Item 1.  Security and Issuer

This statement relates to Ordinary Shares (the "Ordinary Shares") of Taro Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd. (the "Issuer").  The principal executive office of the Issuer is located at 14 Hakitor Street, Haifa Bay 26110, Israel.

Item 2.  Identity and Background

(a)-(c)      The persons filing this Statement and the citizenship of such filers are listed on the cover pages hereto.  The directors and principal executive officers of Franklin Resources, Inc.

Item 3.  Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

The response set forth in Item 3 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended by deleting the text of Item 3 in its entirety and replacing it with the following:

The securities reported herein were acquired with funds of approximately $52.4 million (including brokerage commissions). All such funds were provided from investment capital of one or more open- or closed-end investment companies or other managed accounts that are managed by TAML, an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of FRI.

Item 4.  Purpose of Transaction

TAML purchased the Ordinary Shares for its investment management clients for the purpose of investment.  All such purchases were made in the open market in the ordinary course of TAML’s business.  None of TAML and any other reporting persons covered by this Schedule 13D currently has any plans or proposals that relate to or would result in any of the actions described in paragraphs (a) through (j) of the instructions to Item 4 of Schedule 13D, except as otherwise set forth herein.  TAML was concerned with the effect on the value of its investment management clients’ investment in the Issuer of the Issuer’s failure to timely file its financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005, the consequential delisting of the Ordinary Shares from The NASDAQ Global Select Market and the Issuer’s failure to file audited financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2006, 2007 and 2008.  The explanations publicly announced by the Issuer for its failure to file the financial statements did not allay these concerns.  Accordingly, TAML, together with the other reporting persons, filed this Schedule 13D to provide TAML flexibility to explore appropriate action that it, alone or together with other shareholders in the Issuer, could take to better evaluate and ultimately rectify their concerns. 

On October 18, 2006, counsel, on behalf of certain reporting persons, sent a letter to the Issuer (through counsel), the English translation of which is incorporated by reference herein as Exhibit E, demanding, among other things, that a shareholders meeting be held promptly. 

On December 24, 2006, counsel, on behalf of certain reporting persons, sent a letter to the Issuer and certain counsel, the English translation of which is incorporated by reference herein as Exhibit F, demanding, among other things, that the Issuer exercise all its rights against officers of the Issuer, against members of the audit committee, against the Issuer’s internal auditor, against members of the board of directors and against any other person to recover the Issuer’s damages and losses incurred by their acts and omissions, among other things, as specified in the letter and in accordance with any other cause of action available to the Issuer pursuant to a contract or any law. 

On March 28, 2007, counsel, on behalf of certain reporting persons, sent a letter to the Issuer’s counsel, the English translation of which is incorporated by reference herein as Exhibit G, responding to the Issuer’s Form 20-F filed with the SEC on March 20, 2007, and press release filed March 23, 2007.  That press release stated, among other things, that the Issuer retained a financial advisor to assist it in pursuing strategic alternatives, including an equity investment, an infusion of working capital, or the purchase of the Issuer’s outstanding shares.  The letter of March 28, 2007, among other things: (a) warned the Issuer, its controlling shareholders and directors not to adopt any steps not in the normal course of business, including steps that would affect the Issuer's capital and/or the structure of its capital and/or ownership of its shares and/or ownership of its controlling shareholders’ shares, without receiving the shareholders' consent before their completion; (b) demanded that in the event of a sale of the Issuer's and/or its controlling shareholders’ shares to any third party, such party give reasonable prior notice thereof and offer the reporting persons the opportunity to sell their shares on the same terms; and (c) stated that if the Issuer continued to act without informing the shareholders and considering the interests of all shareholders, the reporting persons would adopt legal measures to preserve the rights and interests of all shareholders.  Counsel for the Issuer responded in a letter dated April 22, 2007, a copy of which is incorporated by reference herein as Exhibit H, rejecting all facts, claims and demands made in the letter of March 28, 2007.

On April 29, 2007, counsel for certain of the reporting persons sent a letter to the Issuer, a copy of which is incorporated by reference herein as Exhibit I, demanding that the Issuer file an action against Zvi Rosenthal, Vice President of the Issuer between 2001 and 2005, for misuse of inside information and breach of fiduciary duty to the Issuer.  The demand arose out of criminal proceedings instituted by the SEC against Mr. Rosenthal and others for conspiring to commit securities fraud as a result of Mr. Rosenthal tipping his sons with confidential information concerning the Issuer, to which Mr. Rosenthal pled guilty, and a subsequent civil suit filed by the SEC against Mr. Rosenthal and others in federal district court arising out of the same actions.  The letter also demanded that the Issuer file an action against its officers whose actions and omissions enabled Mr. Rosenthal to so misuse inside information.

On May 10, 2007, counsel for certain of the reporting persons filed in the District Court in Tel Aviv Jaffo (the “District Court”) an Opening Motion, a copy of which is incorporated by reference herein as Exhibit J, asking the court to declare that the Issuer’s affairs are being conducted in a manner that oppresses the minority shareholders, and among other things, to order the Issuer and certain of its affiliates to:  (a) provide to the shareholders the information to which they are entitled under law and the Issuer’s articles of incorporation, including the Issuer’s books, the findings of the independent examiner appointed by the Issuer’s audit committee (the “independent examiner”) to examine its affairs, the Issuer’s agreements with the Blackstone Group, invitations to make offers to purchase the Issuer or its assets and any such offers received by the Issuer; (b) permit the minority shareholders to appoint a representative on the Issuer’s board of directors and require that any resolution passed by the directors also be approved by the independent directors; (c) amend the Issuer’s articles of association to require court approval before the Issuer issues securities or its controlling shareholders may sell their shares; (d) allow the minority shareholders to sell their shares under the same conditions offered to the controlling shareholders; and (e) appoint a permanent Special Administrator (in addition to a Special Temporary Administrator as described below) to ensure that the Issuer’s affairs are no longer conducted by oppressive means.  On the same date, counsel also filed a motion in the District Court, a copy of which is incorporated by reference herein as Exhibit K, requesting that the court, among other things: (a) appoint a Special Temporary Administrator authorized to demand and receive from the Issuer, and to make copies of, any information relating to the Issuer’s affairs held by the Issuer or anyone on its behalf, all documents relating to the Issuer’s ongoing management and bookkeeping, and information regarding engagements the Issuer is about to carry out with third parties, and to report to the court information necessary to prevent further oppression of the minority shareholders; and (b) instruct the Issuer to order the independent examiner to put its findings and conclusions in a written report as soon as possible, and to immediately forward such report to the Special Temporary Administrator. 

The District Court did not grant the provisional remedies requested, granted an extension until April 30, 2009 for the applicant to update the District Court on how it would like to proceed with this motion.

On May 27, 2007, counsel, on behalf of certain reporting persons, sent two letters to the Issuer’s counsel, the English translations of which are incorporated by reference herein as Exhibits L and M.  One letter stated, among other things, that the proposed merger of the Issuer into a subsidiary of Sun Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd. (“Sun”) was in fact a tender offer subject to approval by the Issuer’s internal audit committee and board of directors, in each case without the directors that have a personal interest in the proposed transaction, and by 95% of the Issuer’s shareholders in a general meeting, including approval by a third of the shareholders without an interest in the transaction.  That letter stated that the Issuer’s directors have not followed appropriate corporate governance procedures for approving the transaction because of their personal interest in it, and that as a result the transaction was void.  That letter also stated that such reporting persons intend to apply to the District Court to obtain a decision that the proposed transactions between the Issuer and Sun are void.  The second letter requested that the Issuer produce to such counsel, among other things, certain documents relating to the proposed transactions between the Issuer and Sun, proposals submitted to the Issuer other than Sun’s, agreements between the Issuer and the Blackstone Group, offers for proposals sent by the Issuer or the Blackstone Group on its behalf, fairness and other opinions obtained in connection with the Issuer’s proposed transactions with Sun, documents relating to the appointment and findings of the independent examiner, employment agreements and resignation letters of the Issuer’s senior vice president and chief financial officer and certain other employees and documents relating to the Issuer’s delisting from the NASDAQ stock market.

On June 12, 2007, counsel for certain of the reporting persons filed in the District Court an Opening Motion, a copy of which is incorporated by reference herein as Exhibit N, asking the court to order and declare (a) that the purported allotment of 6,787,500 shares of the Issuer to Sun at a price of $6 per share is null and void; and (b) that the granting of an option by the Issuer to Sun for an additional allotment of 7,500,000 shares at a price of $6 per share over the course of three years is invalid and void.   This motion was not heard on the merits, but rather rejected.  On June 26 2008, the claimants filed an appeal with the Israel Supreme Court.

On July 11, 2007, Mark Mobius, Executive Chairman of TAML, sent a letter to the Issuer, a copy of which is incorporated by reference herein as Exhibit O, requesting, among other things, that the directors, management, controllers and advisors of the Issuer cancel the proposed merger with Sun and reveal critical information regarding the financial status of the Issuer to all of its shareholders.

On July 19, 2007, Mr. Mobius sent another letter dated July 16, 2007, to the Issuer, a copy of which is incorporated by reference herein as Exhibit P, that, among other things, urged the Issuer to immediately act in the best interests of all shareholders by: (a) revealing audited financial accounts, (b) revealing the results of the independent audit done in 2006, (c) revealing the full details of the fairness opinion done by Merrill Lynch in connection with the proposed Sun merger, (d) revealing the full findings by AlixPartners LLP, and (e) revealing the terms and conditions relating to the Issuer's creditors.

On July 30, 2007, Mr. Mobius sent a further letter dated July 23, 2007, to the Issuer, a copy of which is incorporated by reference herein as Exhibit Q, that, among other things, expressed surprise at the postponement by the Issuer of its Shareholders Meetings which were scheduled for July 23, 2007 and stated that the cancellation of the meetings was invalid and it should now be assumed that the merger was rejected by the shareholders.  That letter also referred to the details of those shareholders voting in the meetings (and the way they voted) having been already requested,  but this information not having been furnished yet and that TAML and other shareholders had been opposed to the merger, inter alia, because of the lack of full information regarding the financial status of the Issuer, the relatively low price paid for a company operating in this highly attractive sector, and the unequal treatment afforded minority shareholders.  That letter also expressed the hope that management of the Issuer and its controllers would take the opportunity to release to the public all relevant documents and data with respect to the merger including the audited financial statements for 2006 and the financial results for the first two quarters of 2007 so that shareholders could properly assess what would be the fair price for the Issuer's shares.  That letter also stated that it was also important for the controllers of the Issuer to reveal any separate agreements that were made with Sun and with their financial advisers regarding the share sale, if there are any, or to confirm that there are none.  That letter also requested more details about the Issuer's release from its non-solicitation obligations included in the Merger Agreement dated May 18, 2007, among the Issuer, Sun and affiliates of Sun, and urged the Issuer's management to discuss and furnish information to the minority shareholders and to explore possible alternative transactions, including inviting other financial and strategic investors to review the investment opportunity.  That letter further expressed the belief that all shareholders should be given the same opportunity to participate in any restructuring effort, expressed the feeling that selling shares to Sun at $6 per share was discriminatory to minority shareholders, and expressed willingness, subject to proper due diligence, to inject further capital at $6.  That letter in addition requested consideration be given to replacement of the management and the board of the Issuer.

On July 10, 2008, TAML issued a press release, a copy of which is incorporated by reference herein as Exhibit R, announcing its rejection of the tender offer by an affiliate of Sun for the Ordinary Shares of the Issuer.  The press release indicated that TAML believes that the offer price of $7.75 per Ordinary Share undervalues the Ordinary Shares, particularly in light of the Issuer's operational improvements and improvement in earnings.  The press release further noted that this determination reflects the recommendation of Glass Lewis and RiskMetrics Group against approval of the merger by the holders of the Ordinary Shares in July 2007. TAML also expressed its support for the plan of the Issuer's board of directors to re-list the Ordinary Shares on NASDAQ and to release the fully audited financial reports for the past years.

The Issuer and certain of its directors filed an Opening Motion in the District Court claiming that Sun was required to make a Special Tender Offer ("STO") when it exercised an option from the Levitt and Moros families to purchase their shares of the Issuer for $7.75 each.  Certain of the reporting persons requested to join the proceedings and the District Court granted such request.  Generally, under the Israeli Companies Law, whenever a person purchases more than 45% of a company’s voting rights, when there is no other person holding more than 45% of such rights, an STO is required.  On August 26, 2008, the District Court rejected the motion and the Issuer and its directors that were parties to the Opening Motion filed an appeal with the Supreme Court.  The reporting persons who had joined the Opening Motion asked the Supreme Court to be regarded as appellants and this request was granted.  The Supreme Court held a hearing on December 8, 2008, at which it directed the parties to try and resolve the matter in an amicable way within 30 days.  On January 7, 2009, Sun informed the Supreme Court that the deliberations with the Issuer have not been fruitful.  On the same date, certain of the reporting persons notified the Supreme Court that although Sun promised to provide a detailed offer within 30 days, it did not approach them with an offer.  They and the Issuer requested that the Supreme Court issue a verdict on the merits.  The parties agreed on January 26, 2009, to submit the dispute to mediation for 30 days.  The Supreme Court held on January 27, 2009, that the parties should update the court after the completion of the mediation period and if the parties could not reach an agreement then the court would issue a decision.

At the annual general meeting of the Issuer held on December 31, 2009, TAML did not vote any of the shares over which it had voting power in favor of the election of directors nominated by the Issuer nor for the enhanced indemnification provisions proposed by the Issuer.  TAML believed that support for the Issuer's nominees and for the indemnification provision was not warranted by the record of the Issuer's Board and management.  TAML disclosed its intent with respect to voting at the annual general meeting in a press released attached as Exhibit S.

TAML’s investment management clients may in the future acquire additional Ordinary Shares or other securities of the Issuer, in the open market, in privately-negotiated purchases or otherwise.

Franklin Resources, Inc. may from time to time disclose information regarding the litigation discussed in this Item 4 in its periodic reports.  To the extent such disclosure is made, the discussion in this Item 4 is qualified in its entirety by such disclosure.

Item 5.  Interest in Securities of the Issuer

The response set forth in Item 5 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended by deleting the text of Item 5 in its entirety and replacing it with the following:

(a-b) The Ordinary Shares of the Issuer (the “Securities”) reported on this Schedule 13D were beneficially owned by one or more open- or closed-end investment companies or other managed accounts that are investment management clients of TAML.  Investment management contracts grant to TAML all investment and/or voting power over the securities owned by such clients, except as otherwise disclosed below.  Therefore, for purposes of Rule 13d-3 under the Act, TAML could have been deemed to be the beneficial owners of the Securities.

Beneficial ownership 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 of FRI, are exercised independently from FRI and from all other investment management subsidiaries of FRI (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.

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 or for which FRI subsidiaries provide investment management services.  The number of shares that FRI and the Principal Shareholders may be deemed to beneficially own and the percentage of the class of which such shares are a part are reported in Items 11 and 13 of the cover pages for FRI and each of the Principal Shareholders.  FRI, the Principal Shareholders and TAML disclaim any pecuniary interest in any of the Securities.  In addition, the filing of this Schedule 13D on behalf of the Principal Shareholders, FRI and FRI affiliates, as applicable, should not be construed as an admission that any of them is, and each disclaims that it is, the beneficial owner, as defined in Rule 13d-3, of any of the Securities.

FRI, the Principal Shareholders, and TAML 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 FRI subsidiaries provide investment management services.

The number of Ordinary Shares as to which each reporting person on this Schedule 13D has:

(c) Other than the transactions described in Exhibit B of this statement, none of the reporting persons nor, to the best of their knowledge, any of the persons listed in Exhibit A, have effected any transactions in the Ordinary Shares during the 60-day period preceding the date this statement was filed.

(d) No person other than the clients of TAML is known to have the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, the securities being reported herein. 

(e) Not applicable.

Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer

Other than as disclosed above, no persons named in Item 2 herein, nor to the best of such person’s knowledge, no person named in Exhibit A hereto, has any contract, arrangement, understanding or relationship (legal or otherwise) with any person with respect to any securities of the Issuer, including, but not limited to, transfer or voting of any of the securities, finders’ fees, joint ventures, loan or option arrangements, puts or calls, guarantees of profits, division of profits or loss, or the giving or withholding of proxies.
