Item 4. Ownership
The securities reported herein are beneficially owned by one or more open ‑ or closed ‑
end investment companies or other managed accounts that are investment management clients
of investment managers that are direct and indirect subsidiaries (each, an “Investment
Management Subsidiary” and, collectively, the “Investment Management Subsidiaries”) of
Franklin Resources, Inc.(“FRI”), including the Investment Management Subsidiaries listed
in this Item 4. When an investment management contract (including a sub‑advisory
agreement) delegates to an Investment Management Subsidiary investment discretion or
voting power over the securities held in the investment advisory accounts that are subject
to that agreement, FRI treats the Investment Management Subsidiary as having sole
investment discretion or voting authority, as the case may be, unless the agreement
specifies otherwise. Accordingly, each Investment Management Subsidiary reports on
Schedule 13G that it has sole investment discretion and voting authority over the
securities covered by any such investment management agreement, unless otherwise noted in
this Item 4. As a result, for purposes of Rule 13d‑3 under the Act, the Investment
Management Subsidiaries listed in this Item 4 may be deemed to be the beneficial owners of
the securities reported in this Schedule 13G.
Beneficial ownership by Investment Management Subsidiaries and other FRI affiliates is
being reported in conformity with the guidelines articulated by the SEC staff in Release
No. 34‑39538 (January 12, 1998) relating to organizations, such as FRI, where related
entities exercise voting and investment powers over the securities being reported
independently from each other. The voting and investment powers held by Franklin Mutual
Advisers, LLC (“FMA”), an indirect wholly‑owned Investment Management Subsidiary, are
exercised independently from FRI and from all other Investment Management Subsidiaries
(FRI, its affiliates and the Investment Management Subsidiaries other than FMA are
collectively, “FRI affiliates”). Furthermore, internal policies and procedures of FMA and
FRI establish informational barriers that prevent the flow between FMA and the FRI
affiliates of information that relates to the voting and investment powers over the
securities owned by their respective investment management clients. Consequently, FMA and
the FRI affiliates report the securities over which they hold investment and voting power
separately from each other for purposes of Section 13 of the Act.
Charles B. Johnson and Rupert H. Johnson, Jr. (the “Principal Shareholders”) each own in
excess of 10% of the outstanding common stock of FRI and are the principal stockholders of
FRI. FRI and the Principal Shareholders may be deemed to be, for purposes of Rule 13d‑3
under the Act, the beneficial owners of securities held by persons and entities for whom
CUSIP NO. 057224107 13G Page 7 of 13
or for which FRI subsidiaries provide investment management services. The number of
shares that may be deemed to be beneficially owned and the percentage of the class of
which such shares are a part are reported in Items 9 and 11 of the cover pages for FRI and
each of the Principal Shareholders. FRI, the Principal Shareholders and each of the
Investment Management Subsidiaries disclaim any pecuniary interest in any of such
securities. In addition, the filing of this Schedule 13G on behalf of the Principal
Shareholders, FRI and the FRI affiliates, as applicable, should not be construed as an
admission that any of them is, and each of them disclaims that it is, the beneficial
owner, as defined in Rule 13d‑3, of any of the securities reported in this Schedule 13G.
FRI, the Principal Shareholders, and each of the Investment Management Subsidiaries
believe that they are not a “group” within the meaning of Rule 13d‑5 under the Act and
that they are not otherwise required to attribute to each other the beneficial ownership
of the securities held by any of them or by any persons or entities for whom or for which
the Investment Management Subsidiaries provide investment management services.

Footnotes to Schedule 13G
[1] Franklin Templeton Portfolio Advisors, Inc. (“FTPA”) may beneficially own these securities pursuant to various
separately managed account investment management arrangements. Under these arrangements, underlying clients
may, from time to time, delegate to FTPA the power to vote such securities, in which case FTPA has sole voting power.
To the extent that the underlying client retains voting power over any securities, FTPA disclaims any power to vote or
direct the vote of such securities.
[2] One or more of the investment management contracts that relates to these securities provides that the applicable FRI
affiliate share investment power over the securities held in the client’s account covered by such contract with another
unaffiliated entity. The issuer's securities held in all such accounts are less than 5% of the outstanding shares of the
class. In addition, FRI does not believe that any such contract causes such client or any such unaffiliated entity to be part
of a group with FRI or any FRI affiliate within the meaning of Rule 13d‑5 under the Act.
