts’ Secretary that include all information relating to such person that is required to be disclosed in solicitations of proxies for the election of Trustees as described in the Governance and Nominating Committee charter for each Trust found in Appendix F. A recommendation must be accompanied by a written consent of the individual to stand for election if nominated by the Board and to serve if elected by the shareholders. A copy of the Governance and Nominating Committee charter for each Trust is included in Appendix F. The Governance and Nominating Committees’ charters are not currently made available on the Funds’ websites. Each Governance and Nominating Committee also identifies potential nominees through its network of contacts and may also engage, if it deems appropriate, a professional search firm. The Committee meets to discuss and consider such candidates’ qualifications for Board membership and their independence from each Fund’s investment adviser and other principal service providers and then chooses a candidate by majority vote. None of the Governance and Nominating Committees has specific, minimum qualifications for nominees. None of the Governance and E-2
Nominating Committees has established specific qualities or skills that it regards as necessary for one or more of the Trustees to possess (other than any qualities or skills that may be required by applicable law, regulation or listing standard). However, in evaluating a person as a potential nominee to serve as a Trustee, the Governance and Nominating Committee of Existing Board 1 may consider the following factors, among any others it may deem relevant: whether or not the person is an “interested person,” as defined in the 1940 Act, and whether the person is otherwise qualified under applicable laws and regulations to serve as a Trustee; whether or not the person has any relationships that might impair his or her independence, such as any business, financial or family relationships with Fund management, the investment adviser, service providers or their affiliates; whether or not the person serves on boards of, or is otherwise affiliated with, competing financial service organizations or their related mutual fund complexes; whether or not the person is willing to serve, and willing and able to commit the time necessary for the performance of the duties of a Trustee; the contribution which the person can make to the Board (or, if the person has previously served as a Trustee, the contribution which the person made to the Board during his or her previous term of service), with consideration being given to the person’s business and professional experience, education and such other factors as the Committee may consider relevant; the character and integrity of the person; and whether or not the selection and nomination of the person would be consistent with the requirements of the retirement policies of the Trust, as applicable. In evaluating a person as a potential nominee to serve as a Trustee, the Governance and Nominating Committee of Existing Board 2 shall consider the effect of any relationships delineated in the 1940 Act or other types of relationships, e.g., business, financial or family relationships with the investment adviser(s) or other principal service providers, which might impair independence. In determining candidates’ qualifications for Board membership, the Governance and Nominating Committee of Board 2 may consider all factors it may determine to be relevant to fulfilling the role of being a member of the Board. The Existing Boards have additional standing committees, as follows: Existing Board 1 Existing Board 1 has a Contract Committee that is charged with assisting the Board in requesting and evaluating such information from each Fund’s manager and E-3
the subadviser(s) as may reasonably be necessary to evaluate the terms of the Fund’s investment management agreement, subadvisory arrangements and distribution arrangements. The current Contract Committee members are: Paul R. Ades, Susan M. Heilbron (Chair) and Ken Miller. During the Most Recent Year, the Contract Committee met one time. Existing Board 1 has a Performance Committee that is charged with assisting the Board in carrying out its oversight responsibilities over the Fund and fund management with respect to investment management, objectives, strategies, policies and procedures, performance and performance benchmarks, and the applicable risk management process. The current Performance Committee members are: Althea L. Duersten, Howard J. Johnson, Jerome H. Miller (Chair), Thomas F. Schlafly and Jane Trust (ex-officio). During the Most Recent Year, the Performance Committee met four times. Existing Board 2 Existing Board 2 has an Independent Trustees Committee, the purposes of which are (i) to review the Trust’s advisory, subadvisory and distribution arrangements and Rule 12b-1 Plans and related agreements in accordance with the 1940 Act; (ii) to assist the Independent Trustees in carrying out their responsibilities pursuant to Rule 38a-1 under the 1940 Act; (iii) to assist the Independent Trustees in fulfilling their responsibilities pursuant to Rule 0-1 under the 1940 Act; (iv) to provide Independent Trustees an opportunity to exchange views and formulate positions separately from management; and (v) to oversee issues related to the Independent Trustees that are not specifically delegated to another Board Committee. The current members of the Independent Trustees Committee are: Ruby P. Hearn,1 Arnold L. Lehman (Board Chair), Robin J.W. Masters, Jill E. McGovern,1 Arthur S. Mehlman,1 G. Peter O’Brien, S. Ford Rowan1 and Robert M. Tarola1. During the Most Recent Year, the Independent Trustees Committee met eight times. Committee Structure of Combined Board The Existing Boards expect that, if the Nominees are elected, the Combined Board will maintain the standing committees of Existing Board 1 (the Audit Committee, the Governance Committee, the Compensation and Nominating Committee, the Contract Committee and the Performance Committee), comprising some or all of the Independent Trustees, with the functions and responsibilities described above. The Combined Board could choose to adopt a different committee structure or to modify its committee structure, or any other aspect of its governance structure, at any time. E-4
Appendix F Governance and Nomination Committee Charters (Existing Board 1) Governance Committee Charter Establishment and Purpose This document serves as the Charter for the Governance Committee (the “Committee”) of the Board of each registered investment company (the “Trust”) listed in Appendix A hereto and each series thereof (each, a “Fund”). The primary purposes of the Committee are to | (a) | select and nominate persons for election or appointment by the Board as Trustees of the Trust; |
| (b) | oversee Board governance and related Trustee practices; and |
| (c) | evaluate and make recommendations to the Board to enhance the performance of the Board. |
Duties and Responsibilities The Committee shall: | 1. | Consider standards or qualifications for Independent Trustee nominees and identify and evaluate individuals believed to be qualified to become Independent Trustees of the Fund. |
| 2. | Recommend to the Board nominees for election or appointment. |
| 3. | Consider and periodically make recommendations to the Board on matters concerning Board governance and performance, and related matters. In this regard, the Committee will coordinate, with the assistance of fund and Independent Trustee counsel, a self-assessment, to be conducted by the full Board at least annually, covering at least the matters required by applicable law. |
| 4. | Consider and periodically make recommendations to the Board regarding Trustee practices and matters, including compensation, insurance arrangements and retirement. |
The Committee may also carry out any other duties or responsibilities delegated to the Committee by the Board from time to time. The Committee shall have the resources and authority appropriate to discharge its responsibilities, including the authority to retain, as it deems necessary to carry out its duties, special counsel and other experts or consultants at the expense of the Fund. The Fund shall provide appropriate funding, as determined by the Committee, for the Committee to carry out its duties and its responsibilities, including (a) for payment of F-1
compensation to any outside legal, accounting or other advisors, counsel or consultants employed by the Committee and (b) for the ordinary administrative expenses of the Committee. In performing its duties, the Committee shall consult as it deems appropriate with the members of the Board, officers and employees of the Fund, the Fund’s investment manager, the Fund’s sub-adviser(s), if any, the Fund’s counsel, counsel to the Independent Trustees and the Fund’s other service providers. Evaluation of Potential Nominees In evaluating a person as a potential nominee to serve as a Trustee of the Trust, the Committee should consider among other factors it may deem relevant: whether or not the person is an “interested person” as that term is defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), and whether the person is otherwise qualified under applicable laws and regulations to serve as a Trustee of the Trust; whether or not the person has any relationships that might impair his or her independence, such as any business, financial or family relationships with management, the investment manager of the Fund, other Fund service providers or their affiliates; whether or not the person serves on boards of, or is otherwise affiliated with, competing financial service organizations or their related mutual fund complexes; whether or not the person is willing to serve, and willing and able to commit the time necessary for the performance of the duties of a Trustee of the Trust; the contribution which the person can make to the Board and the Trust (or, if the person has previously served as a Trustee of the Trust, the contribution which the person made to the Board during his or her previous term of service), with consideration being given to the person’s business and professional experience and education and such other factors as the Committee may consider relevant; the character and integrity of the person; and whether or not the selection and nomination of the person would be consistent with the requirements of the Trust’s retirement policies. While the Committee is solely responsible for the selection and nomination of Trustees, the Committee may consider nominees recommended by Fund shareholders as it deems appropriate.
