IMPORTANT NOTESTO PERFORMANCE INFORMATION

Performance data is historical and cannot predict or guarantee future results. Principal value and investment return will fluctuate with market conditions, and you may have a gain or loss when you withdraw your money. Inception dates of the funds may have preceded the effective dates of the subaccounts, contracts, or their availability in all states.

When reviewing the index comparisons, please keep in mind that indexes have a number of inherent performance differentials over the funds. First, unlike the funds, which must hold a minimum amount of cash to maintain liquidity, indexes do not have a cash component. Second, the funds are actively managed and, thus, are subject to management fees to cover salaries of securities analysts or portfolio managers in addition to other expenses. Indexes are unmanaged and do not include any commissions or other expenses typically associated with investing in securities. Third, indexes often contain a different mix of securities than the fund to which they are compared. Additionally, please remember that indexes are simply a measure of performance and cannot be invested in directly.

TEMPLETON DEVELOPING MARKETS SECURITIES FUND

This semiannual report for Templeton Developing Markets Securities Fund covers the period ended June 30, 2012.

Performance Summary as of 6/30/12

Templeton Developing Markets Securities Fund – Class 3 delivered a +0.25% total return for the six-month period ended 6/30/12.

Performance reflects the Fund’s Class 3 operating expenses, but does not include any contract fees, expenses or sales charges. If they had been included, performance would be lower. These charges and deductions, particularly for variable life policies, can have a significant effect on contract values and insurance benefits. See the contract prospectus for a complete description of these expenses, including sales charges.

TD-1

Fund Goal and Main Investments: Templeton Developing Markets Securities Fund seeks long-term capital appreciation. Under normal market conditions, the Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets in emerging market investments.

Performance Overview

You can find the Fund’s six-month total return in the Performance Summary. In comparison, the MSCI Emerging Markets (EM) Index posted a +4.12% total return, and the Standard & Poor’s^®/International Finance Corporation Investable Composite Index had a +4.48% total return for the same period.¹ Please note index performance numbers are for reference and we do not attempt to track an index but rather undertake investments on the basis of fundamental research.

Economic and Market Overview

Emerging market economies generally continued to grow faster than developed market economies during the six months under review. Emerging market stocks had a solid start to 2012 as improved economic data, government and central bank efforts to stimulate growth and substantial investment inflows drove market performance. The European Union’s approval of a second bailout package for Greece and the European Central Bank’s additional issuance of low interest loans to the region’s banks worth more than 529 billion euros (approximately US$700 billion) to ease the credit crunch and contain the debt crisis provided investors with additional reasons to remain positive.

The tide changed in April, however, as it became evident the eurozone sovereign debt crisis was far from contained. Record-high unemployment in the region, speculation on Greece’s exit from the European Union and concerns about Spanish banks’ solvency worsened. Weaker-than-expected U.S. economic data raised fears of another recession in the world’s largest economy. Major emerging economies including China and India reported slowing gross domestic product growth. News that the Chinese government had no plans to implement a wide-scale stimulus package also weighed on investor confidence.

Global stock prices rebounded in the first three weeks of June as optimism on the victory of the pro-bailout New Democracy party in Greece

Fund Risks: All investments involve risks, including possible loss of principal. Stock prices fluctuate, sometimes rapidly and dramatically, due to factors affecting individual companies, particular industries or sectors, or general market conditions. Value securities may not increase in price as anticipated, or may decline further in value. Risks associated with foreign investing include currency fluctuations, economic instability and political developments. Investments in developing markets involve heightened risks related to the same factors, in addition to those associated with these markets’ smaller size and lesser liquidity. The Fund may focus on particular sectors of the market from time to time, which can carry greater risks of adverse developments in such sectors. Smaller or midsized companies can be particularly sensitive to changing economic conditions, and their prospects for growth are less certain than those of larger, more established companies. The Fund is designed for the aggressive portion of a well-diversified portfolio. The Fund is actively managed but there is no guarantee that the manager’s investment decisions will produce the desired results. The Fund’s prospectus also includes a description of the main investment risks.

TD-2

and expectations of a third quantitative easing (QE3) program from the U.S. Federal Reserve Board (Fed) fueled stock market performance. However, sentiment turned sour as investors focused on Spain’s banking crisis and the Fed’s decision to extend the maturity extension program, dubbed Operation Twist, rather than to implement QE3.

Financial markets received good news on the last trading day of June when European leaders agreed to directly recapitalize the region’s struggling banks and work toward budgetary and political union. Global stocks rallied, leading emerging market stocks, as measured by the MSCI EM Index, to post a +4.12% total return in U.S. dollar terms for the six-month period.¹

Investment Strategy

We employ a fundamental research, value-oriented, long-term investment approach. We focus on the market price of a company’s securities relative to our evaluation of its long-term earnings, asset value and cash flow potential. We also consider a company’s profit and loss outlook, balance sheet strength, cash flow trends and asset value in relation to the current price. Our analysis considers the company’s corporate governance behavior as well as its position in its sector, the economic framework and political environment. We invest in securities without regard to benchmark comparisons.

Manager’s Discussion

During the six months under review, key contributors to the Fund’s absolute performance were Souza Cruz, a major Brazilian cigarette company; Brazil-based AmBev (Companhia de Bebidas das Americas), one of the world’s largest beer and soft drink producers; and Kasikornbank, one of Thailand’s leading commercial banks. The strong market positions of Souza Cruz and AmBev have allowed their businesses to achieve superior returns and build market share as consumers become wealthier and more discerning. In our view, these companies have strong operations, low debt levels, good dividend yields and popular brands that make them attractive investments. We believe Kasikornbank is well positioned to benefit from Thailand’s potentially strong economic growth as the country recovers from last year’s floods and the government’s fiscal stimulus measures, including minimum wage increases, work through the economy. The bank enjoyed strong earnings in the first half of 2012 as it benefited from strong loan growth.

TD-3

In contrast, key detractors from absolute performance during the reporting period included Itau Unibanco Holding, one of Brazil’s largest financial conglomerates; Luk Fook Holdings (International), a major jewelry retail chain in Hong Kong and mainland China; and Astra International, Indonesia’s leading car and motorcycle company. Itau Unibanco’s share price weakened as ongoing central bank interest rate cuts threatened to hurt the bank’s profit margins. In our long-term view, the bank could benefit from its strong market position as Brazil’s economy grows and consumer wealth increases. Luk Fook’s sales growth eased recently as China’s slowing economic growth led Chinese tourists to cut spending on luxury items such as jewelry. However, we maintained a positive view of the company because we feel it has a solid market position, high return on equity, strong balance sheet and increasing presence in mainland China. Astra’s share price corrected largely due to investor expectations that new rules in Indonesia, which increased the minimum down payment required for vehicle purchases, could impact sales. As a leader in the Indonesian car and motorcycle markets, which have been enjoying strong secular growth trends, Astra could benefit from the potential continuation of the country’s robust economic growth, higher incomes and affordable credit in the long term.

It is important to recognize the effect of currency movements on the Fund’s performance. In general, if the value of the U.S. dollar goes up compared with a foreign currency, an investment traded in that foreign currency will go down in value because it will be worth fewer U.S. dollars. This can have a negative effect on Fund performance. Conversely, when the U.S. dollar weakens in relation to a foreign currency, an investment traded in that foreign currency will increase in value, which can contribute to Fund performance. For the six months ended June 30, 2012, the U.S. dollar rose in value relative to many currencies in which the Fund’s investments were traded. As a result, the Fund’s performance was negatively affected by the portfolio’s investment predominantly in securities with non-U.S. currency exposure.

In the past six months, we initiated positions in Colombia and Kenya and increased our holdings in Hong Kong, South Africa and South Korea as we continued to search for what we considered to be attractive investment opportunities. We added to casinos and gaming, catalog retail and specialty retail companies. Key purchases included additional shares of SJM Holdings, one of Macau’s largest casino operators, and the aforementioned Luk Fook, as well as a new position in South Korea-based Samsung Electronics, one of the world’s largest electronics manufacturers.

Fund Expenses

As an investor in a variable insurance contract (Contract) that indirectly provides for investment in an underlying mutual fund, you can incur transaction and/or ongoing expenses at both the Fund level and the Contract level.

•

Transaction expenses can include sales charges (loads) on purchases, redemption fees, surrender fees, transfer fees and premium taxes.

•

Ongoing expenses can include management fees, distribution and service (12b-1) fees, contract fees, annual maintenance fees, mortality and expense risk fees and other fees and expenses. All mutual funds and Contracts have some types of ongoing expenses.

The expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight ongoing expenses at the Fund level only and do not include ongoing expenses at the Contract level, or transaction expenses at either the Fund or Contract levels. While the Fund does not have transaction expenses, if the transaction and ongoing expenses at the Contract level were included, the expenses shown below would be higher. You should consult your Contract prospectus or disclosure document for more information.

The table shows Fund-level ongoing expenses and can help you understand these expenses and compare them with those of other mutual funds offered through the Contract. The table assumes a $1,000 investment held for the six months indicated. Please refer to the Fund prospectus for additional information on operating expenses.

Actual Fund Expenses

The first line (Actual) of the table provides actual account values and expenses. The “Ending Account Value” is derived from the Fund’s actual return, which includes the effect of ongoing Fund expenses, but does not include the effect of ongoing Contract expenses.

You can estimate the Fund-level expenses you incurred during the period by following these steps. Of course, your account value and expenses will differ from those in this illustration:

1.	Divide your account value by $1,000.

If an account had an $8,600 value, then $8,600 ÷ $1,000 = 8.6.

2.	Multiply the result by the number under the heading “Fund-Level Expenses Incurred During Period.”

If Fund-Level Expenses Incurred During Period were $7.50, then 8.6 x $7.50 = $64.50.

In this illustration, the estimated expenses incurred this period at the Fund level are $64.50.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison with Other Mutual Funds

Information in the second line (Hypothetical) of the table can help you compare ongoing expenses of the Fund with those of other mutual funds offered through the Contract. This information may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you incurred during the period. The hypothetical “Ending Account Value” is based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed 5% annual rate of return before expenses, which does not represent the Fund’s actual return. The figure under the heading “Fund-Level Expenses Incurred During Period” shows the hypothetical expenses your account would have incurred under this scenario. You can compare this figure with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in shareholder reports of other funds offered through a Contract.


Class 3	Beginning Account Value 1/1/12		Ending Account Value 6/30/12		Fund-Level Expenses Incurred During Period* 1/1/12–6/30/12
Actual	$	1,000	$	1,002.50	$	7.97
Hypothetical (5% return before expenses)	$	1,000	$	1,016.91	$	8.02

*Expenses are calculated using the most recent six-month annualized expense ratio for the Fund’s Class 3 shares (1.60%), which does not include any ongoing expenses of the Contract for which the Fund is an investment option, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 182/366 to reflect the one-half year period.

Templeton Developing Markets Securities Fund

1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Franklin Templeton Variable Insurance Products Trust (Trust) is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, (1940 Act) as an open-end investment company, consisting of twenty separate funds. The Templeton Developing Markets Securities Fund (Fund) is included in this report. The financial statements of the remaining funds in the Trust are presented separately. Shares of the Fund are generally sold only to insurance company separate accounts to fund the benefits of variable life insurance policies or variable annuity contracts. The Fund offers four classes of shares: Class 1, Class 2, Class 3, and Class 4. Each class of shares differs by its distribution fees, voting rights on matters affecting a single class and its exchange privilege.

The following summarizes the Fund’s significant accounting policies.

a. Financial Instrument Valuation

The Fund’s investments in financial instruments are carried at fair value daily. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Under procedures approved by the Trust’s Board of Trustees (the Board), the Fund’s administrator, investment manager and other affiliates have formed the Valuation and Liquidity Oversight Committee (VLOC). The VLOC provides administration and oversight of the Fund’s valuation policies and procedures, which are approved annually by the Board. Among other things, these procedures allow the Fund to utilize independent pricing services, quotations from securities and financial instrument dealers, and other market sources to determine fair value.

Equity securities and exchange traded funds listed on an exchange or on the NASDAQ National Market System are valued at the last quoted sale price or the official closing price of the day, respectively. Foreign equity securities are valued as of the close of trading on the foreign stock exchange on which the security is primarily traded, or the NYSE, whichever is earlier. The value is then converted into its U.S. dollar equivalent at the foreign exchange rate in effect at the close of the NYSE on the day that the value of the security is determined. Over-the-counter securities are valued within the range of the most recent quoted bid and ask prices. Securities that trade in multiple markets or on multiple exchanges are valued according to the broadest and most representative market. Certain equity securities are valued based upon fundamental characteristics or relationships to similar securities. Investments in open-end mutual funds and non-registered money market funds are valued at the closing net asset value.

The Fund has procedures to determine the fair value of financial instruments for which market prices are not reliable or readily available. Under these procedures, the VLOC convenes on a regular basis to review such financial instruments and considers a number of factors, including significant unobservable valuation inputs, when arriving at fair value. The VLOC primarily employs a market-based approach which may use related or comparable assets or liabilities, recent transactions, market multiples, book values, and other relevant information for the investment to determine the fair value of the investment. An income-based valuation approach may also be used in which the anticipated future cash flows of the investment are discounted to calculate fair value. Discounts may also be applied due to the nature or duration of any restrictions on the disposition of the investments. Due to the inherent uncertainty of valuations of such investments, the fair values may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had an active market existed. The VLOC employs various methods for calibrating these valuation approaches including a regular review of key inputs and assumptions, transactional back-testing or disposition analysis, and reviews of any related market activity.

Trading in securities on foreign securities stock exchanges and over-the-counter markets may be completed before the daily close of business on the NYSE. Occasionally, events occur between the time at which trading in a foreign security is completed and the close of the NYSE that might call into question the reliability of the value of a portfolio security held by the Fund. As a result, differences may arise between the value of the Fund’s portfolio securities as determined at the foreign market close and the latest indications of value at the close of the NYSE. In order to minimize the potential for these differences, the VLOC monitors price movements following the close of trading in foreign stock markets through a series of country specific market proxies (such as baskets of American Depositary Receipts, futures contracts and exchange traded funds). These price movements are measured

a. Financial Instrument Valuation (continued)

against established trigger thresholds for each specific market proxy to assist in determining if an event has occurred that may call into question the reliability of the values of the foreign securities held by the Fund. If such an event occurs, the securities may be valued using fair value procedures, which may include the use of independent pricing services.

b. Foreign Currency Translation

Portfolio securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars based on the exchange rate of such currencies against U.S. dollars on the date of valuation. The Fund may enter into foreign currency exchange contracts to facilitate transactions denominated in a foreign currency. Purchases and sales of securities, income and expense items denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate in effect on the transaction date. Portfolio securities and assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies contain risks that those currencies will decline in value relative to the U.S. dollar. Occasionally, events may impact the availability or reliability of foreign exchange rates used to convert the U.S. dollar equivalent value. If such an event occurs, the foreign exchange rate will be valued at fair value using procedures established and approved by the Board.

The Fund does not separately report the effect of changes in foreign exchange rates from changes in market prices on securities held. Such changes are included in net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments on the Statement of Operations.

Realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from sales of foreign currencies, currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions and the difference between the recorded amounts of dividends, interest, and foreign withholding taxes and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses arise from changes in foreign exchange rates on foreign denominated assets and liabilities other than investments in securities held at the end of the reporting period.

c. Securities Lending

The Fund participates in an agency based securities lending program. The fund receives cash collateral against the loaned securities in an amount equal to at least 102% of the market value of the loaned securities. Collateral is maintained over the life of the loan in an amount not less than 100% of the market value of loaned securities, as determined at the close of fund business each day; any additional collateral required due to changes in security values is delivered to the fund on the next business day. The collateral is invested in a non-registered money fund as indicated on the Statement of Investments. The fund receives income from the investment of cash collateral, in addition to lending fees and rebates paid by the borrower. The fund bears the market risk with respect to the collateral investment, securities loaned, and the risk that the agent may default on its obligations to the fund. The securities lending agent has agreed to indemnify the fund in the event of default by a third party borrower.

d. Income and Deferred Taxes

It is the Fund’s policy to qualify as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code. The Fund intends to distribute to shareholders substantially all of its taxable income and net realized gains to relieve it from federal income and if applicable, excise taxes. As a result, no provision for U.S. federal income taxes is required.

The Fund may be subject to foreign taxation related to income received, capital gains on the sale of securities and certain foreign currency transactions in the foreign jurisdictions in which it invests. Foreign taxes, if any, are recorded based on the tax regulations and rates that exist in the foreign markets in which the Fund invests. When a capital gain tax is determined to apply the Fund records an estimated deferred tax liability in an amount that would be payable if the securities were disposed of on the valuation date.

d. Income and Deferred Taxes (continued)

The Fund recognizes the tax benefits of uncertain tax positions only when the position is “more likely than not” to be sustained upon examination by the tax authorities based on the technical merits of the tax position. As of June 30, 2012, and for all open tax years, the Fund has determined that no liability for unrecognized tax benefits is required in the Fund’s financial statements related to uncertain tax positions taken on a tax return (or expected to be taken on future tax returns). Open tax years are those that remain subject to examination and are based on each tax jurisdiction statute of limitation.

e. Security Transactions, Investment Income, Expenses and Distributions

Security transactions are accounted for on trade date. Realized gains and losses on security transactions are determined on a specific identification basis. Estimated expenses are accrued daily. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date except that certain dividends from foreign securities are recognized as soon as the Fund is notified of the ex-dividend date. Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date and are determined according to income tax regulations (tax basis). Distributable earnings determined on a tax basis may differ from earnings recorded in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These differences may be permanent or temporary. Permanent differences are reclassified among capital accounts to reflect their tax character. These reclassifications have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. Temporary differences are not reclassified, as they may reverse in subsequent periods.

Common expenses incurred by the Trust are allocated among the funds based on the ratio of net assets of each fund to the combined net assets of the Trust. Fund specific expenses are charged directly to the fund that incurred the expense.

Realized and unrealized gains and losses and net investment income, not including class specific expenses, are allocated daily to each class of shares based upon the relative proportion of net assets of each class. Differences in per share distributions, by class, are generally due to differences in class specific expenses.

f. Accounting Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

g. Redemption Fees

Redemptions and exchanges of interests in an insurance company subaccount that invests in Class 3 shares of the Fund will be subject to a 1.0% short term trading fee if the interest in the subaccount has been held for less than 60 days. Such fees are retained by the Fund and accounted for as an addition to paid-in capital, allocated to each class of shares based upon the relative proportion of net assets of each class.

h. Guarantees and Indemnifications

Under the Trust’s organizational documents, its officers and trustees are indemnified by the Trust against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Trust. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Trust, on behalf of the Fund, enters into contracts with service providers that contain general indemnification clauses. The Trust’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Trust that have not yet occurred. Currently, the Trust expects the risk of loss to be remote.

The Fund invests in the Institutional Fiduciary Trust Money Market Portfolio (Sweep Money Fund), an open-end investment company managed by Franklin Advisers, Inc. (an affiliate of the investment manager). Management fees paid by the Fund are reduced on assets invested in the Sweep Money Fund, in an amount not to exceed the management and administrative fees paid by the Sweep Money Fund.

8. CONCENTRATION OF RISK

Investing in foreign securities may include certain risks and considerations not typically associated with investing in U.S. securities, such as fluctuating currency values and changing local and regional economic, political and social conditions, which may result in greater market volatility. In addition, certain foreign securities may not be as liquid as U.S. securities.

9. CREDIT FACILITY

The Fund, together with other U.S. registered and foreign investment funds (collectively, Borrowers), managed by Franklin Templeton Investments, are borrowers in a joint syndicated senior unsecured credit facility totaling $1.5 billion (Global Credit Facility) which matures on January 18, 2013. This Global Credit Facility provides a source of funds to the Borrowers for temporary and emergency purposes, including the ability to meet future unanticipated or unusually large redemption requests.

Under the terms of the Global Credit Facility, the Fund shall, in addition to interest charged on any borrowings made by the Fund and other costs incurred by the Fund, pay its share of fees and expenses incurred in connection with the implementation and maintenance of the Global Credit Facility, based upon its relative share of the aggregate net assets of all of the Borrowers, including an annual commitment fee of 0.08% based upon the unused portion of the Global Credit Facility, which is reflected in other expenses on the Statement of Operations. During the period ended June 30, 2012, the Fund did not use the Global Credit Facility.

10. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The Fund follows a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between market data obtained from independent sources (observable inputs) and the Fund’s own market assumptions (unobservable inputs). These inputs are used in determining the value of the Fund’s financial instruments and are summarized in the following fair value hierarchy:

•

Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical financial instruments

•

Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar financial instruments, interest rates, prepayment speed, credit risk, etc.)

•

Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of financial instruments)

The inputs or methodology used for valuing financial instruments are not an indication of the risk associated with investing in those financial instruments.

For movements between the levels within the fair value hierarchy, the Fund has adopted a policy of recognizing the transfers as of the date of the underlying event which caused the movement.

A summary of inputs used as of June 30, 2012, in valuing the Fund’s assets and liabilities carried at fair value, is as follows:


	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total

11. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In December 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2011-11, Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities. The amendments in the ASU enhance disclosures about offsetting of financial assets and liabilities to enable investors to understand the effect of these arrangements on a fund’s financial position. The ASU is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. The Fund believes the adoption of this ASU will not have a material impact on its financial statements.

12. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

The Fund has evaluated subsequent events through the issuance of the financial statements and determined that no events have occurred that require disclosure.

Tax Information (unaudited)

Templeton Developing Markets Securities Fund

At December 31, 2011, more than 50% of the Fund’s total assets were invested in securities of foreign issuers. In most instances, foreign taxes were withheld from income paid to the Fund on these investments. As shown in the table below, the Fund hereby reports to shareholders the foreign source income and foreign taxes paid, pursuant to Section 853 of the Internal Revenue Code. This written statement will allow shareholders of record on June 14, 2012, to treat their proportionate share of foreign taxes paid by the Fund as having been paid directly by them. The shareholder shall consider these amounts as foreign taxes paid in the tax year in which they receive the Fund distribution.

The following table provides a detailed analysis of foreign tax paid, and foreign source income as reported by the Fund, to Class 1, Class 2, Class 3, and Class 4 shareholders of record.


Class	Foreign Tax Paid Per Share		Foreign Source Income Per Share
Class 1	$	0.0339	$	0.2177
Class 2	$	0.0339	$	0.1876
Class 3	$	0.0339	$	0.1890
Class 4	$	0.0339	$	0.1695

Foreign Tax Paid Per Share (Column 1) is the amount per share available to you, as a tax credit (assuming you held your shares in the Fund for a minimum of 16 days during the 31-day period beginning 15 days before the ex-dividend date of the Fund’s distribution to which the foreign taxes relate), or, as a tax deduction.

Foreign Source Income Per Share (Column 2) is the amount per share of income dividends attributable to foreign securities held by the Fund, plus any foreign taxes withheld on these dividends.

Templeton Foreign Securities Fund – Class 3

Performance data represent past performance, which does not guarantee future results. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate, and you may have a gain or loss when you sell your shares.

Current performance may differ from figures shown.

TF-1

Fund Goal and Main Investments: Templeton Foreign Securities Fund seeks long-term capital growth. Under normal market conditions, the Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets in investments of issuers located outside the U.S., including those in emerging markets.

Performance Overview

You can find the Fund’s six-month total return in the Performance Summary. The Fund underperformed its benchmark, the MSCI Europe, Australasia, Far East (EAFE) Index, which produced a +3.38% total return for the same period.¹ Please note, index performance information is provided for reference and we do not attempt to track the index but rather undertake investments on the basis of fundamental research.

Economic and Market Overview

The six months under review encompassed two different market environments. The first quarter of 2012 delivered the best annual start for global developed stocks in more than a decade, as measured by the MSCI World Index, as signs of U.S. economic recovery and European policy relief underpinned a rally in cyclical stocks.² Yet, renewed global economic weakness and European debt concerns led the market lower in the second quarter, and stocks dropped sharply in the spring before additional policy action prompted a rebound in June. Politics largely drove the markets during the first half of 2012 as investors closely monitored developments in Europe, where German-led austerity demands were met with increasing resentment from some highly indebted eurozone members. Coalition-building efforts in Greece collapsed amid anger over the terms of the country’s second bailout, forcing a new election that brought some relief when the pro-euro party won. Elsewhere in the region, France’s socialist candidate clinched the presidency on a pro-growth platform and the Dutch cabinet resigned in the wake of a contentious austerity deal.

On the economic front, global growth trends generally moderated, led by Europe, which narrowly avoided recession mainly because of German export strength. Yet, even the more resilient economies of Germany, the U.S. and China showed signs of a slowdown at period-end. The combination of flagging growth, political uncertainty and populist unrest pressured investor confidence, and ratings agencies

Fund Risks: All investments involve risks, including possible loss of principal. Special risks are associated with foreign investing, including currency fluctuations, economic instability and political developments; investments in emerging markets involve heightened risks related to the same factors. To the extent the Fund focuses on particular countries, regions, industries, sectors or types of investment from time to time, it may be subject to greater risks of adverse developments in such areas of focus than a fund that invests in a wider variety of countries, regions, industries, sectors or investments. Current political uncertainty surrounding the European Union (EU) and its membership may increase market volatility. The financial instability of some countries in the EU, including Greece, Italy and Spain, together with the risk of that impacting other more stable countries, may increase the economic risk of investing in companies in Europe. The Fund is actively managed but there is no guarantee that the manager’s investment decisions will produce the desired results. The Fund’s prospectus also includes a description of the main investment risks.

TF-2

downgraded global banks and European sovereigns. Concerns about Italian and Spanish borrowing costs added to investor anxiety as bond yields climbed. Europe’s initial policy responses — including enhanced liquidity measures and an ineffective Spanish banking bailout — did little to address the structural imbalances of eurozone economies or the solvency fears plaguing the region’s banking system. Yet, encouraging progress did emerge at period-end when leaders in Brussels agreed to ease conditions of sovereign bond purchases and permit the region’s bailout fund to directly recapitalize banks. Meanwhile, the U.S. Federal Reserve Board opted to extend its strategy, dubbed Operation Twist, designed to lower systemically important interest rates, and the People’s Bank of China slashed interest rates for the first time since the global financial crisis began. In the latter part of the period, commodities extended recent losses, with oil falling back below $100, while the euro dipped and traditional safe havens like U.S. Treasuries, the U.S. dollar and the Japanese yen made gains.

Investment Strategy

Our investment philosophy is bottom up, value oriented and long term. In choosing investments, we generally focus on the market price of a company’s securities relative to our evaluation of the company’s potential long-term earnings, asset value and cash flow. Among factors we consider are a company’s historical value measures, including price/earnings ratio, profit margins and liquidation value. We do in-depth research to construct a bargain list from which we buy.

Manager’s Discussion

During the six months under review, underweighting and stock selection in the economically sensitive materials sector, which suffered from a global commodity price correction, was a major contributor to Fund performance relative to the MSCI EAFE Index.³ Beverage-can maker Rexam (U.K.) became a standout materials holding after agreeing to sell two of its personal care divisions in 2011. Our stock selection in information technology⁴aided relative results, particularly in two companies that benefited from global demand for smartphones and tablet PCs: South Korean semiconductor, telecommunication and digital media products manufacturer Samsung Electronics⁵ and integrated circuit and semiconductor devices company Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing.⁵

3. The materials sector comprises chemicals, construction and engineering, construction materials, containers and packaging, and metals and mining in the SOI.

4. The information technology sector comprises communications equipment; computers and peripherals; electronic equipment, instruments and components; semiconductors and semiconductor equipment; and software in the SOI.

TF-3

Business management software developer SAP (Germany) was another key sector holding. Other individual contributors included reinsurer Swiss Re, oil services company Aker Solutions (Norway) and automobile manufacturer Toyota Motor (Japan).

In contrast, our underweighting and stock selection in the consumer staples sector was a key detractor from Fund performance, and supermarket chain Tesco (U.K.) led the Fund’s sector losses due to slowing sales growth and falling margins.⁶ The Fund’s overweighting in telecommunication services⁷ also weighed on relative results, including our positions in telecommunication and Internet services providers China Telecom⁵ and Telefonica⁵ (Spain). Our stock selection in health care hurt performance, notably our position in Lonza Group (Switzerland).⁸ The chemicals and biotechnology company underperformed as profits were squeezed by rising raw materials prices and a strong Swiss franc. Other individual detractors included European financial services providers UniCredit (Spain) and Credit Suisse Group (Switzerland).

From a geographic perspective, our stock selection in Asia boosted the Fund’s relative performance, as a number of our investments in Singapore, South Korea⁵ and Japan outperformed. Our China exposure, however, was detrimental.⁵ In Europe, our stock selection detracted from results, as investor concerns about the eurozone debt crisis weighed on market sentiment. During the period, our investments in the U.K., France and the Netherlands hindered relative performance, while an underweighting in the troubled Spanish market benefited results.

Thank you for your participation in Templeton Foreign Securities Fund. We look forward to serving your future investment needs.

Fund Expenses

•

Transaction expenses can include sales charges (loads) on purchases, redemption fees, surrender fees, transfer fees and premium taxes.

•

Ongoing expenses can include management fees, distribution and service (12b-1) fees, contract fees, annual maintenance fees, mortality and expense risk fees and other fees and expenses. All mutual funds and Contracts have some types of ongoing expenses.

Actual Fund Expenses

You can estimate the Fund-level expenses you incurred during the period by following these steps. Of course, your account value and expenses will differ from those in this illustration:

1.	Divide your account value by $1,000.

If an account had an $8,600 value, then $8,600 ÷ $1,000 = 8.6.

2.	Multiply the result by the number under the heading “Fund-Level Expenses Incurred During Period.”

If Fund-Level Expenses Incurred During Period were $7.50, then 8.6 x $7.50 = $64.50.

In this illustration, the estimated expenses incurred this period at the Fund level are $64.50.

*Expenses are calculated using the most recent six-month annualized expense ratio for the Fund’s Class 3 shares (1.05%), which does not include any ongoing expenses of the Contract for which the Fund is an investment option, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 182/366 to reflect the one-half year period.

1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Franklin Templeton Variable Insurance Products Trust (Trust) is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, (1940 Act) as an open-end investment company, consisting of twenty separate funds. The Templeton Foreign Securities Fund (Fund) is included in this report. The financial statements of the remaining funds in the Trust are presented separately. Shares of the Fund are generally sold only to insurance company separate accounts to fund the benefits of variable life insurance policies or variable annuity contracts. The Fund offers four classes of shares: Class 1, Class 2, Class 3, and Class 4. Each class of shares differs by its distribution fees, voting rights on matters affecting a single class and its exchange privilege.

The following summarizes the Fund’s significant accounting policies.

a. Financial Instrument Valuation

Equity securities listed on an exchange or on the NASDAQ National Market System are valued at the last quoted sale price or the official closing price of the day, respectively. Foreign equity securities are valued as of the close of trading on the foreign stock exchange on which the security is primarily traded, or the NYSE, whichever is earlier. The value is then converted into its U.S. dollar equivalent at the foreign exchange rate in effect at the close of the NYSE on the day that the value of the security is determined. Over-the-counter securities are valued within the range of the most recent quoted bid and ask prices. Securities that trade in multiple markets or on multiple exchanges are valued according to the broadest and most representative market. Certain equity securities are valued based upon fundamental characteristics or relationships to similar securities. Investments in open-end mutual funds and non-registered money market funds are valued at the closing net asset value.

Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of financial instruments)

The inputs or methodology used for valuing financial instruments are not an indication of the risk associated with investing in those financial instruments.

For movements between the levels within the fair value hierarchy, the Fund has adopted a policy of recognizing the transfers as of the date of the underlying event which caused the movement.

In December 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2011-11, Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities. The amendments in the ASU enhance disclosures about offsetting of financial assets and liabilities to enable investors to understand the effect of these arrangements on a fund’s financial position. The ASU is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. The Fund believes the adoption of this ASU will not have a material impact on its financial statements.

TEMPLETON GLOBAL BOND SECURITIES FUND

We are pleased to bring you Templeton Global Bond Securities Fund’s semiannual report for the period ended June 30, 2012.

Performance Summary as of 6/30/12

Templeton Global Bond Securities Fund – Class 3 delivered a +5.43% total return for the six-month period ended 6/30/12.

Performance reflects the Fund’s Class 3 operating expenses, but does not include any contract fees, expenses or sales charges. If they had been included, performance would be lower. These charges and deductions, particularly for variable life policies, can have a significant effect on contract values and insurance benefits. See the contract prospectus for a complete description of these expenses, including sales charges.

Performance data represent past performance, which does not guarantee future results. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate, and you may have a gain or loss when you sell your shares.

Current performance may differ from figures shown.

TGB-1

Fund Goal and Main Investments: Templeton Global Bond Securities Fund seeks high current income, consistent with preservation of capital, with capital appreciation as a secondary consideration. Under normal market conditions, the Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets in bonds, which include debt securities of any maturity, such as bonds, notes, bills and debentures.

Performance Overview

You can find the Fund’s six-month total return in the Performance Summary. The Fund outperformed its benchmarks, the J.P. Morgan (JPM) Global Government Bond Index, which posted a +0.40% total return in U.S. dollar terms, and the Citigroup World Government Bond Index, which produced a +0.41% total return for the same period.¹

Economic and Market Overview

The global economic recovery was mixed during the first half of 2012. Emerging markets continued to lead the recovery with many economies returning to and exceeding pre-crisis activity levels. Although some developed economies, such as those of Australia and some Scandinavian countries, also enjoyed relatively strong recoveries, growth in the G-3 (U.S., eurozone and Japan) continued to be slow by the standards of previous recoveries. Fears surrounding the issues of sovereign debt in Europe, the possibility of another recession in the U.S., and a potential “hard landing” in China dominated financial market headlines early in the period. Policymakers in the largest developed economies increased their already unprecedented efforts to supply liquidity and with few exceptions, policymakers elsewhere in the world either paused their monetary tightening cycles or reversed previous tightening efforts in response to the external environment.

The continuing eurozone sovereign debt crisis contributed to periods of market risk aversion, during which yields declined, equity markets sold off and perceived safe-haven assets such as U.S. Treasuries rallied. These alternated with periods of heightened risk appetite, during which yields increased and investors again favored risk assets. Increased liquidity creation, particularly from the European Central Bank’s Long-Term Refinancing Operation and meaningful progress toward coordinated action to address persistent banking and structural economic issues alleviated investor fears of a disorderly sovereign credit event and

Fund Risks: All investments involve risks, including possible loss of principal. Changes in interest rates will affect the value of the Fund’s portfolio and its share price and yield. Bond prices generally move in the opposite direction of interest rates. Thus, as the prices of bonds in the Fund adjust to a rise in interest rates, the Fund’s share price may decline. Special risks are associated with foreign investing, including currency fluctuations, economic instability and political developments. Investments in developing markets involve heightened risks related to the same factors, in addition to those associated with their relatively small size and lesser liquidity. The Fund’s use of derivatives and foreign currency techniques involves special risks as such usage may not achieve the anticipated benefits and/or may result in losses to the Fund. The Fund is also nondiversified, which involves the risk of greater price fluctuation than a more diversified portfolio. The Fund is actively managed but there is no guarantee that the manager’s investment decisions will produce the desired results. The Fund’s prospectus also includes a description of the main investment risks.

the potential for financial contagion. Positive economic data, including first quarter year-over-year real GDP growth of 2.0% in the U.S. and 8.1% in China challenged more dire predictions of a severe global economic slowdown.²

Investment Strategy

We allocate the Fund’s assets among issuers, geographic regions, and currencies based upon our assessment of relative interest rates among currencies, our outlook for changes in interest rates and currencies, and credit risks. In considering these factors, we may evaluate a country’s changing market, economic and political conditions, such as inflation rate, growth prospects, global trade patterns and government policies. We seek to manage the Fund’s exposure to various currencies and may utilize currency forward contracts.

Manager’s Discussion

The Fund’s total return was influenced by various factors, including interest rate developments, currency movements and exposure to sovereign debt markets. During the period under review, each of these sources of return benefited absolute and relative performance.

Interest Rate Strategy

We maintained a defensive posture with respect to interest rate risk in developed and emerging markets. At period-end, the Fund had a shorter duration position than the benchmark indexes, a stance arising from our assessment that there is limited scope for further global interest rate reductions. However, we maintained some duration exposure in countries where we believed long-term bond yields could benefit from declining risk premiums. Select duration exposures in Europe and Latin America contributed to absolute and relative performance. Underweighted duration exposures in the U.S. and Japan detracted from relative performance.

Currency Strategy

As part of the Fund’s investment strategy, we used currency forward contracts to hedge or gain exposure to various currencies. Overall, our diversified currency exposure contributed to absolute and relative performance and certain Latin American and Asia ex-Japan exposures were among the largest contributors. The Japanese yen depreciated 3.57% against the U.S. dollar, and the Fund’s net negative position in the

What is a currency forward contract?

A currency forward contract is an agreement between the Fund and a counterparty to buy or sell a foreign currency for a specific exchange rate on a future date.

What is duration?

Duration is a measure of a bond’s price sensitivity to interest rate changes. In general, a portfolio of securities with a lower duration can be expected to be less sensitive to interest rate changes than a portfolio with a higher duration.

TGB-3

currency helped absolute and relative performance.³ Our net negative position in the yen reflected our pessimistic view on the relative prospects for the Japanese economy and served as an implicit hedge against potential rising yields in the U.S., given the yen’s historically strong correlation to long-term U.S. Treasury yields. We also built positions in currencies of countries we believed to have attractive medium-term growth prospects and rising short-term interest rate differentials. In particular, we favored Asian, some Latin American, and non-euro European currencies.

Global Sovereign Debt Strategy

Sovereign credit exposures contributed to absolute and relative performance during the period. These exposures were concentrated in non-eurozone Europe and included select Latin American and Asian exposures.

Thank you for your participation in Templeton Global Bond Securities Fund. We look forward to serving your future investment needs.

Fund Expenses

•

Transaction expenses can include sales charges (loads) on purchases, redemption fees, surrender fees, transfer fees and premium taxes.

•

Actual Fund Expenses

You can estimate the Fund-level expenses you incurred during the period by following these steps. Of course, your account value and expenses will differ from those in this illustration:

1.	Divide your account value by $1,000.

If an account had an $8,600 value, then $8,600 ÷ $1,000 = 8.6.

2.	Multiply the result by the number under the heading “Fund-Level Expenses Incurred During Period.”

If Fund-Level Expenses Incurred During Period were $7.50, then 8.6 x $7.50 = $64.50.

In this illustration, the estimated expenses incurred this period at the Fund level are $64.50.

Templeton Global Bond Securities Fund

1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Franklin Templeton Variable Insurance Products Trust (Trust) is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, (1940 Act) as an open-end investment company, consisting of twenty separate funds. The Templeton Global Bond Securities Fund (Fund) is included in this report. The financial statements of the remaining funds in the Trust are presented separately. Shares of the Fund are generally sold only to insurance company separate accounts to fund the benefits of variable life insurance policies or variable annuity contracts. The Fund offers four classes of shares: Class 1, Class 2, Class 3, and Class 4. Each class of shares differs by its distribution fees, voting rights on matters affecting a single class and its exchange privilege.

The following summarizes the Fund’s significant accounting policies.

a. Financial Instrument Valuation

Debt securities generally trade in the over-the-counter (OTC) market rather than on a securities exchange. The Fund’s pricing services use multiple valuation techniques to determine fair value. In instances where sufficient market activity exists, the pricing services may utilize a market-based approach through which quotes from market makers are used to determine fair value. In instances where sufficient market activity may not exist or is limited, the pricing services also utilize proprietary valuation models which may consider market characteristics such as benchmark yield curves, credit spreads, estimated default rates, anticipated market interest rate volatility, coupon rates, anticipated timing of principal repayments, underlying collateral, and other unique security features in order to estimate the relevant cash flows, which are then discounted to calculate the fair value. Securities denominated in a foreign currency are converted into their U.S. dollar equivalent at the foreign exchange rate in effect at the close of the NYSE on the date that the values of the foreign debt securities are determined. Repurchase agreements are valued at cost, which approximates market value.

Certain derivative financial instruments (derivatives) trade in the OTC market. The Fund’s pricing services use various techniques including industry standard option pricing models and proprietary discounted cash flow models to determine the fair value of those instruments. The Fund’s net benefit or obligation under the derivative contract, as measured by the fair market value of the contract, is included in net assets.

TGB-30

Franklin Templeton Variable Insurance Products Trust

Notes to Financial Statements (unaudited) (continued)

Templeton Global Bond Securities Fund

1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

a. Financial Instrument Valuation (continued)

Trading in securities on foreign securities stock exchanges and OTC markets may be completed before the daily close of business on the NYSE. Occasionally, events occur between the time at which trading in a foreign security is completed and the close of the NYSE that might call into question the reliability of the value of a portfolio security held by the Fund. As a result, differences may arise between the value of the Fund’s portfolio securities as determined at the foreign market close and the latest indications of value at the close of the NYSE. In order to minimize the potential for these differences, the VLOC monitors price movements following the close of trading in foreign stock markets through a series of country specific market proxies (such as baskets of American Depositary Receipts, futures contracts and exchange traded funds). These price movements are measured against established trigger thresholds for each specific market proxy to assist in determining if an event has occurred that may call into question the reliability of the values of the foreign securities held by the Fund. If such an event occurs, the securities may be valued using fair value procedures, which may include the use of independent pricing services.

b. Foreign Currency Translation

c. Joint Repurchase Agreement

The Fund enters into a joint repurchase agreement whereby its uninvested cash balance is deposited into a joint cash account with other funds managed by the investment manager or an affiliate of the investment manager and is used to invest in one or more repurchase agreements. The value and face amount of the joint repurchase agreement are allocated to the funds based on their pro-rata interest. A repurchase agreement is accounted for as a loan by the fund to the seller, collateralized by securities which are delivered to the fund’s custodian. The market value, including accrued interest, of the initial collateralization is required to be at least 102% of the dollar amount invested by the funds, with the value of the underlying securities marked to market daily to maintain coverage of at least 100%. The joint repurchase agreement held by the Fund at period end had been entered into on June 29, 2012.

d. Derivative Financial Instruments

The Fund invested in derivatives in order to manage risk or gain exposure to various other investments or markets. Derivatives are financial contracts based on an underlying or notional amount, require no initial investment or an initial net investment that

TGB-31

Templeton Global Bond Securities Fund

1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

d. Derivative Financial Instruments (continued)

is smaller than would normally be required to have a similar response to changes in market factors, and require or permit net settlement. Derivatives contain various risks including the potential inability of the counterparty to fulfill their obligations under the terms of the contract, the potential for an illiquid secondary market, and/or the potential for market movements which expose the Fund to gains or losses in excess of the amounts shown on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Realized gain and loss and unrealized appreciation and depreciation on these contracts for the period are included in the Statement of Operations.

The Fund entered into OTC futures contracts primarily to manage interest rate and/or exposure to certain foreign currencies risk. A futures contract is an agreement between the Fund and a counterparty to buy or sell an asset for a specified price on a future date. Required initial margin deposits of cash or securities are pledged by the Fund. Subsequent payments, known as variation margin, are made or received by the Fund, depending on fluctuations in the value of the underlying security. Such variation margin is accounted for as unrealized appreciation or depreciation until the contract is closed, at which time the gains or losses are realized.

The Fund entered into OTC forward exchange contracts primarily to manage and/or gain exposure to certain foreign currencies. A forward exchange contract is an agreement between the Fund and a counterparty to buy or sell a foreign currency for a specific exchange rate on a future date. Pursuant to the terms of the forward exchange contracts, cash or securities may be required to be deposited as collateral. Unrestricted cash may be invested according to the Fund’s investment objectives.

The Fund entered into OTC interest rate swap contracts primarily to manage interest rate risk. An interest rate swap is an agreement between the Fund and a counterparty to exchange cash flows based on the difference between two interest rates, applied to a notional principal amount. Over the term of the contract, contractually required payments to be paid and to be received are accrued daily and recorded as unrealized depreciation and appreciation until the payments are made, at which time they are realized. Pursuant to the terms of the interest rate swap contract, cash or securities may be required to be deposited as collateral. Unrestricted cash may be invested according to the Fund’s investment objectives.

The Fund’s investments in OTC derivatives are subject to the terms of International Swaps and Derivatives Association Master Agreements and other related agreements between the Fund and certain derivative counterparties. These agreements contain various provisions, including but not limited to collateral requirements, events of default, requirements for the Fund to maintain certain net asset levels and/or limit the decline in net assets over various periods of time. Should the Fund fail to meet any of these provisions, the derivative counterparty has the right to terminate the derivative contract and require immediate payment by the Fund for those OTC derivatives with that particular counterparty that are in a net unrealized loss position. At June 30, 2012, the Fund had OTC derivatives in a net unrealized loss position of $3,369,521 and the aggregate value of collateral pledged for such contracts was $4,730,000.

At June 30, 2012, the Fund held $29,062,831 in United Kingdom treasury bonds and notes, and U.S. treasury bills, bonds, and notes, and $870,000 in unrestricted cash as collateral for derivatives.

See Note 9 regarding other derivative information.

e. Restricted Cash

At June 30, 2012, the Fund held restricted cash in connection with investments in certain derivative securities. Restricted cash is held in a segregated account with the Fund’s custodian/counterparty broker and is reflected in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

f. Income and Deferred Taxes

g. Security Transactions, Investment Income, Expenses and Distributions

Security transactions are accounted for on trade date. Realized gains and losses on security transactions are determined on a specific identification basis. Interest income and estimated expenses are accrued daily. Amortization of premium and accretion of discount on debt securities are included in interest income. Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date and are determined according to income tax regulations (tax basis). Distributable earnings determined on a tax basis may differ from earnings recorded in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These differences may be permanent or temporary. Permanent differences are reclassified among capital accounts to reflect their tax character. These reclassifications have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. Temporary differences are not reclassified, as they may reverse in subsequent periods.

Inflation-indexed bonds are adjusted for inflation through periodic increases or decreases in the security’s interest accruals, face amount, or principal redemption value, by amounts corresponding to the rate of inflation as measured by an index. Any increase or decrease in the face amount or principal redemption value will be included as interest income on the Statement of Operations.

Unrealized depreciation		(99,531,328	)

Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation)	$	715,164

Differences between income and/or capital gains as determined on a book basis and a tax basis are primarily due to differing treatments of foreign currency transactions, bond discounts and premiums, tax straddles, and inflation related adjustments on foreign securities.

6. INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS

Purchases and sales of investments (excluding short term securities) for the period ended June 30, 2012, aggregated $640,583,662 and $596,190,508, respectively.

7. CREDIT RISK

At June 30, 2012, the Fund had 23.02% of its portfolio invested in high yield or other securities rated below investment grade.

Board Review of Investment Management Agreement

At a meeting held April 17, 2012, the Board of Trustees (Board), including a majority of non-interested or independent Trustees, approved renewal of the investment management agreement for each of the separate funds within the Trust (Fund(s)). In reaching this decision, the Board took into account information furnished throughout the year at regular Board meetings, as well as information prepared specifically in connection with the annual renewal review process. Information furnished and discussed throughout the year included investment performance reports and related financial information for each Fund, as well as periodic reports on expenses, shareholder services, legal and compliance matters, pricing, brokerage commissions and execution and other services provided by the Investment Manager (Manager) and its affiliates. Information furnished specifically in connection with the renewal process included reports prepared by Lipper, Inc. (Lipper), an independent organization, as well as additional material, including a Fund profitability analysis prepared by management. The Lipper reports compared a Fund’s investment performance and expenses with those of other mutual funds deemed comparable to the Fund as selected by Lipper. The Fund profitability analysis discussed the profitability to Franklin Templeton Investments from its overall U.S. fund operations, as well as on an individual fund-by-fund basis. Additional material accompanying such profitability analysis included information on a fund-by-fund basis listing portfolio managers and other accounts they manage, as well as information on management fees charged by the Manager and its affiliates to U.S. mutual funds and other accounts, including management’s explanation of differences where relevant. Such material also included a memorandum prepared by management describing project initiatives and capital investments relating to the services provided to the Funds by the Franklin Templeton Investments organization, as well as a memorandum relating to economies of scale.

In considering such materials, the independent Trustees received assistance and advice from and met separately with independent counsel. While the investment management agreements for all Funds were considered at the same Board meeting, the Board dealt with each Fund separately. In approving continuance of the investment management agreement for each Fund, the Board, including a majority of independent Trustees, determined that the existing management fee structure was fair and reasonable and that continuance of the investment management agreement was in the best interests of each Fund and its shareholders. While attention was given to all information furnished, the following discusses some primary factors relevant to the Board’s decision.

NATURE, EXTENT AND QUALITY OF SERVICE. The Board was satisfied with the nature and quality of the overall services provided by the Manager and its affiliates to the Funds and their shareholders. In addition to investment performance and expenses discussed later, the Board’s opinion was based, in part, upon periodic reports furnished it showing that the investment policies and restrictions for each Fund were consistently complied with as well as other reports periodically furnished the Board covering matters such as the compliance of portfolio managers and other management personnel with the code of ethics adopted throughout the Franklin Templeton fund complex, the adherence to fair value pricing procedures established by the Board, and the accuracy of net asset value calculations. Favorable consideration was given to management’s continuous efforts and expenditures in establishing back-up systems and recovery procedures to function in the event of a natural disaster, it being noted that such systems and procedures had functioned smoothly during the Florida hurricanes and blackouts experienced in previous years. Among other factors taken into account by the Board were the Manager’s best execution trading policies, including a favorable report by an independent portfolio trading analytical firm, which also covered FOREX transactions. Consideration was also given to the experience of each Fund’s portfolio management team, the number of accounts managed and general method of compensation. In this latter respect, the Board noted that a primary factor in management’s determination of a portfolio manager’s bonus compensation was the relative investment performance of the funds he or she managed and that a portion of such bonus was required to be invested in a predesignated list of funds within such person’s fund management area so as to be aligned with the interests of shareholders. Particular attention was given to management’s conservative approach and diligent risk management procedures, including continuous monitoring of counterparty credit risk and attention given to derivatives and other complex instruments, including expanded collateralization requirements. The Board also took into account, among other things, management’s efforts in establishing a global credit facility for the benefit of the Funds and other accounts managed by Franklin Templeton Investments to provide a source of cash for temporary and emergency purposes or to meet unusual redemption requests as well as the strong financial position of the Manager’s parent company and its commitment to the mutual fund business as evidenced by its subsidization of money market funds.

INVESTMENT PERFORMANCE. The Board placed significant emphasis on the investment performance of each of the Funds in view of its importance to shareholders. While consideration was given to performance reports and discussions with portfolio managers at Board meetings throughout the year, particular attention in assessing performance was given to the Lipper reports furnished for the agreement renewals of all Funds. The Lipper reports prepared for each of the individual Funds showed the investment performance of Class 1 shares for those Funds having such class of shares and Class 2 shares for those Funds that did not have Class 1 shares, in comparison to a performance universe selected by Lipper. Comparative performance for each Fund was shown for the one-year period ended January 31, 2012, and previous periods ended that date of up to 10 years unless otherwise noted. Performance was shown on a total return basis for each Fund and in certain cases, as indicated, on an income return basis as well. The following summarizes the performance results for each of the Funds and the Board’s view of such performance.

Franklin Flex Cap Growth Securities Fund – The performance universe for this Fund, which has been in operation for less than 10 full years, consisted of the Fund and all multi-cap growth funds underlying variable insurance products as selected by Lipper. The Lipper report showed the Fund’s comparative total return for the one-year period to be in the second-lowest quintile of its performance universe, and on an annualized basis to be in the second-lowest quintile of such universe for the previous three-year period and the middle quintile of such universe for the previous five-year period. The Board was not satisfied with the Fund’s recent underperformance and discussed the reasons for such performance and steps being taken to improve it, as well as the Fund’s portfolio management team with upper management. Based on such discussions and taking into account the Fund’s more acceptable longer term performance, the Board did not believe any immediate change in portfolio management was warranted, but intends to monitor future performance.

Franklin Global Real Estate Securities Fund – The performance universe for this Fund consisted of the Fund and all real estate funds underlying variable insurance products as selected by Lipper. The Lipper report showed the Fund’s total return to be in the second-lowest quintile of such universe for the one-year period, and on an annualized basis to be in the lowest quintile of such universe for the previous three-, five- and 10-year periods. The Lipper universe includes all real estate funds underlying variable annuities and is not limited to those having a global mandate such as the Fund. The Board noted, however, among the 14 global real estate funds with 26 share classes included in such universe, that the Fund’s Class 1 shares had the highest and second-highest total returns for the previous one and two years, respectively. The Board also noted steps that had been taken by management to improve the Fund’s performance, including the appointment of an additional portfolio manager in 2010. While the Board intends to continue monitoring the Fund’s results, it was satisfied with the efforts being made by management to improve performance and believed no change in portfolio management was warranted, noting the Fund’s favorable relative performance with respect to other global real estate funds as referred to above.

Franklin Growth and Income Securities Fund – The performance universe for this Fund consisted of the Fund and all equity income funds underlying variable insurance products as selected by Lipper. The Lipper report showed the Fund’s income return during the one-year period to be in the highest or best performing quintile of its performance universe, and on an annualized basis in each of the previous three-, five- and 10-year periods to also be in the highest quintile of such universe. The Lipper report showed the Fund’s total return for the one-year period to be in the second-highest quintile of its performance universe, and on an annualized basis to be in the highest quintile of such universe for the previous three-year period, the second-highest quintile of such universe for the previous five-year period, and the second-lowest quintile of such universe for the previous 10-year period. The Board was satisfied with the Fund’s performance as shown in the Lipper report.

Franklin High Income Securities Fund – The performance universe for this Fund consisted of the Fund and all high current yield funds underlying variable insurance products as selected by Lipper. The Lipper report showed the Fund’s income return for the one-year period to be in the second-lowest quintile of such universe, and on an annualized basis to also be in the second-lowest quintile for the previous three- and five-year periods, but to be in the highest quintile of such universe for the previous 10-year period. The Lipper report showed the Fund’s total return to be in the second-highest quintile of its performance universe for the one-year period, and on an annualized basis to be in the middle quintile of such universe for the previous three-year period, the second-highest quintile of such universe for the previous five-year period, and the middle quintile of such universe for the previous 10-year period. The Board believed the Fund’s performance as shown in the Lipper report to be acceptable and did not

warrant any change in portfolio management. In reaching such conclusion, the Board noted that the Fund’s overall favorable comparative total returns and the level of its annualized income return, which amounted to 6.40%, 6.96%, and 7.53% for the one-, three- and five-year periods, respectively, appeared generally consistent with the Fund’s investment objective of earning a high level of current income with capital appreciation as a secondary goal.

Franklin Income Securities Fund – The performance universe for this Fund consisted of the Fund and all mixed-asset target allocation moderate funds underlying variable insurance products as selected by Lipper. The Lipper report showed the Fund’s income return to be in the highest or best performing quintile of such universe for the one-year period and to also be in the highest quintile of such universe for each of the previous three-, five- and 10-year periods on an annualized basis. The Lipper report showed the Fund’s total return to be in the middle quintile of its performance universe for the one-year period and on an annualized basis to be in the highest or second-highest quintile of such universe for each of the previous three-, five- and 10-year periods. The Board was satisfied with the Fund’s comparative performance as shown in the Lipper report.

Franklin Large Cap Growth Securities Fund – The performance universe for this Fund consisted of the Fund and all large-cap core funds underlying variable insurance products as selected by Lipper. The Lipper report showed the Fund’s comparative total return to be in the upper half of such universe for the one-year period, and on an annualized basis to be in the second-lowest quintile of such universe for the previous three-year period, the second-highest quintile of such universe for the previous five-year period, and the second-lowest quintile of such universe for the previous 10-year period. The Board believed the Fund’s overall performance as set forth in the Lipper report to be acceptable, noting that its three- and 10-year annualized returns in each case were within 50 basis points of the performance universe median.

Franklin Large Cap Value Securities Fund – The performance universe for this Fund, which has been in operation for less than 10 full years, consisted of the Fund and all large-cap value funds underlying variable insurance products as selected by Lipper. The Lipper report showed the Fund’s total return to be in the lowest quintile of such universe for the one-year period and on an annualized basis to be in the second-highest quintile and middle quintile of such universe for the previous three- and five-year periods, respectively. The Board discussed with management the reasons for the Fund’s one-year underperformance, including its holdings in energy stocks exposed to natural gas, which were hurt by lower gas prices, and also discussed steps being taken to improve performance, which included the addition of an experienced investment analyst to provide support for the Fund’s lead manager. Based on such discussions and the Fund’s longer term performance, the Board did not believe that any change in the Fund’s portfolio management was warranted.

Franklin Rising Dividends Securities Fund – The performance universe for this Fund consisted of the Fund and all multi-cap core funds underlying variable insurance products as selected by Lipper. The Lipper report showed the Fund’s comparative total return to be in the highest or best performing quintile of the performance universe for the one-year period, and on an annualized basis to be in the highest or second-highest quintile of such universe for each of the three-, five- and 10-year periods. The Board was satisfied with the Fund’s performance as set forth in the Lipper report.

Franklin Small Cap Value Securities Fund – The performance universe for this Fund consisted of the Fund and all small-cap value funds underlying variable insurance products as selected by Lipper. The Lipper report showed the Fund’s total return for the one-year period to be in the second-highest performing quintile of such performance universe, and on an annualized basis to also be in the second-highest quintile of such universe for each of the previous three- and five-year periods, and in the upper half of such universe for the previous 10-year period. The Board found the Fund’s comparative performance as set forth in the Lipper report to be satisfactory.

Franklin Small-Mid Cap Growth Securities Fund – The performance universe for this Fund consisted of the Fund and all mid-cap growth funds underlying variable insurance products as selected by Lipper. The Lipper report showed the Fund’s total return for the one-year period to be in the upper half of such universe, and on an annualized basis to also be in the upper half of such universe for each of the previous three- and five-year periods, and to be in the second-lowest quintile of such universe for the previous 10-year period. The Board found the Fund’s comparative investment performance as set forth in the Lipper report to be acceptable.

Franklin Strategic Income Securities Fund – The performance universe for this Fund consisted of the Fund and all general bond funds underlying variable insurance products as selected by Lipper. The Lipper report showed the Fund’s income return to be in the second-highest quintile of such performance universe for the one-year period, and on an annualized basis to also be in the second-highest quintiles of such universe during the previous three- and five-year periods, and in the second-lowest quintile of such universe for the previous 10-year period. The Lipper report showed the Fund’s total return to be in the second-lowest quintile of such universe during the one-year period, and on an annualized basis to be in the upper half of such universe for each of the previous three- and five-year periods, and in the highest quintile of such universe for the previous 10-year period. The Board was generally satisfied with the Fund’s performance as shown in the Lipper report, noting its primary income objective and the fact that its total return for the one-year period exceeded 5%.

Franklin Templeton VIP Founding Funds Allocation Fund – The performance universe for this Fund consisted of the Fund and all mixed-asset target allocation growth funds underlying variable insurance products as selected by Lipper. The Fund has been in existence for only four full years and the Lipper report showed its income return to be in the lowest quintile of such performance universe for the one-year period, and on an annualized basis to be in the middle quintile of such universe for its four-year period of operation. The Lipper report showed the Fund’s total return for the one-year period to be in the second-lowest quintile of such universe and on an annualized basis to be in the lowest quintile of such universe for its four-year period of operation. In assessing the relevance of such comparative performance, the Board noted the Fund is not actively managed and that its performance reflects those of the three underlying funds in which it invests in equal portions. The Board reviewed and discussed the performance of such underlying funds with management and believes that each is being managed in accordance with its underlying investment mandate. The Board also notes management’s explanation that the performance of certain of the underlying funds reflects the general underperformance of value stocks during the past year. In view of the foregoing and taking into account the nature of the Fund and its short period of operation, the Board did not believe the Fund’s comparative investment performance as set forth in the Lipper report mandated any change in the investment strategy followed or manner in which the Fund operates.

Franklin U.S. Government Fund – The performance universe for this Fund consisted of the Fund and all general U.S. government funds underlying variable insurance products as selected by Lipper. The Lipper report showed the Fund’s income return for the one-year period to be in the second-highest quintile of such universe and on an annualized basis to be in the highest or second-highest quintile of such universe for each of the previous three-, five- and 10-year periods. The Lipper report showed the Fund’s total return to be in the lowest quintile of such universe for the one-year period, and on an annualized basis to be in the lowest quintile of such universe for the previous three-year period, the second-lowest quintile of such universe for the previous five-year period, and the middle quintile of such universe for the previous 10-year period. The Board found the Fund’s comparative performance as shown in the Lipper report to be acceptable, noting the Fund’s income objective, the nature of the Fund’s investments, which were primarily in U.S. mortgage-backed securities, and the fact that its total return exceeded 6% for the one-year period and exceeded 5% for all annualized periods shown in such report.

Mutual Global Discovery Securities Fund – The performance universe for this Fund consisted of the Fund and all global value funds underlying variable insurance products as selected by Lipper. The Lipper report showed the Fund’s total return to be in the highest quintile of such universe for the one-year period, and on an annualized basis to be in the lowest quintile of such universe for the three-year period, but to be in the highest quintile of such universe for each of the previous five- and 10-year periods. The Board found the Fund’s overall comparative performance as set forth in the Lipper report to be acceptable.

Mutual International Securities Fund – The performance universe for this Fund consisted of the Fund and all other international value funds underlying variable insurance products as selected by Lipper. The Fund has been in existence for only two full years at the date of the Lipper report, which showed its total return during each such year to be in either the highest or second-highest performing quintile of such universe. The Board was pleased with such comparative performance, but did not believe it to be particular meaningful in view of the Fund’s short period of operations.

Mutual Shares Securities Fund – The performance universe for this Fund consisted of the Fund and all large-cap value funds underlying variable insurance products as selected by Lipper. The Lipper report showed the Fund’s income return for the

one-year period to be in the highest or best performing quintile of such universe, and on an annualized basis to be in either the highest or second-highest quintile of such universe for each of the previous three-, five- and 10-year periods. The Lipper report showed the Fund’s total return for the one-year period to be in the middle quintile of the performance universe, and on an annualized basis to be in the lowest quintile of such universe for the previous three-year period, the middle quintile of such universe for the previous five-year period, and the highest quintile of such universe for the previous 10-year period. The Board found the Fund’s overall performance as shown in the Lipper report to be acceptable, noting its annualized three-year total return exceeded 15%.

Templeton Developing Markets Securities Fund – The performance universe for this Fund consisted of the Fund and all emerging markets funds underlying variable insurance products as selected by Lipper. The Lipper report showed the Fund’s comparative total return for the one-year period to be in the highest or best performing quintile of such performance universe and on an annualized basis to be in the second-highest quintile of such universe during each of the previous three- and five-year periods, and the middle quintile of such universe during the previous 10-year period. The Board was satisfied with the comparative performance of the Fund as set forth in the Lipper report.

Templeton Foreign Securities Fund – The performance universe for this Fund consisted of the Fund and all international value funds underlying variable insurance products as selected by Lipper. The Lipper report showed the Fund’s comparative total return for the one-year period to be in the highest or best performing quintile of such performance universe and on an annualized basis to be in the highest or best performing quintile of such universe in each of the previous three- and five-year periods, and the second-highest quintile of such universe for the previous 10-year period. The Board was satisfied with the Fund’s comparative investment performance as set forth in the Lipper report.

Templeton Global Bond Securities Fund – The performance universe for this Fund consisted of the Fund and all global income funds underlying variable insurance products as selected by Lipper. The Lipper report showed the Fund’s income return for the one-year period to be in the highest or best performing quintile of such performance universe, and on an annualized basis to also be in the highest or best performing quintile of such universe for each of the previous three-, five- and 10-year periods. The Lipper report showed the Fund’s total return for the one-year period to be in the second-lowest performing quintile of its performance universe, but on an annualized basis to be in the highest or second-highest quintile of such universe during each of the previous three-, five- and 10-year periods. The Board discussed with management the reasons for the relative underperformance of the Fund’s total return as shown in the Lipper report for the one-year period, noting, however, that it exceeded 5%. The Board was satisfied with the Fund’s comparative performance as set forth in the Lipper report.

Templeton Growth Securities Fund – The performance universe for this Fund consisted of the Fund and all global value funds underlying variable insurance products as selected by Lipper. The Lipper report showed the Fund’s total return for the one-year period to be in the second-lowest quintile of such performance universe and on an annualized basis to also be in the second-lowest quintile of such universe for each of the previous three-, five- and 10-year periods. The Board was not satisfied with the Fund’s comparative performance as set forth in the Lipper report and discussed the Fund’s portfolio management team, performance and investment process in detail with upper management. Such discussion included the analytic process and reviews followed by the Fund’s portfolio managers in selecting securities for investment and the conviction of the Fund’s portfolio management team with the correctness of adhering to their disciplined, long-term, bottom-up, fundamental approach to investing. Based on such discussions, the Board did not believe any immediate change in portfolio management was warranted, but intends to continuously monitor future performance.

COMPARATIVE EXPENSES. Consideration was given to expense comparison information contained in the Lipper reports furnished for each Fund, which compared its management fee and total expense ratio with those of a group of other funds selected by Lipper as its appropriate Lipper expense group. Lipper expense data is based upon information taken from each fund’s most recent annual report, which reflects historical asset levels that may be quite different from those currently existing, particularly in a period of market volatility. While recognizing such inherent limitation and the fact that expense ratios generally increase as assets decline and decrease as assets grow, the Board believed the independent analysis conducted by Lipper to be an appropriate measure of comparative expenses. In reviewing comparative costs, Lipper provides information on a Fund’s

contractual investment management fee rate in comparison with the contractual investment management fee rate that would have been charged by other funds within its Lipper expense group assuming they were similar in size to the Fund, as well as the actual total expense ratio of the Fund in comparison with those of its Lipper expense group. The Lipper contractual investment management fee analysis includes administrative charges at the fund level as being part of a management fee, and actual total expenses, for comparative consistency, are shown by Lipper for the same class of shares for all funds within a particular Lipper expense group. The results of such comparisons showed that both the contractual investment management fee rates and actual total expense ratios of the following Funds were in the least expensive quintile of their respective Lipper expense groups: Franklin Income Securities Fund, Franklin Small Cap Value Securities Fund, Franklin Growth and Income Securities Fund, Franklin High Income Securities Fund, Franklin Strategic Income Securities Fund and Templeton Global Bond Securities Fund. The Board was satisfied with the comparative contractual investment management fees and expenses of these Funds as shown in their Lipper reports. The contractual investment management fee rates and actual total expense ratios of each of Franklin Rising Dividend Securities Fund, Franklin Small-Mid Cap Growth Securities Fund and Franklin U.S. Government Fund were below the medians of their Lipper expense groups. The contractual investment management fee rate of Templeton Foreign Securities Fund was less than one-half of a basis point above the median of its Lipper expense group, while its actual total expense ratio was below the median of such group. The contractual investment fee rate and actual total expense ratio of Franklin Templeton VIP Founding Funds Allocation Fund were both at the median of its Lipper expense group. The Board was satisfied with the comparative contractual investment management fees and expenses of these Funds as shown in their Lipper reports. The contractual investment management fee rates for Mutual International Securities Fund, Templeton Growth Securities Fund and Franklin Large Cap Value Securities Fund were in the most expensive quintiles of their Lipper expense groups, but in each case their actual total expense ratios were below the median of such groups. The Board was satisfied with the comparative expenses of these Funds as shown in their Lipper reports, noting that, with the exception of Templeton Growth Securities Fund, the expenses of these Funds were subsidized through fee waivers. The contractual investment management fee rate of Franklin Flex Cap Growth Securities Fund was 13 basis points above its Lipper expense group median, while its actual total expense ratio was below its expense group median. The Board found the comparative expenses of this Fund as shown in its Lipper report to be acceptable, noting its expenses were subsidized through fee waivers. The contractual investment management fee rate and actual expense ratio for Franklin Large Cap Growth Securities Fund were in each case above but within eight basis points of the median of its Lipper expense group. The contractual investment fee rate of Franklin Global Real Estate Securities Fund was 20 basis points higher than the median of its Lipper expense group while its actual expense ratio was within nine basis points of its expense group median. The Board found the comparative expenses of these Funds as shown in their Lipper reports to be acceptable, noting with respect to Franklin Global Real Estate Securities Fund that a phased-in increase in its contractual investment fee rate had been approved by shareholders in 2007. The contractual investment management fee rate and actual total expense ratio of Templeton Developing Markets Securities Fund were both above the median of its Lipper expense group, but in each case were within 17 basis points of such median. The Board found the comparative expenses of this Fund to be acceptable, noting cost factors relating to the Fund’s operations, such as the quality and experience of its portfolio managers and research staff and the depth of its physical presence and coverage in developing markets geographical areas, as well as the fact that its investment management fee had been reduced effective May 1, 2011. The contractual investment management fee rates of both Mutual Global Discovery Securities Fund and Mutual Shares Securities Fund were in the most expensive quintiles of their Lipper expense groups, while the actual total expense ratio of Mutual Global Discovery Fund was 17 basis points above its expense group median, and the actual total expense ratio of Mutual Shares Securities Fund was four basis points above its expense group median. In discussing these comparative expenses, management stated its view that the expenses of these Funds were at an appropriate level in view of their overall favorable comparative investment performance, the quality and experience of their portfolio managers and the research-driven fundamental value strategy employed in their portfolio selections. The Board found the comparative expenses of these Funds to be acceptable noting the points raised by management.

MANAGEMENT PROFITABILITY. The Board also considered the level of profits realized by the Manager and its affiliates in connection with the operation of each Fund. In this respect, the Board reviewed the Fund profitability analysis that addresses the overall profitability of Franklin Templeton’s U.S. fund business, as well as its profits in providing management and other services to each of the individual funds during the 12-month period ended September 30, 2011, being the most recent fiscal year-end for Franklin Resources, Inc., the Manager’s parent. In reviewing the analysis, specific attention was given to the methodology

followed in allocating costs to each Fund, it being recognized that allocation methodologies are inherently subjective and various allocation methodologies may each be reasonable while producing different results. In this respect, the Board noted that, while being continuously refined and reflecting changes in the Manager’s own cost accounting, the allocation methodology was consistent with that followed in profitability report presentations for the Funds made in prior years and that the Funds’ independent registered public accounting firm had been engaged by the Manager to review the reasonableness of the allocation methodologies solely for use by the Funds’ Board in reference to the profitability analysis. In reviewing and discussing such analysis, management discussed with the Board its belief that costs incurred in establishing the infrastructure necessary for the type of mutual fund operations conducted by the Manager and its affiliates may not be fully reflected in the expenses allocated to each Fund in determining its profitability, as well as the fact that the level of profits, to a certain extent, reflected operational cost savings and efficiencies initiated by management. The Board also took into account management’s expenditures in improving services provided the Funds, as well as the need to implement systems to meet additional regulatory and compliance requirements resulting from statutes such as the Sarbanes-Oxley and Dodd-Frank Acts and recent SEC and other regulatory requirements. In addition, the Board considered a third-party study comparing the profitability of the Manager’s parent on an overall basis to other publicly held managers broken down to show profitability from management operations exclusive of distribution expenses, as well as profitability including distribution expenses. The Board also considered the extent to which the Manager and its affiliates might derive ancillary benefits from Fund operations, including potential benefits resulting from allocation of fund brokerage and the use of commission dollars to pay for research. Based upon its consideration of all these factors, the Board determined that the level of profits realized by the Manager and its affiliates from providing services to each Fund was not excessive in view of the nature, quality and extent of services provided.

ECONOMIES OF SCALE. The Board also considered whether economies of scale are realized by the Manager as the Funds grow larger and the extent to which this is reflected in the level of management fees charged. While recognizing that any precise determination is inherently subjective, the Board noted that based upon the Fund profitability analysis, it appears that as some funds get larger, at some point economies of scale do result in the Manager realizing a larger profit margin on management services provided such a fund. The Board also noted that economies of scale are shared with a fund and its shareholders through management fee breakpoints so that as a fund grows in size, its effective management fee rate declines. In the case of Franklin Templeton VIP Founding Funds Allocation Fund, the management fees of the underlying funds in which it invests have management fee breakpoints that extend beyond their existing asset sizes, and in the case of each of the other Funds, their management fees contain breakpoints that extend beyond their existing asset sizes. To the extent economies of scale may be realized by the manager and its affiliates, the Board believed the schedule of investment management fees provides a sharing of benefits for each Fund and its shareholders.
