Semiannual Report
As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including redemption fees, and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (January 1, 2009 to June 30, 2009).
Actual Expenses
The first line of the accompanying table for each class of the Fund provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000.00 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000.00 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line for a class of the Fund under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. The estimate of expenses does not include any fees or other expenses of any variable annuity or variable life insurance product. If they were, the estimate of expenses you paid during the period would be higher, and your ending account value would be lower. In addition, the Fund, as a shareholder in the underlying Fidelity Central Funds, will indirectly bear its pro-rata share of the fees and expenses incurred by the underlying Fidelity Central Funds. These fees and expenses are not included in the Fund's annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimate in the table below.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The second line of the accompanying table for each class of the Fund provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on a Class' actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Class' actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. The estimate of expenses does not include any fees or other expenses of any variable annuity or variable life insurance product. If they were, the estimate of expenses you paid during the period would be higher, and your ending account value would be lower. In addition, the Fund, as a shareholder in the underlying Fidelity Central Funds, will indirectly bear its pro-rata share of the fees and expenses incurred by the underlying Fidelity Central Funds. These fees and expenses are not included in the Fund's annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimate in the table below.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transaction costs. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.
| Annualized Expense Ratio | Beginning Account Value January 1, 2009 | Ending Account Value June 30, 2009 | Expenses Paid During Period* January 1, 2009 to June 30, 2009 |
Initial Class | 1.00% | | | |
Actual | | $ 1,000.00 | $ 1,092.10 | $ 5.19 |
HypotheticalA | | $ 1,000.00 | $ 1,019.84 | $ 5.01 |
Investor Class | 1.08% | | | |
Actual | | $ 1,000.00 | $ 1,092.10 | $ 5.60 |
HypotheticalA | | $ 1,000.00 | $ 1,019.44 | $ 5.41 |
A 5% return per year before expenses
* Expenses are equal to each Class' annualized expense ratio, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 181/365 (to reflect the one-half year period).

Semiannual Report
Notes to Financial Statements
For the period ended June 30, 2009 (Unaudited)
1. Organization.
VIP Consumer Discretionary Portfolio (the Fund) is a non-diversified fund of Variable Insurance Products Fund IV (the trust) and is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares. The trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust. Shares of the Fund may only be purchased by insurance companies for the purpose of funding variable annuity or variable life insurance contracts. The Fund offers the following classes of shares: Initial Class shares and Investor Class shares. All classes have equal rights and voting privileges, except for matters affecting a single class. Investment income, realized and unrealized capital gains and losses, the common expenses of the Fund, and certain fund-level expense reductions, if any, are allocated on a pro-rata basis to each class based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of the Fund. Each class differs with respect to transfer agent fees incurred. Certain expense reductions also differ by class.
2. Investments in Fidelity Central Funds.
The Fund may invest in Fidelity Central Funds, which are open-end investment companies available only to other investment companies and accounts managed by Fidelity Management & Research Company (FMR) and its affiliates. The Fund's Schedule of Investments lists each of the Fidelity Central Funds held as of period end, if any, as an investment of the Fund, but does not include the underlying holdings of each Fidelity Central Fund. As an Investing Fund, the Fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of the expenses of the underlying Fidelity Central Funds.
The Money Market Central Funds seek preservation of capital and current income and are managed by Fidelity Investments Money Management, Inc. (FIMM), an affiliate of FMR.
A complete unaudited list of holdings for each Fidelity Central Fund is available upon request or at the SEC's web site at www.sec.gov. In addition, the financial statements of the Fidelity Central Funds are available on the SEC's web site or upon request.
3. Significant Accounting Policies.
The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which require management to make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Events or transactions occurring after period end through the date that the financial statements were issued, August 13, 2009, have been evaluated in the preparation of the financial statements. The following summarizes the significant accounting policies of the Fund:
Security Valuation. Investments are valued as of 4:00 p.m. Eastern time on the last calendar day of the period. The Fund uses independent pricing services approved by the Board of Trustees to value its investments. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) establishes a disclosure hierarchy that categorizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to value assets and liabilities at measurement date. These inputs are classified into three levels. Level 1 includes readily available unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 includes observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable either directly or indirectly. Level 3 includes unobservable inputs when market prices are not readily available or reliable. Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers in or out of an investment's assigned level within the hierarchy. The aggregate value by input level, as of June 30, 2009, for the Fund's investments, as well as a reconciliation of assets and liabilities for which significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) were used in determining value, is included at the end of the Fund's Schedule of Investments. Valuation techniques of the Fund's major categories of assets and liabilities as presented in the Schedule of Investments are as follows.
Equity securities, including restricted securities, for which market quotations are readily available, are valued at the last reported sale price or official closing price as reported by an independent pricing service on the primary market or exchange on which they are traded. In the event there were no sales during the day or closing prices are not available, securities are valued at the last quoted bid price. Investments in open-end mutual funds, including the Fidelity Central Funds, are valued at their closing net asset value each business day. Short-term securities with remaining maturities of sixty days or less for which quotations are not readily available are valued at amortized cost, which approximates value.
When current market prices or quotations are not readily available or reliable, valuations may be determined in good faith in accordance with procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees. Factors used in determining value may include significant market or security specific events, changes in interest rates and credit quality, and developments in foreign markets which are monitored by evaluating the performance of ADRs, futures contracts and exchange-traded funds. The frequency with which these procedures are used cannot be predicted and may be utilized to a significant extent. The value of securities used for net asset value (NAV) calculation under these procedures may differ from published prices for the same securities.
Foreign Currency. The Fund uses foreign currency contracts to facilitate transactions in foreign-denominated securities. Losses from these transactions may arise from changes in the value of the foreign currency or if the counterparties do not perform under the contracts' terms.
Foreign-denominated assets, including investment securities, and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate at period end. Purchases and sales of investment securities, income and dividends received and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate in effect on the transaction date.

3. Significant Accounting Policies - continued
Foreign Currency - continued
The effects of exchange rate fluctuations on investments are included with the net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investment securities. Other foreign currency transactions resulting in realized and unrealized gain (loss) are disclosed separately.
Investment Transactions and Income. For financial reporting purposes, the Fund's investment holdings and NAV include trades executed through the end of the last business day of the period. The NAV per share for processing shareholder transactions is calculated as of the close of business of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time and includes trades executed through the end of the prior business day. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost and may include proceeds received from litigation. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except for certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Distributions received on securities that represent a return of capital or capital gain are recorded as a reduction of cost of investments and/or as a realized gain. The Fund estimates the components of distributions received that may be considered return of capital distributions or capital gain distributions. Interest income and distributions from the Fidelity Central Funds are accrued as earned. Interest income includes coupon interest and amortization of premium and accretion of discount on debt securities. Investment income is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery of such taxes is uncertain.
Expenses. Most expenses of the trust can be directly attributed to a fund. Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned among each Fund in the trust. Expense estimates are accrued in the period to which they relate and adjustments are made when actual amounts are known.
Income Tax Information and Distributions to Shareholders. Each year, the Fund intends to qualify as a regulated investment company by distributing substantially all of its taxable income and realized gains under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code and filing its U.S. federal tax return. As a result, no provision for income taxes is required. The Fund is subject to the provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainties in Income Taxes (FIN 48). FIN 48 sets forth a minimum threshold for financial statement recognition of the benefit of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. There are no unrecognized tax benefits in the accompanying financial statements. A Fund's federal tax return is subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for a period of three years. Foreign taxes are provided for based on the Fund's understanding of the tax rules and rates that exist in the foreign markets in which it invests.
Distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income dividends and capital gain distributions are declared separately for each class. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles.
Capital accounts within the financial statements are adjusted for permanent book-tax differences. These adjustments have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. Temporary book-tax differences will reverse in a subsequent period.
Book-tax differences are primarily due to foreign currency transactions, capital loss carryforwards, and losses deferred due to wash sales and excise tax regulations.
The federal tax cost of investments and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) as of period end were as follows:
Unrealized appreciation | $ 483,152 |
Unrealized depreciation | (1,516,278) |
Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) | $ (1,033,126) |
Cost for federal income tax purposes | $ 8,498,726 |
Trading (Redemption) Fees. Shares held less than 60 days are subject to a redemption fee equal to 1% of the proceeds of the redeemed shares. All redemption fees, including any estimated redemption fees paid by FMR, are retained by the Fund and accounted for as an addition to paid in capital.
4. Operating Policies.
Repurchase Agreements. FMR has received an Exemptive Order from the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) which permits the Fund and other affiliated entities of FMR to transfer uninvested cash balances into joint trading accounts which are then invested in repurchase agreements. The Fund may also invest directly with institutions in repurchase agreements. Repurchase agreements are collateralized by government or non-government securities. Upon settlement date, collateral is held in segregated accounts with custodian banks and may be obtained in the event of a default of the counterparty. The Fund monitors, on a daily basis, the value of the collateral to ensure it is at least equal to the principal amount of the repurchase agreement (including accrued interest). In the event of a default by the counterparty, realization of the collateral proceeds could be delayed, during which time the value of the collateral may decline.
Semiannual Report
5. Purchases and Sales of Investments.
Purchases and sales of securities, other than short-term securities, aggregated $7,140,765 and $4,558,865, respectively.
6. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates.
Management Fee. FMR and its affiliates provide the Fund with investment management related services for which the Fund pays a monthly management fee. The management fee is the sum of an individual fund fee rate that is based on an annual rate of .30% of the Fund's average net assets and a group fee rate that averaged .27% during the period. The group fee rate is based upon the average net assets of all the mutual funds advised by FMR. The group fee rate decreases as assets under management increase and increases as assets under management decrease. For the period, the total annualized management fee rate was .56% of the Fund's average net assets.
Transfer Agent Fees. Fidelity Investments Institutional Operations Company, Inc. (FIIOC), an affiliate of FMR, is the Fund's transfer, dividend disbursing, and shareholder servicing agent. FIIOC receives an asset-based fee with respect to each class. Each class (with the exception of Investor Class) pays a transfer agent fee, excluding out of pocket expenses, equal to an annual rate of .07% of average net assets. Investor Class pays a monthly asset-based transfer agent fee of .15% of average net assets. The total transfer agent fees paid by each class to FIIOC, including out of pocket expenses, were as follows:
Initial Class | $ 3,360 |
Investor Class | 3,411 |
| $ 6,771 |
Accounting Fees. Fidelity Service Company, Inc. (FSC), an affiliate of FMR, maintains the Fund's accounting records. The fee is based on the level of average net assets for the month.
Brokerage Commissions. The Fund placed a portion of its portfolio transactions with brokerage firms which are affiliates of the investment adviser. The commissions paid to these affiliated firms were $978 for the period.
7. Committed Line of Credit.
The Fund participates with other funds managed by FMR in a $3.5 billion credit facility (the "line of credit") to be utilized for temporary or emergency purposes to fund shareholder redemptions or for other short-term liquidity purposes. The Fund has agreed to pay commitment fees on its pro-rata portion of the line of credit, which amounted to $15 and is reflected in Miscellaneous Expense on the Statement of Operations. During the period, there were no borrowings on this line of credit.
8. Expense Reductions.
FMR voluntarily agreed to reimburse each class to the extent annual operating expenses exceeded certain levels of average net assets as noted in the table below. Some expenses, for example interest expense, including commitment fees, are excluded from this reimbursement.
The following classes were in reimbursement during the period:
| Expense Limitations | Reimbursement from adviser |
Initial Class | 1.00% | $ 8,950 |
Investor Class | 1.08% | 6,228 |
| | $ 15,178 |
Many of the brokers with whom FMR places trades on behalf of the Fund provided services to the Fund in addition to trade execution. These services included payments of certain expenses on behalf of the Fund totaling $9 for the period.

11. Other.
The Fund's organizational documents provide former and current trustees and officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the Fund. In the normal course of business, the Fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against the Fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.
At the end of the period, FMR or its affiliates were the owners of record of 100% of the total outstanding shares of the Fund.

Semiannual Report
As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including redemption fees, and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (January 1, 2009 to June 30, 2009).
Actual Expenses
The first line of the accompanying table for each class of the Fund provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000.00 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000.00 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line for a class of the Fund under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. The estimate of expenses does not include any fees or other expenses of any variable annuity or variable life insurance product. If they were, the estimate of expenses you paid during the period would be higher, and your ending account value would be lower. In addition, the Fund, as a shareholder in the underlying Fidelity Central Funds, will indirectly bear its pro-rata share of the fees and expenses incurred by the underlying Fidelity Central Funds. These fees and expenses are not included in the Fund's annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimate in the table below.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The second line of the accompanying table for each class of the Fund provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on a Class' actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Class' actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. The estimate of expenses does not include any fees or other expenses of any variable annuity or variable life insurance product. If they were, the estimate of expenses you paid during the period would be higher, and your ending account value would be lower. In addition, the Fund, as a shareholder in the underlying Fidelity Central Funds, will indirectly bear its pro-rata share of the fees and expenses incurred by the underlying Fidelity Central Funds. These fees and expenses are not included in the Fund's annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimate in the table below.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transaction costs. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.
| Annualized Expense Ratio | Beginning Account Value January 1, 2009 | Ending Account Value June 30, 2009 | Expenses Paid During Period* January 1, 2009 to June 30, 2009 |

1. Organization.
VIP Consumer Staples Portfolio (the Fund) is a non-diversified fund of Variable Insurance Products Fund IV (the trust) and is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares. The trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust. Shares of the Fund may only be purchased by insurance companies for the purpose of funding variable annuity or variable life insurance contracts. The Fund offers the following classes of shares: Initial Class shares and Investor Class shares. All classes have equal rights and voting privileges, except for matters affecting a single class. Investment income, realized and unrealized capital gains and losses, the common expenses of the Fund, and certain fund-level expense reductions, if any, are allocated on a pro-rata basis to each class based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of the Fund. Each class differs with respect to transfer agent fees incurred. Certain expense reductions also differ by class.
2. Investments in Fidelity Central Funds.
The Fund may invest in Fidelity Central Funds, which are open-end investment companies available only to other investment companies and accounts managed by Fidelity Management & Research Company (FMR) and its affiliates. The Fund's Schedule of Investments lists each of the Fidelity Central Funds held as of period end, if any, as an investment of the Fund, but does not include the underlying holdings of each Fidelity Central Fund. As an Investing Fund, the Fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of the expenses of the underlying Fidelity Central Funds.
The Money Market Central Funds seek preservation of capital and current income and are managed by Fidelity Investments Money Management, Inc. (FIMM), an affiliate of FMR.
A complete unaudited list of holdings for each Fidelity Central Fund is available upon request or at the SEC's web site at www.sec.gov. In addition, the financial statements of the Fidelity Central Funds are available on the SEC's web site or upon request.
3. Significant Accounting Policies.
The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which require management to make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Events or transactions occurring after period end through the date that the financial statements were issued, August 13, 2009, have been evaluated in the preparation of the financial statements. The following summarizes the significant accounting policies of the Fund:
Security Valuation. Investments are valued as of 4:00 p.m. Eastern time on the last calendar day of the period. The Fund uses independent pricing services approved by the Board of Trustees to value its investments. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) establishes a disclosure hierarchy that categorizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to value assets and liabilities at measurement date. These inputs are classified into three levels. Level 1 includes readily available unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 includes observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable either directly or indirectly. Level 3 includes unobservable inputs when market prices are not readily available or reliable. Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers in or out of an investment's assigned level within the hierarchy. The aggregate value by input level, as of June 30, 2009, for the Fund's investments is included at the end of the Fund's Schedule of Investments. Valuation techniques of the Fund's major categories of assets and liabilities as presented in the Schedule of Investments are as follows.
Equity securities, including restricted securities, for which market quotations are readily available, are valued at the last reported sale price or official closing price as reported by an independent pricing service on the primary market or exchange on which they are traded. In the event there were no sales during the day or closing prices are not available, securities are valued at the last quoted bid price. Investments in open-end mutual funds, including the Fidelity Central Funds, are valued at their closing net asset value each business day. Short-term securities with remaining maturities of sixty days or less for which quotations are not readily available are valued at amortized cost, which approximates value.
When current market prices or quotations are not readily available or reliable, valuations may be determined in good faith in accordance with procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees. Factors used in determining value may include significant market or security specific events, changes in interest rates and credit quality, and developments in foreign markets which are monitored by evaluating the performance of ADRs, futures contracts and exchange-traded funds. The frequency with which these procedures are used cannot be predicted and may be utilized to a significant extent. The value of securities used for net asset value (NAV) calculation under these procedures may differ from published prices for the same securities.
Foreign Currency. The Fund uses foreign currency contracts to facilitate transactions in foreign-denominated securities. Losses from these transactions may arise from changes in the value of the foreign currency or if the counterparties do not perform under the contracts' terms.
Foreign-denominated assets, including investment securities, and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate at period end. Purchases and sales of investment securities, income and dividends received and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate in effect on the transaction date.
The effects of exchange rate fluctuations on investments are included with the net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investment securities. Other foreign currency transactions resulting in realized and unrealized gain (loss) are disclosed separately.

3. Significant Accounting Policies - continued
Investment Transactions and Income. For financial reporting purposes, the Fund's investment holdings and NAV include trades executed through the end of the last business day of the period. The NAV per share for processing shareholder transactions is calculated as of the close of business of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time and includes trades executed through the end of the prior business day. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except for certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Interest income and distributions from the Fidelity Central Funds are accrued as earned. Interest income includes coupon interest and amortization of premium and accretion of discount on debt securities. Investment income is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery of such taxes is uncertain.
Expenses. Most expenses of the trust can be directly attributed to a fund. Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned among each Fund in the trust. Expense estimates are accrued in the period to which they relate and adjustments are made when actual amounts are known.
Income Tax Information and Distributions to Shareholders. Each year, the Fund intends to qualify as a regulated investment company by distributing substantially all of its taxable income and realized gains under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code and filing its U.S. federal tax return. As a result, no provision for income taxes is required. The Fund is subject to the provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainties in Income Taxes (FIN 48). FIN 48 sets forth a minimum threshold for financial statement recognition of the benefit of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. There are no unrecognized tax benefits in the accompanying financial statements. A Fund's federal tax return is subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for a period of three years. Foreign taxes are provided for based on the Fund's understanding of the tax rules and rates that exist in the foreign markets in which it invests.
Distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income dividends and capital gain distributions are declared separately for each class. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles.
Capital accounts within the financial statements are adjusted for permanent book-tax differences. These adjustments have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. Temporary book-tax differences will reverse in a subsequent period.
Book-tax differences are primarily due to foreign currency transactions and losses deferred due to wash sales and excise tax regulations.
The federal tax cost of investments and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) as of period end were as follows:
Unrealized appreciation | $ 626,868 |
Unrealized depreciation | (3,255,045) |
Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) | $ (2,628,177) |
Cost for federal income tax purposes | $ 18,027,693 |
Trading (Redemption) Fees. Shares held less than 60 days are subject to a redemption fee equal to 1% of the proceeds of the redeemed shares. All redemption fees, including any estimated redemption fees paid by FMR, are retained by the Fund and accounted for as an addition to paid in capital.
4. Purchases and Sales of Investments.
Purchases and sales of securities, other than short-term securities, aggregated $6,295,553 and $13,053,198, respectively.
5. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates.
Management Fee. FMR and its affiliates provide the Fund with investment management related services for which the Fund pays a monthly management fee. The management fee is the sum of an individual fund fee rate that is based on an annual rate of .30% of the Fund's average net assets and a group fee rate that averaged .27% during the period. The group fee rate is based upon the average net assets of all the mutual funds advised by FMR. The group fee rate decreases as assets under management increase and increases as assets under management decrease. For the period, the total annualized management fee rate was .57% of the Fund's average net assets.
Transfer Agent Fees. Fidelity Investments Institutional Operations Company, Inc. (FIIOC), an affiliate of FMR, is the Fund's transfer, dividend disbursing, and shareholder servicing agent. FIIOC receives an asset-based fee with respect to each class. Each class (with the exception of Investor Class) pays a transfer agent fee, excluding out of pocket expenses, equal to an annual rate of .07% of average net assets. Investor Class pays a monthly asset-based transfer agent fee of .15% of average net assets.

Brokerage Commissions. The Fund placed a portion of its portfolio transactions with brokerage firms which are affiliates of the investment adviser. The commissions paid to these affiliated firms were $325 for the period.
6. Committed Line of Credit.
The Fund participates with other funds managed by FMR in a $3.5 billion credit facility (the "line of credit") to be utilized for temporary or emergency purposes to fund shareholder redemptions or for other short-term liquidity purposes. The Fund has agreed to pay commitment fees on its pro-rata portion of the line of credit, which amounted to $61 and is reflected in Miscellaneous Expense on the Statement of Operations. During the period, there were no borrowings on this line of credit.
7. Expense Reductions.

10. Other.
The Fund's organizational documents provide former and current trustees and officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the Fund. In the normal course of business, the Fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against the Fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.
At the end of the period, FMR or its affiliates were the owners of record of 100% of the total outstanding shares of the Fund.

Semiannual Report
As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including redemption fees, and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (January 1, 2009 to June 30, 2009).
Actual Expenses
The first line of the accompanying table for each class of the Fund provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000.00 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000.00 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line for a class of the Fund under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. The estimate of expenses does not include any fees or other expenses of any variable annuity or variable life insurance product. If they were, the estimate of expenses you paid during the period would be higher, and your ending account value would be lower. In addition, the Fund, as a shareholder in the underlying Fidelity Central Funds, will indirectly bear its pro-rata share of the fees and expenses incurred by the underlying Fidelity Central Funds. These fees and expenses are not included in the Fund's annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimate in the table below.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The second line of the accompanying table for each class of the Fund provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on a Class' actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Class' actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. The estimate of expenses does not include any fees or other expenses of any variable annuity or variable life insurance product. If they were, the estimate of expenses you paid during the period would be higher, and your ending account value would be lower. In addition, the Fund, as a shareholder in the underlying Fidelity Central Funds, will indirectly bear its pro-rata share of the fees and expenses incurred by the underlying Fidelity Central Funds. These fees and expenses are not included in the Fund's annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimate in the table below.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transaction costs. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

Semiannual Report
Notes to Financial Statements
For the period ended June 30, 2009 (Unaudited)
1. Organization.
VIP Emerging Markets Portfolio (the Fund) is a fund of Variable Insurance Products Fund IV (the trust) and is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares. The trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust. Shares of the Fund may only be purchased by insurance companies for the purpose of funding variable annuity or variable life insurance contracts. The Fund offers the following classes of shares: Initial Class shares, Service Class shares, Service Class 2 shares, Initial Class R shares, Service Class 2R shares, and Investor Class R shares. All classes have equal rights and voting privileges, except for matters affecting a single class. Investment income, realized and unrealized capital gains and losses, the common expenses of the Fund, and certain fund-level expense reductions, if any, are allocated on a pro-rata basis to each class based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of the Fund. Each class differs with respect to transfer agent and distribution and service plan fees incurred. Certain expense reductions also differ by class. The Fund's investments in emerging markets can be subject to social, economic, regulatory, and political uncertainties and can be extremely volatile.
2. Investments in Fidelity Central Funds.
The Fund may invest in Fidelity Central Funds, which are open-end investment companies available only to other investment companies and accounts managed by Fidelity Management & Research Company (FMR) and its affiliates. The Fund's Schedule of Investments lists each of the Fidelity Central Funds held as of period end, if any, as an investment of the Fund, but does not include the underlying holdings of each Fidelity Central Fund. As an Investing Fund, the Fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of the expenses of the underlying Fidelity Central Funds.
The Money Market Central Funds seek preservation of capital and current income and are managed by Fidelity Investments Money Management, Inc. (FIMM), an affiliate of FMR.
A complete unaudited list of holdings for each Fidelity Central Fund is available upon request or at the SEC's web site at www.sec.gov. In addition, the financial statements of the Fidelity Central Funds are available on the SEC's web site or upon request.
3. Significant Accounting Policies.
The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which require management to make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Events or transactions occurring after period end through the date that the financial statements were issued, August 10, 2009, have been evaluated in the preparation of the financial statements. The following summarizes the significant accounting policies of the Fund:
Security Valuation. Investments are valued as of 4:00 p.m. Eastern time on the last calendar day of the period. The Fund uses independent pricing services approved by the Board of Trustees to value its investments. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) establishes a disclosure hierarchy that categorizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to value assets and liabilities at measurement date. These inputs are classified into three levels. Level 1 includes readily available unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 includes observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable either directly or indirectly. Level 3 includes unobservable inputs when market prices are not readily available or reliable. Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers in or out of an investment's assigned level within the hierarchy. The aggregate value by input level, as of June 30, 2009, for the Fund's investments is included at the end of the Fund's Schedule of Investments. Valuation techniques of the Fund's major categories of assets and liabilities as presented in the Schedule of Investments are as follows.
Equity securities, including restricted securities, for which market quotations are readily available, are valued at the last reported sale price or official closing price as reported by an independent pricing service on the primary market or exchange on which they are traded. In the event there were no sales during the day or closing prices are not available, securities are valued at the last quoted bid price. Investments in open-end mutual funds, including the Fidelity Central Funds, are valued at their closing net asset value each business day. Short-term securities with remaining maturities of sixty days or less for which quotations are not readily available are valued at amortized cost, which approximates value.
When current market prices or quotations are not readily available or reliable, valuations may be determined in good faith in accordance with procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees. Factors used in determining value may include significant market or security specific events, changes in interest rates and credit quality, and developments in foreign markets which are monitored by evaluating the performance of ADRs, futures contracts and exchange-traded funds. The frequency with which these procedures are used cannot be predicted and may be utilized to a significant extent. The value of securities used for net asset value (NAV) calculation under these procedures may differ from published prices for the same securities.
Foreign Currency. The Fund uses foreign currency contracts to facilitate transactions in foreign-denominated securities. Losses from these transactions may arise from changes in the value of the foreign currency or if the counterparties do not perform under the contracts' terms.
Foreign-denominated assets, including investment securities, and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate at period end. Purchases and sales of investment securities, income and dividends received and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate in effect on the transaction date.

3. Significant Accounting Policies - continued
Foreign Currency - continued
The effects of exchange rate fluctuations on investments are included with the net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investment securities. Other foreign currency transactions resulting in realized and unrealized gain (loss) are disclosed separately.
Investment Transactions and Income. For financial reporting purposes, the Fund's investment holdings and NAV include trades executed through the end of the last business day of the period. The NAV per share for processing shareholder transactions is calculated as of the close of business of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time and includes trades executed through the end of the prior business day. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except for certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Distributions received on securities that represent a return of capital or capital gain are recorded as a reduction of cost of investments and/or as a realized gain. The Fund estimates the components of distributions received that may be considered return of capital distributions or capital gain distributions. Interest income and distributions from the Fidelity Central Funds are accrued as earned. Interest income includes coupon interest and amortization of premium and accretion of discount on debt securities. Investment income is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery of such taxes is uncertain.
Expenses. Most expenses of the trust can be directly attributed to a fund. Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned among each Fund in the trust. Expense estimates are accrued in the period to which they relate and adjustments are made when actual amounts are known.
Income Tax Information and Distributions to Shareholders. Each year, the Fund intends to qualify as a regulated investment company by distributing substantially all of its taxable income and realized gains under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code and filing its U.S. federal tax return. As a result, no provision for income taxes is required. The Fund is subject to the provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainties in Income Taxes (FIN 48). FIN 48 sets forth a minimum threshold for financial statement recognition of the benefit of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. There are no unrecognized tax benefits in the accompanying financial statements. A Fund's federal tax return is subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for a period of three years. Foreign taxes are provided for based on the Fund's understanding of the tax rules and rates that exist in the foreign markets in which it invests.
Distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income dividends and capital gain distributions are declared separately for each class. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles.
Capital accounts within the financial statements are adjusted for permanent book-tax differences. These adjustments have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. Temporary book-tax differences will reverse in a subsequent period.
Book-tax differences are primarily due to foreign currency transactions, passive foreign investment companies (PFIC), capital loss carryforwards, and losses deferred due to wash sales and excise tax regulations.
The federal tax cost of investments and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) as of period end were as follows:
Unrealized appreciation | $ 2,448,316 |
Unrealized depreciation | (2,391,195) |
Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) | $ 57,121 |
Cost for federal income tax purposes | $ 25,427,086 |
Trading (Redemption) Fees. Initial Class R shares, Service Class 2R shares and Investor Class R shares held less than 60 days are subject to a redemption fee equal to 1% of the proceeds of the redeemed shares. All redemption fees, including any estimated redemption fees paid by FMR, are retained by the Fund and accounted for as an addition to paid in capital.
4. Purchases and Sales of Investments.
Purchases and sales of securities, other than short-term securities, aggregated $19,102,687 and $5,953,638, respectively.
5. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates.
Management Fee. FMR and its affiliates provide the Fund with investment management related services for which the Fund pays a monthly management fee. The management fee is the sum of an individual fund fee rate that is based on an annual rate of .55% of the Fund's average net assets and a group fee rate that averaged .27% during the period. The group fee rate is based upon the average net assets of all the mutual funds advised by FMR. The group fee rate decreases as assets under management increase and increases as assets under management decrease. For the period, the total annualized management fee rate was .81% of the Fund's average net assets.
Semiannual Report
5. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates - continued
Distribution and Service Plan. In accordance with Rule 12b-1 of the 1940 Act, the Fund has adopted separate 12b-1 Plans for each Service Class of shares.

10. Other.
The Fund's organizational documents provide former and current trustees and officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the Fund. In the normal course of business, the Fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against the Fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.
At the end of the period, FMR or its affiliates were the owners of record of approximately 100% of the total outstanding shares of the Fund.

Semiannual Report
As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including redemption fees, and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (January 1, 2009 to June 30, 2009).
Actual Expenses
The first line of the accompanying table for each class of the Fund provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000.00 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000.00 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line for a class of the Fund under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. The estimate of expenses does not include any fees or other expenses of any variable annuity or variable life insurance product. If they were, the estimate of expenses you paid during the period would be higher, and your ending account value would be lower. In addition, the Fund, as a shareholder in the underlying Fidelity Central Funds, will indirectly bear its pro-rata share of the fees and expenses incurred by the underlying Fidelity Central Funds. These fees and expenses are not included in the Fund's annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimate in the table below.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The second line of the accompanying table for each class of the Fund provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on a Class' actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Class' actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. The estimate of expenses does not include any fees or other expenses of any variable annuity or variable life insurance product. If they were, the estimate of expenses you paid during the period would be higher, and your ending account value would be lower. In addition, the Fund, as a shareholder in the underlying Fidelity Central Funds, will indirectly bear its pro-rata share of the fees and expenses incurred by the underlying Fidelity Central Funds. These fees and expenses are not included in the Fund's annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimate in the table below.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transaction costs. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

Notes to Financial Statements
For the period ended June 30, 2009 (Unaudited)
1. Organization.
VIP Emerging Markets Portfolio (the Fund) is a fund of Variable Insurance Products Fund IV (the trust) and is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares. The trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust. Shares of the Fund may only be purchased by insurance companies for the purpose of funding variable annuity or variable life insurance contracts. The Fund offers the following classes of shares: Initial Class shares, Service Class shares, Service Class 2 shares, Initial Class R shares, Service Class 2R shares, and Investor Class R shares. All classes have equal rights and voting privileges, except for matters affecting a single class. Investment income, realized and unrealized capital gains and losses, the common expenses of the Fund, and certain fund-level expense reductions, if any, are allocated on a pro-rata basis to each class based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of the Fund. Each class differs with respect to transfer agent and distribution and service plan fees incurred. Certain expense reductions also differ by class. The Fund's investments in emerging markets can be subject to social, economic, regulatory, and political uncertainties and can be extremely volatile.
2. Investments in Fidelity Central Funds.
The Fund may invest in Fidelity Central Funds, which are open-end investment companies available only to other investment companies and accounts managed by Fidelity Management & Research Company (FMR) and its affiliates. The Fund's Schedule of Investments lists each of the Fidelity Central Funds held as of period end, if any, as an investment of the Fund, but does not include the underlying holdings of each Fidelity Central Fund. As an Investing Fund, the Fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of the expenses of the underlying Fidelity Central Funds.
The Money Market Central Funds seek preservation of capital and current income and are managed by Fidelity Investments Money Management, Inc. (FIMM), an affiliate of FMR.
A complete unaudited list of holdings for each Fidelity Central Fund is available upon request or at the SEC's web site at www.sec.gov. In addition, the financial statements of the Fidelity Central Funds are available on the SEC's web site or upon request.
3. Significant Accounting Policies.
The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which require management to make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Events or transactions occurring after period end through the date that the financial statements were issued, August 10, 2009, have been evaluated in the preparation of the financial statements. The following summarizes the significant accounting policies of the Fund:
Security Valuation. Investments are valued as of 4:00 p.m. Eastern time on the last calendar day of the period. The Fund uses independent pricing services approved by the Board of Trustees to value its investments. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) establishes a disclosure hierarchy that categorizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to value assets and liabilities at measurement date. These inputs are classified into three levels. Level 1 includes readily available unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 includes observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable either directly or indirectly. Level 3 includes unobservable inputs when market prices are not readily available or reliable. Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers in or out of an investment's assigned level within the hierarchy. The aggregate value by input level, as of June 30, 2009, for the Fund's investments is included at the end of the Fund's Schedule of Investments. Valuation techniques of the Fund's major categories of assets and liabilities as presented in the Schedule of Investments are as follows.
Equity securities, including restricted securities, for which market quotations are readily available, are valued at the last reported sale price or official closing price as reported by an independent pricing service on the primary market or exchange on which they are traded. In the event there were no sales during the day or closing prices are not available, securities are valued at the last quoted bid price. Investments in open-end mutual funds, including the Fidelity Central Funds, are valued at their closing net asset value each business day. Short-term securities with remaining maturities of sixty days or less for which quotations are not readily available are valued at amortized cost, which approximates value.
When current market prices or quotations are not readily available or reliable, valuations may be determined in good faith in accordance with procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees. Factors used in determining value may include significant market or security specific events, changes in interest rates and credit quality, and developments in foreign markets which are monitored by evaluating the performance of ADRs, futures contracts and exchange-traded funds. The frequency with which these procedures are used cannot be predicted and may be utilized to a significant extent. The value of securities used for net asset value (NAV) calculation under these procedures may differ from published prices for the same securities.
Foreign Currency. The Fund uses foreign currency contracts to facilitate transactions in foreign-denominated securities. Losses from these transactions may arise from changes in the value of the foreign currency or if the counterparties do not perform under the contracts' terms.
Foreign-denominated assets, including investment securities, and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate at period end. Purchases and sales of investment securities, income and dividends received and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate in effect on the transaction date.

3. Significant Accounting Policies - continued
Foreign Currency - continued
The effects of exchange rate fluctuations on investments are included with the net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investment securities. Other foreign currency transactions resulting in realized and unrealized gain (loss) are disclosed separately.
Investment Transactions and Income. For financial reporting purposes, the Fund's investment holdings and NAV include trades executed through the end of the last business day of the period. The NAV per share for processing shareholder transactions is calculated as of the close of business of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time and includes trades executed through the end of the prior business day. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except for certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Distributions received on securities that represent a return of capital or capital gain are recorded as a reduction of cost of investments and/or as a realized gain. The Fund estimates the components of distributions received that may be considered return of capital distributions or capital gain distributions. Interest income and distributions from the Fidelity Central Funds are accrued as earned. Interest income includes coupon interest and amortization of premium and accretion of discount on debt securities. Investment income is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery of such taxes is uncertain.
Expenses. Most expenses of the trust can be directly attributed to a fund. Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned among each Fund in the trust. Expense estimates are accrued in the period to which they relate and adjustments are made when actual amounts are known.
Income Tax Information and Distributions to Shareholders. Each year, the Fund intends to qualify as a regulated investment company by distributing substantially all of its taxable income and realized gains under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code and filing its U.S. federal tax return. As a result, no provision for income taxes is required. The Fund is subject to the provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainties in Income Taxes (FIN 48). FIN 48 sets forth a minimum threshold for financial statement recognition of the benefit of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. There are no unrecognized tax benefits in the accompanying financial statements. A Fund's federal tax return is subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for a period of three years. Foreign taxes are provided for based on the Fund's understanding of the tax rules and rates that exist in the foreign markets in which it invests.
Distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income dividends and capital gain distributions are declared separately for each class. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles.
Capital accounts within the financial statements are adjusted for permanent book-tax differences. These adjustments have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. Temporary book-tax differences will reverse in a subsequent period.
Book-tax differences are primarily due to foreign currency transactions, passive foreign investment companies (PFIC), capital loss carryforwards, and losses deferred due to wash sales and excise tax regulations.
The federal tax cost of investments and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) as of period end were as follows:
Unrealized appreciation | $ 2,448,316 |
Unrealized depreciation | (2,391,195) |
Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) | $ 57,121 |
Cost for federal income tax purposes | $ 25,427,086 |
Trading (Redemption) Fees. Initial Class R shares, Service Class 2R shares and Investor Class R shares held less than 60 days are subject to a redemption fee equal to 1% of the proceeds of the redeemed shares. All redemption fees, including any estimated redemption fees paid by FMR, are retained by the Fund and accounted for as an addition to paid in capital.
4. Purchases and Sales of Investments.
Purchases and sales of securities, other than short-term securities, aggregated $19,102,687 and $5,953,638, respectively.
5. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates.
Management Fee. FMR and its affiliates provide the Fund with investment management related services for which the Fund pays a monthly management fee. The management fee is the sum of an individual fund fee rate that is based on an annual rate of .55% of the Fund's average net assets and a group fee rate that averaged .27% during the period. The group fee rate is based upon the average net assets of all the mutual funds advised by FMR. The group fee rate decreases as assets under management increase and increases as assets under management decrease. For the period, the total annualized management fee rate was .81% of the Fund's average net assets.
Semiannual Report
5. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates - continued
Distribution and Service Plan. In accordance with Rule 12b-1 of the 1940 Act, the Fund has adopted separate 12b-1 Plans for each Service Class of shares. Each Service Class pays Fidelity Distributors Corporation (FDC), an affiliate of FMR, a service fee. For the period, the service fee is based on an annual rate of .10% of Service Class' average net assets and .25% of Service Class 2's and Service Class 2R's average net assets.
For the period, each class paid FDC the following amounts, all of which were re-allowed to insurance companies for the distribution of shares and providing shareholder support services:
Service Class | $ 195 |
Service Class 2 | 485 |
Service Class 2 R | 485 |
| $ 1,165 |
Transfer Agent Fees. Fidelity Investments Institutional Operations Company, Inc. (FIIOC), an affiliate of FMR, is the Fund's transfer, dividend disbursing, and shareholder servicing agent. FIIOC receives an asset-based fee with respect to each class. Each class (with the exception of Investor Class R) pays a transfer agent fee, excluding out of pocket expenses, equal to an annual rate of .07% of average net assets. Investor Class R pays a monthly asset-based transfer agent fee of .15% of average net assets. The total transfer agent fees paid by each class to FIIOC, including out of pocket expenses, were as follows:
Initial Class | $ 273 |
Service Class | 198 |
Service Class 2 | 198 |
Initial Class R | 3,268 |
Service Class 2R | 198 |
Investor Class R | 6,084 |
| $ 10,219 |
Accounting Fees. Fidelity Service Company, Inc. (FSC), an affiliate of FMR, maintains the Fund's accounting records. The fee is based on the level of average net assets for the month.
Brokerage Commissions. The Fund placed a portion of its portfolio transactions with brokerage firms which are affiliates of the investment adviser. The commissions paid to these affiliated firms were $396 for the period.
6. Committed Line of Credit.
The Fund participates with other funds managed by FMR in a $3.5 billion credit facility (the "line of credit") to be utilized for temporary or emergency purposes to fund shareholder redemptions or for other short-term liquidity purposes. The Fund has agreed to pay commitment fees on its pro-rata portion of the line of credit, which amounted to $24 and is reflected in Miscellaneous Expense on the Statement of Operations. During the period, there were no borrowings on this line of credit.
7. Expense Reductions.
FMR voluntarily agreed to reimburse each class to the extent annual operating expenses exceeded certain levels of average net assets as noted in the table below. Some expenses, for example interest expense, including commitment fees, are excluded from this reimbursement.
The following classes were in reimbursement during the period:
| Expense Limitations | Reimbursement from adviser |
| | |
Initial Class | 1.10% | $ 6,773 |
Service Class | 1.20% | 5,144 |
Service Class 2 | 1.35% | 5,135 |
Initial Class R | 1.10% | 69,319 |
Service Class 2R | 1.35% | 5,135 |
Investor Class R | 1.18% | 71,857 |
| | $ 163,363 |
Many of the brokers with whom FMR places trades on behalf of the Fund provided services to the Fund in addition to trade execution. These services included payments of certain expenses on behalf of the Fund totaling $4,867 for the period.

10. Other.
The Fund's organizational documents provide former and current trustees and officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the Fund. In the normal course of business, the Fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against the Fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.
At the end of the period, FMR or its affiliates were the owners of record of approximately 100% of the total outstanding shares of the Fund.

NOT FDIC INSURED · MAY LOSE VALUE · NO BANK GUARANTEE
Neither the fund nor Fidelity Distributors Corporation is a bank.
Semiannual Report
As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including redemption fees, and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (January 1, 2009 to June 30, 2009).
Actual Expenses
The first line of the accompanying table for each class of the Fund provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000.00 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000.00 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line for a class of the Fund under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. The estimate of expenses does not include any fees or other expenses of any variable annuity or variable life insurance product. If they were, the estimate of expenses you paid during the period would be higher, and your ending account value would be lower. In addition, the Fund, as a shareholder in the underlying Fidelity Central Funds, will indirectly bear its pro-rata share of the fees and expenses incurred by the underlying Fidelity Central Funds. These fees and expenses are not included in the Fund's annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimate in the table below.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The second line of the accompanying table for each class of the Fund provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on a Class' actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Class' actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. The estimate of expenses does not include any fees or other expenses of any variable annuity or variable life insurance product. If they were, the estimate of expenses you paid during the period would be higher, and your ending account value would be lower. In addition, the Fund, as a shareholder in the underlying Fidelity Central Funds, will indirectly bear its pro-rata share of the fees and expenses incurred by the underlying Fidelity Central Funds. These fees and expenses are not included in the Fund's annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimate in the table below.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transaction costs. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.
| Annualized Expense Ratio | Beginning Account Value January 1, 2009 | Ending Account Value June 30, 2009 | Expenses Paid During Period* January 1, 2009 to June 30, 2009 |

A 5% return per year before expenses
* Expenses are equal to each Class' annualized expense ratio, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 181/365 (to reflect the one-half year period).

Notes to Financial Statements
For the period ended June 30, 2009 (Unaudited)
1. Organization.
VIP Energy Portfolio (the Fund) is a non-diversified fund of Variable Insurance Products Fund IV (the trust) and is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares. The trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust. Shares of the Fund may only be purchased by insurance companies for the purpose of funding variable annuity or variable life insurance contracts. The Fund offers the following classes of shares: Initial Class shares, Service Class 2 shares and Investor Class shares. All classes have equal rights and voting privileges, except for matters affecting a single class. Investment income, realized and unrealized capital gains and losses, the common expenses of the Fund, and certain fund-level expense reductions, if any, are allocated on a pro-rata basis to each class based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of the Fund. Each class differs with respect to transfer agent and distribution and service plan fees incurred. Certain expense reductions also differ by class.
2. Investments in Fidelity Central Funds.
The Fund may invest in Fidelity Central Funds, which are open-end investment companies available only to other investment companies and accounts managed by Fidelity Management & Research Company (FMR) and its affiliates. The Fund's Schedule of Investments lists each of the Fidelity Central Funds held as of period end, if any, as an investment of the Fund, but does not include the underlying holdings of each Fidelity Central Fund. As an Investing Fund, the Fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of the expenses of the underlying Fidelity Central Funds.
The Money Market Central Funds seek preservation of capital and current income and are managed by Fidelity Investments Money Management, Inc. (FIMM), an affiliate of FMR.
A complete unaudited list of holdings for each Fidelity Central Fund is available upon request or at the SEC's web site at www.sec.gov. In addition, the financial statements of the Fidelity Central Funds are available on the SEC's web site or upon request.
3. Significant Accounting Policies.
The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which require management to make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Events or transactions occurring after period end through the date that the financial statements were issued, August 10, 2009, have been evaluated in the preparation of the financial statements. The following summarizes the significant accounting policies of the Fund:
Security Valuation. Investments are valued as of 4:00 p.m. Eastern time on the last calendar day of the period. The Fund uses independent pricing services approved by the Board of Trustees to value its investments. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) establishes a disclosure hierarchy that categorizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to value assets and liabilities at measurement date. These inputs are classified into three levels. Level 1 includes readily available unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 includes observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable either directly or indirectly. Level 3 includes unobservable inputs when market prices are not readily available or reliable. Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers in or out of an investment's assigned level within the hierarchy. The aggregate value by input level, as of June 30, 2009, for the Fund's investments is included at the end of the Fund's Schedule of Investments. Valuation techniques of the Fund's major categories of assets and liabilities as presented in the Schedule of Investments are as follows.
Equity securities, including restricted securities, for which market quotations are readily available, are valued at the last reported sale price or official closing price as reported by an independent pricing service on the primary market or exchange on which they are traded. In the event there were no sales during the day or closing prices are not available, securities are valued at the last quoted bid price. Debt securities, including restricted securities, are valued based on quotations received from dealers who make markets in such securities or by independent pricing services. For corporate bonds, pricing services generally utilize matrix pricing which considers yield or price of bonds of comparable quality, coupon, maturity and type as well as dealer supplied prices. Investments in open-end mutual funds, including the Fidelity Central Funds, are valued at their closing net asset value each business day. Short-term securities with remaining maturities of sixty days or less for which quotations are not readily available are valued at amortized cost, which approximates value.
When current market prices or quotations are not readily available or reliable, valuations may be determined in good faith in accordance with procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees. Factors used in determining value may include significant market or security specific events, changes in interest rates and credit quality, and developments in foreign markets which are monitored by evaluating the performance of ADRs, futures contracts and exchange-traded funds. The frequency with which these procedures are used cannot be predicted and may be utilized to a significant extent. The value of securities used for net asset value (NAV) calculation under these procedures may differ from published prices for the same securities.
Semiannual Report
3. Significant Accounting Policies - continued
Foreign Currency. The Fund uses foreign currency contracts to facilitate transactions in foreign-denominated securities. Losses from these transactions may arise from changes in the value of the foreign currency or if the counterparties do not perform under the contracts' terms.
Foreign-denominated assets, including investment securities, and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate at period end. Purchases and sales of investment securities, income and dividends received and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate in effect on the transaction date.
The effects of exchange rate fluctuations on investments are included with the net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investment securities. Other foreign currency transactions resulting in realized and unrealized gain (loss) are disclosed separately.
Investment Transactions and Income. For financial reporting purposes, the Fund's investment holdings and NAV include trades executed through the end of the last business day of the period. The NAV per share for processing shareholder transactions is calculated as of the close of business of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time and includes trades executed through the end of the prior business day. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost and may include proceeds received from litigation. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except for certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Distributions received on securities that represent a return of capital or capital gain are recorded as a reduction of cost of investments and/or as a realized gain. The Fund estimates the components of distributions received that may be considered return of capital distributions or capital gain distributions. Interest income and distributions from the Fidelity Central Funds are accrued as earned. Interest income includes coupon interest and amortization of premium and accretion of discount on debt securities. Investment income is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery of such taxes is uncertain.
Expenses. Most expenses of the trust can be directly attributed to a fund. Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned among each Fund in the trust. Expense estimates are accrued in the period to which they relate and adjustments are made when actual amounts are known.
Income Tax Information and Distributions to Shareholders. Each year, the Fund intends to qualify as a regulated investment company by distributing substantially all of its taxable income and realized gains under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code and filing its U.S. federal tax return. As a result, no provision for income taxes is required. The Fund is subject to the provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainties in Income Taxes (FIN 48). FIN 48 sets forth a minimum threshold for financial statement recognition of the benefit of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. There are no unrecognized tax benefits in the accompanying financial statements. A Fund's federal tax return is subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for a period of three years. Foreign taxes are provided for based on the Fund's understanding of the tax rules and rates that exist in the foreign markets in which it invests.
Distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income dividends and capital gain distributions are declared separately for each class. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles.
Capital accounts within the financial statements are adjusted for permanent book-tax differences. These adjustments have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. Temporary book-tax differences will reverse in a subsequent period.
Book-tax differences are primarily due to foreign currency transactions, partnerships and losses deferred due to wash sales and excise tax regulations.

5. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates.
Management Fee. FMR and its affiliates provide the Fund with investment management related services for which the Fund pays a monthly management fee. The management fee is the sum of an individual fund fee rate that is based on an annual rate of .30% of the Fund's average net assets and a group fee rate that averaged .27% during the period. The group fee rate is based upon the average net assets of all the mutual funds advised by FMR. The group fee rate decreases as assets under management increase and increases as assets under management decrease. For the period, the total annualized management fee rate was .56% of the Fund's average net assets.
Distribution and Service Plan. In accordance with Rule 12b-1 of the 1940 Act, the Fund has adopted a separate 12b-1 Plan for Service Class 2 shares. Service Class 2 pays Fidelity Distributors Corporation (FDC), an affiliate of FMR, a service fee. For the period, the service fee is based on an annual rate of .25% of Service Class 2's average net assets.
For the period, Service Class 2 paid FDC $120,411, all of which was re-allowed to insurance companies for the distribution of shares and providing shareholder support services.
Transfer Agent Fees. Fidelity Investments Institutional Operations Company, Inc. (FIIOC), an affiliate of FMR, is the Fund's transfer, dividend disbursing, and shareholder servicing agent. FIIOC receives an asset-based fee with respect to each class. Each class (with the exception of Investor Class) pays a transfer agent fee, excluding out of pocket expenses, equal to an annual rate of .07% of average net assets. Investor Class pays a monthly asset-based transfer agent fee of .15% of average net assets. The total transfer agent fees paid by each class to FIIOC, including out of pocket expenses, were as follows:
Initial Class | $ 54,153 |
Service Class 2 | 40,435 |
Investor Class | 60,466 |
| $ 155,054 |
Accounting and Security Lending Fees. Fidelity Service Company, Inc. (FSC), an affiliate of FMR, maintains the Fund's accounting records. The accounting fee is based on the level of average net assets for the month. Under a separate contract, FSC administers the security lending program. The security lending fee is based on the number and duration of lending transactions.
Brokerage Commissions. The Fund placed a portion of its portfolio transactions with brokerage firms which are affiliates of the investment adviser. The commissions paid to these affiliated firms were $1,815 for the period.
6. Committed Line of Credit.
The Fund participates with other funds managed by FMR in a $3.5 billion credit facility (the "line of credit") to be utilized for temporary or emergency purposes to fund shareholder redemptions or for other short-term liquidity purposes. The Fund has agreed to pay commitment fees on its pro-rata portion of the line of credit, which amounted to $829 and is reflected in Miscellaneous Expense on the Statement of Operations. During the period, there were no borrowings on this line of credit.
7. Security Lending.
The Fund lends portfolio securities from time to time in order to earn additional income. On the settlement date of the loan, the Fund receives collateral (in the form of U.S. Treasury obligations, letters of credit and/or cash) against the loaned securities and maintains collateral in an amount not less than 100% of the market value of the loaned securities during the period of the loan. The market value of the loaned securities is determined at the close of business of the Fund and any additional required collateral is delivered to the Fund on the next business day. If the borrower defaults on its obligation to return the securities loaned because of insolvency or other reasons, a fund could experience delays and costs in recovering the securities loaned or in gaining access to the collateral. Any cash collateral received is invested in the Fidelity Securities Lending Cash Central Fund. The value of loaned securities and cash collateral at period end are disclosed on the Fund's Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Security lending income represents the income earned on investing cash collateral, less fees and expenses associated with the loan, plus any premium payments that may be received on the loan of certain types of securities. Security lending income is presented in the Statement of Operations as a component of income from Fidelity Central Funds. Net income from lending portfolio securities during the period amounted to $39,172.
8. Expense Reductions.
Many of the brokers with whom FMR places trades on behalf of the Fund provided services to the Fund in addition to trade execution. These services included payments of certain expenses on behalf of the Fund totaling $4,554 for the period.

11. Other.
The Fund's organizational documents provide former and current trustees and officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the Fund. In the normal course of business, the Fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against the Fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.
At the end of the period, FMR or its affiliates were the owners of record of 67% of the total outstanding shares of the Fund and one otherwise unaffiliated shareholder was the owner of record of 33% of the total outstanding shares of the Fund.

Semiannual Report
As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including redemption fees, and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (January 1, 2009 to June 30, 2009).
Actual Expenses
The first line of the accompanying table for each class of the Fund provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000.00 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000.00 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line for a class of the Fund under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. The estimate of expenses does not include any fees or other expenses of any variable annuity or variable life insurance product. If they were, the estimate of expenses you paid during the period would be higher, and your ending account value would be lower. In addition, the Fund, as a shareholder in the underlying Fidelity Central Funds, will indirectly bear its pro-rata share of the fees and expenses incurred by the underlying Fidelity Central Funds. These fees and expenses are not included in the Fund's annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimate in the table below.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The second line of the accompanying table for each class of the Fund provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on a Class' actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Class' actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. The estimate of expenses does not include any fees or other expenses of any variable annuity or variable life insurance product. If they were, the estimate of expenses you paid during the period would be higher, and your ending account value would be lower. In addition, the Fund, as a shareholder in the underlying Fidelity Central Funds, will indirectly bear its pro-rata share of the fees and expenses incurred by the underlying Fidelity Central Funds. These fees and expenses are not included in the Fund's annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimate in the table below.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transaction costs. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.
| Annualized Expense Ratio | Beginning Account Value January 1, 2009 | Ending Account Value June 30, 2009 | Expenses Paid During Period* January 1, 2009 to June 30, 2009 |
Initial Class | .72% | | | |

A 5% return per year before expenses
* Expenses are equal to each Class' annualized expense ratio, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 181/365 (to reflect the one-half year period).

Notes to Financial Statements
For the period ended June 30, 2009 (Unaudited)
1. Organization.
VIP Energy Portfolio (the Fund) is a non-diversified fund of Variable Insurance Products Fund IV (the trust) and is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares. The trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust. Shares of the Fund may only be purchased by insurance companies for the purpose of funding variable annuity or variable life insurance contracts. The Fund offers the following classes of shares: Initial Class shares, Service Class 2 shares and Investor Class shares. All classes have equal rights and voting privileges, except for matters affecting a single class. Investment income, realized and unrealized capital gains and losses, the common expenses of the Fund, and certain fund-level expense reductions, if any, are allocated on a pro-rata basis to each class based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of the Fund. Each class differs with respect to transfer agent and distribution and service plan fees incurred. Certain expense reductions also differ by class.
2. Investments in Fidelity Central Funds.
The Fund may invest in Fidelity Central Funds, which are open-end investment companies available only to other investment companies and accounts managed by Fidelity Management & Research Company (FMR) and its affiliates. The Fund's Schedule of Investments lists each of the Fidelity Central Funds held as of period end, if any, as an investment of the Fund, but does not include the underlying holdings of each Fidelity Central Fund. As an Investing Fund, the Fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of the expenses of the underlying Fidelity Central Funds.
The Money Market Central Funds seek preservation of capital and current income and are managed by Fidelity Investments Money Management, Inc. (FIMM), an affiliate of FMR.
A complete unaudited list of holdings for each Fidelity Central Fund is available upon request or at the SEC's web site at www.sec.gov. In addition, the financial statements of the Fidelity Central Funds are available on the SEC's web site or upon request.
3. Significant Accounting Policies.
The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which require management to make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Events or transactions occurring after period end through the date that the financial statements were issued, August 10, 2009, have been evaluated in the preparation of the financial statements. The following summarizes the significant accounting policies of the Fund:
Security Valuation. Investments are valued as of 4:00 p.m. Eastern time on the last calendar day of the period. The Fund uses independent pricing services approved by the Board of Trustees to value its investments. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) establishes a disclosure hierarchy that categorizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to value assets and liabilities at measurement date. These inputs are classified into three levels. Level 1 includes readily available unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 includes observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable either directly or indirectly. Level 3 includes unobservable inputs when market prices are not readily available or reliable. Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers in or out of an investment's assigned level within the hierarchy. The aggregate value by input level, as of June 30, 2009, for the Fund's investments is included at the end of the Fund's Schedule of Investments. Valuation techniques of the Fund's major categories of assets and liabilities as presented in the Schedule of Investments are as follows.
Equity securities, including restricted securities, for which market quotations are readily available, are valued at the last reported sale price or official closing price as reported by an independent pricing service on the primary market or exchange on which they are traded. In the event there were no sales during the day or closing prices are not available, securities are valued at the last quoted bid price. Debt securities, including restricted securities, are valued based on quotations received from dealers who make markets in such securities or by independent pricing services. For corporate bonds, pricing services generally utilize matrix pricing which considers yield or price of bonds of comparable quality, coupon, maturity and type as well as dealer supplied prices. Investments in open-end mutual funds, including the Fidelity Central Funds, are valued at their closing net asset value each business day. Short-term securities with remaining maturities of sixty days or less for which quotations are not readily available are valued at amortized cost, which approximates value.
When current market prices or quotations are not readily available or reliable, valuations may be determined in good faith in accordance with procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees. Factors used in determining value may include significant market or security specific events, changes in interest rates and credit quality, and developments in foreign markets which are monitored by evaluating the performance of ADRs, futures contracts and exchange-traded funds. The frequency with which these procedures are used cannot be predicted and may be utilized to a significant extent. The value of securities used for net asset value (NAV) calculation under these procedures may differ from published prices for the same securities.

3. Significant Accounting Policies - continued
Foreign Currency. The Fund uses foreign currency contracts to facilitate transactions in foreign-denominated securities. Losses from these transactions may arise from changes in the value of the foreign currency or if the counterparties do not perform under the contracts' terms.
Foreign-denominated assets, including investment securities, and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate at period end. Purchases and sales of investment securities, income and dividends received and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate in effect on the transaction date.
The effects of exchange rate fluctuations on investments are included with the net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investment securities. Other foreign currency transactions resulting in realized and unrealized gain (loss) are disclosed separately.
Investment Transactions and Income. For financial reporting purposes, the Fund's investment holdings and NAV include trades executed through the end of the last business day of the period. The NAV per share for processing shareholder transactions is calculated as of the close of business of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time and includes trades executed through the end of the prior business day. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost and may include proceeds received from litigation. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except for certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Distributions received on securities that represent a return of capital or capital gain are recorded as a reduction of cost of investments and/or as a realized gain. The Fund estimates the components of distributions received that may be considered return of capital distributions or capital gain distributions. Interest income and distributions from the Fidelity Central Funds are accrued as earned. Interest income includes coupon interest and amortization of premium and accretion of discount on debt securities. Investment income is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery of such taxes is uncertain.
Expenses. Most expenses of the trust can be directly attributed to a fund. Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned among each Fund in the trust. Expense estimates are accrued in the period to which they relate and adjustments are made when actual amounts are known.
Income Tax Information and Distributions to Shareholders. Each year, the Fund intends to qualify as a regulated investment company by distributing substantially all of its taxable income and realized gains under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code and filing its U.S. federal tax return. As a result, no provision for income taxes is required. The Fund is subject to the provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainties in Income Taxes (FIN 48). FIN 48 sets forth a minimum threshold for financial statement recognition of the benefit of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. There are no unrecognized tax benefits in the accompanying financial statements. A Fund's federal tax return is subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for a period of three years. Foreign taxes are provided for based on the Fund's understanding of the tax rules and rates that exist in the foreign markets in which it invests.
Distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income dividends and capital gain distributions are declared separately for each class. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles.
Capital accounts within the financial statements are adjusted for permanent book-tax differences. These adjustments have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. Temporary book-tax differences will reverse in a subsequent period.
Book-tax differences are primarily due to foreign currency transactions, partnerships and losses deferred due to wash sales and excise tax regulations.
The federal tax cost of investments and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) as of period end were as follows:
Unrealized appreciation | $ 40,923,767 |
Unrealized depreciation | (106,936,772) |
Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) | $ (66,013,005) |
Cost for federal income tax purposes | $ 380,442,027 |
Trading (Redemption) Fees. Shares held less than 60 days are subject to a redemption fee equal to 1% of the proceeds of the redeemed shares. All redemption fees, including any estimated redemption fees paid by FMR, are retained by the Fund and accounted for as an addition to paid in capital.
4. Purchases and Sales of Investments.
Purchases and sales of securities, other than short-term securities, aggregated $192,824,547 and $181,957,646, respectively.

5. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates.
Management Fee. FMR and its affiliates provide the Fund with investment management related services for which the Fund pays a monthly management fee. The management fee is the sum of an individual fund fee rate that is based on an annual rate of .30% of the Fund's average net assets and a group fee rate that averaged .27% during the period. The group fee rate is based upon the average net assets of all the mutual funds advised by FMR. The group fee rate decreases as assets under management increase and increases as assets under management decrease. For the period, the total annualized management fee rate was .56% of the Fund's average net assets.
Distribution and Service Plan. In accordance with Rule 12b-1 of the 1940 Act, the Fund has adopted a separate 12b-1 Plan for Service Class 2 shares. Service Class 2 pays Fidelity Distributors Corporation (FDC), an affiliate of FMR, a service fee. For the period, the service fee is based on an annual rate of .25% of Service Class 2's average net assets.
For the period, Service Class 2 paid FDC $120,411, all of which was re-allowed to insurance companies for the distribution of shares and providing shareholder support services.
Transfer Agent Fees. Fidelity Investments Institutional Operations Company, Inc. (FIIOC), an affiliate of FMR, is the Fund's transfer, dividend disbursing, and shareholder servicing agent. FIIOC receives an asset-based fee with respect to each class. Each class (with the exception of Investor Class) pays a transfer agent fee, excluding out of pocket expenses, equal to an annual rate of .07% of average net assets. Investor Class pays a monthly asset-based transfer agent fee of .15% of average net assets. The total transfer agent fees paid by each class to FIIOC, including out of pocket expenses, were as follows:
Initial Class | $ 54,153 |
Service Class 2 | 40,435 |
Investor Class | 60,466 |
| $ 155,054 |
Accounting and Security Lending Fees. Fidelity Service Company, Inc. (FSC), an affiliate of FMR, maintains the Fund's accounting records. The accounting fee is based on the level of average net assets for the month. Under a separate contract, FSC administers the security lending program. The security lending fee is based on the number and duration of lending transactions.
Brokerage Commissions. The Fund placed a portion of its portfolio transactions with brokerage firms which are affiliates of the investment adviser. The commissions paid to these affiliated firms were $1,815 for the period.
6. Committed Line of Credit.
The Fund participates with other funds managed by FMR in a $3.5 billion credit facility (the "line of credit") to be utilized for temporary or emergency purposes to fund shareholder redemptions or for other short-term liquidity purposes. The Fund has agreed to pay commitment fees on its pro-rata portion of the line of credit, which amounted to $829 and is reflected in Miscellaneous Expense on the Statement of Operations. During the period, there were no borrowings on this line of credit.
7. Security Lending.
The Fund lends portfolio securities from time to time in order to earn additional income. On the settlement date of the loan, the Fund receives collateral (in the form of U.S. Treasury obligations, letters of credit and/or cash) against the loaned securities and maintains collateral in an amount not less than 100% of the market value of the loaned securities during the period of the loan. The market value of the loaned securities is determined at the close of business of the Fund and any additional required collateral is delivered to the Fund on the next business day. If the borrower defaults on its obligation to return the securities loaned because of insolvency or other reasons, a fund could experience delays and costs in recovering the securities loaned or in gaining access to the collateral. Any cash collateral received is invested in the Fidelity Securities Lending Cash Central Fund. The value of loaned securities and cash collateral at period end are disclosed on the Fund's Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Security lending income represents the income earned on investing cash collateral, less fees and expenses associated with the loan, plus any premium payments that may be received on the loan of certain types of securities. Security lending income is presented in the Statement of Operations as a component of income from Fidelity Central Funds. Net income from lending portfolio securities during the period amounted to $39,172.
8. Expense Reductions.
Many of the brokers with whom FMR places trades on behalf of the Fund provided services to the Fund in addition to trade execution. These services included payments of certain expenses on behalf of the Fund totaling $4,554 for the period.

11. Other.
The Fund's organizational documents provide former and current trustees and officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the Fund. In the normal course of business, the Fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against the Fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.
At the end of the period, FMR or its affiliates were the owners of record of 67% of the total outstanding shares of the Fund and one otherwise unaffiliated shareholder was the owner of record of 33% of the total outstanding shares of the Fund.

As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (January 1, 2009 to June 30, 2009).
Actual Expenses
The first line of the accompanying table for each class of the Fund provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000.00 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000.00 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line for a class of the Fund under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. The estimate of expenses does not include any fees or other expenses of any variable annuity or variable life insurance product. If they were, the estimate of expenses you paid during the period would be higher, and your ending account value would be lower. In addition, the Fund, as a shareholder in the underlying Fidelity Central Funds, will indirectly bear its pro-rata share of the fees and expenses incurred by the underlying Fidelity Central Funds. These fees and expenses are not included in the Fund's annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimate in the table below.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The second line of the accompanying table for each class of the Fund provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on a Class' actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Class' actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. The estimate of expenses does not include any fees or other expenses of any variable annuity or variable life insurance product. If they were, the estimate of expenses you paid during the period would be higher, and your ending account value would be lower. In addition, the Fund, as a shareholder in the underlying Fidelity Central Funds, will indirectly bear its pro-rata share of the fees and expenses incurred by the underlying Fidelity Central Funds. These fees and expenses are not included in the Fund's annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimate in the table below.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transaction costs. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds.
| Annualized Expense Ratio | Beginning Account Value January 1, 2009 | Ending Account Value June 30, 2009 | Expenses Paid During Period* January 1, 2009 to June 30, 2009 |

Semiannual Report
Notes to Financial Statements
For the period ended June 30, 2009 (Unaudited)
1. Organization.
VIP Growth Stock Portfolio (the Fund) is a fund of Variable Insurance Products Fund IV (the trust) and is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares. The trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust. Shares of the Fund may only be purchased by insurance companies for the purpose of funding variable annuity or variable life insurance contracts. The Fund offers the following classes of shares: Initial Class shares, Service Class shares, Service Class 2 shares, and Investor Class shares. All classes have equal rights and voting privileges, except for matters affecting a single class. Investment income, realized and unrealized capital gains and losses, the common expenses of the Fund, and certain fund-level expense reductions, if any, are allocated on a pro-rata basis to each class based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of the Fund. Each class differs with respect to transfer agent and distribution and service plan fees incurred. Certain expense reductions also differ by class.
2. Investments in Fidelity Central Funds.
The Fund may invest in Fidelity Central Funds, which are open-end investment companies available only to other investment companies and accounts managed by Fidelity Management & Research Company (FMR) and its affiliates. The Fund's Schedule of Investments lists each of the Fidelity Central Funds held as of period end, if any, as an investment of the Fund, but does not include the underlying holdings of each Fidelity Central Fund. As an Investing Fund, the Fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of the expenses of the underlying Fidelity Central Funds.
The Money Market Central Funds seek preservation of capital and current income and are managed by Fidelity Investments Money Management, Inc. (FIMM), an affiliate of FMR.
A complete unaudited list of holdings for each Fidelity Central Fund is available upon request or at the SEC's web site at www.sec.gov. In addition, the financial statements of the Fidelity Central Funds are available on the SEC's web site or upon request.
3. Significant Accounting Policies.
The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which require management to make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Events or transactions occurring after period end through the date that the financial statements were issued, August 13, 2009, have been evaluated in the preparation of the financial statements. The following summarizes the significant accounting policies of the Fund:
Security Valuation. Investments are valued as of 4:00 p.m. Eastern time on the last calendar day of the period. The Fund uses independent pricing services approved by the Board of Trustees to value its investments. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) establishes a disclosure hierarchy that categorizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to value assets and liabilities at measurement date. These inputs are classified into three levels. Level 1 includes readily available unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 includes observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable either directly or indirectly. Level 3 includes unobservable inputs when market prices are not readily available or reliable. Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers in or out of an investment's assigned level within the hierarchy. The aggregate value by input level, as of June 30, 2009, for the Fund's investments, as well as a reconciliation of assets and liabilities for which significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) were used in determining value, is included at the end of the Fund's Schedule of Investments. Valuation techniques of the Fund's major categories of assets and liabilities as presented in the Schedule of Investments are as follows.
Equity securities, including restricted securities, for which market quotations are readily available, are valued at the last reported sale price or official closing price as reported by an independent pricing service on the primary market or exchange on which they are traded. In the event there were no sales during the day or closing prices are not available, securities are valued at the last quoted bid price. Investments in open-end mutual funds, including the Fidelity Central Funds, are valued at their closing net asset value each business day. Short-term securities with remaining maturities of sixty days or less for which quotations are not readily available are valued at amortized cost, which approximates value.
When current market prices or quotations are not readily available or reliable, valuations may be determined in good faith in accordance with procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees. Factors used in determining value may include significant market or security specific events, changes in interest rates and credit quality, and developments in foreign markets which are monitored by evaluating the performance of ADRs, futures contracts and exchange-traded funds. The frequency with which these procedures are used cannot be predicted and may be utilized to a significant extent. The value of securities used for net asset value (NAV) calculation under these procedures may differ from published prices for the same securities.
Foreign Currency. The Fund uses foreign currency contracts to facilitate transactions in foreign-denominated securities. Losses from these transactions may arise from changes in the value of the foreign currency or if the counterparties do not perform under the contracts' terms.
Foreign-denominated assets, including investment securities, and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate at period end. Purchases and sales of investment securities, income and dividends received and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate in effect on the transaction date.
Semiannual Report
3. Significant Accounting Policies - continued
Foreign Currency - continued
The effects of exchange rate fluctuations on investments are included with the net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investment securities. Other foreign currency transactions resulting in realized and unrealized gain (loss) are disclosed separately.
Investment Transactions and Income. For financial reporting purposes, the Fund's investment holdings and NAV include trades executed through the end of the last business day of the period. The NAV per share for processing shareholder transactions is calculated as of the close of business of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time and includes trades executed through the end of the prior business day. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost and may include proceeds received from litigation. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except for certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Distributions received on securities that represent a return of capital or capital gain are recorded as a reduction of cost of investments and/or as a realized gain. The Fund estimates the components of distributions received that may be considered return of capital distributions or capital gain distributions. Interest income and distributions from the Fidelity Central Funds are accrued as earned. Interest income includes coupon interest and amortization of premium and accretion of discount on debt securities. Investment income is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery of such taxes is uncertain.
Expenses. Most expenses of the trust can be directly attributed to a fund. Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned among each Fund in the trust. Expense estimates are accrued in the period to which they relate and adjustments are made when actual amounts are known.
Income Tax Information and Distributions to Shareholders. Each year, the Fund intends to qualify as a regulated investment company by distributing substantially all of its taxable income and realized gains under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code and filing its U.S. federal tax return. As a result, no provision for income taxes is required. The Fund is subject to the provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainties in Income Taxes (FIN 48). FIN 48 sets forth a minimum threshold for financial statement recognition of the benefit of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. There are no unrecognized tax benefits in the accompanying financial statements. A Fund's federal tax return is subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for a period of three years. Foreign taxes are provided for based on the Fund's understanding of the tax rules and rates that exist in the foreign markets in which it invests.
Distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income dividends and capital gain distributions are declared separately for each class. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles.
Capital accounts within the financial statements are adjusted for permanent book-tax differences. These adjustments have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. Temporary book-tax differences will reverse in a subsequent period.
Book-tax differences are primarily due to foreign currency transactions, certain foreign taxes, capital loss carryforwards and losses deferred due to wash sales and excise tax regulations.
The federal tax cost of investments and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) as of period end were as follows:
Unrealized appreciation | $ 1,035,058 |
Unrealized depreciation | (1,586,777) |
Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) | $ (551,719) |
Cost for federal income tax purposes | $ 12,523,772 |
4. Operating Policies.
Repurchase Agreements. FMR has received an Exemptive Order from the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) which permits the Fund and other affiliated entities of FMR to transfer uninvested cash balances into joint trading accounts which are then invested in repurchase agreements. The Fund may also invest directly with institutions in repurchase agreements. Repurchase agreements are collateralized by government or non-government securities. Upon settlement date, collateral is held in segregated accounts with custodian banks and may be obtained in the event of a default of the counterparty. The Fund monitors, on a daily basis, the value of the collateral to ensure it is at least equal to the principal amount of the repurchase agreement (including accrued interest). In the event of a default by the counterparty, realization of the collateral proceeds could be delayed, during which time the value of the collateral may decline.
5. Purchases and Sales of Investments.
Purchases and sales of securities, other than short-term securities, aggregated $11,315,878 and $10,904,180, respectively.

6. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates.
Management Fee. FMR and its affiliates provide the Fund with investment management related services for which the Fund pays a monthly management fee. The management fee is the sum of an individual fund fee rate that is based on an annual rate of .30% of the Fund's average net assets and a group fee rate that averaged .27% during the period. The group fee rate is based upon the average net assets of all the mutual funds advised by FMR. The group fee rate decreases as assets under management increase and increases as assets under management decrease. For the period, the total annualized management fee rate was .56% of the Fund's average net assets.
Distribution and Service Plan. In accordance with Rule 12b-1 of the 1940 Act, the Fund has adopted separate 12b-1 Plans for each Service Class of shares. Each Service Class pays Fidelity Distributors Corporation (FDC), an affiliate of FMR, a service fee. For the period, the service fee is based on an annual rate of .10% of Service Class' average net assets and .25% of Service Class 2's average net assets.
For the period, each class paid FDC the following amounts, all of which were re-allowed to insurance companies for the distribution of shares and providing shareholder support services:
Service Class | $ 456 |
Service Class 2 | 2,417 |
| $ 2,873 |
Transfer Agent Fees. Fidelity Investments Institutional Operations Company, Inc. (FIIOC), an affiliate of FMR, is the Fund's transfer, dividend disbursing, and shareholder servicing agent. FIIOC receives an asset-based fee with respect to each class. Each class (with the exception of Investor Class) pays a transfer agent fee, excluding out of pocket expenses, equal to an annual rate of .07% of average net assets. Investor Class pays a monthly asset-based transfer agent fee of .15% of average net assets. The total transfer agent fees paid by each class to FIIOC, including out of pocket expenses, were as follows:
Initial Class | $ 2,918 |
Service Class | 443 |
Service Class 2 | 1,879 |
Investor Class | 5,524 |
| $ 10,764 |
Accounting and Security Lending Fees. Fidelity Service Company, Inc. (FSC), an affiliate of FMR, maintains the Fund's accounting records. The accounting fee is based on the level of average net assets for the month. Under a separate contract, FSC administers the security lending program. The security lending fee is based on the number and duration of lending transactions.
Brokerage Commissions. The Fund placed a portion of its portfolio transactions with brokerage firms which are affiliates of the investment adviser. The commissions paid to these affiliated firms were $784 for the period.
7. Committed Line of Credit.
The Fund participates with other funds managed by FMR in a $3.5 billion credit facility (the "line of credit") to be utilized for temporary or emergency purposes to fund shareholder redemptions or for other short-term liquidity purposes. The Fund has agreed to pay commitment fees on its pro-rata portion of the line of credit, which amounted to $33 and is reflected in Miscellaneous Expense on the Statement of Operations. During the period, there were no borrowings on this line of credit.
8. Security Lending.
The Fund lends portfolio securities from time to time in order to earn additional income. On the settlement date of the loan, the Fund receives collateral (in the form of U.S. Treasury obligations, letters of credit and/or cash) against the loaned securities and maintains collateral in an amount not less than 100% of the market value of the loaned securities during the period of the loan. The market value of the loaned securities is determined at the close of business of the Fund and any additional required collateral is delivered to the Fund on the next business day. If the borrower defaults on its obligation to return the securities loaned because of insolvency or other reasons, a fund could experience delays and costs in recovering the securities loaned or in gaining access to the collateral. Any cash collateral received is invested in the Fidelity Securities Lending Cash Central Fund. The value of loaned securities and cash collateral at period end are disclosed on the Fund's Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Security lending income represents the income earned on investing cash collateral, less fees and expenses associated with the loan, plus any premium payments that may be received on the loan of certain types of securities. Security lending income is presented in the Statement of Operations as a component of income from Fidelity Central Funds. Net income from lending portfolio securities during the period amounted to $1,148.

12. Other.
The Fund's organizational documents provide former and current trustees and officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the Fund. In the normal course of business, the Fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against the Fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.
At the end of the period, FMR or its affiliates were the owners of record of 89% of the total outstanding shares of the Fund and one otherwise unaffiliated shareholder was the owner of record of 11% of the total outstanding shares of the Fund.

Semiannual Report
As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including redemption fees, and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (January 1, 2009 to June 30, 2009).
Actual Expenses
The first line of the accompanying table for each class of the Fund provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000.00 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000.00 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line for a class of the Fund under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. The estimate of expenses does not include any fees or other expenses of any variable annuity or variable life insurance product. If they were, the estimate of expenses you paid during the period would be higher, and your ending account value would be lower. In addition, the Fund, as a shareholder in the underlying Fidelity Central Funds, will indirectly bear its pro-rata share of the fees and expenses incurred by the underlying Fidelity Central Funds. These fees and expenses are not included in the Fund's annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimate in the table below.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The second line of the accompanying table for each class of the Fund provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on a Class' actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Class' actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. The estimate of expenses does not include any fees or other expenses of any variable annuity or variable life insurance product. If they were, the estimate of expenses you paid during the period would be higher, and your ending account value would be lower. In addition, the Fund, as a shareholder in the underlying Fidelity Central Funds, will indirectly bear its pro-rata share of the fees and expenses incurred by the underlying Fidelity Central Funds. These fees and expenses are not included in the Fund's annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimate in the table below.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transaction costs. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.
| Annualized Expense Ratio | Beginning Account Value January 1, 2009 | Ending Account Value June 30, 2009 | Expenses Paid During Period* January 1, 2009 to June 30, 2009 |
Initial Class | .86% | | | |
Actual | | $ 1,000.00 | $ 1,104.30 | $ 4.49 |
HypotheticalA | | $ 1,000.00 | $ 1,020.53 | $ 4.31 |
Investor Class | .97% | | | |
Actual | | $ 1,000.00 | $ 1,103.30 | $ 5.06 |
HypotheticalA | | $ 1,000.00 | $ 1,019.98 | $ 4.86 |
A 5% return per year before expenses
* Expenses are equal to each Class' annualized expense ratio, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 181/365 (to reflect the one-half year period).

Semiannual Report
Notes to Financial Statements
For the period ended June 30, 2009 (Unaudited)
1. Organization.
VIP Health Care Portfolio (the Fund) is a non-diversified fund of Variable Insurance Products Fund IV (the trust) and is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares. The trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust. Shares of the Fund may only be purchased by insurance companies for the purpose of funding variable annuity or variable life insurance contracts. The Fund offers the following classes of shares: Initial Class shares and Investor Class shares. All classes have equal rights and voting privileges, except for matters affecting a single class. Investment income, realized and unrealized capital gains and losses, the common expenses of the Fund, and certain fund-level expense reductions, if any, are allocated on a pro-rata basis to each class based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of the Fund. Each class differs with respect to transfer agent fees incurred. Certain expense reductions also differ by class.
2. Investments in Fidelity Central Funds.
The Fund may invest in Fidelity Central Funds, which are open-end investment companies available only to other investment companies and accounts managed by Fidelity Management & Research Company (FMR) and its affiliates. The Fund's Schedule of Investments lists each of the Fidelity Central Funds held as of period end, if any, as an investment of the Fund, but does not include the underlying holdings of each Fidelity Central Fund. As an Investing Fund, the Fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of the expenses of the underlying Fidelity Central Funds.
The Money Market Central Funds seek preservation of capital and current income and are managed by Fidelity Investments Money Management, Inc. (FIMM), an affiliate of FMR.
A complete unaudited list of holdings for each Fidelity Central Fund is available upon request or at the SEC's web site at www.sec.gov. In addition, the financial statements of the Fidelity Central Funds are available on the SEC's web site or upon request.
3. Significant Accounting Policies.
The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which require management to make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Events or transactions occurring after period end through the date that the financial statements were issued, August 13, 2009, have been evaluated in the preparation of the financial statements. The following summarizes the significant accounting policies of the Fund:
Security Valuation. Investments are valued as of 4:00 p.m. Eastern time on the last calendar day of the period. The Fund uses independent pricing services approved by the Board of Trustees to value its investments. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) establishes a disclosure hierarchy that categorizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to value assets and liabilities at measurement date. These inputs are classified into three levels. Level 1 includes readily available unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 includes observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable either directly or indirectly. Level 3 includes unobservable inputs when market prices are not readily available or reliable. Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers in or out of an investment's assigned level within the hierarchy. The aggregate value by input level, as of June 30, 2009, for the Fund's investments is included at the end of the Fund's Schedule of Investments. Valuation techniques of the Fund's major categories of assets and liabilities as presented in the Schedule of Investments are as follows.
Equity securities, including restricted securities, for which market quotations are readily available, are valued at the last reported sale price or official closing price as reported by an independent pricing service on the primary market or exchange on which they are traded. In the event there were no sales during the day or closing prices are not available, securities are valued at the last quoted bid price. Debt securities, including restricted securities, are valued based on quotations received from dealers who make markets in such securities or by independent pricing services. For corporate bonds pricing services generally utilize matrix pricing which considers yield or price of bonds of comparable quality, coupon, maturity and type as well as dealer supplied prices. Investments in open-end mutual funds, including the Fidelity Central Funds, are valued at their closing net asset value each business day. Short-term securities with remaining maturities of sixty days or less for which quotations are not readily available are valued at amortized cost, which approximates value.
When current market prices or quotations are not readily available or reliable, valuations may be determined in good faith in accordance with procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees. Factors used in determining value may include significant market or security specific events, changes in interest rates and credit quality, and developments in foreign markets which are monitored by evaluating the performance of ADRs, futures contracts and exchange-traded funds. The frequency with which these procedures are used cannot be predicted and may be utilized to a significant extent. The value of securities used for net asset value (NAV) calculation under these procedures may differ from published prices for the same securities.
Foreign Currency. The Fund uses foreign currency contracts to facilitate transactions in foreign-denominated securities. Losses from these transactions may arise from changes in the value of the foreign currency or if the counterparties do not perform under the contracts' terms.
Semiannual Report
3. Significant Accounting Policies - continued
Foreign Currency - continued
Foreign-denominated assets, including investment securities, and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate at period end. Purchases and sales of investment securities, income and dividends received and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate in effect on the transaction date.
The effects of exchange rate fluctuations on investments are included with the net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investment securities. Other foreign currency transactions resulting in realized and unrealized gain (loss) are disclosed separately.
Investment Transactions and Income. For financial reporting purposes, the Fund's investment holdings and NAV include trades executed through the end of the last business day of the period. The NAV per share for processing shareholder transactions is calculated as of the close of business of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time and includes trades executed through the end of the prior business day. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost and may include proceeds received from litigation. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except for certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Distributions received on securities that represent a return of capital or capital gain are recorded as a reduction of cost of investments and/or as a realized gain. The Fund estimates the components of distributions received that may be considered return of capital distributions or capital gain distributions. Interest income and distributions from the Fidelity Central Funds are accrued as earned. Interest income includes coupon interest and amortization of premium and accretion of discount on debt securities. Investment income is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery of such taxes is uncertain.
Expenses. Most expenses of the trust can be directly attributed to a fund. Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned among each Fund in the trust. Expense estimates are accrued in the period to which they relate and adjustments are made when actual amounts are known.
Income Tax Information and Distributions to Shareholders. Each year, the Fund intends to qualify as a regulated investment company by distributing substantially all of its taxable income and realized gains under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code and filing its U.S. federal tax return. As a result, no provision for income taxes is required. The Fund is subject to the provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainties in Income Taxes (FIN 48). FIN 48 sets forth a minimum threshold for financial statement recognition of the benefit of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. There are no unrecognized tax benefits in the accompanying financial statements. A Fund's federal tax return is subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for a period of three years. Foreign taxes are provided for based on the Fund's understanding of the tax rules and rates that exist in the foreign markets in which it invests.
Distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income dividends and capital gain distributions are declared separately for each class. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles.
Capital accounts within the financial statements are adjusted for permanent book-tax differences. These adjustments have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. Temporary book-tax differences will reverse in a subsequent period.
Book-tax differences are primarily due to foreign currency transactions, certain foreign taxes, market discount, partnerships, capital loss carryforwards and losses deferred due to wash sales and excise tax regulations.
The federal tax cost of investments and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) as of period end were as follows:
Unrealized appreciation | $ 5,379,915 |
Unrealized depreciation | (6,474,973) |
Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) | $ (1,095,058) |
Cost for federal income tax purposes | $ 57,921,670 |
Trading (Redemption) Fees. Shares held less than 60 days are subject to a redemption fee equal to 1% of the proceeds of the redeemed shares. All redemption fees, including any estimated redemption fees paid by FMR, are retained by the Fund and accounted for as an addition to paid in capital.
4. Operating Policies.
Restricted Securities. The Fund may invest in securities that are subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale. These securities generally may be resold in transactions exempt from registration or to the public if the securities are registered. Disposal of these securities may involve time-consuming negotiations and expense, and prompt sale at an acceptable price may be difficult. Information regarding restricted securities is included at the end of the Fund's Schedule of Investments.

5. Purchases and Sales of Investments.
Purchases and sales of securities, other than short-term securities, aggregated $48,092,346 and $55,188,545, respectively.
6. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates.
Management Fee. FMR and its affiliates provide the Fund with investment management related services for which the Fund pays a monthly management fee. The management fee is the sum of an individual fund fee rate that is based on an annual rate of .30% of the Fund's average net assets and a group fee rate that averaged .27% during the period. The group fee rate is based upon the average net assets of all the mutual funds advised by FMR. The group fee rate decreases as assets under management increase and increases as assets under management decrease. For the period, the total annualized management fee rate was .57% of the Fund's average net assets.
Transfer Agent Fees. Fidelity Investments Institutional Operations Company, Inc. (FIIOC), an affiliate of FMR, is the Fund's transfer, dividend disbursing, and shareholder servicing agent. FIIOC receives an asset-based fee with respect to each class. Each class (with the exception of Investor Class) pays a transfer agent fee, excluding out of pocket expenses, equal to an annual rate of .07% of average net assets. Investor Class pays a monthly asset-based transfer agent fee of .15% of average net assets. The total transfer agent fees paid by each class to FIIOC, including out of pocket expenses, were as follows:
Initial Class | $ 16,971 |
Investor Class | 22,362 |
| $ 39,333 |
Accounting and Security Lending Fees. Fidelity Service Company, Inc. (FSC), an affiliate of FMR, maintains the Fund's accounting records. The accounting fee is based on the level of average net assets for the month. Under a separate contract, FSC administers the security lending program. The security lending fee is based on the number and duration of lending transactions.
Brokerage Commissions. The Fund placed a portion of its portfolio transactions with brokerage firms which are affiliates of the investment adviser. The commissions paid to these affiliated firms were $1,165 for the period.
7. Committed Line of Credit.
The Fund participates with other funds managed by FMR in a $3.5 billion credit facility (the "line of credit") to be utilized for temporary or emergency purposes to fund shareholder redemptions or for other short-term liquidity purposes. The Fund has agreed to pay commitment fees on its pro-rata portion of the line of credit, which amounted to $182 and is reflected in Miscellaneous Expense on the Statement of Operations. During the period, there were no borrowings on this line of credit.
8. Security Lending.
The Fund lends portfolio securities from time to time in order to earn additional income. On the settlement date of the loan, the Fund receives collateral (in the form of U.S. Treasury obligations, letters of credit and/or cash) against the loaned securities and maintains collateral in an amount not less than 100% of the market value of the loaned securities during the period of the loan. The market value of the loaned securities is determined at the close of business of the Fund and any additional required collateral is delivered to the Fund on the next business day. If the borrower defaults on its obligation to return the securities loaned because of insolvency or other reasons, a fund could experience delays and costs in recovering the securities loaned or in gaining access to the collateral. Any cash collateral received is invested in the Fidelity Securities Lending Cash Central Fund. The value of loaned securities and cash collateral at period end are disclosed on the Fund's Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Security lending income represents the income earned on investing cash collateral, less fees and expenses associated with the loan, plus any premium payments that may be received on the loan of certain types of securities. Security lending income is presented in the Statement of Operations as a component of income from Fidelity Central Funds. Net income from lending portfolio securities during the period amounted to $11,177.
9. Expense Reductions.
Many of the brokers with whom FMR places trades on behalf of the Fund provided services to the Fund in addition to trade execution. These services included payments of certain expenses on behalf of the Fund totaling $287 for the period.

12. Other.
The Fund's organizational documents provide former and current trustees and officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the Fund. In the normal course of business, the Fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against the Fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.
At the end of the period, FMR or its affiliates were the owners of record of 100% of the total outstanding shares of the Fund.

NOT FDIC INSURED · MAY LOSE VALUE · NO BANK GUARANTEE
Neither the fund nor Fidelity Distributors Corporation is a bank.
Semiannual Report
As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including redemption fees, and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (January 1, 2009 to June 30, 2009).
Actual Expenses
The first line of the accompanying table for each class of the Fund provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000.00 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000.00 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line for a class of the Fund under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. The estimate of expenses does not include any fees or other expenses of any variable annuity or variable life insurance product. If they were, the estimate of expenses you paid during the period would be higher, and your ending account value would be lower. In addition, the Fund, as a shareholder in the underlying Fidelity Central Funds, will indirectly bear its pro-rata share of the fees and expenses incurred by the underlying Fidelity Central Funds. These fees and expenses are not included in the Fund's annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimate in the table below.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The second line of the accompanying table for each class of the Fund provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on a Class' actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Class' actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. The estimate of expenses does not include any fees or other expenses of any variable annuity or variable life insurance product. If they were, the estimate of expenses you paid during the period would be higher, and your ending account value would be lower. In addition, the Fund, as a shareholder in the underlying Fidelity Central Funds, will indirectly bear its pro-rata share of the fees and expenses incurred by the underlying Fidelity Central Funds. These fees and expenses are not included in the Fund's annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimate in the table below.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transaction costs. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

Notes to Financial Statements
For the period ended June 30, 2009 (Unaudited)
1. Organization.
VIP Industrials Portfolio (the Fund) is a non-diversified fund of Variable Insurance Products Fund IV (the trust) and is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares. The trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust. Shares of the Fund may only be purchased by insurance companies for the purpose of funding variable annuity or variable life insurance contracts. The Fund offers the following classes of shares: Initial Class shares and Investor Class shares. All classes have equal rights and voting privileges, except for matters affecting a single class. Investment income, realized and unrealized capital gains and losses, the common expenses of the Fund, and certain fund-level expense reductions, if any, are allocated on a pro-rata basis to each class based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of the Fund. Each class differs with respect to transfer agent fees incurred. Certain expense reductions also differ by class.
2. Investments in Fidelity Central Funds.
The Fund may invest in Fidelity Central Funds, which are open-end investment companies available only to other investment companies and accounts managed by Fidelity Management & Research Company (FMR) and its affiliates. The Fund's Schedule of Investments lists each of the Fidelity Central Funds held as of period end, if any, as an investment of the Fund, but does not include the underlying holdings of each Fidelity Central Fund. As an Investing Fund, the Fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of the expenses of the underlying Fidelity Central Funds.
The Money Market Central Funds seek preservation of capital and current income and are managed by Fidelity Investments Money Management, Inc. (FIMM), an affiliate of FMR.
A complete unaudited list of holdings for each Fidelity Central Fund is available upon request or at the SEC's web site at www.sec.gov. In addition, the financial statements of the Fidelity Central Funds are available on the SEC's web site or upon request.
3. Significant Accounting Policies.
The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which require management to make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Events or transactions occurring after period end through the date that the financial statements were issued, August 13, 2009, have been evaluated in the preparation of the financial statements. The following summarizes the significant accounting policies of the Fund:
Security Valuation. Investments are valued as of 4:00 p.m. Eastern time on the last calendar day of the period. The Fund uses independent pricing services approved by the Board of Trustees to value its investments. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) establishes a disclosure hierarchy that categorizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to value assets and liabilities at measurement date. These inputs are classified into three levels. Level 1 includes readily available unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 includes observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable either directly or indirectly. Level 3 includes unobservable inputs when market prices are not readily available or reliable. Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers in or out of an investment's assigned level within the hierarchy. The aggregate value by input level, as of June 30, 2009, for the Fund's investments, as well as a reconciliation of assets and liabilities for which significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) were used in determining value, is included at the end of the Fund's Schedule of Investments. Valuation techniques of the Fund's major categories of assets and liabilities as presented in the Schedule of Investments are as follows.
Equity securities, including restricted securities, for which market quotations are readily available, are valued at the last reported sale price or official closing price as reported by an independent pricing service on the primary market or exchange on which they are traded. In the event there were no sales during the day or closing prices are not available, securities are valued at the last quoted bid price. Debt securities, including restricted securities, are valued based on quotations received from dealers who make markets in such securities or by independent pricing services. For corporate bonds pricing services generally utilize matrix pricing which considers yield or price of bonds of comparable quality, coupon, maturity and type as well as dealer supplied prices. Investments in open-end mutual funds, including the Fidelity Central Funds, are valued at their closing net asset value each business day. Short-term securities with remaining maturities of sixty days or less for which quotations are not readily available are valued at amortized cost, which approximates value.
When current market prices or quotations are not readily available or reliable, valuations may be determined in good faith in accordance with procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees. Factors used in determining value may include significant market or security specific events, changes in interest rates and credit quality, and developments in foreign markets which are monitored by evaluating the performance of ADRs, futures contracts and exchange-traded funds. The frequency with which these procedures are used cannot be predicted and may be utilized to a significant extent. The value of securities used for net asset value (NAV) calculation under these procedures may differ from published prices for the same securities.
Foreign Currency. The Fund uses foreign currency contracts to facilitate transactions in foreign-denominated securities. Losses from these transactions may arise from changes in the value of the foreign currency or if the counterparties do not perform under the contracts' terms.

3. Significant Accounting Policies - continued
Foreign Currency - continued
Foreign-denominated assets, including investment securities, and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate at period end. Purchases and sales of investment securities, income and dividends received and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate in effect on the transaction date.
The effects of exchange rate fluctuations on investments are included with the net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investment securities. Other foreign currency transactions resulting in realized and unrealized gain (loss) are disclosed separately.
Investment Transactions and Income. For financial reporting purposes, the Fund's investment holdings and NAV include trades executed through the end of the last business day of the period. The NAV per share for processing shareholder transactions is calculated as of the close of business of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time and includes trades executed through the end of the prior business day. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost and may include proceeds received from litigation. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except for certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Distributions received on securities that represent a return of capital or capital gain are recorded as a reduction of cost of investments and/or as a realized gain. The Fund estimates the components of distributions received that may be considered return of capital distributions or capital gain distributions. Interest income and distributions from the Fidelity Central Funds are accrued as earned. Interest income includes coupon interest and amortization of premium and accretion of discount on debt securities. Investment income is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery of such taxes is uncertain.
Expenses. Most expenses of the trust can be directly attributed to a fund. Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned among each Fund in the trust. Expense estimates are accrued in the period to which they relate and adjustments are made when actual amounts are known.
Income Tax Information and Distributions to Shareholders. Each year, the Fund intends to qualify as a regulated investment company by distributing substantially all of its taxable income and realized gains under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code and filing its U.S. federal tax return. As a result, no provision for income taxes is required. The Fund is subject to the provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainties in Income Taxes (FIN 48). FIN 48 sets forth a minimum threshold for financial statement recognition of the benefit of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. There are no unrecognized tax benefits in the accompanying financial statements. A Fund's federal tax return is subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for a period of three years. Foreign taxes are provided for based on the Fund's understanding of the tax rules and rates that exist in the foreign markets in which it invests.
Distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income dividends and capital gain distributions are declared separately for each class. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles.
Capital accounts within the financial statements are adjusted for permanent book-tax differences. These adjustments have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. Temporary book-tax differences will reverse in a subsequent period.
Book-tax differences are primarily due to foreign currency transactions and losses deferred due to wash sales and excise tax regulations.
The federal tax cost of investments and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) as of period end were as follows:
Unrealized appreciation | $ 3,201,017 |
Unrealized depreciation | (9,457,149) |
Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) | $ (6,256,132) |
Cost for federal income tax purposes | $ 53,549,161 |
Trading (Redemption) Fees. Shares held less than 60 days are subject to a redemption fee equal to 1% of the proceeds of the redeemed shares. All redemption fees, including any estimated redemption fees paid by FMR, are retained by the Fund and accounted for as an addition to paid in capital.
4. Purchases and Sales of Investments.
Purchases and sales of securities, other than short-term securities, aggregated $28,715,103 and $24,599,168, respectively.
Semiannual Report
5. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates.
Management Fee. FMR and its affiliates provide the Fund with investment management related services for which the Fund pays a monthly management fee. The management fee is the sum of an individual fund fee rate that is based on an annual rate of .30% of the Fund's average net assets and a group fee rate that averaged .27% during the period. The group fee rate is based upon the average net assets of all the mutual funds advised by FMR. The group fee rate decreases as assets under management increase and increases as assets under management decrease. For the period, the total annualized management fee rate was .57% of the Fund's average net assets.
Transfer Agent Fees. Fidelity Investments Institutional Operations Company, Inc. (FIIOC), an affiliate of FMR, is the Fund's transfer, dividend disbursing, and shareholder servicing agent. FIIOC receives an asset-based fee with respect to each class. Each class (with the exception of Investor Class) pays a transfer agent fee, excluding out of pocket expenses, equal to an annual rate of .07% of average net assets. Investor Class pays a monthly asset-based transfer agent fee of .15% of average net assets. The total transfer agent fees paid by each class to FIIOC, including out of pocket expenses, were as follows:
Initial Class | $ 10,971 |
Investor Class | 17,791 |
| $ 28,762 |
Accounting and Security Lending Fees. Fidelity Service Company, Inc. (FSC), an affiliate of FMR, maintains the Fund's accounting records. The accounting fee is based on the level of average net assets for the month. Under a separate contract, FSC administers the security lending program. The security lending fee is based on the number and duration of lending transactions.
Brokerage Commissions. The Fund placed a portion of its portfolio transactions with brokerage firms which are affiliates of the investment adviser. The commissions paid to these affiliated firms were $1,443 for the period.
6. Committed Line of Credit.
The Fund participates with other funds managed by FMR in a $3.5 billion credit facility (the "line of credit") to be utilized for temporary or emergency purposes to fund shareholder redemptions or for other short-term liquidity purposes. The Fund has agreed to pay commitment fees on its pro-rata portion of the line of credit, which amounted to $119 and is reflected in Miscellaneous Expense on the Statement of Operations. During the period, there were no borrowings on this line of credit.
7. Security Lending.
The Fund lends portfolio securities from time to time in order to earn additional income. On the settlement date of the loan, the Fund receives collateral (in the form of U.S. Treasury obligations, letters of credit and/or cash) against the loaned securities and maintains collateral in an amount not less than 100% of the market value of the loaned securities during the period of the loan. The market value of the loaned securities is determined at the close of business of the Fund and any additional required collateral is delivered to the Fund on the next business day. If the borrower defaults on its obligation to return the securities loaned because of insolvency or other reasons, a fund could experience delays and costs in recovering the securities loaned or in gaining access to the collateral. Any cash collateral received is invested in the Fidelity Securities Lending Cash Central Fund. The value of loaned securities and cash collateral at period end are disclosed on the Fund's Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Security lending income represents the income earned on investing cash collateral, less fees and expenses associated with the loan, plus any premium payments that may be received on the loan of certain types of securities. Security lending income is presented in the Statement of Operations as a component of income from Fidelity Central Funds. Net income from lending portfolio securities during the period amounted to $15,067.
8. Expense Reductions.
Many of the brokers with whom FMR places trades on behalf of the Fund provided services to the Fund in addition to trade execution. These services included payments of certain expenses on behalf of the Fund totaling $81 for the period.

11. Other.
The Fund's organizational documents provide former and current trustees and officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the Fund. In the normal course of business, the Fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against the Fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.
At the end of the period, FMR or its affiliates were the owners of record of 100% of the total outstanding shares of the Fund.

NOT FDIC INSURED · MAY LOSE VALUE · NO BANK GUARANTEE
Neither the fund nor Fidelity Distributors Corporation is a bank.
Semiannual Report
As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including redemption fees, and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (January 1, 2009 to June 30, 2009).
Actual Expenses
The first line of the accompanying table for each class of the Fund provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000.00 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000.00 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line for a class of the Fund under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. The estimate of expenses does not include any fees or other expenses of any variable annuity or variable life insurance product. If they were, the estimate of expenses you paid during the period would be higher, and your ending account value would be lower. In addition, the Fund, as a shareholder in the underlying Fidelity Central Funds, will indirectly bear its pro-rata share of the fees and expenses incurred by the underlying Fidelity Central Funds. These fees and expenses are not included in the Fund's annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimate in the table below.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The second line of the accompanying table for each class of the Fund provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on a Class' actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Class' actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. The estimate of expenses does not include any fees or other expenses of any variable annuity or variable life insurance product. If they were, the estimate of expenses you paid during the period would be higher, and your ending account value would be lower. In addition, the Fund, as a shareholder in the underlying Fidelity Central Funds, will indirectly bear its pro-rata share of the fees and expenses incurred by the underlying Fidelity Central Funds. These fees and expenses are not included in the Fund's annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimate in the table below.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transaction costs. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.
| Annualized Expense Ratio | Beginning Account Value January 1, 2009 | Ending Account Value June 30, 2009 | Expenses Paid During Period* January 1, 2009 to June 30, 2009 |

Notes to Financial Statements
For the period ended June 30, 2009 (Unaudited)
1. Organization.
VIP International Capital Appreciation Portfolio (the Fund) is a fund of Variable Insurance Products Fund IV (the trust) and is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares. The trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust. Shares of the Fund may only be purchased by insurance companies for the purpose of funding variable annuity or variable life insurance contracts. The Fund offers the following classes of shares: Initial Class shares, Service Class shares, Service Class 2 shares, Initial Class R shares, Service Class R shares, Service Class 2R shares, and Investor Class R shares. All classes have equal rights and voting privileges, except for matters affecting a single class. Investment income, realized and unrealized capital gains and losses, the common expenses of the Fund, and certain fund-level expense reductions, if any, are allocated on a pro-rata basis to each class based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of the Fund. Each class differs with respect to transfer agent and distribution and service plan fees incurred. Certain expense reductions also differ by class. The Fund's investments in emerging markets can be subject to social, economic, regulatory, and political uncertainties and can be extremely volatile.
2. Investments in Fidelity Central Funds.
The Fund may invest in Fidelity Central Funds, which are open-end investment companies available only to other investment companies and accounts managed by Fidelity Management & Research Company (FMR) and its affiliates. The Fund's Schedule of Investments lists each of the Fidelity Central Funds held as of period end, if any, as an investment of the Fund, but does not include the underlying holdings of each Fidelity Central Fund. As an Investing Fund, the Fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of the expenses of the underlying Fidelity Central Funds.
The Money Market Central Funds seek preservation of capital and current income and are managed by Fidelity Investments Money Management, Inc. (FIMM), an affiliate of FMR.
A complete unaudited list of holdings for each Fidelity Central Fund is available upon request or at the SEC's web site at www.sec.gov. In addition, the financial statements of the Fidelity Central Funds are available on the SEC's web site or upon request.
3. Significant Accounting Policies.
The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which require management to make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Events or transactions occurring after period end through the date that the financial statements were issued, August 13, 2009, have been evaluated in the preparation of the financial statements. The following summarizes the significant accounting policies of the Fund:
Security Valuation. Investments are valued as of 4:00 p.m. Eastern time on the last calendar day of the period. The Fund uses independent pricing services approved by the Board of Trustees to value its investments. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) establishes a disclosure hierarchy that categorizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to value assets and liabilities at measurement date. These inputs are classified into three levels. Level 1 includes readily available unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 includes observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable either directly or indirectly. Level 3 includes unobservable inputs when market prices are not readily available or reliable. Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers in or out of an investment's assigned level within the hierarchy. The aggregate value by input level, as of June 30, 2009, for the Fund's investments, as well as a reconciliation of assets and liabilities for which significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) were used in determining value, is included at the end of the Fund's Schedule of Investments. Valuation techniques of the Fund's major categories of assets and liabilities as presented in the Schedule of Investments are as follows.
Equity securities, including restricted securities, for which market quotations are readily available, are valued at the last reported sale price or official closing price as reported by an independent pricing service on the primary market or exchange on which they are traded. In the event there were no sales during the day or closing prices are not available, securities are valued at the last quoted bid price. Investments in open-end mutual funds, including the Fidelity Central Funds, are valued at their closing net asset value each business day. Short-term securities with remaining maturities of sixty days or less for which quotations are not readily available are valued at amortized cost, which approximates value.
When current market prices or quotations are not readily available or reliable, valuations may be determined in good faith in accordance with procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees. Factors used in determining value may include significant market or security specific events, changes in interest rates and credit quality, and developments in foreign markets which are monitored by evaluating the performance of ADRs, futures contracts and exchange-traded funds. The frequency with which these procedures are used cannot be predicted and may be utilized to a significant extent. The value of securities used for net asset value (NAV) calculation under these procedures may differ from published prices for the same securities.
Foreign Currency. The Fund uses foreign currency contracts to facilitate transactions in foreign-denominated securities. Losses from these transactions may arise from changes in the value of the foreign currency or if the counterparties do not perform under the contracts' terms.

3. Significant Accounting Policies - continued
Foreign Currency - continued
Foreign-denominated assets, including investment securities, and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate at period end. Purchases and sales of investment securities, income and dividends received and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate in effect on the transaction date.
The effects of exchange rate fluctuations on investments are included with the net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investment securities. Other foreign currency transactions resulting in realized and unrealized gain (loss) are disclosed separately.
Investment Transactions and Income. For financial reporting purposes, the Fund's investment holdings and NAV include trades executed through the end of the last business day of the period. The NAV per share for processing shareholder transactions is calculated as of the close of business of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time and includes trades executed through the end of the prior business day. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except for certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Interest income and distributions from the Fidelity Central Funds are accrued as earned. Interest income includes coupon interest and amortization of premium and accretion of discount on debt securities. Investment income is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery of such taxes is uncertain.
Expenses. Most expenses of the trust can be directly attributed to a fund. Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned among each Fund in the trust. Expense estimates are accrued in the period to which they relate and adjustments are made when actual amounts are known.
Income Tax Information and Distributions to Shareholders. Each year, the Fund intends to qualify as a regulated investment company by distributing substantially all of its taxable income and realized gains under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code and filing its U.S. federal tax return. As a result, no provision for income taxes is required. The Fund is subject to the provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainties in Income Taxes (FIN 48). FIN 48 sets forth a minimum threshold for financial statement recognition of the benefit of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. There are no unrecognized tax benefits in the accompanying financial statements. A Fund's federal tax return is subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for a period of three years. Foreign taxes are provided for based on the Fund's understanding of the tax rules and rates that exist in the foreign markets in which it invests. The Fund is subject to a tax imposed on short term capital gains on securities of certain issuers domiciled in India. The Fund records an estimated deferred tax liability included in Other payables and accrued expenses in the accompanying Statement of Assets & Liabilities for net unrealized gains on these securities in an amount that would be payable if the securities were disposed of at period end.
Distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income dividends and capital gain distributions are declared separately for each class. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles.
Capital accounts within the financial statements are adjusted for permanent book-tax differences. These adjustments have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. Temporary book-tax differences will reverse in a subsequent period.
Book-tax differences are primarily due to foreign currency transactions, certain foreign taxes, passive foreign investment companies (PFIC), capital loss carryforwards and losses deferred due to wash sales and excise tax regulations.
The federal tax cost of investments and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) as of period end were as follows:
Unrealized appreciation | $ 3,580,989 |
Unrealized depreciation | (2,343,743) |
Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) | $ 1,237,246 |
Cost for federal income tax purposes | $ 30,340,595 |
Trading (Redemption) Fees. Initial Class R shares, Service Class R shares, Service Class 2R shares and Investor Class R shares held less than 60 days are subject to a redemption fee equal to 1% of the proceeds of the redeemed shares. All redemption fees, including any estimated redemption fees paid by FMR, are retained by the Fund and accounted for as an addition to paid in capital.
4. Operating Policies.
Restricted Securities. The Fund may invest in securities that are subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale. These securities generally may be resold in transactions exempt from registration or to the public if the securities are registered. Disposal of these securities may involve time-consuming negotiations and expense, and prompt sale at an acceptable price may be difficult. Information regarding restricted securities is included at the end of the Fund's Schedule of Investments.
Semiannual Report
5. Purchases and Sales of Investments.
Purchases and sales of securities, other than short-term securities, aggregated $49,027,896 and $47,041,380, respectively.
6. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates.
Management Fee. FMR and its affiliates provide the Fund with investment management related services for which the Fund pays a monthly management fee. The management fee is the sum of an individual fund fee rate that is based on an annual rate of .45% of the Fund's average net assets and a group fee rate that averaged .27% during the period. The group fee rate is based upon the average net assets of all the mutual funds advised by FMR. The group fee rate decreases as assets under management increase and increases as assets under management decrease. For the period, the total annualized management fee rate was .71% of the Fund's average net assets.
Distribution and Service Plan. In accordance with Rule 12b-1 of the 1940 Act, the Fund has adopted separate 12b-1 Plans for each Service Class of shares. Each Service Class pays Fidelity Distributors Corporation (FDC), an affiliate of FMR, a service fee. For the period, the service fee is based on an annual rate of .10% of Service Class' and Service Class R's average net assets and .25% of Service Class 2's and Service Class 2R's average net assets.
For the period, each class paid FDC the following amounts, all of which were re-allowed to insurance companies for the distribution of shares and providing shareholder support services:
Service Class | $ 59 |
Service Class 2 | 406 |
Service Class R | 59 |
Service Class 2R | 199 |
| $ 723 |
Transfer Agent Fees. Fidelity Investments Institutional Operations Company, Inc. (FIIOC), an affiliate of FMR, is the Fund's transfer, dividend disbursing, and shareholder servicing agent. FIIOC receives an asset-based fee with respect to each class. Each class (with the exception of Investor Class R) pays a transfer agent fee, excluding out of pocket expenses, equal to an annual rate of .07% of average net assets. Investor Class R pays a monthly asset-based transfer agent fee of .15% of average net assets. The total transfer agent fees paid by each class to FIIOC, including out of pocket expenses, were as follows:
Initial Class | $ 729 |
Service Class | 86 |
Service Class 2 | 791 |
Initial Class R | 5,073 |
Service Class R | 86 |
Service Class 2R | 102 |
Investor Class R | 14,554 |
| $ 21,421 |
Accounting and Security Lending Fees. Fidelity Service Company, Inc. (FSC), an affiliate of FMR, maintains the Fund's accounting records. The accounting fee is based on the level of average net assets for the month. Under a separate contract, FSC administers the security lending program. The security lending fee is based on the number and duration of lending transactions.
Brokerage Commissions. The Fund placed a portion of its portfolio transactions with brokerage firms which are affiliates of the investment adviser. The commissions paid to these affiliated firms were $1,293 for the period.
7. Committed Line of Credit.
The Fund participates with other funds managed by FMR in a $3.5 billion credit facility (the "line of credit") to be utilized for temporary or emergency purposes to fund shareholder redemptions or for other short-term liquidity purposes. The Fund has agreed to pay commitment fees on its pro-rata portion of the line of credit, which amounted to $68 and is reflected in Miscellaneous Expense on the Statement of Operations. During the period, there were no borrowings on this line of credit.
Semiannual Report
Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) - continued
8. Security Lending.
The Fund lends portfolio securities from time to time in order to earn additional income. On the settlement date of the loan, the Fund receives collateral (in the form of U.S. Treasury obligations, letters of credit and/or cash) against the loaned securities and maintains collateral in an amount not less than 100% of the market value of the loaned securities during the period of the loan. The market value of the loaned securities is determined at the close of business of the Fund and any additional required collateral is delivered to the Fund on the next business day. If the borrower defaults on its obligation to return the securities loaned because of insolvency or other reasons, a fund could experience delays and costs in recovering the securities loaned or in gaining access to the collateral. Any cash collateral received is invested in the Fidelity Securities Lending Cash Central Fund. The value of loaned securities and cash collateral at period end are disclosed on the Fund's Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Security lending income represents the income earned on investing cash collateral, less fees and expenses associated with the loan, plus any premium payments that may be received on the loan of certain types of securities. Security lending income is presented in the Statement of Operations as a component of income from Fidelity Central Funds.
9. Expense Reductions.
FMR voluntarily agreed to reimburse each class to the extent annual operating expenses exceeded certain levels of average net assets as noted in the table below. Some expenses, for example interest expense, including commitment fees, are excluded from this reimbursement.
The following classes were in reimbursement during the period:
| Expense Limitations | Reimbursement from adviser |
| | |
Initial Class | 1.10% | $ 1,437 |
Service Class | 1.20% | 305 |

Service Class 2R | 1.35% | 394 |
Investor Class R | 1.18% | 35,820 |
| | $ 61,155 |
Many of the brokers with whom FMR places trades on behalf of the Fund provided services to the Fund in addition to trade execution. These services included payments of certain expenses on behalf of the Fund totaling $8,540 for the period. In addition, through arrangements with the Fund's custodian, credits realized as a result of uninvested cash balances were used to reduce the Fund's expenses. During the period, these credits reduced the Fund's custody expenses by $112.

The Fund's organizational documents provide former and current trustees and officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the Fund. In the normal course of business, the Fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against the Fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.
At the end of the period, FMR or its affiliates were the owners of record of 97% of the total outstanding shares of the Fund.

Semiannual Report
As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including redemption fees, and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (January 1, 2009 to June 30, 2009).
Actual Expenses
The first line of the accompanying table for each class of the Fund provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000.00 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000.00 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line for a class of the Fund under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. The estimate of expenses does not include any fees or other expenses of any variable annuity or variable life insurance product. If they were, the estimate of expenses you paid during the period would be higher, and your ending account value would be lower. In addition, the Fund, as a shareholder in the underlying Fidelity Central Funds, will indirectly bear its pro-rata share of the fees and expenses incurred by the underlying Fidelity Central Funds. These fees and expenses are not included in the Fund's annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimate in the table below.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The second line of the accompanying table for each class of the Fund provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on a Class' actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Class' actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. The estimate of expenses does not include any fees or other expenses of any variable annuity or variable life insurance product. If they were, the estimate of expenses you paid during the period would be higher, and your ending account value would be lower. In addition, the Fund, as a shareholder in the underlying Fidelity Central Funds, will indirectly bear its pro-rata share of the fees and expenses incurred by the underlying Fidelity Central Funds. These fees and expenses are not included in the Fund's annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimate in the table below.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transaction costs. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

For the period ended June 30, 2009 (Unaudited)
1. Organization.
VIP International Capital Appreciation Portfolio (the Fund) is a fund of Variable Insurance Products Fund IV (the trust) and is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares. The trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust. Shares of the Fund may only be purchased by insurance companies for the purpose of funding variable annuity or variable life insurance contracts. The Fund offers the following classes of shares: Initial Class shares, Service Class shares, Service Class 2 shares, Initial Class R shares, Service Class R shares, Service Class 2R shares, and Investor Class R shares. All classes have equal rights and voting privileges, except for matters affecting a single class. Investment income, realized and unrealized capital gains and losses, the common expenses of the Fund, and certain fund-level expense reductions, if any, are allocated on a pro-rata basis to each class based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of the Fund. Each class differs with respect to transfer agent and distribution and service plan fees incurred. Certain expense reductions also differ by class. The Fund's investments in emerging markets can be subject to social, economic, regulatory, and political uncertainties and can be extremely volatile.
2. Investments in Fidelity Central Funds.
The Fund may invest in Fidelity Central Funds, which are open-end investment companies available only to other investment companies and accounts managed by Fidelity Management & Research Company (FMR) and its affiliates. The Fund's Schedule of Investments lists each of the Fidelity Central Funds held as of period end, if any, as an investment of the Fund, but does not include the underlying holdings of each Fidelity Central Fund. As an Investing Fund, the Fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of the expenses of the underlying Fidelity Central Funds.
The Money Market Central Funds seek preservation of capital and current income and are managed by Fidelity Investments Money Management, Inc. (FIMM), an affiliate of FMR.
A complete unaudited list of holdings for each Fidelity Central Fund is available upon request or at the SEC's web site at www.sec.gov. In addition, the financial statements of the Fidelity Central Funds are available on the SEC's web site or upon request.
3. Significant Accounting Policies.
The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which require management to make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Events or transactions occurring after period end through the date that the financial statements were issued, August 13, 2009, have been evaluated in the preparation of the financial statements. The following summarizes the significant accounting policies of the Fund:
Security Valuation. Investments are valued as of 4:00 p.m. Eastern time on the last calendar day of the period. The Fund uses independent pricing services approved by the Board of Trustees to value its investments. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) establishes a disclosure hierarchy that categorizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to value assets and liabilities at measurement date. These inputs are classified into three levels. Level 1 includes readily available unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 includes observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable either directly or indirectly. Level 3 includes unobservable inputs when market prices are not readily available or reliable. Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers in or out of an investment's assigned level within the hierarchy. The aggregate value by input level, as of June 30, 2009, for the Fund's investments, as well as a reconciliation of assets and liabilities for which significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) were used in determining value, is included at the end of the Fund's Schedule of Investments. Valuation techniques of the Fund's major categories of assets and liabilities as presented in the Schedule of Investments are as follows.
Equity securities, including restricted securities, for which market quotations are readily available, are valued at the last reported sale price or official closing price as reported by an independent pricing service on the primary market or exchange on which they are traded. In the event there were no sales during the day or closing prices are not available, securities are valued at the last quoted bid price. Investments in open-end mutual funds, including the Fidelity Central Funds, are valued at their closing net asset value each business day. Short-term securities with remaining maturities of sixty days or less for which quotations are not readily available are valued at amortized cost, which approximates value.
When current market prices or quotations are not readily available or reliable, valuations may be determined in good faith in accordance with procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees. Factors used in determining value may include significant market or security specific events, changes in interest rates and credit quality, and developments in foreign markets which are monitored by evaluating the performance of ADRs, futures contracts and exchange-traded funds. The frequency with which these procedures are used cannot be predicted and may be utilized to a significant extent. The value of securities used for net asset value (NAV) calculation under these procedures may differ from published prices for the same securities.
Foreign Currency. The Fund uses foreign currency contracts to facilitate transactions in foreign-denominated securities. Losses from these transactions may arise from changes in the value of the foreign currency or if the counterparties do not perform under the contracts' terms.

3. Significant Accounting Policies - continued
Foreign Currency - continued
Foreign-denominated assets, including investment securities, and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate at period end. Purchases and sales of investment securities, income and dividends received and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate in effect on the transaction date.
The effects of exchange rate fluctuations on investments are included with the net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investment securities. Other foreign currency transactions resulting in realized and unrealized gain (loss) are disclosed separately.
Investment Transactions and Income. For financial reporting purposes, the Fund's investment holdings and NAV include trades executed through the end of the last business day of the period. The NAV per share for processing shareholder transactions is calculated as of the close of business of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time and includes trades executed through the end of the prior business day. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except for certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Interest income and distributions from the Fidelity Central Funds are accrued as earned. Interest income includes coupon interest and amortization of premium and accretion of discount on debt securities. Investment income is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery of such taxes is uncertain.
Expenses. Most expenses of the trust can be directly attributed to a fund. Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned among each Fund in the trust. Expense estimates are accrued in the period to which they relate and adjustments are made when actual amounts are known.
Income Tax Information and Distributions to Shareholders. Each year, the Fund intends to qualify as a regulated investment company by distributing substantially all of its taxable income and realized gains under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code and filing its U.S. federal tax return. As a result, no provision for income taxes is required. The Fund is subject to the provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainties in Income Taxes (FIN 48). FIN 48 sets forth a minimum threshold for financial statement recognition of the benefit of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. There are no unrecognized tax benefits in the accompanying financial statements. A Fund's federal tax return is subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for a period of three years. Foreign taxes are provided for based on the Fund's understanding of the tax rules and rates that exist in the foreign markets in which it invests. The Fund is subject to a tax imposed on short term capital gains on securities of certain issuers domiciled in India. The Fund records an estimated deferred tax liability included in Other payables and accrued expenses in the accompanying Statement of Assets & Liabilities for net unrealized gains on these securities in an amount that would be payable if the securities were disposed of at period end.
Distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income dividends and capital gain distributions are declared separately for each class. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles.
Capital accounts within the financial statements are adjusted for permanent book-tax differences. These adjustments have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. Temporary book-tax differences will reverse in a subsequent period.
Book-tax differences are primarily due to foreign currency transactions, certain foreign taxes, passive foreign investment companies (PFIC), capital loss carryforwards and losses deferred due to wash sales and excise tax regulations.
The federal tax cost of investments and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) as of period end were as follows:
Unrealized appreciation | $ 3,580,989 |
Unrealized depreciation | (2,343,743) |
Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) | $ 1,237,246 |
Cost for federal income tax purposes | $ 30,340,595 |
Trading (Redemption) Fees. Initial Class R shares, Service Class R shares, Service Class 2R shares and Investor Class R shares held less than 60 days are subject to a redemption fee equal to 1% of the proceeds of the redeemed shares. All redemption fees, including any estimated redemption fees paid by FMR, are retained by the Fund and accounted for as an addition to paid in capital.
4. Operating Policies.
Restricted Securities. The Fund may invest in securities that are subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale. These securities generally may be resold in transactions exempt from registration or to the public if the securities are registered. Disposal of these securities may involve time-consuming negotiations and expense, and prompt sale at an acceptable price may be difficult. Information regarding restricted securities is included at the end of the Fund's Schedule of Investments.
Semiannual Report
5. Purchases and Sales of Investments.
Purchases and sales of securities, other than short-term securities, aggregated $49,027,896 and $47,041,380, respectively.
6. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates.
Management Fee. FMR and its affiliates provide the Fund with investment management related services for which the Fund pays a monthly management fee. The management fee is the sum of an individual fund fee rate that is based on an annual rate of .45% of the Fund's average net assets and a group fee rate that averaged .27% during the period. The group fee rate is based upon the average net assets of all the mutual funds advised by FMR. The group fee rate decreases as assets under management increase and increases as assets under management decrease. For the period, the total annualized management fee rate was .71% of the Fund's average net assets.
Distribution and Service Plan. In accordance with Rule 12b-1 of the 1940 Act, the Fund has adopted separate 12b-1 Plans for each Service Class of shares. Each Service Class pays Fidelity Distributors Corporation (FDC), an affiliate of FMR, a service fee. For the period, the service fee is based on an annual rate of .10% of Service Class' and Service Class R's average net assets and .25% of Service Class 2's and Service Class 2R's average net assets.
For the period, each class paid FDC the following amounts, all of which were re-allowed to insurance companies for the distribution of shares and providing shareholder support services:
Service Class | $ 59 |
Service Class 2 | 406 |
Service Class R | 59 |
Service Class 2R | 199 |
| $ 723 |
Transfer Agent Fees. Fidelity Investments Institutional Operations Company, Inc. (FIIOC), an affiliate of FMR, is the Fund's transfer, dividend disbursing, and shareholder servicing agent. FIIOC receives an asset-based fee with respect to each class. Each class (with the exception of Investor Class R) pays a transfer agent fee, excluding out of pocket expenses, equal to an annual rate of .07% of average net assets. Investor Class R pays a monthly asset-based transfer agent fee of .15% of average net assets. The total transfer agent fees paid by each class to FIIOC, including out of pocket expenses, were as follows:
Initial Class | $ 729 |
Service Class | 86 |
Service Class 2 | 791 |
Initial Class R | 5,073 |
Service Class R | 86 |
Service Class 2R | 102 |
Investor Class R | 14,554 |
| $ 21,421 |
Accounting and Security Lending Fees. Fidelity Service Company, Inc. (FSC), an affiliate of FMR, maintains the Fund's accounting records. The accounting fee is based on the level of average net assets for the month. Under a separate contract, FSC administers the security lending program. The security lending fee is based on the number and duration of lending transactions.
Brokerage Commissions. The Fund placed a portion of its portfolio transactions with brokerage firms which are affiliates of the investment adviser. The commissions paid to these affiliated firms were $1,293 for the period.
7. Committed Line of Credit.
The Fund participates with other funds managed by FMR in a $3.5 billion credit facility (the "line of credit") to be utilized for temporary or emergency purposes to fund shareholder redemptions or for other short-term liquidity purposes. The Fund has agreed to pay commitment fees on its pro-rata portion of the line of credit, which amounted to $68 and is reflected in Miscellaneous Expense on the Statement of Operations. During the period, there were no borrowings on this line of credit.
Semiannual Report
Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) - continued
8. Security Lending.
The Fund lends portfolio securities from time to time in order to earn additional income. On the settlement date of the loan, the Fund receives collateral (in the form of U.S. Treasury obligations, letters of credit and/or cash) against the loaned securities and maintains collateral in an amount not less than 100% of the market value of the loaned securities during the period of the loan. The market value of the loaned securities is determined at the close of business of the Fund and any additional required collateral is delivered to the Fund on the next business day. If the borrower defaults on its obligation to return the securities loaned because of insolvency or other reasons, a fund could experience delays and costs in recovering the securities loaned or in gaining access to the collateral. Any cash collateral received is invested in the Fidelity Securities Lending Cash Central Fund. The value of loaned securities and cash collateral at period end are disclosed on the Fund's Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Security lending income represents the income earned on investing cash collateral, less fees and expenses associated with the loan, plus any premium payments that may be received on the loan of certain types of securities. Security lending income is presented in the Statement of Operations as a component of income from Fidelity Central Funds.
9. Expense Reductions.
FMR voluntarily agreed to reimburse each class to the extent annual operating expenses exceeded certain levels of average net assets as noted in the table below. Some expenses, for example interest expense, including commitment fees, are excluded from this reimbursement.
The following classes were in reimbursement during the period:
| Expense Limitations | Reimbursement from adviser |
| | |
Initial Class | 1.10% | $ 1,437 |
Service Class | 1.20% | 305 |
Service Class 2 | 1.35% | 1,372 |
Initial Class R | 1.10% | 21,522 |
Service Class R | 1.20% | 305 |
Service Class 2R | 1.35% | 394 |
Investor Class R | 1.18% | 35,820 |
| | $ 61,155 |
Many of the brokers with whom FMR places trades on behalf of the Fund provided services to the Fund in addition to trade execution. These services included payments of certain expenses on behalf of the Fund totaling $8,540 for the period. In addition, through arrangements with the Fund's custodian, credits realized as a result of uninvested cash balances were used to reduce the Fund's expenses. During the period, these credits reduced the Fund's custody expenses by $112.

12. Other.
The Fund's organizational documents provide former and current trustees and officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the Fund. In the normal course of business, the Fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against the Fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.
At the end of the period, FMR or its affiliates were the owners of record of 97% of the total outstanding shares of the Fund.

Neither the fund nor Fidelity Distributors Corporation is a bank.
Semiannual Report
As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including redemption fees, and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (January 1, 2009 to June 30, 2009).
Actual Expenses
The first line of the accompanying table for each class of the Fund provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000.00 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000.00 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line for a class of the Fund under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. The estimate of expenses does not include any fees or other expenses of any variable annuity or variable life insurance product. If they were, the estimate of expenses you paid during the period would be higher, and your ending account value would be lower. In addition, the Fund, as a shareholder in the underlying Fidelity Central Funds, will indirectly bear its pro-rata share of the fees and expenses incurred by the underlying Fidelity Central Funds. These fees and expenses are not included in the Fund's annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimate in the table below.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The second line of the accompanying table for each class of the Fund provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on a Class' actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Class' actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. The estimate of expenses does not include any fees or other expenses of any variable annuity or variable life insurance product. If they were, the estimate of expenses you paid during the period would be higher, and your ending account value would be lower. In addition, the Fund, as a shareholder in the underlying Fidelity Central Funds, will indirectly bear its pro-rata share of the fees and expenses incurred by the underlying Fidelity Central Funds. These fees and expenses are not included in the Fund's annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimate in the table below.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transaction costs. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

Semiannual Report
Notes to Financial Statements
For the period ended June 30, 2009 (Unaudited)
1. Organization.
VIP Materials Portfolio (the Fund) is a non-diversified fund of Variable Insurance Products Fund IV (the trust) and is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares. The trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust. Shares of the Fund may only be purchased by insurance companies for the purpose of funding variable annuity or variable life insurance contracts. The Fund offers the following classes of shares: Initial Class shares and Investor Class shares. All classes have equal rights and voting privileges, except for matters affecting a single class. Investment income, realized and unrealized capital gains and losses, the common expenses of the Fund, and certain fund-level expense reductions, if any, are allocated on a pro-rata basis to each class based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of the Fund. Each class differs with respect to transfer agent fees incurred. Certain expense reductions also differ by class.
2. Investments in Fidelity Central Funds.
The Fund may invest in Fidelity Central Funds, which are open-end investment companies available only to other investment companies and accounts managed by Fidelity Management & Research Company (FMR) and its affiliates. The Fund's Schedule of Investments lists each of the Fidelity Central Funds held as of period end, if any, as an investment of the Fund, but does not include the underlying holdings of each Fidelity Central Fund. As an Investing Fund, the Fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of the expenses of the underlying Fidelity Central Funds.
The Money Market Central Funds seek preservation of capital and current income and are managed by Fidelity Investments Money Management, Inc. (FIMM), an affiliate of FMR.
A complete unaudited list of holdings for each Fidelity Central Fund is available upon request or at the SEC's web site at www.sec.gov. In addition, the financial statements of the Fidelity Central Funds are available on the SEC's web site or upon request.
3. Significant Accounting Policies.
The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which require management to make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Events or transactions occurring after period end through the date that the financial statements were issued, August 13, 2009, have been evaluated in the preparation of the financial statements. The following summarizes the significant accounting policies of the Fund:
Security Valuation. Investments are valued as of 4:00 p.m. Eastern time on the last calendar day of the period. The Fund uses independent pricing services approved by the Board of Trustees to value its investments. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) establishes a disclosure hierarchy that categorizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to value assets and liabilities at measurement date. These inputs are classified into three levels. Level 1 includes readily available unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 includes observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable either directly or indirectly. Level 3 includes unobservable inputs when market prices are not readily available or reliable. Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers in or out of an investment's assigned level within the hierarchy. The aggregate value by input level, as of June 30, 2009, for the Fund's investments is included at the end of the Fund's Schedule of Investments. Valuation techniques of the Fund's major categories of assets and liabilities as presented in the Schedule of Investments are as follows.
Equity securities, including restricted securities, for which market quotations are readily available, are valued at the last reported sale price or official closing price as reported by an independent pricing service on the primary market or exchange on which they are traded. In the event there were no sales during the day or closing prices are not available, securities are valued at the last quoted bid price. Investments in open-end mutual funds, including the Fidelity Central Funds, are valued at their closing net asset value each business day. Short-term securities with remaining maturities of sixty days or less for which quotations are not readily available are valued at amortized cost, which approximates value.
When current market prices or quotations are not readily available or reliable, valuations may be determined in good faith in accordance with procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees. Factors used in determining value may include significant market or security specific events, changes in interest rates and credit quality, and developments in foreign markets which are monitored by evaluating the performance of ADRs, futures contracts and exchange-traded funds. The frequency with which these procedures are used cannot be predicted and may be utilized to a significant extent. The value of securities used for net asset value (NAV) calculation under these procedures may differ from published prices for the same securities.
Foreign Currency. The Fund uses foreign currency contracts to facilitate transactions in foreign-denominated securities. Losses from these transactions may arise from changes in the value of the foreign currency or if the counterparties do not perform under the contracts' terms.
Foreign-denominated assets, including investment securities, and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate at period end. Purchases and sales of investment securities, income and dividends received and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate in effect on the transaction date.
The effects of exchange rate fluctuations on investments are included with the net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investment securities. Other foreign currency transactions resulting in realized and unrealized gain (loss) are disclosed separately.

3. Significant Accounting Policies - continued
Investment Transactions and Income. For financial reporting purposes, the Fund's investment holdings and NAV include trades executed through the end of the last business day of the period. The NAV per share for processing shareholder transactions is calculated as of the close of business of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time and includes trades executed through the end of the prior business day. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except for certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Distributions received on securities that represent a return of capital or capital gain are recorded as a reduction of cost of investments and/or as a realized gain. The Fund estimates the components of distributions received that may be considered return of capital distributions or capital gain distributions. Interest income and distributions from the Fidelity Central Funds are accrued as earned. Interest income includes coupon interest and amortization of premium and accretion of discount on debt securities. Investment income is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery of such taxes is uncertain.
Expenses. Most expenses of the trust can be directly attributed to a fund. Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned among each Fund in the trust. Expense estimates are accrued in the period to which they relate and adjustments are made when actual amounts are known.
Income Tax Information and Distributions to Shareholders. Each year, the Fund intends to qualify as a regulated investment company by distributing substantially all of its taxable income and realized gains under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code and filing its U.S. federal tax return. As a result, no provision for income taxes is required. The Fund is subject to the provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainties in Income Taxes (FIN 48). FIN 48 sets forth a minimum threshold for financial statement recognition of the benefit of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. There are no unrecognized tax benefits in the accompanying financial statements. A Fund's federal tax return is subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for a period of three years. Foreign taxes are provided for based on the Fund's understanding of the tax rules and rates that exist in the foreign markets in which it invests.
Distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income dividends and capital gain distributions are declared separately for each class. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles.
Capital accounts within the financial statements are adjusted for permanent book-tax differences. These adjustments have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. Temporary book-tax differences will reverse in a subsequent period.
Book-tax differences are primarily due to foreign currency transactions, passive foreign investment companies (PFIC), capital loss carryforwards and losses deferred due to wash sales and excise tax regulations.
The federal tax cost of investments and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) as of period end were as follows:
Unrealized appreciation | $ 3,293,483 |
Unrealized depreciation | (8,412,767) |
Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) | $ (5,119,284) |
Cost for federal income tax purposes | $ 43,049,756 |
Trading (Redemption) Fees. Shares held less than 60 days are subject to a redemption fee equal to 1% of the proceeds of the redeemed shares. All redemption fees, including any estimated redemption fees paid by FMR, are retained by the Fund and accounted for as an addition to paid in capital.
4. Purchases and Sales of Investments.
Purchases and sales of securities, other than short-term securities, aggregated $33,151,068 and $18,841,104, respectively.
5. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates.
Management Fee. FMR and its affiliates provide the Fund with investment management related services for which the Fund pays a monthly management fee. The management fee is the sum of an individual fund fee rate that is based on an annual rate of .30% of the Fund's average net assets and a group fee rate that averaged .27% during the period. The group fee rate is based upon the average net assets of all the mutual funds advised by FMR. The group fee rate decreases as assets under management increase and increases as assets under management decrease. For the period, the total annualized management fee rate was .56% of the Fund's average net assets.

5. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates - continued
Transfer Agent Fees. Fidelity Investments Institutional Operations Company, Inc. (FIIOC), an affiliate of FMR, is the Fund's transfer, dividend disbursing, and shareholder servicing agent. FIIOC receives an asset-based fee with respect to each class. Each class (with the exception of Investor Class) pays a transfer agent fee, excluding out of pocket expenses, equal to an annual rate of .07% of average net assets. Investor Class pays a monthly asset-based transfer agent fee of .15% of average net assets. The total transfer agent fees paid by each class to FIIOC, including out of pocket expenses, were as follows:
Initial Class | $ 7,072 |
Investor Class | 11,759 |
| $ 18,831 |
Accounting and Security Lending Fees. Fidelity Service Company, Inc. (FSC), an affiliate of FMR, maintains the Fund's accounting records. The accounting fee is based on the level of average net assets for the month. Under a separate contract, FSC administers the security lending program. The security lending fee is based on the number and duration of lending transactions.
Brokerage Commissions. The Fund placed a portion of its portfolio transactions with brokerage firms which are affiliates of the investment adviser. The commissions paid to these affiliated firms were $798 for the period.
6. Committed Line of Credit.
The Fund participates with other funds managed by FMR in a $3.5 billion credit facility (the "line of credit") to be utilized for temporary or emergency purposes to fund shareholder redemptions or for other short-term liquidity purposes. The Fund has agreed to pay commitment fees on its pro-rata portion of the line of credit, which amounted to $55 and is reflected in Miscellaneous Expense on the Statement of Operations. During the period, there were no borrowings on this line of credit.
7. Security Lending.
The Fund lends portfolio securities from time to time in order to earn additional income. On the settlement date of the loan, the Fund receives collateral (in the form of U.S. Treasury obligations, letters of credit and/or cash) against the loaned securities and maintains collateral in an amount not less than 100% of the market value of the loaned securities during the period of the loan. The market value of the loaned securities is determined at the close of business of the Fund and any additional required collateral is delivered to the Fund on the next business day. If the borrower defaults on its obligation to return the securities loaned because of insolvency or other reasons, a fund could experience delays and costs in recovering the securities loaned or in gaining access to the collateral. Any cash collateral received is invested in the Fidelity Securities Lending Cash Central Fund. At period end, there were no security loans outstanding. Security lending income represents the income earned on investing cash collateral, less fees and expenses associated with the loan, plus any premium payments that may be received on the loan of certain types of securities. Security lending income is presented in the Statement of Operations as a component of income from Fidelity Central Funds. Net income from lending portfolio securities during the period amounted to $202.
8. Expense Reductions.
Many of the brokers with whom FMR places trades on behalf of the Fund provided services to the Fund in addition to trade execution. These services included payments of certain expenses on behalf of the Fund totaling $23 for the period.
9. Distributions to Shareholders.
Distributions to shareholders of each class were as follows:

11. Other.
The Fund's organizational documents provide former and current trustees and officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the Fund. In the normal course of business, the Fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against the Fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.
At the end of the period, FMR or its affiliates were the owners of record of 100% of the total outstanding shares of the Fund.

Semiannual Report
As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (January 1, 2009 to June 30, 2009).
Actual Expenses
The first line of the accompanying table for each class of the Fund provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000.00 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000.00 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line for a class of the Fund under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. The estimate of expenses does not include any fees or other expenses of any variable annuity or variable life insurance product. If they were, the estimate of expenses you paid during the period would be higher, and your ending account value would be lower. In addition, the Fund, as a shareholder in the underlying Fidelity Central Funds, will indirectly bear its pro-rata share of the fees and expenses incurred by the underlying Fidelity Central Funds. These fees and expenses are not included in the Fund's annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimate in the table below.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The second line of the accompanying table for each class of the Fund provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on a Class' actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Class' actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. The estimate of expenses does not include any fees or other expenses of any variable annuity or variable life insurance product. If they were, the estimate of expenses you paid during the period would be higher, and your ending account value would be lower. In addition, the Fund, as a shareholder in the underlying Fidelity Central Funds, will indirectly bear its pro-rata share of the fees and expenses incurred by the underlying Fidelity Central Funds. These fees and expenses are not included in the Fund's annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimate in the table below.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transaction costs. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds.

Notes to Financial Statements
For the period ended June 30, 2009 (Unaudited)
1. Organization.
VIP Real Estate Portfolio (the Fund) is a non-diversified fund of Variable Insurance Products Fund IV (the trust) and is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares. The trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust. Shares of the Fund may only be purchased by insurance companies for the purpose of funding variable annuity or variable life insurance contracts. The Fund offers the following classes of shares: Initial Class shares, Service Class shares, Service Class 2 shares and Investor Class shares. All classes have equal rights and voting privileges, except for matters affecting a single class. Investment income, realized and unrealized capital gains and losses, the common expenses of the Fund, and certain fund-level expense reductions, if any, are allocated on a pro-rata basis to each class based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of the Fund. Each class differs with respect to transfer agent and distribution and service plan fees incurred. Certain expense reductions also differ by class.
2. Investments in Fidelity Central Funds.
The Fund may invest in Fidelity Central Funds, which are open-end investment companies available only to other investment companies and accounts managed by Fidelity Management & Research Company (FMR) and its affiliates. The Fund's Schedule of Investments lists each of the Fidelity Central Funds held as of period end, if any, as an investment of the Fund, but does not include the underlying holdings of each Fidelity Central Fund. As an Investing Fund, the Fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of the expenses of the underlying Fidelity Central Funds.
The Money Market Central Funds seek preservation of capital and current income and are managed by Fidelity Investments Money Management, Inc. (FIMM), an affiliate of FMR.
A complete unaudited list of holdings for each Fidelity Central Fund is available upon request or at the SEC's web site at www.sec.gov. In addition, the financial statements of the Fidelity Central Funds are available on the SEC's web site or upon request.
3. Significant Accounting Policies.
The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which require management to make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Events or transactions occurring after period end through the date that the financial statements were issued, August 13, 2009, have been evaluated in the preparation of the financial statements. The following summarizes the significant accounting policies of the Fund:
Security Valuation. Investments are valued as of 4:00 p.m. Eastern time on the last calendar day of the period. The Fund uses independent pricing services approved by the Board of Trustees to value its investments. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) establishes a disclosure hierarchy that categorizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to value assets and liabilities at measurement date. These inputs are classified into three levels. Level 1 includes readily available unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 includes observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable either directly or indirectly. Level 3 includes unobservable inputs when market prices are not readily available or reliable. Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers in or out of an investment's assigned level within the hierarchy. The aggregate value by input level, as of June 30, 2009, for the Fund's investments is included at the end of the Fund's Schedule of Investments. Valuation techniques of the Fund's major categories of assets and liabilities as presented in the Schedule of Investments are as follows.
Equity securities, including restricted securities, for which market quotations are readily available, are valued at the last reported sale price or official closing price as reported by an independent pricing service on the primary market or exchange on which they are traded. In the event there were no sales during the day or closing prices are not available, securities are valued at the last quoted bid price. Investments in open-end mutual funds, including the Fidelity Central Funds, are valued at their closing net asset value each business day. Short-term securities with remaining maturities of sixty days or less for which quotations are not readily available are valued at amortized cost, which approximates value.
When current market prices or quotations are not readily available or reliable, valuations may be determined in good faith in accordance with procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees. Factors used in determining value may include significant market or security specific events, changes in interest rates and credit quality, and developments in foreign markets which are monitored by evaluating the performance of ADRs, futures contracts and exchange-traded funds. The frequency with which these procedures are used cannot be predicted and may be utilized to a significant extent. The value of securities used for net asset value (NAV) calculation under these procedures may differ from published prices for the same securities.
Foreign Currency. The Fund uses foreign currency contracts to facilitate transactions in foreign-denominated securities. Losses from these transactions may arise from changes in the value of the foreign currency or if the counterparties do not perform under the contracts' terms.
Foreign-denominated assets, including investment securities, and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate at period end. Purchases and sales of investment securities, income and dividends received and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate in effect on the transaction date.
Semiannual Report
3. Significant Accounting Policies - continued
Foreign Currency - continued
The effects of exchange rate fluctuations on investments are included with the net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investment securities. Other foreign currency transactions resulting in realized and unrealized gain (loss) are disclosed separately.
Investment Transactions and Income. For financial reporting purposes, the Fund's investment holdings and NAV include trades executed through the end of the last business day of the period. The NAV per share for processing shareholder transactions is calculated as of the close of business of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time and includes trades executed through the end of the prior business day. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost and may include proceeds received from litigation. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except for certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Distributions received on securities that represent a return of capital or capital gain are recorded as a reduction of cost of investments and/or as a realized gain. The Fund estimates the components of distributions received that may be considered return of capital distributions or capital gain distributions. Interest income and distributions from the Fidelity Central Funds are accrued as earned. Interest income includes coupon interest and amortization of premium and accretion of discount on debt securities. Investment income is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery of such taxes is uncertain.
Expenses. Most expenses of the trust can be directly attributed to a fund. Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned among each Fund in the trust. Expense estimates are accrued in the period to which they relate and adjustments are made when actual amounts are known.
Income Tax Information and Distributions to Shareholders. Each year, the Fund intends to qualify as a regulated investment company by distributing substantially all of its taxable income and realized gains under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code and filing its U.S. federal tax return. As a result, no provision for income taxes is required. The Fund is subject to the provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainties in Income Taxes (FIN 48). FIN 48 sets forth a minimum threshold for financial statement recognition of the benefit of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. There are no unrecognized tax benefits in the accompanying financial statements. A Fund's federal tax return is subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for a period of three years. Foreign taxes are provided for based on the Fund's understanding of the tax rules and rates that exist in the foreign markets in which it invests.
Distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income dividends and capital gain distributions are declared separately for each class. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles.
Capital accounts within the financial statements are adjusted for permanent book-tax differences. These adjustments have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. Temporary book-tax differences will reverse in a subsequent period.
Book-tax differences are primarily due to foreign currency transactions, passive foreign investment companies (PFIC) and losses deferred due to wash sales and excise tax regulations.
The federal tax cost of investments and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) as of period end were as follows:
Unrealized appreciation | $ 4,246,382 |
Unrealized depreciation | (31,120,710) |
Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) | $ (26,874,328) |
Cost for federal income tax purposes | $ 81,975,056 |
4. Purchases and Sales of Investments.
Purchases and sales of securities, other than short-term securities, aggregated $30,555,485 and $27,764,871, respectively.
5. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates.
Management Fee. FMR and its affiliates provide the Fund with investment management related services for which the Fund pays a monthly management fee. The management fee is the sum of an individual fund fee rate that is based on an annual rate of .30% of the Fund's average net assets and a group fee rate that averaged .27% during the period. The group fee rate is based upon the average net assets of all the mutual funds advised by FMR. The group fee rate decreases as assets under management increase and increases as assets under management decrease. For the period, the total annualized management fee rate was .57% of the Fund's average net assets.

5. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates - continued
Distribution and Service Plan. In accordance with Rule 12b-1 of the 1940 Act, the Fund has adopted separate 12b-1 Plans for each Service Class of shares. Each Service Class pays Fidelity Distributors Corporation (FDC), an affiliate of FMR, a service fee. For the period, the service fee is based on an annual rate of .10% of Service Class' average net assets and .25% of Service Class 2's average net assets. For the period, each class paid FDC the following amounts, all of which were re-allowed to insurance companies for the distribution of shares and providing shareholder support services:
Service Class | $ 489 |
Service Class 2 | 4,870 |
| $ 5,359 |
Transfer Agent Fees. Fidelity Investments Institutional Operations Company, Inc. (FIIOC), an affiliate of FMR, is the Fund's transfer, dividend disbursing, and shareholder servicing agent. FIIOC receives an asset-based fee with respect to each class. Each class (with the exception of Investor Class) pays a transfer agent fee, excluding out of pocket expenses, equal to an annual rate of .07% of average net assets. Investor Class pays a monthly asset-based transfer agent fee of .15% of average net assets. The total transfer agent fees paid by each class to FIIOC, including out of pocket expenses, were as follows:
Initial Class | $ 13,163 |
Service Class | 460 |
Service Class 2 | 2,504 |
Investor Class | 18,608 |
| $ 34,735 |
Accounting Fees. Fidelity Service Company, Inc. (FSC), an affiliate of FMR, maintains the Fund's accounting records. The fee is based on the level of average net assets for the month.
Brokerage Commissions. The Fund placed a portion of its portfolio transactions with brokerage firms which are affiliates of the investment adviser. The commissions paid to these affiliated firms were $1,666 for the period.
6. Committed Line of Credit.
The Fund participates with other funds managed by FMR in a $3.5 billion credit facility (the "line of credit") to be utilized for temporary or emergency purposes to fund shareholder redemptions or for other short-term liquidity purposes. The Fund has agreed to pay commitment fees on its pro-rata portion of the line of credit, which amounted to $163 and is reflected in Miscellaneous Expense on the Statement of Operations. During the period, there were no borrowings on this line of credit.
7. Expense Reductions.
FMR voluntarily agreed to reimburse each class to the extent annual operating expenses exceeded certain levels of average net assets as noted in the table below. Some expenses, for example interest expense, including commitment fees, are excluded from this reimbursement.
The following classes were in reimbursement during the period:
| Expense Limitations | Reimbursement from adviser |
Investor Class | .93% | $ 1,161 |
Many of the brokers with whom FMR places trades on behalf of the Fund provided services to the Fund in addition to trade execution. These services included payments of certain expenses on behalf of the Fund totaling $99 for the period. In addition, through arrangements with the Fund's custodian, credits realized as a result of uninvested cash balances were used to reduce the Fund's expenses. During the period, these credits reduced the Fund's custody expenses by $5.

The Fund's organizational documents provide former and current trustees and officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the Fund. In the normal course of business, the Fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against the Fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.
At the end of the period, FMR or its affiliates were the owners of record of 89% of the total outstanding shares of the Fund.

Semiannual Report
As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including redemption fees, and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (January 1, 2009 to June 30, 2009).
Actual Expenses
The first line of the accompanying table for each class of the Fund provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000.00 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000.00 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line for a class of the Fund under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. The estimate of expenses does not include any fees or other expenses of any variable annuity or variable life insurance product. If they were, the estimate of expenses you paid during the period would be higher, and your ending account value would be lower. In addition, the Fund, as a shareholder in the underlying Fidelity Central Funds, will indirectly bear its pro-rata share of the fees and expenses incurred by the underlying Fidelity Central Funds. These fees and expenses are not included in the Fund's annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimate in the table below.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The second line of the accompanying table for each class of the Fund provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on a Class' actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Class' actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. The estimate of expenses does not include any fees or other expenses of any variable annuity or variable life insurance product. If they were, the estimate of expenses you paid during the period would be higher, and your ending account value would be lower. In addition, the Fund, as a shareholder in the underlying Fidelity Central Funds, will indirectly bear its pro-rata share of the fees and expenses incurred by the underlying Fidelity Central Funds. These fees and expenses are not included in the Fund's annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimate in the table below.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transaction costs. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.
| Annualized Expense Ratio | Beginning Account Value January 1, 2009 | Ending Account Value June 30, 2009 | Expenses Paid During Period* January 1, 2009 to June 30, 2009 |
Initial Class | .84% | | | |
Actual | | $ 1,000.00 | $ 1,447.90 | $ 5.10 |
Hypothetical A | | $ 1,000.00 | $ 1,020.63 | $ 4.21 |
Investor Class | .95% | | | |

A 5% return per year before expenses
* Expenses are equal to each Class' annualized expense ratio, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 181/365 (to reflect the one-half year period).

Notes to Financial Statements
For the period ended June 30, 2009 (Unaudited)
1. Organization.
VIP Technology Portfolio (the Fund) is a non-diversified fund of Variable Insurance Products Fund IV (the trust) and is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares. The trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust. Shares of the Fund may only be purchased by insurance companies for the purpose of funding variable annuity or variable life insurance contracts. The Fund offers the following classes of shares: Initial Class shares and Investor Class shares. All classes have equal rights and voting privileges, except for matters affecting a single class. Investment income, realized and unrealized capital gains and losses, the common expenses of the Fund, and certain fund-level expense reductions, if any, are allocated on a pro-rata basis to each class based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of the Fund. Each class differs with respect to transfer agent fees incurred. Certain expense reductions also differ by class. The Fund's investments in emerging markets can be subject to social, economic, regulatory, and political uncertainties and can be extremely volatile.
2. Investments in Fidelity Central Funds.
The Fund may invest in Fidelity Central Funds, which are open-end investment companies available only to other investment companies and accounts managed by Fidelity Management & Research Company (FMR) and its affiliates. The Fund's Schedule of Investments lists each of the Fidelity Central Funds held as of period end, if any, as an investment of the Fund, but does not include the underlying holdings of each Fidelity Central Fund. As an Investing Fund, the Fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of the expenses of the underlying Fidelity Central Funds.
The Money Market Central Funds seek preservation of capital and current income and are managed by Fidelity Investments Money Management, Inc. (FIMM), an affiliate of FMR.
A complete unaudited list of holdings for each Fidelity Central Fund is available upon request or at the SEC's web site at www.sec.gov. In addition, the financial statements of the Fidelity Central Funds are available on the SEC's web site or upon request.
3. Significant Accounting Policies.
The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which require management to make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Events or transactions occurring after period end through the date that the financial statements were issued, August 10, 2009, have been evaluated in the preparation of the financial statements. The following summarizes the significant accounting policies of the Fund:
Security Valuation. Investments are valued as of 4:00 p.m. Eastern time on the last calendar day of the period. The Fund uses independent pricing services approved by the Board of Trustees to value its investments. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) establishes a disclosure hierarchy that categorizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to value assets and liabilities at measurement date. These inputs are classified into three levels. Level 1 includes readily available unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 includes observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable either directly or indirectly. Level 3 includes unobservable inputs when market prices are not readily available or reliable. Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers in or out of an investment's assigned level within the hierarchy. The aggregate value by input level, as of June 30, 2009, for the Fund's investments is included at the end of the Fund's Schedule of Investments. Valuation techniques of the Fund's major categories of assets and liabilities as presented in the Schedule of Investments are as follows.
Equity securities, including restricted securities, for which market quotations are readily available, are valued at the last reported sale price or official closing price as reported by an independent pricing service on the primary market or exchange on which they are traded. In the event there were no sales during the day or closing prices are not available, securities are valued at the last quoted bid price. Debt securities, including restricted securities, are valued based on quotations received from dealers who make markets in such securities or by independent pricing services. For corporate bonds pricing services generally utilize matrix pricing which considers yield or price of bonds of comparable quality, coupon, maturity and type as well as dealer supplied prices. Investments in open-end mutual funds, including the Fidelity Central Funds, are valued at their closing net asset value each business day. Short-term securities with remaining maturities of sixty days or less for which quotations are not readily available are valued at amortized cost, which approximates value.
When current market prices or quotations are not readily available or reliable, valuations may be determined in good faith in accordance with procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees. Factors used in determining value may include significant market or security specific events, changes in interest rates and credit quality, and developments in foreign markets which are monitored by evaluating the performance of ADRs, futures contracts and exchange-traded funds. The frequency with which these procedures are used cannot be predicted and may be utilized to a significant extent. The value of securities used for net asset value (NAV) calculation under these procedures may differ from published prices for the same securities.
Foreign Currency. The Fund uses foreign currency contracts to facilitate transactions in foreign-denominated securities. Losses from these transactions may arise from changes in the value of the foreign currency or if the counterparties do not perform under the contracts' terms.
Semiannual Report
3. Significant Accounting Policies - continued
Foreign Currency - continued
Foreign-denominated assets, including investment securities, and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate at period end. Purchases and sales of investment securities, income and dividends received and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate in effect on the transaction date.
The effects of exchange rate fluctuations on investments are included with the net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investment securities. Other foreign currency transactions resulting in realized and unrealized gain (loss) are disclosed separately.
Investment Transactions and Income. For financial reporting purposes, the Fund's investment holdings and NAV include trades executed through the end of the last business day of the period. The NAV per share for processing shareholder transactions is calculated as of the close of business of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time and includes trades executed through the end of the prior business day. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost and may include proceeds received from litigation. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except for certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Distributions received on securities that represent a return of capital or capital gain are recorded as a reduction of cost of investments and/or as a realized gain. The Fund estimates the components of distributions received that may be considered return of capital distributions or capital gain distributions. Interest income and distributions from the Fidelity Central Funds are accrued as earned. Large, non-recurring dividends recognized by the Fund are presented separately on the Statement of Operations as "Special Dividends" and the impact of these dividends is presented in the Financial Highlights. Interest income includes coupon interest and amortization of premium and accretion of discount on debt securities. Investment income is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery of such taxes is uncertain.
Expenses. Most expenses of the trust can be directly attributed to a fund. Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned among each Fund in the trust. Expense estimates are accrued in the period to which they relate and adjustments are made when actual amounts are known.
Income Tax Information and Distributions to Shareholders. Each year, the Fund intends to qualify as a regulated investment company by distributing substantially all of its taxable income and realized gains under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code and filing its U.S. federal tax return. As a result, no provision for income taxes is required. The Fund is subject to the provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainties in Income Taxes (FIN 48). FIN 48 sets forth a minimum threshold for financial statement recognition of the benefit of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. There are no unrecognized tax benefits in the accompanying financial statements. A Fund's federal tax return is subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for a period of three years. Foreign taxes are provided for based on the Fund's understanding of the tax rules and rates that exist in the foreign markets in which it invests.
Distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income dividends and capital gain distributions are declared separately for each class. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles.
Capital accounts within the financial statements are adjusted for permanent book-tax differences. These adjustments have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. Temporary book-tax differences will reverse in a subsequent period.
Book-tax differences are primarily due to foreign currency transactions, market discount, and losses deferred due to wash sales and excise tax regulations.
The federal tax cost of investments and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) as of period end were as follows:
Unrealized appreciation | $ 14,539,291 |
Unrealized depreciation | (6,709,338) |
Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) | $ 7,829,953 |
Cost for federal income tax purposes | $ 82,066,873 |
Trading (Redemption) Fees. Shares held less than 60 days are subject to a redemption fee equal to 1% of the proceeds of the redeemed shares. All redemption fees, including any estimated redemption fees paid by FMR, are retained by the Fund and accounted for as an addition to paid in capital.
4. Purchases and Sales of Investments.
Purchases and sales of securities, other than short-term securities, aggregated $75,544,057 and $46,529,560, respectively.

5. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates.
Management Fee. FMR and its affiliates provide the Fund with investment management related services for which the Fund pays a monthly management fee. The management fee is the sum of an individual fund fee rate that is based on an annual rate of .30% of the Fund's average net assets and a group fee rate that averaged .27% during the period. The group fee rate is based upon the average net assets of all the mutual funds advised by FMR. The group fee rate decreases as assets under management increase and increases as assets under management decrease. For the period, the total annualized management fee rate was .56% of the Fund's average net assets.
Transfer Agent Fees. Fidelity Investments Institutional Operations Company, Inc. (FIIOC), an affiliate of FMR, is the Fund's transfer, dividend disbursing, and shareholder servicing agent. FIIOC receives an asset-based fee with respect to each class. Each class (with the exception of Investor Class) pays a transfer agent fee, excluding out of pocket expenses, equal to an annual rate of .07% of average net assets. Investor Class pays a monthly asset-based transfer agent fee of .15% of average net assets.The total transfer agent fees paid by each class to FIIOC, including out of pocket expenses, were as follows:
Initial Class | $ 16,656 |
Investor Class | 19,654 |
| $ 36,310 |
Accounting and Security Lending Fees. Fidelity Service Company, Inc. (FSC), an affiliate of FMR, maintains the Fund's accounting records. The accounting fee is based on the level of average net assets for the month. Under a separate contract, FSC administers the security lending program. The security lending fee is based on the number and duration of lending transactions.
Brokerage Commissions. The Fund placed a portion of its portfolio transactions with brokerage firms which are affiliates of the investment adviser. The commissions paid to these affiliated firms were $2,025 for the period.
6. Committed Line of Credit.
The Fund participates with other funds managed by FMR in a $3.5 billion credit facility (the "line of credit") to be utilized for temporary or emergency purposes to fund shareholder redemptions or for other short-term liquidity purposes. The Fund has agreed to pay commitment fees on its pro-rata portion of the line of credit, which amounted to $127 and is reflected in Miscellaneous Expense on the Statement of Operations. During the period, there were no borrowings on this line of credit.
7. Security Lending.
The Fund lends portfolio securities from time to time in order to earn additional income. On the settlement date of the loan, the Fund receives collateral (in the form of U.S. Treasury obligations, letters of credit and/or cash) against the loaned securities and maintains collateral in an amount not less than 100% of the market value of the loaned securities during the period of the loan. The market value of the loaned securities is determined at the close of business of the Fund and any additional required collateral is delivered to the Fund on the next business day. If the borrower defaults on its obligation to return the securities loaned because of insolvency or other reasons, a fund could experience delays and costs in recovering the securities loaned or in gaining access to the collateral. Any cash collateral received is invested in the Fidelity Securities Lending Cash Central Fund. The value of loaned securities and cash collateral at period end are disclosed on the Fund's Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Security lending income represents the income earned on investing cash collateral, less fees and expenses associated with the loan, plus any premium payments that may be received on the loan of certain types of securities. Security lending income is presented in the Statement of Operations as a component of income from Fidelity Central Funds.
8. Expense Reductions.
Many of the brokers with whom FMR places trades on behalf of the Fund provided services to the Fund in addition to trade execution. These services included payments of certain expenses on behalf of the Fund totaling $1,483 for the period.

11. Other.
The Fund's organizational documents provide former and current trustees and officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the Fund. In the normal course of business, the Fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against the Fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.
At the end of the period, FMR or its affiliates were the owners of record of 100% of the total outstanding shares of the Fund.

Neither the fund nor Fidelity Distributors Corporation is a bank.
Semiannual Report
As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including redemption fees, and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (January 1, 2009 to June 30, 2009).
Actual Expenses
The first line of the accompanying table for each class of the Fund provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000.00 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000.00 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line for a class of the Fund under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. The estimate of expenses does not include any fees or other expenses of any variable annuity or variable life insurance product. If they were, the estimate of expenses you paid during the period would be higher, and your ending account value would be lower. In addition, the Fund, as a shareholder in the underlying Fidelity Central Funds, will indirectly bear its pro-rata share of the fees and expenses incurred by the underlying Fidelity Central Funds. These fees and expenses are not included in the Fund's annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimate in the table below.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The second line of the accompanying table for each class of the Fund provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on a Class' actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Class' actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. The estimate of expenses does not include any fees or other expenses of any variable annuity or variable life insurance product. If they were, the estimate of expenses you paid during the period would be higher, and your ending account value would be lower. In addition, the Fund, as a shareholder in the underlying Fidelity Central Funds, will indirectly bear its pro-rata share of the fees and expenses incurred by the underlying Fidelity Central Funds. These fees and expenses are not included in the Fund's annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimate in the table below.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transaction costs. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.
| Annualized Expense Ratio | Beginning Account Value January 1, 2009 | Ending Account Value June 30, 2009 | Expenses Paid During Period* January 1, 2009 to June 30, 2009 |
Initial Class | 1.00% | | | |

A 5% return per year before expenses
* Expenses are equal to each Class' annualized expense ratio, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 181/365 (to reflect the one-half year period).

Semiannual Report
Notes to Financial Statements
For the period ended June 30, 2009 (Unaudited)
1. Organization.
VIP Telecommunications Portfolio (the Fund) is a non-diversified fund of Variable Insurance Products Fund IV (the trust) and is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares. The trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust. Shares of the Fund may only be purchased by insurance companies for the purpose of funding variable annuity or variable life insurance contracts. The Fund offers the following classes of shares: Initial Class shares and Investor Class shares. All classes have equal rights and voting privileges, except for matters affecting a single class. Investment income, realized and unrealized capital gains and losses, the common expenses of the Fund, and certain fund-level expense reductions, if any, are allocated on a pro-rata basis to each class based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of the Fund. Each class differs with respect to transfer agent fees incurred. Certain expense reductions also differ by class.
2. Investments in Fidelity Central Funds.
The Fund may invest in Fidelity Central Funds, which are open-end investment companies available only to other investment companies and accounts managed by Fidelity Management & Research Company (FMR) and its affiliates. The Fund's Schedule of Investments lists each of the Fidelity Central Funds held as of period end, if any, as an investment of the Fund, but does not include the underlying holdings of each Fidelity Central Fund. As an Investing Fund, the Fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of the expenses of the underlying Fidelity Central Funds.
The Money Market Central Funds seek preservation of capital and current income and are managed by Fidelity Investments Money Management, Inc. (FIMM), an affiliate of FMR.
A complete unaudited list of holdings for each Fidelity Central Fund is available upon request or at the SEC's web site at www.sec.gov. In addition, the financial statements of the Fidelity Central Funds are available on the SEC's web site or upon request.
3. Significant Accounting Policies.
The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which require management to make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Events or transactions occurring after period end through the date that the financial statements were issued, August 13, 2009, have been evaluated in the preparation of the financial statements. The following summarizes the significant accounting policies of the Fund:
Security Valuation. Investments are valued as of 4:00 p.m. Eastern time on the last calendar day of the period. The Fund uses independent pricing services approved by the Board of Trustees to value its investments. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) establishes a disclosure hierarchy that categorizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to value assets and liabilities at measurement date. These inputs are classified into three levels. Level 1 includes readily available unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 includes observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable either directly or indirectly. Level 3 includes unobservable inputs when market prices are not readily available or reliable. Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers in or out of an investment's assigned level within the hierarchy. The aggregate value by input level, as of June 30, 2009, for the Fund's investments, as well as a reconciliation of assets and liabilities for which significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) were used in determining value, is included at the end of the Fund's Schedule of Investments. Valuation techniques of the Fund's major categories of assets and liabilities as presented in the Schedule of Investments are as follows.
Equity securities, including restricted securities, for which market quotations are readily available, are valued at the last reported sale price or official closing price as reported by an independent pricing service on the primary market or exchange on which they are traded. In the event there were no sales during the day or closing prices are not available, securities are valued at the last quoted bid price. Investments in open-end mutual funds, including the Fidelity Central Funds, are valued at their closing net asset value each business day. Short-term securities with remaining maturities of sixty days or less for which quotations are not readily available are valued at amortized cost, which approximates value.
When current market prices or quotations are not readily available or reliable, valuations may be determined in good faith in accordance with procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees. Factors used in determining value may include significant market or security specific events, changes in interest rates and credit quality, and developments in foreign markets which are monitored by evaluating the performance of ADRs, futures contracts and exchange-traded funds. The frequency with which these procedures are used cannot be predicted and may be utilized to a significant extent. The value of securities used for net asset value (NAV) calculation under these procedures may differ from published prices for the same securities.
Foreign Currency. The Fund uses foreign currency contracts to facilitate transactions in foreign-denominated securities. Losses from these transactions may arise from changes in the value of the foreign currency or if the counterparties do not perform under the contracts' terms.
Foreign-denominated assets, including investment securities, and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate at period end. Purchases and sales of investment securities, income and dividends received and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate in effect on the transaction date.

3. Significant Accounting Policies - continued
Foreign Currency - continued
The effects of exchange rate fluctuations on investments are included with the net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investment securities. Other foreign currency transactions resulting in realized and unrealized gain (loss) are disclosed separately.
Investment Transactions and Income. For financial reporting purposes, the Fund's investment holdings and NAV include trades executed through the end of the last business day of the period. The NAV per share for processing shareholder transactions is calculated as of the close of business of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time and includes trades executed through the end of the prior business day. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except for certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Distributions received on securities that represent a return of capital or capital gain are recorded as a reduction of cost of investments and/or as a realized gain. The Fund estimates the components of distributions received that may be considered return of capital distributions or capital gain distributions. Interest income and distributions from the Fidelity Central Funds are accrued as earned. Interest income includes coupon interest and amortization of premium and accretion of discount on debt securities. Investment income is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery of such taxes is uncertain.
Expenses. Most expenses of the trust can be directly attributed to a fund. Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned among each Fund in the trust. Expense estimates are accrued in the period to which they relate and adjustments are made when actual amounts are known.
Income Tax Information and Distributions to Shareholders. Each year, the Fund intends to qualify as a regulated investment company by distributing substantially all of its taxable income and realized gains under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code and filing its U.S. federal tax return. As a result, no provision for income taxes is required. The Fund is subject to the provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainties in Income Taxes (FIN 48). FIN 48 sets forth a minimum threshold for financial statement recognition of the benefit of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. There are no unrecognized tax benefits in the accompanying financial statements. A Fund's federal tax return is subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for a period of three years. Foreign taxes are provided for based on the Fund's understanding of the tax rules and rates that exist in the foreign markets in which it invests.
Distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income dividends and capital gain distributions are declared separately for each class. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles.
Capital accounts within the financial statements are adjusted for permanent book-tax differences. These adjustments have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. Temporary book-tax differences will reverse in a subsequent period.
Book-tax differences are primarily due to foreign currency transactions, certain foreign taxes, capital loss carryforwards and losses deferred due to wash sales and excise tax regulations.
The federal tax cost of investments and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) as of period end were as follows:
Unrealized appreciation | $ 674,517 |
Unrealized depreciation | (1,198,792) |
Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) | $ (524,275) |
Cost for federal income tax purposes | $ 8,453,321 |
Trading (Redemption) Fees. Shares held less than 60 days are subject to a redemption fee equal to 1% of the proceeds of the redeemed shares. All redemption fees, including any estimated redemption fees paid by FMR, are retained by the Fund and accounted for as an addition to paid in capital.
4. Purchases and Sales of Investments.
Purchases and sales of securities, other than short-term securities, aggregated $9,637,282 and $6,038,924, respectively.
5. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates.
Management Fee. FMR and its affiliates provide the Fund with investment management related services for which the Fund pays a monthly management fee. The management fee is the sum of an individual fund fee rate that is based on an annual rate of .30% of the Fund's average net assets and a group fee rate that averaged .27% during the period. The group fee rate is based upon the average net assets of all the mutual funds advised by FMR. The group fee rate decreases as assets under management increase and increases as assets under management decrease. For the period, the total annualized management fee rate was .56% of the Fund's average net assets.

The Fund has agreed to pay commitment fees on its pro-rata portion of the line of credit, which amounted to $10 and is reflected in Miscellaneous Expense on the Statement of Operations. During the period, there were no borrowings on this line of credit.
7. Expense Reductions.
FMR voluntarily agreed to reimburse each class to the extent annual operating expenses exceeded certain levels of average net assets as noted in the table below. Some expenses, for example interest expense, including commitment fees, are excluded from this reimbursement.

The Fund's organizational documents provide former and current trustees and officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the Fund. In the normal course of business, the Fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against the Fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.
At the end of the period, FMR or its affiliates were the owners of record of 100% of the total outstanding shares of the Fund.

Neither the fund nor Fidelity Distributors Corporation is a bank.
Semiannual Report
As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including redemption fees, and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (January 1, 2009 to June 30, 2009).
Actual Expenses
The first line of the accompanying table for each class of the Fund provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000.00 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000.00 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line for a class of the Fund under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. The estimate of expenses does not include any fees or other expenses of any variable annuity or variable life insurance product. If they were, the estimate of expenses you paid during the period would be higher, and your ending account value would be lower. In addition, the Fund, as a shareholder in the underlying Fidelity Central Funds, will indirectly bear its pro-rata share of the fees and expenses incurred by the underlying Fidelity Central Funds. These fees and expenses are not included in the Fund's annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimate in the table below.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The second line of the accompanying table for each class of the Fund provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on a Class' actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Class' actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. The estimate of expenses does not include any fees or other expenses of any variable annuity or variable life insurance product. If they were, the estimate of expenses you paid during the period would be higher, and your ending account value would be lower. In addition, the Fund, as a shareholder in the underlying Fidelity Central Funds, will indirectly bear its pro-rata share of the fees and expenses incurred by the underlying Fidelity Central Funds. These fees and expenses are not included in the Fund's annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimate in the table below.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transaction costs. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.
| Annualized Expense Ratio | Beginning Account Value January 1, 2009 | Ending Account Value June 30, 2009 | Expenses Paid During Period* January 1, 2009 to June 30, 2009 |
Initial Class | .82% | | | |
Actual | | $ 1,000.00 | $ 993.90 | $ 4.05 |
Hypothetical A | | $ 1,000.00 | $ 1,020.73 | $ 4.11 |
Investor Class | .93% | | | |
Actual | | $ 1,000.00 | $ 992.60 | $ 4.59 |
Hypothetical A | | $ 1,000.00 | $ 1,020.18 | $ 4.66 |
A 5% return per year before expenses
* Expenses are equal to each Class' annualized expense ratio, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 181/365 (to reflect the one-half year period).

Semiannual Report
Notes to Financial Statements
For the period ended June 30, 2009 (Unaudited)
1. Organization.
VIP Utilities Portfolio (the Fund) is a non-diversified fund of Variable Insurance Products Fund IV (the trust) and is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares. The trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust. Shares of the Fund may only be purchased by insurance companies for the purpose of funding variable annuity or variable life insurance contracts. The Fund offers the following classes of shares: Initial Class shares and Investor Class shares. All classes have equal rights and voting privileges, except for matters affecting a single class. Investment income, realized and unrealized capital gains and losses, the common expenses of the Fund, and certain fund-level expense reductions, if any, are allocated on a pro-rata basis to each class based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of the Fund. Each class differs with respect to transfer agent fees incurred. Certain expense reductions also differ by class.
2. Investments in Fidelity Central Funds.
The Fund may invest in Fidelity Central Funds, which are open-end investment companies available only to other investment companies and accounts managed by Fidelity Management & Research Company (FMR) and its affiliates. The Fund's Schedule of Investments lists each of the Fidelity Central Funds held as of period end, if any, as an investment of the Fund, but does not include the underlying holdings of each Fidelity Central Fund. As an Investing Fund, the Fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of the expenses of the underlying Fidelity Central Funds.
The Money Market Central Funds seek preservation of capital and current income and are managed by Fidelity Investments Money Management, Inc. (FIMM), an affiliate of FMR.
A complete unaudited list of holdings for each Fidelity Central Fund is available upon request or at the SEC's web site at www.sec.gov. In addition, the financial statements of the Fidelity Central Funds are available on the SEC's web site or upon request.
3. Significant Accounting Policies.
The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which require management to make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Events or transactions occurring after period end through the date that the financial statements were issued, August 13, 2009, have been evaluated in the preparation of the financial statements. The following summarizes the significant accounting policies of the Fund:
Security Valuation. Investments are valued as of 4:00 p.m. Eastern time on the last calendar day of the period. The Fund uses independent pricing services approved by the Board of Trustees to value its investments. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) establishes a disclosure hierarchy that categorizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to value assets and liabilities at measurement date. These inputs are classified into three levels. Level 1 includes readily available unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 includes observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable either directly or indirectly. Level 3 includes unobservable inputs when market prices are not readily available or reliable. Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers in or out of an investment's assigned level within the hierarchy. The aggregate value by input level, as of June 30, 2009, for the Fund's investments is included at the end of the Fund's Schedule of Investments. Valuation techniques of the Fund's major categories of assets and liabilities as presented in the Schedule of Investments are as follows.
Equity securities, including restricted securities, for which market quotations are readily available, are valued at the last reported sale price or official closing price as reported by an independent pricing service on the primary market or exchange on which they are traded. In the event there were no sales during the day or closing prices are not available, securities are valued at the last quoted bid price. Investments in open-end mutual funds, including the Fidelity Central Funds, are valued at their closing net asset value each business day. Short-term securities with remaining maturities of sixty days or less for which quotations are not readily available are valued at amortized cost, which approximates value.
When current market prices or quotations are not readily available or reliable, valuations may be determined in good faith in accordance with procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees. Factors used in determining value may include significant market or security specific events, changes in interest rates and credit quality, and developments in foreign markets which are monitored by evaluating the performance of ADRs, futures contracts and exchange-traded funds. The frequency with which these procedures are used cannot be predicted and may be utilized to a significant extent. The value of securities used for net asset value (NAV) calculation under these procedures may differ from published prices for the same securities.
Foreign Currency. The Fund uses foreign currency contracts to facilitate transactions in foreign-denominated securities. Losses from these transactions may arise from changes in the value of the foreign currency or if the counterparties do not perform under the contracts' terms.
Foreign-denominated assets, including investment securities, and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate at period end. Purchases and sales of investment securities, income and dividends received and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate in effect on the transaction date.

3. Significant Accounting Policies - continued
Foreign Currency - continued
The effects of exchange rate fluctuations on investments are included with the net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investment securities. Other foreign currency transactions resulting in realized and unrealized gain (loss) are disclosed separately.
Investment Transactions and Income. For financial reporting purposes, the Fund's investment holdings and NAV include trades executed through the end of the last business day of the period. The NAV per share for processing shareholder transactions is calculated as of the close of business of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time and includes trades executed through the end of the prior business day. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost and may include proceeds received from litigation. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except for certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Distributions received on securities that represent a return of capital or capital gain are recorded as a reduction of cost of investments and/or as a realized gain. The Fund estimates the components of distributions received that may be considered return of capital distributions or capital gain distributions. Interest income and distributions from the Fidelity Central Funds are accrued as earned. Interest income includes coupon interest and amortization of premium and accretion of discount on debt securities. Investment income is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery of such taxes is uncertain.
Expenses. Most expenses of the trust can be directly attributed to a fund. Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned among each Fund in the trust. Expense estimates are accrued in the period to which they relate and adjustments are made when actual amounts are known.
Income Tax Information and Distributions to Shareholders. Each year, the Fund intends to qualify as a regulated investment company by distributing substantially all of its taxable income and realized gains under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code and filing its U.S. federal tax return. As a result, no provision for income taxes is required. The Fund is subject to the provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainties in Income Taxes (FIN 48). FIN 48 sets forth a minimum threshold for financial statement recognition of the benefit of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. There are no unrecognized tax benefits in the accompanying financial statements. A Fund's federal tax return is subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for a period of three years. Foreign taxes are provided for based on the Fund's understanding of the tax rules and rates that exist in the foreign markets in which it invests.
Distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income dividends and capital gain distributions are declared separately for each class. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles.
Capital accounts within the financial statements are adjusted for permanent book-tax differences. These adjustments have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. Temporary book-tax differences will reverse in a subsequent period.
Book-tax differences are primarily due to foreign currency transactions and losses deferred due to wash sales and excise tax regulations.
The federal tax cost of investments and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) as of period end were as follows:
Unrealized appreciation | $ 1,858,477 |
Unrealized depreciation | (5,207,253) |
Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) | $ (3,348,776) |
Cost for federal income tax purposes | $ 41,139,945 |
Trading (Redemption) Fees. Shares held less than 60 days are subject to a redemption fee equal to 1% of the proceeds of the redeemed shares. All redemption fees, including any estimated redemption fees paid by FMR, are retained by the Fund and accounted for as an addition to paid in capital.
4. Purchases and Sales of Investments.
Purchases and sales of securities, other than short-term securities, aggregated $55,539,517 and $64,144,774, respectively.
5. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates.
Management Fee. FMR and its affiliates provide the Fund with investment management related services for which the Fund pays a monthly management fee. The management fee is the sum of an individual fund fee rate that is based on an annual rate of .30% of the Fund's average net assets and a group fee rate that averaged .27% during the period. The group fee rate is based upon the average net assets of all the mutual funds advised by FMR. The group fee rate decreases as assets under management increase and increases as assets under management decrease. For the period, the total annualized management fee rate was .57% of the Fund's average net assets.
Semiannual Report
5. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates - continued
Transfer Agent Fees. Fidelity Investments Institutional Operations Company, Inc. (FIIOC), an affiliate of FMR, is the Fund's transfer, dividend disbursing, and shareholder servicing agent. FIIOC receives an asset-based fee with respect to each class. Each class (with the exception of Investor Class) pays a transfer agent fee, excluding out of pocket expenses, equal to an annual rate of .07% of average net assets. Investor Class pays a monthly asset-based transfer agent fee of .15% of average net assets. The total transfer agent fees paid by each class to FIIOC, including out of pocket expenses, were as follows:
Initial Class | $ 13,109 |
Investor Class | 16,761 |
| $ 29,870 |
Accounting and Security Lending Fees. Fidelity Service Company, Inc. (FSC), an affiliate of FMR, maintains the Fund's accounting records. The accounting fee is based on the level of average net assets for the month. Under a separate contract, FSC administers the security lending program. The security lending fee is based on the number and duration of lending transactions.
Brokerage Commissions. The Fund placed a portion of its portfolio transactions with brokerage firms which are affiliates of the investment adviser. The commissions paid to these affiliated firms were $1,610 for the period.
6. Committed Line of Credit.
The Fund participates with other funds managed by FMR in a $3.5 billion credit facility (the "line of credit") to be utilized for temporary or emergency purposes to fund shareholder redemptions or for other short-term liquidity purposes. The Fund has agreed to pay commitment fees on its pro-rata portion of the line of credit, which amounted to $146 and is reflected in Miscellaneous Expense on the Statement of Operations. During the period, there were no borrowings on this line of credit.
7. Security Lending.
The Fund lends portfolio securities from time to time in order to earn additional income. On the settlement date of the loan, the Fund receives collateral (in the form of U.S. Treasury obligations, letters of credit and/or cash) against the loaned securities and maintains collateral in an amount not less than 100% of the market value of the loaned securities during the period of the loan. The market value of the loaned securities is determined at the close of business of the Fund and any additional required collateral is delivered to the Fund on the next business day. If the borrower defaults on its obligation to return the securities loaned because of insolvency or other reasons, a fund could experience delays and costs in recovering the securities loaned or in gaining access to the collateral. Any cash collateral received is invested in the Fidelity Securities Lending Cash Central Fund. At period end, there were no security loans outstanding. Security lending income represents the income earned on investing cash collateral, less fees and expenses associated with the loan, plus any premium payments that may be received on the loan of certain types of securities. Security lending income is presented in the Statement of Operations as a component of income from Fidelity Central Funds. Net income from lending portfolio securities during the period amounted to $1,026.
8. Expense Reductions.
Many of the brokers with whom FMR places trades on behalf of the Fund provided services to the Fund in addition to trade execution. These services included payments of certain expenses on behalf of the Fund totaling $177 for the period
9. Distributions to Shareholders.
Distributions to shareholders of each class were as follows:
| Six months ended June 30, 2009 | Year ended December 31, 2008 |

11. Other.
The Fund's organizational documents provide former and current trustees and officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the Fund. In the normal course of business, the Fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against the Fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.
At the end of the period, FMR or its affiliates were the owners of record of 100% of the total outstanding shares of the Fund.

NOT FDIC INSURED · MAY LOSE VALUE · NO BANK GUARANTEE
Neither the fund nor Fidelity Distributors Corporation is a bank.
Semiannual Report
As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period (January 1, 2009 to June 30, 2009).
Actual Expenses
The first line of the accompanying table for each class of the Fund provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000.00 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000.00 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line for a class of the Fund under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During Period" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. The estimate of expenses does not include any fees or other expenses of any variable annuity or variable life insurance product. If they were, the estimate of expenses you paid during the period would be higher, and your ending account value would be lower. In addition, the Fund, as a shareholder in the underlying Fidelity Central Funds, will indirectly bear its pro-rata share of the fees and expenses incurred by the underlying Fidelity Central Funds. These fees and expenses are not included in the Fund's annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimate in the table below.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The second line of the accompanying table for each class of the Fund provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on a Class' actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Class' actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. The estimate of expenses does not include any fees or other expenses of any variable annuity or variable life insurance product. If they were, the estimate of expenses you paid during the period would be higher, and your ending account value would be lower. In addition, the Fund, as a shareholder in the underlying Fidelity Central Funds, will indirectly bear its pro-rata share of the fees and expenses incurred by the underlying Fidelity Central Funds. These fees and expenses are not included in the Fund's annualized expense ratio used to calculate the expense estimate in the table below.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transaction costs. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds.
| Annualized Expense Ratio | Beginning Account Value January 1, 2009 | Ending Account Value June 30, 2009 | Expenses Paid During Period* January 1, 2009 to June 30, 2009 |

For the period ended June 30, 2009 (Unaudited)
1. Organization.
VIP Value Leaders Portfolio (the Fund) is a fund of Variable Insurance Products Fund IV (the trust) and is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares. The trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust. Shares of the Fund may only be purchased by insurance companies for the purpose of funding variable annuity or variable life insurance contracts. The Fund offers the following classes of shares: Initial Class shares, Service Class shares, Service Class 2 shares, and Investor Class shares. All classes have equal rights and voting privileges, except for matters affecting a single class. Investment income, realized and unrealized capital gains and losses, the common expenses of the Fund, and certain fund-level expense reductions, if any, are allocated on a pro-rata basis to each class based on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of the Fund. Each class differs with respect to transfer agent and distribution and service plan fees incurred. Certain expense reductions also differ by class.
2. Investments in Fidelity Central Funds.
The Fund may invest in Fidelity Central Funds, which are open-end investment companies available only to other investment companies and accounts managed by Fidelity Management & Research Company (FMR) and its affiliates. The Fund's Schedule of Investments lists each of the Fidelity Central Funds held as of period end, if any, as an investment of the Fund, but does not include the underlying holdings of each Fidelity Central Fund. As an Investing Fund, the Fund indirectly bears its proportionate share of the expenses of the underlying Fidelity Central Funds.
The Money Market Central Funds seek preservation of capital and current income and are managed by Fidelity Investments Money Management, Inc. (FIMM), an affiliate of FMR.
A complete unaudited list of holdings for each Fidelity Central Fund is available upon request or at the SEC's web site at www.sec.gov. In addition, the financial statements of the Fidelity Central Funds are available on the SEC's web site or upon request.
3. Significant Accounting Policies.
The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which require management to make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Events or transactions occurring after period end through the date that the financial statements were issued, August 13, 2009, have been evaluated in the preparation of the financial statements. The following summarizes the significant accounting policies of the Fund:
Security Valuation. Investments are valued as of 4:00 p.m. Eastern time on the last calendar day of the period. The Fund uses independent pricing services approved by the Board of Trustees to value its investments. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) establishes a disclosure hierarchy that categorizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to value assets and liabilities at measurement date. These inputs are classified into three levels. Level 1 includes readily available unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 includes observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable either directly or indirectly. Level 3 includes unobservable inputs when market prices are not readily available or reliable. Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers in or out of an investment's assigned level within the hierarchy. The aggregate value by input level, as of June 30, 2009, for the Fund's investments is included at the end of the Fund's Schedule of Investments. Valuation techniques of the Fund's major categories of assets and liabilities as presented in the Schedule of Investments are as follows.
Equity securities, including restricted securities, for which market quotations are readily available, are valued at the last reported sale price or official closing price as reported by an independent pricing service on the primary market or exchange on which they are traded. In the event there were no sales during the day or closing prices are not available, securities are valued at the last quoted bid price. Debt securities, including restricted securities, are valued based on quotations received from dealers who make markets in such securities or by independent pricing services. For corporate bonds, pricing services generally utilize matrix pricing which considers yield or price of bonds of comparable quality, coupon, maturity and type as well as dealer supplied prices. Investments in open-end mutual funds, including the Fidelity Central Funds, are valued at their closing net asset value each business day. Short-term securities with remaining maturities of sixty days or less for which quotations are not readily available are valued at amortized cost, which approximates value.
When current market prices or quotations are not readily available or reliable, valuations may be determined in good faith in accordance with procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees. Factors used in determining value may include significant market or security specific events, changes in interest rates and credit quality, and developments in foreign markets which are monitored by evaluating the performance of ADRs, futures contracts and exchange-traded funds. The frequency with which these procedures are used cannot be predicted and may be utilized to a significant extent. The value of securities used for net asset value (NAV) calculation under these procedures may differ from published prices for the same securities.
Foreign Currency. The Fund uses foreign currency contracts to facilitate transactions in foreign-denominated securities. Losses from these transactions may arise from changes in the value of the foreign currency or if the counterparties do not perform under the contracts' terms.

3. Significant Accounting Policies - continued
Foreign Currency - continued
Foreign-denominated assets, including investment securities, and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate at period end. Purchases and sales of investment securities, income and dividends received and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate in effect on the transaction date.
The effects of exchange rate fluctuations on investments are included with the net realized and unrealized gain (loss) on investment securities. Other foreign currency transactions resulting in realized and unrealized gain (loss) are disclosed separately.
Investment Transactions and Income. For financial reporting purposes, the Fund's investment holdings and NAV include trades executed through the end of the last business day of the period. The NAV per share for processing shareholder transactions is calculated as of the close of business of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time and includes trades executed through the end of the prior business day. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost and may include proceeds received from litigation. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except for certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date may have passed, which are recorded as soon as the Fund is informed of the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Distributions received on securities that represent a return of capital or capital gain are recorded as a reduction of cost of investments and/or as a realized gain. The Fund estimates the components of distributions received that may be considered return of capital distributions or capital gain distributions. Interest income and distributions from the Fidelity Central Funds are accrued as earned. Interest income includes coupon interest and amortization of premium and accretion of discount on debt securities. Investment income is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery of such taxes is uncertain.
Expenses. Most expenses of the trust can be directly attributed to a fund. Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned among each Fund in the trust. Expense estimates are accrued in the period to which they relate and adjustments are made when actual amounts are known.
Income Tax Information and Distributions to Shareholders. Each year, the Fund intends to qualify as a regulated investment company by distributing substantially all of its taxable income and realized gains under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code and filing its U.S. federal tax return. As a result, no provision for income taxes is required. The Fund is subject to the provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainties in Income Taxes (FIN 48). FIN 48 sets forth a minimum threshold for financial statement recognition of the benefit of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. There are no unrecognized tax benefits in the accompanying financial statements. A Fund's federal tax return is subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for a period of three years. Foreign taxes are provided for based on the Fund's understanding of the tax rules and rates that exist in the foreign markets in which it invests.
Distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income dividends and capital gain distributions are declared separately for each class. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles.
Capital accounts within the financial statements are adjusted for permanent book-tax differences. These adjustments have no impact on net assets or the results of operations. Temporary book-tax differences will reverse in a subsequent period.
Book-tax differences are primarily due to foreign currency transactions, partnerships, capital loss carryforwards, losses deferred due to wash sales and excise tax regulations.
The federal tax cost of investments and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) as of period end were as follows:
Unrealized appreciation | $ 1,917,500 |
Unrealized depreciation | (15,014,870) |
Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) | $ (13,097,370) |
Cost for federal income tax purposes | $ 48,053,796 |

Information regarding restricted securities is included at the end of the Fund's Schedule of Investments.

6. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates.
Management Fee. FMR and its affiliates provide the Fund with investment management related services for which the Fund pays a monthly management fee. The management fee is the sum of an individual fund fee rate that is based on an annual rate of .30% of the Fund's average net assets and a group fee rate that averaged .27% during the period. The group fee rate is based upon the average net assets of all the mutual funds advised by FMR. The group fee rate decreases as assets under management increase and increases as assets under management decrease. For the period, the total annualized management fee rate was .57% of the Fund's average net assets.
Distribution and Service Plan. In accordance with Rule 12b-1 of the 1940 Act, the Fund has adopted separate 12b-1 Plans for each Service Class of shares. Each Service Class pays Fidelity Distributors Corporation (FDC), an affiliate of FMR, a service fee. For the period, the service fee is based on an annual rate of .10% of Service Class' average net assets and .25% of Service Class 2's average net assets.
For the period, each class paid FDC the following amounts, all of which were re-allowed to insurance companies for the distribution of shares and providing shareholder support services:
Service Class | $ 389 |
Service Class 2 | 2,253 |
| $ 2,642 |
Transfer Agent Fees. Fidelity Investments Institutional Operations Company, Inc. (FIIOC), an affiliate of FMR, is the Fund's transfer, dividend disbursing, and shareholder servicing agent. FIIOC receives an asset-based fee with respect to each class. Each class (with the exception of Investor Class) pays a transfer agent fee, excluding out of pocket expenses, equal to an annual rate of .07% of average net assets. Investor Class pays a monthly asset-based transfer agent fee of .15% of average net assets. The total transfer agent fees paid by each class to FIIOC, including out of pocket expenses, were as follows:
Initial Class | $ 8,188 |
Service Class | 371 |
Service Class 2 | 808 |
Investor Class | 20,934 |
| $ 30,301 |
Accounting and Security Lending Fees. Fidelity Service Company, Inc. (FSC), an affiliate of FMR, maintains the Fund's accounting records. The accounting fee is based on the level of average net assets for the month. Under a separate contract, FSC administers the security lending program. The security lending fee is based on the number and duration of lending transactions.
Brokerage Commissions. The Fund placed a portion of its portfolio transactions with brokerage firms which are affiliates of the investment adviser. The commissions paid to these affiliated firms were $2,493 for the period.
7. Committed Line of Credit.
The Fund participates with other funds managed by FMR in a $3.5 billion credit facility (the "line of credit") to be utilized for temporary or emergency purposes to fund shareholder redemptions or for other short-term liquidity purposes. The Fund has agreed to pay commitment fees on its pro-rata portion of the line of credit, which amounted to $131 and is reflected in Miscellaneous Expense on the Statement of Operations. During the period, there were no borrowings on this line of credit.
8. Security Lending.
The Fund lends portfolio securities from time to time in order to earn additional income. On the settlement date of the loan, the Fund receives collateral (in the form of U.S. Treasury obligations, letters of credit and/or cash) against the loaned securities and maintains collateral in an amount not less than 100% of the market value of the loaned securities during the period of the loan. The market value of the loaned securities is determined at the close of business of the Fund and any additional required collateral is delivered to the Fund on the next business day. If the borrower defaults on its obligation to return the securities loaned because of insolvency or other reasons, a fund could experience delays and costs in recovering the securities loaned or in gaining access to the collateral. Any cash collateral received is invested in the Fidelity Securities Lending Cash Central Fund. The value of loaned securities and cash collateral at period end are disclosed on the Fund's Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Security lending income represents the income earned on investing cash collateral, less fees and expenses associated with the loan, plus any premium payments that may be received on the loan of certain types of securities. Security lending income is presented in the Statement of Operations as a component of income from Fidelity Central Funds. Net income from lending portfolio securities during the period amounted to $832.

12. Other.
The Fund's organizational documents provide former and current trustees and officers with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the Fund. In the normal course of business, the Fund may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against the Fund. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.
At the end of the period, FMR or its affiliates were owners of record of 96% of the total outstanding shares of the Fund.
