Templeton Emerging Markets Fund (“EMF”) Announces Notification of Sources of Distributions
Templeton Emerging Markets Fund (EMF) has announced its quarterly distribution details and managed distribution plan. The Fund will make quarterly distributions at a fixed rate of $0.22 per share through its Board-authorized Managed Distribution Plan.
The Fund estimates it has distributed more than its income and net realized capital gains, indicating a portion of the distribution may be a return of capital. The Plan aims to provide consistent quarterly distributions from ordinary income and short-term capital gains, while attempting to narrow the discount between market price and NAV.

템플턴 신흥시장 펀드 (EMF)가 분기 배당 세부사항과 관리 배당 계획을 발표했습니다. 이 펀드는 이사회에서 승인한 관리 배당 계획에 따라 주당 $0.22의 고정 비율로 분기 배당금을 지급할 예정입니다.
펀드는 소득 및 실현된 순자본 이익보다 더 많은 배당금을 지급했다고 추정하고 있으며, 이는 배당금의 일부가 자본 반환일 수 있음을 나타냅니다. 이 계획은 일반 소득과 단기 자본 이익에서 일관된 분기 배당금을 제공하면서 시장 가격과 NAV 간의 할인폭을 줄이는 것을 목표로 합니다.

Der Templeton Emerging Markets Fund (EMF) hat die Einzelheiten seiner vierteljährlichen Ausschüttung und des verwalteten Ausschüttungsplans bekannt gegeben. Der Fonds wird vierteljährliche Ausschüttungen zu einem festen Satz von 0,22 $ pro Aktie im Rahmen seines vom Vorstand genehmigten verwalteten Ausschüttungsplans vornehmen.
Der Fonds schätzt, dass er mehr als sein Einkommen und seine realisierten Nettokapitalgewinne ausgeschüttet hat, was darauf hindeutet, dass ein Teil der Ausschüttung eine Rückzahlung von Kapital sein könnte. Der Plan zielt darauf ab, konsistente vierteljährliche Ausschüttungen aus ordentlichen Einkünften und kurzfristigen Kapitalgewinnen bereitzustellen, während er versucht, den Rabatt zwischen Marktpreis und NAV zu verringern.

Shareholders should not draw any conclusions about the Fund’s investment performance from the amount of the current distribution or from the terms of the Fund’s Plan. EMF estimates that it has distributed more than its income and net realized capital gains; therefore, a portion of the EMF distribution to shareholders may be a return of capital. A return of capital may occur, for example, when some or all of the money that a shareholder invested in a Fund is paid back to them. A return of capital distribution does not necessarily reflect EMF’s investment performance and should not be confused with ‘yield’ or ‘income’. The amounts and sources of distributions reported herein are only estimates and are not being provided for tax reporting purposes. The actual amounts and sources of the amounts for tax reporting purposes will depend upon the Fund’s investment experience during the remainder of its fiscal year and may be subject to changes based on tax regulations. The Fund will send a Form 1099-DIV to shareholders for the calendar year that will describe how to report the Fund’s distributions for federal income tax purposes.

Annual NAV Total Return is the percentage change in the Fund’s NAV over a year, assuming reinvestment of distributions paid.
- The Annualized Distribution Rate is the current fiscal period’s distribution rate annualized as a percentage of the Fund’s NAV through February 28, 2025.
- Cumulative Total Return is the percentage change in the Fund’s NAV from August 31, 2024 through February 28, 2025, assuming reinvestment of distributions paid.

The Fund’s Board of Trustees (the “Board”) has authorized a Managed Distribution Plan (the “Plan”), under which the Fund will make quarterly distributions to shareholders at a fixed rate of
In the event that sufficient distributable income is not available on a quarterly basis, the Fund will distribute long-term capital gains and/or return of capital to maintain its managed distribution rate. A return of capital may occur when some or all of the invested capital is paid back to shareholders. It is important to note that a return of capital distribution does not necessarily reflect the Fund’s investment performance and should not be confused with “yield” or “income.” Even if the Fund realizes capital gains in the current year, such gains may be offset, in whole or in part, by the Fund’s capital loss carryovers from prior years.
The Board may amend the terms of the Plan or terminate the Plan at any time without prior notice to the Fund’s shareholders. The amendment or termination of the Plan could have an adverse effect on the market price of the Fund’s common shares. The Plan will be subject to periodic review by the Board, including a yearly review of the fixed rate to determine if an adjustment should be made.
