SPECIALIZED EXPERTISE Each of our portfolio management groups operates autonomously, relying on its own research and staying true to the unique investment disciplines that underlie its success. FRANKLIN. Founded in 1947, Franklin is a recognized leader in fixed income investing and also brings expertise in growth- and value-style U.S. equity investing. TEMPLETON. Founded in 1940, Templeton pioneered international investing and, in 1954, launched what has become the industry's oldest global fund. Today, with offices in over 25 countries, Templeton offers investors a truly global perspective. MUTUAL SERIES. Founded in 1949, Mutual Series is dedicated to a unique style of value investing, searching aggressively for opportunity among what it believes are undervalued stocks, as well as arbitrage situations and distressed securities. TRUE DIVERSIFICATION Because our management groups work independently and adhere to different investment approaches, Franklin, Templeton and Mutual Series funds typically have distinct portfolios. That's why our funds can be used to build truly diversified allocation plans covering every major asset class. RELIABILITY YOU CAN TRUST At Franklin Templeton Investments, we seek to consistently provide investors with exceptional risk-adjusted returns over the long term, as well as the reliable, accurate and personal service that has helped us become one of the most trusted names in financial services. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- MUTUAL FUNDS | RETIREMENT PLANS | 529 COLLEGE SAVINGS PLANS | SEPARATE ACCOUNTS - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [GRAPHIC OMITTED] Not part of the annual report Contents SHAREHOLDER LETTER ........................................................ 1 ANNUAL REPORT Economic and Market Overview .............................................. 3 Franklin Templeton Conservative Target Fund ............................... 5 Franklin Templeton Moderate Target Fund ................................... 15 Franklin Templeton Growth Target Fund ..................................... 25 Financial Highlights and Statements of Investments ........................ 35 Financial Statements ...................................................... 53 Notes to Financial Statements ............................................. 58 Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm ................... 68 Tax Designation ........................................................... 69 Board Members and Officers ................................................ 70 Shareholder Information ................................................... 75 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Annual Report Economic and Market Overview During the 12 months ended December 31, 2007, the U.S. economy advanced at a moderate but uneven pace. After slow first quarter growth, gross domestic product (GDP) advanced solidly in the second quarter, supported by federal defense spending, accelerating exports and declining imports, and greater business spending. In the third quarter, growth accelerated despite a struggling housing market and the abrupt unraveling of the subprime mortgage market. The housing downturn affected the overall economy by fourth quarter 2007 when GDP growth decelerated as credit conditions worsened and consumer spending slowed. Consumer confidence declined through period-end largely due to rising mortgage and fuel costs, falling home prices and a weaker job market. Oil prices were volatile and established a new record high in November, nearing $99 per barrel. For the 12 months ended December 31, 2007, the core Consumer Price Index (CPI), which excludes food and energy costs, rose 2.4%, which was higher than its 10-year average rate. 1 Facing the prospect of slower economic growth, the Federal Reserve Board lowered the federal funds target rate to 4.25% from 5.25% during the period. As investors fled riskier, poorer-performing assets, U.S. Treasuries rallied and the 10-year Treasury note yield fell from 4.71% at the beginning of the period to 4.04% on December 31, 2007. The global economy remained resilient despite elevated energy prices and widespread fears of contagion from the deteriorating U.S. housing situation. Consumer and corporate demand strength, particularly in China and other developing economies, generally favorable employment and accommodative monetary policies continued to underpin the current global expansionary period that began in 2002. These factors also contributed to the strength of global equity markets during 2007. However, concerns about slower growth and declining asset quality surfaced in the first quarter. Initially centered on the U.S. subprime mortgage market, they spread in August to global capital markets. Difficulties in assessing risk and the value of collateral in the structured finance industry contributed to declining risk appetite among lenders and investors. The private equity industry, which relies on the availability of cheap credit, played a pivotal role 1. Source: Bureau of Labor Statistics. Annual Report | 3 in several large and high-profile acquisitions, helped boost merger and acquisition activity in the first half of 2007, and was an important driver of equity performance. A second-half tightening of liquidity led to slower deal activity and weighed on market performance. However, in 2007, global merger and acquisition activity still reached record levels. To alleviate the credit crunch and restore investor confidence, the world's major central banks infused capital into the system. However, credit and equity markets continued to face headwinds as write-downs and losses from subprime mortgage financing affected many large financial institutions toward the end of the year, and equity prices remained volatile. For the year, however, global and non-U.S. equity markets registered the fifth consecutive year of double-digit total returns. Broad-based stock performance by European and Asian shares at least doubled that of U.S. stocks, while emerging market equity returns more than tripled those in developed markets. In addition, U.S. dollar weakness versus the currencies of many major trading partners enhanced equity returns for U.S.-based investors holding stocks denominated in these currencies.

INVESTMENT STRATEGY Whenever possible, we attempt to hold the same underlying Franklin Templeton funds in each Target Fund's portfolio. We generally diversify the Target Funds' broad equity allocations across investment styles, market capitalization sizes and countries of origin. Maintaining similarity of the underlying Franklin Templeton fund investments across the Allocator Series is intended to increase the consistency of the Target Funds' results relative to one another. For your reference, Franklin Templeton Conservative Target Fund seeks to maintain the following asset class allocations: 40% equity funds, 40% fixed income funds, and 20% short-term investments and other net assets. MANAGER'S DISCUSSION The Fund's performance can be attributed largely to maintaining a static allocation among equities, fixed income securities, and short-term investments and other net assets, and by the actual performance of the selected underlying funds. At period-end, Franklin Templeton Conservative Target Fund's domestic equity exposure was 68.8% of its total equity weighting, with the balance represented by foreign equity. The portfolio was diversified across capitalization sizes and investment styles, and on December 31, 2007, we held shares in large-, mid- and small-capitalization equity funds, representing both growth and value styles. Mutual Shares Fund - Class Z representing 8.9% of the Fund's total net assets, was our largest equity fund weighting at period-end. On the fixed income side, domestic exposure was 67.6% of the Fund's total income weighting, with the 2. Sources: Standard & Poor's Micropal; Lehman Brothers Inc. The S&P 500 consists of 500 stocks chosen for market size, liquidity and industry group representation. Each stock's weight in the index is proportionate to its market value. The S&P 500 is one of the most widely used benchmarks of U.S. equity performance. The MSCI EAFE Index is a free float-adjusted, market capitalization-weighted index designed to measure equity market performance in global developed markets excluding the U.S. and Canada. The LB U.S. Aggregate Index represents securities that are SEC-registered, taxable and dollar denominated. The index covers the U.S. investment grade fixed-rate bond markets, with index components for government and corporate securities, mortgage pass-through securities and asset-backed securities. All issues included must have at least one year to final maturity and must be rated investment grade (Baa3 or better) by Moody's Investors Service. They must also be dollar denominated and nonconvertible. Total return includes price appreciation/depreciation and income as a percentage of the original investment. The index is rebalanced monthly by market capitalization. The P&R 90 Day U.S. T-Bill Index is a total return index based on a constant maturity instrument. Payden & Rygel includes both accrued interest and change in market price in its monthly total return calculations. The value of Treasuries, if held to maturity, is fixed; principal is guaranteed and interest is fixed. The benchmark index's weightings are as follows: S&P 500 28%, MSCI EAFE 12%, LB U.S. Aggregate 40% and P&R 90 Day T-Bill 20%. The indexes are unmanaged and include reinvested distributions. One cannot invest directly in an index, nor is an index representative of the Fund's portfolio. 6 | Annual Report balance represented by foreign fixed income. Templeton Global Bond Fund - - Advisor Class was our largest fixed income fund weighting at 12.7% of total net assets. Our largest domestic growth fund holding, Franklin Flex Cap Growth Fund - - Advisor Class, outperformed the S&P 500 during the 12-month reporting period, while our largest domestic value fund holding, Mutual Shares Fund - - Class Z, underperformed the S&P 500.

STRATEGIES INVOLVING CERTAIN RISKS, THE FUND MAY BE SUBJECT TO THESE SAME RISKS. THESE RISKS ARE DESCRIBED IN THE FUND'S PROSPECTUS. CLASS A: Prior to 8/3/98, these shares were offered at a lower initial sales charge; thus actual total returns may differ. CLASS B: These shares have higher annual fees and expenses than Class A shares. CLASS C: Prior to 1/1/04, these shares were offered with an initial sales charge; thus actual total returns would have differed. These shares have higher annual fees and expenses than Class A shares. CLASS R: Shares are available to certain eligible investors as described in the prospectus. These shares have higher annual fees and expenses than Class A shares. ADVISOR CLASS: Shares are available to certain eligible investors as described in the prospectus. 1. If the manager had not waived fees, the Fund's total returns would have been lower. 2. Cumulative total return represents the change in value of an investment over the periods indicated. 3. Average annual total return represents the average annual change in value of an investment over the periods indicated. 4. These figures represent the value of a hypothetical $10,000 investment in the Fund over the periods indicated. 5. Figures are as stated in the Fund's prospectus current as of the date of this report. 6. Effective 12/1/05, the Fund began offering Advisor Class shares, which do not have sales charges or a Rule 12b-1 plan. Performance quotations for this class reflect the following methods of calculation: (a) For periods prior to 12/1/05, a restated figure is used based upon the Fund's Class A performance, excluding the effect of Class A's maximum initial sales charge, but reflecting the effect of the Class A Rule 12b-1 fees; and (b) for periods after 11/30/05, actual Advisor Class performance is used reflecting all charges and fees applicable to that class. Since 12/1/05 (commencement of sales), the cumulative and average annual total returns of Advisor Class shares were +20.44% and +9.34%. 7. Sources: Standard & Poor's Micropal; Lehman Brothers Inc.

All mutual funds have ongoing costs, sometimes referred to as operating expenses. The following table shows ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and can help you understand these costs and compare them with those of other mutual funds. The table assumes a $1,000 investment held for the six months indicated. ACTUAL FUND EXPENSES The first line (Actual) for each share class listed in 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 Fund expenses. You can estimate the expenses you paid 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 "Expenses Paid During Period." IF EXPENSES PAID DURING PERIOD WERE $7.50, THEN 8.6 X $7.50 = $64.50. In this illustration, the estimated expenses paid this period are $64.50. HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON WITH OTHER FUNDS Information in the second line (Hypothetical) for each class in the table can help you compare ongoing costs of investing in the Fund with those of other mutual funds. This information may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid during the period. The hypothetical "Ending Account Value" is based on the actual expense ratio for each class and an assumed 5% annual rate of return before expenses, which does not represent the Fund's actual return. The figure under the heading "Expenses Paid 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. Annual Report | 13 Your Fund's Expenses (CONTINUED) PLEASE NOTE THAT EXPENSES SHOWN IN THE TABLE ARE MEANT TO HIGHLIGHT ONGOING COSTS AND DO NOT REFLECT ANY TRANSACTION COSTS, SUCH AS SALES CHARGES OR REDEMPTION FEES. Therefore, the second line for each class is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you compare total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if transaction costs were included, your total costs would have been higher. Please refer to the Fund prospectus for additional information on operating expenses. - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- BEGINNING ACCOUNT ENDING ACCOUNT EXPENSES PAID DURING CLASS A VALUE 7/1/07 VALUE 12/31/07 PERIOD* 7/1/07-12/31/07 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Actual $1,000 $1,028.40 $2.51 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hypothetical (5% return before expenses) $1,000 $1,022.74 $2.50 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CLASS B - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Actual $1,000 $1,023.90 $6.33 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hypothetical (5% return before expenses) $1,000 $1,018.95 $6.31 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CLASS C - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Actual $1,000 $1,024.60 $6.28 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hypothetical (5% return before expenses) $1,000 $1,019.00 $6.26 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CLASS R - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Actual $1,000 $1,026.50 $3.78 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hypothetical (5% return before expenses) $1,000 $1,021.48 $3.77 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ADVISOR CLASS - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Actual $1,000 $1,029.10 $1.23 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hypothetical (5% return before expenses) $1,000 $1,024.00 $1.22 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- * Expenses are calculated using the most recent six-month expense ratio excluding expenses of the underlying funds, net of expense waivers, annualized for each class (A: 0.49%; B: 1.24%; C: 1.23%; R: 0.74%; and Advisor: 0.24%), multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 184/365 to reflect the one-half year period. 14 | Annual Report Franklin Templeton Moderate Target Fund YOUR FUND'S GOAL AND MAIN INVESTMENTS: Franklin Templeton Moderate Target Fund seeks the highest level of long-term total return consistent with a moderate level of risk. 1 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ASSET ALLOCATION* Franklin Templeton Moderate Target Fund Based on Total Net Assets as of 12/31/07 [THE FOLLOWING TABLE WAS REPRESENTED BY A PIE CHART IN THE PRINTED MATERIAL.] Domestic Equity .......................................... 37.4% Domestic Fixed Income .................................... 23.9% Foreign Equity ........................................... 17.1% Foreign Fixed Income ..................................... 11.3% Short-Term Investments & Other Net Assets ................ 10.3% * The asset allocation is based on the Statement of Investments (SOI), which classifies each underlying fund into a broad asset class. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PERFORMANCE DATA REPRESENT PAST PERFORMANCE, WHICH DOES NOT GUARANTEE FUTURE RESULTS.

INVESTMENT STRATEGY Whenever possible, we attempt to hold the same underlying Franklin Templeton funds in each Target Fund's portfolio. We generally diversify the Target Funds' broad equity allocations across investment styles, market capitalization sizes and countries of origin. Maintaining similarity of the underlying Franklin Templeton fund investments across the Allocator Series is intended to increase the consistency of the Target Funds' results relative to one another. For your reference, Franklin Templeton Moderate Target Fund seeks to maintain the following asset class allocations: 55% equity funds, 35% fixed income funds, and 10% short-term investments and other net assets. MANAGER'S DISCUSSION The Fund's performance can be attributed largely to maintaining a static allocation among equities, fixed income securities, and short-term investments and other net assets, and by the actual performance of the selected underlying funds. At period-end, Franklin Templeton Moderate Target Fund's domestic equity exposure was 68.6% of its total equity weighting, with the balance represented by foreign equity. The portfolio was diversified across capitalization sizes and investment styles, and on December 31, 2007, we held shares in large-, mid- and small-capitalization equity funds, representing both growth and value styles. Mutual Shares Fund - Class Z representing 11.7% of the Fund's total net assets, was our largest equity fund weighting at period-end. On the fixed income side, domestic exposure was 67.9% of the Fund's total income weighting, with the 2. Sources: Standard & Poor's Micropal; Lehman Brothers Inc. The S&P 500 consists of 500 stocks chosen for market size, liquidity and industry group representation. Each stock's weight in the index is proportionate to its market value. The S&P 500 is one of the most widely used benchmarks of U.S. equity performance. The MSCI EAFE Index is a free float-adjusted, market capitalization-weighted index designed to measure equity market performance in global developed markets excluding the U.S. and Canada. The LB U.S. Aggregate Index represents securities that are SEC-registered, taxable and dollar denominated. The index covers the U.S. investment grade fixed-rate bond markets, with index components for government and corporate securities, mortgage pass-through securities and asset-backed securities. All issues included must have at least one year to final maturity and must be rated investment grade (Baa3 or better) by Moody's Investors Service. They must also be dollar denominated and nonconvertible. Total return includes price appreciation/depreciation and income as a percentage of the original investment. The index is rebalanced monthly by market capitalization. The P&R 90 Day U.S. T-Bill Index is a total return index based on a constant maturity instrument. Payden & Rygel includes both accrued interest and change in market price in its monthly total return calculations. The value of Treasuries, if held to maturity, is fixed; principal is guaranteed and interest is fixed. The benchmark index's weightings are as follows: S&P 500 39%, MSCI EAFE 16%, LB U.S. Aggregate 35% and P&R 90 Day T-Bill 10%. The indexes are unmanaged and include reinvested distributions. One cannot invest directly in an index, nor is an index representative of the Fund's portfolio. 16 | Annual Report balance represented by foreign fixed income. Templeton Global Bond Fund - Advisor Class was our largest fixed income fund weighting at 11.3% of total net assets. Our largest domestic growth fund holding, Franklin Flex Cap Growth Fund - Advisor Class, outperformed the S&P 500 during the 12-month reporting period, while our largest domestic value fund holding, Mutual Shares Fund - Class Z, underperformed the S&P 500.

THE FUND MAY BE SUBJECT TO THESE SAME RISKS. THESE RISKS ARE DESCRIBED IN THE FUND'S PROSPECTUS. CLASS A: Prior to 8/3/98, these shares were offered at a lower initial sales charge; thus actual total returns may differ. CLASS B: These shares have higher annual fees and expenses than Class A shares. CLASS C: Prior to 1/1/04, these shares were offered with an initial sales charge; thus actual total returns would have differed. These shares have higher annual fees and expenses than Class A shares. CLASS R: Shares are available to certain eligible investors as described in the prospectus. These shares have higher annual fees and expenses than Class A shares. ADVISOR CLASS: Shares are available to certain eligible investors as described in the prospectus. 1. If the manager had not waived fees, the Fund's total returns would have been lower. 2. Cumulative total return represents the change in value of an investment over the periods indicated. 3. Average annual total return represents the average annual change in value of an investment over the periods indicated. 4. These figures represent the value of a hypothetical $10,000 investment in the Fund over the periods indicated. 5. Figures are as stated in the Fund's prospectus current as of the date of this report. 6. Effective 12/1/05, the Fund began offering Advisor Class shares, which do not have sales charges or a Rule 12b-1 plan. Performance quotations for this class reflect the following methods of calculation: (a) For periods prior to 12/1/05, a restated figure is used based upon the Fund's Class A performance, excluding the effect of Class A's maximum initial sales charge, but reflecting the effect of the Class A Rule 12b-1 fees; and (b) for periods after 11/30/05, actual Advisor Class performance is used reflecting all charges and fees applicable to that class. Since 12/1/05 (commencement of sales), the cumulative and average annual total returns of Advisor Class shares were +23.51% and +10.67%. 7. Sources: Standard & Poor's Micropal; Lehman Brothers Inc.

All mutual funds have ongoing costs, sometimes referred to as operating expenses. The following table shows ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and can help you understand these costs and compare them with those of other mutual funds. The table assumes a $1,000 investment held for the six months indicated. ACTUAL FUND EXPENSES The first line (Actual) for each share class listed in 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 Fund expenses. You can estimate the expenses you paid 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 "Expenses Paid During Period." IF EXPENSES PAID DURING PERIOD WERE $7.50, THEN 8.6 X $7.50 = $64.50. In this illustration, the estimated expenses paid this period are $64.50. HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON WITH OTHER FUNDS Information in the second line (Hypothetical) for each class in the table can help you compare ongoing costs of investing in the Fund with those of other mutual funds. This information may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid during the period. The hypothetical "Ending Account Value" is based on the actual expense ratio for each class and an assumed 5% annual rate of return before expenses, which does not represent the Fund's actual return. The figure under the heading "Expenses Paid 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. Annual Report | 23 Your Fund's Expenses (CONTINUED) PLEASE NOTE THAT EXPENSES SHOWN IN THE TABLE ARE MEANT TO HIGHLIGHT ONGOING COSTS AND DO NOT REFLECT ANY TRANSACTION COSTS, SUCH AS SALES CHARGES OR REDEMPTION FEES. Therefore, the second line for each class is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you compare total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if transaction costs were included, your total costs would have been higher. Please refer to the Fund prospectus for additional information on operating expenses. - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- BEGINNING ACCOUNT ENDING ACCOUNT EXPENSES PAID DURING CLASS A VALUE 7/1/07 VALUE 12/31/07 PERIOD* 7/1/07-12/31/07 - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Actual $1,000 $1,025.80 $2.55 - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hypothetical (5% return before expenses) $1,000 $1,022.68 $2.55 - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CLASS B - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Actual $1,000 $1,022.20 $6.37 - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hypothetical (5% return before expenses) $1,000 $1,018.90 $6.36 - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CLASS C - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Actual $1,000 $1,021.90 $6.37 - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hypothetical (5% return before expenses) $1,000 $1,018.90 $6.36 - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CLASS R - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Actual $1,000 $1,024.50 $3.83 - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hypothetical (5% return before expenses) $1,000 $1,021.42 $3.82 - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ADVISOR CLASS - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Actual $1,000 $1,026.60 $1.28 - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hypothetical (5% return before expenses) $1,000 $1,023.95 $1.28 - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- *Expenses are calculated using the most recent six-month expense ratio excluding expenses of the underlying funds, net of expense waivers, annualized for each class (A: 0.50%; B: 1.25%; C: 1.25%; R: 0.75%; and Advisor: 0.25%), multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 184/365 to reflect the one-half year period. 24 | Annual Report Franklin Templeton Growth Target Fund YOUR FUND'S GOALS AND MAIN INVESTMENTS: Franklin Templeton Growth Target Fund seeks the highest level of long-term total return consistent with a higher level of risk. 1 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ASSET ALLOCATION* Franklin Templeton Growth Target Fund Based on Total Net Assets as of 12/31/07 [THE FOLLOWING TABLE WAS REPRESENTED BY A PIE CHART IN THE PRINTED MATERIAL.] Domestic Equity .................................... 55.2% Foreign Equity ..................................... 24.4% Domestic Fixed Income .............................. 10.7% Foreign Fixed Income ............................... 5.0% Short-Term Investments & Other Net Assets .......... 4.7% *The asset allocation is based on the Statement of Investments (SOI), which classifies each underlying fund into a broad asset class. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PERFORMANCE DATA REPRESENT PAST PERFORMANCE, WHICH DOES NOT GUARANTEE FUTURE RESULTS.

INVESTMENT STRATEGY Whenever possible, we attempt to hold the same underlying Franklin Templeton funds in each Target Fund's portfolio. We generally diversify the Target Funds' broad equity allocations across investment styles, market capitalization sizes and countries of origin. Maintaining similarity of the underlying Franklin Templeton fund investments across the Allocator Series is intended to increase the consistency of the Target Funds' results relative to one another. For your reference, Franklin Templeton Growth Target Fund seeks to maintain the following asset class allocations: 80% equity funds, 15% fixed income funds, and 5% short-term investments and other net assets. MANAGER'S DISCUSSION The Fund's performance can be attributed largely to maintaining a static allocation among equities, fixed income securities, and short-term investments and other net assets, and by the actual performance of the selected underlying funds. At period-end, Franklin Templeton Growth Target Fund's domestic equity exposure was 69.3% of its total equity weighting, with the balance represented by foreign equity. The portfolio was diversified across capitalization sizes and investment styles, and on December 31, 2007, we held shares in large-, mid- and small-capitalization equity funds, representing both growth and value styles. Mutual Shares Fund - Class Z, representing 17.3% of the Fund's total net assets, was our largest equity fund weighting at period-end. On the fixed income side, domestic exposure was 68.2% of the Fund's total income weighting, with the 2. Sources: Standard & Poor's Micropal; Lehman Brothers Inc. The S&P 500 consists of 500 stocks chosen for market size, liquidity and industry group representation. Each stock's weight in the index is proportionate to its market value. The S&P 500 is one of the most widely used benchmarks of U.S. equity performance. The MSCI EAFE Index is a free float-adjusted, market capitalization-weighted index designed to measure equity market performance in global developed markets excluding the U.S. and Canada. The LB U.S. Aggregate Index represents securities that are SEC-registered, taxable and dollar denominated. The index covers the U.S. investment grade fixed-rate bond markets, with index components for government and corporate securities, mortgage pass-through securities and asset-backed securities. All issues included must have at least one year to final maturity and must be rated investment grade (Baa3 or better) by Moody's Investors Service. They must also be dollar denominated and nonconvertible. Total return includes price appreciation/depreciation and income as a percentage of the original investment. The index is rebalanced monthly by market capitalization. The P&R 90 Day U.S. T-Bill Index is a total return index based on a constant maturity instrument. Payden & Rygel includes both accrued interest and change in market price in its monthly total return calculations. The value of Treasuries, if held to maturity, is fixed; principal is guaranteed and interest is fixed. The benchmark index's weightings are as follows: S&P 500 56%, MSCI EAFE 24%, LB U.S. Aggregate 15% and P&R 90 Day U.S. T-Bill 5%. The indexes are unmanaged and include reinvested distributions. One cannot invest directly in an index, nor is an index representative of the Fund's portfolio. 26 | Annual Report balance represented by foreign fixed income. Templeton Global Bond Fund - Advisor Class and Franklin U.S. Government Securities Fund - Advisor Class were our largest fixed income fund weightings at 5.0% of total net assets each. Our largest domestic growth fund holding, Franklin Flex Cap Growth Fund - Advisor Class, outperformed the S&P 500 during the 12-month reporting period, while our largest domestic value fund holding, Mutual Shares Fund - Class Z, underperformed the S&P 500. Our largest foreign equity fund holding, Mutual European Fund - Class Z, outperformed the MSCI EAFE Index. On the fixed income side, Templeton Global Bond Fund - Advisor Class and Franklin U.S. Government Securities Fund - Advisor Class outperformed the LB U.S. Aggregate Index.

ENGAGE IN A VARIETY OF INVESTMENT STRATEGIES INVOLVING CERTAIN RISKS, THE FUND MAY BE SUBJECT TO THESE SAME RISKS. THESE RISKS ARE DESCRIBED IN THE FUND'S PROSPECTUS. CLASS A: Prior to 8/3/98, these shares were offered at a lower initial sales charge; thus actual total returns may differ. CLASS B: These shares have higher annual fees and expenses than Class A shares. CLASS C: Prior to 1/1/04, these shares were offered with an initial sales charge; thus actual total returns would have differed. These shares have higher annual fees and expenses than Class A shares. CLASS R: Shares are available to certain eligible investors as described in the prospectus. These shares have higher annual fees and expenses than Class A shares. ADVISOR CLASS: Shares are available to certain eligible investors as described in the prospectus. 1. If the manager had not waived fees, the Fund's total returns would have been lower. 2. Cumulative total return represents the change in value of an investment over the periods indicated. 3. Average annual total return represents the average annual change in value of an investment over the periods indicated. 4. These figures represent the value of a hypothetical $10,000 investment in the Fund over the periods indicated. 5. Figures are as stated in the Fund's prospectus current as of the date of this report. 6. Effective 12/1/05, the Fund began offering Advisor Class shares, which do not have sales charges or a Rule 12b-1 plan. Performance quotations for this class reflect the following methods of calculation: (a) For periods prior to 12/1/05, a restated figure is used based upon the Fund's Class A performance, excluding the effect of Class A's maximum initial sales charge, but reflecting the effect of the Class A Rule 12b-1 fees; and (b) for periods after 11/30/05, actual Advisor Class performance is used reflecting all charges and fees applicable to that class. Since 12/1/05 (commencement of sales), the cumulative and average annual total returns of Advisor Class shares were +27.28% and +12.28%. 7. Sources: Standard & Poor's Micropal; Lehman Brothers Inc.

All mutual funds have ongoing costs, sometimes referred to as operating expenses. The following table shows ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and can help you understand these costs and compare them with those of other mutual funds. The table assumes a $1,000 investment held for the six months indicated. ACTUAL FUND EXPENSES The first line (Actual) for each share class listed in 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 Fund expenses. You can estimate the expenses you paid 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 "Expenses Paid During Period." IF EXPENSES PAID DURING PERIOD WERE $7.50, THEN 8.6 X $7.50 = $64.50. In this illustration, the estimated expenses paid this period are $64.50. HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON WITH OTHER FUNDS Information in the second line (Hypothetical) for each class in the table can help you compare ongoing costs of investing in the Fund with those of other mutual funds. This information may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid during the period. The hypothetical "Ending Account Value" is based on the actual expense ratio for each class and an assumed 5% annual rate of return before expenses, which does not represent the Fund's actual return. The figure under the heading "Expenses Paid 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. Annual Report | 33 Your Fund's Expenses (CONTINUED) PLEASE NOTE THAT EXPENSES SHOWN IN THE TABLE ARE MEANT TO HIGHLIGHT ONGOING COSTS AND DO NOT REFLECT ANY TRANSACTION COSTS, SUCH AS SALES CHARGES OR REDEMPTION FEES. Therefore, the second line for each class is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you compare total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if transaction costs were included, your total costs would have been higher. Please refer to the Fund prospectus for additional information on operating expenses. - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ BEGINNING ACCOUNT ENDING ACCOUNT EXPENSES PAID DURING CLASS A VALUE 7/1/07 VALUE 12/31/07 PERIOD* 7/1/07-12/31/07 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Actual $1,000 $1,019.10 $2.49 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Hypothetical (5% return before expenses) $1,000 $1,022.74 $2.50 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ CLASS B - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Actual $1,000 $1,014.80 $6.30 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Hypothetical (5% return before expenses) $1,000 $1,018.95 $6.31 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ CLASS C - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Actual $1,000 $1,015.00 $6.30 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Hypothetical (5% return before expenses) $1,000 $1,018.95 $6.31 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ CLASS R - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Actual $1,000 $1,017.80 $3.76 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Hypothetical (5% return before expenses) $1,000 $1,021.48 $3.77 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ADVISOR CLASS - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Actual $1,000 $1,019.90 $1.22 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Hypothetical (5% return before expenses) $1,000 $1,024.00 $1.22 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ * Expenses are calculated using the most recent six-month expense ratio excluding expenses of the underlying funds, net of expense waivers, annualized for each class (A: 0.49%; B: 1.24%; C: 1.24%; R: 0.74%; and Advisor: 0.24%), multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 184/365 to reflect the one-half year period. 34 | Annual Report Franklin Templeton Fund Allocator Series FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS FRANKLIN TEMPLETON CONSERVATIVE TARGET FUND ------------------------------------------------------------------------- YEAR ENDED YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, JULY 31, CLASS A 2007 2006 2005 2004 h 2004 2003 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- PER SHARE OPERATING PERFORMANCE (for a share outstanding throughout the year) Net asset value, beginning of year .................... $ 13.33 $ 12.74 $ 12.48 $ 11.66 $ 10.91 $ 10.23 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Income from investment operations a: Net investment income b,c .......................... 0.48 0.41 0.29 0.12 0.23 0.23 Net realized and unrealized gains (losses) ......... 0.60 0.84 0.29 0.84 0.74 0.69 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total from investment operations ...................... 1.08 1.25 0.58 0.96 0.97 0.92 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Less distributions from: Net investment income ..............................

ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Franklin Templeton Fund Allocator Series (Trust) is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, (1940 Act) as an open-end investment company, consisting of ten separate funds. All funds included in this report (Funds) are diversified. The financial statements of the remaining funds in the Trust are presented separately. The Funds invest primarily in Franklin Templeton mutual funds (Underlying Funds). The Funds offer five classes of shares: Class A, Class B, Class C, Class R, and Advisor Class. Each class of shares differs by its initial sales load, contingent deferred sales charges, distribution fees, voting rights on matters affecting a single class and its exchange privilege. The following summarizes the Funds' significant accounting policies. A. SECURITY VALUATION Net asset value per share is calculated as of the close of trading of the NYSE. Investments in the Underlying Funds are valued at their closing net asset value each trading day. B. INCOME TAXES No provision has been made for U.S. income taxes because it is each fund's policy to qualify as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code and to distribute to shareholders substantially all of its taxable income and net realized gains. C. 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 and realized gain distributions by Underlying Funds are recorded on 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. 58 | Annual Report Franklin Templeton Fund Allocator Series NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) 1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) C. SECURITY TRANSACTIONS, INVESTMENT INCOME, EXPENSES AND DISTRIBUTIONS (CONTINUED) The Funds indirectly bear their proportionate share of expenses from the Underlying Funds. Since the Underlying Funds have varied expense levels and the Funds may own different proportions of the Underlying Funds at different times, the amount of expenses incurred indirectly by the Funds will vary. Realized and unrealized gains and losses and net investment income, other than 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. D. 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. E. REDEMPTION FEES A short term trading redemption fee will be imposed, with some exceptions, on any fund shares that are redeemed or exchanged within seven calendar days following their purchase date. The redemption fee is 2% of the amount redeemed. Such fees are retained by the Funds and accounted for as an addition to paid-in capital. F. 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 Funds, 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. Annual Report | 59 Franklin Templeton Fund Allocator Series NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) 2.

INVESTMENTS IN UNDERLYING FUNDS The Funds invest primarily in the Underlying Funds which are managed by Advisers or an affiliate of Advisers. The Funds do not invest in the Underlying Funds for the purpose of exercising management or control. At December 31, 2007, the Funds held the following positions which exceed 5% of the Underlying Funds' shares outstanding: - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NAME OF ISSUER % OF SHARES HELD - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- FRANKLIN TEMPLETON CONSERVATIVE TARGET FUND Franklin Strategic Mortgage Portfolio ..................... 8.69% Franklin Global Real Estate Fund .......................... 5.94% FRANKLIN TEMPLETON MODERATE TARGET FUND Franklin Global Real Estate Fund .......................... 13.73% Franklin Strategic Mortgage Portfolio ..................... 13.47% Franklin Small Cap Growth Fund II ......................... 7.30% Franklin Growth Opportunities Fund ........................ 7.11% Franklin Total Return Fund ................................ 5.03% FRANKLIN TEMPLETON GROWTH TARGET FUND Franklin Global Real Estate Fund .......................... 16.58% Franklin Small Cap Growth Fund II ......................... 9.14% Franklin Growth Opportunities Fund ........................ 8.19% Franklin Strategic Mortgage Portfolio ..................... 5.07% The Funds may invest in the Franklin Institutional Fiduciary Trust Money Market Portfolio (Sweep Money Fund), an open-end investment company managed by Advisers.

REGULATORY AND LITIGATION MATTERS As part of various investigations by a number of federal, state, and foreign regulators and governmental entities, including the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), relating to certain practices in the mutual fund industry, including late trading, market timing and marketing support 66 | Annual Report Franklin Templeton Fund Allocator Series NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) 7. REGULATORY AND LITIGATION MATTERS (CONTINUED) payments to securities dealers who sell fund shares ("marketing support"), Franklin Resources, Inc. and certain of its subsidiaries (collectively, the "Company"), entered into settlements with certain of those regulators and governmental entities. Specifically, the Company entered into settlements with the SEC, among others, concerning market timing and marketing support. On June 6, 2007, the SEC posted for public comment the proposed plan of distribution for the market timing settlement. Once the SEC approves the final plan of distribution, disbursements of settlement monies will be made promptly to individuals who were shareholders of the designated funds during the relevant period, in accordance with the terms and conditions of the settlement and plan. In addition, the Company, as well as most of the mutual funds within Franklin Templeton Investments and certain current or former officers, Company directors, fund directors, and employees, have been named in private lawsuits (styled as shareholder class actions, or as derivative actions on behalf of either the named funds or Franklin Resources, Inc.). The lawsuits relate to the industry practices referenced above. The Company and fund management believe that the claims made in each of the private lawsuits referenced above are without merit and intend to defend against them vigorously. The Company cannot predict with certainty the eventual outcome of these lawsuits, nor whether they will have a material negative impact on the Company. If it is determined that the Company bears responsibility for any unlawful or inappropriate conduct that caused losses to the Trust, it is committed to making the Trust or its shareholders whole, as appropriate. 8. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENT In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued FASB Statement No. 157, "Fair Value Measurement" ("SFAS 157"), which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Trust believes the adoption of SFAS 157 will have no material impact on its financial statements. Annual Report | 67 Franklin Templeton Fund Allocator Series REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM TO THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES AND SHAREHOLDERS OF FRANKLIN TEMPLETON FUND ALLOCATOR SERIES In our opinion, the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the statements of investments, and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Franklin Templeton Conservative Target Fund, Franklin Templeton Moderate Target Fund and Franklin Templeton Growth Target Fund (separate portfolios of Franklin Templeton Fund Allocator Series, hereafter referred to as the "Funds") at December 31, 2007, the results of each of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in each of their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the periods presented, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as "financial statements") are the responsibility of the Funds' management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of investments in the Underlying Funds at December 31, 2007 by correspondence with the transfer agent of the Underlying Funds, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

SPECIALIZED EXPERTISE Each of our portfolio management groups operates autonomously, relying on its own research and staying true to the unique investment disciplines that underlie its success. FRANKLIN. Founded in 1947, Franklin is a recognized leader in fixed income investing and also brings expertise in growth- and value-style U.S. equity investing. TEMPLETON. Founded in 1940, Templeton pioneered international investing and, in 1954, launched what has become the industry's oldest global fund. Today, with offices in over 25 countries, Templeton offers investors a truly global perspective. MUTUAL SERIES. Founded in 1949, Mutual Series is dedicated to a unique style of value investing, searching aggressively for opportunity among what it believes are undervalued stocks, as well as arbitrage situations and distressed securities. TRUE DIVERSIFICATION Because our management groups work independently and adhere to different investment approaches, Franklin, Templeton and Mutual Series funds typically have distinct portfolios. That's why our funds can be used to build truly diversified allocation plans covering every major asset class. RELIABILITY YOU CAN TRUST At Franklin Templeton Investments, we seek to consistently provide investors with exceptional risk-adjusted returns over the long term, as well as the reliable, accurate and personal service that has helped us become one of the most trusted names in financial services. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- MUTUAL FUNDS | RETIREMENT PLANS | 529 COLLEGE SAVINGS PLANS | SEPARATE ACCOUNTS - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [GRAPHIC OMITTED] Not part of the annual report Contents SHAREHOLDER LETTER ........................................................ 1 ANNUAL REPORT Economic and Market Overview .............................................. 3 Franklin Templeton Corefolio Allocation Fund .............................. 5 Franklin Templeton Founding Funds Allocation Fund ......................... 14 Franklin Templeton Perspectives Allocation Fund ........................... 23 Financial Highlights and Statements of Investments ........................ 32 Financial Statements ...................................................... 49 Notes to Financial Statements ............................................. 55 Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm ................... 65 Tax Designation ........................................................... 66 Board Members and Officers ................................................ 67 Shareholder Information ................................................... 72 Annual Report Economic and Market Overview During the 12 months ended December 31, 2007, the U.S. economy advanced at a moderate but uneven pace. After slow first quarter growth, gross domestic product (GDP) advanced solidly in the second quarter, supported by federal defense spending, accelerating exports and declining imports, and greater business spending. In the third quarter, growth accelerated despite a struggling housing market and the abrupt unraveling of the subprime mortgage market. The housing downturn affected the overall economy by fourth quarter 2007 when GDP growth decelerated as credit conditions worsened and consumer spending slowed. Consumer confidence declined through period-end largely due to rising mortgage and fuel costs, falling home prices and a weaker job market. Oil prices were volatile and established a new record high in November, nearing $99 per barrel. For the 12 months ended December 31, 2007, the core Consumer Price Index (CPI), which excludes food and energy costs, rose 2.4%, which was higher than its 10-year average rate. 1 Facing the prospect of slower economic growth, the Federal Reserve Board lowered the federal funds target rate to 4.25% from 5.25% during the period. As investors fled riskier, poorer-performing assets, U.S. Treasuries rallied and the 10-year Treasury note yield fell from 4.71% at the beginning of the period to 4.04% on December 31, 2007. The global economy remained resilient despite elevated energy prices and widespread fears of contagion from the deteriorating U.S. housing situation. Consumer and corporate demand strength (particularly in China and other developing economies), generally favorable employment and accommodative monetary policies continued to underpin the current global expansionary period that began in 2002. These factors also contributed to the strength of global equity markets during 2007. However, concerns about slower growth and declining asset quality surfaced in the first quarter. Initially centered on the U.S. subprime mortgage 1. Source: Bureau of Labor Statistics. Annual Report | 3 market, they spread in August to global capital markets. Difficulties in assessing risk and the value of collateral in the structured finance industry contributed to declining risk appetite among lenders and investors. The private equity industry, which relies on the availability of cheap credit, played a pivotal role in several large and high-profile acquisitions, helped boost merger and acquisition activity in the first half of 2007, and was an important driver of equity performance. A second-half tightening of liquidity led to slower deal activity and weighed on market performance. However, in 2007, global merger and acquisition activity still reached record levels. To alleviate the credit crunch and restore investor confidence, the world's major central banks infused capital into the system. However, credit and equity markets continued to face headwinds as write-downs and losses from subprime mortgage financing affected many large financial institutions toward the end of the year, and equity prices remained volatile. For the year, however, global and non-U.S. equity markets registered the fifth consecutive year of double-digit total returns. Broad-based stock performance by European and Asian shares at least doubled that of U.S. stocks, while emerging market equity returns more than tripled those in developed markets. In addition, U.S. dollar weakness versus the currencies of many major trading partners enhanced equity returns for U.S.-based investors holding stocks denominated in these currencies.

PERFORMANCE OVERVIEW Franklin Templeton Corefolio Allocation Fund - Class A posted a +5.20% cumulative total return for the 12 months under review. The Fund underper-formed its hybrid benchmark, which comprised a weighted combination of the Standard & Poor's 500 Index (S&P 500) and the Morgan Stanley Capital International (MSCI) World Index. For the reporting period, the hybrid benchmark's total return was +6.51%. 1 You can find other performance data in the Performance Summary beginning on page 7. INVESTMENT STRATEGY The Fund invests its assets in an equally weighted combination of Franklin Capital Growth Fund, Franklin Growth Fund, Mutual Shares Fund and Templeton Growth Fund. These underlying funds, in turn, invest primarily in U.S. and foreign equity securities and, to a lesser extent, fixed income and money market securities. As market conditions affect the underlying funds, we rebalance the Fund's allocations to maintain the predetermined equal weightings of approximately 25% of total net assets in each underlying fund whenever the actual allocations exceed plus or minus 3% of the fixed allocation percentages. 1. Source: Standard & Poor's Micropal. The S&P 500 consists of 500 stocks chosen for market size, liquidity and industry group representation. Each stock's weight in the index is proportionate to its market value. The S&P 500 is one of the most widely used benchmarks of U.S. equity performance. The MSCI World Index is a free float-adjusted, market capitalization-weighted index designed to measure equity market performance in global developed markets. The benchmark index's weightings are as follows: S&P 500 75% and MSCI World Index 25%. The indexes are unmanaged and include reinvested distributions. One cannot invest directly in an index, nor is an index representative of the Fund's portfolio. THE DOLLAR VALUE, NUMBER OF SHARES OR PRINCIPAL AMOUNT, AND NAMES OF ALL PORTFOLIO HOLDINGS ARE LISTED IN THE FUND'S STATEMENT OF INVESTMENTS (SOI). THE SOI BEGINS ON PAGE 37. Annual Report | 5 ASSET ALLOCATION* Franklin Templeton Corefolio Allocation Fund Based on Total Net Assets as of 12/31/07 [THE FOLLOWING TABLE WAS REPRESENTED BY A BAR CHART IN THE PRINTED MATERIAL.] Domestic Equity 75.3% Foreign Equity 24.6% Short-Term Investments & Other Net Assets 0.1% * The asset allocation is based on the SOI, which classifies each underlying fund into a broad asset class. PORTFOLIO REVIEW The Fund's performance can be attributed largely to maintaining a relatively static allocation among domestic and foreign equities, fixed income securities, and short-term investments and other net assets, and by the actual performance of the selected underlying funds. During the fiscal year under review, the Fund's performance benefited most from Franklin Capital Growth Fund - Advisor Class and Franklin Growth Fund - Advisor Class. Mutual Shares Fund - Class Z and Templeton Growth Fund - Advisor Class produced positive results but underperformed the Fund's hybrid benchmark index.

Annual Report | 11 Your Fund's Expenses FRANKLIN TEMPLETON COREFOLIO ALLOCATION FUND As a Fund shareholder, you can incur two types of costs: o Transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on Fund purchases and redemption fees; and o Ongoing Fund costs, including management fees, distribution and service (12b-1) fees, and other Fund expenses. All mutual funds have ongoing costs, sometimes referred to as operating expenses. The following table shows ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and can help you understand these costs and compare them with those of other mutual funds. The table assumes a $1,000 investment held for the six months indicated. ACTUAL FUND EXPENSES The first line (Actual) for each share class listed in 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 Fund expenses. You can estimate the expenses you paid 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 "Expenses Paid During Period." IF EXPENSES PAID DURING PERIOD WERE $7.50, THEN 8.6 X $7.50 = $64.50. In this illustration, the estimated expenses paid this period are $64.50. HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON WITH OTHER FUNDS Information in the second line (Hypothetical) for each class in the table can help you compare ongoing costs of investing in the Fund with those of other mutual funds. This information may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid during the period. The hypothetical "Ending Account Value" is based on the actual expense ratio for each class and an assumed 5% annual rate of return before expenses, which does not represent the Fund's actual return. The figure under the heading "Expenses Paid 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. 12 | Annual Report Your Fund's Expenses (CONTINUED) PLEASE NOTE THAT EXPENSES SHOWN IN THE TABLE ARE MEANT TO HIGHLIGHT ONGOING COSTS AND DO NOT REFLECT ANY TRANSACTION COSTS, SUCH AS SALES CHARGES OR REDEMPTION FEES. Therefore, the second line for each class is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you compare total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if transaction costs were included, your total costs would have been higher. Please refer to the Fund prospectus for additional information on operating expenses. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- BEGINNING ACCOUNT ENDING ACCOUNT EXPENSES PAID DURING CLASS A VALUE 7/1/07 VALUE 12/31/07 PERIOD* 7/1/07-12/31/07 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Actual $1,000 $ 971.90 $2.44 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hypothetical (5% return before expenses) $1,000 $1,022.74 $2.50 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CLASS B - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Actual $1,000 $ 968.70 $5.86 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hypothetical (5% return before expenses) $1,000 $1,019.26 $6.01 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CLASS C - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Actual $1,000 $ 969.20 $5.81 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hypothetical (5% return before expenses) $1,000 $1,019.31 $5.96 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CLASS R - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Actual $1,000 $ 971.30 $3.38 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hypothetical (5% return before expenses) $1,000 $1,021.78 $3.47 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ADVISOR CLASS - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Actual $1,000 $ 973.80 $0.90 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hypothetical (5% return before expenses) $1,000 $1,024.30 $0.92 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- * Expenses are calculated using the most recent six-month expense ratio excluding expenses of the underlying funds, net of expense waivers, annualized for each class (A: 0.49%; B: 1.18%; C: 1.17%; R: 0.68%; and Advisor: 0.18%), multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 184/365 to reflect the one-half year period.

PERFORMANCE OVERVIEW Franklin Templeton Founding Funds Allocation Fund - Class A posted a +3.12% cumulative total return for the 12 months under review. The Fund underperformed its hybrid benchmark, which comprised a weighted combination of the Standard & Poor's 500 Index (S&P 500) and the Morgan Stanley Capital International (MSCI) World Index. For the reporting period, the hybrid benchmark's total return was +6.83%. 1 You can find other performance data in the Performance Summary beginning on page 16. INVESTMENT STRATEGY The Fund invests its assets in an equally weighted combination of Franklin Income Fund, Mutual Shares Fund and Templeton Growth Fund. These underlying funds, in turn, invest primarily in U.S. and foreign equity securities and, to a lesser extent, fixed income and money market securities. As market conditions affect the underlying funds, we rebalance the Fund's allocations to maintain the predetermined equal weightings of approximately 33 1/3% of total net assets in each underlying fund whenever the actual allocations exceed plus or minus 3% of the fixed allocation percentages. 1.

The benchmark index's weightings are as follows: S&P 500 67% and MSCI World Index 33%. The indexes are unmanaged and include reinvested distributions. One cannot invest directly in an index, nor is an index representative of the Fund's portfolio. THE DOLLAR VALUE, NUMBER OF SHARES OR PRINCIPAL AMOUNT, AND NAMES OF ALL PORTFOLIO HOLDINGS ARE LISTED IN THE FUND'S STATEMENT OF INVESTMENTS (SOI). THE SOI BEGINS ON PAGE 43. 14 | Annual Report PORTFOLIO REVIEW The Fund's performance can be attributed largely to maintaining a relatively static allocation among domestic and foreign equities, fixed income securities, and short-term investments and other net assets, and by the actual performance of the selected underlying funds. During the fiscal year under review, Franklin Income Fund - Advisor Class, Mutual Shares Fund - Class Z and Templeton Growth Fund -Advisor Class produced positive results, but underperformed the Fund's hybrid benchmark index. Thank you for your continued participation in Franklin Templeton Founding Funds Allocation Fund. We look forward to serving your future investment needs. [PHOTO OMITTED] /s/ T. Anthony Coffey T.

All mutual funds have ongoing costs, sometimes referred to as operating expenses. The following table shows ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and can help you understand these costs and compare them with those of other mutual funds. The table assumes a $1,000 investment held for the six months indicated. ACTUAL FUND EXPENSES The first line (Actual) for each share class listed in 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 Fund expenses. You can estimate the expenses you paid 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 "Expenses Paid During Period." IF EXPENSES PAID DURING PERIOD WERE $7.50, THEN 8.6 X $7.50 = $64.50. In this illustration, the estimated expenses paid this period are $64.50. HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON WITH OTHER FUNDS Information in the second line (Hypothetical) for each class in the table can help you compare ongoing costs of investing in the Fund with those of other mutual funds. This information may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid during the period. The hypothetical "Ending Account Value" is based on the actual expense ratio for each class and an assumed 5% annual rate of return before expenses, which does not represent the Fund's actual return. The figure under the heading "Expenses Paid 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. Annual Report | 21 Your Fund's Expenses (CONTINUED) PLEASE NOTE THAT EXPENSES SHOWN IN THE TABLE ARE MEANT TO HIGHLIGHT ONGOING COSTS AND DO NOT REFLECT ANY TRANSACTION COSTS, SUCH AS SALES CHARGES OR REDEMPTION FEES. Therefore, the second line for each class is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you compare total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if transaction costs were included, your total costs would have been higher. Please refer to the Fund prospectus for additional information on operating expenses. - ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- BEGINNING ACCOUNT ENDING ACCOUNT EXPENSES PAID DURING CLASS A VALUE 7/1/07 VALUE 12/31/07 PERIOD* 7/1/07-12/31/07 - ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Actual $1,000 $ 962.20 $2.42 - ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hypothetical (5% return before expenses) $1,000 $1,022.74 $2.50 - ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CLASS B - ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Actual $1,000 $ 958.80 $5.88 - ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hypothetical (5% return before expenses) $1,000 $1,019.21 $6.06 - ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CLASS C - ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Actual $1,000 $ 959.20 $5.88 - ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hypothetical (5% return before expenses) $1,000 $1,019.21 $6.06 - ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CLASS R - ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Actual $1,000 $ 961.10 $3.41 - ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hypothetical (5% return before expenses) $1,000 $1,021.73 $3.52 - ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ADVISOR CLASS - ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Actual $1,000 $ 963.40 $0.94 - ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hypothetical (5% return before expenses) $1,000 $1,024.25 $0.97 - ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- * Expenses are calculated using the most recent six-month expense ratio excluding expenses of the underlying funds, net of expense waivers, annualized for each class (A: 0.49%; B: 1.19%; C: 1.19%; R: 0.69%; and Advisor: 0.19%), multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 184/365 to reflect the one-half year period. 22 | Annual Report Franklin Templeton Perspectives Allocation Fund YOUR FUND'S GOAL AND MAIN INVESTMENTS: Franklin Templeton Perspectives Allocation Fund seeks capital appreciation through investments in an equally weighted combination of Franklin Flex Cap Growth Fund, Mutual Shares Fund and Templeton Growth Fund. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PERFORMANCE DATA REPRESENT PAST PERFORMANCE, WHICH DOES NOT GUARANTEE FUTURE RESULTS.

PERFORMANCE OVERVIEW Franklin Templeton Perspectives Allocation Fund - Class A posted a +6.79% cumulative total return for the 12 months under review. The Fund performed comparably to its hybrid benchmark, which comprised a weighted combination of the Standard & Poor's 500 Index (S&P 500) and the Morgan Stanley Capital International (MSCI) World Index. For the reporting period, the hybrid benchmark's total return was +6.83%. 1 You can find other performance data in the Performance Summary beginning on page 25. INVESTMENT STRATEGY The Fund invests its assets in an equally weighted combination of Franklin Flex Cap Growth Fund, Mutual Shares Fund and Templeton Growth Fund. These underlying funds, in turn, invest primarily in U.S. and foreign equity securities and, to a lesser extent, fixed income and money market securities. As market conditions affect the underlying funds, we rebalance the Fund's allocations to maintain the predetermined equal weightings of approximately 33 1/3% of total net assets in each underlying fund whenever the actual allocations exceed plus or minus 3% of the fixed allocation percentages. 1. Source: Standard & Poor's Micropal. The S&P 500 consists of 500 stocks chosen for market size, liquidity and industry group representation. Each stock's weight in the index is proportionate to its market value. The S&P 500 is one of the most widely used benchmarks of U.S. equity performance. The MSCI World Index is a free float-adjusted, market capitalization-weighted index designed to measure equity market performance in global developed markets. The benchmark index's weightings are as follows: S&P 500 67% and MSCI World Index 33%. The indexes are unmanaged and include reinvested distributions. One cannot invest directly in an index, nor is an index representative of the Fund's portfolio. THE DOLLAR VALUE, NUMBER OF SHARES OR PRINCIPAL AMOUNT, AND NAMES OF ALL PORTFOLIO HOLDINGS ARE LISTED IN THE FUND'S STATEMENT OF INVESTMENTS (SOI). THE SOI BEGINS ON PAGE 48. Annual Report | 23 ASSET ALLOCATION* Franklin Templeton Perspectives Allocation Fund Based on Total Net Assets as of 12/31/07 [THE FOLLOWING TABLE WAS REPRESENTED BY A BAR CHART IN THE PRINTED MATERIAL.] Domestic Equity 66.7% Foreign Equity 33.0% Short-Term Investments & Other Net Assets 0.3% * The asset allocation is based on the SOI, which classifies each underlying fund into a broad asset class. PORTFOLIO REVIEW The Fund's performance can be attributed largely to maintaining a relatively static allocation among domestic and foreign equities, fixed income securities, and short-term investments and other net assets, and by the actual performance of the selected underlying funds. During the fiscal year under review, the Fund's performance benefited most from Franklin Flex Cap Growth Fund - Advisor Class and Franklin Growth Fund - Advisor Class. Templeton Growth Fund - Advisor Class produced positive results but underperformed the Fund's hybrid benchmark index. Thank you for your continued participation in Franklin Templeton Perspectives Allocation Fund. We look forward to serving your future investment needs. [PHOTO OMITTED] /s/ T. Anthony Coffey T.

Annual Report | 29 Your Fund's Expenses FRANKLIN TEMPLETON PERSPECTIVES ALLOCATION FUND As a Fund shareholder, you can incur two types of costs: o Transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on Fund purchases and redemption fees; and o Ongoing Fund costs, including management fees, distribution and service (12b-1) fees, and other Fund expenses. All mutual funds have ongoing costs, sometimes referred to as operating expenses. The following table shows ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and can help you understand these costs and compare them with those of other mutual funds. The table assumes a $1,000 investment held for the six months indicated. ACTUAL FUND EXPENSES The first line (Actual) for each share class listed in 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 Fund expenses. You can estimate the expenses you paid 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 "Expenses Paid During Period." IF EXPENSES PAID DURING PERIOD WERE $7.50, THEN 8.6 X $7.50 = $64.50. In this illustration, the estimated expenses paid this period are $64.50. HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON WITH OTHER FUNDS Information in the second line (Hypothetical) for each class in the table can help you compare ongoing costs of investing in the Fund with those of other mutual funds. This information may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid during the period. The hypothetical "Ending Account Value" is based on the actual expense ratio for each class and an assumed 5% annual rate of return before expenses, which does not represent the Fund's actual return. The figure under the heading "Expenses Paid 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. 30 | Annual Report Your Fund's Expenses (CONTINUED) PLEASE NOTE THAT EXPENSES SHOWN IN THE TABLE ARE MEANT TO HIGHLIGHT ONGOING COSTS AND DO NOT REFLECT ANY TRANSACTION COSTS, SUCH AS SALES CHARGES OR REDEMPTION FEES. Therefore, the second line for each class is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you compare total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if transaction costs were included, your total costs would have been higher. Please refer to the Fund prospectus for additional information on operating expenses. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- BEGINNING ACCOUNT ENDING ACCOUNT EXPENSES PAID DURING CLASS A VALUE 7/1/07 VALUE 12/31/07 PERIOD* 7/1/07-12/31/07 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Actual $1,000 $ 985.20 $2.45 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hypothetical (5% return before expenses) $1,000 $1,022.74 $2.50 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CLASS C - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Actual $1,000 $ 982.10 $5.90 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hypothetical (5% return before expenses) $1,000 $1,019.26 $6.01 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CLASS R - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Actual $1,000 $ 984.70 $3.45 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hypothetical (5% return before expenses) $1,000 $1,021.73 $3.52 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ADVISOR CLASS - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Actual $1,000 $ 988.30 $0.90 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hypothetical (5% return before expenses) $1,000 $1,024.30 $0.92 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- * Expenses are calculated using the most recent six-month expense ratio excluding expenses of the underlying funds, net of expense waivers, annualized for each class (A: 0.49%; C: 1.18%; R: 0.69%; and Advisor: 0.18%), multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 184/365 to reflect the one-half year period.

ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Franklin Templeton Fund Allocator Series (Trust) is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, (1940 Act) as an open-end investment company, consisting of ten separate funds. All funds included in this report (Funds) are diversified. The financial statements of the remaining funds in the Trust are presented separately. The Funds invest primarily in Franklin Templeton mutual funds (Underlying Funds). The classes of shares offered within each of the funds are indicated below. Each class of shares differs by its initial sales load, contingent deferred sales charges, distribution fees, voting rights on matters affecting a single class and its exchange privilege. - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CLASS A, CLASS B, CLASS C, CLASS R & ADVISOR CLASS CLASS A, CLASS C, CLASS R & ADVISOR CLASS - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Franklin Templeton Corefolio Allocation Fund Franklin Templeton Perspectives Allocation Fund Franklin Templeton Founding Funds Allocation Fund The following summarizes the Funds' significant accounting policies. A. SECURITY VALUATION Net asset value per share is calculated as of the close of trading of the NYSE. Investments in the Underlying Funds are valued at their closing net asset value each trading day. B. INCOME TAXES No provision has been made for U.S. income taxes because it is each fund's policy to qualify as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code and to distribute to shareholders substantially all of its taxable income and net realized gains. C. 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 and realized gain distributions by Underlying Funds are recorded on 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. Annual Report | 55 Franklin Templeton Fund Allocator Series NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) 1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) C. SECURITY TRANSACTIONS, INVESTMENT INCOME, EXPENSES AND DISTRIBUTIONS (CONTINUED) The Funds indirectly bear their proportionate share of expenses from the Underlying Funds. Since the Underlying Funds have varied expense levels and the Funds may own different proportions of the Underlying Funds at different times, the amount of expenses incurred indirectly by the Funds will vary. Realized and unrealized gains and losses and net investment income, other than 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. D. 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. E. REDEMPTION FEES A short term trading redemption fee will be imposed, with some exceptions, on any fund shares that are redeemed or exchanged within seven calendar days following their purchase date. The redemption fee is 2% of the amount redeemed. Such fees are retained by the Funds and accounted for as an addition to paid-in capital. F. 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 Funds, 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. 56 | Annual Report Franklin Templeton Fund Allocator Series NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) 2.

On June 6, 2007, the SEC posted for public comment the proposed plan of distribution for the market timing settlement. Once the SEC approves the final plan of distribution, disbursements of settlement monies will be made promptly to individuals who were shareholders of the designated funds during the relevant period, in accordance with the terms and conditions of the settlement and plan. In addition, the Company, as well as most of the mutual funds within Franklin Templeton Investments and certain current or former officers, Company directors, fund directors, and employees, have been named in private lawsuits (styled as shareholder class actions, or as derivative actions on behalf of either the named funds or Franklin Resources, Inc.). The lawsuits relate to the industry practices referenced above. Annual Report | 63 Franklin Templeton Fund Allocator Series NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) 7. REGULATORY AND LITIGATION MATTERS (CONTINUED) The Company and fund management believe that the claims made in each of the private lawsuits referenced above are without merit and intend to defend against them vigorously. The Company cannot predict with certainty the eventual outcome of these lawsuits, nor whether they will have a material negative impact on the Company. If it is determined that the Company bears responsibility for any unlawful or inappropriate conduct that caused losses to the Trust, it is committed to making the Trust or its shareholders whole, as appropriate. 8. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENT In September 2006, Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued FASB Statement No. 157, "Fair Value Measurement" (SFAS 157), which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Trust believes the adoption of SFAS 157 will have no material impact on its financial statements. 64 | Annual Report Franklin Templeton Fund Allocator Series REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM TO THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES AND SHAREHOLDERS OF THE FRANKLIN TEMPLETON FUND ALLOCATOR SERIES In our opinion, the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the statements of investments, and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Franklin Templeton Corefolio Allocation Fund, Franklin Templeton Founding Funds Allocation Fund, and Franklin Templeton Perspectives Allocation Fund (separate portfolios of Franklin Templeton Fund Allocator Series, hereafter referred to as the "Funds") at December 31, 2007, the results of each of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in each of their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as "financial statements") are the responsibility of the Funds' management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at December 31, 2007 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

SPECIALIZED EXPERTISE Each of our portfolio management groups operates autonomously, relying on its own research and staying true to the unique investment disciplines that underlie its success. FRANKLIN. Founded in 1947, Franklin is a recognized leader in fixed income investing and also brings expertise in growth- and value-style U.S. equity investing. TEMPLETON. Founded in 1940, Templeton pioneered international investing and, in 1954, launched what has become the industry's oldest global fund. Today, with offices in over 25 countries, Templeton offers investors a truly global perspective. MUTUAL SERIES. Founded in 1949, Mutual Series is dedicated to a unique style of value investing, searching aggressively for opportunity among what it believes are undervalued stocks, as well as arbitrage situations and distressed securities. TRUE DIVERSIFICATION Because our management groups work independently and adhere to different investment approaches, Franklin, Templeton and Mutual Series funds typically have distinct portfolios. That's why our funds can be used to build truly diversified allocation plans covering every major asset class. RELIABILITY YOU CAN TRUST At Franklin Templeton Investments, we seek to consistently provide investors with exceptional risk-adjusted returns over the long term, as well as the reliable, accurate and personal service that has helped us become one of the most trusted names in financial services. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- MUTUAL FUNDS | RETIREMENT PLANS | 529 COLLEGE SAVINGS PLANS | SEPARATE ACCOUNTS - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [GRAPHIC OMITTED] Not part of the annual report Contents SHAREHOLDER LETTER ........................................................ 1 ANNUAL REPORT Economic and Market Overview .............................................. 3 Franklin Templeton 2015 Retirement Target Fund ............................ 5 Franklin Templeton 2025 Retirement Target Fund ............................ 15 Franklin Templeton 2035 Retirement Target Fund ............................ 25 Franklin Templeton 2045 Retirement Target Fund ............................ 35 Financial Highlights and Statements of Investments ........................ 45 Financial Statements ...................................................... 65 Notes to Financial Statements ............................................. 70 Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm ................... 80 Tax Designation ........................................................... 81 Board Members and Officers ................................................ 82 Shareholder Information ................................................... 87 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Annual Report Economic and Market Overview During the 12 months ended December 31, 2007, the U.S. economy advanced at a moderate but uneven pace. After slow first quarter growth, gross domestic product (GDP) advanced solidly in the second quarter, supported by federal defense spending, accelerating exports and declining imports, and greater business spending. In the third quarter, growth accelerated despite a struggling housing market and the abrupt unraveling of the subprime mortgage market. The housing downturn affected the overall economy by fourth quarter 2007 when GDP growth decelerated as credit conditions worsened and consumer spending slowed. Consumer confidence declined through period-end largely due to rising mortgage and fuel costs, falling home prices and a weaker job market. Oil prices were volatile and established a new record high in November, nearing $99 per barrel. For the 12 months ended December 31, 2007, the core Consumer Price Index (CPI), which excludes food and energy costs, rose 2.4%, which was higher than its 10-year average rate. 1 Facing the prospect of slower economic growth, the Federal Reserve Board lowered the federal funds target rate to 4.25% from 5.25% during the period. As investors fled riskier, poorer-performing assets, U.S. Treasuries rallied and the 10-year Treasury note yield fell from 4.71% at the beginning of the period to 4.04% on December 31, 2007. The global economy remained resilient despite elevated energy prices and widespread fears of contagion from the deteriorating U.S. housing situation. Consumer and corporate demand strength, particularly in China and other developing economies, generally favorable employment and accommodative monetary policies continued to underpin the current global expansionary period that began in 2002. These factors also contributed to the strength of global equity markets during 2007. However, concerns about slower growth and declining asset quality surfaced in the first quarter. Initially centered on the U.S. subprime mortgage market, they spread in August to global capital markets. Difficulties in assessing risk and the value of collateral in the structured finance industry contributed 1. Source: Bureau of Labor Statistics. Annual Report | 3 to declining risk appetite among lenders and investors. The private equity industry, which relies on the availability of cheap credit, played a pivotal role in several large and high-profile acquisitions, helped boost merger and acquisition activity in the first half of 2007, and was an important driver of equity performance. A second-half tightening of liquidity led to slower deal activity and weighed on market performance. However, in 2007, global merger and acquisition activity still reached record levels. To alleviate the credit crunch and restore investor confidence, the world's major central banks infused capital into the system. However, credit and equity markets continued to face headwinds as write-downs and losses from subprime mortgage financing affected many large financial institutions toward the end of the year, and equity prices remained volatile. For the year, however, global and non-U.S. equity markets registered the fifth consecutive year of double-digit total returns. Broad-based stock performance by European and Asian shares at least doubled that of U.S. stocks, while emerging market equity returns more than tripled those in developed markets. In addition, U.S. dollar weakness versus the currencies of many major trading partners enhanced equity returns for U.S.-based investors holding stocks denominated in these currencies.

INVESTMENT STRATEGY When selecting equity funds, we consider the underlying funds' foreign and domestic exposure, market capitalization ranges, and investment style (growth vs. value). When selecting fixed income funds, our primary focus is on maximizing income appropriate to the Fund's risk profile. In evaluating the risk level of the underlying funds, we analyze such factors as: (a) relative and absolute performance, including correlations with other underlying funds as well as corresponding benchmarks, and (b) their volatility (the variability of returns from one period to the next). We attempt to invest the assets of each target fund in the same underlying funds and will vary the underlying funds' allocation percentages based upon each fund's risk/return level. We change the Fund's target asset allocation gradually over time, and it becomes increasingly conservative as the stated target date draws near. MANAGER'S DISCUSSION The Fund's performance can be attributed largely to its allocation among equities, fixed income securities, and short-term investments and other net assets, and by the actual performance of the selected underlying funds. This allocation shifts every year, in accordance with the retirement date associated with the portfolio. 1. Sources: Standard & Poor's Micropal; Lehman Brothers Inc. The S&P 500 consists of 500 stocks chosen for market size, liquidity and industry group representation. Each stock's weight in the index is proportionate to its market value. The S&P 500 is one of the most widely used benchmarks of U.S. equity performance. The MSCI EAFE Index is a free float-adjusted, market capitalization-weighted index designed to measure equity market performance in global developed markets excluding the U.S. and Canada. The LB U.S. Aggregate Index represents securities that are SEC-registered, taxable and dollar denominated. The index covers the U.S. investment grade fixed-rate bond market, with index components for government and corporate securities, mortgage pass-through securities and asset-backed securities. All issues included must have at least one year to final maturity and must be rated investment grade (Baa3 or better) by Moody's Investors Service. They must also be dollar denominated and nonconvertible. Total return includes price appreciation/depreciation and income as a percentage of the original investment. The index is rebalanced monthly by market capitalization. The P&R 90 Day U.S. T-Bill Index is a total return index based on a constant maturity instrument. Payden & Rygel includes both accrued interest and change in market price in its monthly total return calculations. The value of Treasuries, if held to maturity, is fixed; principal is guaranteed and interest is fixed. The indexes are unmanaged and include reinvested distributions. One cannot invest directly in an index, nor is an index representative of the Fund's portfolio. 6 | Annual Report At period-end, Franklin Templeton 2015 Retirement Target Fund's domestic equity exposure was 68.5% of its total equity weighting, with the balance represented by foreign equity. The portfolio was diversified across capitalization sizes and investment styles, and on December 31, 2007, we held shares in large-, mid- and small-capitalization equity funds, representing both growth and value styles. Mutual Shares Fund - Class Z, representing 13.5% of the Fund's total net assets, was our largest equity fund weighting at period-end. On the fixed income side, domestic exposure was 65.5% of the Fund's total fixed income weighting, with the balance represented by foreign fixed income. Templeton Global Bond Fund - Advisor Class was our largest fixed income fund weighting at 8.2% of total net assets. Our largest domestic growth fund holding, Franklin Flex Cap Growth Fund - Advisor Class, outperformed the S&P 500, while our largest domestic value fund holding, Mutual Shares Fund - Class Z, underperformed the S&P 500. Our largest foreign equity holding, Mutual European Fund - Class Z, outperformed the MSCI EAFE Index. On the fixed income side, Templeton Global Bond Fund - Advisor Class outperformed the LB U.S. Aggregate Index, while Franklin U.S. Government Securities Fund - Advisor Class underperformed the LB U.S. Aggregate Index.

TYPICALLY, THE MORE AGGRESSIVE THE INVESTMENT, OR THE GREATER THE POTENTIAL RETURN, THE MORE RISK INVOLVED. GENERALLY, INVESTORS SHOULD BE COMFORTABLE WITH SOME FLUCTUATION IN THE VALUE OF THEIR INVESTMENTS, ESPECIALLY OVER THE SHORT TERM. STOCKS HAVE HISTORICALLY OUTPERFORMED OTHER ASSET CLASSES OVER THE LONG TERM, BUT THEY TEND TO FLUCTUATE MORE DRAMATICALLY OVER THE SHORTER TERM. BECAUSE THE FUND INVESTS IN UNDERLYING FUNDS, WHICH MAY ENGAGE IN A VARIETY OF INVESTMENT STRATEGIES INVOLVING CERTAIN RISKS, THE FUND MAY BE SUBJECT TO THOSE SAME RISKS. THE FUND'S PROSPECTUS ALSO INCLUDES A DESCRIPTION OF THE MAIN INVESTMENT RISKS. CLASS C: These shares have higher annual fees and expenses than Class A shares. CLASS R: Shares are available to certain eligible investors as described in the prospectus. These shares have higher annual fees and expenses than Class A shares. ADVISOR CLASS: Shares are available to certain eligible investors as described in the prospectus. 1. If the manager had not waived fees, the Fund's total returns would have been lower. 2. Cumulative total return represents the change in value of an investment over the periods indicated. 3. Average annual total return represents the average annual change in value of an investment over the periods indicated. 4. These figures represent the value of a hypothetical $10,000 investment in the Fund over the periods indicated. 5. Figures are as stated in the Fund's prospectus current as of the date of this report. 6. Sources: Standard & Poor's Micropal; Lehman Brothers Inc.

All mutual funds have ongoing costs, sometimes referred to as operating expenses. The following table shows ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and can help you understand these costs and compare them with those of other mutual funds. The table assumes a $1,000 investment held for the six months indicated. ACTUAL FUND EXPENSES The first line (Actual) for each share class listed in 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 Fund expenses. You can estimate the expenses you paid 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 "Expenses Paid During Period." IF EXPENSES PAID DURING PERIOD WERE $7.50, THEN 8.6 X $7.50 = $64.50. In this illustration, the estimated expenses paid this period are $64.50. HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON WITH OTHER FUNDS Information in the second line (Hypothetical) for each class in the table can help you compare ongoing costs of investing in the Fund with those of other mutual funds. This information may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid during the period. The hypothetical "Ending Account Value" is based on the actual expense ratio for each class and an assumed 5% annual rate of return before expenses, which does not represent the Fund's actual return. The figure under the heading "Expenses Paid 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. Annual Report | 13 Your Fund's Expenses (CONTINUED) PLEASE NOTE THAT EXPENSES SHOWN IN THE TABLE ARE MEANT TO HIGHLIGHT ONGOING COSTS AND DO NOT REFLECT ANY TRANSACTION COSTS, SUCH AS SALES CHARGES OR REDEMPTION FEES. Therefore, the second line for each class is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you compare total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if transaction costs were included, your total costs would have been higher. Please refer to the Fund prospectus for additional information on operating expenses. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- BEGINNING ACCOUNT ENDING ACCOUNT EXPENSES PAID DURING CLASS A VALUE 7/1/07 VALUE 12/31/07 PERIOD* 7/1/07-12/31/07 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Actual $1,000 $1,020.10 $2.44 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hypothetical (5% return before expenses) $1,000 $1,022.79 $2.45 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CLASS C - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Actual $1,000 $1,016.80 $5.95 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hypothetical (5% return before expenses) $1,000 $1,019.31 $5.96 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CLASS R - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Actual $1,000 $1,018.00 $3.41 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hypothetical (5% return before expenses) $1,000 $1,021.83 $3.41 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ADVISOR CLASS - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Actual $1,000 $1,021.70 $0.87 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hypothetical (5% return before expenses) $1,000 $1,024.35 $0.87 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- * Expenses are calculated using the most recent six-month expense ratio excluding expenses of the underlying funds, net of expense waivers, annualized for each class (A: 0.48%; C: 1.17%; R: 0.67%; and Advisor: 0.17%), multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 184/365 to reflect the one-half year period. 14 | Annual Report Franklin Templeton 2025 Retirement Target Fund YOUR FUND'S GOAL AND MAIN INVESTMENTS: Franklin Templeton 2025 Retirement Target Fund seeks the highest level of long-term total return, which consists of capital appreciation and income, consistent with the Fund's asset allocation.

INVESTMENT STRATEGY When selecting equity funds, we consider the underlying funds' foreign and domestic exposure, market capitalization ranges, and investment style (growth vs. value). When selecting fixed income funds, our primary focus is on maximizing income appropriate to the Fund's risk profile. In evaluating the risk level of the underlying funds, we analyze such factors as: (a) relative and absolute performance, including correlations with other underlying funds as well as corresponding benchmarks, and (b) their volatility (the variability of returns from one period to the next). We attempt to invest the assets of each target fund in the same underlying funds and will vary the underlying funds' allocation percentages based upon each fund's risk/return level. We change the Fund's target asset allocation gradually over time, and it becomes increasingly conservative as the stated target date draws near. MANAGER'S DISCUSSION The Fund's performance can be attributed largely to its allocation among equities, fixed income securities, and short-term investments and other net assets, and by the actual performance of the selected underlying funds. This allocation shifts every year, in accordance with the retirement date associated with the portfolio. 1. Sources: Standard & Poor's Micropal; Lehman Brothers Inc. The S&P 500 consists of 500 stocks chosen for market size, liquidity and industry group representation. Each stock's weight in the index is proportionate to its market value. The S&P 500 is one of the most widely used benchmarks of U.S. equity performance. The MSCI EAFE Index is a free float-adjusted, market capitalization-weighted index designed to measure equity market performance in global developed markets excluding the U.S. and Canada. The LB U.S. Aggregate Index represents securities that are SEC-registered, taxable and dollar denominated. The index covers the U.S. investment grade fixed-rate bond market, with index components for government and corporate securities, mortgage pass-through securities and asset-backed securities. All issues included must have at least one year to final maturity and must be rated investment grade (Baa3 or better) by Moody's Investors Service. They must also be dollar denominated and nonconvertible. Total return includes price appreciation/depreciation and income as a percentage of the original investment. The index is rebalanced monthly by market capitalization. The P&R 90 Day U.S. T-Bill Index is a total return index based on a constant maturity instrument. Payden & Rygel includes both accrued interest and change in market price in its monthly total return calculations. The value of Treasuries, if held to maturity, is fixed; principal is guaranteed and interest is fixed. The indexes are unmanaged and include reinvested distributions. One cannot invest directly in an index, nor is an index representative of the Fund's portfolio. 16 | Annual Report At period-end, Franklin Templeton 2025 Retirement Target Fund's domestic equity exposure was 68.3% of its total equity weighting, with the balance represented by foreign equity. The portfolio was diversified across capitalization sizes and investment styles, and on December 31, 2007, we held shares in large-, mid- and small-capitalization equity funds, representing both growth and value styles. Mutual Shares Fund - Class Z, representing 16.5% of the Fund's total net assets, was our largest equity fund weighting at period-end. On the fixed income side, domestic exposure was 66.4% of the Fund's total fixed income weighting, with the balance represented by foreign fixed income. Templeton Global Bond Fund - Advisor Class was our largest fixed income fund weighting at 4.6% of total net assets. Our largest domestic growth fund holding, Franklin Flex Cap Growth Fund - Advisor Class, outperformed the S&P 500, while our largest domestic value fund holding, Mutual Shares Fund - Class Z, underperformed the S&P 500. Our largest foreign equity holding, Mutual European Fund - Class Z, outperformed the MSCI EAFE Index. On the fixed income side, Templeton Global Bond Fund - Advisor Class outperformed the LB U.S. Aggregate Index, while Franklin U.S. Government Securities Fund - Advisor Class underperformed the LB U.S. Aggregate Index. Thank you for your continued participation in Franklin Templeton 2025 Retirement Target Fund. We look forward to serving your future investment needs. [PHOTO OMITTED] /s/ T. Anthony Coffey T.

TYPICALLY, THE MORE AGGRESSIVE THE INVESTMENT, OR THE GREATER THE POTENTIAL RETURN, THE MORE RISK INVOLVED. GENERALLY, INVESTORS SHOULD BE COMFORTABLE WITH SOME FLUCTUATION IN THE VALUE OF THEIR INVESTMENTS, ESPECIALLY OVER THE SHORT TERM. STOCKS HAVE HISTORICALLY OUTPERFORMED OTHER ASSET CLASSES OVER THE LONG TERM, BUT THEY TEND TO FLUCTUATE MORE DRAMATICALLY OVER THE SHORTER TERM. BECAUSE THE FUND INVESTS IN UNDERLYING FUNDS, WHICH MAY ENGAGE IN A VARIETY OF INVESTMENT STRATEGIES INVOLVING CERTAIN RISKS, THE FUND MAY BE SUBJECT TO THOSE SAME RISKS. THE FUND'S PROSPECTUS ALSO INCLUDES A DESCRIPTION OF THE MAIN INVESTMENT RISKS. CLASS C: These shares have higher annual fees and expenses than Class A shares. CLASS R: Shares are available to certain eligible investors as described in the prospectus. These shares have higher annual fees and expenses than Class A shares. ADVISOR CLASS: Shares are available to certain eligible investors as described in the prospectus. 1. If the manager had not waived fees, the Fund's total returns would have been lower. 2. Cumulative total return represents the change in value of an investment over the periods indicated. 3. Average annual total return represents the average annual change in value of an investment over the periods indicated. 4. These figures represent the value of a hypothetical $10,000 investment in the Fund over the periods indicated. 5.

All mutual funds have ongoing costs, sometimes referred to as operating expenses. The following table shows ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and can help you understand these costs and compare them with those of other mutual funds. The table assumes a $1,000 investment held for the six months indicated. ACTUAL FUND EXPENSES The first line (Actual) for each share class listed in 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 Fund expenses. You can estimate the expenses you paid 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 "Expenses Paid During Period." IF EXPENSES PAID DURING PERIOD WERE $7.50, THEN 8.6 X $7.50 = $64.50. In this illustration, the estimated expenses paid this period are $64.50. HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON WITH OTHER FUNDS Information in the second line (Hypothetical) for each class in the table can help you compare ongoing costs of investing in the Fund with those of other mutual funds. This information may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid during the period. The hypothetical "Ending Account Value" is based on the actual expense ratio for each class and an assumed 5% annual rate of return before expenses, which does not represent the Fund's actual return. The figure under the heading "Expenses Paid 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. Annual Report | 23 Your Fund's Expenses (CONTINUED) PLEASE NOTE THAT EXPENSES SHOWN IN THE TABLE ARE MEANT TO HIGHLIGHT ONGOING COSTS AND DO NOT REFLECT ANY TRANSACTION COSTS, SUCH AS SALES CHARGES OR REDEMPTION FEES. Therefore, the second line for each class is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you compare total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if transaction costs were included, your total costs would have been higher. Please refer to the Fund prospectus for additional information on operating expenses. - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- BEGINNING ACCOUNT ENDING ACCOUNT EXPENSES PAID DURING CLASS A VALUE 7/1/07 VALUE 12/31/07 PERIOD* 7/1/07-12/31/07 - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Actual $1,000 $1,017.30 $2.34 - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hypothetical (5% return before expenses) $1,000 $1,022.89 $2.35 - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CLASS C - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Actual $1,000 $1,013.50 $5.89 - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hypothetical (5% return before expenses) $1,000 $1,019.36 $5.90 - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CLASS R - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Actual $1,000 $1,016.70 $3.35 - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hypothetical (5% return before expenses) $1,000 $1,021.88 $3.36 - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ADVISOR CLASS - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Actual $1,000 $1,018.90 $0.81 - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hypothetical (5% return before expenses) $1,000 $1,024.40 $0.82 - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- * Expenses are calculated using the most recent six-month expense ratio excluding expenses of the underlying funds, net of expense waivers, annualized for each class (A: 0.46%; C: 1.16%; R: 0.66%; and Advisor: 0.16%), multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 184/365 to reflect the one-half year period. 24 | Annual Report Franklin Templeton 2035 Retirement Target Fund YOUR FUND'S GOAL AND MAIN INVESTMENTS: Franklin Templeton 2035 Retirement Target Fund seeks the highest level of long-term total return, which consists of capital appreciation and income, consistent with the Fund's asset allocation.

ASSET ALLOCATION* Franklin Templeton 2035 Retirement Target Fund Based on Total Net Assets as of 12/31/07 [THE FOLLOWING TABLE WAS REPRESENTED BY A BAR CHART IN THE PRINTED MATERIAL.] Domestic Equity 64.2% Foreign Equity 29.9% Domestic Fixed Income 1.5% Foreign Fixed Income 0.8% Short-Term Investments & Other Net Assets 3.6% * The asset allocation is based on the Statement of Investments (SOI), which classifies each underlying fund into a broad asset class. 1. Sources: Standard & Poor's Micropal; Lehman Brothers Inc. The S&P 500 consists of 500 stocks chosen for market size, liquidity and industry group representation. Each stock's weight in the index is proportionate to its market value. The S&P 500 is one of the most widely used benchmarks of U.S. equity performance. The MSCI EAFE Index is a free float-adjusted, market capitalization-weighted index designed to measure equity market performance in global developed markets excluding the U.S. and Canada. The LB U.S. Aggregate Index represents securities that are SEC-registered, taxable and dollar denominated. The index covers the U.S. investment grade fixed-rate bond market, with index components for government and corporate securities, mortgage pass-through securities and asset-backed securities. All issues included must have at least one year to final maturity and must be rated investment grade (Baa3 or better) by Moody's Investors Service. They must also be dollar denominated and nonconvertible. Total return includes price appreciation/depreciation and income as a percentage of the original investment. The index is rebalanced monthly by market capitalization. The P&R 90 Day U.S. T-Bill Index is a total return index based on a constant maturity instrument. Payden & Rygel includes both accrued interest and change in market price in its monthly total return calculations. The value of Treasuries, if held to maturity, is fixed; principal is guaranteed and interest is fixed. The indexes are unmanaged and include reinvested distributions. One cannot invest directly in an index, nor is an index representative of the Fund's portfolio.

When selecting fixed income funds, our primary focus is on obtaining a maximum amount of current income. In evaluating the risk level of the underlying funds, we analyze such factors as: (a) relative and absolute performance, including correlations with other underlying funds as well as corresponding benchmarks, and (b) their volatility (the variability of returns from one period to the next). We attempt to invest the assets of each Fund in the same underlying funds and will vary the underlying funds' allocation percentages based upon each Fund's risk/return level. We change the Fund's target asset allocation gradually over time, and it becomes increasingly conservative as the stated target date draws near. MANAGER'S DISCUSSION The Fund's performance can be attributed largely to its allocation among equities, fixed income securities, and short-term investments and other net assets, and by the actual performance of the selected underlying funds. This allocation shifts every year, in accordance with the retirement date associated with the portfolio. At period-end, Franklin Templeton 2035 Retirement Target Fund's domestic equity exposure was 68.2% of its total equity weighting, with the balance represented by foreign equity. The portfolio was diversified across capitalization sizes and investment styles, and on December 31, 2007, we held shares in large-, mid- and small-capitalization equity funds, representing both growth and value styles. Mutual Shares Fund - Class Z, representing 18.6% of the Fund's total net assets, was our largest equity fund weighting at period-end. On the fixed income side, domestic exposure was 67.1% of the Fund's total fixed income weighting, with the balance represented by foreign fixed income. Templeton Global Bond Fund - Advisor Class and Franklin U.S. Government Securities Fund - Advisor Class were our largest fixed income fund weightings at 0.8% of total net assets each. Our largest domestic growth fund holding, Franklin Flex Cap Growth Fund - Advisor Class, outperformed the S&P 500, while our largest domestic value fund holding, Mutual Shares Fund - Class Z, underperformed the S&P 500. Our largest foreign equity holding, Mutual European Fund - Class Z, outperformed the MSCI EAFE Index. On the fixed income side, Templeton Global Bond Fund - Advisor Class outperformed the LB U.S. Aggregate Index, while Franklin U.S. Government Securities Fund - Advisor Class underperformed the LB U.S. Aggregate Index. 26 | Annual Report Thank you for your continued participation in Franklin Templeton 2035 Retirement Target Fund.

TYPICALLY, THE MORE AGGRESSIVE THE INVESTMENT, OR THE GREATER THE POTENTIAL RETURN, THE MORE RISK INVOLVED. GENERALLY, INVESTORS SHOULD BE COMFORTABLE WITH SOME FLUCTUATION IN THE VALUE OF THEIR INVESTMENTS, ESPECIALLY OVER THE SHORT TERM. STOCKS HAVE HISTORICALLY OUTPERFORMED OTHER ASSET CLASSES OVER THE LONG TERM, BUT THEY TEND TO FLUCTUATE MORE DRAMATICALLY OVER THE SHORTER TERM. BECAUSE THE FUND INVESTS IN UNDERLYING FUNDS, WHICH MAY ENGAGE IN A VARIETY OF INVESTMENT STRATEGIES INVOLVING CERTAIN RISKS, THE FUND MAY BE SUBJECT TO THOSE SAME RISKS. THE FUND'S PROSPECTUS ALSO INCLUDES A DESCRIPTION OF THE MAIN INVESTMENT RISKS. CLASS C: These shares have higher annual fees and expenses than Class A shares. CLASS R: Shares are available to certain eligible investors as described in the prospectus. These shares have higher annual fees and expenses than Class A shares. ADVISOR CLASS: Shares are available to certain eligible investors as described in the prospectus. 1. If the manager had not waived fees, the Fund's total returns would have been lower. 2. Cumulative total return represents the change in value of an investment over the periods indicated. 3.

These figures represent the value of a hypothetical $10,000 investment in the Fund over the periods indicated. 5.

All mutual funds have ongoing costs, sometimes referred to as operating expenses. The following table shows ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and can help you understand these costs and compare them with those of other mutual funds. The table assumes a $1,000 investment held for the six months indicated. ACTUAL FUND EXPENSES The first line (Actual) for each share class listed in 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 Fund expenses. You can estimate the expenses you paid 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 "Expenses Paid During Period." IF EXPENSES PAID DURING PERIOD WERE $7.50, THEN 8.6 X $7.50 = $64.50. In this illustration, the estimated expenses paid this period are $64.50. HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON WITH OTHER FUNDS Information in the second line (Hypothetical) for each class in the table can help you compare ongoing costs of investing in the Fund with those of other mutual funds. This information may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid during the period. The hypothetical "Ending Account Value" is based on the actual expense ratio for each class and an assumed 5% annual rate of return before expenses, which does not represent the Fund's actual return. The figure under the heading "Expenses Paid 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. Annual Report | 33 Your Fund's Expenses (CONTINUED) PLEASE NOTE THAT EXPENSES SHOWN IN THE TABLE ARE MEANT TO HIGHLIGHT ONGOING COSTS AND DO NOT REFLECT ANY TRANSACTION COSTS, SUCH AS SALES CHARGES OR REDEMPTION FEES. Therefore, the second line for each class is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you compare total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if transaction costs were included, your total costs would have been higher. Please refer to the Fund prospectus for additional information on operating expenses. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- BEGINNING ACCOUNT ENDING ACCOUNT EXPENSES PAID DURING CLASS A VALUE 7/1/07 VALUE 12/31/07 PERIOD* 7/1/07-12/31/07 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Actual $1,000 $1,015.10 $2.39 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hypothetical (5% return before expenses) $1,000 $1,022.84 $2.40 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CLASS C - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Actual $1,000 $1,010.70 $5.88 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hypothetical (5% return before expenses) $1,000 $1,019.36 $5.90 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CLASS R - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Actual $1,000 $1,014.10 $3.35 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hypothetical (5% return before expenses) $1,000 $1,021.88 $3.36 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ADVISOR CLASS - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Actual $1,000 $1,016.10 $0.81 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hypothetical (5% return before expenses) $1,000 $1,024.40 $0.82 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- * Expenses are calculated using the most recent six-month expense ratio excluding expenses of the underlying funds, net of expense waivers, annualized for each class (A: 0.47%; C: 1.16%; R: 0.66%; and Advisor: 0.16%), multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 184/365 to reflect the one-half year period. 34 | Annual Report Franklin Templeton 2045 Retirement Target Fund YOUR FUND'S GOAL AND MAIN INVESTMENTS: Franklin Templeton 2045 Retirement Target Fund seeks the highest level of long-term total return, which consists of capital appreciation and income, consistent with the Fund's asset allocation.

INVESTMENT STRATEGY When selecting equity funds, we consider the underlying funds' foreign and domestic exposure, market capitalization ranges, and investment style (growth vs. value). When selecting fixed income funds, our primary focus is on obtaining a maximum amount of current income. In evaluating the risk level of the underlying funds, we analyze such factors as: (a) relative and absolute performance, including correlations with other underlying funds as well as corresponding benchmarks, and (b) their volatility (the variability of returns from one period to the next). We attempt to invest the assets of each Fund in the same underlying funds and will vary the underlying funds' allocation percentages based upon each Fund's risk/return level. We change the Fund's target asset allocation gradually over time, and it becomes increasingly conservative as the stated target date draws near. MANAGER'S DISCUSSION The Fund's performance can be attributed largely to its allocation among equities and short-term investments and other net assets, and by the actual performance of the selected underlying funds. This allocation shifts every year, in accordance with the retirement date associated with the portfolio. 1. Sources: Standard & Poor's Micropal; Lehman Brothers Inc. The S&P 500 consists of 500 stocks chosen for market size, liquidity and industry group representation. Each stock's weight in the index is proportionate to its market value. The S&P 500 is one of the most widely used benchmarks of U.S. equity performance. The MSCI EAFE Index is a free float-adjusted, market capitalization-weighted index designed to measure equity market performance in global developed markets excluding the U.S. and Canada. The LB U.S. Aggregate Index represents securities that are SEC-registered, taxable and dollar denominated. The index covers the U.S. investment grade fixed-rate bond market, with index components for government and corporate securities, mortgage pass-through securities and asset-backed securities. All issues included must have at least one year to final maturity and must be rated investment grade (Baa3 or better) by Moody's Investors Service. They must also be dollar denominated and nonconvertible. Total return includes price appreciation/depreciation and income as a percentage of the original investment. The index is rebalanced monthly by market capitalization. The P&R 90 Day U.S. T-Bill Index is a total return index based on a constant maturity instrument. Payden & Rygel includes both accrued interest and change in market price in its monthly total return calculations. The value of Treasuries, if held to maturity, is fixed; principal is guaranteed and interest is fixed. The indexes are unmanaged and include reinvested distributions. One cannot invest directly in an index, nor is an index representative of the Fund's portfolio. 36 | Annual Report At period-end, Franklin Templeton 2045 Retirement Target Fund's domestic equity exposure was 68.0% of its total equity weighting, with the balance represented by foreign equity. The portfolio was diversified across capitalization sizes and investment styles, and on December 31, 2007, we held shares in large-, mid- and small-capitalization equity funds, representing both growth and value styles. Mutual Shares Fund - Class Z, representing 18.9% of the Fund's total net assets, was our largest equity fund weighting at period-end. Our largest domestic growth fund holding, Franklin Flex Cap Growth Fund - Advisor Class, outperformed the S&P 500, while our largest domestic value fund holding, Mutual Shares Fund - Class Z, underperformed the S&P 500. Our largest foreign equity holding, Mutual European Fund - Class Z, outperformed the MSCI EAFE Index, while Franklin Global Real Estate Fund - Advisor Class underperformed the MSCI EAFE Index. Thank you for your continued participation in Franklin Templeton 2045 Retirement Target Fund. We look forward to serving your future investment needs. [PHOTO OMITTED] /s/ T. Anthony Coffey T.

TYPICALLY, THE MORE AGGRESSIVE THE INVESTMENT, OR THE GREATER THE POTENTIAL RETURN, THE MORE RISK INVOLVED. GENERALLY, INVESTORS SHOULD BE COMFORTABLE WITH SOME FLUCTUATION IN THE VALUE OF THEIR INVESTMENTS, ESPECIALLY OVER THE SHORT TERM. STOCKS HAVE HISTORICALLY OUTPERFORMED OTHER ASSET CLASSES OVER THE LONG TERM, BUT THEY TEND TO FLUCTUATE MORE DRAMATICALLY OVER THE SHORTER TERM. BECAUSE THE FUND INVESTS IN UNDERLYING FUNDS, WHICH MAY ENGAGE IN A VARIETY OF INVESTMENT STRATEGIES INVOLVING CERTAIN RISKS, THE FUND MAY BE SUBJECT TO THOSE SAME RISKS. THE FUND'S PROSPECTUS ALSO INCLUDES A DESCRIPTION OF THE MAIN INVESTMENT RISKS. CLASS C: These shares have higher annual fees and expenses than Class A shares. CLASS R: Shares are available to certain eligible investors as described in the prospectus. These shares have higher annual fees and expenses than Class A shares.

All mutual funds have ongoing costs, sometimes referred to as operating expenses. The following table shows ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and can help you understand these costs and compare them with those of other mutual funds. The table assumes a $1,000 investment held for the six months indicated. ACTUAL FUND EXPENSES The first line (Actual) for each share class listed in 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 Fund expenses. You can estimate the expenses you paid 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 "Expenses Paid During Period." IF EXPENSES PAID DURING PERIOD WERE $7.50, THEN 8.6 X $7.50 = $64.50. In this illustration, the estimated expenses paid this period are $64.50. HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON WITH OTHER FUNDS Information in the second line (Hypothetical) for each class in the table can help you compare ongoing costs of investing in the Fund with those of other mutual funds. This information may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid during the period. The hypothetical "Ending Account Value" is based on the actual expense ratio for each class and an assumed 5% annual rate of return before expenses, which does not represent the Fund's actual return. The figure under the heading "Expenses Paid 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. Annual Report | 43 Your Fund's Expenses (CONTINUED) PLEASE NOTE THAT EXPENSES SHOWN IN THE TABLE ARE MEANT TO HIGHLIGHT ONGOING COSTS AND DO NOT REFLECT ANY TRANSACTION COSTS, SUCH AS SALES CHARGES OR REDEMPTION FEES. Therefore, the second line for each class is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you compare total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if transaction costs were included, your total costs would have been higher. Please refer to the Fund prospectus for additional information on operating expenses. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- BEGINNING ACCOUNT ENDING ACCOUNT EXPENSES PAID DURING CLASS A VALUE 7/1/07 VALUE 12/31/07 PERIOD* 7/1/07-12/31/07 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Actual $1,000 $1,014.70 $2.34 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hypothetical (5% return before expenses) $1,000 $1,022.89 $2.35 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CLASS C - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Actual $1,000 $1,010.40 $5.83 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hypothetical (5% return before expenses) $1,000 $1,019.41 $5.85 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CLASS R - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Actual $1,000 $1,013.70 $3.30 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hypothetical (5% return before expenses) $1,000 $1,021.93 $3.31 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ADVISOR CLASS - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Actual $1,000 $1,016.10 $0.76 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hypothetical (5% return before expenses) $1,000 $1,024.45 $0.77 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- * Expenses are calculated using the most recent six-month expense ratio excluding expenses of the underlying funds, net of expense waivers, annualized for each class (A: 0.46%; C: 1.15%; R: 0.65%; and Advisor: 0.15%), multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 184/365 to reflect the one-half year period. 44 | Annual Report Franklin Templeton Fund Allocator Series FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS FRANKLIN TEMPLETON 2015 RETIREMENT TARGET FUND -------------------- YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, CLASS A 2007 2006 h -------------------- PER SHARE OPERATING PERFORMANCE (for a share outstanding throughout the year) Net asset value, beginning of year ............................................. $ 10.69 $ 10.00 -------------------- Income from investment operations a: Net investment income b, c .................................................. 0.33 0.13 Net realized and unrealized gains (losses) .................................. 0.72 0.73 -------------------- Total from investment operations ............................................... 1.05 0.86 -------------------- Less distributions from: Net investment income and short term gains received from Underlying Funds ...

Annual Report | The accompanying notes are an integral part of these financial statements. | 69 Franklin Templeton Fund Allocator Series NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Franklin Templeton Fund Allocator Series (Trust) is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, (1940 Act) as an open-end investment company, consisting of ten separate funds. All funds included in this report (Funds) are diversified. The financial statements of the remaining funds in the Trust are presented separately. The Funds invest primarily in Franklin Templeton mutual funds (Underlying Funds). The Funds offer four classes of shares: Class A, Class C, Class R, and Advisor Class. Each class of shares differs by its initial sales load, contingent deferred sales charges, distribution fees, voting rights on matters affecting a single class and its exchange privilege. The following summarizes the Funds' significant accounting policies. A. SECURITY VALUATION Net asset value per share is calculated as of the close of trading of the NYSE. Investments in the Underlying Funds are valued at their closing net asset value each trading day. B. INCOME TAXES No provision has been made for U.S. income taxes because it is each fund's policy to qualify as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code and to distribute to shareholders substantially all of its taxable income and net realized gains. C. 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 and realized gain distributions by Underlying Funds are recorded on 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. 70 | Annual Report Franklin Templeton Fund Allocator Series NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) 1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) C. SECURITY TRANSACTIONS, INVESTMENT INCOME,EXPENSES AND DISTRIBUTIONS (CONTINUED) The Funds indirectly bear their proportionate share of expenses from the Underlying Funds. Since the Underlying Funds have varied expense levels and the Funds may own different proportions of the Underlying Funds at different times, the amount of expenses incurred indirectly by the Funds will vary. Realized and unrealized gains and losses and net investment income, other than 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. D. OFFERING COSTS Offering costs are amortized on a straight line basis over twelve months. E. 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. F. REDEMPTION FEES A short term trading redemption fee will be imposed, with some exceptions, on any fund shares that are redeemed or exchanged within seven calendar days following their purchase date. The redemption fee is 2% of the amount redeemed. Such fees are retained by the Funds and accounted for as an addition to paid-in capital. G. GUARANTEES AND INDEMNIFICATIONS Under the Trust's organizational documents, its officers and directors 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 Funds, 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. Annual Report | 71 Franklin Templeton Fund Allocator Series NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) 2.

INVESTMENTS IN UNDERLYING FUNDS The Funds invest primarily in the Underlying Funds which are managed by Advisers or an affiliate of Advisers. The Funds do not invest in the Underlying Funds for the purpose of exercising management or control. At December 31, 2007, the Funds held no positions which exceed 5% of the Underlying Funds' shares outstanding. The Funds may invest in the Franklin Institutional Fiduciary Trust Money Market Portfolio (Sweep Money Fund), an open-end investment company managed by Advisers. Pursuant to a SEC exemptive order specific to the Funds' investment in the Sweep Money Fund, in an amount not to exceed the management and administrative fees paid by the Sweep Money Fund. 7. REGULATORY AND LITIGATION MATTERS As part of various investigations by a number of federal, state, and foreign regulators and governmental entities, including the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), relating to certain practices in the mutual fund industry, including late trading, market timing and marketing support payments to securities dealers who sell fund shares ("marketing support"), Franklin Resources, Inc. and certain of its subsidiaries (collectively, the "Company"), entered into settlements with certain of those regulators and governmental entities. Specifically, the Company entered into settlements with the SEC, among others, concerning market timing and marketing support. On June 6, 2007, the SEC posted for public comment the proposed plan of distribution for the market timing settlement. Once the SEC approves the final plan of distribution, disbursements of settlement monies will be made promptly to individuals who were shareholders of the designated funds during the relevant period, in accordance with the terms and conditions of the settlement and plan. In addition, the Company, as well as most of the mutual funds within Franklin Templeton Investments and certain current or former officers, Company directors, fund directors, and employees, have been named in private lawsuits (styled as shareholder class actions, or as derivative actions on behalf of either the named funds or Franklin Resources, Inc.). The lawsuits relate to the industry practices referenced above. The Company and fund management believe that the claims made in each of the private lawsuits referenced above are without merit and intend to defend against them vigorously. The Company cannot predict with certainty the eventual outcome of these lawsuits, nor whether they will have a material negative impact on the Company. If it is determined that the Company bears responsibility for any unlawful or inappropriate conduct that caused losses to the Trust, it is committed to making the Trust or their shareholders whole, as appropriate. 78 | Annual Report Franklin Templeton Fund Allocator Series NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) 8. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENT In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued FASB Statement No. 157, "Fair Value Measurement" (SFAS 157), which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Trust believes the adoption of SFAS 157 will have no material impact on its financial statements. Annual Report | 79 Franklin Templeton Fund Allocator Series REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM TO THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES AND SHAREHOLDERS OF FRANKLIN TEMPLETON FUND ALLOCATOR SERIES In our opinion, the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the statements of investments, and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Franklin Templeton 2015 Retirement Target Fund, Franklin Templeton 2025 Retirement Target Fund, Franklin Templeton 2035 Retirement Target Fund and Franklin Templeton 2045 Retirement Target Fund (separate portfolios of Franklin Templeton Allocator Series, hereafter referred to as the "Funds") at December 31, 2007, the results of each of their operations for the year then ended and the changes in each of their net assets and the financial highlights for each of the two years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as "financial statements") are the responsibility of the Funds' management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of investment in the Underlying Funds at December 31, 2007 by correspondence with the transfer agent of the Underlying Funds, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
