The Funds today announced that the Board of Directors of each
Fund has approved changes to an investment policy, effective March
1, 2014.
Under the previous investment policy, each Fund considered a
country to be an emerging market country if, at the time of
investment, it was (i) represented in the JP Morgan Emerging Market
Bond Index Global or (ii) categorized by the World Bank in its
annual categorization as middle- or low-income. Effective March 1,
2014, each Fund has adopted an amended investment policy to include
the J.P. Morgan Corporate Emerging Market Bond Index Broad and now
considers a country to be an emerging market country, if, at the
time of investment, it is (i) represented in the J.P. Morgan
Emerging Market Bond Index Global or the J.P. Morgan Corporate
Emerging Market Bond Index Broad or (ii) categorized by the World
Bank in its annual categorization as middle- or low-income.
The revised definition is intended to give the portfolio
managers the opportunity to extract additional value from the
emerging market corporate sector and align the Funds with Western
Asset Management Company’s, the Funds’ subadviser, evolving style
of managing emerging market mandates.

principal. Investment return and the value of shares will
