    Templeton Dragon Fund (NYSE:TDF)

    Notification of Sources of Distributions

    Pursuant to Section 19(a) of the Investment Company Act of 1940

    The Fund's estimated sources of the distribution to be paid on March 31, 2025, and for the fiscal year 2024 year-to-date are as follows:

    Shareholders should not draw any conclusions about the Fund's investment performance from the amount of this distribution or from the terms of the Plan. TDF estimates that it has distributed more than its income and net realized capital gains; therefore, a portion of the TDF 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 TDF'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.

    Average Annual Total Return (in relation to the change in net asset value (NAV) for the 5-year period ended on 2/28/2025)1

    Annualized Distribution Rate (as a percentage of NAV for the current fiscal period through 2/28/2025)2

    Cumulative Total Return (in relation to the change in NAV for the fiscal period through 2/28/2025)3

    Fund Performance and Distribution Rate Information:

    1. Average Annual Total Return in relation to NAV represents the compound average of the Annual NAV Total Returns of the Fund for the five-year period ended through February 28, 2025. Annual NAV Total Return is the percentage change in the Fund's NAV over a year, assuming reinvestment of distributions paid.
    2. 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.
    3. Cumulative Total Return is the percentage change in the Fund's NAV from December 31, 2024 through February 28, 2025, assuming reinvestment of distributions paid.
    4. The Cumulative Fiscal Year-To-Date Distribution Rate is the dollar value of distributions for the fiscal period December 31, 2023 through December 31, 2024, as a percentage of the Fund's NAV as of February 28, 2025.

    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 $0.10 per share. The Plan aims to provide shareholders with consistent quarterly distributions derived from ordinary income and short-term capital gains generated by the Fund's investment portfolio. Additionally, the Plan seeks to narrow the discount between the market price and the net asset value ("NAV") of the Fund's common shares, although success in this regard cannot be guaranteed.

    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.
