Important information to help you understand and vote on the proposalsproposal

Please read the full text of the proxy statement. Below isWe’ve provided a brief overview of the proposalsproposal to be voted upon.upon below. 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?

YouAs more fully described in the attached proxy statement, shareholders are being asked to vote onreclassify the following proposals:diversification status of the fund from diversified to non-diversified by eliminating the related fundamental policy.

1.To elect a Board of Trustees.

2.For shareholders of certain funds, to convert a fundamental investment policy tonon-fundamental.

1. To elect aHas the fund’s Board of Trustees.Trustees approved the proposal?

Yes. The Board of Trustees has carefully reviewed and approved modifying the policies for the fund. The Board of Trustees unanimously recommends that you vote in favor of reclassifying the diversification status of the fund from diversified to non-diversified by eliminating the related fundamental policy by approving the fund’s proposal.

Why am I being asked to approve reclassifying the diversification status of the fund from diversified to non-diversified by eliminating the related fundamental policy?

The fund currently has a fundamental policy requiring the fund to operate as a diversified fund. As a result, the fund is limited in its ownership of securities of any single issuer. The diversification status forces the portfolio to be underweight the benchmark’s top holdings, meaning the fund’s portfolio manager cannot choose to equal or overweight positions relative to its benchmark. This limitation can ultimately diminish the opportunity to outperform the benchmark on a risk-return basis. Shareholder approval of this proposal would allow the fund to operate as a non-diversified fund, providing portfolio managers with additional investment flexibility. The Board, including the Independent Trustees, has approved, and recommends that shareholders approve, the proposed change to the fund’s diversification policy.

How will reclassifying the diversification status of the fund from diversified to non-diversified by eliminating the related fundamental policy impact the day-to-day management of the fund?

While the proposed change to the fund’s diversification policy would provide more flexibility for the fund’s investment adviser, the investment objective and principal investment strategies will remain unchanged.

What if shareholders do not approve the proposal to reclassify the diversification status of the fund from diversified to non-diversified by eliminating the related fundamental policy?

If shareholders do not approve this proposal, then the fund will retain the current fundamental diversification investment policy.


The Board of Trustees has unanimously approved the proposal and recommends that you vote to approve it.

What if there are not enough votes to reach quorum by the scheduled shareholder meeting date or if the policy modifications are not approved?

To facilitate receiving a sufficient number of votes, we may need to take further action. Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc., a proxy solicitation firm, or Fidelity, may contact you by mail or telephone. Therefore, we encourage shareholders to vote as soon as they receive the enclosed proxy materials to avoid additional mailings or telephone calls, as well as increased expenses to the fund.

What role does the Board play?

The Trustees serve as representatives of the funds’ shareholders.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.shareholders. In addition, the Trustees review fund performance, oversee fund activities, and review contractual arrangements with companies that provide services to the funds.fund.

The Board of Trustees has unanimously approved the proposal and recommends that you vote to approve it.

2. For shareholders of certain funds, to convert a fundamental investment policy tonon-fundamental.

Why am I being asked to convert a fundamental investment policy tonon-fundamental?

When a policy is fundamental, it requires both board and shareholder approval to change. Anon-fundamental policy can be changed by board vote alone.

When a policy can only be changed with shareholder approval, it is difficult and costly for a fund to update and revise its policy, if needed, when market conditions change. Converting tonon-fundamental provides greater flexibility to react to market changes in a timely and cost-effective manner.

Will the change from fundamental tonon-fundamental change how any of the funds are managed?

No, there are no plans to change the way any fund is currently managed.

The Board of Trustees has unanimously approved these proposals and recommends that you vote to approve them.

Appendix F shows the composition of the Board of Trustees of each trust and the length of service of each Trustee and member of the Advisory Board. Except for Bettina Doulton and Robert A. Lawrence, all nominees named below are currently Trustees or Advisory Board Members of the trusts and have served in that capacity continuously since originally elected or appointed. Certain nominees were previously elected by shareholders to serve as Trustees of certain trusts, while other nominees were initially appointed by the Trustees and have not yet been elected by shareholders of all trusts. With respect to the nominees not previously elected by shareholders of one or more trusts, the trusts’ Governance and Nominating Committee identified Donald F. Donahue, Garnett A.

A nominee shall be elected immediately upon shareholder approval, except that for Variable Insurance Products Fund, the election of Ms. Doulton will be effective on or before January 1, 2021.

Accordingly, Ms. Doulton’s election will be effective once there is a vacancy on the board, which is currently expected to be January 1, 2021.

Except for Messrs. Lawrence and Wiley and Mses. Doulton, Fuller, Kampling, and Tomasky, each of the nominees currently oversees 301 Fidelity funds. Mr. Wiley currently oversees 199 Fidelity funds.

The investment policy for each fund set forth in Appendix I (Policy) is “fundamental,” meaning that it may only be changed by a vote of shareholdersSection 5(b)(1) of the fund. Each such Policy sets forth1940 Act requires funds to be classified as either diversified or non-diversified, and a fund’s status as diversified is considered a fundamental policy. Diversified funds are subject to the fund’sabove restrictions and non-diversified funds are not. As a result, a non-diversified fund has increased flexibility to invest a greater percentage of its assets in the securities of fewer issuers. As a result, changes in the market value of a single investment objective and,could cause greater fluctuations in certain cases, related policy language. The Board of Trustees recommends thatshare price than would occur in a more diversified fund.

Under the 1940 Act, a non-diversified fund is permitted to operate as a diversified fund, but a diversified fund cannot become non-diversified unless shareholders approve the proposal to make each Policynon-fundamental.change.

Because eachThe primary benchmark of the fund is the Russell 3000 Growth Index.

The fund’s Policy can only be changed with shareholder approval, it can be difficult, expensiveportfolio managers evaluate and time consuming for a fund to revise its Policy in response to changesconsider all of the holdings in the market. If approved, this change will allowfund’s benchmark index as potential investment opportunities. Over the Board of Trustees to change each fund’s Policy without the delay and expense of a shareholder vote. Ifpast several years, certain stocks contained in the future,Russell 3000 Growth Index have experienced an increase in their market capitalizations. Some of the largest increases have been observed in what are generally considered to be technology stocks. As a result, large-cap growth indices and other indices with higher weightings to technology stocks have become much more concentrated at the individual stock level. This level of index concentration coupled with the limitations placed on diversified funds can, at times, constrain a portfolio manager’s ability to fully achieve target exposures to individual securities.

Although increased levels of concentration have fluctuated in this index in the past, this market concentration may persist.


Due to the 1940 Act diversification requirement, the fund must underweight at least some of these holdings relative to their weights in the index even if the Board of Trustees approves a changeportfolio managers find them to a fund’s Policy, shareholders would receive notice of such change andbe attractive investment opportunities. The diversification status forces the portfolios to be underweight the benchmark’s top holdings, meaning the fund’s prospectus would be updated accordingly. portfolio manager cannot choose to equal or overweight positions relative to its benchmark. This limitation can ultimately diminish the opportunity to outperform the benchmark on a risk-return basis. The investment adviser believes reclassifying the fund as non-diversified is in the best interests of the fund and its shareholders because the non-diversified status will provide portfolio managers with additional investment flexibility.

If shareholders do not approve this proposal, is approved, shareholdersthen the fund will not haveretain the right to vote on any future change to a fund’s Policy. Converting each Policy tonon-fundamental would bring the funds in line with industry practice as well as with the practices of certain other Fidelity funds and could potentially avoid entirely, or reduce, future proxy costs and provide greater flexibility for evolution over time. There is no present intention to change the way in which any fund is currently managedcurrent fundamental diversification investment policy.

Even if the proposal is approved.approved, the fund would continue to remain subject to diversification tests under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code that apply to regulated investment companies. To qualify, among other requirements, the fund must limit its investment so that, at the close of each quarter of the taxable year, (1) not more than 25% of the fund’s total assets will be invested in the securities of a single issuer, and (2) with respect to 50% of its total assets, not more than 5% will be invested in the securities of a single issuer and the fund will not own more than 10% of the outstanding voting securities of a single issuer.

BOARD STRUCTURE AND OVERSIGHT FUNCTION AND

STANDING COMMITTEES OF THE FUNDS’ TRUSTEES

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, Massachusetts02205-5235. 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, 245 Summer Street, Boston, Massachusetts 02210. 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 funds do not hold annual meetings and therefore do 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.

Mr. Curvey is an interested person and currently serves as Chairman. The Trustees have determined that an interested Chairman is appropriate and benefits shareholders because an interested Chairman has a personal and professional stake in the quality and continuity of services provided to the funds. Independent Trustees exercise their informed business judgment to appoint an individual of their choosing to serve as Chairman, regardless of whether the Trustee happens to be independent or a member of management. The Independent Trustees have determined that they can act independently and effectively without having an Independent Trustee serve as Chairman and that a key structural component for assuring that they are in a position to do so is for the Independent Trustees to constitute a substantial majority for the Board. The Independent Trustees also regularly meet in executive session. Messrs. Lautenbach and Thomas serve as Co-Lead Independent Trustees and as such each (i) acts as a liaison between the Independent Trustees and management with respect to matters important to the Independent Trustees and (ii) with management prepares agendas for Board meetings.

Fidelity® funds are overseen by different Boards of Trustees. The funds’ Board oversees Fidelity’s high income and certain equity funds, and other Boards oversee Fidelity’s investment-grade bond, money market, asset allocation, and other equity funds. The asset allocation funds may invest in Fidelity® funds overseen by the funds’ Board. The use of separate Boards, each with its own committee structure, allows the Trustees of each group of Fidelity® funds to focus on the unique issues of the funds they oversee, including common research, investment, and operational issues. On occasion, the separate Boards establish joint committees to address issues of overlapping consequences for the Fidelity funds overseen by each Board.

18


The Trustees operate using a system of committees to facilitate the timely and efficient consideration of all matters of importance to the Trustees, the funds, and fund shareholders and to facilitate compliance with legal and regulatory requirements and oversight of the funds’ activities and associated risks. The Board, acting through its committees, has charged FMR and its affiliates with (i) identifying events or circumstances the occurrence of which could have demonstrably adverse effects on the funds’ business and/or reputation; (ii) implementing processes and controls to lessen the possibility that such events or circumstances occur or to mitigate the effects of such events or circumstances if they do occur; and (iii) creating and maintaining a system designed to evaluate continuously business and market conditions in order to facilitate the identification and implementation processes described in (i) and (ii) above. Because theday-to-day operations and activities of the funds are carried out by or through FMR, its affiliates, and other service providers, the funds’ exposure to risks is mitigated but not eliminated by the processes overseen by the Trustees. While each of the Board’s committees has responsibility for overseeing different aspects of the funds’ activities, oversight is exercised primarily through the Operations, Audit, and Compliance Committees. Appropriate personnel, including but not limited to the funds’ Chief Compliance Officer (CCO), the adviser’s internal auditor, the independent accountants, the funds’ Treasurer and portfolio management personnel, make periodic reports to the Board’s committees, as appropriate, including an annual review of Fidelity’s risk management program for the Fidelity® funds.

The Board of Trustees has established various committees to support the Independent Trustees in acting independently in pursuing the best interests of the funds and their shareholders. Currently, the Board of Trustees has 11 standing committees. The members of each committee are Independent Trustees. Advisory Board Members may be invited to attend meetings of the committees.

The Operations Committee is composed of all of the Independent Trustees, with Mr. Lautenbach currently serving as Chair and Mr. Thomas serving as Vice Chair. Mr. Wiley also serves as Vice Chair (for trusts for which he serves as trustee). The committee 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 funds and FMR and its affiliates, and 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 and significant litigation. 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 December 31, 2019, the committee held 12 meetings.

19


The Fair Value Oversight Committee is composed of Messrs. Donahue (Chair), Dirks, Mauriello, and Thomas, and Ms. Small. The Fair Value Oversight Committee monitors and establishes policies concerning procedures and controls regarding the valuation of fund investments and monitors matters of disclosure to the extent required to fulfill its statutory responsibilities. The committee also reviews actions taken by FMR’s Fair Value Committee. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019, the committee held five meetings.

The Board of Trustees has established two Fund Oversight Committees: the Equity I Committee (composed of Ms. Small (Chair), and Messrs. Dirks, Donahue, Lacy, and Wiley (for trusts for which he serves as trustee)) and the Equity II Committee (composed of Messrs. Thomas (Chair), Lautenbach, Mauriello, and Smith). 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 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. Each committee will review and recommend any required action to the Board in respect of specific funds, including new funds, changes in fundamental andnon-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. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019, the Equity I Committee held seven meetings and the Equity II Committee held seven meetings.

The Shareholder, Distribution and Brokerage Committee is composed of Messrs. Dirks (Chair), Thomas, and Wiley (for trusts for which he serves as trustee), and Ms. Small. Regarding shareholder services, the committee considers the structure and amount of the funds’ transfer agency fees and fees, including direct fees to investors (other than sales loads), such as bookkeeping and custodial fees, and the nature and quality of services rendered by FMR and its affiliates or third parties (such as custodians) in consideration of these fees. The committee also considers othernon-investment management services rendered to the funds by FMR and its affiliates, including pricing and bookkeeping services. The committee monitors and recommends policies concerning the securities transactions of the funds, including brokerage. The committee periodically reviews the policies and practices with respect to efforts to achieve best execution, commissions paid to firms supplying research and brokerage services or paying fund expenses, and policies and procedures designed to assure that any allocation of portfolio transactions is not influenced by the sale of fund shares. The committee also monitors brokerage and other similar relationships between the funds and firms affiliated with FMR that participate in the execution of securities transactions. Regarding the distribution of fund shares, the committee considers issues bearing on

20


the various distribution channels employed by the funds, including issues regardingRule 18f-3 plans and related consideration of classes of shares, sales load structures (including breakpoints), load waivers, selling concessions and service charges paid to intermediaries, Rule12b-1 plans, contingent deferred sales charges, and finder’s fees, and other means by which intermediaries are compensated for selling fund shares or providing shareholder servicing, including revenue sharing. The committee also considers issues bearing on the preparation and use of advertisements and sales literature for the funds, policies and procedures regarding frequent purchase of fund shares, and selective disclosure of portfolio holdings. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019, the committee held six meetings.

The Audit Committee is composed of Messrs. Mauriello (Chair), Donahue, Lacy, and Wiley (for trusts for which he serves as trustee). All committee members must be able to read and understand fundamental financial statements, including a company’s balance sheet, income statement, and cash flow statement. At least one committee member will be an “audit committee financial expert” as defined by the SEC. The committee will have at least one committee member in common with the Compliance Committee. The committee meets separately at least annually with the funds’ Treasurer, with the funds’ Chief Financial Officer, with personnel responsible for the internal audit function of FMR LLC, and with the funds’ outside auditors. The committee has direct responsibility for the appointment, compensation, and oversight of the work of the outside auditors employed by the funds. The committee assists the Trustees in overseeing and monitoring: (i) the systems of internal accounting and financial controls of the funds and the funds’ service providers, (to the extent such controls impact the funds’ financial statements); (ii) the funds’ auditors and the annual audits of the funds’ financial statements; (iii) the financial reporting processes of the funds; (iv) whistleblower reports; and (v) the accounting policies and disclosures of the funds. The committee considers and acts upon (i) the provision by any outside auditor of anynon-audit services for any fund, and (ii) the provision by any outside auditor of certainnon-audit services to fund service providers and their affiliates to the extent that such approval (in the case of this clause (ii)) is required under applicable regulations of the SEC. In furtherance of the foregoing, the committee has adopted (and may from time to time amend or supplement) and provides oversight of policies and procedures fornon-audit engagements by outside auditors of the funds. The committee is responsible for approving all audit engagement fees and terms for the funds and for resolving disagreements between a fund and any outside auditor regarding any fund’s financial reporting. Auditors of the funds report directly to the committee. The committee will obtain assurance of independence and objectivity from the outside auditors, including a formal written statement delineating all relationships between the auditor and the funds and any service providers consistent with the rules of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board. It oversees and receives reports on the funds’ service providers’ internal controls and reviews the adequacy and effectiveness of the service providers’ accounting and financial controls, including: (i) any significant deficiencies or material weaknesses in the design or operation of internal controls over financial reporting that are reasonably likely to adversely affect the funds’ ability to record, process, summarize, and report financial data; (ii) any change in the fund’s

21


internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the fund’s internal control over financial reporting; and (iii) any fraud, whether material or not, that involves management or other employees who have a significant role in the funds’ or service providers internal controls over financial reporting. The committee will also review any correspondence with regulators or governmental agencies or published reports that raise material issues regarding the funds’ financial statements or accounting policies. These matters may also be reviewed by the Compliance Committee or the Operations Committee. The Chair of the Audit Committee will coordinate with the Chairs of other committees, as appropriate. The committee reviews at least annually a report from each outside auditor describing any material issues raised by the most recent internal quality control, peer review, or Public Company Accounting Oversight Board examination of the auditing firm and any material issues raised by any inquiry or investigation by governmental or professional authorities of the auditing firm and in each case any steps taken to deal with such issues. The committee will oversee and receive reports on the funds’ financial reporting process, will discuss with FMR , the funds’ Treasurer, outside auditors and, if appropriate, internal audit personnel of FMR LLC, their qualitative judgments about the appropriateness and acceptability of accounting principles and financial disclosure practices used or proposed for adoption by the funds. The committee will review with FMR, the funds’ Treasurer, outside auditor, and internal audit personnel of FMR LLC and, as appropriate, legal counsel the results of audits of the funds’ financial statements. The committee will review periodically the funds’ major internal controls exposures and the steps that have been taken to monitor and control such exposures. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019, the committee held four meetings.

The Governance and Nominating Committee is composed of Messrs. Lautenbach (Chair), Dirks, Thomas, and Wiley (for trusts for which he serves as trustee). With respect to fund governance and board administration matters, the committee periodically reviews procedures of the Board of Trustees and its committees (including committee charters) and periodically reviews compensation of Independent Trustees. The committee monitors corporate governance matters and makes recommendations to the Board of Trustees on the frequency and structure of the Board of Trustee meetings and on any other aspect of Board procedures. It acts as the administrative committee under the retirement plan for Independent Trustees who retired prior to December 30, 1996 and under the fee deferral plan for Independent Trustees. It reviews the performance of legal counsel employed by the funds and the Independent Trustees. On behalf of the Independent Trustees, the committee will make such findings and determinations as to the independence of counsel for the Independent Trustees as may be necessary or appropriate under applicable regulations or otherwise.

The committee monitors compliance with, acts as the administrator of, and makes determinations in respect of, the provisions of the code of ethics and any supplemental policies regarding personal securities transactions applicable to the Independent Trustees. The committee monitors the functioning of each Board committee

22


and makes recommendations for any changes, including the creation or elimination of standing or ad hoc Board committees. The committee monitors regulatory and other developments to determine whether to recommend modifications to the committee’s responsibilities or other Trustee policies and procedures in light of rule changes, reports concerning “best practices” in corporate governance, and other developments in mutual fund governance. The committee reports regularly to the Independent Trustees with respect to these activities. The committee recommends that the Board establish such special or ad hoc Board committees as may be desirable or necessary from time to time in order to address ethical, legal, or other matters that may arise. The committee also oversees the annual self-evaluation of the Board of Trustees and of each committee and establishes procedures to allow it to exercise this oversight function. In conducting this oversight, the committee shall address all matters that it considers relevant to the performance of the Board of Trustees and shall report the results of its evaluation to the Board of Trustees, including any recommended amendments to the principles of governance, and any recommended changes to the funds’ or the Board of Trustees’ policies, procedures, and structures. The committee reviews periodically the size and composition of the Board of Trustees as a whole and recommends, if necessary, measures to be taken so that the Board of Trustees reflects the appropriate balance of knowledge, experience, skills, expertise, and diversity required for the Board as a whole and contains at least the minimum number of Independent Trustees required by law. The committee makes nominations for the election or appointment of Independent Trustees andnon-management Members of any Advisory Board, and for membership on committees. The committee shall have authority to retain and terminate any third-party advisers, including authority to approve fees and other retention terms. Such advisers may include search firms to identify Independent Trustee candidates and board compensation consultants. The committee may conduct or authorize investigations into or studies of matters within the committee’s scope of responsibilities, and may retain, at the funds’ expense, such independent counsel or other advisers as it deems necessary. The committee will consider Independent Trustee candidates to the Board of Trustees recommended by shareholders based upon the criteria applied to candidates presented to the committee by a search firm or other source. Recommendations, along with appropriate background material concerning the candidate that demonstrates his or her ability to serve as an Independent Trustee of the 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. With respect to the criteria for selecting Independent Trustees, it is expected that all candidates will possess the following minimum qualifications: (i) unquestioned personal integrity; (ii) not an interested person of the funds within the meaning of the 1940 Act; (iii) does not have a material relationship (e.g., commercial, banking, consulting, legal, or accounting) with FMR, anysub-adviser, or their affiliates that could create an appearance of lack of independence in respect of the funds; (iv) has the disposition to act independently in respect of FMR and its affiliates and others in order to protect the interests of the funds and all shareholders; (v) ability to attend regularly scheduled meetings during the year; (vi) demonstrates sound business judgment gained through broad experience in significant positions where the

23


candidate has dealt with management, technical, financial, or regulatory issues; (vii) sufficient financial or accounting knowledge to add value in the complex financial environment of the funds; (viii) experience on corporate or other institutional oversight bodies having similar responsibilities, but which board memberships or other relationships could not result in business or regulatory conflicts with the funds; and (ix) capacity for the hard work and attention to detail that is required to be an effective Independent Trustee in light of the funds’ complex regulatory, operational, and marketing setting. 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. A current copy of the Governance and Nominating Committee Charter is attached as Exhibit 1. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019, the committee held seven meetings.

24


procedures and controls designed to ensure that the proxy voting policies are implemented in accordance with their terms.

INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRMS

The firm of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (PwC) or Deloitte & Touche LLP (Deloitte), the member firms of Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu, and their respective affiliates (collectively, Deloitte Entities), has been selected as the independent registered public accounting firm for each fund, as indicated in Appendix A. PwC and Deloitte Entities, in accordance with Public Company Accounting Oversight Board rules, have confirmed to the Audit Committee of each trust, as applicable, that they are the independent registered public accounting firms with respect to the funds.

25


The independent registered public accounting firms audit annual financial statements for the funds and provide other audit-related,non-audit, andtax-related services to the funds. Representatives of PwC and Deloitte Entities are not expected to be present at the Meeting, but have been given the opportunity to make a statement if they so desire and will be available should any matter arise requiring their presence.

Each trust’s Audit Committee mustpre-approve all audit andnon-audit services provided by a fund’s independent registered public accounting firm relating to the operations or financial reporting of the funds. Prior to the commencement of any audit ornon-audit services to a fund, the Audit Committee reviews the services to determine whether they are appropriate and permissible under applicable law.

Each trust’s Audit Committee has adopted policies and procedures to, among other purposes, provide a framework for the Committee’s consideration ofnon-audit services by the audit firms that audit the Fidelity funds. The policies and procedures require that anynon-audit service provided by a fund audit firm to a Fidelity fund and anynon-audit service provided by a fund auditor to FMR and entities controlling, controlled by, or under common control with FMR (not including anysub-adviser whose role is primarily portfolio management and is subcontracted with or overseen by another investment adviser) that provide ongoing services to the funds (Fund Service Providers) that relates directly to the operations and financial reporting of a Fidelity fund (Covered Service) are subject to approval by the Audit Committee before such service is provided. All Covered Services 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.

Non-audit services provided by a fund audit firm to a Fund Service Provider that do not relate directly to the operations and financial reporting of a Fidelity fund(Non-Covered Service) are reported to the Audit Committee on a periodic basis.

Each trust’s Audit Committee has considerednon-audit services that were notpre-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 Public Company Accounting Oversight Board rules, regarding their independence from the funds and their related entities and FMR’s review of the appropriateness and permissibility under applicable law of suchnon-audit services prior to their provision to the Fund Service Providers.

Fees and Services

Appendix K presents fees billed by PwC and Deloitte Entities that were required to be approved by each trust’s Audit Committee for services that relate directly to the operations and financial reporting of the funds and that are rendered on behalf of Fund Service Providers.

Appendix L presents the aggregatenon-audit fees billed by PwC and Deloitte Entities for services rendered to the funds and any Fund Service Provider for each of the last two fiscal years of the funds.

There were nonon-audit services approved or required to be approved by the trusts’ Audit Committee pursuant to the de minimis exception during the funds’ last two fiscal years relating to services provided to (i) the funds or (ii) any Fund Service Provider that relate directly to the operations and financial reporting of the funds.

D. Chair; Functions of the Chair

An Independent Trustee will act as Chair of the Committee (the “Chair”). The Chair will have the following responsibilities:

(1) The Chair will preside at all meetings of the Committee. The Vice Chair, if any, or in such Vice Chair’s absence, any designated acting or other lead Independent Trustee alternate will preside in the Committee Chair’s absence.

(2) The Chair will be responsible for reviewing and providing direction on meeting agendas.

(3) The Chair will coordinate with the chairs of other committees as appropriate.

(4) At meetings of the Operations Committee or the Board of Trustees the Chair will report on the Committee’s recommendations on applicable resolutions and on any important actions by or discussions at the Committee.

(5) The Chair will coordinate with counsel for the Funds and/or counsel to the Independent Trustees on matters requiring legal advice.

(6) The Chair may make temporary assignments of members and chairs of other Board Committees to fill vacancies or to provide for absences.

E. Meetings and Procedures of the Committee

(1) The Committee will normally meet each time the full Board meets, or more frequently as called by the Chair. The Chair or a majority of the members of the Committee may call a special meeting of the Committee.

(2) The Committee may determine its own rules of procedure, which shall be consistent with the Declaration of Trust or other charter document of the applicable Fund, the Bylaws of such Fund and this Charter.

(3) A majority of the members of the Committee, present in person or by means of a conference telephone or other communications equipment by means of which all persons participating in the meeting can communicate with each other, shall constitute a quorum. The Committee may take action by written consent if at least the number of members required for approval at a meeting consent to the action in writing and the written consents are filed with the records of meetings of the Committee, unless otherwise required by applicable law.

(4) The Committee may request that any trustees, officers or employees of a Fund, or other persons whose advice and counsel are sought by the Committee, attend any meeting of the Committee to provide such information as the Committee requests.

Ex-2


(b) Periodically review Independent Trustee compensation and recommend any changes deemed by the Committee to be appropriate.

(c) Make recommendations on the frequency and structure of Board of Trustees meetings.

(d) Make recommendations concerning any other aspect of the procedures of the Board that the Committee considers warranted.

(e) Make recommendations as to the size and members, the chair, vice chair if any, alternate presiding members and alternate members of each standing or ad hoc Board Committee. The members and the chair of each Board Committee will be as determined by majority vote of the Independent Trustees upon the recommendation of the Committee. It is anticipated that members and chairs of any Committee will be designated annually (other than the Chairs of the Operations Committee and the Governance and Nominating Committee), with membership periodically rotated to give Independent Trustees the opportunity to broaden their experience. Rotation will be accomplished in a manner that provides reasonable continuity of membership.

(f) Review the annual calendar of Board Committee meetings and the schedule for consideration of routine or recurring matters.

(g) Make recommendations on the requirements for, and means of, Board of Trustees orientation and training.

(h) Act as administrative committee under the Funds’ fee deferral plan for Independent Trustees.

(i) Monitor the performance of legal counsel employed by the Funds and the Independent Trustees and be responsible for the supervision of counsel for the Independent Trustees. The selection and oversight of fund counsel shall be the joint responsibility of the Committee and Fidelity. On behalf of the Independent Trustees, the Committee will make such findings and determinations as to the independence of counsel for the Independent Trustees as may be necessary or appropriate under applicable regulations or otherwise.

(j) Be responsible for oversight of Independent Trustees administrative matters, such as expense reimbursement policies and compensation for attendance at meetings, conferences and other events.

(k) Monitor compliance with, act as the administrator of, and make determinations in respect of (a) the provisions of the Code of Ethics applicable to the Independent Trustees, and (b) supplemental policies adopted by the Independent Trustees in respect of personal securities transactions of Independent Trustees.

(l) Monitor the functioning of the Board Committees and make recommendations for any changes, including the creation or elimination of standing or ad hoc Board Committees.

Ex-3


(m) Monitor regulatory and other developments to determine whether to recommend modifications to the Committee’s responsibilities or other Trustee policies and procedures in light of rule changes, reports concerning “best practices” in corporate governance and other developments in mutual fund governance. The Committee will report regularly to the Independent Trustees with respect to these activities.

(n) Recommend that the Board establish such special or ad hoc Board Committees as may be desirable or necessary from time to time in order to address ethical, legal or other matters that may arise. The Committee’s power to make such a recommendation under this Charter shall be without prejudice to the right of any other committee of the Board, or any individual trustee/director, to make such a recommendation at any time.

(o) Oversee the annual self-evaluation of the Board of Trustees. The Committee shall establish procedures to allow it to exercise this oversight function. In conducting this oversight, the Committee shall address all matters that the Committee considers relevant to the Board of Trustees’ performance. The Committee shall report to the Board of Trustees on the results of its evaluation, including any recommended amendments to the principles of governance, and any recommended changes to the Funds’ or the Board of Trustees’ policies, procedures and structures. This report may be written or oral.

(2) Nominating Functions

(a) Identification of Candidates

(i) Review periodically the size and composition of the Board of Trustees as a whole and recommend, if necessary, measures to be taken so that the Board of Trustees reflects the appropriate balance of knowledge, experience, skills, expertise and diversity required for the Board as a whole and contains at least the minimum number of Independent Trustees required by law.

(ii) Periodically review the Independent Trustees’ Statement of Policy on Criteria for Selecting Independent Trustees (“Statement of Policy”), which may from time to time be revised by vote of a majority of Independent Trustees upon the recommendation of the Committee.

(iii) Make nominations for the appointment or election of Independent Trustees in accordance with the Statement of Policy. The selection of Independent Trustees will be committed solely to the discretion of the Independent Trustees; persons so selected will be “disinterested” in terms of both the letter and spirit of the Investment Company Act.

(iv) Make nominations for the appointment of anynon-management member of any Advisory Board which the Board of Trustees shall have from time to time established. Each member of any Advisory Board shall serve at the pleasure of the Board of Trustees. In accordance with the definition of “advisory board” in Section 2(a)(1) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, any Advisory Board shall be distinct from the Board of Trustees and shall serve such advisory functions as to investments and such other roles as may be designated by the Board of Trustees, but shall have no power to determine that any security or other investment shall be purchased or sold by any fund. In the

Ex-4


discretion of the Board of Trustees, each Advisory Board member may be indemnified in respect of claims arising in connection with his or her services as such. Any member of an Advisory Board shall be compensated in accordance with policies in respect thereof adopted by the Board of Trustees. Service by a person on an Advisory Board shall not preclude such person’s subsequent service as a Trustee.

(v) Consider Independent Trustee candidates recommended by Fund shareholders. Any such candidates will be considered based upon the criteria applied to candidates presented to the Committee by a search firm or other sources, as set forth in the Statement of Policy. The names of such candidates should be submitted to the Chair in writing at the address maintained for communications with Independent Trustees. The submission should be accompanied by appropriate background material concerning the candidate that demonstrates his or her ability to serve as an Independent Trustee of the Funds. If the Committee retains a search firm, the Chair will generally forward such submissions to the search firm for evaluation unless the Committee concludes that the credentials of such candidate are not consistent with the criteria that are to be applied by the Committee in such search.

G. Consultants; Investigations and Studies; Outside Advisers

The Committee shall have the authority to carry out its duties and responsibilities as set forth in this Charter. The Committee shall have authority to retain and terminate any third-party advisers, including authority to approve fees and other retention terms. The Committee may conduct or authorize investigations into or studies of matters within the Committee’s scope of responsibilities, and may retain, at the Funds’ expense, such independent counsel or other advisers as it deems necessary. The Committee may call upon the Funds’ independent accountants (with the concurrence of the Audit Committee) or other third parties for such fact-finding and analysis as may be appropriate in light of the objectives of this Charter.

H. Self-Assessment; Amendment of Charter

The Committee shall, on an annual basis, assess its performance. The Committee shall address such matters as the Committee considers relevant to its performance. The Committee shall report to the Board on an annual basis the results of its evaluation, including any recommended amendments to this Charter and any recommended changes to a Fund’s or the Board’s policies or procedures. This report may be oral or written. The Committee may from time to time recommend to the Board such amendments to this Charter as the Committee determines to be necessary or appropriate.

To the knowledge of the trusts, no other shareholder owned of record or beneficially more than 5% of the outstanding shares of each class of the funds on that date.

A shareholder owning of record or beneficially more than 25% of a fund’s outstanding shares may be considered a controlling person. That shareholder’s vote could have a more significant effect on matters presented at a shareholders’ meeting than votes of other shareholders.

Proxy Voting by Shareholders of Fidelity Funds

Thank you for investing with Fidelity!

A mutual fund is an investment company, and your investment in shares of a Fidelity mutual fund makes you a shareholder of the fund. As a shareholder, you are entitled to vote on matters presented at a fund’s shareholder meeting.

Mutual funds, like other companies, hold shareholder meetings to present and discuss important management decisions that require shareholder input, including proposed changes to fund services or certain policies.

You are entitled to one vote for each dollar of net asset value you own.

The Trustees of your Fidelity Fund— most of whom are not affiliated with Fidelity—are responsible for considering your interests as a shareholder.

One privilege of a mutual fund shareholder is to participate in electing the Trustees for your Fidelity Fund.
In turn, the Trustees, after careful review, may request your vote on other proposals that affect the fund and your investment in it.

We believe that voting by proxy online or by phone is the most convenient way for you to participate in a Fidelity Fund vote.

You can cast a proxy vote online, over the telephone, or through postal mail.
That way, your vote can be counted without your having to attend the meeting in person.
Or you may attend a shareholder meeting to vote in person.

We appreciate your placing your trust in Fidelity, and thank you for allowing us to help you achieve your financial goals.

Frequently Asked Questions

- What is proxy voting?

When your vote is requested on proposals that affect the fund and your investment in it, you could, if you wanted, attend the shareholder meeting in person—or you could vote by proxy online or by phone. This way, your vote can be counted without your having to attend the meeting in person.

Top

-When will I receive the information I need to vote?

A proxy statement, which provides details regarding the meeting and the management and shareholder proposals, if any, that will be voted on at the meeting, is provided to shareholders before the meeting is held. The proxy statement may be sent to you via U.S. mail or email, if you have consented to electronic delivery, or you may receive a notice linking you to a website where you can review it online.

Top

-How can I submit a proxy vote?

You may submit a proxy vote through U.S. mail, over the telephone, or online, based on the instructions contained in the proxy statement. Votes must be submitted prior to the close of voting in order to be counted. Please vote your shares promptly. Your vote is extremely important, no matter how large or small your holdings may be.

Top

-I consented for eDelivery of proxy materials—is it possible to receive hard copy paper materials instead?

By consenting to eDelivery of proxy, you have agreed to online receipt of important proxy materials. To request a written copy of any Fidelity Fund proxy materials via telephone please call 800-343-3548. On the voting screen, you may also choose to change your eDelivery preferences for future proxy campaigns.

Your retirement benefit plan account mail preferences for statements, prospectuses, proxies and other benefit information will apply to your Fidelity BrokerageLink® Account. You may change this electronic delivery default for your BrokerageLinkSM account at any time by logging on to NetBenefits and updating your mail preferences. [if shareholder clicks on the “log in” icon a window appears where they can log in to NetBenefits and update their mail preferences.]

Top

-I used to enter a PIN when voting proxy—why is this no longer required?

By using Fidelity.com to access the online voting site, a secure transaction with your control number information has been established and the PIN is no longer required to securely complete this transaction.

Top

-I voted and I would like to change my vote—is this possible?

Yes, you can vote again using the “Voted” link in the Action column as long as voting is still open. The latest valid vote cast will be recorded and the Last Action Taken date will update. If you do not complete the process of re-voting, the last vote cast remains on record.

Top

Does my vote matter?

Your vote is extremely important, no matter how large or small your holdings may be.


In order to take action at a Fidelity Funds shareholder meeting, a quorum must be achieved. Quorum is achieved when a sufficient number of shareholders are represented in person or by proxy at the shareholder meeting. If quorum is not achieved, the meeting may adjourn to a future date.

Fidelity and/or a third-party proxy vendor attempts to reach shareholders via multiple mailings or emails to remind them to cast their votes. As the meeting date approaches, phone calls may be made to shareholders who have not yet voted.

Voting your shares immediately when you receive notification will help the meeting achieve quorum and minimize additional expense and efforts to contact you by email or phone to solicit your vote.

Top

-Who are “Computershare”, “Broadridge” and D.F. King?

The shareholder proxy voting process is typically managed on behalf of the Fidelity funds by a proxy vendor. Fidelity may hire a third-party proxy vendor to call shareholders and record proxy votes. Computershare, Broadridge and D.F. King are examples of third-party proxy vendors that may have been retained by the Fidelity Funds.

Top

-How can I opt out of telephone calls about shareholder proxy voting?

Please call Fidelity at 800-343-3548 to make this request.
