These changes and proxy details are covered below. Proposal to change the Fund's classification ClearBridge Large Cap Growth Fund's Board of Trustees has approved changing the fund's classification from diversified to non-diversified. Generally, a non-diversified fund may invest a larger percentage of its assets in a smaller number of issuers than a diversified fund. To the extent the fund invests a larger percentage of its assets in a smaller number of issuers, it will be more susceptible to negative events affecting those issuers. This change is subject to shareholder approval. Proposal to authorize the Fund to rely on a Manager of Managers Order

There is also a proposal that would enable the fund's manager, with the approval of the fund's Board of Trustees, to enter into and materially amend subadvisory contracts without shareholder approval, in reliance on an exemptive order previously granted by the Securities and Exchange Commission. This change is subject to shareholder approval. Proxy information Shareholders of record as of January 21, 2026, were mailed a proxy statement and proxy card on Monday, February 2, 2026. The shareholder meeting will be held on April 7, 2026.

What are Shareholders being asked to vote on? 1. To approve a change in the Fund's classification from a "diversified" fund to a "non-diversified" fund; BOARD OF TRUSTEES UNANIMOUS RECOMMENDATION - "FOR" 2. To authorize the Fund to rely on a "Manager of Managers" order; BOARD OF TRUSTEES UNANIMOUS RECOMMENDATION - "FOR" PROPOSAL 1: To approve a change in the Fund's classification from a "diversified" fund to a "non-diversified" fund; What are shareholders being asked to approve? Shareholders of ClearBridge Large Cap Growth Fund are being asked to approve a change in the Fund's classification from a "diversified" fund to a "non-diversified" fund. What is the difference between a "diversified" Fund and a "non-diversified" Fund? diversified fund A "diversified" fund is limited as to the amount it may invest in any single issuer. Under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, a "diversified" fund may not, with respect to 75% of its total assets, invest in securities of any issuer if, as a result of such investment (i) more than 5% of the value of the fund's total assets would be invested in securities of any one issuer, or (ii) the fund would hold more than 10% of the outstanding voting securities of any one issuer. These percentage limitations do not apply to securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government, its agencies or instrumentalities, or to securities issued by other investment companies. With respect to the remaining 25% of its total assets, a "diversified" fund may invest more than 5% of its total assets in the securities of one issuer. These limits apply at the time a "diversified" fund purchases a security; a "diversified" fund may exceed these limits if positions it already holds increase in value relative to the rest of the fund's holdings. For Internal Distribution Only Page 1

non-diversified fund In contrast, a "non-diversified" fund is not subject to the limits of a "diversified" fund; it may invest a greater percentage of its assets in a single issuer or a fewer number of issuers than a "diversified" fund. Why are shareholders being asked to approve a change in the Fund's classification from "diversified" to "non-diversified"? The Fund is currently classified as a "diversified" fund under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, which may not be changed without shareholder approval. What are the benefits of changing the Fund's classification to "non-diversified"? The Fund currently is classified as a "diversified" fund. The Russell 1000 Growth Index, the Fund's performance benchmark, is becoming increasingly concentrated in a small number of large-cap technology companies. As of December 31, 2025, the five largest stocks by weight in the Index were: Nvidia (12.26%), Apple (10.51%), Microsoft (9.69%), Broadcom (4.84%) and Amazon (4.72%). The Fund is not currently permitted to invest in securities at a level reflecting the current market, as represented by the composition of the Index, without exceeding the limits permitted for a "diversified" fund. Franklin Templeton Fund Adviser, LLC, the Fund's investment manager, and ClearBridge Investments, LLC, the Fund's subadviser believe that changing the Fund's classification to "non-diversified" will benefit the Fund by giving it greater flexibility to hold larger positions in certain companies. ClearBridge believes that this change will better allow the Fund to take more meaningful positions in securities in which Clearbridge has strong investment convictions and could better allow the Fund to meet its investment objective. If approved, do the investment manager and subadviser expect to make changes in the ways in which the Fund is invested? Except for maintaining a more focused portfolio, ClearBridge does not expect the proposed change in the classification of the Fund to substantially affect the manner in which the Fund's investment program is conducted at this time. Other than the change in the Fund's classification from "diversified" to "non-diversified," Franklin Templeton Fund Adviser, LLC and ClearBridge do not propose or anticipate any material change in the management of the Fund if the Proposal is approved. Any future material changes to the management of the Fund will require consideration by the Board and disclosure in the Fund's prospectus or statement of additional information, as appropriate. If approved, will the change in classification to non-diversified expose the Fund to additional risk? Shareholders should note that to the extent the Fund invests its assets in a smaller number of issuers, the Fund will be more susceptible to negative events affecting those issuers than a "diversified" fund. Investing a larger percentage of the Fund's assets in any one issuer could increase the Fund's risk of loss and its share price volatility because the value of its shares would be more susceptible to adverse events affecting that issuer. If the Fund takes a larger position in an issuer that subsequently has an adverse return, the Fund may have a greater loss than it would have had if ClearBridge had invested Fund assets in a larger number of issuers. Clearbridge will use this increased investment flexibility to take larger positions in the securities of fewer issuers when it believes that doing so could benefit the Fund. For Internal Distribution Only Page 2

If approved, when will the change become effective? If shareholders of the Fund approve the Proposal, the change in the Fund's classification from "diversified" to "non-diversified" will become effective when the Fund's registration statement is revised or supplemented. What will happen if the Proposal is not approved? If shareholders of the Fund do not approve the change in the Fund's classification from a "diversified" fund to a "non-diversified" fund, the Fund will continue to operate as a "diversified" fund. THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS A VOTE "FOR" PROPOSAL 1 PROPOSAL 2: To authorize the Fund to rely on a "Manager of Managers" order; What are shareholders being asked to approve? Shareholders are being asked to authorize the Fund's use of a "manager of managers" structure that would permit Franklin Templeton Fund Adviser, LLC, the Fund's manager, or any other entity under common control with Franklin Templeton Fund Adviser, LLC that serves as an adviser to the Fund (together, the "Manager"), subject to the approval of the Board of Trustees, to appoint subadvisers, and enter into, and materially amend, subadvisory agreements for the Fund without further shareholder approval. How will the Manager of Managers structure benefit the Fund? Currently, in order for the Manager to appoint a subadviser or materially modify a subadvisory agreement, the Fund must call and hold a shareholder meeting, create and distribute proxy materials, and solicit votes from its shareholders. This process is time-intensive, costly and slow. Without the delay inherent in holding shareholder meetings, the Fund would be able to act more quickly to appoint a subadviser when the Board of the Fund and the Manager believe that the appointment would benefit the Fund. What are the Fund's plans to appoint or materially modify a subadvisory agreement? Please note that the Manager does not have any present intention to use the Manager of Managers Structure to appoint additional subadvisers for the Fund or replace the Fund's subadvisers. How will approval of this Proposal affect the Fund's fees? Approval of this Proposal will not affect the Fund's fees. The Manager of Managers Structure will not at any time entail an increase in the investment management fees paid by the Fund. Further shareholder approval would be necessary to increase the investment management fees that are payable by the Fund, which is not contemplated. If the Fund implements the Manager of Managers Structure, the Manager, pursuant to its management agreement with the Fund, will continue, directly or through subadvisers, to provide the same level of management services to the Fund as it provides currently. What will happen if the Proposal is not approved? If the shareholders of the Fund do not approve the use of a "manager of managers" structure, decisions regarding a proposed subadviser for that Fund or a material change to a subadvisory agreement with respect to that Fund will continue to require shareholder approval.
