Important information to help you understand and vote on the proposals
Please read the full text of the proxy statement. Below is a brief overview of the proposals to be voted upon. Your vote is important. We appreciate you placing your trust in Fidelity and look forward to helping you achieve your financial goals.
Q. What am I being asked to vote on?
A. The Board of Trustees of the Fidelity funds, with the support of Fidelity Management & Research Co. (FMR), has decided to create a two-Board structure. In connection with this decision, you are being asked to elect a Board of Trustees to oversee the funds you own.
You also are being asked to amend the Declaration of Trust for your funds to reduce the required quorum for future shareholder meetings.
Q. What do you mean by a two-Board structure?
A. Historically, the Board of each Fidelity fund has consisted of the same group of individual Trustees who serve as Trustees for all other Fidelity funds. In effect, the Fidelity funds have been overseen by a single Board of Trustees. The Trustees of the Fidelity funds -- with the support of FMR -- have made a decision to reorganize themselves into two separate groups and thereby create two Boards. One Board will oversee Fidelity's equity and high income funds (currently [212] funds with approximate assets of [$862] billion), while the second Board will oversee Fidelity's investment-grade bond, money market, and asset allocation funds (currently [154] funds with approximate assets of [$442] billion).
Q. Why did the Board decide to create a two-Board structure?
A. The decision was based on three specific factors:
Q. What is involved in creating a two-Board structure?
A. Some existing Trustees and Advisory Board Members are proposed to serve on the Board overseeing the equity and high income funds, while the others are proposed to serve on the Board overseeing the fixed income and asset allocation funds. In some cases, the two Boards can be created by having an existing Trustee resign and the remaining Trustees fill the vacancy. In the majority of cases, however, the Investment Company Act of 1940 (1940 Act) requires that a shareholder meeting be held to elect Trustees.
Q. When and how will the two-Board structure be implemented?
A. The two-Board structure will be implemented at the same time for all Fidelity funds. On August 1, 2008, or, if later, immediately after the last election is held for any Fidelity fund scheduled to elect Trustees in connection with implementing the two-Board structure, the following will occur: Current Trustees will remain on the Boards to which they have been elected or appointed and resign from the Boards on which they will no longer serve. Former Advisory Board Members that have been elected or appointed as Trustees will join the Boards on which they will serve going forward. The size of the Board that will oversee the equity and high income funds will be fixed at 10 Trustees, and the size of the Board that will oversee the fixed income and asset allocation funds will be fixed at eight Trustees.
Q. What is the affiliation of the Board and Fidelity?
A. Currently, there are two "interested" Trustees and nine "Independent" Trustees. Under the two-Board structure, it is expected that there initially will be 2 interested Trustees on each Board, 8 Independent Trustees on the equity and high income Board, and 6 Independent Trustees on the fixed income and asset allocation Board. Trustees are determined to be "interested" by virtue of, among other things, their affiliation with the funds, trusts, or various other entities under common control with FMR. Interested Trustees are compensated by FMR. Independent Trustees have no affiliation with FMR and are compensated by each individual fund. Each of the new Boards is expected to have 75 percent or more Independent Trustees.
Q. Will the Trustees that currently oversee my funds change?
A. Trustees on both Boards will continue to be experienced executives who will meet throughout the year to oversee the funds' activities, review contractual arrangements with companies that provide services to the funds, and review fund performance. However, certain changes in Board membership are proposed, depending on which Board a Trustee expects to join.
The current Board consists of 11 Trustees: Dennis J. Dirks, Albert R. Gamper, George H. Heilmeier, James H. Keyes, Marie L. Knowles, Ned C. Lautenbach, Cornelia M. Small, William S. Stavropoulos, and Kenneth L. Wolfe are Independent Trustees, and Edward C. Johnson 3d and James C. Curvey are interested Trustees.Art Johnson, Alan Lacy, Joseph Mauriello, David M. Thomas, and Michael E. Wiley currently serve on the Advisory Board. At the time that the two-Board structure is implemented, the size of the equity and high income funds' Board will be fixed at 10 Trustees and the size of the fixed income and asset allocation funds' Board will be fixed at eight Trustees.
Dennis J. Dirks, Alan Lacy, Ned C. Lautenbach, Joseph Mauriello, Cornelia M. Small, William S. Stavropoulos, David M. Thomas, Michael E. Wiley, James C. Curvey, and Edward C. Johnson 3d are proposed to serve on the Board overseeing the equity and high income funds. Albert R. Gamper, George H. Heilmeier, Art Johnson, James H. Keyes, Marie L. Knowles, Kenneth L. Wolfe, James C. Curvey, and Edward C. Johnson 3d are proposed to serve on the Board overseeing the fixed income and asset allocation funds. Biographical information for each nominee for the equity and high income Board is included in the proxy statement.
The Trustees fully expect that the environment of strong governance of the funds and protection of the interests of fund shareholders will continue under the new structure.
Q. Why are you proposing to reduce the required quorum for future shareholder meetings?
A. Lowering the quorum requirement will facilitate holding shareholder meetings to approve important matters necessary for the conduct of the trusts' business. When not enough shareholders vote, a trust may be forced to adjourn meetings multiple times and incur the expense of additional shareholder solicitations and proxy solicitors in order to obtain the shareholder vote necessary to hold a meeting. The reduced quorum requirement is not prohibited by Massachusetts or federal law.
Although the lower quorum requirement will allow for the approval of some matters by shareholders constituting less than a majority of the outstanding shares, certain other proposals will still require a higher number of shares to be voted to meet the threshold required to approve the proposal. For example, the 1940 Act requires that certain items, such as management contracts and 12b-1 plans, be approved by a majority of a fund's outstanding voting securities. Under the 1940 Act, the vote of a "majority of the outstanding voting securities" means the affirmative vote of the lesser of (a) 67% or more of the voting securities present at a shareholder meeting or represented by proxy if the holders of more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities are present or represented by proxy, or (b) more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities. The reduced quorum requirement will not affect such matters.
Q. What role does the Board play generally?
A. The Trustees serve as the fund shareholders' representatives. Members of the Board are fiduciaries and have an obligation to serve the best interests of shareholders, including consideration of policy changes. In addition, the Trustees review fund performance, oversee fund activities, and review contractual arrangements with companies that provide services to the fund.
Q. Are Board members paid?
A. Each Independent Trustee receives a fee for his or her service on the Board and participates in a deferred compensation plan. You can find the compensation table, which details fees that have been paid to the Trustees, in the proxy statement.
Q. Has the funds' Board of Trustees approved the proposals?
A. Yes. The Board of Trustees has unanimously approved each of the proposals, and recommends that you vote to approve them.
Q. Who is D.F. King & Co., Inc.?
A. D.F. King is a third party proxy vendor that Fidelity hires to call shareholders and record proxy votes. In order to hold a shareholder meeting, quorum must be reached - which currently is a majority of the shares entitled to vote in person or by proxy at the shareholder meeting. If quorum is not attained, the meeting must adjourn to a future date. Fidelity attempts to reach shareholders via multiple mailings to remind them to cast their vote. As the meeting approaches, phone calls may be made to clients who have not yet voted their shares so that the shareholder meeting does not have to be postponed.
Voting your shares immediately will help minimize additional solicitation expenses and prevent the need to make a call to you to solicit your vote.
Q. Who is paying for this proxy mailing and for the other solicitation costs associated with this shareholder meeting?
A. The expenses in connection with preparing this Proxy Statement and its enclosures and all solicitations will be paid by each fund and class, as applicable, provided the expenses do not exceed any existing expense caps. Expenses exceeding an expense cap will be paid by FMR.
Q. How many votes am I entitled to cast?
A. As a shareholder, you are entitled to one vote for each dollar of net asset value you own of the fund on the record date. The record date is January 22, 2008.
Q. How do I vote my shares?
A. You can vote your shares by completing and signing the enclosed proxy card(s) and mailing it in the enclosed postage-paid envelope. You may also vote by touch-tone telephone by calling the toll-free number printed on your proxy card(s) and following the recorded instructions. In addition, you may vote through the internet by visitingwww.proxyweb.com/proxy and following the on-line instructions. If you need any assistance, or have any questions regarding the proposals or how to vote your shares, please call Fidelity at 1-800-544-3198 (other than for Advisor classes) or 1-877-208-0098 (Advisor classes only).
Q. How do I sign the proxy card?
A. Individual Accounts: Shareholders should sign exactly as their names appear on the account registration shown on the card.
Joint Accounts: Eitherowner may sign, but the name of the person signing should conform exactly to a name shown in the registration.
All Other Accounts: The person signing must indicate his or her capacity. For example, a trustee for a trust or other entity should sign, "Ann B. Collins, Trustee."

VOTE REQUIRED: Approval of Proposal 1 requires the affirmative vote of a pluralitymajority of the shares of thean entire trust voted in person or by proxy at the Meeting. ApprovalMeeting, and a plurality of Proposals2such shares is sufficient to elect trustees pursuant to Proposal 2. With respect to Proposal 1, votes to ABSTAIN and3 requires broker non-votes will have the affirmativesame effect as votes cast AGAINST the Proposal. With respect to Proposal 2, votes to ABSTAIN and broker non-votes will have no effect.
1. TO AMEND THE DECLARATION OF TRUST TO REDUCE THE REQUIRED QUORUM FOR FUTURE SHAREHOLDER MEETINGS.
Each funds' Declaration of Trust currently provides that a majority of the shares entitled to vote shall be a quorum for the transaction of business at a shareholders' meeting. As amended, the Declaration of Trust (Article VIII, Section 3) would reduce the quorum required to one-third of the shares entitled to vote.
Lowering the quorum requirement will facilitate holding shareholder meetings to approve important matters necessary for the conduct of a "majoritytrust's business, such as the election of Trustees. When not enough shareholders vote, a trust may be forced to adjourn meetings multiple times and incur the expense of additional shareholder solicitations and proxy solicitors in order to obtain the shareholder vote necessary to hold a meeting. The reduced quorum requirement is not prohibited by Massachusetts or federal law.
Although the lower quorum requirement will allow for the approval of some matters by shareholders constituting less than a majority of the outstanding voting securities"shares, certain other proposals will still require a higher number of shares to be voted to meet the appropriate fund.Underthreshold required to approve the proposal. For example, the Investment Company Act of 1940 (1940 Act), requires that certain items, such as management contracts and 12b-1 plans, be approved by a majority of a fund's outstanding voting securities. Under the 1940 Act, the vote of a "majority of the outstanding voting securities" means the affirmative vote of the lesser of (a) 67% or more of the voting securities present at the Meetinga shareholder meeting or represented by proxy if the holders of more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities are present or represented by proxy, or (b) more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities. With respectThe reduced quorum requirement will not affect such matters.
Shareholders have the right to vote on any Declaration of Trust amendment affecting their right to vote or on any matter submitted to the shareholders by the Trustees. On May 17, 2007, the Trustees approved the proposed amendment and also authorized its submission to each Proposal, votestrust's shareholders for their approval at this Meeting.
If approved, of the Declaration of Trust will be amended as follows (new language is underlined; language to ABSTAINbe deleted is [bracketed]):
ARTICLE VIII
SHAREHOLDERS' VOTING POWERS AND MEETINGS
QUORUM AND REQUIRED VOTE
Section 3.Except when a higher quorum is required by any provision of this Declaration of Trust or the Bylaws, one-third [A majority] of Shares entitled to vote in person or by proxy shall be a quorum for the transaction of business at a Shareholders' meeting, except that where any provision of law or of this Declaration of Trust permits or requires that holders of any Series or Class shall vote as a Series or Class thenone-third [a majority] of the aggregate number of Shares of that Series or Class entitled to vote shall be necessary to constitute a quorum for the transaction of business by that Series or Class. Any lesser number shall be sufficient for adjournments. Any adjourned session or sessions may be held, within a reasonable time after the date set for the original meeting, without the necessity of further notice. Except when a larger vote is required by applicable law or by any provision of this Declaration of Trust or the Bylaws, if any, a majority of the Shares voted in person or by proxy shall decide any questions and broker non-votes, if applicable,a plurality shall elect a Trustee, provided that where any provision of law or of this Declaration of Trust permits or requires that the holders of any Series or Class shall vote as a Series or Class, then a majority of the Shares of that Series or Class voted on the matter shall decide that matter insofar as that Series or Class is concerned. Shareholders may act by unanimous written consent. Actions taken by a Series or Class may be consented to unanimously in writing by Shareholders of that Series or Class.
Conclusion. The Board of Trustees of each trust has concluded that the proposal will havebenefit the same effect as votes cast AGAINSTtrust and its shareholders. The Trustees recommend voting FOR the Proposal.proposal. The amended Declaration of Trust will become effective upon shareholder approval. If the proposal is not approved by shareholders of a trust, of the Declaration of Trust will remain unchanged.
1.2. TO ELECT A BOARD OF TRUSTEES.
The purpose of this proposal is to elect a Board of Trustees in connection with creating a two-Board structure for the Fidelity family of funds.
Fidelity's mutual fund business and the broader mutual fund marketplace continue to expand and evolve. As a result, the Trustees of the trust. PursuantFidelity funds, together with FMR, have been considering ways to structure the provisionsBoard for each Fidelity fund in order to ensure that Fidelity's mutual fund shareholders continue to be well served by Trustees in the years ahead. Historically, the Board of each Fidelity fund has consisted of the Declarationsame group of Trustindividual Trustees who serve as Trustees for all other Fidelity funds. In effect, the Fidelity funds have been overseen by a single Board of Trustees. The Trustees of the trust,Fidelity funds -- with the support of FMR -- have made a decision to reorganize themselves into two separate groups and thereby create two Boards. One Board will oversee Fidelity's equity and high income funds (currently [212] funds with approximate assets of [$862] billion), while the second Board will oversee Fidelity's investment-grade bond, money market, and asset allocation funds (currently [154] funds with approximate assets of [$442] billion).
In connection with creating two Boards, a slate of Trustees must be put in place to oversee each group of funds (the funds and trusts were aligned by investment discipline in June 2007). Some existing Trustees and Advisory Board members are proposed to serve on the Board overseeing the equity and high income funds, while the others are proposed to serve on the Board overseeing the fixed income and asset allocation funds. In some cases, the two Boards can be created by having one existing Trustee resign and the remaining Trustees fill the vacancy. In the majority of cases, however, the 1940 Act requires that a shareholder meeting be held to elect Trustees. You have received this proxy statement because you own one or more Fidelity equity and/or high income funds and you are being asked to elect a Board of Trustees to oversee your funds.
The Trustees, with the support of FMR, made the decision to create a two-Board structure in order to plan for the future, and based their decision on three specific factors. First, Fidelity's mutual fund business continues to diversify into new asset classes and product types. For example, over the past few years, Fidelity has expanded its product line of multi-asset class funds that invest in a variety of asset classes such as preferred stocks, REITs, inflation-protected securities, floating-rate securities, and commodities. In addition, lifecycle funds and other types of packaged solutions continue to grow in popularity. As greater numbers of individuals continue to save for, and transition into, retirement, the Trustees and FMR expect an increased demand for innovative products.
Second, as the securities marketplace has evolved in recent years, increasingly complex investment strategies are available to Fidelity's mutual funds. For example, the fixed income marketplace has significantly expanded with new types of securities including different types of futures, options, and swaps, and that trend is likely to continue.
Finally, given prevailing demographic and business trends, the Trustees and FMR expect that Fidelity's mutual fund business will continue to expand in the future. In recent years, Fidelity has made efforts to position the firm as the most trusted provider of lifetime investment solutions in the U.S. At the same time, the amount of assets held by Americans over age sixty is projected to increase dramatically between now and 2012 as the Baby Boomer generation nears and enters retirement. The Trustees and FMR believe this provides a significant growth opportunity for Fidelity's business and for the mutual fund industry as a whole. Increased interest in principal preservation and income distribution is expected to drive asset growth in Fidelity's fixed income funds and asset allocation products, in particular.
The two-Board structure will be implemented at the same time for all Fidelity funds. On August 1, 2008, or, if later, immediately after the last election is held for any Fidelity fund scheduled to elect Trustees in connection with implementing a two-Board structure, the following will occur: Current Trustees will remain on the Boards to which they have determinedbeen elected or appointed and resign from the Boards on which they will no longer serve. Former Advisory Board members that have been elected or appointed as Trustees will join the numberBoards on which they will serve going forward. The size of Trustees shallthe Board that will oversee the equity and high income funds will be fixed at 13. It is intended10 Trustees, and the size of the Board that will oversee the fixed income and asset allocation funds will be fixed at 8 Trustees. The Trustees fully expect that the enclosed proxyenvironment of strong governance of the funds and protection of the interests of fund shareholders will be votedcontinue under the new structure.
Except for Alan Lacy, Joseph Mauriello,David M. Thomas, and Michael E. Wiley, all nominees for the nominees listed below unless such authority has been withheld in the proxy. A nominee shall be elected immediately upon shareholder approval, unless he or she is proposed to begin service at a later date. It is proposed that James H.

<R>Proposals 2 and 3. TO APPROVE AN AMENDED MANAGEMENT CONTRACT FOR FIDELITY BLUE CHIP GROWTH FUND.</R>
<R>The Board of Trustees, including the Trustees who are not "interested persons" of the trust or of FMR (the Independent Trustees), has approved, and recommends that shareholders of the fund approve, a proposal to adopt an amended management contract with FMR (the Amended Contract) in the form attached to this Proxy Statement as Exhibit 1. The Amended Contract changes the performance benchmark used to determine a portion of the management fee that FMR receives from the fund for managing its investments and business affairs. The fund currently pays a management fee linked to the fund's performance with respect to the Standard & Poor's 500SM Index (S&P 500®). The Trustees recommend that the fee be tied instead to the fund's performance with respect to the Russell 1000® Growth Index. </R>
<R>The Amended Contract also modifies one other provision of the fund's existing management contract with FMR (the Present Contract). Under the Present Contract, shareholders generally have the right to vote on any changes to the index used to calculate the fund's performance adjustment (the Performance Adjustment Index). The Amended Contract gives the Board of Trustees broader authority to designate an alternative Performance Adjustment Index without shareholder vote, subject to the requirements of the 1940 Act and the Investment Advisers Act of 1940.</R>
<R>In addition to these modifications discussed in more detail below, other non-material changes to the Amended Contract are proposed (see Exhibit 1). The changes are intended to clarify certain language in the Present Contract. If at least one of the proposals is approved by shareholders, these non-material changes will be included in the Amended Contract.</R>Appendix F.
<R>Present and Amended Contracts. FMR is the fund's investment adviser pursuant to the Present Contract dated July 1, 2000, which was approved by shareholders on June 14, 2000. (For Information on FMR, see the section entitled "Activities and Management of FMR," on page<Click Here>.) A copy of the Amended Contract, marked to indicate the proposed amendments, is supplied as Exhibit 1 on page<Click Here>. Except for these modifications and for nonmaterial changes intended to clarify certain language in the Present Contract, the Amended Contract is substantially identical to the Present Contract. (For a detailed discussion of the fund's Present Contract, refer to the section entitled "Present Management Contract for Fidelity Blue Chip Growth Fund," on page<Click Here>.) If approved by shareholders, the Amended Contract will take effect on the first day of the first month following approval and will remain in effect through July 31, 2006, and thereafter, only as long as its continuance is approved at least annually by (i) the vote, cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose, of a majority of the Independent Trustees and (ii) the vote of either a majority of the Trustees or a majority of the outstanding shares of the fund. If the Amended Contract is not approved, the Present Contract will continue in effect through July 31, 2006, and thereafter only as long as its continuance is approved at least annually as described above.</r>
<R>As summarized below, shareholders are being asked to approve two proposals to amend the Present Contract.</R>
<R>PROPOSAL 2. TO APPROVE A CHANGE IN THE PERFORMANCE ADJUSTMENT INDEX FOR FIDELITY BLUE CHIP GROWTH FUND.</R>
<R>The Amended Contract modifies section 3 of the Present Contract to prospectively change the index used to calculate the fund's Performance Adjustment from the S&P 500 (the Current Index) to the Russell 1000 Growth Index (the Proposed Index), because the fund is a "growth" fund and the index is a "growth" index.</R>
<R>Current Management Fee. The fund's current management fee is calculated and paid monthly, and is normally expressed as an annual percentage of the fund's average net assets. The fee has two components: a Basic Fee and a Performance Adjustment. The Basic Fee is an annual percentage of the fund's average net assets for the current month. The Basic Fee Rate is the sum of a Group Fee Rate, which declines as FMR's fund assets under management increase, and a fixed individual fund fee rate of 0.30%. The Basic Fee Rate for the fund's fiscal year ended July 31, 2005 (not including the fee amendments discussed below) was 0.57%.</R>
<R> The Performance Adjustment is a positive or negative dollar amount applied to the Basic Fee and is based on the fund's performance and assets for the most recent 36 months. If the fund outperforms its current comparative index, the Current Index, over 36 months, FMR receives a positive Performance Adjustment, which increases the management fee. If the fund underperforms the Current Index, FMR's management fee is reduced by a negative Performance Adjustment. The Performance Adjustment is an annual percentage of the fund's average net assets over the 36-month performance period. The Performance Adjustment Rate is 0.02%Trustee compensation information for each percentage point (the performance of the fund and the Current Index each being calculated to the nearest 0.01%) of outperformance or underperformance, subject to a maximum rate of ±0.20%. Under the Present Contract, FMR received a negative Performance Adjustment for the fund's fiscal year ended July 31, 2005, which equaled (0.17)% of the fund's average net assets for the year.</R>
<R>Proposed Amendments to the Present Management Contract. The proposed changecovered by this proxy statement is included in the Performance Adjustment Index will not directly affect the fund's investment policies which permit FMR to use a variety of strategies in managing the fund. However, it will change the benchmark used to determine a portion of FMR's management fee. To the extent that a fund's performance benchmark represents its "neutral" investment position (or its universe), a benchmark change could change the fund's investment characteristics. If the proposal is approved, the fund will move from a benchmark designed as a broad measure of the performance of the overall U.S. stock market (including both value and growth stocks) to one with a narrower focus on growth stocks of large-sized companies. FMR believes the Proposed Index conforms more closely to the investment strategy of Fidelity Blue Chip Growth Fund and better represents the fund's investment universe than the broader universe measured by the Current Index.</R>Appendix G.
<R>The financial impact of the proposed changes to the management fee is summarized briefly in the following paragraphs. The changes are discussed in more detail in the remainder of the proposal.</R>
<R>Financial Impact of Proposed Change in Performance Adjustment. Because the change will be implemented prospectively, the future impact on management fees will depend on the fund's future performance relative to the Proposed Index. However, the past performance of the Proposed Index and the fund can be used to show what the impact would have been on management fees for fiscal 2005 (12 months ended July 31, 2005) and for the more recent 12-month period ended December 31, 2005 if the Proposed Index had been the fund's Performance Adjustment Index. For this purpose, the performance of the Proposed Index was substituted for the performance of the Current Index for the rolling 36-month performance periods ended during the fiscal year and more recent 12-month period. (Under the terms of the Amended Contract, the proposed change in the fund's Performance Adjustment Index will actually occur on a gradual basis over the 36-month period following shareholder approval of the Amended Contract. See "Implementation of Change in Performance Adjustment Index" on page<Click Here> for details.)</r>
<R>For fiscal 2005, the negative Performance Adjustment using the Current Index totaled (0.1783%) of the fund's average net assets. For fiscal 2005, the negative Performance Adjustment using the Proposed Index would have totaled (0.0401%) of the fund's average net assets. Thus, for fiscal 2005, if the Proposed Index had been the fund's Performance Adjustment Index, the fund's management fees would have been $30,992,983 higher, or 0.1382% higher as a percentage of the fund's average net assets for the year, compared to the rate FMR was entitled to receive under the Present Contract.</R>
<R>For the 12 months ended December 31, 2005, the negative Performance Adjustment using the Current Index totaled (0.1853%) of the fund's average net assets. For the 12 months ended December 31, 2005, the negative Performance Adjustment using the Proposed Index would have totaled (0.0914%) of the fund's average net assets. Thus, for the 12 months ended December 31, 2005, if the Proposed Index had been the fund's Performance Adjustment Index, the fund's management fees would have been $20,969,230 higher, or 0.0939% higher as a percentage of the fund's average net assets for the year, compared to the rate FMR was entitled to receive under the Present Contract.</R>
<R>Change in Performance Adjustment Index</R>
<R>Comparison of Proposed and Current Performance Adjustment Indices. If the proposal is approved, the fund will change its Performance Adjustment Index prospectively to the Proposed Index, the Russell 1000 Growth Index. The Russell 1000 Growth Index is a market capitalization-weighted index of those stocks of the 1,000 largest U.S. domiciled companies that exhibit growth-oriented characteristics. The Proposed Index is designed to measure the performance of growth stocks (those with higher price-to-book ratios and higher forecasted growth values) of large-sized companies.</R>
<R>The Current Index is a market capitalization-weighted index of 500 common stocks chosen for market size, liquidity, and industry group representation to represent U.S. equity performance. The S&P 500 is designed as a broad measure of the performance of the overall U.S. stock market, and includes both value and growth stocks, whereas the Russell 1000 Growth Index includes only growth stocks. FMR believes that the Proposed Index is preferable to the Current Index because the Proposed Index has a narrower focus on growth stocks of large-sized companies, which conforms more closely to the fund's growth-oriented investment strategy. FMR also believes that the Proposed Index provides a better representation of the fund's investment universe and is an appropriate index for performance fee purposes. Furthermore, FMR believes the Proposed Index will help communicate to investors more clearly the fund's growth style orientation.</R>
<R>The following chart compares the rolling 36-month returns (the measurement period used to calculate Performance Adjustments) of the fund and the Current and Proposed Indices for the past three years ended December 31, 2005. The chart shows that the returns of the fund have corresponded more closely to those of the Proposed Index over the period.</R>

<R>The following chart compares the calendar year performance of both indices for the past ten years. The chart shows that the two benchmarks have performed differently at times over this period, with the Proposed Index outperforming the Current Index five of the past ten calendar years.</R>
<R>CURRENT VS. PROPOSED PERFORMANCE FEE INDICES CALENDAR YEARTOTAL RETURNS</R>
<R>Implementation of Change in Performance Adjustment Index. If the proposal is approved, the change in the fund's Performance Adjustment Index will be implemented on a prospective basis beginning with the first day of the month following shareholder approval. However, because the Performance Adjustment is based on a rolling 36-month measurement period, comparisons to the Proposed Index will not be fully implemented for 36 months after shareholder approval. During this transition period, the fund's returns will be compared to a 36-month blended index return that reflects the performance of the Current Index for the portion of the performance period prior to adoption and the performance of the Proposed Index for the remainder of the period. For example, the Performance Adjustment for the first full month following shareholder approval would be calculated by comparing the fund's performance over the 36-month performance period to a blended index return calculated using the Current Index's performance for the first 35 months of the performance period and the Proposed Index's performance for the 36th month. Each month for the following 35 months, the blended index return would reflect an additional month of the Proposed Index's performance and one less month of the Current Index's performance. At the conclusion of the transition period, the performance of the Current Index would be eliminated from the Performance Adjustment calculation, and the calculation would include only the performance of the Proposed Index.</R>
<R>Comparison of Management Fees. The following tables compare the fund's management fee for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2005 or the 12-month period ended December 31, 2005, as applicable, under the terms of the Present Contract, to the management fee the fund would have incurred if the proposed change in Performance Adjustment Index had been in effect. For this purpose, the Performance Adjustment amounts presented for the Amended Contract for fiscal 2005 or the 12-month period ended December 31, 2005, as applicable, have been calculated using the rolling 36-month historical performance of the Proposed Index during the periods. Management fees are expressed in dollars and as percentages of the fund's average net assets for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2005 or the 12-month period ended December 31, 2005, as applicable.</R>

<R>The following tables provide data concerning the fund's management fees and expenses as a percentage of average net assets for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2005 or the 12-month period ended December 31, 2005, as applicable, under the Present Contract and if the proposed change in Performance Adjustment Index had been in effect during the same periods. As with the tables above, the Performance Adjustment amounts incorporated in the management fee expenses listed for the Amended Contract have been calculated using the rolling 36-month historical performance of the Proposed Index during the fiscal year ended July 31, 2005 or the 12-month period ended December 31, 2005, as applicable.</R>
<R>The following tables also describe the fees and expenses that are incurred when you buy, hold, or sell shares of the fund. The annual fund operating expenses provided below for the fund do not reflect the effect of any reduction of certain expenses during the fiscal year ended July 31, 2005 or the 12-month period ended December 31, 2005, as applicable.</R>

<R>A portion of the brokerage commissions that the fund pays is used to reduce the fund's expenses. In addition, through arrangements with the fund's custodian and transfer agent, credits realized as a result of uninvested cash balances are used to reduce custodian and transfer agent expenses. Including these reductions, the total operating expenses presented in the table for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2005 would have been 0.64% under the Present Contract and 0.77% under the Amended Contract. Including these reductions, the total operating expenses presented in the table for the 12-month period ended December 31, 2005 would have been 0.63% under the Present Contract and 0.69% under the Amended Contract.</R>
<R>Example: The following illustrates the expenses on a $10,000 investment under the fees and expenses stated above, assuming (1) 5% annual return and (2) redemption at the end of each time period:</R>
<R>Fiscal Year Ended July 31, 2005 | 1 Year | 3 Years | 5 Years | 10 Years</R> |

<R>Amended Contract | $ 76 | $ 237 | $ 411 | $ 918</R> |
<R>The purpose of this example and the table is to assist investors in understanding the various costs and expenses of investing in shares of the fund. The example above should not be considered a representation of past or future expenses of the fund. Actual expenses may vary from year to year and may be higher or lower than those shown above.</R>
<R>PROPOSAL 3. TO AUTHORIZE THE TRUSTEES TO CHANGE THE PERFORMANCE ADJUSTMENT INDEX FOR FIDELITY BLUE CHIP GROWTH FUND IN THE FUTURE WITHOUT A SHAREHOLDER VOTE.</R>
<R>Section 3 of the Amended Contract allows the Board of Trustees, on behalf of the fund, to change the fund's Performance Adjustment Index without a shareholder vote. This ability is subject to the provisions of the Investment Company Act of 1940 and the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as modified or interpreted by the SEC (the Acts). In contrast, the Present Contract requires the vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the fund to authorize such changes.</R>
<R>The proposed modification to the Present Contract will allow the Board to designate an alternative appropriate index for purposes of calculating the Performance Adjustment for the fund without a shareholder vote,provided the Acts permit them to do so. Currently, the Acts do not permit the Board to make such a change, and SEC approval would be required to do so. However, if future changes to the Acts or SEC positions allow this flexibility, the Board would be permitted to change the index without a shareholder vote. For example, if the index provider discontinued the Performance Adjustment Index, the Amended Contract would give the Board the ability to change the fund's Performance Adjustment Index without the delay and expense of having to first conduct a proxy solicitation. Any such change would be implemented prospectively as described above in Proposal 2 under "Change in Performance Adjustment Index - Implementation of Change in Performance Adjustment Index." In short, the proposed modification gives the Board added flexibility to amend the Present Contract with respect to the Performance Adjustment Index, subject to the constraints of the Acts. However, even if permitted under applicable law, the Board would only avail itself of this new flexibility only if it were in the best interest of the fund and its shareholders to do so.</R>
<R>Board Approval of Investment Advisory Contracts and Management Fees.</R>
<R>Fidelity Blue Chip Growth Fund</R>
<R>On November 17, 2005, the Board of Trustees, including the independent Trustees (together, the Board), voted to approve an amended contract (the Amended Contract) for the fund and to submit the Amended Contract to shareholders for their approval. If approved by shareholders, the Amended Contract will prospectively change the index used to calculate the fund's performance adjustment from the S&P 500 Index (the Current Index) to the Russell 1000 Growth Index (the Proposed Index). The Amended Contract also will allow the Board to change the fund's performance adjustment index in the future without a shareholder vote, if applicable law permits the Board to do so. The Board, assisted by the advice of fund counsel and independent Trustees' counsel, considered a broad range of information.</R>
<R>In determining whether to approve the Amended Contract for the fund, the Board was aware that shareholders in the fund have a broad range of investment choices available to them, including a wide choice among mutual funds offered by competitors to Fidelity, and that the fund's shareholders, with the opportunity to review and weigh the disclosure provided by the fund in its prospectus and other public disclosures, have chosen to invest in this fund managed by Fidelity.</R>
<R>Nature, Extent, and Quality of Services Provided by Fidelity. The Board considered the nature, quality, cost and extent of administrative, distribution and shareholder services performed by FMR, sub-advisers, and by affiliated companies.</R>
<R>Shareholder and Administrative Services. The Board noted that the growth of fund assets across the complex allows Fidelity to reinvest in the development of services designed to enhance the value or convenience of the Fidelity funds as investment vehicles. These services include 24-hour access to account information and market information through phone representatives and over the Internet, and investor education materials and asset allocation tools.</R>
<R>Investment in a Large Fund Family. The Board considered the benefits to shareholders of investing in a Fidelity fund, including the benefits of investing in a fund that is part of a large family of funds offering a variety of investment disciplines and providing for a large variety of mutual fund shareholder services.</R>
<R>Investment Performance. In determining whether the Proposed Index is an appropriate index against which to measure the fund's investment performance, the Board considered that the fund seeks growth of capital over the long term by investing primarily in common stocks of well-known and established companies that FMR believes have above-average growth potential. The Board also considered that the Current Index is designed as a broad measure of the performance of the overall U.S. stock market and includes both growth and value stocks (style-flexible), whereas the Proposed Index includes only growth stocks (style-specific). The Board noted that the fund uses a growth-oriented (style-specific) investment strategy that differs from the investment strategies of more style-flexible funds. The Board also considered the diversification of holdings of the fund compared with the diversification of holdings of the Current Index and the Proposed Index.</R>
<R>The Board considered the rolling 36-month returns of the fund compared to the rolling 36-month returns of the Current Index and the Proposed Index over the past three years ended October 31, 2005. The Board noted that the fund's returns have corresponded more closely to the returns of the Proposed Index than to the returns of the Current Index over the period. The Board also noted that over the past ten years, the fund's returns have shown a higher rolling 36-month correlation to the returns of the Proposed Index than to the returns of the Current Index. The Board noted that the Fund underperformed the Current Index by more than it underperformed the Proposed Index over the previous rolling 36-month period. The Board also considered the volatility of the fund compared with the volatility of the Current Index and the Proposed Index.</R>
<R>The Board considered the performance of the Current Index compared to the performance of the Proposed Index over the past ten calendar years and for the ten months ended October 31, 2005. The Board noted that the two indices have performed differently at times over the period, with the Proposed Index outperforming the Current Index in four of the past ten calendar years. The Board also noted that the fund's performance has lagged both the Current Index and the Proposed Index in recent years, but that in the most recent rolling 36 month period, the Fund underperformed the Proposed Index by less than it underperformed the Current Index. The Board noted that had the Proposed Index been in effect, FMR would have received a higher management fee by virtue of having a lower downward adjustment than FMR actually experienced. The Board recognized that, in connection with its annual renewal of the fund's current management contract and sub-advisory agreements at its July 2005 meeting, the Board had reviewed the fund's returns and the returns of the Current Index over the one-, three-, and five-year periods ended December 31, 2004, and had stated that the relative investment performance of the fund was lower than the Current Index over time. The Board also had discussed with FMR actions to be taken by FMR to improve the fund's disappointing performance.</R>
<R>The Board considered that the Proposed Index conforms more closely to the fund's growth-oriented investment strategy and that adopting a style-specific index will help communicate to investors that the fund uses a style-specific investment strategy that differs from the investment strategies of more style-flexible funds. In this regard, the Board also noted that the Amended Contract would give the Board the ability to designate an alternative appropriate index for the fund without the delay and expense of having first to conduct a proxy solicitation, if applicable law would permit the Board to do so.</R>
<R>Based on its review, the Board concluded that the nature, extent, and quality of the services provided by Fidelity will benefit the fund's shareholders, particularly in light of the Board's view that the fund's shareholders benefit from investing in a fund that is part of a large family of funds offering a variety of investment disciplines and services.</R>
<R>Competitiveness of Management Fees and Total Fund Expenses. The Board considered that because the change in the index used to calculate the fund's performance adjustment will be implemented prospectively, the future impact on management fees will depend solely on the fund's future performance relative to the Proposed Index.</R>
<R>Nonetheless, the Board considered the total management fee (basic fee +/- performance adjustment) that the fund incurred under the current management contract (with the Current Index) for the 12-month period ended October 31, 2005, compared to the hypothetical total management fee (basic fee +/- performance adjustment) that the fund would have incurred if the Amended Contract (with the Proposed Index) had been in effect during that period.</R>
<R>The Board noted that under the current management contract, the fund's basic fee would have been reduced by a negative performance adjustment of 18.3 basis points and that if the Amended Contract had been in effect during the 12-month period ended October 31, 2005, the fund's basic fee would have been reduced by a negative performance adjustment of 6.9 basis points. As a result, the fund's hypothetical total management fee would have been 11.4 basis points (or $25,474,528) higher if the Amended Contract had been in effect during that period. The Board noted that the fund's performance lagged both the Current Index and the Proposed Index over that period, but that the negative performance adjustment would have been lower, and the hypothetical total management fee therefore would have been higher, if the Amended Contract had been in effect during that period.</R>
<R>The Board also noted that, although the hypothetical total management fee would have been higher if the Amended Contract had been in effect during the 12-month period ended October 31, 2005, the fund's total management fee still would have ranked below the median of its Total Mapped Group and below the median of its Asset-Size Peer Group (ASPG). The Total Mapped Group comparison focuses on the fund's standing relative to the total universe of comparable funds available to investors in terms of gross management fees before expense reimbursements or caps. The ASPG comparison focuses on the fund's standing relative to non-Fidelity funds similar in size to the fund within the Total Mapped Group.</R>
<R>During the course of the year, the Board receives materials relating to its review of total expenses for each Fidelity fund. This information includes Fidelity fee structures and other information on clients that FMR and its affiliates service in other competitive markets, such as other mutual funds advised or subadvised by FMR or its affiliates, pension plan clients, and other institutional clients. The Board considered this information in its review of the fund's total management fee.</R>
<R>Based on its review, the Board concluded that the fund's management fee was fair and reasonable in light of the services that the fund receives and the other factors considered.</R>
<R>Because the fund's total management fee impacts the fund's total expenses - and because the future impact on management fees will depend solely on the fund's future performance relative to the Proposed Index - the Board will review the fund's total expenses compared to competitive fund median expenses in connection with its future renewal of the fund's management contract and sub-advisory agreements.</R>
<R>Costs of the Services and Profitability. Because the Board was approving an arrangement under which the management fee that the fund pays FMR will depend solely on the fund's future performance relative to the Proposed Index, it did not consider data regarding the impact on Fidelity's costs of services, revenues, or profitability from the new arrangement to be a significant factor in its decision.</R>
<R>In connection with its future renewal of the fund's management contract and sub-advisory agreements, the Board will consider the revenues earned and the expenses incurred by Fidelity in conducting the business of developing, marketing, distributing, managing, administering and servicing the fund and its shareholders.</R>
<R>Economies of Scale. The Board recognized that the fund's Amended Contract incorporates a "group fee" structure, which provides for lower fee rates as total fund assets under FMR's management increase, and for higher fee rates as total fund assets under FMR's management decrease. The Board considered that the group fee is designed to deliver the benefits of economies of scale to fund shareholders when total fund assets increase, even if assets of any particular fund are unchanged or have declined, because some portion of Fidelity's costs are attributable to services provided to all Fidelity funds, and all funds benefit if those costs can be allocated among more assets. The Board concluded that given the group fee structure, fund shareholders will achieve a certain level of economies of scale as assets under FMR's management increase at the fund complex level, regardless of whether Fidelity achieves any such economies of scale.</R>
<R>In connection with its future renewal of the fund's management contract and sub-advisory agreements, the Board will consider whether there have been economies of scale in respect of the management of the Fidelity funds, whether the Fidelity funds (including the fund) have appropriately benefited from any such economies of scale, and whether there is potential for realization of any further economies of scale. </R>
<R>Based on its evaluation of all of the conclusions noted above, and after considering all material factors, the Board ultimately concluded that the Amended Contract is fair and reasonable, and that the Amended Contract should be approved and submitted to shareholders for their approval.</R>
<R>The Board of Trustees, including the Independent Trustees, voted to approve the submission of the Amended Contract to shareholders of the fund and recommends that shareholders of the fund vote FOR Proposals 2 and 3. If Proposals 2 and 3 are both approved by shareholders, the fund will adopt the form of Amended Contract attached as Exhibit 1. If one but not both of Proposals 2 and 3 is approved, the fund will adopt a form of Amended Contract that reflects only that approved Proposal (and the non-material changes shown in Exhibit 1). If approved, the Amended Contract will take effect on the first day of the first month following shareholder approval. If neither Proposal 2 nor Proposal 3 is approved, the Current Management Contract will remain unchanged and in effect.</R>
OTHER BUSINESS
The Board knows of no other business to be brought before the Meeting. However, if any other matters properly come before the Meeting, it is the intention that proxies that do not contain specific instructions to the contrary will be voted on such matters in accordance with the judgment of the persons therein designated.

PRESENT MANAGEMENT CONTRACT OF FIDELITY BLUE CHIP GROWTH FUND
The fund's management contract was approved byshareholders on June 14, 2000. Such approval included modification of several aspects of the fund's management fee that FMR receives from the fund for managing the fund's investments and business affairs, and adoption of the flexibility to further modify the management contact without a shareholder vote subject to the requirements of the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the 1940 Act).
Management Services.Under the terms of its management contract with the fund, FMR acts as investment adviser and, subject to the supervision of the Board of Trustees, has overall responsibility for directing the investments of the fund in accordance with its investment objective, policies and limitations. FMR also provides the fund with all necessary office facilities and personnel for servicing the fund's investments, compensates all officers of the fund and all Trustees who are interested persons of the trust or of FMR, and all personnel of the fund or FMR performing services relating to research, statistical and investment activities.
In addition, FMR or its affiliates, subject to the supervision of the Board of Trustees, provide the management and administrative services necessary for the operation of the fund. These services include providing facilities for maintaining each fund's organization; supervising relations with custodians, transfer and pricing agents, accountants, underwriters and other persons dealing with the fund; preparing all general shareholder communications and conducting shareholder relations; maintaining the fund's records and the registration of the fund's shares under federal securities laws and making necessary filings under state securities laws; developing management and shareholder services for the fund; and furnishing reports, evaluations and analyses on a variety of subjects to the Trustees. Services provided by affiliates of FMR will continue under the proposed contract described in Proposals 2 and 3.
Management-Related Expenses.In addition to the management fee payable to FMR and the fees payable to the transfer, dividend disbursing, and shareholder servicing agent and pricing and bookkeeping agent, and the costs associated with securities lending, the fund pays all of its expenses that are not assumed by those parties. The fund pays for the typesetting, printing, and mailing of its proxy materials to shareholders, legal expenses, and the fees of the custodian, auditor, and Independent Trustees. The fund's management contract further provides that the fund will pay for typesetting, printing, and mailing prospectuses, statements of additional information, notices, and reports to shareholders; however, under the terms of the fund's transfer agent agreement, the transfer agent bears these costs. Other expenses paid by the fund include interest, taxes, brokerage commissions, the fund's proportionate share of insurance premiums and Investment Company Institute dues, and the costs of registering shares under federal securities laws and making necessary filings under state securities laws. The fund is also liable for such non-recurring expenses as may arise, including costs of any litigation to which the fund may be a party, and any obligation it may have to indemnify its officers and Trustees with respect to litigation.
Management Fees. For the services of FMR under the management contract, the fund pays FMR a monthly management fee which has two components: a basic fee, which is the sum of a group fee rate and an individual fund fee rate, and a performance adjustment based on a comparison of the fund's performance to that of the S&P 500 Index.
The group fee rate is based on the monthly average net assets of all of the registered investment companies with which FMR has management contracts.

<R>The group fee rate is calculated on a cumulative basis pursuant to the graduated fee rate schedule shown above on the left. The schedule above on the right shows the effective annual group fee rate at various asset levels, which is the result of cumulatively applying the annualized rates on the left. For example, the effective annual fee rate at $953 billion of group net assets - the approximate level for July 31, 2005 - was0.2709%, which is the weighted average of the respective fee rates for each level of group net assets up to $953 billion.</R>
<R>The fund's individual fund fee rate is 0.30%. Based on the average group net assets of the funds advised by FMR for July 31, 2005, the fund's annual management fee rate was calculated to be 0.5709%. </R>
One-twelfth of the basic fee rate is applied to the fund's average net assets for themonth, giving a dollar amount which is the fee for that month.
Computing the Performance Adjustment.The basic fee for the fund is subject to upward or downward adjustment, depending upon whether, and to what extent, the fund's investment performance for the performance period exceeds, or is exceeded by, the record over the same period of the S&P 500 Index. The performance period consists of the most recent month plus the previous 35 months.
Each percentage point of difference, calculated to the nearest 0.01% (up to a maximum difference of ±10.00%), is multiplied by a performance adjustment rate of 0.02%. The maximum annualized performance adjustment rate is ±0.20% of the fund's average net assets over the performance period. The performance comparison is made at the end of each month. One twelfth (1/12) of this rate is then applied to the fund's average net assets over the performance period, giving a dollar amount which will be added to (or subtracted from) the basic fee.
The fund's performance is calculated based on change in net asset value (NAV). For purposes of calculating the performance adjustment, any dividends or capital gain distributions paid by the fund are treated as if reinvested in that fund's shares at the NAV as of the record date for payment. The record of the Current Index is based on change in value and is adjusted for any cash distributions from the companies whose securities compose the index.
Because the adjustment to the basic fee is based on the fund's performance compared to the investment record of the index, the controlling factor is not whether the fund's performance is up or down per se, but whether it is up or down more or less than the record of the Current Index. Moreover, the comparative investment performance of the fund is based solely on the relevant performance period without regard to the cumulative performance over a longer or shorter period of time.
<R>During the fiscal year ended July 31, 2005, the fund paid FMR management fees of $128,606,585. This fee was equivalent to 0.3950% of the average net assets of the fund. The downward performance adjustment amounted to $39,984,681 for the fund.</R>
FMR may, from time to time, voluntarily reimburse all or a portion of the fund's operating expenses (exclusive of interest, taxes, certain securities lending costs, brokerage commissions, and extraordinary expenses), which is subject to revision or discontinuance. FMR retains the ability to be repaid for these expense reimbursements in the amount that expenses fall below the limit prior to the end of the fiscal year.
Expense reimbursements by FMR will increase the fund's returns, and repayment of the reimbursement by the fund will lower its returns.
Distribution Agreement.The fund also has a distribution agreement with FDC, a Massachusetts corporation organized on July 18, 1960. FDC is a broker-dealer registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and is a member of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. The distribution agreement calls for FDC to use all reasonable efforts, consistent with its other business, to secure purchasers for shares of the fund, which are continuously offered at NAV per share. Promotional and administrative expenses in connection with the offer and sale of shares are paid by FMR.
FDC received no payments from the fund pursuant to a Distribution and Service Plan under Rule 12b-1. The Plan does not authorize payments by the fund other than those that are to be made to FMR under its management contract.
Transfer and Service Agent Agreement.The fund has entered into a transfer agent agreement with Fidelity Service Company, Inc. (FSC), an affiliate of FMR, which is located at 82 Devonshire Street, Boston, Massachusetts 02109. Under the terms of the agreements, FSC (or an agent, including an affiliate) performs transfer agency, dividend disbursing, and shareholder services for the fund.
Transfer agent fees and pricing and bookkeeping fees, including reimbursement for out-of-pocket expenses, paid to FSC by the fund for fiscal year ended July 31, 2005 amounted to $57,579,714.
FSC also received fees for administering the fund's securities lending program. Securities lending costs are based on the number and duration of individual securities loans. Securities lending costs for fiscal year ended July 31, 2005 were $9,123.

<R>On January 19, 2006, pursuant to authority granted under SEC staff interpretations of the 1940 Act, the Board of Trustees approved, on behalf of the fund, a new research agreement with FRAC. The addition of this contract does not affect the fees paid by the fund.</R>
<R>PORTFOLIO TRANSACTIONS FOR FIDELITY BLUE CHIP GROWTH FUND</R>
<R>All orders for the purchase or sale of portfolio securities are placed on behalf of the fund by FMR pursuant to authority contained in the management contract. If FMR grants investment management authority to a sub-adviser, that sub-adviser is authorized to purchase and sell portfolio securities pursuant to the sub-advisory agreement.</R>
<R>FMR may place trades with certain brokers with which it is under common control, including National Financial Services LLC (NFS), provided it determines that these affiliates' trade execution abilities and costs are comparable to those of non-affiliated, qualified brokerage firms. FMR does not allocate trades to NFS in exchange for brokerage and research products and services of the type sometimes known as "soft dollars." FMR trades with its affiliated brokers on an execution-only basis. Prior to February 6, 2004, certain trades executed through NFS were transacted with Archipelago ECN (Archipelago), an ECN in which a wholly-owned subsidiary of FMR Corp. had an equity ownership interest.</R>
<R>During the fiscal year ended July 31, 2005, the fund paid brokerage commissions of $237,588 to NFS. During the fiscal year ended July 31, 2005, this amounted to approximately 1.42% of the aggregate brokerage commissions paid by the fund to NFS.</R>
<R>The total amount of brokerage commissions paid by the fund to NFS during the fiscal year ended July 31, 2005 includes commissions paid on trades transacted with Archipelago, which were previously reported separately as commissions paid to Archipelago. As restated, the brokerage commission figures more accurately reflect that Archipelago was not directly compensated by the fund. All fund trades transacted with Archipelago were executed through NFS, and therefore, NFS received any commissions paid by the fund on these trades.</R>

STANDING COMMITTEES OF THE FUNDS' TRUSTEES
<R>Correspondence intended for each Independent Trustee may be sent to the attention of the individual Trustee or to the Board of Trustees at Fidelity Investments, P.O. Box 55235, Boston, Massachusetts 02205-5235. Correspondence intended for each Interested Trustee may be sent to the attention of the individual Trustee or to the Board of Trustees at Fidelity Investments, 82 Devonshire Street, Boston, Massachusetts, 02109. The current process for collecting and organizing shareholder communications requires that the Board of Trustees receive copies of all communications addressed to it. All communications addressed to the Board of Trustees or any individual Trustee are logged and sent to the Board or individual Trustee. The fund doesfunds do not hold annual meetings and therefore doesdo not have a policy with regard to Trustees' attendance at such meetings. However, as a matter of practice, at least one Trustee attends special meetings.</R>
<R>The Board of Trustees has established various committees to support the Independent Trustees in acting independently in pursuing the best interests of the Fidelity funds and their shareholders. The committees facilitate the timely and efficient consideration of all matters of importance to Independent Trustees, each fund, and fund shareholders and to facilitate compliance with legal and regulatory requirements. Currently, the Board of Trustees has 12 standing committees. The members of each committee are Independent Trustees.</R> In connection with implementing a two-Board structure, it is expected that the equity and high income Board will have a similar committee structure, except that the Board will not have the following two committees: Fixed-Income Contract and Fund Oversight: Fixed-Income and Asset Allocation. See Appendix H for the number of meetings each standing committee held during each fund's last fiscal year.
<R>The Operations Committee is composed of all of the Independent Trustees, with Dr. GatesMr. Lautenbach currently serving as Chair. The committee normally meets monthly (except August), or more frequently as called by the Chair, and serves as a forum for consideration of issues of importance to, or calling for particular determinations by, the Independent Trustees. The committee also considers matters involving potential conflicts of interest between the funds and FMR and its affiliates and reviews proposed contracts and the proposed continuation of contracts between the Fidelity funds and FMR and its affiliates, and annually reviews and makes recommendations regarding contracts with third parties unaffiliated with FMR, including insurance coverage and custody agreements. The committee also monitors additional issues including the nature, levels and quality of services provided to shareholders, significant litigation, and the voting of proxies of portfolio companies. The committee also has oversight of compliance issues not specifically within the scope of any other committee. The committee is also responsible for definitive action on all compliance matters involving the potential for significant reimbursement by FMR. During the fiscal year ended July 31, 2005,the committee held 12 meetings. During the fiscal year ended November 30, 2005,the committee held 12 meetings. </R>
<R>The Fair Value Oversight Committee is composed of all of the Independent Trustees, with Dr. GatesMr. Lautenbach currently serving as Chair. The committee normally meets quarterly, or more frequently as called by the Chair. The Fair Value Oversight Committee monitors and establishes policies concerning procedures and controls regarding the valuation of fund investments and their classification as liquid or illiquid and monitors matters of disclosure to the extent required to fulfill its statutory responsibilities. The committee provides oversight regarding the investment policies relating to, and Fidelity funds' investment in, non-traditional securities. The committee also reviews actions taken by FMR's Fair Value Committee. During the fiscal year ended July 31, 2005,the committee held four meetings. During the fiscal year ended November 30, 2005,the committee held four meetings.</R>
<R>The Board of Trustees has established three Fund Oversight Committees: the Equity I Committee (composed of Ms. Small (Chair) and Mr. Dirks), the Equity II Committee (composed of Messrs. LautenbachStavropoulos (Chair), Gamper, and Stavropoulos), the Fixed-Income, International, and Special Committee (composed of Mr. Dirks (Chair), Ms. Knowles, and Ms. Small)Lautenbach), and the SelectFixed-Income and Asset Allocation Committee (composed of Mr.Messrs. Wolfe (Chair), Gamper, and Keyes, Dr. Heilmeier and Mr. McCoy)Ms. Knowles). Each committee normally meets in conjunction with in-person meetings of the Board of Trustees, or more frequently as called by the Chair of the respective committee. Each committee develops an understanding of and reviews the investment objectives, policies, and practices of each fund under its oversight. Each committee also monitors investment performance, compliance by each relevant Fidelity fund with its investment policies and restrictions and reviews appropriate benchmarks, competitive universes, unusual or exceptional investment matters, the personnel and other resources devoted to the management of each fund and all other matters bearing on each fund's investment results. The Fixed-Income, International,TheFixed-Income and SpecialAsset Allocation Committee also receives reports required under Rule 2a-7 of the 1940 Act and has oversight of research bearing on credit quality, investment structures and other fixed-income issues, and of international research. The Select and Asset AllocationEquity I Committee has oversight of FMR's equity investment research. Each committee will review and recommend any required action to the Board in respect of specific funds, including new funds, changes in fundamental and non-fundamental investment policies and restrictions, partial or full closing to new investors, fund mergers, fund name changes, and liquidations of funds. The members of each committee may organize working groups to make recommendations concerning issues related to funds that are within the scope of the committee's review. These working groups report to the committee or to the Independent Trustees, or both, as appropriate. Each working group may request from FMR such information from FMR as may be appropriate to the working group's deliberations. Prior to July 2005,November 2007, the three Fund Oversight Committees were the Equity Committee; the Fixed-Income, International, and Special Committee was known as the Fixed-Income and International Committee,Committee; and the Select and Asset Allocation Committee was known as the Select and Special Committee. During the fiscal year ended July 31, 2005,the Equity Committee held 11 meetings, the Fixed-Income, International, and Special Committee held 11 meetings, and the Select and Asset Allocation Committee held nine meetings. During the fiscal year ended November 30, 2005,the Equity Committee held 10 meetings, the Fixed-Income, International, and Special Committee held 12 meetings, and the Select and Asset Allocation Committee held nine meetings. </R>
<R>The Board of Trustees has established two Fund Contract Committees: the Equity Contract Committee (composed of Messrs. LautenbachStavropoulos (Chair), Dirks, Gamper, Stavropoulos,Lautenbach, and Wolfe)Ms. Small) and the Fixed-Income Contract Committee (composed of Mr. DirksMessrs. Wolfe (Chair), Ms. Knowles,Gamper, and Keyes, Dr. Heilmeyer, and Ms. Small)Knowles). Each committee will ordinarily meet as needed to consider matters related to the renewal of fund investment advisory agreements. The committees will assist the Independent Trustees in their consideration of investment advisory agreements of each fund. Each committee receives information on and makes recommendations concerning the approval of investment advisory agreements between the Fidelity funds and FMR and its affiliates and any non-FMR affiliate that serves as a sub-adviser to a Fidelity fund (collectively, "investment advisers") and the annual review of these contracts. The Fixed-Income Contract Committee will beis responsible for investment advisory agreements of the fixed-income funds. The Equity Contract Committee will beis responsible for the investment advisory agreements of all other funds. With respect to each fund under its purview, each committee: requests and receives information on the nature, extent, and quality of services provided to the shareholders of the Fidelity funds by the investment advisers and their respective affiliates, fund performance, the investment performance of the investment adviser, and such other information as the committee determines to be reasonably necessary to evaluate the terms of the investment advisory agreements; considers the cost of the services to be provided and the profitability and other benefits that the investment advisers and their respective affiliates derive or will derive from their contractual arrangements with each of the funds (including tangible and intangible "fall-out benefits"); considers the extent to which economies of scale would be realized as the funds grow and whether fee levels reflect those economies of scale for the benefit of fund investors; considers methodologies for determining the extent to which the funds benefit from economies of scale and refinements to these methodologies; considers information comparing the services to be rendered and the amount to be paid under the funds' contracts with those under other investment advisory contracts entered into with FMR and its affiliates and other investment advisers, such as contracts with other registered investment companies or other types of clients; considers such other matters and information as may be necessary and appropriate to evaluate investment advisory agreements of the funds; and makes recommendations to the Board concerning the approval or renewal of investment advisory agreements. Each committee will consult with the other committees of the Board of Trustees, and in particular with the Audit Committee and the applicable Fund Oversight Committees, in carrying out its responsibilities. Each committee's responsibilities are guided by Sections 15(c) and 36(b) of the 1940 Act. While each committee consists solely of Independent Trustees, its meetings may, depending upon the subject matter, be attended by one or more senior members of FMR's management or representatives of a sub-adviser not affiliated with FMR. During the fiscal year ended July 31, 2005, the Equity Contract Committee held three meetings and the Fixed-Income Contract Committee held two meetings.During the fiscal year ended November 30, 2005, each Fund Contract Committee held three meetings.</R>

Recommendations, along with appropriate background material concerning the candidate that demonstrates his or her ability to serve as an Independent Trustee of the Fidelity funds, should be submitted to the Chair of the committee at the address maintained for communications with Independent Trustees. If the committee retains a search firm, the Chair will generally forward all such submissions to the search firm for evaluation.

The Governance and Nominating Committee may determine that a candidate who does not have the type of previous experience or knowledge referred to above should nevertheless be considered as a nominee if the Governance and Nominating Committee finds that the candidate has additional qualifications such that his or her qualifications, taken as a whole, demonstrate the same level of fitness to serve as an Independent Trustee.

Non-audit services provided by a fund audit firm for a Fund Service Provider that do not relate directly to the operations and financial reporting of a Fidelity fund (Non-Covered Service)but that are expected to exceed $50,000 are also subject to pre-approval by the Audit Committee.
All Covered Services, as well as Non-Covered Services that are expected to exceed $50,000, must be approved in advance of provision of the service either: (i) by formal resolution of the Audit Committee, or (ii) by oral or written approval of the service by the Chair of the Audit Committee (or if the Chair is unavailable, such other member of the Audit Committee as may be designated by the Chair to act in the Chair's absence). The approval contemplated by (ii) above is permitted where the Treasurer determines that action on such an engagement is necessary before the next meeting of the Audit Committee. Neither pre-approval nor advance notice of Non-Covered Service engagements for which fees are not expected to exceed $50,000 is required; such engagements are to be reported to the Audit Committee monthly.
TheEach trust's Audit Committee has considered Non-Covered Services that were not pre-approved that were provided by PwC and Deloitte Entities to Fund Service Providers to be compatible with maintaining the independence of PwC and Deloitte Entities in their audit of the funds, taking into account representations from PwC and Deloitte Entities, in accordance with ISB No.1, regarding their independence from the funds and their related entities.

An increased fee will result even though the performance of the Portfolio over some period of time shorter than the performance period has been behind that of the Index, and, conversely, a reduction in the fee will be made for a month even though the performance of the Portfolio over some period of time shorter than the performance period has been ahead of that of the Index. The Basic Fee and the Performance Adjustment will be computed as follows:
(a) Basic Fee Rate: The annual Basic Fee Rate shall be the sum of the Group Fee Rate and the Individual Fund Fee Rate calculated to the nearest millionth decimal place as follows:
(i) Group Fee Rate. The Group Fee Rate shall be based upon the monthly average of the net assets of the registered investment companies having Advisory and Service or Management Contracts with the Adviser (computed in the manner set forth in the fund's Declaration of Trust or other organizational document) determined as of the close of business on each business day throughout the month. The Group Fee Rate shall be determined on a cumulative basis pursuant to the following schedule:

(ii) Individual Fund Fee Rate. The Individual Fund Fee Rate shall be 0.30%.
(b) Basic Fee. One-twelfth of the Basic Fee Rate shall be applied to the average of the net assets of the Portfolio (computed in the manner set forth in the Fund's Declaration of Trust or other organizational document) determined as of the close of business on each business day throughout the month. The resulting dollar amount comprises the Basic Fee.
(c) Performance Adjustment Rate:Except as otherwise provided in sub-paragraph (e) of this paragraph 3,[T]the Performance Adjustment Rate is 0.02% for each percentage point (the performance of the Portfolio and the Index each being calculated to the nearest .01%) that the Portfolio's investment performance for the performance period was better or worse than the record of the Index as then constituted. The maximum performance adjustment rate is 0.20%.
The performance period will commence with the first day of the first full month following the Portfolio's commencement of operations. During the first eleven months of the performance period for the Portfolio, there will be no performance adjustment. Starting with the twelfth month of the performance period, the performance adjustment will take effect. Following the twelfth month a new month will be added to the performance period until the performance period equals 36 months. Thereafter the performance period will consist of the current month plus the previous 35 months.
The Portfolio's investment performance will be measured by comparing (i) the opening net asset value of one share of the Portfolio on the first business day of the performance period with (ii) the closing net asset value of one share of the Portfolio as of the last business day of such period. In computing the investment performance of the Portfolio and the investment record of the Index, distributions of realized capital gains, the value of capital gains taxes per share paid or payable on undistributed realized long-term capital gains accumulated to the end of such period and dividends paid out of investment income on the part of the Portfolio, and all cash distributions of the securities included in the Index, will be treated as reinvested in accordance with Rule 205-1 or any other applicable rules under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as the same from time to time may be amended.
(d) Performance Adjustment. One-twelfth of the annual Performance Adjustment Rate will be applied to the average of the net assets of the Portfolio (computed in the manner set forth in the Fund's Declaration of Trust or other organizational document) determined as of the close of business on each business day throughout the month and the performance period.
(e) The Index shall be the Russell 1000 Growth Index. Subject to the requirementsmeaning of the Investment Company Act of 19401940.
The Governance and Nominating Committee may determine that a candidate who does not have the type of previous experience or knowledge referred to above should nevertheless be considered as a nominee if the Governance and Nominating Committee finds that the candidate has additional qualifications such that his or her qualifications, taken as a whole, demonstrate the same level of fitness to serve as an Independent Trustee.

Please read the enclosed materials and cast your vote on the proxy card(s).Please vote your shares promptly. Your vote is extremely important, no matter how large or small your holdings may be.
All of the proposals have been carefully reviewed by the Board of Trustees. The Trustees, most of whom are not affiliated with Fidelity, are responsible for protecting your interests as a shareholder. The Trustees believe these proposals are in the best interests of shareholders. They recommend that you votefor each proposal.
The following Q&A is provided to assist you in understanding the proposals. Each of the proposals is described in greater detail in the enclosed proxy statement.

Sincerely,
Edward C. Johnson 3d
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
Important information to help you understand and vote on the proposals
Please read the full text of the proxy statement. Below is a brief overview of the proposals to be voted upon. Your vote is important. We appreciate you placing your trust in Fidelity and look forward to helping you achieve your financial goals.
What proposals am I being asked to vote on?
You may be asked to vote on the following proposals:
1. To elect a Board of Trustees.
2. To approve a change in the performance adjustment index for Fidelity® Blue Chip Growth Fund.
3. To authorize the Trustees to change the performance adjustment index for Fidelity Blue Chip Growth Fund in the future without a shareholder vote.
1. To elect a Board of Trustees.
What role does the Board play?
The Trustees serve as the fund shareholders' representatives. Members of the Board are fiduciaries and have an obligation to serve the best interests of shareholders, including approving policy changes. In addition, the Trustees review fund performance, oversee fund activities, and review contractual arrangements with companies that provide services to the fund.
What is the affiliation of the Board and Fidelity?
The purpose of the Board is to ensure that the shareholders' best interests are protected in the operation of a mutual fund. The Board consists of both "interested" trustees and "Independent" trustees. Trustees are determined to be "interested" by virtue of, among other things, their affiliation with the funds, trust, or various other entities under common control with Fidelity Management & Research Co. (FMR). Interested Trustees are compensated by FMR. Independent Trustees have no affiliation with FMR and are compensated by each individual fund. If approved by shareholders, the Board will consist of 13 individuals - three interested trustees and ten Independent trustees.
Are Board members paid?
Each Independent Trustee receives a fee for his or her service on the Board. Under a deferred compensation plan adopted in September 1995 and amended in November 1996 and January 2000 (the Plan), Independent Trustees must defer receipt of a portion of, and may elect to defer receipt of an additional portion of, their annual fees. You can find the compensation table, which details these fees, in the proxy statement.
Where is the compensation deferred to?
Amounts deferred under the Plan are treated as though equivalent dollar amounts had been invested in shares of a cross-section of Fidelity funds including funds in each major investment discipline and representing a majority of Fidelity's assets under management (the Reference Funds). The amounts ultimately received by the Independent Trustees under the Plan will be directly linked to the performance of the Referenced Funds. This aligns the interest of the Trustees with the interests of the shareholders at-large.
2. To approve a change in the performance adjustment index for Fidelity Blue Chip Growth Fund.
Why is Fidelity Blue Chip Growth Fund proposing to change its performance adjustment index?
The proposed modification to the management contract would prospectively change the index used to calculate the fund's performance adjustment from the Standard & Poor'sSM 500 Index (the Current Index) to the Russell 1000® Growth Index (the Proposed Index). The performance adjustment is one aspect of the management fee that FMR receives from the fund for managing its investments and business affairs. If the proposal is approved, the fund would move from a benchmark designed as a broad measure of the performance of the overall U.S. stock market (including both value and growth stocks) to one with a narrower focus on growth stocks of large-sized companies. FMR believes the Proposed Index conforms more closely to the investment strategy of the fund and better represents the fund's investment universe than the broader universe measured by the Current Index. The proposed change in the performance adjustment index will not directly affect the fund's investment policies. Please refer to the proxy statement for more details
3. To authorize the Trustees to change the performance adjustment index for Fidelity Blue Chip Growth Fund in the future without a shareholder vote.
Why is Fidelity Blue Chip Growth Fund proposing to authorize the Trustees to change its performance adjustment index in the future without a shareholder vote?
The proposed modification to the management contract would allow the Trustees to designate an alternative appropriate index for purposes of calculating the performance adjustment for the fund without a shareholder vote,provided the Investment Company Act of 1940 and the Investment Advisers Act of 1940(the Acts)permit them to do so. Currently, the Acts do not permit the Board to make such a change, and SEC approval would be required to do so. However, if future changes to the Acts or SEC positions allow this flexibility, the Board would be permitted to change the index without a shareholder vote. For example, if the index provider discontinued the performance adjustment index, the amended management contract would give the Board the ability to change the fund's performance adjustment index without the delay and expense of having to first conduct a proxy solicitation.
Has the funds' Board of Trustees approved each proposal?
Yes. The Board of Trustees has unanimously approved all of the proposals and recommends that you vote to approve them.
Who is D.F. King & Co., Inc.?
D.F. King is a third party proxy vendor that FMR hires to call out to shareholders and record proxy votes. In order to hold proxy meetings, quorum must be reached - which is a majority of the shares entitled to vote in person or by proxy at the shareholder meeting. If quorum is not attained, the meeting must adjourn to a future date. Fidelity attempts to reach shareholders via multiple mailings to remind them to cast their vote. As the meeting approaches, phone calls may be made to clients who have not yet voted their shares so that the shareholder meeting does not have to be postponed.
Voting your shares immediately will help minimize the additional solicitation expenses and prevent the need to make a call to you to solicit your vote.
How many votes am I entitled to cast?
As a shareholder, you are entitled to one vote for each dollar of net asset value you own of each of the funds on the record date. The record date is March 20, 2006.
How do I vote my shares?
You can vote your shares by completing and signing the enclosed proxy card(s) and mailing it in the enclosed postage-paid envelope. You may also vote by touch-tone telephone by calling the toll-free number printed on your proxy card(s) and following the recorded instructions. In addition, you may also vote through the internet by visitingwww.proxyweb.com/proxyand following the on-line instructions. If you need any assistance, or have any questions regarding the proposals or how to vote your shares, please call Fidelity at 1-800-544-3198.
How do I sign the proxy card?
Individual Accounts: Shareholders should sign exactly as their names appear on the account registration shown on the card.
Joint Accounts: Either owner may sign, but the name of the person signing should conform exactly to a name shown in the registration.
All Other Accounts: The person signing must indicate his or her capacity. For example, a trustee for a trust or other entity should sign, "Ann B. Collins, Trustee."
