Item 4. Ownership
The securities reported herein are beneficially owned by one or more open‑end investment
companies or other managed accounts that are investment management clients of Franklin
Mutual Advisors, LLC ("FMA") and/or Franklin Advisory Services, LLC (“FAS”), each an
indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Franklin Resources, Inc. ("FRI"). When an investment
management contract (including a sub‑advisory agreement) delegates to FMA or FAS
investment discretion or voting power over the securities held in the investment advisory
accounts that are subject to that agreement, FRI treats FMA or FAS as having sole
investment discretion or voting authority, as the case may be, unless the agreement
specifies otherwise. Accordingly, each of FMA and FAS 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, FMA and/or FAS may be deemed to be the beneficial
owner of the securities reported in this Schedule 13G.
Beneficial ownership by investment management subsidiaries and other affiliates of FRI
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 FMA and
FAS are exercised independently from FRI (FMA’s and FAS’s parent holding company) and from
all other investment management subsidiaries of FRI (FRI, its affiliates and investment
management subsidiaries other than FMA and FAS are, collectively, “FRI affiliates”).
Furthermore, internal policies and procedures of FMA, FAS and FRI establish informational
barriers that prevent the flow between FMA and FAS, on the one hand, and the FRI
affiliates, on the other hand, of information that relates to the voting and investment
powers over the securities owned by their respective investment management clients.
Consequently, FMA and FAS report the securities over which they hold investment and voting
power separately from the FRI affiliates for purposes of Section 13 of the Act.
CUSIP NO. 678026105 13G Page 5 of 7
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. However, because FMA and FAS exercise voting and investment powers on behalf of
their investment management clients independently of FRI, beneficial ownership of the
securities reported by FMA and FAS is not attributed to the Principal Shareholders. Each
of FMA and FAS disclaims any pecuniary interest in any of the securities reported in this
Schedule 13G. In addition, the filing of this Schedule 13G on behalf of FMA and/or FAS
should not be construed as an admission that it is, and it disclaims that it is, the
beneficial owner, as defined in Rule 13d‑3, of any of such securities.
Furthermore, each of FMA and FAS believes that it is not a "group" with FRI, the Principal
Shareholders, or their respective affiliates within the meaning of Rule 13d‑5 under the
Act and that none of them is otherwise required to attribute to any other the
beneficial ownership of the securities held by such person or by any persons or
entities for whom or for which FMA or the FRI affiliates provide investment management
services.

Item 5. Ownership of Five Percent or Less of a Class
If this statement is being filed to report the fact that as of the date hereof
the reporting person has ceased to be the beneficial owner of more than five
percent of the class of securities, check the following [ ].
Item 6. Ownership of More than Five Percent on Behalf of Another Person
The clients of Franklin Advisory Services, LLC, including investment companies
registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 and other managed accounts,
have the right to receive or power to direct the receipt of dividends from, and
the proceeds from the sale of, the securities reported herein.
