SIGNIFICANT
ACCOUNTING
POLICIES
Basis
of
Preparation
The fund
is
an
investment
company
and
follows
accounting
and
reporting
guidance
in
the
Financial
Accounting
Standards
Board
(FASB)
Accounting
Standards
Codification
Topic
946
(ASC
946).
The
accompanying
financial
statements
were
prepared
in
accordance
with
accounting
principles
generally
accepted
in
the
United
States
of
America
(GAAP),
including,
but
not
limited
to,
ASC
946.
GAAP
requires
the
use
of
estimates
made
by
management.
Management
believes
that
estimates
and
valuations
are
appropriate;
however,
actual
results
may
differ
from
those
estimates,
and
the
valuations
reflected
in
the
accompanying
financial
statements
may
differ
from
the
value
ultimately
realized
upon
sale
or
maturity.
Investment
Transactions,
Investment
Income,
and
Distributions
Investment
transactions
are
accounted
for
on
the
trade
date
basis.
Income
and
expenses
are
recorded
on
the
accrual
basis.
Realized
gains
and
losses
are
reported
on
the
identified
cost
basis. Premiums
and
discounts
on
debt
securities
are
amortized
for
financial
reporting
purposes. Income
tax-related
interest
and
penalties,
if
incurred,
are
recorded
as
income
tax
expense. Dividends
received
from other
investment
companies are
reflected
as
dividend income;
capital
gain
distributions
are
reflected
as
realized
gain/loss. Dividend
income and
capital
gain
distributions
are
recorded
on
the
ex-dividend
date. Distributions
from
REITs
are
initially
recorded
as
dividend
income
and,
to
the
extent
such
represent
a

Capital
Transactions
Each
investor’s
interest
in
the
net
assets
of the
fund
is
represented
by
fund
shares. The
fund’s
net
asset
value
(NAV)
per
share
is
computed
at
the
close
of
the
New
York
Stock
Exchange
(NYSE),
normally
4
p.m.
ET,
each
day
the
NYSE
is
open
for
business.
However,
the
NAV
per
share
may
be
calculated
at
a
time
other
than
the
normal
close
of
the
NYSE
if
trading
on
the
NYSE
is
restricted,
if
the
NYSE
closes
earlier,
or
as
may
be
permitted
by
the
SEC.
Purchases
and
redemptions
of
fund
shares
are
transacted
at
the
next-computed
NAV
per
share,
after
receipt
of
the
transaction
order
by
T.
Rowe
Price
Associates,
Inc.,
or
its
agents.
Indemnification
In
the
normal
course
of
business, the
fund
may
provide
indemnification
in
connection
with
its
officers
and
directors,
service
providers,
and/or
private
company
investments. The
fund’s
maximum
exposure
under
these
arrangements
is
unknown;
however,
the
risk
of
material
loss
is
currently
considered
to
be
remote.

VALUATION
Fair
Value
The
fund’s
financial
instruments
are
valued
at
the
close
of
the
NYSE
and
are
reported
at
fair
value,
which
GAAP
defines
as
the
price
that
would
be
received
to
sell
an
asset
or
paid
to
transfer
a
liability
in
an
orderly
transaction
between
market
participants
at
the
measurement
date. The fund’s
Board
of
Directors
(the
Board)
has
designated
T.
Rowe
Price
Associates,
Inc.
as
the
fund’s
valuation
designee
(Valuation
Designee).
Subject
to
oversight
by
the
Board,
the
Valuation
Designee
performs
the
following
functions
in
performing
fair
value
determinations:
assesses
and
manages
valuation
T.
ROWE
PRICE
Capital
Appreciation
and
Income
Fund
risks;
establishes
and
applies
fair
value
methodologies;
tests
fair
value
methodologies;
and
evaluates
pricing
vendors
and
pricing
agents.
The
duties
and
responsibilities
of
the
Valuation
Designee
are
performed
by
its
Valuation
Committee. The
Valuation
Designee provides
periodic
reporting
to
the
Board
on
valuation
matters.
Various
valuation
techniques
and
inputs
are
used
to
determine
the
fair
value
of
financial
instruments.
GAAP
establishes
the
following
fair
value
hierarchy
that
categorizes
the
inputs
used
to
measure
fair
value:
Level
1
–
quoted
prices
(unadjusted)
in
active
markets
for
identical
financial
instruments
that
the
fund
can
access
at
the
reporting
date
Level
2
–
inputs
other
than
Level
1
quoted
prices
that
are
observable,
either
directly
or
indirectly
(including,
but
not
limited
to,
quoted
prices
for
similar
financial
instruments
in
active
markets,
quoted
prices
for
identical
or
similar
financial
instruments
in
inactive
markets,
interest
rates
and
yield
curves,
implied
volatilities,
and
credit
spreads)
Level
3
–
unobservable
inputs
(including
the Valuation
Designee’s assumptions
in
determining
fair
value)
Observable
inputs
are
developed
using
market
data,
such
as
publicly
available
information
about
actual
events
or
transactions,
and
reflect
the
assumptions
that
market
participants
would
use
to
price
the
financial
instrument.
Unobservable
inputs
are
those
for
which
market
data
are
not
available
and
are
developed
using
the
best
information
available
about
the
assumptions
that
market
participants
would
use
to
price
the
financial
instrument.
GAAP
requires
valuation
techniques
to
maximize
the
use
of
relevant
observable
inputs
and
minimize
the
use
of
unobservable
inputs.
When
multiple
inputs
are
used
to
derive
fair
value,
the
financial
instrument
is
assigned
to
the
level
within
the
fair
value
hierarchy
based
on
the
lowest-level
input
that
is
significant
to
the
fair
value
of
the
financial
instrument.
Input
levels
are
not
necessarily
an
indication
of
the
risk
or
liquidity
associated
with
financial
instruments
at
that
level
but
rather
the
degree
of
judgment
used
in
determining
those
values.
Valuation
Techniques
Debt
securities
generally
are
traded
in
the over-the-
counter
(OTC)
market
and
are
valued
at
prices
furnished
by
independent
pricing
services
or
by
broker
dealers
who
make
markets
in
such
securities.
When
valuing
securities,
the
independent
pricing
services
consider
factors
such
as,
but
not
limited
to,
the
yield
or
price
of
bonds
of
comparable
quality,
coupon,
maturity,
and
type,
as
well
as
prices
quoted
by
dealers
who

in
such
securities.

The
Valuation
Designee
has
adopted
methodologies
for
determining
the
fair
value
of
investments
for
which
market
quotations
are
not
readily
available
or
deemed
unreliable,
including
the
use
of
other
pricing
sources.
Factors
used
in
determining
fair
value
vary
by
type
of
investment
and
may
include
market
or
investment
specific
considerations.
The
Valuation
Designee typically
will
afford
greatest
weight
to
actual
prices
in
arm’s
length
transactions,
to
the
extent
they
represent
orderly
transactions
between
market
participants,
transaction
information
can
be
reliably
obtained,
and
prices
are
deemed
representative
of
fair
value.
However,
the
Valuation
Designee may
also
consider
other
valuation
methods
such
as
market-based
valuation
multiples;
a
discount
or
premium
from
market
value
of
a
similar,
freely
traded
security
of
the
same
issuer;
discounted
cash
flows;
yield
to
maturity;
or
some
combination.
Fair
value
determinations
are
reviewed
on
a
regular
basis.
Because
any
fair
value
determination
involves
a
significant
amount
of
judgment,
there
is
a
degree
of
subjectivity
inherent
in
such
pricing
decisions. Fair
value
prices
determined
by
the
Valuation
Designee could
differ
from
those
of
other
market
participants,
and
it
is
possible
that
the
fair
value
determined
for
a
security
may
be
materially
different
from
the
value
that
could
be
realized
upon
the

DERIVATIVE
INSTRUMENTS
During
the
six
months ended
June
30,
2024,
the
fund
invested
in
derivative
instruments.
As
defined
by
GAAP,
a
derivative
is
a
financial
instrument
whose
value
is
derived
from
an
underlying
security
price,
foreign
exchange
rate,
interest
rate,
index
of
prices
or
rates,
or
other
variable;
it
requires
little
or
no
initial
investment
and
permits
or
requires
net
settlement.
The
fund
invests
in
derivatives
only
if
the
expected
risks
and
rewards
are
consistent
with
its
investment
objectives,
policies,
and
overall
risk
profile,
as
described
in
its
prospectus
and
Statement
of
Additional
Information.
The
fund
may
use
derivatives
for
a
variety
of
purposes
and
may
use
them
to
establish
both
long
and
short
positions
within
the
fund’s
portfolio.
Potential
uses
include
to
hedge
against
declines
in
principal
value,
increase
yield,
invest
in
an
asset
with
greater
efficiency
and
at
a
lower
cost
than
is
possible
through
direct
investment,
to
enhance
return,
or
to
adjust
portfolio
duration
and
credit
exposure.
The
risks
associated
with
the
use
of
derivatives
are
different
from,
and
potentially
much
greater
than,
the
risks
associated
with
investing
directly
in
the
instruments
on
which
the
derivatives
are
based.

Fund
The
fund
values
its
derivatives
at
fair
value
and
recognizes
changes
in
fair
value
currently
in
its
results
of
operations.
Accordingly,
the
fund
does
not
follow
hedge
accounting,
even
for
derivatives
employed
as
economic
hedges.
Generally,
the
fund
accounts
for
its
derivatives
on
a
gross
basis.
It
does
not
offset
the
fair
value
of
derivative
liabilities
against
the
fair
value
of
derivative
assets
on
its
financial
statements,
nor
does
it
offset
the
fair

against

a
counterparty
(bilateral
derivatives),
and
thereby
may
expose
the
fund
to
counterparty
risk.
To
mitigate
this
risk,
the
fund
has
entered
into
master
netting
arrangements
(MNAs)
with
certain
counterparties
that
permit
net
settlement
under
specified
conditions
and,
for
certain
counterparties,
also
require
the
exchange
of
collateral
to
cover
mark-to-market
exposure.
MNAs
may
be
in
the
form
of
International
Swaps
and
Derivatives
Association
master
agreements
(ISDAs)
or
foreign
exchange
letter
agreements
(FX
letters).
MNAs
govern
the
ability
to
offset
amounts
the
fund
owes
a
counterparty
against
amounts
the
counterparty
owes
the
fund
(net
settlement).
Both
ISDAs
and
FX
letters
generally
allow
termination
of
transactions
and
net
settlement
upon
the
occurrence
of
contractually
specified
events,
such
as
failure
to
pay
or
bankruptcy.
In
addition,
ISDAs
specify
other
events,
the
occurrence
of
which
would
allow
one
of
the
parties
to
terminate.
For
example,
a
downgrade
in
credit
rating
of
a
counterparty
below
a
specified
rating
would
allow
the
fund
to
terminate,
while
a
decline
in
the
fund’s
net
assets
of
more
than
a
specified
percentage
would
allow
the
counterparty
to
terminate.
Upon
termination,
all
transactions
with
that
counterparty
would
be
liquidated
and
a
net
termination
amount
determined.
ISDAs
typically
include
collateral
agreements
whereas
FX
letters
do
not.
Collateral
requirements
are
determined
daily
based
on
the
net
aggregate
unrealized
gain
or
loss
on
all
bilateral
derivatives
with
each
counterparty,
subject
to
minimum
transfer
amounts
that
typically
range
from
$100,000
to
$250,000.
Any
additional
collateral
required
due
to
changes
in
security
values
is
typically
transferred
the
next
business
day.
Collateral may
be
in
the
form
of
cash
or
debt
securities
issued
by
the
U.S.
government
or
related
agencies,
although
other
securities
may
be
used
depending
on
the
terms
outlined
in
the
applicable
MNA.
Cash
posted
by
the
fund
is
reflected
as
cash
deposits
in
the
accompanying
financial
statements
and
generally
is
restricted
from
withdrawal
by
the
fund;
securities
posted
by
the
fund
are
so
noted
in
the
accompanying
Portfolio
of
Investments;
both
remain
in
the
fund’s
assets.
Collateral
pledged
by
counterparties
is
not
included
in
the
fund’s
assets
because
the
fund
does
not
obtain
effective
control
over
those
assets.
For
bilateral
derivatives,
collateral
posted
or
received
by
the
fund
is
held
in
a
segregated
account
at
the
fund’s
custodian.
While
typically
not

in
the
same
manner
as
equity
or
fixed
income
securities,
OTC
and

Options
The
fund
is
subject
to equity
price
risk in
the
normal
course
of
pursuing
its
investment
objectives
and
uses
options
to
help
manage
such
risk.
The
fund
may
use
options
to
manage
exposure
to
security
prices,
interest
rates,
foreign
currencies,
and
credit
quality;
as
an
efficient
means
of
adjusting
exposure
to
all
or
a
part
of
a
target
market;
to
enhance
income;
as
a
cash
management
tool;
or
to
adjust
credit
exposure.
The
fund
may
buy
or
sell
options
that
can
be
settled
either
directly
with
the
counterparty
(OTC
option)
or
through
a
central
clearinghouse
(exchange-traded
option).
Options
are
included
in
net
assets
at
fair
value,
options
purchased
are
included
in
Investments
in
Securities,
and
options
written
are
separately
reflected
as
a
liability
on
the
accompanying
Statement
of
Assets
and
Liabilities.
Premiums
on
unexercised,
expired
options
are
recorded
as
realized
gains
or
losses
on
the
accompanying
Statement
of
Operations;
premiums
on
exercised
options
are
recorded
as
an
adjustment
to
the
proceeds
from
the
sale
or
cost
of
the
purchase.
The
difference
between
the
premium
and
the
amount
received
or
paid
in
a
closing
transaction
is
also
treated
as
realized
gain
or
loss
on
the
accompanying
Statement
of
Operations.
In
return
for
a
premium
paid,
call
and
put
options
give
the
holder
the
right,
but
not
the
obligation,
to
purchase
or
sell,
respectively,
a
security
at
a
specified
exercise
price. Risks related
to
the
use
of
options
include
possible
illiquidity
of
the
options
markets;
trading
restrictions
imposed
by
an
exchange
or
counterparty;
possible
failure
of
counterparties
to
meet
the
terms
of
the
agreements;
movements
in
the
underlying
asset
values
and,
for
options
written,
the
potential
for
losses
to
exceed
any
premium
received
by
the
fund.
During
the
six
months ended
June
30,
2024,
the
volume
of
the
fund’s
activity
in
options,
based
on
underlying
notional
amounts,
was
generally
between
0%
and
2%
of
net
assets.

OTHER
INVESTMENT
TRANSACTIONS
Consistent
with
its
investment
objective, the
fund
engages
in
the
following
practices
to
manage
exposure
to
certain
risks
and/or
to
enhance
performance.
The
investment
objective,
policies,
program,
and
risk
factors
of the
fund
are
described
more
fully
in the
fund’s prospectus
and
Statement
of
Additional
Information.
T.
ROWE
PRICE
Capital
Appreciation
and
Income
Fund
Noninvestment-Grade
Debt
The
fund
invests,
either
directly
or
through
its
investment
in
other
T.
Rowe
Price
funds,
in
noninvestment-grade
debt,
including
“high
yield”
or
“junk”
bonds
or
leveraged
loans.
Noninvestment-grade
debt
issuers
are
more
likely
to
suffer
an
adverse
change
in
financial
condition
that
would
result
in
the
inability
to
meet
a
financial
obligation.
The
noninvestment-
grade
debt
market
may
experience
sudden
and
sharp
price
swings
due
to
a
variety
of
factors
that
may
decrease
the
ability
of
issuers
to
make
principal
and
interest
payments
and
adversely
affect
the
liquidity
or
value,
or
both,
of
such
securities.
Accordingly,
securities
issued
by
such
companies
carry
a
higher
risk
of
default
and
should
be
considered
speculative.
Restricted
Securities
The
fund
invests
in
securities
that
are
subject
to
legal
or
contractual
restrictions
on
resale.
Prompt
sale
of
such
securities
at
an
acceptable
price
may
be
difficult
and
may
involve
substantial
delays
and
additional
costs.
Bank
Loans
The
fund
invests
in
bank
loans,
which
represent
an
interest
in
amounts
owed
by
a
borrower
to
a
syndicate
of
lenders.
Bank
loans
are
generally
noninvestment
grade
and
often
involve
borrowers
whose
financial
condition
is
highly
leveraged.
The
fund
may
invest
in
fixed
and
floating
rate
loans,
which
may
include
senior
floating
rate
loans;
secured
and
unsecured
loans,
second
lien
or
more
junior
loans;
and
bridge
loans
or
bridge
facilities.
Certain
bank
loans
may
be
revolvers
which
are
a
form
of
senior
bank
debt,
where
the
borrower
can
draw
down
the
credit
of
the
revolver
when
it
needs
cash
and
repays
the
credit
when
the
borrower
has
excess
cash.
Certain
loans
may
be
“covenant-lite”
loans,
which
means
the
loans
contain
fewer
maintenance
covenants
than
other
loans
(in
some
cases,
none)
and
do
not
include
terms
which
allow
the
lender
to
monitor
the
performance
of
the
borrower
and
declare
a
default
if
certain
criteria
are
breached.
As
a
result
of
these
risks,
the
fund’s
exposure
to
losses
may
be
increased.
Bank
loans
may
be
in
the
form
of
either
assignments
or
participations.
A
loan
assignment
transfers
all
legal,
beneficial,
and
economic
rights
to
the
buyer,
and
transfer
typically
requires
consent
of
both
the
borrower
and
agent.
In
contrast,
a
loan
participation
generally
entitles
the
buyer
to
receive
the
cash
flows
from
principal,
interest,
and
any
fee
payments
on
a
portion
of
a
loan;
however,
the
seller
continues
to
hold
legal
title
to
that
portion
of
the
loan.
As
a
result,
the
buyer
of
a
loan
participation
generally
has
no
direct
recourse
against
the
borrower
and
is
exposed
to
credit
risk
of
both
the
borrower
and
seller
of
the
participation.
T.
ROWE
PRICE
Capital
Appreciation
and
Income
Fund
Bank
loans
often
have
extended
settlement
periods,
generally
may
be
repaid
at
any
time
at
the
option
of
the
borrower,
and
may
require
additional
principal
to
be
funded
at
the
borrowers’
discretion
at
a
later
date
(e.g.
unfunded
commitments
and
revolving
debt
instruments).
Until
settlement,
the
fund
maintains
liquid
assets
sufficient
to
settle
its
unfunded
loan
commitments.
The
fund
reflects
both
the
funded
portion
of
a
bank
loan
as
well
as
its
unfunded
commitment
in
the
Portfolio
of
Investments.
However,
if
a
credit
agreement
provides
no
initial
funding
of
a
tranche,
and
funding
of
the
full
commitment
at
a
future
date(s)
is
at
the
borrower’s
discretion
and
considered
uncertain,
a
loan
is
reflected
in
the
Portfolio
of
Investments
only
if,
and
only
to
the
extent
that,
the
fund
has
actually
settled
a
funding
commitment.
Other
Purchases
and
sales
of
portfolio
securities
other
than
in-kind

if
any,
short-term and
U.S.

FEDERAL
INCOME
TAXES
Generally,
no
provision
for
federal

taxes
is
required

APPROVAL
OF
INVESTMENT
MANAGEMENT
AGREEMENT
AND
SUBADVISORY
AGREEMENT
Each
year,
the
fund’s
Board
of
Directors
(Board)
considers
the
continuation
of
the
investment
management
agreement
(Advisory
Contract)
between
the
fund
and
its
investment
adviser,
T.
Rowe
Price
Associates,
Inc.
(Adviser),
as
well
as
the
investment
subadvisory
agreement
(Subadvisory
Contract)
that
the
Adviser
has
entered
into
with
T.
Rowe
Price
Investment
Management,
Inc.
(Subadviser)
on
behalf
of
the
fund.
In
that
regard,
at
a
meeting
held
on
March
11–12,
2024
(Meeting),
the
Board,
including
all
of
the
fund’s
independent
directors
present
in
person
at
the
Meeting,
approved
the
continuation
of
the
fund’s
Advisory
Contract
and
Subadvisory
Contract.
At
the
Meeting,
the
Board
considered
the
factors
and
reached
the
conclusions
described
below
relating
to
the
selection
of
the
Adviser
and
Subadviser
and
the
approval
of
the
Advisory
Contract
and
Subadvisory
Contract.
The
independent
directors
were
assisted
in
their
evaluation
of
the
Advisory
Contract
and
Subadvisory
Contract
by
independent
legal
counsel
from
whom
they
received
separate
legal
advice
and
with
whom
they
met
separately.
In
providing
information
to
the
Board,
the
Adviser
was
guided
by
a
detailed
set
of
requests
for
information
submitted
by
independent
legal
counsel
on
behalf
of
the
independent
directors.
In
considering
and
approving
the
continuation
of
the
Advisory
Contract
and
Subadvisory
Contract,
the
Board
considered
the
information
it
believed
was
relevant,
including,
but
not
limited
to,
the
information
discussed
below.
The
Board
considered
not
only
the
specific
information
presented
in
connection
with
the
Meeting,
but
also
the
knowledge
gained
over
time
through
interaction
with
the
Adviser
and
Subadviser
about
various
topics.
The
Board
also
considered
that
the
Subadviser
has
its
own
investment
platform
and
investment
management
leadership,
and
the
Adviser
and
Subadviser
have
implemented
information
barriers
restricting
the
sharing
of
investment
information
and
voting
activity.
The
Board
meets
regularly
and,
at
each
of
its
meetings,
covers
an
extensive
agenda
of
topics
and
materials
and
considers
factors
that
are
relevant
to
its
annual
consideration
of
the
renewal
of
the
T.
Rowe
Price
funds’
advisory
contracts,
including
performance
and
the
services
and
support
provided
to
the
funds
and
their
shareholders.
Services
Provided
by
the
Adviser
and
Subadviser
The
Board
considered
the
nature,
quality,
and
extent
of
the
services
provided
to
the
fund
by
the
Adviser
and
Subadviser.
These
services
included,
but
were
not
limited
to,
directing
the
fund’s
investments
in
accordance
with
its
investment
program
and
the
overall
management
of
the
fund’s
portfolio,
as
well
as
a
variety
of
related
activities
such
as
financial,
investment
operations,
and
administrative
services;
compliance;
maintaining
the
fund’s
records
and
registrations;
and
shareholder
communications.
However,
the
Board
noted
that
there
are
information
barriers
between
investment
personnel
of
the
Adviser
and
Subadviser
that
restrict
the
sharing
of
certain
information,
such
as
investment
research,
trading,
and
proxy
T.
ROWE
PRICE
Capital
Appreciation
and
Income
Fund
voting.
The
Board
also
reviewed
the
background
and
experience
of
the
Adviser’s
and
Subadviser’s
senior
management
teams
and
investment
personnel
involved
in
the
management
of
the
fund,
as
well
as
the
Adviser’s
compliance
record.
The
Board
concluded
that
the
information
it
considered
with
respect
to
the
nature,
quality,
and
extent
of
the
services
provided
by
the
Adviser
and
Subadviser,
as
well
as
the
other
factors
considered
at
the
Meeting,
supported
the
Board’s
approval
of
the
continuation
of
the
Advisory
Contract
and
Subadvisory
Contract.
Investment
Performance
of
the
Fund
The
fund
only
recently
incepted
in
November
2023,
so
the
fund’s
relative
performance
was
not
evaluated
at
the
Meeting.
Costs,
Benefits,
Profits,
and
Economies
of
Scale
The
Board
reviewed
detailed
information
regarding
the
revenues
received
by
the
Adviser
under
the
Advisory
Contract
and
other
direct
and
indirect
benefits
that
the
Adviser
(and
its
affiliates,
including
the
Subadviser)
may
have
realized
from
its
relationship
with
the
fund.
In
considering
soft-dollar
arrangements
pursuant
to
which
research
may
be
received
from
broker-dealers
that
execute
the
fund’s
portfolio
transactions,
the
Board
noted
that
during
2023
the
Adviser
paid
the
costs
of
research
services
for
all
client
accounts
that
it
advises,
including
the
T.
Rowe
Price
funds.
However,
effective
January
1,
2024,
the
Adviser
will
begin
using
brokerage
commissions
in
connection
with
certain
T.
Rowe
Price
funds’
securities
transactions
to
pay
for
research
when
permissible.
The
Board
received
information
on
the
estimated
costs
incurred
and
profits
realized
by
the
Adviser
from
managing
the
T.
Rowe
Price
funds
but
did
not
review
information
regarding
profits
realized
from
managing
the
fund
in
particular
because
the
fund
had
recently
incepted.
Under
the
Advisory
Contract,
the
fund
pays
a
fee
to
the
Adviser
for
investment
management
services
composed
of
two
components—a
group
fee
rate
based
on
the
combined
average
net
assets
of
most
of
the
T.
Rowe
Price
funds
(including
the
fund)
that
declines
at
certain
asset
levels
and
an
individual
fund
fee
rate
based
on
the
fund’s
average
daily
net
assets—and
the
fund
pays
its
own
expenses
of
operations.
Under
the
Subadvisory
Contract,
the
Adviser
may
pay
the
Subadviser
up
to
60%
of
the
advisory
fees
that
the
Adviser
receives
from
the
fund.
The
group
fee
rate
decreases
as
total
T.
Rowe
Price
fund
assets
grow,
which
reduces
the
management
fee
rate
for
any
fund
that
has
a
group
fee
component
to
its
management
fee,
and
reflects
that
certain
resources
utilized
to
operate
the
fund
are
shared
with
other
T.
Rowe
Price
funds,
thus
allowing
shareholders
of
those
funds
to
share
potential
economies
of
scale.
The
fund’s
individual
fund
fee
contains
a
breakpoint
that
reduces
the
individual
fund
fee
rate
once
the
fund’s
assets
reach
a
certain
level
and
provides
additional
opportunities
for
sharing
potential
economies
of
scale.
APPROVAL
OF
INVESTMENT
MANAGEMENT
AGREEMENT
AND
SUBADVISORY
AGREEMENT
(continued)
T.
ROWE
PRICE
Capital
Appreciation
and
Income
Fund
The
fund’s
shareholders
also
benefit
from
potential
future
economies
of
scale
through
a
decline
in
certain
operating
expenses
as
the
fund
grows
in
size.
However,
the
fund
is
also
subject
to
contractual
expense
limitations
that
require
the
Adviser
to
waive
its
fees
and/or
bear
any
expenses
that
would
otherwise
cause
the
expenses
of
a
share
class
of
the
fund
to
exceed
a
certain
percentage
based
on
the
class’s
net
assets.
The
expense
limitations
protect
shareholders
from
relatively
high
expenses
until
the
fund
reaches
greater
scale
and
mitigate
the
potential
for
an
increase
in
operating
expenses
above
a
certain
level
that
could
impact
shareholders.
Fees
and
Expenses
The
Board
was
not
provided
with
data
for
peer
groups
compiled
by
Broadridge
since
the
fund
incepted
in
November
2023,
and
Broadridge
prepares
such
information
as
of
September
30,
2023.
However,
in
connection
with
its
approval
of
the
initial
Advisory
Contract,
the
Board
reviewed
comparisons
of
the
fund’s
proposed
fee
structure
relative
to
similarly
managed
competitor
funds
and
T.
Rowe
Price
funds
and,
on
the
basis
of
the
information
provided
and
the
factors
considered,
the
Board
concluded
that
the
fee
structure
was
reasonable
and
appropriate.
Approval
of
the
Advisory
Contract
and
Subadvisory
Contract
As
noted,
the
Board
approved
the
continuation
of
the
Advisory
Contract
and
Subadvisory
Contract.
No
single
factor
was
considered
in
isolation
or
to
be
determinative
to
the
decision.
Rather,
the
Board
concluded,
in
light
of
a
weighting
and
balancing
of
all
factors
considered,
that
it
was
in
the
best
interests
of
the
fund
and
its
shareholders
for
the
Board
to
approve
the
continuation
of
the
Advisory
Contract
and
Subadvisory
Contract
(including
the
fees
to
be
charged
for
services
thereunder).
